Under the leadership of Bai Qi, 30,000 elite Qin troops quickly crossed the river and soon arrived not far from the Zhao army's camp.
"Enemy attack!"
A hysterical voice echoed throughout the camp.
Zhao Jun's reaction was no slower than that of Qin Jun. Torches were lit one after another, and countless soldiers rushed out of the camp with weapons in hand.
"Qiang!"
Bai Qi looked forward with stern eyes, raised the long sword in his hand, mobilized the power of the entire army, and slashed forward violently. The terrifying sword light of more than a hundred meters long seemed to split the entire world into two, and the earth was as bright as day.
At the moment when the sword light was about to fall, a bright sword light rushed out of Zhao Jun's camp like a dragon coming out of the sea, and collided fiercely with Bai Qi's terrifying sword light.
"boom!"
Zhao Jun's camp was instantly torn into pieces. The violent energy fluctuations centered on the collision point and raged crazily in all directions, destroying everything in its path.
"If you hadn't wasted twenty years, maybe I might not be your match." Bai Qi looked at the direction where the sword light dissipated and said slowly.
In the open space after the camp disappeared, Le Yi stepped back several steps, his face turning pale.
"Master, are you okay?" Chu Qiong supported Le Yi and asked worriedly.
"It's okay." Le Yi shook his head, looking a little lonely: "After all, it was a waste of twenty years, alas."
"Command the entire army to prepare to meet the enemy." Le Yi ordered.
…
"Bai Qi is attacking, it's time for us to set off."
Zhao Kuo looked at the war clouds rising in the direction of Zhao Jun's camp, stretched out his hand, and the Xu Lin Formation enveloped the entire army. The army gradually blended into the surrounding environment, and it was impossible to distinguish it unless you looked carefully.
The three most elite armies of the Three Jin Dynasties: Zhao Feiqi, Wei Wuzu, and strong crossbowmen, led by Zhao Kuo and Tian Dan, slowly moved southward along the river.
The men held their heads and the horses wrapped their hooves without making any sound. In order to avoid slipping, all the soldiers' shoes were tied with straw ropes.
The army turned west at the junction of the river and the Weishui River, and rushed quickly toward the west of the river on the ice.
"Commander, Qin Army scouts were spotted ahead." Yan Ju reported.
Did Bai Qi really notice this defense loophole? Zhao Kuo frowned and asked, "Can it be bypassed?"
"The scouts here are not as dense as other places, but it is still a bit difficult to get around." Yan Ju said.
After all, this is an army of fifteen thousand, not just one or two people. As long as the Qin army is not blind, they can see it.
"You can check to see if there are any scouts south of the Wei River." Tian Dan reminded.
"Nuo." Yan Ju personally went to explore the south bank of the Weishui River. Within a moment, he came back: "There is only one beacon tower and a few scouts on the south bank of the Weishui River."
"Get rid of it quickly and don't get discovered." Zhao Kuo ordered.
"No." Yan Ju's eyes flashed with excitement.
"Let everyone be careful. Don't stand together and hold your weapons horizontally. If they fall, they may get stuck." Zhao Kuo reminded, "Let's get to the shore first, and then go south."
The ice on the shore is much thicker than in the center, making it safer.
After getting rid of the Qin army's scouts, the army quickly crossed the river and came to the location of Tongguan in later generations. However, Tongguan had not been built at this time because Hangu Pass to the east was still functioning.
After crossing the river, the march speed immediately increased. Zhao Fei rode in front to clear the way, leaving no one alive wherever he passed. Wei Wu soldiers and strong crossbowmen followed closely behind, and they arrived at Yinjin in a short time.
.
"Attack with force, don't hold back." Zhao Kuo ordered.
Yin Jin is just a small town, and almost all the defenders have been transferred to the front line to resist the three Jins. In addition, it is Mao hour, and most of the people are sleeping.
The coalition forces captured Yinjin without any effort, and then set off to the west...
…
Xianyang, Qin Wangji is in a good mood these days. Not only did a lot of money and food be seized during the last nationwide inspection, but the reputation of the royal family among the common people has greatly improved, and there are even voices praising the King of Qin.
A lot of money and food were confiscated from the houses, especially Jingyang Jun. As one of the top nobles in the Qin State, his family property was enough to support an army of 50,000 in fighting for half a year.
He was also very satisfied with Wang Sun Yiren's performance. Although he had been somewhat neglected in the Zhao Kingdom over the years, with a little training, he might not be able to become a wise king. However, Yiren's closeness to the Chu people made him a little unhappy.
The power of the Chu clan in the Qin State was very large, and it was powerful enough to influence the dethronement of the King of Qin. At that time, King Ji of Qin would not have been able to reach this position if it had not been for the support of King Wuling of Zhao.
Even so, in the past few decades, the power was almost controlled by the Queen Mother Xuan and Ranghou Wei Ran.
It was only after he deposed the Four Nobles that he finally suppressed them. If the future monarch gets close to the Chu people, great disaster will inevitably be left behind.
Qin Wangji decided to find an opportunity to give some advice to the foreigner.
"The king is in trouble, the king is in trouble, the three Jin coalition forces have reached Weinan." At this time, Qin Yue rushed in from outside the palace in a panic.
"What!" King Qin Ji suddenly jumped up from the throne, his eyes widened and his face was full of disbelief.
"Say it again." Qin Wangji asked sharply.
"Your Majesty, the three Jin coalition forces have reached Weinan, it's true." Qin Yue knelt on the ground and cried bitterly.
Qin Wangji instantly felt that the sky was shattering and the earth was shattering. Weinan was only a hundred miles away from Xianyang. With Zhao Feiqi's speed, he could hit Xianyang at any time!
"Where is Mr. Wu'an?" Qin Wangji had veins popping up on his forehead, and his voice seemed to pop out from between his teeth.
"Mr. Wu An...Mr. Wu An is still in Hexi." Qin Yue said.
"He was in Hexi. How did the Three Jin Dynasties reach Weinan?" Qin Wangji was extremely angry.
"Subordinate... I don't know either..." Qin Yue lowered his head.
"Go and call Marquis Ying over." Qin Wangji said in a deep voice.
There was no need for Qin Wangji to send someone to notify him. Fan Ju had already received the news and arrived at the palace just in time.
"Your Majesty, Weinan has been captured." Fan Ju said the first thing he said when they met without any politeness or even a salute.
"I just learned that we are about to invite the Prime Minister to discuss it." Qin Wangji has calmed down. Anger is useless at this time. He must find a way to solve it.
"At this time... we can only ask for peace." Fan Ju leaned over and said.
Seek peace!
Qin Wangji clenched his fists tightly, his eyes filled with unwillingness.
He seemed to go back thirty-five years ago, when Kuang Zhang led the five armies to attack Qin, and finally broke through Hangu Pass, and Qin was forced to sue for peace.
Shame!
shame.
After a while, Qin Wangji unclenched his fist and said in a hoarse voice: "Who should I send to sue for peace?"
"I will go to Weinan in person." Fan Ju said.
"Thank you for your hard work. As long as the conditions are not too harsh, I can agree to it." Qin Wangji slumped on the table like a deflated ball.
"Your Majesty, please take care of yourself." Fan Ju said worriedly.
These days, King Qin is obviously aging much faster than before.
"Don't worry, I won't be defeated so easily." Qin Wangji said.
The Qin Dynasty has been a country for five hundred years. It has gone through many ups and downs and endured many humiliations.
However, those enemies who brought him humiliation have long since disappeared. Only Qin remains standing and has become the most powerful country in the world.
For a country, temporary humiliation is nothing.
The important thing is to work hard after enduring humiliation!
"Then I will retire first." Fan Ju said.
"Wait, let the prince and the prince accompany you. Tell them to remember the shame of today." Qin Wangji said.
