Outside Yangzhai City, Lin Ze was sitting cross-legged on a bed of clouds. It seemed like he was concentrating with his eyes closed, but in fact, he was monitoring the goings-on in Yangzhai City through his powerful spiritual sense.
It is said that heavenly beings are not allowed to take action at will, otherwise their luck will be damaged. If Lin Ze doesn't take action, there is no problem in being a humanoid radar.
Below the cloud bed is the 20,000-strong Western Qin army in neat formation, ready to launch an attack at any time.
The 20,000 troops were specially arranged by Lin Ze. Once he found signs of a large-scale escape of the Han army in the city, he immediately ordered the army to capture the city and seize the Han army's safe haven.
If the Han army abandons the city and flees, Lin Ze will order the Western Qin cavalry wandering outside Yangdi City to launch a two-sided attack, trying to trap the Han army to death in Yangdi City.
As long as the Han army does not flee, Lin Ze will not suffer any losses. When the 50,000 Western Qin soldiers in the camp are finished recharging their strength, they can also go out to break the city and kill the enemy.
While waiting, Lin Ze also arranged for a dozen Western Qin soldiers with naturally loud voices to persuade them to surrender outside the city in order to shake the morale of the Han army.
"Generals of the Han army in the city, your commander-in-chief Jiang Shang is timid and afraid of death and escaped from the battle. Are you still willing to sacrifice your life for him?"
"Brothers of the Han army, your generals have all run away. Think of your parents, wives and children at home. Surrender as soon as possible to save your lives."
"Listen to the Han troops in the city. Your Majesty has something to say. I will give you half an hour to think about it. After half an hour, if you don't leave the city and surrender, you will be shot without mercy."
Words like these were spoken continuously from the mouths of these loud-voiced soldiers, impacting the ears of the Han troops on the city wall.
On the city wall, a dozen Han generals stood supporting the wall, each with complicated expressions, wondering what they were thinking.
Listening to the humiliating words outside the city, the young man couldn't help but said angrily: "It's really too noisy. Come here, bring me a bow. I'm going to teach them a lesson."
After receiving the order, the soldiers of the Han army did not dare to neglect and quickly presented an ox-horn bow and a pot of arrows.
The young man took the horn bow, naturally pulled out an arrow and put it on it, stretched the bow string, adjusted the angle, and was ready to release the arrow at any time.
Before the young man could lock his eyes on the Western Qin soldier who was shouting, a broad hand stretched out and grasped the arrow tightly.
The young man narrowed his pupils, looked at his palm, and asked with confusion on his face: "General He Yi, what does this mean?"
The Han general who was called He Yi asked: "What does General Zhao Ping want to do?"
The young general Zhao Ping suppressed his anger and patiently replied: "The soldiers of the Western Qin Dynasty are too rampant. I wanted to send them a few arrows to give them a taste of their power, but General He Yi, why did you stop me?"
Han general He Yi stepped forward and held Zhao Ping's right hand that drew the bow string, and said with a solemn expression: "I just don't want to see you make mistakes."
Han general Zhao Ping was stunned when he heard this, and asked with a puzzled face: "General He Yi, can you speak directly?"
Before He Yi could speak, another Han general next to him said: "Old He means that you should not act rashly, so as not to harm everyone."
Zhao Ping's face became more confused: "How can I harm everyone?"
He Yi said with an indifferent expression: "If you shoot the soldiers sent by Western Qin to recruit them, it is very easy for Western Qin to misunderstand that we will not surrender until death. Once the city is broken, the Western Qin army will think of this and will definitely kill us all."
.”
When Zhao Ping heard this, he suddenly understood and laughed angrily: "As generals of the Han Kingdom, you don't want to serve the King of Han with your body. You always think of surrendering to save your family's life and glory. I am ashamed to be associated with you."
"What's the point? Just let go. If you want to surrender, you can throw yourself in. I will be loyal to the country of Han and the king of Han and will never change my life."
However, He Yi didn't seem to hear it. He was holding the feather arrow in his right hand, and his left hand was tightly holding Zhao Ping's right hand used to draw the bow, motionless.
Zhao Ping felt helpless and had no choice but to pull the bow and arrow towards him, trying to regain the right to use the horn bow.
He Yi then increased his strength and refused to give in.
There was a "pop" sound, and the bow and arrow broke into two sections under the struggle of He Yi and Zhao Ping.
Zhao Ping was trembling with anger, and his sixth-grade aura suddenly erupted, and he said angrily: "The army of the Western Qin Dynasty is pressing down on the border, and all you know is internal strife. I swear to be incompatible with you today."
Huang Mu, who was arranging soldiers to defend, sensed the movement and hurriedly rushed to separate the two people. He said with a headache on his face: "Can't you just calm down?"
Zhao Ping pointed at He Yi and said: "General Huang is here just in time. Help me capture this spy together. He wants to surrender to Western Qin."
He Yi looked calm and asked: "Even if I want to surrender to Western Qin, what does it have to do with you? What's more, ask how many of my colleagues think so?"
"Compared with sticking to the city and waiting for reinforcements, or taking the risk of abandoning the city and escaping, I think this is the most accurate and safest way."
Zhao Ping said angrily: "General Huang, listen, what are these words?"
He Yi just sneered, walked away a few steps, distanced himself from Zhao Ping, and then said loudly: "Those who accept surrender to save their lives will stand here. Those who think it is appropriate to defend the city and die in service to the Han Kingdom will stand in front of Zhao Ping."
Brush, lala, most of the Han generals on the city wall stood beside He Yi. Some of them did not move, as if they were still weighing the pros and cons, but there was no one standing in front of Zhao Ping.
Zhao Ping was so angry that he once wanted to draw a knife and kill someone.
Lin Ze, whose spiritual sense enveloped the entire Yangzhai City, could see the actions of the Han generals on the city wall with a look of amusement on his face.
The establishment of the Han Dynasty was too short and it had not yet cultivated a certain number of loyal ministers. This situation is normal.
Just when Lin Ze was watching with great interest and guessing when the Han army would surrender, his face suddenly changed slightly, he stood up from the cloud bed, bowed slightly and said, "Lin Ze, the Taoist palace, has met the Confucian sage."
As soon as Lin Ze finished speaking, a majestic river of righteousness fell from Jiutian into Yangzhai City.
At the same time, the figure of the Confucian saint slowly appeared in the air, and said with a smile: "Young friend Lin Ze, there is no need to be polite."
Lin Ze asked along the way: "I wonder what the Confucian saint's purpose is here?"
The Confucian Sage said warmly: "I heard about the war between the Western Qin Dynasty and the Han Kingdom here, so I came here to see if there are gods and humans who violate the agreement between me and the Taoist Sage and take action against the common people."
"Little friend Lin Ze, you don't have to worry about me. Attack the city when it's time to attack it. I will never interfere."
Lin Ze immediately rolled his eyes, I believe you, what are you doing here if you don't interfere? Are you really here to travel by yourself?
From Lin Ze's point of view, it was as if he was fighting with a neighbor's kid. The neighbor's dad suddenly appeared and said, "When kids fight, adults don't interfere. You can fight as you like. Don't worry about me. I won't take sides."
If a fight really breaks out, it's okay if the neighbor's kid doesn't suffer. Once he does, the neighbor might jump up and slap you, and then tell you not to slap you in the face during the fight.
The current situation made Lin Ze, who was preparing to conquer the city in one fell swoop, very passive. He could neither fight nor retreat.
