Chapter 217: When encountering an enemy, you must draw your sword. When we meet on a narrow road, the brave one wins!
At the same time as Ying Zheng looked east, Ying Chengxuan was standing at the top of Anling City, his eyes fixed on the south.
Outside Anling City, 350,000 Chu troops have set up camp, and a large flag with the word "xiang" fluttering in the wind.
The continuous military camps were endless, and Ying Chengyu felt a little dizzy as he looked at them.
So many people!
After Ying Chengyu's death, a large number of messengers kept coming and going to report:
"Commander Qi, we have tortured the enemy scouts. The leader of this army is Xiang Yan, the Shangzhu State of Chu State, and the deputy general is the general of Chu State." Sima Qu Huan. "
"Reporting to the commander, Captain Jiang Ming's troops have reported that they have captured Xiangcheng and the three surrounding cities. There has been no fighting and 7,000 county soldiers have been captured. I want to ask the commander what to do next. How.”
“Commander Qi, Zhaoling County has been captured by the Chu army...”
Ying Chengyu smiled softly: “The Chu State has a good nose.”
"I think the Chu State had just received the news that I had conquered Daliang City and had already decided to send troops."
"Even though I divided my troops into four groups and persuaded him to surrender with the handwritten letter of the King of Wei, he still snatched the enemy from my hands. A Zhaoling City.”
“You have arrived at the end of the country a few years ago, but you dare not fight to the death with our army.”
“Now you see the fat remains of our army falling on the ground. , but he came to lick it very quickly."
A few soldiers in the distance couldn't help laughing.
Didn't Ying Chengxuan compare Chu State to a dog?
But none of the generals smiled.
Meng Nan asked in a low voice: "Coach, what should be done next?"
"Do we want to withdraw our troops?"
Other generals also looked at Ying Chengyu.
Under Ying Chengyu's strategy of quickly seizing the city, the already poor Qin army divided its forces again.
There are only 50,000 troops left with Ying Chengyu!
What about the enemy?
A total of three hundred and fifty thousand!
How to fight this?
Can't fight!
Even if Ying Chengyu does not divide his troops, the total strength of Ying Chengyu's army is only 130,000, which is less than 40% of the Chu army. This battle will be equally difficult!
Ying Chengxuan asked: "Withdraw? Where to withdraw?"
Meng Nan replied directly: "I will withdraw to Daliang City."
"Our army has not The water was diverted to the beams. That strong city could protect Wei in the past, and it can naturally protect our army today!”
After hearing Meng Nan's words, many generals were very happy.
Fortunately, Ying Chengyu’s plan failed to be successfully implemented, so they now have a way out.
Ying Cheng turned around and looked at the generals behind him: "Retreat to Daliang City?"
"How could you have such a ridiculous idea!"
Ying Cheng Xi angrily rebuked: "Have you forgotten how our army forced the Wei army?"
"Once our army retreats to Daliang City, Anling, Linzhong, and Yuguan cities will all fall into the hands of the Chu army."
"The Chu army can completely turn to the northwest from Yuguan and seize Xinzheng City!"< br>
“By then, both the Xingze Dike and Honggou Dike will fall into the hands of the Chu army!”
Meng Nan suddenly realized, and then his face showed fear.
Although Daliang City was strong, it was also broken by the Qin army.
If the Qin army really retreats to Daliang City, the plot of more than 20 days ago will be repeated.
It’s just that this time it was the Chu army who picked up the Qin army’s script, while the Qin army had to pick up the Wei army’s script.
Winning or losing, do you still need to consider it?
They have already verified it!
Ying Chengyu’s voice became more and more solemn: “If our army retreats without a fight, the best outcome would be the complete annihilation of our army!”
"If the Chu army ignores our army after breaking through Xinzheng City and continues to advance westward, the Chu army will be able to push all the way to Hangu Pass."
"By then, our country, the Qin Dynasty, will be in danger of subjugation!"
The generals were stunned, and then suddenly murmured: "Han and Wei are both dead."
"The two countries blocking the southeast of our Da Qin no longer exist!"
The reason why it was inconvenient for Chu State to attack Qin from the southeast was because of the blockage of Han and Wei.
Unless many countries join forces and Chu can march through Wei, Chu will only be able to attack from the south and southwest of Qin.
But today, Han and Wei no longer exist.
The only one standing in the southeast direction of Da Qin was Chang'an Jun's troops.
Once Chang'an Jun's troops are lost, what awaits Great Qin is to attack Hangu!
Meng Nan’s voice was bitter: “So, our army cannot retreat!”
Ying Chengyu asked again: "Why should our army retreat?"
"Are you generals worried about Chu's 350,000 troops?"
Meng Nan and other generals He nodded slightly.
Isn’t this nonsense!
Ying Chengqiao laughed: "No wonder the generals are determined to withdraw their troops."
"But I just thought that the military merits of this battle were enough for me and all the commanders to eat and drink!"
Looking around all the generals, Ying Chengyu said in a calm and matter-of-fact voice:
“In the past, no one thought that this general could lead his army to destroy Korea.”
“When the military report of this general’s destruction of Korea was sent back to Xianyang City, Marquis Wenxin thought that this general was lying about his military achievements, and he This is about the crime of this general.”
“But this general did destroy South Korea.”
"In the past, no one thought that Daliang City would be captured."
"None of the state captains took Wei as the main direction of attack. Our army's goal was only to involve the Zhao army."
"But this general They destroyed Wei again."
"Now, it's Chu's turn."
Ying Chengyu looked at the Chu army outside the city and asked with a chuckle: "I have been serving as a soldier since then. Not even a single defeat.”
"I don't think we will be defeated here."
"Generals, do you think we will win or lose this battle?"
Ying Chengyu did not emphasize his tone, nor did he Roaring at the top of his lungs, he just spoke calmly.
But those victories again and again and hundreds of thousands of dead souls have become Ying Chengyu's best modal particles.
The rationality of Meng Nan and other generals told them that it was impossible to win with such a disparity in strength!
But when the words came to my lips, I couldn't say them out. Ying Chengyu has fought fierce battles worthy of being recorded in history, so why can't he win this battle?
More than ten breaths later, Meng Nan suddenly handed over his hand: "The coach must win! Da Qin must win!"
Led by Meng Nan, a group of generals also joined forces. Qi cupped his hands: "The coach must win! Da Qin must win!"
The soldiers further away didn't know what was happening.
But the generals shouted, and they also shouted with the crowd.
"Coach must win! Great Qin must win!"
The cry of fifty thousand Qin troops spread throughout Anling City and outside, causing many Chu troops to look at Anling warily.
Ying Chengyu laughed heartily: "Not bad!"
"Da Qin will win!"
"Pass this general's order!"
"Order Lieutenant General Meng Wu to guard Yang Jin, and for this general to block the enemies from Zhao and Yan."
"Order the captains Jiang Ming, Wang Qun, Xifeng's troops left 20% of their troops to guard the city, and led 80% of their troops and captured county soldiers to Anling County!"
"Order Captain Xiao Tu's troops to go up the city wall and guard the city."< br>
“Tiaoben will hand over four thousand soldiers to two to five hundred Su Jiao, and order Su Jiao’s troops to prepare for war!”
"Open the Anling arsenal and put the defense weapons on the city wall. I will occupy Anling City and fight to the death with the Chu army!"
A group of captains and messengers suddenly handed over their hands and shouted hoarsely: "Only ! ”
The order was delivered, and all the soldiers and horses galloped inside Anling City.
Only Ying Chengyu was still standing at the top of the city, looking deeply at the direction of the Chu army.
Ying Cheng's confident and confident appearance deeply infected every messenger and general who came to report.
Following such a general who has repeatedly created miracles, they are full of hope for the future!
But is Ying Chengyu really as calm as he appears?
Using a superior force to fight Pang Nuan, the victory became a group that even panicked.
And now the person standing opposite Ying Chengyu is Xiang Yan!
In the original history, Xiang Yan almost completely wiped out Li Xin's troops, forcing Wang Jian to use his national strength to fight a protracted war!
Xiang Yan has great fame and was elected as the nominal leader by Chen Sheng, Wu Guang and many other rebels!
The number of people in later generations who know Xiang Yan’s name is dozens of times more than the number of people who know Pang Nuan?
The name of a person is the shadow of a tree.
Such a famous general led seven times as many troops to the city.
Can Ying Chengxuan not panic?
Under the cover of Ying Chengyu's calm expression, Ying Chengyu was screaming like a prairie dog in his heart!
Old thief Xiang Yan!
You are taking advantage of the situation! Take advantage of the opportunity! Shameless! Don’t talk about martial ethics!
Isn’t your state of Chu in civil strife?
Why are you meddling in the war between our Great Qin and Wei!
Go and continue the internal fighting!
With an army of 350,000, I am going to take the lead?
With his right hand, he had pressed the finger marks on the walls of Anling City, and Ying Chengyu prayed over and over again in his heart.
I don’t want the Zhaoling Mausoleum anymore, I’ll give it to you guys, you go home quickly!
How about we each go back to our respective homes and find our respective mothers!
"Great Chu, ten thousand victories!"
A roar suddenly sounded, and the four hundred pioneer warriors broke away from the Chu army's formation and ran towards Anling City.
Ying Chengyu slapped the city wall fiercely: "Your mother is here!"
But the Chu army's attack also shattered the fear in Ying Chengyu's heart.
The Chu army has started a war, and fear is meaningless.
When encountering an enemy, you must draw your sword and blood will be splashed for seven steps. The brave one will win!
The only plan for now is to fight!
Ying Chengxuan shouted an order: "Send an order to the four cities and send excellent archers to shoot down the Chu army who came first!"
With the order, hundreds of archers appeared on the walls of each city.
There was no diffusion, the Qin army archers just watched quietly as the Chu army advanced and ran wildly.
After the Chu army entered the place of arrows first, the Qin army's archers drew their bows and fired arrows at the Chu army.
After two rounds of Chu troops attacked the city first, the Qin army only spent more than 3,000 arrows, but killed 800 Chu troops.
But the Chu army's ladder has already landed more than thirty feet outside the north gate of Anling City.
Faced with such a good opportunity, it is difficult for any general to resist.
Ten thousand Chu troops stood out from the military formation, guarding three thousand crossbowmen as they approached Anling City.
Ying Chengyu immediately gave an order: "Personal soldiers with crossbows to the north city!"
"March close to the wall, don't be discovered by the enemy!"
With one order, two thousand soldiers The crossbowmen climbed onto the northern city wall and formed an army with the thousands of crossbowmen who were originally stationed here.
Ying Chengyu continued to wait patiently.
It wasn’t until the Chu army fired the first round of arrows and another round of pioneering warriors charged towards Anling City that Ying Chenggan finally shouted:
"Target Chu army crossbowmen, fire three times!"
"The north gate opens, Su Jiao's troops charge to kill!"
The bow strings exploded.
Thousands of crossbow arrows shot out from the heavy crossbow, covering the Chu army like dark clouds.
The north gate is open.
Five thousand Qin troops swarmed out from the north city gate. Su Jiao shouted angrily: "Paozes, the first attack is in front, and the friendly forces are behind you!"
"Charge!"
< br>Ten thousand Qin troops roared in unison: "Charge!"
With the power of destroying the country, the Qin army, which was full of blood, ran towards the Chu army like hungry wolves that were never satisfied.
In less than a hundred breaths, Su Jiao's troops crashed into the Chu army's formation.
Su Jiao, who was in the lead, shot away the forest of spears set up by the Chu army. He ducked forward and stabbed continuously with his spear like a swimming dragon, killing four Chu soldiers in the blink of an eye!
After a breach was opened, Su Jiao shouted excitedly: "Follow me and charge to kill!"
