My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?

Chapter 256 To face the ancestors in order to have face!

Since the expedition, Ying Chengyu's troops have been either fighting or on the way to fight, and from time to time they will carry out a rush or forced march.

The rich war inspired their will, allowing Ying Chengyu's troops to always maintain a high fighting spirit.

But will cannot be transformed into physical strength after all.

Continuous fighting has exhausted the Qin army's physical strength and energy.

Therefore, after Ying Chengyu judged the situation of the battle, he decided to suffer a little longer.

After the Qin army went north and crossed Chencheng, they ordered the army to take boats and the soldiers to sail upstream along the chasm, then turned into Jishui and then went down the river.

Twenty days later, the Qin army finally disembarked on the north bank of Jishui and arrived thirty miles south of Yangjin.

But the Qin army scouts did not receive this treatment.

While the army was still drifting on the water, the Qin army's scouts were already heading toward Yang Jin.

As soon as Ying Chengyu got off the boat, all kinds of information had already gathered.

"Commander, the number of our troops in Yangjin City is unknown. The Yan army has about [-] troops and is launching attacks from the east, west and north of Yangjin City."

"The leader of the Yan army will be the Prime Minister of Yan, and the deputy general is unknown. There is no doubt that there is a deputy general."

"The grain of the Yan army was originally transported from the direction of Lingqiu. Six days ago, the Qi State sent [-] troops across the river to attack the Lingqiu grain road. Later, the grain road of the Yan army was changed to the direction of Neihuang."

"The travelers stationed in Qi sent a message that Qi State has sent [-] naval troops, heading north along the coast to march into the hinterland of Yan State."

"General Jian..."

After listening to all the messages carefully, Ying Chengyu said thoughtfully: "Qi State also participated in the war?"

"Then this battle is truly a world war worthy of the name!"

A local war just to prove the power of Qin Dynasty gradually developed into a world war, and the development of the war situation exceeded Ying Chengyu's expectations.

But Qi's participation in the war is undoubtedly a huge benefit to Da Qin.

Although Qi is weak, Yan is even weaker than Qi!

Moreover, Qi's navy is powerful and can directly threaten Yan's rear.

With Qi's participation in the war, Ying Chengyu's pre-planned strategy must also change accordingly.

After pondering for a long time, Ying Chengyu said in a deep voice: "Order!"

"The whole army marches urgently and will camp ten miles south of Yangjin City tonight to rest and recuperate!"

"Send envoys to the Yan camp to persuade them to surrender."

"If the Yan army does not retreat, we will make food tomorrow at Pingdan (3:00) and send out troops at sunrise (5:00)!"

Wang Ben was a little surprised: "Immediately press in with the army, and attack by force tomorrow?"

Ying Chengqiao asked in a gentle voice: "If General Wang has any other good ideas, please don't hesitate to tell me."

Ying Chengyu always believed that he had won several victories by relying on many lucky creations that spanned the ages.

But Wang Ben's ability has been tested by history.

Even without any transcendent creations, Wang Jian and Wang Ben's father and son still destroyed five kingdoms for the Qin Dynasty.

With his military exploits in wiping out two countries and his status as a young master, Ying Chengxuan would not feel inferior in front of Wang Ben.

But Ying Chengyu would never despise this famous general just because he destroyed two countries in a row.

Wang Ben cupped his hands and said: "The general just thought that the commander would find another good strategy and use strange tactics to defeat the enemy."

"I never thought that the coach wanted to use his majestic troops to force us forward."

"In this way, our army can fight a happy battle!"

In the battle at Wuyan Mountain, Wang Ben formulated delaying tactics based entirely on the strategic plan given by Ying Chengyu.

But in that battle, Wang Ben was very unhappy.

Looking at the battles to destroy Han, the battle to destroy Wei, and the battle to attack Chu, Wang Ben originally thought that Ying Chengyu was a commander who preferred to use cunning strategies and was good at looking for opportunities outside the battlefield.

Wang Ben didn't expect that Ying Chengyu would give up all plans for this battle. He only made a perfunctory attempt to persuade him to surrender and then started to attack!
Ying Chengyu said casually: "The opponents are different after all."

"The Yan State has lost consecutive battles, and the morale of the Yan army is not high."

"Rather than resorting to danger, it would be better for the army to press forward and arouse the fear of the Yan army!"

In the past, Ying Chengyu would subconsciously avoid frontal combat.

That's because Ying Chengxuan didn't have any trust in his own military command ability.

However, after experiencing the growth of the war, Ying Chengyu has the confidence to challenge the enemy head-on.

In this case, Ying Chengyu will naturally choose the most effective way of playing.

Wang Ben laughed loudly: "What the coach said makes sense!"

"Now that I am strong and the enemy is weak, why do I need to use so many tricks?"

"Surprise attack, encirclement and annihilation are the techniques of great victory!"

"General, please take the lead in this battle!"

Ying Chengxuan shook his head: "Our deputy general is currently trapped in Yangjincheng, and we asked General Wang to assume the position of deputy general of our army."

"There is already another candidate for the position of pioneer."

Wang Ben was a little helpless.

Although this general is only the commander of a partial division, he is still a commander after all.

Isn't it a bit bullying to ask this general to do the work of a deputy general in just one sentence?
After finally having the opportunity to get addicted to the game, he was snatched away. Wang Ben asked rather unwillingly: "I wonder which general will be the vanguard in this battle?"

Before Ying Chengyu could answer, a burst of excited shouts sounded from not far away.

"Soldiers!" Li Xin shouted angrily: "Follow me and go ahead to make a clear path for the army!"

Ying Chengqiao smiled and said: "The vanguard of this battle is Captain Li's army."

Although Li Xin was defeated by Xiang Yan in the original history, in Ying Chengyu's view, Li Xin was also a very good general, and his transfer style of play was quite unique, and he was more than enough to serve as a vanguard. .

After all, you can't say that those who can't beat Xiang Yu are weaklings, and those who can't beat Lu Bu are ordinary people, right?
Compared with Li Xin, Wang Ben's tactical thinking is obviously more suitable for sitting in the central army and assisting Ying Chengyu in checking for deficiencies.

Seeing Li Xin moving forward, Wang Ben reluctantly handed over his hand: "Wei!"

Li Xin didn't know that he was envied by Wang Ben. After getting off the boat, Li Xin led his army forward without stopping, and at ten o'clock at noon, he had arrived ten miles south of Yangjin City.

Looking at the Yan army attacking Yangjincheng in the distance, Li Xin couldn't help but give an order: "Order!"

"The left wing presses forward for a mile to cause nuisance!"

Li Xin's troops were only [-].

But the Yan army in front had [-] troops.

As long as some troops are allocated, the Yan army will have a chance to swallow up Li Xin's left wing, or even Li Xin's troops!
However, what Li Xin didn't expect was that the Yan army completely ignored Li Xin's bait and made no move after sending tens of thousands of infantry to stabilize the rear army.

Li Xinxin was unwilling to give up and continued to order: "The left-wing knight moves forward one more mile!"

Due to Ying Chengyu's order, Li Xin did not dare to take the initiative to attack, and could only frantically test and jump around on the safety line between the two armies.

"Captain Li, aren't you tired?" Hearing someone ask from behind him, Li Xin replied without looking back: "I won't..."

But halfway through speaking, Li Xin suddenly realized that the voice sounded familiar.

Turning around hurriedly, Li Xin saw Ying Chengyu and Wang Benzheng looking at him speechlessly.

Li Xin raised his hand and said, "Commander, I would like to say hello to the Yan army."

"At the same time, he tried to pull the Yan army back and relieve the pressure on General Meng's troops."

Ying Chengyu did not expose Li Xin's intentions.

It's just that the young general saw the opportunity to gain military glory and couldn't help but want to gain both hands.

Ying Chengyu just ordered quietly: "Order!"

"Captain Li Xin's troops immediately set up camp and the main army rested."

"If the arrangement is not completed within half an hour and the rest is started, we will take away the position of vanguard!"

Li Xin immediately became anxious and immediately handed over his hand: "General, I will lead my army to rest now!"

Li Xin led his army in a hurry, but Ying Chengyu and Wang Ben still rode in front of the formation.

Looking at the Yan army who had withdrawn their troops and returned to their camp, Ying Chengyu frowned slightly: "Fight but not fight, retreat but never retreat."

"What does Yan Jiang want from this?"

……

at the same time.

Yan Jun Zhongjun.

"Withdraw the troops! We must withdraw the troops!" Jiang Qu said firmly: "The Qin army is coming with great force, and our Yan army is definitely not a match."

"Now that we are withdrawing our troops, it can still be said that our troops are bewitched by other countries."

"The State of Qin is involved in the State of Zhao, so it will not easily show its force to our army again."

"But if we don't retreat but advance instead, our army will definitely be defeated!"

Yan Badger said solemnly: "This is the king's order!"

"Please Xiangbang obey the order!"

"Moreover, the Qin army has experienced the battle to destroy Wei and the battle to attack Chu, and now it has moved thousands of miles to attack Yang Jin. It must be extremely exhausted."

"This is definitely an excellent opportunity to defeat Chang'an Jun's troops!"

Yan Badger said sincerely: "As long as we can defeat the Qin army once and continue to involve Chang'an Jun's troops, Zhao will definitely continue to fight Qin."

"After the fight between Qin and Zhao, I, Dayan, can reap the benefits."

"Not only can we seize many of the old Wei territories, we can even have the opportunity to attack the Zhao State and regain the territories of our country, Yan, that were invaded by the Zhao State."

"How can you miss such a good opportunity?"

King Yan didn't think he could win this battle.

King Xi of Yan now just hopes that he can involve Ying Chengyu's troops at a small cost and prompt Qin and Zhao to continue fighting to the death.

If Qin and Zhao can break out another war like the Battle of Changping, Yan will have a chance to regain its lost territory.

After King Yan's death, he had the face to face his ancestors!
General Qu said angrily: "After the Battle of Changping, the king took advantage of Zhao's weakness and sent 60 troops to attack Zhao, but Zhao general Xinpingjun led [-] new troops to counterattack all the way to Jicheng!"

"Even if Qin and Zhao fought to the death and suffered a lot of damage, how easy would it be for a fisherman to do this?"

"And the king promised me that this battle will be completely commanded by me."

"This is the king's promise to the truth."

"Why is your Majesty going back on his word now, and why is he still interfering with the truth!"

The swallow badger shouted angrily: "What a shame!"

"How dare Xiang Bangan feel resentful towards the king!"

Jiang Qu smiled miserably: "Are you resentful?"

He pointed at his ribs and said angrily: "If I really have a grudge against the king, I will never step foot in Yan soil again after being kicked in the ribs by the king!"

In the past, King Xi of Yan wanted to attack Zhao. Lejian, Jiang Qu and others tried hard to persuade him, but King Xi of Yan not only refused to listen, but even kicked Jiang Qu.

After the war, King Yan sincerely apologized to everyone, and he accepted the apology from King Yan and was used by King Yan again. However, Lejian, Lecheng and others decisively defected to Zhao and even led troops. Cut down Yan.

Jiang Qu had angrily accused Lejian of being unfaithful countless times.

But at this moment, Jiang Qu finally understood why Lejian, Lecheng and others were so decisive.

They didn't leave because King Yan didn't listen to advice, but because they saw through King Yan's open-mouthed, unpromised, capricious, and stubborn character!

How can such a king accomplish anything?
Faced with the angry rebuke from a tired loyal minister, Yan Badger subconsciously took two steps back.

But then Yan Badger took another step forward and said in a deep voice: "I also know that the prime minister is loyal to Dayan."

"Of course, once the king's order is issued, how can the ministers not obey it?"

"Please Xiangbang obey the order to attack Qin, or hand over military power, and return to Jicheng to explain to the king!"

After keeping him silent for a long time, he asked: "If I hand over the military power, who will be the general?"

Yan Badger bowed his hands and said, "That's me, general."

He laughed and said, "You?"

"just you?"

Yan Badger said solemnly: "That's me!"

He slowly let out a breath and sighed helplessly: "Since the king is determined to fight."

"My lord, I have no choice but to fight!"

"Please also tell the king that this battle will be lost."

"The only thing I can do is to save more soldiers for my great Yan."

"In this way, you are completely loyal to me, Dayan!"

Yan Badger immediately said: "How can we lose this battle? His Qin country..."

However, before Yan Badger could finish his words, Jiang Qu strode past him and walked out of the tent.

Facing the anxious eyes from outside the tent, he said in a deep voice: "The king wants you to continue attacking Qin!"

The morale of the generals outside the tent was obviously low.

Jiang Qu continued to speak: "Order!"

"Tonight when the rooster crows (1:00), we will make rice, and on the next day we will send out troops."

"Captain Le Xun is the vanguard and attacks the Qin army's camp at night!"
