Chapter 283
At the same time, the Tang army had already entered the Qin territory, and Ying Zheng had no time to take care of it. Now the troops attacking the Han Dynasty were completely dragged down by Liu Bang's troops, and Li Xin's troops began to pursue Li Guang's escape route, which was getting further and further away from the main force of the Qin army.
Bai Qi wanted to call them back, but unexpectedly, he had lost contact with Li Xin. Not only that, he also lost contact with Wang Ben, and the army completely disappeared from their sight.
"No, Li Xin could not be completely wiped out by the enemy. Do you still remember what happened to Meng Tian and I in the Han Dynasty? Liu Bang cut off all the network lines and let us go around there." Bai Qi said carefully to Ying Zheng.
Then there is only the possibility he mentioned. Liu Bang cut off the signal again, so Li Xin could not contact the outside world and could only call him blindly.
"We can only watch how they spend these days. We can't break in and investigate the situation inside." Bai Qi shook his head and said.
However, soon another news came. The Tang army had advanced to most of the territory of Qin and was almost attacked to the capital of Qin, and the country was in a hurry.
"Didn't I send Wang to support me? Why haven't I arrived yet?" Ying Zheng raised his head and asked.
Moreover, Shang Yang's reserve troops have been activated. Now the front line is not enough. Most of the troops have been drawn by Ying Zheng to attack Liu Bang, and there are only less than 200,000 troops left in the country.
"If the militia is brought up, it will be less than 300,000 at most, and the Tang army dispatched 500,000, and there will be reinforcements one after another..." Shang Yang said helplessly in the meeting hall.
Meng Yi, who was sitting aside, thought for a while, then said, "Mr. Shang, I have a suggestion, you can give it a try."
"You said." Shang Yang nodded and said to Meng Yi.
Meng Yi's idea was more pertinent, which could not only allow the Tang army to suspend its attack on Qin, but also wait for the arrival of reinforcements.
"Talking consultation with Li Jing, the commander of the Tang army, is just a delaying strategy, and is actually waiting for reinforcements."
I don’t know if this method can be done. Li Jing is not a fool. If he fights, he doesn’t care about these things at all. If you surrender, you surrender. If you don’t surrender, we will fight to the end. If you ask for help with me, you will stop doing it.
"Try it?" Shang Yang had no choice but to submit a negotiation letter to Li Jing, and the two sides talked about the war.
However, Li Jing's reply was a few words: Surrender without fighting, fight if you don't fight.
What a good guy, I don’t have any face left, but Shang Yang saw a few more words behind him.
The above is about the Tang Dynasty's unintentional war. If you want to make the sake of the people of the world, you will surrender on the spot. They will never kill the prisoners and will also give them a good environment for them to live in.
These words made Shang Yang a little insulted. Who wants to fight? Didn’t you take the initiative to fight? You still have no intention of war? Do you think the people’s devastation was caused by our Daqin?
"Reply, fight to the end! If you want to fight, fight, what kind of style are there? The war they took the initiative to challenge is still style, bullshit!" Shang Yang was completely angry and pointed to the letter on the table and cursed.
So after returning the letter to Li Jing, Li Jing laughed instead of anger. Shang Jun is Shang Jun, and it is indeed well-known. Since they have seen what they mean, what's the use of resisting?
Three days later, Wang Yi's reinforcements had also returned to the rescue. The return of these 100,000 troops to Shang Yang was like a timely help. Now the troops in the Qin Dynasty have a certain strength to compete with the Tang army.
When Li Jing learned that the Qin army reinforcements had returned to the aid, he was not angry. He happened to want to compete with the Qin army one by one. He was not a hero with more and less. The troops were the same to fight each other and see who bullied whom.
Immediately afterwards, Li Jing wrote another letter to Shang Yang, and the meaning of the letter was almost the same, I would not bully you, but now your army has returned to the rescue, and we will fight a war with dignity.
After reading this letter, Shang Yang replied with another letter. The meaning of the letter was to say that you should not be so hypocritical, and you will have a way to compete with each other outside the city tomorrow.
The next morning, the two armies confronted each other outside the city. Shang Yang had been in battle for a long time. Seeing that Li Jing also went out to command the battle, they came to the center of the battlefield to meet.
"Shang Jun is fine."
"General Li Jing, he is very stylish."
"Exceeded awards and more awards."
"Since that's the case, my Qin reinforcements have arrived. Will the war start?"
"I can't find it."
"Okay, don't cry if you defeat it!"
"Let's wait and see."
After the two returned to their camp, they pulled out their swords and pointed at the sky. The two armies rushed over. Li Jing stood in front of the camp and watched the two armies fighting motionlessly, while Shang Yang turned around and did not look at the scene in front of him.
"kill!"
The Tang army generals fought together, and the two sides fought hard, and the Qin army generals also worked very hard. After fighting with the Tang army, they not only did not feel the effort, but also felt very relaxed.
Then Shang Yang called Ying Zheng:
"Your Majesty, the fight has begun."
After receiving the news from Shang Yang, Ying Zheng responded: "How is the battle?"
"Li Jing is indeed not an ordinary person. He said that when our reinforcements arrive, this boy is really trustworthy. They will not start the war until our reinforcements arrive here." Shang Yang responded loudly.
...
A quarter of an hour later, after the battle, the two sides were exhausted. The Tang soldiers were indeed extremely brave, and the Qin army was not a group of sheep. They also worked very hard during the battle, and the Tang army did not eat any sweetness.
After the two sides withdrew from the camp, they reported the casualties of the battle. The Tang army was only 10,000 killed, and the Qin army had already exceeded 10,000, but most of the injured were the Tang army. The Tang army had more than the Qin army.
In other words, the Qin army was slightly better in this first confrontation.
Li Jing, who was sitting in the camp, was not angry, but went out to the camp to comfort the casualties. All the soldiers who died were cremated and then waited for the next bloody battle.
The same goes for the Qin army. After Shang Yang placed the fallen soldiers, he came to the front of the formation to watch. Seeing Li Jing standing there, he blinked without saying anything, and then turned around and entered the camp.
"Send the order, let them fight for the second attack, we will stick to the camp, I'm afraid that Li Jing will play tricks."
Wang Ying, who was standing beside him, nodded. From Li Jing's expression just now, he wanted to lure the Qin army into the trap. He took advantage of their unpreparedness and stabbed them in the back.
"Hmph, I really think I'm stupid." Shang Yang murmured at the letter in front of him.
