Chapter 258 Ready to go(2/2)
It wasn't until Sun Boling, the commander-in-chief, gave the military order that they knew that Qin Dongjun's first opponent would be Yiqu in the north of Qin State.
However, after reacting from the shock, the expressions on some of the generals' faces began to change, and a bit of vigorous fighting spirit appeared in their eyes.
You must know that many of the generals who are in the Chinese army's tent at this moment are from the land of Qindong.
In 429 BC, Yiqu moved from the north to the south to attack Qin. The land directly facing Yiqu's army was Qindong, east of Jingshui River.
Although Yiqu has not launched a large-scale offensive like that in recent years, the small-scale harassment of Qin State, especially Qindong, has never stopped.
It can be said that there is a sworn personal feud between Li Shu, who lives in the land of Qindong, and Yiqu.
Now that they heard that Wei was about to launch an offensive against Yiqu, these people, after experiencing their initial shock, were naturally filled with the will to take revenge.
Silently staring ahead, seeing the changes in expressions on the faces of the generals, Sun Boling, the commander-in-chief, nodded gently.
Sun Boling, who has lived here for five years, is naturally aware of the hatred between Qin Dongli and Yiqu.
This time, Sun Boling, as the commander-in-chief, was confident that he could lead his 50,000-strong army and go north to capture the Yuzhi City in the Royal Court of Yiqu.
Holding the silk book firmly in his hand, a sharp edge emerged in his eyes, "Pass this general's order, and the entire army will immediately enter a state of combat readiness and be ready to depart at any time."
"Follow orders."
When the military orders from Anyi successively arrived at the two camps in Hexi and Qindong, the Wei troops participating in the battle immediately began their own actions.
With the increasingly frequent mobilization of the Wei army, the entire territory of Wei State west of the river seemed to be shrouded in a thick layer of clouds, until people were almost breathless.
The tense atmosphere caused by the frequent mobilization of the army in Wei State was quickly felt by Qin State, which was adjacent to Wei State.
Regarding the mobilization of Wei's army, the generals of the Qin army stationed here were extremely alert.
Now that Duke Yingshi Xi of Qin has passed away not long ago, Qin is in a turbulent stage of power transfer, and no one can guarantee whether Wei will take this opportunity to attack Qin.
So, just when the border of Qin was rumbling, a fast horse galloped towards the west.
…
Qin State, Yongdu.
In the main hall, Ying Quliang, who had just completed the funeral of Qin Gong Ying Shixi, was sitting behind several cases in white clothes.
At this moment, a somewhat hasty footsteps came directly in front of him from outside the hall.
"Brother Zhong, Brother Zhong, it's not good."
Hearing this familiar voice in his ear, Ying Quliang quickly raised his head and looked at the other party with some confusion.
"Third brother, what's wrong? Why are you so panicked?"
This young man whom Ying Quliang calls his third brother is none other than the third son of the late emperor Ying Shixi, the Young Master.
Hearing the doubts expressed by his brother Zhong, the young master immediately came to him quickly and handed him the silk book from the front line in his hand.
"Brother Zhong, look, the eldest brother sent a battle report from the front line, saying that the Wei army on the border has been mobilized frequently and seems to be preparing to attack our country, Qin."
"Now that my father-in-law has just passed away, Brother Zhong, you haven't had time to take over the throne yet. If the Wei State comes to attack our Qin State, I'm afraid I won't be able to withstand it!"
Every word and sentence clearly reflects the anxiety in the young master's heart at this moment, and also explains the dangerous situation that Qin is facing at this moment.
Facing the young officer's worried words in his ears, Ying Quliang, who was on the throne, seemed much more calm.
Of course, this does not mean that he is not worried at all, but Ying Quliang knows very well that just worrying about the current situation is of no use.
Holding up the silk book and reading it carefully, Ying Quliang slowly stood up from the throne, his eyes full of contemplation.
After a moment, a solemn look flashed across Ying Quliang's face, and his eyes quickly turned to the young master beside him.
"Third brother, how many troops are there in Yongcheng now?"
After Ying Quliang's inquiry came to an end, the young master recalled briefly and said immediately: "My eldest brother went to the front line and took away 10,000 people, but now there are still 15,000 people in Yongcheng."
"Leave three thousand defenders behind and order the remaining twelve thousand troops to immediately go to the Qin and Wei front lines. We also ordered various places to be ready to recruit soldiers at any time."
The expression on his face became more solemn, and he heard Ying Quliang say in a deep voice: "The State of Wei is mobilizing its army at this moment, and it must be a big deal. I don't know if our State of Qin can escape from danger this time."
