Chapter 353: Sit back and wait.
The Wei army was so caught off guard by the attack on Wushi Fortress that before the Qin army stationed there could react, the Wei army's horses rushed into the open city gate.
Faced with the sudden appearance of the Wei army in front of them, the only thing the Qin soldiers could do was to use their weapons and form a defense line.
However, this hastily formed defense line was ultimately fragile in front of the elite Wei cavalry. Without spending much effort, the Wei army completely disrupted the Qin army's position.
And with the Qin soldiers fleeing in embarrassment, it was only a matter of time before the Wuzhi Fort under their feet completely fell into the hands of the Wei army.
When the battle between Wei and Qin gradually advanced towards the core of Wushi Fortress, Sun Boling, the chief general of the Wei army, climbed onto the wall of Wushi Fortress followed by a group of generals.
"Sima..."
Just as Sun Boling continued to move forward, a somewhat anxious shout stopped him from behind.
He turned around and looked back at the person who came, it was the general who had just led the cavalry to attack Wushi Sai.
What was a little unusual was that instead of the joy of winning the battle, the face of the general in front of him was filled with worry and solemnity.
Quickly arriving in front of Sun Boling, I heard the general bow down and report: "I am reporting to Sima that something serious has happened."
"According to the surrendered prisoners of war of the Qin army, Wu Shisai sent messenger troops to Yongcheng not long ago. I am afraid that our army's movements cannot be hidden from the Qin army for much longer."
"What!"
When the generals of the Wei army around Sun Boling heard the news, their faces showed a bit of solemnity.
After the messengers arrived at Yongcheng, the Qin court would inevitably send troops north, and we would have to fight the Qin army.
The original surprise attack turned into a head-on confrontation. This change not only did not meet the expectations of the Wei generals present, but it may also affect the direction of the entire battle.
Almost as soon as they realized that the battle situation might change drastically, the eyes of all the Wei army generals were focused on Sima Sun Boling.
Facing the glances from around him, Sun Boling still showed no trace of panic on his face.
Just as everyone was waiting for Sun Boling's next response, another burst of footsteps appeared not far away.
"Go, go, go..."
Looking in the direction from which the sound came, Jiang He, the leader of the Jiang clan, and several Wei soldiers were walking towards the crowd escorting a Qin soldier.
"Clan leader, this is..."
Facing Sun Boling's questioning words, Jiang He slightly raised his hand and said, "Greetings to Sima, this is the Qin general captured by the last general. He is also the second-largest general in Wushi Fortress, second only to the general Bai Yu."
After listening to Jiang He's report, Sun Boling looked at the Qin Army deputy general in front of him. The Qin Army deputy general was also looking at the people in front of him.
Although he had become a prisoner of the Wei army, the Qin army's deputy general did not seem to have the slightest awareness of being a prisoner of war.
While the anger was burning on his face, the Qin Army deputy general's roar was directed at everyone.
"You and other Wei people are really cunning. First, you deceived General Bai Yu in the name of Yiqu's remaining soldiers, and then you took advantage of our army's unpreparedness to attack our Wushi Fortress."
"If you have the ability, let me go. Let's fight sword to sword for life and death."
Regarding the request made by the deputy general of the Qin Army, Sun Boling asked softly, "General, do you think I might agree to you?"
Those words with an extremely calm tone were like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing the unwilling anger of the Qin Army lieutenant general.
A trace of self-mockery appeared on his face. How could the Qin Army deputy general not know that this was simply impossible?
On the battlefield, the competition is all about one word: deceit.
The general of the Wei army in front of him in this battle was so superior that he and the entire Qin army were deceived into running around. What qualifications did he have to talk about a head-on confrontation?
"Sima uses his troops very treacherously. It's really hard for me to match him, but..."
His eyes slowly moved to Sun Boling in front of him, and the corners of the Qin Army's deputy general's mouth gradually raised a little, "It's just that I had noticed that the situation was wrong before, and informed Yongcheng of the news in advance. I believe that the reinforcements from the north will arrive in Wushi soon.
plug."
"I'm just afraid that Sima's careful arrangements will be in vain in the end."
"Oh, the general is really so confident."
The eyes of Sun Boling met the eyes of the deputy general of the Qin Army opposite him, and the corners of Sun Boling's mouth also raised a slight arc.
"Reinforcements, what a reinforcements."
"What the general thought was a reinforcement force was nothing more than a bird that fell into a trap in my eyes."
"As long as my hand is this tight..."
While speaking, Sun Boling stretched out his right hand and clenched it tightly into a fist in front of the Qin Army deputy general.
After seeing this scene in his eyes, the deputy general of the Qin army still didn't know that the response he had made in advance had become a move in Sun Boling's hands.
Thinking that the Qin army heading north for reinforcements was very likely to step into the trap set by the Wei army, and might even suffer a major defeat, the Qin army's lieutenant general couldn't help but have a look of panic on his face.
His eyes returned to Sun Boling, and a crazy idea suddenly appeared in the mind of the Qin Army's deputy general.
If we can kill the Wei Jun Sima in front of us, will our side be able to reduce some losses?
Yes, it must be possible.
Gradually, the deputy general of the Qin army looked at Sun Boling with more and more firm and dangerous eyes, and then he heard a deafening roar.
Before the escorting Wei soldiers could react, the Qin army deputy general suddenly became angry and was about to rush towards Sun Boling on the opposite side.
It's just that the enemy he has to face at this moment is not just Sun Boling alone, but the surrounding ten Wei generals who fought bloody battles on the battlefield.
"Protect Sima!"
Almost at the same time as the sound fell, several long swords were quickly pulled out of their scabbards.
The next moment, before the Qin Army deputy general could reach Sun Boling, these long swords emitting cold light pierced his armor directly.
There was no turning point and no suspense. With blood flowing from the wound, the Qin Army deputy general finally fell a few steps away from Sun Boling.
Once again, he stretched out his right hand and slowly touched the eyes. Looking at the Qin Army deputy general lying in a pool of blood, another sigh came out of Sun Boling's mouth.
"The Zhengzheng martyr was buried alive and well together with General Bai Yu."
"Here."
After bowing and obeying the order, a Wei general came to Sun Boling and asked softly: "Sima, since our army has captured Wuzhi Fort, will we let the team sent back first?"
After taking one look at the other party, Sun Boling understood what the Wei general meant.
It was nothing more than seeing that Qin's reinforcements would move north in the near future, and he wanted to gather all his strength to fight the Qin army.
Shaking his head gently, Sun Boling said: "No need, as long as they are here, Qin will not be able to judge our army's intentions, and our army can deal with the entire war situation more calmly."
"In addition, send more scouts along the Longshan Road. Don't let go of any movements of the Qin army. If there are any movements of the Qin army, report to me immediately."
"The general will obey the order."
