Chapter 359 Determined to fight
On the banks of the Jing River, on the endless plains, red and ink interweave into a thick war song.
Both hands couldn't help but hold the halberd in his hand, the sharp sword pointed forward subconsciously, and a light full of fighting spirit burst out from his eyes.
"kill!"
When the strong fighting spirit turned into a cry of killing like a landslide and tsunami, the two opponents, Wei Jun and Qin Jun, collided together.
The halberd in his hand suddenly thrust out, and the sharp halberd blade directly cut through the black armor on the opposite side, and blood immediately flowed from the wound.
Looking at the scene that happened in front of him, the eyes of the Wei soldiers did not change at all, and the halberd was quickly withdrawn with both hands.
Without enough time to pay attention to the dull sound ringing in his ears, the halberd in the hand of the Wei soldier was thrust out again, and another Qin soldier became his target.
But this time, before the Wei soldiers could draw out their halberds, a cold light came from behind him.
The next moment, Soldier Wei felt a sharp pain in his back, followed by a fishy pain in his mouth.
Blood spurted out from his mouth, and the sword was pulled out from the flesh. The Wei soldier who had just been a hunter suddenly became the prey of someone else's sword.
When his body fell weakly to the ground, the person who fell next to Wei's soldiers was the opponent he had just killed.
Along the slowly flowing Jing River, people fell every minute and every second. Some of them were Wei soldiers and some were Qin soldiers.
The sound of weapons clashing continued for a long time, and the cry of killing lingered on the battlefield until a sound of gold rang out from behind the Wei army.
When the sound spread across the battlefield, the Wei soldiers who were in the middle of the confrontation immediately withdrew to the rear, while the opponent Qin soldiers also showed a rare sense of relief on their faces.
Today, they survived another round of testing by Wei Jun.
"My eldest son, the Wei army has retreated!"
From a watchtower behind the battlefield, looking at the red waves retreating in the distance, a Qin army general cheered loudly.
However, the cheers of the generals beside him did not seem to affect the general Ying Qian standing next to him. His eyes were always staring ahead, with an unbreakable solemnity between his brows.
Ever since he followed the army eastward out of Hangu to aid the Western Zhou Dynasty, Ying Qian and the Wei army had been fighting each other for more than ten years.
The disastrous defeats suffered by the Qin State one after another for more than ten years told Ying Qian that the Wei army was definitely not an easy opponent to defeat, but a powerful enemy that was extremely difficult to defeat.
Today's battle is just another test by the Wei army. You must know that on the other side of the Jingshui River, there is Wei State General Pang Juan and his 150,000 elite Wei army.
His eyes subconsciously glanced into the distance, and the solemnity in his eyes became a little more solemn. Ying Qian's left hand gently pressed the long sword at his waist.
"Order the officers and men to continue to pay attention to the movements of the Wei army and not to slack off in the slightest."
"Follow orders."
After walking alone in the camp for a long time, Ying Qian's footsteps finally stopped outside the Chinese army's tent where Duke Qin Ying Quliang was.
"Quliang..."
Ying Qian's voice just sounded outside the big tent, and the curtain in front of him flipped, and Qin General Ying Qi appeared in front of him.
"The eldest son."
After bowing to Ying Qian, Ying Qi glanced back subconsciously, his eyes full of worry.
Ying Qian noticed the look on his face and suddenly felt a little confused in his heart, "What's wrong?"
"Urgent report from Yongcheng, Your Majesty..."
Before Ying Qi finished speaking, Ying Qian passed him directly and strode into the tent.
"Quliang, Quliang, Quliang..."
Following the shouts, Ying Qian's eyes wandered around the tent, and he finally found Ying Quliang's figure in front of the map.
At this moment, the expression on Qin Gong's face was full of worry, even far more than that of Ying Qian just now.
Slowing down her pace, she walked to his side step by step, and heard Ying Qian calling softly: "Quliang."
It wasn't until this call sounded that Ying Quliang seemed to break away from his thoughts, and his eyes shifted from the map ahead to Ying Qian in front of him.
"Brother."
Forcing a smile, Ying Quliang asked, "How is the battle going today?"
"It's just another test by the Wei army, which has been repelled by our army."
"That's good. With my elder brother commanding me, I have nothing to worry about."
Although Ying Quliang said so, Ying Qian could see deep worry in his eyes.
"I heard that there is an urgent report coming from Yongcheng. What happened?"
Facing Ying Qian's questioning, Ying Quliang was silent for a while, and then handed the bamboo slip in his hand to the other person's hand.
"Yongcheng sent people to deliver this with all their might. Brother, please take a look."
After taking the bamboo slip, Ying Qian already realized that something might be wrong with the situation, but the content on it still shocked him.
Almost like Ying Quliang before, Ying Qian quickly walked to the map, his eyes quickly moving on the map in front of him.
It can be said that the current overall situation is completely unfavorable to the Qin army.
With the sudden appearance of Sun Boling's strange army outside Yongcheng, the Qin army immediately encountered the dilemma of being attacked from both sides.
In the front, Wei general Pang Juan led an army of 150,000 men, watching eagerly, and in the rear the capital was heavily besieged by Wei cavalry. At this time, the situation of the Qin army was even more difficult than when Pang Juan's army besieged Wei and rescued Zhao in the previous life.
Should we fight to the death? Or return to Yongdu immediately to help?
The choice of how to deal with this unfavorable situation has been handed over to Ying Quliang and Ying Qian.
Silence filled the tent for a long time. After thinking hard, Ying Qian slowly looked at Ying Quliang beside him.
"Quliang, the current situation has become clear. The entire battle situation is completely controlled by the Wei army."
"If our army wants to get rid of the control of the Wei army and even defeat the Wei army on the opposite side, there is only one way."
"That means using all your strength to fight a bloody battle with Pang Juan's army on the opposite side."
Ying Quliang on the side heard what his elder brother said, and the decision he had been unable to make finally came to an end.
On one side is the safety of the capital, on the other side is the current war situation. This is not an uncommon choice.
It's just that in the previous life, King Wei Hui, Wei Feng, chose the former, while the current Duke of Qin, Ying Quliang, chose the latter.
Ying Quliang knew very well that if his own army failed to defeat Pang Juan's army, then even returning to Yongdu would be of no use, and he would even be more passive as a result.
What's more, Yongdu has been the capital of Qin for hundreds of years. Where can the Wei army easily attack it?
Ying Quliang looked at Ying Qian with burning eyes, "Brother, Quliang is determined to fight."
"Fight, fight quickly!"
