General Qin

Chapter 370 Where is the false king

"Xiang Yan will be the last enemy I will fight in this life."

On the road west of the Huaishui battlefield, Wang Jian stood in the car, his white hair flying in the wind.

He is in very good condition, although he is old, but his waist is straight, and his old eyes are full of fighting spirit.

Because he is about to complete the final battle of his life.

In front of the car and behind the car is the army of the Qin State that can't be seen at a glance.

Thousands of chariots from the state of Qin had already set off to support Zhao Tuo and Feng Wuze on the eastern battlefield, helping them hold back Xiang Yan's tens of thousands of Chu troops.

Wang Jianzi marched slowly with 50,000 elite troops, preparing to sweep across the east of Huaiyin with the momentum of Mount Tai.

In front of Qin's army, there is no natural danger to stop him. Wang Jian's eastward journey can overwhelm everything.

"Defeat Xiang Yan, this old man's battle in this life is considered to be a perfect end."

"Xiong Qi is nothing to worry about, let Zhao Tuo and Feng Wuxuan chase after him, the old man can no longer make great achievements. After this battle, you can return to your hometown to enjoy the blessings. The garden house and beautiful land that you asked for from the king before cannot be abandoned. .”

Just as Wang Jian was thinking, there were cavalry galloping in front of him.

"Urgent report! Military emergency report!"

This is the messenger cavalry sent back from the eastern battlefield.

"Could it be that Zhao Tuo knew that the old man was about to arrive with an army, so he specially sent someone to invite the old man to attack Xiang Yan with him?"

"Hehe, this kid has always been clever and is very good at seizing opportunities."

Wang Jian smiled slightly, thinking that he had already guessed Zhao Tuo's plan.

Soon, after checking the identity of the cavalryman, the soldiers of the Qin army gave way one after another, sending a message that the cavalrymen arrived in front of Wang Jian's chariot, quickly got off their horses, knelt down in front of Wang Jian, and said excitedly: "General, Urgent report from the front! General Zhao Tuo defeated Xiang Yan's army!"

"Oh, when did Zhao Tuo attack... what! Zhao Tuo defeated Xiang Yan?"

Wang Jian had just spoken half of what was in his heart, when he realized it instantly, his old eyes widened, and he asked in surprise: What did you just say? Zhao Tuo defeated Xiang Yan! "

Even if Wang Jian fought half his life and saw all kinds of scenes, big and small, his heart had already been tempered and stable. But at the moment when I heard the news, I was still very surprised.

Xiang Yan, born in a family of famous generals for generations, with superb martial arts skills, is the pillar of Chu State today.

Even he, Wang Jian, must be very cautious in fighting Xiang Yan, and dare not take it lightly.

And what about Zhao Tuo?

A mere eighteen-year-old kid who has only fought for a few years can defeat Xiang Yan?

Even though Wang Jian had always been looking forward to Zhao Tuo and knew that Zhao Tuo was very capable, his opponent was Xiang Yan!

Just when Wang Jian was doubting, what the messenger soldier said next made him tremble in shock, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

"Xiang Yan is dead?"

"Zhao Tuo defeated Xiang Yan's army in a frontal battle, Xiang Yan was defeated and committed suicide, and the rest of the Chu army was being hunted down by Zhao Tuo and Feng Wuze..."

Wang Jian's eyes were a little confused.

Xiang Yan, who he thought was the last enemy in his life, was not defeated by him. Instead, he was defeated head-on by an eighteen-year-old boy and committed suicide.

You Zhao Tuo killed Xiang Yan.

Then what do you want me, Wang Jian, to do?

"Hehe...hahahaha!"

After being astonished, Wang Jian burst out laughing.

"Okay! General Zhao is so strong!"

"Pass this news on and let everyone in our army know that General Zhao Tuo has defeated Xiang Yan, and the main force of the Chu army has been defeated!"

After a while, all the 50,000 soldiers of the Qin army on the road knew the news, followed by overwhelming cheers.

"General Zhao wins!"

Amid bursts of cheers, Wang Jian's face calmed down again.

But he was still laughing, only this time, he was laughing secretly in his heart.

"Your Majesty used to rely heavily on Li Xin and supported the Meng family, but he didn't want to rely on my Wang family on the battlefield. Father and son destroyed the Three Kingdoms. Who would not be jealous of such feats?"

"It's a pity that Li Xin was too reckless and lost in the first battle. The king had no choice but to go to Pinyang to ask me to attack Chu. The 600,000 troops are in my hands. Although the king didn't say it clearly, he must have a feeling of uneasiness in his heart." , I can only reassure the king's heart by defiled myself. Even so, I often toss and turn and cannot sleep."

"Now, Zhao Tuo defeated Xiang Yan in one battle."

"I can finally feel at ease."

"I, Mrs. Wang, have nothing to worry about!"

...

Half a day later, 50,000 Qin troops from Huaiyin arrived at the Huaishui battlefield.

The soil here is red.

Although the corpses had been piled up together, stumps and broken arms from Chu people, as well as tattered armor and severed weapons could still be seen on the ground from time to time.

These are all worthless things, and soldiers of the Qin army are generally too lazy to pick them up.

Time and energy were limited, and what they hung in their hands and waists were the heads cut off from the corpses of Chu people. They were sorting out the points and handing them over to the military judge for records.

Zhao Tuo stood on the earthen platform, still looking at the scene of the Qin army clearing up and restraining on the battlefield in the distance.

"Our army suffered about 5,000 casualties in this battle. Six to seven thousand people from Chu were beheaded, and more than 10,000 people were captured."

She heard the report from Shejian, which was the general estimate of the military law officer in this short period of time. The specific number will not be calculated until two days later, but it is not much different after thinking about it.

"Five thousand casualties..."

Zhao Tuo nodded, this number is considered very low.

Among the 5,000 casualties, the wounded accounted for more than half, and the dead soldiers may only be two or three thousand, or even less than two thousand.

The reason why there were such a low number of casualties was mainly because the morale of the Chu army was too low. After Meng Tian flanked the Chu army, the entire Chu army collapsed in a short period of time, and did not cause any further damage to the Qin army. Completely turned into a chase.

Qin Jun chases Chu Jun, and if he catches up, he will kill, kill, kill!

The casualties of the Qin army were mainly concentrated in the fighting stage at the beginning of the battle.

"One will succeed and ten thousand bones will dry up."

Zhao Tuo sighed, but his expression was firm.

A general cannot have the benevolence of a woman.

When it is broken, it is broken, and when it is fought, it is fought.

These thousands of casualties are worthwhile, because of their sacrifices, the Qin army completely broke the last main force of the Chu army.

He even let Xiang Yan kill himself, which brought the battle between Qin and Chu to an end.

Once Xiang Yan, the last famous general of the Chu Kingdom, died, the escaped Chu King Xiong Qi was nothing to worry about.

"Priority is given to assigning the heads to those who have died, to ensure that everyone can be promoted to a rank. Even if they die, their meritorious deeds can be passed down to future generations."

"If there are no descendants, write down their information. Later, part of the war spoils will be distributed and sent to their families."

Zhao Tuo spoke calmly.

Even if the soldiers who fought with him died, they would never die in vain.

At this time, a figure strode forward.

"Hahaha! General Zhao, you are really good at fighting. The victory in this battle is due to your strength!"

Feng Wuze stepped forward with a smile on his face.

He couldn't help being unhappy, but this time they defeated Xiang Yan's main force, and even made Chu State Ling Yin Xiangyan commit suicide, which is a great achievement. Coupled with the merits he has accumulated in the Huaibei siege, this promotion is sure to be secure.

Zhao Tuo turned his head and laughed: "General Feng is absurd, this time the great achievement is also the strength of the general. If General Feng was not willing to protect the left wing for the boy and suppress the Chu army, how could An Neng have such a great victory?"

"What did General Zhao say? The general rank is higher than mine, so I should obey General Zhao's command."

Feng Wuze said it with a smile, and he looked more and more at the young man in front of him in his heart.

Victory without arrogance, respect without arrogance.

He is willing to give credit to himself after winning a battle, and treats himself with the humble title of "boy". Zhao Tuo's approach is really reassuring.

"It's a pity that I don't have a daughter in my family. Otherwise, I will marry this Zhao Tuo and make a good relationship between the two families. By the way, Feng Quji still has a daughter in his family, who is about to get married, or... Sigh."

Halfway through the small calculation in Feng Wuze's mind, he suddenly remembered that the young man in front of him seemed to have been favored by others.

Zhao Tuo didn't know that General Feng in front of him was worrying about his marriage just now.

He pointed to the black flag that appeared in the distance, and said with a smile: "General Feng, the general is coming, let's go and meet him quickly."

"Oh, alright."

Feng Wuze woke up with a start, quickly echoed, and followed Zhao Tuo out.

He looked at the handsome young man in front of him wearing a crown of eunuchs.

Feng Wuze secretly sighed.

He remembered the rumor, and could only suppress the idea of ​​marrying Zhao Tuo in his heart.

...

Half an hour later, the main force of the Qin army set up camp in a wide area near the battlefield.

As soon as Zhao Tuo and Feng Wuze walked over, he saw Wang Jian standing at the gate waiting for them with a smile.

"General."

Zhao Tuo yelled, walked over quickly, and saluted each other.

"Hahaha, our great hero is here."

Wang Jian laughed loudly, stepped forward to support Zhao Tuo, and said to the surrounding generals: "Look, this kid doesn't even have a few beards on his face, but he was able to defeat the magistrate of a country. He is really a hero." A teenager."

"What the general said is that the defeat of Xiang Yan by General Zhao in this battle is shocking to the whole world!"

"General Zhao, I am truly a hero of Qin!"

The generals quickly followed Wang Jian and made a series of flattery.

Although they were eager to defeat Xiang Yan's great achievements, but Zhao Tuo is now on the verge of taking off, they will not turn against him, of course they want to take the opportunity to treat each other well and show their intention to make friends.

Zhao Tuo smiled and exchanged compliments with the generals.

He noticed that among the generals, General Pi Qiang Li looked at him strangely.

Inexplicably, Zhao Tuo remembered Jing Tong's insulting words carved on the wood.

"For winning this time, General Qiang Li also deserves credit."

Zhao Tuo said something silently in his heart, greeted Qiang Li, followed Wang Jian and the generals into the camp, and reported the military situation this time.

After a while, the military report was completed.

The body of Chuling Yin Xiangyan was also brought over.

Wang Jian walked out of the tent with a solemn expression.

"Xiang Yan, I'm here."

Looking at the corpse of the white-haired veteran lying on the car.

Wang Jian suddenly felt a sense of sorrow for the death of the rabbit and the fox.

Xiang Yan is a few years younger than him, so he can be regarded as a person of the same era.

Although Xiang Yan did not have the feat of destroying the country as Wang Jian broke Zhao Shiyan, but he also followed Chunshen Jun of Chu State to conquer the east and west, swallow the Lu State, and take the east land, which is regarded as a great military exploit.

When Qin State sent Li Xin to attack Chu, he led the soldiers of the whole country, defeated Li Xin in one battle, and won a victory that Chu State had not seen in decades.

When Wang Jian attacked Chu, only Xiang Yan could stand up in the huge state of Chu and take up the responsibility of defending the country and defending the land.

It can be said that where Xiang Yan is, Chu State is also there.

It was such a character that even Wang Jian felt jealous of, but he was defeated by a young man like Zhao Tuo on the frontal battlefield.

Wang Jian sighed, stepped forward and reached out to caress Xiang Yan's eyes.

"Our era is over."

After this battle, not only Xiang Yan died.

Even he, Wang Jian, will leave the battlefield completely.

The world in the future will no longer belong to them old people.

Zhao Tuo and the generals silently watched this scene from behind.

Although Xiang Yan is an enemy general, his unyielding spirit of fighting for the country still deserves their admiration.

In this moment of silence.

Wang Jian turned his head and asked, "Xiang Yan is dead, where is the false king Xiong Qi?"

...

"Jiangshui."

King Qi of Chu stood on the bank of a great river, his hair disheveled, and he was in a state of embarrassment.

Behind him, more than ten Chu soldiers followed.

This was his last force north of the river.

Chu Wangqi stared blankly at the front, the river was flowing.

On the other side of the wide river.

It is the land of Jiangdong.
