Chapter 505

The war in Jiameng Pass has ended.

The heavy shutdown has opened, and countless Zhao soldiers are pouring in. This pass did not stop the conquest of the Qin army many years ago, and now it has not stopped the Zhao army's attack.

This reminded Le Yi involuntarily that it was a sentence that his own king Zhao He once said: "Bashu seems to be a good place, but in fact it is a trap. If you cannot go north to occupy Guanzhong, then no one who ruled Bashu would ever be able to gain the whole world."

At this moment, Le Yi seemed to understand why his king said so.

Le Yi soon met Bai Qi.

There is a high platform about three hundred steps away from the wall, which is where Bai Qi usually uses to command operations and observe the situation of the war.

Bai Qi is still in this place today.

Le Yi came under the platform and a general of Zhao came up: "Hou Ying has met the general."

Le Yi glanced at the general and said, "The person is on it?"

Hou Ying said respectfully: "That's right, something strange is that there is not a single guard around him."

Le Yi nodded slightly and said, "You are all here, I can just go up alone."

Hou Ying wanted to say something, but under Le Yi's stern gaze, he couldn't say anything.

Le Yi stepped onto the platform alone.

On the high platform, Bai Qi was independent of it, staring at the northern sky.

After hearing Le Yi's footsteps, Bai Qi turned around and stared at Le Yi.

Le Yi bowed his hand and said, "Long time no see, Wu'anjun."

Bai Qi nodded and said, "Long time no see, I didn't expect that with your ability to Le Yi, you are still a senior citizen now."

Le Yi smiled and said, "The title always requires credit, right? After this battle, I think I can be the same as Wu'anjun."

"It's normal..." Bai Qi let out a light breath, and the expression on his face became a little complicated.

A brief silence fell on the platform.

It was Bai Qi who broke the silence: "Actually, my strongest opponent has never been you."

Le Yi laughed and said seriously: "In this regard, Wu'anjun and I have a similar view."

Bai Qi's face showed a rare smile: "Maybe this is the so-called relatives of colleagues. In fact, to be honest, in the past and many battles with you, I always felt that if there were no other factors to interfere with you, you would not be able to surpass me."

Le Yi frowned and said, "I can't agree with this point. I'm just saying that even without anyone's interference and leading an army of equal combat effectiveness, I don't think Wu'anjun can be my opponent."

Bai Qi smiled even stronger: "Because of heavy artillery and thunder?"

Le Yi shook his head seriously: "Because of myself."

Bai Qi nodded: "Very strong confidence."

Le Yi said: "My king once said that what a general should have most is enough confidence, and what should not appear in his mind is self-doubt."

Bai Qi said: "I admire King Zhao very much in this regard. If there is one person in the world who can be called the No. 1 general in the world, this person will be King Zhao."

Le Yi nodded sincerely: "At this point, I still have the same views as Wu'anjun."

Bai Qi suddenly laughed: "Look, we still have somewhere to reach consensus, and there are more than one place, right?"

Le Yi also laughed. This time, there was less ridicule in the laughter of the two, and more sincere.

After a while, Bai Qi said quietly: "Actually, sometimes I envy you. You have a wise king like King Zhao, a thunder, a heavy artillery, a Longxiong Army, and a lot of things I don't have at all."

Le Yi opened his mouth and subconsciously wanted to refute, but what he said was: "Wu'an Jun said it well. Confucius once said: 'If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools'. My king also said: 'The biggest difference between man and beast is the ability to use tools', and I agree with this."

Bai Qi looked at Le Yi in surprise: "Are you a Confucian?"

Le Yi smiled and said, "It's not considered Confucianism. Wu'an may not know that although my king set up a school in Handan and had the so-called "Hundred Schools of Thought", my king's real goal has never been to let any of them win, but to hope to gather the strengths of the hundred schools of thought for my Dazhao."

"Is it really an ambitious plan to gather the strengths of the hundreds of schools?" Bai Qi nodded and said, "If others say such words, this marquis must think that he is delusional, but if it is for King Zhao, it will be very different."

Le Yi said: "It's not that there is a big difference, but that it will definitely succeed."

Bai Qi smiled and said, "Maybe it is. King Zhao is probably the most amazing genius I have seen in my life. At a young age, he can not only govern the country, clarify the government affairs in the country, but also lead the army to fight without any disadvantages. Sometimes it really makes people suspect that he was born with destiny."

Le Yi said seriously: "My king is indeed the destiny of heaven, and Le Yi never doubted this."

Bai Qi glanced at Le Yi and suddenly smiled and said, "You may not believe it when you say it. Not long ago, this marquis also had the same idea about Ying Ji, the former king of the Qin Dynasty."

Le Yi said: "That person is indeed an extremely outstanding monarch, but compared to my king, he seems much inferior."

Bai Qi said leisurely: "Yes, success, defeat, bandits, all this has been the case throughout history. King Zhao once said: 'There is nothing new under the sun'. This sentence is clearly remembered by the Marquis, and they are often used to reflect on themselves."

Le Yi nodded and said, "Actually, Wu'an Jun's ability is always praised by my king."

Bai Qi's eyes lit up and he asked, "Take it serious?"

Le Yi said: "I will not hide it from Wu'anjun. My king once said privately: 'Although the world is big, only Bai Qi and the King of Qin can be called the enemy of me and the Great Zhao'."

Bai Qi suddenly burst into laughter.

Several crows hovering in the air were startled and flew away.

After a while, Bai Qi's laughter slowly subsided and said to Le Yi: "If you can get King Zhao's evaluation, Bai will be considered dead without regrets in this life."

Le Yi looked at Bai Qi quietly for a while, and suddenly said, "Actually, Wu'an Jun can still surrender."

Bai Qi shook his head slowly: "Bai Qi is a native of the Qin people in Guanzhong. Although Zhao State is about to occupy the world, it is not the only one who clings to Zhao State. Bai Qi fought all his life and was able to die on the battlefield today, which is considered a place to die."

After saying that, Bai Qi bowed to Le Yi: "I have to worry about General Le Yi."

Le Yi sighed and drew out the long sword from his waist.
