Chapter 777 The Road Out of Qin
On the other side, Wuling.
Peng Shuang's fifty thousand troops are stationed here, and they are the only troops that have not been mobilized.
Because this place is related to the security of the capital Qinzhou.
At this time, Peng Shuang was depressed and anxious.
He was depressed because Su Yi ordered him to station here, and anxious because he couldn't participate in the main battlefield.
However, a lot of the battle situation on the front line was transmitted here. He paced back and forth in the hall and said after a moment: "No, we have to do something. It seems useless to stay in Wuling like this."
Upon hearing this, counselor Tian Shou quickly asked: "What does the general want to do?"
Peng Shuang glanced at him and said directly: "I want to mobilize an army of 40,000 to attack the rear of the Chu army. By then, we can also support the main force."
"This, this, this, the general must not act rashly." Tian Shou immediately panicked, because as an army adviser, he had accompanied Xiao Yuan on expeditions all year round and knew Peng Shuang's character very well.
When the latter heard this, he said displeasedly: "Then you just keep waiting in Wuling and achieve nothing?"
"How can this be without any achievements?" Professor Tian explained: "The importance of Wuling lies in the capital, and the safety of the capital lies in our Daqin State. Why should generals guard Wuling? It is precisely because only generals can make Wuling impregnable.
ah."
After hearing this, Peng Shuang said angrily: "You civil servants are like this and that. A general should kill the enemy on the battlefield and make meritorious deeds! Anyway, now that Su Yi has surrounded the Wu army, what will happen if the Chu army stays there?"
An eyesore.”
"Haha." Tian Xugan smiled and said: "Same, same, the general's responsibility to garrison Wuling is more important than anyone else's, because this is the place closest to protecting the king. If the general leaves, Ling
The army suddenly attacks with surprise troops, what should we do?"
Xiao Yuan's safety was too important in Peng Shuang's heart. After hearing this explanation, he no longer felt impulsive and said immediately: "Yes, sir, you are right. The king's safety is the most important. Listen,
If anything goes wrong with you, our country, Qin, will be doomed."
"Yes, yes, guarding Wuling is the most important thing." Tian Shou secretly hissed.
At the same time, the Ling Army camped.
After Xiang Mo fled for his life, the only place he could go was to Huang Zu's side.
After hearing the soldier's report that General Xiang Mo of Wu State had arrived outside the camp, Huang Zu couldn't help but be stunned.
The deputy general said slightly worriedly: "Here, Huang Shuai, isn't this Xiang Mo here to challenge the army?"
After all, as allies of the Allied Forces, they felt somewhat guilty when they did not send troops after receiving a letter from the Wu army asking for help.
After hearing this, Ye Gui sneered: "How dare he!?"
"That……"
"Let him come in." After Huang Zu considered it, he waved his hand towards the soldiers.
"No!" The latter took the order and left.
By the time Xiang Mo was led over, the generals of the Spirit Army had already gathered, and many of them subconsciously placed their left hands on the hilts of their swords in a defensive posture.
Entering the tent, Xiang Mo didn't notice anything unusual. Instead, he quickly stepped forward, cupped his fists and bent towards the handsome Huang Zu, saying, "I've met Huang Shuai."
There were blood stains all over his body, and even a fool could tell that there had been a fierce battle before.
"Haha, general, there is no need to be polite." Huang Zuqiang smiled, then looked at him and said calmly: "General, why are you here?"
Xiang Mo said: "To be fair to Commander Huang, our army launched a battle in the valley before. I fought with all my might and finally broke out a bloody path."
"Then general..."
"May I ask Commander Huang if he has received a letter from our army asking for help?" Xiang Mo interrupted him directly.
"This..." Huang Zu hesitated for a moment. The other spirit generals were obviously agitated. Ye Gui stared at Xiang Mo, and slowly stretched his right hand to the hilt of the sword at his waist.
Huang Zu glared at him vaguely, then faced Xiang Mo and said with a smile: "The general doesn't know something. The Wu army is in a predicament that cannot be saved by the Ling Army. Moreover, all the Allied forces have been cut off from food and grass. This war cannot be repeated."
It’s going to be beaten down.”
"Even so, if our allies are in trouble, An Neng will just sit back and ignore it!" Xiang Mo asked loudly, having reason to be angry.
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Gui took a step forward, pointed his finger, and shouted sternly: "Bold!"
Following this movement, the sound of swords being unsheathed was heard one after another, and almost all the spirit generals had half of their swords drawn out.
Xiang Mo was furious, pressed his waist, and stared around: "This is unreasonable! Are you going to fight with the allies!"
The scene instantly became tense.
Huang Zu's mind was spinning: This Xiang Mo was the general of Wu. If he was killed here, if the news reached the ears of King Wu, even if the war was over, then the two countries of Ling and Wu would probably have to fight with each other.
See you.
Thinking of this, he quickly stood up and pretended to be angry and said: "What are you doing!? Put away your swords!"
The commander had the order, but the generals did not dare to disobey. They snorted coldly and sheathed their swords.
Then, Huang Zu looked at Xiang Mo again and said calmly: "General, don't be angry. All this is not what I want, but is related to the overall situation. I hope you understand."
With such an attitude, Xiang Mo also let go of his right hand and said: "General, I hope Huang Shuai can give an explanation."
Huang Zu thought for a while, spared Shuai An, stretched out his hand and said: "Please come with me."
Xiang Mo showed doubts on his face, but without any doubt, he followed him out, followed closely by the generals. Ye Gui never left Huang Zu for a moment, for fear of using force against Mo.
Huang Zu did not dare to kill Xiang Mo, because in his opinion, the Wu army and the Qin army should know that Xiang Mo was here, and this news could not be concealed.
The status of an admiral is very high, and it will definitely trigger a post-war battle. This is of great importance. As the commander-in-chief, Huang Zu had to consider this.
Under his leadership, a group of generals walked out of the military camp and came to a high ground with a relatively wide view.
Only then did Xiang Mo discover that the Ling Army was backed by an unknown mountain range.
The mountains and cliffs are steep and insurmountable.
But looking from a distance, one can see countless spirit troops hanging ropes and building plank roads on the cliffs, and the fortifications are about to be completed.
Seeing this scene, Xiang Mo opened his mouth wide in shock and stood there, unable to say a word for a long time.
Huang Zu pointed to the mountains and explained: "It took us a long time to find out that this place can be accessed from the Qin State. We have been building it secretly all this time. Once the Qin army knows about it, everyone will be in despair."
"It is impossible to march on this mountain range. We can only open up a road. Now the plank road construction is about to be completed, but there is still a cliff in this mountain. We are also thinking of ways to stretch the iron cables and lay wooden planks.
But we don’t know what’s behind the mountains…”
After hearing his explanation, Xiang Mo came back to his senses and said blankly: "Then, when we attack Qin, why not go through this mountain range."
"Haha." Huang Zu laughed and said: "Before attacking Qin, we built such fortifications. How could we not detect it based on the Qin army's military intelligence? This road is not the road to surprise soldiers, but the road out of Qin. Now Qin
