533. the 533rd chapter covert operation
Zhang Yi ordered his entourage to take out a hundred gold and move it to Song Ying's house. Song Ying hurriedly declined, but he refused to accept it. He said, "It is the duty of the doctor to save lives and heal the wounded. Why did Mr. Zhang thank him so much? He was ashamed to kill me. He did not receive any rewards without merit. Besides, your wife also gave me money for treatment back then. I hope Mr. Zhang will take it back quickly."
Zhang Yi didn't say anything and waved his hand to signal his followers to withdraw. He himself flashed and quickly left Song Ying's doctor's shop. Song Ying chased him out, but because he was not able to move a hundred gold, he could not chase Zhang Yi's carriage. He watched Zhang Yi disappear from the corner of the street with his followers.
On the day of departure, Zhang Yi appeared at the northern gate of Yingdu on time. He saw that Jingchi was already waiting there with a team of about 200 people.
After meeting the two sides, Zhang Yi and Jing Chi got on the carriage, and a large group of people were winding towards the Fangcheng area of Chu. After passing Fangcheng and turning northwest, it was the Mianchi area of South Korea.
Because Jingchi was under the banner of Chu's support to the Chu army on the front line of Mianchi, when they marched within the border of South Korea, they did not encounter any obstacles.
Because Zhang Yi was anxious, he forced Jingchi to rush to travel in a hurry. The team slept in the open air and finally arrived at the city of Mianchi one day and one night. Zhang Yi did not dare to show up. The warriors in the former Qin delegation he brought were also replaced with the clothes of the Chu people, so no one recognized them at all.
The Chu army camp was stationed in the western suburbs of Mianchi City. They looked at each other through a small river from the Korean troops and were relatively independent of each other. As for the mixed formations of Qi and Zhao led by Su Qin were stationed in the eastern suburbs of Mianchi, some of the Zhao troops led by Ning Jun were stationed in the southern suburbs, and Zhou Shao commanded the troops of Yan to station in the northern suburbs of Mianchi.
The Wei troops among the six countries had traitors and the Wei general Duan Qisan was unwilling to worry that they would participate in the encirclement of Mianchi, so they arranged them in Xipi to be the rear of all the coalition forces of the Union Army.
When Zhang Yi arrived at the front line of Mianchi, Su Qin led the coalition forces of the Union of the Column to carry out three large-scale sieges against Mianchi City. The four troops started wars at the same time and advanced together. The purpose was to give full play to the advantages of the number of people, so that Sima in the city could not handle the situation, and thus reveal flaws.
Once a slight flaw appears, Su Qin will certainly seize it and take advantage of the opportunity to advance into Mianchi City, destroying more than 70,000 Qin troops in the city in one fell swoop.
After three large-scale sieges, the Qin army in the city was already exhausted. The heroes could not stand the large number of people. The Qin army was brave and desperate in fighting. However, the attacks of the Hezong coalition were more fierce and fierce again and again, and the Qin army could not withstand such torture.
When the third siege of the city, the city tower at the south gate had been occupied by the Zhao army commanded by Ning Jun. They were about to go down the city tower and open the south gate and put the large siege of the city. Qin army general Shi Hong took the lead and rushed up the city tower.
He disheveled his hair, regardless of his life's worries. The iron spear in his hand danced like a windmill, carrying five or six arrow wounds on his body, leading five hundred Qin soldiers to fight to the death, and finally regained the South Gate Tower and solved the urgent needs of the South Gate.
Sima Cuo later heard the battle report from the South Gate and was so anxious that he almost glared out his eyes. He stood up from behind the commander's case, wishing he could put on his own and sacrifice himself to the front line of defending the city.
Pang Ci was serving as a senator beside him. When he saw Sima Cuo getting anxious again, he was worried that his old injury would recur and vomit blood again, so he quickly reminded Sima Cuo: "General Sima, don't be anxious, you should pay attention to your health."
Sima Cuo realized his incompetence. He tried hard to calm down his anxiety, sighed a long time, and said, "How can I not be in a hurry? If this continues, the Hezong Army only needs to launch another large-scale siege, and our army will inevitably be secretly captured by them."
"At that time, I was afraid that none of my Qin soldiers could escape from this deeply trapped dead city." Sima censored, tears flashed in his eyes.
How could Pang Ci not understand the feelings of Sima Cuo? He also knew very well that if emergency measures were not taken, the Qin army in Mianchi City would not be able to escape this disaster. Pang Ci suggested to Sima Cuo: "For the sake of the present, it is not a solution for us to stay here. Should General Sima consider breaking through?"
Sima sat down by mistake, looked at Pang Ci and replied, "I don't want to break through, but once the Qin army leaves Mianchi City, loses the city wall as a cover, and is exposed to the wilderness, it can't stand the group attack tactics of the ant soldiers in the unicorn army."
He paused for a moment, thought for a while, and murmured to himself: "But sitting in the city waiting for death is not a way to save himself. I can't wait for the king to send troops to support him. It seems that we have to plan to fight to the death and break through."
Pang Ci was much calmer than Sima Cuo. He said: "I expected the king to sit back and watch the Qin army in Mianchi City be eaten by the Hezong Army. After all, these soldiers are the most elite troops of the Qin State. I also guessed that the king faced a major problem, that is, the reinforced Qin army left Hangu Pass, but it was difficult to break through Baishi City, which was defended by the Hezong Army."
Sima Cuo responded and said, "What General Pang said is very true, and this is exactly where my sorrow lies." He sighed again and said, "Oh my God, why did I blame you! I actually let me personally destroy the most elite army of Qin in a foreign country. If this is true, how can I see the king of our country!"
As he said, his right hand subconsciously touched the hilt of the sword under his waist. Pang Ci observed this detail and secretly worried about Sima Cuo. He thought to himself: "If the Qin army in Mianchi is gone, I am afraid that Sima Cuo will commit suicide. He really cannot accept this tragic situation."
Pang Ci also kept a scruple, determined to take control of Sima Cuo at that time and pull him back from the brink of death. Pang Ci comforted Sima Cuo and said, "General Sima, don't worry. I think the Hezong Army led by Su Qin's children was repelled after these three attacks. It would not be easy for him to organize a large-scale attack."
"The Hezong Army and the Qin Army are currently consuming each other and competing for willpower with each other, we cannot lose this tone."
Sima censed her, nodded, and said, "I think this is the only way. However, the reinforcements of Qin are also very important. I will arrange a captain to send a letter to him again, and urge the country to send reinforcements as soon as possible."
Just as Sima Cuo and Pang Ci were worried, the team of Chu troops led by Jing Chi and Zhang Yi had arrived at the periphery of Mianchi City. Zhang Yi specially asked Zheng Cheng, who was wearing Chu military uniforms, to send a message to Jing Chi, and suggested that Jing Chi stop the convoy for the time being.
Jing Chi received Zhang Yi's suggestion, but he was a little puzzled, so he came to find Zhang Yi himself and asked him what the reason was.
Zhang Yi sat in the carriage and never showed up. He invited Jing Chi to his carriage and said to him: "Doctor Jing, you must have heard that the orders of the king from outside will be unbearable. You went to the Chu army camp so big, called Qu Xin and announced the order in front of him. What if he didn't listen? He ordered the order, and the soldiers of the Chu army would not be able to kill you away."
Jing Chi is a civil servant and rarely participates in military affairs. This time he came to Mianchi just to convey the edict of the regent prince Mi Huai, and never thought about this problem. When he heard Zhang Yi's words, his face turned pale and asked hurriedly: "What should I do? Yes, if the young general Qu Xin does not listen to the edict, I can't do anything to him!"
Zhang Yi said, "So, Doctor Jing should act cautiously. Let's stop here for the time being. You send someone to the Chu army camp to find out the truth first. Anyway, you are all from Chu people, the same dialect and the same costumes. No one will doubt the people you sent."
Jingchi nodded deeply, so he ordered the Chu people he brought to rest in a valley in the southern suburbs of Mianchi City. Then, two agile and flexible soldiers were sent to the camp in the western suburbs of the Chu army to find out the movements of General Qu Xin.
About an hour later, it was almost dusk. Those who were exploring the information returned and reported to Jingchi: "This morning, the Chu army participated in a large-scale siege. The chief general Qu Xin went to the headquarters of the Hezong coalition army to discuss military information in the afternoon. He has not returned yet. It is estimated that he will have dinner at the headquarters of the Hezong army."
Jingchi hurriedly told Zhang Yi that the news. When Zhang Yi heard this, he was overjoyed and shouted inwardly: "God helps me!" He said to Jingchi: "Doctor Jing took this opportunity to go to the Chu army camp, summoned the generals in the army to discuss matters, and announced an edict to them. After General Qu Xin returned to the camp, we took advantage of the unpreparedness and took it down in one fell swoop, and the Chu army could successfully control the hands of Doctor Jing."
When Jing Chi heard this, he was also happy. He hurriedly ordered his men to quickly get back on the road and head straight for the Chu army's camp.
When they arrived at the camp gate, Jingchi sent people to show the highest edict with the seal of the king to the camp gate, as well as the tiger talisman for the dispatch of troops. After the soldiers saw it, they dared not stop Jingchi and his entourage.
Jingchi rushed straight into the Chu army's central tent. Of course, he also used the monarch's imperial edict as a pass. Facing the monarch's seal and the real tiger talisman, the soldiers all knew that this was a special order from the highest power, and no one dared to question it, let alone obstruct it.
After Jing Chi arrived at the tent of the Central Army, she sat down in the seat of the chief general, arranged a screen behind her, and arranged Zhang Yi to sit behind the screen. Zhang Yi whispered to Jing Chi and asked him to send a commander to quickly summon senior generals from the Chu army camp to come to the Central Army for discussion.
