"Winter! Winter! Winter!"

The dull and murderous sound of war drums resounded through the sky.

The War of Iron has officially begun!

"attack!"

"kill!"

Following Zhao Yang's order, the soldiers who had already been prepared to attack immediately rushed towards the allied formation on the opposite side.

The so-called "first to die" are soldiers composed of a group of slaves and prisoners. In short, they are death squads!

According to Zhao Yang’s promise before the war——

To defeat the enemy, the superior officials will take charge of the county, and the inferior officials will take charge of the county. There will be a hundred thousand scholar fields, and the common people will do business...

They slaves and prisoners can also be free!

"Fire the arrow!"

"Hush, rest, rest!"

Braving countless missed arrows like locusts crossing the border, the dead soldiers of the Jin army rushed to the front regardless of their own safety.

"Pfft!"

"ah!"

The rain of arrows flying across the sky was like cutting leeks, cutting off the dead soldiers of the Jin army who rushed over one after another.

Finally, the Jin army's dead soldier battalion successfully broke into the enemy's formation and fought with the coalition soldiers.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Yang also issued an order to attack.

"Second and third sons, follow me and kill!"

"kill!"

Zhao Yang took the lead and braved the rain, but the coalition's offensive was also very powerful.

Someone from the Qi army hit Zhao Yang on the shoulder. Zhao Yang fell to the chariot for a while and couldn't help but cover his abdomen and vomit blood.

You Wujie, who was on the right side of the car, quickly picked up Zhao Yang's body with his spear.

Zhao Yang then stood up again and continued to lead his army to fight.

When the officers and soldiers of the Jin army saw General Zhao Yang throwing their heads and blood like this, their morale was high, and they quickly moved forward to attack the coalition forces.

For a time, the coalition forces were suppressed by the Jin army and were unable to breathe. They retreated steadily, with most of them killed or injured.

"Quick! Hold me up!"

Zhao Yang ordered You Wuxie to support him so that all the Jin soldiers could see that he was still on the battlefield and had not fallen down yet!

"promise!"

You Wuxie didn't dare to neglect, and quickly supported Zhao Yang and stood firmly.

However, Zhao Yang finally left the battlefield early due to his serious injuries. The Jin army, commanded by Han Buxin and Wei Chi, pursued him. In the end, the coalition forces had to abandon their food, grass and baggage and flee.

This iron battle inflicted heavy losses on the coalition forces, and Zhao Yang, who had won a complete victory, did not dare to neglect.

The Jin army continues to confront the coalition forces on the Chaoge and Handan front lines. However, how long can the coalition forces, which have suffered serious battle losses and problems with logistics supplies, persist?

…

Jiangdu.

In the allied camp, inside the Chinese army's tent, when Qingji learned of the defeat in the Battle of Iron, he couldn't help but frown.

Of course, with Qingji's time travel, the trajectory of history has undergone major changes.

However, Zhao Yang is still the same Zhao Yang, a great hero of the generation!

That man can be called Qingji’s lifelong enemy!

"Gather all the generals together and raise the tent to discuss matters."

"promise!

Immediately, Qing Ji summoned all the generals of the allied forces to the Chinese army's tent to discuss important matters.

Regarding the situation of the Iron War, Qingji also told the truth and did not hide anything.

Because this kind of thing cannot be hidden at all.

After all, paper cannot contain fire!

"Zhao Yang led the Jin army and had an encounter with the coalition forces in Qiyi. The two armies fought in Tie, and the coalition forces were defeated. More than 30,000 people were beheaded and over 10,000 were captured..."

Qingji passed on the battle report in his hand, and then slowly closed his eyes. He seemed to be sitting calmly on the commander's seat, and said slowly: "This is not the most serious matter."

"Over at Qiyi, half a million stones of grain and grass shipped from Qi, as well as many military supplies, have been captured by the Jin army. The Marquis of Qi wrote to me, intending to make a truce and wait until next year to fight again."

Upon hearing this, the generals present could not help but change their colors.

According to Qingji, this is a big crisis!

Fight again next year?

Now, it’s already the end of July, so don’t we have to wait for the first half of the year?

In half a year, once the Jin State reacts, recruits troops again and recuperates, will the coalition still have a chance?

The key is that this time the anti-Jin alliance, which included 22 countries and more than 400,000 coalition troops, was still unable to defeat the main force of the Jin army!

Wouldn’t this bring down the spirit of all the countries in the world?

Let me ask, in the face of such a powerful hegemon, who dares to fight again?

"Wu Hou."

Zheng Boji Sheng frowned, stood up slowly and said: "Although the coalition forces were defeated by Tie, they still have some strength left. It is not a bad idea to fight again. Why is the Marquis of Qi preparing to retreat?"

"Since ancient times, how can those who have achieved great things give up halfway?"

After hearing this, before Qing Ji could say anything, Zihu, the senior official of the Qin State who was sitting on the side, sneered and said, "Uncle Zheng, it's not like you don't know the character of the Marquis of Qi."

"Although this man has great ambitions, he is also old. He has great ambitions but little talent! The Marquis of Qi does great things but cherishes his own life, and forgets his righteousness when he sees small gains!"

"It's not that the coalition forces can't bear the defeat in the Iron War, but who wants to fight to the death again?"

"If you want to fight, but you don't have food, grass, or baggage, how can you fight?"

After all, it is understandable that the Marquis of Qi is unwilling to fight again.

This cannot be blamed on Qi Hou Lu Chujiu being too stingy or timid.

In fact, there is no unity among the princes.

This can be seen from the Battle of Iron.

The ones who really contributed were Qi State, Wei State, and the Fan and Zhonghang families.

As for the rest of the Song, Lu, Chen, Xu and other countries, they were just going through a formality.

It would be fine if everything goes smoothly, but once the war is defeated and the war is unfavorable, how can the princes be willing to risk their lives when they consider their own national strength?

After Zheng Boji Sheng pondered for a moment, he added: "Marquis Wu, I think that if the coalition forces on the front line of Handan and Chaoge remain stationary and are only confronting the Jin army, I am afraid that the situation in Jiangcheng will also change greatly."

"The top priority is that our army should quickly conquer Jiangcheng!"

"good."

Qing Ji nodded slightly and agreed.

In the war in the Central Plains, the coalition forces were already at a disadvantage. Although they still had some remaining strength, it was impossible for them to take the initiative and fight against the main force of the Jin army.

At this time, only Qing Ji led his army to attack Jiang, the capital of Jin, in order to turn the tide of the war and give the Marquis of Qi, the Marquis of Wei and other princes who were looking forward and backward great confidence.

Otherwise, this time the coalition of princes can only stop here!

Fortunately, the armies of Zheng, Qin, Zhou and other countries who fought with the Wu army, as well as the Rong soldiers and horses, had more or less hatred against the Jin state, and it was indeed profitable for them to join forces to attack the Jin state.

Otherwise, at this time, the princes may break up their alliance and completely fall apart!

At this time, the coalition forces had been besieging Jiangcheng for more than twenty days. Although they had not yet captured the city, they had greatly dampened the fighting spirit of the Jin army in the city.

It can be said that the Jin monarchs, ministers, and defenders inside Jiangcheng were all at the end of their strength.

"Report——"

At this moment, a junior high school officer hurriedly entered the Chinese army's tent, knelt down on one knee towards Qingji, and loudly reported: "Your Majesty, our army's ranger scouts have captured dozens of people who came out of Jiangcheng.

enemy soldiers!"

"They all have letters asking for help from Zhongmou!"
