Ji Jie's strength has greatly increased, and the one who has made the greatest contribution is Sima Xueran.
It was she who obtained the information about the Qin people's bribery of Ji Jia. If this information had not come in time, let alone the plan, it is estimated that the current masters of Zhaocheng and Longcheng are no longer Ji Jie.
No, Ji Jie came to her specifically to express his gratitude.
"Is there anyone like you who comes to thank me like this?" Sima Xueran said coquettishly. As soon as Ji Jie came in, he couldn't help but pick her up and let her sit on his lap.
Of course, Ji Jie's hands were not idle. He put his hands into Sima Xueran's clothes and climbed all the way up, quickly climbing up the two tall "peaks".
"Hehe, this is the highest level of gratitude. You see, I can't wait to agree to it!" Ji Jie said with a bad smile: "Such treatment is not something just anyone can ask for. You should feel honored.
!”
"Bah, bah, bah, I'm honored!" Sima Xueran grabbed his evil hand and said in a pleading tone: "Brother Jie, don't be like this, okay? You should spend more time with Sister Xue Ling, she has been depressed these days.
, my father died, and my brother colluded with the Qin people, these are all big blows. Instead of trying to infiltrate me every day, people who don’t know will misunderstand that I am taking advantage of your corner!"
Ji Jie was stunned, thinking that this girl had a lot on her mind, and her words made some sense.
"Okay then!" Ji Jie took a deep breath, and the fire of desire in his body subsided instantly. Anyway, Sima Xueran will be his own sooner or later, so there is no need to rush for a while.
…
The army suffered more than 20,000 losses, and the pioneer general Sima Jin died in battle. The King of Qin was furious and directly dismissed General Meng Ao from his post, and sent young general Wang Jian to succeed him, and promised to send reinforcements within half a month.
In the past few days before Wang Jian came to take over, Meng Ao still commanded the entire army. He ordered his troops to return to the royal city and wait for Wang Jian's arrival.
Meng Ao was beaten down, and Sima Jing naturally suffered no good consequences. Fortunately, Lu Buwei protected the two of them, so they were not punished.
Ji Jie sent people to harass along the way. The Qin army was in a hurry, leaving behind a lot of equipment and equipment, and fled to the royal city in a hurry, huddled inside and refused to fight.
The time for counterattack finally arrived. Ji Jie called brothers Zhao Ling, Ji Jian, Xiong Bi and Xiong Ba to issue combat orders.
"Xiong Ba, brother Xiong Ben, obey your orders!"
"My subordinate is here!"
"The two of you will lead four thousand elite soldiers and quietly enter the royal city tonight through the tunnel dug last time!" Ji Jie pointed to the sand table model in front of him and said, "Then each will lead two thousand people, one to kill towards the south gate and the other towards the south gate.
East Gate, try to capture the city gate in the shortest possible time!"
"Got the order!"
"Ji Jian, Zhao Ling obeys the order!"
"The end is here!"
"You two each bring 5,000 troops. Tonight at Yin Shi, you will station troops at the south gate and east gate of the royal city. When Xiong Ba and Xiong Ben open the city gates, you should cooperate inside and outside to capture the royal city!"
"Got the order!"
…
When six thousand elite soldiers appeared in the royal city, the Qin army who was still sleeping soundly was dumbfounded. In their opinion, these people simply fell from the sky.
Under the leadership of Xiong Ba and Xiong Bi, they slashed and killed the Qin army, and then one of them went south and the other went east. The unprepared Qin army was unable to stop effective resistance. In addition, these two men were naturally brave, and they were like no one.
realm.
Meng Ao rushed out of the Chinese army tent in disheveled clothes and shouted: "Hold it, hold it!"
Meng Ao has a habit of never taking off his armor during battles. This time is an exception. He is no longer a general. The only reason why he is still here is to wait for Wang Jian's arrival. Since he no longer has the right to lead troops, he also
That means he has nothing to do with this battle.
A general ran over in panic and said: "Report to the general, the south gate and east gate have been occupied by Ji Jie's people. They opened the city gate and the enemy troops rushed in!"
"What, the south gate and the east gate were lost? How many enemies are there?" Meng Ao was surprised. It only took a moment from the cry of killing to the present to capture the two city gates. How could Ji Jie's soldiers be so brave?
!
"No less than 20,000! General, withdraw quickly. If you don't withdraw, everyone will die here!"
Meng Ao smiled bitterly and thought that Ji Jie must have devoured Ji Jia's Zhou army. Otherwise, where did he get so many people?
"General, the situation is critical, we can no longer hesitate!"
Meng Ao waved his hand and made a difficult decision: "Evacuate, take the North Gate and West Gate, everyone will go separately and meet at the Daqin Border City!"
"yes!"
It's so easy to leave. Ji Jie also sent Sima Xueran and Ji Xueling to ambush outside the north gate and west gate with 3,000 men each. The Qin troops who rushed out were mostly sporadic and small groups with weak combat effectiveness. The two of them could easily deal with it.
.
First there was a killing spree in the city, and then there was a blockade outside the city. The Qin army suffered heavy losses. Under the protection of a group of generals, Meng Ao broke through the siege and fled towards the border city.
This battle lasted until dawn. The Qin army left behind more than 10,000 corpses and more than 3,000 prisoners. The peripheral blockade was very effective, killing thousands of people. The remaining soldiers who fled back to the border town were less than 10,000 defeated generals.
.
Such a result was enough to shock everyone. Xiaozhao City was able to defeat the 50,000 tiger and wolf Qin army. When this incident spread to the Six Kingdoms, everyone's first feeling was - you are kidding, don't
Speaking of Zhaowenjun, the entire Zhou Dynasty was no match for Qin. How could he possibly defeat the Qin army and win completely!
Ji Jian pointed at the piles of Qin army's baggage and said with a smile: "What a good plan, your Majesty. You can win the battle in one battle! If you ask me, I shouldn't have left the thousands of defenders of Zhaocheng and Longcheng behind to attack together."
If we come up here, we will definitely wipe them all out!"
Ji Jie shook his head and said: "It's not as simple as you think. It's not that I don't want to devour them all, but we don't have such a big appetite yet!"
Ji Jie's worry is not unreasonable. Although sneak attacks are a big advantage and blocking the four city gates is a trivial matter, the Qin army's combat effectiveness is obvious to all. Once it becomes a fight between trapped beasts, they will hold on even if they die.
You also have to think of something as a backstop. In this case, your own casualties will rise sharply.
Leaving two city gates for them gave them hope of escaping. Since there was a way to survive, who would risk their lives? In fact, many people died in confusion on the way to escape.
Furthermore, the result of total annihilation will be very serious. The generals of Qin and Ji Jie are sworn in. Just like the Battle of Changping, Zhao soldiers were all killed after they surrendered, which directly led to the irresolvable feud between the two countries. Speaking of Qin people,
, any Zhao people will gnash their teeth.
Although Ji Jie's strength has developed rapidly in a short period of time, it is still too early to use it against the powerful Qin State. The most important thing now is to develop steadily and gradually expand his power instead of making enemies everywhere.
The King of Qin had just ascended the throne, and the country was not very stable. The Qin army was defeated, and thousands of people were captured. The anti-war faction would definitely take the opportunity to gain the upper hand. Then they could use these thousands of prisoners as capital to force the King of Qin to negotiate for peace.
