Chapter 633 Wang Ben’s complexity, Chu Jun’s insults, Yang Yan’s envy
"What? Big victory?"
Wang Ben, who was in the camp, received the news from the scouts. He stepped forward with a surprised look on his face, hurriedly took the bamboo slips, opened them and looked at them.
When confirming the above news, it was Bai Yan who fought with the Chu army at Puchun. The Qin army won a great victory. Lord Changping refused to surrender, so Bai Yan beheaded and killed more than ten Chu generals...
"Big victory!"
Wang Ben slowly put away the bamboo slips with a dazed look on his face.
Until then, Wang Ben finally understood why Xiang Yan was in such a hurry to withdraw his troops that day.
Sure enough, it was Bai Yan who saved him.
Thinking of this, even though Wang Ben was mentally prepared, his heart was still complicated and his eyes were a little guilty.
"General, General Bai Yan won a great victory?"
Among the many generals of the Qin army who were in the camp, Qu Wei and Zhu Guan looked at each other and looked at Wang Ben curiously. They had clearly deduced before that Chu General Xiang Yan would withdraw from Chu Dong, giving Bai Yan time.
It only lasts for two or three days.
Bai Yan actually fought head-on in just two or three days and defeated Xiang Yan's Chu army in the east of Chu?
"It's a great victory! The Chu army was defeated. Lord Changping refused to surrender and was beheaded by General Bai Yan!"
Wang Ben nodded, came to the map, and looked at Bai Yan's current location on the map, Fu Li Sai.
Although it was just a scroll of bamboo slips, it did not mention that Bai Yan was aware of Xiang Yan's intentions, but he looked at the location of Fu Li Sai, the map of the Chu army, and the location where Xiang Yan had previously been ambushed.
Wang Ben had already roughly figured out how Bai Yan could save him.
"Mr. Changping was beheaded by General Bai Yan?"
"Great! General Bai Yan has won a great victory. This means that the only Chu army currently resisting in Chu State is Xiang Yan. We can work with General Bai Yan to encircle Xiang Yan and annihilate him!"
"Yes! General, we may write a letter to General Bai Yan immediately and agree to encircle Chu General Xiang Yan!"
In the camp, all the generals of the Qin army became excited when they heard Wang Ben's words.
Thinking of the previous betrayal of Qin by Lord Changping, which resulted in 200,000 casualties among the Qin army, and now that after Lord Changwen, Lord Changping was also beheaded by Bai Yan, everyone was furious.
If Lord Changping and Lord Changwen had not rebelled in Qin in the past and Li Xin and Meng Tian were defeated, they would not have abandoned Bai Yan in a hurry and rushed back to Yingchuan to defend Wuguan.
Thinking of this, everyone looked at Wang Ben's complicated expression and guilty eyes, and everyone fell silent, not knowing what to say.
After all, in the past, their hurried retreat to save the Qin Kingdom almost pushed Bai Yan to a point of eternal destruction. However, a few days ago, Bai Yan saved them all in the hands of Xiang Yan.
They not only owed Bai Yan a favor, they also owed Bai Yan their life!
"Send this news to Xianyang immediately!"
Under the gaze of everyone, Wang Ben looked at the map and said.
Knowing that Bai Yan led his troops and was stationed at Fulisai, but did not defeat the Chu army in the east of Chu, he led his troops southward and continued to attack Chu, approaching Shouchun, the capital of Chu. Wang Ben relied on his own experience to conclude that Bai Yan
He planned to attack Xiang Yan and destroy Chu.
But for Xiang Yan, Wang Ben couldn't help but frown slightly.
Wang Bi, who has fought against Xiang Yan, is well aware of Xiang Yan's ability. If he is not careful, Xiang Yan will seize the opportunity. There is no room for carelessness at the moment.
In the tent.
Wang Ben came to the wooden table and picked up the brush and bamboo slips under the watchful eyes of other Qin generals.
While thinking about it, Wang Ben could only put his mind away when he thought of his previous guilt towards Bai Yan. After defeating Xiang Yan, he would see Bai Yan and accuse him again. At this time, Wang Ben urgently wanted to know what Bai Yan planned to do.
Deal with Xiang Yan.
A few days later.
Just as Wang Ben was sending a message to command the Qin army and waiting for Bai Yan's reply, several of Bai Yan's cronies, headed by a general named Feng Nian, personally took a scroll of bamboo slips. After meeting Wang Ben, they handed the bamboo slips to Wang Ben.
Wang Ben.
……………………
"Bai Yan, do you dare to go out of the city and fight? In the past, I heard that he led the troops and was powerful in the world. Why do you act like a rat in front of General Xiang Yan today? How can you be a real man!"
"Bai Yan! Rats!!! Let's go out and fight!"
"Bai Yan, could it be you? All the things you did in the past were all in vain! Bai Yan, you rat! How dare you leave the city?"
Fu Li, outside the fortress, led the Chu army several times to gather in formation outside the fortress. The mighty Chu army spread all over the plains outside the fortress and in the north and south directions.
However, no matter how the Chu army generals insulted, ridiculed, and even insulted Bai Yan.
Bai Yan has always been like a turtle, refusing to go out to fight the Chu army, and even issued a death order. Anyone who leaves the city without a military order will be killed without mercy, and his family, wife and elders will all be punished with the same crime.
Under the order, many Qin generals who were loyal to Bai Yan, especially Yanmao, Gui, Pei, Huai and other close confidants of Bai Yan, no matter how crazy they were, they did not dare to think about it again.
These generals of the Qin Army followed Bai Yan through life and death, fighting with swords and swords on the battlefield, killing the enemy step by step with bloody blood, and no one was afraid of death.
So when they heard those Chu army generals outside the fortress insulting and scolding Bai Yan again and again, these people felt even worse than being scolded themselves.
Those eyes were full of murderous intent and their faces were ferocious. If it weren't for Bai Yan's order, these generals might not be able to help but go out alone and kill those Chu generals to vent their anger.
"Bai Yan Rat! You are just a vain person! In the future, if the name of Rat spreads throughout the world, you will definitely make people laugh. Hahaha, Bai Yan Rat!!!"
Outside the fortress, a Chu army general once again rode a war horse and came alone outside the fortress, laughing loudly as he rode.
Hear the words.
On the fortress, many side riders and iron cavalry soldiers secretly took out their crossbows and looked at the Chu general with sharp eyes. However, the Chu general was obviously on guard and calculated the distance accurately. Even if many arrows were shot, they would not be hurt at all.
Even if it doesn't matter even a little bit, he will be ridiculed even more loudly by the Chu general.
"Captain, the Chu army is calling for formation again!"
On the fortress, a cavalry general looked at the Chu general who left after shouting outside the field, turned his head and looked at Mang who was approaching.
Not to mention this cavalry general, even the soldiers who were surrounded by dense crowds to guard against the Chu army's attack, all frowned and looked at Mang. In recent days, the Chu army's calls for formation have become more and more frequent, and the words on their lips have become more and more unpleasant.
The soldiers were worried that if the Chu army continued to make such a noise, it would spread throughout the world, and General Bai Yan's former reputation would be completely ruined and he would become a laughing stock in the world.
"Let the soldiers remember that man!"
Zhang's rough and arrogant face also looked depressed. He looked at the mighty Chu army in the plains outside the fortress, his eyes full of anger, but he had nowhere to vent.
"The general has an order. If the soldiers cannot keep it, they will chip some small pieces of wood, cut off a piece of clothing, wrap it up, and block their ears so as not to listen to the humiliating words of the Chu general!"
Mang sighed, thinking of Bai Yan's order, looking around helplessly, and gave instructions to all the soldiers.
Seeing the aggrieved and indignant looks on the soldiers' faces, Zhang was too lazy to explain so much. He turned his head and looked at the Chu army outside the wall. He looked directly at the Chu army generals and held them tightly with one hand.
Sword hilt at waist.
Two hours later.
Inside Fuli Fortress, in the Qin army's tent, Bai Yan was eating rice, millet and vegetable soup while looking at the bamboo slips in the nearest camp, the cold soldiers and the sick Chu soldiers.
"General!"
Mu walked into the camp and looked at Yanmao, who looked depressed, and the other generals. Then he stepped forward and raised his hands to Bai Yan.
"General, the Chu army has retreated!"
Among the entire Qin army, apart from Yang Yan, there were few people who knew about Bai Yan's conspiracy with the Chu gentry.
However, thinking about the humiliating words of Bai Yan by the generals of Chu during this period, Yan was still filled with anger and suffering.
"Okay! Then let the soldiers take a good rest!"
When Bai Yan heard what Zhang said, he didn't even raise his head and gave the order lightly.
Looking at Bai Yan as if nothing was wrong, he didn't seem to care at all about the humiliation, curses, and ridicules of the Chu army. Not to mention the generals in Yanmao, they all looked at Bai Yan with depressed expressions.
"General! When will we attack Chu? Now there is only Xiang Yan in Chu. As long as we defeat Xiang Yan, we will surely destroy Chu!"
Yanmao was a straight-tempered person, so he stood up directly, looked at Bai Yan with an aggrieved look, and asked with his hands raised.
Bai Yan could endure the Chu people's curses, but that didn't mean they could. Now the entire Qin army's camp was filled with indignation because of Chu's words, and they wanted to fight with the Chu army. It is no exaggeration to say that as long as Bai Yan gave the order
, all the officers and soldiers of the Qin army will fight for Bai Yan and fight against the Chu army.
"Since there is only one person named Xiang Yan, why should we be anxious? The one who is anxious should be Xiang Yan!"
Bai Yan raised his head and looked at Yanmao. As he spoke, he glanced at the other generals of the Qin army, who had been staying with him for a long time.
Bai Yan was helpless, these people were all straight-tempered, and they couldn't stand the slightest provocation or insult...
"But general, the Chu people's insults about the general are very insulting. The general is willing to ask for an order to leave the city to show his master's courtesy and duel with the Chu general!"
Yanmao looked at Bai Yan and asked again.
He went out of the city alone to fight the Chu generals. Regardless of victory or defeat, if the Chu army attacked, he could die outside the wall without regrets.
Zhishi means that the generals of the two armies each represent the army behind them in a separate decisive battle. This is a ritual of battle that has been passed down since the Yin and Shang Dynasties. Jiang Ziya's deed of Zhishi in the past has been passed down through the ages.
"The general is also willing to leave the city to pay tribute to the master!"
"General, please give me your order!"
"General, I would like to leave the city alone!"
Yanmao's actions made other Qin army generals in the camp stand up one after another, bowed their hands to Bai Yan, and kept begging.
When Bai Yan saw this scene, he froze on the spot. After a long time, he just sighed. When he saw Zhang Ye's heart-beating expression, Bai Yan looked at Zhang unhappily and frowned slightly.
When Mu saw Bai Yan's gaze, he put down the hand he had moved just now. He suppressed what he was about to say and turned around to leave the camp with Bai Yan's instructions.
Just at this time, Yang Yan came to the camp. When he saw the appearance of a group of Qin army generals, he looked at Bai Yan who looked helpless behind the wooden table.
Yang Yan didn't know what was happening. To be honest, at this moment, Yang Yan looked at Bai Yan with eyes full of envy, envy from the bottom of his heart.
Following his father in leading the army for many years, he once made mistakes. Later, he followed Bai Yan and finally made great achievements. Now with Bai Yan's help, he became the deputy general of the army. The same is true. Yang Yan knows and understands it better than anyone else.
The most precious thing in the world is not the golden gold, nor the stunning and alluring beauties in the world, nor the famous swords that have been passed down through the ages and have extraordinary meanings, such as the Zhanlu worn by Bai Yan.
What is truly valuable is the human heart. Bai Yan is now facing these generals who want to go out of the city to kill the enemy for Bai Yan. These generals cannot bear to see Bai Yan being humiliated in the slightest. Even if there are hundreds of thousands of enemies outside the city, they still want to be ordered out of the city.
action.
These people have status, their own mansions, their own rewards, and even their own beautiful wives and concubines.
Yang Yan once envied Bai Yan's talents, envied Bai Yan's ability to always turn danger into safety and repeatedly made military exploits. He also envied the king's unparalleled favor and trust in Bai Yan. However, later on, what Yang Yan really envied was the people behind Bai Yan.
"Don't mention the matter of leaving the city again!"
Bai Yan saw Yang Yan walking towards him with a smile, teasing and envy on his face. He ordered Yanmao and others, picked up the wooden plate on the wooden table and a pair of simple wooden chopsticks, and started eating.
Meals.
"A man can bend and stretch, but he can't stand this insult. How can he be a man with such a small belly? If you don't go to eat corn soup, are you going to be hungry tonight? Or are you going to go to the house of the widowed and weak wife in Sene to steal food?"
Bai Yan reminded everyone while eating, and glanced at everyone.
Looking at Bai Yan's eyes, they were obviously a little impatient after hearing Bai Yan's words. Yanmao and others looked aggrieved, but they had been used to listening to Bai Yan's orders for a long time, and they had never thought of disobeying Bai Yan's orders.
So after listening to Bai Yan's words, everyone could only feel aggrieved. After looking at Yang Yan, they turned around and left the camp unwillingly.
"How can they be so petty? They are complaining about the general!"
Yang Yan watched the generals leave and looked at Bai Yan teasingly. There was unconcealable envy in his words. Looking at Bai Yan eating, his eyes were full of naked envy.
"To go out of the fortress is to die!"
When Bai Yan heard Yang Yan's words, he shook his head and ignored the actions of Yanmao and others.
He picked up the food and went to the map with Yang Yan. After taking two bites, Bai Yan put the wooden chopsticks on the wooden plate.
"Xiang Yan is getting more anxious day by day. After learning about the situation in Chu, Xiang Yan knows that only by defeating the Qin army can he reverse the collapse of Chu and prevent the Chu nobles from leaving Chu one after another. Therefore, during this period,
Yan has always made the Qin army refuse to fight! Now I am a little worried that Xiang Yan may leave early before the agreed date and stick to Hui Shouchun!"
Bai Yan said, raising a hand and pointing to the location of the dirty water on the map.
"Tonight, Yan wants to send the prisoner camp to the lower reaches of the dirty water overnight, let them cross the dirty water river, and ambush them here!"
After Bai Yan finished speaking, he looked at Yang Yan aside.
After listening to Bai Yan's words, Yang Yan nodded and looked at Bai Yan.
"That's why Yan came here! News came from Chu Dong. In the past few days, the number of fleeing nobles in Chu Dong has been many times more than in the previous days!"
When Yang Yan said this, he also had palpitations on his face. This was the first time Yang Yan encountered such a situation. Whether it was attacking Zhao or destroying Wei, Yang Yan had never seen such a situation. Before the country was destroyed, there were so many people.
People, regardless of the occasion of war, make moves to move their entire clan.
As a result, in the Chu State, this situation was not only very common, but also not just one or two Chu gentry.
There are dozens, hundreds, or even more...
"That Xiang Yan will definitely leave early! I'm afraid, it should be within a day or two!"
When Bai Yan heard Yang Yan's words, he frowned slightly and looked at the map, thinking about when and how Xiang Yan would leave, so that the Chu army could retreat as a whole.
"Now we must let HP arrive as soon as possible."
Bai Yan frowned, thinking about the upcoming decisive battle, and couldn't help but feel a little solemn in his heart.
the other side.
Just as Bai Yan was preparing for the final decisive battle with Xiang Yan, the news of Bai Yan's victory over the Chu army in Pu Tunnel spread to Qufu like fire. In an instant, everyone in Qufu City was shocked.
No matter the scholars and merchants of the Chu State, or the common people and nobles of Qufu City, no one could believe that the Chu Army would be defeated so quickly. What made countless people even more unbelievable was that they heard that the leader of the Chu Army, Lord Changping, had even been defeated a long time ago.
Secretly, he obtained the long-lost square formation, and the result was like this. He was ultimately defeated by Bai Yan. Lord Changping finally refused to surrender to Qin and was beheaded by Bai Yan.
Everyone in Qufu City was confused, completely confused. People talking about this matter could be seen everywhere in the streets, alleys, tea shops, and restaurants.
What's even more outrageous is that a scholar from the Qi State who has just arrived in Qufu City in a hurried carriage is thinking happily about Xianyang of the Qin State, the reward from Yingzheng, and thinking about waiting to return to Linzi of the Qi State and go to Ji.
He went to the Xuexue Palace and asked scholars all over the world to break the formation. When he got the solution, he was the first to return to Xianyang, Qin State, and dedicated it to Ying Zheng.
As long as the formation is broken, from now on...
The scholar of Qi State was thinking happily. However, after entering Qufu City, he heard the voices of people talking in the streets and alleys, and the carriage just stopped. The scholar of Qi State forgot about being hungry and alone, and looked at the comings and goings in bewilderment.
The people of Qufu who were talking were listening to the latest news from Chu.
broken?
The square array was broken?
In the cold wind, this scholar of Qi State, who wanted to take advantage of opportunities and use his little brains, was completely messed up on the spot.
Inside the cabin.
Monument Ji also learned about Bai Yan's great victory over the Chu army in Putun. She thought about Bai Yan's appearance in Zhongwu City in the past, Bai Yan's actions when he got along with her in the past, and his visit to Qi State.
Worshiping the father.
After much hesitation, Monument Princess ordered her servants and maids to prepare to salute and continue setting off tomorrow.
"My lord, that General Bai Yan is so powerful! He actually defeated the Chu army in the Chu Kingdom territory!"
Mrs. Ying accompanied Bei Ji and looked at her with emotion.
As a village woman in a village, Yingshi had never seen a general who commanded a hundred people, let alone a general. What's more, the Qin general Bai Yan was a well-known Qin general with hundreds of thousands of troops.
Recalling that the entire Qufu City was talking about General Bai Yan, Ying couldn't help but look at Monument Lady.
"My lord, is General Bai Yan really so elegant and easy-going?"
Ying couldn't help but asked in a low voice. She had never seen any big shots. At this moment, Ying could only think in her mind, following those rumors, that Qin General Bai Yan was a majestic and unsmiling big shot.
"He is very easy-going. If you don't know better, you may not know that he is a great general if you meet him casually!"
When Bei Ji heard Ying's inquiry, she did not blame her. After all, boredom was boring, and she had always sympathized with this woman Ying who was also suffering.
Listening to Mrs. Ying's words, Beiji instinctively thought of the scene that night when Bai Yan brought him into the mansion and got along with her.
Monument Ji's thin lips curled up slightly. To be honest, when she thought about Bai Yan's appearance, if she had not known that the boy was Bai Yan, otherwise she would have met him somewhere else. She would not have been able to compare Bai Yan's appearance to that of the famous man who was rumored to be the best in the world.
Qin will put them together.
“Very easy-going…”
When Mrs. Ying heard what Lady Bei said, she was full of curiosity about General Bai Yan, whom she had never met before.
At this time, Mrs. Ying was also a little excited. Fortunately, if she had not followed Bei Ji, she, a village woman, would never have had the chance to meet such a big shot and a world-famous general!
