In fact, there is another most important reason why Xuan Jian chose to betray.
That is Ying Zheng.
Even if Lao Ai succeeds in usurping the rebellion, he will still have to face a series of troubles, let alone a person like Lao Ai. It is difficult for him to trust him. Who knows if he did not mention that his son wants to continue to control him in the future? .
But Ying Zheng is different.
This King of Qin, who had not yet taken charge, allowed him to see many things that he could not see in the kings of other countries in Shandong.
Furthermore, Lao Ai's power comes from Zhao Ji. Although Zhao Ji seems to be temporarily controlled by Lao Ai, once Zhao Ji wakes up, can Lai Ai still win over Ying Zheng?
Back then, Empress Dowager Mi killed her lover King Yiqu for the sake of Qin and her son, completely annihilating Yiqu, a thorn in the side of Qin. But who was Lao Ai?
If Zhao Ji learns that she has been controlled by Lao Ai through illusions for a long time, and that Lao Ai dislikes him for being an old woman who is unwilling to even touch her, she will probably hate him even more than Ying Zheng, the King of Qin.
Moreover, if Ying Zheng wins, then as the King of Qin, his rescue will definitely bring peace to him and his son, and he may even have the opportunity to give his son a chance to grow up in the sun.
Whether it was for his own martial arts, revenge, his son, or the chance of winning, he had no reason to choose to help Lao Ai.
So, dry kill.
As the controller of the Eight Linglongs, Gan was killed, and the other souls of the Eight Linglongs were also severely damaged, and all fell into chaos.
Kun Po, who was the biological mother of Qian Sheng, fell into madness when she saw her son dead. She threw out all the poisons in her bag. The tide and Tian Mi were unable to resist, and the dark purple poisonous mist and pink purple poisonous mist retreated steadily.
But the next moment, a pink sword energy struck.
This pink sword energy did not gather at one point or in a line, but spread out, rolling up all three colors of poisonous mist and funneling it into the guards of the General's Mansion below the hill. The fog swept through the military formation under the guidance of the sword energy, and two to three hundred people fell immediately.
Things like poison, let alone in this era, are still extremely destructive weapons even if the time is moved back more than two thousand years.
These personal guards who have practiced hard skills are not yet immune to the poisonous gas. Facing the poisonous gas, other than falling down, the only option is to run away.
Even such an elite heavy-armored infantry would have its formation collapse when escaping.
Just at this time, there was a sound of horse hoofbeats not far away, and two large flags could be vaguely seen, with the words "Zuo Shuchang" and "Shangjun Wang" written on them.
It was a group of cavalry, and the one who bore the brunt was a young general in black armor, holding a long sword and with a resolute face. Neither Ji Wuye nor Bai Yifei had any impression of this young general. But the old general with gray hair and beard behind him, wearing heavy armor, holding a big ax, with a trace of killing intent in his eyes, was none other than the veteran Wang Ye who had had many confrontations with the two men.
Ji Wuye and Bai Yifei's eyes flashed with confusion. According to Gansha, Wang Yan was also Lao Ai's man, but he would not take action directly, but as a precautionary measure. Could it be that Lao Ai gave Wang Yan the order? An order to directly send troops to encircle and suppress Ying Zheng?
However, their doubts soon dissipated.
Because beside Wang Ye, there was a figure in black.
Zhang Ji!
"Quickly form a formation! Raise your shield to face the enemy!"
Although Ji Wuye didn't know what happened, he subconsciously ruled out the possibility of Zhang Ji defecting to Lao Ai, and quickly ordered the retreating guards of the General's Mansion to regroup.
The forward troops led by Wang Yan only had more than a thousand people, and they were all light cavalry.
Light cavalry is not a heavy cavalry. Although its maneuverability is far better than that of a heavy cavalry, its impact is far inferior to that of a heavy cavalry.
Especially the heavy armored infantry with twice the number of people attacking it. As long as they form their formation in time, the heavy armored infantry will definitely have the upper hand.
But Ji Wuye's shouts were drowned in the crowd.
The personal guards of the General's Mansion who were personally trained by Ji Wuye were indeed elite enough. Both the qualities of the soldiers and their equipment were among the best in the world.
But they lack combat experience, like a sharp blade that has not yet shed blood, lacking a kind of toughness.
This lack of resilience may not cause any problems in normal times and does not affect combat, but when it falls into a disadvantage, resilience becomes a test of whether an elite can be regarded as the top elite in the world.
Therefore, even the Wei soldiers who were personally trained by Wu Qi had accumulated experience by conquering bandits all over the territory of Wei and participating in various small-scale foreign operations. In the Battle of Hexi, they were able to use 50,000 Wei soldiers with five chariots. One hundred vehicles and three thousand cavalry defeated 500,000 Qin troops, creating the world-famous Wei soldiers.
In contrast, everyone in the Pingyang Heavy Armor Army was a veteran who followed Wang Ye and fought against the Zhao State. Even the current Taiyuan County was captured from the Zhao State by Wang Ye and the Pingyang Heavy Armor Army.
Therefore, the Pingyang Heavy Armored Army, which had fought hard battles, dared to face a weak situation, and coupled with Wang Ye's prestige in the army, even if it was to attack the enemy's heavy armored infantry with a mere thousand light cavalry from the scout battalion, these scout battalions Qingqi will also carry out orders without hesitation.
What? Is the opponent also an elite person?
What a fucking elite! What I am fighting is the elite!
Bai Yifei looked at the Qingqi soldiers of the Qin State's scout battalion, who were galloping towards them. Ji Wuye's personal guards had not yet prepared their military formations. There was only one way to save the impending defeat.
That is to let Bai Yifei's White Armored Army come forward and charge with these Scout Battalion Qingqi for a while, delaying the progress of this Scout Battalion Qingqi at the cost of a large number of casualties to the White Armored Army, and giving Ji Wuye time to assemble his army.
However, Bai Yifei hesitated.
These five hundred white-armed troops were his confidants and elites he had cultivated over the years. He was asked to sacrifice the lives of these white-armed troops for Ji Wuye... Even in this situation, Bai Yifei could not make an immediate decision.
And it was precisely because of this hesitation that the only possibility of reversing the situation disappeared like quicksand between Bai Yifei's fingers.
Meng Tian rushed to the front with Chang Ge in hand. Chang Ge stuck on the ground and provoked a guard of the General's Mansion who was trying to raise his shield to meet the enemy. He knocked the large shield from his hand and rushed into the heavy armored infantry. In the military formation.
With Meng Tian as the cone angle, the scout battalion Qingqi behind them followed up and tore a corner of the defense line apart. Wang Ye, who followed closely behind, followed up with a big ax in his hand. The big ax slashed down diagonally, directly splitting a large shield in half and the guards of the General's Mansion behind him, tearing open the line of defense again.
In the end, Zhang Ji used his internal strength to tear open the defense line three times, completely defeating Ji Wuye and finally forming a broken military formation.
This group of personal guards was completely defeated and began to flee.
On this plain, the light cavalry chased down the heavy armored infantry, just like adults playing with children, with no room for resistance or escape.
