He was the supreme commander of the Yan Army. With one order, the entire frontal battlefield quickly changed.
The deputy general in front was constantly giving orders.
The two wings of Yanjun's V-shaped shape began to retract toward the middle position.
The soldiers retreated while fighting, keeping a distance from the Xuan army. At the same time, they fired arrows alternately with their crossbowmen, blocking the opponent's position.
If you look down on the entire battlefield from a high altitude, you will see the Yan army with different armor colors. They were everywhere at first, but they soon retreated to the same front.
A well-trained regular army cannot be compared to a ragtag army.
After the battle situation stabilized and the two wings were no longer in danger, Yue Zheng waved his hand back with a cold face, waved the command flag, and the handsome car began to withdraw from the front line.
Where the two sides met, there was a distance of several hundred steps.
The ground was full of corpses and arrows, and it was like a river of blood.
Not long after, the Qin army also joined forces with the Xuan army from the right, and the battle lines were connected.
The Qin army came, and King Xuan was undoubtedly confident at this time. Seeing the Yan army retreating, she prepared to pursue him, but soon, there was an urgent sound of gold ringing from the right rear.
Yan Qi was beside him and couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, this is the signal from King Qin."
Enter when you hear the sound of drums and retreat when you hear the sound of gold. This is the unified action signal during ancient Chinese wars and operations.
King Xuan frowned slightly, and then said: "Withdraw."
"promise!"
One side was ringing gold, the other side was retreating, and both sides quickly withdrew from the battlefield like a tide.
The war stopped temporarily.
After Qin Xuan joined forces, his troops gathered in one place, which meant that Xuan's army safely reached Lucheng.
King Xuan's hanging heart finally fell.
In this battle, because Xuan's army was outflanked at the beginning, it can be said that the losses were serious. More than 20,000 soldiers died in the battle. Adding the previous losses, the total number of troops was less than 150,000.
Naturally, the Qin army also suffered losses, but they were relatively few.
Next, Xiao Yuan was not in a hurry to join King Xuan, but gave Su Yi another military order.
By the time the monarchs of the two armies met, it was already more than an hour later.
King Xuan was followed by a large group of generals in a hurry. After seeing Xiao Yuan, they stepped forward even more quickly.
She was dressed in brocade clothes, her hair tied with jade hairpins, she stretched out her arms, bowed her hands to Xiao Yuan and gave a formal salute, and said seriously:
"This time, without Brother Wang's help, Xuan's army will be in danger."
Xiao Yuan raised his hand and returned the salute: "We are all allies. This is what we should do. Sister Wang, there is no need to say thank you."
"No matter what, Brother Wang's kindness will be remembered by Xuan Guo."
King Xuan said, and said bitterly: "I just hate that old man King Huan! He really doesn't agree with me!"
Her words were very similar to Xiao Yuan's. The latter shook his head and expressed the same sentiment after hearing this.
"By the way, Brother Wang, Hongling, how is Hongling doing?"
Speaking of this, her tone was obviously tense.
Xiao Yuan smiled slightly and comforted him: "Sister Wang, don't worry, General Hongling is fine."
"That's good, that's good..."
King Xuan let out a sigh of relief subconsciously. After feeling completely reassured, she said again: "In addition, what are Brother Wang's plans for the current war situation?"
"Wang Mei chose to break out from the northern front. There must be a purpose, right?" Xiao Yuan asked with a smile.
"Yes, after the Qin and Xuan armies joined forces, they are now united. Brother Wang, we can counterattack Li Po's troops behind us." King Xuan said directly.
"Yes." Xiao Yuan nodded and glanced at her subconsciously: "On this point, Sister Wang can rest assured. The king has already ordered General Su Yi to lead the army to cut off the contact between Li Po and Yue Zheng, so that they can't Join forces."
"What?"
Hearing this, King Xuan was slightly shocked. He had arranged it in advance, but he had never told him.
Her beautiful eyes moved slightly, her thoughts were changing, and then she looked at Xiao Yuan faintly.
She just looked at him without saying anything, and fell silent.
"Why is sister Wang staring at me? Is there a flower on my face?" Xiao Yuan joked.
"Ah? No, no, I..."
King Xuan came back to his senses, felt a little embarrassed, and then said: "It is really a pleasure to cooperate with Brother Wang."
"What the hell, Sister Wang is serious, let's go back to the camp first." Xiao Yuan laughed.
King Xuan nodded, and the two began to walk side by side at the front, followed by senior generals from the two countries, and behind them, the armies of the two countries.
After returning to the Qin army's camp, King Xuan naturally went to Xie Hongling's residence immediately.
In the camp, Xie Hongling was still half-reclining on the bed to recover from her injuries. When she saw King Xuan, she struggled to get up, "Your Majesty..."
"Lie down, lie down, don't get up."
The latter quickly stepped forward, stopped Xie Hongling's movements, and sat down on the bedside. Like his best friend, he helped him straighten the quilt.
"Your Majesty." Xie Hongling shouted excitedly.
"The general is so injured, this king, this king..."
At this point, King Xuan couldn't go on. Her feelings for Xie Hongling were not just as simple as a monarch and a minister, but also included the worries and concerns of a friend.
After all, a woman's heart is softer than that of a man. Her eye circles were a little red, and a sour feeling arose in her heart.
Just at this time, Xie Hongling's medicine was brought in. Seeing this, King Xuan quickly calmed down, took the medicine bowl, picked up the spoon, and began to feed Xie Hongling the medicine himself.
That was a feudal dynasty. How could a monarch give medicine to his ministers?
"Your Majesty, you can't do that! You're going to kill me!" Upon seeing this, Xie Hongling panicked and began to struggle again.
"Lie down quickly!" King Xuan said pretending to be displeased, and glared at her: "With such an injury, it must be difficult to move, how can you not let someone take care of her."
"But my lord, you are the king and I am the minister..."
"Don't say that!" King Xuan interrupted him directly, and at the same time passed the warm medicinal soup in the spoon to Xie Hongling's mouth.
"Your Majesty..."
Xie Hongling's eyes were moist and tears welled up in her eyes. She lowered her head slightly and drank the medicinal soup.
Behind him, Xiao Yuan originally came with King Xuan. Seeing this scene, he walked out silently.
At night, the Qin army and the Xuan army mixed together, and soldiers sitting in twos and threes could be seen everywhere.
"Hey? Brother, thanks to your Qin army for helping me this time..."
"Where, the king said, Qin and Xuan are allies. Since they are allies, they should help each other..."
The atmosphere among the soldiers under the two armies is harmonious, and the relationship between the two monarchs is not bad, at least for now.
In a place with higher terrain, Xiao Yuan was standing side by side with King Xuan.
Looking at the wine in his hand, King Xuan couldn't help but say:
"Brother Wang, do you love wine?"
"In this life, without wine, how can we relieve our worries?"
Xiao Yuan glanced at her with a smile, then raised his head slightly and looked at the moon in the sky.
He hadn't taken a good look at the starry sky for an unknown amount of time, so he couldn't help but say:
"Thank you so much for the moon, I can't bear to be round tonight."
"Here, let's toast to the moonlight!"
His state is somewhat free and easy.
After hearing what he said, King Xuan couldn't help but move his beautiful eyes slightly when he saw his appearance, and said quietly: "I didn't expect that Brother Wang has such literary talent."
