Pan Jin was a native of Wu. He was short in appearance, courageous, good at riding and shooting, and had the merit of climbing first. He was deeply appreciated by the deceased old King of Wu, and served successively as Army Sima, Che Duwei, Huben Zhonglang General, and Qianyou General.

This is the only high-ranking general in the Wu Kingdom who is capable of doing so.

Because of the battle on the Yangtze River, Pei Zong and others all died in the battle.

Under the strong conquest order of King Wu, young people were arrested in various places. There were about 20,000 to 30,000 people in each county, and nearly 200,000 people had been gathered.

These two hundred thousand people were ordinary people. They were young, only thirteen or fourteen years old. They didn't even have military badges and armor, so they were taken to protect the capital.

At this time, these 200,000 young men, under the unified command of Pan Jin, were rushing to Luyang, because once Luyang was broken, the capital of Wu would fall into a siege.

Pan Jin's intention was obvious, that is, he wanted to intercept Su Yi in Luyang and break the Qin army's strategic concept of advancing in a straight line and approaching Wudu.

There is no doubt that the capital cannot be besieged.

As for Su Yi, it was less than a hundred miles away from Luyang.

Logically speaking, at this time, our side should speed up the march and compete with Pan Jin for time to see who can reach Luyang first and take the military initiative.

But Su Yi unexpectedly ordered the entire army to stay in place and rest.

Goldman Sachs was quite puzzled by his order and couldn't help but said: "Commander Su, your troops are very fast. According to intelligence, Pan Jin is approaching Luyang. Our army should get ahead of him and occupy all the important roads. Once he lets him If we seize the opportunity, our army will most likely be intercepted outside Luyang. By then, we will not be able to attack the capital of Wu. Why is Commander Su resting and recuperating at this time?"

"You are right." Su Yi did not refute his point of view, but said: "But even if we occupy Luyang first, so what, the result can only be that Pan Jin retreats to Wudu, or in other words, these 200,000 The young and strong people scattered and entangled with us on every road."

"This is not what I want to see."

"Shuai Su, are you deliberately waiting for Pan Jin to gather his troops?" Goldman Sachs asked.

"That's right." Su Yi said: "It is impossible for Wu State to give up Luyang. Since they want to use Luyang as the last line of defense, then we will give them this opportunity and let all these 200,000 young people gather here for another battle. And destroyed."

His tone was calm. After hearing this, Goldman Sachs couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Su Yi doesn't want to get too entangled with Pan Jin. To put it bluntly, he wants to give you time to gather before forcing you to fight.

After telling Goldman Sachs, he added: "Give me the order, take out the stored wine and meat, let the soldiers eat and drink enough, have a good rest, and recharge their batteries. In two days, we will go straight to the Bailang Mountain Plain."

"Pan Jin can't just watch us pass by. He has no choice but to intercept us here."

After the order was issued, one hundred thousand Qin troops began to rest more than a hundred miles away from Luyang.

Pan Jin went there and successfully settled in Luyang.

At first, he was a little happy about the fight for belonging to Luyang, but soon he faced a difficult choice.

Two days later, the Qin army arrived near Luyang, but instead of launching an offensive against Luyang, they directly bypassed the city and marched towards the Bailang Mountain area next to it.

At this time, Pan Jinde decided whether to send troops to intercept.

Just continue to stay in Luyang City. Su Yili probably won't pay attention to him. He will attack your capital as soon as he passes Bailang Mountain.

If we send troops to intercept, we have to face these 100,000 Qin troops head-on.

The civilian officer in the army suggested: "General, although our troops are twice as many as the enemy's, the enemy's force is strong, so it should be used as a harassment tactic and cannot be blunted."

"Sir, what do you mean, do you want me to watch Su Yi's troops approach the capital?" Pan Jin said: "We are stationed in Luyang to ensure that the capital is safe. If the country is not safe, why should we fight?"

"But general, if we send troops to intercept, we will have to face the Qin army. This is very dangerous." The civilian official said worriedly.

"Well..." Pan Jin frowned, and after thinking carefully, he said: "Although we are not strong enough, we have no way and cannot put the capital into a crisis. We can only hold Su Yi in the Bailang Mountain area."

"As long as the capital is not lost and the country is still there, with the population of Wu, we can continue to recruit soldiers."

Wu Guo can only repay this hope now.

Pan Jin also had no choice.

Two days later, Bailang Mountain Plain.

On the vast land, the armies of both sides faced off.

Two hundred thousand young men, although they all had sabers and crossbows, many of them were still clothed in cloth, and their formation had no military appearance at all, and was extremely messy.

This is a temporary force that has never been on the battlefield and has no military training.

The sound of the neat steps of the infantry made the ground seem to start to tremble.

The officers and soldiers of the Qin army marched forward with their halberds in a horizontal and vertical line.

After reaching a certain distance, they all stopped. The heavy shields in the front row hit the ground, and the halberds were like thorns.

Black armor and red tassels, flags blocking out the sun, and a chilling atmosphere filled the whole place.

Looking at this scene, facing so many regular troops, many people on the young and strong side couldn't help but have their Adam's apple slide and secretly swallow their saliva. Although they were holding spears and other weapons in their hands, they could not help but start to move back under their feet. Step by step.

The two sides haven't even started fighting yet, but their momentum has already been crushed.

Pan Jin rode his war horse, glared and shouted: "Don't be afraid! The Qin army is also a human being! Kill them all! You will be the heroes of the country! From now on, you will enjoy endless glory and wealth!"

Although they are encouraging, on the real battlefield, the timidity of civilians cannot be suppressed.

It would be strange if a common man who has never experienced war is not afraid when faced with an army of tigers and wolves!

On the side of the Qin army, Su Yi was also riding a war horse. He had no intention of wasting time with Pan Jin. He directly drew his war sword and shouted in a loud voice:

"Arrow formation ready!"

Following his order, the flags waved, and all the generals drew their swords.

"Arrow array preparation——"

Wow! Wow!

The sound of armor scraping together became one. The soldiers of the Qin army drew their bows in unison and pointed upward diagonally.

"Fire the arrow——"

The command flag was waved, and all the generals pointed their swords at the same time.

Thousands of people fired a volley, and the bowstrings tightened almost simultaneously. The air seemed to be torn apart by the powerful shots.

Buzz!

An arrow array of this size was like a black cloud, suddenly rising from the top of the Qin army, blocking the sun in the sky.

When he looked up, he saw black arrows like thorns, and his eyes were filled with dense black dots.

This scene made many people open their eyes in horror, and for a moment, they were all stunned on the spot.

But they were frightened, and the terrifying black scene came in an instant.

Overwhelming, sweeping down!

Plop, plop!

The sound of arrows piercing flesh was heard instantly, and it became a continuous sound, mixed with one after another miserable howls.

In an instant, how many people were nailed into hedgehogs. On the ground, corpses were scattered all over the field, blood flowed into rivers, and arrows were stabbed all over the ground, which was shocking.

Cries and screams filled the entire young camp.
