After the general reported and retired, King Ling still looked regretful and kept saying: "It's a pity, it's a pity, Mr. Cheng, who would have thought that King Qin would go to the front line to investigate the military situation in person? If we had known earlier, whether we captured him alive or killed him, the entire Qin Kingdom would be leaderless and in chaos..."
"The King of Qin has always acted strangely. He conducted his personal investigation and must have wanted to fully grasp the nearby mountains and terrain." Cheng Ping said: "But Your Majesty, we can only expose the flaw on the left side. Why do you want Kong Shun to surrender."
"Isn't this prepared?" King Ling said: "Now that Kong Shun has been captured, he must have revealed his intention to return to the barn, and the King of Qin always likes to cut off people's food and grass when using troops. After learning about it, he will definitely not be able to restrain himself. In this way, your plan will also Can it be implemented more perfectly?"
Then he added: "Now, we will set up a heavy ambush at the left stronghold and just wait for the Qin army to attack."
"But Your Majesty." Cheng Ping frowned: "If the flaw is exposed, the King of Qin may be fooled, but if you go through the Kongshun Grain and Grass Camp, isn't it a bit superfluous?"
"Master Cheng, what you mean is...that King Qin will see through this plan?" King Ling became serious.
Cheng Ping said: "I don't know whether I have seen through it or not, but with the treachery of the King of Qin, he will definitely be suspicious of Kong Shun, not to mention the advisers such as Shangguan Wenruo and Jia You."
"This...Is this unnecessary?" the Spirit King said in a doubtful tone.
Cheng Ping fell silent, of course he didn't dare to accuse or say anything else.
The Spirit King thought about it carefully and felt a little unsure. He tentatively said, "Now, should we change the ambush at the left stronghold?"
"I think it's better not to make any changes." Cheng Ping said: "We can't be sure of King Qin's next action. The ambush on the left remains unchanged. In addition, just in case, His Majesty will set up a few more ambushes, especially the right defense line. If the King of Qin really sees through this plan, he will most likely attack the east and the west."
This shows the level of Cheng Ping as a counselor.
"Well..." King Ling began to ponder upon hearing this, paused, and said: "Then follow Master Cheng's instructions and set up an ambush on the right wing, and at the same time notify Ye Gui that if the left stronghold is attacked, let him He can just encircle and suppress them according to his plan, and don’t make any other moves.”
In order to complete a better ambush mission, the Ling Army not only deliberately exposed flaws at the left stronghold, but also sent a general to take charge.
King Ling made a superfluous move, and Xiao Yuan decided to attack on two fronts. However, his adviser Cheng Ping calculated it three times and believed that the Qin army might have seen through his plan, so he added the right side of the main force and implemented a two-line ambush.
The first confrontation between Qin Ling's main force was about to break out.
It's night time.
Xiao Yuan led an army of 20,000 people, launched a surprise attack, and took the lead in launching an attack on Mengjin's left stronghold.
Half an hour later, Wei Qing led an army of 50,000 men and began to attack the right wing.
On the Qin army's side, this was originally a deployment to attack the east and attack the west.
Therefore, Wei Qing was full of confidence. After the battle started, he took the lead, holding a sword in hand and commanding from the front line.
The right wing of the Ling Army had a defensive line of fortresses, mostly built with fortress walls and barriers.
Under the night battle, the torches are bright and the stars are dotted.
Arrows were fired back and forth, and the scene was filled with soldiers' howls and shouts of killing.
"All soldiers! Fight the enemy with great bravery!"
"Starting from this general! No one is allowed to take a step back! Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!"
Under the fierce offensive, as expected, the right wing of the Ling Army seemed to be poorly prepared and was caught off guard. After less than two hours of fierce fighting, it was already in a rout.
After another battle, the entire defense line shook, and the Spirit Army began to retreat steadily.
When Wei Qing saw this, his eyes widened immediately, and under Zhan Jian's command, his roar became even louder.
"The spiritual army can't hold it anymore! Brothers, charge!"
"Kill--"
The officers and soldiers of the Qin army were also very excited. They raised their swords high and rushed forward crazily.
As far as the eye can see, there are torches everywhere and crowds of people everywhere.
The spirit general responsible for stationing here looked even more panicked, shouting in a panic: "Retreat! Evacuate quickly——"
The Spirit Army was defeated even faster.
"Don't run away, thief general! Kill him——"
The Qin army charged even more fiercely, swarming into the camp.
But as soon as he came in, Wei Qing soon realized something was wrong, because the spiritual army that had been fleeing just now suddenly disappeared.
In the entire camp, except for some tents, there was not a single person to be seen.
"Not good!" He secretly thought, and just as he was about to say something, a series of armor scraping sounds were heard on the surrounding walls.
At the same time, General Ling looked down from a high position, pointed at Wei Qing, and shouted in a cold voice: "General Qin under the stronghold! Today is the day you die!"
Wei Qing was shocked. He knew he had been deceived and would not stop anywhere. He immediately shouted: "Get out quickly!"
"Hahahahaha——" came the laughter. After the laughter, the spirit general also waved his hand proudly: "Fire the arrow!"
Following his order, the spiritual soldiers around the wall all bent their bows. In an instant, flaming arrows came from all directions like rain of fire.
This is a condescending shot.
The soldiers began to wave their sabers to block, and the clanging sounds of collisions were mixed with miserable howls one after another.
Large numbers of people were shot to the ground.
The Qin army was immediately in chaos.
And the rockets were nailed to various parts of the camp, causing a fire in an instant.
Then, there was the sound of the oil altar breaking.
The fire oil splashed, the flames shot into the sky, and a sea of fire immediately formed.
I don’t know how many soldiers of the Qin army were covered in fire, howling and running around in the sea of fire...
It was a perfect ambush.
There is no need to say more about the situation.
Wei Qing's eyes reflected the raging fire, and his eyes were already about to burst.
"Quick! Protect the general——"
The lieutenant screamed with horror on his face.
"Get out of the way!" Wei Qing pushed him away. As one of the Eight Heroes, he had experienced countless fierce battles and was fought hard on the battlefield. Although he was ambushed, he did not panic. At a loss, he pointed his sword fiercely and shouted: "All soldiers, follow me and rush out of the ambush!"
Under the command of such a general, although the Qin army had been disrupted, it still gathered strength and began to turn around and attack the village gate.
But if Cheng Ping planned this ambush well, he would not let him go easily.
The gate of the village was easily broken before, but now it has been locked to death when trying to get out. Outside, the spirit army's crossbowmen quickly gathered and were shooting random arrows.
"Kill! Get out of here——"
With a loud shout, all the soldiers of the Qin army understood that if they did not break through the gate of the village, everyone would die!
So, start desperate!
The people at the front were holding vertical shields, blocking random arrows, and also violently hitting the village gate.
There were also countless soldiers, holding swords in their mouths, climbing up the wooden stronghold and jumping out as if they were attacking a city.
But many people had just landed and were shot over by random arrows before they had time to dodge.
However, this did not stop the Qin army from breaking through the stronghold. The others who landed on the ground roared and rushed toward the Ling Army's crossbowmen outside as if they were desperate for their lives.
The battle was so fierce that it burned down the entire camp like a fire.
