"Huh..." After breathing a sigh of relief, Master Zhou said sincerely: "You are better than you! This Yang Yanzhao cleverly used the urn city and gave us such a big trap. He took the lead of troops to fight. I admit that Master Zhou has been fighting for a lifetime. I didn't expect that when I get old, he is not as good as such a little baby who leads troops for the first time. Yang Yanzhao, a talent!"

Master Zhou fought countless battles and believed that he had encountered countless powerful enemies. However, this time, he was defeated and he was convinced and said with great stinginess: "Second son, he will definitely become the biggest enemy of our Great Zhou unified Jiuzhou in the future."

Everyone present was stunned for a moment. They didn't expect that Master Zhou would give Yang Yanzhao such a high evaluation.

Qin Ming tilted his head, "Grandpa, I think Yang Yanzhao is not as good as you said. Indeed, on the surface, he did win, but I think the problem is that you should not order the withdrawal of troops. Even if the Jiangcheng is burned into an iron furnace?

It’s not possible to go south, there are east, west and north sides. We can completely take down the city directly in one go. As for now, we have only lost more than 50,000 people in total, but we still have more than one million!"

"You don't feel dead enough, do you?"

Master Zhou looked at Qin Ming and said coldly: "More than 50,000 people, standing hand in hand, can surrounded Lingcheng many times. Moreover, Lingcheng is just one of our first battle points. Our real destination is Changping, the entire Qin State. A total of 50,000 were buried under Lingcheng. Isn't there enough?"

"I..." Qin Ming wanted to say that there were no one who could not die? Is there a lot of 50,000 people?

They had more than one million troops! But he noticed that Master Zhou was obviously angry and dared not say more.

"If there are reinforcements in Lingcheng, such as border troops or large troops from other provinces, I don't mind the bloody battle in this battle. But the problem is that there are only 200,000 guards and 300,000 guards in Red River Province. This little manpower alone will have caused us to suffer heavy losses. The pace of the army's advance in the Great Zhou Dynasty must not be delayed because of a small Lingcheng."

Master Zhou stood up with a serious expression, "Order!"

As soon as these words were spoken, all the generals were focused.

"The battle in the early morning allowed us to see the terror of Yang Yanzhao, the rising star of Qin, and also allowed us to see the arrows of Qin and the city-guarding skills of Qin. However, our Great Zhou led a million troops to help Qin Ming take back the position of Chief of Qin, and we must not give up halfway."

"I enthroned Zhou Dehua as the commander of Pingxi, leading 300,000 troops westward into the Huaihe Province. I have received the news that the Huaihe Province at this time, except for Huaicheng, no longer has the vitality to stop our army's attack. However, the Chu State in Huaicheng will naturally help us siege. You do not need to participate. You only need to enter the Huaihe Province and approach the western Han Dynasty to support the war, expand your troops, rob food and grass, and then meet with the army to join the Longzhong Province."

"The last general is the order."

"The enthronement of Zhou Defang as the commander of Pingdong, led 200,000 troops and horses to leave the Huaihe Province, and first entered the Handong Province to support the war."

"Commander..." Zhou Defang did not immediately receive the order, but said strongly: "The last general is willing to lead 100,000 troops to guard the Huaihe Province. As long as Yang Yanzhao dares to lead the troops out, the last general will be killed by the horse."

"It's not your turn to decide. The war is imminent, so how can you take revenge on your own?"

"This is not avenging private revenge. Lingcheng has not been taken down for one day, but it is a cancer that our Great Zhou attacks Changping. If this cancer is not removed, it will sooner or later become a disaster. Therefore, Lingcheng must keep people. The general is willing to stay and besiege Lingcheng. If there is any mistake, the general is willing to come and see him."

"I said it, you have no choice but to do this!"

Master Zhou strengthened his tone and said loudly: "This is an order."

"Okay, the last general... the Lord's order."

Zhou Defang was reluctant and could only accept the order honestly.

"The city of Lingcheng cannot be without any guards."

Master Zhou looked at the other generals present, "But our main purpose is to take over the entire Qin State. The city of Lingcheng and Huaicheng is strong and should not be kept for a long time, but we should not ignore it. Whoever wants to stay and surround Lingcheng is not to take down Lingcheng, but to completely separate Lingcheng and not give Yang Yanzhao the opportunity to lead troops to support the front line."

"The last general Zhou Deqiang is willing to stay!"

Zhou Deqiang hurriedly knelt on one knee.

"How many people do you want?"

"Hundreds of thousands!"

"No, I will give you a maximum of 50,000. If you are sure to use 50,000 troops to stop Yang Yanzhao from supporting the front line, I will hand over this important task to you."

"This..." Zhou Deqiang looked like a crisis. In the battle of Lingcheng, 50,000 soldiers had been lost. Now he still wants to use 50,000 soldiers to surround Lingcheng. Is it possible?

"The last general is willing to lead 50,000 troops to stay. Let's meet this Yang Yanzhao!"

Zhou Changjiu walked forward slowly, "please ask the commander to fulfill his wish."

"You still have to protect me, why?

The wings are hard and want to fly. Don’t you care about me, the bad old man?”

Master Zhou asked back.

Zhou Changjiu hurriedly said, "I dare not."

"Then let me do it."

Zhou Ziqi hurried forward, "The eldest brother and the third brother were arrested and the second brother died in battle. It was all because of this Yang Yanzhao. Please give me a chance to redeem my sins. I will definitely be able to take off Yang Yanzhao's neck."

"No!"

Master Zhou shook his head, "Ziqi, you are eager to take revenge. I am worried that if you stay, you will easily be in a desperate situation. At that time, Yang Yanzhao has many soldiers and generals. If you only have 50,000 soldiers, it may be difficult to resist. Once you fall into a bloody battle, then you..." "I am willing to stay and fight against Yang Yanzhao with Ziqi."

Qin Ming suddenly stood up and said loudly: "I am wherever Ziqi is. I don't want your 50,000 troops. I only want my headquarters. Of course, it is indeed a bit useless to siege a small Yang Yanzhao, so I promise that when your army arrives at Fancheng in Longzhong Province, I will definitely be able to take down Lingcheng and meet you in Fancheng."

"oh?"

Master Zhou's eyes lit up, "It's rare that General Qin Ming has such ambition. Since this is the case, I will fulfill your wishes. Remember, even if you can't get Lingcheng, you must arrive at Fancheng for at most two months. At that time, even if you abandon Lingcheng, you must arrive quickly."

"Grandpa, don't worry, I will fulfill my mission."

Qin Ming said it with confidence, Yang Yanzhao's genius in the heavens seemed completely nonsense in his opinion. When he left Changping and went to Huaicheng for further studies, Yang Yanzhao was just a little brat who couldn't even wipe his nose clean.

I still remember that during the Battle of Huaihe River, when Yang Yanwei introduced Yang Yanzhao to him, Yang Yanzhao stared at him at that time. He was doing bad things and said, "What are you looking at? Let's see, I'll dig out all your eyes for you."

At that time, Yang Yanzhao's eyes turned red and he almost cried.

Qin Ming didn't take such a little kid seriously at all. Master Zhou would look down on Yang Yanzhao so highly. It would be fine if he killed Yang Yanzhao, he could just show off with Master Zhou.

"Everyone get ready, tomorrow morning, the troops will be divided into three groups!"
