Chapter 1222   Direction

As soon as the defense line was broken, war broke out on the top of the city, and more and more Qin soldiers jumped up along the ladder and joined the battle.

The soldiers of the Ling Army began to fight and retreat, and finally, they were killed off the city defense in one go.

The battle flag on the front of the city was replaced, and the city gate was quickly knocked open.

Lin Xi lost, and the guard of the Ling Army saw that the situation was difficult to reverse, so he couldn't help but scream: "God will destroy me! God will destroy me--"

As he said that, he also raised his sword, put it on his neck, and pulled it down suddenly.

Blood splattered, the battle sword fell to the ground, and the guard thought he had lost the city and committed suicide at the city gate.

Needless to say, the rest of the soldiers were so scared that they fled, and they had already thrown away their weapons.

Not long after, Wei Qing came here, and the deputy general immediately came to the side, clasped his fists and said, "General Lin Xi committed suicide. Some of the remaining soldiers surrendered, and some fled to Mengjin."

"Yeah." Wei Qing nodded, looked at the body of the guard general, and said seriously: "Burn it with great burial."

Although it is an opposite, the other party insists on not giving in and rather die than surrender. The backbone of the general is worthy of respect.

"First occupy Linxi completely, quickly change defenses, and at the same time send a letter to the king to report on the battle situation here."

"No!" The deputy general took the order and left.

Wei Qing looked around again. His armor and face were stained with a lot of blood. The sword returned to the sheath, but he couldn't help but groan and covered his lower abdomen.

There, blood was flowing out.

A commander next to him immediately supported him: "General."

"It doesn't matter. Let's take a look at the soldiers below first." Wei Qing raised his hand. The old wound was still there, and new battle wounds were added, which shows that this good general.

Lin Xi was successfully captured by the Qin army and the battle report was passed back. Xiao Yuan couldn't help but praise him again: "It's a great blessing to have such a good general."

Shangguan Wenruoze said: "Now, Li Jun, a unit of Lingguo reinforcements, is about to arrive in Linxi. In the opinion of the minister, it is better to let our follow-up troops cooperate with General Wei Qing to wipe him out outside Linxi City."

"Wen Ruo's words are reasonable." Xiao Yuan immediately made a decision: "I will order the Second Army to attack Li Jun's troops from the left wing."

This is to make dumplings with reinforcements from Lingguo.

But the Lingjun side is not a fool.

In Mengjin City, the conference hall.

After learning that Lin Xi had lost his life and the guard general committed suicide, the Ling King couldn't help but feel sad and closed his eyes deeply: "General Shi would rather die than take a step back until the end of the battle. He is a model of the general. He hates Qin's army, steal me

Lin Xi.”

"Your Majesty." Cheng Ping said seriously: "General Shi is loyal and righteous, but now is not the time to be sad. Qin general Wei Qing has occupied Lin Xi, and now General Li Jun is supporting him. If he is surrounded by flanks, the consequences will be

It's unimaginable."

"Mr. Cheng means that the Qin army will attack Li Jun's troops." Ling Wang Dao.

"It must be like this." Cheng Ping explained: "When General Li Jun arrived in Linxi, the city had been lost and his troops had no place to settle down. If the King of Qin dispatched troops and circled around the back, what should he do?"

"Yes, yes." The Spirit King would also feel relieved, a little nervous, and immediately said: "Hurry up! Take a fast horse and send Li Jun to withdraw from Mengjin!"

"Yes." Cheng Ping quickly took the order.

This order has already indicated that the Lingjun no longer wants Lin Xi. Of course, this is an absolutely wise move. Otherwise, it will not only be a county town, but also more troops will be lost.

In the same war zone, the military orders from both sides were passed quickly. After Li Jun arrived in Linxi, he had the idea of ​​regaining the city. However, after just one day of attack, the orders of the Spirit King were passed.

Li Jun did not dare to disobey the king's order, and after he stopped the troops, he began to retreat lightly.

Soon, the Qin army's follow-up troops arrived, but naturally they were empty. If Li Jun left a little later, it would be extremely dangerous.

This little episode did not affect the overall situation of the war. Next, Xiao Yuan began to redeploy, using the existing cities occupied as military strongholds, expanding the battlefield situation, and surrounding Mengjin. At the same time, he mobilized some heavy troops to

Near Dai City, the situation is given that the Ling Army must take the pond.

This signal made the Ling King worry again.

There are 30,000 Yuan Ming’s army in the pond now. Judging from the Qin army’s military operations, if they do not retreat, they may be attacked by heavy troops. If they are rescued, they will not be rescued. If they are rescued, the reinforcements will probably be attacked halfway again.

.

If you withdraw, it means you give up all the important traffic roads around you. If you don’t want it, Mengjin will be in danger.

In short, to give up on the pond, you must be prepared to give up on Mengjin.

This incident caused great differences during the military convening.

When a general proposed to retreat in the pond, Ye Gui was the most angry, and he said with a glaring look: "Xingcheng is lost, Lin Xi is lost too! Now if you give up in the pond, what else can you fight!"

"People are worried, please listen to the explanation of the last general." The general said: "The pond is very important, but there are only 30,000 defenders. Once the King of Qin mobilizes heavy troops to attack, General Yuan Ming will not be able to defend for a long time. At that time, we will be able to do so.

You must have support, but reinforcements are ambushed halfway or encounter the main force of the Qin army in the wild. What should I do?”

"After all the time, you are just afraid of being beaten by the Qin army!" Ye Gui remained angry.

Hearing this, the general became anxious: "The last general is just considering the overall situation, why does the general say this..."

"Hmph!" Ye Gui sneered and said angrily: "What's the fear of the Qin army? Tell me, not only can we not give up in the pond! We should also order our troops to regain Xingcheng and Linxi in one fell swoop! We will drive the King of Qin out of the Weihe River completely

West!"

"This, our army failed in the decisive battle. In the overall situation of Mengjin, it should not be like this..." A general grinned secretly.

It’s not that people are afraid, but the situation does not allow it. When the main force of the Spirit Army came, it was a total of 400,000 troops. After the battle at the left stronghold, the decisive battle on the plains, and other city competitions and small battles, the strength is less than twenty.

It's 50,000.

Of course, 250,000 people can turn defeat into victory, but it is definitely not the current situation.

Ye Gui still wanted to fight again, but the Spirit King shouted impatiently: "Okay!"

Everyone shut up immediately.

He also looked around for a week and frowned and said, "Give up the pond, it means giving up Mengjin. In this way, the Qin army will take advantage of the situation and advance directly to Jialing Pass."

At this time, Cheng Ping stood up and said, "If the city is lost, it can be taken back, but once the troops are completely destroyed, it will be in danger of destruction of the country. I think the situation in Mengjin is no longer planned."

Hearing this, the Ling King looked at him with some displeasure: "Mr. Cheng also believes that our army should give up Tangzhong and then give up Mengjin?"

Cheng Ping said seriously: "Retreat to Jialing Pass. Our troops are still there, so the Qin army will never be able to enter the pass. If the situation cannot be reversed in Mengjin and is exhausted, how can Jialing Pass be defended?"

"In addition, I think that certain adjustments should be made in the national war situation, otherwise, the Qin army will inevitably find it difficult to retreat."

"Please also ask your Majesty to give a clear explanation."
