He laughed loudly, not to mention how arrogant he was.

It can be imagined in Xu Hu's ears.

The latter's lungs were almost irritated, and he couldn't help but say again: "Master!"

"No need to pay attention to him. Ye Guiyi is here, but he is fearless and has acted in temptation. Moreover, there are smoke from the valley behind him, and there are fears that there will be ambushing soldiers. Let's go back to Mengjin first to rest." Xiao Yuan's voice was calm.

Advancing in danger is a taboo in military strategists. No matter whether there are ambushes or not, as the commander of the entire army, Xiao Yuan would not take this risk.

Ye Gui's loud clamor was even less worth mentioning in his opinion.

Seeing the pursuers retreat with their own eyes, Ye Gui laughed and stood there for a while before turning the reins and rode his horse into the valley path.

One hour later.

On the road, you can see that there are all the spiritual army retreating troops.

The sound of horse hooves came, Ye Gui rode his horse and stepped on his reins. He immediately hugged his fists and laughed: "As expected, the King of Qin chased to Shigu Bridge, and was scolded by me, but hesitated instead.

In the end, he led his troops back."

"Haha." Cheng Ping smiled and said, "The King of Qin is a hero in the world. When he saw a general with a spear, he would definitely be suspicious. He thought there was an ambush in the future and he would not dare to chase him again."

"Haha, it's still a wise plan. He scared tens of thousands of Qin troops away without a single soldier." Ye Gui seemed very happy.

"Where is it all lies in the general's power, which makes the King of Qin feel scared. If it were someone else, it would definitely not work." Cheng Ping praised him and knew the character of this fierce general.

Sure enough, Ye Gui was very helpful when he heard this. Even his head was slightly raised, and he would not say the mistake of retreating.

There is actually no ambush on the Lingjun side, because there are steep mountain walls on both sides of the valley. It is okay to force the climb with ropes, but in terms of time, there is no time to prepare.

In order to ensure the safe retreat of the army, Cheng Ping made a plan.

Xiao Yuan is also a human being, not a god. He can only know on the military map that there is a valley road there. As for the specific situation, it is of course unclear without on-site investigation.

The Ling army retreated to Jialing Pass, and Xiao Yuan's side temporarily rested in Mengjin for two days. Then, he gathered 340,000 troops and continued to advance eastward.

After Mengjin, there were several county towns between Jialing Pass, but the Ling King gave up directly because there was no danger to defend. If the village was left outside, he would be in a passive battle.

To put it simply, he wants to guard Jialing Pass.

One of the ten most powerful passes in the world, the main force of the Spirit Army has 250,000. With the conditions of easy defense and difficult attack, it is probably difficult to break this pass.

This is also the basis for the Ling King's proposal to withdraw Cheng Ping.

A few days later.

Xiao Yuan led his army to Huifeng County.

There is no spiritual army garrison here.

On the plain outside the city, black armor and red tassels were covered with the sky.

Xiao Yuan was wearing a black royal suit, a jade hairpin, and a war horse, and was located directly in front of the army.

There was no soldier on the top of the city, but in the middle, there was a middle-aged man wearing the county magistrate's uniform.

Seeing this, Xiao Yuan couldn't help but slam the horse's belly lightly.

Fearing that business accidents, Xu Hu hurriedly followed.

After arriving at the city, Xiao Yuan first looked up at the Huifeng County Magistrate, and then shouted loudly: "You should be a smart person. I advise you to open the city by yourself, otherwise you will have no place to die!"

He was wearing the Qin King's uniform, and the county magistrate naturally knew who he was. He immediately said, "King Qin Xiao Yuan! Can you recognize this official uniform? How could my great spirit official beg for surrender to the thief!"

"Dog official is bold!" Xu Hu was furious and pointed to the city.

"Hahahaha--" Huifeng County Magistrate laughed up, and after laughing, he said angrily: "The tyrant Qin annexes the world and acts against the heavens! Invades our country! I wish I could kill all the thieves!"

"As the magistrate of Huifeng County, my official cannot protect the country and the people. He will not repay the emperor's kindness, and he will be ashamed of the people!"

"Today, although I am the only one left, I cannot take away my ambition!"

"Ningyu is broken, not complete!"

As he spoke, he also pulled out his sword, crossed it directly to his neck, and pulled it down hard.

Blood splattered, and the sword fell to the city together with his corpse.

In fact, the magistrate Huifeng County could have followed the Ling King to evacuate, but he insisted on staying.

Looking at this scene, Xiao Yuan took a deep breath, waved his hand, and the soldiers behind him understood and immediately separated the two of them and dragged the body down.

"Buried him." Xiao Yuan said, and then the army entered the city.

When he entered Huifeng County, he couldn't help but say to Shangguan Wenruo and others: "Huifeng County Magistrate, a small civil servant, has such integrity, and is actually a role model for literati such as you."

In the heart of such a founding monarch, he was somewhat of a man who valued martial arts and neglected literature. Xiao Yuan also disliked some literati who sought fame and talked loudly.

I was really inspired by the magistrate of Huifeng County.

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Wenruo, Jia You and others looked at each other first, then Wang Su laughed dryly and said, "Yes, what the king said is very true."

Xiao Yuan glanced at him and quipped with a smile: "If one day, the family and country are in danger, will Lord Wang have the ambition to sacrifice his country for his life?"

Hearing this, Wang Su immediately became serious and decisive: "I, this must be the case!"

After saying that, he said, "But then again, under the great king's civil and military skills, the Qin Dynasty will only become stronger and stronger, and will be unified in the world and have a peaceful and prosperous country."

"Haha, it's still the civil servant who can speak." Xiao Yuandale, "Go to the city."

"yes."

After Huifeng, the Qin army was preparing to approach Jialing Pass. The Ling Army had already completed its defense within the pass, and at the same time, a series of military congresses were also underway.

Jialing Pass has the Funiu Mountains on the left and the steep mountain walls on the right. They are steep and unattainable. The pass is long and long, which can be said to guard the important road and control the throat of the East Spirit.

Inside the pass, the conference hall.

In the defensive battles against Jialing Pass, the generals of the Ling Army were full of confidence, because although there was some gap in the strength of the two sides, no one knew that if a strong attack on the dangerous pass would have to be filled with his life.

The Ling Kingdom has an army of 250,000, and it is impossible to lose it in a year or two.

What's more, there are so many senior generals here.

King Ling was not worried about the safety of Jialing Pass, but mentioned the national war situation and looked at Cheng Ping and said, "Mr. Cheng said before that Qin Ling's battle situation should make appropriate changes and explain one or two."

"Yes." Cheng Ping responded respectfully and said, "In the battle of Qin, Your Majesty adopted a comprehensive defensive strategy to seek the Qin army retreat and to speak of war and harmony. But now, there has not been much progress in each war zone.

, I think that you can no longer defend blindly, and you should take the initiative to attack and encircle and annihilate it."

"How to divide and encircle and annihilate it?" asked the Spirit King.

Cheng Ping said seriously: "For example, in the Jingyang area, General Huang is equal to Su Yi. We can mobilize the troops from other war zones to encircle Jingyang, first annihilate this Qin army, then concentrate superior forces, and encircle and suppress them one by one."
