The Sword Dynasty - 682. Chapter 681

There was singing in the dark night.

That is the voice of the hometown.

On the battlefield, the army is not allowed to sing the songs of the hometown. This is sentimental. It reminds people of the homeland and the relatives waiting in the distance. For some sergeants, this may arouse stronger fighting spirit, but for the great For most sergeants, this is powerless.

So this kind of singing often comes from the enemy.

A breath of silence enveloped the Chu army camp in Yangshan County, and occasionally crying would be heard in some outer civilian camps.

Already into the heat.

The battlefield in Yangshan County has become a bit hot and humid, and some diseases caused by the lack of clean water are also beginning to prevail. Every day, people die because of lack of medicine.

However, for both the Chu army and the Qin army, food is most in short supply.

As early as half a month ago, the Chu army had lost the supply from the rear. The fall of Chu Capital was passed on to the border army along with the news that most of the grain and grass transportation routes were cut off.

The army of the Da Chu Dynasty did not intend to fight a protracted battle on the front line, so it soon lost their food and grass.

In fact, Qin Jun’s situation is just as difficult.

Because the Qin Army had been retreating in front, and lost most of his luggage. When a full counterattack began more than ten days ago, the vast majority of the Qin army was in short supply no matter whether it was combat weapons or food.

In the confrontation over the past ten days, Qin Jun still failed to counterattack and suffered a lot of defeats.

The Chu army relied on the grain and war horses captured by the Qin army and barely maintained it.

The problem, however, is that the mood of the two parties is different.

If it were in the past, even if the Chu Army was in hardship, as long as Qin Army was not their opponent, they could even chase down to the depths of the Great Qin Dynasty and continue to fight like this.

However, they are now helpless.

No matter how embarrassed the Qin army is, they all have continuous reinforcements.

This depletion will eventually exhaust all Chu troops on this border.

One side is annihilating the remnant enemy.

One side is struggling in despair.

…

In the darkness, Concubine Zhao Xiang didn’t fall asleep. She stood under the banner of one side in front of the camp, listening to the familiar singing in the distance, thinking in her heart that such a voice might not be heard for a long time in the future.

There are footsteps.

Xiang Yan reached a short distance in front of her and bowed in salute.

“Is there news about Yan?” she asked normally.

Xiang Yan was silent for a while and nodded, “Emperor Yan went out of the army and occupied the thirteen cities between Tianmen Pass and Yanjing, saying that he was helping us send troops to stop Qin.”

“It’s the same as we expected.” Zhao Xiangfei didn’t get angry, but smiled, “It’s the same after changing me. If we don’t take the opportunity to divide up, can we still go out to attack Qin? If we don’t get it right, she will immediately fall into Qin Qi’s. Fringe. It’s better to take the opportunity to make a big profit.”

Xiang Yan looked at her bright and moving eyes in the night, and then said: “Yinshan has heard news that the siege of the Nine Dead Silkworms has failed, and Tang Mei has led the remnants to break through the Yinshan Mountain and defect to the Wu Family.”

“This is the best news. I didn’t even kill the nine dead silkworms. Zheng Xiu must be awake at night than me.” Zhao Xiangfei shook her head, but there weren’t many unexpected expressions, “I just heard about that place. There are really a lot of masters.”

Xiang Yan smiled bitterly.

He thought more than a lot.

Many unknown, well-known, and seven-level masters who died on that battlefield, and many people in the world believe that they have died, even if they are still far away from the Changling War, they may have surpassed the absolutes recorded in the history books. Most famous battles.

“The world’s grandmasters go to the fifth, and Qin Chu has the most. In the future, there will be many masters of Yanqi. This is probably the reason why Daqi accepted the cooperation with Zheng Xiu. Yan Xinran accepted the situation at this time.” Xiang Yan smiled bitterly and said: ” Of course, Qi is willing to accept the killing game initiated by Qin’s self-cutting strength. For them, the death and immortality of those in the Bashan sword field are Qin people after all.”

“Yan Xinran is impossible.” Zhao Xiangfei said indifferently, “Qi will betray us, and will naturally betray them too. With the jackal on his side, who can sleep in peace. It’s just the appearance of each other, but in the future, it will be even more difficult to get together. It is inevitable that swordsmen meet each other.”

Xiang Yan sighed.

He is a famous general of Da Chu.

Especially when Li Mu left, he and Tang Mei were probably Da Chu’s best generals, with unique vision.

Although Zheng Xiu’s self-inflicted self-inflicted severely, the advantage of the practitioners of the Great Qin Dynasty may be gone forever. However, this completely provoked the dispute between Yan and Qi, making it difficult for Yan Qi to join hands. In his opinion, this transaction: But it still only earns no loss.

But that is a very remote thing after all, and what is right now is where their remaining 700,000 army should go.

These Haojilang who have lost their homeland and relatives, are there any other choices besides dying here?

What are the people in the Bashan sword field doing?

As if God heard his inner resentment and calling, at this moment, a general hurried to his body and handed him a secret note.

Xiang Yan quickly opened it, only to glance at it, and he was a little surprised.

“Lin Zhujiu let us head east to Jiaodong County.”

He took a deep breath, calmed himself down as much as possible, looked at Zhao Xiangfei and said, “He said they will try to control Jiaodong County.”

Concubine Zhao Xiang smiled slightly, seeming to relax a little, and said: “Then we will go.”

Xiang Yan hesitated.

Because he is very aware of the difference in some words, there is a big difference between trying to control and being able to control.

What’s more, from Yangshan County to Jiaodong County, you will pass through Nanquan County along the way.

Seeing the hesitation in his eyes, Zhao Xiangfei smiled brighter.

She knew where his hesitation came from.

The counties of Nanquan were the gathering place of the eastern gate lords of the Da Chu Dynasty. Those gentry were once the opponents who opposed her rule most. The most important thing was that they had many powerful practitioners and private armies. Even after Lord Liling took the throne, he launched several conspiracy assassinations on Lord Liling and her.

If you want to go through there to Jiaodong County, it is unrealistic in the eyes of any general. It is easy to be chased by the Qin army and be attacked by the Qin army when blocked in the front.

“In the past, they thought that I was a female generation and they thought that I was a domineering thief of the country. Now I take the Chu people to flee. It depends on their current attitude.” Zhao Xiangfei took a deep breath and regained the sense of strength. Filled with her tired body, then she continued: “And now besides Bashan Sword Field, is there any ally worthy of our trust?”

“Never underestimate the capabilities of Bashan Sword Field.”

“Since Lin Zhujiu said he would try to control Jiaodong County, that is a good choice for us.”
