The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Thirty miles east of Shanxi County, Daxia's central army had stopped marching and set up camp.

The general Liu Shuai in the county already knew the intention of the enemy's slow march, and his heart was full of sorrow. At that moment, Bai Lin was defeated and killed. The floating military spirit is even more turbulent.

There are more troops than the opponent, and with the help of the terrain, Xia Jun can't be defeated in this way. What does this mean?

Is the sky going to destroy Qin?

Liu Shuai sighed and focused his attention on Xia Jun. But what Xia Jun did next, inspired Liu Shuai.

Because Xia Jun actually sent troops to attack Licheng and Kangcheng, the intention was to cut off the side branches first, and then attack Shanxi County.

At first, Liu Shuai was worried that it was Xia Jun's conspiracy, so he deliberately allocated troops to lead him out of the city. Once he led his troops out of the city, the opponent would return to outflank. But with the passage of time, the two Xia armies have rushed to Licheng and Kangcheng and attacked the city.

Liu Shuai sent a large number of scouts to investigate, proving that this was not Xia Jun's conspiracy, and Xia Jun did not hide and ambush around.

This result made the generals in Shanxi County ready to move.

A lieutenant general said to Liu Shuai: "General, Emperor Xia is humiliating us! He thinks we dare not go out of the city to attack, so it is unreasonable to divide our forces to take down Licheng and Kangcheng! General, I beg you to Lead troops out of the city to attack!"

"That's right, General! Emperor Xia has only 200,000 troops around him. Now is a great opportunity! If you can defeat Emperor Xia's army, it will definitely boost morale." Another person also suggested.

Liu Shuai was a little moved, but he still didn't send troops because he was cautious because he was afraid that this was Xia Jun's conspiracy.

On the second day, Licheng and Kangcheng sent people to send emergency reports for help. Although the two cities said they had 50,000 troops stationed there, they actually had 30,000 Qin soldiers, and 20,000 militiamen were forcibly recruited to guard a city wall. Facing Daxia's strong bow, a prefecture city that is not high and has an unstable city will naturally be in a hurry.

If Liu Shuai continued to hide in the Shanxi county without sending troops to attack, or if he did not send troops to rescue, within two days, Licheng and Kangcheng would be breached and fall into the hands of Xia Jun.

At this time, a deputy general reminded Liu Shuai, "General, the emperor of Xia Guo used the general's prudence and prudence to know that the general will defend the city, so he dared to send troops to attack Licheng and Kangcheng. This is a rare opportunity. If you don't , the next step is that we will have a hard time."

Liu Shuai sighed, he naturally understood this truth, but he was still afraid that it was Xia Jun's trap. However, the words of the deputy general reminded Liu Shuai.

The longer the time dragged on and the colder the weather, the more unfavorable it would be to Qin. Now that we have an opportunity, we really can't waste it. If you don't act for fear of failure, what if you succeed?

Thinking of this, Liu Shuai immediately made arrangements: "You generals, obey your orders and rectify the troops! Choushi left the city from the west gate tonight, and then divided into three groups to attack the enemy's camp! If we can annihilate the enemy and capture Emperor Xia alive, we will all He is the hero of Great Qin!"

"Yes!" A group of lieutenants immediately clasped their fists in response, and then immediately went down to rectify the troops.

Winter nights come early and are dark and deep.

After Zishi, there was silence between heaven and earth. The west gate of Shanxi County City, which was originally closed, opened quietly, and a large number of Qin troops left the city.

Liu Shuai was very cautious, and chose to leave the city through the west gate, and then wrapped the hooves of the war horses with cloth to isolate the sound, and the infantry also reduced the sound of trampling, and then chose to go around an arc, and the troops were divided into three groups, with a total of 220,000 troops. The three directions headed towards Xia Jun's barracks, preparing for a sneak attack.

At the end of Yin time.

The three-way Qin army approached Xia Jun's camp three miles away. Because they were worried that trampling on the ground would cause the opponent to be alert, the closer they got, the slower their speed was.

At this time, Xia Jun's camp was quiet, only the vigilant soldiers walked back and forth to patrol. Although Liu Shuai was worried that this was Xia Jun's conspiracy, he had no choice but to shoot, so he drew his sword, beat the drum and blew the horn immediately, Then start to charge.

"Kill! Capture the Emperor of Xia alive! Make meritorious deeds!"

The soldiers of the Qin State were extremely excited, everyone wanted to capture Xiao Rui alive, this is definitely a feat of being a Marquis and Prime Minister.

But when Liu Shuai rushed into the barracks, he found that he had been tricked.

It's not that there are no people in the barracks, of course there are people, it's just Xia Jun who has been waiting for a long time!

They seemed to have guessed that the Qin army would come for a sneak attack, so they all stayed in the barracks fully armed. At this time, facing the attacking Qin army, they began to fight back.

And unlike the Qin army's chaotic intrusion into the barracks, the twelve soldiers of the Great Xia were one body, six of them held a shield in one hand and a knife in the other, forming a circle to protect their compatriots, and the remaining six were archers, assisting in the design. The remaining four were armed with hooks and sickles!

When encountering the cavalry of the Qin State, the hook and sickle spear cut off the horseshoes of the opponent's horses.

And when the entire army is fighting like this, this is the Qin army's nightmare.

Liu Shuai fought the enemy bravely, but unexpectedly, he fell into the trick. The opponent had already expected that he would sneak attack! And it is to use his cautious character!

"Damn it! Withdraw the troops!"

Liu Shuai turned his horse's head and immediately ordered the messenger Ming Jin to withdraw his troops, reminding his lieutenants to return to Shanxi County. But Xia Jun waited all night, and finally waited for the other party, how could he let the other party escape?

Fighting in the dark already affects the line of sight, which also facilitates the Qin army's escape, but who is Han Xin?

Bing Xian also.

In the chaos of the battle between the two armies, the Xia army was not in chaos. They killed the enemy in a circular formation while surrounding the Qin army. At the same time, a bonfire was lit in the open space outside the barracks, and they were like street lights , designated the position for Xia Jun.

If you look down from a high altitude, there are a total of one hundred and eight of these bonfires, which are lit within a radius of ten miles, forming a circle, with bright spots as a line of defense, and immediately forming an intricate array.

When Qin Jun fled, he found that Xia Jun was behind him, and no matter where they ran, they could always meet Xia Jun, as if they were trapped in a maze.

Liu Shuai was startled, and shouted: "No! This is a formation set up by the enemy!"

"What formation is this?" The following lieutenant asked hastily.

Liu Shuai shook his head, and said, "It's too dark to see! They are using the bonfires as a guide, immediately put out those bonfires, and rush out with me!"

As expected of a veteran of the Qin State, he immediately saw the shortcomings of Han Xin's formation.

But Liu Shuai could see it, but the other two Qin armies couldn't. So at dawn, only Liu Shuai led his troops to escape, and the other two sneak attacking soldiers were all trapped by Han Xin's formation and were killed annihilate.

As for Liu Shuai who escaped, Han Xin did not chase after him, because Han Xin had already reserved his back.

At the time of Liu Shuai's sneak attack, the Xia army who had gone to Licheng and Kangcheng rushed back in the dark, so Liu Shuai's soldiers who fled directly encountered the ambushed soldiers and horses.

In the end, there is no need to think too much about the result. Liu Shuai died in battle. Qin Jun, who escaped from death, encountered Xia Jun's attack again, and he died and surrendered.

After the day was completely bright, Han Xin rectified his army and horses and pressed them to the front of Shanxi County City.

At this time, there are only a few generals left in the city, and the remaining troops are all militiamen forced to recruit. The fighting power is weak, how to defend the city?

Han Xin returned Liu Shuai's body to Shanxi County, and said that if he did not abandon the city and surrender, don't blame Xia Jun for being immoral.

The few remaining Qin generals saw that they couldn't stop Xia's army, and at the end of the day, they took advantage of the night to escape from the west city gate and abandoned the city, abandoning the people in the city.

So far, Daxia has won the Shanxi County City at a small cost.

With the capture of Shanxi County, the entire Shanxi County fell into the hands of Daxia, without any pressure.

At the same time, the other armies have also made progress, advancing hand in hand, without encountering defeat.

When this situation was reported back to the capital of Qin, all civil and military officials were silent, Qin Zheng also sighed, stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyebrows.

It would be great if it was good news.

King Xiang Qin Yu said: "Your Majesty, although the Xia army won the victory, it was only temporary. Our Daqin has experienced countless ups and downs, and this time we will definitely be able to defeat the enemy."

"You're right! If even I feel sorry for myself, then Da Qin really has no hope." Qin Zheng straightened his attitude, and then asked Qin Yu: "How about the matter of asking you to contact the Yuan Kingdom?"

Qin Yu said: "It has already been involved, but to show solemnity, I want to hurry up and travel day and night, go to the Yuan Kingdom, meet the Khan of the Yuan Kingdom in person, and persuade him to attack from the east and the north. Once the Dongqi area falls In the hands of the Yuan Kingdom, it will be a disaster for the Xia army! Moreover, the situation of the Yuan Kingdom is not good. Before the heavy snow falls, the Khan of the Yuan Kingdom wants to loot a wave so as to seize the supplies for the winter. Now the Yuan Kingdom It only borders Xia Kingdom, Khan of Yuan Kingdom has no choice but to attack Xia Kingdom!"

Qin Zheng's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "Yes, the enemy's enemy is a friend! If the Yuan Kingdom can take down the Dongqi area and control the three passes of the Qinling Mountains, then Xiao Rui, the emperor of the Xia Kingdom, will be trapped in the Daqin territory. Time is the lamb to the slaughter. But..."

Speaking of this, Qin Zhengchi questioned: "But the Khan of the Yuan Kingdom is in the east, and the Dongqi area is in the west. Can you convince the Khan of the Yuan Kingdom?"

Qin Yu said: "I originally sent people to the Mongolian tribe, but now the Mongolian tribe is becoming stronger and more ambitious, so they are not willing to cooperate with us. So I sent someone to contact Khan of the Yuan Kingdom and reached an agreement. But Well, we have to pay a high price for Yuan Guo Khan to attack from the Dongqi area. As far as Yuan Guo Khan is attacking the Dongqi area, he is helping us!"

"No problem, I'll take the trouble to go there in person, agree to Khan's request, and let him send troops as soon as possible!" Qin Zheng no longer cared about the cost, as long as he could destroy Xia Guo, everything would be worth it.

Now Qin Zheng's hatred for Emperor Xiao Rui of Xia Kingdom can no longer be described in words.
