Chapter 23 Attitudes of the Parties

"Withdraw troops!"

Following this military order, the silent Eagle Cavalry was like a strong wind rising on the horizon, leaving Lingshou, who was filled with bloody energy.

At this time, in Lingshou City, there were only two bloody and terrifying temples, and countless headless corpses scattered everywhere.

The tiger flag of Western Chu that used to fly at the head of Lingshou City has long since disappeared, replaced by the black dragon flag of Da Qin that roars up to the sky.

Three days later, news of this battle spread like wildfire!

As the main commander of this war, Shi Wansui was quickly taken seriously by all forces.

After all, his performance was too dazzling and powerful. With four thousand people, he massacred the Xi Chu Hussar Camp defending the fortified city. Even Wang Cheng, the leader of the Hussar Camp, was beheaded on the spot.

…………

Within the Fenyang Palace of the Great Qin Dynasty.

Qin Xi, who looked a little ugly, was sitting on the throne. Next to him was a piece of information about the Battle of Lingshou.

Qi Cheng, who was next to him, had a gloomy and uncertain expression.

After a long time, this old man who had lived through the Second Emperor of Qin Dynasty spoke in a tone that was frightening for future generations.

"Lei Tong died unjustly!"

In the battle of Xiaoguan Guandao, Qi Cheng did not let Qin Xi speak out. After all, he was defeated in the battle and it was not honorable for him no matter what.

"Mr. Qi, what kind of bad luck did Qin Yu have?"

"How can I get the loyalty of a fierce general like Shi Wansui!"

Qin Xi slapped the armrest of the chair hard and then spoke angrily.

He really couldn't figure out how a dim-witted and incompetent Qin Yu could obtain the loyalty of such a fierce man as Shi Wansui.

"Your Highness, you should give it some thought to your plans to raise an army!"

Qi Cheng sighed, and then said with a gloomy face.

Qicheng prided himself on being resourceful and resourceful throughout his life. After two dynasties and two masters, his position as prime minister remained unshakable. However, he did not expect that when he was old, he actually bet on the wrong treasure and stood in the wrong team.

"Can't wait any longer!"

"In the worst case, I'll go and beg my grandpa to take action!"

Qin Xi said with a sinister look on his face.

His grandfather is Liu Tianhe, a long-famous master in Dongling Domain, nicknamed Dongling Sword King.

"Oh, that's all we can do..."

After Qi Cheng waved his hand and said this, he left the Fenyang Prince's Mansion with a somewhat old figure.

……………

Less than three hundred miles away from Lingshou City, there stands a weather-beaten city.

The name is Yuanshun City, which was the central city in the northwest of Qin Dynasty before the fall of Hexi, and was also the capital of Hexi.

But now it is the city where the main force of the Western Chu army that invaded Da Qin is stationed.

The Western Chu army invaded Da Qin this time and recruited a total of 60,000 cavalry, and a hussar battalion directly under the royal court.

Adding up these scattered numbers, there are more than 80,000 people, and the Imperial Court of Western Chu is known as one hundred thousand.

The commander of this huge army was a veteran general from Western Chu named Wuletuo.

This man was extremely cautious and experienced in fighting. Thirty years ago, he took up the post of Emperor Qin's imperial commander and went on a personal expedition. He was severely wounded by him at the border of Western Chu. He then sent his troops into Hexi, burned, killed and looted before leaving.

After taking office as Emperor Qin, his ambitions disappeared after that battle, and he instead wandered around the gentle countryside. Since then, the power of the Qin Dynasty has declined, and the country has been in decline.

"Commander, this Wang Cheng is such a waste!"

"He was actually killed in the camp by the cowardly Da Qin people!"

"It's really a disgrace to me, the warrior of Xichu!"

In the former Hexi Governor's Mansion of Great Qin, a Western Chu general with a strange tattoo on his face spoke with disdain and mocked the dead Wang Cheng.

This general of Western Chu was named Ketuo, and he was the commander-in-chief of ten thousand cavalry. The person he usually disliked the most was Wang Cheng.

In his opinion, Wang Cheng is just a loser who eats soft food.

"Okay, Ke Tuo!"

"I still know how Wang Cheng is doing!"

As Wuletuo spoke slowly, he also glanced at Ketuo in a warning manner.

As an experienced commander, he naturally knew that the army under his command was the most elite.

In terms of hard power alone, Wang Cheng's Hussars Battalion is the absolute ace in the army he holds this time.

It is far from being comparable to Ketuo's miscellaneous team of thousands of horses.

As the name suggests, Wanqi is the abbreviation of Ten Thousand Cavalry, which is the largest military unit in the Western Chu Army.

"Commander..."

After Ketuo heard Wuletuo's words, he laughed sarcastically.

Wu Letuo's status in the Western Chu army was like a god of war.

In that battle thirty years ago, Emperor Qin abandoned his armor and did not dare to have the slightest intention of looking northward.

"Let Yu Xian's Wanqi move towards Xiaoguan, and at the same time, let the armies of Chen and Cai also move towards Xiaoguan to encircle them!"

"You still have Wanqi. Tomorrow you will join me at Xiao Pass. I want to surround and kill this Qin general named Shi Wansui!"

Wu Letuo is already over sixty years old, but his face and tone are still majestic, and there is no sign of aging at all.

"Commander, you must be making a fuss out of a molehill!"

"I can wait for three thousand horses and push Hedong flatly. Is it necessary to do this?"

Ke Tuo's face was full of doubts. The size of three thousand cavalry, used to fight a small Xiao Pass, is a bit like a cannon to fight mosquitoes.

Although the location of Xiaoguan is important, it is not so important that the people of Xichu are crazy about it.

It seems that the doubles fight in Hexi is in full swing, but in fact it is not the case. From the beginning to the end of Xi Chu's battle in Hexi, only Wang Cheng's hussar battalion was dispatched.

The real main force of Xi Chu has not moved at all and has been sleeping in Hexi. Wu Letuo knows the Shenjian Villa very well. If he can invite them over, he can drive them out.

Therefore, from the beginning to the end, a large number of the main forces of Western Chu were on guard against Fenyang and Shenjian Villa.

The only ones causing trouble in Hexi were the armies of Chen and Cai, who were the losers of Western Chu, and the hussar battalion of Western Chu.

"When a lion fights a rabbit, he must use all his strength!"

After Wu Letuo glanced at Ketuo, he spoke in a calm voice.

In fact, Wu Letuo only talked about the most basic level, because he understood that for a fool like Ketuo, fighting on the battlefield was his job.

There was absolutely no need to tell him about the temple deduction. The entire Western Chu hussar battalion was wiped out this time. It was not just the loss of one hussar battalion.

More importantly, the myth of the Western Chu people's invincibility in field battles has been challenged, so Wuletuo wants to quickly eliminate Shi Wansui with a thunderous force.
