Chapter 160 Depressed Bai Qi

Changping, Guanglang City Qin Army Camp.

Wu'an Jun Bai Qi sat upright in the handsome tent, with no expression on his face, and his eyes were quietly staring at the map in front of him, motionless, like a sculpture.

A sound of footsteps gradually approached and stopped at the door of the coach's tent.

A personal guard entered the tent and reported to Bai Qi: "General, General Wang asked for a meeting."

Bai Qi didn't raise his head and said, "Let him come in."

A moment later, Wang Yan's figure appeared in the handsome tent.

"Have you seen the general!"

Bai Qi's expression moved slightly, and his eyes raised from the map on the table in front of him, and slowly moved to Wang Yan.

Just as Bai Qi's gaze moved to Wang Feng, Wang Feng suddenly felt the illusion that he was being pressed by the blade and subconsciously straightened his body.

Bai Qi said, "What's the matter?"

Wang He said: "Three days ago, Wei Wuji led 150,000 troops to the north, and had broken through Changping Pass, Dakou Pass and Xiaokou Pass. Military information came two hours ago, and Wei Wuji has now arrived at Xingli Post."

When Bai Qi heard this, his brows frowned almost immediately: "This Wei Wuji is so fast?"

There is a north-south road in Shangdang County. Its south is Yewang City, and the north is connected to the Changping Qin Army camp, which is Taihang Xing.

The lost passes mentioned by Wang He just now were all the passes set up by the Qin army in Taihangxing.

Bai Qi subconsciously glanced at the map in front of him. Now Wei Wuji's troops were blocked by the Qin army in a place called Xingliyi.

This place is very close to Changping Front, only a few dozen miles away.

Once Wei Wuji broke through Xingliyi, the only one in front of Wei Wuji was the last line of defense of the Qin army, the Tianjing Pass.

When the Tianjing Pass is also lost, then the 150,000 Wei and Han coalition forces can enter the Nan Shangdang Basin, which was difficult for the Qin army to defend, and then go north from the Nan Shangdang Basin to Changping, and directly penetrate the back of the Qin army's Guanglang City!

Bai Qi's face was as deep as water, and he said in a cold voice: "I have dispatched 50,000 elite troops to move south, why is Wei Wuji's march still so smooth?"

The 50,000 Qin army seems a bit inappropriate than the 150,000 Han army, but don’t forget that the Qin army is the defensive side, and it is guarding a place that is easier to defend than a city.

Why is it easier to guard passes than cities? Because defending cities requires guarding cities to protect enemies from all directions. Now, the Qin army, which is defending many passes at Taihangxing, only defends the Wei and Han alliance from the south.

It is precisely because the pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack that the saying "One man should be a pass and ten thousand men should not open it."

Under the extreme circumstances, thousands of people may be able to withstand this 150,000 army for several days.

But in less than three days now, Wei Wuji broke through three of the five passes in Taihangxing like a bamboo shoot!

Bai Qi asked himself, even if he and Wei Wuji were in a different place, they would not be able to do the right thing as Wei Wuji.

That's why Bai Qi was so surprised.

Because in Bai Qi's opinion, the whole world is not worthy of being compared with him when fighting!

Wang Ying shook her head, and her face was also surprised, saying, "According to the front line, Wei Wuji did not completely break through the pass by force, but instead broke through the trap."

Bai Qi asked, "What's the plan?"

Wang He said: "When Wei Wuji ordered local people to take a detour to attack the front and back of the road and break. After Wei Wuji broke through Changping Pass, he attacked the enemy quickly and attacked the enemy. The defenders were caught off guard and broke. Only Dakou Pass was because the two first passes were lost too early and the reinforcements from the rear did not arrive in time, so they were defeated by Wei Wuji."

Bai Qi remained silent after listening to Wang Feng's report, and said after a long time: "How can Wei Wuji overcome the snowfall for several days?"

Wang He said: "Every time Wei Wuji attacked, he would take the Han army as the vanguard. Many of the Han army had soldiers from Shangdang County, who had the intention of regaining their hometowns. They bravely took the lead in fighting, and even if they were killed or injured, they would not retreat. A mere snow could not stop him."

Bai Qi frowned again.

Obviously, Wei Wuji's use of troops was beyond Bai Qi's expectations again.

After all, the Han army has always been synonymous with weak chickens in Bai Qi's mind. How could Bai Qi have thought that this weak chicken would become heroic all at once?

In fact, it is not just the Korean army, but the entire army of other countries in the world is all weak in Bai Qi's eyes.

Bai Qi took a deep breath and said, "Can Xingyi stick to it?"

Wang He said: "After the general's order, 10,000 troops have been stationed in Xingli Post. I think it can stop the Wei and Han coalition forces for more than seven days."

"Seven Days?" Bai Qi snorted heavily, with obvious anger in his tone: "What I want is not seven days, but to block Wei Wuji from the Southern Shangdang!"

Faced with Bai Qi's anger, Wang Feng shook his head helplessly and said, "General, if others are generals, this may not be difficult to do. However, the rumors about Wei Wuji have been told that it is true that military strategists are unpredictable, and it is really difficult to deal with."

"Unpredictable military use?" Bai Qi couldn't help but sneer fiercely, saying, "If Sima Geng hadn't been stupid and had actually left the city to fight Wei Wuji in the field, how could he be so arrogant today? I will give you 30,000 troops, and you will set off to Xingzhi Station immediately, so that Wei Wuji will not take another step north!"

Wang Feng was stunned for a moment, then saluted Bai Qi: "The last general takes the order!"

After Wang He took the order and left, Bai Qi was left in the commander's tent.

The eyes of Wu Anjun returned to the map.

To be honest, after losing Taihang Xing, the Qin army's situation was indeed very unfavorable.

There is actually not a way to retreat. After all, the western half of Baixing is still in the hands of the Qin army. Bai Qi can withdraw from Shangdang County along Baixing and return to Hedong County of Qin.

But in this case, the failures of Qin and Bai Qi will be completely confirmed.

As for the current situation, Bai Qi felt that it was not time to admit defeat and retreat.

Although the Qin army was indeed at a disadvantage, this disadvantage is not irreversible.

In Bai Qi's opinion, the encirclement built by the Zhao people has indeed begun to take shape, but the encirclement is too large, and it is easy to find the flaws of the Zhao people.

So Bai Qi is not in a hurry now. He is still waiting for the opportunity, waiting for an opportunity to turn defeat into victory.

Where is the opportunity?

Bai Qi looked at the map in front of him, and his eyes kept searching back and forth on the map, and finally landed on a place name that was repeatedly mentioned in the conversation between Wang and Bai Qi just now.

Starryphal.

Here, the 150,000 Wei and Han alliance led by Wei Wuji are launching a fierce attack, hoping to break through the penultimate pass of the Qin army.

A smile suddenly appeared on the corner of Bai Qi's mouth.
