Chapter 1173 Fake?
Chapter 1173 Fake?
"Quickly pack up all the weapons, don't leave any behind!"
In the valley, Li Xing had a smug look on his face, thinking about collecting the spoils as quickly as possible and rushing back to Feihe City for a decisive battle with Chu Ning.
Now that he has seized the weapons supported by the State of Chu, it is equivalent to cutting off the external aid of the Zhou army. Considering the combat effectiveness of the Zhou army, it is only a matter of time for him to sweep across the Zhou Dynasty.
Of course, if he could defeat Chu Ning in Feihe City, the reputation of the Qin army would rise to another level.
By then, he will be a hero of the Qin State, sweeping away the previous haze and completely suppressing the Chu State.
With an excited heart, Li Xing was in high spirits and full of pride.
But at this moment, the soldier who was nervously transporting weapons nearby suddenly cried out.
Li Xing frowned, turned around and looked, his face showing displeasure: "What are you panicking about?"
"General...general."
The soldier trembled slightly as he stepped forward and saluted, then said cautiously, "All the spears in this cart are old and worn-out."
A shabby thing?
Li Xing was stunned: "How can it be old and worn out? The weapons transported by the Chu army this time are to aid the Zhou army, they can't be old and worn out!"
"General, please go and take a look yourself." The soldier said timidly, lowering his head and speaking in a low voice.
Li Xing frowned and looked at the soldier with some doubt, then stood up and walked towards the escort carriage.
When I arrived in front of the carriage, I found several spears dropped on the ground.
He reached out to pick up the spear and found that the tip of the spear was rusted and the barrel was bent. It was obviously a defective product.
"This……"
Li Xing's face changed drastically.
This is not the magic weapon of the Chu State, it is clearly a weapon eliminated on the battlefield.
Looking at the notch on the tip of the gun, it was clearly a sign of having been on the battlefield.
Moreover, the sharpness of this weapon is almost the same as that of the weapons of the Qin State. It is clearly not the magic weapon that made the Chu State famous.
"This is the weapon that Chu Ning seized from our army last time. He deliberately transported it here to give to us!"
Li Xing muttered to himself, a look of horror on his face.
If his guess is correct, then today's ambush was within Chu Ning's expectations. The Chu army transport team fled without a fight just now, which was intentional!
But this isn’t right either!
If the Chu army just wanted to send some fake weapons, why did they make such a fuss?
Isn’t Chu Ning’s purpose to lure him into sending troops?
and many more……
send troops!
Li Xing seemed to have thought of something. His eyes widened in fear. "Oh no! His target is not me, but the soldiers I left behind in Feihe City!"
A general nearby was stunned when he heard this: "General, what do you mean by this?"
Li Xing did not explain, but shouted angrily: "Everyone listen up, put down what you are holding, and rush to Feihe City at full speed!"
After saying this, Li Xing jumped on his horse and headed straight for Feihe City.
The Qin army looked at each other, not knowing what their commander was thinking, but they followed immediately.
The mighty Qin army, regardless of fatigue, rushed to Feihe City at full speed.
Li Xing regretted deeply at this moment. If he had known this would happen, he should not have led his troops to ambush here.
Now, he has fallen into the trap.
Chu Ning deliberately spread the news of supporting weapons so that he would send troops to ambush here, but Chu Ning's real target was the Qin army in Feige City.
In the last exploratory battle, Chu Ning must have also tried to find out how many troops he had left behind.
After the last test, the Zhou army also fought with the Qin army. This will make Chu Ning more confident about the next battle and be able to make more reasonable arrangements.
Therefore, he must rush to Feihe City as soon as possible and arrive before Chu Ning eats up the troops he left behind.
Otherwise, Deputy General Zhou Min's 50,000 troops would be in dire straits.
At this moment, Li Xing regretted it so much that his intestines turned green.
He thought he had Chu Ning in his control, but unexpectedly, he was tricked by Chu Ning.
He will eventually pay the price for his arrogance.
Now, he had only one idea: Zhou Min must hold on longer, preferably until he arrives at Feihe City.
"Quick, quick, speed up, full speed ahead!"
"Faster, faster!"
Urgent urging voices rose up along with the sound of horse hooves.
However, Feihe City is several days away from Dingjun Mountain. Even if we rush back at full speed, it will still take time.
At this moment, Li Xing wished he could grow wings and fly directly to Feihe City.
But he also knew that this was just a delusion.
In order to let the Qin army in Feihe City get the news as soon as possible, he led his troops back and sent someone to deliver a letter to Zhou Min by flying crane.
As long as Zhou Min received his letter, he could lead his troops to withdraw from Feihe City and wait for him to lead his troops to join them, and everything would be solved.
What he is most worried about now is that Chu Ning will take action before Zhou Min receives his letter!
Now it depends on whether Zhou Min can receive his news first!
If Chu Ning takes action first, the Qin army will undoubtedly be defeated.
After all, there is still a gap in military strength between 50,000 and 100,000. Coupled with Chu Ning's deployment, Zhao Yu's white horse cavalry and other factors, the Qin army will be in great danger.
Of course, if Zhou Min could get the news in advance and lead his troops to retreat, he could have avoided this disaster.
But everything was as Li Xing expected, this battle was deliberately arranged.
Chu Ning will not give the Qin army any chance to turn the tables.
Just as Li Xing was rushing back with his troops, that is, the day when the Qin army ambushed the Chu army's transport team, Chu Ning summoned all the generals in Feige City.
Feige City, meeting hall.
Chu Ning changed his usual dragon robe and put on armor, looking heroic.
"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Chu!" The generals stood on the left and right and bowed.
Chu Ning nodded slightly and laughed loudly, "Generals, after a few days of rest, our army has cleared away the fatigue of the march."
"In order to give an explanation to Her Majesty the Empress as soon as possible, I have decided to launch an attack on the Qin army as soon as possible."
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of the generals changed drastically.
I thought that after Chu Ning went out of the city to fight against the Qin army last time and knew the combat effectiveness of the Qin army, he would restrain himself.
I didn't expect Chu Ning to be so bold. Even though he knew that his combat effectiveness was inferior to that of the Qin army, he still chose to go out of the city to launch an attack.
The generals looked at each other, and finally their eyes fixed on Yanagida.
None of them dared to stand up and oppose, and hoped that Yanagida, the defending general, would take the initiative to stand up.
After all, this is Yanagida's territory, so Yanagida should naturally be the leader.
Noticing the looks from everyone, Yanagida sighed, and had no choice but to step forward and said in a deep voice:
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince of Chu, although our army was not completely defeated in the last battle, the morale of our army has dropped significantly after this battle."
"It has only been a few days. If we rashly go into battle now, it may be disadvantageous to our army."
"Why don't we wait a few more days and make a decision after morale is restored?"
As the defender of this place, the most important responsibility is to defend Feihe City.
This also makes Liu Tian's ideas different from Chu Ning's.
One wants to take the initiative to attack, while the other just wants to use the city to defend!
Chu Ning raised his eyebrows upon hearing this, narrowed his eyes, stared at Liu Tian, and said in a cold voice:
"General Liu, are you questioning me?"
