CHAPTER

CHAPTER 501 - FRESH AND SUBLIMATE PATHWAY(11)

The Han River in North Korea is a relatively small river that originated from the Wutai Mountains on the western slope of the Taibai Mountains and eventually flowed into the Yellow Sea's Jianghua Bay. The middle to lower reaches of the Han River Basin was the main crop production area of Korean Peninsula, which was the richest. Regardless of size or prosperity, there was a difference of clouds and mud between the Qingchuan River of the north.

The Han River was very wide. Not only could the small sized ships of the Fourth fleet of the Qin Army pass through here unimpeded, the oceanic cannons of the First fleet were also unobstructed.

Just when the white of the fish's belly could be seen in the east, a large number of sails appeared on the surface of the sea in Jianghua Bay. At this time, the red light of the rising sun was like a fire burning in the sky, illuminating the colorful shadows of the sails one by one.

Xie Fei rode on the flagship of the Qin Navy's Fourth Fleet, standing on the deck as he blew the cold sea breeze. Seeing the emperor here, Wang Tanzhi hurried over and bowed, Your majesty, the sea breeze in the morning is rather moist, your majesty should go back! The kitchen is ready.

Xie Fei breathed in the slightly salty sea breeze, pointed at the faintly discernible mouth of Han River and said: Wang Aimin, do you know where that is?

Wang Tanzhi was slightly stunned. He never would have thought that Xie Fei would ask such a question that did not have any standards, but he still replied respectfully, Reporting to Your Majesty, this is Hanjiang River Entrance River Flower Bay.

Xie Fei nodded his head: The middle to lower reaches of Han River is Korean Peninsula's most fertile plain, a land where all kinds of food are produced. If we lose Hanjiang Plain, Yan State's food loss will exceed one third, which is also advantageous for us to implement the blockade plan!

The only difference was that at that time, the Volkswagen had used the railway as the pillar, the highway as the chain and the bunker as the lock. They had divided the anti-Japanese base area into small blocks that could not be looked after together, and then continued to nibble on them until they finally reached the goal of annihilation. Cage policy was in fact the best way to deal with asymmetric wars such as guerrilla warfare or sports warfare.

And Xie Fei used the water channel as the pillar, the river plain as the surface, and the city near the river as the lock, to carry out the entire splitting of the Yan State. In fact, all the nomadic peoples s had the characteristics of guerrilla warfare. If they could fight him, they would fight him, and if they couldn't fight him, they would run away. This was half the 16-character strategy of guerrilla warfare.

But at this time, Murong Ke obviously did not realize that he had entered into a wrong place, and went through a bad situation. If he was able to walk out of this maze, and not rely on their area of expertise anymore, abandoning his horse and following their footsteps would mean that the Korean Peninsula's unique geographical environment would be the place where they fought. If the Qin Army wanted to take over the Yan State, the price they paid would definitely be extremely heavy.

But Murong Ke did not realize his mistake.

Wang Tanzhi said, Your majesty, don't worry. The Yan State does not have a water army, the Han River is so wide, the river surface exceeds a thousand steps, and their hardest bow with the farthest range can't even shoot that far. We will definitely be able to take down all the cities in the Han River Basin.

Xie Fei said, Defeating the Yan State is not difficult at all. We have to think of a way to turn the Yan State into an inherent territory of the Qin State. That is the main focus of our future work. After occupying the city, they had to stabilize all the cities as soon as possible. Right now, Xianbei member's main population was mainly the Xianbei member, followed by the people of Xinluo, Baiji and San Han, and Wang Aiqing wanted to cooperate with Hu Dahai, to make sure that there were more Xinluo people. The people of Baiji and San Korea rebelled against the Xianbei member, using this opportunity to isolate the Xianbei member and cause the entire Yan State to collapse. However, you must first establish the Qin State's deterrence of force before you can act benevolently and righteously.

Xie Fei immediately returned to the Ship's warehouse and wrote an imperial edict. In the past, Lelang County was promoted to a prefecture, and from then on the Korean Peninsula was changed to Laizhou. Xie Fei conferred Wang Tanzhi the title of Governor of the Laizhou, and oversaw the military and political power of the Laizhou.

He was indeed the main general of the Fourth Fleet, but as everyone knew, the Fourth Fleet used to be just a water army training ground, while Wang Tanzhi was just a no-name general. He had gone from a fourth rank military official to a national first rank officer in the blink of an eye. Furthermore, he was in charge of military and political affairs. He had risen to the eighth rank in succession!

Wang Tanzhi received the imperial edict, and solemnly vowed: Your Majesty, rest assured, this humble subject will do my best to manage this place known as the Laizhou.

Xie Fei said: Daughter need not be too anxious, right now, the most important thing for Laizhou is still military, we must not relax in military, and must also take the initiative in politics. Now, according to the secret report of imperial guards, after representing the Yan King, Murong Ke did a lot of comforting work, which has greatly improved the conflicts between him and other clans. The important thing for my beloved official to do is to carry out the royal rule in the Laizhou and vigorously promote the popularization of Chinese and Confucianism."

Xie Fei thought in his heart, if the entire Qing Dynasty completely erased the blood of the Han people, then Confucianism would be the main culprit. Xie Fei wanted to spread the knowledge of Confucianism throughout the Korean Peninsula, making them the mental food of the future generation of Koreans. At last, the goal of assimilation was achieved. Doing so would not only transform the DPRK into an inseparable whole in the territory of the Great Qin, but would also solve many of the problems of future generations.

Wang Tanzhi did not know what Xie Fei's true intentions were, but he knew that Xie Fei's actions were to make the king's rule and to bring the advanced theories and theories to this Savage Land. One could imagine, that after a dozen or so years, this place would have a drastic change in appearance, and the eastern borders of the Qin State would no longer be the Liaodong's Liaodong, but the Laizhou would become the eastern region of the Qin State.

Wang Tanzhi belittled the teachings of his manor, as he praised and praised the art of punishing names. Towards Xie Fei's transformation into a law that had nothing to do with the Qin State, he vigorously pushed the rule of law, which was very suitable for his taste, and firmly guaranteed Xie Fei: "Your Majesty, rest assured, this humble subject will take at most five years, no, three years. I will definitely set up a school in all the County, so that everyone in the Laizhou will know Chinese.

Seeing Wang Tanzhi's solemn look, Xie Fei couldn't help but mutter in his heart. Although he was famous as Xie An in the history of the competition, his ability was still far inferior to Xie An's, but he was extremely loyal to Jin Luo. Xie Fei felt that Wang Tanzhi was also a pragmatic person in all of history, why did these words sound like an aerial cannon? Xie Fei could not help but ask: How does Wang Aiqing plan to promote the king's rule in the Laizhou, promote Confucianism, and popularize Chinese culture?

Wang Tanzhi said with a stern face: This subject has just thought about it, Laizhou is mostly located in the Wilderness, the people are ignorant, and do not know how to respect etiquette, this subject plans to use both soft and hard measures simultaneously, study Chinese culture, submit to the Great Qin's royal rule, and reduce the tax on them, but do not study king's teachings, those who do not study Chinese culture, will be given a heavy punishment, and will not increase the tax on them by one fold for one year, and will not increase them for two years. Three years later, all those who do not study Chinese will be exterminated, the Laizhou will not leave anyone who does not know Chinese!

Xie Fei nodded his head, he did not say anything else, since this was the best way to proceed.

Murong Ke received Zhao Xing. Looking at Zhao Xing who did not lose out in terms of appearance and might, who was like a tiger general, he liked him from the bottom of his heart. After listening to Liu Pei's report, Zhao Xing's martial arts was extraordinary. Murong Ke knew about Liu Pei's martial arts. His martial arts could be ranked in the top five amongst all the generals in Yan State, and to be able to walk a hundred rounds without being defeated, there was no way that he would have thirty people like. However, it was a pity that Zhao Xing was a Chinese, and a general at that.

Zhao Xing had made plans to assassinate Murong Ke, but when he entered Murong Ke's tent, he was stupefied. Murong Ke was fully armed, donning a gold armor, with a steel blade at his waist, and staring right at Zhao Xing like a venomous snake, and around Murong Ke stood five strong and fresh burly men, under the tent sat or stood close to twenty Yan State Generals. He was now nearly twenty steps away from Murong Ke. If he wanted to kill Murong Ke now, it would be impossible, because before he could even take out his dagger, he would be pinned on the ground by the surrounding big men, unable to move.

Zhao Xing could only dispel the thought in his mind. He would find another chance, but if the assassination attempt on Murong Ke was different at this time, he would never have another chance in the future. Hu Dahai's plan that he painstakingly made would also die in his womb.

Murong Ke looked at Zhao Xing and asked: Is General Zhao used to living in Yan State?

Zhao Xing immediately nodded. This general isn't used to it in Yan State, I miss my wife and children a little!

Murong Ke laughed towards the sky, and said: Why would it be hard to wait for this king to defeat the Duke of Qin, drink a horse or river, and you can reunite with your family!

Hearing that, Zhao Xing's voice became low, and he choked: I'm afraid it's too late, I will descend soon, and I'm afraid Hu Dahai had already informed Qin State, I'm afraid I'm already at Qinzhou's wife's house, and have been killed.

Murong Ke also knew the way the Qin State dealt with the troops that fell. He frowned: In that case, this king has harmed you!

Zhao Xing was so scared that he quickly kneeled on the ground and kowtowed: This lowly general does not dare!

Murong Ke said: You Han Chinese have a saying, hatred for the murder of your father, hatred for the wife, cannot be shared. Do you want to take revenge?

Zhao Xing said: I want to!

Murong Ke said: Do you know what advantage the Qin Army has over our Yan Jun?

Zhao Xing didn't know what Murong Ke was planning, so he could only answer truthfully: The advantage of Qin Army lies in their good equipment, their defensive abilities are strong, and their weapons are sharp. Their crossbows are far longer range than the arrows that Yan Jun uses currently, and they also save a lot of energy. And the cannons and Heaven Bombing grenade s of the Qin Army!

Murong Ke was a little angry in his heart, saying so much was nonsense, he could easily calculate the difference in equipment with his eyes closed. Ming Guangkai's armor defense was good, but it cost too much, one set of armor could make five good blades, if Yan State was as rich, Murong Ke would not have to be so troubled.

Murong Ke said: Is there no way to beat Qin Army if you want?

Zhao Xing's brain worked very quickly, and after being stunned for a while, he immediately spoke out his thoughts: "Of course not, the Qin Army's fighting strength and equipment are good, but their movement speed cannot compare to the Yan Jun's, even if they are the same cavalry, because of the heavy armor and weapons, a Qin soldiers plus weapons would be more than two hundred kilograms. They are not as fast as the Yan Jun's cavalry, nor as fast as them. Furthermore, there are also times when the weather is getting colder and snow is falling and it will be harder to replenish the Qin Army s resources. In addition, we can fight against the Qin Army s in the mountains and make use of the countless high mountains and dangerous peaks of the Yan State s to fight against the Qin Army s in the mountains. Although the plains are beneficial to the Yan Jun Knights in battle, but it is more suitable for the use of the Qin Army's equipment and cannons.

CHAPTER 502 - FRESH AND SUBLIMATE PATHWAY(12)

What Zhao Xing meant was that he wanted to lead Murong Ke into a wrong place, and as such, the fighting strength and results of the allied army from back then were obvious to everyone. Murong Ke could not help but be moved, but to have the Xianbei member, who was used to cavalry, learn to fight in the mountain range, this was using their weaknesses to attack the strengths of the Qin Army. Also, for the Xianbei member to achieve victory in fighting in the mountain range, he had to use three to five years of training.

At that time, he clearly knew that Hu Dahai's troops were not many and their combat power was not strong, but if they stayed hidden in the mountains, no matter how many troops there were, they would not be able to unleash their power. Naturally, they would not be able to display their advantage with numbers. In particular, Hu Dahai made full use of every inch of land, dropped trap, released arrows, hit pole, and other methods, making Yan Jun feel miserable.

Murong Ke thought for a while, then asked: But none of us in Yan State are familiar with mountain battles, who should be in charge of training for this team?

Zhao Xing said: I am not talented, I am willing to serve Your Highness with my life!

It could be said that when Zhao Xing was scheming against Murong Ke, Murong Ke was also scheming against him. Murong Ke had long since waited for Zhao Xing to say that Murong Ke did not understand anything about mountain battles. If it was as Zhao Xing had said, they could form a army and battle against the Qin Army in the mountains, causing the Qin Army to be unable to advance and to have no path to retreat. This could be said to be the blessing of the Great Yan.

Murong Ke said: If what General Zhao says is true, and everything is true, this king will heavily reward you!

Although Murong Ke did not think highly of Zhao Xing, he had a deep impression of him.

That day, a scene that made Zhao Xing want to cry but had no tears appeared. Murong Ke had asked Liu Pei to bring over fifty thousand new citizens, hundred thousand new citizens, and three Han troops over, all young men. Zhao Xing thought that Murong Ke would make the current fresh essence abandon his horse and switch to training as a mountain army, but he never thought that Murong Ke would do this.

Zhao Xing was an expert at leading soldiers, it was not easy to fool him. If he continued to train seriously, it would bring about an exceptionally huge pressure to the Qin Army. Zhao Xing was so angry that he gave himself a few big smacks, and thought to himself: Your mouth, nothing serious, what are you doing, isn't this just lifting a rock to smash your own foot?

Just as Zhao Xing was about to fall into deep self-blame, Murong Ke received news of him losing his defence in Xichuan. This news made Murong Ke feel as if he was struck by lightning, and he was unable to slow down for quite a while. Without a word, he lay alone on the soft ground and thought hard about what to do.

was not in the mood to eat dinner. After knowing that Murong Ke had not eaten dinner, Huangfu Zhen guessed that Murong Ke had probably encountered some difficulties.

Huangfu Zhen came to Murong Ke's big tent. After receiving the news, Huangfu Zhen entered Murong Ke's big tent. At this time, Murong Ke's entire body had lost its vigor, and his face was sallow, as though he had contracted a serious illness. When Huangfu Zhen saw this, he turned pale with fright. He had to go to the witch doctor. Murong Ke stopped Huangfu Zhen and told him the news of Xichuan's fall. Then he asked, What should we do?

Huangfu Yufeng thought for a moment, "Your Highness, right now our Yan Kingdom is at a disadvantage in terms of military power. With the Qin's combat power, we are unable to take back Xichuan City, and we are also unable to open a path of retreat. However, it was a military defeat! We can take the political initiative.

Struggle for political initiative? When Murong Ke heard that he had not reached the point of despair, he immediately became spirited. He got up and asked: How do I fight for it?

Yesterday night I observed the sky, tomorrow morning the weather will change greatly, the weather will definitely become cold, and Qin Army does not have any clothes to protect himself from the cold, due to the weather, Qin Army is still wearing summer clothes, they will definitely not be able to attack tomorrow, so we will send messengers to the Qin camp to beg them for more time. Then, we shall use the [Dragging Character Formula] to drag Qin Army here, and then send someone to inform all of Yan State's army, and focus all of his power on attacking Xichuan, opening a gap for His Highness, and escape from it as soon as possible!

In truth, he had based his conclusion on the basis of 24 points, as well as the recent abnormal weather. Of course, in order to show that he was capable, he could only say it as everyone knew that Ge Liang knew how to calculate, and that he could even be compared to a god. Therefore, he was prepared to impersonate Zhuge Liang to benefit his future prospects!

Murong Ke said: I wonder who will be able to complete this difficult mission as an emissary at this time?

Huangfu Zhen said: Although I am not talented, I am willing to head to Qin camp to buy time for Your Highness!

Of course, Gu Dairen was very smart. The frost of that era had fallen much colder than the one now, and the Qin Army was only wearing a layer of simple clothes. Under the extremely strong wind, especially the Ming Guangkai Armour, which felt like he was wearing a lump of ice on his back, it was simply not warm at all. Before they had even cleared out the Formation, many of the soldiers' noses were already flowing out.

As a result, many of the soldiers in Qin Army had a cold, and almost 30% of the soldiers had a cold of different degrees. When Qin Haoran heard about this, he was extremely worried. He also urged the logistics to send over the cold clothing and medicine, especially the strong wine and ginger, at the same time ordering the soldiers to not go out to battle and to defend the camp.

At this time, a soldier came forward to report, Yan State envoys seek an audience!

Qin Haoran waved his big sleeve, and said loudly: Emissaries of the Yan State, if you don't want to see me, you have to ask me to stop, unless Murong Ke uses his flesh and blood to go out of the formation, surrender to this general, and tell this general's words to the envoys of the Yan State, and then send them back!

A staff officer said: General, I am afraid that this matter is not appropriate, the Yan State's Envoy is here to seek peace, but in reality we are stalling for time, now that our army does not have any clothes to defend against the cold, we are unable to fight anymore, so the general might as well meet with this representative, we are part of the attacking party, the battle power is in our hands, furthermore, with Xichuan in our hands, it is difficult to escape from Yan Jun, if we are to stop him for a few days, it would be beneficial for us. Furthermore, our army is unable to provide sufficient food and resources. Yan State has a firm wall and clear fields, so it is impossible for us to make up for it on the spot. Fourth, the soldiers were exhausted after battling for so long. We also need some time to rest. General, why not do a favor and let our troops rest for a bit? It's convenient for them and it's also convenient for them.

Qin Haoran frowned, and laughed: What the adviser says is right, we should settle this then. As for the peace, whether we fight this time will depend on whether Murong Ke wins or not, and whether we win this battle will depend on whether both sides are strong or weak, and whether the envoy has the ability to turn the situation around, or not.

Qin Haoran bellowed: Gather all your drums, form a formation to welcome the envoy of Yan State!

After entering the Qin Army's camp, the more Huangfu Zhen saw, the more he was shocked. Along the way, all the soldiers of the Qin soldiers held their weapons in their hands and drew their sabers. Look at the imposing, murderous atmosphere. It was terrifying. Huangfu Zhen was still alright, he must have experienced a huge scene, so he was not scared by this imposing aura. However, the ten odd followers behind him were so scared that they almost peed their pants, their faces were ashen red, and their bodies were like sieve chaff.

Huangfu Zhen was so angry that he could not take it anymore, and said to his follower: "Ju...

With your little bit of potential, you are now representing the Yan State, and all of the Yan State's face has been thrown away by you! "

One of his followers said with a sad face, Sir, we have no other choice. We can't even control our bodies anymore.

Huangfu Zhen shook his head helplessly. He was a Chinese man, he had a stubborn heart, he forced himself to calm down, looking straight ahead, his chest puffed up, and he slowly walked into the big tent.

Huangfu Zhen gave a diplomatic salute (really did not know how to salute in the ancient times) and said indifferently: Foreign official Huangfu Zhen greets General Qin!

Qin Haoran looked at Huangfu Zhen's serious face and said arrogantly: This general has come here under the orders of my Imperial Majesty to suppress the Yan State. If Murong Ke does not come here to surrender, what brings you here?

Huangfu Zhen said: General Qin, you are wrong, my Yan State and my Qin State have always been good friends and good neighbors, what does General Qin mean by attacking my Yan State without reason? Aren't you afraid of the world talking casually to you all? Aren't you afraid that the Great Qin Emperor will be merciless, and use the evil name of being strong and weak?

Qin Haoran said, What a good neighbourly. Your Xianbei member has invaded my Great Qin many times. Jizhou, Qingzhou, they are besieging my Luoyang, you have killed and set fire to my people, you have done all sorts of evil deeds, countless unarmed commoners, you have killed innocently, countless families had died because of the cruel and merciless Xianbei member, many citizens' homes have been destroyed, your Yan State violated my Great Qin's heavenly might first, why is there no reason to say that?

Qin Haoran then continued: This general remembers that our is a place where no criminals are allowed, if anyone offends me, I will definitely become a prisoner, and if they kill one of my citizens, I will destroy ten towns, and for how many Qin people have your Yan State killed, can you guys count them? Oh, I remember that Huangfu Emissary was born in the Yongzhou County of Stable. I wonder if he still remembers a sentence?"

Huangfu Zhen subconsciously asked, What did he say?

Qin Haoran said: I will pay with my life, I will pay with my debts.

Huangfu Zhen exclaimed, Ah, this humble one remembers. Of course I remember!

Qin Haoran said: Our Emperor has decreed that anyone who offends against the heavenly might of Great Qin, will be killed even though far away. Since they have the guts to do something that would anger the gods and men, then they must have the courage to take on the wrath of the Great Qin!

After a long while, he then said respectfully: I am only here to carry out orders to negotiate peace with the Great Qin Emperor. If General Qin is able to make the decision, then Chu Ji (Huangfu Zhen's words) will hand over the letter to the general. It's fine if we are to have a negotiation with the general.

It was true that Huangfu Zhen was a general who held a heavy army, and it was also true that he was a high and mighty general. But since ancient times, the emperor taboo martial artists to support their own troops, no matter how arrogant Qin Haoran was, he did not dare represent Xie Fei!

Seeing Huangfu Zhen's fake smile, Qin Haoran couldn't help but want to beat him up into a pig's head. However, reason told him not to do this.

Qin Haoran suppressed the anger in his heart and shouted: Men, escort the envoy of the Yan State to meet the Emperor!

After Huangfu Zhen left, Qin Haoran rushed towards the guards and said, All of you will immediately rush to the Qingchuan River with Huangfu Zhen's group and board the boat to go down the river. At the entrance of the sea, there is a small island called Jianghua Island, and on it is the encampment of the First Fleet of the Great Qin's Navy. But you have to remember, you have to stay here day and night. If Huangfu Zhen wants to delay time, you have to drag him to the emperor like a dead dog.

Yes. General, rest assured! The personal guards immediately accepted the order and left.

Qin Haoran looked at the background of Huangfu Zhen and his entourage, and gave a cold laugh, You definitely didn't think this would happen. The emperor basically does not have peace, and in the Korean Peninsula, coming here every single time definitely does not exceed ten days. If I give you ten days, what can you do to me?

CHAPTER 503 - FRESH AND SUBLIMATE PATHWAY(13)

He knew that Murong Ke was the old rival of the Qin Army. Although he did not know the specific training outline of the Qin Army, but he could tell with a glance whether it was good or bad, if he did not bring out his true abilities, Murong Ke would definitely not be able to see any flaws.

Zhao Xing then changed the basic training outline of the Qin Army slightly and took it out to train the new army of the Yan State. Of course, the most important thing in the Qin Army's training process was, for example, ideological education. Zhao Xing would never teach his training method to those New Army soldiers.

Fifty thousand new troops made up a single formation. Fifty square formations formed a spectacular sight on the ground. Although they looked the same on the outside, they were all different, and came out in an endless stream of different shapes, making them look very bloated. Although the new recruit soldiers all wore the clothes imitated from the Qin Army's training uniform, the clothes inside were all for themselves, some wore sheepskin, some had cowhide, and some had different types of animal skins mixed together, the styles were also different, their thickness was also different, making the scene a bit chaotic.

The new army had spread out the Formation, and things were still like that, but the moment they moved, everything would become a mess. This gave Zhao Xing a huge headache, but what gave him even more of a headache was still to come. The first thing Qin Army had to do in training was to unify the military orders, like a simple password, every single person in the Qin soldiers knew that they had to take one step on the left foot, one step was only 75 centimeters. At the same time, they had to move their center of gravity forward, and then move their right feet accordingly;

When Zhao Xing saw this situation, he did not get angry, but was happy. With this kind of new army, it would take even more time for Sun Wu to be reborn. At this time, a group of people rushed out from behind Zhao Xing, they were old and young, all dressed differently, this was Murong Ke's creation, when Zhao Xing told him that if one could not achieve unity in the army, then there was no way to form combat strength, thus Murong Ke, in order to allow Zhao Xing to achieve unity in the army, he specially found a group of people to give orders.

There were dozens of clans of different sizes living in the ancient Korean Peninsula, but they did not have any words, nor did they have a unified language. Although the indigenous people of the Korean Peninsula were generally referred to as Gao Juli, Xiluo, and Baji, they were all divided into dozens of tribes with different habits and habits. Not to mention the military order, even the communication between them was the biggest obstacle.

Fortunately, with the efforts of the speaker, the chaotic New Army finally understood Zhao Xing's orders. They slowly moved according to the training outline.

By the time Zhao Xing finished his order, two incense sticks of time had already passed.

Looking at this new troop, Zhao Xing couldn't help but feel disdain for them. Even the first day of Qin soldiers's army gathering didn't take more than fifteen minutes.

Just as Zhao Xing had gathered his troops and was preparing to train for his next move, Murong Ke and his team of soldiers came forward to inspect the troops, in order to boost the morale of the three armies.

As he looked at these soldiers who had undergone a short amount of training to become neat and tidy, hope rose in his heart that they would be able to defeat the Qin Army. What shocked him the most was the Qin Army's orderly footsteps, which were always orderly and strict. Even if they were to face the sea of blades and flames, they would still advance as usual, and even if they knew that their bodies would be smashed into smithereens after a single step, they would still end up like moths thrown into flames.

Murong Ke's ambition to dominate the Central Plains grew up within him since a young age. The sharp offensive of the Qin Army back then had caused this dream of his to fall into despair. However, his hope was soon washed away by a bucket of cold water.

Murong Ke said excitedly: Great Yan Warriors, you have done well. This king looks forward to see you succeed, defeat the Qin Army, and take back the lost ground.

When the speaker finished translating Murong Ke's words, the entire New Army army was in chaos again. Zhao Xing gave the order to organize the troops and was immediately flustered. Murong Ke was furious, he could not bear to whip Zhao Xing to death.

Not only was Murong Ke an outstanding general, he was also an outstanding statesman. Although he was exceptionally angry, he did not show it on the surface. He still spoke in an amiable tone, General Zhao, do not be discouraged. In time, the general will definitely train a teacher who is not inferior to the Qin Army!

And at this time, Meng Tianhu led his army and approached the Xichuan City. Outside the city, Meng Tianhu saw the abandoned horse corpses in the camp. Although the weather was getting colder, and it had been three days, the horse corpses still did not rot or rot. Meng Tianhu walked to the corpse of a horse and squatted down. He observed for a while and then sniffed the horse's body odor.

Meng Tianhu suddenly stood up and said: This group of wastrel, leaving such a good meat here, it's such a pity. Men, gather all the meat that we can eat and put it away. We'll stew it!

In reality, this couldn't be blamed on Huan Wen. He had too few troops, and during the day, it was simply impossible for him to defeat the thousands of cavalrymen. Even if he had injured a portion of the Xianbei member because of the explosion from the Heaven Bombing grenade, he was still worried that the losses to his troops would be too great.

Just at this time, Huan Wen was leading the soldiers on a tour around the city. He arranged a limited amount of troops on the city walls and inside the city, and guarded the Xichuan City like a metal barrel. He was in charge of patrolling the city at night while he took care of Xichuan's government during the day. Huan Wen had given a lot of rewards to the Qin soldiers s who had accomplished a great service in battle, and gave him great treatment to those Xianbei member s who were willing to surrender to the Qin Army. However, even Huan Wen would not show mercy to those Xianbei member s who were unwilling to join the Qin Army and do battle alongside the Qin Army. After obtaining Xichuan, Huan Wen had also started a massacre in the Xichuan City. All those who were loyal to Murong Ke and supported him with their hearts were to be put to death.

The head was right on top of the city wall. It caused the entire city to be covered in blood. Meng Tianhu looked at the frozen blood on top of the city and lamented, "Truly a good man of my Great Qin. With more than a thousand troops, he forcefully attacked a city that is guarded by heavy soldiers.

With the addition of Meng Tianhu Tribe, the Xichuan City's defense was even more stable. Forget about the Xianbei member, even if they tried to attack the city long term, without ten times the military strength and enough machinery, trying to take down Xichuan would be no easy task.

Three days later, Huangfu Zhen finally saw Xie Fei on the flagship of the Fourth Fleet. Although Huangfu Zhen was extremely shocked over why Xie Fei had returned to Korea, he had lost all confidence in the trip he had to make, if Xie Fei was in Chang An, this could at least buy a few months for the Yan State. From this point onwards, Yan State's chances of winning would increase by a few points.

But it had only been three days, and even if he went back, it wouldn't take more than eight days. The situation appeared to be even worse. Thinking about that, Huangfu Zhen took the initiative to intimidate others. Taking a deep breath of his Dantian's Qi, he stood straight and shouted: Yan State is innocent, His Majesty has issued a command!

Xie Fei laughed: You saw it right? When you fought with him, and they couldn't beat you, they would reason with you, and if you reason with them, they would fight with you. Hehe, Lord Huangfu came forward to speak!"

Huangfu Zhen took a few steps forward, and greeted him with the courtesy of a ruler and official, Your Majesty is a kindhearted and kind person, and has had a enlightened ruler since the ancient times. The rise of troops caused the number of people in the Yan State to increase by ten countries by twenty-nine. The flames of war erupted from all directions, and the innocent people were troubled?

Huangfu Zhen's words were impassioned, it caused the faces of Tao Kan, Bi Hu, Wang Tanzhi and the others to change.

Tao Kan helplessly shook his head and muttered: No matter how sharp your words are, my Emperor has already made up his mind. I am afraid that he will not change because of you.

Xie Fei laughed at the sky: Lord Huangfu is so eloquent, so sharp, and so capable of turning black into white! Everything has its cause. If it wasn't for the fact that Mister Huangfu forgot about everything, would you know what happened in Yongxing's first year?

Huangfu Zhen was speechless.

Xie Fei stood up and said in a clear voice, "If it was so easy for Lord Huangfu to forget, we can tell you that in the first year of Yongxing, Murong Tribe not only failed to help the Duke, but also looted the Central Plains, looting countless of wealth as well as tens of thousands of Han girls. Along the way back to the teacher's camp, they raped all the other girls and used them as military rations to slaughter and cook. When they walked to Hebei Yi Shui, only 8000 girls were left to eat. Seeing that, Youzhou Wang Jun wanted to hand over the plundered Han Chinese. Murong Fei did not want to let them go, so all 8000 girls were drowned, and Yi Shui ended the flow.

Xie Fei pointed excitedly at Huangfu Zhen and said: Do you know how wide Yi Shui is? To have Yi Shui cut off the flow, do you know how many people we have to fill in?

Huangfu Zhen was drenched in cold sweat. Of course he knew about this, but in order to avoid conflict with Wang Jun, he didn't leave any survivors. How did Xie Fei know?

Seeing Xie Fei being so furious, Huangfu Zhen's eyes turned as he calculated. He took out a roll of Huang Ling from his right sleeve and said while holding it, "Please don't be angry Your Majesty. Wei asked His Majesty to put an end to the wrath of the soldiers, Murong Hou Liao gave way to the Emperor to quell the wrath of His Majesty. Henceforth, the Yan State would pay respects to the Qin State, and pay respects to him year after year.

Xie Fei looked at the letter in Huangfu Zhen's hands but did not say anything, so he casually threw it on the ground and said: We don't understand what kind of words are used as birds!

Huangfu Zhen said: Your majesty, read down, there is a Chinese translation below!

Xie Fei flew into a rage: What do you mean by putting chinese at the bottom? You are insulting my Great Qin, since when have my Great Qin ever been under his wing?

Huangfu Zhen saw that Xie Fei was acting shamelessly, and he trembled from anger. His white beard fluttered in the wind, but he was under someone else's roof. How could he not bow his head? If he was weak, what else could he say? The strong ones came and the soft ones came. Xie Fei was determined to take down the Tang Empire, what else could he do?

Huangfu Zhen's face was ashen, and he suddenly fell to the ground. Removing the hat, kowtowing to the golden bricks, he placed down his status and started begging, his words were as though he was crying and complaining, all the people on the ship were moved upon seeing him, Xie Fei could not wait and slowly stood up and shouted: Huangfu Zhen!

Huangfu Zhen raised his head.

Xie Fei said: I shall tell you the truth today, natural selection of things is actually something, the strong preys on the weak, the strong reigns supreme. If the Great Qin is weak, I have nothing to say, right now the Great Qin is strong, the Yan State is weak, Qin Tuntun is strong, it is only natural! Besides, how can I allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the bed?] Do you understand? Don't do those useless things. After we show our determination, other than surrendering, there is no other choice for Yan State!

Huangfu Zhen couldn't say anything at this time. I'm telling you so straightforwardly, if I'm stronger than you, then that means I'm bullying you! Speaking to this point, Huangfu Zhen stuttered as he stood up. He did not bid farewell to Xie Fei and left immediately.

But just as he walked to the entrance of the warehouse, Xie Fei suddenly said: Huangfu Zhen, do you know what we hate the most in our life?

Huangfu Zhen asked with listless eyes: What?

Xie Fei took a big step forward, grabbed Huangfu Zhen's collar, and said coldly, What we hate the most are you dog traitors. If the two nations do not kill you, I will not kill you, but if I see you and leave you no memory, I am afraid I will feel sorry for you.

Ah!" Huangfu Zhen screamed miserably as he covered his nose with his hands. However, blood soon flowed out from the gaps between his fingers.

Xie Fei said: Anyone can kill a traitor. The moment our Yan State is trampled to the ground is the day your Huangfu Sect will be annihilated! Remember, you don't have many days left to live!

CHAPTER 504 - FRESH AND SUBLIMATE PATHWAY(14)

Xie Fei was not a pedantic person, so he did not deliberately follow the rules of the two nations. Xie Fei ordered the rest of the Yan State s to cut off their noses and drive them out. Xie Fei looked at Huangfu Zhen and the others who were staggering about, and then he muttered to himself, Murong Ke is really lucky, it seems like he doesn't have any intention of giving in.

In fact, even if Murong Ke surrendered sincerely, Xie Fei, who was familiar with this piece of history, would really not accept it. Xie Fei was not a qualified politician. He was just an Iron-Blood soldier, a true man. However, the biggest difference between soldiers, men and politicians was that politicians only cared about benefits. Whether it was men or soldiers, they all loved and hated each other.

Xie Fei said to Wang Tanzhi, Xianbei member originated from Tung Hook. They are the same as Tung Hook, capricious and weak. As for Qin Qiang, he must be eliminated. Now, other than the battleship s used to seal off the Fourth Fleet, all the other transport ship s have been drawn out to transport food and supplies from Qing, Ji, Ke, Xu, Yang Wu Prefecture, one is used for the war, and the other is to pacify the people of Laizhou after the war.

Wang Tanzhi said: Your Majesty, rest assured, this subject will do everything in his power to ensure that the mission is completed!

Xie Fei said to the attendants, Order all Guard s other than the Western Region, Haizhou s and Jiao Prefecture s to fight in turns in the Laizhou!

Right now, there was a serious problem laid in front of Xie Fei. After more than ten years of steady development, the Qin State's overall strength had increased by a lot, but at the same time, a serious problem had also appeared. Although a large number of old soldiers had retired, and the new recruits who had entered the army had not fought battles either, those low-level generals, especially the senior generals, were still okay. They were all killed from mountains of corpses and seas of blood. They had rich combat experience, so their combat capabilities weren't too restricted.

However, the Guard's troops were different. In these ten years, a few sporadic wars had long been settled easily by the regular troops. The Guard did not have any actual combat experience. The Guard was equivalent to the forces that could be mobilized during the second stage of the Qin Army. If they were to fight the Gupta Empire directly, the regular army would definitely suffer a large number of casualties, and the Guard army would have to pull the front lines to fight, if these troops did not experience a bloody battle, the impact would be fatal. Therefore, Xie Fei planned to have all the s from the various provinces participate in the battle. Every Guard s that came to the Yan State would only fight one battle with the Yan Jun, and once they saw the blood, they would immediately withdraw and fight. Although this would result in a huge consumption of resources for the Qin Army, Xie Fei was not worried, since it would definitely progress for more than ten years. Whether it was the economic strength or the national treasury, the Qin State could withstand the consumption.

Xie Fei thought about it carefully again. He was worried that Murong Ke might not be able to escape unscathed, so he used his Elite Armament to sneak in an attack. Therefore, he immediately ordered Qin Haoran to move forward slowly. Every day, he would travel ten miles, and whenever he went to camp, he would have to place himself in a horse pit. Furthermore, he had to dig ditches in front of the military stronghold and use the terrain as a barrier. With regards to the newly developed touching mines that the Institute of Martial Studies had developed, Xie Fei also sent someone to deliver them to Qin Haoran.

After making all these arrangements, Xie Fei still felt that he had overlooked something. But he couldn't understand. Xie Fei shook his swollen head and walked to the deck. At this time, dozens of small battleship s from the Fourth Fleet were practicing offense and defense on the Han River. Wang Tanzhi trained his soldiers to form his own system. Following the wave of the central command flag, each battleship moved according to the command, moving left and right, moving forward and retreating at the same time. Xie Fei was dazzled by what he saw.

Wang Tanzhi saw that Xie Fei had arrived on the deck and rushed over to pay his respects. At this moment, a taiji diagram uncontrollably appeared in Xie Fei's mind. He was wondering if Taiji gave birth to two images, two images giving birth to four images, and was instead the flag of the future generation of Korea. At this time, Xie Fei finally understood what he had overlooked. It was Korea. It was the Koreans.

Xie Fei had long seen the shamelessness and shamelessness of Koreans, whether it was in his previous life or this life. Honestly speaking, he looked down on Koreans from the bottom of his heart. Especially in terms of shamelessness, Qu Yuan of China was now referred to as Korean, and the Dragon Boat Festival was actually theirs, Korea. Li Shizhen was also from Korea. Now that Xie Fei found the crux of the problem, he finally smiled.

He had to incorporate the Korean Peninsula into his map, but towards the Korean ancestor, he shouldn't raise a tiger.

In the past fifteen years of Tai Ping, the cold wind had been piercing Murong Ke's bones. He had set up four brazier in the tent of the Central Army, but he still felt that it was abnormally cold. As the situation progressed, Murong Ke looked lonely and dazed like a statue.

After more than ten days of rest, Qin Army, who had received supplies from the rear to protect himself from the cold, launched a new round of attack. It was still the same as before, Qin Haoran was still stable and steady as he slowly advanced, further compressing the Yan Jun's movement space. Murong Ke wanted to attack one part of the Qin Army, but the other parts of the Qin Army were responding to him, the moment they were attacked, they would immediately be on the defensive, while the other parts of the Qin Army would immediately surround him.

Actually, Qin Haoran's attack on the Yan State was similar to his fifth encirclement and annihilation of the Red Army. In terms of strategy, he used offense and strategy, and adopted a defensive stance. However, as time passed, the noose around Yan Jun's neck that was being worn by Qin Army would become tighter and tighter, and the space left behind by the strategy would become increasingly narrow. When Murong Ke realized what had happened, he was even more passive. His thirty thousand soldiers and horses were all compressed in a small area that was dozens of kilometers west of Xichuan.

Qin Haoran got Xie Fei's instructions and started a battle on site with the Yan Jun, fighting to the point of exhaustion. He used the wide area of the Qin State as a place with a lot of people to fight an asymmetric battle with the Yan Jun with rich food and money. Throughout history, there had been many instances where the strong could overcome the weak. However, they all shared the same trait, and that was when a commander with great strength had made an obvious mistake.

At this time, Murong Ke was a little disheartened. He had issued an order for more than ten days, but he had not received any news from the other Yan Jun s. Murong Ke came back at this time, but he did not bring the news that Murong Ke wanted, but instead came back in despair.

What made things worse was that Murong Ke was in a passive position, and his supplies were running out. In the past, the biggest impression the nomadic peoples gave the Han Chinese was that they came and went as fast as the wind. They moved erratically, and without any logistics supply lines, they were very difficult to deal with. In fact, all of the nomadic peoples's cavalry all had supplies, but their supplies were different from the Chinese's, they needed a lot of food, and their supplies were only jerky. Before the war, every single cavalry would carry meat that weighed tens of kilograms, and these jerky was made from special secret methods of cattle or sheep, and the jerky carried by a single cavalry was enough for them to consume a month's worth of supplies. Furthermore, they would have to use war support tactics to rob the place, so they could persevere for a longer period of time.

In fact, the Xianbei member also needed supplies, and with tens of thousands of men and horses, the daily consumption rate was not a small number.

On this day, Murong Ke received yet another shocking piece of news. The Hu Dahai clan had already walked out of the mountains, and under the coordination of the Fourth Fleet of the Qin Army, they began attacking the Hanjiang Plain s. After fighting for more than a month, Hu Dahai occupied a large portion of the Hanjiang Plain s. Although the Hanjiang Plain only took up one tenth of the Korean Peninsula, he was currently the largest food crop production area in the entire Yan State. After losing the Hanjiang Plain, not only did the Yan State lose the largest food production base, he also lost a space that he could take a strategic detour to.

What was even worse was that the main forces of the Yan State, including the Flying Dragon, Flying Tiger and Flying Leopard, which were under Murong Ke's direct control, were all compressed in the area south of Da Tong Jiang and surrounded. If these three troops were not supported, they would gradually be eaten by the Qin Army.

Murong Ke's heart became heavy. He came out to patrol the troop, wanting to rely on his prestige in the army to raise the morale. However, the more Murong Ke looked at the camp, the angrier he became. Right now, the morale of the Xianbei member was extremely low, Murong Ke recalled back then, when the Xianbei member, under the leadership of the Large Single On's Murong, had fought their way into the advanced realm countless of times. Whether it was money, food, or slaves, they had all been reaped great rewards, but now, the space in which they were restricted by the Qin Army had to move even further, and they could only shiver in the cold wind. Although Murong Ke was wearing a fur coat, he still felt unusually cold inside.

Right now, the Xianbei member was completely devoid of food, and was shrouded in misery. Even Murong Ke, the king of the Yan State, could only get a palm-sized piece of dried meat, so one could imagine how much food other ordinary soldiers could get. Not to mention Murong Ke, even the greatest and most powerful person in history, the sandalwood locust, would not be able to save him!

At this time, not to mention Murong Ke, even the leaders of the various tribes were also worried. As the Qin Army had compressed them further, even their war horses were being fed enough grass, causing them to become thinner and skinnier. If this continued, their best comrade would probably become too skinny to run away. However, this was not the most frightening thing. The most frightening thing was that they had all finished their stored meat jerky.

When it was dark, Murong Ke summoned all of the generals to discuss politics. Murong Ke cleared his throat, glanced at the generals, and asked: What do we do now?

All the generals of Yan State lowered their heads in silence, pretending to be stupid. However, if they were to talk about the current difficulties, they might not be able to finish for three days and three nights. However, if they wanted to think of a way to resolve it, they did not know how to do so!

At this time, the gazes of all the generals could not help but focus onto Huangfu Zhen, whose head only had its mouth and eyes left. Although Huangfu Zhen had always trusted him a lot, the other Xianbei member s had always hated him. Think about it, even though the Xianbei member is barbaric and ignorant, they still know the most basic of shamelessness. However, at this time, other than Huangfu Zhen, there was no one else who had a good idea.

Huangfu Zhen had just cut Huangfu Zhen's nose, and when his mouth moved, he was in so much pain that he broke out in cold sweat. Huangfu Zhen clenched his teeth and insisted: Your Highness, this subject has a plan that can resolve this critical situation!

As expected, Murong Ke did not disappoint him, and quickly stepped forward to grab Huangfu Zhen's hand. Then tell me quickly!

Huangfu Zhen said: Qin Army is pushing me too hard. Our troops will retreat again and again, and if we retreat any further, we will reach the Xichuan City. If the Qin Army attacks from behind, our Yan Jun will suffer heavy losses. However, if we attack from the front, even if we go all out, we still won't be able to achieve victory! Now, we can only bypass the Wolf Forest Mountain and enter Tzu Jiang Road, which is located in the southern part of the Ping An Road."

Murong Ke pondered for a moment, and asked: There is only one road leading into the Liujiang Road, Wild Wolf Forest Mountain's terrain is complex and changeable, moreover, it is bumpy and cannot be passed by war horses at all, how can we safely pass through the Wild Wolf Forest Mountain?

Huangfu Zhen said: This subject has previously asked the hunters of the five great mountains, many of them have entered the path of safety from the wild wolves in the forest. Although the road ahead is difficult, a war horse can still ride it after a short rest. Although there are some difficulties, it is still better than waiting for your death here!

Murong Ke said: "This method is feasible.

Even though there will be deaths of warriors from Wolf Forest Mountain, it is still better than letting the Qin Army target us! "

At this time, Murong Han, who had been silent the entire time said: Your Highness, I'm afraid if we cannot escape from this place, we will starve to death. Now that all the soldiers have meat jerky in their hands, I have calculated everything, from this wild wolf forest mountain to safe southern road. It will take at least six days, but even if the dried meat in our hands reduces our appetite, it won't last three days.

Murong Ke asked: Do you have a way?

Murong Han said: I have no choice. Maybe Huangfu Zhen has a way?

Huangfu Zhen's body trembled, but he did not say anything for a long time. It wasn't impossible to solve the problem of food, but once he said it, he would be trapped in a situation where he wasn't even human anymore. Even in the Ming Dynasty, where beef was delicious, killing a cow would be considered a crime. The light ones would be sent to exile, while the heavy ones would be executed at home. Huangfu Zhen knew that Murong Han definitely wanted to kill his warhorse and use it as food. But he didn't dare to say it out loud. He was determined to take the lead!

Huangfu Zhen muttered: This subject has no other choice!

Murong Ke also thought of this point, but he couldn't say it out loud. The war horse was the second life of the Xianbei member, if he were to say it, even if the thirty thousand Xianbei member could get out of this predicament, he would still be scolded to death by the other Xianbei member!

Helplessly, Murong Ke waved to everyone to disperse
