"Backwater Formation?"
The Yan Crown Prince's army was less than ten miles away from Yishui. When he heard that the Qin general was using troops like this, he was quite surprised.
"Could it be that General Wang Jian isn't commanding?”Yan Dan asked.
The scouts from the Yan Country had already finished investigating the situation of the Qin army in front. The content was quite detailed because the other party did not seem to have any intention of hiding it.
"Crown Prince, the Qin army will have the seventh son of the King of Qin, Ying Tianyu, as the general and Wang Jian as the deputy.”
"The rumor about the bet is actually true.”Yan Dan muttered.
"And…!" The spy wanted to say something but stopped.
"And what?" The one who asked was Zhao Gongzi Jia. He was very burly and spoke in a rough voice.
"The Qin army spread that Ying Tianyu once said something crazy." Young Master Zhao, you're a scoundrel. Prince Dan of Yan is a small person. There are more than 200,000 troops in Yan State. I can see them as fine powder in my hand and break them with a snap of my fingers.'”
"Preposterous! That six-year-old kid bullied me too much!" Gongzi Jia said angrily.
"Brother Zhao, don't take it to heart!" Yan Dan advised. He also knew Gong Zijia's temperament. He was rough and unresourceful, but he had a good reputation (which meant that he cared about his face). However, what was there to be calculative about with a child?
The generals of the Yan Country also went forward to comfort Yan Dan,""Thinking about that ignorant kid who is carrying the water array and doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth, when he defeats the Qin army in the future, I will definitely capture him alive and present him to the two majesties.”
"The heavens are really helping Great Yan. That fatuous ruler, Ying Zheng, used a six-year-old child as his general. He is destined to be defeated. Your Highness, I request to fight."
"This general requests to fight!"
"This general requests to fight!"
...
In the big tent, the generals of the Yan Country walked out of the line and began to ask Yan Dan to fight. However, he only shook his head. He still had some inexplicable doubts in his heart, and the source was a six-year-old child.
After a while, Yan Dan shook his head slightly." In that case, Rong Hui, you will lead 50,000 troops as the vanguard of our army to meet the Seventh Young Master of the King of Qin. Gongzi Jia and I will be there soon.”
"I accept your orders!"
After the military discussion, everyone left. Only Yan Dan was left in the empty tent. He sighed in his heart. Ever since the death of Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang, the Mo Family had lost two top-notch masters, and he himself had lost two good friends. After personally sending his two friends to the gates of hell, his heart was no longer as resolute as before. There was only endless hesitation and regret.
After all, Yan Dan was not a cold-blooded person. Perhaps he wanted to become a Mohist and live a life of justice and gratitude. However, as the Crown Prince of a country, even if he was extremely noble, Yan Dan could not live as he wished.
Ten days later, Ji City, Tang Li Hall.
"Brother Wang, look. The commander of the 100,000 Qin army was only a six-year-old child. He did not know the art of war and had his back against the water. However, the Crown Prince had 180,000 troops and tens of thousands of troops from Dai Country's Young Master Jia. In these 10 days, he had not achieved anything and had wasted money and food. Brother Wang, the Crown Prince is preserving his strength. His intentions must be observed!”As usual, the Yanchun Army slandered Yan Wangxi.
Prince Xi of Yan paced back and forth, hesitating. He knew that the most suitable person to lead the army in Yan Country was Yan Dan, but he had been afraid of him for a long time.
"How about this? Pass down my decree to reprimand Yan Dan and order him to speed up the use of troops. If he does not defeat the Qin army within five days, I will remove him from his position as a general.”
"Brother Wang is wise!" The Yanchun Army bowed and smiled. He didn't care whether Yan Dan could defeat the Qin army or not. He only cared whether Yan Dan lost his power or not.
...
"Let's go to Fei Xue Pavilion today!”Yan Chunjun, who had left the Yan Palace, was exceptionally happy, as if Yan Dan's loss of power was already set in stone. He understood that the 100,000 Qin soldiers were led by Ying Tianyu in name, but in reality, it was led by General Wang Jian.
The 100,000-strong Qin army was under the command of the famous general Wang Jian. How could Yan Dan break through the Qin army in five days? Even if he was lucky enough to break through, the Yan army would definitely suffer heavy losses. At that time, he could also slander the King of Yan, saying that Yan Dan had disregarded the lives of his soldiers for his own reputation and position. It was still enough for him to suffer.
Therefore, he was now openly going to Fei Xue Pavilion, the place where Yan Dan was taking care of. He had been drooling over the snow maidens for a long time.
However, what Yan Chunjun did not know was that a pair of fierce eyes were staring at him in the dark.
Yan Chunjun hung up.
How did he die? Rumor had it that Yan Chunjun was in a brothel and had failed to get jealous of a zither player, so he went home angrily. On the way, he was killed by a nine feet tall man in black.
The experts around him were not spared either. According to the legends in the streets of Yan Country, the burly man was covered in golden light and was extremely dazzling. With a swing of his sword, rocks and trees collapsed. It was as if he was the embodiment of a god who had come to the human world to deal with the evil Yanchunjun.
"Where are the assassins? Where did they all go?" Yan Wangxi shouted in exasperation. If outsiders did not know the inside story, they would think that he loved his younger brother very much.
In fact, all the servants who had served King Xi of Yan for a long time knew that the King of Yan did not value his younger brother as much as he seemed on the surface.
"Your Majesty, after Yan Chunjun left Fei Xue Pavilion, he was assassinated by more than ten men in black on his way back to the manor. One of them was extremely skilled in martial arts. Even Vanishing Shadow, the expert beside Yan Chunjun, was not spared. After that, they disappeared without a trace. Our people couldn't trace them.”
"Of course you can't!" Yan Wangxi scolded angrily. He had already determined the mastermind behind this incident.
Who could have hidden so many experts in Yan City? And who could hide them without a trace after the assassination? More importantly, who would benefit the most from Yanchunjun's death?
Yan Dan! The King of Yan had already determined that Yan Dan was the mastermind of this incident without any hesitation.
"My son! You're really generous." Yan Wangxi clenched his fists tightly, and the veins on his hands popped out, making loud thudding sounds. All the officials and attendants of the Yan Country in this room could hear the King of Yan's voice. However, they were silent and did not dare to react at all.
Everything returned to normal. After his anger, the King of Yan calmed down. He felt a chill and fear in his heart. Since Yan Dan dared to attack Yan Chunjun, what about him? What would happen to him?
"Yan Yi!" Yanchunjun said to the officials under the throne.
"Your subject is here?" A wretched fellow walked out.
"How is the situation at Yishui?”
"Your Majesty, our army and the Qin army are still at a stalemate!”
"Trash! An army of 200,000 was actually unable to defeat a six-year-old child!”Yan Wangxi shouted loudly, and Yan Yi hurriedly bowed to apologize.
"Pass on my king's orders. Yan Yi, you will replace Yan Dan as the general, and I will give you another 200,000 men. Within ten days, if you still can't break Qin, you don't need to come back.”
"I... This subject obeys the decree!" Yan Yi was quite excited, but one could not tell whether he was happy or afraid from his voice. After calming down, he felt that something was wrong and asked,"But how can we have 200,000 soldiers in our country?”
"Pass down my orders. All the elders over fifty years old and all the males under twelve years old will go into battle and swear to break Qin.”On the throne, the King of Yan looked at him coldly with his triangular eyes.
