Not long after, Wang Li once again came to Yi Feng's tent, his face carrying a trace of a smile.
Yi Feng knew that the matter should have succeeded.
"General, did you agree?" Yi Feng says with a faint smile.
"Yes, I agree." Wang Li nodded.
To be honest, it wasn't just Wang Li and Yi Feng who weren't satisfied. As the commander of this battle, how could Huan He return without any achievements?
However, as a commander, he had to be rational because he had to be responsible for the 300,000 soldiers behind him.
He couldn't act on impulse, and he couldn't act in a fit of anger. This might cause his 300,000-strong army to be completely buried here.
Therefore, when Huan He heard Wang Li say that Yi Feng wanted to take the initiative to charge at the front, he hesitated for a long time before finally agreeing.
Firstly, it was because of the unwillingness in his heart. Secondly, it was because of Yi Feng's previous performance. Yi Feng could bring him surprises every time.
Therefore, it was the same this time. He also hoped that Yi Feng would be able to bring him a new surprise once again.
"However, we only have one chance. If we can't break through Ye City this time, we can only retreat.”Wang Li continued.
"Yes!" Yi Feng nodded and said.
"Oh right, there's something I need your help with.”Yi Feng continued to speak.
"Oh, what's the matter? Just say it. Why are you so polite to me?”Wang Li smiled faintly.
"Can you help me find a few more people who can write and help me write some letters home?”Yi Feng continued to speak, his tone a little heavy.
"No problem, I'll help you find it.”Wang Li said straightforwardly.
"Xiao Shan, Xiao Hu, gather all the soldiers.”After Wang Li left, Yi Feng ordered.
"Yes, General!" Xiao Shan and Xiao Hu hurriedly replied, and then began to gather the soldiers.
"I gathered the army today because I have something to tell everyone.”After all the soldiers had gathered, Yi Feng looked at the young faces and said in a deep voice.
His team was full of new recruits who had been recruited like him last time. The oldest was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and the youngest was only fourteen years old.
However, after these few battles, these new recruits were more like veterans, and many of them had been promoted to first-class dukes.
"I just applied to the general to be the vanguard of the siege.”Yi Feng continued.
Those soldiers all looked at Yi Feng. After hearing these words, the expressions on their faces didn't change much.
They also knew what it meant to be the vanguard of a siege. It meant that there was a slim chance of survival.
Furthermore, during this period of siege, they had personally witnessed the fate of the Qin army that had charged at the forefront.
"This is my choice, but I will not make the choice for you.”Yi Feng continued to speak.
"Those who are willing to be the vanguard with me can stay. Those who are not willing to be the vanguard with me, I won't force you. I will apply to General Wang Li to transfer you to another general.”Yi Feng continued to speak.
"I, Zhang Xiaoshan, swear to follow the general!”
"I, Zhao Xiaohu, swear to follow the general!”
......
Zhang Xiaoshan, Zhao Xiaohu, Sun Xiaoyu, and the others did not hesitate at all. They were the first to stand up and express their stance.
"I, Liu Daniu, swear to follow the general!”
"I, Liu Erniu, swear to follow the general!”
......
The other soldiers also expressed their stance, each and every one of them looking at death calmly.
In the end, none of the soldiers in Yi Feng's team chose to withdraw.
They had seen too many deaths on the battlefield, so they were already mentally prepared.
Furthermore, Yi Feng had brought them along and achieved quite a number of battle merits. Even the soldiers from the other teams were fighting to join Yi Feng's team, so they would definitely not choose to leave.
Besides, quitting didn't mean that he was safe. Life and death were determined by fate.
They decided that as long as they didn't die, they would follow Yi Feng. At least in the entire military camp, they felt that they couldn't find a better general than Yi Feng.
The relationship between them and Yi Feng had already been established during the last great battle, when they were united as one and went through life and death together. That was a friendship that went through life and death, and also a brotherhood that could leave their backs to each other without holding anything back. Those who had never experienced it would never be able to understand this kind of relationship.
Wang Li and a group of soldiers who knew how to write happened to see this scene, and all of them were deeply moved.
This was a true commander who could make his soldiers follow him to the death.
"Alright, then each of you will write a letter to your family and send it to General Wang. If anyone dies, General Wang will send someone to send their letter back. If they don't die, you can take it back when the war is over.”Yi Feng continued to speak.
"General, but I don't know how to write!”Someone immediately said.
"You are looking for General Wang!" Yi Feng turned his head and pointed at Wang Li who was standing to the side as he spoke with a faint smile.
"Yes, General!" Everyone responded and surrounded Wang Li.
"Help me write first."
"Just say, Mother, I'm doing very well in the army. Don't worry, I might be back soon. Besides, I made a great contribution last time, so I might be able to advance one or two ranks and get a reward of fertile land and a house. Mother, I didn't embarrass you.”
One of the soldiers said. As he spoke, his tears could not help but flow down.
He didn't want his mother to worry, so he didn't dare to tell the truth.
However, they couldn't help but cry when they wrote this letter.
......
The others also began to read along, asking those who knew how to write to help.
Some people spoke very long and detailed, while others were not good at expressing themselves. They spoke very little, only one or two sentences.
"Aren't you going to write one?" After Wang Li put away all the letters from the others, he looked at Yi Feng and said.
"Then write one!" Yi Feng thought about it. Seeing that all the soldiers had written it, he, a thousand generals, naturally had to write it.
"Mother, little sister, I miss you. Are you doing well at home?
I'm fine here. You don't have to worry!
I have two wishes in my life. One is to let you live a good life; Secondly, he hoped that the Qin Country could unify the six countries as soon as possible and achieve a thousand years of hegemony and eternal foundation!
The first wish should be considered completed, so I'm working hard towards the second wish!
I only want to die for my country on the battlefield. Why do I have to return in a horse's leather?
If I return one day, I will return to my hometown in fresh clothes and brocade.
If I don't come back, then don't wait anymore!
Son, Yi Feng!"
Yi Feng didn't know what to write either, so he casually thought of a few sentences and wrote them down.
In any case, in Yi Feng's view, these should not be of use.
Although he might not be able to guarantee that all his soldiers would be fine, he could at least guarantee his own safety.
He would not joke around with his life. If he really could not take down this city, he would retreat.
......
Early the next morning, the Qin army gathered again and launched a new round of attacks on Ye City. This would be the last round of attacks. If they still could not attack, they could only give up.
However, the formation of the Qin army changed this time.
Wang Ben's 50,000-strong army was the vanguard, while Wang Jian's 50,000-strong army followed closely behind.
In the middle was Huan He's 100,000 strong army, while Yang Duan He's army was at the back.
Among the 50,000 soldiers, Wang Li's 10,000 soldiers were at the forefront, and Yi Feng's team was among them.
The ten thousand soldiers held shields in their left hands and halberds or Qin swords in their right.
