At noon the next day,
Li Xin was patrolling the city defense with his soldiers.
Since this morning, there had been constant unrest in the city.
There were even many incidents of assaulting the Qin soldiers!
Li Xin believed that there were still people hiding in Zheng City who had the goal of restoring the country.
But he did not care.
In any case, there would be an army coming to take over in a few days.
He would leave this to the people to worry about.
"Report-"
Just as Li Xin was fantasizing about his triumphant return in a few days, the messenger rushed in and interrupted Li Xin's thoughts.
"When did you panic?"
Li Xin asked when he saw the flustered look of the messenger.
And the messenger presented something,
"Just now, an arrow suddenly shot over.”
"He directly shot a brother who was guarding the city gate to death!”
"This thing is tied to the arrow!"
Huh?
Han Xin was shocked!
Ever since Ying Ziqing had led ten thousand soldiers out of Xianyang, this was the first time the Qin army had suffered casualties!
Han Xin carefully looked at the items presented by the messenger.
It was a piece of cloth stained with blood. There were a few lines of words written on the cloth.
Li Xin couldn't read, but he guessed that it should be a challenge.
After all, no one would send a love letter in this way, right?
Therefore, he took the letter of challenge and went to find Ying Ziqing.
Ying Ziqing was with Han Xin not because the two of them had something to discuss, but because Han Xin was determined to follow Ying Ziqing after discovering that there was a spy.
Ying Ziqing was speechless.'If someone wants to kill me, can you win?
But Han Xin did not think too much about it.
"Young Master! Something bad has happened!"
Hearing this, Ying Ziqing's eyelids twitched, and he subconsciously looked at Han Xin.
Han Xin also looked embarrassed. He seemed to have done the same thing yesterday.
At this time, Ying Ziqing and Han Xin also saw Li Xin running over.
Li Xin shouted as he ran towards Ying Ziqing, but he wasn't as good as Han Xin.
Therefore, when he was running to Ying Ziqing, Li Xin didn't pay attention to his feet and tripped. He fell and rolled in front of Ying Ziqing.
Han Xin couldn't help but gloat. He wasn't so silly yesterday, hahaha!
Ying Ziqing couldn't help but close his eyes, not wanting to look at these two people.
He couldn't help but wonder why none of his subordinates were reliable.
Li Xin got up after falling, but he didn't get up completely.
Kneeling on the ground, she grabbed Ying Ziqing's sleeve and wailed,
"Not good, Young Master, someone has issued a letter of challenge!”
Han Xin saw that Li Xin's posture was exactly the same as yesterday, and his face was full of embarrassment.
So this is what I look like in your eyes yesterday?
So pathetic?
Hearing this, Ying Ziqing became serious.
"A letter of challenge?"
Li Xin also immediately took out the cloth in his arms,
"Young Master, I can't read."
"But this thing was tied to an arrow and shot over. It should be a letter of challenge.”
Hearing this, Han Xin stopped joking.
Ying Ziqing slowly unfolded the cloth and took a look.
The general meaning was that Ying Ziqing shouldn't think that he had won just because he had occupied Zheng City. The people who had come had already set up a battle formation ten miles west of the city and were asking Ying Ziqing if he dared to come.
The words were filled with the quintessence of Chinese culture.
Han Xin was furious after reading it. Was this even considered a letter of challenge? It was more like cursing.
"Young Master, what do you say?"
Li Xin, the only illiterate person present, asked Ying Ziqing.
Ying Ziqing answered without hesitation,
"Regroup the army and leave the city to fight!"
Ying Ziqing wasn't so decisive because he was angered by the insults in the letter of challenge.
It was because he had guessed that Ji Wuye would send him a letter of challenge!
Ying Ziqing knew that Ji Wuye's so-called strongest general in the past hundred years was just a talent from Korea.
Therefore, he was not interested in paying attention to the barks of these clowns.
However, Ji Wuye still had the Night Birds.
If he hid in the dark and relied on Bai Niao to trip him up, it would indeed be a little troublesome. He might as well take advantage of Ji Wuye's appearance and kill him directly!
Just as Li Xin and Han Xin were about to go down and prepare to reorganize the army,
"Young Master…"
Han Teng also ran over, but he looked normal in comparison.
Ying Ziqing was slightly satisfied.
"What's the matter?"
Han Teng ran to Ying Ziqing and bowed. He lowered his head and said,
"The Wei army is coming from the east!"
"They are shouting at the city gate!"
Han and Wei had always been on the same side since ancient times, so Ying Ziqing thought that Wei would send troops to attack Han.
However, to Ying Ziqing's surprise, Wei still wanted to help after knowing that Korea had been destroyed?
For what?
Hearing this, Han Xin and Li Xin began to worry at the same time.
The current situation would probably lead to a war between the east and west at the same time.
This was a little troublesome.
In terms of quality, be it the Snowy Dragon Riders or the First to Ascend Deathsworn, it was hard to find a whole group of them in the six dynasties.
But in terms of numbers, these two armies added up to less than 30,000.
In the Warring States Period, where hundreds of thousands of troops were easily killed, it was really not enough.
However, Ying Ziqing still didn't look worried. Instead, he ordered Han Teng,
"Send a letter to the commander of the Wei army."
"I've already accepted Ji Wuye's challenge.”
"In a while, the entire army will leave the city to fight him."
"If he wants to occupy Zheng City, then so be it. After I deal with Ji Wuye, I will return and take back this city!”
"Li Xin, regroup!"
Han Xin and the other two were stunned. Such boldness shocked them.
The tactic of besieging a city to attack reinforcements has existed since ancient times.
However, he had never given up a city that he had already taken!
And how strong was the confidence hidden in his words!
