Daqin Zhentiansi

Chapter 251 After Today, Toyota County Returns to Daqin

"boom--"

The cavalry charged, and the generals clashed their swords and spears.

Zhang Yuan pulled the blade in his hand diagonally, brushing against Ouyang Xu's spear before running away.

Ouyang Xu trembled all over, spurted out a mouthful of blood, fell on his horse, lost his grip on the spear, and fell into the battlefield.

Several generals behind him noticed something was wrong. The warrior with curly beard growled and waved his long sword, replacing Ouyang Xu in the charge position. The others protected Ouyang Xu in the middle, struggling to resist the tidal attack of the Qin army.

When a large army charges into battle, the general is the courage of the army.

Zhang Yuan's blood and true energy were connected with the formation of the soldiers following behind him. He chopped on both sides with the long sword in his hand. He felt the blade cutting into his body and the blood splattered continuously.

The Wuwei are not the Black Cavalry, and their military formations are far less powerful.

Zhang Yuan also couldn't fully display his cultivation and combat power, otherwise the power of the entire army would expand, and the accompanying soldiers would not be able to control the power of the army and would suffer injuries to their muscles and bones.

To form a military formation, a large army needs more than just one powerful general.

The military formation depends on the strength and courage of all the soldiers and generals who lead the charge, as well as their familiarity with the formation and their level of tacit understanding.

Zhang Yuan charged forward, followed by the elite soldiers of the Wuwei Army and several battalion commanders.

Master Tao, holding a spear, was breathing heavily, with the tip of the spear stained with blood. He was protected by Huang Sanliang and others and ran with the formation.

Huang Laoliu, who had been standing not far behind, was carrying a large wooden box and staring at Zhang Yuan.

He had to observe Zhang Yuan's every move in order to forge the most suitable sword for him.

"kill--"

When the Wuwei were about to run out of strength but had not yet broken through the Northern Yan army formation, Bai Shaoting in the rear let out a long roar and rushed forward with a spear in hand.

Behind him, a thousand Red Scale Army cavalrymen formed a triangular formation and galloped forward with a roar.

On the other side, Duan Hong, holding a spear in his hand, led the old soldiers who survived from Toyota County and rushed into the Northern Yan army.

Zhang Yuan did not look back, his cavalry just ran and his sword just slashed.

The number of soldiers who could follow him was decreasing.

In front of him, there were fewer and fewer Northern Yan soldiers who could stop him.

Until the cavalry knocked away the soldiers blocking the road, and the front was empty.

Toyota County.

That city head.

That city wall.

Zhang Yuan seemed to see himself rushing down from the top of the city wall and fighting to the death.

"kill--"

Turning his horse around, Zhang Yuan looked up to the sky and shouted.

"kill--"

As he killed all the guards of the Northern Yan army, the soldiers of the Red Scale Army who rushed out of the Northern Yan army in the rear all shouted loudly.

The warhorse swirled around, drawing an arc.

In the Northern Yan army formation, Ouyang Xu, spitting blood from his mouth, shouted: "Retreat, retreat——"

The other generals protected him, and the cavalry galloped away.

The original 5,000-strong Northern Yan Zhenxi Army's formation collapsed and the soldiers scattered.

Zhang Yuan led the army in a circle, looked at the completely defeated Northern Yan army, and grabbed the reins.

The cavalrymen stood up.

"My Great Qin——"

Zhang Yuan shouted loudly.

"mighty--"

All the guards following behind him shouted.

Zhang Yuan raised the long sword in his hand and shouted again: "My Great Qin——"

The entire battlefield was filled with roars like thunder: "Mighty—"

Zhang Yuan swung his long sword, and blood beads flew off the blade.

He looked at the mottled city in front of him, and the blood in his heart seemed to be about to explode.

This city, for which he fought so hard, the city he lost, finally returned to Daqin.

"My Great Qin——"

Zhang Yuan rode his horse and rushed towards Toyota County.

All the Qin soldiers and the people in Toyota County ahead shouted loudly.

"Mighty——" "My Great Qin is mighty——"

Thunderous cheers rang out.

None of the Northern Yan soldiers had the will to fight anymore.

Ouyang Xu, who had just stopped his horse after running several miles away, turned back with a pale face.

The others also had complicated expressions, their eyes full of fear.

"These are just Luyang Prefecture's military guards, unexpectedly, unexpectedly..."

The general who was speaking had trembling hands and blood gushing from his shoulders.

They are the elite of the Zhenxi Army, how could they be defeated so easily by the Wuwei of Luyang Prefecture?

Even though the Red Scale Army is charging into battle, the main force of this battle is the Luyang Prefecture Wuwei.

"He can even break through the Dragon Armor Guards, let alone my five thousand soldiers..."

Ouyang Xu spat out another mouthful of blood, and his expression improved slightly.

"Let's go. If he hadn't shown mercy, I would have died in the battle."

The other generals nodded, gathered the remaining troops, and headed towards Beiyan.

Zhang Yuan's warhorse stopped outside the gate of Toyota County, and the people in the city rushed to the gate.

"From today onwards, Toyota County will return to Daqin—"

……

Toyota County, outside the city.

In front of Yu Lin's tomb, Zhang Yuan, Han Xiao, and Bai Shaoting stood there. Mr. Tao, with a pale face and a broken arm, Hu Chunniu, who was carrying a medicine box on his back, and Huang Laoliu, who was also carrying a wooden box on his back, stood not far away.

On the side was Duan Hong in a black robe, and the old soldiers who survived that year.

"Master, we are back."

Duan Hong held a bowl of wine in his hand and shouted to the sky.

"Master Dutong, we are back!"

Those old soldiers all raised the bowls in their hands.

Zhang Yuan looked at the stone tablet in front of him without saying a word.

Rather than giving an explanation to Yu Lin, it is better to say that it is giving an explanation to themselves.

They took back the city that they had defended with their own hands, the city that they had lost.

"When I was in Beijing, my teacher told me that maybe he was wrong back then."

Han Xiao lowered his head and spoke softly.

"If it weren't for my three thousand Great Qin warriors defending Toyota County to the death, we wouldn't have lost just one city."

"What will be lost is the glory of the Qin warriors, and what will be lost is the responsibility of the Qin warriors."

Han Xiao's teacher Zhou Chang, who used this battle to exchange one city for five cities and aroused suspicion and division among the rulers and ministers of Northern Yan, directly submitted his plan to the Ministry of War.

But over the years, Zhou Chang has not made any achievements in the Ministry of War.

On the contrary, he reflected, deduced, and reviewed his plans of the year and found that he was too eager for quick success.

The people, the land, the soldiers, everything is treated as chess pieces.

It seems to be correct, but in fact it is extremely wrong.

The city is nothing.

Land is nothing.

But what about the Qin people in the city and on the land?

If the Qin people can be abandoned, who will fight for the Qin?

If the Qin territory can be abandoned, then what are the places where the Qin soldiers are stationed and guarding with their lives?
Zhou Chang finally understood that the reason why his strategy of exchanging one city for five cities was successful and he was able to enter the Ministry of War smoothly was because of the bloody battle in Toyota County.

Although Toyota County was lost, the military prowess of the Qin Dynasty remained.

Although Toyota County was not defended, the Qin Dynasty would definitely take it back.

If Toyota County had been given up directly at the beginning, Zhou Chang, who planned this matter, would probably have attracted the hatred of countless warriors.

After the ceremony passed Yulin, everyone returned to Toyota County.

Sun Ze, who had served as a county magistrate, arranged to restore order in the city in an orderly manner.

There was no attack or defense of the city in this battle, and the people in the city were not disturbed. Sun Ze arranged the affairs in the city relatively smoothly.

"This Young Master Ouyang Xu is quite good." Seeing Zhang Yuan in front of the county government hall, Sun Ze said with a smile, "I heard that he was interested in forming an alliance with the Qin Dynasty and even signed a treaty?"
