Daqin Engineers

In fact, it is not just Yan Wangxi, Sima Shang and others are also confused.

The trebuchet ahead clearly smashed the wooden bridge being built by the Qin Army!

Qin Jun’s wooden bridge has clearly been smashed into many holes!

How could Qin Jun suddenly appear in front of him to attack the camp?

Even if you cross the river, it won't be so fast!

Could it be that Qin Jun got out of the ground and failed?

Sima Shang said at the beginning that only a small part of the Qin army swam to make trouble...

For this part of Qin Jun Sima still thinks that there is no need to worry too much.

On the one hand, the troop strength is not many, and on the other hand, the troop usually has to give up the armor.

With few troops and no armor, isn't it a problem that can be solved in a few strokes?

I didn’t want to, but soldiers from the Yan army hurried in to report:

"Great King, Qin's army has come in."

"At least tens of thousands..."

Yan Jun is now in the dark.

King Yan was shocked. He didn't even rush to put on his armor. He only grabbed a warm cloak and took his guard to escape.

In the blink of an eye, only Sima Shang and a few of his guards were left with a big handsome account. The speed of King Yan's escape was even astounding.

After a while, the guard asked Sima Shang:

"General, should I dare to warn the king?"

Sima Shang sighed and nodded.

Sima Shang is different from Yan Wang Xiyi Gan.

Yan Wangxi can escape for a while.

But Sima Shang looked farther...

He knew that if this continued, Yan and Dai would perish sooner or later.

So what's the difference between running and not running now?

Fleeing is nothing more than living a little longer.

Therefore, at that moment, Sima Shang even lost his desire to escape.

But think about the Dai Wang Zhaojia still full of expectations... So he had to rush back to Daiguo camp with his guards.

If you only look at the comparison of forces, Yan Wangxi alone has 5,000 guards, and the main force of 50,000 Yan army is stationed around Shuaiying.

On the other hand, the Qin Army only had the first three thousand people who crossed the river plus two thousand guards led by Yang Duanhe.

In this battle, the Yan army can easily encircle the Qin army.

But before the battle started, King Yan ran away first, and the entire barracks became chaotic, but 50,000 people were beaten by the 5,000 Qin army.

Ji Dan has been arranged by Yan Wangxi to protect the army.

He also inherited his father's style in this respect, and when the situation was wrong, he immediately threw down his army and fled.

Shen Bing and others only crossed the river at dawn the next day.

It was when Chen Wei and other artisans were also transferred to the pontoon.

Almost everyone couldn't recognize Chen Wei, because his face was black and purple, and his official uniform was burnt with holes everywhere, obviously suffering.

When he saw Shen Bing, he shouted angrily:

"Shen Bing, you are so bold!"

"I asked you to take a bridge across the river but didn't see you waiting all night."

"You should defy the military order..."

Chen Wei said that he was going to move forward, and a step forward blocked him like a mountain.

Chen Wei had to grunt and swallow the rest of the words in his belly.

Shen Bing motioned to get out of the way, then raised his head towards the floating bridge ahead:

"My husband, forgive me."

"The artillery was here last night at the order of the general."

"The general ordered me not to tell others, so..."

Only then did Chen Wei see the floating bridge on the river.

Shen Bing didn't know what Chen Wei was thinking at this time, only that the muscles on his face twitched and he looked like crying without tears.

If Chen Wei is not smart enough, all he saw and thought might be the floating bridge in front of him.

But Chen Kui is not stupid. Of course he would think:

If the pontoon bridge had been built last night, and Qin Jun had passed the pontoon bridge to the other side...

Why did the general make him desperate to build a wooden bridge?

Therefore, Chen Kui is just a cover, a cover to attract the firepower and attention of the Yan army!

The thought of Chen Wei made it worthless to build the bridge last night.

Look at Shen Bing, who is unscathed in front of him... Chen Kui is even more choking in his throat.

Of course, Shen Bing ignored Chen Wei, and with a wave of his hand, he led the artillery and stepped onto the floating bridge in Chen Wei's envy and hatred eyes.

Not long after crossing the bridge, I heard cheers.

Shen Bing took a look at it, and it turned out that Qin Jun had pushed back the rations that were intact.

General Qin, headed by himself, recognized Shen Bing, and when he was far away, he handed over to Shen Bing:

"Thank you engineer."

"If it weren't for the engineer to build a pontoon and let me wait to cross the river, I would not be able to seize this batch of military rations."

Other soldiers of the Qin Army also bowed their hands to Shen Bing.

Shen Bing hurriedly returned the gift.

Xu also asked:

"Are there still seized military rations ahead?"

Qin Jiang answered with a smile:

"There are countless piles!"

"This army of Yan is here to deliver food for me!"

The soldiers and craftsmen couldn't help laughing at the words.

Shen Bing and the others continued to move forward, and they saw that the chaotic Yan Army camp was full of horse-drawn carriages filled with rations, just like the headless corpses on the ground.

It's not surprising that there will be so many rations.

Because the Yan army has 250,000 troops.

At the same time, the newly defeated army was in short supply, so the army was also provided by Yan.

So what Yan Guo had to prepare was the grain and grass for the 280,000 army.

On the other hand, Yan's strategy was to besiege the three counties of Qin.

This siege will definitely not be able to be captured in a short while, let alone prepare half a month's rations...

So now Shen Bing saw that the carriages that transported grain were placed on the side of the road in rows.

This was the Warring States Period, an era when people relied on food.

Sometimes no amount of gold and silver treasures can be exchanged for these rations.

For example, when the city is besieged by the enemy, or when the Qin army is chasing the enemy.

Therefore, this batch of rations is tantamount to sending charcoal in a snowy situation to the Qin army. It not only solved the problem of the Qin army's combat, but also solved the urgent need for food shortages among the people in the three counties.

How could this not make Qin Jun ecstatic.

And Yang Duanhe led Qin Jun and pursued Yan Jun in the front.

At this time, Yang Duan and more were not to be able to encircle and annihilate the Yan army, but to grab as many rations as possible...

The chaotic command of the Yan army is also the underdevelopment of communications in this era.

As a result, when the Yan army had been defeated on a large scale, all parts of the Yan Kingdom were still collecting grain and grass and transporting them from all directions to the three counties.

Therefore, Yang Duanhe's pursuit often fails to catch up with the Yan army, but can always run into several grain transport teams head-on on the branch.

Of course, Yang Duanhe would not be polite. He "received" them one by one and then sent them in batches.

Looking at these rations, Shen Bing knew that Yan Kingdom was over.

Yan Wangxi didn't even know the importance of food and grass, without food and grass... What if he could escape back to the city?

In other words, Yan Wangxi knows these truths.

It's just that he was so scared that he couldn't take care of this much.
