Daqin: Zulong's Traveling Frog

Chapter 106
Just before Jing Ke stepped onto the ninth level of jade steps, ten iron eagle warriors were killed inside the bronze screen.

Qin Wuyang suddenly became excited, his heart pounded, and a foul smell spread from his trousers.

Jing Ke was startled.

what's the situation?
Could it be that the assassination was leaked?
In panic, Jing Ke spread out the map and took out the dagger.

After seeing the dagger, all the officials looked at each other in blank dismay, and the left and right prime ministers shouted: "Your Majesty, be careful of the poisonous knife!"

Jing Ke's face was ferocious, and his voice made people feel like they were in the ice abyss: "Caomin, send the King of Qin for a ride, there is a caretaker on the way to Huangquan!"

But Qin Wangzheng and Jing Ke are still ten steps away, a full 13 meters.

Qin Wangzheng had been prepared for a long time, and drew the Yue King Goujian sword from the bronze case, always ready to deal Jing Ke a fatal blow.

In desperation, Jing Ke could only throw the dagger with wolf's poison in his hand, and Qin Wangzheng was about to swing his long sword.

But Xiao Zhinu took the first step, decisively picked up the bamboo slips on the big bronze case, and knocked the short knife to the ground with a thud.

All civil and military officials were stunned, their faces were full of incredulity, and even Jing Ke was dumbfounded.

No one could believe that a frog had the strength to pick up the bamboo slip and knock the dagger off with precision!

Jing Ke's painful mask and dull eyes were captured by Zhonglang's guards.

Jing Ke seemed to have something to say, Qin Wangzheng didn't want to listen to his nonsense, so he swung his long sword and stabbed Jing Ke in the heart.

puff!

The sword was stained with blood, but Qin Wangzheng had a look of contempt on his face and said coldly: "What the lonely king hates most is the knight!"

It was too late for all the officials to react, Qin Wuyang was trembling, sweating profusely, his whole body was so nervous that he was forced out of the hall by Zhonglang's guards.

The civil and military officials were sweating profusely, and everyone was numb.

Everyone was not only surprised by Xiao Zhinu's quick reaction, but also because how did Qin Wangzheng know that Qin Wuyang was an assassin?
Is it possible that Qin Wangzheng is a wizard?
Everyone shook their heads instinctively, unable to figure it out, they turned their attention to Xiao Zhinu.

Xiao Zhinu didn't care about the admiring gazes of everyone, but just looked at the bamboo slips calmly.

Qin Wangzheng said with a straight face, "Ministers in the court, why are you all stunned, no one is here to help the lonely king?"

After all, Qin Wangzheng cast his eyes on the little childish slave, and said with a smile: "At the critical moment, we have to rely on the little childish slave!"

The little Zhinu showed a gentle smile, and Qin Wangzheng felt a little comfort in his heart.

A cute smile of a frog can always cleanse the soul.

For Qin Wangzheng, who has gone through the ghost gate once, it is a pistachio to purify his heart.

Qin Wangzheng ignored the civil and military officials and interacted with the little child. The officials gritted their teeth, hating the little child for stealing their glory.

Qin Wangzheng knew very well that if there were no special products brought back by Xiao Zhinu, Qin Wangzheng would still be in the dark.

Immediately, Qin Wangzheng's face darkened, his face was not happy or angry, but just his sharp eyes could scare all the court officials to death.

The lonely king wanted to save Yan Guo a small life, but Yan Wangxi didn't know what to do, and sent an assassin to assassinate the lonely king. He was really impatient!
Isn't this a slap in the face of the lonely king?Isn't this the state of Yan trampling on the dignity of Qin?

Qin Wangzheng pondered for a moment, and issued an edict: "The order of King Gu! Withdraw 30 troops from Daliang, cross Yishui, and attack Jicheng!"

A few days later, the imperial edict was issued, and Qin Wangzheng's army will withdraw from Wei State and go to Yishui, and the army will approach Jicheng.

In addition, Qin Wangzheng also appointed Li Xin, who was good at cavalry raids, as the vanguard general. The vanguard troops crossed the Yishui River first and started a battle with the Yandan defenders who were arrayed in the Yan Kingdom. .
At the same time, Wei capital Daliang.

News of Jing Ke's assassination of Qin spread throughout the six kingdoms of Shandong.

When Wei Wangzeng heard that Qin Wangzheng mobilized the army to attack Jicheng, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "The tyrant has already transferred the army to Yan Kingdom, Daliang is saved!"

It is a pity that at this critical juncture, Wei Wangzeng was still complacent. Instead of strengthening his troops, he instead carried out large-scale grain requisitions across the country.

Hundreds of stones of grain were transported from all directions of Wei to Daliang, the capital of Wei.

[ps: One stone of grain is enough to feed five people for a month]

King Zeng of Wei was still having fun in the palace, and despite the dissuasion of all the officials, he began to arrange flowers and jade with the palace maids.

Yan State, on the banks of the Yishui River.

In late winter, the freezing cold made Yandan's hands stiff and hard to stretch.

The fierce cold wind howled, making the flags flutter.

The cold wind hit Li Xin's black armor fiercely, but Li Xin was on fire inside, and he didn't feel any pain at all.

Li Xin was holding the horse with his left hand and holding the spear tightly with his right hand. The Xuanjia battle suit was covered with frost, but an uncontrollable joy rippling on Li Xin's face.

Just as excited as he was, there were five thousand great Qin iron cavalry squatting quietly behind the mountain like a sculpture.

Li Xin looked frantically at the brightly lit camp by the river and the Yan State flag erected high.

Dusk was approaching, and the half-residual sunset was shining. Li Xin stood up slowly, and the thin layer of ice on the Xuanjia suddenly shattered. He jumped on his horse and shouted: "Archers are ready!"

With a big wave of Li Xin's hand, the battle flag slowly fell from the sky. In an instant, thousands of crossbowmen took up positions and pulled their longbows.

After the arrow rained all over the sky, Li Xin stood in front of the five thousand black armored knights, raised his arms and said, "The whole army assaults!"

Li Xin took the lead, and the five thousand soldiers behind him jumped up and stepped on their horses, moving like arms and fingers, in a uniform order.

Above the ground, a black torrent slowly unfolded.

A few days later, a piece of good news was sent to Qin Wangzheng's palace.

"Your Majesty! The vanguard troops led by Li Xin have crossed the Yishui River and started a battle with the defenders."

The censor Feng Wuze had a faint smile on his face, and Qin Wangzheng lay on the slump, and said with a smile, "If you win the first battle, how about beheading?"

Feng Wuze looked free and easy, cupped his hands and said: "General Li Xin, led five thousand light cavalry, drove day and night, and led the army across the Yishui River at dusk."

"Under the heavy crossbow arrow rain of the Qin army, the Yan army killed or injured about a thousand people, trampled on each other, fell into the Yishui and drowned, countless!"

"After that, General Li Xin led five thousand cavalry and plunged into the Yan army camp like a python, beheading six thousand people!"

A piece of good news made Qin Wangzheng's heart flutter, and he couldn't help laughing wildly: "General Li Xin is brave and good at fighting, and he is a true hero!"

The news of the vanguard's victory inspired the hearts of 30 soldiers, and the 30 army, like a giant dragon stretching thousands of miles, rushed towards the country of Yan with majestic momentum.

Yan Wangxi gasped, and anger rose between his brows, but he did not punish Yan Dan immediately, but gave Yan Dan one last chance to mobilize [-] elites from the capital to guard Jicheng!

As everyone knows, what awaits them will be rain of arrows, huge boulders soaring into the sky, and a fierce attack of 30 tigers and wolves.
