The black army pressed towards Yingchen City. A large flag with the word "Qin" fluttering in the wind was erected next to the "Meng" flag. Seeing the "Meng" flag, Xiang Zhu, the guardian on the city tower of Yingchen City, couldn't help but look even more gloomy.

"Is the Qin army the commander of the army Meng Tian this time? It seems that it is not easy to defend Yingchen City." Meng Tian, ​​as a person who is already shining with Li Xin, Wang Ben, two latecomers, is not unfamiliar with Xiang Zhu, who is about to become his opponent. Look at Wang Ben's destruction of Li Xin of Wei, and it is absolutely impossible for Xiang Zhu to have no fear in his heart.

"Prest a large shield and strictly guard against the Qin army's crossbow formation!!" What Xiang Zhu was most worried about was the terrifying crossbow formation of the Qin army, so he began to call on the soldiers around him to build shield walls of all sizes at the top of the city.

Meng Tian, ​​who was sitting on a tall horse with pure white fur, was slowly pressing down to 800 steps from the walls of Yingchen City, did not rush to issue any attack orders, but was talking to a man wearing Chu army armor beside him.

"Are you saying that Mi Qi has been arrested by the subordinates of the city guard?" Meng Tian looked at the man from the 'Qinyi' spy system beside him in surprise, slowly digesting the news he had just obtained.

"General Meng, it has been more than a month since Lord Wei Liao asked us to lurk in the city that day. Although we have not yet obtained much information, like the capture of Mi Qi a few days ago, it has been a turmoil. Mi Qi's dead soldiers in the city have been killed by the guard Xiang Zhu, but the remaining people have launched many attacks on the Chu army in Yingchen City and have been trying to rescue Mi Qi who was imprisoned in prison.

After many days of observation, we found that the remaining Mi Qi dead soldiers did not leave any remaining hands in several attacks on the Chu army in the city. By the day we left the city yesterday, more than a thousand people had been injured. Therefore, the subordinates believed that these people could never be using any bitter tricks." The "Qin Yi" dressed in the costumes of the Chu army soldier expressed the basis for his judgment.

Meng Tian smiled slightly: "These Chu people are still fighting in the nest before the arrival of the enemy. It's really an incredible feeling. But this matter is not worth exposing you like this, right? You must know that you have been lurking in Yingchen City for more than a month. If you are exposed at this moment, wouldn't it be useless for these days?"

The man in Qinyi showed a proud smile: "If there was no important thing, how could we be exposed at this time? Before we left the city, we had already joined forces with the dead soldiers under Mi Qi and revealed to them that at midnight, we only waited for them to ignite a fire in the city. Our Qin army was willing to launch a strong attack with them outside the city, and cooperated with them inside and outside to help them rescue Mi Qi, and we came to capture Yingchen City."

"Do they agree?" Meng Tian asked incredible.

The man in the Qinyi nodded: "In the eyes of those dead soldiers of Mi Qi, Mi Qi is the object of their loyalty. Mi Qi was originally the prime minister of Qin, but this time the Xiangzhu guarded Xiangzhu strangled them, Mi Qi, and sent troops to attack Mi Qi's house to capture Mi Qi, which made them more willing to cooperate with our Qin army to rescue their lord Mi Qi. As for the possible situation after Yingchen City was captured by us, it is not within the scope of those people's consideration."

Meng Yi thought for a while and made a decision: "Anyway, a strong attack is indispensable to attacking Yingchen City. It is just changing time from day to night. This kind of attack is relatively more difficult to defend the city. Even if the dead soldiers of Mi Qi did not launch an attack in the city as promised, we can not expect them to forcefully attack Yingchen City with their own abilities, at most, the casualties will be a little more serious."

As Meng Tian, ​​who has been on the battlefield for many years, although the lives of soldiers are precious, as long as they do what they should do for the generals on weekdays, when these soldiers should sacrifice at critical moments, Meng Tian will never hesitate at all.

"Transfer our army orders and withdraw our troops." Meng Tian came quickly and retreated. Looking at the Qin army formation that retreated before the arrow was sent, bursts of cheers like tsunamis burst out from the head of Yingchen City. Even Xiang Zhu, who was originally facing a great enemy, suddenly felt a little puzzled by the Qin army's retreat, but he still breathed a deep breath from his heart.

However, it may be too early for these defenders of Yingchen City to be happy.

At midnight, nearly 10,000 soldiers were still stationed on the top of Yingchen City to defend against the possible night attacks of the Qin army. Suddenly, a raging fire suddenly ignited at the grain warehouse west of Yingchen City, and the flames seemed particularly dazzling in the dark night.

"General Xiang Zhu, General Xiang Zhu! No, the city's grain warehouse has caught fire!!"

Xiang Zhu, who was awakened from his sleep, jumped up from the bed and turned over. Before he could wear his clothes and armor, he walked out of the room barefoot: "How did the grain warehouse catch fire? What's the loss?"

"It was Mi Qi's remaining dead soldiers who set fire to the city, and all the garrison soldiers on the grain warehouse were killed by them. Now those people are heading to the prison."

"It's those miscellaneous things again! This time I must catch all these miscellaneous things in one go!!" Xiang Zhu gritted his silver teeth and began to wear his armor with the help of his servants.

Xiang Zhu and more than 10,000 soldiers rushed to the prison. He brought so many soldiers to kill all these extraordinary mi Qi soldiers with absolute advantage. But before Xiang Zhu was halfway through, he saw a Chu cavalry coming to report: "General Xiang Zhu, the Qin army attacked at night!"

"What! The Qin army is coming? Why did the Qin army come so coincidental? Hurry up, the army turns toward the city wall." Xiang Zhu had a layer of cold sweat all over his body. It was a bit strange for the Qin army to retreat without fighting in the morning. This time, taking advantage of the sudden outbreak of the city at night, Xiang Zhu suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.

"General, what should I do with those Mi Qi's death soldiers who attacked the prison? Let me leave it alone?" The deputy general on the side asked with some concern. If Mi Qi was rescued, those dead soldiers who were originally just wandering soldiers would become more organized. And Mi Qi was captured by Xiang Zhu and sent someone to prison. Who can guarantee that he would not launch a retaliatory response to Xiang Zhu after he came out?

Xiang Zhu turned his horse's head and sighed helplessly: "Even if Mi Qi wants to retaliate against me after he comes out, he is a native of Chu after all. Now the two evils are the least, and the Qin army outside the city is the biggest threat. As for Mi Qi's affairs, let's talk about it after they survive tonight."
