In the darkness of the tent, Xiang Yan, the leader of the Xiang clan, was sitting in his position as commander, his face always stern, as if he was filled with uncontrollable sadness.

A ray of light came in, and footsteps sounded in the tent.

Xiang Yan knew who this person was, because no one except him dared to disturb him at this time.

"The Chu army in Guanzhong retreated."

Fan Zeng's words sounded very calm, but there was no expression on his face.

"I know."

"It's just that you don't seem happy."

In this alliance, the Chu State was the leader, and the Chu army was divided into three parts. The main force was led by Lord Chun Shen. Outside Hangu Pass, the elite navy led by Pang Nuan entered the pass.

The rest were led by the Xiang clan and stationed outside Wuguan.

"We have been given orders from above to be ready to take over Nan County at any time."

Xiang Yan's words were somewhat unwilling. Although retaking Nanjun had always been the Chu army's goal, in this way, it was not what he wanted.

"The alliance is originally about the intertwined interests of all parties. If Pang Nuan did not capture the top, then it would be impossible to capture Xianyang. Before the situation worsens, it is the right thing to strive for the greatest interests for one's own side."

"I understand." Xiang Yan nodded, "As a soldier, it is your bounden duty to strive for the best interests of your country."

Xiang Yan clenched her fists, and her voice sounded like gold and stone.

"It's just that I still feel unhappy."

Fan Zeng sighed. The two were friends. As a counselor of the Xiang family, he knew why Xiang Yan was acting like this?

"Bai Qi spent his whole life on the battlefield, attacking cities and forts, killing people for no reason. We are in two countries, the enemy and we are facing each other, but we have to admit that he has always used his troops to take things in an upright manner. Now, what does all this mean?"

Bai Qi's capture of Yingdu has always been a shame in the hearts of all Chu generals. Both Xiang Yan and other Chu generals wanted to avenge their past humiliation and regain the capital of Ying.

But Bai Qi has been dead for more than ten years, and the Chu generals have yet to avenge this humiliation.

"Although Pang Nuan did not capture the enemy, Lu Buwei's army is also weak. With Pang Nuan's methods, he may not be unable to win."

Fan Zeng shook his head and said.

"This is a soldier's view. But for people above the Chu State's court, Pang Nuan broke in alone. Although he repeatedly performed extraordinary feats, it was ultimately a rootless tree. If he could not maintain victory, then there would be no one to accompany him. Reasons to continue spending.”

"It's just that things may not go so smoothly."

Fan Zeng looked at Xiang Yan, his eyes bright in the dim tent.

"you mean?"

"Those important ministers above the Chu State's court rarely know how to fight. Pang Nuan is the knife hanging over Lu Buwei's head. Now that the Chu army has retreated all at once, Pang Nuan's retreat can be cut off at any time. For him, There’s really only one choice.”

"Retreat!"

Xiang Yan stood up, and the condensed sadness on her face melted away like ice, and she suddenly woke up.

The Chu army occupied the waterway, but was driven back by Lu Buwei's weak brigade. It's okay in terms of face, but how could it be possible to hide it from Pang Nuan?

Thinking of what happened next, Xiang Yan was alert, Fan Zeng's voice echoed in her ears.

"If Pang Nuan can retreat to Hexi, continue to occupy Guanzhong and put pressure on Qin, then he may be able to get Nanjun."

"But what kind of person is Pang Nuan? How could he use Zhao's blood to pave the way for Chu. This knife can no longer threaten him, so will Lu Buwei still complete the agreement as promised?"

"Even if we want to withdraw, we should not withdraw like this."

In Fan Zeng's view, it is necessary to pursue interests, but the method is too crude.

Xiang Yan reacted and asked.

"Who gave the order to withdraw the troops?"

Among the coalition forces, only Pang Nuan and Chun Shenjun could issue the order to withdraw, but it was obviously not them.

Fan Zeng said nothing and shook his head.

"This is a disaster for the country! Who is it that deceives the king?"

Xiang Yan's fist hit the table hard.

Xianyang City.

The Qin Dynasty used Guanzhong as a fortress. When the Shang Dynasty built Xianyang City, there was a city wall. However, after more than a hundred years of development, the periphery of Xianyang City has long been covered with dense buildings, and development is no longer bounded by the city wall.

This was a tragic war. When the military crossing thirty miles outside Xianyang City was lit with beacon smoke, troops near Xianyang continued to pour towards Zhao Jun.

Zhanri held the long sword in his hand and looked at the war not far away, with a cruel smile on his face.

The first-rate masters of the net were sitting or standing, spread out around the sun, looking at this scene.

"The net is all-pervasive. When these three thousand Zhao cavalry troops are weakened, Zhao Shuang will die."

A large number of houses were in ruins, and everything around them was plunged into a bloody battlefield whirlpool. Qin soldiers and Zhao cavalry were fighting each other. Only the general in red armor was unstoppable.

For Luo Wang, they didn't care at all about the death of Zhao Qi or Qin Bing. Everything was a means to achieve their goals.

Zhanri raised his head and suddenly looked into the distance, where there was an unusual aura.

"Yin Yang family?"

The other Tianzi masters in Luowang seemed to have noticed something unusual.

It was a mountain ridge in the distance, with a few vague figures.

"It seems that the Yin Yang family also wants to intervene?"

Jing Salamander stood beside Zie Sun and said.

"Only with Zhao Shuang's head can the shame of the net be washed away. Even if the Yin Yang family wants to intervene, they can't."

There was no room for negotiation in Zie Ri's voice, only the slightest hint of murderous intent that never ceased.

"This is less than ten miles away from Xianyang, but it seems that General Zhao's military power is not over yet."

The two great protectors, the five great elders, all the masters of the Yin and Yang family gathered behind Donghuang Taiyi.

The purpose is to kill someone.

On the battlefield, Zhao generals straddled the north and south.

"Zhao Shuang knows very well that once he shows weakness, he will die."

"But even so, General Zhao's tactics are too unusual."

The voices of the five elders came from behind. Concubine Yan and Moon God looked at Zhao Shuang on the battlefield with complicated eyes.

Donghuang Taiyi spoke slowly, without any emotion in his voice.

"After he crosses the river, he will eventually meet his destiny. The time is almost up!"

The six heads of the farm family were hiding in the countryside outside Xianyang, looking at the battle formation in the distance, and the head of Chi You Hall blurted out a name.

"Bai Qi?"

The remaining five hall masters looked at him, with some incredible expressions on their faces.

"What did you say?"

"The tactics used by General Zhao are somewhat similar to Bai Qi's."

"Impossible. After Bai Qi's death, even the generals of the Qin army did not learn his art of war. Where will Zhao learn it?"

The leader of Chiyou Hall knew the surprise in the hearts of the other five people, because he was also the same at this moment.

"No matter what, this matter deserves attention."

In the battle formation, more and more Qin soldiers came around.

"General Zhao, these Qin soldiers are reinforcements!"

The main military forces near Xianyang have been taken away by Lu Buwei. How can there be reinforcements at this moment? Unless, there is only one possibility.

The red armor was now stained with blood. Zhao Shuang breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the Qin troops in all directions, touched his big, chubby face, and shed glistening sweat.

"Damn it, it's the end of the road!"
