Chapter 488: Ying Yuan is truly a god!
The Yunmu Mountains are shrouded in fog all year round.
Cliffs can be seen everywhere.
There are countless snakes, insects, rats, ants, tigers, leopards, jackals and wolves, and the place is full of dangers.
Even the people who live nearby and rely on the mountains and water for their livelihood dare not easily set foot in the Yunmu Mountains.
Therefore, even though Li Jing had an army of 200,000 following him, he did not dare to be careless and marched quite slowly.
After all, if one dies from killing an enemy, there is nothing wrong with that, but if one is unfortunately bitten by a snake or insect or dies from falling off a cliff.
That would be a pity.
At this moment, the Yan army soldiers, who had been traveling all night, were too tired and needed to rest.
The Qin army outside Muye Pass did not come to pursue them.
So, Li Jing let all the soldiers take a break.
Afterwards, Hou Junji and others began to talk about breaking out.
"We were able to successfully break through the siege thanks to Cao Cao's underestimation of the enemy!"
"Yes, if he withdraws some of his troops and ambush us in this mountain range, even if we can successfully break out, we will suffer heavy losses."
"Fortunately, everything will pass. As long as we successfully reunite with His Majesty, we will have nothing to worry about."
“…”
Hearing this, Li Jing couldn't help but laugh:
"Hahaha, well said."
"I laugh at Cao Cao's lack of strategy and Wei Qing's lack of wisdom. If I were to lead the army, I would definitely set an ambush here. Even if I don't die, I'm afraid I'll lose half my life."
"Cao Cao is nothing but that, nothing but that."
The joy brought by escape made the Yan army generals a little too proud of themselves.
They have been trapped in Muye Pass for too long.
At the beginning, Li Jing was paranoid and thought that he could use this pass to hold back Ying Yuan's million-strong army.
However, what ended up coming was part of the Qin army.
Li Jing no longer had any reason to continue defending Muye Pass, and now that he had successfully broken through, how could he not laugh heartily?
Just when the soldiers of the Yan army were gradually relaxing.
The 600,000-strong army led by Ying Yuan himself was getting closer and closer to Muye Pass.
He was very unhappy with the rapid march.
"Zhu Di, you said that in two days we would be outside Muye Pass."
"The terrain of the Cloud Dusk Mountains is so difficult to traverse, how could it be possible to travel so quickly? Please do not lie to me just to please me."
Upon hearing this, Prince Yan Zhu Di clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, to be honest, I don't know why it happened so quickly..."
Ying Yuan sighed.
In desperation, he could only shout:
"Soldiers, if you are tired, please rest where you are."
However, various sounds soon reached his ears.
"Your Majesty, we are not tired!"
"That's right, I'm not tired and can still walk!"
“…”
Hearing these voices, Ying Yuan could only shake his head and continue walking forward.
The soldiers next to them saw that their great emperor did not sit in the imperial sedan chair, but walked on the mountain road like them.
For a moment, I couldn't help but feel moved.
The speed of walking became faster.
In fact, some soldiers were a little tired.
But when they saw that Ying Yuan was so hardworking and willing to work, they said nothing more, lowered their heads to look at the road and continued on their way.
Normally, you have to rest for a quarter or two minutes after walking for at least two hours.
But the Qin army soldiers marched for six hours without a single complaint.
In this case, how can the marching speed not be fast?
It’s no wonder they have no complaints, mainly because Ying Yuan also walks like this.
He has a physique and strength far beyond that of ordinary people, so he can walk on a mountain road like this for a whole day and night without any problem.
In this way, all the Qin soldiers rested for a night after walking for a day.
At the same time, the Yan army rested during the day and marched at night.
Probably around the early morning of the next day.
Qin Jun just woke up.
The Yan army traveled all night.
Suddenly, the enemy and our armies met in a canyon.
Because they felt that they would definitely not encounter any enemies in such a deserted mountain area.
So no scouts were sent to explore the way.
But unexpectedly, it was because of this small detail that was neglected.
For Ying Yuan, the most embarrassing thing happened.
The enemy and our armies faced each other.
First of all, the generals of the Qin army were all very excited.
People like Zhu Di, Pan Feng and others bowed deeply to Ying Yuan one after another and said:
"Your Majesty, let me lead the army and annihilate all these Yan troops!"
"Your Majesty, let me go!"
"Your Majesty, I beg you to give me a chance to make a contribution. I will definitely not let you down!"
“…”
At this moment, all the soldiers of the Qin army had shining eyes when they looked at the Yan army.
They were like ferocious tigers that had not eaten for a long time.
At the same time, some soldiers were discussing with each other:
"See that man in red armor? He must be a high-ranking official. His life is mine!"
"Why should I give it to you? It's mine!"
"Alright, stop snatching it from me. You're still young and will have many opportunities to make meritorious deeds in the future, but I'm already old!"
“…”
Obviously, they had already regarded all the confused Yan army soldiers as walking military achievements.
Perhaps, some generals have even thought about their speeches when they achieve military success.
At this moment, not only were the Yan army soldiers confused, even Ying Yuan was confused.
