"General Gao Ming, Xiang Yan is indeed ambushed!" Looking at the withdrawn Xiang soldiers, the Qin generals felt admiration for Wang Jian arose.

Thinking about the time when Xiang Chao challenged, he was humiliated by Wang Jian, and the generals almost burst into anger and wanted to raise an army to chase him. If Wang Jian had not seen through Xiang Yan's plan, the Qin army would have been trapped and caught Xiang Yan off guard, and there would be a lot of casualties.

"General, please give orders quickly. We will chase after you and annihilate the Xiang soldiers." The Qin generals were very excited and shouted in unison, and some even rolled up their sleeves and were ready to rub their hands.

Xiang Yan's 100,000 soldiers were right in front of him. If the Qin army pressed him up, he would at least kill a large part of them, which would be a heavy blow to Xiang Yan, and it would not be possible to make the generals not excited.

This is a good opportunity, and it is logical that Wang Jian will agree. However, unexpectedly, Wang Jian actually rejected it and said, "No need. We just march like this, it's not fast or slow."

"General, why do you do this?" The generals shouted in unison. Although they admired Wang Jian very much, they had no admiration at this time. General Qin's eyes were even wider, bigger than those of cows, and someone shouted loudly.

"Those who violate the order shall be killed!" Wang Jian ordered in a deep voice.

The generals were extremely unwilling to accept this order.

With Wang Jian's cleverness, he would not be unable to see that this is a good opportunity to kill the Xiang army. The question is, what if he kills the Xiang army?

If the Qin army attacked decisively, the Xiang family soldiers would be wiped out, and at least 70,000 to 80,000 will be lost. Once the 70,000 to 80,000 Xiang family soldiers are lost, can Xiang Yan still take over the military power of the Chu State?

You should know that the Chu State is a family of aristocratic families and controls the government. Once the Xiang family soldiers are gone, even if Xiang Yan's military talents are in absurd manner, they will not be reused by King Kaoli of Chu, and they will be swallowed up by the four major families of Qu Jingzhao and Huang, even their bones will not be left.

Without Xiang Yan, the hardcore anti-Qin, the successors might not care about the Huai River and defend their own fiefs. In this way, Qin would lure the resistance of Chu to the Huai River and annihilate it in one fell swoop.

If the aristocratic families guard their fiefdoms and rely on their territories to deal with the Qin army, the Qin State will be in trouble.

Therefore, Wang Jian weighed the pros and cons, but decided to let go of 100,000 Xiang's soldiers. As long as the 100,000 Xiang's soldiers were still there, Xiang Yan could take charge of the military power of Chu, and the resistance of Chu would be concentrated in the Huai River, which would be beneficial to Qin.

"Don't chase?" Xiang Yan led the Xiang army to escape far away, but found that the Qin army was not chasing him. He couldn't help but be surprised.

From a military perspective, pursuing Xiang Yan's soldiers is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It doesn't take much intelligence to understand this. It's something that everyone understands. However, Wang Jian actually let him go, which made Xiang Yan too unimaginable.

Xiang Yan almost thought about it, but she didn't understand why.

"Swish!" Xiang Chao laughed and sneered: "This Wang Jian is really a frank man. He missed such a good opportunity."

"Shut up." Xiang Yan scolded coldly, saying: "Anyone can see such a simple thing. Wang Jian will not understand it. Wang Jian's move must have profound meaning. But why did he do this?"

Xiang Yan fell into deep thought, but couldn't think of any reason.

He didn't expect that Wang Jian was just to leave him a bargaining chip to continue to take charge of the military power of Chu. This required a clever political perspective to see clearly. Xiang Yan had extraordinary military talents but no political wisdom, so he naturally couldn't see clearly.

"Wang Jian, no matter what your idea is, this is a chance for me. I don't believe it, you will not be fooled." Xiang Yan turned his thoughts and ordered loudly: "Retreat slowly."

He wanted to use this to fish for Wang Jian, thinking that Wang Jian would be unable to bear his temper and would send troops to chase him.

However, Xiang Yan was disappointed again. The Qin army did not move at all, as if the Xiang family's soldiers did not exist. They were still using the speed of the march, and they were still promoting them without any speed.

This was enough to surprise Xiang Yan, and what surprised him even more. The Qin army marched for only fifty miles. With Wang Jian's order, the Qin army began to camp.

"I won't leave?" Xiang Yan was a little disbelief, his eyes widened, bigger than those of a cow.

That night, Xiang Yan was worried and ordered the Xiang family's soldiers to be on guard, thinking that the Qin army would come to attack. However, what surprised him was that the Qin army did not move any abnormally and really camped for rest.

The next day, under the command of Wang Jian, the Qin army still marched for fifty miles, and then set up camp and stopped leaving.

This happened on the other hand for four days. Xiang Yan was so surprised that his eyes almost hit the ground. He fought a war all his life, and the first time he encountered such a thing in his life, he racked his brains but couldn't figure it out.

On the fifth day, Xiang Yan couldn't help it and sent a thousand people to attack the Qin army camp at night. However, they could not have thought that these thousand people had just approached the Qin army camp and were shot and killed by the Qin army's powerful crossbows, so they had to retreat.

"Strange things, strange things." The Qin army did not attack, and Xiang Yan wanted to attack in surprise but had no chance. This made Xiang Yan very puzzled and could only keep calling strange things.

Xiang Yan was not a person who gave up easily. He led the Xiang family's soldiers, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and wanted to see the Qin army's reaction.

However, the Qin army did not move any abnormally, but only advanced at the normal marching speed, and only advanced fifty miles a day before rushing.

"General, why do you want this? We can't attack when we watch the 100,000 Xiang clan soldiers in front of us. This is like a cat sleeping on a salted fish pillow, torture people." The Qin general was quite dissatisfied and questioned Wang Jian.

"Implement military orders." Wang Jian did not explain his doubts for them, but instead scolded them coldly.

"General, if this continues, when will it be the end? We won't be chasing the capital of Chu?" asked a Qin general.

"We just chase Xiang Yan and go wherever he goes. If he wants to retreat to the capital of Chu, then let's go to the capital of Chu." Wang Jian raised his eyebrows, like a sharp sword unsheathed.

"But the capital of Chu is too far from the border. If we arrive at the capital of Chu, our food and grass will be consumed. It is too long to transport grain from Qin, and it is easy to attack the Chu army." A Qin general was worried.

"Yes." The generals agreed in unison.

The capital of Chu State, Ying, is far away from the border. If the Qin army really wants to chase Ying, the logistics of the Qin army will be a big problem. The long supply line of more than a thousand or two thousand miles will become the number one target of Chu State's attack, which makes people worry.

"Don't worry, Xiang Yan will not retreat soon." A smile flashed across Wang Jian's mouth.

"Why?" The generals were puzzled.

Wang Jian did not answer the questions of the generals.

Soon, the question was answered.

"Father, that's good. Let's lead the Qin army by the nose and lure the Qin army into the hinterland of the Great Chu. When the Great Chu attacks the Qin army's food and grass again, there is no need to worry about the Qin army not breaking." Xiang Chao rode on the horse, and was very proud and gave advice to Xiang Yan.

"You think beautifully!" Xiang Yan said in a deep voice, with a sharp light flashing in his eyes full of hatred: "This Wang Jian is so cruel."

"Father, why did you say this?" Xiang Chaoda was puzzled and said: "It is a wonderful plan to lure the Qin army into the hinterland of the Great Chu and then cut off the Qin army's food route."

"A clever plan, wonderful fart!" Xiang Yan's face was as deep as water, and she shouted in a deep voice: "Behind us is Shouchun. Shouchun is the center of the Huai River. If we abandon it, once the Qin army conquered Shouchun, it will seize the Huai River. With the prosperity of the Huai River, the Qin army is still worried about not having food or grass?"

The Huai River land is the beauty of the Chu State. It has fertile fertile land and is very rich. If the Qin army occupied the Huai River land, the Qin army would no longer have to worry about food and grass.

If you want to occupy the Huai River, just occupy Shouchun, because Shouchun is the central city of the Huai River. Although it was destroyed by Wang Jian, it has been restored and is still extremely prosperous.

"This..." Xiang Chao's face changed drastically. He thought he was a clever plan to lure the enemy was just a trick to get rid of bad chess.

"Besides, if you lose Shouchun and the Huai River land, can the Xiang family still gain a foothold in the Great Chu?" Xiang Yan's face was gloomy and said gloomy: "Qu Jingzhao Huang Si family has been waiting for the opportunity to deal with my Xiang family. If there is such a defeat, if they don't attack him, my Xiang family will have a crisis of extermination."

The five major families of Chu use each other and fight each other to fight to the death. Never give them a chance, otherwise they will attack them in groups.

If Xiang Yan lost Shouchun and the Huai River land, it would be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Qu Jingzhao and Huang Si clans. They would definitely attack him, destroy the Xiang family, and divide the power of the Xiang family.

Moreover, it is legitimate to destroy the Xiang family. The four major families can act under the banner of indictment. By then, the Xiang family will inevitably be killed.

"Hiss!" Xiang Chao was sweating heavily, and he sucked cold air, and his face changed drastically.

"Father, what should I do?" Xiang Chao no longer had any idea.

"The 200,000 troops of the National Government have arrived. We will camp on the spot and never take a step back." Xiang Yan said in a deep voice, his face gloomy, as if someone had borrowed his silver and returned his chaff.

If Xiang Yan was in his heart, he would never be willing to fight Wang Jian here at this time, but Shouchun was behind him, so he could not retreat anymore and could only set up camp.

In this way, 300,000 Chu troops set up camp on the spot.

"Xiang Yan, don't you run away? Very good, very good!" Wang Jian looked at the Chu army's camp, smiled on his face, and said, "Camp on the spot."

"General, why should we set up camp? As long as you give orders, we will attack, break through the Chu army camp in one fell swoop, and capture Xiang Yan alive." A group of Qin generals shouted.

"If you want to kill Xiang Yan, why wait until the current season?" Wang Jian finally revealed some words and said, "Implement military orders."

Wang Jian didn't reveal much, and finally made the generals understand that Wang Jian would have major plans for doing this, and no one would have any objections. He would go to execute the military order.

In this way, the Qin army also set up camp and confronted the Chu army.

"Transmission: Be careful to guard the camp and do not fight. Chu State challenges, use a strong bow and crossbow to shoot back. Violators, kill!" After slapping the camp, Wang Jian passed on another general order.

After several days of confrontation, Xiang Yan couldn't stand it anymore and sent his army to challenge him, but was shot back by the Qin army's powerful bow and crossbow.

This is true for several consecutive challenges.
