Chapter 1174 The Young Are Formidable
Ye Shouguan raised his hand and pointed at the mountains on both sides: “When the time comes, all my Xiliang soldiers will come to the city to fight with your Great Zhou. This is our Xiliang territory. When the time comes, we will kill as many of you as you want and divide up the Great Zhou. Aren’t you afraid?”
Bai Qingyan raised the corners of his lips and said to Ye Shouguan with a smile: “If that’s the case, then… the catapult will come in handy.”
Ye Shouguan suddenly realized what Bai Qingyan’s catapult, which had not been moved, was used for.
Just as he guessed, if he asked the soldiers on the two peaks to come down for support, Bai Qingyan would have to use catapults!
“According to the terrain of Yecheng Pass, the most important thing for Yecheng Pass is not the city of Yecheng Pass, but the high peaks on both sides of Yecheng Pass. Therefore, the main force of Yecheng Pass must be on the high peaks on both sides, not in the city!” Bai Qingyan explained his fighting style to this senior seriously, “As long as the spies from Xiliang go out of the city to explore, they will definitely know that all the generals of the Bai family, including me, are attacking the city…”
Ye Shouguan’s gaze fell on the young generals of the Bai family behind Bai Qingyan, all dressed in silver armor. It was undeniable that Bai Qingyan was right.
As soon as he saw that all the generals of the Bai family were there, he concluded that the main force of the Great Zhou was in front of the gate of Yecheng Pass. The Great Zhou would certainly attack Yecheng Pass with all its might in order to attract the soldiers on the high peaks on both sides of Yecheng Pass to come to the rescue.
“According to the strategy of deploying troops, the main force will be behind the catapults. It’s dark now… The Xiliang Army can only see the catapults, but they can’t see that there are no Great Zhou Army behind the catapults. The main force of the Great Zhou Army… is ambushed on the peaks on both sides!” Bai Qing said slowly, “If General Ye sends people to bypass the rear to attack the Great Zhou from both sides, they will fall into an ambush!”
Ye Shouguan suddenly realized.
“If General Ye is not timid… and plays conservatively, letting the soldiers on both sides of the mountain come down along the city wall to help, the Great Zhou’s catapults will surely move! Once the catapults move… the main force of the Great Zhou in ambush will make a desperate effort to capture the city wall!”
The Bai family army now has a spearhead force to capture the city wall, and has figured out the detailed structure of Yecheng Pass. It is only a matter of time before they take down the city wall.
But Bai Qingyan didn’t want to use the catapult unless it was absolutely necessary…
When catapults threw flints into the city, it was inevitable that civilians would be injured.
Ye Shouguan nodded: “If I order the soldiers on both sides of the mountain to come to the rescue along the city wall, the Great Zhou’s catapults will lose some manpower, which can actually reduce the burden on the Great Zhou army attacking the city on the two peaks, and it will also reduce the burden on the Great Zhou army attacking Yechengguan! Good…good! Prepare for both situations! Ye Shoucheng…is convinced of his defeat!”
Bai Qingyan nodded: “The situation on the battlefield changes rapidly. It is always cheaper to leave more tricks for our soldiers to adapt to the situation than to fail the first time and then attack again the second time.”
Ye Shouguan agreed with Bai Qingyan’s words. He looked at Bai Qingyan, who stood straight, smiled, raised his hand and patted his legs, looked up at the sky, exhaled a breath of hot mist, and sighed: “The young are formidable! It is said that… after the death of Zhenguo Guo Bai Weiting, Zhenguo Gong Bai Qishan, and the generals of the Bai family, the Bai family army had no successors. Now it seems… the descendants of the Bai family are better than their predecessors!”
“General Ye… Xiliang is doomed to fail.” Bai Qingyan looked at the Xiliang soldiers who were almost all injured on the city wall. “It’s meaningless to resist stubbornly. Many of Xiliang’s soldiers are still very young.”
“How can it be meaningless…” Ye Shouguan looked at Bai Qingyan with red eyes and said with a smile, “My child, behind us Xiliang soldiers… is our country! Our home!”
Bai Qingyan slowly tightened his hands on his knees. No one understood this feeling better than the Bai family army, because behind them was the country and the family…so they could never retreat.
“General Ye…” Bai Qingyan suppressed the surging emotions in his heart and sincerely admired the old senior in front of him, “I led the Bai family army to attack Yechengguan, which is different from the wars that the general and all the soldiers of our Great Zhou have experienced before… whether it is invading other countries’ lands and cities, or resisting foreign enemies!”
“My grandfather, Bai Weiting, was named Bu Yu, which means… he is willing to bring peace to the people and create a peaceful world. He is determined to do so until his death!” She straightened her back. “Only by unifying the world can we bring eternal peace to the people! Bai Qingyan and the Bai family… and our Great Zhou soldiers are all moving forward with this goal in mind, so… the Great Zhou soldiers are not allowed to hurt the people when entering the city! Those who surrender will not be killed! And the cities in Xiliang that were previously captured by the Great Zhou have all implemented the Great Zhou’s new policies, so that the people can live a rich and stable life.”
Ye Shouguan chuckled, as if thinking that Bai Qingyan was trying to persuade him with these words. He said, “Could it be that you overthrew the Jin Dynasty and ascended the throne not for revenge, but for the unification of the world?”
Bai Qingyan did not hide anything: “I overthrew the Jin Dynasty and ascended the throne for revenge, but it was also to protect the people of my Great Zhou, and to unify the world! Someone once said… peace is determined by generals, and generals are not allowed to see peace. I sat on the throne of the Great Zhou just to prevent such a thing from happening again, and to prevent the tragedy of the Bai family and the Bai family army from repeating itself to any… loyal and brave person who sacrificed his life for the country.”
Bai Qingyan raised his hand and pointed at Yecheng Pass behind him: “Just like today, I led the Bai family and the Bai family army to break through Yecheng Pass. It was for revenge against Xiliang, but it was also for the unification of the world! Let all the lands… have soldiers but no wars from now on!”
Ye Shouguan looked at Bai Qingyan in surprise, whose eyes were solemn and determined. Her gaze was calm and deep. She didn’t make up a lie to convince him to surrender. It seemed that this… was the belief in her heart.
He didn’t expect that this thin-looking little girl had such a big heart…
There are soldiers but no war in the world!
Ye Shouguan even wanted to see in his lifetime whether the girl before him could really establish the unified country she wanted.
Realizing that he was almost persuaded, Ye Shouguan looked at Bai Qingyan and smiled softly. After a while, he slowly stood up…
Bai Jinxiu stepped forward and helped her eldest sister up.
Bai Qingyan looked at Ye Shouguan: “General, if you don’t believe it, you can wait and see tomorrow… whether Bai Qingyan is boasting or not.”
“I know you want to save my life…” White mist spread from the corners of Ye Shouguan’s lips as he spoke. He smiled and said, “Your kindness, I, Ye Shouguan, appreciate it.”
This is what we have to fight on…
Bai Qingyan frowned, feeling reluctant.
Ye Shouguan clasped his hands together and bowed to Bai Qingyan, showing his sincere admiration and respect. He stood up, smiling, and said calmly: “I am a humble man, but I am willing to fight against the Great Zhou with my mere eight feet tall body to protect every inch of our Xiliang land.”
