When I was in Qin Dynasty, I lost contact with the wave

Chapter 702: Zhang Ji captures Yan Dan
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Ji lightly kicked his horse's belly and rushed towards the Yan army's central camp. Fu Kuan and Guan Ying had no time to say goodbye and hurriedly led their troops to follow.

It's just that Zhang Ji's horse was too fast. The Ferghana horse under his crotch was already better than an ordinary thousand-mile steed. The horses of Fu Kuan, Guan Ying and their cavalry were not even considered thousand-mile steeds, so naturally they could not catch up with Zhang Ji.

For this BMW with strong and powerful limbs that looked as if it was bathed in blood, wearing heavy iron armor only reduced its speed to the same as that of an ordinary steed.

Being hit by such a fully armored and speeding Arabian horse, a captain of the Yan army was thrown backwards like a kite with a broken string. He fell to the ground, spitting blood and unable to move. His bones and muscles were broken, and even his internal organs were probably shattered by the impact.

Zhang Ji wielded the Pozhen Overlord Spear with both hands and twisted the handle. The gears in the spear started to rotate. The moment Zhang Ji swung the spear again, the spear body, which was nearly four meters long, instantly expanded to six meters. The indestructible spear blade was attached with the black and white internal force and became even more invincible. It swept away more than twenty people on the right side like a sweeping army, and also hit dozens of people behind him.

Chopping, lifting and stabbing, Zhang Ji repeated these three boring actions again and again, taking the lives of the enemy soldiers one by one.

As for the cold arrows shot at him from time to time, Zhang Ji was too lazy to care about them. He would simply hear a thud, and suddenly feel an itch in his chest or back, and then see an extra arrow stuck in his armor.

Even if the five-stone crossbow shot at Zhang Ji, it only made him feel pain but could not break his defense at all.

The practice of both internal and external skills is so unreasonable. The destructive power of a grandmaster on the battlefield has long been far beyond that of ordinary generals. He is like a human cone that cannot be stopped no matter where he rushes.

Seeing that Zhang Ji had already rushed outside the central army camp, the generals of the Yan army became anxious.

If they were really killed by Zhang Ji or even broke into the central army camp and captured the king, all of them would be nailed to the pillar of shame among military strategists.

This is even more painful than them!

If they were nailed to the pillar of shame among military strategists, like Zhao Kuo, they would even rather be exterminated along with their entire clan!
Even though their three tribes might not want this to happen, the generals of the Yan army were now like chickens with blood pumped up, desperately pushing forward their best troops.

The Yan army's bows and crossbows no longer cared about the risk of killing friendly forces, and all focused their fire on Zhang Ji. The Yan army, each holding a spear, formed a gun formation to block Zhang Ji's way.

Although the hands of those Yan soldiers turned white and their hands holding the spears were shaking, they still disregarded their lives and tried to stab the Ferghana horse under Zhang Ji's crotch with their spears.

Even if he was a master, without the Ferghana horse he would be trapped in the Yan army's formation.

Although Zhang Ji's speed when using the Lightning Step was no less than that of a Ferghana horse in armor, that also meant that a lot of his internal energy would be consumed in the lightness work.

A master who has exhausted his internal energy is no longer a threat.

However, Zhang Ji's level of external strength is already comparable to that of a master. Even if his internal energy is exhausted, his body is still invulnerable to swords and spears, and immune to all poisons. The arm strength he developed while exercising his body is enough to sweep away most of the world's greatest military generals.

But on the battlefield, the longer you are, the stronger you are, which is an eternal truth.

Zhang Ji continuously swung the four-meter-long Overlord Spear to break the formation. The sharp spear blade cut off the spears that were stabbing at him, and the Ferghana horse broke through the spear formation like a red lightning.

Fu Kuan, Guan Ying and others behind him were not so relaxed, but only a few of them fell down when they ran into the gun array, and then everyone's lives were taken away cruelly and ruthlessly like a flood.

In the blink of an eye, Zhang Ji and the 800 cavalrymen behind him had already rushed to the outside of the central army camp.

As a temporary camp, there were not many defensive fortifications built in the central army camp. Yan Dan believed that the city would be captured in today's battle, so no fortifications were built or trenches dug outside the camp, only some temporary chevaux de frise and fences were made.

"drink!"

Zhang Ji released his internal force, and a spear light condensed by his internal force formed outside the Overlord Spear. With a sweep of the spear, all the barricades in front of him were chopped into pieces. He then turned around and fired another spear to split the wooden camp gate in half.

When Zhang Ji led 800 cavalrymen into the Yan army's central camp, they could not find Yan Dan anywhere, so Zhang Ji simply condensed a ball of fire in his hand.

His fire control skills are far inferior to Yan Lingji's, but if it is just used for setting fires, it is definitely more than enough.

With a wave of his hand, tents were set on fire out of nowhere, and Yan Dan's large banner did not escape the fate of being burned.

Kill the general and seize the flag. Seizing the flag will take away the morale of the three armies!

But Zhang Ji did not seize the flag, but chose to burn it.

It only took a moment to capture the flag. The Yan army could only see the big flag suddenly disappear, but they could not see how it disappeared.

What Zhang Ji wanted to do was to kill people and destroy their hearts, so that the Yan army could watch the big flag being ignited, emitting black smoke, and then burning out little by little and finally falling down.

Everything happened just as Zhang Ji had imagined. Seeing the big banner on fire, the Yan army generals and the elite soldiers around them were furious, but the Yan army soldiers, who made up the majority, became more and more frightened.

Three thousand men broke through an army of 250,000 men!
Although the generals of the Yan army understood that the Yan army was divided into four armies: front, center, left and right, with the front army having 70,000 men, the center army having 80,000 men, and the left and right wings having 50,000 men each, in reality these 3,000 cavalrymen were only facing the 130,000 men in the right wing and the center army.

But there are only three thousand on the other side!

If we were defeated by 3,000 people, what difference would there be between 250,000 and 130,000?

What difference does it make to their dignity if their faces are swollen more or less after being slapped hard and humiliated?
The ordinary soldiers of the Yan army only knew that they were being crushed like ducks by a group of monster cavalrymen covered in full armor, and their morale fell to the bottom.

Moreover, the flag of King Yan, the representative of the central army, was burned. Even if Yan Dan was not dead, he would certainly be in a desperate situation.

Don't expect the Yan army soldiers to be loyal to Yan Dan. Even the Qin army, faced with a series of horrifying events on the battlefield, such as an army of more than 200,000 being penetrated by 3,000 people, the central army camp being breached, and the Qin king's flag being burned, no one would choose to rescue him except the generals and elite troops who were highly treated by the Qin king.

What's more, Yan Dan had just ascended the throne, and before he could show favor, he conscripted the people into the army to fight foreign wars. Although he wanted to establish his authority, that kind of authority could not make the people grateful. At most, it gave them a sense of security. More of his authority was placed on the civil and military officials and the nobles.

Moreover, Yan Dan had not yet been able to capture Wuyang City and kill Yan Chunjun, so where did his power come from?
The political reputation that Yan Dan had accumulated in his early years was completely destroyed after he assassinated his teacher, the Six-Fingered Black Knight, and killed his father and usurped the throne. Even if ordinary people did not participate in politics, they would not love a vicious villain who could assassinate his father and teacher.

The pressure on Jin Xu, Wang Xi and Zhao Ou who were attacking the Yan army's vanguard was also greatly reduced. After breaking through the Yan army's vanguard, Yan Chunjun in Wuyang City also gathered more than 10,000 people to rush out of the city and attack the Yan army's vanguard with internal and external cooperation.

The front army, which was already somewhat panicked, was thrown into complete chaos. Seeing this, the left army was about to send troops to support the central army and the front army, but unexpectedly a burst of shouting was heard.

"Jiujiu, Lao Qin, fight against the national calamity together!"

"We will fight until the blood is shed dry!"

A shout that resounded through the sky was heard, and it turned out that the Yannan Great Wall had been breached.

In fact, the Yannan Great Wall is called the Great Wall, but it is not as majestic as the Ming Great Wall seen in later generations. It is actually just a section of high wall three or four meters high.

The reason why they were able to repel Cheng Jiao's army time and time again was not because of the solidity of the Yannan Great Wall, but because the Yannan Great Wall was built a hundred meters away from the Yishui River. After the Qin army crossed the river and landed under the arrows, they were unable to deploy too many troops on the shore.

Moreover, as soon as they landed, the Yan cavalry would attack the Qin army. The infantry, which had not formed a battle formation, had little ability to resist the cavalry attacking from the river bank. However, the Yan cavalry hiding behind the pass was easily defeated by the fully armed armored cavalry. Without this light cavalry as a support, and with the 500 cavalry led by Yang Wu behind the Yannan Great Wall staring at them covetously, they could only defend the Great Wall.

However, this Great Wall, which was only three or four meters high, could not stop Cheng Jiao at all. As the Great Wall in southern Yan was breached, Cheng Jiao immediately led his troops to attack the left army of the Yan army.

There were also Cheng Jiao's troops, with about 43,000 men, who attacked the left army of the Yan army, which had just 50,000 men. With the same number of people, they were simply unable to compete with the Qin army.

After Yang Wu's 500 cavalrymen tore through the defense line of the left army, the left army was attacked by the Qin army that followed and was defeated in less than a moment.

Zhang Ji led 800 cavalrymen into the central army camp, burned the Yan army's flag and began to look for Yan Dan.

What made him laugh and cry was that Yan Dan was actually holding a scarlet red umbrella!

The most noble color in Yan State is red, so the umbrella cover of the King of Yan is naturally red.

For a moment, Zhang Ji didn't know what to say about Yan Dan. He said that he was courageous, as he abandoned the banner and fled before Zhang Ji attacked the central army camp. But he held such a conspicuous umbrella, was he afraid that he couldn't see it?

Are you still putting on airs while running for your life?

To the extent that Zhang Ji once suspected that Yan Dan had deliberately planned to use the umbrella cover to attract his attention while he himself secretly retreated in other directions.

But with the grandmaster-level eyesight of Zhang Ji, it was indeed Yan Dan himself, and he also had the aura of Mohist martial arts.

Unless Yan Dan found a substitute who could disguise himself or had an extremely similar appearance, and let the substitute practice Mohist internal skills.

But it doesn’t matter if he is really a substitute. As long as he catches that Yan Dan, he will die as Yan Wangdan regardless of whether he is a substitute or not.

As soon as he thought of this, Zhang Ji pointed the Overlord Spear in his hand at the red umbrella cover and shouted loudly: "The time to make achievements is now, don't let Yan Wangdan go!"

With the help of his inner strength, Zhang Ji's shout was heard by the eight hundred riders behind him, and seemed to have also reached Yan Dan's ears.

Yan Dan heard the rumbling sound of hooves, as if thousands of horses were galloping and roaring, and the iron hooves stomped the ground, shaking the earth. Looking back, he was shocked to see a black torrent rushing towards him on the distant horizon, causing the 8,000 guards around him to panic.

The brutal massacre of the Three Thousand Camps just now was deeply imprinted in the hearts of everyone who had witnessed it. From now on, the Yan army might really be frightened at the mention of the Three Thousand Camps. A suffocating atmosphere enveloped the eight thousand guards.

The black torrent swept past, leaving only broken limbs and arms all over the ground.

The main general Zhang Ji bravely took the lead, followed closely by Fu Kuan and Guan Ying. The bloody smell on the bodies of more than 800 people emitted a disgusting odor under the baking sun, but also enveloped them with a layer of cruel aura.

"The one under the red umbrella is Yan Wang Dan!"

"Don't let Yan Wangdan go!"

Zhang Ji, holding the Overlord Spear, rushed towards Yan Dan, while the 800 cavalrymen under his command also fought hard under the temptation of the credit of capturing the king.

Although Zhang Ji has not yet promised the credit for capturing Yan Dan, everyone knows that it must be a huge reward!

Although the Qin army had successively destroyed Wei, Han, Zhao and Wei, King An of Han was robbed while attending Honglian's wedding in Xianyang, and the puppet King of Han established by Ji Wuye was also killed by Wei Zhuang. The kings of the other three countries surrendered after the city was broken.

And if one could capture a king alive on the battlefield, the magnitude of this achievement would be unimaginable.

When Yan Dan heard the shouting behind him, he quickly drew his sword and killed the guard holding the umbrella. The red umbrella cover fell to the ground with a loud bang, knocking down several guards.

Fu Kuan, who was behind Zhang Ji, immediately led the cavalry to cheer loudly, shouting in unison: "Yan Wangdan is dead!"

Hearing the shouts of the cavalry, the soldiers in the central army, who were already in chaos, looked back and saw that the umbrella cover that originally represented Yan Dan had completely disappeared. They were horrified, and the last bit of tenacious resistance also faded, and they began to be defeated.

When Zhang Ji saw the umbrella cover fall, he continued to shout: "The one wearing the red robe is Yan Wangdan! Don't let Yan Wangdan go!"

At some point, Yan Chunjun also led a thousand cavalrymen to attack, and from another direction, they formed a pincer formation with Zhang Ji to chase and kill Yan Dan.

Yan Dan hurriedly took off his red robe and threw it on the ground.

"The one wearing the golden crown is Yan Wang Dan! Don't let Yan Dan, the beast who killed his father and usurped the throne, go!"

"Catch Yan Dan and I will give you a reward of a thousand gold coins from my own pocket!"

Before Zhang Ji could say anything, Yan Chunjun took the lead and shouted loudly, even paying a huge sum of money out of his own pocket!

What does "paying out of pocket" mean? It means that in addition to the rewards given by the Qin State, Yan Chunjun will give an extra reward of a thousand gold!
Suddenly, everyone's eyes turned red and they chased after Yan Dan desperately.

Yan Dan simply pulled out his hairpin, took off his golden crown and threw it on the ground, wondering how the Qin army could identify his identity now.

Guan Ying also showed off his presence by shouting, "Where are you going, you short-bearded thief!"

Although Yan Dan had no habit of growing a long beard, he still kept a short beard and usually sent eunuchs to comb it carefully. But when he heard Zhang Ji's call, he completely abandoned the demeanor of the King of Yan, drew his sword on the bumpy warhorse and shaved off the short beard on his chin, leaving his chin bleeding.

But now there was nothing conspicuous about him. Just when Yan Dan relaxed his vigilance, a red horse suddenly rushed out from the side.

A long spear shaped like a Fang Tian Hua Ji swept across, and the blade cut through the body of the guard beside Yan Dan. The blood that spurted out dyed Yan Dan's face red, making him terrified and he couldn't help but scream out.

"Lonan-kun, please show mercy!"

Tian Guang on the side also knew that he could no longer stand by and watch, and he threw the rule that martial arts masters were not allowed to enter the battlefield out of his mind.

However, Tian Guang forgot that this was a battlefield, not a martial arts competition. What was being fought was not only internal strength and martial arts skills, but also the momentum and the impact force brought by the warhorse's sprint.

Zhang Ji stabbed forward with his spear, and the added power brought to Zhang Ji by the galloping of the Ferghana horse actually shattered the azure sword in Tian Guang's hand with the tip of his spear.

After breaking Tian Guang's sword, Zhang Ji's strength in his hand did not decrease. As the Ferghana horse galloped past Tian Guang, the Overlord Spear that could break the formation pierced Tian Guang's body.

The battle between the two masters only lasted for a split second. Zhang Ji would not let go of this God-given opportunity. His tremendous internal force flowed along the barrel of the Overlord Spear into Tian Guang's body, destroying it wantonly, crushing all his internal organs and completely depriving Tian Guang of his life in an instant.

Then he swept his spear across, knocking Yan Dan and Ju Wu off their horses together, and deliberately knocked the two of them farther away to prevent them from being trampled to death by Yan Dan's royal guards.
