Pang Yuan led the Zhao army on a rapid march from Jiyang, and in just six days, the vanguard army arrived in Lankao.

The total distance from Jiyang to Lankao is 370 miles, which means an average of 60 kilometers per day. In ancient times when people relied on their feet to walk, this was extremely fast.

The result was that most of the Zhao soldiers were exhausted.

Pang Yuan stationed his troops in Lankao, dozens of miles away from Daliang, to allow the soldiers to rest and recuperate, while also sending out scouts to find out the latest battle situation.

He looked up at the sky with a frown on his face, because every now and then a strange bird would appear above their heads.

He knew it was no coincidence because he saw the presence of a humanoid creature on the bird's back.

If it was really as he thought, all their actions would be completely secretive in the eyes of the Qin army.

Why didn't the Qin army send troops to stop them?

He was puzzled.

"Report, General, there are tens of thousands of cavalrymen approaching us rapidly from dozens of miles away." A scout came to report the latest news.

"Which direction did they come from?" Pang Yuan looked at Huangchi, Pingqiu and other places opposite Lankao on the map.

"General, they are coming from the direction of Daliang." The scout looked nervous and uneasy: "I suspect Daliang has fallen."

When Pang Yuan heard this speculation, her heart was shocked.

He is over eighty years old and has experienced countless storms in his life. He thought he could remain calm in the face of anything, but today he lost his composure!

The reason why Zhao sent troops so quickly was because they received news that Han was destroyed in ten days and Wei was losing ground.

As one of the Three Jins, Zhao would naturally not sit idly by and watch Wei be destroyed, because if Wei was destroyed, Qin's next target would be them!

Pang Yuan's heart sank and his expression became more solemn than ever before.

It was too fast! How long had it been since the Qin army attacked the Wei state? Only a month!

To destroy a country in one month was something that was unthinkable in the past. When the Zhao State's spies brought this news back, all the Zhao State's civil and military officials sneered at it and burst into laughter, saying that only an ignorant kid like Su Xuan could speak so arrogantly.

Everyone regarded this as a joke, but who would have thought that Qin really did it! And it didn't just destroy one country in one month, it destroyed two countries in one month!

If the speed continues at this rate, wouldn't it only take three months to destroy the six kingdoms?

He was eager to know what had happened. There must be some unknown secret. Otherwise, with the combat effectiveness of the Qin army, no matter how strong it was, it would be impossible to achieve this level.

After knowing that Wei was destroyed, Pang Yuan did not plan to stay in Wei any longer.

What he had to do now was to bring these 100,000 elite soldiers back to Zhao State, and then send people to find out why Qin State was able to destroy two countries in such a short period of time.

But he was destined not to have this opportunity, because Su Xuan had already driven the Soldier Demon God to the sky above the Zhao army camp.

The sky had completely darkened, which also meant that Zhao Jun's hope of leaving was completely shattered.

A huge figure that blocked out the sky and the sun appeared in Pang Yuan's sight. At this moment, he knew the real reason why the Han and Wei countries were destroyed.

Is this a mechanical beast?

"Archers, get ready, release!" As a veteran of many battles, he responded immediately and arranged his soldiers to counterattack in an orderly manner.

shhhhhh!

Arrows rained down like a tide, overwhelming the sky and the earth and shot towards the God of War, but they only heard the sound of metal clashing, and did not cause any actual harm to the God of War.

Su Xuan gathered his energy into a sword, and a broadsword that was more than ten meters long appeared in the hands of the Soldier Demon God. As the sword chopped vertically, the ground cracked and the mountains collapsed. The earth was like thin paper and was cut in an instant, forming a crack that was a hundred meters long and dozens of meters deep.

Thousands of soldiers fell into the cracks of the abyss, and bursts of screams were heard. The surviving soldiers were all terrified and looked at the monster in front of them with fear.

Su Xuan slowly emerged from the Soldier Demon God, looking disdainfully at the Zhao soldiers, and finally turned his gaze to Pang Yuan, with a slight smile on his face, "General Pang Yuan, can we sit down and have a good chat now?"

Pang Yuan's pupils contracted and he stared at Su Xuan without blinking. He knew that was the Prime Minister of Qin, Su Xuan!

He glanced again at the Zhao soldiers who were terrified and had lost all morale.

There was a deep crack in the abyss of dozens of meters, and the top of the Baiyun Mountain was flattened by sword energy. If it was only the Soldier Demon God, he could still try to organize a counterattack, because although the Soldier Demon God had great destructive power, he was also bulky and bloated. As long as he used Taoist Qi-refining techniques and attacked the weak points of the Soldier Demon God, he could cause effective damage to him.

But Su Xuan's advanced Qi training made him give up his inner thoughts.

His existence makes up for the shortcomings of the Demon God of War, turning him into a real war killing machine. Once he is put into the battlefield, he is invincible.

The result of confronting it is likely to be the annihilation of the entire army.

Not to mention the demon soldiers in front of them, as long as the cavalry from dozens of miles away came and attacked them, given their current state, they would inevitably suffer an unprecedented rout.

"The young are to be feared!" He finally said with emotion.

Su Xuan jumped off the Soldier Demon God and landed several meters in front of Pang Yuan. "Sun Tzu's Art of War says, 'The best strategy is to attack the enemy's plans, the next best is to attack their alliances, the next best is to attack their troops, and the worst is to attack their cities. To defeat the enemy without fighting is the best of all strategies.'"

"General Pang Yuan, do you think it is necessary for us to continue fighting?"

"Do you want us to surrender?" Pang Yuan turned his gaze from Su Xuan to the Demon God of Soldiers. "If my guess is correct, this mechanical beast should need human control to move, right? You just appear in front of me like this, aren't you afraid that I will kill you and then take this mechanical beast away?"

"If General Pang is sure, you can give it a try." Su Xuan chuckled, his expression remained unchanged from beginning to end, "But if you fail, there will be no option of surrender. I will never show mercy to enemies who want to kill me."

"You're willing to bet the lives of 100,000 people on my life. Do you dare, General Pang?"

"How can you guarantee that after surrender, the 100,000 troops of my Zhao State will not be killed by you like Wu'an Jun in the past!" After a long silence, Pang Yuan asked.

"The weak do not have the right to choose, only the fate of being chosen." Su Xuan glanced at him calmly, "You are not qualified to negotiate with me. If you surrender, you can be spared from death. If you insist on resisting, then this is where you will be buried."
