    "The whole army crosses the river, and I will slaughter them all to avenge their dead brothers!"

    Qin Lie yelled angrily as he watched a battalion of 5,000 militia soldiers under his command being encircled and wiped out by the Qinghe Army.

    "Revenge!"

    "Revenge!"

    Some officers of the militia also yelled, and soon there was a sky-shattering roar from the west bank.

    "Revenge, fly here if you have the ability!"

    The brothers of the First Banner Regiment of the Qinghe Army, who were cleaning up the battlefield on the east bank and confiscating the corpses, also burst out laughing when they heard the noise from the militiamen on the other bank.

    Qin Lie and the others collected some ferries with great difficulty, but most of them were destroyed in the battle just now, and the rest drifted away along the way.

    Although they were now murderous and wanted to rush to the east bank for revenge, the rolling river blocked their way.

    Hearing the jokes from the Qinghe army brothers on the east bank, the militiamen jumped their feet even more angrily.

    "Quickly build a pontoon bridge and cross the river to attack the bandits!"

    It is naturally impossible for Qin Lie to let his 50,000-strong army swim across. After all, most of the soldiers are not familiar with water, so swimming is not advisable, and they can only attack by building pontoon bridges.

    "My lord, the ferry boats have been damaged. It will be difficult to build a pontoon bridge." A deputy general of the civilian army was full of embarrassment.

    "I'll give you one day, if you can't build a pontoon bridge, come and see me!"

    The eldest son Qin Lie, who was in a fit of anger, was only thinking of leading his troops across the river to take revenge, so he didn't listen to the explanation of his lieutenant at all.

    "Eldest son, we should also send cavalry to find shallow places to cross the river upstream and downstream."

    Seeing the embarrassment on the deputy general's face, the eldest son Qin Lie also got angry, and the staff in blue shirts stepped forward in time to make a rescue.

    "There is still a way, sir."

    After hearing what the staff said, Qin Lie also regained his composure, and his head was hot just now, but he didn't think of this.

    "What are you bastards doing here? Send someone to find shallow water!"

    Under Qin Lie's scolding, many teams of scouts were sent out to search for places suitable for the army to cross the river upstream and downstream.

    At the same time, Qin Lie's militia soldiers also sent thousands of people to the surrounding woods to cut wood in preparation for the construction of the pontoon bridge.

    "Report!"

    The scouts they sent out to find a suitable place to cross the river returned soon.

    "Have you found a shallow water area suitable for crossing the river?"

    Seeing the scouts leaving and returning so quickly, Qin Lie also seemed very excited. He couldn't wait to cross the river and fight the Qinghe army.

    "My lord, bandits, a large band of bandits is coming towards us from the north!"

    The scouts answered irrelevant questions, pointing to the north and panting heavily.

    "A large army of thieves?!"

    After hearing the report from the scouts, Qin Lie was also full of question marks.

    "Isn't the bandit army on the other side?"

    "My lord, I saw with my own eyes that there is indeed a large army of bandits coming towards us!" the scout repeated hastily.

    "Woo-ang¡ª¡ª"

    At this time, a desolate and majestic horn sounded from the north, resounding through the sky.

    When Qin Lie heard the sound of the horn, his expression changed. He hurriedly climbed up a small mound next to the camp with a group of generals, and set up an awning to look north.

    "Hiss!"

    When they saw the dark Qinghe Army troops pouring out from the forest in the north and appearing in their field of vision, Qin Lie and others took a deep breath.

    "I'm afraid there are five or six thousand bandits."

    "I think at least tens of thousands."

    The generals under Qin Lie's command also showed fear on their faces, and they began to guess the strength of the Qinghe Army one after another.

    Qin Lie's face sank when he saw Qinghe's large army appearing in the distance.

    "General Zhang, what's going on?"

    Qin Lie turned his head and asked a general in charge of the scout battalion coldly.

    After their troops arrived here last night, he sent a brigade of scouts to check the surroundings.

    However, the scout reported that there was no large Qinghe army around, but now there are not only Qinghe troops around, but also a large number of troops.

    Xu Yong, the vanguard officer of the 20th Corps of the People's Army, led his troops like a broken bamboo all the way, defeating the Qinghe Army.Into the army.

    Lien Chan and Lian Jie under Xu Yong also misled the rest of the civilian army, that is, the Qinghe Army's combat effectiveness was vulnerable.

    It was precisely because of this thought of underestimating the enemy that the scouts did not follow through on Qin Lie's orders at all.

    They only searched a radius of five or six miles before turning back to the camp. After all, they marched so fast all the way, and they also wanted to have a good sleep and rest.

    Moreover, the Qinghe army has been defeated by the vanguard officer Xu Yong. Now that they have tens of thousands of troops here, the Qinghe army will never dare to provoke them.

    "This this, Eldest Prince, please listen to my explanation."

    The general in charge of the scout battalion also sweated profusely on his brow when facing the knife-like gaze of the eldest son Qin Lie.

    Because they were misled by the vanguard officer Xu Yong, thinking that the Qinghe army had been beaten to Yunxi Mansion, so that they underestimated the enemy. Now so many Qinghe troops suddenly appeared around them, which caught them off guard.

    "You lied about the military situation, what crime should you deserve!" Qin Lie sternly shouted.

    "Plop¡ª"

    Facing Qin Lie's stern questioning, the general in charge of the scout battalion also had his legs go limp, and he knelt down on the ground with a plop.

    "Eldest Young Master, spare your life, Eldest Young Master, please give me a chance"

    Now that the army has just lost a battle, the morale of the army is fluctuating. When Qin Lie sees the general kneeling down and begging for mercy, he also feels quite resentful.

    "Pull it down, cut it off!"

    Although this general is his confidant, but now in order to stabilize the morale of the army, he must have a scapegoat.

    "My lord, please forgive me. I follow you without credit or hard work."

    When the staff officer heard that Qin Lie was going to kill him, his complexion turned pale and he shouted loudly.

    But Qin Lie was unmoved in the slightest, watching helplessly as his personal guards dragged the general down.

    "My lord, General Zhang Shen has been executed."

    Soon, the personal guards came to the front with a bloody head, and the surrounding generals were as quiet as cicadas, not daring to breathe.

    "He was in charge of the scout battalion, and the bandit army was close at hand but didn't notice it, causing five thousand of my brothers to die in battle. He deserved it!"

    Seeing the bloody head, Qin Lie loudly reprimanded the beheaded general for his crimes, and blamed him for the defeat.

    "The thieves are cunning, thinking that they can defeat us with a small victory, but they made a wrong calculation!"

    "We now have more than 50,000 elite soldiers and strong generals, and the bandit army is now coming to our door. What do you say, what should we do?!"

    Qin Lie is also one of the five tigers of the Qin family, although their defeat in the first battle just now has lowered their morale.

    He dealt with the general in charge of the scout battalion vigorously and decisively, and now, with a few words, he encouraged the low morale again.

    "My lord, the bandit army is not stable, and the last general is willing to lead the army to charge and destroy them!" A lieutenant immediately stood up with a murderous look.

    "The last general is also willing to play!" (Remember the website URL: www.hlnovel.com
