Qu Xin and Ji Ji each led more than 20,000 people to the mountains near Baishi City. Qu Xin's Chu army was responsible for capturing Baishi Nancheng, where the main road was located, and Ji Ji's Korean army was responsible for capturing Baishi North City on the other side. They all advanced lightly according to Su Qin's previous arrangement. When they arrived at Baishi City, they first sent two teams of troops, dressed in the clothes of ordinary residents, and mixed into Baishi City.

The Qin army led by Gongsun Yan, who retreated from Shangguan City, was in Baishi City at this time. There were nearly 20,000 Qin soldiers in Baishi City, but these soldiers were very relaxed in their vigilance. Because there were nearly 50,000 or 60,000 main forces of the Qin army in front of them, and this was the rear. How could the vanguard troops of the Hezong Army appear here?

However, Su Qin's plan was to attack him in a bad situation. He expected that Gongsun Yan would not think carefully about the defense in Baishi City. Because in his opinion, there were still Jiaoyang in the Mianchi area, Mianchi and Baishi in hand, and all the Hezong Army was Shangguan City. Baishi City, which was deep in the rear, was unlikely to become the target of the Hezong Army's attack.

Moreover, even if the Hezong Army dares to penetrate deep into the rear of the Qin army, the Qin army stationed in Baishi City can quickly defeat the Hezong Army, which is far away, under the city.

They did not expect that Su Qin was using the strategy of replacing the pillars. He took advantage of the Qin army's slack mentality to let the Chu army and the Han army's vanguards enter the city, and then cooperated inside and outside, and in an instant he could capture Baishi City with lightning speed.

After Qu Xin sent the vanguard troops to Baishi City, they quickly occupied the two gates of Baishi City and then raised fireworks as their names. At this time, the Chu army and the Han army, hidden at the foot of the mountain, advanced together, taking the South City and the North City.

They all rushed into the city before the Qin army could react. When Gongsun Yan heard the news of the Hezong Army, he couldn't believe his ears. He shouted to the messenger: "What are you talking nonsense? Are those Hezong Army flying over with wings? I think it's some rumors about Korean residents who are confusing the public. Go and inquire about it again."

Gongsun Yan himself did not dare to neglect. He hurriedly put on his armor, rode his war horse, and led more than a thousand soldiers to the gate leading to Mianchi in the south city. Before he could reach the south gate, he met the Chu army led by Qu Xin.

The Chu army had more than 20,000 soldiers and many powerful troops. Four or five people besieged a Qin soldier. The Qin army retreated step by step. Seeing this, Gongsun Yan was so anxious that his hair stood up. He waved the flag in his hand and ordered the Qin soldiers loudly: "Don't retreat half a step, all of them are forward to resist the attacks of the children of the Hezong Army."

However, Gongsun Yan's voice was useless. The defeat was like a mountain of defeat. Moreover, the Qin army only responded to the battle between the cage and panic, so it was not the opponent of the fully prepared Chu army.

In less than half an hour, the Chu army had already attacked the corridor near the corridor in the center of the city. When Gongsun Yan saw that the situation was not good, he hurriedly passed through the corridor and evacuated to the northern city of Baishi City. However, when Gongsun Yan passed through the corridor and stepped into the streets of Beicheng, he was even more stunned. It turned out that the Korean army attacking Beicheng had rushed to the center of Beicheng under the leadership of Ji Ji.

Ji Ji is not unfamiliar with Gongsun Yan. Including the first time he followed the Korean Grand Marshal Xu Mu to rescue Shangguancheng, it was already the third time he had met Gongsun Yan.

Therefore, Ji Ji saw Gongsun Yan riding a war horse and hurried out of the corridor. He issued an order to the Korean soldiers: "The Qin general Gongsun Yan is in front of us. Let's capture him alive and avenge the dead and injured Koreans!"

When the Korean army was in full swing, they heard the order of the commander Ji Ji, so they followed the direction pointed by the order flag and rushed towards Gongsun Yanban like a tide.

Gongsun Yan originally thought that the North City was safe, but he didn't expect that the North City was also captured and the situation was even more dangerous. He knew that something was wrong, and in terms of the number of people, the Hezong Army took the absolute initiative. Gongsun Yan's heart was immediately cold and said to himself: "It's over, it seems that this Baishi City cannot be defended. I'd better retreat from here as soon as possible and go to Hangu Pass, the border city of Qin."

Gongsun Yan made up his mind to retreat, but he did not retreat easily. He waved the flag in his hand vigorously and shouted the order for the Qin army to withstand. However, he himself retreated step by step along the street, clearly trying to escape along the road.

How dare Gongsun Yan issue an order to retreat easily? He knew very well that once Baishi City was lost, it would mean that the road to the Qin army retreating to Hangu Pass on the border of Qin State was cut off in half. If Sima Chou had unfavorable combat in Mianchi or the food and grass were cut off, the main force of the Qin army would face the danger of annihilation of the entire army.

Gongsun Yan thought: "If I issue a retreat order at this moment, if the king holds the responsibility in the future, he will definitely settle the score with me first. I cannot bear this guilt. If I can't resist it, at most it will be a disadvantage in the war."

At the same time, Gongsun Yan, who was a surrendered general, had no choice but to think of his destination. He suffered many defeats. Not to mention the Battle of Anyi, the Battle of Mianchi was originally intended to redeem his sins, and the momentum was very good, so that he developed the confidence that the future prime minister of Qin would be his own.

However, the situation later took a sharp turn for the worse. First, he pursued the deserters led by Xu Mu from South Korea and was demoted by Sima Cuo. Then he was transferred to Shangguan City by Sima Cuo using the power of the main general. He was attacked by Ning Jun and was led by Ning Jun to the right coalition forces. When he retreated to Baishi City, Gongsun Yan was already feeling discouraged and disappointed.

He vaguely felt that his performance in the Battle of Mianchi was definitely not what Qin Jun Ying Si wanted to see. In addition, Sima Chou was stalking, Gongsun Yan felt that his prospects in Qin were no longer good. He even felt that Qin Jun Ying Si was unwilling to hold him accountable at this time, perhaps because the Battle of Mianchi was still in a stalemate and it was inconvenient to temporarily withdraw the general and interfere with the morale of the army.

Now that Gongsun Yan led the Qin army to retreat from Baishi City again, he felt that Qin Jun Ying Si would probably not bypass him easily. Gongsun Yan thought to himself: "I was originally a member of Wei. I have been fighting hard in Qin for many years, and I have always been bullied by Sima Cuo and other important officials of Qin. Why am I doing this? I'd better think about a way out in the future. Once I find that the situation is not good, I'll get out first."
