In the next two days, the situation at Qixun Ridge will be ten times more bloody than in the previous few days.

Because everyone knew what this battle meant, Wei State fought desperately and Qi State fought desperately to stop it.

No one wants to take a step back.

At dusk on the second day, Ning Wanli stood on the last mountain and looked at the Wei army's camp from afar.

The mountain road winds and extends to the Wei army camp.

In this battle, the Wei army lost 90,000 yuan and the Qi army lost 110,000 yuan.

No one expected that Qi State's casualties would be greater than that of Wei State when they occupied favorable terrain in advance.

They also realized afterwards that the terrain advantages provided by Qixun Ridge are comparable to those of the city walls, but this is in general sense.

In the siege, the Beast Blood Legion mainly acts as the attribute of violently breaking the city, but in the mountains, their agile posture and long-lasting combat capabilities can be fully utilized, causing a devastating blow to the military armies of Qi.

Qi State was very angry.

But morale has not dropped.

But the most desperate thing is that even though morale has not declined, Qi State still cannot stop the Wei State's army.

tomorrow!

At most tomorrow, the Wei army will attack the last valley, and the road to Chu will be left with only a flat horse.

Yue Pengcheng walked over, his voice low and hoarse, as if he had been cut by the air cut from the battlefield like a knife.

"Your Majesty! I can't hold on anymore, give me medicine!"

When he said this, he, an eight-foot man, had the urge to cry.

Too tragic!

In less than ten days, nearly 200,000 people died on both sides. In other words, when the eyes were closed and opened, a living person turned into a corpse.

Even if Yue Pengcheng was a man who crawled out of a sea of ​​corpses and blood, he could not stand this kind of scene.

In the past six months, as the commander-in-chief, he has fought with He Dan countless times. The spiritual platform is always in a high-speed operation, and sometimes even needs to be maintained with pills.

There was no moment of slackness, and there were almost no mistakes.

The fight with He Dan made him feel refreshed, and also made him physically and mentally exhausted.

Because he never lags behind in decision-making, but the battle situation is difficult.

The difference in hard power is too big.

Not only him, but also all the Qi army soldiers.

The morale of the Qi army is still high now, but if it is not defended this time, it will have an extremely huge blow to morale. Then, facing the Chu-Wei coalition forces, it is possible to collapse thousands of miles away.

Ning Wanli's expression was a little bit muddy, and her eyes were filled with sadness.

As the emperor, she personally supervised the battle.

But due to strength issues, we cannot go to the battlefield to kill the enemy in person.

In order to boost morale, she would personally collect the bodies of the soldiers who died in Qi State every day.

This can indeed boost morale.

But she also suffered a lot of mental pressure.

These days, every time she closes her eyes, she will see corpses all over the mountains.

Each one is a flesh-and-blood lake, and each one has fatal injuries.

Neck, abdomen, eye sockets...

The torture of several days made her exhausted.

Next.

She will also send away the lives of 50,000 elite soldiers by herself.

Although the sacrificial 50,000 elites were far better than dragging them down.

But as the person who gave orders in person, she felt a faint sense of collapse.

Ning Wanli sighed inwardly, "Ci is not in charge of soldiers, is that what she said?"

She took a deep breath: "Distribute medicine! Distribute all the meat in the military rations to the brothers who were given the medicine, and take the medicine before the war tomorrow!"

Yue Pengcheng nodded heavily: "Yes!"

"I'll take a break! Military affairs, please help me take care of you!"

Ning Wanli said the last sentence and walked towards her tent.

Although his steps were still stable, he seemed to have lost his soul.

Yue Pengcheng looked at her back, watched her leave, and sighed deeply.

Now that this situation of trapping beasts has been done, the empress has done everything she can do.

If it weren't for her, the morale of Qi's army would have declined long ago.

Now it seems...

I can only bet.

It is betting that the Qi army can hold back the Wei army after having these 50,000 suicide squads.

As long as the Wei army can be blocked here for two months, the international situation will undergo earth-shaking changes. At that time, the Wei State was useless and everyone was willing to cooperate with the fish. At that time, the Chu-Wei coalition forces would be defeated without attacking.

But if you can't hold it up...

Qi State will face a real catastrophe.

But looking at the situation in the previous few days, the actual combat effectiveness of the Wei army is far above their expectations...

...

In the tent.

As soon as the curtain fell, Ning Wanli staggered and almost fell to the ground unsteadily.

She held the table and sat down tremblingly.

His hands trembled and covered his pale face, and his whole body felt as if he was exhausted.

She has really done her best in the affairs of Qi State.

But the crisis in Qi State is far from being able to reverse it by trying its best.

These days, she often thinks.

Who can revitalize the situation in Qi while taking the main battle route?

She thought about it all over the place.

Cao Meng can't do it!

Mi Tianji is not good!

The royal family in Jin State, which was busy with close relatives, was not good.

The one who is living a life of scattered life and waiting to die is even worse!

Maybe...it is only possible that Zhao Hao, who is lucky enough to win countless ministers who have made great achievements at the same time?

For a moment, she vaguely felt the so-called great fortune.

Could it be...

Is Qi really going to die this time?

Ning Wanli bit her lip, and the severe pain caused her to break free from her despair.

She took out a letter from her arms, which was written by Jiang Zhiyu to her, saying that the wasteland still has surplus land, enough to accommodate five million people. As long as she agrees, she can build a city there. As long as she pays taxes to the wasteland, she can retain independent administrative power.

Independent executive power?

Ning Wanli sneered and looked down on this trap-filled concept.

The current dilemma of Qi made her fully realize that as long as your army is not strong enough, no matter how rich the economy is, it is all fish on someone else's chopping board.

However, this independent executive has a lot of room for operation.

She hopes that Qi will win this time.

But at the same time, you must be prepared to lose.

With the current situation of Qi, it is impossible to defend the Chu-Wei coalition forces. If you insist on fighting, you will only drag down the entire Qi State.

However, if you shrink the defense line and strategically give up some cities, you can retain some fire according to the dangerous terrain in your territory. If you can transfer all the wealth of those abandoned cities, there may not be no possibility of a counterattack in the future.

The land provided by the deserted country can be exempted from tariffs and can completely hold the market of the deserted country.

Whether you are subject to restraint depends on the game in the future.

But at least this time point can help Qi Guo solve a big problem.
