Chapter 1294 Bai Qi and Li Jing


    Chapter 1292: Bai Qi and Li Jing


    There were originally 10,000 main forces and 80,000 militias in Yinshan City, but with the fierce attack of the Yuan and Meng slave army without even enough casualties after the arrival, the losses of the troops on both sides were extremely serious.


    Among the Yuan Meng''s slave army, many of them were soldiers captured by Temujin from other tribes during the battle against the grasslands. In addition, they had the temptation to get rid of slaves, and the combat effectiveness of the slave army was no less than that of the regular army.


    Under the desperate defense of Li Jing and Yang Liulang, although they fought over the 50,000 Yuanmeng slave army, there were only one thousand main forces left in Yinshan City, and less than 40,000 militias were left.


    Although the militia''s combat effectiveness is getting stronger and stronger under the constant destruction, it still cannot replace the role of the main force. The militia is destined to be unable to defend the city even if it is large.


    Yinshan City, which has only one thousand main forces, seems to be struggling dyingly on the edge of the broken city, but with the entry of Bai Qi''s 25,000 elite troops, Yinshan City has become as solid as a rock again.


    "Governor Bai Qi, you came in time. If you came half a day late, this Yinshan City would really not be able to stand it..."


    Yang Liulang grabbed Bai Qi''s arm and was both excited and complaining. Although Bai Qi didn''t like men to touch him very much, he also knew that it was not easy for Yinshan City to persevere until now, so he let him tell him.


    Looking at the attitude of his head general, Li Jing covered his face with his face, as if he didn''t know Yang Liulang.


    Too embarrassing.


    On the way back to the city lord''s mansion, Bai Qi truly realized the difficulty of Yinshan City.


    The rocks and rolling wood in the city had actually been used up for a long time, so the house was demolished as the city guard supplies to seize the enemy, and this demolition was mostly half of the city.


    Nowadays, most of the areas in Yinshan City are bare and there is no building. People who don’t have houses can only build sheds and just sleep on the ground while they are alive.


    Bai Qi also discovered that all the people in Yinshan City, both men and women, were summoned by the government to engage in various manual labor, transport materials, or handicrafts, in short, no one was idle.


    Seeing that Bai Qi was staring at the people, Li Jing thought he had guessed his thoughts and said, "The Yinshan City can last until now, thanks to the 300,000 people in Yinshan City. It is precisely with the full support of the people that Yinshan City can persist until the governor arrives, otherwise he would have been defeated by Yuan Meng long ago."


    "Oh? I can''t see it."


    Li Jing was stunned when he heard this, while Bai Qi continued: "The people in the occupied areas are far more than 300,000, and the people in the city also support our army, but they still failed to defend the city.


    From this we can see that the key to defending Yinshan City is not the support of the people, but the person who can mobilize the people, but not such people are found in every city. ”


    Looking at Bai Qi''s admiring gaze, Li Jing smiled embarrassedly.


    To be honest, Li Jing was a little dissatisfied with the dialogue in his heart.


    Li Jing and Bai Qi were both from Jin army. Bai Qi came from Hei Bingtai, and Li Jing was a general of the Qin family. Logically speaking, Li Jing''s starting point was higher than Bai Qi, but Bai Qi was already the chief general of the Qin army, with a status second only to Qin Hao and higher than that of the military advisors. However, Li Jing was still serving as deputy general for Yang Liulang. Li Jing has studied Bai Qi''s style of leading troops. He admired Bai Qi very much, but he did not think he was worse than Bai Qi. He felt that Bai Qi was just much luckier than him. He followed the most suitable monarch at the best time and got the opportunity to display his talents. If he changed with Bai Qi, he might not be worse than Bai Qi.


    Li Jing respects his lord Qin Wen very much. Although Qin Wen is optimistic and wants to train him, there are many people who Qin Wen is optimistic and trained, and Li Jing is just one of them.


    Therefore, under the coolness of the severe dispersion of resources, the opportunities that Qin Wen can provide him are naturally not on the same level as the opportunities that Qin Hao provides to Bai Qi without any reservation.


    Even so, Li Jing seized every opportunity and was promoted to become a general little by little. This speed was already very fast in the Jin army.


    Of course, it is naturally incomparable to Bai Qi, who has become a famous general. After all, Bai Qi is a sign created by Qin Hao using most of the resources of the Qin army.


    Previously, Li Jing would occasionally feel sorry for Bai Qi in front of childhood sweethearts, but Bai Qi took the risk of personally restraining Murong Chui''s army of 200,000, which greatly improved Li Jing''s view of Bai Qi.


    Bai Qi is not only lucky, he is also a real man who is strong in his heart, dares to work hard and dares to sacrifice his life, and Li Jing likes the most are those who are constantly improving.


    After hearing Bai Qi''s words, Yang Liulang nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, it''s time for many times that I can''t hold on. It''s the time that Brother Yao resolved the crisis and was able to defend Yinshan City. Brother Yao will definitely make great contributions."


    Li Jing laughed humbly: "It''s a pity. It''s definitely not the credit of anyone who can persevere in Yinshan City. Everyone is indispensable. This is the result of everyone''s joint efforts."


    Bai Qi could see that Li Jing was not pretending, and said in his heart: This is a modest and cautious person. He will definitely become a pillar of the army in the future, and perhaps he can be compared with me.


    Why did Bai Qi dare to drag him into Yinshan City? You should know that if Yinshan City is lost, it will be a situation where everything will be lost.


    With the situation at that time, under Murong Chui''s strict defense, Bai Qi was not sure to enter Yinshan City. If the soldiers suffered too much casualties, it would be meaningless even if they came in, so he decided to take a gamble.


    Bai Qi bet that Murong Chui can distinguish priorities and will definitely go to save Zhenbei Pass, but his only concern is whether Yinshan City can last until that time, and the person who let Bai Qi make the decision was Li Jing.


    Bai Qi found that the Yinshan defense battle was really good, it was simply a textbook-style city defense template. Even if he came to defend the city in person, he might not be better than Li Jing.


    So, Bai Qi decided to take a gamble on Li Jing, and Li Jing did not disappoint him. Although Yinshan City was extremely difficult to defend, it finally held on.


    Bai Qi has met many potential generals, such as Huo Qubing, Xue Rengui, Yue Fei, etc. They all have great potential, but Li Jing is indeed the person with the greatest potential he has seen.


    People like Huo Qubing and Xue Rengui are extremely capable, but they also have more or less personality defects, such as: Yue Fei is upright, Huo Qubing is frivolous, Xue Rengui...


    These are just minor character flaws, but for those generals who are in charge of all their troops, they will become fatal weaknesses.


    But Bai Qi has not found any personality flaws in Li Jing at present, which is quite rare, so he dared to conclude that Li Jing''s future achievements will definitely be very high.
