Chapter 562
To the west of the Yellow River, the camp of the Qin Army.

Because of the shift of Qin State's strategic focus, the troops under Wang Jian's command decreased by [-]%, and several rising young generals were also seconded out, because his task for the next period of time was not to fight directly, but to give to the opposing Allied Forces of the Four Nations. While under pressure, cooperate with the net to disintegrate the opponent from the inside.

This requirement is quite a test of the level of the general.

When the pressure is increased, not only will you feel exhausted, but the other party will temporarily put aside disputes and become more united, driven by a strong sense of crisis.

But if the pressure is too small and the opponent completes the integration easily, it will be a big failure.

Only when the enemy is properly anxious, but there is no imminent crisis, can the enemy start to think wildly, mess up their positions, and give the net an opportunity to take advantage of.

Therefore, Wang Jian needs to have a good talk with Zhao Gao, who is in charge of Luowang, about the speed here, and how much pressure is there to make Luowang operate smoothly behind the enemy lines.

Since Zhao Gao was expelled from the center of the net, he could only temporarily suppress other small thoughts, and honestly followed Wang Jian to assist him, hoping to make a contribution and be recalled by the King of Qin.

And the series of changes in Yan State and Zhao State that followed made him feel as if he had been helped by a god. Although the trap failed to play a decisive role in it, Wang Jian was fighting for his strength!Taking advantage of the internal instability of the joint vertical coalition forces, he took back most of the lost Hexi land in one breath, and pushed the battle line from Hangu Pass to the bank of the Yellow River in one fell swoop.

In this process, Luo Wang has hard work without credit, right?

So Zhao Gao followed Wang Jian with more peace of mind, looking forward to the day when he would go back and be rewarded for his meritorious deeds.

The development of the next thing was also very smooth, because of the joint forces of the four countries of Yan, Zhao, Han and Wei, Wang Jian on the northern line and Meng Wu on the central line also joined forces, facing each other across the river.

Although Wang Jian's official title has not changed, his authority has been increased by half a level, and he is in charge of all Qin's military affairs in the eastern theater.

And this time, Zhao Gao's long-awaited performance opportunity finally came.

"Commander Zhao,"

Wang Jian stroked his beard, "You have also read the will of the king, do you have any ideas? Where do you plan to start?"

Although Zhao Gao was excited in his heart, he did have a confident expression on his face: "Yan Guo!"

"Oh?"

Wang Jian made a sound of questioning.

"Now on the opposite side of the Yellow River is the coalition of the four countries of Yan, Zhao, Han, and Wei. However, the three countries of Yan, Zhao, and Han came from Jin. Although there are frictions between them, how can they be compared with outsiders like Yan? Presumably they will feel it when they stay in the barracks. Get out of place!"

Zhao Gao's voice was cold and smooth, like a poisonous snake circling and spit out letters.

"The most important thing is that the Yan Kingdom was unwilling to send troops. It was forced by Zhao Guo to send troops to compromise. They are now equivalent to the servants of the other three countries. They must have accumulated deep resentment. They only need one detonation. A chance. And I will give them this chance!"

"Since Commander Zhao has already made plans, I can rest assured."

Wang Jian nodded and approved Zhao Gao's analysis, "Then from tomorrow onwards, it will be..."

Before he finished speaking, suddenly a messenger anxiously reported from outside: "General, the enemy is attacking!"

"what?!"

Wang Jian and Zhao Gao were startled at the same time, and their sharp gazes turned to the messenger at the same time, "What's going on, please tell me in detail!"

"General, General!"

The messenger took a breath, and hurriedly replied, "The cavalry of Zhao State are coming! General Meng is organizing defense."

"When did they cross the river? Why didn't the outpost stationed on the bank warn in time?"

Although the number of troops under his command decreased and the strategy changed, Wang Jian did not relax his vigilance. He set up guard posts along the Yellow River very prudently, and set off fireworks as a warning in case of any situation.

But judging from the current results, it is clear that the guard post by the river failed to notify the rear in time, which caused Meng Wu to rush to meet the enemy, which made the messenger behave so embarrassed.

But now is not the time to pursue these matters. Now that Zhao's cavalry has already arrived, it is obvious that the frontline sentries have been removed.

"Pass down the order, strictly guard the camp, meet the enemy with arrows, don't panic, and don't attack without authorization!"

Wang Jian deeply understood that the biggest threat to the battalion being attacked at night was not from the enemy army. After all, even if Zhao's cavalry could cross the river, it would not be on such a large scale.The most frightening thing is that Qin Jun, who was half asleep and half awake, couldn't figure out the situation. Because of panic, he ran around in the camp, trampled on each other, and spread rumors, which caused the camp to scream.

Or they rushed out and hit local traps when their vision was poor at night, and were even transferred from the mountain to their lair.

That's the real big trouble!
So he immediately issued an order to let the battalions guard their own garrisons, not to move indiscriminately, but to drive away the enemies outside with bows and arrows.He didn't believe that Zhao's cavalry could really shoot over with bows and crossbows to step on the Qin camp.

After all, although Zhao's cavalry dominates the world, they are not heavy cavalry, and their ability to attack fortifications is just that.

If the cavalry of Zhao State were really so strong, they would not have taken so much territory from Qin State.

This order was issued in a timely manner, and the effect was very obvious.

Faced with the already great psychological advantage of the soldiers of the Six Kingdoms, the Qin army would not panic easily under normal circumstances. In addition, with Wang Jian's general order, each of them put on their armor and carried out their swords and slashed their crossbows with peace of mind. The chaos was quickly smoothed out.

The movements of the Qin army camp caught the eyes of Li Mu who was leading the troops outside, and he couldn't help sighing: "It's a pity..."

As a famous general, his judgment on the situation is also very precise.

Although it is said that with the cooperation of the unique arms of Zhao, Wei and Han, they were allowed to complete the smuggling raid this time.

But it is impossible to really cause much damage to the Qin army with just such a small number of people, and the battalion roar he wanted to cause was easily suppressed by Wang Jian's general order.

"General, what shall we do next?"

His deputy Sima Shang asked.

"Wang Jian is cautious, he shouldn't rashly send troops to face us, and choose to shoot at us with bows and crossbows..."

Li Mu shook his head, annoyed and admired by General Qin who had been against him for more than a year, "Then let them see who is the country with the best bow and crossbow!"

The bows and crossbows made in South Korea have always been recognized as the crown of the Seven Kingdoms. Relying on this, they also formed a powerful bow and crossbow regiment called the Brake Crossbowmen.

This time, they were the ones who killed the outpost of the Qin army ahead of time during the river crossing.

The brake crossbowmen have a killing range of up to [-] steps, and the soldiers use their feet to wind the bow, and can shoot a hundred times in a row.

What kind of concept is this, they can use bows and crossbows to wash the ground from eight or nine hundred meters away!
In the past, because South Korea's comprehensive military strength was too weak, even if there was such an ultra-long-range lethal force, it could only be used to defend the city.Because the crossbowmen have no melee ability, the cavalry can reach the distance of eight or nine hundred meters in one charge.

But now it's different.

With the full cooperation of the three Jins, there are soldiers from Wei in the front lined up for protection, and Zhao Guo's elite side riders are constantly cruising around, which can be said to be full of safety.

Under such circumstances, the Korean brake crossbowmen, who have been silent for many years, can finally show their edge again.
