When people were in Qin, they ruled the world

Chapter 157 Breaking Through the War in Early Spring

In the early spring of the seventh year of Qin Wangzheng, the coldness of winter has not yet dissipated. On the land of Guanzhong, in villages and cities, countless young and middle-aged people left their families, and people from the same area gathered into teams of hundreds. , Thinking of the military camp near Xianyang.

During this process, small teams gradually gathered into teams of thousands of people, and slowly tens of thousands of people became troops. When they finally arrived at the military camp near Xianyang, they were already a colossal force of more than [-] people.

Not long ago, the five kingdoms of Chu, Zhao, Wei, Han, and Yan in Shandong formally declared war on Qin, and once again formed a military alliance with Yin Chunshen Jun Huang Xie, the commander of Chu State, and Wei Wuji, the Xinling Lord of Wei State, as the commander. of the Allied Forces.

Faced with such a situation, Qin State did not fluctuate up and down, but recruited soldiers and horses normally, silently preparing for the battle.

In Xianyang Palace, as the prelude to the war unfolded, while soldiers and horses were being mobilized outside the city, all the generals of the Qin Army gathered here.

Meng Ao, Wang Yi, Zhang Tang, Yang Duanhe... and Wang Jian, who was unknown before. Of course, the most surprising thing is a middle-aged man with a strange appearance. The person who shouldn't be here.

"At this time, the combined forces of the Allied Forces are about [-], and [-] soldiers from Zhao crossed the Taihang Mountains to attack Jinyang of Qin State, and [-] troops of Wei attacked East County of Qin State. In this way, [-] soldiers and horses attacked Hangu Pass of Qin State. In addition to the garrisons in various places, the Qin State can summon a maximum of [-] troops. That is to say, without considering Dongjun and Jinyang County, our Qin army is [-] against the [-] coalition forces of the five countries. "As the highest position listed, Meng Ao explained to everyone.

"Five hundred thousand? It's not too much." Hearing Meng Ao's explanation, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"However, this time, whether the main attack direction of the joint vertical coalition forces is Hangu Pass or not, we need to collect more military information before we can judge." Meng Ao continued.

"Could it be possible that the coalition forces can attack from other places? Back then, King Zhao Wuling had planned to detour the northern border and attack Xianyang of Qin State from Shangjun, but that was just the plan on the map." Yang Duan said. .

Qin State has a lot of experience in dealing with the coalition forces. It's nothing more than the coalition forces coming, but they can't get out of seclusion, and then wait for work and wait for an opportunity to counterattack.

This kind of war, in the past nearly a hundred years, Qin has experienced too many times.

The so-called joint vertical coalition forces, apart from blowing up Qi State, have never really taken advantage of Qin State.

"Every war is a new war, past experience can only be used for reference, not to rely on." Meng Ao said.

This can only be said by him to Yang Duanhe, if it is said by others, it may be another dispute.

"This time the coalition forces chose to attack in the spring, which is different from before." Yang Duanhe, who was about to say something, was stopped by Ying Zheng's words.

"Spring?" The eyes of everyone present couldn't help but focus.

It is the beginning of spring now, the cold air from winter has not completely dissipated, the weather is still not warm, but it is not a suitable time for combat.

"This time, the attack direction of the joint vertical coalition forces may change. The joint vertical coalition forces coming from the east may be just a bluff. Therefore, [-] troops, [-] will be transferred to the direction of Hangu Pass, and [-] will be left behind. Stationed in Xianyang, in case of emergency." Ying Zheng said.

Yingzheng had been looking forward to this war for a long time, how could he not be clear about the attack direction of the coalition forces.

In another memory, Puban, who entered the land of Guanzhong from Hedong, was the main attack direction of the joint vertical coalition forces.

However, Ying Zheng at this time is very clear that although that memory is important to him, it is not the basis for all actions.

If Yingzheng at this time deployed heavy troops in Puban because of another memory, it is very likely that Zhao Jun, who is the main force, will retreat.

And the deployment of troops in Puban will let the coalition forces know that Qin's deployment of troops at Hangu Pass is insufficient. At that time, Hangu Pass will become the main attack direction of the coalition forces.

The virtual and real changes in the way of war are inherently impermanent, so how could Ying Zheng regard it as inevitable because of a memory.

Therefore, Puban needs to send troops, but not too many. Only in this way can the coalition forces cross Puban and cross the river with confidence. Only in this way can Yingzheng have a chance to seriously injure and even wipe out the Hezong who crossed the river. coalition forces.

After all, Ying Zheng had prepared a big surprise for them. If not, Gong Shuqiu wouldn't be here at this time.

You know, he's just a man who makes weapons, not a man who wields them.

When Xianyang was raising and deploying troops, Xinzheng, South Korea, thousands of miles away, had already gathered [-] soldiers and horses.

On the Xinzheng City Tower, Han Wangan looked at the endless barracks outside the city, with an excited look on his face.

If there is such a heroic soldier alone, then... Han Wangan just felt dry and quickly stopped his imagination. At this time, he is not the only one on the tower, but also Xiangguo.

"With such a powerful army, Qin should not be able to stop it," Han Wang said.

"Hangu Pass cannot be broken by manpower, and the person who can break Hangu Pass is never an enemy, only the people of Qin State themselves." Zhang Kaidi was not so optimistic.

"But this time is different after all." Han Wang said.

"Your Majesty, what do you mean?" Zhang Kai was slightly taken aback, he heard something else from Han Wangan's words.

"Does Xiangguo know that there are few people in the military camp outside the city?" Han Wangan asked.

"[-]?" Zhang Kai asked with some uncertainty.

"That's only [-] in name, and the real strength is only [-]." Han Wang said.

"[-]? Could it be that the [-] Zhao Jun is not here?" Zhang Kaidi was shocked.

He had already thought of some possibility from Han Wangan's words.

"Xiangguo, only the kings and commanders of the five kingdoms know about this matter. I will tell you alone, and please don't tell others." King Han said.

"My lord, is there really another purpose for those [-] Zhao troops?" Zhang Kai asked uncertainly.

Among the seven kingdoms in the world, the Zhao army has the most cavalry, even the Qin state is far behind it, and the cavalry's ability to attack has been fully proved in the Qin army's attack on South Korea in the past few years.

Could it be that Zhao Jun also thought that the old tricks would not work again, and defeated Qin with Qin's methods?

"When the [-] 'army' attacks Hangu Pass, Qin State will definitely push all its troops to the front line of Hangu Pass. At that time, Zhao Jun will give Qin State a big surprise." Han Wang said .

"Is it like Xinzheng's big surprise back then?" Zhang Kai said in his heart.

He is not very optimistic about Zhao Jun's rush, because so far, it is Qin Jun who has really brought the cavalry's rush to the extreme. How could they be defeated by their own means.

It's just that the words can't be said openly.
