Bad people in Qin Dynasty

Chapter 260

"Trouble!"

In the main camp of the Zhao State, after receiving the Wang Order from Handan, Lian Po looked extremely calm and realized that this battle would be difficult to fight, and it was also the situation he least wanted to see.

"General, the opponent only has an army of 20 people. We have an army of [-] people. Why should we be afraid of them?"

A general did not take the [-]-strong army seriously. They had already obtained intelligence that the [-]-strong army did not carry those kind of crossbows or chariot crossbows, but only war horses, which was nothing to worry about.

"It's not that simple. The opponent is likely to send out black dragons this time. We can't fight with them in the water. It's late winter now and the weather is very cold. Plus they have strong men who practice ice attribute skills. Qin Jun They will be able to land from any location, and we cannot stop them with such a long defense line."

Shaking his head slightly, Lian Po looked at the unfolded map.

Although there are many mountains in Zhao country, there are not no roads in the middle. If the Qin army wants to attack, there are currently nine routes, and they are all far apart. They can't divide their troops into nine.

And since the opponent has brought 20 war horses, they will definitely not stay in the city on the way, but go deep alone. This style of play is the most difficult to resist, especially when the opponent has strong mobility, it is even more difficult to defend against.

"The most important point is that this is a conspiracy. Regardless of whether we choose to stay behind or send troops to block the attack, the Qin army will have a way to deal with it, either by attacking our land in Hexi or by attacking Handan.

In addition, the wolf tribe also has to guard against the ambition of the barbarian wolves. As long as they see the opportunity, they will definitely attack.

Now the situation has reversed, and the initiative is no longer with us. "

Lian Po sighed, the last thing he wanted to face was this kind of opponent, it was too uncomfortable.

Moreover, the northwest wind is blowing now, which will make the Qin fleet go faster, and it will not take long to reach the north-south side of the Yellow River.

"so what should I do now?"

The generals in the Chinese army's tent looked at me and I looked at you, and they all understood the seriousness of what was going on.

It is very fatal to lose the opportunity and initiative on the battlefield, and the enemy will lead you by the nose.

"General Zhao, General Li, you will lead the Hu Dao Knight and the Wu Ling Knight respectively with one man and three horses to stand by here. After the Qin army comes ashore, go ahead and intercept according to the route they choose. Don't confront them head-on. You will destroy the bridges if you dare. , there are roads destroyed, the main purpose is to delay, waiting for the arrival of the main force of our army."

After thinking for a while, Lian Po ordered the most elite and fastest Hu Dao cavalry and Wuling knights to go and make arrangements to slow down the Qin army and buy them time.

"The last general takes orders!"

The two generals who were named stepped out to receive their orders and quickly walked out to prepare.

Immediately afterwards, Lian Po continued to order the layout, leaving [-] troops on this side of the Great Wall to guard against the wolves, while he led a [-] troops as the main force.

Fortunately, we had traded [-] war horses with the wolf tribe before. Although the soldiers could not be converted into cavalry immediately, it was not difficult to use them to travel on horseback, and it would be much faster than walking.

Of course, there were many detailed arrangements, all of which were aimed at the Qin army. He even spread the news to the Wei State, asking them to take action to reduce the pressure on them.

The [-] elite Qin troops not only put a lot of pressure on their Zhao country, but also put a lot of pressure on Wei.

The fleet led by Ying Zheng ignored the changes on Zhao's side and quickly moved down the river with the help of the northwest wind. At the same time, it gathered Zhao's ships parked at some ferries into the fleet to expand its size.

Firstly, it cuts off Zhao's channel to connect the two sides of the Taiwan Strait, and secondly, it prepares for the next attack on Wei's Daliang. The more ships, the better.

The Wei State had already received the news, and even before the Zhao State, Duke Nan of Chu stopped by to inform Lord Xinling when he came over.

"The Qin army's first target is indeed Zhao!"

Looking at the map in front of him, Lord Xinling said, "Sure enough."

"Let our people be prepared. Once the Qin army lands in Zhao State, we will scuttle the ships near Daliang City and notify South Korea to take action."

Without hesitation, he opened his mouth and gave instructions.

This was a plan that had been planned earlier. Even if Wei and Zhao alone could block the Qin army, their vitality would be severely damaged, not to mention that the battlefield was between Wei and Zhao. Therefore, South Korea must be brought in, at least to allow It swallowed up the [-] Qin troops stationed in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, especially the [-] golden fire cavalry there.

Their Wei Dynasty has no soldiers of Wei, and the Qin State cannot even think about it. Let the [-] troops and the golden fire cavalry be buried with the soldiers of Wei!

At the same time, the Chu State also got the news, and was even the first to get the news. After discussing with the officials, the King of Chu decisively ordered to send troops to Bashu.

The land of Bashu has always been a worry for him. It is located in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. With this, the Qin State has many offensive methods, and can even attack directly along the Yangtze River by boat.

Now that the main force of the Qin army has been contained in Wei and Zhao, Bashu must be empty, and it is impossible to lead the army to support.

This is their chance!
It's a pity that what the King of Chu didn't know was that someone had already been prepared for their plot to plot Bashu, and was even waiting for them to attack the land of Bashu.

"It's finally here."

In a mountain forest, Ying Qi read the information sent back, with a hint of fury on his face.

He did not go to Zhao State with Ying Zheng, but quietly led his army to detour from Qiang Di, just waiting for Qin State.

He led a small army, only 3 people, which were borrowed from Baiyue Hou Tianze.

Marquis Baiyue always had a grudge against Chu.

"Chu country!"

Tianze was wiping his bloody spear beside him. He had not forgotten how he had been targeted by the Chu State in those years, nor had he forgotten those Baiyue warriors who were killed by the Chu army on the city wall in the last Baiyue Battle.

He wanted the Chu State to repay this debt ten times and a hundred times, so after learning that the plan had begun, he quietly came over in the black bird.

"The Chu State has used 30 troops this time, which is the limit of what it can draw. As long as these 30 troops are destroyed, it will be difficult for the Chu State to recover in the next few decades."

Yingqi attaches great importance to this battle. Bashu is too close to the Chu State. They need to capture the entire western part of the Chu State and use the mountains here to form a new line of defense. Only in this way can they have enough strategic depth to prevent the Chu State from defeating the Chu State. You can reach the hinterland of Bashu in one fell swoop.

There will be a major core of their Qin State's future, and its importance is even higher than that of Xianyang. Sufficient security must be ensured.

"Bashu is really a treasure land,"

Tianze couldn't help but sigh at how powerful Bashu was. Three large iron mines had been found, and they were all adjacent to large coal mines. They were simply created for steelmaking.

Once the advantages here are developed, he cannot imagine how powerful Qin will be in the future.

"Are there enough troops in Bashu?"

Asked about another thing, this time they only brought [-] troops here for the sake of confidentiality.

There is no way, the Chu family is too deeply rooted in the Qin State, and it is no problem to deal with other countries, but once it confronts the Chu State, it will become a factor of instability.

So they could only send people over to set up an ambush and swallow up the invading Chu army.

But if you want to counterattack the Chu State, or even swallow up the western part of the Chu State, these 3 people alone are far from enough, and the Qin army must be the main force.

"At that time, we will transfer all the garrison troops from the Bashu land and integrate an army of [-]. It will not be a big problem to invade the west where there is no Chu army to guard it."

Ying Qi has already made preparations for this. As soon as he can swallow up Chu's 30 army, he will send an order for the defenders in each city to gather together and kill them along the Yangtze River.

"What should we do with the people there?"

He nodded and immediately asked another thing.

The Chu State is deeply rooted here, and the people's recognition is also very high. Those people who occupy the area will become a huge hidden danger.

"All move to the Western Regions."

His expression became indifferent. Yingqi would never be merciful to this. The people of Chu State cooperated well. If they dare to resist, they will be killed!

There was no way he would risk the lives of his own soldiers on the people of Chu, not to mention that the Bashu land was crucial and must be completely captured.

"In fact, the land in the south is also good, and the climate and environment are even better. There is even rice that can be harvested three times a year."

Turning to the exploration of the south, Ying Qi was very tempted by that side.

I didn't pay much attention to the south before, thinking it was a wild land, but when I sent people to investigate, I discovered that it also has huge advantages. It's not an exaggeration to say it's a treasure land. It's better than Bashu, and its area is incomparable. huge.

In addition, the land in the southwest is better, but unfortunately there is already a country there, which is not weak. To take over that land, you need at least 50 troops.

But that is a matter for the future. The focus now is to occupy this place, and then encourage the people in the country to have children and increase their population in Qin.In the past, it was impossible to expand because of the limited cultivated land, but now the land area has greatly increased. Both the western and southern regions are vast. Once the wasteland is cultivated, it can feed many people, and it will be no problem to double the population of Qin.

"Compared to the Six Kingdoms, those barbarians are indeed much easier to conquer."

Tianze deeply agrees that compared to the Six Kingdoms, which have many inheritances, the barbarians in those wild lands are much weaker. They even live based on tribes and do not even have regular armies.

"When those agricultural machines are mass-produced, more young men can be liberated from the farmland, and even women can control farming. In this way, the military strength can be further improved."

Thinking of those large iron mines found, the more I thought about it, the more beautiful it became.

The number of troops is limited by population and food, and the two are essentially connected.

The army itself is composed of young men, and this is precisely the important labor force for farming. Once farming is affected, food production will drop sharply, and the army will have no rations, which will cause big problems.

Nowadays, there are agricultural machinery that covers everything from planting to harvesting, which can infinitely improve a person's efficiency, and one family can manage a large area of ​​land.

"But the terrain here is indeed a pit. They have to build a super giant mechanism to bulldoze all the hills."

Then he thought about the terrain in the south, and Ying Qi felt his head hurt. If he wanted to farm on a large scale there, he would have to level all the mountains and hills. Otherwise, there would be no way to farm and it would be difficult to garrison.

"Then we need to get a bigger guy."

Tianze also went to see the machine under construction, and was shocked by that kind of creation, which can definitely break mountains and cut rivers in a true sense.

The mountains cannot be shaken, but the hills and hills are absolutely unstoppable.

Moreover, there are many rivers in the south, which can provide power with local hydropower, which is very suitable for actuating those giant mechanisms.

Not to mention the plans of Ying Qi and others in Bashu, the Qin fleet traveling in the Yellow River in the north finally chose a place to disembark, and headed straight for Handan without stopping.

It was still Tian Hao's original strategy in South Korea, arranging the vanguard army to open the road ahead and rebuild the bridges destroyed by the Zhao army.

Fortunately, there are countless trees around, and materials can be obtained locally, which does not have a great impact on the marching speed of the army at the rear.

Although Zhao Jun was helpless, there was nothing he could do.

They had all seen the equipment of the vanguard army. They were covered in steel armor and even their horses were protected by armor. It was of little use in melee combat or projectile bows and arrows.

Moreover, there are many masters arranged there. They lack strong ones who can fight against them, so rushing forward won't be of much use.

However, this is not over yet, because this is not the real vanguard. There is an army that sets off earlier and is more concealed.

"it's already over."

The embroiderer came and told her the information she had just obtained, with deep love in her eyes.

"How did they do it?"

Xuan Jian, who was standing on the top of the mountain and looking into the distance, asked, curious about Zhao Jun's methods.

"Just break some bridges and build some big rocks to block the roads."

Speaking of this embroiderer, I feel a little disdainful. She is too petty and is much worse than General Ji from South Korea.

"Then teach them what breaking the road means!"

Xuan Jian smiled coldly. He liked this kind of battle against the army very much. It was much more refreshing than the previous one-on-one battles.

"Go!"

Xiu Niang waved to the 1000 people behind her. This was the Xuanjia Army they had trained over the past year. Based on the initial few hundred people, their combat power was not bad and they were very suitable for fighting in complex terrain.

After receiving the order, the Xuanjia Army was divided into three, and 300 people went to the mountains and forests on both sides of the road in groups of two and took action. They pulled the grass ropes soaked in kerosene and ran quickly through the mountains and forests, specifically walking through the fallen leaves and dead grass. Many places.

This method saves more kerosene, and it can burn longer with the straw rope as the foundation. Although the flame will not be very big, it is enough as a primer.

The last 400 people cut down the trees on the spot, dragged them and piled them in the middle of the road. They also rolled a lot of boulders to mix them in, completely blocking the road. They also added a lot of hay and finally poured kerosene to ensure that they could All lit up in a short time.

That's right, their mission this time is to kill the two warrior legions of Zhao Guo's Hu Dao Cavalry and Wuling Knights.

Once these two legions are gone, Zhao's threat to them will be reduced to a lower level, and the road to Handan will be smoother.

At the same time, Yan Lingji and others who had been observing with telescopes at high altitude also quickly shot down the information with arrows and sent it to Ying Zheng.

"They're in!"

After reading the contents on the note, Ying Zheng shook it with all his strength and shattered it into pieces.

"They are used to fighting head-on wars."

Seeing that Hu Dao Cavalry and Wu Ling Knight entered the game so easily, Meng Tian couldn't help but sigh, feeling much less accomplished.

"Be alert tonight, we will kill them overnight and catch them off guard."

Looking at the sky, Ying Zheng felt murderous intent surging in his heart.

He had always remembered the humiliation Zhao had done to their mother and son in those years, especially the final murder. He had long vowed to repay him a hundredfold, and now was the time.

That's right, he was not feigning an attack this time, but really wanted to attack Handan. He had already sent people to secretly dig tunnels to prepare for the capture of Handan City.

And eating those two warrior legions was the first step, and they did not hesitate to burn mountains on a large scale.

"I slept all the way on the boat, so I'm already full."

Meng Tian was also gearing up. He had always regretted not participating in the last battle to kill the Wei warriors. Today he finally found a chance to confront the enemy's warrior army.

It's a pity that they are not leading the Golden Fire Cavalry, but the configuration here is not bad, or even better. After all, they are the powerful Iron Eagle Warriors.

Even if today's Iron Eagle warriors are not as powerful as the peak of Wu Anjun's era, they are still ahead of other warrior legions.

In particular, all the equipment of the Iron Eagle Warriors has been changed. Needless to say, the steel armor. The sword in his hand was made by Master Xu himself. They are all famous sword embryos, and their sharpness is not as sharp as the sword of the Yue Jia swordsman. Difference.

If equipment is taken into account, today's Iron Eagle warriors are more powerful than at their peak, even compared with the three thousand Yue Jia swordsmen of the Yue Kingdom.

"If there had been such armor back then, there would have been so many injuries."

In the team behind, Sima Jin was filled with emotion as he looked at the brand new equipment on the Iron Eagle Warriors.

In the Battle of Changping back then, the world only knew that they had killed Zhao prisoners, but they didn't know that Qin also suffered heavy losses.

In particular, less than 1000 Iron Eagle Regiers, as the main battle force, remained intact after the war, and the entire organization was almost wiped out.

This shows how brutal that battle was. Although today's Iron Eagle warriors are inferior to the group led by the Lord in terms of personal strength and psychological quality, their weapons and equipment are better. If they really want to fight, they will only be afraid of them. I can hit half a dozen.

"We are making progress, but unfortunately the enemy has not made much progress."

Bai Qi himself was a little disappointed. With such good equipment, he would not feel any sense of accomplishment if he defeated Lian Po.

"We also need to train a women's army for the young lady. That girl almost cried with envy when she saw the queen and Princess Huayu's two women's armies."

Speaking of one thing, Sima Jin felt that it was necessary to strengthen his young lady. She could not be worse than other women, otherwise she would suffer.

I heard that those girls are planning this matter, and even Yan Lingji's carefree little girl has gone to Baiyue to recruit people. I believe that she will become the commander-in-chief of the army soon, and she will also be in the air force.

"Look for the families of those soldiers who died following me."

After a moment of silence, Bai Qi also felt that it was necessary to strengthen his silly girl.

At the same time, he also wanted to take this opportunity to compensate the families of those soldiers, especially the soldiers who died following him in the battle. It was such a pity that he had caused those children to suffer.

"I'll make arrangements when I get back."

With a solemn look on his face, Sima Jin also had the same idea. This is the only thing the living people can do for their comrades.
