Daqin: Prince Peerless, guarding Hangu for ten years!

Chapter 337: Only attack, no retreat!

There was a fierce murderous look in Lian Po's eyes, and even the deputy general following him couldn't help but tremble with fear, and cold sweat broke out on his back. He had never seen Lian Po so furious.

But it's no wonder that now Qin's 50-strong army is out in force, and a war is imminent. Food, grass and baggage are extremely important to the army.

If the problem of food and clothing for the soldiers cannot be solved, it will inevitably affect the morale of the soldiers.

By then, how can we withstand the 50 Qin army?
The deputy general said quickly: "General, please calm down. The supervisor responsible for escorting the grain and grass this time is Chunping-kun. It is also Chunping-kun's decision to let the civilians stop and rest."

Chunping Lord Zhao Yan serves as the supervisor of the army, but this so-called army establishment is nothing more than an appointment by the court to control the transportation and supplies of the army, as well as the rewards and punishments of the generals.

In theory, he is one level lower than the general of the army, but in fact, even Lian Po, as a general, cannot directly issue orders to the supervisory army.

Compared with his previous status as Chunpei-kun, he was not promoted but demoted. This right was limited to the scope of reserve military supplies.

But in this, both sides exist to check and balance each other.

It is indeed Zhao Yi's unique right to manage the grain, grass and baggage teams.

It's just that... this is not delaying the military situation!
Lian Po sighed in his heart, thinking of Li Mu who had died in the battle at Hangu Pass not long ago, and he had probably guessed what was going on.

Zhao Wangyan and Zhao Yi were both sons of King Zhao Xiaocheng.

As the eldest son, Zhao Yan was also the most likely to become the future king of Zhao. However, King Zhao Xiaocheng died in the Battle of Handan, and many ministers in the court were bribed by Guo Kai.With the support of many ministers in the court, Zhao Wangyan finally successfully sat on the throne and took charge of the Zhao Kingdom.

The only person who supported Zhao Yi was Li Mu, who was in charge of the side cavalry and fought against the Huns all year round. Because of this, Zhao Wangyan gave Zhao Yi the title of Chunping Jun in order not to offend Li Mu, who was in charge of the side cavalry.

Now that Li Mu died in battle, no one in the court supported Zhao Yi, so he was naturally suppressed by King Zhao.

Those princes and noble sons who have been pampered and pampered since childhood, all regard human life as grass and grass and the people as dung. Even Chunping Lord Zhao Wei is the same. In the eyes of others, Zhao Wei has a pure and kind character, cares for the people, and thinks about the people. .

But isn't this his way of retaliating against Zhao Wangyan?
A big war will break out between Qin and Zhao soon. If there is not enough food, grass and baggage supplies, there will be no way to fight back against Qin's 50-strong army, and even the city can only be broken in an instant.

If the King of Zhao learns that Zhao Yi missed the opportunity to fight, blood will flow into rivers in an instant, corpses will be everywhere, and these people will also suffer.

In the midst of a national crisis, we are still obsessed with personal hatred!

How could such a country defeat the powerful Qin State?

Lian Po rubbed his forehead with some energy and haggardness, and couldn't help but think of the figure of another person.

It was Yingjun, the prince of Qin who also came from an imperial family.

Although they were both princes, such civil strife did not occur in Qin State, which was completely different from the situation in Zhao State.

At least he had been at war with Qin for decades, and he had never heard that Qin's internal affairs could ignore the safety of the country and its people in order to compete for a throne.

Although Yingjun is the prince of Qin, he is also highly admired and admired by Lian Po. His strong character and decisive ability to kill are also very rare talents for him since the war since Baiqi!

Over the years, Qin's strength has gradually grown, but it has never taken steps to move eastward, and its progress has been slow.

But since the appearance of Yingjun, the situation of Qin State has completely changed. Not only did it eradicate the alien races in the western grasslands, but it also repeatedly defeated the offensives of the armies of other countries, allowing Qin State to make a qualitative leap.

It’s enough to show how powerful Yingjun is!
but……

Everyone is their master!

If nothing unexpected happens, this battle will be the final decisive battle between Zhao and Qin, and also the last confrontation between him and Yingjun.

Thinking of this, Lian Po's face suddenly changed, he looked at the deputy general with extremely serious eyes, and said solemnly: "Except for the food, grass and baggage, how are our army's other supplies prepared?"

The lieutenant general immediately lowered his head and replied truthfully: "Senior General, except for the fact that the food and grass baggage being transported has not arrived, the catapults, arrows, rolling logs, stones and other materials are now ready!"

"In addition, all the troops mobilized from various places are already on their way. They will arrive in Shicheng in less than two days. Together with the troops in the city, the total is 20!"

Lian Po's face suddenly showed a hint of joy, and his eyes were full of expectation, and he said: "Okay! With the 20 troops in Shicheng, plus the 40 garrisons that can be mobilized in Julu and Langmeng, our Zhao country will have [-] Ten thousand troops." "Coupled with the common people who can fight, our Zhao and Qin countries can be considered powerful enough to fight!"

……

Two days later.

Ying Jun has arrived at Handan City with an army of 50 men.

According to the original plan, after the army arrived at Handan City, they began to march in three directions towards Langmeng, Shicheng and Julu.

At this time, it was fifty miles away from Langmeng City.

In the continuous Qin army camp.

A hurried figure quickly rushed towards the Chinese army commander's camp!

"Report..."

Li Cunxiao, who was standing in the commander's camp, was looking at the general map of Zhao Kingdom with his generals. Hearing this, Ji Baosheng quickly looked up, and many generals around him also turned around.

Soon, a messenger rushed into the camp!

"Report!"

"Report, General Zuo, the prince's secret order has arrived!"

Upon hearing this, Li Cunxiao hurriedly stepped forward and said to him: "Quick, quick, bring it up quickly!"

The messenger immediately handed over the bamboo tube in his hand.

Li Cunxiao immediately took the bamboo tube from the ordering soldier, opened the lid, poured out the bamboo slips from the inside, and previewed it carefully after opening it.

A moment later, Li Cunxiao raised the corner of his mouth slightly, a bright light flashed in his eyes, and murmured: "The armies from all walks of life have begun to take action, and are marching to various places according to the deployment of the lord. Soon, a full-scale war with Zhao will begin."

Then he suddenly raised his head and looked at the generals around him, with a solemn face and said: "Generals, our three armies of Qin State have moved!"

"And our army on the west route has only one purpose for this trip!"

"That is to break through Langmeng City and clear out all the cities to the west of Zhao Kingdom."

The generals standing around all felt awe-inspiring when they heard this!

During this march, they did not know the battle plan. It was not until they arrived here and prepared to attack Langmeng City that they learned something about it from Li Cunxiao.

Knowing that Qin State will launch a massive attack on Zhao State this time, I am afraid that it wants to destroy Zhao State!

However, they don't know how to act.

Even they were a little unsure at the moment. If they wanted to destroy Zhao State, how could it happen so suddenly?
We must know that Zhao State is powerful. Even Qin State sent 50 troops and failed to destroy Zhao State in one fell swoop. Even Bai Qi, the undefeated Lord of Wu'an, never captured Zhao State. Now, although Qin State has defeated Zhao State, For such a universal war god, it would be extremely difficult to destroy the Zhao Kingdom!

However, when the surrounding generals looked at Li Cunxiao's solemn and solemn expression, everyone knew very clearly that whether it was to destroy Zhao or not, this war was absolutely very important!
Seeing the extremely serious expressions on everyone's face, Li Cunxiao showed a hint of relief in his eyes, and then said in a solemn voice: "The army has rested for a day, and will march to attack Langmeng tomorrow!"

"Generals, from now on, our Qin army will only attack, not retreat!"

"Yes, General!"

All the generals cheered in response.

And when this scene happened in the army on the left!

Several other armies are also heading towards their respective destinations quickly!

(I misremembered it earlier, so I’ll correct it here. It’s Chunping Lord Zhao Yan, not Pingyuan Lord Zhao Sheng! Zhao Sheng is already dead in this timeline.)
