Chapter 995

Meng Tian looked at the resoluteness of the emperor's words. As a subject, he really didn't want to stop so many people from disobeying the emperor, so he said immediately: "My subject, Meng Zhan, has learned the art of military formation since he was a child, so he can follow the emperor's footsteps in the army." Run and run!"

"Don't worry, I came here this time, but I brought a lot of people. Gao Shun's army is famous all over the world. There has never been a city that the tiger's army can't break through. What you need to be careful about now is the situation in Rongcheng. Once I send troops Attacking Zhao State from Dai County, Zhao State will definitely follow the ancient practice of besieging Wei and saving Zhao, and send troops to attack the capital, so your place will definitely become the frontier of Zhao State's offensive. Your place is the key to our victory, as long as you hold on For more than a month, there are armies of Yue Fei and Wu Qi in the west, Bai Qi in the east, and Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang in the south. Isn't it unreasonable that the country of Zhao should not be destroyed?"

"I must swear to defend Rongcheng to the death, and I will never notice that the enemy has stepped into Rongcheng!"

Fu Su said solemnly: "The land of Dukang has been a rich land since ancient times. There are rich families and a lot of food left over from the house. If you can't extend the flames of war, don't extend it; of course, things on the battlefield have always been said Not sure, I’m just here to tell you that if you start a war, you should naturally adapt to the situation, and I will give you such full strength.”

Meng Tian bowed and said: "I will definitely let down His Majesty's trust in my humble minister."

Fusu thought about the army commander and looked outside, an old man who was over seventy years old, but was in good spirits with a slight smile on his face, this person was Jiang Shang!
Which strategy Fusu said before, in fact, Jiang Shang walked this way to a large extent, and told Fusu.

That's why Fusu insisted on sending troops south from Daijun. In this way, he could avoid the Laishui defense line and directly enter the hinterland of Zhao State. I also found out that it was Lian Po.

This person, like Xu Da, was deeply acquainted with Zhu Yuanzhang's almonds, so he was entrusted with the important task of guarding the north of Zhao State to prevent the Qin army from going south from Daijun and directly attacking the deep hinterland of Zhao State.

As for how many troops Lian Bo has under his command, Fusu doesn't have accurate information yet, but he believes that he has [-] cavalry from the Hu people of Liaodong, [-] cavalry from the forbidden army, and [-] fully armed tiger troops. The best cavalry, attacking the city is absolutely unmatched.

Among the generals in the army, Fusu raised his head, Wang Bodang, Meng Zhan, etc., which one is not a general who can be alone?Coupled with the fact that people like Ji Dan and Jiang Shang are on the sidelines making suggestions, God will be defeated when he comes!
After waiting for two days, Gao Shun's Huben army finally arrived. Looking at the fierce and eager Huben army, Fusu's confidence rose again.

"set off!"

The Huben army rested for a day, the emperor waved his hand, and the army began to go northward along the official road, all the way to Daijun.

The movements on Qin's side were immediately reported to Xu Da by the scouts, and Xu Da immediately wrote a letter and sent it to Lianbo stationed in Qiongyuzhiqiu.

Zhao Guo basically imitated Qin Guo, and also had a general of the four towns. Lian Bo happened to be the general of Zhenbei, and there were [-] troops stationed in Qiongyu Hill under his command.

Going north from Fanyang City is much faster than Fusu's army detour.

Lian Po received Xu Da's letter first, and after reading it, his brows were frowned.

According to the letter, Qin State is all cavalry this time, and each knight has at least five horses to ride, and most of them are mares.

Many people may not know this, the strongest mobility of cavalry is not only that they run on four legs, but that their military supplies are completely useless.

During the march, if the soldiers were hungry, they would dismount from their horses and drink the mare's milk. So when Lian Po read the letter saying that everyone basically had five horses to ride, he already had a very bad feeling in his heart. premonition.

This also means that the [-] iron cavalry can rush back and forth in the deep hinterland of Zhao State at will, without any question of military rations.

Only the recovery... It's already a headache just thinking about it.

After the Qin State annexed the grassland, all the fine breeds of war horses in the northern grasslands were under the control of the Qin State, but it was the Dayue Clan. According to rumors, there were some bloody horses.

However, Dai County and Yanmen County are all under the control of Qin State, and there have always been large troops stationed there. As for the Qin people's own caravans can pass through, the caravans of other countries will kill you regardless of who you are!
This almost cruel method completely cut off the possibility of other countries establishing powerful cavalry.

There is a natural disadvantage in fighting infantry with cavalry. The only thing that can be useful is the city.

But Lian Bo, as a general of Zhao State, couldn't just watch Qin's cavalry walk by under his nose and not open the door to fight.

As long as the gate is opened to fight, Qin's iron cavalry will immediately rush into the gate.

For a moment, Lian Bo fell into a dilemma.

"Study ink, there will be a battle report to report to His Majesty the Emperor!" After thinking for a while, Lian Bo ordered his subordinates to start to study ink.

In the past, all countries had battles against nomadic names in the north. Lian Bo felt that it was still too late to mobilize artisans in the city to make them.

There are also some things that need to be reported to the Emperor Zhao, so this is why I studied ink.

Time passed day by day, and the army led by the emperor himself also arrived in Daixian, which was the county seat of Daijun.

The army only stayed for a day to rest, and then continued southward, crossing the Wuzhong Mountain, and then they could reach the Qiongyu Hill.

Whether it was the scouts from Zhao or Qin, they ran back and forth frantically across the land, and the clouds of war filled the sky.

Lian Bo felt that the terrain on Qiongyuzhiqiu was not very wide, and Qin was now a cavalry force, so they must be eager to fight.

After some consideration, he decided to place the decisive battle on the west side of Qiongyuzhiqiu, which the locals called Shenlie Mountain.

This can be regarded as the source of Laishui, and there are many swamps around it, which can just restrain the cavalry. As for whether it can lure most of the cavalry of Qin to come here, it depends on the individual's ability.

"Report to the general, our army found the traces of Qin's army two hundred miles to the north of Wuzhong Mountain!" A general hurried in and said loudly.

Lian Po raised his head and saw that this person was none other than Sima Ang who just came from the court some time ago.

"This matter is not urgent. I have a plan. General Sima will come and listen to it." Lian Po smiled slightly, and waved his hand to invite Sima Ang to come this time. Apart from reporting the military situation, he also wanted to discuss with Lian Po. After a countermeasure, Lian Bo opened his mouth, and Sima Ang folded his hands and knelt down to one side.

The habit of sitting on stools and chairs has really spread to the largest extent in the Qin state, and other vassal states have not fully implemented it, so Sima Yang kneels and sits on one side.
