Back to Daqin to be Emperor

Chapter 447 Wu Guang's Head

After several times of refusal, the military minister immediately took the throne with half push and half.

At that time, the school lieutenant Zhang Er was named Prime Minister Zuo by military officials, and Chen Yu was named a general.

Such a result naturally satisfied the two of them, and it could be regarded as the reward given to them by the military minister's proclaiming the king.

And when the news reached Chen County, Chen Sheng's lungs were about to explode!

Even if the family members of Wuchen were to be executed, they were stopped immediately by Fang Jun, the prime minister appointed by Chen Sheng himself. After all, Wuchen was no longer what he used to be at this time, with tens of thousands of soldiers under him, occupying the land of Zhao State, and his power was overwhelming. It's not that big.

Doing so will only irritate the military minister.

Mr. Fang explained this truth, and Chen Sheng knew that he had to endure it.

The obstruction of the battle in Xingyang also made Chen Sheng quite unhappy. More importantly, Zhang Han's army had already marched eastward to approach Xingyang.

Under such circumstances, Chen Sheng received an unexpected gift - Wu Guang's head.

Zhang Han's soldiers headed straight towards Xingyang City, which naturally put great pressure on Wu Guang's army. Originally, in Wu Guang's plan, he first attacked Xingyang and then captured Aocang. There was an endless supply of food, grass and soldiers.

After all, the taxes collected by Qin State from all parts of Shandong are accumulated in Ao Cang, and the amount is not insignificant.

If you have such a wealth, then you don't have to worry about military expenses in the next four or five years.

However, Li You, the prefect of Sanchuan, was stationed in Xingyang like a nail. Xingyang had a high city and thick walls, so it was not easy to capture, and Li You was not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Wu Guang thought of many ways, but Li You saw through them all.

It's just that there is not enough power in Xingyang City, otherwise, Li You might take the opportunity to counterattack.

But right now, Li You can only rely on the strong city of Xingyang to defend.

As time went by, many people in Wu Guang's army couldn't help becoming impatient, especially some of the generals.

They are different from the big soldiers below. Maybe those soldiers don't know that a Qin army is approaching them, but their general is Men Qing'er.

In particular, the commander-in-chief of the army is Zhang Han. Perhaps the name Zhang Han was not well-known before, and he looks ordinary.

It's not like Meng Tian, ​​who has been on the battlefield for a long time and has become a famous commander.

However, Zhou Wen's hundreds of thousands of troops were annihilated in an instant, which already showed that Zhang Han, even though he was not as good as Meng Tian, ​​was by no means an easy character.

If Zhang Han led his army to Xingyang at that time, and Xingyang City was still unable to attack for a long time, the result would be predictable, and the rebels would have no chance of winning.

Among them, Tian Zang mentioned this matter several times. Tian Zang believed that Xingyang should be besieged with a small number of soldiers and horses, and then lead the main force of the army to fight Zhang Han to the death.

In this way, there is a chance of winning.

It's just that such a proposal was rejected by Wu Guang several times!
As a result, Tian Zang was unhappy, thinking that Wu Guang was deliberately suppressing himself, so Tian Zang simply turned his back on the brave, gathered a group of generals, and killed Wu Guang under the guise of King Chen's order.

Then he reported the matter to Chen Sheng, and Chen Sheng was naturally very unhappy when he received such information.

But the situation is like this, what can he do?After all, the hundreds of thousands of troops are now in the hands of Tian Zang.

If he insisted on upholding justice for Wu Guang, Tian Zang would lead these hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses to stand on his own in an instant.

The incident with Wu Chen was already disgusting enough for Chen Sheng, and he didn't want it to happen again with Tian Zang.

What's more, Tian Zang needs to be counted on to deal with the menacing Qin army.

Thinking of this, Chen Sheng naturally made a decision. Not only did he not blame Tian Zang for killing Wu Guang on the pretext of his order, but he sent Tian Zang the seal of Ling Yin of Chu, and canonized Tian Zang as a general.

The position of Ling Yin of Chu State is probably equivalent to the prime minister of Qin State. Even in a country like Chu State, Ling Yin holds more real power.

At the same time, coupled with the title of General, one can imagine what honor Tian Zang was awarded in this way.

Immediately, Tian Zang organized his army to prepare for war. According to the previous idea, only a small number of people were left to continue to besiege Xingyang, while the army sent troops to attack Zhang Han.

After the front-line scout reported Tian Zang's army information to Zhang Han, Zhang Han didn't have any worry on his face.

Regarding the combat power of the Qin army, Zhang Han knew very well that it was really not too difficult for the Qin army to defeat such a mob.

At best, it seems that there are more numbers, but wars are not based on numbers alone.

This point, the 500-year turbulent era of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States, fully proved this truth.

For example, in the battle of Changping, the number of Qin and Zhao armies was about the same, but in the end, it ended with the almost complete annihilation of the Zhao army. Even the few who fled were deliberately released by Bai Qi to disturb Handan popular.

In terms of military equipment, equipment, morale and training, the Qin army is far superior to the rebel army in front of it.

What Zhang Han was worried about was that when he heard the name of the Qin army, the rebels would choose to retreat. As a result, the supply line of the Qin army would inevitably be stretched, which would be very unfavorable for the Qin army.

If dozens of small teams are left behind, instead of directly confronting the main force of the Qin army, but only disrupting the supply of the Qin army, it will be a headache for Zhang Han.

Only this kind of head-on confrontation is what Zhang Han has always hoped for.

This means that if you only need to fight head-on, then the elimination of this rebel army is already expected.

And in Pengcheng, Xiang Liang also got the news that Zhou Wen's army was completely annihilated.

Xiang Liang stroked his beard lightly, with a sly look in his eyes.

Such a result, he had already expected, the strength of Qin State still exists, this point, Xiang Liang is very clear.

How can it be so easy to destroy Qin?
After all, the former Qin army was an invincible army in the world, the army of six countries, which country can stop the Qin army's advance?
I'm afraid that only the Zhao army led by Li Mu of the Zhao country can fight back and forth with the Qin army, and that relies on Li Mu's superb commanding skills.

After Li Mu's death, even if the six countries were tied together, they would not be a single enemy of the Qin army.

However, the only thing that surprised Xiang Liang was that Zhou Wen's army was completely wiped out!
With a count of 10 horses, Xiang Liang felt that even if there were hundreds of thousands of pigs, the Qin army should not wipe them out in such a short period of time.

And being able to achieve such a level, Xiang Liang couldn't help but think of Meng Tian, ​​and he was afraid that only Meng Tian made a move to achieve such an impressive record.
