Qin Emperor Ziying

Chapter 506 Li Zuoche's Guess
After the disbandment of the coalition forces, Zhao's army can be said to be the first to return to its own country, because to a certain extent, this confrontation took place in Zhao's territory.

The monarchs and ministers of Zhao State naturally knew that once the coalition forces disbanded, Zhao State would directly face the attack of the Qin army. However, they had no choice but to recall the army. If the coalition forces were not disbanded, the Qin army would not need to attack at all. I am afraid that I will collapse myself.

This can be said to be a decision to drink poison to quench thirst. Withdrawing troops can still last for a while, but if they don't withdraw troops, it may be over at that time.

And if Zhao Jun is lucky enough to successfully resist Qin Jun as he did during the Warring States Period, then Zhao Guo's reputation among the nations will surely rise, and it might be impossible to compete for the position of the leader by then.

……

"Qin Army Military Report." With a high-pitched voice, everyone in Zhao Guochao Hall turned their heads and stared closely at the outside of the hall.

"What's the movement of the Qin army?" Zhao Wang Zhao Xie asked the messenger nervously in Zhao Guochao hall.

Facing the Qin army's overwhelming force, even though Zhao Xie had become a generation of kings, he was still a little sluggish. He was even a little timid before the Qin army. Answer, the scene when the earth is not working.

"Your Majesty, there is great news. The Qin army was arrogant, and only sent [-] troops to attack Zhao, and the leader of the army was also a young general with no experience in leading an army, named Han Xin.

It is said that he was just a halberd-wielding guard in our coalition army before, and he just surrendered to the Qin army a few days ago. "

The messenger reported excitedly to Zhao Wangxie and all the bigwigs in the court: "Han Xin did not go straight north to attack Zhao, but bypassed Taihangshe and went north to Jingxing, intending to go from the north to the east and attack our country."

After the messenger finished speaking, a series of soothing voices were heard in Zhao Guochao Hall. Qin Guo only sent 3 people to attack Zhao Guo, and Zhao Guo's current 20 army is more than enough to resist this force.

"Qin's army is so self-important that [-] Qin's troops dare to claim that they can take Zhao. I ask you to send troops into Jingxing to attack them." Zhao Xiang Chen Yu immediately said to Zhao Wangxie.

"All right, Gu and Xiangguo's [-] troops must defend against the enemy outside the gates of the country, and let Tyranny know that we, Zhao, also have great soldiers." Zhao Wangxie said with a big wave of his hand.

With only [-] Qin troops, such a small number made King Zhao suppress his fear of the Qin army, and ignited his fighting spirit to win the battle.

If the Qin army came with 30, I'm afraid Zhao Wangxie would be thinking about where to flee.

However, just when Zhao Guochaotang was full of confidence, an inappropriate voice came to mind at this moment.

"Your Majesty, this matter is very unreasonable, please discuss it with the King."

Zhao Wangxie turned his head and saw that Guangwu Lord Li Zuoche was speaking.

When he was first proclaimed King of Zhao, Li Zuoche went out to assist him. It can be said that he made great contributions when he pacified the Zhao land, and was named Guangwu Lord for his meritorious service.

The most crucial thing is that Li Zuoche's grandfather was Li Mu, the former Zhao Guojun God.

It was precisely because of the existence of Li Mu that Zhao Guo was able to survive the attack of Qiang Qin.

It can be said that Li Mu lived in Zhao Guo, and Li Mu died in Zhao Guo.

Now that he is on the throne, and the grandson of the military god comes out to assist him, in Zhao Xie's opinion, he will be able to protect himself and Zhao Guo to regain hegemony.

Li Zuoche's current status in Zhao State is second only to Chen Yu who has made great contributions in supporting him.

For Li Zuoche's words, Zhao Wangxie still believed very much.

"Huh? What does Mr. Guangwu think about this?" Zhao Wangxie asked Li Zuoche.

Zhao Wangxie's emphasis on Li Zuoche was naturally a threat to himself in Chen Yu's eyes. He saw Li Zuoche's threat to his status.

Looking at Li Zuoche who was lost in thought, Chen Yu couldn't help narrowing his eyes. "This child can't stay."

"May I ask a question or two?" Li Zuoche pointed to the messenger and said to Zhao Wangxie.

"There is nothing you can do." King Zhao said magnanimously.

"As you said, the Qin army attacked Zhao with only 3 people, has it ever been verified?" Li Zuoche asked with a frown.

"Guangwu Lord, I would like to guarantee that the Qin army will attack Zhao's army with [-] ears." The messenger swore: "I saw with my own eyes that [-] Qin troops detoured to the west, and then went straight north."

"Qin's army attacked Yan and attacked Han and Wei, but how many soldiers do you know?" Li Zuoche continued to ask.

"The Qin army has never concealed it. The Qin army used Yunzhong County to attack Yan with [-] troops, led by the general Zhang Han; when they attacked Han and Wei, they used [-] troops, and Li Xin led them." This messenger can be said to be more conscientious. The deployment of several troops in the army has been inquired clearly.

However, after hearing what the messenger said, not only Li Zuoche, but even someone like Zhao Wangxie who knew nothing about military affairs felt something was wrong.

Qin Jun wouldn't despise Zhao Guo so much.

The veteran Li Xin led an army of [-] to attack Han and Wei, and the general Zhang Han led an army of [-] to attack the weaker Yan State.

To the most powerful state of Zhao, only 3 people were sent, and a young boy who had never led a soldier was appointed as the commander.

This is obviously unreasonable.

"Is the Qin army going north to Jingxing without any concealment and moving very slowly?" At this moment, Li Zuoche suddenly asked.

Li Zuoche's voice immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Hearing Li Zuoche's inquiry, the messenger frowned, thought for a while and said, "The Qin army's march to the north is very noisy, and they only traveled more than ten miles a day."

"Has Lord Guangwu already made a plan?" Zhao Wangxie asked Li Zuoche.

Hearing King Zhao's question, Li Zuoche bowed to King Zhao Xie and said, "You generals should have already seen that it is absolutely impossible for the Qin army to just send 3 people to attack Zhao.

From the left car, I can see that the [-] Qin troops detected by our army should be just bait, and the real direction of the Qin army's dispatch of troops should be Taihangxing and Zhiguanxing, which have already been occupied by the Qin army. "

"Mr. Guangwu, is there any evidence for this statement?" It was Xiangguo Chen Yu who questioned Li Zuoche.

"Zuo Che's statement is based on three reasons: First, the 15 people who attacked Yan and the [-] people who attacked Han and Wei, and only [-] people in our country of Zhao, are unreasonable. Based on estimates from Han, Wei and Yan, the strength of the Qin army to attack Zhao should be ten thousand. More than [-] and less than [-], and this is also the upper limit of the Qin army's strength.

Second, the northward advance of the Qin army was very fanciful and slow, obviously because they were worried that our army's spies would not be able to detect it. Its purpose must be to lure our troops from the state of Zhao to the north, so as to leave the south empty.

Third, since it was determined that the Qin Army's northward army was used as a bait to lure Zhao's army northward, the purpose of the Qin Army's eastward advance was very clear. "

Speaking of this, Li Zuoche pointed at the brief map hanging, and continued: "Taihang Xing and Zheguan Xing must be the real passage for the main force of the Qin army to go east.

The Qin army bypassed Taihang and came out from here. Not only can it avoid the Great Wall defense line built by the first king of Zhao State in the south (in the end of the Warring States Period, Zhao State also built the Great Wall south of Handan in order to defend Qin State), and it can directly attack us. The hinterland of Zhao State. "

Taihangxing and Zhiguanxing had been captured by Zhang Han before, and Jiyuan was even used as a channel for the Qin army to transport grain when they confronted each other. At this time, Li Zuoche thought that if the Qin army attacked Zhao, they would definitely use these two channels. choose one.

"I'm guilty of the Qin army's treachery, and I hope the king will punish me." After Li Zuoche's analysis, Chen Yu knelt down to Zhao Wangxie with a plop, begging for punishment with tears in his eyes.

"What's wrong with Xiangguo? It's because Ziying is too treacherous. If there is no Lord Guangwu, we will be in danger of being prisoners of the Qin army." Zhao Wangxie waved his hand and said to Chen Yu.

"Decree, Xiangguo Chen Yu, Guangwu Lord Li Zuoche, each commanding [-] troops to deploy defenses at Taihang and Zhiguan." Zhao Wangxie ordered.
