Tian Ji and Zhao Yong reached a secret agreement, Qi State delivered grain and grass to Zhao State, and Qi State obtained Zhao's five cities of steel city.

There was a great battle between Wei and Zhao in Pingyang, and in the end, Zhao won the war by virtue of its geographical familiarity, and although he won the war, Zhao's losses were twice as large as Wei's.

Although the Wei attack failed, their losses were not large, and they could launch a second attack at any time, and King Wei Hui was not afraid of a war of attrition, and he felt that with the national strength of Wei, he could crush Zhao State.

And after Wei and Zhao launched a big war, all countries paid attention to this war, and Zhao won, then Wei fell to the hegemon, and there was no one who sent charcoal in the snow, but there will be no less people who fall into the well.

And if Wei wins, then all countries will definitely send troops to help Zhao, the current Wei State is already so strong, who can still stop the Wei State that has annexed Zhao State?

The current state of Chu is no longer the super-hegemon of the past, but a country with strong national strength and belonging to the first echelon of vassal states.

So all countries paid attention to this war, and after Wei lost this war, Wei's envoys went to Qi.

"Duke Huan, King Wei hopes that you will fulfill your agreement now and send troops to Zhao State!" The envoy to Qi was an outstanding general of Wei, 'Le Yang'.

Qi Xiaobai looked at Le Yang: "I have been preparing for the army, preparing to attack Zhao!" ”

"Duke Huan, when will you send troops?" Le Yang looked at Qi Xiaobai and asked.

"A month later, when I have prepared the grain and grass, I will fight with the Wei State to destroy the Zhao State!" Qi Xiaobai said to Le Yang.

Le Yang looked at Qi Xiaobai with direct eyes: "I hope that Duke Huan will not lose his trust, otherwise my Wei State will never let go of Qi State!" ”

After Qi Xiaobai heard Le Yang's threatening words, his eyes narrowed into a line and looked at Le Yang: "Are you threatening me?" ”

Le Yang trembled, he suddenly felt that what he said seemed to be wrong, if because of his words, the Qi Wei alliance collapsed, it would be miserable, and he also became a sinner of the Wei State.

Wei still has to rely on the strength of Qi now, if he turns his face at this time and gets Qi into the camp of Zhao State, then he Wei State will be miserable.

"No, no, I just want to say that my Wei State will strike at countries that do not keep their promises, after all, a country without trust, the world is not ashamed!" Le Yang said to Qi Xiaobai.

"The most shameful thing about my Qi Xiaobai is that he is untrustworthy, you can rest assured!" Qi Xiaobai said to Le Yang.

Then Qi Xiaobai simply set up a banquet to entertain Xia Le Yang, and Le Yang left, and a month later, Qi Xiaobai asked Qi Jiu to enter the steel city of Zhao State to take over the steel city.

And Zhao was also very cooperative, they symbolically resisted and withdrew, the alliance between Qi and Zhao was actually carried out secretly, and the two countries were still hostile on the surface.

And Qi also fulfilled the covenant very credited, and sent the first supplies to the front line of Zhao State.

After Li Mu got the supplies: "I didn't expect this Qi country to talk about some credit, I thought it would only be treacherous." ”

Li Mu and other famous generals of Zhao State did not like Qi Country very much, and felt that this was a barbarian country without faith.

"Qi State will definitely not let Wei State become bigger, their strategy is to use us to weaken Wei, and then weaken us, their plan is vicious!" The veteran Lian Po saw Qi Guo's strategy at a glance.

But seeing it, what can he do? Wei wants to fight Zhao, and he can only take Zhao to resist.

This is the helplessness of people who see Yangmou, knowing that this is a strategy, but they have to go inside.

Lian Po looked at Li Mu and said: "General Li, let's just hold here for a while, and when the winter is over, we will retreat to Handan, defend Handan, and rely on Handan's fortress to defend Wei!" ”

Handan was the capital of Zhao, but Zhao knew that when the Wei army entered Zhao, Zhao Yong moved the capital, and he moved the capital to the center of Zhao, sat in the center of Zhao, and commanded the whole country to fight against Wei.

If Wei wants to break through the new capital of Zhao, it must pass through Handan, and Handan was once the capital of Zhao, the city is very strong, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there are many fortifications.

However, this was a hole card of the Zhao army, and they didn't want to use it here, so they fought against Wei in Pingyang.

After all, Zhao also wanted to fight a quick battle, and after defeating Wei in Pingyang, Wei obediently withdrew.

But Wei was fully prepared for aggression, how could it be that he retreated because of a defeat?

After all, this defeat, although it did not break through Pingyang, caused heavy losses to Zhao State.

Zhao's army was a huge cavalry, and they were suitable for the grassland, and the battle of Pingyang and defending the city was not the advantage of the Zhao army.

In fact, Li Mu's suggestion is to go out of the customs and fight to the death with the Wei State, and the first battle will be decided, Li Mu is very confident in the cavalry of the Zhao State, and he will not lose to the Wei State in the field battle.

However, Lian Po was afraid of a big defeat in the First World War and the defeat of Zhao Guo's family, so he was very opposed to Li Mu's suggestion.

This kind of important war, although Li Mu is in command, but he can't be arbitrary, of course, Li Mu, as the commander-in-chief, directly wanted to veto Lian Po's attention and go out directly to fight a decisive battle, but Lian Po told Zhao Yong Li Mu's thoughts.

Zhao Yong didn't dare to gamble, so he asked Li Mu to be the battle to defend the city, and Li Mu could only pull the cavalry to defend the city.

After all, military orders cannot be violated, in Lian Po's view, they have obtained the materials of Qi State, and they can rely on the military fortifications of the city, and with geographical advantages, they can fight defensive battles and keep guarding the city.

If it was before, Zhao State lacked materials, and Zhao State did not dare to fight a defensive war, but now with the assistance of Qi State, Lian Pojue relied on materials and defended Wei State is the best policy.

However, Li Mu felt that if he wanted to win, he could only attack, and there was only a dead end to defend all the time......

Although Li Mu is in charge, there is Zhao Yong behind Lian Po, and he can only accept Lian Po's suggestion.

In fact, Li Mu has also written a lot of excerpts these days, giving Zhao Yong the disadvantages of defense, and Zhao Guo has an advantage in attacking and can give full play to the advantages of the troops.

But Zhao Yong's concept is the same as Lian Po, if there were no materials before, it would definitely be an attack, but now that there are materials, it should be easy to wait.

Although Lian Po advocates defense, but Lian Po is a famous general, there is still a set of defense, he strengthens the fortifications on a large scale, of course, he is not a simple defense, from time to time he will harass the enemy, trying to make the enemy's army heart collapse, and then break it with one blow.

But Li Mujue's way, relying on this method, could not let the opponent's army heart collapse at all, on the contrary, his side has been defending to the death, and the enemy army in front of the city is black, and the army spirit on his side is very likely to collapse.

Li Mu looked at Lian Po without giving up: "General Lian Po, I think, we should lead the cavalry to attack!" Defeat them, and then we enter the Wei State, and with the materials of the Qi State, it is not impossible to win the Wei State. ”
