"The king has a will, and Lian Po receives the edict!"

Across a Zhangshui, Meng Wu, Yang Duan and the generals gathered together, with a total of 100,000 troops, and on the north bank of Zhangshui, Zhao generals Lian Po and Zhao Mu also led 100,000 troops and confronted each other.

After counting on their fingers, they have been holding each other for more than a month, but there is still not much movement between them, on the contrary, General Huan Qi, who is in the place where Shangdang is staying, has already captured the three cities of Zhao State, which makes Meng Wu and the others envious.

Although the position of general in the army is already at the top, there are still many of the twenty-rank military meritorious lords of the Qin State in front of everyone, and no one wants to get the glory of the king.

It's a pity that Zhao Jianglian on the north shore has repeated his old skills, just like the Battle of Changping back then, and has never confronted the Qin soldiers.

However, just as the two Mengwu in the Qin army camp on the south bank continued to wait, in the Zhao State military camp on the north bank of Zhangshui, there was a sudden sound of edict, and several people dressed as palace slaves rode in and went straight to the Chinese army's shogunate tent.

There, Zhao General Lian Po and others stayed together, discussing the strategy against Qin, and suddenly heard the sound of the summons, everyone looked at each other, and they were all surprised, not knowing what the king was announcing at this time.

"The king has a will, and Lian Po receives the edict!"

After a few breaths, the palace slave holding the silk paper had already entered the military tent of the shogunate, standing at the front, looking at an old man in the lead, and the voice fell, in the entire military tent, only this person was the oldest, and he couldn't be wrong.

"General, ......?"

In the past, when there was a war, the king had an edict, which was not a good thing, especially when he was confronting the Qin army at this moment, the edict came down, if it was a reward, it would never be, if it was not a reward, it would be a disaster.

In an instant, the eyes automatically converged on the old man in heavy armor and white hair in the center of the military tent.

"Lian Po took the edict!"

One hand crossed out, stopping the faint chaos in the military tent, and the voice of the old man rose, stepped forward, and half-knelt and clasped his fists and saluted.

"General Li Mu, repeatedly Zhao general, meritorious service, widowed very much, the general should return to Handan as soon as possible, choose another auspicious day, worship as a general, and entrust the affairs of the army to Zhao Mu, the marquis of Julu."

The edict was not long, just a few breaths, and the palace slave who came out of Handan finished speaking, and handed the edict in his hand to Lian Po, while waiting on the side.

On this trip, it is necessary to bring General Lian Po back from Zhangshui, which is the king's strict order.

"Changing generals in battle is a taboo for soldiers."

In an instant, the entire shogunate military tent was angry again, and this kind of thing happened, when the battle of Changping was held, General Lian Po blocked the Qin State in Shangdang for two years, and as a result, he was recalled by the king and replaced by Zhao Kuo, and was defeated.

Today, the confrontation in Zhangshui, before the war started, the king recalled Lian Po again, which really shook the morale of the army very much, and compared with Mengwu and Yang Duanhe on the other side of Zhangshui, there are not many people in Zhao State who can resist now.

Lian Po is definitely one of them!

Although Julu Marquis Zhao Mu also has military exploits, but that is also a merit obtained from the attack on Yan State, compared to Qin State, it is not at the same level at all, and if he is replaced by Julu Marquis Zhao Mu, I am afraid that the Zhao army is in danger.

"Now that South Korea and Wei have agreed to send troops to help, they only need to wait for another month, and the three sides will encircle them, and they can defeat the Qin army in one fell swoop.

"At that time, the Qin army attacked, and we were not sure of victory!"

Another general said with anger on his face, in the past few months, General Lian Po has appeared in the army, and he can see the improvement of the momentum of the Zhao army, and they are also full of confidence in facing the Qin army.

But if General Lian Po leaves suddenly, the army's morale is unstable, and the Qin army attacks, how can there be victory or defeat?

"General Lian Po, the king is looking forward to seeing you in Handan."

In the face of the roar of the generals, the expressions of the palace slaves did not change, they had the edict in hand, so they were not afraid of everything, seeing that Lian Po, who had already received the edict, did not respond, and couldn't help but remind.

"The old man takes the edict!"

"You don't need to be like this, the old man has already sent a message to Han and Wei, everything has been arranged, just wait for Han and Wei to arrive, you can wipe out the Qin army in one fell swoop, it is the same with or without an old man."

"Since the king wants to see the old man, then the old man will go to Handan and his party, General Zhao Mu, everything is out of you!"

Although he is nearly eighty years old, his figure is still burly and strong, and under the half-length gray beard, a wisp of sadness on his wrinkled face is fleeting, and he never imagined that the king would summon himself to Handan at this time.

This move is definitely a divisive plan made by the Qin State, and it is generally the same as when the Battle of Changping was at the beginning, when Prince Jia invited him to return to the country, he vaguely thought that there would be today, but he didn't expect it to come so soon.

Heavily armoured, ignoring the palace slave in front of him, he turned to look at the people in the shogunate's military tent, and said in a deep voice, instantly silent, if everything is done according to the plan, Zhao Guo will not be defeated.

I was afraid that as soon as I left, the Qin army would attack across the Zhangshui in a big way, and under the damage to morale, everything would be worried, and that was not the result I wanted to see, so I walked to another middle-aged general in the military tent and bowed.

"General Lian Po, please rest assured, Zhao Muding lives up to expectations."

Julu Hou Zhao Mu is also a little dissatisfied in his heart, although the military power of this trip was taken away by Lian Po, but as long as he can win the battle, the credit is still his own, and now, under the good situation, although there is Lian Po's strategy, but his people in the army and not in the army, it is completely different.

The king's edict was issued, and it had to be like this.

"Ladies and gentlemen, even if the Qin army attacks, as long as it holds on for a month, with the help of Han and Wei, it will be a big victory."

Deeply facing Zhao Mu's head, Lian Po strode out of the military tent, leaving a voice of entrustment, if Zhao Kuo could also listen to himself in the past, why was Changping defeated, and 400,000 Zhao troops were killed.

Now, we can only hope for them.

******

"General, according to the report from the secret agent, an hour ago, an envoy from Handan of Zhao State entered the army, and Lian Po left!"

The Qin army garrison on the south bank of Zhangshui, 100,000 troops gathered on the riverbank, stretched for a long time, in the shogunate of the Chinese army, Meng Wuduan, who was wearing Cangyun armor, sat on the head, Yang Duanhe sat on one side, and his eyes converged on a lightly armed soldier under the tent.

"General Meng, it seems that Handan's plan has succeeded."

"Zhao General Lian Po has always been good at holding on to the battle, and now he has joined forces with Han Wei, it is quite unfavorable for us to continue to wait, and now Lian Po is leaving, it is a great opportunity!"

"When are we going to go?"

Lian Po's battle of perseverance was difficult to break even for Wu Anjun Bai Qi back then, and now there is Zhangshui to block it, and it is even more difficult to break it, but without Lian Po in charge, even if there is a plan to stay, it is also vain.

The same thing, in the hands of different people, has a completely different effect.

Yang Duanhe looked overjoyed, since he lobbied Chang'an Juncheng a few years ago, his status in the army has risen sharply, and now he is a former general, only one step away from the general, although it is difficult to cross, but he is also content.

Listening to the words of the spy, there was already an impulse to send troops immediately in his heart, just to exterminate the 100,000 Zhao army, he would definitely achieve great success, and the title could be further improved.

"According to the news from Xinzheng and Daliang, it will take a month for Han and Wei to act, and if they send troops at this moment, I am afraid that the morale of the Zhao army is still strong."

"From tomorrow, the secret agent will spread the word that Lian Po was recalled to Handan by King Zhao, and he met in the open, but in fact he was imprisoned, and the morale of the Zhao army was defeated, and after seven days, there will be another battle!"

General Meng Wu shook his head, it is not appropriate to send troops at this moment, even if you can win, you have to pay a great price, and at this time, every Qin army is precious.

Only to disturb the momentum of the Zhao army, seven days later, their morale was low, they could succeed in a battle, exterminate 100,000 Zhao troops, return triumphantly, deter the six countries of Shandong, and unify the world.

"Good!"

Yang Duanhe bowed.

The next morning, in the military camp of Zhao on the north bank of Zhangshui, there were sudden rumors about King Zhao's imprisonment of General Lian Po and his desire to kill General Lian Po.

When the news came, the 100,000-strong army shook, and the faces of the soldiers were full of disbelief.

First, I don't believe that King Zhao will recall General Lian Po when the war is in conflict, even the small soldiers know that this is a taboo for soldiers, but the successive kings of Zhao seem to have committed repeated offenses.

Second, for decades, in the face of the Qin State and Qin army, there have been many defeats, and if General Lian Po is in charge, they have no belief in winning at all, and now this belief does not exist, can they really win this battle?

Waiting for the Julu Marquis Zhao Mu to suppress this news, but he was already powerless, patrolling the barracks, looking at the soldiers with a very different aura from yesterday, his heart was worried.

Now the plan can only hold on, and wait for the arrival of the Han and Wei troops to besiege and kill the Qin army.

However, seven days later, the Qin army secretly crossed the river and attacked the Zhao army's grain and grass.

In an instant, the entire Zhao State military camp was in chaos, the worries and fears of the past seven days came true, the army was not formed, and the Qin army on the south bank of Zhangshui continued to pour in.

Killing overnight, the 100,000 Zhao troops stationed on the north bank of Zhangshui slaughtered nearly 70,000 and captured more than 10,000 prisoners, and the rest fled north in a hurry.

The first battle was successful, and the general Meng Wu, the former general Yang Duanhe, and the 100,000 Zhao troops were defeated in the land of Zhangshui in Pingyang.

The news came out in an instant, directly transmitted to the hands of Qin Wangzheng, who was wandering in the land of Puyang at this moment, reading it, suddenly happy, silent for several years, the first time to the east, you can exterminate nearly 100,000 Zhao troops, which can be a big victory.

"Hahaha, Zhao Gao, send someone to order General Mengwu, rectify the military, and collect the land of Pingyang, in addition, the results of the battle will be passed on to Xianyang, so that the national captain and the long history will discuss their merits and be rewarded on a certain day!"

As long as there is merit, Qin Wangzheng will never be stingy with rewards.

"Whoa."

"King, this is also the battle report that just came, and it is the battle report of General Huan Qi's battle against the party."

Shaofu ordered Zhao Gao to bow and take the order, but his expression and emotion did not seem to be as happy with himself as Qin Wangzheng saw, and strangely, Zhao Gao had already handed over the other volume of documents in his hand.

Compared with the document in Qin Wangzheng's hand at the moment, this document was stained with drops of blood, and thinking back to the shape of the messenger who had returned from the party just now, his heart was worried again.

"General Huan Qi's battle report?"

"I don't know how many cities the old general has captured this time?"

Qin Wangzheng stretched out his hand to take the bloody battle report, raised his eyebrows, and disagreed, there was no big enemy in the place where Shangdang was staying, and General Huan Qi's march had been very smooth, which was completely different from Mengwu and them.

In the past few months, he has captured five cities in a row, while smiling, he slowly opened the battle report in his hand, and the two soldiers came out, and there were great results, which was auspicious ......, and suddenly, Qin Wangzheng read the document with a stagnant expression.
