Chapter 957: It's Better to Fight with the Zhao People (First Update)

"What is the king doing?" When he learned of Qin Wang Chu's order, Cai Ze was shocked.

No one knows better than Cai Ze how critical and rare the current situation is, although Lü Buwei has been trying his best to resist Cai Ze's offensive, but Cai Ze thinks that he has already laid out the situation, and he is still the kind of person who is in a camp step by step, and may completely overwhelm Lü Buwei and his henchmen at any time.

But Qin Wang Chu's warrant directly released several of Lü Buwei's henchmen who were imprisoned in prison by Cai Ze, which will undoubtedly give everyone a very strong hint that Lü Buwei's catastrophe has passed.

As soon as that feeling arises, everything changes.

Some departments that were originally very obedient to greetings suddenly ignored Cai Ze's greetings.

Some of the subordinates who were originally very hard-working suddenly seemed to become less hard-working again.

The officials who were originally smiling and flattering Cai Ze seemed to have suddenly become unwilling to bend their waists and become powerful.

With just one command, everything was turned upside down.

The net that Cai Ze had spent several months crocheting was now suddenly full of holes.

This is the power of kingship on high.

This undoubtedly made Cai Ze very, very depressed.

So the next day, Cai Ze also entered the palace alone to ask for a meeting.

After very earnestly stating the necessity of continuing the investigation, Cai Ze received the following answer from Qin Wang Chu: "Gang Chengjun, now that the Great Qin State is in trouble, you don't have to think about these party disputes. Let's focus on the people of Zhao Guo first, and work together with Wu Chengjun to help the widow and Daqin survive this catastrophe together. ”

When he said this, Qin Wang Chu's tone was very gloomy.

And when Cai Ze heard this, he had a very ridiculous feeling in his heart.

Because if Lü Buwei is really a spy of Zhao State, then now that Qin Wang Chu has asked Lü Buwei to come back, isn't this helping Zhao State?

But Cai Ze didn't say this sentence in the end.

That's the way it is, whether Cai Ze is willing or unwilling to admit it, the time to completely pull Lu Buwei off the horse this time has passed.

If he wants to remove Lü Buwei from power, then Cai Ze must wait for the next opportunity to come.

So Cai Ze could only say goodbye with a melancholy mood, and then left Xianyang Palace.

But when leaving, Cai Ze also secretly made an oath in his heart.

"Lü Buwei, this matter ...... It doesn't end there! ”

……

Regardless of whether Qin Wangchu is mediocre or not, whether he has made a wrong judgment on this matter, there is one thing that Qin Wangchu said is indeed not wrong, that is, the current Great Qin is indeed facing a very difficult situation.

In the front line of the Qin army camp in Hexi, Wang Jian stood on the high platform of the camp, watching the black and oppressive Zhao army in front of him rush towards his defense line like a tide, and his face did not look very good.

Out of his own considerations, Wang Jian did not set up the Qin army's camp in Yuanli City, but set up a large camp outside the city, and Yuanli City was a horn to each other.

One by one, earth-shattering thunder fell from the sky, and then there was an explosion, and even many fire oil bombs ignited the bodies of the Qin soldiers after they landed, turning them into miserable and miserable burning people.

Having said that, the Great Qin Empire's system of national cultivation and warfare has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people for so many years, and the resilience of the old Qin people when the national crisis is at hand makes Wang Jian himself a little impressed, so even if the Zhao army uses earth-shaking thunder or fire oil bombs to attack, it has been blocked back by the Qin army in waves.

Standing beside Wang Jian was his deputy general Wei Yu, and the two could be regarded as the youngest and most energetic pair of partners in the Qin State today.

It's just that at this moment, the topic of conversation in the mouths of the most energetic partners is completely twilight.

I saw Wei Yu say in a low voice: "General, I just got the news that the cavalry led by Yi Qulie has been completely defeated by a cavalry main force of the Zhao people, and Yi Qulie himself has been captured and killed by the Zhao army. ”

As soon as Wei Mi's words fell, Wang Qian's body shook slightly, and then slowly turned his head and looked at Wei Mi in front of him: "Is this serious?" ”

Wei Yi nodded with some difficulty and said, "Yes, the great general." From this point of view, I am afraid that the cavalry strength of the Zhao people is far above the estimation of you and me. ”

Wang Jian was silent for a long time, and couldn't help but sigh softly: "No, maybe it's just because Yiqulie's luck is worse." ”

Wei Yi was dumbfounded, but what he actually wanted to discuss with Wang Jian was not this topic.

I saw Wei Yu continue: "General, now that the Yiqu Lie Division has been defeated, then there will be no more main cavalry units of our army in the entire Beidi County, and I am afraid that it has become a foregone conclusion that the cavalry of the Zhao Army will go south to Guanzhong from Beidi, Hetao and other places." ”

As soon as Wei Yi said this, Wang Qian's eyebrows involuntarily trembled again.

This is a really urgent problem for the current Wang Jian and Qin State, and they need to find a way to solve it immediately.

In the past few wars, the reason why Qin was so passive in the face of Zhao was because Zhao had a condescending advantage and was always able to attack the hinterland of Guanzhong from the south of the Hetao region.

And more importantly, Zhao Guo's aggressive behavior often always gets rich rewards, and Li Mu's two attacks on Xianyang are the best illustration of this kind of reward.

Looking at the silent Wang Qian, Wei Yi couldn't help but say worriedly: "It is said that Pang Xuan's men have 50,000 cavalry, once these cavalry under Pang Xuan cut off the supply between our army and Xianyang, then it will be a big problem for our army to continue to fight, general." ”

Wang Jian was silent for a moment, and then spoke: "Then what do you think I should do?" Do you want me to send troops and horses back to help Guanzhong? In this way, wouldn't it be a repeat of the mistakes of General Wang Ling back then? ”

Wang Jian did not forget that Wang Ling, the general of the Qin State who was of the same clan as him, also led a division of the Qin army to the west to return to the Guanzhong, and then fought a battle with Li Mu in Chongquan, and was defeated by Li Mu, and used his reputation to achieve Li Mu's prestige.

The 50,000 cavalry of the Zhao Army in Pang Xuan's hands are obviously more powerful than the 20,000 cavalry in Li Mu's hands, how could Wang Jian make the mistakes made by Wang Ji and Wang Ling back then?

was asked by Wang Jian like this, Wei Yi seemed to be a little speechless.

But immediately, Wei Yi seemed to have made up some determination, and said in a deep voice to Wang Jian in front of him: "General, maybe it's time to consider a decisive battle with the people of Zhao Guoren!" ”

After listening to Wei Yi's words, Wang Qian's body shook very obviously, and only after a while did he speak: "Why did General Wei Yi say this? ”

Wei Yi looked at Wang Jian without evasion, and said in a deep voice: "General, the situation is very obvious now. Li Mu clearly planned to use the means of cutting off our army's rear route to attack our army in front and back. If our army wants to find an opportunity to win, then we must find a way to defeat Li Mu's main force before Pang Xuan's cavalry has yet to move south! ”

Wang Jian shook his head slowly and said, "Li Mu is a famous general in the world, and he has never been defeated in his life. Zhao Jun is the most powerful country in the world, and has destroyed the four countries of the Central Plains until today, and has the potential to sweep the world. Do you now want me to take the initiative to send troops to fight such an army? Have you ever thought about what kind of consequences it will bring to our army and to Great Qin if you lose this battle? ”

Wei Yi nodded very firmly, and said to Wang Qian: "General, if this battle is lost, I naturally know what the consequences will be. But the current situation is that if this continues, then our army has no chance of winning this war! ”

Wang Jian was silent.

To be honest, Wang Jian also knew very well in his heart that what Wei Yu said was indeed the truth.

If you just look at the strength of troops, it doesn't seem to be too much of a loss to fight the 250,000 of Qin against 350,000 of Zhao.

After all, when Zhao was in the Battle of Changping, it was 400,000 and faced 600,000 of the Qin army.

But Wang Jian knows very well that now he is facing 350,000 Zhao Guoxiong's divisions that have swept the world, and his command is only 250,000 Qin troops who have been defeated and fought repeatedly, although they still have the will, but the combat effectiveness is really not good.

What's more, Zhao Guoren has the capital to fail, while Wang Jian does not.

Wang Jian knew that the current Zhao State could easily mobilize an army of six or seven hundred thousand, and the reason why he didn't do so was just because the king of Zhao who was sitting in Handan didn't feel that there was no need for this.

350,000 people to deal with the Qin State was enough.

Taking a step back, even if Li Mu's 350,000 troops were defeated, then the next time Zhao might send a force of 400,000, or even 500,000 or 600,000 to conquer Qin.

But in the hands of Wang Jian and Qin, there are only these 250,000 troops.

As long as these 250,000 troops are lost, then the Qin State will have no room to turn the tables.

Therefore, after Wang Jian was silent for a long time, he still slowly spoke: "General Wei, maybe what you said does have some truth, but I can't agree to your request. ”

When Wei Yi heard this, he was anxious, and he didn't care about the attitude and tone of the speech between the deputy general and the chief general, so he rushed out and said: "But the general, if we continue to drag on, our army will definitely be defeated!" ”

"Enough!" Wang Jian stopped Wei Yu's words, and said in a deep voice: "As a general, I shoulder the heavy responsibility of the king and all the old Qin people, how can I attack so easily in such a situation now, isn't this exactly what Li Mu wants?" I will never send troops until the right opportunity arises! ”
