Chapter 11: The Confrontation on the Upper Plateau

readx;?ā€œ Yunhou marched to the earthen plateau? Hearing the scout's report, Meng Tian was taken aback. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoTian Lai Novel.2 Three days ago, he received an urgent report from Xianyang, and the king sent Meng Yi to Shuzhong to deal with Empress Xiaohou and Chang Wenjun. I was about to send someone back to find out what the situation in Xianyang was now. Unexpectedly, Yun Key actually led the soldiers to the upper earth plateau, which was stuck in the supply line of the army. Once the cloud key cuts off this supply line, the consequences will be catastrophic.

"Captain, what shall we do?" Fusu said with a frightened face. After all, he is still a child, since he saw the fierceness of the Yun family's cavalry that day. Fusu turned back into the cowardly Fusu! Now as long as he heard the two people of the Yun family, he was a little frightened. As a prison soldier, Fusu even connived at Meng Tian's act of killing the people and risking his merits. In recent months, several Zhuangzi have been killed around the camp.

"What else can I do, the army moves back to confront the Yun family. Sooner or later, those who should come back and camp on the other side of the hill. Although the Yun family's cavalry is powerful, our army is gathered together. If the supply line is shortened again, even if it is the Yun family, it will take a lot of effort to eat us. It's just that......! Meng Tian suddenly hesitated.

"It's just that I'm worried about the situation in Xianyang, and the recent news says that the king is in poor health and has been moved to Ganquan Palace to recuperate. If the body of the king is ......! ā€

"Father's body is fine! It's hateful that Hu Hai and the slut surnamed Yun are in Xianyang, and they will be the first to know any news. Fusu said angrily.

"Childe, please rest assured, someone has already sent a newly bred carrier pigeon in the house. In the future, the news exchange between Xianyang and Daying will be much faster, and there is no need to worry about the number of carrier pigeons and delay the delivery of news. In addition, fast horses also travel between Xianyang and Daying every day. No matter how big or small the news of Xianyang is, it will reach us as soon as possible. "The pigeon domestication technology has always been in the hands of the Yun family, and Zhao Gao spent a great deal of money to learn it. Meng Yi also recently bought off the domesticated carrier pigeon breeder, and purchased more than a dozen carrier pigeons for the transmission of messages between Daying and Xianyang.

The upper mound, which was located on the edge of the galloping road, suddenly became lively, and the 70,000 troops of the Yun family and the 400,000 troops of the Qin army confronted each other across the galloping road. Although there were few people, the Yun family's camp was occupying a high place, putting on a posture ready to attack at any time. 400,000 Qin troops, digging ditches and setting up rejecting horses and deer barricades. It's completely defensive, and the trenches are almost full of magma. The lieutenants still urged the soldiers to continue to widen, knowing that once they were rushed by the tall takin. Those rejection of red horses alone will never be stopped.

"Meng Tian still has two brushes in the end, and he is gathering troops in this move. There are enough men to defend everywhere, and it's not easy for us to find a breakthrough. Fan Zeng looked at Meng Tian's arrangement, and 400,000 people built the camp like an iron pass. Dense, dizzy to watch.

"He's been in the military since he was a teenager, so that's not a big deal. 400,000 people! With such a big lump, Daqin really has some family background. Feeding such an army of white food can also support Wang Jian to conquer cities in the east. Great Qin has achieved continuous victories over the years, and the Qin army's bravery is one thing. After the Shang Dynasty changed the law, the main reason for the gradual strengthening of the Great Qin national strength was the main reason. Zou Yan looked at the dense Qin army camp in the distance and said with infinite emotion.

Now Zou Yan has stepped down from the post of the head of the academy, and he will take up the position of Pingliang's pawn. It seems that the last time he said that Confucianism was going to Xianyang to give a big lecture, Yun Key was very satisfied. Although Jing Er was finally revealed, resulting in a failure, Jing Er's deeds of burning books and pit Confucianism have been widely spread. Not only did the well-educated people of the Six Kingdoms no longer yearn for Xianyang, but even the native Confucian scholars of the Qin State were also wiped out.

The most important thing is to make the pen like a knife, and write the merits and demerits for Jing Er in the future. In the years when the cloud key crossed over, the First Emperor was criticized for burning books and pit Confucianism for thousands of years. There's no better way to ruin someone's reputation. Not only do you want people today to scold you, but you also want thousands of people in future generations to join in scolding you. Its viciousness is far greater than killing Jing Er.

"Yes! National strength is the key, so many people do not produce. It also consumes a lot of manpower and material resources, which is not an ordinary burden on the country. On the other hand, so many young adults are trapped in the military. Failure to engage in farming will inevitably lead to a decrease in the country's grain production. This one in and one out, but it's a double portion. Great Qin was able to feed so many soldiers, but in fact, it was not entirely dependent on Shang Ying's law change. I want to thank Zhang Yi even more for recommending King Huiwen to capture Bashu. With this natural granary, Great Qin had the strength to attack the Six Kingdoms of Shandong.

Take the original Battle of Changping as an example, the world said that Zhao Kuo did not understand military affairs on paper. buried the 600,000 army of Zhao in vain, but in fact? Changping fought for three years, and 600,000 people confronted Daqin. Zhao's treasury has long been depleted, and you think that the kings of Zhao are fools. Can such a despicable counter-plot succeed? Zhao has a national minister like Lin Xiang, and a general like Lian Po. Can't see such a clumsy strategy?

Speaking of which, Zhao Guo can no longer support such consumption. Zhao Kuo came to the front line and overthrew Lian Po's established strategy in a big way. It was an order from King Zhao to end the war as soon as possible, and in the end, Zhao Kuo died in battle. The 400,000 soldiers of the Zhao people were killed by the Qin army, but do you see how King Zhao disposed of Zhao Kuo's family? The inside story is that Zhao's national strength cannot support such a long-term war. If we hadn't saved some money a few years ago, we wouldn't be so calm now. That's right, Ji Chang! ā€

"The Lord doesn't need to worry, those people on the other side are like chickens and dogs. As long as the lord gives an order, my Lao Chu will be the first to rush up and kill them all. Chu Dayong slapped the cuirass with a "bang" and "bang", and it made people's teeth ache.

"Hahaha! Lao Chu, forget it! Whoever your heavy infantry battalion can run in front of you, even the war elephants can run faster than you. You're the first to rush over, and we're all lame. Ao Canghai laughed, among the generals in Pingliang, Chu Dayong had the least military merits.

This is also something that can't be helped, Ping Liang's tactics dictate that he can only protect those vehicle-mounted catapult machine crossbows. Even if he really charged, Chu Dayong's heavy infantry ran no matter how he ran. is definitely unable to outrun those four-legged guys, which is an eternal pain in Chu Dayong's heart. This is why Ao Canghai dares to talk to Chu Dayong so much, if others say so, Chu Dayong will jump up and fight hard.
