The range of the battle is nearly thirty miles or so, and there is chaos everywhere, and everything that happens on the coalition side is uncontrollable because of the loss of restraint, and a large number of coalition soldiers either voluntarily leave the army, or passively separated from the troops, and they are like flies without heads.

The scattered soldiers have always been a cancer in society, and after they lose their restraint, any dark side will erupt in fear because of all kinds of panic. Therefore, what the armed soldiers often do is to loot the heads of the countryside and kill people.

For the rout of the coalition army, the Qin State had earlier cleared the battlefield area, and when it was unable to loot or kill the local residents to release their inner fears, it seemed that the target was only those merchants of the Han State.

At the outbreak of the war, the merchant brigades of the Han Kingdom had already built a camp in groups, and the small groups of Qi, Yan, and Zhao rebels were naturally unable to threaten the well-fortified camp. The large group of chaotic troops must be led by people with enough prestige, and the people who can gather a large number of routs will not be hopelessly fools, but there must be differences in thinking, some will not touch the camp fortifications set up by those people in the Han State when they see the perfection of the fortifications, and some will feel that they can take it after observation.

The coalition army was much more courageous after the collapse than before the collapse, and this courage was a different kind of fierceness that had been transformed after the extreme fear, and their attitude after launching an attack on the Han merchant brigade was far more resolute than when they were engaged with the Qin army.

Not surprisingly, the coalition rout was covered with a continuous rain of arrows when they launched an attack on the camp built up by the Han merchant brigades.

If they had seen their comrades being shot down by arrows before, these coalition soldiers would have been hesitant to turn around and retreat, but what is more amazing is that they have turned a blind eye to such a scene after becoming a rout. Still striding forward with a hideous face, he fell into a pit full of spikes, stepping on the spiked thistles, entangled in the vines with their thorns, and the arrows from the sky continued to fall.

The road was covered with dead corpses, which did not scare away this group of routs who were in a state of distorted spirit, and they had such courage precisely because their spirits had become abnormal. Eventually, they managed to break through the trap by stepping on the corpses of their companions and engage in hand-to-hand combat with the guards of the Han merchants.

I have to say that a group of guys with abnormal brains are desperately trying to get tough, and it is not so easy to deal with the Qin army's resounding Han retired soldiers and rural Xiaoguo in the face of the rout of the coalition army with hideous faces and not afraid of death.

After a tragic fight. After they killed the last coalition soldier, everyone who was still alive had a question in their hearts, the fighting skills of the coalition soldiers were not so exquisite, but the coalition soldiers' will to fight was too strong and their fighting style was too desperate, such a coalition army failed every time in the face of the Qin army, so how strong should the Qin army be?

They just can't understand it at all, the coalition army suffered casualties in the face of the Qin army, and the morale of the army was shaken, but when attacking themselves, they ignored the casualties and fought to the last person, if the coalition army could have the tenacity of such an irrational creature in the face of the Qin army. How can he be chased and killed by the Qin army again and again?

These Han merchant brigades who were attacked by the coalition army did not know that they could still keep their camp in the face of the crazy rout, while some of the other merchant brigades of the same country that were attacked by the Qin army were all breached.

When Tian Rong sent people to collect the rout, he finally got the news that the allied army had attacked the Han merchant brigade. It's the same as when Xu Yan learned the same thing. He was also stunned when he heard such news.

Attacking the Han Merchant Traveler? And it seems that the coalition soldiers are attacking one after the other regardless of casualties? Tian Rong was stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he was scolding, not only scolding those soldiers for why they were not so ruthless to the Shang Qin army, but also scolding those guys for causing a great disaster for themselves.

"Are those Han people still in place?" Tian Rong's cheeks twitched. His tone was a little cold.

"It's supposed to be still in place, right?" Some people are not so sure.

When Xu Yan learned that his army was attacking the Han merchants, he chose to accept the facts, and after accepting the facts, he thought about what peaceful means to use to make up for it.

Of course, Tian Rong also wanted to make amends, but look at his expression and tone. Obviously, it is another way to make up for it: "Don't do it, don't let those Han people have a chance to return to China, all ......" is a posture of wiping the neck.

Hearing Tian Rong say that, the faces of some coalition forces changed.

Many people are aware of one thing, the Han State has been waiting for an excuse to enter the war, after all, the Han army continues to mobilize and prepare supplies as long as there is a heart to detect it. If they are not mistaken, the king of Han seems to have repeatedly reminded the nations not to hurt their people without trial, and now not only has the fact of the established harm been done, but the commander of the coalition army is about to be wiped out on a large scale......

Zang Di frowned: "Prepare a generous gift, and send an envoy to negotiate may be able to redeem it, once ...... Then ......"

"No, no, General Zang doesn't know the King of Han," Tian Rongke stayed in Nanling, the capital of the Han Kingdom, for nearly a year and a half: "Since he has publicly promised to rule the head of Qian, he will definitely do what he says, and there is already a Han army stationed in Xiangxian in the north, so he is ready to do it." After a pause, he added very sternly: "We can't let those Han people return to China, once they go back to complain, the Han Kingdom will definitely start a war against us, and a death without proof can delay the time for the Han State to start a war." ”

It's strange, why do so many people think that Lu Zhe will be like that? Probably, just probably...... They understand that a ruler who makes a public promise is not a fart, that the ruler's credibility is limited, and that if he does not do what he says, he will be spurned.

In addition, they know very well that although the Han State is also engaged in war in the southwest region, the war there seems to be developing smoothly, and the Han army has not suffered decent losses in the southern theater of operations.

"Everything is not going well......" Zang Di shook his head with emotion and no longer objected, it is indeed possible to delay it, otherwise what else can it be?

The alliance forces later made up for it by sending a large army to encircle and suppress, relying on the advantage of a huge number of troops to face the Han merchant brigades that had been attacked more than three or five times, and they finally tasted the taste of devastation; Xu Yan on the Qin side was also making up for it, and his compensation was indeed relatively peaceful, and the Qin army took the people of the Han State away before retreating.

Lu Zhe knew that it had been three months since the Han merchant brigade was attacked in the war zone, he first got the knowledge from the Qin side, and then Yan Pi took a step slow to report, which shows how tight the blockade line is once Qin, Qi, Yan, and Zhao are doing one thing with all their heart.

Han Kingdom Business Hotel was attacked? So what about the casualties, Qin itself has confirmed that it is the attacking party and is looking for a solution. And what about the coalition forces? Did the coalition have a caravan to attack the Han Kingdom?

Lu Zhe lost his temper with Yan Bi and ordered Yan Bi to find out quickly.

Yan Bi was very wronged, he was ordered to closely monitor the movements of the centers of the countries with all his strength, and all his attention was focused on this. Besides, the intelligence in the war zone is a matter for the military, and it has nothing to do with him.

Lu Zhe's temper tantrum was not because of anything else, but because he himself forgot to pay attention to the Han people in the war zone, that is, he was embarrassed in his heart and did not know how severe the casualties were. After calming down, he summoned Kuaitong, Xiao He and several generals to tell what happened in the war zone.

"Now we know why the Central Plains Army of the Qin State has shrunk so thoroughly, and we also understand why the combined forces of Qi, Yan, and Zhao have stalled their offensive since that melee," Lu Zhe looked around at everyone expressionlessly, and finally stopped his gaze on Xiao He: "What stage has the construction of internal affairs reached?" ”

Xiao He sat on his knees and saluted: "Back to the king, it has reached the second stage. ”

That means that the planning of Nanjun has been completed, and the surrounding Hengshan County, Cangwu County, and Lujiang County have also basically formed a plan, and the arrangement of agriculture and industry has entered the right track, but the livelihood of Changsha County, Jiujiang County, Huiji County, and Huizhang County has not been restored, and the planning of Minnan County and Nanhai County has not begun, and Lingnan, the newly occupied territory, has only entered the stage of arranging strongholds.

"If you send troops north now, will it be able to operate in terms of efficiency?" Lu Zhe asked again.

Xiao He pondered for a moment and replied: "There will be no difficulty in ensuring the supply of grain, medicinal materials, cloth, and weapons to the army within three years, but the territory has been expanded, and I am afraid that it will be ...... in the face of the flow of refugees."

Yes, the Central Plains is not as good as the south, after the land in the south is defeated, Lu Zhe does not need to take care of the life and death of those aliens, but the same ethnic groups in the Chinese civilization system can not be ignored, so the war is no longer just for the consumption of military materials, but also enough materials to ensure the supply after occupying a place.

In the Han Dynasty's plan to go north, the army moved forward, and the civilian system was the old way of presiding over the cash-for-work so that the Qiantou of the occupied territory could survive on various hired rations, and it could also be used in this way to maintain law and order in the occupied territory, and of course, it was also selling the hearts of the people. However, the Central Plains has been a densely populated area since ancient times, and the consumption of grain and straw will be an astronomical amount, which cannot be supported by the Han State relying on three or four years of accumulation.

Lu Zhe didn't express any additional opinions, nodded to Xiao He, and this time the object of his gaze was Sima Xin: "The preparation of the National Defense Force?"
