Chapter 212: Soldiers Don't Get Tired of Deception (I)
When the world was paying attention to the 300,000 Qin troops in Sanchuan County, something happened that shook the United States!
The 100,000 Qin troops stationed in Shangjun Fushi officially marched into Taiyuan County under Wang Ben's order, and since then it has been announced that the Qin State has finally sent troops to quell the rebellion.
Wang Ben was only discovered after secretly marching to a place thirty miles away from Gaowolf County, and after his whereabouts were exposed, he rushed straight on foot and rode to take Gaowolf County in less than half a day. Then the soldiers were divided into two routes, one was dominated by 30,000 cavalry, and the other was 70,000 foot soldiers. The two lines of soldiers and horses marched in two directions, and Lin County and Lishi County, which were within 20 miles of Gaowolf County, were attacked lightly before they had time to resist.
After the capture of Lin County and Lishi County, the cavalry mainly went all the way to the north, and the foot soldiers mainly went all the way to the south, and the 100,000 troops swept more than 300 miles in three days and nights to capture hundreds of villages, and then the two armies pounced at the same time to the terrier Yang, which was only 20 miles away from Jinyang, the capital of Taiyuan.
Terrier Yang and Yuci are the throat of Jinyang from two directions, and if Wang Ben captures Terrier Yang again, it will be equivalent to knocking on the door to the north of Jinyang.
Zhang Er still learned that the Qin State had sent troops to quell the rebellion, and before that, he and Chen Yu had been busy restoring the Zhao State.
Losing 200 miles of rivers and mountains in three days and nights, Zhang Er looked at the marks on the map that had lost contact and breathed almost uncomfortably, while sending people to inform Chen Yu who was far away in Dangjun and Zhao Xie who was sitting in Handan, and on the other hand, he sent commanders to gather troops from all directions, preparing to hold Jinyang before the arrival of reinforcements.
Fooled! All fooled! Recently, Xu Yan's headquarters of the Central Plains Legion in Sanchuan County has attracted too much people's attention, and they all thought that the Qin State would first attack Lu Zhe, who owned the three counties, ignoring that the Central Plains Legion also had a 100,000 troops under the command of Wang Ben in Shangjun.
Moreover, with the Xiang clan supporting Xiong Xin's restoration of the Chu State first, Zhang Er and Chen Yu couldn't wait to support Zhao Xie to restore the Zhao State, so that Wang Ben had an opportunity to take advantage of it, and it was actually an effortless attack to march two hundred miles in three days and nights.
Xiang was the first to recover, and it was not only Zhang Er and Chen Yu who were stimulated. Han, Yan, Wei, Qi, and the nobles who raised troops were all busy with Zhang Luo's restoration of the country. Wei and Han were surrounded by 300,000 Qin troops under the command of Xu Yan of Sanchuan County, and it was difficult to regain their position. In addition to Chu, Qi and Yan have also successfully restored the country one after another.
"Xiang Liang misunderstood me!" Zhang Er's eyes were already red, not crying, but anxious, "What do you say to use a stratagem to induce Qin State to attack Lu Zhe first, so that they can fight and lose both!" ”
Before, it really seemed like that, Xu Yantun, who commanded the 300,000 Central Plains Army Qin Army, was preparing for war in Sanchuan County. Ba County, Hanzhong County, and Nanyang County of the Qin State were also stockpiling grain and mobilizing troops one after another, and no matter how anyone looked at it, they were preparing to crusade against Lu Zhe, who was not a subservant of Nanjun, Hengshan County, and Qianzhong County. (Qianzhong County was renamed Cangwu County, they don't know yet)
Lu Zhe, who owns the three counties, is also actively mobilizing troops, and is building Nanling City at any cost. At the junction with Ba County, Hanzhong County, and Nanyang County, Lu Zhe's troops were also frequently stationed. The information reported by the spies was that Lu Zhe was not only replenishing supplies for various forts, but also building fortifications in some parts of the mountains.
Taiyuan County also has 100,000 Central Plains Legions, and of course they know this. However, the direction of Qin's grain and military equipment was Sanchuan County, and the Qin army assembled from Longxi and Guanzhong also drove to Sanchuan County. Both sides were preparing for war, and didn't Yiqiē indicate that there would be a big battle between the 300,000 Qin army commanded by Xu Yan and the 340,000 army assembled by Lu Zhe?
The so-called princes. They were bewildered by all kinds of signs, and generally felt that the situation would develop in the direction expected by the Xiang clan, and they were all busy restoring the country, especially after the successful restoration of Chu, Qi, and Yan. They seem to be more anxious to get back on their feet.
For example, Han Liang of South Korea, the king and grandson of South Korea, kept running around, first to seek the successful restoration of Xin Chu, and then to find the Tian family of Qi State. I heard that the two places did not achieve their goal, and even Lu Zhe, who owns three counties, wanted to ask for help.
The old aristocracy of Wei was ridiculous, occupying Xinzheng, Wanling, Weishi, Changshe, Yanling County and other places, which were less than two hundred miles in radius. I don't want to think about how far Sanchuan County is from Yingchuan County, they haven't even occupied a county, and they are even thinking about raising the banner to restore the Wei State?!
Well, now that the big war in the south has not yet started, Wang Ben, the partial division of the Central Plains Army, moved first, and it swept two hundred miles as soon as it moved, and the prestige was simply shaking. If Zhang Er couldn't block Wang Ben's troops and waited for Taiyuan County to be captured by Wang Ben, then the entire Central Plains would be threatened by the Qin army's troops.
"No! Can't just rely on me Da Zhao! "Zhang Er wrote with a pen, Qi and Yan must send troops to come, and the Zhao State that has not been restored after the loss of Taiyuan County is miserable, but the re-established Yan State and Qi State are not much better," Ji and Tian should understand the stakes? He confidently identified this, "Chu State ......, Chu State is too far away, but you also have to ask for help." Forget about Han Wei, the combined army of the two families is less than 30,000, and Han only has a pitiful 6,000 people. ”
With the efforts of Zhang Er and Chen Yu, and under the initiative of the Qin State to retreat, they had completely reoccupied the territory of the old Zhao before finding Zhao Xie, and even swallowed some of the territory of the old Wei and the old Qi. At present, Taiyuan County, Shangdang County, Hengshan County, Handan County, Julu County (most of them), Hanoi County, Dong County, and Dang County are all the spheres of influence of Zhao.
Well, it's not how much Zhang Er and Chen Yu can conquer and fight to restore their territory, it's really that Yu Meng of the royal family of Zhao is still there, and the eloquence of the two is good, and they don't have much strength to re-establish the banner of Zhao State, and after finding Zhao Xie, the king of Zhao, the armed forces of various places are under Zhao Xie's command.
At the end of the Warring States Period, the Tian clan surrendered without a fight, and the disaster of the soldiers was eliminated for Qidi, although the head of Qi felt depressed but very appreciative. Because the Tian family chose not to fight, the First Emperor was not suitable for persecution even if he wanted to look good, so the descendants of the Qi royal family are the ones who have survived the most and lived the most leisurely in the six countries.
After the destruction of the Qi State, in addition to the main branch of the Tian family, the kings and grandsons of the countries were moved to Xianyang by the First Emperor to take care of them, many clansmen still lived in Qi. They did not develop as deliberately and secretly as the Xiang family, but their prestige among the people was still good.
When the chaos came, the Tian clan also convened a grand ceremony for the clan relatives, Tian Rong and Tian Dan took the lead in responding with troops, and some of the Yu clan relatives objected to being killed on the spot.
Within three months of Tian's decision to raise troops to respond, Langxi County, Jibei County, Xue Jun, Linzi County, Donghai County, Jiaodong County, Jiaoxi County, Julu County (partial), Guangyang County, and the heads of various cities successively changed the banners of the Shangtian clan.
Dangjun was originally also the target of the Tian family, but things went wrong, and Chen Yu, who was newly acquired Handan, led 60,000 troops all the way south, not only seized Hedong County, which belonged to Wei, but also occupied the pottery land that was disputed by Qi, Zhao, and Wei, which is now Dangjun.
At the beginning of the restoration of the Qi State, Zhang Er and Chen Yu's generation to the west had already taken precautions, but the old Yan land to the north was still in chaos, and the Tian family saw that the Yan land had not yet been integrated, and followed Zhang Er and Chen Yu to follow the example, and a partial division went all the way north to occupy the coast of Julu County and ate Guangyang County, which was constantly fighting.
Guangyang County in Yandi was devoured by the Tian family, and Zang Di and Han Guangshen, who raised troops in Yandi, were afraid that the Tian family would continue to go north, and the two of them didn't know where to find a person from the Ji family, and they didn't know if this person was really the grandson of the old Yan Wang, so they raised the banner of Fuyan to inform the whole territory of Yandi. Maybe they were worried that the Tian clan would go north, or maybe Zang Di and Han Guang would unite to be strong in Yandi, and the leaders of Yandi could be regarded as stopping their fights and really accepting the integration.
Since then, Yandi has returned to the rule of the Ji clan, and in fact, the power is in the hands of Zang Di and Han Guang, and Xinyan, who owns Dai County, Shanggu County, Yuyang County, Youbeiping County, Liaoxi County, Liaodong County, and Lelang County, appeared.
After the restoration of the new Yan, Zang Di and Han Guang sent envoys to ask the Tian clan to return Guangyang County, after all, the old capital of the Yan Kingdom, "Ji", was in Guangyang.
How can there be any reason to spit it out after eating? The Tian family naturally refused to return Guangyang County, and even took Zhang Er Chen Yu's reluctance to return Qi Guodang County as an example. After Qi and Yan returned to the country, the first object of war was not the Qin State that had destroyed them, and the two sides fought for Guangyang County, and Yan was defeated and shrunk.
After the new Yan turtle shrank, Han Guang protected the royal family and re-established the capital in Baitan County, Yuyang County, and Zang Tu led 30,000 soldiers to expand eastward, killed the hairpin water (Yalu River) and entered the peninsula, fought with a group of savages for two months, and once hit modern Seoul (Seoul), expanded the land for 500 miles to set up a county called "Lelang".
Because of territorial entanglements, Qi Yan and Qi Zhao fought each other. Han Wei and Xu Yan led 300,000 Central Plains legions to entrench in Sanchuan County to deter the surrounding area, and they were destined to be half-dead. What about the South? In fact, it can also be said that Xiang Lu is evil, and Huan Chu of Lujiang County and Wu Rui of Changsha County support the army, and the Chu State in the south is congenitally insufficient because of Lu Zhe's cultivation.
Zhang Er, who couldn't help but look back, stared at the map, the current situation was even worse for the countries that were restored than the Warring States Period, and he suddenly had a bad feeling.
"If necessary, give up Taiyuan County and retreat to Shangdang County," the more Zhang Er thought about it, the more he felt that the strategy should be like this is the correct decision, "Taiyuan County was captured by the Qin State, and it was not only me Da Zhao who was under pressure at that time!" ”
However, it is not advisable to retreat without resistance, and it is necessary to defend a planned retreat, and Zhang Er must buy time for Chen Yu in the rear to deploy defenses!
"It's time to persuade Chen Yu to return Lu Shizhe's old friend and Mei Ji Feng!" Zhang Er was sweating, "The Xiang family wants to plot against Lu Shizhe, but Da Zhao can't fall too deep." ”
Everyone knows that the position of Lu Zhe to occupy the three counties is too critical, one thought to march east to force the south to fight, one thought to the north to cooperate with Xu Yan to sweep the Central Plains, and one thought can erode Qin Zhiba, Shu, and Hanzhong.
"Who is Lu Shizhe loyal to, and which side will he stand on?" Zhang Er didn't understand it, and Xiang didn't understand it, but in fact, no one understood it! (To be continued......)
