Chapter 155: The Power Trap
Dark clouds floated in the sky, a gust of wind blew, rolled up the sand and stones on the ground, hit the body hot and painful, the soldiers of the Qin army on the periphery had to turn their backs, lose their tents, and could only choose to face it calmly in the face of bad weather.
The raindrops fell, and soon turned into a drizzle, falling from the sky like silk threads, and one person couldn't help but raise his head, and the raindrops fell on his face to reveal a coolness, and the Qin army camp was jubilant after suffering from the heat.
Looking at it from the big grain mountain, the rain and fog were cloudy, a little more beautiful, and the eyes fell, where it was the Qin army on the other side of the river that promised to have a little more pathos, and the damaged fortifications were burned into a pitch-black camp by the fire, and the corpses stacked high on the side were discarded, and only a few lonely towers remained in the camp.
The soldiers in front of the tent stood with spears in their hands, one of them sat in the middle, and the rest of the people sat on the ground, which one of the tents was not a terrifying person, Wu Anjun Baiqi, the general of the Qin army, Wang Ling, and the remaining generals were all generals who crossed the battlefield, and now they couldn't help but look shabby, and there were a few utensils on the ground in front of them, among which the meals were even simpler.
King Qin Zhao swallowed hard, "Is there any movement in the Zhao State camp?" ”
"There are several granaries rising in the Great Grain Mountain, and it should be the grain of the Zhao State that has been delivered!"
"Rations!"
Bai Qi said: "Didn't you say that Handan has no food to send? How did the rations come? ”
King Qin Zhao shook his head and said: "Handan spies sent information, Empress Dowager Zhao secretly contacted the family and collected hundreds of thousands of taels of grain in one day. ”
"So much!"
"Overnight!"
Everyone looked at each other, collecting hundreds of thousands of loads of grain overnight, such a speed was amazing, King Qin Zhao nodded, "Zhao is different from Qin, most of the land is concentrated in the hands of the Shi clan, and the lack of food is just an illusion, if the Shi clan makes a move, maybe you can take out more." ”
Bai Qi was silent after hearing this, the Zhao army's truce to build a granary is enough to show that the Zhao army led by Zhao Kuo has amazing combat power, not under the Qin army, and it is just a helpless move to kill repeatedly, and now that there are Wei reinforcements, they choose to rest the army, and they must take a defensive position, which is extremely unfavorable to the Qin army.
King Qin Zhao waved his hand and said, "Let's go back first, appease the soldiers in the camp, and it's time for King Zhao to respond!" ”
A team of palace guards galloped out with swords in hand, flew on their horses, left Handan and went straight to Changping Pass, carrying with them King Zhao to sign the contract.
There is nothing to say all the way, the grain and grass in Zhao Kuo's army is still insufficient, but the white army is deployed along the river, if it is forcibly killed and the price will be heavy, Xinlingjun led the Wei people to reinforce the Qin army will inevitably make the Qin army jealous, just as Zhang Liang said, only to find the help of neighbors can the weak defeat the strong to occupy the advantage, and ordered people to quickly build four granaries on the big grain mountain, which can be seen clearly from a distance, which is sprinkled with yellow sand and other things, from a distance it looks like rice grain, but it is just to confuse the Qin people, fortunately, the food in the army can still last for a while.
Without further ado, the palace guards hurried day and night, Changping was full of Wei troops, a person rushed forward to explain the intention, the Wei army opened the city gate, the guards quickly passed guò and went straight to the Changping camp, the soldiers came to report, there was a palace messenger who did not dare to delay, led the crowd out, saw the person Zhao Kuo clenched his fists, and the person looked at Zhao Kuo with a proud face, it was Guo Zong, the murderer of Zhao Shan, the day of the expedition was imminent, and he did not find the right time to get rid of this person, and did not want to come to the Changping camp with the king's order.
Guo Zong snorted coldly, "Zhao Kuo, why don't you kneel?" There was a bit of provocation in his tone, a face that seemed to be smiling was annoying, his eyes were staring at Zhao Kuo, and Mu Chen behind him couldn't hear it, so he flashed out and pointed at his nose and scolded: "Don't put green onions in that pig's nose and pretend to be an elephant, how can the * army kneel you!" ”
Zhao Kuo waved his hand, Mu Chen had to retreat, he couldn't wait to rush up immediately and beat him hard, Guo Zong didn't think so, this kind of abuse has long been used to it, fortunately, everyone learned to shut up later, when the bloody long sword pierced into that moment, everyone finally chose to be silent, at that moment the world became extremely quiet, all the noisy abuse disappeared, Guo Zong likes to kill, "Presumably, the * army is a person who knows the rules, not like such a barbarian." After saying that, he shook the object in his hand, and some of the generals recognized it, it was the king's order, and when he saw the king's order, he couldn't help but sweat for Zhao Kuo, there must be a festival between the two, why did the king order this person to come to deliver the letter, so wouldn't it be an unprovoked dispute.
"Zhao Kuo greets the king's order!" After saying that, get down on one knee and put your hands forward.
Guo Zong sneered, "It's still the * army that knows the rules, and it's good to return to Handan if the king's order is delivered!" After speaking, he slowly handed over the objects in his hand, deliberately slowing down, it was really a pleasure to humiliate Zhao Kuo like this, the two figures slowly approached, Mu Chen's fist made a creaking sound, glaring at the comer, Guo Zong's fingers were deliberately loosened, and the king order fell from the air in his hand, and Zhao Kuo could only bow his head to pick it up if he wanted to pick up the king's order.
A figure suddenly burst out, jumped up in the stunned eyes of everyone, grabbed the left hand in the air, Wang Ming was already in his hand, and his right hand punched out, Guo Zong looked proud and defenseless, punched hard in the face, screamed and fell backwards, and then saw Zhao Kuo fly up and kick Guo Zong, the whole person covered his crotch and lay on the ground and let out a miserable howl.
Zhao Kuo held the king's life with a cold face, "That punch was because you were disrespectful to Zhao Kuo, that kick just gave you a lesson, let you know how to behave, go back, be your dog, if Zhao Kuo is in a bad mood one day, it will inevitably take your dog's life!" ”
Zhao Kuo's whole person was like a sharp sword, his eyes revealed murderous intent, Guo Zong brought a few cronies and retreated in fright, and helped the commander from the ground, Guo Zong gritted his teeth, "Zhao Kuo, this revenge Guo Zong must be avenged!" His face twisted together, because the voice of pain also changed, and Fang was full of strength at that moment, Guo Zong was helped to flee quickly.
Mu Chen shook his fist, "Good fight, this kind of villain is light to beat him, it's better to kill him directly." ”
Zhao Kuo waved his hand, "Although this person is hateful, after all, he is the commander of the guards ordered by the king himself, in Zhao Kuo's eyes, he is just a dog that likes to bite people indiscriminately, and what he gets from killing a dog is only slandered by others, and Guo Zong is far more than one person who wants to die." ”
Zhang Liang stepped forward, Fang Cai saw it in his eyes, * Jun can bend and stretch is admirable, Fang Cai Guo Zong held the king's order to deliberately provoke everyone, fortunately, he stopped it in time, the king's order was taken off, the messenger's name was gone, and the beating was just a personal grudge, at least he would not be framed for disrespecting the king, "* army, it's better to look at the king's order first!" ”
Zhao Kuo nodded, opened the bamboo tube, took out the king's order, and immediately became angry, "How many brothers' bones have been exchanged for today's situation, why is this so!" Zhao Kuo didn't understand. ”
Everyone was stunned on the spot, only to see Zhao Kuo looking up to the sky and shouting, the meaning of grief and indignation can be imagined, what is written on the king's order, and has always been known for his decisiveness and tenacity* Why did the army show grief, Zhang Liang stepped forward and his expression also changed, only to see it written, "Give up Changping and sign a contract with Qin!" ”
Zhao Mu's poisonous plan stabbed straight to the point, Zhao Mu knew in his heart that Zhao Kuo's personality would not give up Changping, no matter whether he won or lost, the battle of Changping had paid too much effort, Zhao Kuo's biggest weakness was love, emotional people were also harmful, if they did not obey the king's orders, it was a crime of disobedience, if they complied, Zhao Kuo signed a contract to lose Changping is a sinner of Zhao State and was cursed by everyone, after all, there are only a few people who know the inside story, and the person who wrote the king's order is the king of Zhao State, and some people are dissatisfied with the king is the most beneficial to Zhao Mu.
The depth of Zhao Mu's scheming was terrifying, and King Zhao was worried, "Why do you want to send Changping to the Qin army, the first king once said that the place where the party is the door of Zhao must not be lost." ”
Zhao Mu said: "Although the Shangdang is dangerous, but the cost of troops is too great, why worry about the Qin army in the existing contract, simply stationed a team of elites in Changping Pass, Guguan, and deal with the entire Shangdang with the strength of two passes, so as to save troops and money to the greatest extent!" ”
Zhao Wangdan nodded again and again after hearing this, this is not unreasonable, even if he can keep the party, he will inevitably need a large army to garrison, and Zhao Guo does not want to fight again after the war.
