Chapter 21 The Land of Changping (Part II)

Zhao Kuo nodded again and again after hearing this, he had seen the march map that day, the land of Shangdang was closer to Handan, the capital of Zhao State, and far away from Xianyang, the purpose of Qin's attack on Korea must be to balance Zhao, and the terrain of Shangdang was dangerous, if it was occupied by the Qin army, it would be possible for the army to approach Handan, and Handan City would inevitably suffer losses if it was not in danger to defend, and if Handan was lost, Zhao would be in danger.

"Uncle, what is the strategic location of the land of Changping?" Zhao Kuo was more concerned about the Battle of Changping, so he took the initiative to mention it.

Feng Ting nodded again and again, "Gongzi just asked about the key point, Changping was originally the most dangerous part of the party, and the position echoed each other with the party, except for Changping, the north and south of the party have no danger to defend, it can be said that who has Changping and who has to go to the party." ”

Zhao Kuo nodded, the land of Changping is extremely important, otherwise how could the largest decisive battle break out, "What about Gaoping occupied by the Qin army?" ”

Feng Ting pointed with his hand, "There is a mountain in the land of Gaoping, called Mishan, and there is a ridge named Laomaling in the west of Mishan, the terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, if a team of elite soldiers is arranged here can play a role in checks and balances, how can the mountain be dangerous, once it is surrounded and there is no way to retreat, so it is a treasure land, and it is also a dangerous place!" ”

Zhao Kuo's eyes fell on the marching map in Feng Ting's hand, Gaoping, the terrain is dangerous, if the Qin army lays a strange soldier here, how to deal with it, the mountain situation in Changping is dangerous, and the only thing that can be relied on is the infantry, the terrain of the two armies is particularly important, and the role of a high ground is not even less than tens of thousands of elite soldiers, Zhao Kuo frowned deeply in his eyes, and he should deal with it immediately after returning to Handan, the Changping War is imminent, and the weapons of the new army are also very important, and they must not be careless about their own life and death.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became dull, Feng Zhu pouted, I really don't understand these men, getting together is nothing more than three things, the first daughter, the second drinking, and the third is fighting, can there be nothing other than these, Mu Chen opened his mouth, looked at Feng Zhu with dull eyes, and countless moving scenes appeared in his mind, there are only two people left in the world, one is so beautiful, Feng Zhu hurriedly lowered his head, and did not dare to look at Mu Chen's almost hot eyes.

Leaving Shangdang County, all the way, I saw that the mountains along the way surrounded by steep terrain, a canyon in the middle through, the mountains are high and dense, and ambushes can be deployed everywhere, here is different from the plain fighting, once the strategy is wrong, it is inevitable to be besieged, and then the isolated grain and grass can not resist the inevitable army will be unstable and defeated, a battle between Qin and Zhao is inevitable, Zhao Kuo's face is gloomy, and he carefully checked all the way, Zou Yan nodded again and again, "Here is surrounded by mountains, the hinterland in the middle, it is really a Jedi!" ”

"What do you think if you are warring here?"

Zou Yan shook his head again and again, "It's full of variables and unpredictable!" ”

"What the gentleman said is very true!"

Straight along the canyon, he finally walked to the mouth of the valley, "Childe, ahead is the territory of Zhao Kingdom!" Bai Ying pointed with his hand, only to see a few camp tents built on a mountain beam, a city wall on it winding up, the banner of Zhao State fluttering in the wind, everyone's faces showed joy, and after some twists and turns, they finally returned to Zhao State.

"Aren't these walls the Great Wall?"

"The Great Wall! It's kind of interesting. Zou Yan said with a smile, "The purpose of this kind of city wall built by the mountain is to block the invasion of other vassal states, one can increase the barrier for oneself to resist, and the other can be used to avoid wind and rain, here is the southern Great Wall of Zhao State, and the Great Wall built in the north to resist the invasion of nomadic cavalry is much longer!" ”

Everyone went up along the mountain, getting closer and closer to the fortress of the city wall, the guards were alert, walking back and forth on the city wall, bending the bow and arrows at everyone, Zhao and Han have not been fighting, after all, it is a border fortress, and they dare not have the slightest carelessness on weekdays, the guard will stare at it with a big gun, a line of more than 20 people, including many old women, should not be the enemy who will come to attack, the arms are down, and the soldiers also withdraw their bows and arrows, so as not to cause unnecessary disputes.

When everyone came to the front, Zhao Kuo shook the token of the commander of the new army in his hand, "Zhao Kuo, the commander of the new army of Zhao State, wants to enter the city, and please let the general go!" ”

The garrison general just heard the name of Zhao Kuo, and did not recognize his person, the people in front of him were extraordinary, and the whole body exuded a unique temperament that made people dare not face it, and the identity must not be low, quickly walked down from the city, a team of soldiers and horses followed behind, the city gate creaked and just opened a gap, standing on the city wall, the vision was wide and clear, there was no army within a radius of several miles, even so, still be careful, the garrison general walked out of the door, and the soldiers behind him were divided into two columns, and the two dragons went out of the water array to surround everyone in the middle.

Mu Chen on the side stretched out his arms to protect Zhao Kuo, most of them were worried that someone would be unfavorable to Gongzi, thinking that this was Zhao Guo after all, how could he attack Gongzi, his eyes widened, and the soldiers were so frightened that they retreated, and the man stepped forward to salute, "Does Gongzi have a certificate?" ”

Zhao Kuo raised the token in his hand, "The king personally gave Zhao Kuo the token of the new army commander!" ”

The man stepped forward, took the token and quickly took three steps back, looking at the sun, shining, with the name of King Huiwen engraved on it, it must not be wrong, this kind of military talisman system that represents military power is very elegant, representing the supreme position, and you can mobilize the army with a military talisman.

The man hurriedly saluted when he saw it, "It turns out that he is really a childe, why did he enter from the Han realm?" ”

Zhao Kuo smiled: "It's hard to say. Zhao Kuo carefully put away the token, and Lian Po explained that day, as a general, the relationship is important to the person, and he must not show people lightly.

The man waved his hand, "Open the city gate and welcome the prince into the city!" The soldiers were ordered, the city gate was opened, everyone entered, and when they stepped into their own land, their hearts were suddenly relaxed, and their spirits were always tense along the way, Mu Chen had a smile on his face, this kind of situation was the most rare, Bai Ying knew that when he left the party, he accidentally saw Feng Zhu handing over a thing to Mu Chen, it must be that they fell in love with each other, so it was okay, they already had a partner to enjoy the love and happiness of the world, and they also hoped that these brothers would enjoy this journey earlier.

Zhao Kuo entered the city defense, and the gate was closed, "Can you take a visit?" ”

"Absolutely!"

The guards are in front, pointing out one by one, the city wall is built according to the mountain, with this barrier, the cavalry can only look at the wall and sigh, a few meters apart The terrain is more prominent to place firewood and grass, it should be for warning purposes, knock it with your hands, but it is mixed with sand and gravel, fortunately it is strong enough.

The Great Wall winds and can't see the edge, "I don't know where it stretches?" ”

The garrison general said: "The city defense is from the Han border to the Wei border, no less than dozens of miles, and there are soldiers guarding along the way to prevent people from attacking and disturbing it!" ”

Zhao Kuo nodded, after here is a horse Pingchuan, the cavalry can reach Handan in less than three days, once the defense is lost, the capital of Zhao is in danger, "Such a long defense, how to arrange the troops?" ”

The garrison general said: "The city defense is built on the mountain, and some of the terrain is extremely steep, and people can't climb it at all, so there is no need to garrison troops, only this kind of easy to climb place will be heavily armed." ”

"I see, hard work General Li!"

"Li has also heard about the matter of the son, young hero, the hope of Zhao Guo falls on you!"

"The rise and fall of a country is by no means controlled by one person, only the upper and lower concentricity can achieve hegemony, if you do not have to go through the wind and rain here day and night, how can there be the peace of Zhao today!"

"Childe's words, the suffering of the border guards is also worth it!"

Everyone walked down from the city wall, the defense was in order, the sound of soldiers training came in bursts, this trip to Qi country passed a year in a blink of an eye, I don't know what the situation of the new army is, whether it has formed a combat force, I just want to return to Handan as soon as possible.

The morning sun rises, reflecting the light of the Dao, standing on the Great Wall of Zhao and looking up, the land of Changping can be faintly seen, the mountains are majestic, and it is about whether the battle of life and death is coming, Zhao Kuo snorted coldly, from the moment he came to the Warring States, he was tested by death all the time, if Qin Wan's sword could not be avoided when the temple was broken, the trap of taking people's lives in the jungle in an instant, the fierce battle of Lian Jin in the middle of the night in the Plains Jun Courtyard, the trip of Qi faced the killing god Wei Mou, the double snakes that appeared on the big boat, and the almost wonderful killing methods in the wine shop, There will be more dangers to face, as long as you are fearless.

After breakfast, everyone set off, and the garrison general personally saw them off, and took out an object from his arms, which was indeed a wooden sword, very delicately carved, with joy on his face, "If the prince is lucky enough to go to Wu'an Li Jiafu, can he intersect this thing, and he has also made a promise back then!" ”

Zhao Kuo took it with both hands, knowing in his heart that it must be his father who promised to give a wooden sword when he returned before he traveled, and he didn't want to return after more than ten years, the wooden sword was warm, "General rest assured, I don't know what the son's name is?" ”

"One word, one shepherd."

"Li Mu!"

"Childe recognizes Xiao'er?"

Zhao Kuo waved his hand, most likely it was too coincidental, thinking about Li Mu's galloping war with Qin in the late Warring States period and almost undefeated, now it should be the same size as himself, whether this Li Mu is the other Li Mu, if there is a fate, you will know.
