Chapter 287 Shocking Qin Zhao Zhengfeng (11)

The Chinese army battalion, Ying Zheng looked calm, the Qin army lost nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses in the first battle, and the loss of 20,000 could not be exchanged for a few arrow towers of the Zhao army, which was completely defeated, and the initial battle had a great impact on morale, and the commander of the army attached great importance to the results of the first battle, and Qin rarely won against Zhao, especially in the face of Zhao Kuo, once this kind of situation spread among the army, the consequences can be imagined.

King Qin was sitting in a flat tone, but Wang Jian on the side seemed inappropriate.

"Wang Jian has the weight of the king, and he should make meritorious contributions to my king to kill the enemy, in order to repay the king's kindness, and now he will attack Zhao and return after defeat, Wang Jian is at fault."

King Qin laughed when he heard this, "If this king is determined to destroy Zhao, when will it be done?" ”

"At least three years, more than ten years."

Ying Zheng nodded, what Wang Jian said is true, Zhao State has the city and land at this time, not under Qin, Qin can mobilize more than one million soldiers and horses, if the final decisive battle is far exceeded, Zhao is the same, neither side will give up lightly, close to millions of people to fight, for a while it is impossible to distinguish the winner or loser.

"Yes, in this case, why bother with temporary success or failure, it is undeniable that Zhao Kuo is a person with great courage, openly intercepting halfway, and constantly causing trouble along the way is even more clever, so it exposes the disadvantages even more."

"Wang Jian doesn't know, please make it clear to the king."

"It's very simple, the Zhao army is insufficient, if King Zhao leads all the main forces here this time, what should Zhao Kuo's method of raising troops in the past?"

"The enemy is dark and I am clear, and I will attack with all my strength, one team will attack my rear camp, one team will attack the front camp, one team will attack the middle formation, and three teams of soldiers and horses will come out together, so it can achieve miraculous results." After Wang Jian finished speaking, he finally figured out the meaning of King Qin's words, many of Zhao Jun's actions were just delays, and the strength was inevitably insufficient, no matter what, the final winner of this battle was Qin.

"The front camp has many obstacles to prevent the Zhao army from stealing the camp."

"Oh~!"

The king of Qin did not dare to be careless, and checked the previous combat records of Qin and Zhao, and several major battles were finally completely defeated by the night attack of the Zhao army, and the camp had to be guarded against several times.

Wang Jian said: "King, since you are worried, it is better to simply attack, today's defeat, the Zhao army will inevitably be careless, and the last general is willing to lead his troops to attack at night." ”

Ying Zheng shook his head, "The Zhao army occupies a favorable location, has a circular arrow tower array, and people have the same wide field of vision at high places, and it is difficult to attack at night but is easy to be ambushed, and we will find a way after dawn." ”

Wang Jian clenched his fists and withdrew, Ying Zheng let out a sigh of relief, the pressure on his young age can be imagined, his eyes closed, if he faces Zhao Kuo's various calculations in the future, how to deal with it, Wang Jian left, and only Ying Zheng was left in the big tent

There was nothing to say all night, the sky was bright, Wang Jian inspected the camp, the morale of the soldiers was not affected at all, after yesterday's battle, the camps asked for battle, Qin can have the strength to make the six countries feared is the strong military strength, the Shang Yang change completely made Qin rich and strong, the treasury was full of grain and grass, and the army was strong.

"General, look."

The former army general pointed with his hand, Wang Jian looked in the direction of his finger, yesterday destroyed several arrow towers do not know when to be repaired, the soldiers above are standing Zhao Guo flag fluttering in the wind, Zhao Kuo quickly responded, taking advantage of the night to repair the arrow tower, the speed is extremely fast, the wooden stakes have been erected, some people keep beating with stone hammers, the wooden blocks are also paved on it, people stand on it not only firm but also convenient to move back and forth.

A team of soldiers traveled back and forth, material resources were continuously sent, dry food, drinking water, arrows, the soldiers in charge of the arrow tower guard sharpshooter battalion were full of food and drink, the arrows were loaded into the arrow box, leaving a team of men and horses to keep vigil, and the rest of the people lay on it to rest, the wind was not affected in the slightest, and the fierce battle was sleepy for a day, and the snoring was not long in time.

A few people sat on the ground under the arrow tower in the middle, today's big victory over the Qin army, everyone was in a good mood, and when they mentioned today's war, they waved their arms, and there were bursts of laughter, but Zhao Kuo frowned and didn't say a word.

"King, are you worried?"

Zhao Kuo nodded, "I'm afraid the Arrow Tower won't be able to delay for too long." ”

"Is the king worried that the Qin army will find a way to break the formation?

One person said angrily: "Our army has the advantage of the arrow tower, plus a strong bow and a hard crossbow, the Qin army doesn't want to pass through here at all." ”

"What Brother Hei Niu said is reasonable, and I have seen it today, the Qin army launched many attacks in a row and it was ultimately ineffective, as long as there are cavalry to suppress the formation, it will be fine."

Zhao Kuo smiled indifferently, "The way of defense lies in the fortified city and dangerous places, so the two are indispensable, but unfortunately they are not available here, and they can be held for a while, and it is difficult to hold them for a long time." ”

"In that case, why did the king go to such great lengths to build it that day?"

Several people nodded at the same time, completely obeying the decision made by King Zhao, that day Zhao Kuo ordered to dig dozens of ditches outside the city, and then ordered people to get wood to build the arrow tower, no one raised any objections, everyone knew that the decision made by the king must be correct.

"Forced by the shape, although there are dangerous shoals and rapids in the rear, it is a pity that the area is too wide, and once the troops are dispersed, it is inevitable that they will be drawn by the Qin army, and only this place, although it is not a necessary place, is also the best choice."

"Once the Qin army takes a detour, won't it be a bamboo basket to fight for water in vain."

"How did you forget about it?"

The land of Chu is vast and sparsely populated, except for some fortresses, other routes can also return to Xianyang, but it is only a few more days, once the Qin army does not want to consume the Zhao army here and choose other places, it is completely useless to spend a lot of effort to build the arrow tower.

"No, King Qin will definitely pass by here in a desperate gamble."

Zhao Kuo's words were affirmed, everyone looked puzzled, King Qin was not a fool, why bother to make trouble for himself, once he took a detour, no matter how fast the Zhao army was, he would not be able to deal with it in advance to form an effective defense.

"The reason is very simple, King Qin wants to prove himself in front of everyone."

The big tent of the Qin army, Qin Wang Yingzheng has no sleep, for some reason, the moment he learned that the Zhao army appeared in front of him was inexplicably excited, this excitement was completely different from the face of the Chu army, that was the desire for a real war, Chu was already the end of the strong crossbow, Qin destroyed Chu as if destroying the withered and decaying without any challenge at all, Zhao is different, since the Wuling King has been strong and has always been at war with Qin, some old things have also been understood from the historical records, Lin Xiangru returned to Zhao completely, Lian Po was guilty of Jing and made a good story, Zhao Guoyong will come out one after another, but unfortunately Qin still has a white rise, There is Bai Qi in the world people dare not speak bravely, even if Lian Po can not match Bai Qi, the battle of Changping, the young commander Zhao Kuo came out of nowhere to turn the tide, Zhao Guo's strength today is closely related to this person, and it can even be considered that defeating Zhao Kuo is equivalent to defeating Zhao Guo.

"Zhao Kuo, the widow will definitely be able to defeat you completely."

Ying Zheng got up and walked out of the big tent, the cold wind blew and was even more sober, the guards quickly followed, Ying Zheng waved his hand, "Just walk around, let's rest." ”

"Whoa!"

The guards had to retreat, the vigil was originally a chore, since the king agreed to simply rest, Yingzheng went all the way forward, it was dark along the way, only the front camp showed the light of torches.

Bursts of screams came, Ying Zheng stopped, walked in the direction of the sound, a team of soldiers holding spears and waiting, what happened inside, Ying Zheng was curious, came to the front and finally saw clearly, under the light of the torches, the ground was full of wounded soldiers, it was good luck to be hit by arrows and pick up their lives, as long as they pulled out the arrows and then put a little healing medicine on them, they could completely save their lives, many people's hands and feet were cut off by sharp blades, and they could only tighten the wounds with cloth, the pain can be imagined, and the screams were mixed with angry scolding.

"The King." One person suddenly raised his head, and happened to see King Qin standing there with a gloomy face, so frightened that he hurriedly knelt on the ground, and a stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the guards and soldiers knelt on the ground and saluted.

"Get up."

Everyone got up, Ying Zheng leaned down, the man tried to sit up, and was hit by an arrow in the chest, which was considered lucky, and he was not more than an inch away from the vital point, "Lie down, the widow will come to see you." ”

"How can we, the untouchables, bother the king to visit, and how can we repay such kindness."

Most of the people who fought in the Qin army were composed of lowly people, many of whom were captured from Chu, Han and other places back then, and had to join the Qin army in order to save their lives, and their status naturally could not be compared with the Qin people.

"Wrong, it's a big mistake, the one who should really be thanked should be the widow, if there is no soldier who throws his head and spills blood and fights bloodily, the widow will only be like the king of Chu, how to talk about glory."

"Towering Old Qin!"

King Qin's words touched everyone's emotions, and everyone knelt on the ground again, chanting four words in their mouths, not afraid of life is also Qin Soul.

"What is there to fear from such a widow."
