After the end of the Triple Alliance, the king of Chu led the Xiang brothers and the army of Chu to leave Taoyi and return to Chu, while Qi Wangjian also returned to Linzi, and only Gao Yuan and Tian Kezang remained in Taoyi.

Although both Qi and Chu had agreed to the tactics of attacking Qin in a separate and joint attack on the plateau, the plan for the plateau was not to start with the three kingdoms attacking Qin from their own countries. Instead, the two countries of Han and Chu first sent a small number of troops, and the Qi army was sent by Taoyi to attack the Qin State, causing this joint column to the Qin State, and the three countries were still the frame of the combined army attacking the Qin State to attract the attention of the Qin State, and then the Han and Chu armies sent troops from the north and south separately to attack the Qin State.

Just after the end of the Triple Alliance, Gao Yuan had already issued an order to Lingshou with a bird book, ordering Lingshou to send a part of the army to Taoyi to join the Qi army, of course, the army had already been prepared, and the king of Chu also promised that as soon as he returned to Chu, he would send 70,000 troops to Taoyi to join the army, so Gao Yuan did not return to Lingshou, stayed in Lingshou and waited for the Han army to come, and made some preparations first.

Although Qi is not as martial as Qin, it is also a large country, there were more than 100,000 conventional troops before, and after Tian Kezang took power, he carried out some rectification of the Qi army and expanded the size of the conventional army, and now there are nearly 160,000 regular troops, so after the king of Chu and the king of Qi left Taoyi, the Qi army arrived at Taoyi one after another, and in only six or seven days, more than 80,000 Qi troops had gathered, plus nearly 15,000 Han troops still stationed in Taoyi, and there were nearly 100,000 Han troops at this time.

Although the Qi army that has received training from the Han army is less than 30,000 people, Tian Kezang attaches great importance to the army, and when rectifying the army, he also strengthens the training of the army, so the Su zhì of the Qi army has also improved to a certain extent compared with before, and the most elite troops of the Qi country are basically the ones who arrived in advance, and it seems that the military appearance and military prestige are not bad, which is better than expected by the plateau, which is of course also due to the fact that the combat effectiveness of the plateau Qi army has not been expected to be high.

And in the time of waiting for the arrival of the Han army, of course, the plateau was not idle, so he helped Tian Kezang train the Qi army, and also explained the essentials of tactics to the middle and low-level generals of the Qi army, because this joint attack on Qin is the use of the tactics of dividing and attacking together, and now the Han army can also take a belt of Qi army, but in the future, the Qi army will have to fight the Qin army alone, so the combat effectiveness of the Qi army has increased, and the probability of winning the battle against the Qin State is greater.

There are also nearly 15,000 Han troops left in Taoyi, and all of them are elite Han troops, so the plateau must train the Qi army to have enough helpers, and at the same time organize the Qi army and the Han army to conduct confrontation training.

After the achievements made in the past few years, the prestige of the Han army has risen rapidly, almost has been above the Qin army, the Qi army is naturally only the part of looking up, to be able to train with the Han army, it is a rare glory, by it is in the confrontation training with the Han army, the Han army often only uses sixty percent of the strength, can easily defeat the Qi army, so it also makes the Qi army subdued, and the training of the Han army is far from being comparable to the Qi army in terms of exercise and training difficulty, and the soldiers of the Qi army see, I also didn't consciously increase the amount of training I had, and my attitude was much more serious.

Just over a month later, about 40,000 Han troops arrived in Taoyi, bringing the number of Han troops to more than 55,000, including three cavalry armies, including a heavy cavalry army and a Fan Yong army, as well as 6,000 Beiwei troops, 3,000 scout troops, 3,000 beast training armies and a chariot army. The number of chariots of all kinds reached more than three hundred and fifty, and there was also a medical team composed of five hundred women of the White Spirit Clan.

In the combat effectiveness of the Qin army, the Han army's beast training army and chariot played a big role, showing great power, so that Tian Kezang also gained a lot of knowledge, so he was very happy to see the number of the beast training army and the chariot army expanding. After more than a month of training, and after many combat training with the Han army, the Qi army's su zhì has been improved to a certain extent, and the experience of middle and lower-level officers has also increased a lot, and Gao Yuan also feels that the Qi army can still be used.

At this time, the Qi army had gathered more than 200,000 troops in Taoyi, and more than 1,000 ships were also collected, anchored in Jishui, and other Qi troops were still coming one after another, and at the same time, they also received a notice that the Chu army was dispatched, but because the Chu country was far away, it would take a certain amount of time to reach Taoyi.

After discussing with Tian Kezang, Gao Yuan decided not to continue to wait for the Chu army in Taoyi, and immediately sent troops from Taoyi to launch an attack on the Qin State, because the plateau continued to receive news from the Qin State and knew that the Qin State was also constantly adding troops to Daliang, and now the Qin army stationed in Daliang was close to 200,000, but Han Teng stationed in Nanyang and Meng Wu and Meng Tian stationed in Handan have not yet been mobilized, after all, Nanyang and Handan are stationed in the north and south respectively, which are important places, and the Qin State does not dare to lightly mobilize the garrisons of these two places. Therefore, it was necessary to put more pressure on the Qin State and attract more Qin troops to garrison Daliang in order to realize its plan.

In addition, if the army is stationed in the field for a long time and there is no war, it will inevitably slowly wear down the morale of the army, and the plateau is proficient in the art of war.

Although the Chu army has not yet arrived, now the Han Qi army has a total strength of more than 250,000, which is not not a strong force, and the Han army accounts for more than 20%, so it can start a war with the Qin State first. If the battle is won, it is naturally good, and when the Chu army arrives, you can take advantage of the situation to march; And even if it is frustrated, it is not a big deal, because as soon as the Chu army arrives, the strength of the combined army will be stronger and it can make a comeback.

On the military aspect, Tian Kezang now basically obeyed the plateau, so he had no objection to the plateau's proposition, so on 16 April, more than 250,000 troops of the Han and Qi coalition troops marched from Taoyi, and the foreign army, known as 300,000 troops, marched westward, and a new joint expedition against Qin was officially launched.

The army left Taoyi and marched west along the Jishui road, and the ships accompanying the army in the Jishui also formed a long fleet, which was difficult to see from end to end, and the army advanced by land and water, and it was mighty.

Two days later, the vanguard of the coalition army arrived at Jiyang, the border area between Qi and Qin, but at this time, there was not a single Qin army in Qin.

It turned out that the Qin army that raided Taoyi was annihilated, 15,000 cavalry, and only more than 200 horsemen were left who fled back to Daliang, and even the main general of the army, Wang Zhang, was killed, so after receiving the report of the defeated army, Wang Ben was angry and shocked, and he couldn't imagine that his plan was completely high, and he had already laid a net in Taoyi, just waiting for the Qin army to throw himself into the net, and sure enough, he completely annihilated the Qin army, fortunately, he was blocked by the order of Qin Wangzheng, otherwise it was not Wang Zhang who died, but himself.

But Wang Ben was very distressed, not only because Wang Zhang was his brother, but also because of this battle buried 15,000 cavalry troops, over the past few years, Wang Ben worked hard, while groping and training, this time the formation of nearly 30,000 cavalry troops, this time it was half dismantled, which naturally made Wang Ben feel painful.

After receiving the news that the armies of the three kingdoms had gathered in Taoyi, seeing that the war was imminent, Wang Ben sent people back to Xianyang to send a letter to Qin Wangzheng to inform him of the failure of the raid, and at the same time arranged the army to guard the beam.

Since knowing that the three kingdoms of Han, Qi and Chu were going to form a joint column to attack Qin, the Qin State had already begun to prepare to rely on the Great Liang to resist the combined vertical army, at this time the Qin State had suddenly gathered nearly 150,000 troops in the Great Liang, and also prepared grain and grass materials that could support the 300,000 troops for two years, so it can be said that it has initially prepared the ability to resist the combined vertical army.

However, Daliang is still more than 150 miles away from the Qi-Qin border, and the Qin State still has tens of thousands of troops stationed in the Qi-Qin border, which is the first to face the front of the Hezhong army.

But Wang Ben's heart is very clear, these tens of thousands of Qin troops are impossible to resist the attack of the Hezong army, unless it is the defenders of the Liang who are their own and rush to the border to be able to confront the Hezong army, but in this way, not only deviates from the strategy formulated by the Qin State to rely on the Liang and resist the Hezong army, but also falls into the hands of the plateau, because he can calmly defeat the Qin army in the field, eliminate the living force of the Qin army, and then attack the Liang. More importantly, Wang Ben was not confident that he would be able to defeat Gao Yuan on the battlefield.

So Wang Ben ordered all the defenders on the border to withdraw to Daliang City to garrison, first, to further strengthen the garrison of Daliang City, because with the addition of the defenders of the border, the army in Daliang City can exceed 200,000; Although the 15,000 Qin cavalry troops who raided Taoyi were wiped out, but with the transferred army, there are still more than 20,000 cavalry troops in Daliang City, and Wang Ben is still quite confident in the cavalry. In addition, strive to be able to win a few battles to boost the morale of the Qin army and offset the adverse effects of the total annihilation of the raiding army.

Of course, Wang Ben also knew that although this kind of small fight could win a few battles, it was impossible to reverse the overall situation, because the strength of the Hezong army was abundant, and the early Hanqi army alone had nearly 300,000, plus the follow-up army, it was far from what the 200,000 Qin troops in Daliang City could fight against, even if it was a few small losses, there was no vitality, so Wang Ben hurriedly wrote down an emergency document and sent it back to Xianyang while preparing to resist the Hezong army. Request for reinforcements from the Qin State.

Therefore, in this way, after the combined forces of Han and Qi entered the Qin realm, they did not encounter any resistance at all, and the road was smooth as if entering a no-man's land, until they went deep into the territory of Qin for seventy or eighty miles, and the soldiers also approached the city of Daliang.
