Just when the envoys of various countries were running around, Zhao Kuo had a new move. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The day after the battle, Zhao Kuo immediately ordered Zhao Zhuang to lead 50,000 elite light cavalry to the east out of Fukou into Hanoi, and then turn to the southwest to attack the Yewang Fortress.

Since the Zhao army rode and shot in Hufu, it has become a Hu style early, and everyone can bring mare's milk and dried meat, so that they can protect the light war of the tenth day. In order to ensure the emergency, Di Chen and other lords even took the initiative to contribute a full 400,000 military food pills, all of which were handed over to the army of Zhao Zhuang. In this way, Zhao Zhuang led an army of 50,000 and went east lightly, without any signs of grain and grass mobilization.

Yewang Fortress is the general logistics base of the Qin army, and it is the only fortress in South Korea that leads to the Shangdang.

Three years ago, Bai Qi ordered Wang Ling to conquer the Yewang Fortress. The army was stationed, and immediately built a large warehouse for long-term grain storage, and at the same time widened the official road for the wild king to enter Shangdang in the north and the river in the south, so as to prepare for the transportation of grain and grass. In the following year, the cars were endless, the rivers were endless, and the military rations of the warehouses in the country were all transported to the wild king.

After three years of confrontation, the Qin army's grain and grass delivery has never been interrupted, and Zainowang has hoarded several large warehouses.

After Bai Qi joined the army and replaced Wang Yi as the general of the Qin army, the strategic center of the Qin army had been transferred northward to Duanshi Town, west of Laomaling.

Wang Ling, who was previously stationed at Yewang Fortress, also led his troops into the Changping War Zone under Bai Qi's order.

With the advancement of the campaign, in order to be foolproof, Bai Qi transferred the rear army to Changping several times, until the siege of the Zhao army, and the Yewang Fortress was already a few soldiers.

Zhao Zhuang led 50,000 light horsemen, day and night, all the way to the Yewang fortress.

The unsuspecting Yewang Fortress, in the face of the sudden arrival of the elite of the Zhao army, although the defenders of the fortress resisted and tried to defend the city, they were really outnumbered.

Coupled with the accompanying wolf warriors and others, using storage bags, carrying a lot of siege equipment, after a tragic fierce battle, the Qin army was finally defeated, all the staff died, and no one survived.

After capturing the fortress, Zhao Zhuang immediately ordered a fire to set fire to the warehouse in the fortress.

The blazing fire was red through most of the sky. Because there was too much grain in the warehouse, the fire burned for three days and three nights, but it was not extinguished, and a burnt fragrance spread all over the four fields.

By the time the Qin army in Hanoi got the news and rushed to reinforcements, the army of Zhaozhuang had already withdrawn. Seeing the Yewang Fortress burned to ruins, the soldiers of the Qin army turned pale.

If it is said that the Zhao army got out of trouble and Wang Ling died in battle, it was not enough for the Shandong countries to make up their minds, then the fall of the Yewang Fortress was to let the princes of the world see the hope of defeating the Qin army.

Among the countries, Wei and Chu were the most active.

Wei Guoxin Lingjun and Chu Guochun Shenjun tried their best to lobby their respective kings, requesting to send troops to jointly attack Qin. Even South Korea is not willing to be lonely, and reactivates the former Shangdang County Shoufeng Pavilion, which has a deep meaning that is self-evident.

Sanjin joined forces again, and it was close at hand. All of a sudden, the sky was cloudy.

The Battle of Changping brought together more than ninety percent of the armies of Qin and Zhao, and the two sides fought with the whole country, and if either side was defeated, it would fall into a situation of no return.

************

Handan, King Zhao's Palace.

King Zhao Xiaocheng's gloomy mood for a month suddenly improved, and he said happily: "Ma Fuzi did not disappoint this king, and he is really a famous general in the world!" ”

The ministers echoed their voices, but Lin Xiangru on the side had mixed feelings in his heart.

The government and the opposition of Zhao State have already determined that the Zhao army will win this battle.

The grain and grass of the Qin army were cut off, so they could only be forced to retreat and return to Zhao for a short period of time.

Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng was still a little worried, and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, Ma Fuzi is young and vigorous, and this big victory is afraid that he will regenerate his arrogance." The Yewang Fortress fell, and as long as our army held the pass, the Qin army naturally retreated. I'm afraid that Ma Fuzi will rush forward again and have a decisive battle with the Qin army, which is very bad. ”

Pingyuan Jun's words were like a cold wind, blowing the court into a cold wind.

Thinking of the scene when Zhao Jun was besieged again, all the ministers shuddered. Bai Qi's prestige is too prosperous, even in such a situation, no one can say that Zhao Jun is sure of victory.

Once Bai Qi seized the opportunity, the comeback was in an instant.

King Zhao Xiaocheng, like Pingyuan Jun, still has lingering palpitations about Zhao Kuo's previous rash advance. When he learned that Zhao Jun was besieged, he couldn't sleep all night.

Hearing Pingyuan Jun say this, King Zhao Xiaocheng's heart was also tight, and said, "What Uncle Wang said is reasonable. The king immediately drafted an edict, which was personally taken to the military camp by Uncle Wang, and the horses were restrained, and they could not easily go out to meet the battle. ”

"No!" Pingyuan-kun finally put his mind at ease.

************

Handan, Lian Po Mansion.

After being dismissed from his position as a general by King Zhao Xiaocheng, Lian Po did not follow the arrangement of his friend Lin Xiangru and went to the state of Chu to take up his post, but returned to the Handan mansion and closed his doors.

Hearing the news that the Zhao army had captured the Yewang Fortress, Lao Lian had a complicated expression and muttered to himself: "Is the old man really wrong?" Is it really not as good as a horse suit? May the Zhao army win a big victory, and there will be no regrets in this life. ”

************

Qin State, Xianyang Palace.

King Qin Zhao frowned, looked at Fan Ju opposite, and said, "Ying Hou, what is the situation in various countries?" ”

The fall of the Yewang Fortress caught the pair of monarchs and ministers off guard, and Fan Ju's white hair seemed to have a few more, and he said bitterly: "Your Majesty, the battle situation is reversed, no matter how you cut down the relationship, it will be useless. The key is still in Wu Anjun, to see how he can reverse the unfavorable situation of our army. ”

King Qin Zhao had previously been in the logistics of the governor of Hanoi, and before returning to Xianyang, he had a special meeting with Bai Qi. The conversation between the two monarchs and ministers is unknown to outsiders. The only change was that after the secret talk, King Qin Zhao's expression was much more relaxed, and he was no longer as dignified as when he first got the news of the fall of the wild king.

Bai Qi's words before leaving once again echoed in the ears of King Qin Zhao: The loss of one city and one place is not enough to determine the outcome of the war. What really determines the success or failure of a war is on the frontal battlefield.

"The prime minister continued to sit in Xianyang, manage the country, and do his best to collect grain and grass and transport it to Duanshi Town. The king will go to Hanoi again and mobilize men over the age of 15 to form reinforcements to help Chang Binh. King Qin Zhao said categorically.

"No!" Fan Ju solemnly replied that Qin's internal and external relations were in trouble, and it was the time for the monarch and the ministers to work together. This situation made Fan Ju couldn't help but say: "Old Qin, go to the national disaster together." ”

"Yes, this is the most difficult period for our old Qin people, and this king believes that we will definitely be able to withstand the difficulties and get through this difficulty." King Qin Zhao was impassioned.

Compared with the Zhao State, the Qin State monarchs and ministers and the common people are even more tenacious in adversity.

************

The outside world is changing, but the Changping battlefield is silent.

After successfully taking the Yewang Fortress, Zhao Kuo mobilized 50,000 infantry troops from the 150,000 troops outside the city of Guguan to increase the troops of the Huguan Fortress, and must stick to the only checkpoint fortress between the Guguan and Handan to ensure that the grain route is unimpeded.

At this point, the Zhao army formed a longitudinal defensive front of hundreds of miles in Mianyang along the Huguan Fortress - Guguan Fortress - Wangling Fortress, completely cutting off the possibility of the Qin army besieging the Zhao army.

Huguan and Guguan echo each other, and if the Qin army wants to run to the north of the Great Wall of Shi, it will have to face the front and back attacks of the two passes, and it will be difficult to make the trip unless the main army is dispatched.

Wolf Mountain, the shogunate of the Chinese army.

After introducing the layout of the Zhao army opposite, Sima of the Chinese army reported the latest military situation: "Wei Guoxin Lingjun led an army of 150,000 troops, starting from Daliang and marching into Hanoi County, and the front of the army was directed at Changping. In addition to Wei, other countries are also mobilizing for war, and the trend of unity is gradually becoming a trend. ”

"****, a bunch of wall grass!" The grumpy Wang Di couldn't help but scold.

There is no food and grass inside, and there is a strong enemy outside, which is really an unprecedented crisis for the Qin army. Even so, the generals were not depressed, and the reason was that Wu Anjun Baiqi, who was sitting behind the handsome case, was the god of war in their hearts.

"What is the grain and grass in the army?" Bai Qi asked in a deep voice.

"In addition to the Yewang Fortress, Duanshi Town, Laomaling, and Light Wolf City have all stored some grain and grass, but the amount is not large, and together, it is enough for the army to consume for twenty days. In addition, Ying Hou has begun to collect grain and grass from China, and it has been transported to Duanshi Town one after another. Also due to the long distance, it is impossible to count on in a short period of time. ”

Bai nodded his head, looked around at the generals, and said calmly: "The Zhao army has four chiefs. First, there is plenty of grain and grass. Second, reinforcements are coming. Third, the position has shrunk and the defense has been effective. Fourth, turning defeat into victory, morale is booming.

However, Zhao Jun also has four shortcomings. First, the vertical defensive front that has been constructed seems to be impregnable, but in fact the battle line is stretched too long, the army cannot take care of the end of the army, and there is a lack of horizontal extension, and as long as you make up your mind, you can easily cut it in two. Second, after the Zhao army captured the Yewang Fortress, it was unable to take advantage of the victory to pursue, did not completely block the grain transportation channel of our army, and the tactical implementation was not thorough, giving us a chance to turn the tables. Third, the successive victories, coupled with the imminent reinforcements of the Wei army, gradually gave rise to the desire to underestimate the enemy in the army. Fourth, the army retreated from its old pass, and the tactical choice was single, from active offense to passive defense. ”

The cave was so quiet that only the sound of wheezing could be heard. The generals are very clear that every time there is a big battle, Wu Anjun must first clarify the general trend of the two armies, and after clarifying the enemy's situation, it is a bold strategy to break the enemy. What the generals waited with bated breath was this most heart-pounding moment.

"Our army breaks the enemy, it is sixteen big characters." Bai Qi is a word for a moment, and the words are rammed into the mountains and rocks, "Encircle the point to help, the wall is clear, the snake is seven inches, and the encirclement and suppression are blocked!" ”

Wang Yi arched his hand: "Please Wu Anjun make it clear!" ”

"The sixteen-character strategy, encirclement and reinforcement is fundamental." Bai Qi turned around and stretched out his long sword to make a big plank, "The Zhao army is shrinking the defensive line and giving our army the opportunity to take the initiative." As long as they feint to attack the old pass and attract the attention of the Zhao army, they will send the main force to ride out of the white path, cross the Lingchuan River, enter Hanoi, and intercept and kill the Wei army. As soon as the Wei army is destroyed, the joint column will be broken, and the Zhao army will be besieged by our army again. (To be continued.) )
