Zhao Kuo's current army in the middle of the road gathered around Linshu City.

Because of the encounter in Lucheng, he was forced to move the position of the army to the north and gather here to better support the Zhao army in Lu and other places. From the battlefield of Lucheng, the news of Ban was half happy and half worried, what made him happy was that Li Mu repelled the attack of the Qin people, and the Qin people fled to Lucheng, and the worry was that the Zhao State lost a general, and the number of casualties was equal to that of the Qin people, and they also paid a heavy price.

However, the Qin people have some advantages in numbers, so the two sides pay the same price, or a small victory for the Zhao army, but tens of thousands of people were killed and wounded, which made Zhao Kuo faintly a little heartbroken, about Lucheng, Zhao Kuo did not plan to attack, firstly, the price to pay for the strong attack was too great, and secondly, the location of the main force of the Qin people had not been found yet, and Zhao Kuo was not good at making heavy troops attack Lucheng.

In the repeated confrontations with the Qin people, Zhao Kuo became more and more aware of the huge role of scouts, information is always the most important on the battlefield, Bai Qi did a very good job in this regard, which is worth learning from Zhao Kuo, therefore, he sent a large number of scouts, rushed to all parts of the battlefield, to find out the news, in such a winter, the role of cavalry is minimized, riding horses and galloping in the cold winter, which will only kill the scouts.

Moreover, the horses had to spend a lot of grain and grass.

The reduced role of scouts is not entirely a bad thing, at least, it will also affect Bai Qi's judgment... Probably will?

Zhao Kuo sent a large number of scouts, also brought very good news, scouts stood in front of Zhao Kuo, the young man's eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, Zhao Kuo smiled and let him sit next to the bonfire, casually followed him to bake the bonfire, just after asking about the situation, the scout trembled and said: "In the direction of the city, a large number of traces of fire were found, as well as traces of the army passing by..."

"We continue to track, and these traces have been in the direction of Mengmen."

Zhao Kuo was stunned for a moment and asked, "Are there any traces of chariots?" ”

"Yes, there are very many of them, and there are traces of the dense forest being cut down, and the Qin people are still stationed in several places, according to the scale, the number should be no less than 50,000." The scout said seriously, Zhao Kuo smiled and patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Please go to Li Yu and receive the reward, you did a very good job." When the scout was said by Zhao Kuo, his face turned red, and it was really a very exciting thing to be praised by the idol.

After sending off the scouts, Zhao Kuofang continued to look at the map.

Total, Mengmen... It seems that the Qin people are marching in the direction of Hanoi in a big way. Sure enough, Bai Qi still wanted to ambush the Wei army, and the army that appeared in Lucheng was afraid that it was also to attract his main army, so that he would not dare to send too many troops to support easily, I have to admit that Bai Qi was very right, after knowing that the Qin army was stationed in Lucheng, Zhao Kuo really shouldn't have sent people to reinforce Hanoi.

If it caused Zhao Di's defensive air attack, and the Qin people attacked directly from Wu'an, what should they do?

But if he doesn't go to support, I'm worried that Bai Qi will give priority to concentrating his army to eliminate the soldiers of Wei and then come back to fight him, so that the Zhao-Wei coalition army will be collapsed. At present, there are three choices in front of Zhao Kuo, the first is to concentrate on eliminating the Qin army occupying Lucheng, and then make plans. The second is to hurry to rescue the Wei army and join forces with the Wei State earlier. The third is to continue to advance calmly and completely recover Zhao Di.

Zhao Kuo thought about it seriously, as a general, he can't hesitate, but it is not an easy thing to make a decision, because one of his choices can decide the life and death of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, as well as the families behind them, and the people of an entire country, therefore, when Zhao Kuo makes decisions, he usually adopts the most prudent decision, never dares to be radical, he is very afraid that his decision will kill more people.

Looking at the map, entangled for a long time, Zhao Kuo gritted his teeth and finally made a decision.

.......

Shinling-kun's disciples were confused.

After gathering the whole army, the first decision made by Xinling Jun was to rob the boats of the fishermen in the surrounding counties, and in Hanoi, the resistance of the Qin people was very tenacious. After killing the soldiers who resisted, Wei Wuji was not able to settle down, because those lowest-level Qin people also tried their best to hinder the actions of the Wei army.

The soldiers of the Wei State disappeared every day, and his body could often be found by the river the next day.

And those who want to burn grain and grass at night, and even want to organize the people to attack the camp, are countless. In order to stabilize the rear in the future, Wei Wuji also quickly made a decision to kill these areas of resistance. There is a Qin person who resists, then kill all the Qin people in this place, and the chickens and dogs are not left, under such a cruel policy, when many Qin people want to resist, they are accused by their own people, after all, they are more afraid of death than those who are not afraid of death.

Under Wei Wuji's iron-blooded methods, the situation in Hanoi has improved, at least Wei Guo's soldiers no longer disappeared for no reason. After collecting enough ships, Wei Wuji only left a doorman with an army of 5,000 people to stay, but he himself led a large army to force the river crossing, and the doormen did not understand Xinlingjun's method, but Xinlingjun's prestige was very high, and they did not refuse.

During the whole process, Xinlingjun was extremely cautious, sending a large number of scouts to various places, and even the soldiers who were not allowed to cross the river lit bonfires to keep warm, he said, the scouts of the Qin people were able to identify their own situation from a distance through the situation of cooking smoke, if the enemy knew that he crossed the river, he would definitely attack when he was most tired, many doormen smiled disdainfully, Xinlingjun was good at everything, but he thought too much.

The Qin people are far away in Zhao Land, how could they come here to observe what kind of cooking smoke.

Because Xinlingjun was not allowed to light a bonfire, there was a situation where the soldiers were frozen to death.

However, Xinling Jun did not relent, and after landing on the shore, a doorman proposed: He should hurry to join forces with Jin Contempt while the Qin people had not yet discovered that they had crossed the river.

Xinlingjun rejected him and said: There is no sacrificial river yet, so you can't leave in a hurry.

Subsequently, he personally sacrificed the river water for those deceased soldiers, slaughtered livestock, and prayed for the river to protect all the dead soldiers, the ceremony was very solemn, Xinling Jun took out a large amount of meat for sacrifice, and there were witches jumping around on the other side of the river all day long, interestingly, these witches were all Qin people, and Wei Wuji spent a lot of money to invite them.

Wei Wuji's doorman also proposed: You can't waste it like this because we have enough food and grass, and the meat sacrificed to the river should be distributed to the soldiers.

Wei Wuji once again rejected the doorman's offer, and said: This is not useless behavior, you will know later.

Sure enough, as Wei Wuji said, the original complaining, frustrated, and even angry Wei soldiers, after two consecutive days of solemn sacrifices, most of them have undergone some changes, they have become solemn, their faces are full of fighting spirit, Xinling Jun asked Wu to calculate their results this time, Wu held up the turtle shell, and told everyone that the river god will bless the Wei army, and you will definitely win this war.

Hearing Wu say this, Wei Wuji's doorman smiled and put down the short sword that was placed around Wu's family's neck.

You're right.

It can be seen that Xin Lingjun is very worried about the safety of Jin Cong, but his march is extremely slow, and he keeps sending scouts to investigate the situation ahead, and every time he walks to a place, he hurriedly asks the soldiers to stop and rest, recuperate, and the guests shook their heads, they really don't understand what Xin Lingjun thinks.

However, there is no choice but to obey.

After walking along the river bank for several days, finally, the scout walked in front of Wei Wuji in a panic, and there was a Wei soldier who was tied up beside him, the soldier was wearing tattered clothes, his hair was messy, and he knelt in front of Wei Wuji without a look, his head was bowed, and the blood was still dripping from him, the scout looked at Wei Wuji and said, "General, I have discovered the rout of our army. ”
