Chapter 140: The Empty Warehouse

Compared with King Qin, King Zhao has a lot of resourcefulness, but his spirit is completely different.

Lin Xiangru is brave and resourceful, and his loyalty to Zhao can be described as unswerving to death, plus Lin Xiangru is familiar with the past and the present, and his strategy is high, so since then, Zhao's domestic affairs are not worried.

Lian Po is one of the four famous generals of the Warring States, Le Yi is still afraid of three points, and Bai Qi has never fought with Lian Po, but he knows that Lian Po is powerful, and the current confrontation with Lian Po is not Bai Qi, but Wang Di.

It is not difficult to see that perhaps King Qin beware of the undefeated record of the God of War ruined in the hands of Lian Po, of course, the reputation of the commander is not necessarily the most important, and at the moment, no one can afford to lose to Qin and Zhao.

At present, if the war is defeated, it will not only lose face, but also consume reputation and national strength.

In today's world, according to gambling, the battle between Qin and Zhao is a bet on the fortune of the country, so no one can afford to lose.

Of course, at the moment, Zhao State is not willing to consume national strength with Qin State, just stop and stop, take advantage of a little advantage, but Qin State does not think so, in the eyes of Qin State, win again and again, and now if there is a draw with Zhao State, then all the princes of the world will ally with Zhao State.

The wolf heart that carves up the Qin State will rise up, so the Qin State cannot afford to lose at the moment.

At present, in the city of Handan of Zhao State, that is, in the palace, King Zhao at this time is even more nervous than Lian Po, because the scouts from the Kongcangling defense line told King Zhao that the combat power of the Qin army is fierce, and the scouts describe the combat effectiveness of the Qin army, which is possessed by extraordinary people.

He also said that the combat effectiveness of the Qin army was like a tiger and wolf, which was very terrifying, and although the Zhao soldiers were brave, they were all afraid of the Qin army, which made King Zhao panic.

In the previous Qin State's use of troops against Han, Chu, and Wei, King Zhao knew the strength of the Qin army, and when it came to the bottom of his heart, how could King Zhao not be afraid, how could he not tremble.

King Zhao was anxious, but received a letter from Lian Po to comfort: "King and rest assured, Kongcangling is only an outpost at the front of my Zhao army, and its role is to warn, and what can really resist the Qin army is the second line of defense, Danhe, so a large number of bows and arrows are needed, and I hope that a large number of arrows and feathers from Hufu cavalry will be provided to the front line in China, whether it is a Xuantie arrow or a green bamboo arrow, the front line needs it, and a large number of it"

After reading Lian Po's letter, King Zhao felt in his heart: "General Lian Po needs a lot of arrows on the front line, and he also needs to draw my elite cavalry archers of Zhao State, what do you think?"

A strategist came to see you: "King, now General Lian Po has stationed 100,000 troops in the Dan River, and there are also 100,000 troops in Kongcangling, a total of 200,000, and now I have to mobilize elite cavalry archers in Zhao State, so the pressure on the front line of my Zhao State is not small."

"How about replacing the ordinary soldiers and mobilizing all the cavalry archers to the front line?" asked King Zhao.

A military general replied: "King, the arms cooperate with each other, shield marksmen, cavalry and halberd soldiers, and the matching is a comprehensive operation in turn, why do you need to use the archers to defend the Dan River, so what should the Qin army do when they cross the river?"

King Zhao felt that his words were reasonable, and at this time, another scout came and told King Zhao: "There is an urgent military situation ahead"

"Say," the king asked.

"The Kongcangling defense line has been broken, and now my Zhao State has been killed by six captains, and the Qin army has advanced all the way to the Dan River, and at present, my Zhao State's Kongcangling defense line has retreated from Zhao soldiers, and it has been 80,000, under the arrangement of General Lian Po, all of them have crossed the river, and there are 20,000 soldiers fighting bloodily."

"What" King Zhao was shocked, and then said: "In just three months, fortunately, General Lian Po asked 80,000 warriors to retreat, quickly, quickly replace the archers with other troops"

King Zhao's words were jointly opposed by the civil and military generals, but King Zhao said angrily: "When the widow joined the party, why didn't you object?" Now all those who have done bad things for me have been killed."

Between the spirits, everyone was speechless, and then King Zhao was worried about state affairs.

It was not only Zhao Guo who was worried, but also General Lian Po, who rode and robbed to report to Lian Po: "The remaining 20,000 troops have rescued more than 12,300 people, and with such progress, we can only put the sacrifice to a minimum."

After hearing this, Lian Po expressed his satisfaction: "But Kongcangling actually fought so fiercely by the Qin army, it is not a loss to the Qin division known as the first in the world, the sandwich defense of Kongcangling was taken by the Qin people in three months, and my six captains were sacrificed, right now, it seems that the Dan River is the defense line of my Zhao country's life and death."

At this time, Lian Po was north of the Dan River, planning troops to garrison, and archers east of the Dan River were preparing for battle.

In the Qin State, Wang Yu summoned the generals and highly praised the attack on Kongcangling, although it took a full three months, but the last move to annex Kongcangling, the fight was very beautiful.

The adjutant said, "General, we need a lot of boats to cross the river next."

"Yes, the general is willing to prepare the boatmen and the timber for the boats."

The big words of the two generals were not recognized by Wang Di, because Wang Di knew the Dan River of Zhao State very well: "The Dan River flows from the south to the south, and the tide and tide are unpredictable, so the deep water and shallow water alternate ordinary, if we take the liberty of repairing the ship now, plus the enemy army archers are ambushed in the narrow road that must be passed, won't our Qin army die in vain"

The general replied: "Yes, and the archers of Zhao are notoriously powerful, and if they are used here, I'm afraid we Qin people won't be able to bear it."

Another general of the Qin State ordered and said: "The Qin army is close to 300,000, and the Zhao State really wants to defend with bows and arrows, so how many bows and arrows are needed to defend it?" Isn't it necessary to mobilize the whole country? King Zhao is willing? Even if King Zhao is willing, then the ministers will not approve"

Wang Di felt that Lingli's words were very reasonable, but at the moment, Wang Di felt that there was no need to take risks, comparing the 300,000 Qin army to the Qin State at this time, it was not a small number, not to mention that shipbuilding was also a great consumption of national strength, and he didn't know what the result would be.

For the Qin State, the best state is to lure the snake out of the hole, and it is best for the Zhao army to take the initiative to fight the Qin State, so it takes time and opportunity.

In the palace of King Qin, King Yingji of Zhaoxiang was at a loss, and then a voice said: "It is not easy for the king of Qin to send troops to Danshui of Zhao State, otherwise the loss is too large, even if he crosses the river, it will be difficult to win."

"Wu Anjun, what do you mean?"

"The importance of Zhao Guo lies in the generals, Lian is quite old, experienced and calm, so he is a difficult opponent to deal with on top of his stubbornness"

"What do you think of Wu Anjun, otherwise you will replace Wang Di and capture Zhao State," Zhaoxiang said.

But Bai Qi doesn't think so, in fact, Fan Ju's idea is no different from Bai Qi, because Bai Qi is the last hole card of Qin State at the moment, Qin State is attacking, and Zhao State is defending, so it is not an exaggeration for Zhao State to send Lian, but Qin State can also send Wang Di.

If the Qin State attacked and immediately dispatched Bai Qi, it would not make much sense, so at the moment, Bai Qi felt that he and Fan Ju had the same meaning, and the king could understand it, but the king was very anxious.

Fan Ju comforted: "King, since the beginning of the dedication, how many generations of Qin people have been waiting, why worry for a while"

Hearing this, Yingji's heart is much calmer, it seems that this is indeed the case, for the Qin State, after waiting for hundreds of years, why worry about this time, and then there are guards to bring Jiuding, that is, after the fall of Zhou Wangji, the Qin people moved from it Jiuding.

Jiuding foreshadows Kyushu, of course, this is not the real secret of Jiuding, the most important secret, is Jiuding, stored after the Yu reigned the water, the map of the mountains and rivers of the land of Kyushu, which is recorded in detail, the topography and landforms in Kyushu, as well as important military information such as rivers.

Wang Di was on the front line, and the Qin people had a copy by hand, so Wang Yi would know the problem of the Dan River, and the Qin army at this time seemed to be unable to do anything except set up an offensive in the Danshui River.

King Zhaoxiang said: "Is it just so consumed? ”

Bai Qi replied: "That's the only way"

Fan Ju told King Zhaoxiang: "My king can rest assured, the time will always come, and my Qin State can't stand it, and Zhao State can't stand it, right now Li Bing's father and son are in Shuzhong, only among them, there is a lot of food, which can support my Qin State and Zhao State to fight a war of attrition"

"How long is it going to last?" Wang asked.

The two courtiers looked at each other, and everyone couldn't say how long, but there was one thing that could be understood, that is, Shu Dao was difficult......

Receiving the royal order from Xianyang Palace, Li Bingtong Erlang in Shuzhong began to gather the people, everyone knows that such a large amount of food, not a day can be sent back to Xianyang, the soldiers of the Qin State need to eat and drink, and the 300,000 Qin army needs a lot of food to fight a war of attrition.

The grain in Shu means the pattern of the world, and the winner of Qin and Zhao will reign over the princes.

Hearing that Daqin was going to compete with Zhao State, the simple people of Shu collected a large amount of grain and grass, and raised it in the fastest time, ready to transport it to Xianyang Palace, but at this time, although there was no enemy army on the way from Shuzhong to Xianyang, it was relatively smooth, but the road was difficult to drive, so everything only relied on the simple people.

Li Bing was anxious, but everyone was full of confidence to support Li Bing's father and son, everyone Qichen overnight, and soon came to Shu Dao, Shu Dao is difficult, but it is not a simple matter to transport baggage.

Li Bing looked at the people, and Erlang firmly believed that his father could do it: "At present, the difficulties of the Qin State are no different from the Shu Road, the army is difficult to be stubborn with the enemy, and the difficulty is the safety of food, so father, we will definitely overcome the difficulties and send food to the soldiers on the front line."

Li Bing nodded, his eyes full of affection: "My Great Qin Empire has experienced countless ups and downs, how many old Qin people have sacrificed in it, and everyone has gambled their dreams and hopes on the present, so what I am transporting is not only grain and grass, but also the hope of the Qin State for generations."

In Handan, Ying Zheng and a few children caught frogs in the field, and it happened that at this time, a snake was hidden in it, maybe everyone didn't know, this hidden threat existed, I don't know why, there are few snakes in the field, but how did they not attack humans.

Now the snake is inexplicably eyeing Ying Zheng, who is catching frogs, maybe the reason is the frog, but in any case, Ying Zheng is too close to danger at the moment.

"Ahh

With a scream, we found out that the person who was bitten at this time was not Ying Zheng, a child named Zhao Gao, who helped Ying Zheng block the snake's attack.

"You! You saved me," Ying Zheng asked.

I saw that the snake left after biting, and Zhao Gao covered his ass and jumped on the spot, fortunately, there were no poisonous snakes here, otherwise there would be no follow-up to Zhao Gao who let the Great Qin Empire perish in the future, so at the moment, Zhao Gao just covered his ass and shouted: "My father said that you are the future king, and it is Zhao Gao's honor to be able to block the danger for the king...... Ouch hey, it hurts! ”

Seeing Zhao Gao's painful expression, Ying Zheng was very worried, but then Zhao Gao said: "It's okay my king, this snake is not poisonous, I won't die, remember to let me follow you in the future, so that I can have no worries about food and clothing."

Seeing that Zhao Gao is not very old, he has a lot of ideas, of course, although Ying Zheng doesn't understand what Zhao Gao said strangely, so he is confused, and at this time, Zhao Gao's identity is just a little beggar.
