Lian Po hesitated.

To be honest, the current situation is very obvious, as long as the direction of Bai Qi's main attack can be judged, then Lian Po will be able to block this attack of the Qin army in time and thwart the Qin army's plot.

You must know that the reason why the Qin army is launching a fierce offensive at the same time at the expense of casualties in multiple directions is obviously to confuse the Zhao army, so that the Zhao army cannot distinguish the real direction of the main attack.

This method of warfare is exactly the same as the tactics used by Bai Qi to defeat the Han and Wei coalition forces in the Battle of Yique that year.

However, as the so-called advantages have disadvantages, such tactics also have disadvantages, that is, because the feints on various fronts are desperate real attacks, so once this wave of offensive is blocked, the number of casualties will be far beyond imagination, and it will definitely be a major loss.

Therefore, Lian Po knew very well in his heart that as long as he could judge the true direction of the Qin people's main attack, then at least in this battle tonight, the Zhao army would overwhelm the Qin army!

Lian Po began to think about this question.

In this war, if the Qin army wanted to break through the Changping defense line of the Zhao army and enter the Shangdang Basin, there were only two roads to choose from, one was Changping Pass, and the other was Guguan.

Lian Po almost didn't think about it, so he listed the passage of Changping Pass as a target that Bai Qi could not attack.

There are a total of five mountains around Changping Pass, namely Danzhuling in the west, Xiangong Mountain in the northwest, Yaoshan Mountain in the north, and Yangtou Mountain and Hanwang Mountain in the southeast.

Of these five mountains, only Danzhuling and Xiangong Mountain were under the control of the Qin army, and the remaining three mountains were under the control of the Zhao army.

Moreover, Danzhuling and Xiangong Mountain were once part of the first line of defense set up by the Zhao army in the early days of Changping, and Lian Po also went to investigate on the spot, the terrain of this place is extremely precipitous, all of which are extremely narrow and narrow roads for only one person, and the horses and chariots and other baggage are completely impassable, and there are no conditions for large-scale mobilization of troops.

Moreover, there are a full 5,000 Zhao soldiers defending Changping Pass, and there is a complete set of vigilance and defense system around Changping Pass, Lian Po is very confident that even if the legendary Qin Ruishi appears, it is impossible for hundreds of Qin Ruishi to break through Changping Pass through the path of Xiangong Mountain from behind.

And if the Qin army attacks Changping Pass from the front, then it must attack from the south bank of the Dan River.

In this way, the Qin people had to face the defense of Zhao Leibi on the north bank of the Dan River, and with the advantage of the vision brought by the condescending views of Daliangshan and Hanwang Mountain, the Zhao army had enough time to gain insight into the Qin army's mobilization and deployment.

Although there is no response from Changpingguan now, Changpingguan is twenty or thirty miles away from Daliangshan after all, so it is very normal that there is no response for a while, and Lian Po did not take this to heart.

Since it is not Changping Pass, then of course it is the old pass.

Therefore, for the Zhao army in the Changping battlefield, it is undoubtedly extremely important, and it can even be said to be the most important back road.

Because Guguan is located directly behind the three major strongholds of the Zhao army, Hanwangshan, Hyunshi City and Daliangshan, as long as Guguan falls, then the back road of the entire frontline Zhao army will be cut off.

Once the old pass falls, then the 450,000 Zhao army will completely become a turtle in the urn, and will be completely besieged in the vast battlefield on the north bank of the Dan River, with no way to go to the sky and no door to enter the ground!

Lian Po's face wrinkled slightly, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.

Bai Qi's offensive direction must be the old pass!

In fact, Lian Po is not the only one who made this judgment.

In the secret letter from Handan, Zhao Dan, the current monarch of Zhao State, once reminded Lian Po not to attack easily, otherwise he might be lured away from Daliangshan by Bai Qi with a fraudulent defeat.

Then the Qin army will surprise the Hyun City and seize the Xiaodongcang River Valley, thus cutting off the passage of the old pass and completely encircling the Zhao army on the line of Hanwang Mountain.

The reason why Zhao Dan reminded him so much was because in the Battle of Changping in history, Zhao Kuo was defeated in the hands of Bai Qi like this!

Of course, Lian Po didn't know the hidden secrets behind Zhao Dan's letters, and at this moment he was just making judgments based on the years of experience and thinking of a famous general.

If you want to attack the old pass, then the first thing to do is to break through the defense line of Zhao Leibi, and then there are two ways to go, namely the small Dongcang River Valley and the Dadongcang River Valley.

These two river valleys are distributed on the north and south sides of Daliang Mountain, where Lian Po is located at this moment.

On the north side is the Xiaodongcang River Valley, the Xiaodongcang River Valley is located between the three major strongholds of the Zhao army, Hyunshi City, Hanwang Mountain and Daliang Mountain, which is the focus of the Zhao army's defense, most of the Zhao army's forces are deployed in these three strongholds, and it belongs to the strongest defensive force in the entire frontal defense line of the Zhao army, and can mobilize the largest number of reinforcements in a short time.

If you think about it in a normal person's mind, it is obvious that it is impossible for Bai Qi to choose this most difficult place as the main direction of attack.

That being the case, then there is only one last possibility.

The Dadongcang River Valley on the south side of Daliang Mountain.

Although the Dadongcang River Valley is also close to Daliangshan and Hyun City, this is the flank of the Zhao army after all, and the garrison force is obviously slightly weaker.

Directly opposite Daliang Mountain, that is, on the south bank of the Dan River, there is a mountain slightly lower than Daliang Mountain, called Niu Mountain.

Due to the presence of Niu Mountain to block the view, the Qin army could quietly transfer troops through the passage behind Niu Mountain and break through the defense line of the Dadongcang River Valley in one fell swoop.

As long as it can break through the Dadongcang River Valley, then the Qin army can bypass the Guanling Mountains from the road along the Daliang Mountain to take the old pass, and it can also cut off the back road of the Zhao army and realize the grand strategy of encircling the Zhao army.

In fact, at the beginning, Lian Po didn't believe that Bai Qi had the courage to dare to surround the 450,000 Zhao army in one fell swoop.

But under Zhao Dan's harsh words, Lian Po had to make such psychological preparations and coping plans.

And judging from the current situation, it is really not impossible for the Qin army to surround the Zhao army.

If it really came to that time, Lian Po and the 450,000 Zhao troops under his command wanted to break through, either desperately to recapture the old pass, or they were risking to break through from the Danzhuling controlled by the Qin army in the direction of the west.

But these two paths are nine deaths and one life!

Of course, the situation facing Zhao Jun has not deteriorated to that point, and these are just Lian Po's personal ideas.

As long as the Zhao army holds the defensive line steadily, then these extremely bad situations will not happen.

As long as the Qin army can't break through the defense line of Zhao Leibi, then all plans to encircle and destroy the Zhao army are all floating clouds.

Lian Po took a deep breath and raised his head.

The night breeze was slightly cool, and the wisps brushed the old general's face, but at this moment, Lian Po's heart was hot.

Right under Lian Po's eyes, tens of thousands of soldiers from both sides of Qin and Zhao were fighting fiercely, shouting, the flames soared into the sky, and the sound of killing filled his ears.

"Dadongcang River? If you start in vain, you won't succeed! ”
