Soldiers, treacherous ways.

Therefore, it can be shown but cannot be used, it is not used to show it, it is near and it is far away, and it is far away and it is shown to be near.

Daijun, when the city.

Yan generals Qing Qin and Le Cheng, commanding 70,000 elites, came to the city.

As the eastern gateway of Daijun, the city has been besieged by regiments at this time, and even the soldiers who ask for help cannot break through.

Qing Qin was fully armored, holding a bronze sword standing on the chariot, and under the escort of the sword and shield soldiers, he slowly approached the city gate.

On the city wall, the sparse defenders of Zhao State, looking at the boundless Yan army, their faces were a little pale.

Qing Qin arrived at the city and immediately ordered the chariot to stop.

He stood proudly on the chariot and shouted: "The heavenly soldiers have arrived, and when the city is surrounded by our army, when will you wait until you don't surrender at this time?" ”

When General Zhao heard this, he immediately responded: "King Zhao has an order: If we can defend the city for three days, even if we finally surrender to Kaicheng, the family will not be implicated." ”

"If the city is conquered in less than three days, the wife and children of the family will be punished."

"The last general did not dare to resist the heavenly soldiers in vain, but for the sake of the lives of his wife and children, he could only resist desperately for three days."

"If the general has mercy, can you postpone the siege?"

"When the three-day time limit has passed, the last general will definitely open the city gate and hand over the city intact to the general."

When Qing Qin heard this, he was a little hesitant.

Although three days is not a long time, the daily consumption of 70,000 elites is not a small amount.

The most important thing is that Qing Qin is not sure whether the city guard will open the city and surrender three days later.

If you really want to be able to take the city without blood, it can be regarded as winning the first battle, which will definitely greatly boost the morale of the Yan army.

Thinking of this, Qing Qin immediately shouted: "This general is not an unkind person, and it is okay to give you three days." ”

"However, after three days, if you still refuse to surrender, when the city is broken, there will be no chickens and dogs left in the city!"

General Zhao was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "When the city soldiers are few and far between, how dare you deceive the general." ”

"As long as the three-day time limit has passed, the last general will inevitably open the city and surrender in person."

In this way, Qing Qin led the Yan army to retreat, waiting for three days to take the city without blood.

Lecheng, who was rectifying the rear army, got the news, but hurriedly met Qing Qin.

"General, when our army first arrived, the momentum was in full swing, and there were not many defenders in the city, so one blow was enough to capture it."

"Wouldn't meeting with him for three days now drain the spirit of our army?"

"What if Zhao General doesn't open the city and surrender in three days!"

When Qing Qin heard this, his heart sank slightly.

He is a person close to Yan Xiang, and his ability to command troops is not as good as that of the two brothers Lejian and Lecheng.

Qing Qin only thought of threatening the lives of the whole city, so that General Zhao would not dare to break his promise.

He didn't expect that now the Yan State is attacking Zhao with all the strength of the country, and it is in full swing, and it almost has the potential to destroy the withering and decaying.

One blow of strength, then decline, three and exhaustion.

Although the Yan army only stayed in the city for three days, it was also able to greatly dissipate the spirit of the Yan army.

Although Qing Qin secretly regretted it in his heart, he also had a very good face, and immediately said unhappily: "The king attacked Zhao with all his strength, not to get the territory of Zhao that has become a ruin. ”

"If you can capture the cities of Zhao without blood, you can not only avoid a deep hatred with the people of Zhao, but also lay the foundation for ruling these cities in the future."

"Compared with these, what is it enough to wait for three days?"

When Le Cheng heard this, he was immediately furious and walked away.

Le Cheng, who returned to his camp, said indignantly to the left and right: "This battle has not yet been decided, then Qing Qin will consider himself the winner, so careless to the enemy, is it the way to general!" ”

At the same time, Yan Xiang Libei was also the commander of the 400,000 Yan army, killing the hinterland of Zhao State.

The chestnut belly set out from Yangcheng, and the Zhao army saw that the Yan army was strong, so they either opened the city and surrendered, or fled from the wind. So much so that within a few days, the Yan army even went down to the five cities of Wangdu, Qingdu, Zhongren, Xinchu, and An.

Since then, the cities east of Koushui have been included in the Yan Kingdom.

The camp tent of the commander of the Yan army.

Chestnut belly sat on the main seat, and many swallows were divided into two strategies, and everyone had a smile on their faces.

"Xiangguo has five cities in a row, and the Zhao people are terrified and irresistible, which is really a great achievement, and it is gratifying."

Youyan will speak, and his words are extremely flattering.

Now he has 400,000 troops in command, and if he can capture Zhao State, his achievements will even surpass that of Le Yi, a famous general of Yan State.

It is precisely for this reason that these swallow generals will try their best to please the chestnut belly.

The chestnut belly is full of spring breeze.

However, he still said: "Zhao is a place of four wars, and the people have long been accustomed to war, so they should not be humiliated." ”

"We won the first battle because Zhao Guo rushed to the battle and had not yet assembled the army."

"Besides, Lian Po is a famous general in the world, although we win for a while, we must not be careless."

The battle of Yan and Zhao is related to the national fortunes of both sides.

Chestnut belly is the initiator of this war, and victory will take off for nine days, and his name will be remembered for eternity.

If this battle is lost, the chestnut belly will be ruined and discredited, and the stench will be left for 10,000 years.

Even if he doesn't think about the interests of Yan State, Li Belly must be extremely cautious and steadily capture most of the territory of Yan State.

When the generals of the Yan Kingdom heard this, their faces also showed solemn expressions.

Zhao has been known for its bravery and good at fighting since the Zhao Wuling King Hufu rode and archery, and there have been several wars between Yan and Zhao before.

It is a pity that every time a war breaks out between the two sides, it ends in the defeat of the Yan State.

For the bravery and good fighting of the Zhao people, these generals of the Yan Kingdom also have a deep memory and dare not underestimate them.

If it weren't for the fact that Zhao experienced the defeat of Changping, and the adult men were almost killed and injured, these Yan generals would never agree, and Yan would have killed Zhao with all the strength of the country.

However, there are still people who say: "Xiangguo doesn't need to worry too much. ”

"In the past, Xiangguo went to Handan, and I also saw that most of the women and children in Zhao were old, weak, and children, but now there are five cities in Lianke, and there are almost no prime people in the city."

"In this way, how can Zhao Guo compete with my Dayan?"

"This time, Xiangguo will definitely be able to command our Yan army to break through the Zhao State and obtain immortal meritorious service."

When the rest of the Zhao generals heard this, they also came to their senses and complied.

Before the start of the battle, these generals were still a little worried that this attack on Zhao would be met with fierce resistance.

However, after seeing that adult men were indeed extremely rare in the territory of Zhao Kingdom, these Yan generals were relieved.

Although the chestnut belly bowed slightly, he still did not completely relax his vigilance in his heart.

He spoke: "Of the five cities we have captured this time, except for Wangdu, the rest are all small cities. ”

"Even Wangdu is unsafe, and being able to take it easily doesn't mean anything."

Chestnut looked around at the generals, and said with a solemn face: "But next, there may be a tough battle to fight." ”

When the generals heard this, their faces became serious.

The Yan State had taken the city of Zhao to the east of Koushui, and if it wanted to continue its westward advance, it would have to capture Guyi.

Gu Yi is not as good as others, but it is a heavy city of Zhao State.

Guyi is not only a tall city with a large population, but its terrain is also surrounded by mountains and rivers, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

The defenders of Gu Yi and Zhao are not a few.

The most important thing is that Li Bei has received news that Gu Yi's guard general is Zhao Jia, the eldest grandson of King Zhao.
