Chapter 150: Breaking Handan and Destroying Zhao State

Previous Chapter

"Congratulations! Five doctors, the king worships you as a general, and conquers Handan. When Wang Ji heard that Qin Wangji had handed over the conquest of Handan to Wang Ling, he came to the mansion to congratulate him.

Wang Ling did not hear joy from the other party's words, but felt that the other party was laughing at him. Wang Ling thought that he could replace Wu Anjun and Wang Yi and lead the troops to the battle, and he didn't care about these things.

Wang Ling stretched out his arms, showed great generosity, and said with a smile: "My ability to use troops is far less than that of Zuo Shuchang. Zuo Shu, please advise. ”

When Wang Ji saw that the catastrophe of Wang Ling was coming, he was so happy that he didn't know whether to remind him or not. Go ahead! The other party will think that he is jealous of him. Don't talk about it! I feel that I have failed each other's friendship.

Seeing that Wang Di didn't speak, Wang Ling invited: "Zuo Shuchang, why don't we attack Handan together." You are the general, I am the lieutenant. ”

Wang Yi waved his hand and said, "Attack Handan, I won't go." ”

Wang Ling knew that the other party would refuse, and he was also prepared in his heart. When he heard this, he was still stunned for a moment, and asked in a joking way: "Chief Zuo resents me for robbing you of your credit." ”

"How could I hate you." Wang Di's face was a little unhappy, and he let out a sigh, "You also underestimate me too much." ”

Wang Ling couldn't figure out whether the other party's words were true or false, and smiled, "I'm just joking." Zuo Shuchang, don't take it to heart. ”

Wang Yi didn't take this sentence seriously, and asked: "The king ordered me to conquer Handan and asked me how many soldiers and horses I wanted." You know, how much I said. ”

Wang Ling naturally knew about these things, and stretched out four fingers, "Four hundred thousand." ”

Wang Yu asked, "You know, why I say this number. ”

"Of course, you are too cautious and too timid in your use of soldiers." Wang Ling thought so in his heart, but asked on his lips: "Why." ”

"The conquest of Handan is not a good errand. Many people can't hide, so it's better for you to rise to the challenge. Wang Yi smiled bitterly: "You really think that Handan of Zhao is so easy to fight, and Zhao Guojunchen is easy to bully." ”

Wang Ling spread his hands and said, "Isn't it? ”

"Zhao is good at fighting, which is caused by the people's customs. The people of Zhao State, regardless of women, children, old and young, can be soldiers. Wang Yi deliberately stopped, and said: "Our Changping killed 450,000 Zhao soldiers, and Zhao has fathers, sons, and brothers, who died fighting for the country." The monarchs and ministers of Zhao State and the people hate us so much, according to Zhao Shu's character, will they not avenge them. ”

Wang Ling said coldly: "If Zhao Zu dares to fight, I will destroy him." I will want Handan, the blood is like a river, and the chickens and dogs will not be left. ”

"As the saying goes, the mourning soldier wins. Everyone in Handan wants to avenge the dead. When we go to attack Handan at this time, not only will we not be able to crush their morale, but we will also let them share the same hatred and go to the national disaster together. Seeing that the other party had not yet realized the difficulty of conquering Handan at this time, Wang Yi said one more thing, "Do you think we can win?" ”

Wang Lingcai didn't want to think so much, clenched his fists, and said in an uncontrollable tone: "I am the mighty master of Great Qin, who can stop it." It's just Handan, and I'll be able to take it. The eldest husband must make a name for himself and seek fame. ”

Seeing that Wang Ling thought about the problem too simply, Wang Yi shook his head and said: "Make a name for yourself and seek fame, who doesn't want a husband." Have you ever wondered how many people can achieve these eight words? ”

When Wang Ling heard this, he was a little unhappy and said: "Zuo Shuchang, what does this sentence mean." ”

Wang Yu asked: "The king asked Wu Anjun to go on the expedition, why did Wu Anjun refuse to accept the order." Have you ever thought about this question? ”

Wang Lingchang said with a smile: "Wu Anjun wanted to take the opportunity to attack Handan and killed the Zhao State. Wang Shang, Qin Xiang and Zhao Guo negotiated peace, which chilled Wu Anjun's heart. Wu Anjun has an arrogant personality, and the king asked him to lead the troops to attack Zhao, so he naturally refused to accept the order. ”

Wang Yi shook his head and said lightly: "You! Thinking like this, I missaw Wu Anjun. ”

"Wang, Ying Hou, and Wu Anjun, the contradiction between these three people. Up and down the Qin State, no one knows. Wang Ling still insisted on his opinion, "Am I wrong?" ”

Wang Yi didn't expect the other party to look at the problem, only looking at the surface, but ignoring the fundamentals, and sighed: "The king stopped the expedition to Handan and negotiated peace with Zhao Guo, which really made Wu Anjun feel cold. However, you only know one thing, but you don't know the other. If you think of Wu Anjun like this, you are very wrong. ”

"Oh." Wang Ling saw that Wang Di intended to defend Wu Anjun, and asked curiously, "What is the second one?" Please tell me what I did wrong. ”

"The king's order to stop the expedition to Handan, Wu Anjun was angry. Wu Anjun is not angry, that is impossible. Wang Yi breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "However, Wu Anjun regards military merit as his life. What a great credit to the destruction of Handan and the destruction of Zhao State. Wu Anjun refused to accept the order, is this Wu Anjun's character? ”

Wang Ling thought about it and felt that this was indeed not Wu Anjun's character. Whether it is the battle of Yique, the defeat of Han and Wei. Or go south to break the Chu capital and dig the Chu Tomb. Or the battle of Huayang, breaking Wei and Zhao. Now, in the Battle of Changping, another 450,000 Zhao soldiers were killed. Wu Anjun broke Handan again and died in Zhao State. His achievements are far better than any famous general. The voice of his famous generals will be passed down through the ages and admired by future generations.

However, why did Wu Anjun refuse.

Seeing that Wang Ling was deep in thought, his eyebrows moved slightly, and he knew that the other party had thought of the reason, and said in a relaxed tone: "I don't say it, you have already thought of it." ”

Wang Ling swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked, "Could it be Handan, it's really hard to fight." ”

Wang Yi nodded and said, "I can't beat it." ”

Wang Ling was a little flustered and said, "Why can't you beat it?" ”

"It is not bad that Zhao Changping was killed by us 450,000 soldiers, but the situation in Handan of Zhao has not been turbulent, and its merchants and people have not fled in large numbers. This shows that the monarchs and ministers of Zhao have stabilized the morale of the army. Wang Di paused, and then said: "King Zhao promised to cut six cities, pay five cars, and make peace with us." As a result, Zhao Guoxian humiliated our envoys, humiliated our king, and declared war to my king. Zhao Guo didn't have the strength to fight, how could he do such stupid things. ”

"Even so, Zhao Shu can't compare to my Great Qin Division." Wang Ling said with confidence: "I have 200,000 male soldiers, can't I capture Handan?" ”

"Handan, this city, through Zhao Jinghou, Zhao Chenghou, Zhao Suhou, Zhao Wuling Wang, Zhao Huicheng Wang and Zhao Wang Dan, has gone through six generations of merit, its city is wide, tall, and won the hearts of the people. The whole country of Zhao is united, they hate us and kill their fathers, sons, and brothers. They share the same hatred and go to the national disaster together, and they are really so easy to fight. Wang Yi said again: "The Battle of Changping is so tragic, doesn't it explain Zhao Shu's combat effectiveness." ”

Wang Ling shouted: "If the Wei State can break Handan, the Qin State can do the same." ”

"Wei has a world-famous general, Pang Juan, and the foundation of the overlord. At that time, King Wei Hui was also ambitious and wanted to unify the three Jins. Wei fought Handan, and it was so difficult. What was the outcome of this battle? ”

"How."

"The princes took advantage of the defeat of Wei and Zhao and took advantage of the weakness. The overlord of Wei also began to waver. The Zhao family went through the Handan catastrophe, and the Marquis of Zhao Su and King Wuling of Zhao led the Zhao family to the top. King Zhao Huiwen fought against the princes, winning more and losing less. The state of Qin also suffered his loss. Wang Yi smiled and said, "You really bully Zhao Guo and no one cares?" ”

Seeing the other party's words, Wang Ling couldn't get along with himself everywhere, snorted coldly, and asked, "What is the intention of Zuo Shuchang to elevate the Zhao State and belittle the Qin State." ”

Seeing that the other party was too competitive and earnest, Wang Yi looked down on Zhao Guo, "It's not me to belittle Qin and raise Zhao Guo." The Zhao boy is even stronger than we imagined. ”

Wang Ling reminded: "Don't forget that the battle of Changping was won by us. ”

Wang Yi showed sadness, "We won, and we won very badly." ”

Wang Ling said loudly: "War always has to pay a price. As long as you can win, sacrifice is inevitable. ”

"Daqin has been in the past forty years, how can he have lost so many men." Seeing that he couldn't answer, Wang Yi said: "Don't forget, Handan is not only operated by the six generations of monarchs of the Zhao family. Zhao Wangdan is not a mediocre and timid person. In the country of Zhao, there are also famous generals such as Du Changjun, Lian Po, Xu Li, Lou Chang, and the rising stars and generals such as Le Cheng and Yan Song, as well as the soldiers of the Great Wall in the north of Zhao State. There are also capable ministers such as Pingyuan Jun and Yu Qing. If you want to break Handan and destroy the Zhao country, how difficult it is. ”

Wang Ling thought about it for a while, and also felt that what Wang Di said was good, and said in horror: "Wu Anjun refused to accept the order and led the army to the battle, because he thought that he couldn't take Handan." ”

Wang Yi nodded, "The monarchs and ministers of Zhao State are united as one. King Zhao is not stupid, and there are famous generals and virtuous ministers to assist. If you want to break Handan and destroy the Zhao Kingdom, how can it be so easy. Wu Anjun has fought all his life, how can he not understand. Wu Anjun didn't want his wisdom to bury Handan. ”

Wang Ling thought about it and felt that it was wrong, and asked: "Handan is not easy to fight, why did Wu Anjun take Changping, and the troops were divided into three ways and went straight to Handan?" ”

Wang Yi had already thought about this question and replied directly: "The matter of conquest is about timing. We took Changping and killed Zhao Zu, but the monarchs and ministers of Zhao have not yet reacted. We go straight to Handan, maybe we can really break Handan and destroy Zhao State. However, the fighter plane was fleeting. Zhao dared to refuse, ceded the land, paid compensation, and started a war with us. Handan, it's really hard to fight. ”

Wang Ling arched his hand and said gratefully: "Listening to Zuo Shuchang's words, I finally understand." Why did Wu Anjun refuse to accept the order, lead the army to the expedition, attack Handan, and make another meritorious deed. ”

Seeing that the other party said this, Wang Yi understood his intentions, and said with a sigh of relief: "This is the reason why I proposed 400,000 to kill Zhao." That's why I came to see you. ”

Wang Ling understood, and said with a somewhat flustered expression: "Then what should I do." ”

"The king has issued an edict to attack Handan. The edict cannot be changed, and it is imperative to cut down Handan. Wang Ji sighed and said, "You have caused your own trouble, go and clean it up yourself." ”

"I can't take Handan, isn't the king..." The more Wang Ling thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he couldn't say the rest of the words.

"You can rest assured and boldly go to Handan and carry out the king's military orders." Wang Yi comforted: "If you can't take Handan, it will be difficult to fight." For the sake of face, the king will also increase his troops to help you. If you still can't take Handan, the king will let someone replace you. Just like Changping, the king replaced me with Wu Anjun. ”

"Zuo Shuchang means that if I don't attack Handan, the king will force Wu Anjun to fight."

Wang Ji said: "Yes." ”

"With Zuo Shuchang's words, and Wu Anjun as the backing." Wang Ling breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'll fight with Zhao Guo first." ”

The next day, the morning sun rose. In Xianyang, Qin, the drums beat loudly. The soldiers of the Qin State are dressed up and neatly groomed. Flags are flying, and swords are numerous. The sun shone on the blades, glowing coldly. Just after the sound of the three-way drum, Qin Wangji ascended the high platform and worshiped the heavens and the earth. After Qin Wangji finished reading the oath, he turned around and inspected the three armies.

Qin Jun shouted: "Long live the Qin State, long live the king." ”

The voices of hundreds of thousands of people rang out in unison, resounding throughout the world.

Qin Wangji raised his arm upward, and the audience was silent. Qin Wangji shouted: "The state of Zhao is treacherous in the front, and the humiliation of the widow is in the back." This revenge must be avenged. ”

"Kill, kill, kill."

"The widow takes Wang Ling as the general, commands the Er, etc., breaks Handan, dies the Zhao State, raises the prestige of the Qin State, and shames the snow widow."

"Kill, kill, kill."

Qin Wangji shouted: "God bless the Qin State, this battle will be won." ”

"God bless the Qin State, this battle will be won."

"The widow prepares the wine and waits for the son to break Zhao Xue's shame."

"We will live up to Wang En and break Zhao Xue's shame."

"Break Handan, destroy Zhao State." Seeing that the morale of the generals of the three armies was high, and the morale of all the soldiers was high, Qin Wangji drew his long sword and shouted: "Go on the expedition." ”
