Chapter 408 [Bai Qi Makes a Move]

The sober-minded generals of the Zhao army paid attention to the Pingyang Jun and Zhao Bao's several fires since he took office, and they all saw the essence of this Pingyang Jun, that is, Jin Yu, and his external defeat, which was elegant, that is, he was ambitious, he was sparse and ambitious, and he could not achieve great things.

In the face of the Qin army's war, Zhao Bao immediately launched a response, he believed that he could not just wait for the Qin people to come to the door to challenge, and should also learn from the Qin people to attack the Qin army's barriers, only in this way can the Zhao army's spirit be guaranteed.

Most of the walls of the Warring States period were made of rammed earth, and they were surrounded on all sides as a position for attack and retreat, which was actually a simple earthen castle.

Ramming technology is a basic construction technology, first dig out the wall foundation on the ground, and then use wooden planks to clamp into a Cao box between the columns, fill the soil layer by layer, and tamp layer by layer, after removing the wooden plank, it becomes a section of earth wall, and then replace the wooden plank upwards in turn, and a wall will soon stand up.

These tasks were done by soldiers who participated in the battle, because there was no such thing as an engineer at that time, so the soldiers who participated in the war knew the composition of the barrier, and every battle would do some damage to the barrier.

The Zhao army, under the command of one of Zhao Bao's close officers, swarmed up, and after the archers lined up in rows and shouted the order to suppress the Qin army on the wall, the Zhao soldiers rushed to the bottom of the wall, climbing up the wall with a temporarily tied wooden ladder, and destroying the Qin army's wall with digging tools.

Although the barrier was not too high, it created an insurmountable obstacle to the Zhao army's attack, and the stubborn resistance of the Qin army at this barrier prevented the Zhao army from making progress.

Although Lian Po was standing in the camp in the distance, he could still hear the sound of killing, and he could see the blood light flashing from time to time, and he felt very sad in his heart that Zhao Bao took the lives of Zhao soldiers to make worthless military operations.

Lian Po has a clear understanding of the combat power of the Qin army, and there is a general distinction between the soldiers of the world, the technical warriors of the Qi State, the warriors of the Wei State, the warriors of the Qin State, of course, the soldiers of the Zhao State, the soldiers of the Hundred Gold Soldiers, the Warriors of the Qi State cannot resist the warriors of the Wei State, and the warriors of the Wei State cannot stop the warriors of the Qin State, and only the soldiers of the Zhao State can compete with the Qin army, but that is also a limited number of elite soldiers.

In the Battle of Snowy Night, the elite of the Zhao army suffered many casualties, and most of these reinforcements brought by Zhao Bao were soldiers who had not experienced the baptism of battle formation, how could the sharp soldiers of the Qin army win with these soldiers! If you can't hold on, maybe there will be a chance, and if you take the initiative, you won't know how to die if you are afraid of death.

Zhao Kuo stood on another high ground and watched the attack of the Zhao army, Zhao Kuo could see that the Qin army in the opposite camp was good at attacking and fighting, and the field troops were not good at defending the city, but the Qin generals on the opposite side obviously had some skills, the command was orderly, the generals were steady and calm, and the soldiers were brave and tenacious, which was very difficult to deal with.

The sound of war drums shook the sky, arrows flew like rain, Qin and Zhao constantly had soldiers fall, and the dead and wounded of the Zhao army were often thrown off the barrier by the Qin army and trampled by their own people.

The generals of the Zhao army waved the banners in their hands again and again, and the sound of war drums did not stop at all, echoing in the mountains, the Zhao army had organized three strong attacks, but they still had no choice but to give up the lives of thousands of Zhao soldiers in vain.

A month later, in the Qin army's base camp, the air in the military tent was unusually silent, and the solemn guards were motionless, except for the footsteps of the military newspapers coming and going and the hooves of the horses, they could only hear the cheering of the handsome flags flying outside the tent.

Bai Qi already knew the latest movements of the Zhao army, Zhao Guo chose to replace the main generals Zhao Kuo and Lian Po again, and had lost the dominance of the Changping Zhao army, in exchange for Pingyang Jun, Zhao Bao and general Lou Chang, is this a favorable opportunity for the Qin army to attack on a large scale?

Bai Qi was thinking about this problem, he held the hilt of his saber tightly, although it was cold and abnormal, but there was still a layer of sweat in his palm, which showed the tension in his heart.

"Your Majesty, General Sima, is already outside the tent, and the 18,000 elite cavalry of our army are also ready." A staff officer came to Bai Qi's side and said.

Bai Qi walked out of the big tent, only to see that Sima Terrier had been draped neatly, the helmet was bright, and the war horse led by Liang Liang snorted continuously, looking irritable, and the horse's hooves kept treading, and two shallow pits were dug out by it on the ground.

Sima Terrier, who turned into one eye, was even more evil, and his appearance was a bit like a ferocious pirate, seeing Bai Qi walk out of the big tent, Sima Terrier knelt down on the ground and said: "Your Excellency, Sima Terrier is ready." ”

Bai Qiqi nodded and said: "I only tell you one word, avoid Zhao Kuo's edge, Zhao Kuo has now been transferred to the pass, it is not the focus of the strategy, let him stay there, okay, if he dares to make a slight move, this gentleman will personally accompany him." ”

Sima Terrier stared at Bai Qi tightly, and saw Bai Qi wave his hand vigorously, his remaining eyes immediately lit up, hurriedly bowed, and then turned over, jumped on horseback, galloped on horseback, and then all 18,000 elite cavalry of the Qin army set out, and the horses' hooves trampled and shook the earth, sweeping into the distance like thunder.

Bai Qi's battle plan for Zhao Bao and Lou Chang has been brewing in his heart for a long time, and the reason why he did not implement it soon is because he was afraid that Zhao Kuo and Lian would get in the way, and now Zhao Kuo has been transferred to defense, so Guan Pass Lian is quite in charge of Zhao Jun's baggage, these two difficult opponents have lost most of their military power, Zhao Jun is equivalent to a toothless tiger, if he does not take advantage of this time to give Zhao Jun a powerful blow, then he is not Wu Anjun Bai Qi.

The first thing Bai had to do was to divide the Zhao army, separate Zhao Bao and Lou Chang, these two people would not be good in the first place, and if they were separated, they would be easier to be eaten by the Qin army, once the Zhao army was divided, even if the matter was urgent, Ke Lian Po and Zhao Kuo would not be able to immediately obtain military power, and the Qin army could break Zhao Bao and Lou Chang in a limited time, and the battle of Changping would end in the victory of the Qin army.

The faint sunlight and swirling clouds of Taihang Mountain shrouded the land of Changping, and it has been so quiet here for thousands of years, but today the mountains and rivers here are shrouded in an unprecedented frenzy, and the banners of the Qin army are fluttering everywhere on the sandy land on the mountains and riversides, and the reflection of the sun is particularly dazzling.

Sima Terrier's nearly 20,000 elite cavalry was sweeping through the vast Changping River Road with lightning speed, interspersed between the gaps in the Zhao army's barriers.

Sima Terrier's cavalry quickly smashed the Zhao army's fortifications near Changpingshui, and left 3,000 cavalry to patrol here back and forth, with the intention of cutting off the connection between the Zhao army on both sides of Changpingshui.

Located in Hexi is Lou Chang's military camp, Lou Chang in order to show his ability, it was not easy to ask for the military power of the Zhao army's Hexi camp from Zhao Bao, and wanted to do a big job, but he didn't expect to be caught off guard by the Qin army when he was dreaming, although Lou Chang couldn't do it, but he also knew that once his army and Zhao Bao's main force of the Zhao army could not be contacted, the situation would be very grim.

Lou Chang immediately sent 10,000 troops to try to wade through the water and get in touch with Zhao's army, the main force of Zhao Bao, but this attempt was quickly crushed by the cavalry of the Qin army.

Sima Terrier's cavalry has been equipped with the sharpest weapon a month ago, the big crossbow, this big crossbow has a range of several times that of the small crossbow, although it is slightly bulky, but the cavalry has a war horse to rely on, and it is easy to use, at that time there was an argument that the world's strong bows and crossbows are all from South Korea, South Korea has a great advantage in weapon manufacturing, but the Qin army is equipped with this kind of crossbow has far exceeded the manufacturing level of South Korea.

In the face of the powerful crossbow, the casualties of the Zhao army in Hexi suddenly became heavy, and many Zhao troops were shot and killed on the way when they tried to retreat to Hexi, and a corpse was soaked in the river water, so that the river quickly turned pale red and slowly drifted downstream. "Let's read the literature network together, please support genuine reading, support the author's creation, and warm my entire code word life with a light click."

Besides, Sima Terrier led the cavalry to sweep through the position of the Zhao army like a storm, and seized the granary of the Zhao army in Elkshan, this time the Qin army attacked the granary of Elk Mountain for the second time, and this time the Qin army was obviously prepared, and soon a fire burned the granary of Elkshan, of course, Sima Terrier also left some grain and rice for his own people and horses to eat, and led the army to intersperse the Changping Shuichuan Road from time to time.

After Zhao Bao learned the news, he was extremely frightened and annoyed, and scolded Lou Chang for his ineffective command, and actually allowed the Qin army to break through the defense line of Changpingchuan Road, so that the Zhao army in Hexi and Hedong was divided into two parts from one body, and it was no longer possible to echo.

Zhao Bao believed that the top priority was to make the eastern and western Zhao armies join forces to attack the Qin cavalry located near Changpingshui, as long as the Qin cavalry was surrounded, the Zhao army would control the initiative in the battle, and the Qin cavalry would be trapped and killed in the Changpingshui area, so he immediately sent a dead soldier to inform Lou Chang to attack the Qin cavalry.

Sima Terrier remembered that Bai Qi had told him that those who are good at fighting and cutting off many enemies should be separated and unable to save each other, and he is carrying out such a combat mission, which will be very difficult.

Sima Qi is the deputy general of this cavalry, this typical Kansai Han has been in the army for 20 years, and most of the time is under the command of Bai Qi, Sima Qi is better at cavalry combat than Sima Terrier, the cavalry he commanded has been in many battles with surprise and swift combat, brave and unparalleled, which is why Sima Terrier handed over the heavy responsibility of the patrol to him.

Lou Chang received Zhao Bao's order, and was counting the men and horses to prepare for tomorrow's attack, through the thin clouds, the flickering moonlight fell, dyeing the mountains and rivers into a hazy and bleak scene.

Lou Chang's heart was a little bottomless, the Qin army sent troops very quickly this time, and used a fierce attack to seize the small barrier near Changpingshui, this combat method was not recorded in detail in the book of soldiers, which made him feel a strange atmosphere.

When the scouts reported the estimated strength of the Qin people based on the number of Qin army's bonfires, Lou Chang felt that something was wrong and said, "How can there be only four thousand people? The cavalry of the Qin army should be about 10,000, is this the suspicious plan of the Qin army? "Lou Chang once looked at this Qin cavalry from afar, judging by the momentum, it should be around more than 10,000 horsemen.

Lou Chang remembered Sun Bin's plan to reduce the focus in the Battle of Maling, could the Qin army have any insidious attempts to conceal the strength of the troops so much?
