Liu Ji, the king of Liaodong, was very anxious, but he was helpless, now the army of Liaodong was all in the hands of Han Xin, and the main army was in Zhaodi.

Under such circumstances, Liu Ji had no choice but to support the war.

Because Liu Ji knew in his heart that without Han Xin, even if he had hundreds of thousands of troops, it would be impossible to confront the resurgent Great Qin of Western Chu, which was in full swing.

The development of the situation made Liu Ji clearly realize that only Han Xin could make Liaodong rise.

……

In particular, Liu Jike knew the strength of the general Han Xin's control over the army, and because Han Xin was invincible in battle, his prestige in the Liaodong army was second only to him.

Such an elite can only burst out with a real advantage in the hands of Han Xin, and can block the dispatch of troops from Qin and Chu this time.

Because of this, even though Liu Ji was worried about the military power in Han Xin's hands, he had to calm down at the end and show a posture of the general trend.

This is the king!

Although he was unwilling, he still had to pretend to be happy, just to stabilize the hearts of the army and the people.

……

The incident happened suddenly, and the Liaodong ministers were caught off guard, but the matter has come to this point, and they can only resign themselves to fate and make amends on the existing basis.

The civil and military officials in the main hall looked ugly, and one person looked at one after another, and was silent for a long time. The same Xiao He frowned, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

The Manchu Dynasty Wenwu turned his head to look at the entrance of the big tent, waiting for the arrival of Liu Ji, the king of Liaodong.

For them, before Liu Ji's career, they were just a mud leg, but now it is different, because of Liu Ji's career, they are among the princes.

Because of this, these people are extremely sensitive to the Qin-Chu coalition army going north to rescue Zhao, because this is a great impact on their status.

At this time, the chamberlain suddenly raised his voice: "The king has arrived——! ”

With the voice of the chamberlain, Liu Ji, the mentally depressed king of Liaodong, was wearing a red cloak and a balance crown covered by tassels before and after, his face was solemn and his eyes did not squint.

He is doing this today to express his determination to fight to the death.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty stood up one after another and bowed their hands together: "See the king——! ”

Liu Ji nodded his head indifferently, looked around the audience, and stretched out his right hand: "Zhuqing, the lonely general Han Xin is attacking Zhao Di." ”

"Now Hu Hai of Qin State, and Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, each led his army north to save Zhao, which means that I, a country in Liaodong, will face the three kingdoms."

"This battle is war or peace, all of you can publish it!"

……

On the top of the main hall, there was silence for a long time, and Xiao He on the east side solemnly bowed his hand: "Your Majesty, now that our army has entered the Zhao land, Qin and Chu have all sent troops, this battle will never be avoided." ”

Speaking of this, Xiao He paused: "Even if our army withdraws at this moment, the Qin-Chu coalition army will definitely go north to attack my Liaodong." ”

"This time, the general sent troops to Zhao Di, just giving Qin Chu an excuse to attack our country!"

……

After being silent for a while, Liu Ji stretched out his left hand: "Zhou Bo, what do you think about this matter?" ”

Liu Ji was an extremely cautious person, and he knew that most of Xiao He's talent was in governing the locality, and Zhou Bo was a good general.

Now that the war is about to break out, asking Zhou Bo is the right way!

At the same time, Zhou Bo on the west side straightened his chest and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, the minister agrees with the Prime Minister's opinion, no matter what the starting point is, now you must fight!" ”

Generals are like that, simple and straightforward.

Above the main hall, the rest of the ministers looked left and right, but they were all silent, with reserved faces, waiting for Liu Ji's final decision.

Seeing that the civil and military attitudes of the Manchu Dynasty were the same, Liu Ji, the king of Liaodong, coughed lightly, and said majestically: "Qin Chu goes north, destroy my Liaodong heart and don't die, and I decide to fight to the death!" ”

"The prime minister immediately mobilized grain and grass from all over the country as military rations, and at the same time, ordered the craftsman workshop to immediately rush to make weapons and leather armor and transport them to the front."

"No."

"Zhou Bo immediately recruited young people in the country, quickly trained into an army, and was ready to enter the battlefield at any time!"

"No."

……

Watching the ministers leave, Liu Ji felt very uncomfortable. In all fairness, Han Xin's plan is indeed old-fashioned, and it can be described as a thunderbolt from inside and outside for today's Zhao State.

What really made Liu Ji feel uncomfortable was that although Han Xin thought of this strange plan, now the Qin-Chu coalition army went north to rescue Zhao.

In this way, the pressure on the Liaodong State will increase all of a sudden, and one country will compete with the world's first power, the second largest country, and one Zhao State.

Even the self-confidence of Liu Ji, the king of Liaodong, was silent at this time.

……

On the straight, a thousand-man team was galloping northward, gradually entering the valley mouth between the two mountains.

It was just as the sun was setting, and Hu Hai felt a little depressed in the dark and long canyon, which was originally the low part of a mountain range.

Although Hu Hai did not see it with his own eyes, he also knew the manpower and material resources required to do so.

This is also the great Qin where absolute imperial power prevails, and it is impossible for another dynasty to have such a grand occasion.

This valley is located on the south bank of the Yellow River that suddenly folds into an east-west flow, starting from the Kunshan Mountain in the east, passing through the Tianyin Ridge in the middle, and is more than 100 miles long.

"Command the army, continue to speed up, and strive to reach Jiuyuan as soon as possible!" Hu Hai's eyes flashed with solemnity, and he gave an order categorically.

At this time, Hu Hai had an ominous premonition in his heart. He knew that when he got the news from Han Xin and Liaodong, he would inevitably counterattack at the first time, before the arrival of Qin Chu's army.

Therefore, this is the most critical time for the overall situation in the north.

……

"Driving ......"

The war horses burst, the sound of horses' hooves was like thunder, and the black Qinzi Daxu flag completely dissolved in the sunset. Emperor Hu Hai's thousand-man team has already walked out of the Baili Valley.

The cavalry of the Thousand Men flew out at lightning speed, and continued to gallop towards the north. The black mount under Hu Hai's crotch was extremely psychic, and with a long hiss, the speed suddenly accelerated, causing a loud cheer from the army.

In a cavalry, horsemanship is always the most important. Hu Hai's riding skills just now amazed the army of the Caishi Battalion.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, the cavalry of the Thousand Men was like a black red wine, sweeping northward across the open fields and the surging rivers.

This time, Emperor Hu Hai of Qin did not order a rest, he knew that in the war, every minute was racing, and there were even more words of speed among the nobles.

This time with an army of 50,000, he must recapture Yunzhong County, and because of this, Hu Hai will speed up.

Because Hu Hai knew that if Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, arrived one step ahead, the Chu army would have the greatest advantage at that time, which would be unfavorable to the Qin army.

This war is not so much about saving Zhao, but about the division of interests between Qin and Chu.
