Compared with King Han's hesitant attitude, the Qin people's attack speed seemed to be very fast. Just when they were still considering whether to agree to Zhao's request, Gan Mao personally led the Qin army and fought fiercely for three days and three nights in Wusui to take this strategic town. Immediately afterwards, he turned the gun and surrounded Yiyang again.

The reason why Gan Mao began to besiege Yiyang but did not attack it was because he knew that Yiyang was too important, and that if the troops surrounded Yiyang, he would definitely be retaliated by the whole army of South Korea, so he was ready to wait for work and wait for the arrival of South Korean reinforcements before attacking, giving South Korea a major lesson.

However, I don't know why, the main force of South Korea has been missing for a long time, which puts Gan Mao in a dilemma, so he besieged Yiyang for four months and did not dare to attack. He judged that South Korea was still calm and had to find a way to mobilize South Korea to dispatch the main force, so he transferred the army to Wusui, which was more important to South Korea than Yiyang, and was not afraid that the Koreans would not send troops.

As a result, he was naturally disappointed, and he didn't know if South Korea had an important hole card, or if it was too big, and he surrounded Wusui for several days, and he didn't see reinforcements coming. This time, Gan Mao made a heart, seized Wusui, and then returned to Yiyang. In this way, not only do you not have to worry about the enemy coming to attack your left flank troops, but you can also become a surprise force to harass behind the opponent when the main force of South Korea rescues Yiyang, and you can sit firmly on Diaoyutai and launch an attack on Yiyang with all your might.

He can see this, and the Koreans can also realize that the loss of Wusui is not only the loss of an important town, but even Yiyang is no longer easy to fight. Wu Sui was on the left flank of the Qin army, and the right flank was the Luo River, forming a natural barrier to the main force of the Qin army.

As a result, the Koreans, who had no way out, had to send troops to Yiyang while asking Zhao for help, hoping that King Zhao would send troops to help Korea. At the same time, he was willing to give the wild king to Zhao State.

"Finally agreed." Zhao Yong handed the bamboo slip in his hand to Le Yi and the others beside him, and then said to the lieutenant with a smile: "If it weren't for Mr. 's suggestion, spreading rumors in Xianyang, so that Gan Mao had to hurry up and launch an attack on Korea, I really don't know when this city will be obtained, and Mr. has the greatest contribution to this matter." ”

The lieutenant shook his head, "There are some contradictions between Gan Lijian and Gan Mao, Gan Mao is not from Qin, and Zhu Lijian has been snubbed by the King of Qin, so as long as he hears rumors, whether it is a conspiracy or not, he will attack Gan Mao. ”

Su Qin heard Zhao Yong say that this was all the captain's strategy, and he was a little more impressed by this national captain. Although he came to Zhao as an envoy of Qi State, in the absence of outsiders, he was no different from Le Yi and them.

He came to Zhao State, not to hope that Zhao State would send troops, but to make a work report to Zhao Yong and the next work ideas, and secondly, to know what kind of attitude Zhao Guo had towards King Qi's desire to dominate the Kanto region, and he acted cheaply.

"In that case, the king really plans to send troops to help Korea?" Su Qin put down the bamboo slip and looked at Zhao Yong, because it would determine how he would explain to the King of Qi next.

"Of course, but not now, and the goal is not Yiyang." Zhao Yong said with a smile, "It's just that they have the same destination." ”

Seeing that Su Qin was a little puzzled, Le Yi said with a smile: "What the king means is that the Qin State still has to fight, but it can't be cheaper than South Korea." A wild king is far from our best choice, and we should take a long-term view. ”

"For example?" Su Qin wondered.

"Such as Anyi, Pi's and Fenyin." Le Yi said with a smile, "If we can open up the four cities of Yewang, Anyi, Pi and Fenyin, then Yiguan will be completely under the control of my Zhao State, and at that time, whether it is Korea or Wei State, they must rely on us." This is the ultimate goal of the king. ”

After thinking about it for a while, Su Qin understood this matter.

Now Fenyin, Pishi and Anyi are all under the control of the Qin State, which is equivalent to controlling the entrance to Yiguan, but this place was originally a city of the Wei State and was occupied by the Qin State. After the Zhao State attacked, it naturally belonged to the Zhao State. And controlling this channel is equivalent to completely dividing the land of Wei into two, and the land of Wei in Hedong has become an enclave, and it has also become a place for the three kingdoms of Qin, Zhao, and Wei to wrestle, but it is obvious that Wei cannot compete with these two great powers, and the contradictions between Qin and Zhao are burning on the land of Wei.

And South Korea lost Shangdang, lost Yiguan, and the land would also be divided into two by Zhao State, and the Shangdang region, which could be contacted through Yewang, was blocked by Zhao State, so that the land was divided into two parts, and Shangdang also became an enclave. Although nominally belonging to Korea, it is threatened by the state of Cho.

In a word, the land of Han and Wei in the land east of the river will be reduced to the battlefield of the Zhao state's game, and with the guarantee of these two lands, the Zhao state will have more strength to fight against the Qin state.

Su Qin thought again, before the alliance of Zhao, Han, and Wei, there was no agreement for a long time, as long as Zhao got these cities, Korea and Wei would definitely obey Zhao's orders unless they decided to turn their faces with Zhao. In this way, Han Zhao Wei will form a superficial sense of the same qi and branches. When the time comes, whether it is Qin or Qi, they can't ignore Zhao's attitude, and even think a little more, Zhao State commanding the Three Kingdoms Alliance Army and sweeping the Kwantung region is not necessarily a difficult thing.

Thinking about this section, Su Qin had a better understanding of Zhao Yong's courage and the plans of Le Yi, Wei and others, and then he also knew how to deal with it next.

"When will Zhao Guodang send troops?" Su Qin asked.

"The timing should not be too early or too late." Zhao Yong said seriously, "If it is too early, the Qin State can calmly withdraw its troops from Yiyang, and it will not bring opportunities to the Zhao army going north and south, and if it is too late, it will be easy to make South Korea suspicious." Therefore, the widow is ready to drag this period of time to talk about it. ”

"Drag? How to drag? Su Qin asked suspiciously, in his opinion, South Korea is now imminent, and Zhao Guo cannot be allowed to delay.

Zhao Yong stretched his waist, looked at the gloomy sky outside the hall, and smiled maliciously: "Why can't you delay?" It's cold, and looking at the weather, there must be a heavy snowfall soon. The road for our army to reach Yiyang recently is to go to the party, but now the snow is muddy, and the party is extremely precipitous, and our army will toss for two or three months from the assembly to the arrival of Yiyang, which is enough. The widow doesn't believe it, he Gan Mao has no restraints, and he can't beat Yiyang City. ”

"Even so, it is still necessary to let Zhao Hao be cautious, and when necessary, he still needs to make a decision on the spot, first create the established facts, and then talk about it later." The lieutenant suddenly interjected, "Of course, on the Korean side, open and waiting, the king still has to be steady." Although he is friendly to Cho, he will not joke with the interests of South Korea. ”

"Not bad." Zhao Yong nodded, "This matter is still up to Shangqing to decide." ”

"No." Le Yi hurriedly responded.

As Zhao Yong expected, the gloomy weather that had been accumulated for several days finally snowed heavily, and the heavy snow did not stop for several days. As a result, some houses outside Handan City were crushed by heavy snow, and there were disasters in some places in Zhao State. Fortunately, in these years, Zhao's grain has been piled up, and even Zhongshan has not been affected, speaking of which, this heavy snow has not brought much trouble to Zhao.

However, this heavy snow for South Korea, can be said to be facing great difficulties, not to mention that the previous treasury had a slight surplus of grain, there was such a disaster, it was overstretched, just because of the heavy snow, caused by the blockage of traffic, so that the army of Zhao from Handan could not arrive at the Yiyang front line, which made the Koreans anxious. In their view, if a quick solution cannot be made, with South Korea's current grain reserves, it is really not appropriate to delay it for too long.

On the other hand, this heavy snow also caused a lot of trouble to Gan Mao, and the siege mission that he thought could be completed in two months had to be postponed again. This undoubtedly gave South Korea a chance to breathe, Yiyang was already rich in food, and he was out on the expedition, after all, he had to have some pain in transshipment. This made it difficult for the Qin army to attack.

What's more, the weather is cold, and Yiyang is even more difficult to attack, which makes Gan Mao a little angry. However, it will be difficult to grasp what the situation will become when the next year comes, and it will not be possible to bear the offensive of the South Koreans alone. So, on the one hand, he asked the king of Qin for help, hoping to increase the number of troops, and on the other hand, he hurried to arrange the siege of the city.

The heavy snow brought difficulties to Qin, and it was not necessarily a good thing for Korea, and the Koreans could only increase their troops to Yiyang first when they could not wait for Zhao's army for the time being. Gan Mao was holding back a fire and had nowhere to sprinkle, seeing that the Korean army dared to brave the snow, he was no longer polite, and used the morale of the Qin army and strict military discipline to defeat the Korean army that came to the trial, and the remnants of the army were busy rushing towards Xinzheng, and they no longer dared to confront the Qin army easily.

Although this incident made King Han furious, he had to urge Zhao Guo to speed up the march on the one hand, and on the other hand, let the violent kite, which had been recuperating before, come out of the mountain again, hoping that this veteran would give full play to his residual heat and lead the Korean army again to establish immortal feats. Of course, all this, at least now, is not so quickly established, and I can't say it, and I have to look up to Zhao Jun for a while.

Just when the two countries of Qin and Han were fighting, a bamboo slip quietly left Handan and ran to Daijun, where a person who had been out of the whirlpool for a long time couldn't wait to appear.
