Chapter Thirty-Seven: A Prosperous Age in the Flames
Wang Di sat in front of Bai Qi with a serious expression: "Zhao Jun still didn't know that you were coming, so Lao Bai, I think this time it should be resolved quickly." β
"Quick fix." When it came to business, Bai Qi naturally stopped laughing with Wang Di, and knocked the table with the index finger of his right hand one by one.
Suddenly, he evoked a sneer.
"Then King Zhao is also thinking about a quick solution at this time."
"King Zhao?" Wang Yi thought for a while: "Yes, I think that the national strength of Zhao State at this time is already crumbling. β
"The battle to defend the city should have been fought steadily, but since King Zhao replaced the stubborn Lian Po and ordered Zhao Kuo to seek victory, I think it is already unbearable for Changping's consumption."
"Therefore, it should not be us who is anxious now, but King Zhao, no matter whether Zhao Kuo wants to fight or not, King Zhao will definitely urge him to fight. Because if it drags on like this, it will not just be as simple as losing a long level, and the entire Zhao Kingdom will probably be dragged to death. β
Bai Qi said unhurriedly.
"We just wait for the king of Zhao to urge Zhao Kuo, and when Zhao Kuo has no food and no help, naturally we can only come out and fight to the death with our army. The cavalry entered the mountain, and I waited for a circle, but there was no food and grass, and it was only ten days at most, and it was self-defeating. β
Wang Yi nodded deeply at Bai Qi's words, and looked at his old friend with admiration.
He was still thinking about how to attack the formation, but Bai Qi had already prepared a countermeasure to wait for work.
"In the past few days, three thousand light horsemen will be sent to call for battle in front of the Zhao army every day, and wait for their King Zhao to urge them to come out."
"In addition, after sending out 30,000 rear troops, they are ready to take advantage of the mountains and forests to bypass the Zhao State camp at any time, once the war starts, as soon as the main force of the Zhao army comes out, the last grain route of the Zhao State will also be cut off."
"Zhao Jun's battle has already been fought, and if it doesn't fight, it has to be fought."
Wang Yi nodded, stood up and bowed down and said, "The last general will take the order." β

In the middle of the night, Zhao Kuo led his horse back to the camp, and the soldiers at the gate of the camp saw that it was Zhao Kuo and hurriedly opened the door.
"General."
Zhao Kuo nodded at the soldier, looked at the tiredness on the soldier's face, and smiled: "If you wait for the camp to stay in the camp for a few days and nights, it's okay to rest for a while, just don't really fall asleep." β
"General." The soldier's eyes showed a hint of gratitude, but he shook his head: "What if the Qin army attacks at night, I will close the camp gate, and the general can rest assured." β
"Don't worry."
Qin Jun, Zhao Kuo sighed, the smile on his face seemed to be a little bitter: "The Qin army will not attack the camp in the past few days, they are waiting for us to go out." β
The soldier couldn't understand Zhao Kuo's words, but he knew that the little general was really treating them well, not as strict as General Lian Po, and was very sympathetic to them.
The general has done this, and if the soldier is lazy and slippery, he does not take his life seriously.
Guarding the camp gate is in wartime, but it is a matter of human life.
"General, you can go, I won't be tired of waiting."
Zhao Kuo looked at the appearance of the soldier, shook his head, and led the horse away.
The soldier summoned the rest of the team and slowly closed the door to the barracks.
Zhao Kuo tied his horse to the horse stake in front of the camp tent, lifted the curtain of the camp tent and walked in.
But he found that in his tent, his own soldiers were standing inside waiting for him.
Seeing Zhao Kuo walking in, the bamboo slip in his hand hurriedly handed it over.
"General, the paperwork sent by the envoy sent by King Zhao."
Zhao Kuo frowned, but the documents at this time could never bring any good news.
Flipping through the bamboo slip in his hand, he just glanced at it a few times, and a wry smile appeared on his face.
King Xiaowen couldn't wait, Zhao couldn't hold it anymore, and asked him to fight a decisive battle as soon as possible and solve it quickly.
Decisive Battle Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
He knew that when he sent this biography from King Xiaowen, it was already difficult to win.
In ancient times, when attacking a city, the besieging soldiers should be multiplied by the soldiers defending the city before they could be the enemy.
If the Zhao army does not defend the city, there will still be a few months to defend, but this time, if the king of Zhao insists that they take the initiative to attack, the attack and defense are exchanged, the Qin army is 600,000, and the Zhao army is 450,000, how can the odds of victory be at all?
Changping is located in a strategic place where Shangdang belongs to Shangdang, and it can be said that the capture of Changping is equivalent to the capture of Shangdang.
If Shangdang takes it, Qin only needs to bypass Taihang Mountain and directly attack Handan, the capital of Zhao.
And if Shangdang is in the hands of Zhao State, Zhao State can attack Anyi on the west side of Shangdang, Anyi is taken, cross the Qinling Mountains, cross the Yellow River, and directly attack Xianyang, the capital of Qin.
Qin has the heart to destroy Zhao, and Zhao has the ambition to kill Qin.
Then the party must be a place that has to be taken.
As a result, a battle of one million soldiers in the Shangdang area was created.
However, it is obvious that the Zhao army has been very strong since Hufu cavalry shooting, but when it comes to national strength, it is not as good as the Qin State after the Shang Dynasty changed the law.
From the very beginning, Zhao Guo's abacus was wrong, coupled with the wrong layout in the early stage of Changping's attack and defense, and did not consider the preparation for long-term operations, which led to the daily decline of the battle situation.
Zhao Kuo stood in the camp for a long time, holding the bamboo slip in his hand.
Changping will be defeated, he actually has an eight-point plan in his heart.
But Changping must not be so simply lost, once Changping fell, the Qin army went north, over the Taihang Mountain is the capital Handan.
If Handan is broken, Zhao Guo will die, and how will his family deal with themselves?
No matter how you say it, you have to fight with all your might, and you want the Qin army to be unable to go north.
"General." Seeing that Zhao Kuo had been standing there, he didn't say a word, and asked worriedly, "What's wrong?" β
Zhao Kuo felt that his hands were cold, put down the bamboo slips, walked to the brazier on the side, and put his hand on the top of the flame to warm up.
Said something that even he felt frightened.
"Within five days, fight to the death."
400,000 handsome armor, attacking 600,000 Qin troops.
How crazy is this?
But for the battle of Changping, which has already been half lost, it can only fight like this, or there is vitality.
If there were no warsΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
Zhao Kuo seemed to remember what the Qin soldier surnamed Gu said on the hill before.
He seemed to see that in the dancing flames of the brazier.
Zhao Kuo's vision blurred.
It was really a peaceful and prosperous time.
