Chapter 814: Qin Zhao Goes to War
"Send someone to Xianyang, in order to reprimand the prince for solitary, and reduce his one-year salary as a punishment!"
Qin Wangyan closed the document that had just been passed back from the Shangdang and said.
Since Feng Ting dedicated it to Shangdang County of Zhao State, after a short discussion in the court of Zhao State, King Zhao, who held real power, strongly advocated accepting Shangdang County, and the reason was that no one refuted it.
Qin is the country of tigers and wolves, and the number of countries in the Central Plains is innumerable.
I heard that Lao Qin was strong and watched, and he was watching the western border of Zhao State, and he had the land of the party, so that Zhao State had a few more dangerous passes that could be defended, wouldn't it weaken Qin State and strengthen himself.
From this, it can also be seen that the Zhao court is indeed not as chaotic as Qi, Wei, Chu and other countries, most of the ministers and generals agree to take advantage of the situation to accept Shangdang County, but those who think that Shangdang County is a hot potato Zhao State can not accept a few ministers, and they are not powerful.
If so, Feng Ting had already established a good relationship with Zhao Guo in advance, and now that he raised the flag, the Korean widows who grasped the local power of the Shangdang naturally responded in groups, and welcomed the Lian Po Department sent by King Zhao to garrison the Shangdang.
Zhao Guo was so decisive, but the old Qin Xianyang Prince Zheng seemed a little cringe, seeing that Zhao Guo's blatant garrison took over Shangdang County, he was also angry, and sent an envoy to Zhao State Handan, persuading it to return to Shangdang, and did not hesitate to send troops to war.
Zhao Guo is a state of martial arts, how can it withstand this threat, plus Zhao Wang He only feels that what the Qin envoy said is like a paper tiger with teeth and claws, and the battle of Hangu Pass is certainly the prestige of Qin, but it has not damaged Zhao at all, and now Zhao Wang He only feels that Qin is not enough.
So in front of Zhao Ting's full house of civil and military, he beat the Qin envoy with a stick, and wanted to preemptively issue a notice to recruit troops to attack Qin.
As for the documents sent by the old Qin Xianyang Prince Zheng, it was to take over the war of Zhao, Sima Coo was old, and it was Gongsun Qi and Wang Jian and other old Qin generals who were not in the territory, so they had to select the old Qin general Wang Ji to lead 100,000 troops to attack Zhao.
And Qin Wangyan of Luoyang saw the prince's actions, and he felt that he was controlled by others everywhere, missed the opportunity, and did not respond as quickly as Zhao Guo, so he was a little unhappy and cut the prince's nominal one-year salary, and sent someone to reprimand.
After the arrangements on these scenes passed, Qin Wangyan recruited the confidants and eunuchs in the Qin Palace, and then glanced at the documents written by the crown prince, and then said: "It's still too immature, not to the point of being dense and unnegotiated......
"Go to Xianyang, take Feng Ting's descendants Feng Quji, Feng Zheng and other clansmen to Luoyang, and settle them well, don't let them down......"
……
Let's talk about Lao Qin's side, the prince ordered Wang Di to take command, this Wang Di was Lao Qin's chief in charge of military affairs, and he was also a general, and at present, the Zhao army has not completely occupied the party, and Lao Qin has a garrison in Pingyang.
Wang Di's soldiers and horses were sent by this Liyang, and he ordered the Qin general Wang Ling, who was stationed in Pingyang, to lead 8,000 troops to seize several important cities in Shangdang County, which was not occupied by Zhao State.
The soldiers and horses sent by Zhao to Shangdang County were originally brought by Taiyuan, and when they first arrived, even if they had the internal response of the elders of the Han royal family, they could not react, but those local Han royal family elders had to abandon their ancestral property and fled to the territory of Zhao with their wives.
This Wang Ling was young and vigorous, and although he saw that the Shangdang had taken refuge in Zhao State, the soldiers and horses sent by Zhao State in a hurry must be scarce, so he also marched forward vigorously, attacking the city all the way, and was eager to recover Shangdang County.
Lian Po ordered the deputy general Zhao Ji to pretend to engage the Qin army and lure Wang Ling into deep pursuit, while he led his soldiers and horses to set up an ambush in Guangwolf Mountain.
This royal tomb is really a plan, only with 5,000 soldiers and horses in the Zhao army surrounded by the Zhao army, although it is a plan, this royal tomb is also said to be anxious, but did not lose the sense of proportion, and the Zhao army after a night of fighting, suddenly heard the Zhao army rear phalanx flag chaos, the army is unstable.
After expecting something to happen, Wang Ling also clashed in all directions, and people informed Yu that the reinforcements had arrived, and they could counterattack the Zhao army.
After a night of fierce fighting, more than 3,000 people have been killed, and the rest are either only half a life left, or they have been exhausted.
Sure enough, half an hour later, the camp of the Zhao army was broken, and it was the chief Wang Di who personally led the troops.
It turned out that the day to hear that Wang Ling advanced all the way to recover Shangdang County without the slightest intention of stagnation and slowdown, Wang Di had already noticed that it was not good, at that time he picked up 20,000 cavalry to take the lead, and finally arrived in the area of Guangwolf Mountain, and heard that Wang Ling was trapped, Wang Yi was also in his heart, led the cavalry around the east of Guangwolf Mountain, and ambushed the rear of the Zhao army.
Lian Po was cautious, seeing that the Qin army's cavalry was killing from the rear, the situation was unclear, and most of his men were foot soldiers, and there were only more than 30,000 people, so he retreated to the southeast.
The deputy general Zhao Qi slowed down half a step, and was blocked by the cavalry led by Wang Ji, that Wang Ling was even more killed in the army, relying on Li Yong to kill Zhao Qi alone, the battle of Guangwolf Mountain, although Wang Ling lost a lot of soldiers, but fortunately Wang Ji arrived in time, Zhao Jun left nearly 10,000 corpses, and even Zhao General Zhao Qi was also killed on the battlefield.
The battle of Guangwolf Mountain made Lian Po realize the bravery of the old Qin Ruishi, and it was not the long-trained Hufu cavalry and archery pawn of Zhao Guo who could not be defeated.
In the following month, the Zhao army led by Lian Po fought several battles with the Qin army, and the battle gradually expanded, and the Qin army broke through two garrison camps, lost three cities in Shangdang County, and was captured by the Qin army with four lieutenants.
Lian Po knew that the military horses of Zhao State stationed in Shangdang were not the opponents of the old Qin Ruishi, so he fortified the wall, retreated to Changping, and stationed troops here, waiting for the follow-up reinforcements of Zhao State, and was to receive the local Han royal clan elders in Shangdang County.
It was January again, and the Zhao army built a wall in Changping, but the wall did not come out.
The Qin army Wang Ling ordered the former general Wang Ling to lead the elite soldiers to attack the two Changping cities west of Changping, and the Zhao army leaned on the two cities with the momentum of the corner, and captured two captains of the Zhao army.
When Wang Di took advantage of the fact that the Zhao army did not dare to go out of the village easily, he also concentrated his superior forces, set up trebuchets, broke through the position of the Zhao army, and captured the camp west of Changping.
Seeing that the Qin army was invincible on the battlefield, Lian Po, who knew that he was invincible, chose to stick to the camp and adopt a defensive posture to confront the Qin army.
Seeing that Lian Po was ineffective in the battle and lost half of the Shangdang County, King Zhao also came to blame.
There was no shortage of people in Zhao Ting who interceded for Lian Po, and the detailed information about the battle between Shangdang Qin and Zhao was also transmitted to Handan one after another, and King Zhao knew that the elite troops produced by Lao Qin were definitely not something that the Zhao soldiers recruited in a hurry could resist.
Therefore, the king of Zhao also sent a letter to Li Mu, who was guarding Yanmen, and divided half of the soldiers in Hufu to support Lian Po, who was holding Changping, to fight with the old Qin soldiers and horses.
King Zhao knew that the battle of Changping was no longer good, and King Zhao ordered Zhao Sheng, the king of Pingyuan, to recruit troops in Zhao again, and trained by Zhao Kuo, a horse suit, to prepare to send it to Shangdang to support when the battle of Shangdang changed.
