Chapter 83: Before the decisive battle

However, it was said that Wang Jian personally led an army of 50,000 to Yi'an to find Li Mu for a decisive battle, and at this time, everyone in Yi'an City was busy abandoning the city and relocating the people, and they had no time to take care of it.

In the past few days, about half of the people in the city have been moved, Li Mu divided more than 20,000 troops to escort the people to the vicinity of Shaoshan safely, and then Wen Chong, the general sent by King Zhao, led the troops to Handan, Wu'an, and Nanfanwu to settle.

Inside the city of Yi'an

Li Muzheng and the generals were discussing in the yamen, when a junior colonel strode in and reported: "General, the scouts have found that a Qin army of about 50,000 or 60,000 people is advancing in the direction of Yi'an, and this army has set off from Fenglong and is now less than 500 miles away from Sheyanpo."

After hearing this, Li Mu thought to himself: "The person who commands this army must be Wang Qian, it seems that he wants to come to Yi'an City to find me, and now he must move all the people away before fighting him, it seems that now he can only send someone to intercept him, can it be delayed for a while."

After thinking about it, he pondered for a while and immediately said to the generals: "Order Cheng Bian, the captain of the Yi'an garrison, and Lu Rui to lead the 3,000 infantry army and 2,000 cavalry to rush to Sheyanpo to build fortifications, and the Chili garrison captain Chongwei and Li Huan led the 4,000 infantry army and 1,000 cavalry to set up an ambush in the Shaanxi Valley after the sheyan slope.

The two of you will build the fortifications in the woods in the valley, so that you can quickly form a second defensive position when surrounded by the Qin army, you can go to the barracks now to assemble the army and set off, remember to march quickly and build fortifications when the Qin army arrives at Sheyan Slope.

By the way, also, since our army is going to abandon the city, many defensive equipment in this city will inevitably not be able to be taken away, you can effectively consume the Qin army by taking them together, I will give you five chariots, each chariot is only equipped with one driver, to make more space to carry heavy equipment, listen to the Qin army must be contained for ten days has supported me to abandon the city and relocate the people."

After the four of them received the order, they walked out of the yamen and went straight to the barracks to lead the troops, Li Mu looked at the backs of the four people and said in his heart: "You must contain the Qin army within ten days, once the Qin army breaks through your two defense lines within ten days, the people of Yi'an and Chili and the exhausted soldiers will all be killed."

Li Mu forced himself to come back to his senses and said to Liu Xiang on the side: "What do you think of my arrangement?"

Liu Xiang said: "In the next few years, I knew very well the way of the general's army, and the general used to cooperate with each other to effectively kill and injure the enemy, so that the soldiers and horses themselves suffered too many casualties.

However, the general, Wang Jian is a veteran of the battle, and he led an elite army of tigers and wolves of 50,000 or 60,000 people, and the general only ordered these 10,000 soldiers and horses to go to block it.

Li Mu smiled and patted Liu Xiang's shoulder and said, "Isn't there still you Liu Xiang."

"Me"

"That's right, although you are much younger than us generals, but at this moment you are no longer as immature as when we first met, how many encounters you have made the Qin army lose troops and generals know what it feels like to lose, and you even led the northern army to regain lost territory without any assistance.

Your Lu Lian, Ye Zhao and others are not inferior to the evil ones, Jiang Chen and Zhang Enming have the style of generals who can dominate the town, and your soldiers and horses can definitely compete with the Qin army, so you are definitely capable of blocking the Qin army again."

Li Mu said again: "I have sent someone to inform the four generals of Chenglu Species, and ordered the four of them and their soldiers and horses to obey your orders, I think that with your strength, although you may not be able to defeat Wang Qian, you can definitely hold on until I complete the relocation."

Although I told the four of them to hold on for ten days, judging from the current speed of the people's evacuation, you still need to hold on for at least five days, and now most of the soldiers and horses under your command have been sent to move supplies, grain and grass, I can only give you 2,000 infantry troops and 1,000 cavalry, Jiang Chen, Lu Lian and all your generals will also be sent to you, can you complete the task I assigned. ā€

After listening to what Li Mu said, Liu Xiang thought in his heart: "Just now, I was just discussing and discussing, how to turn it into a task to be completed at the end, but the death of the Zhao State is imminent, so I will lead the army to block the path of the Qin army again this time."

So he said: "Now that the Qin army is about to destroy my country, the unarmed people still have the will to save the country, Liu Xiang is a member of the general, and he will be honored by the king many times, and he will do his best to go to the national disaster with all the soldiers."

"Okay, but you must know that this time you are not facing Wang Peng and some other young generals of the Qin army, you are facing the veteran Wang Jian who is known as the god of war of the Qin army, this war must be the most cruel one you have ever seen, and the soldiers around you don't know how many people will die."

"General, I said that I will do my best to go to the national disaster with all the soldiers, how can I avoid it because of good and bad luck, general, if the luck is not bad, we will meet again in fifteen days, farewell."

After that, Liu Xiang went to the direction of the barracks without looking back, Li Mu looked at Liu Xiang's distant back and said, "You must come back alive."

After Liu Xiang arrived at the barracks, he immediately stepped on his war horse and led all his generals and the 3,000 soldiers and horses given by Li Mu, and the whole army quickly went to the west in the direction of Sheyanpo.

The cavalry of the Zhao army rushed to the Yanpo with the infantry in front and behind, and Lu Lian ran to Liu Xiang's side and said: "Big brother, you said that with our 3,000 foot cavalry, there are only more than 10,000 people, and Wang Jian is carrying 50,000 or 60,000 elite divisions, can we resist it?"

"The order given to me by the general is to hold on for 15 days, and after passing the Sheyan Slope and the slope and falling into the Shaanxi Valley, and then go east is a horse Pingchuan, once we hold on for less than 15 days, with the speed of the Qin army's iron cavalry, we can kill Yi'an in no more than two hours, and these people who are still on the way to retreat will be in danger, so we must hold on to these 15 days no matter what."

Ye Zhao also ran over and said: "Yes, I heard that Wang Peng and Li Xin are attacking the Southwest Great Wall, and Lingchuan on the east side has also captured more than a dozen cities, and Zhao Guo is now a little bit of a catastrophe."

Jiang Chen said to everyone: "Wang Jian is menacing with tens of thousands of Qin troops, but it is not invincible, although the Qin army is not too far away from Fenglong, but the invincible Qin army soldiers must not have taken us seriously, not to mention that it is expected that our army will build fortifications on Sheyan Slope, and the Qin army, which is already in chaos, will have a great reduction in combat effectiveness, and our army can attack first on Sheyan Slope."

Second, the slope of the shooting goose is a cone-shaped slope is steep, the most prominent cavalry of the Qin army will inevitably lose its advantage, our army can use catapults to condescendingly carry out a long-distance attack on the Qin army, even if the shooting of the wild goose slope is unfortunately lost, the Qin army can be consumed again in the valley behind the slope.

Third, the roads are muddy just after the autumn rains, and the Qin army's heavy grain and grass must be inconvenient to transport, and our army can also allocate some forces to carry out a sneak attack on the Qin army, so even if the Qin army passes, it will definitely lose its troops and lose its generals."

After hearing this, Liu Xiang said loudly: "Okay, all the soldiers are speeding up towards the shooting goose slope."

The fall of Zhao is imminent, and the soldiers and civilians of Zhao have long been ready to fight to the death, please see the next volume: Save the Picture, Fight to the Death.
