Chapter 625: Dan River Confrontation
Qindu Xianyang!
The news of the victory in the first battle came, which made the monarchs and ministers of the Qin State breathe a sigh of relief! Zuo Shu Chang Wang Ji is worthy of being a good general, and he was able to force the veteran Lian Po to retreat again and again......
King Qin said with joy: "Zuo Shu Changwang Ji, who killed Zhao Shipei's general in a battle, and even took advantage of the situation to take the second city on the defense line of Kongcangling, such military exploits should be rewarded!" ”
"Zuo Shu Chang fought and forced Zhao General Lian to retreat again and again, he should be rewarded!" There were many ministers in the court, and they all responded to King Qin's words!
Seeing that so many important ministers responded to their words, King Qin was also carried away by the joy of winning the first battle! Just as he was about to be rewarded, Xiangbang Fan Ju was in the way of speaking!
Fan Ju: "Your Majesty, now that Qin and Zhao are in the first battle, the crisis in the land of Shangdang has not been completely resolved, so it is better to wait for Zuo Shuchang to completely defeat Lian Po before rewarding!" At that time, the feudal king will bow to the marquis, and that will be just a matter of convenience! ”
When he heard Fan Ju's words, King Qin suddenly sobered up! Now that the battle between Qin and Zhao has just begun, such a victory is just the beginning, and the important thing is still to come!
King Qin immediately said: "What Xiang Bang said is very true, if Zuo Shu Chang continues to lead his soldiers to attack Zhao General Lian Po, he will lift the crisis of the party in one fell swoop!" The matter of worshipping the prince is not a problem! I'll take note of this credit for the time being......"
"Your Majesty, although the Zuo Shu Chang Wang Yi captured the Erxiang City on the Kongcangling defense line in one battle, but the Qin division between my front line is difficult to sustain with food, and the minister implores the king to send the people to build the land waterway of Hedong County to ensure that the front-line soldiers have food and baggage!" Fan Ju saw that King Qin was so forgetful for a while, so he immediately poured a basin of cold water!
After hearing Fan Ju's question, King Qin, who was already triumphant, immediately asked, "Uncle Fan, what does this mean?" Could it be that the food burden of the front-line soldiers cannot be solved? ”
"Your Majesty, I have just received a reply from General Wang Di, and now the 300,000 soldiers of the Qin Army who are on the front line are worried about the problem of food baggage day and night! From the front of Xianyang, the capital of Qin, to the land of the party in South Korea, the road is far away! If the food problem cannot be solved, the king, the ministers are afraid that in this battle between Qin and Zhao, my Qin division will be the first to be defeated by the matter of grain and grass! ”
As soon as Fan Ju said this, the ministers in the court of the Qin State all showed a look of astonishment! Isn't that alarmist? With so many soldiers on the front line, didn't they immediately defeat Zhao's division? Is this a protracted war?
Doctor Yongrui stepped forward and asked: "Xiangbang, with your intentions, the battle of Qin and Zhao in the land of Shangdang, but you have to be prepared to fight for a long time?" ”
Regarding Yong Rui's questioning, Fan Ju couldn't look down on it! The Tao is different, not conspiring with each other, how does he know what he thinks in his heart?
However, when Fan Ju saw that countless doctors in the court were looking sideways at him, Fan Ju explained: "Zhao Guo doesn't need anything else, Zhao Guo is famous for his Hufu cavalry and archery, and now that he is fighting with Zhao Guo, he must be ready for a protracted war!" What's more, Master Zhao will be Lian Po, and what this person is good at is all a battle to defend the success! ”
As Fan Ju explained the current predicament, the important ministers of the Qin State echoed Fan Ju and said: "Your Majesty, you should immediately build a waterway in the land east of the river!" ”
How did the Qin State send its baggage from Xianyang to the land of Shangdang County, one of the most important routes is: from the capital Xianyang to take the waterway by boat, down the Wei River to the east, through the Yellow River waterway, and then to the ancient capital of the Jin Dynasty, Xintianyi!
And Xintian-eup is now for the land of Hedong County, where it enters the hinterland of Shangdang when it goes eastward! However, the problem with the waterways arose in Sincheon-eup, Hadong-gun, where the riverbed was raised, making it dangerous to transport food by water! Therefore, the Qin division abandoned the waterway to transport grain and used the landing route to transport it......
Now, Fan Ju has spoken out and hopes that the river channel can be rebuilt, the riverbed can be lowered, and the waterway in Hedong County can be reactivated! In this way, it is difficult to change the situation that it is difficult for Qin to transport grain!
The construction of the river channel in the land of Hedong County requires a huge amount of money and food, and the king of Qin asked indiscriminately: "Xiangbang, now that Qin and Zhao are facing each other, I don't know when it will end, and if the river is built now, I am afraid it will be ......."
Before King Qin finished speaking, Fan Ju directly stopped him and said: "Your Majesty, before the minister came to the palace, he heard about the guest in the house: the woodcutter was sick one day, so he asked his two sons to go up the mountain to chop wood, and the eldest son went up the mountain early in the morning in order to set an example for his younger brother. But the younger brother first went to the neighbor's house to borrow a whetstone and sharpened the knife all morning. Unexpectedly, in the end, the younger son chopped two loads of firewood, while the eldest son only cut a small load of firewood......"
After telling this story, Fan Ju looked at King Qin's unbelievable expression! "Your Majesty, the construction of the river in Hedong County is like a farmer's youngest son sharpening a knife, although it seems to be extremely troublesome, but after the completion of the matter, it is extremely convenient. As the saying goes: sharpening the knife is not wrong to chop firewood! The king ......"
Seeing Xiangbang Fan Ju say this, King Qin thought for a long time, and then nodded and said: "For the Qin army soldiers in the land of Shangdang County, I will act according to Xiangbang's wishes......"
"Whoa!"
With the decree of King Qin, the river of Hedong County was quickly repaired! Compared with the construction of the river channel in Zhao Guodai for several years, the east of Hedong County is only reinforced on the original site, so it will soon be able to carry grain and navigable......
……
Land of the Dan River!
With the loss of Zhao Shi's Eryan City on the Kongcangling defense line, Zhao Shi built the Danhe defense line on the west side of the Baili Stone Great Wall! I want to use this to consume Master Qin......
And after seeing Lian Po's continuous repair of the defense line of the Dan River, the Qin general Wang Ji sent meticulous work every day to explore...... He wanted to see what kind of construction the Dan River could be built by this Zhao general, who was famous for guarding the Chengcheng?
Although the land of the Dan River looks precipitous, after careful observation, the terrain is very flat and open! This made Wang Yi come with a little sly smile on his face, what kind of fortifications can you build a city in such a terrain?
Wang Di was watching, and Lian Po was still letting the soldiers bury their heads in the construction of fortifications! You can say, yours are busy, I'm busy with mine......
And such a confrontation situation, in the blink of an eye, two months of time have flown by! The two divisions of Qin and Zhao were bounded by the water of the Dan River, and the soldiers of the two sides were hostile to each other and confronted each other, no one knew when this situation would end?
