The early morning mist had not yet dissipated, and Li Mu's army had begun to assemble. The horn sounded incessantly. The soldiers were still assembled and on standby.

The "woo-woo" horn kept urging the soldiers to assemble their pace. Zhao Jun has already started to run rapidly. A few days ago, King Zhao sent five ministers to urge. Li Mu wanted to refuse to send troops on the grounds that there was a shortage of food and grass and insufficient preparation. Who knows, King Zhao had already prepared, and only one day passed. King Zhao sent an army of 100,000 to increase the number of troops. Li Mu was extremely surprised when he heard about the reinforcements of the army.

Isn't the 100,000-strong army draining out the troops that are important for defending Shangdang and other places? Li Mu was very worried. The coming general is Sima Shang. Li Mu couldn't help but feel a chill behind him, in this operation, the legion fighting in the north had already shown weak combat effectiveness. Now I'm going to take some of it. I can't imagine it. At this time, the cavalry army of the Qin army had not yet withdrawn. If the Qin army turns around. Sudden murder from Daigun and other places. Handan is undefensible. Come to think of it. Li Mu really didn't understand why King Zhao made such a decision. Could it be that there was no reaction from the Qin State? Li Mu couldn't help but shake his head.

"The last general will meet the general." Sima Shang saluted.

"Get up." Li Mu stopped thinking and waved his hand.

"General Sima, let me ask you, how did you get your 100,000 horses." Li Mu first asked a key question. What is the combat power of this 100,000-strong army.

"Back to the general's words, this 100,000 army. 100,000 troops. Sima Shang didn't know whether to tell the truth or not, because Sima Shang clearly knew that the composition of the 100,000 army, the disabled Yunzhong Dai County garrison was 50,000, and the other 50,000 didn't know where King Zhao put it together. In short, there is no combat effectiveness. And the military discipline is extremely poor. On the way to the march, the army of 100,000 was divided into two teams, and the northern one was led by Sima Shang himself. And the one that set out from Handan, because it had to bear the supply of food and grass for the army, was to kill the Yan army that dared to attack on the road. At the beginning, this 50,000 Zhao army did not take the initiative to attack. But with one or two incidents of attack. The retaliated Zhao army began to ignore military discipline. Along the way, it was burned and killed. Yesterday, when Sima Shang was patrolling the camp, he found a woman from Yan Kingdom. Needless to say, you understand what's going on. Immediately, Sima Shang made an example of a hundred, which played a certain role, but the situation was not completely contained. This is unknown.

"Forget it." Li Mu waved his hand and said.

Li Mu clearly knew the composition of these 100,000 horses. These 100,000 horses are not considered an army at all. It was a rabble. Although the armies of Shangdang and other places were not mobilized. However, the north is really a big problem. If the Qin army suddenly kills, his own men and horses will not be able to resist at all.

"General, the king ordered us to take Yandu quickly. I don't know ・・・・・ general," Sima Shang said. Li Mu waved his hand with a headache and signaled not to continue.

Li Mu couldn't finish this matter at all, and everyone knew the situation in Yandu. This capital city of the Hu people in the north is extremely strong. If you want to attack the city, it is difficult. Add your own side. When Li Mu pursued the remnants of the Hu army, there were only 50,000 horses in total. With the increase in the number of cities captured. There are only more than 30,000 people who have arrived in Yandu. Those reinforcements are negligible. Li Mu's idea was to occupy the city. Digesting the lands of the Yan Kingdom that had already been occupied had already achieved its goal. I don't know what King Zhao thinks. He actually wanted to attack Yandu. It's simply an impossible thing to do.

"Yan Han. Do you think that Li Mu dares to fight Yandu? Yan Wangxi asked a general beside him.

"Back to the king, the last general thinks, dare. This Li Mu is extraordinary. Even the tiger wolf Qin State was defeated by him. This person really doesn't dare to underestimate it. Yan Han said.

"Yes. Then what do you think this swallow should do? King Yan asked again.

"The last general thinks that as long as you hold on, you can't get out. That Li Mu is not good for grain and grass, and he will inevitably retreat. Yan Han said.

"Well, that's exactly what the widow meant." King Yan said happily.

"Herald. There is no command from the widow. No one is allowed to leave the city. Yan Wang said emphatically.

"Whoa." Yan Han replied.

Li Mu stood alone on a sand table, staring at the sand table with his eyes. To the north was the cavalry of the Qin army. It's fast. Explore the Malay newspaper. Recently, Meng Tian's army has begun to stop sweeping the tribes of the Hu people and has begun to retreat. Wang Qian's army did not move. Just quietly stationed near the Great Wall of Yan Kingdom. There is a movement to go south at any time. At present, there are 100,000 Yan troops guarding the Yan Capital City. It is really impossible to break through Yandu. Li Mu thought about all kinds of possibilities.

If at this time, the Yan State and the Qin State have some contact, it is very likely that the Qin State will send troops. Li Mu tapped the location of the Northern Qin Army with his hand. This is the only force that poses a major threat at the moment. If left unchecked, it is difficult to guarantee your own flanks. The Qin army moved south. Zhao Jun is a foot soldier. Acting unfast. It was easy to be rushed and killed by the powerful Qin army. Outcome.

The Zhao army, which had attacked the city wall, had begun to gain the upper hand, and the Yan army was no longer able to recover the defeat. At this time, Zhao Jun's flank suddenly appeared with a black pressing tide. Li Mu didn't dare to think about it. This situation is the most dangerous.

Attacking Yandu, the problem is not too big. But how to defend against the Qin army in the north. That's the key. Yandu is close to the Great Wall of Yanguo. It was too easy for the Qin army to go south. How to solve this situation. can only repair the book for King Zhao. Li Mu turned around and came to the side of the desk. calmed down and began to write about Zhao Jun's current situation.

At this time, Shang Wen was vigorously making hydraulic presses. The first material used is wood. Two huge wooden barrels, one large and one small. After the water is injected, it is compressed using a bronze disc. At the end of the small barrel, it is temporarily made by manpower. This is an experimental model. Whether it succeeds or not depends on the result.

Several big men pressed the wooden pole hard. Under vigorous compression. The hydraulic press began to move. The iron plate at one end of the vat began to descend slowly. A piece of iron placed underneath has been placed. Shang Wen anxiously waited for the result.

Time flies. The slabs have begun to press the iron plates, and the pieces of iron that have been squeezed have begun to deform.

"Push harder." Shang Wen exclaimed.

The iron has been crushed to half its original height. Then two-thirds.

"Push harder." Shang Wen exclaimed.

The iron was no longer moving.

"Stop." Shang Wen shouted helplessly.

Shang Wen pulled out the iron plate that had been suppressed. Estimate the thickness, it's almost two centimeters thick. Chen Da, who was watching from the side, looked at the pressed iron plate in surprise. Shang Wen handed it to Chen Da. You need to record the results of your own experiments. It's not ideal. It's too thick.
