In late autumn, the weather is getting colder, thousands of trees are withering, and as far as the eye can see, you can only see the forest and the reddish river meandering through the mountains. This river originates from the undulating Danzhu Ridge hundreds of miles away in the north, and merges the water of the mountains of Shangdang, and builds down from north to south. Every time there is a heavy rainfall, the water potential rises two or three zhang, the floating sand is red ochre, and the water flow is like Dan, so the locals call it "Dan water".

There is a small village in the upper reaches of Danshui, which belongs to the rule of Hyun Yi, called "Changping", there are dozens of simple wild people in the village, and the whole village has worked together to cultivate hundreds of acres of thin fields, self-sufficient, and rarely leaves.

However, their peaceful life was shattered in the autumn of this year, and the civil war that burned throughout the Jin Kingdom did not let them go, and it soon burned here. One day, the villagers were horrified to find that their hometown was already on the battlefield.

The first to suffer were the four neighboring villages, which were originally heard of by chickens and dogs but did not communicate with each other, and now all of them are uninhabited. The people of Changping went out to see and found that many houses were burned to the ground by the flames, and only charred-shaped beams and pillars remained. And the houses that have not been burned are full of thorns, and have become a gathering place for jackals and foxes.

Scouts on horseback and wagons then came and went, and skirmishes broke out around the village from time to time. After more than a dozen battles, the open field was full of mutilated corpses gnawed by wild beasts, and large flocks of scavenging ravens roamed the feasts, making unpleasant chirps.

This frightened the villagers, who eventually fled as the war grew closer to where they lived.

They didn't know that just when they were leaving their hometown, there was a deep-eyed military general who was standing at the head of the Hyun Clan's city, looking this way.

……

Zhao Wuxian was wrapped in a big man, looking at the mountains and mountains of the Han clan in the west of the Danshui River Valley, as well as the villages in the center of the battlefield.

"Changping, Changping......" he said the name there, a smile on the corner of his mouth.

In history, the two strong Qin and Zhao of the Warring States refused to be here, Changping was the shame of Zhao, and it was the beginning of their decline from prosperity to decline, 400,000 Zhao people died here, and in the next two thousand years, countless bones and broken weapons can still be found in the mountains and ravines.

That great war finally determined the historical trend at the end of the Warring States period, the loser has been in a slump since then, and the victor has relied on the power of victory, and within a few decades, Zhen Changce and Yu Unai, swallowed two weeks and died the princes, ending the Spring and Autumn Warring States.

Fate? Or maybe it's a coincidence, in the historical line that was deeply changed by Zhao Wuxian, the Jin Civil War, which lasted for almost four years, is also very hopeful to be concluded in Changping.

"Map." He said lightly, and Feng Rin, who had been prepared behind him, walked over and spread out the map on the desk, which was already occupied with red and black dots and arrows.

Zhao Wuxian paced over and frowned, as more and more troops gathered, counting the people who kept transporting baggage to join, the number of people on Zhao's side was close to 60,000, and the enemy army was also close to 50,000, if there was a war, this should be a big battle of 100,000 people!

"100,000 people...... The battle of Jin, Chu and Yanling gathered more than ten princes back then, and it was only this scale. Zhao Wuxian also stood beside a young general in white rhino armor, speaking with a thick southern accent, his name is Wang Sunsheng, he was two years ago to vote for Zhao, his status is noble, bluffing the officials and bureaucrats were startled, this person is actually the grandson of King Chuping, the son of Prince Jian, and the nephew of the current King of Chu.

However, what Zhao Wuxian cares more about is his other identity: Wu Zixu's adopted son, who grew up in Wu when he was a child, but was not trusted by the Wu people, and his story was told in a letter by Xing Ao, who was sent to the south by Wuxian. Speaking of his brother-in-law, with the end of the honeymoon period between the Zhao family and Wu Guo, he gradually became distrusted, especially Wu Zixu was the most suspicious of him, Xing Ao was in a difficult situation, and he already had the idea of returning to the north, and when this battle was over, it was time to call him back......

If you ask who Zhao Wuxian fears the most in the world, it is Wu Zixu, a strong-willed avenger and a virtuous minister who has worked hard for the strength of Wu Guo.

Even if it was just out of admiration for him, it was enough for him to keep Wang Sunsheng by his side, not to mention, if he remembered correctly, this Wang Sunsheng was the future Bai Gongsheng, the ancestor of the slaughtering god Bai Qi......

Bai Qi, Zhao Kuo, Chang Ping......

Thinking of Wang Sunsheng's faint connection with this place, Zhao Wuxian smiled dumbly, yes, he is the best witness to this war.

Wang Sunsheng didn't know what Zhao Wuxian was thinking, he was still seriously analyzing the war situation, and it could be seen that he was indeed very talented after being taught by Wu Zixu and Sun Wu, two military experts, no wonder he would become a great enemy of Ye Gongzigao in history, and almost became the king of Chu.

"A battle of this scale, the breadth and time-consuming are very different from the small battle, the two sides face each other across the Danshui Valley, our base camp is the Hyun clan, and the base camp of the enemy commander Zhi Yao is in the Light Wolf City, dozens of miles from north to south, more than ten miles from east to west, all of which are battlefield ......"

Zhao Wuxian nodded, he was right, in terms of time, since the pioneer arrived here, the two sides have been facing each other for almost three months......

The Zhao army attacked this side from the two roads of Changzi and Taigu, and the forward Tian Benbu defeated the defenders of the Zhi clan stationed in the Hyun clan, driving them all the way to the light wolf city. Zhi Yao's reaction was not slow, and he soon defeated the adventurous Tian Ben and drove him east of Danshui again, and the two sides continued to increase their troops in this area, so it slowly developed into the current large-scale confrontation.

and the offense and defense of Qin and Zhao in the Battle of Changping in history, completely lost their position.

Correspondingly, the financial resources and food consumed by the army are also a huge amount, if it weren't for Zhao Wuxian's three autumns, so that the government stock has a year's worth of food, plus the claims obtained from Qi, Wei, Cao, and Ju, if it weren't for Ji Ran's plan to live within his means, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to sustain this war......

So he can be sure that his opponent will definitely be tougher!

Zhao Wuxian said with a smile: "So far, the Zhi clan is still suffering, just when the energy of the other generation is attracted here, last month, the post Wuzheng Sima has recovered Jinyang, and if it drags on, maybe Zhi Yao will have to receive an emergency from Xinjiang." This is also the reason why the enemy's movements have been abnormal recently, and Zhiyao can't hold it back. ”

At this moment, Zhiyao must find an opportunity to take the initiative to attack, otherwise, he can only be dragged by Zhao Jun here! Although their grain had to be transported from the east of Taihang, the Zhi clan only had one Hedong and Hexi left, and they could not fully control it. Zhao Wuxian has Hanoi, Hebei, Weiguo, Lu, Song, and Sishang, and he can also buy grain from Zhou's room! Tear down the east wall and make up the west wall, and you can consume them alive!

Seeing that the decisive battle was imminent, he was proud in his heart, and said to Wang Sunsheng:

"Two years ago, I was a corner of the world, and now, my enemies are in the same situation."

Feng Rin smiled and said: "The Jin Kingdom has three points, and the general has already won two." ”

Wang Sunsheng also said: "However, now just wait for the Korean army to arrive with the last batch of soldiers and food, our army will be ready, just waiting for the enemy to collide head-on." "Han Buxin is dead, and now that Han Hu has become the head of the Han family, for the land promised by Zhao Wuxian after the victory, he can only grit his teeth and squeeze out the last bit of war potential of the Han clan and join in. Speaking of which, the Battle of Changping in history is inseparable from South Korea, but it is a pity that the other protagonist Qin Guo is in the chaos and silence after the death of Qin Aigong, and he watched the whole process as if nothing was in this Jin civil war.

This reminded Zhao Wuxian, and he turned back to Feng Rin and said, "Prepare the paper, ink, pen and inkstone, I want to write a letter to my sworn brother, I need his assistance!" ”

Twenty or fifty years later, the Battle of Changping was the death knell of the decline of the Zhao State, but this time, it was the clarion call for the Zhao family to announce its rise, unify the Jin State and finally turn the family into a country, and Zhao Wuxian swore that the Battle of Changping would only have this one and only one! Even if he does whatever it takes, he will win! (To be continued.) )
