Changping, a small place that was originally unknown, has now become the focus of the war between Qin and Zhao, and on this half-bowl-shaped boundary, the two sides invariably chose the plain at the bottom of the bowl as the final battlefield. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Zhao wanted to resist Qin's advance here, and if possible, even wanted to use Changping as a springboard for a counterattack. The Qin State wanted to finish its work in one battle, and was unwilling to attack the past place by place, so he allowed the Zhao State to continue to increase troops to Changping. Therefore, in the early stage of the war, the two sides seemed to have a tacit understanding, and although the strangulation between the scouts intensified, there was no large-scale military conflict.

"General Bai is really good, our Houqin soldiers are still not as fast as you! Hahaha! ”

In the big tent, the burly Dianjun sat on the side of Bai Qi, and behind him were Ao Lie and other generals, after taking Hanoi County, the main force of the Dianjun did not enter the city to station, but left a force to garrison and then continued to advance, but even so, it was still a few days later than Baiqi.

"General Dian, it's too humble to say that, your Houqin army has fought one more city than me, if not, it must be faster than me." Bai Qi smiled and said, "I just don't know if your king has any explanation before your army sets off?" ”

Dian Jun squinted his eyes, and said in his heart that Bai Qi is also a clever person, Lao Ying has just decided to be the king, and he has already begun to call him the king here, as for this explanation...... Seeing the Dian army, he said with a smile: "When Lao Dian sent out the army, the king once said that this battle is led by your Qin State, and we are only responsible for assisting, so the 70,000 sons and daughters under my command are now all looking forward to General Bai!" ”

"Good!"

Bai Qi is not polite, directly take advantage of the slope to get off the donkey, in fact, he is also worried about a problem of inconsistency, if the Dian army really insists on the command, then Bai Qi can only exclude the Later Qin army, rather than use, because the most taboo on the battlefield is the command is inconsistent, once there are two contradictory orders, it will cause chaos at best, and the whole army will be defeated, so Bai Qi will never tolerate this kind of thing.

Now that the words have been spoken, although they are not particularly familiar with each other, there is no barrier, and the generals on Bai Qi's side looked at their allies with much kinder eyes, and at this time, they heard Bai Qi say.

"According to our detailed report, King Zhao has now launched a conscription order, and all men over the age of ten and under the age of sixty-five in the entire territory of Zhao must be conscripted into the army, it seems that Li Mu's delay in returning has caused King Zhao's panic, and he has begun to do whatever it takes."

"Who is Zhao Kuo, the commander of the Zhao army on the other side, why haven't you heard of it before?"

"Him?" Bai Qi shook his head with a smile and replied, "Then Zhao Kuo can be regarded as a celebrity in Zhao Kingdom!" This man can read at the age of three, write at the age of six, and have been familiar with all the military books at the age of ten. ”

"Oh? I would like to hear about it. Dian Jun was stunned when he heard this, just such a prodigy, it is normal for anything to happen to him, and it is really good to listen to things that can make a general like Bai Qi interested.

"Because Li Mu was blocked by us in Taiyuan County, unable to return to Handan, Hanoi, Hedong County and lost one after another, King Zhao had no choice but to re-enable the veteran Lian Po, although Lian Po is old, but with his prestige in the army, it is naturally no problem to command the army, but at this time, some people questioned in advance, thinking that Lian Po is old and can no longer be responsible for this great responsibility, and the person who raised this question is Zhao Kuo!"

"Poof!" When the pawn heard this, he couldn't help but laugh!

"Just with his twenty-year-old doll, he dares to question a famous general like Lian Po, and the old man Lian Po has killed more people than he has killed chickens! Besides, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and it is not something that can be played by reading a few military books! ”

Seeing the indignant appearance of the Dianjun, Bai Qi couldn't help but smile and said: "Yes, as long as you have brought soldiers and seen blood, you know these common senses, but Zhao Kuo doesn't know, those civil officials don't know, and more importantly, King Zhao doesn't know!" At that time, the old and the young were debating in the court, and Lian Po was the main guard, and he wanted to use the Shangdang County as a barrier to hold us back, and at the same time hoarded grain and grass on a large scale, and wanted to have a protracted war with us. And Zhao Kuo thought otherwise, Shangdang County had gathered nearly 450,000 troops, and the daily consumption of grain and grass was a terrifying number, although Lian Po's method was good, but it was to injure the enemy by 1,000 and lose 800. Therefore, Zhao Kuo is the main attack! He thinks that our Qin army is only more than 200,000, and there is no city to defend, and the Zhao army's foot soldiers are powerful in the world, and a single soldier is enough to compete with our Qin soldiers, so he advocates concentrating superior forces to surround us, and then grind us little by little like a grinding plate. ”

"Cut, what a scholar!" Dian Jun pursed his lips disdainfully, and took over the conversation: "Fighting, what is important is the time, place, and people, not that whoever has more people can win, if it is really like what he said, we don't have to fight, just count which side has more people!" However, the old man Lian Po, although he did not see the situation on the battlefield, made the most favorable decision based on experience alone, if he really fell into a protracted war, we are afraid that we will not be able to bear it. ”

Bai nodded and said with a wry smile: "That's true, our grain route is really too long, and we are not 200,000 soldiers, Wang Di has already brought 100,000 soldiers over in the name of escorting grain and grass, plus the friendly troops of Hou Qin, our troops are only a lot more than the Zhao soldiers on the opposite side, but in this way, the pressure on logistics has also increased, we can only fight quickly, and we must not drag into a protracted war." ”

"Well, now it seems that Zhao Kuo won Lian Po, otherwise it wouldn't be him who led the army to fight."

"Yes, Zhao Kuoling has sharp teeth, quotes scriptures, and speaks in a set, how could Lian Po say anything about him, he has all the experience that he has exchanged for blood, how can he find it in the book of war, but in this way, he will naturally lose the upper hand, and Zhao Guo does need a big victory to stabilize the situation now, in the eyes of King Zhao, a quick victory is much more advantageous than Lian Po's steady rhythm, he can't afford to wait. Especially in his eyes, Zhao Jun occupies the advantage of numbers, even if he uses people, he can pile us to death. That's why he finally made up his mind. ”

Dian Jun smiled coldly and said: "It's also fortunate that he sent Zhao Kuo, otherwise we would have to retreat, the defeat of Zhao is decided, let that plague chicken see the tragedy of the battlefield." (To be continued.) )
