Although Wei and Zhao went to war, both countries only sent 50,000 troops to fight as a test!

This is like two peerless masters, both of them are not clear about each other's strength, before the real competition, first a few tricks, a small test, so as to find out the true strength of the other party, if the other party is weaker than yourself, then you don't have to be polite, you can kill the ring, directly take the other party's life, if the other party is equal to their own strength, then it is necessary to be cautious, otherwise, it will be a life-and-death decisive battle, even if you win, you will be greatly injured. In this way, it will be a competition between the snipe and the clam and the fisherman will benefit, which will only make the third person gain advantage in vain.

Therefore, this war between Wei and Zhao was only a tentative "skirmish" battle, and neither hands were exerted with all their might.

However, the "skirmish" battles between the big countries are also fierce, enough to shock the small countries.

At the beginning of the battle, Wei relied on chariots to charge, and the heavily armored army was like a torrent of steel, instantly breaking the formation of Zhao's infantry army, and at the same time, Wei had Shenwei cannons as cover, Zhao's cavalry charge was suppressed by cannons, and the horses were frightened, and the cavalry troops were scattered and retreated in an instant.

In the early stages of the war, Wei gradually gained the upper hand and was overwhelmed. However, not long after, Zhao sent their Divine Arrow Heavenly Soldiers, who rode on the back of the "Cloud Eagle" and were equipped with Zhao's most sophisticated crossbow arrows, which could not only fire dozens of arrows in succession, but also had a long range and extremely penetrating power. The most important point is that the Divine Arrow Celestial Soldiers can attack from the sky, and they are mobile and flexible, which is difficult to guard.

Zhao's Divine Arrow Heavenly Soldiers completely ignored the Wei chariots and cavalry charges, they directly swept the forward troops, flew from the air to the middle of the Wei army and the logistics troops, and then launched an air attack, blocking the connection between the Wei army's forward troops and the middle army, and the forward troops instantly lost their command. Although the chariots of the Wei army charged bravely, but the flexibility was much weaker, and when the forward chariot troops of the Wei army returned to the reinforcement of the middle army, the middle lane infantry army had suffered heavy losses, and all the logistics grain and grass were burned.

Although the infantry army of Wei prepared the shield in advance, and specially created a huge shield with a thickness of ten centimeters, it still failed to stop the divine arrow heavenly soldiers of Zhao State. Moreover, although the Shenwei cannon of Wei is powerful, it cannot hit the cloud eagle flying in the air, the cloud eagle not only flies high, but also very flexible, extremely fast, and the cannonball fired by the cannon is like a bird in the sky with a stone, and it can't hit at all. On the contrary, the Divine Arrow Heavenly Soldiers aimed at the gunners who operated the cannons, and shot all those gunners to death, and the cannons became useless scrap metal without the control of the gunners!

Seeing that Zhao's divine arrow heavenly soldiers were so powerful, Wei had no choice but to order the entire army to retreat. Zhao Guo wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue, but in the previous battle, Zhao's infantry and cavalry had already been destroyed by Wei's chariots and artillery, and the losses were serious, and it was difficult to pursue.

In this battle, both Wei and Zhao suffered a lot of losses, and both saw the strength of the other party's army and were afraid of each other. After this war, the two countries were much more peaceful, and there was no more fighting. Wei and Zhao are very clear that if the two countries really do their best to fight, no one knows who will kill the deer.

A smart person will not fight a battle that he is not sure of! Therefore, although Wei and Zhao were hostile to each other, they did not dare to start a war.

......

Wei Yingnan stopped, he stood in the front yard, the night wind blowing his black hair, and below was a pair of cold and bright eyes, Wei Yingnan looked at the night and said, "Xue Huai was killed by Zhao Guoren, which is not a bad thing. If Xue Huai didn't die, but was captured by Zhao Guosheng, it would be the worst. ”

Hearing this, Xun Yang was a little puzzled and asked, "Childe, why is General Xue dead, but it's not a bad thing?"

Wei Yingnan snorted coldly and said, "Hmph, if Xue Huai is captured by Zhao Guosheng and sent back to Wei, you say, what will this son do with Xue Huai?"

"This ......" was asked like this, and Xun Yang was suddenly speechless.

"If this son forgives Xue Huai, then it just means that I sent Xue Huai to inquire about the intelligence of Zhao State. If this son punishes Xue Huai severely, kills him, and kills his own subordinates with his own hands, then I will become a ruthless and ruthless son. In the future, who will serve me with all his life? Wei Yingnan analyzed.

After listening to Wei Yingnan's words, Xun Yang suddenly realized that if Xue Huai didn't die, it would become a hot potato, and his death was much simpler.

Wei Yingnan continued to analyze: "It can be seen that the people of Zhao killed Xue Huai just to give this son a warning, and they don't want to make a big deal about it. ”

"Childe is wise!" Xun Yang said in admiration.

Thinking of this, Wei Yingnan suddenly asked, "Is it an edict from King Zhao himself to kill Xue Huai?"

Hearing this, Xun Yang took a closer look at the secret letter, and then reported back: "According to the secret letter, it was the son of Zhao Guo, Zhao Hao, who personally released an arrow and killed General Xue Huai with one arrow. ”

"Zhao Guogongzi, Zhao Luxury!" Hearing this, Wei Yingnan's face was solemn, and he had a little scruple on his face about this Zhao Guogongzi, "I have heard a little about this name." I heard that the prince of Zhao Guo, Zhao Hao, is invincible in the magic arrow, and once shot through a meteorite that fell from the sky with an arrow, and is known as the first arrow of Zhao State!"

Xun Yang bowed slightly, and said, "Weichen has also heard about this. According to the news that Wei Chen has heard from Zhao Guotan in recent years, Zhao Guogongzi, Zhao Hao, is extremely talented, and is a rare genius in the world, although he is only thirteen years old, he is already the strongest student in Zhao Guo's martial arts academy. Oh, by the way, the secret letter also said that Zhao Hao also participated in this 'natural selection'. ”

Hearing this, Wei Yingnan suddenly became interested, and hurriedly asked, "So what is his strength?"

Xun Yang carefully read the secret letter word by word, and then said, "This...... The secret letter said that because the people of Zhao did not allow our Wei army to enter the city, they did not see the process of 'natural selection' with their own eyes, but I heard news from the capital of Zhao Guoguo that Zhao Guogongzi, Zhao Hao, successfully passed the selection with the strength of 'one force and one day'. ”

Xun Yang reported truthfully according to the content of the secret letter.

Hearing this, Wei Yingnan frowned, his eyes were a little puzzled, and then said: "One power of the sun, Zhao Hao is known as the 'first arrow of the Zhao country', when he is a genius in the world, how can it be the strength of a mere 'one force of the sun'? This kind of strength is only the top fifty in the Wei State Martial Arts Academy at most. ”

With doubts in his heart, he thought slowly for a while, Wei Yingnan finally understood, and he said: "I understand, Zhao Hao must have deliberately hidden his strength. The 'Heavenly Selection' selection only needs to reach the Yueyao level in strength to pass, Zhao Hao knows very well that his selection results will definitely be heard by our Wei Guotan, so he deliberately hides his strength to confuse us. ”

"What Childe said is very true, although it is not a top strength, it is also very strong, and it is very suitable to hide the real strength. Xun Yang echoed and said, "I'm afraid it's not just Zhao Hao, other Zhao students must also be hiding their strength." ”

"Yili Riyao!" Wei Yingnan repeated these words, and suddenly his expression froze, as if he had thought of something, and said, "Why is it Yili Riyao again? Yang Ming is also Yili Riyao, could it be that he also hides his true strength?"

Thinking of this, Wei Yingnan's face suddenly became grim, he raised his eyes, looked at Guo Chuan and Xun Yang, and asked sharply: "This son asks you, you fought with Yang Ming just now, what is Yang Ming's strength?

Hearing Wei Yingnan's question, Guo Chuan and Xun Yang raised their heads, glanced at each other, exchanged glances, and after a moment of silence, Guo Chuan said first: "Hui Gongzi, I fought with that Yang Ming kid just now, although he was very fast and had dodged the attack of the last general several times, but the last general thought that it was not just speed. ”

Xun Yang continued: "Wechen also used witchcraft 'soul betrayal' to make Yang Ming hit, but when fighting halfway, the right hand that was originally betrayed suddenly stopped attacking Yang Ming, and Wechen faintly felt that there was an inexplicable force in Yang Ming's body, which prevented the 'soul betrayal'. ”

Listening to the remarks of the two, Wei Yingnan asked directly: "So, what do you mean ......?"

Guo Chuan and Xun Yang glanced at each other, and said in unison: "Weichen (the last general) thinks that Yang Ming's strength is definitely more than one strength. ”
