"Thank you for your help." Zhao Kuo leaned over and saluted.

Since Le Yi, Tian Dan, and Pang Xuan chose to stay, they must have decided to help Zhao Kuo.

Le Yi and Tian Dan glanced at each other, although these two people were old rivals, they were the ones who knew each other best, and they could see each other's thoughts at a glance.

Compared with Zhao Kuo and Zhao Wang Dan, it is obvious that the former is more talented, what Zhao Kuo lacked before was just an identity, but now the identity is there, in Zhao Kuo's words, "This Zhao Wang's position, he Zhao Dan can sit, Zhao Kuo can't do it?" ”

And with the relationship between Le Yi, Tian Dan and Zhao Kuo, it is more in the interests of the two to let Zhao Kuo take the position.

"What are you going to do next?" Le Yi asked.

"How long will it take for Sima Cuo and Wei Ran's reinforcements to arrive in Hexi?" Zhao Kuo looked at Liu Ping.

"It takes about ten to thirteen days for a quick march." Liu Ping said.

"We must let Qin sue for peace within ten days, otherwise we will withdraw our troops and return to Handan." Zhao Kuo said solemnly.

Sima Cuo and Wei Ran were both famous generals of the Qin State.

In particular, Sima Cuo, at the age of 30 he pioneered the frontier, at the age of 40 he killed the Quartet, at the age of 50 he was unparalleled in the world, and at the age of 60 he defended one side.

Now that he is eighty years old, the old man is talking about juvenile madness, and there is a little cold light.

Only 50,000 troops defeated 300,000 Chu troops, except that the killing was not as good as Bai Qi, and other places were not inferior to Bai Qi.

If the coalition forces can't solve the Qin state before the two arrive, the difficulty will be greatly increased after that.

Zhao Kuo didn't know what King Zhao would do next, and in order to avoid long nights and dreams, he had to rush back as soon as possible. And his mother and younger siblings are in Handan, I don't know if Ben has taken them out, Zhao Kuo is a little worried.

But now he can't leave the Han and Wei armies here, and withdraw by himself, so he can only set a time.

"It's not easy to defeat the Qin army, it's almost impossible if you only have ten days." Le Yi said with a frown.

The commander of the Qin army is not an unknown person, but Wu Anjun is from nothing, and the commander's soldiers are not much less than those of the coalition army, and he is still the defender, occupying a favorable position, it is very difficult to defeat, let alone ten days.

"The advantage of the Qin army lies in Bai Qi, although our three Jin Dynasty are like rain, but we dare to say that we will definitely be able to defeat Bai Qi, and there is no one." Zhao Kuo said.

Neither Le Yi nor Tian Dan refuted, although they were not afraid of Bai Qi, they did not dare to say that they would definitely be able to defeat Bai Qi.

"But the disadvantage of the Qin army is that there is only one Bai Qi, as long as you find a way to bypass Bai Qi, the Qin State will definitely be defeated." Zhao Kuo pointed to Xianyang on the map and said. "So I want to get past the Qin army and attack Xianyang directly."

tomato

"Crossing the Qin army? Directly attack Xianyang? Pang Xuan was a little puzzled, the Qin army was in front of the coalition army, how could it be possible to hit Xianyang if the Qin army was not resolved.

"Bai Qi spreads scouts along the river, almost five steps and one sentry, ten steps and one step, as long as he attacks, he will be discovered, but at the junction of the river and Weishui, because of the turbulent current, it has not frozen before, and Bai Qi has almost no scouts there."

"But when I made my rounds today, I found that it was already frozen, and in the current situation, the ice would be enough for a large army to pass through for two days at most. So I'm going to ......," Zhao Kuo said, pointing to the map.

When fighting, the defender does have an advantage, but there is a saying that if you defend for a long time, you will lose.

The Yellow River is one or two hundred miles long from Fenshui to the bend, and if it is not frozen, the coalition forces can only choose to erect pontoon bridges if they want to cross the river, and the Qin army only needs to defend a few major points.

But now it is the middle of winter, the ice on the river is already able to pass through the army, and the coalition forces can attack from anywhere at any time.

Le Yi's eyes lit up, and after listening to it, he said: "Bai Qi is not an ordinary general, two days is enough for him to discover this problem, but compared with us, the strength of the Qin army is somewhat insufficient, and we can ......."

"If you hope that you say so, it will be a wax sacrifice after two days, so it is better for us to ...... directly. We have more troops than the Qin army, and no matter what the Qin army chooses, we have enough strength to deal with it. Tian Dan also stretched out his head, with a sinister smile on his face.

"I think it'......," Pang Xuan also participated.

It wasn't until the third watch in the middle of the night that the three of them left the camp satisfied.

"Lord, this is a secret letter from King Zhao to Lian Po." After everyone left, Liu Ping took out a letter from his arms, not a bamboo slip, but a cloth, which was only a very small piece when put away, and it was difficult to find it hidden in his clothes.

He intercepted the letter before, but Chu Jun's matter was more urgent, so he took it out first, but he didn't expect to pull out such a big matter in the end.

"What about the messenger?" Zhao Kuo opened the letter and was not surprised by the contents of the letter.

"On the way back, I fell into an ice cave and drowned." Liu Ping said steadily.

Zhao Kuo glanced at Liu Ping and did not speak.

"Drown, drown, this letter has bought us a few more days, at least before the news is sent back, King Zhao should not have any other actions" Zhao Kuo threw the letter into the brazier, a flame burst out, and the letter instantly turned to ashes.

"Lord, do you want to ...... Lian Po" Liu Ping made a gesture of decapitation and said viciously.

"No, although he won't help me, he won't help King Zhao either. After that, he will also be the general of my Zhao Kingdom. Zhao Kuo shook his head.

He is not going to kill Lian Po because of this trivial matter, and when he becomes the king of Zhao in the future, the more talents the better, how can he cut off his arms.

"No." Liu Ping leaned over and said.

"By the way, is there any news from Ben?" Zhao Kuo asked.

"Not yet." Liu Ping shook his head. "But no news now is good news, if King Zhao has already controlled the old lady and the others, Ben will definitely send the news over as soon as possible. There is no news now, it should be a way to resettle the old lady, and there will be news after the placement is completed. ”

"As it should be."

……

The Qin army battalion.

Bai Qi's face became even thinner, and he stood next to the map, thinking about how the coalition would attack.

After leading the troops for so many years, this is the first time he has played a defensive battle, and he is somewhat uncomfortable.

"Dashuai, Sanjin sent someone to deliver a letter." Wang Yi walked in, holding a roll of bamboo slips in his hand.

"Sanjin actually sent a letter? Show me. ”

Bai Qi was a little surprised, the two armies have been fighting for so long, and Qin sent a lot of envoys to Zhao or the camp of the coalition army, and Zhao sent people over for the first time after being deceived by Qin after asking for peace.

Wang Yu handed the letter to Bai Qi.

"A three-day truce on the day of the sacrifice so that the soldiers can sacrifice to their ancestors? What do you think? Bai Qi looked at Wang Di.

He thought that Sanjin would take advantage of the victory to pursue, but he didn't expect that there would be a three-day truce.

"Things have the heart of embracing their roots, people have the feeling of thinking about their ancestors, and the wax sacrifice is a Chinese tradition and should be allowed." Wang Yi thought for a moment and said.

If it was the Spring and Autumn Period, the war would have been fought at this time, and it would have been impossible to let Sanjin retreat now.

If there is only a three-day truce, it will be acceptable to both sides.

"Since that's the case, then let's agree, but be vigilant to prevent the Sanjin sneak attack." Bai Qi said.

"No."
