Chapter 321: Attacking Quyan

After crossing Helan Mountain, the boundless yellow sand finally disappeared, and was replaced by an endless grassland, which was later called the Yinchuan Plain.

The reason for the formation of the Hetao Plain is similar to that of the Helan Mountains, which blocks the cold air from the north and west and the erosion of the desert, coupled with the irrigation of the river, forms the rich Yinchuan Plain, which is the western loop of the Hetao.

Qu Yan originally lived in the southern part of Xitao, on the east bank of the river, close to the location of the Qin State. Later, he was beaten by Qin Guofat, and moved west for dozens of miles. Later, he was beaten by the Xiongnu and Zhao Guofat, and moved to the foot of Helan Mountain.

It's not that they don't want to continue to migrate, but that the desert is in the west, the Qin state in the south and southeast, the desert in the north, and the Zhao state in the north of the desert, and there is no place to migrate.

When Zhao crossed Helan Mountain, Qu Yan finally received the news of Zhao's attack.

In the king's tent, the leaders of the major tribes of Shuyan gathered together, their faces were full of sorrow, everyone look at me, I look at you, and then there was a long sigh. Even if there are many contradictions between them, in the face of a strong enemy at this time, they have to choose to report to the group to keep warm.

However, they couldn't even beat the Xiongnu, and the Xiongnu were vulnerable in the face of Zhao, and now it was their turn to face Zhao, even if they were in a group, what was the use? It's just a futile struggle.

"Do those Zhao people still refuse to let us go after all?" King Quyan angrily slapped the table with his palm and said in despair.

There was no answer, and the whole tent was silent, except for the crackling sound of grease-stained torches.

"Let's figure it out." King Qu Yan collapsed on the throne and said slowly, "No matter who it is, as long as it can help me Qu Yan repel the Zhao army, this king will immediately give up the throne to him. This king will do what he says, and you can be a witness."

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and no one speaks. King Quyan was defeated by Qin last year, and then lost to the Xiongnu this year, which led to a great loss of Quyan's strength and his own prestige.

If it was before, everyone would still covet the throne under his ass, and it was even possible to raise troops, but forget it now, this position is a hot soldering iron.

"King, we might as well ask the Qin State for help." After a long time, someone finally spoke.

"We only had a big war with the Qin State last year, how could the Qin State send troops to help us." Someone immediately retorted. The relationship between Qu Yan and Qin was not much better than that with Zhao, because of their proximity, the two had been at war before.

"The Zhao army is only one day away from my Qu Yan, and even if it is too late to ask for help from the Qin State." King Qu Yan shook his head, "And this king has received news that the Central Plains countries are attacking the Qin State, and the Qin State is mainly focused on dealing with the Central Plains countries, so he can't be distracted to help us."

"King, let's make peace. I, Quyan, are thousands of miles away from Zhao State, and Zhao State can't control it even if it is defeated. Moreover, the minister heard that the countries of the Central Plains have the best face. As long as I declare myself a vassal to Zhao and give some cattle and sheep as gifts, there is still a great hope for Zhao to withdraw from the army." A minister named Fu Liti said.

"Now I can only try, hey." King Quyan sighed deeply. ….

Who would have thought that Qu Yan, who was thriving a few years ago, began to decline sharply from last year, and today, it is facing the risk of losing the country.

The world is unpredictable.

When Fu Liti saw Zhao Kuo, Zhao Kuo was sitting on the ground with the soldiers, eating barbecue around the fire. However, Fu Liti did not dare to despise it at all.

"Foreign minister Fu Liti pays a visit to King Zhao." Fu Liti slapped his clothes and said with a straight face.

"What is the matter with the gentleman?" Zhao Kuo wiped the oil stains from the corners of his mouth and asked.

"The foreign minister has come here to sue for peace." Fu Liti said.

"You said you asked for peace?" Zhao Kuo looked at the envoy in front of him and said jokingly.

"Before, I was coerced by the Xiongnu, so I helped the Xiongnu to attack Zhao, which was my fault for Quyan. This time, the foreign minister brought 5,000 fine horses, 5,000 cattle, and 10,000 sheep. Ask for the forgiveness of King Zhao. And I, Quyan, am willing to be a vassal to Zhao, and if the king of Zhao is not at ease, he can send officials to my Quyan. I just ask Zhao Guo to let me go

A horse." Fu Liti arched his hand and said.

"If the gift is accepted by the outnumbered, the stationed officials don't need it. But the widow has a better idea." Zhao Kuo said.

"Speak, my lord." Fu Liti was happy in his heart, as long as he received the gift, things would be much easier, but he was afraid that if King Zhao didn't accept the gift and the oil and salt didn't enter, then Qu Yan would only have to wait for death.

"Please ask the king of Quyan and all the people of Quyan to move to my Zhao country." Zhao Kuo said in a deep voice.

"Zhao ...... Zhao Wang...... Are you kidding......" Fu Liti's face changed instantly, and he said in a panic.

"You think this king is joking with you?" Zhao Kuo looked at Fu Liti coldly.

"This ...... What's the difference between this and destroying me?" Fu Liti said.

Zhao Kuo didn't speak, the meaning was obvious - Lao Tzu just wanted to destroy you.

"Outer ...... The minister withdrew." Fu Liti hurriedly saluted and fled.

"Great King, the minister suggested not to give Quyan any time to react, and directly forcibly marched all the way to attack the central tribe of Quyan." Le Yi clenched his fists and said.

There is still a difference between attacking Shuyan and facing the Xiongnu, the Xiongnu are all soldiers, and they are not fighting locally, their wives and children are in the rear, and after the defeat, they will not inspire the fighting spirit to fight to the death, but think about how to escape back.

But Qu Yan is fighting on his own, and behind him is his wife and children fighting side by side with them, if they are prepared, Zhao Jun wants to take it down, I am afraid it will take a lot of effort.

"Do as General Le Yi says." Zhao Kuo ordered.

After all the Zhao troops received the order, they immediately turned over and ran towards Qu Yan.

It didn't take long for Zhao Jun to encounter the first Quyan tribe, and after solving it in less than a quarter of an hour, he continued on his way. And then the second, the third...... Until they saw a vast and well-guarded tribe.

"King, it's not good, King, it's not good, Zhao Jun is coming." One of the clansmen rushed into the tent in a panic and shouted.

"What?" Fu Liti almost jumped up from the ground in shock, he had just rushed back from Zhao Jun, how could Zhao Jun follow so quickly.

"Where's the hit?" King Quyan stood up from his throne and asked urgently.

"Hit ...... It's at the door."

"Beat the drums, gather the whole clan, and fight to the death." King Quyan shouted.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The sound of three heavy drums resounded like a rituals in summer, and soon, all the tribes of Quyan beat the drums. Countless adult men, and even healthy women, rushed out of the tribe with various weapons, and rushed towards the Zhao army desperately under the leadership of King Quyan.
