Chapter 565: Keep Rushing Forward
The Zhao army, like the Qin army, was the strongest in the Chinese army, and the two wings were weak, as long as the Chinese army was broken, the two wings could not form combat effectiveness, and defeat was inevitable.
What worries Wang Yi is the combat effectiveness of the Zhao army.
and Han and Wei have always been pressed and beaten by the Qin State, and they are congenitally weak in the face of the Qin army.
Zhao had contacts in the war with Qin, and did not fall behind, and in recent years, there was a tendency to counter-pressure Qin, and the momentum of the soldiers was extremely high.
Wang Yi even suspected that the two thousand elite cavalry of the Zhao State who rushed to the front all possessed internal qi.
"There is no doubt that these cavalrymen do all possess internal qi." Lu Buwei stood beside Wang Yi with a somewhat solemn expression.
As the planner and executor of the strategy of "destroying the Zhou State, seizing Jiuding, and dividing the Three Jins", Lü Buwei did not stay in Xianyang, but followed Wang Yi on the expedition as a military advisor with the army, earning the first military merit in his life.
He was not surprised by the strength of the Zhao army, such a legion was also available in the Qin State, but he was a little surprised that the Zhao State would use such an elite legion to support the Zhou State.
This is not the era of the Zhou king's co-rulership, and the survival of the Zhou State does not mean much to the countries, which is why the Qin State dared to send troops to destroy the Zhou.
In fact, it is exactly like this, except for Han Wei, the two guys who felt the cold of their lips and teeth, and Zhao Guo, no country sent troops to aid Zhou.
To put it mildly, for Zhao Guo, the Zhou State is not as valuable as these 10,000 elite soldiers, but Zhao Guo still sent troops over.
In addition, there is also a news that only a very few people know, Zhao Wang Zhao Kuo has not appeared for a long time.
The news released by Zhao Guo said that he was on a parade, and there was also gossip that Zhao Kuo's cultivation of immortals had reached a critical juncture and was in retreat. There are also people who say that Zhao Kuo is sick, and even that he is terminally ill, and the most outrageous statement is that King Zhao has passed away, but the court of Zhao is worried about chaos, so he does not mourn.
Some of the news is reasonable, while others are very.
But no matter which statement is made, it confirms the fact that Zhao Wang Zhao Kuo has not shown up for a long time.
As a monarch, it is obviously abnormal to not show up for a long time.
Qin sent troops to attack Sanchuan, in addition to strategic needs, but also to test Zhao.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he was tempted, Zhao Guo responded: send troops to support Zhou Guo.
Lü Buwei had a feeling that Zhao seemed to be trying his best to contain the development of Qin, even if he did not hesitate to lose some benefits.
"The background of the Zhao Kingdom is indeed terrifying." Wang Di's right hand rested on the hilt of his sword, his eyes were firmly fixed on the battlefield, and he didn't dare to relax for a moment.
To tell the truth, he looked down on Lü Buwei very much in his heart, on the one hand, he was influenced by the traditional thinking of the Qin State and looked down on businessmen, on the other hand, as a general who relied on military merits to climb up step by step, he didn't like to rely on "crooked ways" to rise to power.
Lü Buwei happened to occupy both.
However, even if Wang Yi looks down on Lü Buwei again, he will never show it on the battlefield.
The great contradictions, as long as they go to the battlefield, they must all be put down, and everything will be talked about when they are on the battlefield.
"Also, if I'm not mistaken, the two wings of the Zhao army should not be the Zhao army, but the Han army and the Wei army." Lu Buwei pointed in the direction of Mang Mao and Storm Luan and said.
When he learned that the number of Zhao troops had increased significantly, he was very strange, no matter how unreliable the information of the Qin State was, it would not be so wrong.
So he swept the army in front of him with his talent.
As a result, three different colors appeared in the left, middle and right armies, among which Zhao Jun was the brightest, indicating that he was most suitable as a teammate, followed by Wei Jun, and Han Jun was the most dark.
Combined with the fact that only the Three Jin Dynasty sent troops to support the Zhou State, Lü Buwei immediately deduced that the army in front of him was the Three Jin Coalition Army, which also explained why the Zhao army would increase several times, and the cooperation between the left and right armies and the Chinese army was not very tacit.
"The army of Xingyang is ......," Wang Di's heart was shocked.
"It's just an empty camp." Lu Buwei pursed his lips.
Obviously, it was impossible for the Qin scouts to go to Han Wei's camp to count, and when they saw the camp from afar, they thought that the army was still there
。
It is even more impossible to run to Zhao Jun to count, and he doesn't even dare to get close, so he can only wait for Zhao Jun to leave, and infer it according to the number of buried stoves.
However, Qin Jun had already learned the approximate number of Zhao Jun before, and he would inevitably relax his vigilance in this regard in the future, and would not pay too much attention to whether the number of stoves increased or decreased.
In addition, Lü Buwei guessed that the Sanjin coalition army was likely to arrive all the way in a hurry, and the Qin army scouts needed to make a long detour in order to avoid the detection of the Sanjin scouts, and even if there was news, it could not be delivered in time.
"I didn't expect Coach Zhao Jun to have such thoughts." Wang Yi said in a deep voice, his face was not very good-looking.
The last time he was put in such a place, it was still in the party, Zhao Kuo used the Zhao army to drag the Qin army, and the golden cicada broke out of his shell to persuade the three kingdoms of Han, Wei and Chu to command the nominal four-nation coalition army, and the actual three-Jin coalition army defeated the Qin army.
This time, he thought that he only had to face the Zhao army, but it turned out to be the Sanjin coalition again.
"The boss should be Lecheng, Zhao Guo used to be second only to Lian Po's general." Lu Buwei said, how to say that he is also half of the Zhao country, although he has not been back for several years, but as a talent owner, his memory is still very good, even if he has only seen it from afar in the crowd, he can still remember it when he meets it again.
"What is his power?" Wang Di asked.
"I don't know." Lu Buwei shook his head, he was just a businessman when he was in the Zhao Kingdom, how could he know about such a confidential matter.
Although the Qin State has been collecting information about the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs of Zhao State over the years, the number of times Lecheng led the troops to fight is not very much, and it was a long time ago, which is particularly troublesome to collect, and it is difficult to deduce Lecheng's ability from the fragmented information.
In addition, Qin Guo's main energy was not focused on Lecheng, and Zhao Guo was more threatening than Lecheng.
"Spread out to the wings." On the other side, Le Cheng saw the Qin army's chariot rushing over from a distance, and he didn't have the slightest idea of competing.
Only a fool would do it if he took the cavalry to hit the chariot, even the heavy cavalry in full armor could not hit the chariot.
After receiving the order, Zhao Jun naturally divided into two teams and separated in a slight arc towards both sides.
Sima Terrier did not pursue, the impact force of the chariot was far above the cavalry, but the flexibility was far worse, if you turned to chase the cavalry of the Zhao army, not to mention that it might cause a rollover, it was impossible to catch up with the speed alone.
Once the formation is torn apart by the Zhao army, the scattered chariots will no longer form a deterrent, but will only be slaughtered by the Zhao army.
The Qin army had a clear goal and kept rushing forward.
The cavalry ran, there were infantry behind, and crossbowmen behind the infantry.
Cavalry can get around the chariots, but infantry and crossbowmen can't get around!
As long as the Qin army rushed in front of them, it was a one-sided slaughter.
