Zhao Jun has a belief that he looks down on the world, and in his heart he feels that all the cavalry in the world is not their opponent, and in fact it is.

This led to the fact that when the cavalry of Zhao State faced the cavalry of other countries, they did not think that they would lose from the bottom of their hearts, and they congenitally pressed the opponent.

Qin Jun once also had a belief in looking down on the world, but this belief was interrupted by Zhao Jun at its peak.

Faith is a wonderful thing, it can make people have an inexplicable power, so that one is many.

Just like when the countries of the Central Plains faced those Hu people Rongdi, even if the opponent's strength was several times that of their own, they would not have the slightest fear, not only would they not retreat, but they could even fight back.

Now the belief in the invincibility of the Qin army is gone, and it has even suffered a certain amount of suppression.

When they encounter Zhao Jun, they will think that they can't beat it deep down, and this mentality is especially obvious among cavalry.

Don't say that there is a certain gap between the cavalry of the Qin State and the cavalry of the Zhao State, even if the cavalry of the Qin State is stronger than the cavalry of the Zhao State, it is impossible to win against the other party under the influence of this mentality.

"You're doing a good job." Bai Qi looked at the Longxi cavalry behind Wang Qian, these cavalry had lost nearly a third of them after the first battle, but there was no fatigue and fear on everyone's faces, but they were refreshed.

Their strength has not increased, but their spirit has undergone earth-shaking changes, giving people a feeling of being reborn.

Bai Qi can't say why this change in state, maybe it was infected by Wang Qian, which was a good thing for Qin Jun after all.

The loss of nearly two thousand soldiers is nothing in comparison.

At least after this time, it is impossible for Zhao Jun to block the door of the Qin army to cook meat and disgust the Qin army.

"General, can these soldiers be handed over to the last future for training in the future?" Wang Jian clenched his fists and said very seriously.

He made up his mind that he must train a cavalry that could compete with the Zhao army.

The Qin people are no worse than the Zhao people, and what the Zhao people can do, the Qin people will definitely be able to do.

"I'll tell the king." Bai nodded.

"Then the general will go back first." Wang Jian said.

Bai Qi didn't speak, just looked at Zhao Jun who was slowly retreating, with a faint sadness between his eyebrows.

The New Year has passed, or it won't be long before the weather warms up, and when the time comes, the Zhao army will inevitably start to launch a real attack, and not a small fight like now.

The number of the Qin army is only half of the coalition army, and it is inevitable that it will be a little difficult to defend such a long defensive line, and the Zhao army is already good at attacking, and the river of turbulent water cannot prevent the elusive Zhao Fei cavalry at all.

A breach in any one place has the potential to lead to the collapse of the entire defensive line.

"Go and call Zheng Anping." Bai Qi said to his subordinates.

After a while, Zheng Anping rushed over and said respectfully, "General."

Although Zheng Anping is Fan Ju's person, he is very in awe of Bai Qi from the bottom of his heart.

It should be said that in the entire Qin State, there are not many people who are not in awe of Bai Qi.

"You have led people to set up beacon towers along the entire turbulent waters, north to the Middle East, and south to Dengcheng. The sooner the better." Bai Qi said that in order to deal with the cavalry of the Zhao army, he could only adopt the oldest method, using the beacon tower to transmit information.

No matter where the Zhao army attacked, the soldiers here could tell the main force of the Qin army through the beacon tower, and then the Qin army quickly sent troops to support.

If there is enough time, Bai Qi even wants to build a Great Wall along the turbulent water, and slowly consume it with the Zhao army.

However, the construction of the Great Wall was too labor-intensive and time-consuming, and it was impossible for the Zhao army to watch the Qin army build the Great Wall.

"No." Zheng Anping said, seeing that Bai Qi had no other instructions, he retreated.

"I hope it will take the Zhao army to retreat." Bai Qi thought to himself.

Originally, he didn't have any hope of draining the coalition army, the four kingdoms of Zhao, Wei, Han and Qi were located in the Central Plains, the land was fertile, and the supply of grain and grass was endless, even if the entire Qin State was squeezed dry, it was impossible to consume the four countries.

But now the white is against the consumption of death

Hope was regained by the coalition forces.

The reason is very simple, King Zhao is too extravagant to Zhao Jun, not to mention three meals a day, occasionally there is meat, and there is meat every day for a few days during the Chinese New Year.

Even this luxury is not only for Zhao Jun, but even for Han Wei and Qi.

You must know that the total number of troops of the Four-Nation Alliance is more than 500,000!

What kind of concept is this, every day just by eating, you can eat a hill.

Bai Qi didn't know how rich the Zhao State was, the distance between the Qin State and the Zhao State was too far, and the leopard in the tube could get limited information.

But he knew that no matter how rich the Zhao State was, there was a limit, and it would definitely not last too long to supply so many troops.

……

"King, the Qin army has retreated." Meng Wu turned over and dismounted, clenched his fists and said.

"Bai Qi uses soldiers, be cautious when you should be cautious, take risks when you should take risks, and don't stick to it at all, it's really hard to guess." Zhao Kuo said.

It took so long for the Zhao army to kill less than two thousand Qin troops in the end, attracting nearly a thousand Qin troops to surrender, although it was not a loss, but it did not make anything.

"King, do you still want to boil meat in a pot?" Meng Wu asked.

"No need." Zhao Kuo waved his hand, after this time, the morale of the Qin army had stopped falling, and there was no point in continuing any longer.

However, Zhao Kuo did not stop disgusting Qin Jun, but just disgusted Qin Jun in a different way.

For example, he sent people to the front of the Qin army's camp to scold, and he scolded Qin Wangji, and said that Qin Wangji was dead, and the Qin army was not ready to surrender.

Then Zhao Kuo sent troops to attack the Qin army camp from time to time, which was really irregular.

It's like the rain of arrows that was used to disgust the Qin army before.

Sometimes they attack the Qin army in the morning, sometimes they attack the Qin army at noon, sometimes they attack the Qin army in the evening, and sometimes they attack the Qin army in the middle of the night or even in the early morning.

And it was a random attack on any part of the Qin army's camp.

Sometimes they attacked the city, and sometimes they attacked the camp of the Qin army outside the city.

The Qin army didn't dare to gamble at all, even in the middle of the night, they had to get up to defend the city, but as soon as they got up, the Zhao army immediately called in to collect the troops.

If they don't get up, the Zhao army will continue to attack.

There was a military camp, just because the main general was a step slower to react, and was led by Jin to rush into the army, killing more than 2,000 Qin troops, and even the commander of the army was beheaded.

Bai Qi once personally led the army to ambush, but when he encountered the Zhao army led by Tian Dan, he instantly reached the level of the puppet army soul legion, and forcibly blocked the three times the Qin army, and then Zhao Feiqi quickly rushed to join the battlefield.

Originally, the Qin army had an advantage, and it was even possible to destroy this Zhao army, but after Zhao Feicai arrived, the battle situation was reversed in an instant, and Bai Qi had to lead the Qin army to retreat.

The next day, Bai Qi repeated his old tricks, and once again waited for the Zhao army to attack the Qin army camp to lead the army to support, but was besieged by Le Yi, who was ambushed not far away, and in the end only a few hundred people escaped.

Since then, the Qin army has restarted the turtle shrinkage mode, and no matter how provocative the Zhao army is, the Qin army will not come out.

Bai Qi divided the Qin army into two parts, one defending during the day and one at night, in response to the harassment of the Zhao army.

……

Handan, Lin Xiangru handled government affairs as usual.

Since Zhao Kuo's personal expedition, the entire Zhao country has been busy, and there is no holiday even for the New Year.

Zhao Kuo and Wei Wuji are not there, Lin Xiangru has an overview of all things in the country, his busy feet do not touch the ground every day, and the whole person is a lot haggard, but seeing that Zhao Guo is getting stronger day by day, Lin Xiangru is happy from the bottom of his heart.

"The last batch of cattle and sheep has been loaded in Monan, and there will be no large-scale beef and mutton until autumn." Zhao Bao said.

Spring is the time for cattle and sheep to mate and give birth, and it is impossible for the pasture to kill cattle and sheep at this time.

What's more, Zhao Bao also plans to take advantage of this year to double the expansion of the entire pasture, and it is even more impossible to kill cattle and sheep.

The same is true for other livestock farms, when the meat production will be much less in the spring, and the chickens, ducks and geese will enter the egg laying period, and this time will be down

Eggs are to be used for hatching.

In Zhao's industrial plan, these animal husbandry industries are also to be expanded, and it is expected that the expansion will be about doubled by autumn.

Yandi, which has just been incorporated into the territory, is also planning a little bit of industry.

The front-line battles are belligerents and cannot affect the development of the Zhao State.

"I see." Lin Xiangru pulled out a booklet from the table, which recorded various materials stored by Zhao State, including meat.

Zhao Guo did not have refrigeration technology, but it was cured with a large amount of salt, which could also achieve long-term preservation.

Lin Xiangru opened one of the pages and immediately frowned.

Zhao did store a large amount of meat before, but this large amount was relative to the number of Zhao troops, and if it was used to supply 500,000 coalition troops, it would not last long.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Sheng asked.

"There's not enough meat to store." Lin Xiangru said.

"Send a letter to the king, and replace it with salted fish." Zhao Sheng said.

"Letter from the fishery saying that the production of salted fish is ...... It's not enough." Lin Xiangru said silently, it is true that there are many fish in the sea this year, but it can't support the expansion of Zhao Guo's fleet again and again, and endless fishing.

It also takes time for a small fish to grow into a big fish.

In the past, fishing boats could catch a large number of fish near the coastline, but later they had to sail farther away, and even went to the coastal waters of Yan and Qi to fish.

Now, even if you run farther, there are fewer and fewer fish caught, but Zhao Guo's demand is increasing.

Of course, the main reason is that Zhao Guo's fishing boats can't run far at all.

In the summer, the fish must be brought back on the same day, otherwise they will spoil.

In winter, when the weather is cold, the activity of the fish decreases, and the difficulty of fishing is greatly increased, and even if you can run far, the catch is not as good as in summer.

"Didn't we build two more fishing grounds in Yandi?" Zhao Sheng asked.

"These two fishing grounds are too small now, and they are in the same area as the river port." Lin Xiangru shook his head.

"How about leasing a harbor to Qi State?" Zhao Sheng said.

Qi has a ready-made port, there are ready-made fishing boats, and there are enough fishermen, as long as Zhao Guo spends some money and promises Qi Guo not to station and train the navy here, it is not difficult to lease it.

"Good way." Lin Xiangru's eyes lit up, "But this matter needs someone to send a special envoy to the Qi Kingdom to discuss with the King of Qi."

"I'll go myself." Zhao Sheng said.

"It's okay, if you can, discuss it with Qi Guo and buy a batch of grain and grass, the more the better, money is not a problem." Lin Xiangru said.

"Okay." Zhao Sheng nodded.

"I don't know what's going on on the front." Lin Xiangru said with some worry, although he is a four-nation alliance and his strength is far superior to that of Qin, but after all, Qin is the king of Qin's personal expedition, and there is a famous general like Bai Qi, how can people not be worried.

"Don't worry, the king is a person who knows the soldiers, and it is expected that all the kings will be assisted by famous generals such as Pingjun, and victory is a matter of time." Yu Xin said with a smile, "Let's just take care of the country, and when the king comes back, we will give the king a strong Zhao Kingdom."

……

In February, the grass grows and the warbler flies, and the willows on the shore pull out the tender branches, like a graceful girl swaying in the spring breeze.

The Zhao army's attack also gradually became rapid, Zhao Kuo ordered Zhao Fei to ride, the Praetorian Guard led the cavalry to attack from many places, and let Wei Wuji lead the troops south, attack Dengcheng, and cut off part of the Qin army's grain route.

Dengcheng is located at the confluence of the Han River and the Turbulent Water, and can directly reach Nanjun from the south, and is a transportation artery connecting Hanzhong, Nanjun and Nanyang.

The grain and grass from Nanjun can be transported upstreams along the Han River to Dengcheng.

The grain and grass from Bashu can also be transported north to Hanzhong, and then along the Han River to Dengcheng, and then sent north to Yucheng.

As long as the Zhao army captures Dengcheng, it can cut off the grain route from Nanjun to Yucheng.

The grain route from Bashu to Yucheng will also be affected.

Then, Zhao Kuo ordered Pang Xuanhe again

The kites attack in the middle.

Shang connected the region to Guanzhong and Nanyang Basin, and the Qin and Chu states fought frantically for this area, and there were several major wars, and the king of Chu Huai was deceived by Zhang Yi because of this, and was ridiculed by later generations for more than 2,000 years.

Yu Zhong was located in the easternmost part of the land of Shangyu, and controlling the entrance to the land of Shang was very important for the Qin army.

"Great King, the Qin army has set up a large number of beacons along the turbulent waters, and every time our army appears, the Qin army will immediately light the beacons and retreat back into the camp to not engage our army. When reinforcements appear, we will be flanked on both sides." Yan Juyu reports.

The Qin army can't pinching Zhao Feiqi, Zhao Feiqi accelerates, and the Qin army can only eat ashes in the back, but the Qin army can flank other legions, and Zhao Feiqi can't ignore it.

If Zhao Feiqi acted alone, there was no way to take the Qin army camp.

Although Zhao Feiqi was strong, it was impossible for him to storm the Qin army's camp, and even if he really captured it, he would suffer heavy damage.

Yan Ju was not the first to report this problem, all the legions that attacked in the past few days had reported this problem.

The beacon tower of the Qin army can be said to be specifically aimed at the cavalry of the Zhao army, so that the highly mobile cavalry of the Zhao army has nowhere to hide, as long as it appears on the battlefield, it will immediately appear, and then it will be intercepted by the Qin army.

"Since the Qin army has built beacons everywhere, then we will build them too!" Zhao Kuo waited for a long time, and saw that no one spoke, so he ordered.

"Huh?" Yan Ju was stunned.

The Qin army built the beacon tower to target the Zhao cavalry, and it was useless for the Zhao army to build the beacon tower, the Qin army cavalry was not the opponent of the Zhao army at all, and there was no need to spend manpower and material resources to build the beacon tower against.

The others also looked at Zhao Kuo suspiciously.
