Yes, Xinlingjun did not betray the alliance with the Qin state.

To be precise, under the current circumstances, Shinlingjun is not allowed to betray the covenant.

It is not only because of the 50,000 troops of the Qin army, but more importantly, it is impossible for the battle of Qin and Zhao at this time to repeat the situation of the Battle of Changping.

Quite simply, once there is a possibility of a prolonged confrontation between the two armies, especially if the Wei army does not appear in the designated position according to the established plan, the Qin army will inevitably retreat immediately.

As long as he retreats to Chen Du, Zhao Jun may not dare to pursue.

And once the Qin army withdraws, the Zhao State, which has concentrated hundreds of thousands of troops, guess where their butcher's knives will cut.

It can be said that at this time, the Wei army had been tied to the thief ship of the Qin State.

Of course, if you can win the Zhao State, it will also be earned for the Wei State, according to the agreement with the Qin State, after the dismemberment of the Zhao State, the Wei State will gain the original Dongjun and Huaisi County, as well as a large territory in the north of the Yan State, and the Qin State will divide Yingchuan County and Shangdang County.

In this way, although the strength of the Qin State has greatly increased, the Wei State and the national strength of the Zhao State can still compete with the Qin State.

A new triangular wrestling pattern will be re-formed, and even if Qi and Chu can support Wei, Wei may not have the possibility of surpassing Qin.

On the other hand, attacking Dongjun, in the face of Tiandan's defense, even if Dongjun is captured, I am afraid that the losses will be heavy, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Therefore, the best choice in front of Xinling Jun is still to fulfill the alliance with the Qin army, so as to gain more territory from the complete defeat of the Zhao army.

And the reason why more than 30,000 Wei troops appeared on the border line of Dongjun was for only one purpose - to attack the east and west: to tell the Zhao army that I would attack Dongjun, so as to cover the true intention of the coalition army.

Because the total number of troops in Tian Dan's hands was only 50,000 horses, and the scope of his defense was the two counties of Dongjun and Huaisi, in the face of the attack of more than 30,000 Wei troops, Tian Dan also had to take it seriously.

Shrinking the strength of troops is naturally also the proper meaning.

At the same time, just in case, Tian Dan also passed the news of the Wei army's eastward assembly to Handan.

It can't be said that Tian Dan has made any mistakes, but Xinlingjun has already felt the pulse of Zhao Jun. Or rather, this is the inevitable situation of the insufficient strength of the Zhao army.

Fortunately, Qi obviously has no interest in this war in the Central Plains, and is still "busy" on its own.

And this also gave Zhao Kuo enough confidence.

Although he had received the warning from Tian Dan, he did not change his strategy and did not send a single soldier to Tian Dan's direction.

In this way, Xinlingjun's voice seemed to have succeeded in making Tian Dan shrink his forces and warn Handan, but in fact it had no impact on the battlefield situation.

Of course, after successfully forcing back the Tiandan Division, the 30,000 Wei army also left only more than 3,000 people to continue to attack the Zhao realm, maintaining the illusion that the army was still online, but the rest of the army turned around and pursued the main force of the coalition day and night.

At the same time, on the Zhao side, Lü Buwei finally lived up to expectations, and successfully recruited more than 60,000 Hu people from Jiuyuan County and Daibei County, plus more than 10,000 recruits, plus more than 10,000 people recruited from Handan County, Zhongshan, Shangdang and other counties, and now the number of recruits gathered in Handan has reached as many as 90,000.

….

It is more than 10,000 more than the 80,000 people Zhao Kuo requested, which really makes Zhao Kuo excited.

Immediately, after a simple mix of the 30,000 elites left in Handan and the 90,000 army, Zhao Kuo was also about to take the 120,000 army and embark on the journey south.

It's a pity that the reorganization is more time-consuming than Zhao Kuo imagined, especially when the main members of it are still Hu people, and it is really difficult for the generals to separate them.

There is no way, in order to maintain the combat strength of the Hu people as much as possible, Ma Jian can only adopt the method of maintaining a thousand people to reorganize the Hu people.

And this reorganization is a matter of days. It was the delay of these few days, not only did the second phase of the war end, but Zhao Kuo's actions were far behind the Wei-Qin coalition army

。

Just as Zhao Kuo and his army had just left Handan and marched to Anyang, about to enter the former Hanoi County, they suddenly came with bad news from the front line: the Wei army raided and drew water, occupied the main road to Zhoudi, Yicheng, and threatened Yewang.

This is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Zhao Kuo!

The loss of Yicheng directly cut off Yingchuan County from Shangdang County and most of Zhao State.

In other words, now nearly 300,000 troops under Li Mu (including Zhou Qi and Zhao Wei) have lost contact with Zhao proper.

This is almost the Changping battlefield in history, the reproduction of the Hyun clan and the Great Grain Mountain - almost all the elite troops of the Zhao State were concentrated in the Hyun clan but the grain was insufficient, and the large grain and grass of the Zhao army were concentrated in the Great Grain Mountain, but there were not enough troops.

Even as the situation continues to develop, the current situation is even worse.

The Wei army in Yicheng, judging from the intelligence, was the combined army of Wei and Qin, with a total of 150,000 troops, and such a force had the absolute strength to continue to advance towards the empty Shangdang County (formerly Hanoi County).

As long as it occupies Yewang City, then it can threaten the Zhao army in the front line of the empty warehouse in the northwest direction, and even Handan in the northeast direction.

The reason why the Battle of Changping was forced to retreat to both sides of the river was because of the loss of Yewang City, so that the Qin army could reach the heart of Shangdang through Yewang City at any time.

And once Yewang City is lost, Zhao Guo will not face the problem of how to rescue the hundreds of thousands of troops trapped in Yingchuan County, but how to avoid recreating the dilemma of the Battle of Changping that year.

I have to say that the sword of the Wei army commanded by Xin Lingjun really slashed at the vital point of the Zhao army.

Of course, this is not unrelated to the loopholes in Zhao Jun's arrangement.

It's just that in the face of the Qin army's attack on the country, as a defensive side, and in the case of insufficient troops, the battle line stretched under several counties, negligence and loopholes were almost inevitable.

Even, it's not a loophole.

The reason is simple, just a few days ago, there were more than 5,000 people stationed in the city.

It was only because of the end of the second phase of the battle that Zhou Qi led the army to Los Angeles, the army was exhausted, and the surrounding Qin army also died down, so Zhou Qi ordered three thousand soldiers and horses to escort the remaining grain and grass to Los Angeles.

….

In a few days, the more than 3,000 people who had been carrying grain and grass will return.

It's a pity that the grain and grass have just been escorted away here, and the Wei army over there has already entered. This small loophole was keenly captured by Xin Lingjun after all.

Of course, having said that, even if there were 5,000 people stationed in it, in the face of the attack of Xinlingjun's 150,000 army, I am afraid it would not last long at all.

These 3,000 troops transported all the grain and grass in the city, but they also saved a lot of losses.

More importantly, with such a large amount of grain and grass entering the city, there is no need to worry about the shortage of food on the front line for a while.

But obviously, even if a large amount of grain and grass is sent into Los Angeles, and a large amount of grain and grass is hoarded in Xinzheng City, but under the empty mountain, the grain and grass will still be eaten after all.

Once the grain and grass are exhausted, the fate of this more than 300,000 troops can be imagined.

What, let Li Mu lead his troops back to attack Yicheng?

Are you a vegetarian when the Qin army on the frontal battlefield is? How could Li Mu be easily taken off?

Since ancient Huashan, Zhao Kuo understands: Only by opening up the grain road as soon as possible can the entire battlefield be revitalized.

But the problem is that Zhao Kuo himself only has a mere 120,000 troops in his hands, of which more than 90,000 are newly recruited recruits, and in the military situation, the Wei and Qin coalition forces that occupy Yicheng are as many as 150,000.

Although the combat power of the Wei army is not high, it will not lose to its recruits after all.

120,000 against 150,000, or siege, Zhao Kuo didn't think he could have any chance of winning.

Moreover, if the Wei army slightly divided tens of thousands of troops to attack and occupy Yewang City, its 120,000 army would instantly fall into the dilemma of being attacked by the north and south, and the entire battlefield would inevitably fall into an irreparable defeat.

Although his heart was already anxious, Zhao

He knows that he can't be in a hurry, let alone panic.

Spreading out the map, Zhao Kuo began to analyze it carefully.

With the addition of the Wei army, the current situation on both sides has been completely clear:

Judging from the existing situation, the Qin army concentrated 250,000 troops in the front, about 100,000 troops near Zhou Wangji, and the last Wei-Qin coalition army was also around 150,000 troops. The total number of troops invested should be around 500,000, which should already be the entire Qin State.

On his side, he has 180,000 horses in Xinzheng, 140,000 troops in Los Angeles, and 120,000 troops in his own hands, totaling only 440,000 troops.

In the total number of troops, there was a reduction of 60,000 troops.

Although war is not a simple accumulation of numbers, the best way to increase one's chips (troops) when you are in a weak position is still to increase your own chips.

Zhao Kuo carefully counted the chips (troops) he still had in his hand: there were still 40,000 troops on the empty warehouse territory, and there were still 50,000 troops in Dongjun and Huaisi.

If you can quickly assemble these two troops, then you will have 210,000 troops at your disposal.

In this way, with an army of 210,000 against 150,000, it is not impossible to attack Yicheng.

But the problem is that Dongjun and Huaisi County are still far away, and when General Tiandan arrives with his troops, most of the grain and grass of the army in Yingchuan County will be basically consumed.

As long as Yicheng drags on for even half a month, Li Mu's side will run out of food.

In terms of time, it is obviously too late.

What's more, if all the troops of the empty warehouse are withdrawn, in case the Qin army divides one or two thousand troops to attack the empty warehouse territory, then the entire Shangdang will fall, and this battle will also be lost.

Sometimes, it is not necessarily a good thing to have a large territory, especially before your own strength has reached that point.

Obviously, this is the case with today's Zhao State.

The blame can only be blamed for the rapid expansion of Zhao in recent years, and Zhao Kuo is obsessed with the growth of national strength, but ignores the importance of conscription, which is why he is in a tight situation today.

Of course, it is useless to think about this, what is important is how to solve the current situation......
