Chapter 71: Cutting the Righteous Canal
"Even if you do this, it's still a bit difficult to conquer the Yiqu Kingdom in one go!" Zhang Beichen had to consider the offensive issues of Wei, Korea, Zhao and other countries.
If they attack the Yiqu State, the time will be too long, and these countries will definitely take advantage of the weakness and occupy the Qin State in one fell swoop.
At that time, he was really caught between the front and back, and there was no place to die!
Zhang Beichen opened the intelligence system of the simulator and checked the intelligence of Yiqu Kingdom.
Because the Yiqu country is a country composed of the Rongdi tribe, all of them are brave and good at fighting, especially the cavalry, and the combat effectiveness is very fierce.
In the simulation in which Zhang Beichen assisted Wei Yao, Zhang Beichen brought the cavalry of Yiqu State back to Wei State to support.
In that game, he was able to defeat the Yiqu State because the Qin State was also fighting the Yiqu State at that time, and he had 100,000 elite soldiers of the Wei State in his hands, so he succeeded.
Now the situation is completely different, the Qin army in this period has low combat effectiveness, and most of the soldiers are old, weak, sick and disabled.
If you want to confront the fierce cavalry of the Yiqu Kingdom, I am afraid that you will die in vain!
"Since that's the case, then we can only find a way to upgrade technology!" Zhang Beichen pondered, now that the Qin State has begun to build iron tools, it has begun to lead the countries in terms of personal equipment.
On this equipment, there are still articles that can be done.
[You have carefully improved the cavalry equipment, invented the stirrup, Takahashi saddle and horseshoe, and greatly increased the combat effectiveness of the cavalry! 】
These three cavalry artifacts are all products that have not yet appeared in this era. At this time there were reins, there were cushions, but there were no Takahashi saddles, and there were no stirrups.
Horseshoes, which can protect the horse's shoes and improve the horse's ability to fight continuously. And the stirrups and Takahashi saddles can greatly reduce the technical requirements of the cavalry!
Without years of training, it is difficult to appear an elite cavalryman. The reason why the cavalry of the Rongdi tribe and the Xiongnu are powerful is because they have lived on horseback since they were children and have excellent riding skills!
And with stirrups and Takahashi saddles, ordinary soldiers can quickly master horsemanship!
On top of that, with stirrups, cavalry can stand in a run, which frees the upper body to fight without fear of falling!
Don't underestimate this, it's a qualitative improvement for cavalry! The Great Han Iron Cavalry in another time and space used this equipment to defeat the Huns.
……
[The following spring, the snow melts. You contact the Wu Kingdom and the Quyan Kingdom and send troops to attack the Yiqu Kingdom together. The Qin State sent 80,000 troops, the Wu State sent 30,000 troops, and the Quyan State sent 20,000 troops. 】
The Yingyi people are a little nervous, the Qin State does not have many troops now, and it has to leave some to defend Wei and other countries.
In this battle, she must directly penetrate the Yiqu Kingdom before the end of the summer. At this time, Wei and other countries were still busy planting in spring, otherwise when they harvested wheat in the summer and conscripted troops, it would be the death of Qin!
……
[The three kingdoms of Qinguo, Wushiguo, and Shuyan Kingdom marched in three ways, and the king of Yiqu learned about it and sent troops to meet the enemy. The armies of the Wu Kingdom and the Quyan Kingdom were resisted, and the King of Yiqu focused on attacking the Qin army. He recruited an army of 200,000 and released his words, not only to defeat the Qin army, but also to annihilate the Qin state in one fell swoop and capture the king of Qin! 】
"Damn, this King of the Wu Clan and King Quyan are obviously deliberately delaying, observing the situation, and wanting to reap the benefits of the fisherman!" The Yingyi people knew that these two people did not give their best at all. Their armies are all harassing on the border, and they are looking to see if the Qin State is capable of fighting against the army of the Yiqu State!
"If you are widowed, you don't believe that you can't beat it!" The Yingyi people personally put on armor and led their soldiers into battle.
[The King of Qin personally enlisted, and the morale of the soldiers soared. You took the lead, killed countless enemies, and dampened the spirit of the righteous soldiers. However, the overall strength of the Qin army was still weaker than that of the Yiqu army. 】
……
Zhang Beichen did not go out with the army this time, but changed into the skin of his [Qin State Secret Envoy], used his camouflage skills, and entered the country of Yiqu.
Yiqu country, the capital of the country.
Zhang Beichen secretly met with King Yiqu's younger brother, Yiquming.
"Mingjun, the army of Qin has arrived, you can start to do it!" Zhang Beichen urged Yiquming to stage a coup d'état.
However, Yiquming hesitated, and the Qin army fought against the Yiqu army and did not achieve a clear advantage. If Wei and other countries start to attack, I am afraid that it will be the Qin army that will be destroyed.
"Qin Envoy, I have already started preparations, and I will do it soon." Yi Quming is obviously shirking.
Zhang Beichen said coldly: "Mingjun, I know you are worried that if you fail to seize power, you will suffer from it. But have you ever thought that even if you don't seize power, Yiqu Chan won't be able to tolerate you! He has been promoting the culture of the Central Plains, and those tribal leaders of the Yiqu Kingdom are all dissatisfied, and they all respect you. ”
"If Yiquzan wants to fully implement his national policy, he will inevitably suppress this faction, and you are his target to make an example of chickens and monkeys!"
"The words of the gentleman are like an initiation!" Yi Quming thought about it for a while, and found that this was really the case, he broke out in a cold sweat and said, "I'll gather my troops and start in a few days!" ”
[Yi Quming is vacillating, and you want to promote Yi Quming to launch a coup d'état. deliberately revealed his identity to let the king of Yiqu know that the envoy of the Qin State was secretly in contact with Yiquming. 】
[King Yiqu was furious, suspicious in his heart, and prepared to attack Yiquming. Yiquming was forced to launch a coup d'état in advance, and Yiqu was suddenly in chaos! 】
[In order to suppress the rebellion, King Yiqu had to withdraw 80,000 troops from the front line and return to China to quell the rebellion, and the pressure on the Qin army was greatly reduced. 】
……
The Yingyi people also saw the news of the Yiquming rebellion and were overjoyed. Now King Yiqu has to face both the invasion of foreign enemies and the internal coup d'état, no matter how great his ability is, he can't deal with it in a short time.
[You sent a letter to King Wu and King Quyan urging them to march, King Wu and King Quyan saw that the country of Yiqu was in turmoil, and understood that this was a good opportunity to attack Yiqu, so they no longer hesitated to launch a large army to attack, and the Yiqu army was difficult to resist, so they had to divide their troops to support again. 】
"It's time for the widow to play!" The Yingyi people saw that there were only 100,000 people left in the Yiqu army that was now confronting the Qin army, which was only 20,000 more than the Qin army.
[You led the soldiers to attack, and the Yiqu army desperately resisted. Relying on the advantages of iron equipment, as well as new equipment such as stirrups and saddles, you led your army to defeat Yiqu's elite cavalry head-on and won a great victory! 】
[You are in one go, leading the soldiers to fight all the way to the capital of Yiqu country. King Yiqu had already suppressed the rebellion at this time and put Yiquming to death. He gathered 100,000 remnants of his army and defended the capital. 】
……
On the city wall, Yiqu Chan looked down at the city, where Yingyi was wearing a battle robe and riding a white horse, with hundreds of thousands of troops behind him.
The armies of the Wushi and the Quyan have also arrived, and are currently under the command of the Yingyi people.
Yiqu Zhan looked at the Yingyi people stupidly, he remembered the scene when he was a proton in the Qin State, and he saw the Yingyi people for the first time. At that time, Yingyi competed with others on the school field, and she was heroic and sassy, winning several men in a row.
Yiqu Chan had never seen such a heroic and beautiful woman, so he was fascinated at first sight. It's a pity that he was humble at the time and couldn't get close to the Yingyi people.
Finally, he persuaded the king of Qin to help him ascend the throne and become the king of Yiqu. He began to make great efforts, abandon the backward customs of the Rongdi tribe, promote the culture of the Central Plains, and the Yiqu Kingdom gradually became stronger.
Just as the Qin State was in decline, Yiquzan finally had a chance to realize his ambitions. Annexation of the Qin State and capture the Yingyi people!
thought that he was finally going to get what he wanted, but who knew that not long after his plan was implemented, the situation came to a shocking reversal, and now he has become a trapped beast, and it is the woman he admires who leads the troops to attack him.
"Yiqu Zhan, you ungrateful! When the monarch helped you ascend the throne, you swore allegiance to the Qin State. As a result, he turned around and declared himself a vassal to the Wei State, and also attacked the Qin State. Today, the widow will kill you and pay tribute to my fallen Qin soldiers! "The Yingyi people's sword is pointed at Yiqu Zhan.
Yiqu Chan was not afraid, but smiled heartily: "King Qin, you are more beautiful than before, and you are more fierce than before!" You will take the city, and the king will wait here. This king has already asked for help from the king of Wei, the king of Han, and the king of Zhao, and their reinforcements will arrive soon, and at that time, you will be the one who will be besieged! ”
