Looking at Li Mu's generals on behalf of the land, Li Mu's mouth opened, and he stopped talking, but he just looked at the backs of the generals who left on behalf of the land, and sighed heavily.

He knew that he couldn't let these generals go, but he didn't know how to persuade them to stay.

The contradictions that the Zhao Dynasty had not resolved for hundreds of years, how could Li Mu easily resolve them?

And Li Mu had already completely understood Qin Jun's plan at this moment.

The three counties of Daijun, Yunzhong County and Yanmen County of Daidi did not have much value to the Qin State, and even Zhang Ji's 100,000 Qin troops might fall into the quagmire of the Daidi and not be able to get out, but the loss of the three counties of Daidi was great for the Zhao State.

Zhao not only lost the supply of war horses, but also lost the hearts of the border troops on behalf of the land.

Among the 400,000 troops that Zhao Jun barely scraped together, only 200,000 were elite veterans with war experience, and 150,000 of them were border troops he brought from Daidi, and the other 50,000 were heavy armored corps under Zhao Cong.

The other 200,000 are simply young and strong, and not many have experience in war, and in the face of the Qin army like a tiger and wolf, how much combat effectiveness can be imagined.

And there are still 30,000 border troops left behind in Daidi, which is equivalent to the Qin army at the cost of 100,000 people, directly replacing the 180,000 border troops in Daidi, leaving only a group of young people with weak combat strength to Zhao State.

Therefore, the Qin State did not care about the value of the three counties of Daidi to the Qin State from the beginning, but cared about the risk of using 100,000 people and taking over the three counties of Daidi in exchange for the heavy damage suffered by the Zhao State.

Without the Daidi Frontier Army in hand, Li Mu no longer had the confidence to say that he had any confidence in repelling the Qin army.

It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice.

When Li Mu was elected as a general by the generations, he had to spend nearly two years training the Daidi border army that had fought against the grassland Zhuhu all the year round, and finally trained the Daidi border army that exterminated the ragged, broke the Donghu, and descended the forest Hu.

"Guo Kai, I hope you can succeed."

Li Mu smiled bitterly, Guo Kai, who he hated the most in the past, has now become the only trace of vitality in Zhao State.

Negotiate peace and form an alliance, as long as the former is reached, Zhao can also transfer the 80,000 Zhao troops stranded on the Yanzhao battlefield back to the Qin-Zhao front.

And if an alliance can be formed, it will be able to further relieve the pressure on Zhao in terms of troops.

Still, it's time for him to do something.

Politics is not what he is good at, but the military side is ......

Luyang City, the camp of the Qin army

Looking at the information that had just been handed over to him by a spy in the net, Wang Qian's face was a little strange.

The task of his western army was to conquer the fortress and then enter the hinterland of Zhao, and then turn him upside down, directly cutting off the connection between the Zhao capital and Zhongshan.

At that time, whether it is to go north to take Zhongshan, gradually encroach on Zhao State, or directly go south to raid the Zhao capital Danhan, it is up to him to have the final say.

The difference between the former and the latter is only that the time it takes to destroy Zhao is different.

It's just that Zhao Jiang Yan Ju did have two moves, and built the fortress like an iron wall relying on the mountains and rivers, and the other party even erected a lot of giant crossbows to guard against the public losers in the sky.

In contrast, the defenders of Luyang City next door were far from each other, and they did not withstand the three-day offensive of the Qin army at all, and surrendered to Qin.

And with Luyang City as the foundation, the 100,000 army under Wang Jian simply slowly accompanied the city and consumed it.

He knew the true purpose of Zhang Ji's 100,000-strong army to go north to Daidi, and if Zhao lost the support of the 150,000 Daidi border army, he and Wang Qi's 300,000 Qin army soldiers attacked and only 250,000 were stationed, of which 200,000 were young and strong people who had never been on the battlefield.

It's just that what Wang Jian didn't expect was that he was still talking about Zhang Ji yesterday, and today detailed information came from the net.

In the palace of King Zhao, the generals of Daidi officially broke with Zhao and were ready to lead the army to withdraw to the three counties of Daidi.

Of course, all this was expected.

Pang Xuanhe, who conducted a detailed investigation of Li Mu, Zhang Ji's analysis and positioning of Li Mu is very accurate, which is no less than Wu Anjun's immortal talent, and he is a natural commander, but he does not have much political wisdom, and he is even more sophistication.

The character of valuing love and righteousness made it impossible for Li Mu to agree to any bloody means to suppress the turmoil of the border army on behalf of the region.

It's just that he didn't expect Li Mu to take the initiative to attack in order to deal with the current desperate situation, trying to repel all the way first.

It's just that I didn't expect Li Mu's offensive direction to be ......

"Li Mu actually came at me?"

Wang Jian handed the information in his hand to Wang Ben and the others to circulate, although he was excited to be able to fight with an opponent like Li Mu, but he always had a feeling that he was underestimated.

It seems that he is a soft persimmon picked by Li Mu.

In fact, strictly speaking, although there were only 100,000 Qin troops under Wang Jian's command, the 100,000 Qin troops under his command were concentrated on an extremely narrow front.

On the contrary, although there were 200,000 soldiers and horses on Wang Qi's side, they were scattered on the long southern front, and Wang Qi's side was easier to defeat without considering the premise of leading the troops.

But although Wang Jian has already entered middle age and is one of the three generals of the Qin State, he is not famous.

The battle of Yucheng was regarded as a fluke by many people.

After all, if there was no timely rescue from Meng Qian, Wang Jian would not have been able to hold the city at all, but it is already a kind of political correctness for the world to belittle the Qin State, and directly ignore the composition of the army under Wang Qian, and the coalition army at that time was not only numerically superior, but also the elite of Chu and Zhao.

And since then, Wang Qian's record has been nothing more than a small fight.

In contrast, Wang Qi is the general of the Qin State, who followed Bai Qi to fight in the south and the north all the year round, and became famous on the battlefield of Qin and Zhao.

Moreover, even if Yecheng and Zhongmu on the southern line are all lost, there are three fortified cities of Pingyang, Wucheng and Yi'an, and there is also a Zhaonan Great Wall and Fanwu Fortress in the rear, so as not to put Danhan in danger immediately.

It seems that Li Mu's selection of Wang Jian is indeed an excellent choice, but the leader of the Qin army on the Western Road will be Wang Qian.

The three-way Qin army, Zhang Ji is good at change, and his ability is the most comprehensive; Wang Qi is good at attacking and attacking quickly, and the biggest feature of Wang Jian is that he leads the troops with the word "stability".

Whether it is offensive or defensive, Wang Jian is characterized by stability.

Even when Wang Jian attacked, he would give the enemy a feeling that there was absolutely no opportunity to take advantage of, that is, a sense of oppression that took advantage of the general situation of Huanghuang to overwhelm people, making people feel as if they were on a chopping block.

As for defensive ability...... King Xiang of Qin Zhuang appointed him as a lieutenant to guard Xianyang, and after the funeral of King Xiang of Qin Zhuang, whether it was the Empress Dowager Huayang, Zhao Ji, Lü Buwei or Yingzheng of the Chu family, no matter who was in charge, he never expressed any objection to him coming to guard Xianyang, and still entrusted Wang Jian with important tasks, which can be seen from this.
