Chapter 469 Some people need to live, and some people need to die
Yang Ming is very good at convincing people with reason, whether it is the reason of reason, or other reason, so in the end, Li Mu still surrendered, and there was still a Zhao army with eighty or ninety thousand capable soldiers, as well as more than 20,000 wounded.
After accepting Li Mu's surrender, Yang Ming did not stay in Donghuan for too long to control the surrender of Zhao, but directly let him stay where he was, and he led tens of thousands of elite horsemen to rush to the direction where Zhao Du was located, and the foot soldiers followed in the rear.
What Yang Ming wants to do is to go straight to the Zhao capital and completely erase the country of Zhao from the map.
Along the way, the tens of thousands of elite cavalry under Yang Ming's command almost never encountered any resistance, and they went straight into the territory of Zhao Capital as if they had entered a no-man's land, and the forward troops could even see the tall city tower of Zhao Capital.
At this time, after the defeat of the Donghuan army at the hands of the Qin army, the news that all the surrenders had appeared in the palace of King Zhao in the capital of Zhao.
Even if Yang Ming had already destroyed the post station system between Donghuan and Zhao in Zhao with the fastest speed, there were still other post stations that could send back the news after all, but they had just made a longer detour.
Looking at the military newspaper on the bookcase, Empress Dowager Zhao's still delicate face has lost its former demeanor, even if it is covered by thick fat powder, it is still difficult to hide her pale face and panicked eyes.
Li Mu's most warlike Zhao border cavalry has been defeated, and soon there will be more than 100,000 Qin troops marching south, and the troops will be under the Zhao capital, and at this time, inside the Zhao capital, even if you count the guards of the palace, the soldiers of each family are only 20,000 or 30,000 people, can 20,000 or 30,000 people hold the Zhao capital?
Especially when the Qin army is approaching the city, there are a few people who still have the heart to defend the city, and they can not open the city gate, even if the Zhao State is loyal and martyred, but is that possible?
"Queen Mother." Looking at the pale Empress Dowager Zhao, Guo Kai couldn't hide the suddenness in his heart, at this time his fear was deeper than that of Empress Dowager Zhao.
If Empress Dowager Zhao may be able to escape death because of her identity, then he Guo Kai, no matter how you look at it, it seems that there is no possibility of survival, because the general of the Qin army who is about to attack the capital of Zhao is Yang Ming, who is his enemy.
Once Yang Ming led the army to break through the Zhao capital, Guo Kai really couldn't think of a reason for him to live.
Who would have thought that it was just an ordinary thing to destroy the door back then, and in the end, it would develop to the point where it would develop to the point where there would be a terrifying existence that was about to destroy the Zhao State.
"Can we stop it?" Empress Dowager Zhao asked.
"Queen Mother, even Li Mu has been defeated, we people ......" Guo Kai was also speechless for a while, he wanted to repel the Qin army more than anyone else, but was that possible? It is said that the vanguard of the Qin army has entered the territory of the Zhao capital, and the invincible Qin army is about to wreak havoc like a raging wind, destroying all obstacles in their way.
"Defeated, how can Li Mu be defeated, and the defeat is still so fast, isn't he the god of the military array?" Empress Dowager Zhao could no longer suppress the fear in her heart, and the fear erupted in her own hysteria.
"Yes, why is it so fast, an army of hundreds of thousands, and it was crushed in less than a day." Women can be hysterical, but men, even if Guo Kai has deeper fear in his heart, he has to maintain his demeanor on the surface, he is a villain, but he is also a successful villain, and only under the sanctimony can he give birth to more and dirtier dirty thoughts.
"Queen Mother, now is not the time to talk about this, you have to actively prepare for war." In the fear of Empress Dowager Zhao and Guo Kai, Chun Pingjun emphasized on the side.
"Prepare for war, prepare for war? How to prepare? Empress Dowager Zhao asked subconsciously.
"Queen Mother, after the defeat of Changping that year, the situation in Zhao Capital was also in crisis, but in the end, didn't we repel the Qin army? Now as long as we mobilize the people as we did back then, relying on the walls of Zhaodu, it is not a problem to hold on for a few months, as long as we can hold on, there will definitely be hope. Chunping Jun said.
How can things be so simple, after the defeat of Changping that year, Qin State because of the discord between the generals and the suspicion of the monarchs and ministers, so that the Qin army did not attack the Zhao capital at the first time after the big victory, which gave Zhao Guo sufficient preparation time to integrate the remaining forces and attract foreign aid, which finally won the victory in the defense of Zhao Capital, and by the way, he could beat Yan State.
But the situation in front of Zhao Du at this time was completely different, after the Qin army won the victory in Donghuan, they rushed straight to Zhao Du non-stop, and Zhao Du had no time to prepare for war at all.
As for reproducing the miracle of the defense of Zhao Capital back then, unless Qin Wangzheng suddenly recalls Yang Ming now, unless it is ......, but those things cannot happen at all.
And the current countries are no longer the countries of the past, who would dare to offend the Qin State for the sake of the Zhao State, compared to the fighting spirit of Chunping Jun, Guo Kai only has despair.
Zhao Guo is no longer saved. This is Guo Kai's clear cognition.
"This matter will be left to Chunpingjun, Chunpingjun, the safety of Zhao Du, and the life and death of Zhao State will be handed over to you." Empress Dowager Zhao seemed to grasp the last straw.
"Yes." Chunpingjun responded.
Chunpingjun, who was authorized, didn't dare to delay for a moment, but after returning to the mansion, when Chunpingjun summoned several generals and patriarchs of the Zhao army in the capital, the first one to find was the eldest son of King Zhao, the former prince of Zhao, and now the son Zhao Jia.
For Zhao Jia, Chun Pingjun's feelings are complicated, Zhao Jia, is the son of Zhao Wangyan, who used intrigues and tricks to seize the throne that belonged to him, he has every reason to hate Zhao Jia, but when Zhao Jia was also seized by his brother Zhao Qian The crown prince and the current throne, Chun Pingjun inevitably had a feeling of sympathy for Zhao Jia, but now these are not important, because Zhao Guo is facing a threat of life and death.
If Zhao Guo is gone, then there is any need for the former grievances.
"The general was defeated, and he was defeated so quickly?" Zhao Jia, who was squeezed out of the core of Zhao State's power, couldn't help but fall into shock when he heard Chun Pingjun's story.
"Yes, defeated, it took less than a day for the Qin army to defeat the general, and that is the invincible Wu Anjun." Chunpingjun sighed and said, even Li Mu was defeated, and there was no hope for Zhao State, but anyone in Zhao State could retreat and surrender, but he couldn't, because he was the face of Zhao and the face of Zhao State.
If the death of Zhao is inevitable, then someone should also use their own blood to let the world remember the existence of Zhao, only in this way, Zhao will not be completely conquered, only Zhao people still remember that they are Zhao people, then Zhao is not a real dead country, in the future, there may be hope.
And Chun Pingjun wants to use his own blood to make the Zhao people different from the people of the previous Zhao State, and the Zhao State also needs such a person, but this person cannot be the son Zhao Jia.
"Zhao Jia, while the Qin army has not yet besieged the city, you can leave first." Chunping Jun said.
"Uncle is here, how can I leave when the life and death of Zhao Guo is at stake?" Zhao Jia said incredulously, is this what Chun Pingjun should say now?
"Zhao Guo should have no good luck this time, those who dare to resist can't all die under the Qin army's soldiers, someone must live, only alive can there be hope." Chunping Jun said.
"What about Uncle?" Zhao Jia asked.
"Zhao Guo also needs someone to die, only in this way will Zhao Guo not be forgotten." Chunping Jun said.
"Uncle, so can I." Zhao Jia said firmly.
"You can do it, I know, but it's more important to us to be alive for you." Chunping Jun said.
"While the Qin army has not completely surrounded the Zhao capital, you leave quickly, I will declare to the outside world that you will go to Wei and Chu for help, you are the hope of our Zhao State in the future." Chunping Jun said.
"Uncle, has the situation really collapsed to such an extent?" Zhao Jia asked with the last trace of luck.
"It's only worse, a person like Wu Anjun, I never thought that he would be defeated by a person on the battlefield, and he was defeated in that way, in my cognition, on the battlefield, Wu Anjun is invincible, there is someone who can defeat him on the battlefield, in front of such a person, there is nothing to be lucky." Chunping Jun said.
Li Mu is not only Wu Anjun of Zhao State, but also Zhao Guo's courage, but now, Zhao Guo's courage is gone.
Because of the gap in information transmission, when the Qin army was about to defend the Zhao capital, the military report that the Qin army on the North Road would fight a decisive battle with the Zhao army in Donghuan was transmitted back to Xianyang.
"A decisive battle?" Qin Wangzheng looked at the military newspaper written by Yang Ming himself in his hand, his eyes were slightly sunken, which was a little different from what he imagined.
Li Mu, even Qin Wangzheng had to face it squarely, after all, the Qin army had been defeated in his hands several times, including the generals Huan Qi and Li Xin, who he had once been most optimistic about, even if this time it was Yang Ming who led the North Route Army, and he also had an advantage in troops.
In the military report sent back before, Qin Wangzheng thought that Yang Ming had chosen the most prudent strategy 'consumption', and this strategy also coincided with Qin Wangzheng's idea, Qin's national strength far exceeded that of Zhao, and if it continued, only Zhao would be defeated in the end, which was the experience accumulated from several failures.
But if it is a decisive battle, it will have to take a certain risk, and with the strength of the Qin State, there is no need to bear this wind direction.
But in the military report sent now, Yang Ming chose to launch a decisive battle against the Zhao army in the most simple and rude way, there was no more strategy, only a strong attack.
"It seems that the widow's protector captain is still the protector captain, this is the real him, the widow thought it was ...... before" Qin Wangzheng sighed, the war has begun, and there is no need to think about anything else.
In Qin Wangzheng's sigh, he saw Zhao holding a scroll in his hand, but his gloomy personality could not hide his excitement, which made Qin Wangzheng couldn't help but be surprised, and then thought of a possibility.
