544 The Marquis of Quyang, referred to by Qianfu
That Xiong Wuliang is invincible in the battle, and his reputation shocks the world, how can it be a short-sighted pen?
Taking 10,000 steps back, even if Xiong Wuliang is really a bad pen, Le Yi, Qu Yuan, Zhaohua and others under his command are all outstanding people who have insight into the world, how can they be confused together?
The state of Chu let go of the stormy Qin, Wei and Han did not fight, but went to fight the Yue country...... It seems that Xiong Wuliang is making a stupid move, but in fact, it is not!
Indeed, at this juncture, if the state of Chu raises troops to attack Qin, then it will be extremely difficult for the state of Qin to resist the Chu army and the Zhao army at the same time...... There is an eighty percent chance that it will be destroyed by these two countries together.
The state of Chu killed the state of Qin, of course, it completely washed away the blood feud of 'the king was broken and the first king was killed'.
But then what?
The military strength of the Zhao State was obviously stronger than that of the Chu State, and after destroying the Qin State, the Zhao State could gain significantly more benefits.
When the time comes, Zhao will pour troops to take Wei and Han again...... Between it and the State of Chu, there is a thousand-mile-long border!
The already strong Zhao State absorbed the nutrients of the three kingdoms of Qin, Wei and Han...... Even if the state of Chu can get some benefits from the corpses of the three kingdoms of Qin, Wei and Han, it will not get more benefits than the powerful Zhao state in any case.
At that time, on the thousand-mile-long national border, the cavalry corps of the Zhao army could launch an attack on the Chu State at will.
Can the state of Chu still hold on?
To sum up, Xiong Wuliang did not fight the Qin State and the Yue State, which seemed to be a dizzy decision, but it was actually a far-reaching and correct move.
The current international situation - Zhao is the strongest, and it is full of expansion ambitions.
The three kingdoms of Qin, Wei and Han just helped the state of Chu to block the route of the Zhao people to the south.
Don't look at it, the state of Chu has already pulled the state of Qi and signed an alliance with the state of Zhao...... But judging from the actual situation, the three kingdoms of Qin, Wei and Han are a relationship between the three kingdoms of Chu and Chu State!
On the other hand-
Conquered the country of Yue, on the one hand, it can take revenge and boost the morale of the people; second, it can absorb some nutrients from the Yue State and speed up the recovery of the Chu State; Third, it can continue to keep the three kingdoms of Qin, Wei and Han to curb the expansion of the unprecedentedly powerful Zhao State.
For the state of Chu, there is no harm in all benefits.
"Xiong Wuliang, you are really sinister!" Bai Qi figured out the trick, and his face was much more solemn.
But on his lips, he still spat on Xiong Wuliang's actions: "With so many insidious calculations, you are really not a gentleman!" ”
"Whatever you want...... After all, my Qin State is still free from the difficulty of destroying the country! ”
"Moreover, you have also offended the Zhao Kingdom!"
"Huh...... When my Qin State recovers, I will definitely attack Yingdu again! Bai Qi, like Zhao Yong outside the city, looked south from afar, and couldn't help gritting his teeth: "Ben will have to chop off your dog's head sooner or later!" It is used to pay tribute to the heroic soul of the national captain! ”
……
Xiong Wuliang, who was sitting on the bronze car, sneezed inexplicably.
"Yawn ......" Xiong Wuliang rubbed his nose: "Who is scolding me?" ”
Shaohu, who had been following Xiong Wuliang's side, couldn't help laughing, scratched his black chest hair, and laughed angrily: "The people who scold the lord at this moment can't be counted." ”
"The Yue people in front of you, the deceived Zhao people, the Qin State, the Wei State, and the Korean ...... who were beaten by the monarch" Shaohu snapped his fingers: "What is this called?" ”
The summoner on the side interjected: "...... Thousands of people refer to. ”
Peony Tiger grinned and laughed heartlessly.
Xiong Wuliang glanced at the two living treasures speechlessly: "At the moment of the war, you can still laugh." ”
Shao Hu smiled and said nonchalantly: "The big battle of 300,000 enemy troops, the last general has followed the lord to see - the Yue country in front of him has 20,000 soldiers and horses at best, what is there to fear?" ”
"The lord gives orders, and the last general just obeys the order!"
"As long as there is a prince here, my Dachu will be invincible!"
These words resonated with the surrounding soldiers of the pro-barracks, and they cheered one after another: "The Marquis of Quyang is invincible!" Da Chu is invincible! ”
The sound gradually spread, and although the Quyang New Army and Xiao Cavalry on the periphery didn't know what was happening, listening to such a warm cheer also aroused their enthusiasm for Quyang Hou, so they also shouted: "Wan Sheng!" Wansheng! ”
The cheers swept across the sky like rolling thunder.
Xiong Wuliang stopped talking, rubbed his nose again, and continued to close his eyes to recuperate.
It is undoubtedly a good thing that the soldiers have such a mentality - this shows that after a winter of rest, although the vitality of the Chu State has not recovered, the morale of the people has been reinvigorated.
Last year's battle was so bad...... According to common sense, it is not surprising that the mood of the Chu State has been sluggish and silent for ten or even twenty years.
But!
Xiong Wuliang's incredible victory and the miraculous performance of the Huainan Plain's smooth disaster relief undoubtedly played a great role in boosting the people's morale.
The battle of revenge in front of him is already a battle that the entire Chu State has paid attention to.
If he can win the battle, it will undoubtedly make the mood of Chu State rise further.
But if you defeat ......
Xiong Wuliang shook his head and threw this terrible thought out of his mind.
……
Having said that, Xiong Wuliang is not as blindly optimistic as Shaohu - he has had close contact with Ji Jing and is deeply impressed by the latter's ambition, courage and talent.
This is definitely a fierce rival!
And the 30,000 Vietnamese troops under his command, even if they are not as good as the Quyang New Army and the Xiao Cavalry Army, will not be too bad! Especially in the mountains and dense forests of [Langya], it will definitely exert stronger combat power.
Yue Guo is the defender and naturally has an advantage...... Plus their knowledge of the terrain...... This battle may not be easy to win.
……
301 B.C.E., 7th of May.
Xiong Wuliang, the Marquis of Quyang, Great Chu, took 20,000 troops and arrived at the important gateway level of attacking Yuedi - [Jianyang].
The Chu army had 20,000 troops, and the Yue country had 30,000 troops.
To tell the truth, the number of troops invested by the two armies is not much, and in the world of the Warring States with continuous swords and soldiers, it is at best a 'special military operation' with limited intensity, and it is not a major war worthy of being written about in the history books.
Especially last year, the state of Chu had just fought such a tragic war...... After the glorious battle of 'burning 300,000 allied troops in Yingdu', this 'Battle of Langya', which has a limited total strength, is even more inconspicuous.
However, under all kinds of coincidences, this not a big battle has attracted a lot of attention!
Within the Chu State, thousands of Li people regarded this battle as a crucial battle of revenge that was bound to be won.
The three kingdoms of Zhao, Qin, Wei and Han were also very concerned about this distant battle that indirectly affected the war between them.
Jianyang City.
The red and yellow flags of the Chu army fluttered in the wind at the head of the city.
The Jianyang guard general personally greeted him, and bowed down to Xiong Wuliang's bronze chariot from afar: "Jianyang guard, meet Quyang Hou!" Quyang Hou Wansheng! ”
The Changge in the hands of the Chu army guards at the head of the city was raised like a forest, and they also shouted in unison: "Meet the Marquis of Quyang!" Victory! ”
