57. The whole army attacked

"Since it was called by Xunzi, of course I want to see it. But I don't even know his roots, how can I let him protect my safety? Zhao Kuo said.

After a while, a young man with a wooden sword on his back and wearing a sackcloth with disheveled hair walked in and bowed to Zhao Kuo.

"General, I'm a friend of Xunzi. He said that you are the one who can change the world, and let me come to you while you are not very developed. ”

All of them have achieved a general, which is not very developed. So what should Zhao Kuo look like?

Zhao Kuo smiled, beckoned the man to sit down, and asked, "Dare to ask what to call your feet?" ”

"Down, Ganie."

As soon as the man finished introducing himself, Sima Yue on the side stared at him closely, and several doormen next to Zhao Kuo who were responsible for Zhao Kuo's security also held their hands on the hilt of the sword.

Without him, Gai Nie, a ranger of the Wei Kingdom, has always had the name of a sword saint, and his swordsmanship is superb.

"It's Mr. Swordmaster." Sima Yue stood in front of Zhao Kuo and spoke.

Gai Nie was not surprised by such a scene. He chuckled lightly and said, "I have no hostility, otherwise I wouldn't have helped the general get rid of those who followed the general's tenants." What's more, the name of the Sword Saint has always belonged to your ancestor Sima Yue, Mr. Sima Kuai. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Kuo looked at Sima Yue in surprise, the doorman left by his father would march and fight, and arrange troops; He is also agile and can lead troops to charge, but he didn't expect to be after the Sword Master.

Sima Yue sneered and said, "I was originally from Hanoi, and speaking of which, I am the same as Sima Cuo's ancestor of the Qin State. Later, the family was divided into three branches, and I went to Zhao with my grandfather.

When I encountered a military disaster, it was Lao Jun who saved me and treated me as my own son. Shaojun and I grew up together, Lao Jun has never favored one over the other, and Shaojun also has a brotherhood with me. Before Lao Jun left, let me follow Shaojun. My life has long been promised to Shaojun. I, Sima Yue, must die in front of Shaojun in this life. ”

Zhao Kuo patted Sima Yue on the shoulder.

For the name Gai Nie, Zhao Kuo has an impression in his heart. This person's swordsmanship is superb, and the famous swordsman Jing Ke once discussed swordsmanship with him, but was scared away by his eyes. I don't know if this matter is true or not, but this person's strength can be seen.

Zhao Kuo was very happy at the first time, and this person wanted to come to him.

But then, he thought that this person was from Wei State, although he had helped him according to Xunzi's words, but the enemy and I were not clear, and it was difficult to say whether he came under an impostor or not.

And his new disciples have all made meritorious contributions on the battlefield. Many brave soldiers also killed countless enemies, and due to the limited quota, they were not selected for this doorman supplement, which was very sad.

At this time, it is unfair to these soldiers who were born and died with him.

Thinking of this, Zhao Kuo opened his mouth and said: "There is no doubt about the ability of Gai Nie Sword Saint, and I am very grateful for the previous things. It's just that I told the whole army that in order to become my disciple, you must have made meritorious contributions on the battlefield.

Moreover, all guests at my door are equal, and there is no such thing as getting on and off customers. If Mr. Gay Nie is willing, he can start with my pro-army. I often rush to the front and follow me, which is dangerous, but there are also many opportunities for meritorious service. ”

"What?" Gai Nie was very surprised by Zhao Kuo's statement.

Although he modestly said that Sima Yue's ancestor was the Sword Saint. But in fact, his swordsmanship spread throughout the land of China, and everyone knew his reputation.

Many princes and nobles, and even the kings of a country, wanted to invite Gai Nie as their personal bodyguard, or as the prince's swordsmanship teacher.

Gai Nie never expected that he had already deigned to come here to recommend himself in person, and as long as he was a guest, he was still politely refused.

Let yourself start as a big soldier!

His first reaction was that he had been humiliated. He Gai Nie has always only used wooden swords, because his swordsmanship is superb, and he doesn't need a bronze sword to kill.

The air instantly cooled.

Cheng Zhao was ready to call people, and there were at least hundreds of armor soldiers outside the tent door.

Sima Yue also put his hand on the hilt of the sword.

This is the barracks, not your rivers and lakes.

Sima Yue thought that he would not lose too much to Gai Nie in swordsmanship. Moreover, behind him is Zhao Kuo, and he will not retreat a step.

With a chuckle, the temperature in the air returned to normal.

"Good! I'll come to you as a personal soldier to see what kind of person Ma Fuzi is, who can be praised by Mr. Xunzi and personally entrusted me with protection. ”

"Very well, my king has brought a large quantity of cloth and dyes from the rear to buy winter clothes for our army. It has always been my own soldiers to assist in receiving things, just in case there is a gap. This time, please ask Gai Zhuangshi to bring some people to follow Cheng Zhao to do it. Zhao Kuo didn't dare to let Gai Nie keep a vigil for him at all, in case Gai Nie had any bad intentions, he would be in danger.

Compromises are only the first and the umpteenth.

Gai Nie gladly took the order and left.

At the same time, in the Changping battalion, countless Zhao troops were rapidly completing the assembly.

"Before, Shu Qi led 250,000 horses to attack Changping Pass, but not only did he succeed, but he was also scared away by the night attack of the Qin army, which is really ridiculous. Fortunately, the Sima who came out of nowhere is still there, and he has preserved his vitality, and there are still 200,000 left. The new coach Zhao Cong sat in the tent, full of pride.

Deputy General Feng Ji said with a smile: "But Sima Shang is a little ignorant, and he actually wants to stay with Zhao Kuo, and he is unwilling to come to serve, or I will take the tiger talisman and transfer him over." ”

"No, we're well staffed right now. When General Lian Po came to answer before, he brought 30,000 people with him, and he allocated half of them to me. Zhao Kuo allocated 100,000 yuan to me.

Moreover, I myself, I brought 50,000 elite cavalry composed of Lou Fu and Donghu people from northern Xinjiang, and their combat power is unparalleled, and they can be consumed at will. They are the key to our victory. Zhao Cong said.

"The Qin army was originally 650,000, but it was lost by Zhao Kuo in two battles, and more than 200,000 were lost, and now there are less than 400,000 left. In this battle, judging from the military situation, the enemy and our armies were evenly matched. ”

Zhao Cong nodded and asked, "Has Zhao Kuo's grain and grass been transferred?" ”

"Here it is, I counted it. Zhao Kuo still took the overall situation into account and took out ninety percent of their grain and grass. ”

"I heard before that Zhao Kuo was dissatisfied that he did not become the commander of this attack on Qin, and he was even unwilling to hand over Zheng Anping's tiger talisman and honor guard. I didn't expect the supply of grain and grass to be so happy. After this battle, the king will be listed and his merits will be credited. But our army has too many war horses, and the consumption is very large, so we can only fight quickly. ”

Feng Ji nodded and said, "In the past few days, we have had many small-scale battles with the Qin army on both sides of the Dan River. Our army has more wins and fewer losses. ”

Zhao Cong replied: "Of course, the people who are fighting now are all the Hu people I brought from the north, and they have been living in the sword light and blood shadow for a long time, they are very bloodthirsty and have extraordinary combat power. Judging from the battle situation in the past few days, I think that the so-called Qin army is extremely strong, but it is just a joke. ”

Feng Ji said with a smile: "Before the Battle of Changping, you and Zhao Kuo called me the two most powerful people in the younger generation of the Zhao State Clan. It's just that you are fighting against the Hu people outside the Saiwai, and Zhao Kuo is in Handan. He is like a river, and after he is a clan, the king is quite dissatisfied with Lian and wants to change the commander, so he naturally cheapens him. ”

Zhao Cong sneered: "If I was in Handan at the time, this handsome position would belong to me." The Qin army would not have taken possession of the Light Wolf City by now, and I would have driven it back to Hangu Pass long ago. ”

Feng Ji replied: "Now that Bai is up and dead, the morale of the Qin army is low, and the advantage is mine." I can serve under your command, and I am fortunate to have three lives. Just let Qin Jun see how powerful you are. ”

The next day, 400,000 Zhao troops attacked on all fronts.
