Chapter 256: After gnawing on one, there is still one

[Li Mu is the confidant of the Qin army, and with him, it will be difficult for the Qin army to destroy the Zhao State.

However, no matter how strong the fortress is, it can't help but collapse from the inside. 】

[In order to eradicate Li Mu, the tiger that stands in the way, Wang Jian resorted to a discordant plan.

He sent someone to bribe King Zhao's favored minister Guo Kai with a lot of money (sorry, when I talk about Guo Kai, I think of King Jiji, is it too poisoned), and spread rumors that Li Mu Sima Shang is plotting to rebel against the king.

Zhao Wangqian listened to Guo Kai's slander, ordered Zhao Cong and Yan Ju to replace Li Mu and Sima Shang as generals, and forced Li Mu to death. 】

[As soon as Li Mu dies, Wang Jian has no opponent! ]

In March of the nineteenth year of the reign of King Qin, Wang Jian took advantage of Li Mu's killing by Zhao Wangqian, launched a fierce attack, defeated the Zhao army in one fell swoop, beheaded Zhao Cong, and occupied Dongyuan.

In October of the same year, Wang Jian conquered Handan, captured Zhao Wangqian, and the son of Zhao Guo Jia led the remnants of the clan to flee north, and stood on his own in Daidi, known as the king of Dai, and the Zhao State at this time had already existed in name only. 】

"King Zhao moved to destroy the Great Wall, and he should destroy the country!"

"In fact, looking at history, are there still few things about us destroying the Great Wall?"

"Yes, for example, Wanyan Dog, he not only destroyed the Great Wall, but also plucked the foundation by the way."

[After the Qin State conquered Handan, after Zhao Gongzi Jiabei fled, Wang Jian and Xin Sheng led the Qin army to the north, and the troops were in Yishui.

The Qin army pressed the border, and the Yan country was in a panic.

Yan Prince Dan set up a plan to surrender, but secretly sent Jing Ke to enter the Qin palace with the head of Yan Guoyu Tu and Qin rebel general Fan Yuzhi, trying to find an opportunity to assassinate Qin Wang Yingzheng.

However, Jing Ke's assassination of the King of Qin ended in failure, and the King of Qin ordered Wang Jian and Xin Sheng to lead an army to attack Yan. 】

[Yishui is the border between Yan and Zhao, and it is a place where Yan is heavily defended, and at this time, the Zhao Dynasty formed a coalition army, which became an obstacle for the Qin army to enter Yan in the north.

In order to defeat the Yan-Zhao coalition army, Wang Jian led the main force to cross the Yishui River from the upper reaches and surrounded the weaker Yan army in the upper reaches. 】

[In the twenty-first year of the reign of King Qin (226 BC), Wang Jian conquered the Yan capital Jicheng, and Yan Wangxi and Prince Dan fled to Liaodong.

The Qin general Li Xin pursued the victory, and defeated the prince Dan again in Yanshui, eliminating the last living force of the Yan State.

Although King Yingzheng of Qin did not agree to Yan's request for peace, he did not rush to kill them all, but waved his troops south, preparing to deal with the more difficult Wei and Chu states. 】

[Wei is located in the middle of the world, and it was a hegemon in the early Warring States period.

However, because of the geographical location, he, like Korea, was constantly attacked by neighboring countries such as Qin, Zhao, Qichu, and finally became the last vassal state like Korea, and by the time of the fall of the Zhao State, only the capital Daliang and some nearby cities remained.

In the twenty-second year of the reign of King Qin (225 BC), Wang Ben, the son of Wang Qian, led an army to besiege Daliang. As the former overlord of Wei, its capital city was high and deep, and it was difficult for the Qin army to conquer for a while.

When the strong attack failed, Wang Ben captured all the cities near Daliang and implemented the strategy of clearing the wilderness with strong walls, so that Daliang lost external support and became an isolated city.

Subsequently, Wang Ben led the water of the Yellow River and the chasm to irrigate the city, and after three months of blistering, the city wall of Daliang finally collapsed, and the king of Wei had to drive a small boat out of the city to surrender to the Qin army, and the Wei state perished.

Don't say it, if King Wei fakes and brings a hat and a robe, this picture is quite meaningful. 】

“.”

"Su Shangshen, you are still the most skinny."

"I can imagine that picture, that is, King Wei is fake, I'm afraid he will be a little aggrieved."

[After the destruction of the Wei State, King Yingzheng of Qin sent Li Xin and Meng Wu, the father of Meng Tian, to lead an army of 200,000 and attack Chu in two ways. And Qin Annihilated Chu at a huge price! 】

[At the beginning of the war, Ying Zheng asked his two generals, Li Xin and Wang Qian, their views on the troops they needed to conquer the Chu State.

Li Xin was full of confidence, saying that as long as he had 200,000 troops, he could directly take Chudu; Wang Jian insisted that he needed 600,000 troops to ensure victory.

Ying Zheng thought that Wang Jian was old, old and timid, too conservative and lost the enterprising spirit of the soldiers.

In the end, Ying Zheng chose Li Xin, while Wang Jian chose to return to his hometown. 】

[Ying Zheng seems to praise Li Xin's bravery, but in fact ignores Wang Qian's thoughtful strategy.

In the twenty-third year of the reign of King Qin (224 BC), the first emperor used Li Xin as the main general and Meng Tian as the deputy general, raised 200,000 troops, and sent troops to the state of Chu.

Li Xin's ancestral residence in Zhao State, his ancestor was born as a doctor, and the beginning of the general was Li Tong, who was a general under the account of King Wuling of Zhao.

Li Tong's son, Zhao Guoxiangguo Li Dui, was brave, and he starved and killed King Zhao Wuling in the Dune Palace.

After Li Dui's death, the Li family was excluded and suppressed in the Zhao State, and some of them moved to the Qin State and began a difficult entrepreneurial process.

The Li family is brave and good at fighting, and by the fifth generation of the Li family, they have served as generals in the Qin army.

The seventh generation of Li Chong, the official to Longxi Taishou, became a Taishou in the birthplace of the Qin people, and the Li family is not simple. The eighth generation of Li Yao, the official to the Nanjun Taishou, was in charge of the area near Yingdu, the old capital of the Chu State, and the Li family was further developed.

Li Xin is the ninth generation from Li Tong and is a native of Qin. 】

[After Li Xin led the main force of the Qin army to send troops, he conquered Pingyu and Yingchen all the way, and Meng Wu led a Qin army to capture the city, and finally the two armies met at the city father.

Although the Qin army said that it was even a few cities, it never had a head-on battle with the main force of the Chu army led by Xiang Yan.

However, Xiang Yan took advantage of Li Xin's lone army to go deeper, followed behind, and when the Qin army was completely lost, the Jedi counterattacked, chased for three days in a row, and defeated the Qin army.

The Qin army lost seven commanders, and the 35,000 men and horses under the jurisdiction of these seven commanders were also wiped out. The other teams also suffered heavy losses to varying degrees, and the Qin army's 200,000 troops lost nearly half.

With Li Xin's character, he certainly won't give up easily.

However, the current morale and strength were really impossible to turn things around, so Li Xin had no choice but to send people to Xianyang to ask the first emperor for his guilt. 】

[After a great defeat in the first battle, King Yingzheng of Qin decided to reactivate the veteran Wang Jian and mobilize 600,000 Qin troops again.

Wang Jian led this army, which was already almost the entire strength of the Qin State, and launched another attack on the Chu State.

Although the state of Chu has declined, but the great power heritage is still there, Wang Jian gave up Li Xin's rash action of quick success, and after obtaining Yingchen, Shangcai, Pingyu and other places, he built a fortress and did not come out of the wall.

At this time, the Qin State had destroyed four of the six countries, and the entire north except for the Qi State was Qin soil, and there was time and capital to consume with the Chu State, on the other hand, the Chu State, although it defeated Li Xin, was still lagging behind the Qin State in terms of overall strength, and the form was not optimistic.

Xiang Yan led the main force of the Chu army to garrison along the Huai River, but did not see Wang Jian attacking, and the Chu army, which was already on the defensive, had to wait and see, but the king of Chu blamed Xiang Yan for cowardice and ordered Xiang Yan to take the initiative to attack. 】

[Under the order of the king of Chu, Xiang Yan had no choice but to attack the Qin army, but the Qin army could neither fight nor break through the camp, so Xiang Yan had to lead the army to the east.

The scheming Wang Jian took advantage of Xiang Yan's retreat at this time to rush out of the nest and pursue the Chu army to the Yinghe River, and the two armies fought.

The battle between Qin and Chu is really like the sky falling, landslide and tsunami!

Just a whole night of hard work, corpses were scattered all over the field, rivers of blood flowed, and it was extremely miserable. 】
