Chapter 142: The Qin State Rises Troops
The State of Qi was attacked by the State of Yan and was defeated one after another. Seeing that the army of Yan State continued to approach the capital of Qi State, Qi Hou once again drew troops from the country and let the army that attacked Huai State return.
Because of the attack on Huai, the Qi State transferred all the elites, and most of the people left in the country were old and weak. Because Yan has been fighting with Yidi all the year round, the soldiers are brave and good at fighting, and Qi can only rely on the city to resist and slow down the speed of Yan's attack.
On the other hand, after getting the news of Yan's attack, the general of Qi had an ugly face, and at this time the army of Qi was on the offensive, and he was about to break through Xiapi and occupy the land of Huaisi, but Yan attacked secretly, and even if the Qi general was unwilling, he had to retreat.
It's just that at this time, it's not like you can quit if you want to. Huai's secret guard in Qi got the news as soon as possible, and then passed it back, no later than the news that the lord of Qi would get.
Fan Jie is the son of Fan Li, although he is not as capable as his father, but his ability is also very good. After getting the news, immediately let the Fuji armor army prepare.
Since he led the army to defend Xiapi, he has not let the Tengjia army fight, even if there is a crisis on the battlefield, he has been holding back, for today.
He wants to convince the general of the Qi army that there is no vine armor army on the battlefield of Xiapi, and then release it at a critical time, and make a final decision.
And now is the opportunity.
Although the Qi army planned to withdraw its troops, it could not withdraw directly, so it still launched an attack, but the intensity of the attack was significantly reduced. And the number of people attacking was also much less.
The commander of the Qi army divided the army into two teams, one team retreated first, then stopped and camped, and the other team continued to retreat, so that the withdrawal of troops alternately was indeed a safe way, but he underestimated the strength of the vine armor army.
Seeing that the Qi army's offensive strength had weakened, Fan Jie decisively opened the city gate and led the Tengjia army to attack. The vine armor army was originally the elite of the Huai Kingdom, and during this period of time, it has been forcibly suppressed from fighting, watching the robe resist and die, and his heart has long been full of anger.
For a month in a row, Huai Guodu was only on the defensive, never attacking, and Qi Guodu was used to it. As a result, Huai Guo suddenly dispatched, Qi Guo did not react at all, and tens of thousands of Teng armor troops were like tigers out of the cage, one by one.
The siege army of Qi was directly defeated, and then the Tengjia army drove the rout to attack the Qi camp.
The speed of the Fujijia army was too fast, and the Qi army was in the period of withdrawal, but the Tengjia army broke through the camp in a battle, and the Qi army was defeated.
Seeing this situation, the Huai army immediately dispatched and launched an attack, and the rear army of Qi suffered heavy casualties. The Huai army pursued for fifty miles, and only then slowly retreated after seeing that another army of Qi had set up a camp to defend it.
The rear army of the Qi army suffered heavy casualties and did not dare to stay any longer, and the army quickly withdrew. And after Huai Guo won a game, he no longer pursued, after all, Huai Guo had insufficient troops, and at the same time, he had to deal with Chu and Sanjin, and he also needed to rush to support as soon as possible.
After seeing that Huai no longer pursued, Qi was also relieved, and evacuated all the way back to Qi to block the Yan army.
Just after Yan attacked Qi, Qin, which was far to the west, finally decided to send troops to attack Wei. At this time, a large number of soldiers were transferred to the land of the West River of Wei, and there were only 20,000 Wei soldiers left behind.
After seeing that Wei and Huai were stalemate on the land of Song, the Qin State suddenly felt that the opportunity had come, and in order to get the land of the West River, they immediately mobilized a national army and recruited all men over the age of fifteen and under the age of forty in the Qin State. Prepare to attack the land of the West River.
This time, the Qin State almost transferred a total of 500,000 men from the country, gathered a full 500,000 army, and attacked Hexi, after hearing the news, Wei Hou was also taken aback, the 500,000 army was really amazing.
You must know that in this battle, the six countries attacked Huai, and all the soldiers added up to only between 700,000 and 800,000. Now just one Qin State can draw an army of 500,000 troops.
But soon the Marquis of Wei reacted, Qin has only a large population, and now he has a 500,000 army, which is to bring all the young and strong people in the country.
The Qin State is the strength of the whole country, and it wants to fight a national war with the Wei State.
The Marquis of Wei hurriedly dispatched the army in the country, appointed the prince to attack as the commander to support Xihe, and at the same time ordered Wu Qi to recall the army.
Wu Qi was not surprised when he received the news that Qin had attacked the West River. Before he set out on the expedition, he had already expected that the Qin State would definitely not give up this opportunity, so he had already left arrangements in the land of the West River, and let Wei Wushu stay in defense, which was enough to support him to lead his army back to help.
For the Qin State to devote the power of the country to mobilize 500,000 troops to attack Wei, he sneered in his heart. In his opinion, the Qin State was completely the way to die, and among the 500,000 troops, at least 200,000 of them were poorly trained militiamen. How can you compete with the elite Wei Wushu?
The 500,000 Qin army was of no use except for being bloated in numbers.
However, if Wei returned to the army, the Sanjin not only did not take any advantage in this battle, but lost their troops and lost their generals, and almost nothing was gained. When the army set out, the Marquis of Wei discussed with Wu Qi, and when he captured the Song State and returned to the army, he took advantage of the situation to annex the Wei State.
In this way, not only can a large amount of land be obtained, but at the same time, the road to the Central Plains of Zhao will be completely blocked.
Now it seems that it is impossible to break through the Song State, but it is not difficult to annex and defend the country. Thinking of this, Wu Qi immediately summoned Han Zhaowei and the three countries to discuss the retreat.
Originally, Wei was the strongest among the four countries, but now Wei took the initiative to retreat, and several other countries were powerless to oppose it.
Therefore, the three Jin Dynasty discussed the method of retreating. The withdrawal of the Sanjin army did not hide it. Huaiguo naturally got the news for the first time.
Wang Pu did not order the army to pursue, in the face of Wu Qi, Wang Pu just wanted to fight in a daze, harden the village, and fight a little bit of consumption.
If it is greedy for merit at this time, once Wu Qi leaves an ambush on the way back, Huai Guo will suffer heavy losses at that time.
Wang Pu sent spies, and after Wu Qi led his troops to retreat, he waited another day before he began to regain the lost territory.
And Wang Pu's worries were indeed fulfilled, and seeing that Wang Pu's army was not pursuing, Wu Qi also withdrew the ambushed army. After Wang Pu heard the spies' report, he also had palpitations.
If you are greedy for merit this time, there is a chance that you will fall into the trap.
It's just that what surprised Wang Pu was that when Wei retreated to Weiguo, he immediately annexed Weiguo, and on the grounds that Weiguo, the monarch of Weiguo, usurped the throne, abolished it, and set up a new monarch, leaving a city as its fief.
Korea and Zhao did not react at all, and Wei Guo was occupied. This made Zhao Hou very angry, but after seeing the strength of Wei Wushu, he didn't dare to say anything for a while, but he became more and more jealous of Wei Hou in his heart.
