Chapter 143: The Battle of Hexi

A series of riotous operations of the Wei State directly annexed most of the Wei State, leaving only the land within a radius of less than 100 miles from the Wei State Emperor Hill.

After the Wei army withdrew, in order to ease relations with Zhao and Korea, Wei Hou gave up several small cities and handed them over to Korea and Zhao.

For Wei Hou, he has been very proficient in this routine of slapping a sweet date. Since the division of the three Jin families, for decades, he has used this way to maintain the union of the three Jins, even if the Zhao State is very dissatisfied, but it is still suppressed by the Marquis of Wei.

In the hall of the Wei Kingdom, the atmosphere is a little dignified.

"Fan Qing, what's the situation in Hexi now?"

"Your Majesty, the land west of the river is still in our hands, and the Qin State has conquered three cities." An official said.

"500,000 Qin troops are attacking, and another Huai State is eyeing each other, do you have any countermeasures?"

"The Huai army has 200,000 people, and the elite of the Huai army is not inferior to soldiers, if it is a large-scale attack, we need at least more than 100,000 to block it, and there are only 50,000 people left in the land west of the river." Another secretary stepped forward and said.

"50,000 vs. 500,000, who is sure that they can defeat the Qin State?" Wei Hou asked.

"Your Majesty, the minister is willing to lead 50,000 Wei soldiers to attack Qin." Wu Qi stepped out of his seat and said.

"50,000 vs. 500,000?" Wei Hou is under a lot of pressure, he is also proficient in military strategy, and the difference in strength is ten times, how can he fight? Even if a third of them are old pawns, it is also an amazing force, not to mention that the strength of the Qin people is not weak.

"Are you sure?" Wei Hou asked.

Wu Qi said: "Your Majesty, the Qin people were defeated a few years ago and suffered heavy losses. ”

"Among these Qin people, there are few old soldiers, many strong people, although it seems that there are many people, but they are just a group of rabble, and the ministers are willing to lead 50,000 Wei soldiers to break it in a battle."

Hearing that Wu Qi was so confident, Wei Hou also chose to believe him, after all, over the years, Wu Qi led his army to the east and west, and he had not tasted defeat. Since he said that 50,000 Wei warriors could defeat the Qin army, then he believed him.

Immediately, the Marquis of Wei said: "Okay, since Wu Qing is so sure, then order you to lead 50,000 Wei soldiers to defeat the Qin army." ”

Wu Qi thanked him, and then said: "Your Majesty, the minister led 50,000 Wei soldiers to fight with the Qin army, and the king needs to promise the minister a few things, and the minister will be sure of victory!" ”

"If you are sure of victory, let alone a few, you can agree to a dozen or dozens of lonely pieces!" Wei Hou immediately said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Wu Qi continued: "Your Majesty, please hold a celebration banquet in the palace, so that those who have made meritorious contributions in the army can enter the main hall, and those who have made meritorious contributions can feast and drink outside the palace, but the food of the banquet is inferior, and those who have no merit sit on the edge of the palace, and the banquet is the worst." ”

"After the banquet is over, please also send an envoy to visit the wives and families of those who have rewarded meritorious service, and also send envoys to the families of soldiers who died in the war to express condolences and reward their parents, so as to show that they will not forget."

"Why is that?" Some ministers asked.

"When a soldier dies for a confidant, the king rewards and punishments are clear, attaches importance to the soldiers, and gives them courtesy and honor, and the soldiers of the Wei State are naturally willing to die. If you can do it, our army will win this battle! Wu Qi arched his hand and said.

After Wei Hou heard this, he immediately said that he had agreed to all these things, and even ordered a large number of people to hold a banquet and invite those who had made meritorious contributions to Wei Wu's pawn to the banquet.

When I saw that those who had made meritorious contributions could enter the hall and have a banquet with the Marquis of Wei, and those who had made meritorious contributions could also drink outside the hall, while those who had not made meritorious contributions could only drink at the palace walls.

The actions of Wei Hou and Wu Qi greatly boosted the morale of Wei Wushu, and one by one they spontaneously wore armor and came to ask for battle.

Seeing that the military heart was available, Wei Hou was very happy.

After the banquet, Wu Qi immediately selected 50,000 Wei soldiers who had not made meritorious deeds and rushed to the land of Hexi.

The Wei army was very fast, and everyone wanted to make meritorious deeds, so the Marquis of Wei sent another 500 chariots and 3,000 cavalry as scouts to go together.

Soon Wu Qi led the army to the land of Hexi, at this time the army of Qin had reached the Yin and Jin Dynasty, and the land of Hexi was in danger, after seeing this situation, Wu Qi immediately issued an order to the three armies: "All the soldiers and I will go to fight together, no matter who can't capture or kill the enemy, even if this battle is won, there is no credit!" ”

The morale of the 50,000 Wei warriors was high, and they all wanted to make meritorious deeds, looking at the Qin army without the slightest fear, but as if they were looking at prey.

Qin's 500,000-strong army attacked Wei, which can be said to be the strength of the whole country. In addition to more than 100,000 old soldiers in the Qin army, the others are only trained for less than a month, and the army looks huge, but the command is chaotic, the orders are inconsistent, and a large number of soldiers lack training. Completely dependent on the strength of the crowd and the number of cities.

Seeing the Wei army's 50,000 troops coming, the Qin army had no Wei army. The chief general of the Qin army even claimed that he would break Wei in a battle and recapture the land west of the river.

However, the Qin State urgently dispatched troops, and among the 500,000 Qin troops, there were not even enough armament tents, and a large number of Qin soldiers only had weapons in their hands, and the logistics were even more in a mess.

Early the next morning.

Wu Qi ordered the three armies, and when he saw that the Qin army's military formation was chaotic and his orders were different, he immediately laughed and said: "Such a rabble, how can it be my military opponent?" The second and third sons, the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road! Achievements are only in the present day! Rush! ”

Immediately led 50,000 Wei soldiers to rush straight to the Qin army, and 50,000 Wei soldiers who were eager to make meritorious contributions took the lead one by one, directly tearing through the Qin army, and the army was like a sharp knife, piercing the Qin army.

Wu Qi led Wei Wushu to break through seven formations in a row, directly chiseled through the Qin army's military formation, and then turned his head again to kill the Qin army.

Wei Wushu formed an army formation and constantly slaughtered one Qin army after another. Wu Qi led his guards directly to the Qin army's commander, who originally wanted to win a big battle and seize the land west of the river, but the 500,000 army was beaten and was unable to carry out his orders.

After seeing Wu Qi leading the army towards him, he immediately said: "The army is chaotic, there is a tendency to rout, this battle is a battle for the whole country of our Qin army, you and I have no way to retreat, if you want to win, you can only kill the generals and capture the flag, and you will kill the enemy with me!" ”

As he spoke, he pulled out his sword and pointed at Wu Qi, who was rushing in front of him, and also led his guards to rush over, but the Qin army's formation was in chaos, and the morale plummeted.

Wu Qi saw the Qin army rushing towards him, he was not afraid at all, Wei Wushu was even more brave to take the lead, the main general of the Qin army was desperate, wanting to kill the general and capture the flag, but he was directly defeated by Wu Qi and led the army, and the general captured the flag. With the Qin army lord about to be killed, Daxu fell to the ground with a bang, and the Qin army could no longer hold on and collapsed.

——

The Qin army of 500,000 people attacked Wei, Wu Qi led Wei Wushu 50,000 to meet the enemy, the two armies fought in Yin and Jin, Wu Qi ordered the three armies to say: "All the officials should ride from the enemy's chariot and apprentice." If the car is not carred, the ride is not ridden, and the vain is not in vain, although the army is broken, it is useless. "Wei Wushu took the lead bravely and won a great victory.

Why? Wu Zi said: "The king has meritorious service and enters the feast, and has no merit and encouragement." So Wuhou set up a temple for the three elements, and feasted on the doctor. sit on the gong and move forward, and the food and heavy equipment go to prison; The second power sits in the middle of the line, the difference in the table is reduced, the reactive power sits in the back, and the table has no weight. After the feast was completed, he also awarded the parents and wives of the meritorious people outside the temple gate, and also took merit as a difference. There is a house of death, and the messenger of the year gives his parents and does not forget it. It's Megatron! - "Wu Zi Lishi"
