Chapter 288: Attacking the State of Chu
In fact, this news is not a big deal,
Rather, it is the state of Qin, which has recently made new military moves.
From the hands of Qianguo, a piece of land was occupied.
In the two years since the decisive battle with the state of Chu, the state of Qin has always been recuperating and rejuvenating.
Until recent months,
It seems to be relieving.
Qin Guo's movements began to gradually become more frequent. πΌ.ππ€πΏππ¬.πΎπΎπ Ό
In this case,
The first to bear the brunt were the Qianguo and Zhao states, which were located at the gate of the Qin state.
merely
Zhao Guo is a difficult bone to gnaw, and for Qin Guo, it must be more cost-effective to pick soft persimmons and pinch them.
So,
Qianguo became the unlucky one.
One city today, two tomorrow.
In just a few months, the territory of Qianguo has shrunk by one-third.
The point is
Qianguo can't beat it.
Ask for help, Zhao and Chu were silent again.
It's like the waves of the early days of World War II.
It's very good, and it's against Qin.
As a result, when the Qin State really came, the surrounding countries all watched from the wall.
It's as if the fire didn't burn on you, you didn't have anything to lose.
Isn't it?
Today, another piece of detail has sent back news,
The Qianguo ceded three counties in exchange for the Qin state's retreat.
Seeing this news, Han Lin was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Is there a map of Qianguo now?" β
"I'm beaten every day, I'm very curious, how much land is still in Qianguo."
soon
The latest map of Qianguo was presented.
After reading it, Han Lin couldn't help but laugh out loud.
If you leave behind those inconspicuous little countries,
At present, the map of the Qianguo is like a gourd, located in the middle of the Zhao and Qin states.
The gourd in the upper part is Shangdang County, with the Qin State on the left and the Zhao State on the right.
As for the capital of the Qianguo, it is in the lower half of the gourd, which is also connected to the Qin state, but the neighbor on the other side is the Wei state.
In the face of such a map,
Even a fool can see it,
Once the main road in the middle of the gourd is occupied, it will directly and completely disconnect the northern and southern parts of Qianguo.
It can be said that
Qin's actions in recent months, and the territory they seized from the Qianguo, were all premeditated.
It is almost rushing for the complete destruction of the Qianguo.
merely
I don't know if I was worried that Zhao, Chu, Qian and other countries would unite with each other, so I adopted the routine of boiling frogs in warm water.
Take one or two of your cities at a time.
It hurts you, but it's not fatal.
At the same time, it will not cause panic in neighboring countries.
In fact, according to Han Lin's idea, if you want to fight, you can directly go out of the main force.
All in one battle.
The destruction of the country in World War I was over.
If it is united?
Then hit it in one piece!
Due to the recent actions of the Qin State one after another, Han Lin, who was looking at the map, unconsciously became active.
"Qi is not ...... It's time to do something about it? β
Thinking of this,
Han Lin immediately found Guan Zhong, Yan Ying, Wei Qing and others to discuss.
......
The Imperial Study.
All the bigwigs of Qi gathered together,
Although they are all characters summoned by the system, they are now placed in this world, and they have long been famous all over the world and have become a well-known existence.
Pointing to the map of Kyushu on the table, Han Lin said lightly: "The Qin State has become more and more restless in the past few months, and I feel that the Qi State is also resting, and it is time to make some moves." β
"I look at this place in Chu Kingdom, it's pretty good, what do you think of Aiqing?"
As soon as the words fell,
Yan Ying smiled faintly and said, "Since Your Majesty has decided, it is enough to immediately reorganize the armament for war, so why do you need to discuss with me and others in a fake way?" β
Han Lin: "??? β
Just know what's going on in your own heart, what do you mean?
originally
It's not your suggestion that you should unite with Qin to attack Chu together.
"Ahem~"
Han Lin glared at Yan Ying, coughed dryly and continued: "Since you Aiqing also think that the Chu State is profitable, since this is the case, you can reorganize the army for war, and this matter will be handed over to General Wei to be fully responsible, and Yan Ying, you go to the Qin State and ask them to send troops to attack the Chu State from the west, and attack from both sides." β
"It's all gone."
Brief operational meetings,
Before and after, the time added together is less than three minutes.
It was already up to Han Lin to decide the goal of the campaign.
For such a result,
Wei Qing could only smile bitterly and began to prepare for the war.
meantime
Yan Ying also set off the next day and went straight to Qin.
After a month of intensive preparation,
The mobilization for war has been completed.
This time, in order to fight for Chu in the south, Wei Qing mobilized a total of 300,000 troops.
Among them, there were 100,000 cavalry troops and 200,000 infantry troops.
Attack the state of Chu from Linzi and Jinling respectively, two directions.
As for the commander of the Jinling Front, Zhang Liao naturally served as the commander-in-chief.
It can be said that
In order to conquer the state of Chu,
Han Lin also made a bloody investment.
Now these armies have been displayed on the border of Chu State, ready to go.
meantime
In the rear,
Countless grains and grasses have been prepared, enough to cope with half a year's worth of grain for an army of 300,000.
The reason why Wei Qing has not moved, he is also waiting for Yan Ying's return.
A few days later,
Yan Ying returned to Linzi and brought back news from the Qin State.
The state of Qin agreed to send troops, led by Li Xin, with an army of 200,000, down the river to attack the western part of the state of Chu, and agreed to follow the state of Qi and take other mountains as the boundary.
Beshan,
It is located between the Yangtze River and the Huai River, connecting Tongbai Mountain in the west and Yanhuo Mountain in the east, showing a northwest-southeast trend.
In today's Chu State, the east and west are just separated by other mountains.
It can be said that Qin's proposal is quite fair.
From it, the state of Chu was directly divided in half.
After a short discussion, Han Lin nodded and agreed to Qin's request, and immediately sent envoys to Qin.
This time, of course, there is no need for Yan Ying to go over in person.
Just send someone to inform the Qin State, this side has agreed to the request, and agreed on a time to attack.
This trip back and forth is another month to spend.
In the midst of this time,
Chu is not blind, how could he not see the movements of Qi and Qin.
After perceiving the killing intent of the two countries,
The State of Chu immediately sent people to the State of Zhao and various small countries around it, asking all countries to immediately send troops to rescue.
If it is an ordinary small country,
Maybe turn a blind eye and pass.
For example, the Qianguo was almost eaten up by the Qin State, and the Zhao State did not move a single soldier.
But
In the face of Chu's request for help,
It is impossible for Zhao Guo to stay out of the matter any longer.
After all, everyone knows the truth of cold lips and teeth.
If the state of Chu is like this
