I’m The King Chapter 268: :Beacon smoke

There was silence in the big tent, two rows of generals stood upright, everyone looked at Zhao Mu who was in the middle of the big tent after the tiger case, but they were extremely surprised, Zhao Mu sat still, but his face changed, obviously, He is struggling with something in his heart, as if there is something extremely difficult, making it difficult for him to make a decision.

The surprise of the generals is not without reason. In their minds, Zhao Mu has always been a decisive and unsparing person. What made him hesitate so much?

Of course Zhao Mu hesitated in his heart. This is not an ordinary war. If it is not done well, it will affect the national destiny of the Zhao country. The information of the hammer was delivered at the risk of death, but he needs to decide whether it is true or not. Judgment, is it a hoax, or is it true?

He slowly raised his head, and tried to use a calm tone to describe the fate to all the generals.

In the big tent, the pot suddenly exploded. After a brief surprise, they were divided into two completely different factions about the next military operation. One faction wanted to take advantage of the emptiness of Hangu Pass and attack aggressively, while the other faction demanded Send troops to Daijun to prevent the Qin army from taking advantage of the situation and entering Daijun after defeating the Huns.

The two factions of generals represent two different viewpoints, one is aggressive and offensive, and the other is mainly defensive.

Arguing for a while, but no one can convince anyone. In the end, everyone turned their attention to Zhao Mu. At this time, only he can make a final decision.

Zhao Mu took a deep breath, this responsibility, after all, has to be carried by himself.

"It's impossible to return to Daijun." Zhao Mu slowly shook his head, "It's too late, even if the Xiongnu can last a while longer, so that we can rush to Daijun, but the long journey, the soldiers are tired Exhausted, how to fight? The reason why I hesitate is not because of this, but because I am worried that this is a scam. If this is the case, once we send troops, we will definitely step into the opponent's trap."

"If all this is true, we have only one way, and that is to storm Hangu Pass, take him down, and then force Xianyang to force Li Xin not to enter Daijun, but to return to aid as quickly as possible Xianyang."

"General, if all this is true, Hangu Pass must have already been prepared. It may be very difficult to defeat him. Li Xin is not there, but Yingteng is still there!" a general worried Authentic.

Zhao Mu stood up, "This battle, in a big sense, we have already lost. The fierce attack on Hangu is just to force Li Xin to return to help. It doesn't matter whether we can win or not. "He sighed a long time, "From now on, our struggle with the Qin State has completely fallen into a disadvantage. Hangu Pass is no longer the only point for the Qin army to attack. In the future, they can pass through the Huns. area, directly marching into Dai Commandery, into Zhao Guo, we can only passively defend everywhere.”

All the generals are silent.

"I have written to the king to end the war with the Yan Kingdom immediately. Even if we pay some price for this, we must stop the war." Zhao Mu said: "Zhou Changshou, take 5,000 people from the headquarters and attack Changping Village. Wu Zeng, You also command 5,000 troops from the headquarters to attack Yangfeng Village, and the rest of the troops should be ready to attack Hangu Pass at any time." Zhao Mu ordered.

"I obey!" The two generals who were called out strode out, clasped their fists at Zhao Mu, turned around and strode out of the tent.

"It's right and wrong, we'll see right away." Zhao Mu looked extremely tired.

Changping Village and Yangfeng Village are the guards on the two wings of Hangu Pass. Zhao Mu can't take risks and can only test it out first. There are clues.

But such a cautious strategy will delay Zhao Mu for several days, but Zhao Mu also has no other way, if he does it carelessly, once he falls into a trap, Li Xin and Ying Teng will be the two of them. His ability is enough to put him in a state of extinction.

The battlefield in Hedong, which had been quiet for a long time, suddenly became turbulent. When the two troops of the Zhao army were rushing to Changping and Yangfeng, in Hangu Pass, Qin army veteran Ying Teng also got the news.

He laughed, "Zhao Mu still knows, be careful, don't change from the past, order Chang Ping, Yang Feng, fierce resistance, how many days can last as many days, the whole army is dead, it is not allowed Take a step back from the stockade, now, we are fighting for one more day, just one day!"

For the sake of big strategic goals, the defenders of these two military strongholds can no longer be taken care of. These are the two most important military strongholds on the two wings of Hangu Pass. There are usually more than 5,000 troops stationed there. Each village can accommodate tens of thousands of Qin soldiers, but now, the two villages only have 2,000 people each.

"Correct old Qin, go to war for the country, don't shed blood, never stop fighting!" The expression on Ying Teng's face became grim, "For the sake of Da Qin, I will not rest until I die! They go first, and I come later. "

"Yes!" Inside Hangu Pass, the generals of the Qin Army roared like thunder.

With the sound of war drums and shouts, the land of Hedong, after many years of silence, once again ignited a raging war. The two great powers in the world, Qin and Zhao, once again broke out in a large-scale war conflict. In the past, the two countries fought, Almost all of them were Qin State's main attack and Zhao State's main defense, but this time, it was Zhao State who suddenly launched an extremely fierce attack on Qin State.

Inside the Hedong camp, the tense wartime atmosphere shrouded every corner. The location of Zhao Mu's Chinese military camp.

The first day of Zhao Mu's attack on Changping and Yangfeng.

The Zhao army attacked fiercely, and the Qin army resisted tenaciously. Under Zhao Mu's request, every hour, a messenger came to the camp to report the military situation to Zhao Mu, and listened to the reports from the sentries. , Zhao Mu's brows were furrowed tightly, and inside the big tent, the generals who were resting on their guns were also extremely anxious.

When night fell, the Zhao army who attacked the two villages made no progress, and the two villages were still controlled by the Qin army.

"You mean that the Qin army has never left the village to fight?"

"Yes!"

"Are they showing signs of retreating?"

"No! The battle is extremely fierce, and our army has to pay a huge price for every step forward."

Listening to the messenger's words, Zhao Mu's frown that had been frowned slowly relaxed, "Go back and tell you two generals to stop attacking and monitor their movements. If they don't leave the stronghold, there is no need to fight again." Already." Zhao Mu waved his hand and said to the two messengers on the ground.

"Yes!"

The other generals of the Zhao army in the tent were unknown, so they all looked at Zhao Mu in surprise.

In Zhuo Li's big tent, Zhao Mu's face has regained his usual self-confidence, "The whole army is attacking, the goal is Hangu Pass!"

"Obey!" Although I don't understand why Zhao Mu suddenly made up his mind, it is much more comfortable to attack than to stay in the big tent and passively listen to the military situation ahead. Many generals responded loudly. A small trot out of the Chinese army tent.

A moment later, fire dragons came out from Dongdaying, divided into several paths, and went straight to Hangu Pass.

Zhao Mu was not sure whether this information was true or not, but he couldn't wait for the news from the Xiongnu on the grassland. , to attack the two fortresses that are crucial to Hangu Pass, if these two fortresses show weakness, Zhao Mu really dare not move casually, but the more fierce the resistance in these two places, the more calm Zhao Mu will be, If you really want to lure yourself into the game, then Changping and Yangfeng will never fight to the death.

In the middle of the night, in Hangu Pass, Yingteng had just fallen asleep when he was awakened by a knock on the door.

"Great general, Zhao Mu came straight to Hangu Pass after setting up the Hedong camp." Outside the door, a Qin general was anxious in his tone.

Ying Teng stood up and hurriedly put on his armor, "Changping, has Yangfeng fallen?"

"No, the guards of the two places just sent back the messenger, and the Zhao army stopped attacking shortly after entering the darkness."

Ying Teng was taken aback for a while, then shook his head, "Zhao Mu is Zhao Mu after all, such a trick could not fool him for long. Come on, come on, we are going to have a showdown at Hangu Pass."

"General, do you want to withdraw the defenders from Changping and Yangfeng?"

"I can't get back!" Ying Teng said: "Zhao Mu must have arranged, they may live longer if they stay in the stockade."

In Hangu Pass, the alarm bell rang continuously, and on the city wall, countless torches were suddenly ignited, illuminating the entire Hangu Pass brightly. A thousand meters away from the wall, the horses stopped, and more infantry lined up, relying on the wall to form an array, and a bed crossbow was pushed out and placed in front of the army formation.

The Qin army has never defended the city, but has always fought against the city. Even if the Zhao army has an absolute superiority in strength, the Qin army will not change their proud nature.

It took less than an hour for the Qin army to set up their formation, and fire dragons appeared in their field of vision. The Zhao character banner was particularly eye-catching in the eyes of the fire.

Above the city wall, Ying Teng smiled all over his face, "I'm lucky to be able to confront Zhao Mu again in my lifetime."

Dai County, Xiling City is far away, the Xiongnu King Ye Lucheng laughed loudly, this time the Xiongnu took advantage of Zhao's foreign troubles, and broke into Dai County hundreds of miles in one fell swoop. The richer they become, the Zhao people in the inland area are all wealthy compared to the poor people on the frontier. Carloads full of looted gold and silver treasures are constantly heading towards their hometowns. The patriarchs of every Xiongnu tribe are beaming with joy.

Xiling City is tall and majestic. Even though it is only seen from a distance, it also gives people a great sense of oppression. However, they have no ambition to take down this city. I can go home contentedly, Xiling City is the capital of Dai County, and the surrounding area is very rich.

The cavalry came and went, and the Huns hardly encountered any effective resistance in Daijun. People have almost entered the land of no one. After so many years, has there ever been a war that is as comfortable and smooth as this one!

Every Hun never imagined that the catastrophe was just around the corner. Behind them, the powerful Qin army had already set up a trap and was waiting for their return.
