I’m The King Chapter 738: : The sound of drums and horns is sharp (10)
Qin Capital, Xianyang, inside the huge black marble palace, King Qin Wulie still sits cross-legged on the cold ground, the map under him has changed a lot, the whole South Korea , have been incorporated into the territory of the Qin people. -In a few years, King Qin Wulie had a lot of gray hair on his temples, most of which were added after Wang Xiao's defeat. That battle made the people of Qin very painful for a while, and the twenty thousand elites of the Qin State did not mean that they could be trained by training. More importantly, the defeat of this battle made Zhao Guo's host and guest on the Hedong front easy to change. The Zhao people were aggressive, Jing Rufeng would attack from time to time, and small groups of troops would bypass Hangu from time to time. Pass, attack the Qin native land. Even when Li Xin arrived at Hangu Pass, this situation was only slightly reversed. On the east line, the Zhao people still took the initiative.
Although Jing Rufeng has served for many years, he still deserves to be one of the people who know Qin Bing best. When Feng became a general, Li Xin was just a schoolboy, and Jing Rufeng has devoted himself to studying the combat characteristics of Li Xin, Zhao Mu and others for decades, so that he can be regarded as an opponent when fighting Li Xin. The first thing is to know yourself and the enemy. When Li Xin first arrived at Hangu Pass, he suffered from him several times. It was not until this year that Li Xin finally stabilized the situation.
As always, sitting in front of King Qin Wulie were his most trusted ministers, the emperor Li Ru, Li Xin who came back from Hangu Pass, the supreme leader of the Black Bingtai Zhongli, and the Qin Chu Border Pass. Meng Tian who rushed back, besides these few people, Shizi Yingying also sat behind King Qin Wulie. As King Qin Wulie's health deteriorated day by day, Yingying has gradually participated in politics.
King Qin Wulie's intentions are already obvious, and the support of Li Xin and other generals also gave Yingying great political leverage.
"Let's listen to Zhong Hou first." King Qin Wulie turned his head to look at Hou Zhongli in the pass.
Zhong Li nodded. "Everyone, let's talk about Gao Yuan, General Zhengdong of the Yan Kingdom. Although he only lives in a corner, there is no doubt that his every move can stir the pulse of the world."
"Hou Guannei's words are not bad. This kid shows his sharpness and aggressiveness. People have to look at him with admiration!" King Qin Wulie sighed, "Back then, I really underestimated this kid."
"The most shocking thing about this person is the battle of Hetao with Donghu last winter. At the beginning, we, and I believe everyone in other countries, were not optimistic about Gaoyuan, thinking that if he could hold the Hetao A stronghold is already a remarkable achievement, but this is not the case. After several months of Hetao battle, it finally ended with Gao Yuan's complete victory. Donghu paid not only 50,000 cavalry, but also several of their generals. Among them is the famous Yan Qi. This battle has completely laid the foundation of Gaoyuan on this land. Now, we can no longer regard him as a vassal who lives in one place. We really want to regard him as A king who can be our enemy." As soon as Zhong Li opened his mouth, he calmed Meng Tian, who had just returned from the Qin Chu border, he didn't know Gao Yuan very well.
"The Marquis of the Guannei regards this person so much?" He asked in surprise.
"Gaoyuan now occupies Liaoxi County and Hejian County, and basically controls the entire prairie. Most of the Huns are working for him. Now he has taken Hetao. The area he occupies is already larger than the entire Yan Kingdom. Even bigger. And his hands have already reached the Dai Commandery of Zhao State. Gao Yuan's general infantry commanded 6,000 cavalry in Dai Commandery to assist the Dai Commandery soldiers to resist the attack of Zhao Jun's elite. Now the war has continued months."
After listening to Meng Tian, Ji thoughtfully said: "So, this Gao Yuan is basically facing enemies from three sides. The people of Yan regard him as rebellious. Donghu is not going to die, but he is still "interrupting" Handling Zhao's internal affairs, how could the people of Zhao give up and give up? Is this what a wise man did? If the three parties work together, how can he hold on?"
King Wulie of Qin laughed loudly, "Meng Tian's words are in the middle, and this is exactly what Mr. Li and I have always been confused about. From our point of view, Gao Yuan is now 'interfering' in Zhao's country. Politics is an unwise act, after a long time of hard thinking, Li Shi and I came to an unbelievable conclusion."
"I don't know what the king saw?"
"Gao Yuan will launch a final attack on Yan State in a very short time."
"Impossible!" Li Xin said in amazement, "He has no soldiers. Most of his troops are confined to the Hetao. Liaoxi and Hejian are just empty shelves. In the great battle, the 100,000 troops were completely lost, but over the past few years, the Yan State has trained another 50,000 to 60,000 soldiers and horses. With the addition of soldiers from various counties, 100,000 troops can still be gathered. "
"I don't know!" King Qin Wulie said frankly: "But looking at Gao Yuan, this person is not stupid. His advisor, Jiang Jiaquan, is Junior Li, and he is even more extraordinary. You think they will make mistakes Are you crazy?"
Li Xin shook his head, he naturally did not believe this conclusion.
"According to the information obtained by the Black Ice Terrace, Ji Ling of Yan Kingdom is already preparing to attack Gaoyuan. Judging from the movement of their materials and luggage transportation, the focus of their attack should be Anlu in Yuyang. They first I want to cut off Gaoyuan's mineral resources."
"Since we know it, Gaoyuan must know it too." Li Xin shook his head and said, "After all, I'm still not confident, and I'm a little bit stingy."
King Qin Wulie smiled and said, "Li Xin, if it were you, what would you do?"
"Looking at Ji Ling's meaning, I'm afraid this attack is more of a temptation than a determination to fight the opponent to the death. It seems that they are still counting on something. If they hold this mentality, I'm afraid they will There is no doubt that this battle will be defeated. Since we want to fight, we must naturally gather the strength of the whole country and fight for it. If it is me, since I am determined to tear the last bit of shame with Gao Yuan, I will naturally call all soldiers and horses. Go straight to the west of Liaoning, and then attack Jishicheng." Li Dao said.
King Qin Wulie laughed loudly, "Stingy! You use this word well, whether it is Ji Ling or Tanfeng Zhou'yu, although they are outstanding people of a generation, after all, the structure is a little smaller. They are testing, they are also counting on someone else, wait, tell me."
Zhong Li nodded, "Donghu's special envoy just left Jicheng a month ago. Although we can't find out what they agreed on, it is conceivable that they must form an alliance to deal with Gao Yuan."
"Both the two families want to destroy Gao Yuan, but each has their own plans. They are afraid that their strength will be too much lost in this battle, which will make the other party cheaper. How can they win if they are so first-handed? Gao Yuan is exactly as Mr. Li and I thought, if you go straight to the point, the country of Yan will be in danger."
"Your Majesty's words are reasonable, but I really can't figure out where the soldiers and horses of this person come from? Chong will also be restrained by Langya Hu Yanchao, so could it be that Gao Yuan will mobilize He Lanxiong's troops?"
"Because I can't think of anything, I'm really looking forward to it." King Qin Wulie said with a smile, "No matter what Gao Yuan does, I can be sure that if he doesn't move, it will definitely shake the world, so this is also our opportunity. !”
"Your Majesty is going to attack Wei Guo?" Meng Tian was very moved.
"That's right, let's attack Wei. If Gao Yuan really launches a war against Yan this year, the world will be in chaos. Zhao people can't care about Wei. If Gao Yuan takes Yan, then What Gao Yuan did in Dai County, I am afraid that the Zhao people will have to worry about themselves in the future, so their forces will inevitably move towards Yuyang, and Wei Guo will lose its support."
"Who does Your Majesty prefer to lead this offensive?" Li Xin's eyes sparkled.
"Why, is General Li interested?" King Qin Wulie said with a smile.
Li Xin shook his head, "I'm going to fight Jing Rufeng at Hangu Pass. This person is well aware of our Qin soldiers' inside information and fighting style. I really don't feel at ease if I change it to someone else."
'Meng' Tian said excitedly: "Your Majesty, I would like to go. Our Great Qin has just signed an alliance with the Chu people. With the character of King Huai of Chu, he will never come to provoke us. I am willing to go to South Korea." .”
In the war of destroying the country, which general is unwilling to be this commander?
"You can't go." King Wulie of Qin shook his head and said: "Although King Huai of Chu is a little stupid, there are also a lot of talents in Chu, and the national strength of Chu is not inferior to that of Zhao. If they suddenly turn their faces, you are not here Where is it, how can we resist it, not afraid of ten thousand, just in case, we can't take this risk!"
"Your Majesty is going to reactivate General Wang Xiaowang?" Li Xin asked.
"Wang Xiao lost his teacher and humiliated the country, and he was defeated by Jing Rufeng, and the whole country was angry. If he is used at this time, wouldn't it be a dirty trick?" King Qin Wulie still shook his head." I am going to use Lu Chao As a general, he will fully command the battle to destroy Wei."
"What?" Li Xin and Meng Tian all opened their mouths in surprise, "Lu Chao?"
"Your Majesty, please think again. Although Lu Chao is talented, he is too young and has never led an army. To destroy the Wei State, at least one hundred thousand troops must be used. It's too risky to 'entrust' the command of a large-scale corps to someone who has no military experience. We just lost the Hangu Pass two years ago. If we lose again, the country will inevitably be shaken. "
King Qin Wulie smiled, "Li Xin, when you first commanded a battle, I remember that you had no experience. You were so aggressive back then, why are you so conservative now?"
"Your Majesty, I only led more than ten thousand troops at that time, and it was just a partial teacher." Li Xin argued.
"Lu Chao's ability in South Korea gives me reason to believe him, and this time to attack Wei, our Qin people will only send 10,000 cavalry, led by Yingying, and the rest of the troops are from Han Di." King Wulie of Qin looked at Li Xin, "Li Xin and Lu Chao have not only let our Great Qin completely control Han Di in a few years, but also cultivated an army of 50,000 people. You say, Is there any reason for me not to believe him? Although he is a scholar, who said that a scholar cannot command a large army to fight? I am not asking him to go to the front line!" q
