The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire Chapter 340: Didn’t have time to take it.
In the west of Zhao State, the border with Qin State. An elite army of Qin with a number of 300,000 was quietly crossing the natural dangers of the Yellow River, and once again stepped into the Taiyuan area of Zhao Kingdom.
This great army was so powerful that it quickly broke through Taiyuan County, where only 50,000 troops were left behind.
These 50,000 people are already half of the army left behind by the entire Zhao State. After the loss, the entire Zhao State will be empty, allowing Qin State to wreak havoc.
Early July.
After Qin took over Taiyuan County, apart from leaving some people behind, the rest quickly divided into two steps, going north to Yanmen County and south to Shangdang County.
Unsurprisingly, wherever Qin Jun went. All the cities were either surrendered or slaughtered by the Qin army after the city was broken. No city can stop the Qin army's footsteps.
The land of three counties to the east of Zhao State, originally used as a barrier to resist Qin State, was lost and became the bridgehead for Qin State's eastward invasion of Zhao State.
And Qin, in order to retaliate against the people of the three prefectures before, in the previous battles between the coalition forces and Qin, they turned to the state of Zhao one after another.
The people of the Kingdom of Zhao in these three counties will be massacred, all those who have surrendered before. Beating and scolding at every turn, a little resistance is slaughter, and constantly squeezing all the potential in it, and constantly insulting the people in the county.
The people's grievances in the three counties are boiling and it is difficult to contain them.
However, Qin doesn't care much about these.
After the previous war, Qin State and everyone understood a truth, that is, only Lao Qin is worthy of trust.
As for the survivors of the Six Nations in the counties and counties recovered by the Six Eastern Countries, they are all unfamiliar white-eyed wolves, not worthy of investment and comfort. They are the most suitable use to be squeezed as some coolie slaves.
At the same time, in the territory of Qi, the Zhao army at this time, after paying 50,000 casualties, finally broke through the capital of Qi and defended the empty Langya City.
The monarch of Qi and the ministers and nobles in the city fled east, led more than 10,000 remnants, fled to Jimo City in Jiaodong County, and used it as the capital of the country, re-calling the people in Qi to gather under his command and gather The force continued to resist Zhao Jun's aggression.
And Zhao Jun, who had just breached Langya City and was too happy to be happy, suddenly received news from his rear that Qin State had attacked Zhao State and had already attacked nearly half of the territory.
Zhao Jun, who had just enjoyed the fruits of victory, had to withdraw his troops and return to the country before he had time to enjoy and digest them, and quickly supported the country.
So, under the surprise and shock of the whole country of Qi, Zhao Jun obediently vomited out the two counties he had swallowed before, and left with the remaining 120,000 remnants.
Qi State regained the land of the two counties without a single soldier.
It's just that after this ravages, the population of Qi is even sparser, with only about 900,000 left. The number of soldiers and horses is only 150,000, of which the elite is about 100,000. Nearly half of his strength was lost, and his vitality was severely injured.
When Qin completely regained the three counties, he drew a hundred thousand troops from the rear of the country to support the front line, and used these ordinary soldiers to guard the three counties captured from Zhao.
So let’s make a move and use those 300,000 elites as the main force to attack the remaining territory of the Zhao Kingdom.
After the buffer of the land of the three counties, the State of Qin captured them, even if it was just a rush, it would take a lot of time.
It was this period of time that was exchanged for territory, which brought precious life time for the State of Zhao.
The 120,000 remnants who came from the rear finally returned to China. Then they brought together some soldiers and horses drawn from the country to form an army of 150,000 and gathered in the Taihang Mountains.
In the Taihang Mountains, rely on a series of majestic passes and some majestic cities as a support to resist the 300,000 troops of the Qin State.
When Qin Jun and Zhao Jun each completed their own momentum, an earth-shattering battle began.
At the end of July.
In the area of Taihang Mountain in Zhao State, a war surrounding Hebei's hegemony broke out under the condition that Qin State was the dominant state.
The country of Zhao, who had lost the land of the three counties and lost about half of its strength, faced Qin’s aggressive offensive and could hardly support it. The direction of fate is really elusive, so Zhao Guo can't see hope.
However, it was when Qin State was excited, thinking that he was about to destroy Zhao State and complete the great cause of destroying a country.
In the rear of Qin State, the newly established Liang State was ignored by Qin State, ignored by the people of the world, and had almost no influence on the whole world.
It showed its fangs outrageously.
The army of 30,000 elite Liang Kingdoms, under the personal command of the two nations' lord Liu Bang, used the general Fan Kuai Zhou Bo as the vanguard and sharp edge to break through the frontier of the Qin Kingdom, Longxi in one fell swoop, and captured most of Longxi County in more than ten days.
Qin Guoguan was frightened, and Qin Guochao was furious.
Especially Qin Wang Yingzheng, he just once again saw the hope of unifying the world and destroying the six nations. When he was happy, the humble beam jumping clown from the back dared to stroke his tiger's whiskers, feeling extremely angry.
"Although I am now weak in the State of Qin, it is far from the original grand occasion. But it is not like you, a little clown, and a small country that can come to provoke!" This is what Qin Wang Yingzheng thought about the invasion of Liang State. idea.
So Qin Wang Yingzheng directly sent 30,000 of the 50,000 defenders in Xianyang to the front line of Longxi~IndoMTL.com~ At this time, there are more than 20,000 defenders in Longxi, and they will be enough with these 30,000 supporters. There are fifty thousand people.
With the strength of the Qin army and the courage of the Qin people, it is more than enough to deal with the army of the 30,000 Liang country.
However, just when these 30,000 reinforcements arrived in Longxi County, they were preparing to meet with the defenders of Longxi County to launch an attack on the invading army of Liang Kingdom.
In Shang County in the north of Qin State, a bad news suddenly came.
In this small place in the cloud, the five small nations formed a coalition army, and a total of 20,000 elite troops went south, flagrantly launching an aggression against Qin State Shangjun.
Where did the defenders of Shangjun think of such small small countries in one or two counties, they would dare to invade Qin's territory. Unprepared, he was attacked by most of Shangjun's territory by this mere 20,000 enemy troops.
Fushi City, the prefecture of Shang County, was surrounded by 20,000 enemy troops at this moment, and there were only 10,000 defenders in the city. When Shangjun is in danger, it may be overturned at any time.
So the county guard star night in Shang County sent a messenger for help, asking for Xianyang's support.
However, one after another was affected by emergencies, leaving the real foundation of Qin State, the defense force of Neishi County where Xianyang is located, constantly emptied. The external crisis has not disappeared, but has continuously put Xianyang in danger.
Such a series of events made Yingzheng smell the conspiracy. Therefore, he did not agree to Shangjun's request for help, but instead let the county guard of Shangjun stick to the county city.
After all, the prefecture of Shangjun Fushicheng is a big city, and it has always been an important town for the Qin State to resist the invasion of the northern barbarians.
Under the garrison of 10,000 garrisons, the coalition forces in the cloud with only 20,000 troops want to break it, it is really not an easy task. If there is no miracle, don't even think about it.
So with ten thousand defenders, it is enough to defend against the coalition in the cloud.
Wang Yingzheng Qin is waiting for the source of the conspiracy.
