The Qin army, which came south from Dai, set up camp here.
Some Qin soldiers sighed: "This battle to destroy the country is too fast. We have only been in Dai for a few months, and it is over now?"
The other person raised his head and looked proud: "Of course, you don't even look at who the general is commanding us. This is General Zhao! Fight with General Zhao, win every battle, and be promoted to a higher rank for meritorious service."
"I don't know when the king will start to attack Qi. I don't know if Nai Gong will have a chance to go to the battlefield and be promoted. This time he will be promoted to Shangzao, which is still one level away from letting my son enter the school. If so,
It would be great if we could capture Qi by the way."
There are also Qin soldiers who are still interested in the war and full of desire to be promoted.
"What the heck, Qi is so big, how can we take it down by the way? Didn't you see that we all left Daidi and returned to Hengshan? I see, after the rewards are over, we will disperse and go home. My family is on top
Dang, if you walk faster, you can still go back and catch the autumn harvest."
Some people are also thinking about the autumn harvest at home.
In the Qin camp, all the soldiers looked relaxed.
In their opinion, by destroying Dai Country this time, their mission will be completed.
Compared to the relaxed mentality of the soldiers after the war.
In the commander's camp, General Zhao Tuo still had a solemn expression and was making new strategic arrangements with his generals.
"General Yang Yuan is a veteran general. He can lead 10,000 people to garrison Dai Di, so there is no problem."
"The army is temporarily stationed in Dongyuan, so we need to send an envoy back to Xianyang and wait for the king's edict to arrive before we can take the next step, so as to calm the soldiers' minds."
"During this period, the soldiers can relax, give out titles and financial rewards, relax control, and allow children to enter the city to go to the maid's palace, the market, and go shopping and have fun."
"In addition, another piece of news should be released to the outside world, saying that after the Qin Dynasty is destroyed, we have plans to go north to Yan, expel the Hu people, and conquer Liaodong."
Hearing this, the counselor Li ate his palm and smiled: "This is a wonderful move of the general. It can not only rest the soldiers, but also use the possibility of leading the army north again to conquer Liaodong as an excuse to let the Qi people put down the general's troops stationed at Hengshan."
Be vigilant.”
Zhao Tuo shook his head and said: "This is the wisdom of the king, not my strategy."
At first, the King of Qin wanted to let him conquer Liaodong after conquering Dai, but Zhao Tuo declined on the excuse that Liaodong was remote and difficult to destroy, and recommended Li Xin as a general.
At the same time, it is recommended to focus on Qi State, followed by Liaodong State.
This strategically minded king also decided to use the Liaodong incident to make a fuss after convening all the important ministers for discussion.
Let Zhao Tuo lead the army to attack Dai first, while the Qin State builds up its national strength. After the autumn harvest, when the grain warehouses are full and everyone is full of energy, they can then send out a large number of troops to conquer Qi State.
At that time, we could use the expedition to Liaodong as an excuse to transfer grain and fodder and mobilize troops in an open and honest manner. After we stationed troops at the border and deployed the troops in place, we could openly declare war on Qi.
In this way, the Qi people can be caught off guard, reduce the casualties of the Qin army, and unify the world more smoothly.
Of course, it is also true that the Qin State attacked Liaodong. At the same time as it attacked Qi, the Qin State sent Li Xin as a general to go north to Yan and conquer Liaodong, and he did what he said.
"Hengshan is only separated from Qidi by Julu County. Since I am stationing troops here, I should also say hello to my friends in Qidi. I should write a letter to express my regards to the Great Sima."
…
Just when Zhao Tuo led his army south, stationed troops in Dongyuan City, Hengshan County, and sent envoys to Xianyang to report the war.
The news that the Qin army destroyed Dai, captured King Xi of Yan, and defeated the Huns was also spread around through the words of merchants from various places and the fast horse letters.
In the land of Yan, there is no end city.
In a local mansion owned by a wealthy Yan people, a handsome man in dark clothes was playing the piano in the pavilion.
The sound of the piano is sad and melancholy, as if it is mixed with the emotions of the person playing the piano.
Lament, desolation, and sometimes anger that makes the sound of the piano sharp.
It was already autumn, the flowers and leaves all around were withered, and the branches and trees were turning yellow. It was originally a desolate place, but now with the angry sound of the piano, it felt even more solemn.
A muscular man strode over.
Before anyone arrives, the sound comes first.
"Zifang, as you expected, the Qin general Zhao Tuo stationed his troops at Hengshan Mountain after moving south from Daidi, and stopped moving forward."
The sound of the piano suddenly stopped.
Zhang Liang put his fingers on the strings of the piano, looked forward calmly, and sighed quietly: "The Qin army is about to go south, and Qi is about to perish."
Gongsun Xin's expression paused and he said: "You are saying that Zhao Tuo will lead his army to destroy Qi, but I heard that the Qin army is likely to go north to recover Liaodong, which was occupied by the Hu people."
Zhang Liang smiled and did not get entangled in this matter. Instead, he asked: "Tian Chong was sent to the Qin State as a great Sima before. In the Qin Palace, he competed with the generals of the Qin State in their military skills and won consecutive victories.
Have you ever heard of it?"
Gongsun Xin nodded and said: "It is said that Tian Chong defeated the Qin generals Wang Ben and Meng Wu in succession, and even Zhao Tuo was defeated by him. He bowed to him on the spot, which can be said to avenge his previous humiliation."
"So it is said everywhere that Tian Chong is not weaker than the generals of the Qin army in terms of military warfare. The reason why the Qi army was defeated in Zhencheng was because of Zhao Tuo's sneak attack. What do you mean, Zifang, among them is the Qin army?"
People use deception?"
Zhang Liang said calmly: "Since that time, the Qin State has been planning to destroy Qi. The Qin people praised Tian Chong, who only knew how to deduce the art of war, and made his position as chief commander more and more stable. When the Qin State officially conquered Qi,
When Qi joins forces, this proud Sima will surely suffer a big loss."
"As for what you just said about Qin's desire to regain Liaodong. Haha, Liaodong is a remote place, and the enemies are all barbarians. Why does Qin need to send a large army to attack? It can be done by sending a good general to lead an elite army to the north. So the matter of regaining Liaodong
It’s just a pretense to confuse Qi people.”
"This time Zhao Tuo stationed his troops in Dongyuan with the intention of destroying Qi. After Qin took advantage of the attack on Liaodong and gathered its troops, he could attack Qi in one fell swoop. And Zhao Tuo could sneak attack Tian Chong in Zhencheng.
Once, how did you know that he wouldn't attack again this time?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Gongsun Xin felt chills all over after hearing this. He did not expect the Qin people to be so cunning. He whispered: "Since Zifang has seen that the Qin army is about to destroy Qi,
Regarding the matter, should we send someone to warn Qi State so that they can be on guard."
"Remind Qi Guo? Hehe...hehe..."
Zhang Liang smiled very coldly.
During the Battle of Zhencheng, Gongsun Xin and Chen Yu went to Dongjun to carry out assassinations, and then hid in Dongjun from the Qin people. They did not experience personally what happened to the people of the Four Kingdoms in Qi.
In the State of Qi, King Jian of Qi and Prime Minister Tianjia were deceived by the conditions offered by the envoys of the State of Qin, and blamed the defeat of Zhencheng on the people of the four countries. They fell out on the spot and pursued and captured them.
Zhang Liang, Lord Hengyang and a group of righteous men from the Four Kingdoms fled to Daidi in a hurry.
As a result, they were defeated by the Tian clan in Dicheng on the way, and Zhang Liang escaped with his life. However, Han Cheng, Lord of Hengyang, fell into the hands of the Qi people and was escorted to the Qin State where he was tortured and died.
When I think of my closest comrade against the Qin Dynasty, he was betrayed by the Qi people and ended up being torn apart by a car.
Zhang Liang's heart was filled with hatred for Qi Guo.
"The people of Qi have no faith. Even if the country is destroyed, they deserve it. Why should we remind them?"
"The people of Qi used the orders of us, the righteous men of the four countries, to befriend Qin, and pinned their hopes of survival on the kindness of the Qin people. Do you think they will believe it if we remind them?"
"If the five kingdoms are all destroyed, what's the use of keeping Qi? It's better to perish. Only if Qi is destroyed, those arrogant, treacherous Qi people will stand with us and jointly fight against the Qin people.
Revenge and seek restoration of the country.”
Gongsun Xin was stunned for a moment by Zhang Liang's words.
He thought for a while, nodded and said: "What Zifang said makes sense, and Zhao Tuo is so powerful. This time he not only destroyed Dai, captured Zhao Jia and Yan Xi, but also defeated the Xiongnu. I think Qi will be fine
If you are prepared, you will definitely not be an opponent. Qi will be destroyed this time."
"Zhao Tuo..."
Zhang Liang's eyes flashed with fear.
"Qin has a veteran general like Wang Jian to control the country, famous generals like Wang Ben and Meng Wu to lead the army, and a successor of peerless generals like Zhao Tuo. Even if the six countries join forces, they will never be the opponent of the Qin army on the battlefield.
.So we should no longer think about using the army to fight against the Qin army, that is a dead end."
"If you want to restore the country, you can only bring chaos to Qin. If you want to bring chaos to a country, there is no better way than the sudden death of the monarch."
"Let's go. The Yan people here say that there are often brave warriors among Dongyi, who are strong and good at fighting. Let's go and have a look, maybe we can find a suitable person."
Speaking of this, a figure flashed in Zhang Liang's mind.
He whispered: "Although Chen Yu is dead, I, Zhang Liang, will continue his assassination skills."
