Chapter 33 I was going to tell the Zhao Kingdom that the Qin army is not invincible!
"General, I think we should be careful next time!" Zhao Shu looked solemnly and expressed his advice to Li Ji.
Hearing this, Li Ji looked gloomy and turned to Zhao Shu: "How do you say this?"
"General, as you said, we are facing Xindu. Although the Zhao army in Xindu is also a rabble."
"But we are similar."
Zhao spoke quickly: "However, Yan Ju is a veteran of the Zhao Kingdom, and he has outstanding abilities. He will definitely realize that they alone cannot defend the capital."
"Once Xindu is lost, it will mean that Handan and Jingxing Pass will completely lose contact. From then on, the Zhao Kingdom's hinterland army and Zhao's border army will fight independently."
"At this time, if Yan Ju wants to fight the general, the only way is to send elites to kill our vanguard army and weaken our spirit."
"At the same time, boost the morale of the Zhao army in Xindu. Only in this way will Yan Ju be able to fight."
The long sword in Zhao Shu's hand fell on the scrawled map drawn by Li Ji: "Now we are less than two hundred miles away from Xindu. In this process, hunting is most likely to occur."
After hearing Zhao Shu's analysis, Li Ji also nodded: "The Five Hundred Chief Technique is right. I have the same idea as this general. Next, we will strengthen the connection with the scout camp."
"At the same time, order the soldiers to be vigilant and slow down the marching speed, which is twice as fast as the main army."
"promise."
The vanguard army consisted of three thousand cavalry. They did not lead the fire-headed troops, and they did not even bring cooking tools. They only brought dry food and clean water.
After resting for a night, the army continued to set off. They were the vanguard army and they had to do what the vanguard army should do.
No matter how dangerous it is, no matter how dangerous it is, no matter how dangerous it is, you still have to move forward.
…
The shogunate of the Qin army.
"General, the scouts have reported that the vanguard army has passed one hundred and fifty miles and is ninety miles away from our army."
The Sima of the Chinese army looked solemn and turned towards Yang Duanhe: "According to the news, the three thousand cavalry have tended to become elites. It is no longer a matter of them riding horses and shooting bows."
"The progress is rapid, but this is far from enough." Yang Duanhe looked solemn. He knew in his heart that once this cavalry failed to become an elite, it would not be able to be used together with other cavalry.
After pondering for a moment, Yang Duanhe turned to Sima of the Chinese army: "Is there any news coming from the direction of Xindu and Handan?"
"There has been no news from the direction of Handan, but from the direction of Xindu, Yan Ju sent his cavalry out of Xindu."
"How many people are they?" Yang Duanhe stared at Sima, the middle army. He knew very well that the vanguard army had not yet formed combat strength.
Once they meet the elites under Yan Ju's command, they will definitely lose.
"General, according to the news sent by Heibingtai, about five thousand troops were sent to Xindu and disappeared into the vast mountains under the leadership of Sima Liu Ti."
Hearing this, Yang Duanhe's face changed slightly, and he turned to Sima, the central army, and said: "Immediately send word to General Xin Sheng, the commander of the cavalry, to enter the shogunate!"
"promise."
With a nod of agreement, Sima of the Chinese army turned and left. Yang Duanhe's expression in the shogunate suddenly turned ugly. He knew in his heart that Yan Ju's purpose was the vanguard army led by Li Ji.
"The era of defeating the spirit of our army and Yan Ju has passed. Now is the era of our great Qin warriors. We, our great Qin, will surely be invincible in the world!"
Yang Duanhe was extremely proud. He believed in his own abilities and even more in the combat power of the Great Qin warriors, but he never underestimated Yan Ju.
He knew in his heart that these famous generals who had dominated an era, even though they were old, still had some skills.
Lian Po is old, but he guards Handan City and prevents Li Xin and others from making any progress. This is the biggest proof.
While thinking, Xin Sheng came quickly and said to Yang Duanhe: "General."
After calming down his emotions, Yang Duanhe glanced at Xin Sheng and said in a solemn tone: "General Xin Sheng, the scouts just sent news that the vanguard army has advanced to one hundred and fifty miles away, ninety miles away from our army."
"However, in the direction of Xindu, Yan Ju's subordinate Sima Liu Ti led five thousand elite cavalry out of Xindu and disappeared into the vast mountains."
"This general suspects that the purpose of Liu Ti and Yan Ju is to lead the vanguard army led by Li Ji."
After hearing what Yang Duanhe said, Xin Sheng stared at the map in front of him and said for a while: "Ninety miles away, even if our cavalry attacks and marches wildly, we still can't catch up."
"Historically, the vanguard army was no more than two hundred miles away from the main army. Now it is only ninety miles away. Li Ji will definitely continue to advance."
"As a result, the possibility of them encountering Liu Ti is extremely high. Now, everything can only depend on them."
"Um."
Taking a deep look at Xin Sheng, Yang Duanhe breathed a sigh of relief. He meant the same thing, but Xin Sheng was the cavalry commander and he had to pay attention to the other party's opinions.
Compassion does not command troops!
In this vanguard army, Yang Duan and Sheshe, after all, only six to seven hundred soldiers among them were old cavalry soldiers, and the rest were newly added infantry and old Qin people transferred from the dead soldiers camp.
…
Xindu.
"Old General, according to the news from the scouts, the Qin army has been dispatched. At the same time, the 3,000 vanguard troops dispatched have already declined the letter and are less than 200 miles away."
Hearing the words of the Chinese Army Sima, Yan Ju's cloudy eyes burst out with fierce murderous intent: "Send orders to Liu Ti to destroy this Qin Army vanguard at all costs."
"I am going to tell everyone in Xindu, and even everyone in Zhao State, that the Qin army is not invincible!"
"promise."
Nodding in agreement, Sima of the Central Army turned and left. He knew in his heart that Yan Ju had made up his mind and now they had no choice.
Watching the Central Army Sima leave, all the murderous intent on Yan Ju's face dissipated. He knew extremely well that the letter he received now was simply an empty shell.
Wu'an City fell so quickly that he did not have time to prepare, nor did he allow Handan and Jingxing Pass to react, catching them off guard.
Today's Xindu needs food and grass but not food and grass, and wants elites but not elites...
But Yan Ju was not defeated by the difficulties. He knew in his heart that Xindu had become the most convenient passage between Jingxingguan and Handan, and he had to defend Xindu.
Otherwise, in this war, Zhao would not be at a disadvantage, but that the situation was over.
If we take the Julu line between Jingxingguan and Handan, the risk will undoubtedly be extremely high. The most important thing is that once the trust is lost, Handan will be in danger.
If the capital of the country falls and King Zhao is captured, will the State of Zhao still be the State of Zhao at that time?
"Wu Anjun, I will do my best, I hope you can withstand the pressure!" Yan Ju knew in his heart that Lian Po did not think much about it. The safety of the entire Zhao country now rests in the hands of Li Mu alone.
However, the relationship between Li Mu and Guo Kai was tense, and Yan Ju was somewhat worried. After all, at this time, only by working together could the Zhao State be able to resist the Qin army.
