Chapter 86 Handan City Breaks the World and Shocks.
When Handan City was destroyed, Zhao Shu did not order his scouts to intercept the news, so the news spread like wildfire and quickly spread to the surrounding areas.
Compared with the news from other countries, Da Qin was undoubtedly the first to get the news. When Zhao Shu attacked Handan City, Yang Duanhe sent the news out.
It's just that Xianyang is too far away from Handan, so even if the news is sent out at the earliest, it is still impossible to get it at the first time.
Regarding this point, Yang Duanhe was still a little unwilling. After all, the Qin Wangzheng should know about the feat of the Great Qin warriors conquering Handan immediately.
As Qin Wangzheng's confidant, Yang Duanhe naturally knew about Qin Wangzheng's affairs, and even the entire Qin Dynasty knew about Qin Wangzheng's miserable childhood.
It is precisely because of this that everyone in the Qin Dynasty and the public has great hatred for Zhao.
Their king once humiliated the Zhao Kingdom Handan. This was not only a shame for the elites of Great Qin, but also a shame for the entire Great Qin.
This was also the time when the battle to destroy Zhao was mentioned. No civil servants or generals from the government and the public were willing to speak out to refute it, but the whole country asked for the war.
They want revenge.
They want to wash away the shame of their king.
Only by destroying the Zhao State and destroying its ancestral temple can the shame that the Zhao State inflicted on their king be washed away.
........
Jingxingguan.
At this time, a war had just ended in Jingxing Pass. The flames of war and smoke filled the entire Jingxing Mountains, and the wails of wounded soldiers continued to be heard.
The military doctors and rescue soldiers are constantly running around. Even the elite soldiers of Great Qin, who are known as elites, look exhausted at this moment.
From the moment they entered Zhao territory, the war never stopped and continued.
Qin army shogunate.
"General, Li Mu led his army to attack several times, but was intercepted by our army. Now the two sides have a truce, and the scouts are still dispatched."
Hearing this, Wang Jian nodded, and then turned to Sima, the Chinese army, and said, "What are the casualties of our army during this period?"
"General, our army's casualties are not large and within a controllable range. In comparison, Zhao's army suffered greater casualties."
"The Zhao army is composed of Zhao Bianqi. On a battlefield like Jingxingguan, even Li Mu as the commander will have difficulty giving full play to their strengths."
"Let the military doctors treat the wounded soldiers, and the legal officials will make statistics and verify the battle achievements."
"promise."
Nodding in agreement, Sima Zhongjun was about to turn around and leave when he heard Wang Jian's voice coming again.
"Is there any news from Handan?"
Compared to the battle at Jingxing Pass, Wang Jian was more concerned about the war in Handan at this time. He and Li Mu had been at odds with each other for so long that it was difficult for them to defeat each other in a short period of time.
Now the only place where the battle to destroy Zhao is broken is Handan.
At the beginning, according to Wang Jian's plan, Li Mu and Lian Po would die in the civil strife of Zhao State. To be precise, they would die in the hands of Guo Kai.
However, since the emergence of Zhao Shu, Wu'an quickly fell, and Yang Duanhe led the southward march to Handan, which caused an accident in his deployment.
His deployment only demonstrated half of his strength. Handan guard Lian Po was captured by Guo Kai, but Li Mu was still the leader of the 200,000 Zhao army.
In desperation, Wang Jian had no choice but to abandon his previous deployment and fully cooperate with Handan's offensive.
The dominance of the war has always been on his side since Wu'an was defeated by Yang Duanhe, especially when Xindu was defeated and Yang Duanhe cut off the Zhao State in the middle, which made it a great success.
"General, no news has been received yet, either from the Black Ice Platform or from the messengers, or even from the scouts."
Wang Jian's eyes fell on the map, he was silent for a long time, and said: "Let the scouts pay more attention, it has been five days, and no matter what the outcome of the Battle of Handan, there should be news."
"Without Lian Po, Handan cannot hold on for long."
"promise."
The Sima of the Central Army turned and left. He was extremely busy. Military orders were issued one after another from the shogunate, and he needed to coordinate them.
Although they didn't seem to have much success, they were in a state of war from the moment the army arrived at Jingxing Pass.
The Qin and Zhao armies clashed no less than twenty times near Jingxing Pass, including major battles, small battles, night attacks, and breakthroughs.
It can be said that the severity of the situation on the battlefield at Jingxingguan and the cruelty of the war were no less than those of Yang Duanhe and others.
Two hours passed, the sun set over the western mountains, and it soon became dark. At this time, a fast horse rushed into the camp.
Because the soldiers held the tokens, no one stopped them along the way.
"General, the special envoy from Handan has arrived." Sima of the Chinese Army felt relieved when he saw that the special envoy was only covered in dust and had no injuries.
"Bring it in."
Wang Jian's expression also became solemn. No one knew the outcome of the Handan battle until the news was confirmed.
After all, it is not that this world has never seen a war in which a small number of people can defeat a large number. What's more, Lian Po is still alive and Handan is a fortified city, so any accident is possible.
"promise."
The special envoy came in together with Sima of the Chinese army, and said to Wang Jian: "The special envoy from Handan, Duan Nan, has been ordered by General Yang Duan to report to the general."
Duan Nan took out the silk book and handed it to Wang Jian, saying: "General, we have a great victory. Handan has been captured by our army. When the last general came, the army was attacking the Zhao palace."
Holding the silk book in his hand, Wang Jian breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it was a big victory.
"Sima of the Central Army, take Duan south to rest and let the Huotou Army prepare meals."
"promise."
After the two people left, Wang Jian opened the silk book, then compared it with the cipher text in his memory, and then translated it one by one.
"Young man Tianzong, our great Qin has another young military general born out of the blue. What a joy to congratulate——!"
After speaking, Wang Jian lit the silk book and the translated text on the torch and watched them burn with his own eyes.
Then he walked out of the shogunate, stood on the cloud chariot, looked at the Zhao Jun banner in the distance, and said with a cold tone.
"Li Mu, your end is coming."
At this moment, Wang Jian's heart was filled with complicated emotions, or perhaps the entire Da Qin warriors, or even the entire Da Qin, were feeling complicated.
Qin and Zhao had a feud.
The most important thing is that their king was humiliated by Handan in the past. This is the biggest unwillingness of the entire Qin warriors.
Now, under the command of Zhao Shu, the warriors of the Qin Dynasty have broken through Handan and destroyed the Zhao Guozong Temple and Sheji. This is tantamount to venting a bad breath on behalf of the warriors of the Qin Dynasty, for the Qin court and the people, and for the government of the Qin Dynasty.
In the Qin Dynasty, both the elites and civil servants of the Qin Dynasty regarded the Qin king's government as their belief.
At this time, Wang Jian could imagine his joy when the news spread to the army, to Da Qin, and to the ears of Qin Wangzheng.
The feat of the great Qin warriors conquering Handan will make Zhao Shu the hero of the great Qin warriors and the Qin people.
However, Wang Jian still suppressed the idea of spreading the news to the army. At this moment, the morale of the Great Qin warriors was good and there was no need to deliberately stimulate them.
The most important thing is that Wang Jian knows that the news he got is probably first-hand news, and even the King of Qin has not yet heard about it.
Before Zhao Shu led his army to the north, this news could only stop with him.
