Just a few years ago, the State of Qi and the State of Yan in the east of Liaodong fought a great battle that shocked the world——
At that time, the State of Qi took advantage of the civil strife in Yan and sent out troops brazenly, beating Yan's army to pieces. Even Jicheng, the capital of the State of Yan, was captured by the Qi army.
Now that the war has reached this level, it stands to reason that this is the time for Yan, a long-standing ancient vassal state, to be destroyed.
However, the Qi army was really undisciplined. Wherever it went, it violently conquered, burned, killed and looted the land of Yan, causing countless murders.
This aroused the desperate resistance of the people of Yan State.
As a result, the Qi army had to withdraw its troops... and the Yan state was restored.
If the Qi army can maintain good military discipline and adopt a gentle strategy towards these newly occupied lands... it will not arouse the Yan people's desperate resistance, and maybe they can safely annex the thousands of miles of Yan's land.
Having said that, although Qi State withdrew its troops, Yan State had been devastated by the Qi army.
When every Yan State person mentions Qi State, they will reveal their hatred to the core!
The so-called hatred breeds power - the newly enthroned King Yanzhao, Ji Shi, looked at the devastated Jicheng and wanted to cry without tears... He turned hatred into motivation, issued a call for talents, and left behind such an allusion as the 'Golden Platform'...
King Yan Zhao used his sincerity to win the loyalty of Guo Wei, Ju Xin, Zou Yan, Qu Yong, Le Yi, Su Dai and other talents.
After that, King Yan Zhao worked hard to govern, expand his army and prepare for war... Finally, in the near future, the craze of "Five Kingdoms Conquering Qi" was launched... The army of Yan State was determined to take revenge. Under the leadership of Le Yi, the Qi State was almost destroyed... …
If not for the unfortunate death of King Yan Zhao, the Qi State would have been annexed by the Yan State... Although the Qi State was not destroyed, it suffered heavy losses and has since fallen out of the ranks of the first-rate powers...
Of course, this is all for later.
At this moment, the Yan State is still dormant and trying its best to strengthen itself, and the battle of "Five Kingdoms Conquering Qi" has not yet broken out...
…
The Laizhou Navy only had more than a hundred ships, and it was really difficult to accommodate 120,000 Qi troops.
The Qi army had to temporarily give up the burden of large items such as chariots, flags, drums, and tents. The soldiers crowded into the cabin like sardine cans.
"Hey? Who doesn't have a good eye and steps on me!"
"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze, let me turn around..."
"Bleach! Who's fart smells so bad!"
The soldiers of the Qi army were cursing and complaining...
Ling Bao waved his hand, and the soldiers of the Laizhou Navy strode forward and closed the hatch...
Ling Bao looked at Tian Zhen, cupped his hands and said: "General, the soldiers can't bear to stay in the cabin for too long... we should set sail as soon as possible!"
Tian Zhen nodded and stood on the deck of the Laizhou Navy flagship, high-spirited: "Attack! Go straight to the Huai River!"
The Laizhou Navy responded in unison, and the heavy ship loaded with Qi soldiers turned its bow and left the shoal...
In two more hours (about four hours), 120,000 Qi's elite troops will descend from the sky! Suddenly appeared in the lower reaches of Huai River!
Ling Bao praised sincerely: "The general will admire his ingenious plan to win!"
"After arriving at the Huai River, the Chu State will definitely be caught off guard...the army marches west along the Huai River, and it can completely penetrate the capital of Ying!"
"If everything goes well, it is possible to conquer Yingdu!"
"After this battle, the general will definitely be granted the title of marquis!" Ling Bao said loudly.
Tian Zhen stroked his beard and laughed.
The admiration for Ling Bao seems to be very useful.
"Destroy Chu! Avenge Jiang Yu's thirty thousand soldiers!" Tian Zhen waved his hand.
On September 13, 120,000 Qi troops, led by Tian Zhen personally and with the help of the Laizhou Navy, suddenly landed on the lower reaches of the Huai River!
Directly threatening the hinterland of Chu State! The troops are directed towards the capital of Ying! The whole country of Chu was shocked!
…
Outside the city of Fuli fortress, the Chu army camped.
Scouts riding fast horses ran back and forth, sweat dripping from everyone's forehead.
The Chu soldiers could not help but feel anxious as they watched the scouts coming and going in a hurry.
"Have you heard? The main force of the Qi army bypassed [Langya] from the sea and landed on the lower reaches of the Huai River!"
"Is this happening? No wonder these scouts are so anxious!"
"I heard that more than 100,000 Qi troops came ashore!"
"What should we do? Can we get back in time?"
...The entire Chu army camp, with 200,000 soldiers of the Chu army, was in panic.
In the large tent of the Chinese army, all the generals gathered.
Mi Heng sat on the main seat and couldn't hide his panic: "Everyone must have heard about it... the incident happened suddenly, what should we do?"
All the generals looked at each other, no one dared to speak casually.
Tian Zhen's move was too cruel!
No wonder the Qi army withdrew its troops from Song's territory cleanly before.
It turned out that Tian Zhen was directly targeting the hinterland of Chu State!
No matter what, the Chu army must respond as soon as possible - if there is a slight delay, then the Qi army is likely to go west along the Huai River and reach Yingdu with a single blow.
Even if the Qi army was not interested in the capital of Ying, it would be enough to burn, kill and loot along the Huai River, which would be enough for the Chu state.
Both sides of the Huai River are the fertile hinterland of Chu State... If there is any loss, it will definitely be a serious injury.
Seeing the silence in the tent, Wu Bi shook his head and said bluntly: "Commander, the last general will not talk in circles..."
"Qi Jun's strange move really caught our army off guard!"
"Our Chu army has never been as powerful as the Qi army... Even if the 200,000-strong army rushes back in time to block the Qi army, it may not be able to defeat the 120,000 Qi army..."
"Besides, if 200,000 people want to return for reinforcements, it cannot be done in a short time... Cleaning up the camps, allocating food and grass, and stabilizing the morale of the army are all troublesome."
All the Chu generals in the tent nodded.
That's right.
That’s two hundred thousand people! This is not a small army of hundreds or thousands of people. It’s too difficult to move back quickly!
By the time the army rushes back, both sides of the Huai River may not have become what they looked like...
The atmosphere in the tent was heavy, and a sense of frustration and powerlessness was spreading rapidly.
Do you really want to admit defeat? Is there any room for redemption?
Qi Jun, so cunning!
Not willing to give in! Not willing to give in!
Suddenly, Huang Xie stood up and held his hands in his hands: "Everyone, I have a plan!"
The generals cheered up and looked at Huang Xie.
These days, they have gotten to know the young prodigy next to Mi Heng to some extent - this person is indeed a prodigy.
The generals looked at Huang Xie expectantly.
Mi Heng seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and hurriedly said: "Huang Xie, what can you do? Come quickly!"
"If you can stop the Qi army from continuing to advance westward and harm both sides of the Huai River, you will have done a great job!"
Huang Xie shook his head: "I am incompetent... The Qi army has landed, and the main force of our army cannot rush back. It is indeed unstoppable..."
The generals were stunned.
Blanch!
So what are you talking about here?
Could it be that you are having fun at home?
Huang Xie smiled slightly and looked hard!
"Although it can't stop the Qi army, Huang's strategy also works wonders!"
Huang Xie pointed at the map and said in a decisive voice: "Give up the reinforcements! Attack Qi's homeland!"
All the generals in the tent widened their eyes.
Hold the grass? Change of tactics?
