Listening to King Zhao's words, the generals of the Zhao army looked at each other -
The final outcome is not certain yet?
What does riding a horse mean?
Zhao Zhang, Lou Huan, Fei Yi and others all handed over their hands: "Please, Your Majesty, please help us clear up our doubts!"
Zhao Yong smiled coldly: "Although our Zhao country has gained nothing, Xiong Wuliang may not be able to get any benefits from the Yue country!"
"At the moment, our Zhao State has helped the Chu State to attract almost all the troops of Qin, Wei and Han... but in the end, the Chu State only dispatched 20,000 troops to attack the Yue State."
"This shows what?"
Before everyone could react, Zhao Yong asked and answered his own question: "Explain that what Xiong Wuliang said before is not all lies to me - the money and food of Chu State are indeed not good enough!"
"Otherwise, the Chu people would definitely raise an overwhelming army to march eastward. How could they go to war with only 20,000 soldiers?"
Zhao Yong paused and continued: "Since the Chu State lacks money and food, it will be unable to succeed - if it cannot capture Langya quickly, it will have to withdraw in embarrassment."
"Just think about it - the Yue King Si Jing is a sophisticated man with both ambition and strategy. The 30,000 Yue troops under his command are fierce soldiers who have survived hundreds of battles in more than ten years and have been tempered by iron and blood. Regardless of his fighting power, fighting spirit, or loyalty to Si Jing... they must not be underestimated!"
"Coupled with the fact that Langya has many mountains and forests and rugged and complex terrain, it is an easy-to-defend but difficult-to-attack place."
"I think back to the time when King Xuan of Qi was still here. Tian Bijiang used all the troops in the country to fight in turns, but he couldn't do anything to the small land of Langya."
"The Vietnamese army guerrillas in the mountains and forests, and they can cause great trouble to the Chu people."
"I have this judgment - although Xiong Wuliang is cunning and cunning, he may not be able to win quickly with only 20,000 soldiers!"
Listening to Zhao Yong's explanation, the eyes of all Zhao generals lit up.
It is also!
At the beginning, King Tian Pijiang of Qi used more than 100,000 troops and fought for more than half a year, but he could not defeat Langya. It was because of this old guy Si Jing that he dispersed his troops in the mountains and forests. With the help of his familiarity with the terrain, he moved layer by layer. Layer blocking.
The Qi army, which had a huge advantage, had already lost troops and generals, and its morale was low before they could reach [Langya] city.
As long as Si Jing is not a bad character and the story of the fight against Qi is repeated... Chu will never think of a quick victory!
Fei Yi clapped his hands happily: "In this way, although I, Zhao, can't get any benefits, Xiong Wuliang doesn't want to have any good fruits in the hands of the Yue people!"
Xiong Wuliang only had 20,000 people, and with insufficient money and food, it was impossible to advance steadily.
How does he fight?
Can he win?
If he could win, I would eat the pass in front of me on the spot!
Zhao Zhang beamed even more: "Very good! This despicable villain, Xiong Wuliang, deceived me, Zhao... He deserves this end!"
"Since he can't win quickly, he can only withdraw his troops in embarrassment!"
"The Chu State, which was determined to take revenge, was disgraced in front of the small country of Yue... When the news spreads, Xiong Wuliang will be laughed at by the world!"
"Moreover, it can also destroy this dog's reputation as 'invincible'!"
Zhao Yong smiled and nodded.
The faces of the other Zhao generals no longer looked heavy.
Xiong Wuliang, aren't you being naughty? Okay, okay, then we are waiting to see your jokes!
When you lose your troops and have to retreat in embarrassment... you will be finished if I don't criticize you in the international community!
Waaaaaaaaaah!
…
Zhao State ceased its activities and stopped launching fierce attacks on the passes in front of it... Although the Qin, Wei and Han coalition forces on the city wall were inexplicable, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Bai Qi gave the order: "Send scouts widely, don't let the Zhao people use any conspiracy!"
All the Qin generals took orders one after another.
The fighting in the past period and Zhao Jun's unique fighting style left a deep impression on all the soldiers of Qin, Wei and Han——
Different from the more classic routine of this era of "write a letter of challenge, make an appointment, and prepare for battle"-Zhao Jun's fighting style is extremely erratic.
Especially the Zhao army's cavalry, which frequently carried out outflanking assaults for dozens or even hundreds of miles, always caught the Qin, Wei, and Han armies who combined heavy chariots and infantry off guard, and at the same time caused Bai Qi's command and prediction to fail. Extremely difficult.
"However, Zhao Jun also has weaknesses." Bai Qi commented: "That is that their attack ability is not strong!"
"Throughout this series of battles, whenever the Zhao army attacked a city, they always relied on the superiority of cavalry - either to annihilate our army's effective forces in field battles, or to outflank and block food routes on a large scale, thus forcing the defenders to abandon the city."
"This pass in front of us is the first time Zhao Jun has launched a head-on siege - our army's military strength and combat power are not as good as Zhao's, but we can easily defend it!"
"From now on, if we fight against Zhao Jun again, we should make use of our strengths and avoid our weaknesses."
All the generals were sincerely convinced: "General Bai's words are very true."
Since presiding over the war against Zhao State, Bai Qi has rectified his name through a series of exquisite commands and many experiences of turning the tide.
The Qin government and the public no longer regard Bai Qi as the lucky minister he once was.
But a general who can truly command well!
Leading a weak army to resist the fierce attack of the elite Zhao army - looking at today's world, there are not many people who can do it!
Of course, Bai Qi proved his own strength. On the other hand, it also highlighted the fear of Qu Yanghou of Chu State who was able to defeat Bai Qi...
Throughout the Qin State, whenever Xiong Wuliang's name was mentioned, everyone's expression would change...
A few days later, the scouts finally brought news to Bai Qi - the reason why Zhao State stopped its troops and made a truce was because Chu State did not follow Zhao State's request to contain the rear of Qin, Wei and Han, but instead sent troops directly east to fight against Yue State. .
Marquis Quyang of Chu State led 20,000 troops and personally conquered Yue State! Want revenge!
"It's Mi Liang again!" When Xiong Wuliang's name was mentioned, Bai Qi always felt angry.
Although he is also very confident in his ability to use troops... However, the successive failures in front of Xiong Wuliang have almost caused Bai Qi to have a psychological shadow on the former...
Is it really impossible to defeat Qu Yanghou?
No! impossible!
Sooner or later I will defeat him! Revenge for Sima's mistake! Avenge the countless heroic spirits of Great Qin!
Prove to the world that I, Bai Qi, am the top general of this era!
"Hmph! Short-sighted!" Bai Qi sneered and taunted himself.
Our three kingdoms of Qin, Wei and Han are in a state of turmoil at the moment... If we really talk about Chu State's rhetoric of 'avenging the late king', our three kingdoms of Qin, Wei and Han, especially Qin State, are the direct murderers of King Zhaohuai of Chu.
At this juncture, if Xiong Wuliang raised those 20,000 elite troops to attack Qin, Qin would probably be destroyed.
But that little Nanman ran to the east!
Isn't this short-sighted? Let the Qin Dynasty survive and attack such a small country?
madness!
But soon, Bai Qi also reacted——
…
