"It's up to me to convince General Lecheng about this matter. General Mang will just wait for the good news." Li Si said.
"Thank you very much, sir." Mang Mao borrowed the donkey from the slope.
For a long time, the officers and soldiers of the Wei army were somewhat dissatisfied with him, and they often cursed him behind his back.
In the Battle of Huayang, 130,000 Wei troops were massacred. When their brothers and descendants grew up, they became the current Wei troops.
Seeing Mang Mao, who led the Wei army to a great defeat and led to the deaths of his father and brothers, how could anyone have a good look?
If Mang Mao died fighting, no one would say anything.
It happened that our relatives were killed by the Qin army, but you, the general, were released by the Qin people.
How could the Wei people be happy?
In addition, the commander-in-chief of the Zhao army was Le Cheng, whom many soldiers knew, and the deputy general Jia Yan also helped the Korean army train cavalry, and had good relations with many Korean soldiers.
Mang Mao even suspected that in a few days, the Zhao army would recruit soldiers from the Wei army and the Han army on the spot, and some soldiers would run over.
If something like this happened, he would be disgraced.
As a general, it's normal to lose a battle, but it's not normal to lead troops... and lose them with them.
At that time, even if King Wei didn't say anything, he would have no shame to live.
In addition, the unified management of food and grass for the three armies is also beneficial to the Wei State. At least from the perspective of Zhao's food, Wei's food and grass will not be looked down upon. In the future, most of the food and grass will definitely be taken care of by Zhao Jun, which will reduce the pressure on Wei.
Moreover, it is impossible for Zhao to cut off the food and grass of the Wei army and the Han army, so there is no need to worry about the safety of the food and grass.
Of course, the two armies can only follow Zhao Jun closely in the future, and they cannot run away whenever they want.
After convincing Mang Mao, Li Si came to the Korean army camp without much effort. After Bao Luan learned that Mang Mao had agreed, he nodded in agreement.
The next day, the Han and Wei military camps remained the same, with smoke blowing from cooking stoves, flags fluttering above the camp tents, and a group of soldiers patrolling from time to time.
However, the main force had already concealed its flag and followed the Zhao army towards Heluo.
During this period, the envoys sent by Zhou to Yan, Qi, and Chu also rushed back. The three countries expressed their desire to punish Qin and actively responded to King Zhou's call, but they did not send a single soldier.
Although the Duke of Western Zhou had expected it, he was still a little sad.
The armies of Han and Wei refused to leave until they reached Xingyang, and the three kingdoms of Yan, Qi, and Chu did not send troops. How could Zhao's 10,000-strong army be a match for the Qin army?
In addition, there is also bad news. King Ji Yan of Zhou has been ill since the Qin army surrounded the royal city.
Although the King of Zhou is just a symbol and does not play any role, it is not a good sign that the king is sick when he is facing a powerful enemy.
Moreover, King Ji of Zhou lived an extremely long life. He had to endure the deaths of several of his sons, and never established a prince again. If anything happened, the Kingdom of Zhou would fall into civil strife fighting for the throne.
A country that was once in turmoil will fall apart in an instant.
Thinking of this, the Duke of Western Zhou quickly walked towards the palace, intending to ask the King of Zhou about establishing a prince.
At this time, a sound of war drums resounding throughout the world came from outside the city - the Qin army launched another attack.
The Duke of Western Zhou stopped. If the Zhou State could hold on under the Qin army's strong attack, it would not be too late to establish a crown prince. If it could not hold on, the crown prince would just be one more poor man who would die for the country.
"How many days does it take for Zhao Jun to arrive at the royal city?" The Duke of Western Zhou sighed. The only one he could count on now was Zhao Jun.
"Your Majesty, the Zhao army is expected to arrive in two or three days," the captain of the guard said.
"How much food is left in the palace? I am going to reward the Zhao army." asked the Duke of Western Zhou.
If you want others to do things for you, don't be afraid of spending money. The Duke of Zhou still understands.
Moreover, facing this only reinforcement, if he is still reluctant to spend money, how can he attract the Korean and Wei armies behind him?
"If we work together, we can probably get 10,000 bolts of silk together." said the captain of the guard.
"One piece of silk for each person is enough. Then borrow some money from the rich people in the city and buy some wine.
, Zhao people like wine. "The Duke of Western Zhou nodded.
One person and one piece of silk is quite a lot. Under normal circumstances, aside from the gray income from burning, killing and looting, even if it is a great victory, the court will rarely reward so much. What's more, this time the battle was not fought, and the Duke of Western Zhou was considered a winner. original capital.
However, the Duke of Western Zhou Dynasty did not know that there were not only Zhao troops in the Zhao army, but also the Han and Wei armies hiding inside. When he saw that the army that appeared in front of him was not an army of 10,000, but an army of 30,000, he felt various emotions in his heart. Expression.
In addition to the relatively slow marching speed on the first day, the three Jin coalition forces marched forcefully all the way afterwards, and all the soldiers who mastered the battle formation took turns using the blast formation.
In just a few days, the army arrived at Luoshui without any stop. Le Cheng swept his horse forward, and the fiery red war cloud instantly covered the army and rolled towards the Qin army.
There is no need to rest or form a formation. At this time, you only need to take them by surprise, attack them unprepared, and crush the Qin army with the power of thunder.
"Zhao Jun is coming!" Wang Hao stood in front of the army and calmly looked at the Zhao Jun rushing over.
After the army surrounded the royal city, he sent out scouts widely to keep an eye on news of reinforcements.
How could the Qin State defeat the Zhao and Wei coalition forces in the Battle of Huayang, and how could the Qin State be defeated by the Zhao State in the battle with him? How could Wang Lu not know that he had long been wary of the Zhao Army using this trick again.
According to intelligence, Zhao's army only had about 10,000 people, which was why he dared to attack the royal city to attract Zhao's army.
The Qin army numbered a hundred thousand, enough to deal with the Zhou and Zhao armies at the same time.
But for some reason, Wang Hao always had an ominous premonition lingering in his heart as he looked at the charging Zhao Jun.
"The army that was ordered to attack the royal city retreated slowly. Ming Wan commanded an army of 10,000 to keep an eye on the royal city. As long as Zhou dares to send an army to meet the Zhao army, they must be wiped out. The others and I will deal with the Zhao army." Wang Lu ordered.
In the past hundred years, except for Zhao, Qin had never encountered an opponent in field battles, let alone the young men of Zhou who had just been recruited.
The defenders of the city can barely hold off the Qin army. If they dare to go out to fight in the field, one will die, and two will die.
"General, please give the order immediately to attack the entire army." Li Si said immediately.
The Qin army was still larger than the three Jin coalition forces. Except for the 10,000 Zhao elites commanded by Le Cheng, the three Jin coalition forces were no match for the Qin army in field battles.
The advantage of the Zhao army is that the Qin army does not know that they have 30,000 troops, so they can catch the Qin army by surprise and destroy as many Qin troops as possible.
"Okay. General Mangmao, General Baoluan, you will form a line on the left and right, and work with me to defeat the Qin Dynasty." Le Cheng said loudly, and at the same time activated his talent.
Zhao Jun's momentum began to rise continuously, and his aura gradually strengthened. After reaching the peak, he still did not stop, forcibly breaking through the existing limits.
A terrifying aura emanated from Zhao Jun, and the Korean and Wei troops on both sides subconsciously distanced themselves from Zhao Jun.
Immediately afterwards, Li Si swung the long sword forward and covered Zhao Jun with his talent.
"Huh? My talent seems to last longer." Le Cheng said in surprise.
His talent can enable soldiers to break through their own limits and achieve greater strength. The side effect is that if it lasts for a long time, it will weaken for a period of time, and if it lasts longer, it will overdraw vitality and affect life span.
Le Cheng just discovered that the talent that could only be used for about half an hour can now be used continuously for nearly an hour without any side effects.
Li Si smiled. His talent could integrate and optimize his own strength, which just blessed Le Cheng's time and weakened some of the side effects.
"I didn't expect that someone who joined the army would have such abilities." Le Cheng said with his hands in hand, which was completely different from his initial attitude.
People with strength can always win the respect of others, regardless of age.
