"promise."
Zhuoxian was captured and fell into the hands of Zhao Shu, which was of great significance to Da Qin.
This means that Da Qin is completely capable of approaching Jicheng with troops in a short period of time. As long as Wang Jian is willing, he can defeat Jicheng in one battle.
If the royal capital is destroyed, even if King Yan is away, the foundation of the Yan Kingdom will be completely ruined.
Zhao Shu was reorganizing his army in Zhuoxian County, and Heibingtai conveyed the news to Wang Jian's ears.
"General, Gongzishu conquered Zhuoxian."
Hearing this, Wang Jian was stunned, and a touch of surprise flashed deep in his eyes. He was optimistic about Zhao Shu, but he never thought that Zhao Shu would attack Zhuoxian immediately.
Before the war began, he naturally knew something about Zhuoxian, and clearly understood the difficulty of success and the elite Yan army in Zhuoxian.
However, just like that, he was still defeated by Zhao Shu in a single battle.
This made Wang Jian's evaluation of Zhao Shu even higher.
"Pass a message to the young master and let him deploy his troops under Jicheng to hold back Ju Wu in Jicheng."
Wang Jian looked solemn and gave a decisive order to Shang Qing, saying: "Buy time for General Li Mu to capture the Shanggu area and kill King Xi of Yan."
"It also buys time for Ben to arrive."
"promise."
Nodding in agreement, he turned around and left. He knew in his heart that the countdown to the demise of the Yan Kingdom had begun since Zhao Shu conquered Zhuoxian.
Wang Jian's methods were too domineering, and compared to Zhao Shu's fierceness, they were more general.
This general of the Qin Dynasty liked to use force to suppress others. Almost as long as Wang Jian took action, it meant that the war was settled.
Compared to Zhao Shu, Wang Jian is more stable.
Watching Dun Rui leave, Wang Jian turned his head and gave a decisive order to Sima, the Chinese army, saying: "Immediately order the whole army to attack Zhuoxian County."
"Let the follow-up army continue to recruit ships from Fan Yang and Yixian, then cross the river immediately, and rush to Zhuoxian after crossing the river."
"promise."
For the Great Qin warriors, every battle to destroy the country is an opportunity to make achievements and change the fate of the family.
Now that Li Mu and Zhao Shu have achieved great results, this news will naturally inspire the entire army.
Jicheng.
"Prime Minister, Gongzi Shu has conquered Zhuoxian County. Wang Jian's army is recruiting ships to cross the river. The king is heading north, but is restrained by Li Mu..."
When he heard the news coming one after another, Ju Wu let out a long sigh. He felt that he had aged many years and suddenly lost his energy.
In the Prime Minister's Mansion, there were countless lines marked on the huge map. Ju Wu knew clearly that this time, the number of troops sent by Great Qin had reached 400,000.
As for the Yan State, even the young men recruited in a hurry only numbered 300,000. One hundred thousand of them are just young and strong.
"Instruct the army to repair the city wall, prepare to roll stones and logs, and prepare to defend Jicheng to the death."
Ju Wu's eyes were full of calmness, and he said to the deputy general: "At the same time, transport food from various places into Jicheng and speed up the production of arrows and weapons."
"At the same time, we will train the young men recruited to transform them from civilians to soldiers."
"promise."
Nodding in agreement, the lieutenant turned and left. Ju Wu stared at the map with an ugly expression. Faced with Wang Jian's general situation, he thought hard for a long time and had no solution at all.
He knew in his heart that once Wang Jian and Zhao Shu met, they would definitely target Jicheng.
When the time comes to face more than 250,000 Great Qin warriors, Jicheng will not be able to resist for long.
After all, Yan Wangxi had taken away almost all the elites from the very beginning. Now that Zhuoxian had fallen, Jicheng and Wang Jian's army no longer had any obstacles.
Two days later.
Wang Jian led the army to Zhuo County.
"The last general has met the superior general." Zhao Shu saluted Wang Jian.
"Young Master, there is no need to be polite." Wang Jian smiled and looked at Le Chenggong.
Seeing Wang Jian looking over, Zhao Shu smiled and said: "General, this Zhuoxian guard has succeeded and now belongs to General Qin."
Zhao Shu explained to Wang Jian, then Zhao Shu said to Lecheng, "General Lecheng, this is General Wang Jian."
"General Chenggong has met the general." Lecheng quickly saluted Wang Jian.
Success is naturally aware of Wang Jian's reputation. It can be said that the current Wang Jian is the best general in the Qin Dynasty and the best military general in the Central Plains.
"The general abandoned darkness and turned to light. He was very foresighted. The land of the Central Plains will only have one name in the future, and that is Great Qin."
Wang Jian nodded towards Lecheng and said, "Sooner or later, you will be glad for today's wise move."
"Enter the shogunate."
"promise."
After a brief exchange of greetings, everyone entered the shogunate. The military commander poured tea for everyone and then left.
After taking a sip of tea, Wang Jian turned to Zhao Shu and said, "Sir, General Li Mu has now captured Shanggu and is confronting King Xi of Yan."
"With General Li Mu's ability and the combat strength of 150,000 frontier troops, it is only a matter of time before Yan Wangxi is annihilated."
At this point, Wang Jian tested and said: "It's just that King Yan Xi, does he want to live or..."
"Haha, General, in my opinion, the dead Yan Wang Xi is far cuter than the living Yan Wang Xi."
Zhao Shu raised his head and glanced at Wang Jian, smiled, and said: "It's just that we can't let King Yan die thinking that Yan will fight to the death."
"Even if he dies, I want King Xi of Yan to lose his reputation as a fool. If King Xi of Yan dies fighting for the country of Yan, there will be too much trouble."
"It is not conducive for Da Qin to win over the people of Yan. Therefore, we must contact General Li Mu to give King Xi of Yan a chance to survive."
"King Yan is happy to be a king. He has long been accustomed to enjoying himself. He has no intention or thought of dying."
Zhao Shu's eyes were full of calculations, and his tone became even colder at this moment: "So, as long as General Li Mu is restrained and gives Yan Wangxi a chance to escape secretly, Yan Wangxi will definitely seize it."
"In this way, King Xi of Yan, who has abandoned the people of Yan, will definitely be despised by the people of Yan."
"After the war is over, the Yan people's dissatisfaction with King Yan Xi will dilute their longing for their homeland. In this way, it will be more conducive to our Da Qin to win over the people."
.......
Hearing this, Wang Jian nodded.
Putting down the tea cup, Wang Jian took a deep look at Zhao Shu and said meaningfully: "If you become a civil servant, I think you will shine brightly, no less than in the army."
"Shangqing, please let General Li Mu keep a hand in secret to give King Yan Xi a chance of survival."
"It is easy to destroy a country, but it is difficult to win over the people. If there is such an opportunity, we will naturally seize it."
"promise."
Nodding, Dunrui couldn't help but glance at Zhao Shu.
He did not expect that Zhao Shu not only rose to prominence in the military, but also had a good vision above that of a civil servant.
Such a person is destined to become a legend.
Fortunately, the conflict between him and Zhao Shu was resolved by Li Si.
Otherwise, with an enemy like Zhao Shu, even sleeping would be uneasy.
