Chapter 331: Qin Army Raided Shangdang County

On the fifth day of the 10th month of the 20th year of Qianyuan, the King of Qin personally handed the seal of the commander to Bai Qi and said seriously: "General Bai, I will hand over the hope of the Great Qin to you today. Please bring back Shangdang County and Henan County. The ancestors and ancestors of the Great Qin are all watching you."

After losing the opportunity to seize Bashu, Shangdang County and Henan County were the last hope of Qin, so Qin was almost desperate this time. If this action failed, Qin would be completely blocked by Deng Zhao in Guanzhong, a corner of Xiliang.

Bai Qi took over the Seal of the Supervisor from the King of Qin. This time, Qin once again handed over the key battle of life and death to him. The last time was the battle of Guanzhong, and he won, but Bai Qi was really not sure this time, because this time his opponent was Zhao, which was known as the world's most powerful country, and had the most powerful lineup in the world, which was incomparable to the previous battle of Guanzhong.

But Bai Qi took over the Shield without hesitation. He is a person who is strong when facing a strong person. He has practiced this action countless times on the sand table. It can be said that he is 70% sure, and the remaining 30% can only be said to depend on God's will.

"Don't worry, even if I fight for this life, I will bring back Shangdang County and Henan County. The Qin Dynasty won thousands of victories!" Bai Qi said.

"The Qin Dynasty has won thousands of victories!" said a group of Qin ministers in unison.

After saying goodbye to the King of Qin, Bai Qi led a group of Qin generals out of Chang'an City to join the 150,000 Qin troops. This time, Qin generals sent out the best lineup. The main general Bai Qi, deputy general Ying Huai, general Bai Chen, Shelitu, Li Chong, Geng Yue, Wang Feng, Ma Sheng, and the young generation of Qin Guo Dong, Shen Zhi, and Zhong Yuan. In addition to Meng Zhan's remaining base camp, Qin gave all the best lineups to Bai Qi, which can be said to be determined to win.

On October 15, the 20th year of Qianyuan, the Qin army quietly arrived at the Binze City in Hedong County during the snowy season. This was the secret garrison of the Qin army. Binze City was closest to Yanga City in Shangdang County. Bai Qi's plan was to raid Yanga from here, and then break Gaodu and Xuan family as quickly as possible, and then head straight to the eldest son of Shangdang County. As long as the Changzi City was broken, the entire southern part of Shangdang County would fall into the hands of the Qin army. Bai Qi was very self-aware. The northern part of Shangdang County was very close to Jinyang City, the capital of Zhao State, and even if the Qin army fought, it would be difficult to defend it. Therefore, Bai Qi's goal was to the southern part of Shangdang County and Henan County. As long as these places were taken down, the crisis of Qin's shortage of food would be resolved.

In the Binze County Government, Bai Qi gathered all the generals and surrounded the map. Bai Qi said: "This time it is in the middle of winter, so it is very difficult. The task of this general is to fight to the Xuan City within ten days. If it cannot be done, when Zhao State reacts, we will fail this time and face endless blows from Zhao State. Do you understand?"

"I understand!" Everyone said in unison. It was very difficult to reach Xuanshi City in ten days, especially in this cold winter, which was even more difficult. However, the arrow was on the string and had to be fired. No matter how difficult it was, you had to bite the bullet.

"But don't worry, in autumn, when the Hu people on the grassland went south, most of the main army of Zhao State were transferred to the northern border. It has not yet withdrawn, and the chance of our army's success is still very high." Seeing that everyone's faces were very serious, Bai Qi gave another reassurance, that is, the main army of Zhao State was in the northern border and could not withdraw for a while.

However, although the Zhao army, known as a million troops, had hundreds of thousands of main forces in the northern border, they could still dispatch more troops than the Qin army, so the difficulty of the Qin army was still very high.

"Wang Feng, Ma Sheng obeyed the order!" Bai Qi ordered directly.

"The last general is here!" Wang Feng and Ma Sheng came out to respond. Since the last battle to enter Shu failed, tens of thousands of elite troops were lost. Although they saved the land north of Jiameng Pass, they were still punished after returning to Chang'an, and almost beaten to the end. Therefore, this time they followed Bai Qi to fight and planned to make military achievements and restore their positions.

"I ordered you and the other two to lead 30,000 elite troops as the vanguard and head straight to Yang'a City. Within two days, you will be able to break through Yanga. Is there any problem?" Bai Qi said.

"Please rest assured General Bai, I will wait until I will take down Yang'a City!" Bai Qi gave very little time. You should know that the entire Qin army will break through the Xuan City within ten days. It is already very good to be able to squeeze out two days for Wang Feng and Ma Sheng's vanguard army, so Wang Feng had no objection.

On October 16, the 20th year of Qianyuan, Wang Feng and Ma Sheng led 30,000 vanguard troops outside Yang'a City, which was adjacent to Hedong County. There were 10,000 Zhao troops stationed here all year round. Wang Feng and Ma Sheng were under great pressure.

"General Wang, there are 10,000 Zhao troops stationed in Yang'a City, and our army only has 30,000. If the attack is very difficult, there is still one day left before General Bai gives us. If it is impossible to break through Yang'a City within one day." Ma Sheng said to Wang Feng. The Qin army was stationed fifteen miles outside Yanga City. Since it was the middle of winter, Shangdang County was full of ice and snow. The Zhao army basically stayed in the city and did not send any scouts out of the city. After all, no one would have thought that the Qin army would send troops at this time. Therefore, when the Qin army came here, the Zhao army did not notice it.

Wang Feng nodded and said, "I know, so it's only necessary to lure the Zhao army out. I have sent someone to investigate. There is a large Zhao army camp thirty miles north of this place, where a large number of Zhao army food and grass were stored. If there is an attack there, the Zhao army in Yang'acheng would have to come out."

After saying that, Wang Feng took out a sheepskin map from his arms and said to Ma Sheng: "General Ma, you lead 10,000 elite troops to attack this place, and make the formation bigger so that the Zhao army will send more troops. As soon as the Zhao army leaves Yangacheng, I will lead the troops to take down Yangacheng first, and then lead the troops north to join you to encircle and annihilate the Zhao army."

"Okay, that's it!" After hearing Wang Feng's plan, Ma Sheng had no objection, and then he lit up 10,000 elite troops to go north. Wang Feng ordered the remaining 20,000 troops to lurk and wait for Zhao's army to come out.

Half a day later, a fire lit up at the Zhao army's grain thirty miles north of Yang'a City. The snowy land of Shangdang was particularly dazzling. The Zhao army soldiers guarding the city were shocked when they saw this scene and hurried to report to the guard.

The garrison of Yanga City was named Tang Liang. At this time, he was drinking hot wine and enjoying singing and dancing in the room. At this time, a soldier guarding the city broke in and said, "General, the food and grass camp outside the city has caught fire!"

Originally, when Tang Liang saw the soldiers breaking in, he was very angry and was about to scold him, but when he heard the fire of the Grain and Grain Camp, Tang Liang immediately threw these unhappiness out of his mind, pushed the woman in his arms away, and asked anxiously: "What's going on? How did the Grain and Grain Camp catch fire?"

The soldier shook his head and said, "The villain doesn't know, but the fire did not catch an accident, it seemed like an enemy attacked the food camp!"

"A enemy attacked the Grain and Grain Camp? Who was it? Send the order and click the army and follow the general to rescue the Grain and Grain Camp!" Although I don't know who attacked the Grain and Grain and Grain and Grain and Grain and Grain and Grain and Grain and Grain and Grain and Grain and Grain and Grain and Grain and Grain Camp, it was Tang Liang's responsibility to guard Yang'acheng and Grain and Grain and Grain and Grain and Grain Camp. If the Grain and Grain Camp was lost, his life would be difficult to save, so he immediately ordered the army and horse to rescue him.

Tang Liang took nine thousand soldiers and horses to the north, leaving only one thousand men to stay in the city. After the Zhao army headed north, Wang Feng directly led his troops to attack Yang'a City. The thousand Zhao troops who stayed in Yanga City were caught off guard and were captured by the Qin army in less than half an hour.

After Wang Feng entered the city, he left a group of people to stay and quickly headed north to join Ma Sheng with the remaining troops. When Wang Feng led his troops to arrive, Ma Sheng had already suppressed the nine thousand Zhao army. Wang Feng's arrival became the last straw that overwhelmed the Zhao army. Under the siege of Wang Feng and Ma Sheng, the nine thousand Zhao army was wiped out, and Zhao general Tang Liang died in battle.
