Chapter 25 Victory

When Meng Wu turned around and saw the dark Zhao cavalry in the west, the situation was irreversible. He did not escape like Huan Qi, but instead let the five thousand short soldiers beside him line up against the Zhao cavalry to protect the Qin army. But this was still slow. The Zhao cavalry aimed at the back of the Qin army, and only the five hundred huge armored heavy cavalry led by the Ma Wei aimed at him.

With only a few hundred short soldiers protecting him, Meng Wu first got an arrow in front of him. When he was knocked down, a heavy cavalry rushed over, and his head was cut off by a knight. Meng Wu stood under the banner, with his armor and armor. He could tell at a glance that he was a general of the Qin army. After cutting off his head, the knight jumped off the horse and was about to rob the head. With Qin's rule, the main general was killed and killed. Qin's short soldiers rushed to kill the beheaded knight.

However, at this time, the horse guards who led the heavy cavalry to charge also jumped off their horses and fought with Qin in a short and infantry battle. After the bloody battle, Meng Wu's head finally took over the chief spear, and hundreds of cavalrymen shouted: "Meng Wu is dead! Meng Wu is dead! Meng Wu is dead..."

After the sudden attack of the Zhao army cavalry, the general's head was raised high by the Zhao army. The Qin army, which barely supported by the Zhao army, looked back and saw no intention of fighting, and the military formation collapsed suddenly. Tens of thousands of Qin soldiers abandoned the formation and fled, and the 20,000 Zhao army cavalry immediately started a massacre that lasted for 20,000.

"Oh——,oh——,oh——" The Zhao army infantry after the bloody battle cheered loudly. Their bloody hands held up the silver coins on the ground, and then let the silver coins fall on their heads. The excitement of the disaster and the heavy reward made them crazy.

"Long live—!Long live—!Long live—!Long live—!" Everyone, including the wounded, shouted long live, and then, under the order of the military officer and commander of the soldiers, Zhao army quickly pursued the fleeing Qin army.

"Hu..." It was not until this moment that Li Mu let out a long sigh.

"The general is mighty!" The pressure from his confidant Hu Ying is far less heavy than that of Li Mu. He bowed deeply to Li Mu and took the lead in congratulations.

"The general is mighty!" The generals, advisers, military officers, and these people bowed deeply to Li Mu together.

"The general is mighty!" Mu Ling was an outsider after all, and he did not have a tacit understanding between Zhao Renjian, so he congratulated Li Mu one step late.

"If there is no son-Leng's 30,000 kilograms of silver, our army may not be able to win." Li Mu held Mu Leng's hand and made this statement. He saw the doubts in Mu Leng's eyes, remembering the words he had not finished before the war, so he said again: "If I treat the soldiers with national soldiers, the soldiers will repay me with national soldiers; if I treat the soldiers with passers-by, the soldiers will repay me with passers-by; if I treat the soldiers with grass, the soldiers will repay me with hatred. This is the Zhao people."

Li Mu's words were still broad, and it was not necessary to use this passage on the Chu people. Just as Mu Ling was thinking, Li Mu suddenly bowed deeply to him, and then let the emperor drive forward.

"Tell the King," Yingdu Grand Sima Mansion, together with his ministers, was interrupted by the meeting in Henan Province by the Feixun Officer who was rushing to the scene. The Feixun Officer blushed and his eyes widened. He knew something big had happened when he looked at his expression.

"Yes." Chu Feixun.com covers half of the world, and there are also carrier pigeons. Xiong Jing really couldn't think of some big thing.

"The Marquis of Wu'an in Zhao State won a great victory!" Feixun's voice increased eighth degrees. "Kill Meng Wu and kill 120,000 Qin troops."

"Ah?!" The people in the room were stunned and were overjoyed. Xiang Yan slapped the table with a palm and shouted: "The State of Zhao is worry-free!"

"If this is true, the State of Zhao will be in no way safe." Li Qi completely agreed with Xiang Yan's judgment. A few days ago, he was worried that once it snowed in the north, Handan would be surrounded by the Qin army. Unexpectedly, Li Mu could defeat the Qin army with 150,000 people. He couldn't help but look at Xiong Jing, who had once judged and believed that Li Mu would defeat the Qin army.

"The King Yingming." Someone saw the opportunity and immediately flattered him.

"What about the remaining Qin army?" Xiong Jing was still concerned about the Qin army in the middle. There was a Great Wall blocking the south. If the middle road was allowed to move south, Zhao would be over. Therefore, Li Mu must fight this battle and must win.

"The remaining Qin army may be in the Daying." Feixun was sent from Jiumenyi, north of the Hutuo River, with very short content.

"Get out." Xiong Jing saw that Feixun Officer could only guess, so he asked him to retreat.

"The king is wise." Li Qie also said. "It is worth buying this victory for 30,000 silver."

"The Zhao army cannot always rely on rewards to fight wars." Xiong Jing was not happy when talking about this.

He knew that the Zhao people were completely different from the Chu people, and also knew that under the "legal system", the Zhao people's situation was not much better than the common people of Qi. The Zhao people were deceived by the government and court more times, and it became realistic. Like an assassin, only good encounters can be rewarded. If they are not good encounters, there will be no reward...

As he thought about it, Xiong Jing felt that he was thinking too much. The Chu people were not as utilitarian as the Zhao people, because they had become part of the Chu State. They had the right to participate in the national affairs, the right to surrender, and the right to oppose national policies and laws that were not beneficial to them. Why should they work hard for the Zhao family if they don’t want to reward?

"It's okay to buy this big victory for 7,500 gold!" Xiang Yan didn't know that Xiong Jing was thinking about something deeper, and he also felt that the 30,000 silver flowers were worth it. "If 75,000 gold could buy ten victory, the Qin State would be destroyed."

"Haha..." A cheerful laughter came from the room. The victory of the Zhao army was the victory of the Chu army. The Chu State, which had a sea route, was really not short of money. The main thing was people, food, and horses.

"The Qin army left Jingxing, 250,000, Wu'an Hou killed Meng Wu, and 120,000 were killed, and the Qin army in the middle was defeated." Xiang Yan expressed his judgment. "The winter has begun in the north, and it is not easy to transport grain from Hedong Road. The Qin army may no longer attack Zhao this year."

"How about next year?" Meng Wu, the chief general of the Central Army, was killed, and the Qin army's offensive this year naturally collapsed. Selecting generals, deploying again, mobilizing soldiers, raising supplies, and transporting food and grass, these are not something that can be completed in a short period of time. Next year will be different. The Qin army has begun to face Li Mu. Once the Qin army attaches importance to it, things will be difficult to handle.

"Next year, the Qin people will send heavy troops to Jingxing east." Speaking of next year, Xiang Yan's face was solemn again. Li Mu won this year, can Li Mu win again next year? "If our Chu State does not save him, Zhao State will be in danger!"

"King, I heard that Wu'an Hou..." Don't let me say anything but stop. He glanced at Lu Gao. Lu Gao was a smart man. He knew that everyone would not discuss going out to attack Qin for the time being. After accusing him of the crime, he stepped down. At this time, Don't let me say: "I heard that Wu'an Hou wanted to make the deposed crown prince Zhao Jia the King of Zhao. If this victory is made, he may want to take this matter."

"How can a king be deposed and established by another surname?" Naojiu snorted and expressed strong opposition to Li Mu's behavior. The Zhao State Office did not change its clan as frequently as the Chu State. The foreign clan of Chu State refers to other than the Mi surname, which is equivalent to the Zhao State. Li Mu did not have the Zhao State's Zhao State, and was not a subordinate minister of Zhao Jia, so he was not qualified to point fingers at the throne of Zhao State.

"If this is the case, Wu'an Hou will be defeated." Xiang Yan and others also agreed, thinking that Li Mu did this wrong.

"If Zhao Jia is really a king..." Li Qi turned his eyes and saw everyone staring at him, he didn't dare to say anything more.

Xiong Jing was not as angry as Naojiu. It was common for a country's general to secretly fight for the throne with his heirs in the palace after Qin. If Zhao Jia could really relocate Zhao to King Zhao, Guo Kai's compromise faction against Qin would be able to clean up all of them.

"Since the king has a personal relationship with Wu'an Hou, he may go and believe it and persuade him." Naojiu continued. "The Qin army continued to attack, the throne of Zhao changed, and the political situation changed several times. This is absolutely impossible."

"Li Mu..." Xiong Jing shook his head repeatedly. He talked with Li Mu for several days. Based on his judgment, Li Mu was a very confident person. He was so confident that as long as he thought it was right, he would definitely do it and no one could stop him. King Zhao Xiaocheng was his king and could not do anything to him. How could he, the King of Chu, persuade him?

"If you are not honest, you can go to the Marquis of Chunping," Xiong Jing said of Zhao Liang, the prime minister. "You can command the deposed crown prince Zhao Jia to our Chu State."

"The king is wise." Li Mu wanted to make Zhao Jia the king. If Zhao Liang asked Zhao Jia to come to Yingdu just like Zhao Liang did to force him to detain him, Zhao State would be quiet. As soon as Xiong Jing said this, his ministers immediately praised him.

Xiong Jing stared at them, as if to tell whether their praise was true or false. After looking at him for a while, he said, "Please come in and discuss the attack on Qin again."

The Qin map hung on the wall slowly unfolded again, and the mountains, rivers and rivers of Beidi County and Shangjun are very detailed, and it is clear at a glance. This is a map stolen by Xiong Qi, which is hundreds of times more accurate than the sketch drawn by Lu Gao and Lu Qi. Facing this map, Lu Gao quickly entered the previous state and began to explain the last journey into Qin.

"...Along the west of Quyan and east of Dahe, there are two channels entering Qin. One is the Yanshi Pass on the west side, and the other is the Fangqu on the east side of the Yanshi Pass (now Huan County, Gansu). The Yanshi Pass needs to travel more than 200 miles west of Dahe, and go to the mouth of Qingshui and go south to the Yanshi Pass on the estuary of the river. The water and grass along the way are abundant, and many merchants travel;

When you travel from the Qiang land (now Lingwu, Ningxia) at the bend of the river, you do not need to travel more than 200 miles west, but you can go straight south. However, the Qiang land reaches the Fanggu for 500 miles, with less water and more sandy land. Only when you enter the Fanggu, Malian Water, can you find water plants. Therefore, most Rong people come from Yan's clutch into Qin."

"The Malian River passes through Yiqu, and then flows into Xianyang at the south of Yiqu, and then flows into Xianyang after it is connected to the Jing River in the Yanshi Pass?" Li Qie asked in detail.

"Yes." Lu Gao replied. "The two waters are the way to Xianyang after Qin. Jing River, outside the Malian River, after entering the Yanshi Pass, you can also go south to Xianyang along the Wei River. However, this road is far away and few people walk."

"Long live! Long live! Long live the king! Long live! Long live! Long live Wu'an Hou..." Handan was already night, but the cheers continued. The Zhao army won a great victory, killing Meng Wu and killing 120,000 Qin people. This was the thirty-six-six-year-old Zhao army defeated the Qin army in the field after the Battle of Yanyu. The scale of this battle was greater than that of Yanyu, and it was much more important to Zhao State than that of Yanyu. The battle of Yanyu was just a battle for cities and towns. The battle of Yi'an was a battle for survival of Zhao State. Fortunately, the Zhao army won.
