Chapter 15 Lai People

The army set out to Muling Pass first. If political agreement cannot be reached, the rescue of Qi will evolve into a private war between the Yingdu, Song, Lu, Zhao and the Qin people. Once Fangcheng is in a tight position, the troops from Yingdu, Song and Lu will immediately withdraw back to Fangcheng. The Zhao and Wei army under Sima Shang will also withdraw from Qi with the Chu army, and the aid of Qi may be abandoned halfway.

Dou Yuzhi and others agreed to rescue Qi, so they would try to maintain the situation of Hanzhong, Shangyu, and Fangcheng before the summer. According to the inference of the Ministry of Knowing the People, Li Xin's army had a maximum of 200,000 people left. Meng Tian and Zhao's soldiers were the tens of thousands of Qin troops who escaped in the Battle of Weinan. The remaining ones should be Meng Tian's newly conquered soldiers in Ba, Shu, Qin and Hanzhong.

These troops are not enough to attack, they can only defend. The gathering of large armies is also a pressure for Qin. If the Chu army enters Guanzhong again, the Qin king will abandon the capital and flee. The Grand Sima Mansion has not considered the attack in this direction, but such an attack is not very valuable. If the attack enters Xianyang, the Qin king will definitely flee, and it will waste not much gunpowder. Qin builds dams and walls in various valleys of the Qinling Mountains, and it is necessary to blow up these obstacles and cannon vehicles to enter Guanzhong.

Ji Ying was in his sleep and set out for the first military consultation between the two countries. The Qi State, two thousand miles away, was rushing in the north wind in the Qin army flags that covered the sky and clouds. Listening to the sound of cannons in front of him, Wang Jian, wearing a leather helmet, bounced the Shimu in front of him with interest.

He enjoyed this feeling of wandering around in the garden. The only drawback is that the battle between Jixi and Qi was not a hard battle. The Qin army attacked Qi from the frozen Ji River. Before the battle was over, the soldiers of Qi began to flee. The battle evolved into a pursuit. The chopped heads not only did not satisfy the soldiers' desire for military merit, but instead aroused their fierceness.

After conquering Guyi, he quickly conquered Pingyin. Since then, the war has been wandering around. Only the cities and towns of Qi along the way are the cities of Qi along the way. Most of these cities would rather die than surrender. Among the supplies of the Qin army, there were weapons to break the city and artillery. The cities that did not know how to guard against artillery were often conquered quickly, and Lixia County was no exception.

‘Boom…’, with each cannon sound, the north wind quickly blew away the smoke from the gun mouth. The smoke from the gun mouth was strong, and it disappeared more than ten steps away by the wind. Before the cannon was shot, a shout was heard. The Qin soldiers quickly poured into the town from the bombardment doorway, and the sound of drums and killing sounds suddenly appeared. At this time, a carriage rushed over.

"Report to General, the witchcraft has not exploded today!" The military officer bowed to Wang Jian and then quickly retreated.

"Good." Wang Jian touched his beard and smiled, "This is all the gift from King Jing, haha."

"If you don't explode today, you will explode tomorrow." Wang Ao on one side was not as optimistic as Wang Jian. Pingyin was the westernmost end of the Qi Great Wall. When the Qin army attacked Pingyin, the cannons exploded one after another, and the city gate almost didn't snatch it. As the attacks along the way, only four of the twenty cannons were left. With the one brought back by Wang Ben (the other three were smashed by a catapult), there were only five artillery pieces left in the army.

"A cannons are a luxury. How can they be insatiable if they draw one city to make one city?" Wang Jian's smile remained unabashed. It was an unexpected surprise to hand over thirty cannons to him, and he would not be worried even if he exploded all of them.

"Hey!" Wang Ao was not as open-minded as Wang Jian. He sighed and said, "My skills are not as good as human beings."

"So what if you're not as good as a person?" The shouts of killings spread throughout the city, which means that this important city has been pulled out by the Qin army. "I have many soldiers, many grains, and a vast land. King Jing cannot defeat me."

Wang Jian knew very well what advantages he had and what advantages the enemy had. However, young people like Wang Ao were competitive everywhere. In his eyes, there were only two countries in the world, including other countries and Qin. One is that Qin is not as good as other countries, and Qin is not as good as other countries. How come the world is the only country and Qin is not as good as other countries. Why are there other countries and Qin left? Other countries have advantages of other countries, and Qin also has its own advantages. At least now, Qin is invincible.

"Oh..." Wang Ao sighed again. He said, "The benefits of witchcraft are not available in the world. People in Jing have witchcraft, so I can't win."

"The benefits of witchcraft are indeed unavailable in the world, but witchcraft is just the great ones of continuous crossbows. When can the continuous crossbows determine the outcome of the battle?" The cannon is not in his own hands, but there is still a little mystery. When it comes to his own hands, he carefully looked at the shape, performance, and order of launching the cannon, Wang Jian only defined it as the "large crossbows of continuous crossbows".

"I thought witches were not as good as horse harnesses." Wang Jian said. At this time, Wang Ben ran from a distance and failed to attack Linzi. The cavalry then raided the halberd-holding army that was eager to return to Linzi, and quickly joined Wang Jian's army after the war. The cavalry generals under Wu Fen were extremely cunning in fighting. They bit the Qi people hard, but their losses were insignificant.

"Half of the men in Guanzhong can ride, and it is not easy to ride well. Now I have horse harnesses, and all those who ride are good at riding are good at riding." In the last battle of Niushoushui, Wang Jian witnessed the power of the Qin army's cavalry. If the Qin army had not had a cavalry at that time, it would be useless for him to pretend to die. "I have 40,000 cavalrymen. Although the Jing people have dragon horses, how many cavalrymen are there?"

"The Jing people only have ten thousand cavalry." Wang Jian's feelings were also Wang Ao's feelings, and he gradually felt the importance of the Qin cavalry. Now that Zhao State has fallen, the source of horses in Chu State has been completely cut off, and there will be fewer and fewer knights. Although there are dragon horses, it is not a place to raise horses south of the river. Even the horses of Wei State have to be purchased from Zhao State.

"Only ten thousand cavalry?" Wang Jian smiled. At this time, Wang Ben had already come over, and his face was not good. "There was a report from the front that the 150,000 troops had entered Linzi. The Jimo doctor Tian He personally led it. The troops were all armed with huge armor, strong armor, and powerful soldiers, and they were in a strong army."

"Jimo Army?" Wang Jian was an authentic Qin man and was not familiar with Qi State. He looked at Wang Ao naturally. Wang Ao went on a mission to Qi State several times and was familiar with Qi State.

"Jimo is one of the five capitals of Qi. It has more than 20 cities under its jurisdiction, and 200,000 soldiers with armor and tutors. The city of the capital is a cloud, sweating profusely, and praises Linzi, so Chengtian Dan restores Qi's land." Wang Ao recalled everything about Jimo. "Jimo's doctor Tian He was the son of former doctor Tian Shao. The Yan army besieged the city, and Tian Shao died in the battle. Tian He was always close to the people of Jing and the marriage between Jing and Qi was advocated."

"How about its people?" Wang Jian didn't expect Jimo to praise Yin Sheng with Linzi, no wonder he became the Five Capitals.
