Chapter 264

The Great Wall of Zhao State, a lowland less than hundreds of miles south of Handan City, was built by the ancestors of Zhao State to resist the Wei State, which was at its peak more than a hundred years ago. With the decline of Wei State's hegemony, it has long become a forgotten existence by the Zhao people.

However, in the war between the coalition forces and the attack on Qin that broke out two years ago, Zhao became the biggest loser. Although its main force escaped the misfortune of the entire army, it was still surrounded by the Qin army. Fortunately, before the Qin army surrounded, the Zhao army retreated to the Southern Great Wall, and temporarily blocked the Qin army's troops with this Great Wall that was forgotten by the Zhao people.

But it was just blocked, and it was difficult to break through. In the past two years, the Zhao army has tried countless times, but the result proved that the Zhao army could only rely on the advantages of the terrain to protect itself, but it was utterly a dream to break through.

The Qin army camp outside the South Great Wall.

The Qin general Huan Yi, who had been fighting with the Zhao army for two years, did not show any fatigue at all. He was already very old. With Meng Ao's retreat, he had become the oldest man in the Qin army. His gray hair and no black beard were all telling others that he was already very old and he had not been able to continue fighting on the battlefield.

But looking at his expression, he could find that his condition was surprisingly good, with a prosperous experience no less than that of a young man. His body had grown old, but time could not corrupt his soul, and he could still fight.

"General, I haven't seen you for two years, and your style is still the same." Wang Jian, who came to support from Xinzheng, smiled with his fist in Huan Yi's tent.

"I'm old, but General Wang, you are in your prime, and the world will be where you gallop." Huan Yi looked at Wang Jian and said with a smile.

He would not be entrusted with Wang Jian. Huan Yi knew very well that as long as Wang Jian did not have any problems, he would be the next general of Qin after he left office.

Although Huan Yi would not need to please Wang Jian because of this, she was unwilling to create another enemy for no reason. Although he was not afraid, he still had a family and descendants.

"The General is too humble. After two years of war, the General not only did not show any fatigue at all, but his spirit was even better than the past. If he was still old, wouldn't it be ashamed to hear that?" Wang Jian complimented.

"What's this? Wu'an Jun faced the 400,000 Zhao army at its peak in Changping, and won the victory after three years of fierce fighting. Now I am surrounding 200,000 Zhao army. What's the difference between two years of war?" Huan Yi said with a smile.

"The Wu'an army completely established its position in history because of the Battle of Changping. The 400,000 Zhao army forged the reputation of Wu'an Jun. Now, there are also 400,000 troops to forge the reputation of the General." Wang Jian replied.

"400,000? In addition to the 100,000 Zhao army that Zhao State was preparing to support, could it be that Wei State also sent troops?" As a general, he was naturally extremely sensitive to the number of troops. When Huan Yi heard the number of 400,000, the first thing that came to mind was Wei State.

"The king wants Wei to send troops, can Wei not send troops?" Wang Jian didn't care at all that Ying Zheng could hear his compliment, and said with admiration in his tone.

"A army of 400,000?" Huan Yi silently recited the number, and the wrinkles on her face stretched out.

"The king has been waiting for the opportunity for two years, and he is finally here." Huan Yi said with a smile.

"Yes, the 400,000 army is enough to sacrifice to that killing weapon." Wang Jian also smiled.

The Qin army surrounded the Zhao army for two years. During this period, although the two hundred thousand Zhao troops surrounded as bait almost exhausted the national strength of Zhao State, maintaining the uninterrupted combat of the 200,000 troops all year round was also a heavy burden for the Qin State.

But Ying Zheng waited for two years, just to wait for an opportunity to destroy the military power of Zhao and Wei in one fell swoop, so as to swallow Zhao and Wei without having time to react.

"General Wang, is that killing weapon really that powerful?" Huan Yi asked.

Although he believed in Ying Zheng unconditionally, what kind of magic weapon was he able to use the power of more than 200,000 Qin troops to destroy the Zhao army and the Wei army elites, among the most elite legions in the world.

Such things transcend Huan Yi's existing cognition.

"The king could have used that weapon to attack Jicheng City, so that Yan State would not have any chance, but the king was useless. He was just worried that if he used it in Jicheng, it would leak out the news and make the Zhao army and Wei army prepared, so that it would not be able to achieve the effect of deciding the universe in one battle. What can make the king so patient, the general does not have to doubt its power. As long as the next plan does not have any surprises, the Zhao and Wei army gathered, the destruction of the Zhao and Wei countries will begin." Wang Jian replied.

Wang Jian naturally didn't know the current power of the killing weapon. It was the biggest secret of the Qin State. Except for the participants, no one knew what the power of the killing weapon had reached.

But Wang Jian knew that the appearance of the killing weapon when it first showed its sharpness a few years ago in the Battle of Puyang was already terrifying at that time, and after years of improvement, its power will only be more powerful than the past.

What he and Huan Yi need to do now is to lure the Zhao and Wei army into a gathering to fight the Qin army to the decisive battle. Only in this way can the power of that killing weapon be maximized.

When he thought of hundreds of thousands of coalition forces in Zhao and Wei gathered in a place, lined up the most commonly used and practical dense military formations in the world. When the general was fighting, he suddenly saw that he was surrounded by the huge killing weapon, and Wang Jian's body couldn't help but tremble.

Even though he has been fighting on the battlefield for more than 20 years, the scene hidden outside Puyang City, which is deep in his memory, still makes him feel a sense of trembling every time he thinks about it.

People may be lucky enough to save their lives under the cover of that killing weapon, but no matter how powerful the army is, they can only destroy one picture without knowing the killing weapon.

Once the main force of the Zhao-Wei coalition forces were destroyed, Zhao and Wei were a woman who had lost her protection to Qin.

Thinking of the word "woman", Wang Jian couldn't help but have a strange idea in his heart: the king seemed to like collecting princesses.

"Is the power of equipment really so terrifying?" Huan Yi said to herself.

If, as Wang Jian said, if there is another war in the future, existing tactics may need to be rewritten. Just like when cavalry and infantry replaced chariots hundreds of years ago, the big strategy is still developing, but existing tactics will be eliminated.

"It is also a martial arts, but it is just too sharp." Wang Jian replied.

"Ha, what are you doing now? The most important thing now is to make Zhao and Wei think that our Qin army has not made preparations yet, and induce them to attack our army, so as to join the 200,000 Zhao army surrounded by our Qin army, and then fight a decisive battle with our Qin army." Huan Yi sorted out her thoughts and said.
