Ying Ying lifted the curtain door of the Central Army's tent and walked in. In the tent, Lu Chao was facing away from the tent, staring at the map hanging on the side, standing still, like a sculpture.

"General!" Although Lu Chao turned his back to him, Ying Ying still bowed to Lu Chao. This is the case with the Qin army system. Even if Ying Ying is a prince, he is only a general in the army and needs to be respected by General Lu Chao.

Ying Ying and Lu Chao are similar to age. Ying Ying is over thirty years old this year, while Lu Chao is only thirty-two. However, Ying Ying is now full of admiration for this young general. With several fronts in Qin State stalemates, Lu Chao's brilliant achievements along the way will affect the direction of the entire war.

"You are trying to ask, why did we stop moving forward?" Lu Chao asked lightly without looking back.

"Yes!" Ying Ying nodded and said, "Now that the Zhao-Western coalition has been broken by us, why not take advantage of the situation to march and head straight to Daliang? If we can do this, the Zhao people must mobilize the main force to rescue, thereby reducing the pressure on General Li in the direction of Hedong. As long as General Li can make a breakthrough on either side, it will be not far away to destroy Wei."

Lu Chao turned to Changfeng Wenxue,.c▽≤t turned over and looked at Ying Ying, "We did break the courage of the Zhao-Western coalition, but now we are at the end of our strength. We need time to digest such a large area in one breath."

"Is it because of logistics?" Ying Ying asked.

Lu Chao nodded, "It was cold and the snow was flying, and transportation was difficult. The food transported from the rear would consume about six kilograms on the road every ten kilograms. There was no enough food and grass in the army."

"You can order Gongsun Ying to recruit civilians again and strengthen transportation." Ying Ying said.

"Now there is no Korea anymore, but only Yingchuan County of the Qin Dynasty." Lu Chao turned around, walked back to the big case, sat down, and pointed to the chair in front of him, "General Ying, sit down!"

"Thank you General!" Ying Ying sat down and faced Lu Chao.

"When we first pacified the Han area, we used thunder to destroy the rebels of the Han area and suppress those who were distracted from the Han area. At this time, we established our authority. Now, Yingchuan County has been established and the Han people have become Qin people. We must be gentle and win the hearts. For this battle, Yingchuan County has done its best. If we increase taxes and collect food and grass, Yingchuan will inevitably be unbearable and forced to force it. The results we have achieved before will inevitably be overwhelmed. After winter, spring plows will be immediately, and we cannot dry up the pond and fish." Lu Chao said warmly: "The battle to destroy the country needs to be slowly planned. What's more, we may welcome another enemy at the moment."

"Another enemy?" Ying Ying frowned.

"The Black Ice Platform has just sent information, and the Eastern Army has moved." A cold light flashed in Lu Chao's eyes, "Naba, a general under Ye Zhen, the Central Army of the Eastern Army, was already moving towards Fengcheng with five thousand Eastern Army."

"Ye Zhen's subordinates lacked enough troops and were divided into various places. If he really moved, it means that Gao Yuan must have sent a large number of troops to reinforce. Do he want to officially start a war with us?" Ying Ying stood up suddenly. He had personally visited Jishi City, saw the power of the Eastern Army, and also saw the militia temporarily recruited by the Eastern Army. He was deeply wary of whether the Eastern Army was not recruited.

Lu Chao nodded in admiration, "You are right. The 6,000 cavalry led by the infantry under the command of Ye Zhen, the more than 10,000 cavalry of the Donghu people who were newly recruited to the Eastern Army, and the First Division of the Young Guards are rushing to Tianhe."

"Putting aside the Donghu people, the infantry and the First Division of the Youth Guards are both elite troops of the Eastern Army." Ying Ying was in a heavy mood.

"There are also reasons for this when stopping the attack on the Wei people." Lu Chao said: "We must concentrate our efforts to deal with the Eastern Army."

"Defend Fengcheng?" Ying Ying looked at the map and asked.

"No, take the initiative!" Lu Chao laughed.

"Take the initiative?" Ying Ying was stunned and immediately reacted, "The East Army of the Conquest must think that we will defend Fengcheng. If we take the initiative, we can take the initiative on the battlefield. We will defeat the Naha army in one fell swoop."

"If it's just to deal with the few thousand people in Naha, will it take me so much effort?" Lu Chao smiled coldly, "This time, let me leave some deep memories for Gao Yuan first!"

Looking at the cold smile on Lu Chao's face, Ying Ying couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart.

Xintian, the headquarters of the Wei and Zhao coalition forces. Zhou Changshou, the commander of the Wei and Zhao coalition forces, looked much older than a few years ago. He was less than fifty years old, but his hair was mottled and gray. Tan Feng and Zhou Yu's rebellion in Quwo gave the entire Wei and Zhao coalition defense line a heavy blow, causing the defense line he had worked hard to dissolve in an instant, and had to retreat hundreds of miles and lose tens of thousands of soldiers. Now, he no longer cared about hating Tan Feng and Zhou Yu, the two anti-bone cubs. He wanted to do it to re-stabilize the second line of defense.

The only thing that is thankful is that in this great defeat, the Zhao army suffered extremely small losses and basically maintained combat effectiveness. This is also his greatest reliance. The second thing he can rely on is the weather in the cold winter. Although the Wei and Zhao coalition forces were defeated in the cold winter, they were fighting locally. The Qin people were indeed as morale as rainbows, but they advanced hundreds of miles and stretched the logistics supply line very long, which would increase the difficulty of their attack. One was rising and the other was not without hope of defending the defense line.

In the past two years, Zhao State has successively increased its troops to Wei State by about 10,000, which has brought the Zhao army under Zhou Changshou's jurisdiction to 15,000. However, Zhou Changshou knew that the 10,000 people later were also those in the court who sympathized with him to win the final reinforcements for him. Zhao Qi controlled the government and never liked him. It's a pity that he had defeated in Yuyang, otherwise how could the situation collapse to the point where he is now?

"Handan hasn't heard back yet?" Although he knew there wasn't much hope, Zhou Changshou still looked up and asked his staff, "We need reinforcements, food and grass, and weapons."

Mu Liao shook his head in embarrassment, "There is no reply, General, I'm afraid there is no hope for any side."

Zhou Changshou spat heavily on the ground in anger, "Zhao Qi was short-sighted, and he didn't think about it. If the situation here collapsed, can our Zhao State be safe? Wei State is a barrier for our Great Zhao State. As long as Wei State still exists, it can restrain the Qin people's offensive. Why can't Zhao Qi see this?"

"It's not that Zhao Qi can't see this, he just doesn't like the general!" Mu Liao sighed: "If it weren't for the general who really could support the overall situation, he would have withdrawn the general long ago."

"Where are the people of Wei?"

"The King of Wei was also frightened. He recruited troops again across the country, but even if he recruited people, what use can these new recruits be in front of the Qin army? General, in the next battle, I am afraid that our Zhao army will have to go barely to fight against the Qin army."

Zhou Changshou sighed and said, "There is really no good news!"

"No, there is still one good news." Mu Liao suddenly said: "The people of Wei have already asked for help from the Eastern Army. I heard that Gao Yuan, the Emperor's Office, had agreed to go out. As long as the Emperor's Army was dispatched, with the combat effectiveness of the Emperor's Army, the precarious situation in front of him will inevitably stabilize the precarious situation."

"The army of the Eastern Expedition Army in Tianhe is insufficient, how many troops can be drawn to help us?" Zhou Changshou said lightly, his face seemed calm, but his heart was filled with ups and downs. If possible, he would never hope that the person who came to solve his current dilemma was the army of the Eastern Expedition Army. Isn't it because he fell to this point? For a moment, he was really mixed with emotion.

"No matter how many soldiers and horses are, as long as they move, they will inevitably restrain the Qin army. In this way, we will have time to manage this second line of defense."

"What's the use of just operating the defense line? We need to counterattack and recover lost territory. Otherwise, if this continues, this defense line will also be lost. If we lose again, we will have to retreat to the main beam. At that time, everything will be too late." Zhou Changshou said angrily, "It's a pity that after the death of the Taiwei, we, Da Zhao, have no one with long-term vision."

The staff was speechless.

In the snow and ice, the navy blue military uniforms were on the wilderness, like a wriggling giant python, advancing towards Fengcheng. These were the five thousand troops of the East Army Naha, and they were also the vanguard of the East Army's dispatch of troops this time.

Several war horses formed a small circle, slightly blocking some wind and snow. In the small circle, Naba squatted on the ground, with a military map spread out on his knees.

"We are in Baishaping now. We are in Yesan Pass further. After leaving Yesan Pass, we arrive at our destination this time, Fengcheng! Commander, there are nearly a hundred miles of land. It's not too early. If we move forward, we won't find a good campsite. Let's just rest here for a night and set off tomorrow!" A general shouted.

Naba touched his stubborn beard, and there were ice chips on it. He looked up at the wind and snow and nodded, "Anyway, I can't get to the Wild Secretariat today, so I'll camp here and rest for one night. Tomorrow we will try to rush to the tea shop. We will attack Fengcheng in three days."

"The garrison in Fengcheng is said to be a Korean army, and its combat effectiveness is very limited. That is not just a battle!" Another general smiled relaxedly.

The Han people were weak and had basically no resistance in the war with Qin. They were beaten to the point of falling into the water and destroyed the country in a very short time. Faced with the army composed of such people, the soldiers in the East Envoy Army, who had always been powerful, naturally did not take them seriously.

"General, we have to seize the time. I heard that the Donghu Cavalry Division came very quickly, so don't wait for them to come and steal our credit."

"Yes, these Donghu people come faster than infantry generals! If these Donghu people rob me of credit, where will we put our faces!"

"Okay, OK, I understand, the Donghu people can't take away our credit." Naba waved his hand, "Let your brothers have a good rest first."
