Time is like running water, it will never come back, and it will be mid-May in the blink of an eye.
During this time in history, Wei Wuji had led the five-nation coalition to defeat the Qin army led by Meng Ao. After the news reached Xianyang of the Qin State, King Zhuangxiang of Qin Ying Zichu died within two days.
Although Ying Zichu has lost a lot of fun in his life today, he is still living well.
Cheng Qiao's life returned to its former peace. He had classes in the morning, practiced in the afternoon, visited Ying Zheng's house in his spare time, and stayed with Mrs. Han, Queen Mother Xia, Ying Zichu and others. His life was plain but not boring.
The lake in the world may seem calm, but in fact, there are undercurrents surging deep in the lake. Qin's military generals racked their brains to select the best battlefield and two backup battlefields, and the troops were mobilized to the front line in an orderly manner.
The six countries are not at peace either.
Wei Wuji's injuries were treated jointly by various people from all over the world. After a month and a half, he basically recovered as before, but there are still some sequelae, that is, every time it is rainy and thunderous, his heart will throb from time to time and he will feel weak. .
The armies of the three kingdoms of Han, Zhao and Wei have already deployed their elite troops to station at the northern and southern borders of Wei. They can join forces at any time. The elite troops of Yan and Chu have all left the border and marched towards their predetermined positions.
After learning that Lord Xinling Wei Wuji had basically recovered from his injuries, the armies of Yan and Chu accelerated their march.
At the end of May, the armies of Yan and Chu merged with the armies of Han, Zhao and Wei. The total number of elite troops was 500,000. They were known to the outside world as a million-strong army. They were mighty and menacing!
As Lu Buwei expected, Qi had no intention of participating and just stood aside to watch the show.
Of course, it is not that there are no knowledgeable people in Qi State, but with Hou Sheng, the prime minister who can compete with Zhao Guo and Guo Kai, and Qi Wangjian himself is not very willing to participate, the thin arms of knowledgeable people I can't hold my thighs at all.
Although the Allied Forces were powerful, the Qin State was not intimidated. When the ministers learned that the Allied Forces of the Five Nations dared to launch an attack, they did not give up at all. Most of them clamored to give the Allied Forces of the Five Nations an unforgettable color. have a look.
Other opinions could not make any waves at all, and were drowned by the huge wave of general trends.
Although King Qin Yingzichu was a little worried about a big defeat, on the surface he was not timid at all. He directly transferred 200,000 elite troops to Hanguguan, of which 100,000 were given to Meng Ao, forming a main force of 300,000. The best of the ten thousand elites were given to Wang Jian as a partial teacher.
In addition, there are more than 100,000 troops marching towards Hangu Pass in a steady stream. Of these 100,000 troops, 50,000 will be supplemented by Wang Jian, and tens of thousands of troops will join the garrison at Hangu Pass. Ensure that the most important Hangu Pass will not be lost!
Now that the Qin State is empty of troops, once Hangu Pass is lost, the fun will be great, and the country may be destroyed...
In order to ensure the victory of this war and to ensure that even if the battle was defeated, the losses would not be too great. In addition to defending the wolves in the north, the Chu Kingdom in the south, and the Qiang and Hu troops in the west, Ying Zichu mobilized all the troops he could. He was transferred to the East.
The rear of the Qin Kingdom had settled down as early as the period of Empress Dowager Mi Yue. Mi Yue used her beauty to seduce King Yiqu, gave birth to two sons for him, and deceived the unsuspecting King Yiqu into the Qin Palace and killed him. .
In the end, he used force and his own son to incorporate all of King Yiqu's territory into the Qin State, and completely stabilized the rear area. However, the necessary deterrence force must still be retained. It is not just talk about Yi Di being awe-inspiring and unethical.
This mobilization ability of the Qin State is much stronger than that of the six Shandong countries. There is no imperial power in the Qin State, and the royal power does not go to the countryside. The strong mobilization ability can be directly implemented on everyone in every settlement.
It can be said that during this war, except for a small number of people in the entire Qin State, no matter whether it was a city or a village, no matter whether it was a man, a woman or a child, everyone had a corresponding task.
Adult men who have not joined the army are responsible for transporting food, grass and ordnance. The old, weak, women and children do what they can at home, such as making military shoes and socks, collecting firewood, fodder, etc.
Long dragons formed on every official road to the east of Qin State, transporting troops, grain, grass and weapons to the front line day and night...
A very large-scale war, the entire Qin State basically mobilized the whole country.
In addition to its powerful army, what the Qin State feared the six countries most was its perverted mobilization ability. Compared with the unified dynasty, it was no less than a unified dynasty. It can be said that it brought the national power to the extreme!
…
On the battlefield in the east, Meng Ao directly led the main force of the Qin army into a head-on confrontation with the coalition forces led by Wei Wuji, to test the quality of Wei Wuji and the coalition forces.
Wei Wuji is worthy of being the only handsome man among the Six Kingdoms. Handsomeness here refers not only to military ability, but also to political ability.
The military talents of the famous generals of the Six Kingdoms are not necessarily worse than that of Wei Wuji. The military talents of peerless famous generals like Li Mu are even stronger than those of Wei Wuji. However, Li Mu and others could not completely convince the coalition generals and could not twist the coalition forces into a single rope.
This is related to Wei Wuji's background, reputation, prestige, deeds, ability to deal with people, qualified political literacy and other comprehensive qualities.
All of this formed the unique personality charm of Xinling Lord Wei Wuji, which allowed generals from other countries to cooperate with Wei Wuji sincerely, without deliberately causing trouble, and without violating the rules.
It is worth mentioning that the troops dispatched by South Korea this time include Ji Wuye, Bai Yifei and others.
The allied forces twisted into a rope were indeed difficult to deal with. Wei Wuji, with the assistance of famous generals from various countries, brought out the characteristics of the five-nation coalition armies. For example, Wei had the strongest infantry, Zhao had the strongest cavalry, and South Korea had the strongest bows.
Jinnu is the most powerful, Yan's army is the most tenacious, and Chu's army is the most comprehensive.
Although South Korea is the younger brother among the Seven Kingdoms, it once earned the name of "Powerful Korea" by relying on the power of Yiyang Iron Mountain, and gained the reputation of "all the strongest bows and crossbows in the world come from South Korea".
Nowadays, although Yiyang has been lost and its heritage has been greatly reduced, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, so it still has some heritage.
Therefore, the main force of the Qin army led by Meng Ao had a head-on confrontation with the coalition forces. Not only did they not get any advantage, they also suffered a big loss. Fortunately, with the partial division led by Wang Jian threatening the flank, the coalition forces did not dare to use all their strength to bite them.
This allowed Meng Ao to calmly lead his army to retreat.
Although the Qin army suffered a heavy loss, it was a blessing in disguise.
Because of the boring losses, the more radical generals in the Qin army quickly calmed down and did not dare to underestimate the Five Nations Allied Forces. The more prudent generals led by the number two Wang Jian immediately took the opportunity to make suggestions.
Coupled with Ying Zichu and Lu Buwei's warning in advance, Meng Ao finally decided not to insist on fighting with the coalition forces in the field and changed his war strategy.
Although some generals were unwilling to accept it and did not think that the Qin army, which was letting go and going all out, was no match for the Five Nations Alliance, the No. 1 and No. 2 figures in the army reached an agreement, and with the agreement and warnings of the King of Qin and the Prime Minister,
I had to restrain my unwillingness and act strictly according to the backup plan.
At this point, the breeze that Cheng Qiao was flapping as a butterfly finally turned into a strong wind. I don’t know what it will do to the original appearance of the fourth joint expedition against Qin...
The so-called backup plan is to do everything possible to lead the coalition forces to the best battlefield discussed by the military generals for a decisive battle. It is a battlefield with a very special terrain. You can advance and attack, retreat and defend. They are each other's horns and support each other.
According to the agreement between the military generals, Ying Zichu and Lu Buwei, if the main force of the Qin army confronts the coalition forces head-on and gains an advantage and takes advantage, then the normal plan will be used against Maimang and the backup plan will not be launched.
It is a pity that reality has dealt a blow to the increasingly arrogant generals of the Qin army. When the coalition forces were held back by partial divisions and the strength of both sides was roughly equal, the Qin army not only failed to take advantage, but suffered a heavy loss.
Today, a considerable part of the heritage of the Six Nations is still preserved. Civil servants and generals have many talents, military morale is not weak, and there is sufficient food, grass and weapons. It is too difficult to defeat the Five Nations Alliance head-on...
