Yan Qing has not fought as many battles as King Zhao, and is not as good as King Zhao in terms of experience, but his talent is higher than King Zhao. Moreover, Yan Qing has been exposed to the famous generals of the three generations of the Yan family since he was a child. Apart from being on fewer battlefields than King Zhao, Yan Qing is not the best at all.
Not worse than King Zhao.
Eighty thousand energetic troops and horses faced Zhao Wang's hundreds of thousands exhausted troops and horses. It was hard to say who would win and who would lose. At least Yan Qing was not afraid at all.
King Zhao is not afraid. If he really wants to fight Yan Qingshi, can they lose if they fight each other? But...
The current situation is that Yan Qingyi doesn't want to fight with them at all. Yan Qing's goal is clear, he just wants to steal King Zhao's food and grass.
King Zhao had a lot of food and grass on hand, plus the gold, silver and jewelry, which required tens of thousands of people to guard him along the way to ensure that the baggage would not be left behind. This was a huge burden for the northwest army.
It’s not that King Zhao is short-sighted or greedy, it’s just that King Zhao’s foundation is too weak. Qin Jiyan has the support of the entire country behind him, so what does he have?
He originally didn't want to rebel so early. Even if he rebelled, he would have to drag King Zhou in. He had troops in the northwest, and King Zhou had grain and silver in Jiangnan. If their brothers wanted to join forces, the country of Da Qin would not belong to them.
At that time, the two brothers conquered the country and divided the rivers to rule. One was proclaimed emperor in the north and the other was proclaimed emperor in the south. I don't know how good it would be. But the king of Zhou was timid and didn't trust him.
King Zhao could understand King Zhou's distrust. He did have the idea of killing King Zhou afterwards and proclaiming himself emperor in one fell swoop. But that time was still far away. The right way was for the two brothers to work together to conquer the country.
well……
Thinking of King Zhou, King Zhao couldn't help but sigh. King Zhao knew very well that things turned out like this because he and King Zhou didn't trust each other. If there was a little foundation of trust between them, they would have been able to truly cooperate a long time ago
How could it be like now, the two of them were on guard against each other, but gave Qin Jiyan a chance.
Although King Zhao stayed up all night, he was in very good spirits at this time. While commanding the army to set up formations, he also asked people to take care of the baggage, and he must keep this batch of food and grass no matter what.
"Tee, Tee, Tee..." Like the mountains and rivers shaking, a burst of horse hoofbeats resounded. Hearing this sound, King Zhao knew that the opponent was mainly cavalry, and their number was definitely not less than 30,000.
Thirty thousand cavalry. Qin Jiyan was really generous. Did he send out all the cavalry in his hands?
"Fight with all your strength and set up an ambush!" The cavalry in the northwest is the best cavalry in the Qin Dynasty, but...
No matter how good the cavalry is, they will not be able to show their strength when faced with tired horses. Now they can only rely on infantry to fight against Yan Qing's cavalry.
"With shields up, they must not be allowed to approach the baggage." Yan Qing's troops and horses were getting closer and closer, and King Zhao's orders were issued one after another.
When Yan Qing arrived with 80,000 troops, King Zhao's side was already well guarded. Before Yan Qing's troops could stop, King Zhao gave an order and ordered the army to charge...
"Kill!" With the cry of the northwest army, a life and death battle began.
Yan Qing didn't have a trace of fear. He rode his war horse without pausing for a moment. Facing the rushing northwest army, Yan Qing rushed straight forward. When he picked up the knife in his hand, a bloody human head fell out.
The battlefield is full of soldiers from Great Qin. They were once colleagues, but at this moment they are enemies. Either you die or I live!
Yan Qing fought with King Zhao's main force and held most of King Zhao's troops. Cheng Huan and his friends led a team of troops to break through the heavy defensive line.
After King Zhao knew Qin Jiyan's purpose, he dispatched a large number of soldiers and horses to guard the food and grass. It was not easy for Cheng Huan and his party to break through the defense line. Take the shields in front of them as an example. It was not easy to break through them.
It's an easy thing, but...
They brought Tang Wanjin, and everything became different!
Tang Wanjin was behind him. He saw Cheng Huan and the others fighting for a long time, but they couldn't break through the defense line. He said in disgust: "You are really useless, I will do it!"
When Cheng Huan and others heard this, they almost vomited blood out of anger.
They still call it useless?
But it turned out that they were useless. After fighting for a long time, they couldn't break through the defense line. Tang Wanjin stepped forward and knocked away the shield in front of him and the people behind him with one punch.
I'm going to...
Cheng Huan and others' jaws almost dropped.
Before Mingming set off, Sister Qiancheng also told them that Little Tang was sick and very weak, so they should take more care of him and not let him get tired. They were still complacent, thinking that they could feel proud in front of Little Tang, but...
…
They were hit hard again.
Even if he is seriously injured, Little Tang doesn't need their care. On the contrary, they need Little Tang to protect him.
"Tang Wanjin? How is that possible?" Not to mention Cheng Huan, even King Zhao was dumbfounded.
He clearly saw that Tang Wanjin was seriously injured, his head was hit by a boulder and he was bleeding, and his body was penetrated by a spear. Even if he was not dead, he would still be disabled. Even if he was not disabled, he would not be able to appear on the battlefield alive and kicking in less than three days.
.
"Monster, this is a monster. He is not a human being. Ji Yan actually uses monsters!" Many people will demonize people and things they cannot understand, and King Zhao is no exception.
"You are the monster." Tang Wanjin had sharp ears. When he heard this, he glared at King Zhao fiercely. Then he turned his anger into strength and pushed the people in front of him into a ball, punching them one by one.
Flying around...
"Brother Tang is mighty, beat them to death." Cheng Huan and the others were not affected by King Zhao's words at all, and followed Tang Wanjin with excitement on their faces to take advantage.
With Tang Wanjin clearing the way in front, Cheng Huan and the others broke through the defense line set up by King Zhao with almost zero sacrifice, and approached the grain truck step by step.
"Everyone, please be careful. You want grain and grass, but not gold, silver, and jewelry. Take them all away as much as possible." Cheng Huan saw the carts of grain and grass and quickly ordered the soldiers behind him.
During this expedition, Yan Qing gave him a temporary small official position, and he also had about 10,000 people available for him. Of course, this was only temporary, and this right would be gone after he returned. If he wanted to have real power, he would need to establish another official position.
Military merit.
"Stop them!" King Zhao saw that Cheng Huan and the others were about to attack the grain and grass, so he immediately sent troops and horses over. How could Yan Qing give him a chance, "Your opponent is me!"
Yan Qing immediately adjusted the battle plan and stopped King Zhao's troops, preventing him from freeing up his hands to assist the people guarding the food and grass.
You Yanqing bought them time, Cheng Huan and his party moved more smoothly, and soon began to carry food and grass back.
Seeing that cartloads of his grain and grass were being pushed away, King Zhao was angry and anxious. He immediately dispatched a team of troops from the center wing and asked them to intercept Cheng Huan and others, making sure to keep the grain and grass behind.
While the fight between Yan Qing and King Zhao was in full swing, Feng Yao finally received the order to lead troops to the border between Xihu and Daqin...
Xihu officially declared war on Daqin!
