Two hundred and ninety-sixth three years of King Qin
Li Mu stared at the city in the distance, his eyes full of anger.
Li Mu has never fought such a frustrating battle. The soldiers under his command are mainly cavalry, which is really difficult to use in this mountainous area. Fortunately, he also has many infantry soldiers who are good at shooting. But the problem is that the Qin State
Their weapons are more advanced than before. The shooting range of their crossbows and strong bows is now higher than that of Zhao Jun. Although the gap may not be very big, when the gap in numbers appears, Zhao Jun's archers will have no choice but to be killed.
Deadly suppression.
The Qin State has at least tens of thousands of archers, and each of these people can carry a spare crossbow and bow. In terms of arrows, the Qin State is also fully prepared, but it keeps shooting without stopping, and Zhao
On the Zhao State's side, the shooting range is not as good as the opponent's, the number is not as good as the opponent's, and the arrows are even more insufficient... This makes the Zhao State's siege a very difficult task. There is no way to get close and suppress the Qin State's archers.
Lian Po was like this. The army was suppressed by the shooters, so he could only send chariots to cut, and no longer gave Qin a chance to shoot Zhao soldiers. Therefore, Li Mu chose to fight in the field. On such unfavorable terrain, the chariots and chariots of both sides
The cavalry couldn't play a big role, but it was more acceptable than siege. But Li Mu soon discovered that even in field battles and close combats, the opponent's advantage was huge.
From weapons and equipment to the organizational strength of the army, even if Li Mu cuts them apart, the Qin people can fight in small units without collapse. Moreover, these generals of the Qin State are very cautious and
Unlike the Hu people who were blind and could hardly find any flaws. The gaps in these aspects could not be made up by the generals. Li Mu did beat the Qin people hard, but it was of no use. The Qin people just pushed forward steadily and forced Li Mu.
Backing away continuously.
The Qin people hardly needed any strategy, nor did they want to make surprise attacks or ambushes. They just advanced slowly and nibbled away bit by bit. At this moment, Li Mu seemed to truly understand the "gap in national strength" that Zhao Kuo once said.
, when they followed Zhao Kuo to fight in Changping, Zhao Kuo once told Li Mu that he could not defeat the enemy even if he replaced Lian Po. This was not because of the general, but because of the gap in national strength.
Because of the huge gap in national strength, even if Wang He was in Shangdang, Lian Po would be defeated in succession.
Li Mu finally felt this. Although he brought out the food from Yunzhong and Yanmen, the food could not last too long... and the Qin army moved faster than him and shot farther than him.
Their armor and shields were stronger than their own, and they had more food than their own... Just when Qin was about to enter the plains, a terrain favorable to Li Mu, the Qin people suddenly stopped attacking, which made Li Mu even more angry.
It seems that they know more than themselves.
The people of Qin knew about Zhao's situation in advance and made proper arrangements, but Zhao knew nothing about Qin. Li Mu didn't even know Meng Ao's true location!!
Qin stopped attacking, but Zhao had no way to regain the lost territory... King Zhao had no choice but to accept the defeat and ordered his troops to return to defend various places to prevent Qin from raiding again.
This war made young Li Mu ponder. How can we defeat Qin?
Food must be sufficient, and there must not be a big disadvantage in terms of military strength.,...Equipment must be improved, and sufficient weapons and ordnance must be available...While Li Mu was still thinking about these things, Meng Ao had already left with the main force.
He arrived in Jinyang, but he did not return directly to Xianyang. Instead, he rushed from Shangdang to the border of South Korea. According to Meng Ao's words, he was going to visit the King of Han.
When the King of Han heard the news that Meng Ao came to visit with one hundred thousand elites, he was also very excited. He simply took out five cities on the border, including Chenggao, as gifts to thank Meng Ao for his visit.
Ao thanked King Han for the gift and returned to Qin with his army. At this time, King Qin was already discussing the planning of the new territory with Lu Buwei.
"Taiyuan County can be established in Jinyang, Yuci and other places, and Sanchuan County can be established on the border of South Korea... In this way, Qin can attack Handan, Yanmen and other places through Taiyuan County in the future, or it can directly cut off Handan and Yanmen.
There are connections with Yanmen and other places in Yunzhong, and Sanchuan County can be directly used as a bridgehead against Wei and Chu. We can concentrate materials here and launch a large-scale attack on Wei and Chu..."
King Qin laughed and said, "I didn't expect that you already had your own plan." Lu Buwei shook his head and said, "These are Li Si's views. He told me..."
"Oh? Li Si? Why did he tell you this? Why didn't he come directly to meet me?"
Lu Buwei said: "Your Majesty, this young man is indeed very talented, but he also has a lot on his mind... If it were someone else, he would definitely hope to gain your attention and be reused and then use his talents. But he is different. He
But he wanted to get my attention... He took the initiative to get closer to me... I found that he only did his own thing, never offended anyone, and was not willing to make friends with anyone... He has great ambitions
Yes, I see, he took a fancy to my position."
King Qin laughed and asked, "It seems you hate him very much?"
"No, I admire him very much... I am not young anymore. If I am no longer here in the future, I recommend this Li Si to take over the position of prime minister. I know that you value Han Fei more. His talents and learning may not be as good as Han Fei's.
But he is more suitable for the position of prime minister than Han Fei..."
King Qin nodded thoughtfully and looked at the huge map on the wall. In this map, the area occupied by Qin had exceeded that of any other country. Looking at the two new areas that had just been added, King Qin was even more excited.
He couldn't help but straighten his waist and laugh. The new king had finally made a good start after ascending the throne. He stared at the map in front of him seriously and just asked: "Tell me, who should be next?"
"
"I heard that the King of Wei was incompetent and persecuted his own brother..."
"Hahaha, okay, let's take a rest for half a year and wait until next year to completely destroy Wei..."
.......
Zhao Kuo did not care about this war because his wife finally gave birth to another child for him. Finally, Zhao Kuo had a daughter. This made Zhao Kuo very happy. From the moment his daughter was born
From the beginning, Zhao Kuo smiled silly, hugged her, and never let go. Looking at the little life in his hands, it was so cute and petite. At that moment, Zhao Kuo swore to himself that he would always protect this little life.
Guy.
Zhao Kuo named her Shan.
I hope she can become a kind girl like her mother.
The little one was born chubby, with bulging cheeks, and cried very loudly. But the strange thing was that whenever Zhao Kuo held her, she stopped crying... Zhao Kuo held her,
I often walk around the courtyard without feeling tired. Zhao Zheng is the happiest. He was worried that his mother would have another brother. Of course, Zhao Kang and Cheng Yu are also very happy, but they are more
curious.
Zhao Kang, like Zhao Zheng when he was young, asked his father every day, when will his sister grow up?
Zhao Zheng would occasionally hold his sister, but Zhao Kang and Cheng Xi could not. They were still too young, and Zhao Kuo did not dare to let them hold him for fear of breaking them. The birth of the little one brought a lot of trouble to the family.
A lot of joy. Zhao Kuo was very fond of his daughter anyway. He held the little one all day long and told her stories, regardless of whether she could understand or not. Zhao Kuo felt as if his life had become more
I am fulfilled and have no regrets.
Zhao Zheng is not always at home. Sometimes he goes to the wild with Zhan, and sometimes he visits Han Fei. In recent days, he often visits Li Si, probably because his father admires Li Si.
Zhao Zheng was still young, so the visit was not to make friends, but to ask for advice. Zhao Zheng was good at listening to other people's teachings, and Li Si also gave him a lot of help.
Everyone still respects this successor of the empire very much.
Finally, Zhao Zheng even visited Lu Buwei, and Lu Buwei welcomed him very much. Moreover, he was one of the few people who did not treat Zhao Zheng as a child. The other ministers treated him as a child and let their children
Accompanying him to play, or just telling him something in the tone of an elder, only Lu Buwei would let Zhao Zheng sit in front of him and discuss the situation of the world in a very formal manner.
This made Zhao Zheng also have a good impression of Lu Buwei, and the two often talked about the future situation.
Lu Buwei said: "Qin does not need to rush to attack other countries. Today, Qin's people are gradually becoming richer, their household registrations are constantly increasing, their equipment is becoming more advanced, and the gap with the six countries is also constantly widening.
..At this time, if Qin can cultivate for a period of time and accumulate strength, when Qin starts to take action, the six countries will have no power to resist..."
Zhao Zheng has a different view on this.
When winter came again, Ge fell ill.
That day, he stood up in confusion and was about to feed the horse. He fell outside the manger. Mr. Zhao who was passing by yelled and hurriedly picked him up and carried him indoors.
When Zhao Kuo walked into the inner room, Ge was lying on the bed, unconscious... Zhao Kuo was trembling all over. He was speechless. Looking at Ge in front of him, he stretched out his hand and covered his head.
He held his face, took a deep breath, and then looked at Fu Zhao on the side, "Where is the doctor? Have you sent someone to call him?" Fu Zhao nodded, and then said: "Don't worry.
..There are still many famous doctors in Xianyang City..."
Zhao Kuo stood in front of Ge, just looking at him, breathing deeply, his eyes full of uneasiness.
Soon, several people walked into the room and met with Zhao Kuo. They were the medical officers in Xianyang. After meeting with Zhao Kuo, they began to observe the condition. After observing for a long time, an elderly doctor came to see him.
Zhao Kuo said, "He has caught a cold... Don't worry, it can be cured." Zhao Kuo breathed a sigh of relief, and several doctors began to make medicine. It took more than half an hour before they made the medicine.
The potion is ready.
Zhao Kuo held the medicine and sat next to Ge. Zhao Fu supported him and raised his head, and Zhao Kuo fed him the medicine little by little.
Mother Zhao supported Yi and rushed over. Mother Zhao was very worried and asked: "Ge? Is he okay?" Looking at his mother's pale face, Zhao Kuo could only stand up and said seriously: "Mother
"He's fine. You'd better take Yi back to rest. He's fine... He's already taking medicine..." Zhao Kuo spent a lot of effort to convince Zhao's mother to let her take Yi back to her heart.
room.
By the next day, Zhao Kuo was already desperate.
Unexpectedly, Ge opened his eyes.
This made Zhao Kuo couldn't help but shed tears. He sat next to Ge and just rubbed his eyes, "It's okay...it's okay." Although Ge woke up, he was still very weak and couldn't help but cry.
Unable to get up, Zhao Kuo personally gave him medicine and food according to the doctor's instructions, which made Ge very uncomfortable. He wanted to refuse several times, but Zhao Kuo did not give him a chance to refuse.
"I have never treated you as a guest, I have always treated you as my elder... Just rest in peace and recuperate... Get well soon."
Zhao Zheng and Zhao Kang also came several times. Zhao Kang didn't know what happened. He just kissed Ge. Zhao Zheng seemed a little worried. He already knew a lot of things. He was afraid of Ge Guild.
Leave yourself. Fortunately, Ge's health is gradually getting better, but Zhao Kuo doesn't dare to let him go out anymore. Ge sits on the bed, shaking his head and sighing from time to time. He has no way to take care of himself anymore.
There is no way for the horse to drive for Zhao Kuo again.
Zhao Kuo's guests also came one by one after hearing about Ge.
From Li Yu to Di, I have been here several times.
Especially Di, who rushed into the courtyard crying, frightening everyone.
The cold winter gradually passed, and the State of Qin also ushered in the third year of King Qin's rule. In this year, King Qin had already made preparations to destroy the State of Wei in one fell swoop. Lu Buwei did not agree with this matter. Lu Buwei still felt that Wei could be occupied.
Several cities in the country, and then ended the war. He believed that Qin should pay more attention to internal development. Now Qin is building canals and developing rapidly. Instead of rushing to destroy Wei, it is better to continue to develop domestic development.
The situation is great, wait until the army and horses are strong, and then send out troops to destroy the six countries.
If Qin is determined to destroy Wei, it will definitely cause panic among the six countries.
It's a pity that Qin's victory over Zhao greatly inspired King Qin. King Qin was very confident. Wei's national power was weak and there was no integrity. Generals like Li Mu had absolutely no way to stop Qin. He ignored
Following Lu Buwei's advice, he once again sent Meng Ao to lead Qin's army and concentrated it in Sanchuan County, preparing to send troops to destroy Wei.
The King of Wei's message has also been prepared.
In March of that year, Qin boldly launched a war against Wei.
The king of Wei was frightened and hurriedly asked the princes for help.
ps: King Qin thought of everything, but forgot... There was also a man named Wei Wuji in Wei State.
