Chapter 52
The war between Yan and Zhao countries rose again, and fierce battles were fought in the Shangcheng area. General Li Mu of Zhao State led an army of 50,000 to support him. The news was immediately transmitted between the fast horses at the same speed as the wind, and soon reached the hands of the people they needed.
At the junction of Shu and Wei, Wang Jian, the Qin general who marched here quickly read the information in his hand and returned it to another person beside him. Then he laughed to the sky.
"Wuan Jun is indeed as expected. The King of Zhao sent out Li Mu. In this way, there will be no more powerful generals in Longcheng. Hahaha!"
The person who reached out to receive the secret report smiled faintly, and a faint pride flashed in his eyes. The entire combat plan was planned and arranged by Wei Wuzi, who was in charge of Feng'an. It was very careful and there would be no major accidents. The destruction of Zhao and the sharing of its land was just a matter of time. As one of the main persons in charge of the Qin spy system, he personally followed the army to fight, and was the executor of Wei Wuzi's orders.
"General Wang, Li Mu is not worthy of attention. But in order to kill Longcheng with one blow, Wu'an Jun used the trick of diversion of tigers and leaving the mountain to let him go to the upper city. This is the best condition for General Wang! Haha! It's a pity that Zhao State said that there were several famous generals under Chu Lie's command, but they were all destroyed... At that time, we will see what hero Chu Lie can show off!"
The man in gray robe smiled coldly. His name is Xuanjiu, who is the right-hand assistant to Wu Anjun, the Qin State's plot leader. Although Xuanjiu is in the army, he has a special status and does not have to obey Wang Jian's order. Moreover, Wang Jian's marching has to rely on his source of information.
Hearing the contempt in Xuanjiu's breath, Wang Jian was still smiling, but he glanced at him casually, feeling a little unhappy. In any case, King Zhao and Chulie were recognized as heroes of the times. He led the soldiers of Zhao to resist the Hu cavalry for decades, and was admired by the world for his iron-blooded and heroic spirit. The famous veterans in the Zhao army, such as Zheng Liancheng, Gou Wuxiu and others, were all famous in battles. Although they were all old and seriously injured, they no longer led the army. However, their character was always admirable. Even as a general of the enemy country, Wang Jian never insulted.
For famous generals, respectable opponents can never be killed or killed on the battlefield, but they will never be bothered to slander or comment in private. Of course, the war is imminent, but he will not reveal this emotion.
"Since the King of Yan has sent troops as agreed, we must speed up the action. After the army of Qin and Wei countries began to launch, please arrange people as soon as possible to supervise the army of Dongqi and Southern Han. The five countries attacked Zhao, so be sure not to let them drag their backs!"
"Please rest assured to General Wang. Wu'an Jun has already sent someone to spread the word. I expected that the generals of Qi and Nanhan would not dare to delay. In case of precaution, I will arrange for someone to go there immediately."
"There is another point, please pay attention to Mr. Xuan. The so-called military force is very fast. Before officially launching a raid on Longcheng, you must try your best to block the news. You must not let King Zhao Chulie be prepared in advance!"
Wang Jian made his final instructions. Xuan Jiu, who was in charge of the military's intelligence system, played with a short sword in his hand, and his cruel smile reflected on the sword's edge.
"General Wang is just ready to win the battle. You don't have to worry about these messy things at all. My spy soldiers from the Qin Dynasty have already blocked the news. Now let the general know that we have joined forces with the Wei people in the past few days and launched a major operation. Wei, Zhao's scouts and secret spies west of the Zhao border have been almost wiped out. Even if there are one or two fish that have escaped the net, it is more difficult to pass the blockade line than climbing to the sky!"
Wang Jian was relieved when he heard what he said so surely. Although this guy named Xuanjiu was a little rampant, the Qin spy deceased soldier under his command was indeed well-known and very powerful. He said that he would not let Longcheng know the news in advance, so he must have a thorough arrangement and full confidence.
As one of the eight famous generals of Qin, Wang Jian had a rich combat experience. He was determined to win the battle to destroy the country. On the one hand, it was because of the responsibility of commanding more than 80,000 elite Qin soldiers and the honor of being famous generals, so he could not make any mistakes. On the other hand, it was for the fundamental interests of the Wang family.
The Wang brothers and the family behind them have always been trusted by the King of Qin. But in recent years, the rapid rise of another big family, the Meng family, has made Wang Jian feel a deep sense of crisis. Although the veteran Meng Ao is old, the rising stars Meng Jun and Meng Wu are extremely talented. They have already become famous generals at the age of 30, which is extremely powerful.
Originally, there was nothing. Although the Meng family was powerful and the Wang family was not weak. But now Wang Li suddenly died, which made Wang Jian feel a little lonely. Other Wang family members were unlikely to have great talents in a short period of time, let alone famous generals. If the Wang family could not keep up with his footsteps in the ambitious Qin King's great cause, the future would be really worrying.
If you want to achieve honor and glory in Qin, military merits on the battlefield are undoubtedly the most important means. Therefore, Wang Jian made up his mind to achieve great achievements this time. Climbing Longcheng first and capturing King Zhao by hand is his ultimate goal!
This goal is not his arrogant imagination, but something that is very sure to achieve. According to the intelligence over the years, it can be inferred that the total army of Zhao State has exceeded 200,000, and the warriors among them have to be greatly reduced. In addition, the defenders who are defending the four borders, the troops that can be mobilized by the King of Zhao in Longcheng will definitely exceed 80,000. After the Yan State launched the Battle of Shangcheng, General Li Mu of Zhao State took away another 50,000 elite troops, that is, the remaining guard forces in Longcheng, plus the elderly, weak, sick and disabled, are only more than 30,000. Such a force is simply vulnerable to the 200,000 troops of the Five-Nation Alliance. When the army reaches the Japanese, it will surely win!
The premise of all this is to ensure the top secret of the action. Only when the Thunder Thunder suddenly strikes can the effect of repeated planning be achieved. Destroying Zhao and Capture the King is only in one fell swoop!
At this moment, in a situation where you are sure to win, what Wang Jian is most worried about is no longer the success or failure of the war, but the hope that King Zhao and Chulie will not die early! After all, on the day of success, the weight of the living King Zhao and the dead King Zhao are very different.
"The entire army is ready to enter the State of Wei! Let's continue to follow the guidance of the Wei State's guide. No one in the friendly country is allowed to cause trouble. Otherwise, it will be missed and killed without any chance!"
Wang Jian issued a strict general order. From here, according to the marching route discussed with the Wei State in advance, the Qin army could enter the Zhao State from the northwest direction at the junction of Wei and Zhao State in less than three days. At that time, thousands of horses galloped, drove straight into Longcheng, and arrived in just one day and one night!
The Great Qin cavalry, who had traveled hundreds of miles, finally entered the territory of Wei. Wherever they passed, the dust rolled and the wind stormed. At the same time, the generals of the Great Wei also rode on war horses and commanded the gathered Wei Wushu, the powerful soldiers of the world, and began their journey. The two armies were divided into two directions, and rushed straight to Zhao like two long dragons.
Under the heavy sky, there is no trace of sunshine. On the dozens of miles of sand dunes at the junction of Wei and Zhao, green grass is growing quietly. There are many signs of burning in the woods and bushes far and near. Occasionally, corpses that have not been buried and blood that have solidified and blackened.
The boy named Blue Bird had been staying in the sand for a day and a night, but he still didn't wait for a chance to break through this area. Although the sand dunes that cost dozens of miles in front of him were full of vitality in the spring breeze, he saw endless murderous intent in the boy's squinting eyes!
The identity of Blue Bird is just an ordinary boy. But at this moment, he is no longer ordinary. Because he shoulders a heavy responsibility. He must work hard to complete the things assigned by the dead.
Three days ago, the young young bird came back from the north with the family caravan and returned to Zhao State through the Wei-Zhao border, but unexpectedly, it was blocked by a large number of unidentified people for no reason, and brought their group of twenty or thirty people and even the goods to a deserted manor not far away, and all of them were taken into custody.
They were all merchants from Zhao State, and they had been to and from this passage many times, and this situation had never happened. Looking at the detainees outside with bad faces and flashing swords, everyone was locked in the dark, and they couldn't help but talk quietly, and everyone was filled with panic. Later, after discussion, they unanimously decided to escape overnight in the second half of the night. They had estimated the distance in advance, and it was still dozens of miles away from Zhao State. As long as they were not discovered before dawn, everyone would be safe within the patrol range of Zhao State's army.
The people who were guarding them in the middle of the night really relaxed. So, the merchants of Zhao State sneaked out with their own goods and ran more than ten miles away in one breath. However, just as they were secretly glad, bad luck suddenly came!
A sword light reflected the morning light in the sky appeared around, and then without saying a word, the cruel killing began. The blue bird was pushed away by the adults in the clan. After he saw in horror, his eyes were full of blood.
