In the fifteenth year of the Qin Dynasty, under Ying Wei's plan, the two countries Yan and Zhao fought on the border.

In the name of aiding Yan, Qin sent Wang Jian to lead an army to attack Yanyu.

At this time, the fierce battle between Yan and Zhao was in full swing. Qin State's massive attack on Zhao State was completely unexpected, so that this strategic location in the Taihang Mountains was captured by Wang Jian in less than half a month.

When Yanyu was defeated, the northwest direction of Handan lost its barrier, and Wang Jian could use this road to approach the capital of Zhao.

However, Wang Jian did not act rashly after capturing Yanyu. Instead, he followed the originally planned strategy and waited for a better time to come.

Just when Wang Jian captured the strategic location of Taihang Mountain, Qin general Huanjue also led his army to attack Hanyang to the north of Yan and Hanyang, and successfully captured it.

At the same time, Li Xin, who had been training in Yingchuan County for three years, also obeyed the imperial edict and led part of the Pingyang heavy armor army from Nanyang in old Korea to capture Anyang, where Yeyi belonged.

From then on, it only took less than a month for the Qin army to advance to the south of Handan. It was only separated from Handan, the capital of Zhao, by a Zhang River and a few cities.

The reason why the Qin army was so overwhelming and pushed the army to the vicinity of Handan in more than a month was that it occupied several major points.

First, under the instigation of Chang'an Jun Ying Wei, the two countries Yan and Zhao, who had been feuding for hundreds of years, started a war.

This war has pinned down part of the main force of the Zhao State in the direction of the Yan State border in the northeast. This part of the main force of the Zhao Army has to fight the Yan State and is temporarily unable to get away.

Secondly, although the Zhao State expected that the Qin State would take the initiative to cooperate with the Yan State to attack, what the Zhao State government and the public did not expect was that the Qin State would fight so decisively and send troops on such a large scale, completely with the attitude of destroying the country.

The final reason was that South Korea was destroyed. The strategic location of South Korea was already owned by Qin, and the obstacles to Qin's eastward march were resolved. This was also the credit of Lord Chang'an.

In this way, when Qin sends troops, it can attack from the original territory of South Korea, so that it can put pressure on Zhao in different directions at the same time.

This made Zhao, whose military strength was already stretched thin, for a time, the defense line was like a sieve. It was difficult to resist, and the city was defeated one after another, faster than Wu Anjun's attack.

After all, the Qin State when Bai Qi was still there was not as big as it is now, and Zhao State did not have to defend such a large line of defense. In addition, Lian Po was stubbornly defensive and did not attack, which was the reason why Bai Qi's army was stopped.

But today's Qin State is completely different. Three hundred thousand Qin troops arrived near Handan as if they were descending from the sky.

But here, the Qin army could no longer advance. Zhao finally realized that 200,000 Zhao troops blocked the Qin army's path forward.

Not many years after the Battle of Changping, most of the Zhao people had a deep hatred for the Qin people. Four hundred thousand people were killed in the trap, so many relatives and friends of the Zhao people died in the Battle of Changping.

Therefore, the 200,000 Zhao troops tried their best to stop them. Even the elite soldiers of the Qin State were unable to break through the defense line in a short time and completely reach Handan.

Wang Jian's head hurt when he saw this scene. There was no way to break the situation quickly. Qin and Zhao were temporarily in a stalemate here.

Of course, it is impossible for the Qin army to retreat. They have been preparing Qin for many years just for this moment. A steady stream of food and grass is sent from all over the Qin State.

Although the battle line was as long as the Battle of Changping, Korea was destroyed at this time, and a lot of grain and grass could travel through Korean waterways, so the consumption of grain and grass was not as wasteful as before.

Secondly, the Qin State has become more and more powerful since the Changping War, while the Zhao State has continued to decline. This protracted war is at least much easier than the Changping War.

You must know that in the Battle of Changping, the King of Qin even sent all men over the age of fifteen in Hanoi to the front line. You can know how tragic that year was.

……

Qin State, Xianyang Palace, Ying Zheng received the battle report from the front and was discussing with Ying Wei

"Our Qin army was unstoppable along the way. Under the leadership of General Wang, it easily captured the important strategic location of Qianyu. Why is Brother Wang still looking so sad?"

Ying Wei saw Ying Zheng's frown and said.

Ying Zheng put down the battle report, shook his head, pressed his forehead and said:"Third brother, don't bully me because I don't understand military affairs."

"At this time, it seems that our country, Qin, has a great advantage, but in fact, this war has just begun." (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"Although the Yan State has involved part of the main force of the Zhao army, the Zhao State still has enough troops to confront our Qin State."

"Our Qin State also needs to guard against the Chu and Wei States, and it is impossible to mobilize the whole country to attack the Zhao State. Whether these 300,000 Qin troops can really capture the Zhao State, I am not absolutely sure."

If the Qin State raises all its troops at this time, it is estimated that it can send more than 600,000 troops. This 600,000 army is so powerful that it is possible to directly destroy the Zhao State.

But now it is not a one-on-one duel between the Qin State and the Zhao State. There were several other countries watching eagerly, so it was impossible for Qin to send so many troops, so it could only use these 300,000 to fight Zhao.

Seeing that Ying Zheng also knew military affairs, Ying Wei stopped comforting him and said the same:" My younger brother is also worried at this time, Zhao Guo is the hardest bone to crack. Ying

Zheng paced back and forth for two steps. He pointed to the lower reaches of the Zhang River and said,"Huan Jue wants to join forces with Li Xin and cross the river from the lower reaches of the Zhang River to attack Pingyang, thus threatening the Zhao army's flanks and rear.""

"Third brother, what do you think?"

After Ying Wei heard Ying Zheng's words, his first thought was whether Ying Zheng would take this opportunity to take back the military power from himself.

After all, after joining the army, Huan Jue's experience must be led by him. Between the two armies, Li Xin is likely to lose power.

Ying Wei shook his head quickly. He sighed in his heart, no wonder many people in history made choices that were wrong and stupid in the eyes of later generations.

For example, confiscating some outstanding leaders. The general's military power is lost, and he may even find ways to kill, or betray the soldiers who fought to the death for his own power.

This kind of thing is just a sentence in the history books, and everyone will only laugh at it.

But when you are really in this position , in fact, people will think so subconsciously.

Because it involves your own safety, if you (Li Zhao) have to bet on other people's character, then you are putting your life at the knife's edge of others, and everyone will be a knife. I For the sake of justice.

All those in power will end up miserable if they lose their power.[]

However, Ying Wei felt that even if Ying Zheng really had this idea, he would not do it at this time. Ying Zheng was a talented and strategic emperor, and the most important thing to him was to unify the world, not to fight for power internally.

Thinking of this, Ying Wei said decisively:"This plan is feasible, let General Huanjue act according to the situation."

After all, although Ying Wei is now the principal, he will not do micro-manipulation commands such as moving the front-line machine guns five meters.

Ying Zheng nodded. After getting Ying Wei's approval, he would discuss with other staff and military attachés to brainstorm the possibility of this trip.

What Ying Wei was thinking about at this moment was that he didn't know when Li Mu would take action.

If Li Mu still prevents Qin from advancing as in the official history, then he will have to bring the God of War online..
