Overlord of the late Qin Dynasty

Chapter 244
Zhang Nan and Gongsunye led [-] troops to Waihuang, while the remaining Qin army, led by Zhang Han, practiced continuously and waited for the decisive battle with the Chu army.

—————————————————————

Zhao, Handan County, She County.

Qin Jun was stopped by Zhao Jun here, because Zhang Er, Chen Yu and others knew that if She County could not be defended; then Zhao Guo would face the danger of subjugation here!Therefore, after Zhang Er's defeat, Chen Yu immediately led the [-] troops he had just recruited to join Zhang Er's troops.

Han Guang, the King of Yan in the north, knew that the Zhao army was being beaten back by the Qin army, and under the persuasion of his generals Zang Tu and Luan Bu, he agreed to send troops to assist Zhao in fighting against the Qin army.

Under the leadership of Zang Tu and Luan Bu, the 15 army of Yan State temporarily abandoned the past and came to aid Zhao State.

The joining of the 15 Yan army made Zhao Guojun and his ministers more determined to fight against the Qin army. You must know that the original Zhao Wangwuchen wanted to move the capital to temporarily avoid the edge of the Qin army.

Qin camp.

There have been no wars for several days, and the sergeants of the Northern Legion have begun to get used to the leisurely days of daily drills.

In the big tent, Wang Li summoned all the generals under his command.

"Everyone, let's pass it around!" Sitting on the commander's seat, Wang Li motioned Zuo Fei to pass a letter to the generals before saying.

Every general who got it showed an unbelievable expression on his face after reading it.

After a long time, all the generals in the tent finished watching.

"General! Is General Li You really alive?" Shejian looked at the crowd and asked, seeing that no one dared to speak out.

"My second brother's handwriting is very clear! This is the handwriting of my sworn brother, General Li Yuli!" Wang Li did not answer directly, but said tactfully.

After listening to Wang Li's words, She Jian nodded and already had the answer in his heart.And may also be shocked by the answer, so as not to say a word.

"General, do you want to seek refuge with Chu State?" Captain Zhou Lei asked Wang Li with his arms folded when he saw that She Jian was lost in thought.

"My eldest brother Xiang Yu and my second brother Li You both wrote letters, both to persuade this general to join forces. I don't know what to do!" Wang Li did not answer, but expressed his confusion.

"General! The world is not yet clear, and Zhang Han, the general in the south, is still fighting with Wei and Qi. If the general temporarily occupies the three counties of Shangdang, Taiyuan, and Hedong to observe the situation of the world. In this way, no matter if our Great Qin wins in the future ; or the victory of the six kingdoms in the Kanto region, and the world returns to the state of the Warring States. The general can also advance and retreat freely, or stand on his own, or vote for an enlightened lord. Wouldn't it be better?" Xu Fang, Wang Li's aide, after Wang Li finished talking about his confusion , then suggested.

Xu Fang's words made the generals in the tent feel a little unbelievable.

Wang Wu, Zhou Lei, and Guang Qing each looked at each other, then cupped their hands and said: "What Mr. Xu said is very reasonable! General!"

After the three of them finished speaking, many captains and school lieutenants in the tent agreed with Xu Fang's words like throwing bricks to attract jade.

Shejian just came back to his senses and looked at Zuo Fei and Yang Xiong.Seeing that both of them were a little moved, but they didn't dare to say a word because they couldn't get over the hurdle in their hearts.Seeing this, She Jian immediately got up and cupped his hands and said, "General! The current situation in the world is as chaotic as Mr. Xu said. In addition, no one can say whether it will be us, the Qin people, who will successfully suppress the restoration of the six kingdoms of the Kanto region, or whether the six kingdoms of the Kanto region will be restored." Standing in the world. Therefore, the last general implores the general to temporarily suspend the army. According to the three counties, wait and see the situation of the world!"

After Shejian made his statement, Yang Xiong, Zuofei and Zuofei looked at each other and then cupped their hands and said: "We are the same as General Shejian, and I am willing to ask the general to observe the situation of the world from the perspective of the three counties!"

After Yang Xiong and Zuo Fei expressed their views, the generals who had not indicated whether they supported it or not agreed with Xu Fang's suggestion and asked Wang Li to give an order.

Wang Li didn't want to do this at first, but his staff and subordinates all supported Xu Fang's strategy.In desperation, Wang Li sighed and nodded, "That's it! The army is temporarily occupying the three counties and watching the situation of the world."

"The general is wise!" Xu Fang immediately cupped his hands.

------------------

Outside Shexian County, the Yanzhao coalition army camp.

In the commander's tent, Zhang Er sits at the top, and on the left and right are the generals of the Yan army headed by Zang Tu and the generals of the Zhao army headed by Chen Yu.

"Wei Xiangguo Zhoushi Zhou Xiangguo wrote a letter, saying that Li You, who died in the battle of Sanchuan, has now appeared in the Chu army. He is now a minister of Chu and serves Chu Xiangyu!" Zhang Er saw that everyone in the tent looked at him suspiciously. I knew that they were wondering why I called all the generals, so I took the initiative to speak. "Wang Li, who confronts us, is the sworn brother of Chu Xiangyu and that Li Youzhi. The situation in the world is not yet clear, but it is recognized by the world that Chu is the leader of the six Kanto countries. Even Zhang Han If I dare not pull out that Chu Xiangyu's tiger beard, how shall I treat Wang Li?"

"In someone's opinion, if Wang Li is not defeated, then we, Yan and Zhao, will continue to be threatened by him! We might as well try our best to defeat him, and then let him go. I wonder what the general and prime minister think?" After Zang Tu finished speaking in Zhang Er, Dang even said with his hands folded.

"Although General Zang's words are reasonable, we don't know whether Wang Li has secretly taken refuge in Xiang Yu! If Wang Li's troops are defeated rashly, will they offend Chu State, which is the head of the six kingdoms in the east of the Guandong? And will he offend the brave and brave Xiang Yu? After all, with Li Youzhi in the front, there is no guarantee that Wang Li is also related to Xiang Yu!" Zhang Er didn't speak, and Chen Yudang cupped his hands and said.

Chen Yuzhi's words made sense.Zang Tu didn't know how to answer for a while, but Zhang Er was lost in thought.

In Zhang Er's view, Zang Tu's talk of defeating the Qin army was just a dream.Let's not talk about whether the more than [-] Zhao troops on their side, who have been overthrown by Wang Li's Qin army, can exert their due combat power, but just talk about the army brought by Zang Tu from the country of Yan.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the more than [-] Yan troops under Zang Tu's command are just recruits who have just been recruited, and their equipment is not yet complete.Sticking to the defense can still fill up the number of people, but if you attack the Qin army, it must be half the effort with twice the effort.

After a long time, Zhang Er said: "Why don't you wait and see with Wang Li for a while to see what he's going to do next. How about making other decisions?"

"This is the only plan for the present!" Zang Tu said after hearing Zhang Er's words, sighed inwardly.

In the next few days, the Yanzhao coalition army and Wang Lizhi's Qin army temporarily faced off.

Seeing that the Yanzhao coalition forces had not taken any action, Wang Li sent Wang Wu and Zhou Lei to lead tens of thousands of troops each to Taiyuan and Hedong counties to defend.Then he sent people to the camp of the Yanzhao coalition army to explain his willingness to temporarily suspend troops.

Wang Li's envoy came to the camp of the Yan-Zhao coalition army, and after telling Wang Li's willingness to cease fighting, Zhang Er and Chen Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.The two felt that Wang Li's truce meant that he had secretly defected to Chu!
