Great Qin Emperor

Chapter 174 The World Returns 1: Killing Zhao

Chapter 174

The mountains are towering, with thousands of peaks and valleys, and there is only one trail winding at the foot of the mountain.This kind of terrain is extremely unfavorable to the army. Many famous commanders in history took extra care when passing through this kind of terrain, because it is a deadly place. Once trapped by the enemy, there is no need to fight, just rolling wood and rocks can solve the problem. , It can be said that victory can be won without bloodshed.

If trapped in this kind of terrain, there are very few people who can escape, Hannibal, the famous general of ancient Carthage, is one of them.Even Octavian, the first emperor in Roman history, did not easily march in this terrain. When encountering this terrain, he either bypassed it or sent troops to reconnaissance from the top of the mountain to ensure safety.

Zhao Cong was leading Zhao Guo's cavalry to pass by.This kind of terrain is a huge threat to infantry, let alone cavalry. Cavalry can no longer ride horses while walking, they can only dismount and walk, no different from infantry.

Undoubtedly, Zhao Cong was a loyal general, but he was definitely not an outstanding general. He did not send a sentry to go up the mountain for reconnaissance after passing through such a dangerous place.In addition to his lack of talent, the reason for this situation is also related to King Qin, who called King Qin's performance to convince Zhao Cong that although the road is dangerous, he will walk through it safely and will not be threatened.

This is the preciousness of King Qin. Not only can he convince his own people that he is omnipotent, but he can also make the enemy believe in him.Perhaps, it was this extraordinary charm that made Qin's various defeating strategies well implemented. It was not until the five kingdoms were completely wiped out and only Qi was left that Qi felt something was wrong and made slow military deployments.

"Where did you go?" Zhao Cong asked.

The little school replied: "Go back to the general, it's time to reach the sky."

Zhao Cong nodded in praise and said, "One line of sky is really extraordinary. Looking up from here, it's like looking at the sky through a small gap. There's only one line. It's a good name. How far is it from the beam?"

The little school replied truthfully: "Go back to the general, after you leave the first line of sky, you can go to Daliang in three days."

Zhao Cong was full of admiration, and said: "This line of sky is so dangerous, we are going to attack Daliang from here, the Wei people must not have thought of it. Don't say that the Wei people couldn't think of it, but when I first heard the king of Qin talking about it, I thought my ears were wrong. Thinking about it now, this is indeed a clever strategy for a quick decision. Only a wise monarch like King Qin would have thought of it, and only a monarch with courage like King Qin would dare to implement it. Send me an order: advance at full speed and go straight to Daliang!" The King of Qin was overwhelmed by his charm, and he even appreciated it.

He was right. If King Qin had destroyed Wei in this battle, the army would have gone straight to Daliang City from this trail, and King Wei might not have believed it if he took Daliang down.It's a pity that King Qin's battle was to destroy Zhao, not Wei, which was determined by the strategy at the time. (Note: Friends, don't regret this strategy, there are even more weird and unexpected strategies for destroying Wei.)
The order was passed, and Zhao Jun marched faster.Looking at the meandering army, little stars appeared in Zhao Cong's eyes, as if he had already captured King Wei alive and made great achievements.

Zhao Cong didn't expect that there was a pair of eyes on the top of the mountain that could clearly see his every move. This person was none other than Wei Ang, the general of the State of Wei.

"Zhao Cong, you are too arrogant." Wei Ang said with a sneer, pressing his right hand on the log beside him.

The general Zuo Jun reminded Wei Ang: "My lord, the Zhao army has all entered an ambush, and you can do it." He raised a stone and was about to throw it down.

"Put it down!" Wei Ang shouted.

If we attack now, Zhao Jun will not be able to run away. The Zuo Jun will not carry out the order. He argues: "General, if you don't fight now, when will you wait? General, let's fight!"

Wei Ang was unmoved, and said, "Let them live a little longer."

Zuo Jun analyzed the advantages and disadvantages and said: "General, go further forward, the terrain is open, which is beneficial to Zhao Jun."

Wei Ang asked back: "I, Wei Ang, have been fighting all my life, don't I even understand this truth? Will I let him go to the open field?"

Zuo Jun thought about it for the same reason, and asked a little puzzled: "May I ask, General, why is that?"

Wei Ang cleared his doubts and said, "It will take another three hours to reach the open land. Wouldn't they be more tired if they marched for another three hours?"

Zuo Jun suddenly realized that Wei Ang still had to consume Zhao Jun's physical strength, so he repeatedly called out a clever plan, put the stone on the ground, and said: "The general is still brilliant, and the general will be taught."

Wei Ang looked up at the sky, and said: "In three more hours, it will be almost dark, and it is a good time to strike. Zuo Jun, you go to the front, wait for me to use the fire as a sign, and block your head immediately."

Zuo Jun was so happy that he almost jumped up, and said: "Follow the order! General, please rest assured, Zuo Jun promises to complete the task." He trotted away.

Daliang City, Palace of King Wei.With his left arm around his beautiful concubine and his right hand holding a gold wine bottle, King Wei was about to put the fine wine in his mouth with a satisfied face.

At this moment, an eunuch came in and said, "My lord, the envoy of Qin State is asking to see you."

The King of Wei didn't even think about it, and said, "No! Qin Guo is at war with Wei Guo, and Qin Guo dares to send envoys to come, not afraid that the widow will cut off his dog's head." Wei Wang finally said something powerful.

The eunuch replied: "Your Majesty, the envoys of the State of Qin have the letter from the King of Qin."

King Wei may not be afraid of his envoys, but he is afraid of King Qin. His aura just now was gone, so he pushed the concubine away and said, "Go down. Tell him to come in."

The eunuch withdrew and led the Qin envoys in.The envoy of the State of Qin saluted the King of Wei and said: "The minister Yangjiaoxi has seen the king."

King Wei looked at Yangjiaoxi with displeasure, and asked, "What did King Qin send you to do? Did you declare war on the widow?" What he was most afraid of was that King Qin would declare war on him.

Yang Jiaoxi said calmly: "It is, and it is not."

This is a bit mysterious, King Wei couldn't understand it, so he said with a gloomy face, "Speak clearly."

Yang Jiaoxi said indifferently: "Your Majesty, the ministers have brought my Majesty's handwriting, please read it first." He took out the handwritten letter of King Qin and handed it to King Wei.

King Wei opened it and looked at it again, the unhappiness on his face disappeared instantly, he almost jumped up with excitement, kept patting his chest and shouted: "I am so worried, I am so worried! This is a scam, a complete scam!"

Yang Jiaoxi watched King Wei perform until he calmed down, and then continued: "Your Majesty, my Majesty also wants my ministers to bring a word to you."

King Wei smiled and said: "Tell me. It must be good news. Is the widow right?"

Yang Jiaoxi remained calm, and said: "My Majesty has said it, and the foreign ministers should tell the Majesty quietly."

King Wei put his ear closer, and the sheep horn whispered something next to his ear, and King Wei's face suddenly changed, pale as paper, and he kept saying: "This, this, this..."

Yangjiaoxi asked immediately, "Will the king execute it?"
