Chapter 310 The coalition forces are not united, and they are not united.
The camps in Hanoi are continuous, and the military tents of the Six Nations are connected into a sixty-mile company. They are majestic. The flags of various colors are rustling with the howling north wind, as if they are fighting against the people on the other side.
Hangu Pass and the Qin army roared.
Starting from about the Spring and Autumn Period, the large plain south of the Yellow River was called "Hanoi", and the mountain plateau north of the Yellow River was called "Hewai". And this astonishing military camp was located on the Hanoi Plain under the Hulao Mountain on the south bank of the river.
From the perspective of a military strategist, it is geographically convenient to set up camp here.
It is bordered by a mighty river to the north and Quwo Fortress to the east. The chasm that leads the river into Liang flows from the east foot of Hulao Mountain to the south, while Sishui flows into the river from the south foot to the north. The camp is sandwiched between three rivers, making it extremely convenient for the army to obtain water.
Especially for the transportation of grain and fodder, starting from Aocang, where the Wei State has accumulated countless treasuries over the years, one can go up the river directly to the camp of the Six Nations Allied Forces, which can avoid the two weeks of land that has been occupied by the Qin army.
There is also a military camp near Quwo Fortress, where tens of thousands of people are stationed. There are six-color flags and six-color armor, and there are many large banners in the tent, which is colorful and lively.
In the center of this camp, there is the largest camp, which is also made of brocade and gilded copper pillars, with a military chariot as the gate. This is the command tent of the coalition forces.
However, unlike the laughter in the Qin army's tent, the atmosphere in the coalition army's tent was a bit depressing.
When the news of the hundreds of masters leaving Du Youting reached the Qin army, it also reached the allied forces across the river at almost the same time.
Zhang Ji didn't die, and he even broke through to the master level.
Of course, this isn't actually much bad news.
In the final analysis, in a battle involving two million people, a Grandmaster is certainly a powerful weapon, but in a battle of this scale, it is just a drop in the ocean and the courage of an ordinary man is nothing to mention.
After all, Zhang Ji has never shown any talent in the military. According to the detailed intelligence, Zhang Ji does not even know how to lead troops. Military affairs are all handled by his subordinates. Even the most basic military affairs need to be taught by others.
Serving as a guard is just a favor of Yingzheng, and the threat to this war is not great.
The real bad news is that the Xijiao that the six countries sent to incite people's hearts and cause panic in the hinterland of Qin were almost wiped out by the net. Most of the Xizuo strongholds that had been hidden for many years were also personally led by Zhiri and Xuanjian.
Uprooted.
At least in the espionage war, the Six Nations Allied Forces suffered a devastating defeat. Now the Allied Forces could hardly get any information from Hangu Pass. If it weren't for a master who was friendly to the Six Nations among the hundreds of families, he informed Du Youting of the incident.
They didn't even know about Zhang Ji's breakthrough. Pang Nuan, who was sitting in the handsome tent, couldn't help but worry about this.
Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you be victorious in every battle.
And confidants... Although the six-nation alliance was formed, the past grievances did not turn into ashes just because of the alliance.
The Zhao army under his direct jurisdiction had several minor conflicts with the Yan army in these days. The deputy general, Zhao Cong, had a strong temper and his father died at the hands of the Yan army. Therefore, Zhao Cong had no idea about the military affairs of the Yan state at that time.
He never forgets the sneak attack after the Battle of Changping. He often mentions the incident where the Yan army stabbed twice in the back but was beaten up by Zhao and nearly destroyed the country. He despises the Yan people and often taunts the Yan army with this incident.
The human nature of Yan and Zhao is like a blazing fire, and Zhao Cong has a strong temperament, so why are the people of Yan not the same?
Therefore, several minor conflicts broke out between the two sides. Finally, they still thought about forming an alliance and suppressed their tempers, only fighting each other with fists and kicks.
But if Prince Dan of Yan had not been righteous and persuaded Yan Chunjun, the leader of the Yan army, to retreat ten miles away from the Zhao army's camp, the two sides would have been in a bloody battle.
And this is not even the most troublesome thing for Pang Nuan. The most troublesome thing for him is the Chu army.
The Chu army, which accounted for one-third of the coalition forces, did not have any friction with other allies, but they did have some internal discord.
Within the Chu State, there were already war factions and peace factions.
The main war faction believes that Qin will not be destroyed, and Chu will fall into the crisis of annihilation again sooner or later.
As for the Zhuhe faction, they actually don't have much favorable impressions of Qin. Although they accepted a lot of bribes from Qin, they also understood that Qin did not really want to make friends with them.
However, the Chu State was governed by aristocratic self-government, and most of the nobles were actually unwilling to send troops to fight the Qin army.
After all, the captured cities of the Qin State were all owned by the King of Chu, but the soldiers who died and the grain they consumed were theirs. The rewards they received from some military achievements were not worth the cost of sending troops. How many battles could they have fought? meaning?
Not to mention the generals and soldiers under these nobles, the rewards will go to the master if they win, and all the blame will be passed on to them if they lose. Who is willing to fight for these noble gentlemen?
If it weren't for the King of Chu having the Tenglong Legion of the Xiang clan, the Thunder Leopard Legion and the Shadow Tiger Legion of the Ji clan, these three most powerful legions in Chu to support Lord Chunshen, I'm afraid that Lord Chunshen wouldn't be able to dispatch these 300,000. Army.
However, despite this, there were also many discords within the Chu army. The conflicts between the war faction and the peace faction were increasing day by day. In the end, the noble generals of the peace faction also listened to the instructions and refused to listen to the propaganda. They often did not even participate in military meetings, and they were so angry that Chun Chun was so angry. Mr. Shen wanted to enforce military law several times.
Even Wei Jun, whom Pang Nuan thought he could completely trust, was full of internal conflicts.
Although the leader of the Wei army was Lord Xinling, King Wei of Wei sent Jin Yao, the only son of Jin Bi, the leader of the Wei army who had been killed by Lord Xinling when he stole the talisman to save Zhao, as his deputy general. The hatred for killing his father was irreconcilable. Lord Ling sings the opposite tune and is often at odds with Lord Xinling.
If ordinary people were like this, Lord Xinling would have pushed him out and beheaded him in public.
But after all, Jin Yao was the only son of Jin Bi. At that time, Jin Bi followed the order of King Yu of Wei and stagnated, not because he was afraid of war. Jin Bi himself had written a letter requesting to speed up the advance, but King Yu of Wei refused, so Lord Xinling killed him. Although Jin Bi obeyed the authority in a hurry, he was still in the wrong. No matter whether Lord Xinling felt guilty or not, he could not openly attack Jin Yao again, otherwise his little remaining reputation would be completely ruined.
As for physical punishments such as stick punishment and whipping, Jin Bi had been the general of the Wei State for decades. Not only did he have great prestige, but he also had disciples and former officials throughout the Wei State.
Although these people cannot avenge Jin Bi, they are more than enough to protect Jin Yao. Especially Jin Bi's old tribe in the army. If Jin Yao is punished and forces those Jin Bi's old tribe to rebel, the only one who will benefit is Qin, so no matter what Even if he was dissatisfied with Jin Yao, Lord Xinling had to tolerate it openly.
What troubled Pang Nuan the most was who would serve as the vanguard of the coalition forces.
Ji Wuye refused to serve as the vanguard on the grounds that South Korea was a weak country, the people were poor, and the soldiers had poor combat effectiveness. He also expressed concern that the Wei army would attack the Han army again, so the Han army directly stopped in Jiaocheng and hid behind the other armies of the five countries. .
The only guard who could be regarded as peaceful and obedient was however too weak to bear the heavy responsibility.
Thinking of this, Pang Nuan slapped Shuai Ben.
No wonder that even the Hezong organized by a man like Gongsun Yan was defeated by the Qin army one after another.
"That's fine!"
Pang Nuan waved the wolf brush in his hand, wrote down military orders one after another, and sent messengers to the leading generals of the armies of various countries.
This is the military order to march.
However, it was not a military order to march towards Hangu Pass, but a military order to march towards the remaining cities of the Qin army east of Hedong and outside the river.
In order for all countries to temporarily put aside their grudges and focus on resisting Qin, they must stimulate the coalition through several victories and actual benefits.
"I hope they will obey orders after receiving tangible benefits."
The candlelight reflected in the handsome tent swayed, as if hinting at the ending of the Six Kingdoms' unification, and slowly extinguished as Pang Nuan went to bed.
