Chapter 103 Qin army moves, the situation changes
In the tenth year of King Dan of Zhao, at the end of March of the 50th year of King Ji of Qin, 150,000 Qin troops left Hangu Pass, and on the grounds that the Eastern Zhou Dynasty sent troops to help the five-nation coalition forces hit Hangu, they brazenly attacked Hanzhi's Gaodu and defeated Li.
However, in three days, Gao Du was defeated, and 30,000 troops were destroyed in the East Zhou Dynasty. In five days, Li was defeated, and 20,000 troops were destroyed in the South.
For a moment, the storm changed.
On the first day of April, Li Yu took Yu Qing and Wei Qi, who had been in his mansion for more than half a month, to the military camp to appreciate the soldiers of the two battalions under his command. During this half month, Li Yu was definitely a role model for respecting the wise and polite people. He basically had to talk to the two people every day. He found that Wei Qi, who did not pay attention to it, was also a talented person, but he was anxious and had no idea about many places. However, Yu Qing quietly made up for it, which made Li Yu even more interested. He was too short of people around him.
"Please, two gentlemen."
"Please, General."
Sitting on the general's platform, Yu Qing and Wei Qi were a little moved when they looked at the soldiers in the school field. Looking at their shapes and observing their momentum, these soldiers were definitely elite soldiers.
"The martial arts performance begins."
As usual, after an hour of competition, twelve people entered the Huben Camp this time. After Li Yu gave them armor one by one, he took the two gentlemen to look at the training of the Huben Camp and then entered the tent with them.
"Two gentlemen, I wonder what I think of the two battalions under my command?" After the warm water and dishes came up, Li Yu asked with a smile.
"A peerless strong soldier." After spitting out a word, Yu Qing and Wei Qi couldn't help but breathe.
The momentum of the two battalions of soldiers was just playing martial arts, which shocked Yu Qing and Wei Qi. Especially Wei Qi, who was once the prime minister of Wei, knew very well about the combat effectiveness of Wei Guo soldiers. He compared the Wei soldiers in his heart and found that if the two armies had the same number of troops, the Wei soldiers had no chance of winning. Even if the Wei soldiers were twice as many, it might be one sided. If the cavalry was used against the infantry, the elite cavalry here could definitely fight ten or even more, and be invincible on the plain battlefield.
"The two gentlemen are over-reputable." Li Yu was also in a good mood when he received the recognition of the other party. He thought he was one step closer to his goal.
While eating lunch quietly, Li Yu didn't say anything, but just talked about trivial matters in life. His peaceful attitude made Yu Qing and Wei Qi very much appreciate it.
"Brother, what is General Li's intention?" Wei Qi, who returned to the general's mansion, asked the other party, and a trace of inexplicable light flashed in his eyes.
"General Li is quite ambitious." After touching his long beard, Yu Qing's eyes lit up a little, and he nodded naturally.
"Yes." Wei Qi deeply agreed with Yu Qing's words. How could a general be able to train such a strong army without ambition?
"What do you think of Li Yu as a man?"
"Being a general can boost the power of the country, being a prime minister, and being a country can build a country." After more than half a month of contact, Wei Qi knew a lot about Li Yu. From his daily actions and chats, his evaluation of Li Yu has become increasingly high. The true nature is seen in the details, and some of Li Yu's ideas and practical skills make him a little impressed.
"Why don't we join his subordinates?" After hearing Wei Qi's comment, Yu Qing's eyes flashed and he made a suggestion. It was okay to say that the previous courtesy was good. Today, Li Yu took them to see the strong soldiers under his command, and the intention of recruiting was quite obvious. In addition, they all saw the somewhat unique method of training. Yu Qing thought that if they didn't know the truth, they would be a little ignorant of politeness.
"Good." In fact, Wei Qi had wanted to make this suggestion a long time ago. After all, it is rare for people who dare to protect him with an identity like him. Now he is just staying in the general's house for a while, and it is not a long-term solution. He no longer wants to live that nervous life. Li Yu, the general who has fought several battles with the Qin army, is only a good choice. It is definitely a good choice. But Wei Qi was embarrassed to speak, and Yu Qing was still a noble person last month. Because of him, he is now living under someone else's roof.
"Haha, brother is alive. What is the difference between being in the court and being in the general's mansion?" Wei Qi was so readily, Yu Qing naturally understood his concerns, and shook his head with a smile, which made Wei Qi on the opposite side feel quite embarrassed.
"I punish myself for my brother Sanzun." I also knew that I had thought too much. Yu Qing could abandon the position of Shangqing and accompany him to escape from Handan, and what else could he worry about. Wei Qi couldn't help but feel a little ashamed of his anxiety and losses.
"Qing accompanied my brother." He felt that the grudge between the two was removed, and Yu Qing was in a good mood. He accompanied Sanzun to fuck each other. Then the two looked at each other and laughed. It was rare to have a confidant in life.
Now Li Yu has no intention of thinking about the rest of the matter. His mind is attracted by the words on the silk cloth in his hand. It is a letter sent by his grandfather, General Lian Po, quickly Ma Jia. The newly defeated Qin army sent troops to Han Zhigaodu.
Li Yu was a little confused when he tapped his right hand on his leg and quickly pondered the intention of the Qin army. Logically speaking, the Qin army was in need of rest and recuperation only after more than a month of defeat. Is it just to boost morale?
Li Yu also had a little understanding of the current situation of Qin. The passing of Wu'an Jun and the defeat of the Zhao army shocked the Qin government and the morale was sluggish. The Chinese people's emotions were a little negative for a moment, and they pointed their fingers at the old Qin King. If the Qin King Ji, who had been in charge of Qin for decades, had absolutely control over Qin and held military power in his hands, there would be riots in the country. No, there had been riots. I heard that someone in Bashu had raised the anti-flag flag again, stirring up the situation of the entire Qin State, which was the big rear and large granary of Qin State.
You should know that there are quite a few conflicts in Qin. The old Qin people and the people of the six countries are getting deeper and deeper resentment. The death of Wu'an Jun has even aggravated their suspicion. King Ji of Qin is old and has not seen that he has not had much time. The prince An Guojun is also old and is suffering from illness. It is unknown whether he can survive than King Ji of Qin. The people of Bashu are dissatisfied with the high tax burden and revolt, disrupting Qin's deployment. In this case, once King Ji of Qin who maintained the fate of Qin with one hand, he will die of illness again, and then the suppressed conflicts in the country will explode, causing the Qin ship to be stranded and even sink.
At this time, King Ji of Qin used Wang Wei as the general to attack Gaodu, who had the troops stationed in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, with the intention of making people think deeply. You should know that although the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was a vassal state, it was a direct descendant of the Zhou family after all. The current Zhou royal family was declining, but after all, it was the nominal co-lord of the world.
The King of Zhou still existed, and Qin began to make the idea of Eastern Zhou, obviously ignoring the Zhou royal family. In order to boost morale and suppress domestic conflicts, Qin King Ji even tore through the superficial respect.
If it was just to boost morale, suppress domestic conflicts, and divert the wave brought about by the sudden death of Wu'an Jun, it was understandable that Qin State chose the softest Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the softest nation in the world, to fight, but Li Yu always felt that he had nothing unexpected. The scheming and concise Qin King Ji would not be so simple.
