I Want To Be Qin II - Chapter 1117
Chapter 1117 Battle of Anyang 7
The sun sets in the west, and the afterglow fades away.
The world was plunged into darkness, Yinggao had a meal in the shogunate, looked at the map, and did not make a sound for a long time.
He knew clearly in Anyang that he did not want to break through as soon as possible, and had the idea of training troops in his heart, but Jingxing Pass was different.
Li Mu is like a hungry wolf.
Moreover, the terrain of Jingxing Pass is too favorable for Zhao Jun, which will put Daqin at a disadvantage.
In war, geographical location is extremely important.
“General, Li Mu has the home field advantage. I’m afraid that the general will not be able to achieve the set goal in a short period of time!” Fan Zeng said, holding a tea cup, facing Yinggao.
“Li Mu not only occupies the home field advantage, but also occupies the geographical advantage!”
Master Ying moved his zhang pole slightly and crossed the Jingxing Pass: “Taihang Mountain and Shangdang Mountain are natural barriers.”
“The Taihang Mountains are vertical and horizontal from north to south. This is a vast mountain plateau spanning more than a hundred miles from east to west.”
“This is a highland that spans nearly a thousand miles from north to south and hundreds of miles from east to west. And this dangerous place, which stretches for thousands of miles, only has exits on the east and west sides.”
“The canyon passages that traverse the east and west, from south to north, are: Guanxing, Taihang, Baixing, Fukouxing, Jingxing, Feihuxing, Puyinxing, and Junduxing.”
Having said this, Ying Gao’s tone changed slightly, smiled at Fan Zeng, and said, “According to reliable information and the teacher’s pre-war plan, Li Mu and the teacher have the same goal.”
At this time, Master Ying landed on the place circled in red: “That is Jingxing Mountain. There is a pass here called Jingxing Pass.”
“Jingxing Mountain is not a towering mountain, but Jingxing Pass is indeed a dangerous place for soldiers.”
“This time Zhao State is defending against danger, and the main general is Li Mu. Even if the teacher is a peerless general, it is very difficult to break through in a short time.”
“So, the only way now is for us or General Meng Tian to make a breakthrough.”
Hearing what Ying Gao said, Zhang Liang was a little puzzled, hesitated for a moment, then turned to Ying Gao and said, “If that’s the case, why didn’t Ying General take the opportunity to attack Anyang in one fell swoop, so as to relieve the general’s pressure?”
Hearing this, Ying Gao glanced at Zhang Liang and couldn’t help but smile. Today’s Zhang Liang is still too young, and he has not experienced much, so that whether it is vision or other, there is a big lack.
It’s just that Zhang Liang has a lot of potential after all. At this time, he doesn’t mind making a point or two, and he said to Zhang Liang.
“The three-way army destroys Zhao at the same time. If the direction of Wu’an and Jingxing Pass does not hold back the Zhao army, even if the general will break down Anyang, it will not help.”
“…”
There were some things that Yinggao said, but they were not as thorough. He believed that even if Zhang Liang didn’t understand it at the moment, he would eventually understand it.
An army of 250,000 people, even if it is one of the best and the best, can’t really destroy Zhao State, even if he leads the army himself.
Therefore, whether it is him or Meng Tian breaking through, the remaining two parties need to hold the rest of the Zhao army down. Only in this way can we advance all the way without worries.
There is no other two ways to contain it, even if it is to break through Anyang, it will have no effect. A city does not have any great use for Daqin.
And this is also the reason why Yinggao chose to train in Anyang, but did not attack Anyang in the first place.
“Let’s all go down to rest. After three days, we are going to fight in Anyang, and Chen Bing will be outside the city of Handan!”
“No.”
nodded in agreement, everyone left, only Ying Gao was left in the shogunate, and at this moment, Sima Shi hurried over.
“Your Majesty, the general has an order, all the troops are in place, it’s time to break through Anyang.”
“Immediately send our people to tell the two generals that in three days, they will attack Anyang, and on the fourth day, the army will be under the city of Handan.”
Having said this, Ying Gao turned his head and turned towards Sima Shi: “When our army Chen Bing outside Handan City, we will need the command of all Qin troops except the Jingxingguan army.”
“Within three months, we will take Handan, and then encircle Li Mu with the general.”
“No.”
nodded in agreement, and Sima Shi turned around and left. He was Ying Gao’s henchman, so naturally he would not doubt Ying Gao’s order.
Watching Sima Shi leave, Yinggao pondered for a long time. Toward Tie Ying: “Send someone to General Meng Tian’s army and send a letter to the general.”
“No.”
Not much to say, Ying Gao wrote a letter with a pen, put it in a copper tube, sealed it with mud, and handed it to Iron Eagle.
…
Anyang.
“General, there has been no news of Anyang order. At the same time, our rear has been captured by the Qin army Yang Duanhe.”
The lieutenant general was full of worry and turned towards the defender of Anyang: “Now, Anyang is an isolated city, and neither reinforcements nor luggage can come in.”
Hearing this, General Anyang’s expression changed drastically. He did not expect that the Qin army would be so mad that they would still divide their troops at this time.
“Shameless boy, An dare to look down on me Zhao Guo!” In his opinion, Ying Gao looked down on him at all.
After being angry, General Anyang calmed down all of a sudden, and he also knew that with his illustrious reputation, he naturally knew that the other party had the right to underestimate him.
“Let the brothers be vigilant and guard against the leaves of the Qin army!” Having said this, General Anyang turned to the lieutenant: “Tonight, you will lead the direct line and break through.”
“If no reinforcements arrive from the rear, Anyang, an isolated city, will not last long.”
This was the only strategy that General Anyang could think of. He knew in his heart that the huge gap between him and Yinggao, as well as the gap between the Qin army and the Zhao army, was definitely not something a city could wipe out.
As a military general, he is naturally aware of the process of Ying Gao’s rise, and is extremely jealous of Ying Gao.
“General, Yang Duanhe is blocking our army’s route at the rear, I’m afraid it will be difficult to break through!”
“There is no way!”
General Anyang’s face was ugly, and he said earnestly to the lieutenant: “Whether the Anyang order will convey the news to Handan is still unknown. Today, Anyang is an isolated city, and weapons, food and grass, and reinforcements cannot enter.”
“If we don’t take the opportunity to break out of the siege and ask for help, and wait until the food and grass in the city are cut off, then it will be a real dead end. Even if the Qin army does not attack the city, the people in the city will tear us apart.”
For this point, General Anyang sees it very thoroughly. Between life and death, many laws, laws and morals are difficult to restrain and will lose their effect.
Survive!
Survival is the first priority.
Some people once said that people who are about to starve to death are no longer human. General Anyang agreed with this.
He has seen such a scene, and he naturally knows how tragic Anyang will be once the food shortage occurs.
