Qin Dynasty: Sword Asks the Bright Moon

Zhao Jun retreated for more than a hundred miles and did not set up a military camp until they retreated to Anyang. Because the general Zhao Cong was assassinated, although Zhao Jun was able to retreat safely here, the morale of the army would not be affected at all.

Especially the person who assassinated Zhao Cong approached Zhao Cong as Wei Jun, which made Zhao Cong's people who didn't know the truth even more upset.

What happened? He actually asked the Wei army to help the Qin army assassinate the Zhao army's general? Isn't the Wei army an ally of the Zhao army?

In the Zhao Jun camp outside Anyang City, when Zhao Cong was assassinated, he immediately ordered the Zhao Jun generals. Sima Shang, who stabilized the Zhao Jun situation, looked at the generals in the tent and said: "Look. The Wei army was defeated, not the Wei army betrayed its alliance."

"General, how could the Wei army be defeated? The Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army of the Qin State has been at war with our Zhao army. How can they have the strength to defeat the Wei army? You must know that the Wei army has at least 50,000 troops. How many people can the Qin army defeat in such a short period of time? Defeat the Wei army?" When Sima Shang expressed his guess, someone asked doubtfully.

After all, the Wei army has a strength of 50,000 to 60,000. The reason why the Zhao-Wei coalition forces are determined to win Dongjun this time and are not worried about the Qin army defeating them is that the strength of either Zhao-Wei coalition army must be greater than that of the Qin army. , the total force in front of the Qin army has an absolute advantage. It is simply impossible for the Qin army to defeat the Wei army before the Zhao army knows the time.

"I can't figure it out now, but the Wei army definitely didn't betray its alliance and allied with the Qin army, otherwise we wouldn't be able to retreat here." Sima Shang sighed.

No one was in a more complicated mood than Sima Shang. The Zhao generals were just confused and angry. They only saw what happened in front of them, but Sima Shang thought of more.

Yang Ming, Sima Shang knew this name before it became famous all over the world. Who would have thought that at that time, he was just a young man with outstanding martial arts skills, but he would rank among the best in the Qin Kingdom in just a few years. High position, his status in the Qin State is even higher than Sima Shang's status in the Zhao State.

In particular, the young man he knew made Zhao Guo experience the feeling of failure twice. With 30,000 people, he was able to defeat the Wei army and force the Zhao army to retreat when faced with the pressure of the Zhao and Wei coalition forces of more than 100,000 people. , this kind of ability is enough to rank among the top generals in the world. Even in terms of the use of a force of less than 50,000 people, Yang Ming's ability is enough to be called the top general among all countries.

That young man back then, why did we let him go to Qin? If we had known today, we would have kept him in Zhao State no matter what. Sima Shang couldn't help but let out a long sigh as he thought about it.

"Now that the Wei army is defeated, the Wei army that isolated Qin's Hanoi and Dongjun must retreat. Dongjun can get Qin's reinforcements. We can no longer attack Dongjun. This war is over." Sima Shang said to the people on his left and right.

"Is it over?" After hearing Sima Shang's words, the faces of the Zhao army generals darkened.

In the previous battle with the Qin army, the Zhao army suffered nearly 10,000 casualties, four captains were killed, and even the generals were assassinated. However, the Zhao army failed to occupy an inch of Qin's territory. It ended like this. Zhao Jun was We really lost, we lost without any doubt, and it was a huge defeat.

But now it is really unfeasible to continue attacking the East County of Qin State. For a time, a huge stone weighed on the hearts of the generals of the Zhao army.

When the atmosphere in the big tent was depressing to the limit, a middle-aged man walked into the big tent under the leadership of the guards.

I saw this middle-aged man in brocade clothes, extremely luxurious. He was supposed to be a elegant and elegant son of a famous family, but at this time he looked extremely embarrassed. One arm was hanging down weakly, and his face was as pale as a fish belly. The look on his face showed that he had been seriously injured.

"Brother Gongsun, what are you doing?" Sima Shang couldn't help but be surprised when he saw the person coming.

He knew the identity of the visitor, and it was precisely because of this that Sima Shang was shocked.

Gongsun Pu, a disciple of the famous master and a descendant of the great master Gongsun Long, has already cultivated his martial arts to the first-class level. Because of the characteristics of the famous martial arts, he is almost invincible in the first-class realm. , such a person could be seriously injured like this?

"I met two terrible women, and were hit with a palm and a sword." Gongsun Pu said with a bitter smile. He only felt that he had been really unlucky in recent years. He was seriously injured by a sword two years ago, and it took him half a year to survive. After recovering from his injuries, he was hit hard again not long after.

Since he practiced martial arts to a first-class level at the age of thirty, although there are still many people he cannot defeat, he has never been injured. However, in less than two years, he was almost killed twice. And they were all severely injured by young and outrageous people.

"The Wei army was defeated thirty miles south of Diqiu City. The 60,000-strong army was defeated by the 8,000 Qin army. Countless people died in the battle and fled. If the Qin army had not been worried about White Horse being defeated by you, even the last remnants of the army might not have been able to escape." Gongsun Pudao.

"The Wei army was really defeated?" Even though he had already guessed the outcome of the Wei army, Sima Shang was still shocked when he heard the confirmed news from Gongsun Pu.

After all, it was a Wei army with 60,000 troops. How could it be defeated? And he lost so quickly?

"Not only was I defeated, but the entire army was almost wiped out. In order to bring you this news, I almost lost my life in the hands of those two fearful women." Gongsun Pu said with lingering fear.

The female disciple of the Yin Yang family and the cold woman with the sword were really terrifying. Even at such a young age, they were no less powerful than him. With the two parties joining forces, he had no choice but to run for his life.

"How did the Qin army do it?" Sima Shang asked.

"The entire Wei army was entrusted to Jishui by the Qin army as a suspicion trick. After knowing the truth, the entire army crossed the river and headed straight for Diqiu. They did not want to be captured by the soldiers who came south from Baima at night when they arrived at Diqiu. The Qin army's light cavalry made a sneak attack when night was approaching, and the whole army was in chaos. They were suddenly defeated by eight thousand Qin's dragon cavalry, and then they were chased by the Qin army for a day, and the entire army was almost annihilated."

As Gongsun Pu spoke, he subconsciously glanced at the generals of the Zhao army in the tent. His meaning was self-evident. How was this battle fought? The Qin army was able to mobilize its troops to blitz the Wei army right under their noses, which made the Wei army unlucky. The entire army was nearly wiped out.

Meeting Gongsun Pu's gaze, the generals of the Zhao army lowered their heads subconsciously. This matter was really embarrassing. It turned out that their friendly army was also responsible for the defeat of the Wei army.

Sima Shang was thinking of more now. In his mind, the ins and outs of the battle in Dongjun slowly emerged. Things that could not be seen when the war was going on were gradually becoming clear at this moment.

From the beginning to the end, starting from the defeat of Pucheng, the Wei army was carefully calculated every step. In the battle of Pucheng, the Wei army thought that it had seen the Qin army's plan, and then chose to stalemate with the Qin army. Later, it understood He was deceived by the Qin army, became angry from shame, and driven by greed, he rushed in with light troops, and was attacked by the Qin army's dragon-riding imperial army, and collapsed in a battle.

"The general has an enemy." Sima Shang thought to himself, and at the same time he couldn't help but feel a little lucky. Fortunately, Yang Ming was targeting the Wei army at the beginning. If such a strategy was used to target the Zhao army, the Zhao army might not be able to perform better than the Wei army. How many.

While the generals of the Zhao army were having complicated thoughts, the King of Wei in the Wei Palace in Daliang City, hundreds of miles away, fell into anger and fear.

In the Battle of Pu River, the Wei State lost 50,000 soldiers and horses. Not long after this, the Wei Army actually lost another 60,000 soldiers and horses. The current Wei State is no longer the great Wei State it was back then. How can it still have so much wealth? It can be defeated. In the past three years, one hundred thousand troops have been lost. It is definitely a heavy blow to the current Wei State.

Thinking of the defeated generals with only a few thousand remnants of the 60,000-strong army, and the possible revenge from Qin, King Wei felt a chill in his heart.

If the Qin army attacks Wei at this time, can Wei possibly stop it? The Qin army in Dongjun only had 30,000 men and was able to defeat the elite Wei army. If 100,000 people came to attack, what could Wei do to stop it?

Although Daliang City is high and deep, not every city in the Wei State is as good as Daliang City. If the other cities are lost, what is the point of having only one Daliang City left in the Wei State?

King Wei didn't have the conditions to become the Emperor of Zhou, what's more, now he doesn't even have the Emperor of Zhou.

"Yang Ming, Yang Ming, why don't you die?" King Wei said bitterly, the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became.

He had never hated a person as much as he does now, not even Lord Xinling back then had he hated so much.

But in his hatred, King Wei had to force himself to calm down. Now that Wei's military strength had been severely damaged, if the Qin army took advantage of the situation to attack Wei, what could Wei do to resist it.

In particular, the envoys who went to the Chu State sent people back with news that the King of Chu was terminally ill, that the Chu capital Shouchun was undercurrent, and that the internal situation was in chaos. There was no time to estimate the affairs of other countries, and that the Wei State had lost a potential reinforcement. .

Even though the defeat from the front line was intentionally blocked by King Wei, the news spread among the upper echelons of Wei State immediately. For a time, the entire Liang Dynasty felt similar to King Wei's mood.

Especially when I heard the names of Yang Ming and the Longhu Forbidden Army, I was even more silent. This name is really famous in the Wei State. There was the death of the Wei Army in Pushui before, and now there is the overthrow of the Emperor Qiu by the Wei Army. This name is very important to Wei. The damage caused by Wei State was too great.

"Qin State." When the knowledgeable people in Daliang City talked about this matter, they couldn't help but shake their heads. In front of Qin State, they really felt the pressure of despair, especially when Qin State's military strength and war This despair becomes even greater when the invincible generals are united.

The people of Wei knew that their ancestors had made great mistakes, and it was precisely because of this that they knew that Qin might not be able to remain strong forever.

But from the current situation, it seems that the Qin army may not really be able to continue to be strong, but Wei's hope of seeing that day is obviously not much.
