Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

The current king of Qin, Chu, has very complicated feelings about Zhao Guo in his heart. He gritted his teeth with hatred and wished that Zhao Guo would perish tomorrow, but when he really found that Zhao Jun was right in front of him, he became very scared again.

Qin Wangchu thought for a while, then snorted coldly: "Since Zhao Jun has already arrived in Chenggu, how do you know that Zhao Jun's forwards have already arrived in Nanzheng?"

The implication is very obvious, if Zhao Guoren's striker is already under Nanzheng, then Qin Wangchu chooses to run out of the city, wouldn't he bump into Zhao Guoren's pocket?

Cai Ze couldn't help but glance at Wei Liao upon hearing this.

Because of Wang Jian, the Wang family has completely lost power in the Qin army, so Wei Liao, who was an unknown soldier two years ago, has now become the highest military commander of the entire Qin Dynasty under the protection of Cai Ze. official.

However, Wei Liao did not live up to Qin Wangchu's trust. At least judging from the performance of the past few days, Wei Liao has at least stabilized the morale of the army, and did not allow a large-scale collapse to occur. The chaos of the entire Qin army has also been effectively eliminated. Compared with the refugee-like situation when he just fled into Baoxie Road, it is much better.

Wei Liao understood, stood up immediately, and said to Qin Wangchu: "Your Majesty, it has been found out that the general of Zhao State who occupied Chenggu City is Zhao Kuo. Judging from the time, Zhao Kuo should be in the battle of Xihe." Afterwards, they headed south along Meridian Road. According to reports from the scouts, the Zhao army led by Zhao Kuo is not too many, and should number around 5000."

"Four to 5000 people?" King Chu of Qin came to his senses immediately, and hurriedly asked, "Wei Liao, are you able to annihilate this Zhao army led by Zhao Kuo?"

Wei Liao froze for a moment, then said: "I will do my best."

It can be seen that Qin Wangchu was quite dissatisfied with this answer, and when he was about to attack, Cai Ze who was on the side had obviously noticed the situation, and hurriedly said: "My lord, the most urgent thing is to retreat to Shuzhong as soon as possible. Let General Wei Liao take charge of the battle on the side."

Qin Wangchu snorted heavily, then stood up: "Then why are you still standing there in a daze? Immediately drive, I'm going to Chengdu!"

Chapter 9: Unexpected (Second)

Although Qin Wangchu left, Cai Ze stayed.

For Cai Ze, Wei Liao was still very respectful: "What orders does Mr. Gang Cheng have?"

Cai Ze took a deep look at Wei Liao, and said slowly, "General Wei Liao, tell the truth, now that Zhao Kuo is attacking, can you resist it?"

Cai Ze is obviously a knowledgeable person, which can be seen from the fact that he asked "whether it can be blocked" instead of "whether it can be annihilated".

Wei Liao glanced to the left and right, and found that he and Cai Ze were the only two, so he said in a low voice: "Gang Chengjun, if he can stick to Nanzheng, then even if Zhao Kuo has Zhentianlei as his help, he will not It is possible to break through Nanzheng City."

Cai Ze thought for a while and asked, "Then if we take the initiative to attack, can we annihilate Zhao Kuo's troops as the king wishes?"

Wei Liao looked troubled.

This is not to say that Wei Liao is afraid to fight, but it is really difficult for Qin Jun to fight against the menacing Zhao Jun with the current situation of Qin Jun's remnants and defeated generals.

Cai Ze frowned, and said in a low voice, "Daqin needs a victory now."

Wei Liao took a deep breath, and said in a low voice, "Fifty percent."

"Fifty percent?" Cai Ze frowned even deeper, and after a while he said, "You don't mean to dispatch the whole army, do you?"

Wei Liao smiled helplessly: "The whole army is dispatched."

All of a sudden, Cai Ze's old face was almost completely wrinkled together.

You must know that there are no fewer than 5000 Qin troops in the current Nanzheng City. Although Cai Ze is also very clear about how much water is in this number, the problem is that the troops led by Zhao Kuo are only [-] after all. ah.

5 people beat 5000 people, and the winning rate is only [-]%?

This result obviously made the old Xiangguo unhappy.

Wei Liao sighed, and said: "Mr. Gang Cheng doesn't know something. Now that all the soldiers have just withdrawn from Xianyang, and they were chased by Yiqu Sheng all the way to kill the soldiers and lose the generals, there is really no morality and discipline at all. But please Don't worry, Gang Chengjun, if you give me ten days and a half months, I will be able to rearrange the army, and then the counterattack will become solid, and it is not impossible to expel Zhao Kuo from Hanzhong."

After all, Wei Liao was still a young and vigorous young general, and it was actually very difficult for him to completely abandon offense and focus on defense.

Cai Ze took a deep look at Wei Liao, and said, "Actually, according to my opinion, you'd better think about how to stick to Jiameng Pass."

"Jiameng Pass?" Wei Liao couldn't help being taken aback when he heard the words, and then his face turned pale with shock: "Could it be that Mr. Gang Cheng means to give up Hanzhong?"

Located at the southernmost end of Jinniu Road, Jiameng Pass is the northern gate of the Bashu Basin. It can be said to be the last and most critical pass guarding the Bashu.

If the Qin army retreated to Jiameng Pass, then it would have retreated into Bashu, which meant that the entire Hanzhong had been handed over.

Wei Liao was very eager to change Cai Ze's mind: "Mr. Gang Cheng, the terrain in Hanzhong is dangerous, and you can still "

Cai Ze waved his hand and interrupted Wei Liao: "General Wei Liao, I'm afraid you don't know something. According to the information I just got, the army led by Li Mu has already entered the Baoxie Road."

Cai Ze said and looked at Wei Liao with piercing eyes: "The Baoxie Road is not as difficult as the Meridian Road. According to Li Mu's marching speed, he will appear in Hanzhong in about five days at most. At that time, you have the confidence to resist Stop Li Mu's offensive?"

Wei Liao was silent.

From the bottom of his heart, Wei Liao really wanted to say the word "can".

But the problem is that Wei Liao himself is very clear, just relying on these remnants and defeated generals under his command, how easy is it to fight against Zhao Guo's powerful army that swept the Central Plains?

Looking at Wei Liao who was still struggling, Cai Ze couldn't help but sighed, patted Wei Liao heavily on the shoulder, and said, "General Wei Liao, now that things are going on, you should think about how to organize the retreat. .Remember, take away all the men and supplies that can be taken away, and try not to leave a single bit for Zhao Jun!"

Wei Liao nodded solemnly, then came to his senses again, and asked, "Let's go right away? How should the king explain?"

Cai Ze snorted, and said in a low voice: "Now you have seen the situation of the king, what do you need to explain? Just do it, I will do everything!"

Wei Liao understood completely now.

Obviously, the decision to completely abandon Hanzhong and concentrate all troops and resources to defend Bashu was made by Cai Ze himself.

Looking at Cai Ze who left, Wei Liao's expression was very complicated.

After a while, Wei Liao sighed softly, and said in a low voice to the Qin generals who just came in front of him: "Wait quickly to organize, the whole army will set off tomorrow morning and retreat to Jiameng Pass! "

The journey of two days, whether it is long or not, is not short.

At dusk the next day, Nanzheng City was already visible in Zhao Kuo's sight.

But at this time, a piece of news that surprised Zhao Kuo came.

"Has all the Qin troops evacuated yesterday morning?"

Zhao Kuo opened his mouth wide, not willing to believe what he heard.

It wasn't until he led [-] troops under his command into this almost empty city that Zhao Kuo was really convinced of the fact that the Qin people really retreated again?

Standing in front of the empty Nanzheng County Sheriff's Mansion, Zhao Kuo couldn't help but shook his head, thinking in disbelief, "The people of Qin are retreating now?"

You must know that before Zhao Kuo wanted to come, the Qin people also had 5 horses after all, not to mention taking the initiative to meet him, at least it is impossible to be scared away by him, right?

As a result, Zhao Kuo never expected that judging from the current situation, it seems that the people of Qin State were really scared away by themselves.

The captain of Zhao Kuo's personal guard came over, and smiled at Zhao Kuo: "General, our army captured Hanzhong with ease this time, scaring the people of Qin and fleeing back to Bashu. Your Majesty will definitely reward the general heavily for this."

Zhao Kuo snorted and scolded: "These Qin people really have no guts, they just ran away like this."

Zhao Kuo was very dissatisfied that the obtained Qin Wangchu flew away like this.

The captain of the personal guard smiled and said: "General, since Nanzheng City has been taken down, the brothers should be able to rest for a few days, right? We will go find a few young ladies in Hanzhong and let them take a good rest." Serve and serve the general"
