Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

For the era of cold weapons, Zhentianlei is indeed too far ahead of the times.

"Do you want to burn this city?" Li Mu said to Yi Qusheng in front of him.

"Burn this city?" Yiqu Sheng was stunned for a moment, and said through gritted teeth at any time: "Okay, since the Qin people burned one of my capitals, then I'll burn one of their capitals too!"

Li Mu nodded, and said to Zhao Kuo who was beside him: "Send an order to drive all the residents out of the city immediately, and tell them that the governor will burn the city to the ground at noon tomorrow."

On that day, there was a loud cry outside the city of Jingyang, and countless Qin people left the city with their old and young, and headed towards Xianyang in panic.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Zhao Kuo couldn't help sighing with emotion: "Your Majesty is right, war is indeed the most evil thing in this world."

Li Mu looked at all this calmly, without even a trace of fluctuation in his eyes: "If we are not strong enough, then this scene will be staged in Handan, in the land of Zhao State."

When Zhao Kuo was told by Li Mu, he subconsciously thought of a scene: his mother and younger brother helped the old and the young, and followed countless Zhao people crying bitterly all the way away along the main road. Behind them was the burning Handan City.

Zhao Kuo couldn't help shivering, all the sympathy for these Qin people disappeared in his heart, and he said seriously: "General, the time has come, please order to set fire."

Li Mu nodded and said, "Go."

Hundreds of cavalry holding torches kept running back and forth on the streets of Jingyang City. Billowing smoke accompanied by soaring flames raged in the city.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Zhao Kuo suddenly felt a touch of excitement and pleasure for no reason.

War brings destruction, and destruction is an addictive emotion.

Tu Xie, who was standing next to him, looked at the expression on Zhao Kuo's face, and suddenly came over on his horse, and said, "Lieutenant General, do you think the feeling of the fire is better, or the feeling of the thunder?"

Zhao Kuo pondered for three seconds, and said: "If the fire burns, the scene will be more spectacular. If you watch it for a long time, it will be more enjoyable. But Zhentianlei is different. The effect can make people climb to the peak in an instant, just like the blissful thing between a man and a woman, and it is also a great enjoyment in life."

Tu Xie glanced at Zhao Kuo in admiration, and said: "The deputy general is indeed a person who has read books, and it is interesting to say everything. By the way, when talking about this woman, the deputy general thinks"

The two of them laughed, and with a tacit understanding, they pulled their horses aside to discuss this issue.

"Jingyang City has been destroyed, so we have to go back to Guanzhong." Wang Jian said slowly to Wei Liao in front of him, "If you want to attack Shaoliang City, you must do so before the king's messenger arrives. This city."

Wei Liao nodded solemnly, and said: "If you attack by force, I'm afraid that you will be in a hurry for a while, what's the general's plan?"

Wang Jian shrugged his shoulders, and said, "The strategies for attacking the city are nothing more than a few. There is a deserted drainage ditch outside Shaoliang City. I have ordered to dig it secretly for the past few days. Now the ditch is completely empty." It is connected to the ditch in the city, and only a few hundred soldiers who are proficient in water skills can sneak in through the ditch, and then we can attack Shaoliang City by cooperating with the inside and outside!"

Wei Liao's eyes lit up, and he immediately said: "I grew up by the river since I was a child, and I would like to lead the soldiers into the city as a vanguard!"

Wang Jian laughed loudly, and patted Wei Liao on the shoulder vigorously: "Very well, then the victory of this battle will be handed over to General Wei Liao."

Midnight.

Xu Li, who had just finished his tour of the city, returned to his room, and said to the guard, "Get some hot water, I want to wash my feet."

The hot water came quickly, Xu Li removed his armor and shoes, and soaked his feet in the hot water.

A comfortable feeling came from his feet, Xu Li groaned comfortably, and lay down on the couch, closing his eyes and resting his mind.

"Ten days have passed, presumably Li Mu's commander-in-chief should be able to make some noise, right?"

If it was said that Xu Li underestimated Wang Jian at the beginning, then by now, this kind of underestimation has completely disappeared without a trace.

After fighting Wang Jian for so many days, Xu Li has already fully felt Wang Jian's style. This young general of the Qin State does have his uniqueness in using troops. It made Xu Li feel unbearable.

At first Xu Li felt that he could hold on for at least three months, but after ten days, Xu Li felt that if he could hold on for a month without losing the city, he would be lucky.

Xu Li urgently needs Li Mu to share some pressure for himself in Guanzhong.

Thinking about it, Xu Li's consciousness began to become a little drowsy, and he was about to fall asleep slowly.

Suddenly, a burst of noise reached Xu Li's ears.

Xu Li was so excited that he jumped up all of a sudden, and even the hot water on the soles of his feet was knocked to the ground.

"What's going on?" Xu Li asked in a deep voice towards the door.

There was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps, the door was opened, and the tense face of a Zhao general appeared in front of Xu Li.

"It's not good, general, the Qin army has already entered the city!"

"What?" Xu Li was shocked when he heard the words: "How is this possible? Could it be that the people of Qin Kingdom flew in from the sky?"

Xu Li was flustered, put on his armor as fast as he could, and rushed out of the room.

As soon as he rushed out of the room, Xu Li's face changed drastically in an instant.

At this moment, Shaoliang City was full of shouts of killing, and the streets were lit up red by the flames. Standing at Xu Li's position, one could even clearly see a long dragon made of flames approaching Xu Li's direction. .

Looking at the scene in front of him, Xu Li's heart suddenly became cold.

"How come, how can this happen?"

Xu Li couldn't figure it out at all. He had just inspected the four walls of the entire city half an hour ago to ensure that all the security mechanisms were operating normally. Why was it that the Qin army was able to enter the city so effortlessly?

Is it a traitor?Or did the people of Qin discover some secret way?

Just when Xu Li was in a state of confusion, the captain of his personal guard couldn't help pulling Xu Li's shoulder, saying: "General, it's time to retreat, otherwise the Qin people will call!!"

Only then did Xu Li come back to his senses, and after looking around, he realized that hundreds of soldiers had already gathered around him, all of them looked terrified.

Xu Li gritted his teeth and said, "Go, follow me and retreat from the north gate!"

After daybreak, Wang Jian led his personal guards into the city and met Wei Liao.

At this moment, Wei Liao looked as if he had been fished out of a pile of dead people, with blood all over his body and a strong evil spirit in his eyes.

Wei Liao cupped his hands towards Wang Jian, showing a smile: "General, it's a good luck not to disgrace your life!"

Wang Jian also smiled: "General Wei Liao, if you can break the city in this battle, you will be the first to do it! Pass the order down, immediately start to calm the people, and the whole army is ready to repair, and when the Xianyang King's order arrives, immediately set off to return to the west!"

Chapter 853 Mutual Guessing (Third Change)

Whether it's Wang Jian or Li Mu, at this time, they seem to have initially achieved their goals before the decisive battle.

So the next thing to do should be to defeat the opponent.

Wang Jian stared at the troop rushing like a tide in front of him, he couldn't help showing a smile on his face, and said to Wei Liao beside him, "You will send an order to expand the range of cavalry investigation to fifty miles, so as not to be caught by Li Mu. Take the opportunity to surprise our army."

Wei Liao nodded, but couldn't help but said with some doubts: "General, our army has just set off from Shaoliang City for only a day, is it really possible that Li Mu will appear at this moment?"

Wang Jian smiled slightly, and said: "It's better to be cautious. Looking at Li Mu, he likes to use strange things the most in previous wars. He will often appear in certain places of the enemy unexpectedly, and then take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness. We can conquer the enemy in one fell swoop. Since we don't know when Li Mu is going to make a surprise attack, we have no choice but to prepare from the first day."

Wei Liao nodded repeatedly when he heard the words, deeply agreeing.

On this side, Wang Jian was on his way without stopping, but he didn't know that on the other side, Li Mu had already stopped with his [-] troops, waiting for Wang Jian on the preset battlefield.
