Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

Yi Qusheng looked up at the sky, and decided not to talk to that idiot Tu Xie anymore.

On the other hand, Xian Shan at the side had a thoughtful expression on his face after hearing these words.

After marching for nearly half a month, Zhao's cavalry swept across the entire Hehuang area, and the West Sea was already in sight.

"Has Yi Qubo run away?" Li Mu asked Tu Xie who had just returned from a reconnaissance mission.

Tu Xie thought for a while, then replied: "Back to the governor, Yiqubo has united a large number of Qiang tribes, and it seems that he is going to have a decisive battle with the governor here."

Li Mu continued to ask, "How many people are there?"

Tu Xie replied: "From the mouths of the prisoners I captured, it is said that there are as many as 10 people."

"10 people?" Li Mu frowned slightly, but he soon felt relieved.

One hundred thousand tribes and one hundred thousand cavalry are not the same thing.

"Since Yi Qubo didn't run away, it really saved the governor's trouble. Pass the order, and the whole army will speed up to try to find Yi Qubo within three days. We must go home before autumn comes!"

On the other side, Yiqubo, who has nowhere to retreat, is also making many free promises to the Qiang patriarchs: "As long as we defeat the Zhao people, we will continue to attack their land eastward. The fertile pastures and warm climate can prevent your people from suffering from cold and hunger, and allow you to live a better life!"

A big battle is about to start in this land of the West Sea.

Chapter 884 Breaking the Aliens (First Update)

It can be seen that Yi Qubo still has certain confidence in this war.

After all, in the eyes of the "king" of the Yiqu people, the people of Zhao Guo were going on an expedition, and Yiqubo himself had the help of many Qiang tribes. In terms of the number of troops capable of fighting, he even surpassed Li Mu.

In addition, there is another very important reason, that is, Yi Qubo himself has nowhere to escape.

Although the Yiqu people can be regarded as a member of the nomadic people, just like Zhongshan Rong established the Zhongshan Kingdom, the Yiqu people also quickly began to transform from nomadic people to farming people after the establishment of the Yiqu country.

After so many years, the Yiqu people have long been accustomed to living on this land, to a semi-nomadic and semi-agricultural life.

The plot that is most likely to arise among farming peoples is naturally the difficulty of leaving their homeland.

So this time Yiqu Bo brought many Yiqu people to Xihai, which already made many Yiqu people feel dissatisfied.

These days, some Yiqu people have even begun to ask Yiqubo to take him back to fight back, and take back the Yiqu people's homeland.

Under such circumstances, if Yiqubo continues to advance westward, then the small force under him is likely to usher in a split, which is undoubtedly not the result that Yiqubo wants.

So when Li Mu led the army to arrive, Yi Qubo assembled the troops he could muster without any hesitation, and came to confront Li Mu.

Although the summer sun has just risen, it is already too hot to bear.

On a prairie by the west coast, Zhao Jun and Yiqu Army faced each other several miles away in a formation, and a big battle was imminent.

Tu Xie shook his head, chanting words non-stop.

Yi Qusheng, the vanguard general of Zhao Jun, glanced at him and said, "What's going on?"

Tu Xie gave a wry smile and said, "It's nothing, just a little dizzy."

Yi Qusheng thought for a while, and said: "The medical officer from Handan said that you have altitude sickness. Isn't there some rhodiola medicinal material? Didn't you use it?"

"It's used." Tu Xie said: "It has also been relieved a little, but it hasn't fully worked."

Yi Qusheng frowned, and couldn't help but said: "If it really doesn't work, you won't go into battle later."

"Then how can I do it?" Tu Xie said bluntly, "I still want to kill the enemy and make meritorious service. Don't worry, General Yiqu, I won't drag you and the army down."

Yi Qusheng hummed and stopped talking.

For Yi Qusheng, the damned traitor Yi Qubo was right in front of his eyes at this moment, and Yi Qusheng's mind was full of beheading the traitor.

At this moment, Li Mu in front turned around and said to Yi Qusheng: "Yi Qusheng, you go out with armored cavalry."

Yi Qusheng was overjoyed when he heard the words, and immediately promised loudly, and then rode away at a gallop, followed by Tu Xie.

Xian Shan, who was on the side, looked at the situation and couldn't help but said worriedly: "Governor, isn't it too early to send out the armored cavalry now?"

Li Mu smiled, pointed to Yiqu and the Qiang coalition army in front of him and said: "Although they are large in number, in my opinion, they are nothing more than a group of military exploits and slaves. For such people, what we have to do The only thing we need is to completely defeat them with a thunderous attack, and then take this piece of land into our pocket."

When Li Mu spoke sonorously, he was obviously full of confidence.

After a while, the rumbling sound of beating drums began to sound from Zhao Jun's central army formation.

The [-] armored cavalry who had assembled their formations slowly came out under the leadership of Yiqu Sheng, and came towards the Yiqu army.

"That's the armored cavalry." In the position of the Yiqu army, Yiqu Bo said, pointing to the armored cavalry.

I have to say that the feeling that a tall horse like an armored cavalry is wrapped in armor is very shocking.

Even if you haven't seen the combat style of an armored cavalry, just looking at the armor on the armored cavalry and the handsome horse under its crotch, you know that this is definitely not an easy opponent to deal with.

Many Qiang patriarchs couldn't help but change their faces after seeing the appearance of the armored cavalry, and they were silent for a while.

Yi Qubo cursed secretly when he saw the cowardly appearance of the patriarchs.

One by one spoke so nicely before the start of the war. The commentator has not yet started fighting the Zhao people. Just looking at the armored cavalry has already persuaded them.

However, Yi Qubo still counted on these Qiang people to work for him, so naturally it was impossible to say anything more, but he said very seriously to the Qiang people around him: "You don't have to worry, I also served in the Zhao army back then. Yes. Although this armored cavalry looks mighty and unstoppable, it actually has weaknesses."

Upon hearing Yi Qubo's words, many Qiang patriarchs immediately cast their gazes over.

Yi Qubo continued: "The biggest weakness of this armored cavalry is that it can only charge forward to face the enemy, and once the speed is up, it cannot turn, and the physical strength of the horses is not enough to support them for a long time. When the armored cavalry charge, get out of the way, and then slowly fight with them, just wait until their horsepower is exhausted, and then they will be a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered."

When Yi Qubo said these words, the Qiang patriarchs present breathed a sigh of relief.

It's good to have weaknesses.

A rather tall patriarch snorted and said: "In this case, I will take my clansmen to meet this armored cavalry. But according to what I said beforehand, after defeating the Zhao people, I will Get double the loot and pasture!"

Yi Qubo smiled and said: "It's natural. Anyone who defeats the armored cavalry can get double the spoils and pastures after the battle. This is the agreement we have agreed on a long time ago."

The Qiang patriarch nodded in satisfaction, and started to gather his troops. The eyes of the other Qiang team leaders flickered, and they couldn't help but regret letting this opportunity slip away from their hands.

Compared with Zhao Jun, who pays attention to formation, the Qiang people don't have any formation at all. A group of people rushed out under the leadership of the patriarch, and confronted Yiqusheng's armored cavalry two or three miles away. .

There are more than 3000 Qiang cavalry in total, and in terms of numbers, they are obviously more than the armored cavalry of Yiqusheng.

Yi Qusheng, who had just completed the formation, smiled softly, then slowly raised the saber in his hand, and slashed down on the air in front of him.

"Army attack!"

Yi Qusheng gave an order, and the armored cavalry immediately moved, rushing towards the Qiang cavalry formation in front of them like a black torrent.
