Back to the Warring States Period as Zhao Kuo

If you and I send troops to rescue Pingyin City, it will be a great achievement.

I am going to lead the army to Pingyin City to face the Huns tomorrow, what do you think? "

Although Le Qi is the highest-ranking general in this army, it is only because his elder brother is Le Cheng. In fact, Handan did not give Le Qi the power to control the [-] troops, so Le Qi must fight with Lian. It is only through negotiation.

Lian Jing couldn't help being surprised when he heard this: "The general plans to send troops to fight the Huns?

But the order just sent by Wu Xinjun is not very clear, do we have to wait until Wu Xinjun arrives before sending troops? "

Le Qi snorted, and raised his voice in displeasure: "Although Mr. Wu Xin is the commander-in-chief, haven't you heard the saying that you should follow the authority when you are in a hurry?

Now that Pingyin City is at stake, if I wait to stop and cause Pingyin City to be breached, it will not be your responsibility to investigate it at that time? "

Lian Jing remained silent.

For Lian Jing, the recent days are actually not easy.

Accompanied by Lian Po's loss of power, Lian Jing could clearly feel the connotation of the four words "the state of the world is cold". He once went back to Handan to visit his father Lian Po, and got a sentence.

"Don't fight Wu Xinjun, the old man can't fight him, and you can't."

Generally speaking, an impatient father with a bad temper can easily raise a slow-tempered child with a docile personality. This point has been excellently verified by Lian Jing.

After a long while, Lian Jing still shook his head firmly, and said softly: "General Le Qi, I still cannot disobey Wu Xinjun's order."

Le Qi was furious, and said coldly: "Lian Jing, are you toasting or not eating fine wine?"

Lian Jing smiled wryly, and said, "General, Lian Jing is really helpless."

Le Qi took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "Lian Jing, you don't really think that you obey Wu Xinjun's order, and he will let you go, do you?

Don't forget, he was ordered by the Queen Mother to control the northern counties, and no matter you or I will be his subordinates in the future.

Do you understand what this means?

This means that as long as he wants us dead, he can kill us without even reporting to Handan first."

Listening to Le Qi's words, Lian Jing's face became more bitter, and said: "Since General Le Qi knows the reason behind it, why does he insist on embarrassing the last general?"

Le Qi smiled slightly and said, "Embarrassing you?

Let me tell you, I am giving you a way out."

Lian Jing was stunned, and said, "Where did the general come from?"

Le Qi said lightly: "Think about it for yourself, whoever opposed Zhao Kuo in the past, who would have a good end?

Yu Xin and Han Xuwei died tragically. Although your father was not dead, he was also deprived of his official position. You are lucky enough to be a county lieutenant.

If you are honest and honest, it is fine to be a county lieutenant in Bianjun, but now you are under Zhao Kuo's control. Do you think Zhao Kuo really let you dangle in front of him without taking any action?

Let me tell you, after Zhao Kuo has gained a firm foothold, the first county lieutenant to be removed will be you and me."

Lian Jing was shocked and speechless.

After thinking about it carefully, Lian Jing felt that what Le Qi said made a lot of sense.

Wu Xinjun is notoriously straight-tempered, so how could he tolerate Lian Jing, the "son of the enemy", continuing to serve under his command?

Lian Jing started to panic, and said, "Then what can General Le Qi do?"

Le Qi chuckled, and said, "Of course there is a way, it's what I just told you."

Lian Jing understood: "Is it to defeat the Xiongnu army outside Pingyin City?"

Le Qi nodded heavily, and said: "It is precisely as long as you and I defeat the Huns, then we will be the heroes of Da Zhao, and we will definitely be promoted by the Queen Mother.

At that time, I will let my elder brother Le Cheng say some good things in it, and promote you and me to Handan, so we don't have to worry about being angry with Zhao Kuo? "

Lian Jing opened his mouth wide and said after a while: "Then what about Wu Xinjun?

His order." Le Qi directly interrupted Lian Jing: "What order, we didn't receive it at all. When we make great achievements, what can he do to us even if he sues the Queen Mother?

Think about it carefully, why did the Queen Mother assign Zhao Kuo to the north when she knew that Zhao Kuo was the No. 1 general in the world?

Hmph, when it comes to suing, Zhao Kuo will never be able to win us."

Lian Jing pondered for a long time, finally gritted his teeth and made up his mind: "Forget it, since the general said so, let's do it this time."

Lian Jing was persuaded by Le Qi, determined to disobey Zhao Kuo's order and attack the Huns in advance

Chapter 560 Show Zhao Kuo some color

Outside Pingyin City, 999 Xiongnu troops were entrenched, all of them murderous, and their formations were scattered. [-]xue

There was a burst of shouting, and under the order of the general Xiongnu, many Hun cavalry rushed up and attacked Pingyin City.

After rushing to the foot of Pingyin City, the defenders on the city shot arrows, but the Huns dodged them flexibly by relying on the speed of their mounts. Only a few slower Hun cavalry were shot.

The Huns cavalry took out their bows and arrows and shot at the city wall. These Huns had long been used to riding and shooting, but a shower of arrows caused a lot of screams from the city wall.

Zhao Jun's archers on the city wall were suppressed, and the number of arrows shot down from the city wall decreased significantly.

The Huns laughed wildly when they saw this, galloping their horses around the city, billowing smoke and dust.

There were also Huns who tried to climb the city, but were quickly beaten down, and several corpses fell from the air and landed with a bang.

In terms of close combat, the weakness of the Huns is quite obvious.

In the distance, the three Hun patriarchs watched this scene, and the atmosphere was not very good.

The head of the Huyan clan said lightly: "Look, there are only [-] defenders in Pingyin City, but we have been besieging it for three days and there is still no movement.

Let me tell you, we've got enough loot this time, and it's time to retreat. "

The patriarch of the Lan clan snorted, and said angrily: "This city has killed hundreds of our Lan clan warriors, how can we just give up?"

The head of the Huyan clan sneered and said, "What are a few hundred people?

Haven't you seen that the soldiers just want to return to the grassland as soon as possible with their goods?

They have no motivation to die here. "

At this moment, a scout from the Xiongnu came on horseback and said loudly: "Patriarch, I found that Zhao Jun's [-] cavalry are rapidly approaching us, and the distance is only ten miles away."

The expressions of the three patriarchs changed at the same time.

The clan chief of the Lan clan said angrily, "What are you scouts doing, that the Zhao people didn't realize it until they got so close?"

The head of the Huyan clan took a deep breath and said, "Let's not stay here any longer, let's retreat quickly."

The head of the Lan clan collected his mind, sneered and said, "Withdraw, how to withdraw?

Which one of our three tribes doesn't bring a lot of spoils and slaves? If we don't throw these away, do you think we can outrun Zhao's cavalry? "

The head of the Huyan clan was silent, and after a while he said: "Then what should we do?"

The head of the Lan clan said coldly: "What else can I do?

Stop the siege first.

If the Zhao people don't press hard, we can retreat slowly.

If the Zhao people want to fight us to the death, then we will fight them, so why not? "

The distance of ten miles is fast and fast.

As soon as the Xiongnu's siege troops withdrew back, the [-] Zhao Kingdom Frontier Cavalry Corps led by Le Qi and Lian Jing appeared.

Lian Jing was still a little apprehensive, and said, "General Le Qi, are we really going to disobey Lord Wu Xin's order and go to war with the Huns?"

Yes, yes, but Lian Jing always thinks of his father's instructions, the eldest son who has never disobeyed his father's orders since childhood is still quite uneasy.

Looking at Lian Jing's expression, Le Qi couldn't help but a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes.

Looking forward and backward, how can we achieve great things?

Why has the Lian family only had one Lian Po for so many years, while the Le family has been able to dominate the Yanzhao political arena, producing talents such as Le Yi, Le Cheng, and Le Jian? This is because of the gap in ideas between the two parties. Thinking of becoming the fourth famous official of the Le family to be recorded in the annals of history, the idea in Le Qi's heart couldn't help but become firmer.

Le Qi said slowly: "General Lian Jing, now we have led our troops here, and the [-] soldiers in the army know that our mission is to defeat the Huns.

The miserable situation of the people of Zhao along the way has already made these soldiers very angry.

Now you suddenly say that you want to stop attacking or even retreat and wait for the arrival of Wu Xinjun. Do you think these soldiers can agree?

If it triggers a mutiny in the army, what should we do?

Besides, if you go back on your word, I won't be able to explain it to Brother Le Cheng in Handan. "

After Le Qi finished speaking, which was partly persuasion and partly threatening, Lian Jing's expression suddenly changed again, knowing that he had been cornered by Le Qi.

In desperation, Lian Jing gritted his teeth and said, "Okay then, just as General Le Qi said, continue to fight the Huns."

Le Qi laughed, and patted Lian Jing on the shoulder: "General Lian Jing, don't worry, this time you and I join forces, we must make Zhao Kuo stunned."

The fact that Da Sima Lecheng was slapped in the face by Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo many times in the past year has already spread throughout the Zhao country, and of course it reached Leqi's ears.

For Le Qi, Zhao Kuo's behavior is undoubtedly intolerable, and he must express his anger for Le Qi and show Zhao Kuo some color.

There is even a vague fantasy in Le Qi's heart. Le Cheng, who represents Le Shi, was slapped in the face by Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo. If I, Le Qi, can use this time's military exploits to slap Zhao Kuo hard, will it be? Being valued by the queen mother's eyes to become the new leader of the Le family and even Zhao's military circle in the future?

Under such fantasies, Le Qi began to give orders.

After issuing orders one after another, Zhao's cavalry began to line up in a fighting posture and slowly moved towards Pingyin City.

This scene was taken for granted by the three chief Huns outside Pingyin City.

The patriarch of the Huyan clan said with an extremely ugly face: "The people of Zhao Guo are really going to war with us."

The Patriarch of the Xubu Clan was also a little panicked, and said: "Zhao is the most powerful country in the world after all, the outcome of this battle is unpredictable."

The head of the Lan clan's eyes flickered, and suddenly he laughed loudly: "Everyone, from today onwards, we Huns will be a powerful tribe that can defeat the most powerful country in the world."

Although there were many Huns generals around, only the generals of the Lan family laughed a few times, and the atmosphere was not enthusiastic.

The chief of the Huyan clan said angrily: "Patriarch Lan, you were the one who advocated the attack on Pingyin City at the beginning, but now that the Zhao people have really come, can you do anything other than laugh?"

The head of the Lan clan looked around disdainfully, and said: "A group of people who are afraid of death come here, and I will tell you a clever plan. As long as we follow my method, we will definitely be able to defeat the Zhao people."

The head of the Lan clan said this and that, the heads of the Huyan clan and the Xubu clan looked at each other with obvious doubts on their faces.

"Patriarch Lan, can this plan really succeed?"

The head of the Lan clan snorted and said, "Don't you have a better way?

If you have something to say, just say it, and I will do as you say."

The two patriarchs of the Xubu clan and the Huyan clan were silent for a moment.

Suddenly, a sharp sound of arrows came to the ears of the three of them, and the three of them turned their heads to look, and found that on the plain not far away, Zhao Jun had already started to attack

Chapter 561

Le Qi was very confident, and launched an attack immediately after contacting the Huns. dianfeng

In this regard, Lian Jing naturally raised his opinion: "General, our army has come from a long-distance attack. Both the knights and the mounts are quite tired. Why don't we rest for a night before attacking?"

Le Qi glared at Lian Jing, and said coldly: "General Lian Jing, are you teaching me how to do things?"

Lian Jing was suddenly dumbfounded.

Although aggrieved, Lian Jing had to admit that he really didn't dare to teach Le Qi to do things.

Le Qi snorted, and said lightly: "Don't worry, I have 2 troops in Da Zhao. Could it be that I can't beat the [-] Huns?"

Although he wished for Zhao Kuo's death, Le Qi had to admit that a large part of his self-confidence actually came from the fact that Zhao Kuo had personally trained the [-] Zhao Guobian riders under his command.

Using 2 Zhao border cavalry trained by Wu Xinjun to fight more than [-] Xiongnu barbarian cavalry, isn't this an easy victory?

At least Le Qi himself thinks so.

What makes Le Qi even more happy is that if he wins, he will use the troops trained by Zhao Kuo to hit Zhao Kuo in the face. Outflank towards the Huns' flank.

Confidence is self-confidence, but Le Qi is not so stupid as to directly fight a decisive battle with the Huns.

Unlike infantry, light cavalry battles often come from archery. As for the way of Chi Youjun under Zhao Kuo's command to use their heavy armor to make a tough charge as a means of decisive victory, it is definitely a heterogeneous among heterogeneous.

Even if it is as strong as Zhao Guo, there is no [-] sets of heavy armor for Leqi's other side. The clan chief of the Lan clan has persuaded the other two clan chiefs to successfully serve as the generals of the coalition forces of the three major tribes of the Huns.

Facing this scene, the clan chief of the Lan clan also issued orders calmly: "Clan chief Xubu, clan chief Huyan, each of you send [-] troops to fight.

Remember, you don't need the most elite soldiers and horses, but you must have the most flexible generals to lead them. If you want to withdraw as soon as you want, understand? "

The other two patriarchs looked at each other, nodded at the same time, and ordered people to pass the order.
