I tried my best to help Zulong, and finally got my wife

"Brother, you were a centurion back then, you have the final say, our brothers all crawled out of the dead, and we were afraid of a ball."

"Yes, unite with the old things in the nearby villages, copy the guys, and go to the Zhao people."

The silver-haired, limping old man took out a bronze sword from home, as if he had returned to the time when he was young and criss-crossing the battlefield.

Swinging the bronze sword, he roared: "This is the weapon that was bestowed on the old man by the court. Today, the old man is taking it, leading you, and going back to the battlefield again, killing the people of Zhao, and defending the homeland."

"Kill, kill, kill..."

A few old men who were either missing arms or legs, or had scars all over their faces, erupted a frightening murderous aura at this moment.

"Let's go to the next village, greet Li Youcai and the others, and go chase Zhao's cavalry together..."

A dozen or so old men in this village formed a private organization, carrying hoes, hunting bows and arrows, and sharpened long sticks, and walked out of the village in a mighty manner.

At the same time, whenever Li Mu passed through counties or villages, and anyone who was seen by others, those old men who had been on the battlefield all organized by coincidence.

They chased after Li Mu's cavalry.

……

"Quickly open the city gate, there is important news to report to the king!"

In the dark night, more than a dozen scouts rushed from a distance, and when they arrived at the city, they roared anxiously.

The soldiers guarding the city in Meiyang County opened the city gate immediately after the general gave the order, and several scouts ran wildly in the city and came to the county magistrate's mansion.

At this moment, the magistrate's office in Meiyang County has been requisitioned, and it has become the shogunate where Ying Zheng commands the army, and it can also be regarded as a temporary palace.

Qin Wang Yingzheng left [-] troops in Xianyang to guard Xianyang City, with Yao Jia personally sitting in charge.

And when he came here with an army of [-], he learned that Li Mu had crossed the old capital Yongcheng, so he directly deployed the army in Meiyang County and Tai County. The distance between the two counties is less than [-] miles, one south and one north , connected to each other.

Regardless of whether Li Mu passed through Meiyang County or Tai County, the armies of the two counties were ready for reinforcements at any time.

Meiyang County and Tai County are both two counties set up in the middle of the east of Yongcheng and west of Xianyang in the 12th year of Emperor Xiaogong of Qin Dynasty. They are currently under the management of Neishifu and are important places in Gyeonggi.

In this place, mountains, plateaus, rivers, and beaches are all included. There are thousands of mountains extending in the north, superimposed high mountains and steep mountains, deep valleys and rivers in the center, and wide rivers and plains in the south, forming a complex and diverse topography.

"Your Majesty, after Li Mu's army passed through Yong City, they beheaded our army's scouts and suddenly disappeared..."

The visitor was dripping with sweat, and his eyes were full of panic.

All the ministers stood up, breathing a little shortly.

The king led them to prepare for so long, but Li Mu suddenly disappeared. If he bypassed their arrangement and went straight to Xianyang, then Xianyang might really be captured, because Xianyang city only has [-] defenders.

"Your Majesty, withdraw your troops and return to Xianyang!"

The prime minister, Wang Wan, stood up immediately. Although the [-] cavalry led by Li Mu were not good at attacking the city, they would inevitably cause panic to the people in Xianyang City. Once they were used by spies from other countries, unnecessary casualties would be caused and the losses would be considerable .

Li Si stood up, glanced at Wang Wan, and said, "Your Majesty, it's not time to go back to aid Xianyang. The most important thing right now is to find out where Li Mu is."

"Xianyang City has thick walls and a moat. Li Mu is not that stupid. Li Mu said that he came to attack Xianyang, but it was just a bluff. Li Mu's purpose is to let the army of Qin State besieging Zhao State retreat and return to aid Xianyang. That's all."

"So, Li Mu will only show off his power near Xianyang, but he dare not approach Xianyang, let alone attack Xianyang."

Wang Wan frowned and said, "Master Fengchang, what if Li Mu prepares to attack Xianyang City with the determination to die? Only in this way can we be frightened and the army that attacked Handan of Zhao State can be withdrawn to help."

Li Si: "..."

Li Si didn't argue with Wang Wan, because only he and Yao Jia knew what Qin Wang Yingzheng had arranged on the Xianyang city tower?

When those things were experimented on the school field, he was shocked. He had never seen such a powerful magic weapon.

Arrows as thick as rafters have a range of more than 400 meters, can easily penetrate a one-meter-thick earth wall, and can shoot through a war horse alive, let alone a person.

There is also the large trebuchet, which can throw a big stone weighing one stone, not to mention people, even war horses were smashed to death.

Li Mu had better not go to Xianyang City to demonstrate, otherwise, hehe...

Qin Wang Yingzheng was expressionless, sitting calmly behind the table, flipping through the battle reports from everywhere, sometimes frowning, and sometimes showing joy on his face.

He didn't care about the minister's disputes and Xianyang's safety at all.

Chapter 200 Yao Jia is arrogant, Li Mu is angry

"Report..."

In the middle of the night, the scouts came to report again, saying that Li Mu had crossed the Weihe River and went to Xianyang from the south bank of the Weihe River.

Qin Wang Yingzheng was stunned for a moment, and finally put down the bamboo slips in his hand, stood up and stretched, and said with a smile, "As expected of Li Mu, he has a keen sense of the battlefield."

"If you didn't send scouts to check, you can know that the widow has set up an army here to wait for him. It would be great if such good generals could be used by the widow!"

The ministers were very anxious, and Wang Wan suggested again: "Your Majesty, let's go back to Xianyang!"

Ying Zheng nodded, and said, "Since Li Mu has bypassed the widow, there is no need for the widow to stay here. I will send an order to the army to return to Xianyang tomorrow morning."

Everyone was puzzled, this is imminent, the king is still so calm?

The soldiers are very fast, and they will start again tomorrow morning. When they arrive in Xianyang, the city of Xianyang has been breached.

Li Si stepped forward and suggested, "Your Majesty, can you divide up your troops?"

Ying Zheng looked at Li Si and asked, "How to divide the troops?"

Li Si said with a smile: "Your Majesty's personal conquest, in order to inspire people, the news has spread in Xianyang, so Li Mu may not know about it, but when Li Mu arrives in Xianyang, he will definitely get the news. I am afraid that Li Mu will come to attack us."

"And our goal is to block Li Mu's cavalry. Putting 3 people together is not conducive to blocking Li Mu's cavalry. At the same time, the king's safety is not safe."

"Therefore, I suggest that Your Majesty divide the troops into three groups, march along the foot of Qianshan Mountain all the way to prevent Li Mu from escaping north, march along the north bank of the Weihe River to Xianyang, and march from the south bank of the Weihe River to Xianyang."

"In order to protect the safety of the king, the king can cross the river from the south bank of the Weihe River to Xianyang."

Ying Zheng nodded and said with a smile, "This arrangement is very good!"

Li Mu's army went to Xianyang from the south bank of the Weihe River, and Xianyang was to the north of the Weihe River. In order to frighten Qin's monarchs and ministers, Li Mu would definitely cross the Weihe River again and arrive at the city of Xianyang to show off his power.

When Li Mu learns that Yingzheng is in the direction of Yongcheng, he will definitely come to attack Yingzheng.

Ying Zheng was thinking darkly, but do you, Li Mu, know where the widow is?

Because the widow is divided into three groups, how do you know which team the widow is in? If you are capable, you Li Mu will also divide the army?

Ying Zheng read the battle report. Generally speaking, the general trend of the war is still beneficial to Qin, but this time the war against Zhao is still a bit heavy. Compared with the budget, the casualties are much greater.

But that's all acceptable.

The only thing that made Yingzheng very upset was the state of Chu.

Qin State has a total of four grain-growing places, which can be called granaries. They are Guanzhong, Shudi, and Hedong County (in Henan Province, on the north and south banks of the Yellow River), and the last one is the Yunmeng Plain.

This damned relative, Chu State, secretly bit Qin State hard, taking away the land of Yunmeng that Qin State took with great difficulty back then.

Xiang Yan, an old man, has gone all the way north and has already attacked Nanyang Road. He is about to attack Wuguan. If Wuguan is broken, Xianyang will be in danger.

Fortunately, the [-] troops deployed by Zhang He in the north have arrived at Wuguan to guard them, which also made Ying Zheng heave a sigh of relief.

When Handan is broken and the state of Zhao is destroyed, I just want to see, King Chu, what else can you say?

"Zhao Gao..."

Zhao Gao quickly came to Ying Zheng's side, knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, my servant is here."

"Let the trappers order Yao Jia to kill Li Mu for the widow at all costs."

"Also, send someone to inform Wang Jian to break through Handan quickly, and let him go directly south, attack Wei State all the way, and go straight to Shouchun, the capital of Chu State, so that the King of Chu will be happy too!"

Zhao Gao hurriedly wrote the decree, and after showing it to the king, he can be sent out.

King Qin Yingzheng didn't sleep all night, he went to his room to rest when he heard the chickens outside began to crow.

The sky is bright.

Yingzheng also followed the army to the south bank of the Weihe River, preparing to go to Xianyang from the south bank of the Weihe River, and all the troops from all walks of life were deployed.

At the same time, Li Mu led an army of [-] troops to the vicinity of Xianyang, looking for shallows, preparing to cross the river, and approaching the city of Xianyang.

As the sun rose, Li Mu's army successfully crossed the Weihe River, and Li Mu finally breathed a sigh of relief. He finally achieved his goal, approaching the city and threatening Xianyang.

Taking advantage of the morning light, the army rushed to the city of Xianyang covering the sky and covering the sun.

As Li Mu expected, the west gate of Xianyang City was closed tightly, and the defenders on the tower were running around as if they were facing a big enemy. The suspension bridge on the moat had already been hoisted high.

Not far from the city gate, defenses such as horse refusal posts were also set up.

A rare smile appeared on Li Mu's face, and he said to Lin Yi, the lieutenant beside him, "Nephew, go ahead and tell them to open the door and surrender, otherwise we will attack the city."

"The end general will go and call out immediately."

With hundreds of cavalry, Lin Yi stepped forward slowly, removed the horse-rejecting posts and other objects, and stopped at a distance of 300 meters, because this distance was safe.

In their cognition, the furthest distance between Qin people's crossbows and trebuchets was more than 200 meters.

"Listen, Qin guards in the city, you are already surrounded, open the city and surrender quickly, Rao Er will not die, if you resist in the corner, we will attack the city gate, and no one will be left behind."

Yao Jia spent the whole night guarding on the city tower last night, his eyelids started to fight when he was sleepy, but when it was dawn, Li Mu's army hadn't arrived in Xianyang City yet.

But news came from the King's side last night that Li Mu ran away from the south bank of the Weihe River, and did not get into the ambush circle.

As soon as the meeting closed his eyes, Li Mu, an old man, came and disturbed people's sleep, and he died badly.

Hearing Zhao Jun shouting from the bottom of the city, Yao Jia hurriedly climbed up the tower and looked down the city. There were all cavalry in the dark, murderous.

"We're surrounded?"

"It's just you with [-] cavalry, and you still surround Xianyang City? Before you said this, you didn't know how big Xianyang City is?"

Yao Jia said coldly to the soldiers around him, "Tell them, attack the city if you can. We only have [-] defenders, and they are distributed in four directions."

"If you don't have the ability, get out as soon as possible, lest they be surrounded and killed, we have to collect their bodies."

Then, Yao Jia yawned, turned around and went to the place where he was sleeping just now, and continued to sleep.

Li Mu's sneak attack on Xianyang City was a joke. If they didn't know the news, they might be in a hurry for a while, but they already knew it, so there is no reason not to defend themselves.

At the same time, he sighed secretly, Xiang Yan is a pig teammate, if he charged all the way without hesitating casualties, broke through Wuguan and led hundreds of thousands of troops into Guanzhong, Xianyang might be lost.

It's a pity that Xiang Yan is still marching on Nanyang Road now!

They were also led by the nobles of Sichuan, Shu, and Han to cut off the food and grass, and now they are probably too busy to take care of themselves.

"Listen Zhao Jun under the city. The Taiwei of Daqin said that if you want to attack the city, you should attack the city immediately. You are like a woman, disturbing the Taiwei's sleep. If you don't have the ability, do it as soon as possible Get out, lest you be beaten to death after being surrounded, we have to collect your corpse..."

Lin Yi: "..."

The guards around Lin Yi said angrily: "General, Qin people are too arrogant, attack the city, show them some color..."

"General, the general is willing to take the lead."

……

Lin Yi also said angrily: "Don't regret it, then wait for Zhao Jun to open the city gate and capture King Qin alive."

Lin Yi was annoyed, there was no way to scold the city, so she turned around and went back to work.

Li Mu, who was far away, was puzzled in his heart. The soldiers on the tower just said that the guards above were Great Qin Taiwei Yao Jia, but did not mention Ying Zheng. Could it be that Ying Zheng is not in Xianyang City?

But looking at the arrogant attitude of the soldiers on the city, we can also judge that Ying Zheng may have left Xianyang. Isn't the plan to surround Xianyang greatly compromised?

If King Qin is not in Xianyang, it is meaningless to surround Xianyang City, and the Qin army will not return to aid Xianyang.

At this time, Zhao Guo's spies in Xianyang finally reported the news to Li Mu.

After Li Mu heard this, he was furious. He actually missed the chance to capture Ying Zheng alive.

Yingzheng was just to the east of Yongcheng, ambush himself, but he was clever and was mistaken by cleverness, so he took a detour to Xianyang.

What should we do now?

Li Mu started to have a headache!

Chapter 201 Yao Jia: Li Mu Welcome to Xianyang for a Day Trip

Lin Yi came to Li Mu's side and asked, "General, what should we do now?"

Li Mu glanced at the tall towers of Xianyang City, and said coldly, "Try to attack the city!"

"Since Yingzheng is not in Xianyang City, Xianyang City must be very empty, and now Yingzheng must be on his way to Xianyang."

"Nephew Lin Yi, send about a thousand scouts to inquire about the news of King Qin Yingzheng. Once King Qin Yingzheng approaches us, we will immediately turn around and fight the reinforcements where King Qin Yingzheng is."

"Yes……"
