The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire - Chapter 190

[Chapter 188 The situation is surging]

The state of Yan has six counties, except for the three counties in eastern Liaodong.

There are also three counties in Yuyang, Shanggu and Guangyang to the west of him.

These three counties are densely populated, twice as many as the three eastern counties, with about 1,340,000 people.

According to the current state of extreme warfare prevailing in the Warring States period, he can almost dispatch nearly 300,000 troops, which is no weaker than the army of the Royal Kingdom, which has annexed the two counties of Eastern Liaoning and Western Liaoning, and has a strength of about 300,000.

Of course, the 300,000 troops of the Yan State are also used to guard against the Huns in the north, Qi and Zhao in the south, which requires nearly 100,000 people to be apportioned, plus some people from various places to stay behind. Also want him 20,000 to 30,000 people.

Therefore, it is only about 150,000 troops that can really gather in the capital of Yan Kingdom.

With only 150,000 people, another 120,000 or 20,000 people will be left to stay in the capital. If they really want to go out, they can only send 120,000 to 30,000 people.

Sending this person to attack Zhong Yu’s more than 200,000 soldiers and horses is completely to deliver food, which is why King Yan agreed, and the reason why Yan Chunjun and Yan Yi proposed.

Through the information he knows, he naturally understands his own strength. Under the circumstance that the enemy has seized the opportunity, it is very impossible to repel the enemy or even regain the lost territory, and there is little hope.

Therefore, it is better to mobilize the army of the whole country. At that time, under the capital, there will also be his army of 150,000 staying behind, occupying the geographical advantage of defending the city, and being in the hinterland of his own.

At that time, the reinforcements and resources of the whole country can be continuously transported to the capital, and the enemy will accept the Yan Kingdom and continue to attack everywhere.

Slowly fell into the people’s maritime war, and finally collapsed, unable to retreat, and even took the opportunity to retake the lost territory and restore the land of Yan State to the scale before the war.

At that time, although there will be fewer people, as long as the land is still there, the population will still have a certain foundation, and it will only take ten or twenty years to recover.

About a month later, Zhong Yu had already digested the two counties in Eastern Liaoning and Western Liaoning, because the north and east of the two counties were the territory of Yuguo, and naturally they did not need to be defended.

To the south and west, either the sea or the territory of Yan State.

Among them, the territory of the State of Yan was exactly what he was going to expedition to next.

Therefore, in addition to leaving some necessary garrison troops, out of the nearly 100,000 troops originally surrendered from the State of Yan in the other two counties, 80,000 were transferred to follow the remaining 200,000 troops of the Royal Kingdom and march toward the capital of the State of Yan.

On the way, the 20,000 defenders of Yan State’s Youbeiping County resisted a little, but they were pacified immediately. Zhong Yu only used the 80,000 troops to attack the city, and the casualties were less than 10,000. the entire county.

Then in Youbeiping County, some strong men were dispatched to fill the army, and he gathered his army of 300,000, and marched mighty towards the capital of Yan Kingdom.

When Zhong Yu’s army approached the city, completely surrounded all directions of the Yan Kingdom’s capital, and surrounded him densely, the Yan Kingdom’s 150,000 troops also arrived at the capital just in time.

The war is about to break out, and it is still unknown who will win the last victory in this battle.

The other six countries in the south of the Yan Kingdom also learned through their intelligence channels that a war that was enough to destroy the country was taking place in the Yan Kingdom in their north at this moment.

In the country of Qin, at this moment in the Xianyang Palace, Qin Huang Ying Zheng is a complete adult. He is in his twenties and can’t wait to grasp the original rights that belonged to the Qin King.

But there is a big mountain in front of him, Lu Buwei, this legendary name, from a mere merchant, through the rare goods, has climbed to the prime minister of Qin, the most powerful country in the world, sealed the marquis, and the power In power and opposition, become a man who can shake the situation of the whole world.

His existence has threatened, and he has gradually been able to rule Ying Zheng independently. This young king has an incomparably huge ambition in his heart.

In order to realize this ambition, he had to master all the power he could, so he had already planned a plan to eradicate Lu Buwei a few years ago.

Through a series of struggles, he has captured a considerable part of the Qin state. Although it is still insufficient to deal with Lu Buwei, he believes that as long as he is given another two or three years, the entire Qin state will be under his control. .

“Yuguo, this is such a country. It can send 200,000 troops to force the Yan Kingdom to such a level that it can almost be said that as long as the loss is not counted, the Yan Kingdom can be taken!”

Ying Zheng sat on his throne and looked at him sharply. The ministers above the court were full of reproach and questioning. The dignified Qin Empire was not even a powerful country that suddenly appeared. You know, the intelligence department is really negligent.

“Your Majesty, according to our investigations from various aspects of Qin, it seems that it just emerged last year, but it has unstoppably annihilated the Donghu people and Jizi Korea, the two forces in the northern part of the Yan Kingdom.

And quickly brought them into the rule, and he appeared out of nowhere, and there were millions of his people, as if they suddenly appeared, UU reading www.uukanshu.com There is no basis to find!

”

As the prime minister, Lu Buwei naturally has the confidence to meet Ying Zheng’s questioning at the moment. He has enough confidence that Ying Zheng in front of him can’t do anything to him!

“So, Father Zhong wants to tell me that these millions of people appeared out of thin air? Could it be that this Yuguo is a ghost?” In the depths of Ying Zheng’s eyes, a flash of coldness flashed, anyone who dared to offend his own dignity, It is impossible to live in the world.

“Officially, it’s not to deceive Your Majesty, it’s just that this Imperial Kingdom really appeared suddenly before. Qin’s intelligence department has always been concentrated in the Six Kingdoms. It is really powerless to spy on the grassland people in the north, and it is difficult to integrate into these grassland barbarians. It must be a country further north than the prairie tribes in the East Lake, a country that has been invaded downward!” Lu Buwei explained to Ying Zheng the shortcomings of Qin’s intelligence department, and expressed his own guesses.

“Since this is the case, then give me more spying, allocate more power to the north, and be sure to find out for me the reason for the emergence of this imperial country, and what kind of strength he is, and will be with my Qin country’s strategy of dominating the world. , what kind of influence and conflict arises!” Ying Zheng finally said sharply, still not making up his mind to take action against Lu Buwei in front of him, now is not the time.

Turning to this question, Ying Zheng had deep fear in his heart for the country that had just appeared in the north, as if this country was his own nemesis, enough to threaten the existence of Qin.

At the same time, various countries and schools in the world also started one after another meeting and spying for the Yuguo that had just emerged.

Wave after wave of spies slowly gathered to Yuguo from all over the world, lurking.

And Zhong Yu, who was stirring up the world, was leading his army at the moment, preparing for the first strategy of attacking the country of Yan.
