The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire - Chapter 335

[Chapter 330 The hidden dangers of various countries]

?? There is such a country of Yue in the back of the state of Chu. Although its strength is not as strong as that of the state of Chu, it is not too weak. With the support of the antenna, it can continue to bleed with the state of Chu, and slowly drag the state of Chu into the abyss. , doomed.

Zhao State in the north, there is a Qin State in the east, and although Qin State does not dare to be rough, it is also a huge deterrent to Zhao State.

And Wei State, although it also has the threat of Qin State, but the pressure is not as great as Zhao State after all.

Therefore, we must find something to do for him, involve Wei State’s energy, hold him back, and keep bleeding him.

And that object, the rebels who are now rebelling in Tao County, is the most suitable.

“It’s time to make another pottery country!”

Zhong Yu was in the dark tent, holding his forehead in his hands, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he had an idea.

Use Tao County to contain Wei State and delay Wei State’s footsteps, because Tao County is near the capital of Wei State, and the two sides are very close, and they can endanger the state capital of Wei State at any time.

Therefore, the Wei Kingdom will never let this great enemy go, and will definitely concentrate all its forces to destroy him.

And Tao County’s rebels, for their own survival, will inevitably fight to the death, so both sides will continue to consume until one side falls.

However, although he wanted to support Tao Jun’s rebels and let him fight against Wei, he couldn’t let him, an ally of Wei, come forward.

But the surrounding area of Tao County is either the State of Chu or the State of Wei, and the only one bordering it is the State of Qi, which has been beaten badly.

In addition, in the middle of Qi State, there is Xue County, which was occupied by the coalition forces, blocking traffic, and it is not easy to communicate.

Therefore, in order to solve this trouble, Zhong Yu planned to completely withdraw the defenders of Xue County and gather all the troops to the current front line.

As for the ownership of Xuejun, Wei can give it to Wei if he wants, but it is estimated that Wei does not want to take it. Now that he can’t even destroy the rebels in the country, he has no intention of doing this.

And the rebels in Xue County were even more afraid. A large army of Wei State made them devastated and difficult to deal with. How could they dare to take this hot potato and offend the coalition forces and Qi State.

Therefore, it can only be accepted by Qi State.

Presumably the Qi army in Langya County, the local defender, should have some ideas about the credit for recovering a county!

This also happened to disperse Qi’s troops and horses, so that those Qi troops who were resisting him head-on became scattered and weakened.

As expected, when the defenders of Xue County withdrew, the rebel army that was resisting in Langya County immediately divided 100,000 people, took the entire Xue County, and regained the rule of Qi.

And the remnants of Qi who were hiding in the mountains and forests of Xuejun, who were hunted by the coalition forces, heard that the motherland had regained Xuejun, they were overjoyed, ran out of the mountains and forests, and returned to their homeland.

Their appearance made Xue Jun have a headache, and there was no guard who should be managed by the people. He was overjoyed and overjoyed.

He quickly dispatched his subordinates to settle them down, invited them back to their homeland, and resumed production. However, within a month or so, the entire Xue County became a little more popular, returning to a population of 40,000 or 50,000.

Although it is no longer the heyday of the previous 800,000 population, it is still much better than being empty.

In Langya County, the original coalition forces also withdrew, and gave up half of the county they originally occupied to the defenders of Langya County.

To their surprise, they recovered the whole county without a single soldier, which is a big credit.

Well, with this, Zhong Yu also achieved his goal, using two counties to hold back about 250,000 soldiers and horses of Qi State, making them unable to move.

Unless they don’t want the place they just recovered, otherwise, their army of 250,000 will absolutely not be able to mobilize.

After evacuating all the coalition forces guarding the territory occupied by Qi State and gathering them to the front line, Zhong Yu finally had an army of 300,000 people on the front line.

On the opposite side of them, that is, Linzi County, there are only a mere 150,000 troops.

With an advantage in numbers and morale, plus the looting in Qi State for so long, and the equipment is not much different, Zhong Yu finally has enough confidence and starts to attack.

Although it was in the middle of winter, snow and ice came, and the earth was chilled.

However, most of Zhong Yu’s subordinates were from the northern kingdom, and the Yan kingdom also lived in the northern border for a long time, and was quite cold-resistant.

So he picked out some of the more elite soldiers and horses, that is, most of them were people with deep inner strength and not afraid of severe cold.

It has become an elite army of 50,000 people.

They used the best armor and the best anti-cold clothes, and took them to brave the cold winter and snow, and launched a surprise attack on Qi.

However, on the 3rd, all the cities of Linzi County were occupied except Linzi City, and Linzi City was also surrounded.

As for this news, Xue County, Jiaodong County and Langya County of Qi State,

But they were all kept in the dark and didn’t know it.

The road closed by heavy snow made the transmission of news more and more difficult. Zhong Yu estimated that people in these counties wanted to get news, UU reading www.uukanshu.

com at least half a month.

And if they want to mobilize troops and horses for support, it will take at least two or three months, and it will not help at that time.

Then, without any foreign aid, Linzi, which was completely isolated, ushered in a nightmare.

The 300,000 coalition forces surrounded him and surrounded him so tightly that the outer corridor was densely packed with torches, and within the snow and ice, it became a spectacle.

The entire city, from the princes and nobles to the common people, all fell into a panic.

King Qi was frightened and sent an envoy to ask for peace, which he could accept no matter what the conditions were.

In this regard, Zhong Yu agreed to ask for peace, but there was only one request, that the state of Qi would withdraw from Linzi County and cede it to the state of Yan.

Otherwise, there is only one battle.

However, when the time comes, it will be difficult for him to guarantee the lives of Qi, including the King of Qi.

The state of Qi was indignant at this condition, and the people in the courtroom were enthusiastic.

However, all of this came to nothing with a siege by the coalition forces outside.

Zhong Yu understood that it was absolutely impossible for King Qi to give up his capital and his foundation in empty words.

If you don’t hurt him, let him understand that if he doesn’t do this, there is only one way to go, and he will not give in.

So Zhong Yu directly sent troops to attack the city, even if it is extremely cold now, let alone fighting, ordinary people may freeze to death even if they walk outside a few times.

But he still insisted on sieging the city, using the 50,000 elites with strong cold resistance as the main force.

Sure enough, these people have a miraculous effect as soon as they come on the field.

The defenders of Qi State, standing on the city wall, had the advantage of a geographically advantageous defense, and torches were lit around them, adding a little warmth to them.

But even so, he was still shivering from the cold, and he couldn’t even hold his weapon, let alone fight.

So after they saw the actions of the coalition forces, they were all stunned.
