In Qin Dynasty, the hero of the bright moon dominates the world

Chapter 550 Hesitation
The Great Wall was broken, and the three Qin armies went straight to Jicheng.

And the fastest is the five thousand Taiyuan army.

Qin army camp.

Ju Wu walked into the camp step by step. As the envoy of the peace talks of the Yan Kingdom, he was also a person who knew the strength of the Qin army. When he first entered the camp, he was shocked.

This place is less than fifty miles away from Jicheng, and the edge of war is already very close.Ju Wuyuan thought that marching at such a fast speed, the five thousand Taiyuan troops should have been exhausted.

At least, it won't be as energetic as it is now.

According to Yan Jun's intelligence, the Taiyuan Army has [-] troops.

When Meng Ao captured Taiyuan, after several rebellions, it became the sphere of influence of the Lu Buwei-Zhao Ji alliance.

Later, the alliance between Lu Buwei and Zhao Ji survived in name only, and Lao Ai was granted the title of Marquis of Che, and established the Kingdom of Ai, and Taiyuan County was within the scope of his feudal country.

However, this Ai Kingdom existed for a relatively short period of time. With the rebellion in Qinian Palace, Ai Ai's power was completely wiped out.Afterwards, the Lu Buwei-Zhao Ji Alliance, who had been in charge of the state of Qin for more than ten years, also withdrew from the state of Qin.

Not long ago, Zhao Ji died of illness, declaring that the once prominent political alliance had completely become a thing of the past.

After the death of Lao Ai, Taiyuan was restored as a county.Taiyuan was once the birthplace of Zhao State, and Jinyang, the capital, is now an important town in the northern part of Qin State.

Because of Taiyuan's special location, and therefore, Qin State raised a heavy army there.

The backbone of the lieutenant generals and schools of the Taiyuan Army are mostly from aristocratic families.Most of the [-] troops were pawns from Shangdang, Taiyuan, Yanmen, Hedong and other counties, and the most elite were the [-] elite soldiers in front of Ju Wu.

Whether a soldier can be rated as elite depends not only on his martial arts, but more importantly on his equipment.

Weapons, armor, horses, what kind of equipment a soldier uses can show what kind of army he is in, and even know the financial resources of the supporters behind it?
The more Ju Wu walked in, the more surprised he felt.Seeing that Zhao Shuang's big tent was approaching, he hesitated instead.

Taiyuan fine armor soldiers, as can be seen from the name, these five thousand soldiers are all elites equipped with fine armor.

But it's not like Ju Wu doesn't know how expensive a pair of fine armor is.Ordinary armor is priced at two or two gold, while the price of fine armor is at least three times that, and the price fluctuates greatly.

In the entire Yan Kingdom, only the [-] guards in the palace can make everyone wear fine armor.

But now Ju Wu personally saw that the soldiers in this barracks, even the guards at the gate, each had a pair of fine armor.

What's more, when Ju Wu took a casual glance, he found nearly a hundred pairs of waistcoats drying in the barracks in the barracks.

The price of the vest is more expensive than the armor worn by people, which is one of the reasons why the cavalry costs money.

Taiyuan is rich and rich, and the Qin army got it, farmed the fields, raised horses, raised troops and trained soldiers.

The Taiyuan Army accompanied a large number of horses and donkeys as the transport capacity for transshipment materials. Now it seems that it is not just a rumor.

This army is not an exhausted army, but an elite division full of combat effectiveness.

It is not easy to support such an army.More importantly, to develop the capabilities of this army requires a large number of military talents.

But even though he had expected it in his heart, Ju Wu was still shocked by the financial and human resources of the Qin family along the way.

Ju Wu stepped into the tent, the heat from the blazing stove dispelled the cold air outside.Ju Wu took a closer look and saw that the leader was a man in a black suit with a crown.

Unlike all the generals and schools in the tent, he did not wear armor.When he saw Ju Wu coming, the young man had a smile on his face, not indifferent or angry like the others.

"Yan Guo broke his promise, and now he is here to talk about peace, what is his plan!"

Obviously, Qin Jun was very annoyed by the assassination of King Qin, and he didn't like the people of Yan State even more.

"One day when you step through Jicheng, you will die without a place to bury you."

……

Amidst the generals and school's crusade, Ju Wu's face remained unchanged, and he looked at the young man in black.

Until he waved his hand lightly, the crowded tent fell silent.

Sure enough?
The standing army is different and requires financial resources to maintain.

According to the information, these five thousand Taiyuan elite soldiers were all funded and supported by the Qin family.

In fact, the power of the clan in Qin State is very complicated, but over the years, as the leaders of the older generation of the clan have gradually retired, more than half of the clan power is headed by the man in front of him.

The head of the clan, Lord Hanyang Zhao Shuang!

"Wang Jian defeated Wuyang, and Li Xin established Zhuo County. With one hundred thousand Yan troops, in the blink of an eye, those who were destroyed were destroyed, and those who fled. Yan Kingdom wants peace talks at this time, does it have the capital?"

Zhao Shuang sat behind the desk, looked at the old man in front of him, Yandan's teacher, and asked softly.

"Although the Yan Kingdom is a small country, it has a land of thousands of miles. We are the descendants of the Ji family after Zhao Gong, why are we not qualified?"

The aristocratic families of the seven kingdoms in the world are counted in detail after the Zhou Dynasty destroyed the Shang and distributed them.Therefore, Ju Wu expected that Zhao Shuang would not violate the etiquette among nobles.

At least, not in public.

"The State of Qin agreed to the peace talks only after thinking that the Yan family was the Duke of Zhao. But what did you do? At the place of diplomatic relations, assassinate in court. Is this what Duke Zhao taught you?"

"The crime of the ages lies with Yandan alone. Yandan was not angry at the cold treatment he received in Qin, so he assassinated it. This is a personal grievance, not a national enmity. My king is willing to hand over Yandan, and the country of Yan can also hand over all the southwest of Jicheng. land, to appease the wrath of the Son of Heaven."

"Yan Dan, our army can capture it by itself; the land of Dukang, our army can capture it by ourselves. Why use the hands of others?"

Yan Palace.

"Dan'er, you're back."

King Yan looked at his prince and spoke slowly.

In the past few days, battle reports of Wuyang and Zhuo County being captured by the Qin army came from the front one after another.

"Father!"

"Now that the Qin army is in full swing, our army is invincible. If the three armies of Qin join forces and encircle Jidu, our Yan family may be destroyed."

"What does the father mean?"

"Before the Qin army was reconciled, the widow and the ministers moved eastward to Liaodong to preserve the ancestral temple. The widow sent Ju Wu to the peace talks. I didn't expect anything to be negotiated, but I just wanted to delay it for a while!"

"Father, we still have [-] troops, so it's not like this. What's more, the [-] troops on the front line have only been defeated. As long as Jicheng is here and the king's flag is here, the people of Yan Kingdom will not turn their backs on us."

King Yan waved his hand.

"The Great Wall has been broken, and the 4 troops are divided into various places, unable to respond to each other. You only see that our army still has [-], but you don't see the tens of thousands of Qin troops coming from Guanzhong at this time. Once the Qin army's backup arrives, Guang With these [-] people, can it be stopped?"

"Father..."

Yan Dan wanted to persuade him again, but King Yan had already made up his mind.

"The widow and all the ministers will leave Jicheng in a few days. You lead your army and guard behind!"

Yan Dan walked out of the palace and saw Ju Wu who had just returned from a mission.

"Teacher!"

Ju Wu looked at Yan Dan with a complex expression.He took a few steps forward, violated the etiquette of monarchs and ministers, approached Yan Dan, and spoke softly.

"Prince, the old minister is old and can't help you much. If you want to do some things, do it as soon as possible. Don't hesitate."

"Teacher, Your Majesty has called you."

Hearing the servant's urging voice, Ju Wu held Yan Dan's hand with a deep voice and deep meaning.

"Quick!"
