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

Chapter 699 Six Sword Slaves

The stars shone, illuminating the peaceful woodlands beside the river.

Zhao Shuang walked out of the tent. Behind him, Xiao Meng was sleeping peacefully on the couch without making a sound.

The moonlight was very bright, and it was not dark in front of his eyes. Zhao Shuang could even see hares scurrying in the grass a few feet away.

Holding the wine, Zhao Shuang walked forward a dozen steps, near the edge of the forest, a figure was leaning against a big tree, waiting.

"Ah Zhuang, are you here?"

"I've already taken care of Meng Yi's matter. His army is now in Wancheng, and Meng's iron cavalry has gradually gathered under his command."

Zhao Shuang threw a jug of wine in his hand to Wei Zhuang, and the other party took a sniff next.

"Yandi Fine Brew?"

There was a smile on Wei Zhuang's face. You must know that Kanto is in chaos now, and the commercial roads from Yandi to Guanzhong have been greatly affected.But the jar of wine that Zhao Shuang gave him seemed to be a new product just out of the cellar.

"I know you like it, Zhuang, so I brought it specially?"

Zhao Shuang opened his altar and drank.

"Li Xin just won a big victory in Sanchuan, Zhang Chu's army was defeated, but Wu Kuang is still on the outskirts of Xingyang. What are you going to do next?"

"Zhang Chu's army is nothing to worry about. His soldiers scattered before reaching Hangu, causing heavy casualties. After such a defeat, there will inevitably be dissatisfaction among them. Only the remaining families of the six countries need to be concerned, especially the Tian family of Qi State and Chu State. Xiang Shi."

Wei Zhuang took a sip, the wine brewed in Yandi, as soon as it entered his throat, it felt like a knife was scraped.

"It seems that you don't plan to take advantage of the victory to recover the lost ground in Kanto?"

"The current situation is different from that of the Six Nations. Blind counterattacks will only stretch the front line too long, and finally get into trouble."

With the current strength of the empire, it is not difficult to mobilize 50 million troops.But the six countries in Shandong are no longer the six countries that fought each other.

The power of the Six Nations is now weaker than that of the past, but they have gathered together under the threat of Qin.

This is a huge threat to the empire.

Guanzhong is a place of victory. The so-called Baierqin Pass and Hangu One Lock only need a small amount of troops to restrict the westward advance of the Guandong princes.

This is also one of the reasons why the Six Kingdoms joined forces many times and could not conquer Qin.

But if the empire goes east, it will soon enter the plains.In such a vast territory, although there are 50 million soldiers and horses, they cannot fill every city and every place.

Even if the forces of the Six Nations are wiped out, they will soon be revived.At that time, the army of the empire will easily fall into the situation of being attacked from both sides.

"You agree with me."

Wei Zhuang said.

Now that the imperial army is on the defensive, the princes of the six countries and Zhang Chu's army will not be united yet.But once the imperial army goes east, they will definitely gather in one place to resist together.

Even if the imperial army is in an advantage, it can easily get bogged down and eventually become a tug of war.

However, if Zhao Shuang only took a defensive position and sent troops to strictly guard the passes, the Guandong princes would fall into the predicament they had when they joined forces.

Although Wei Zhuang and Zhao Shuang have similar opinions, he can also see that the situation of the empire at this time is different from that of the past.

Of the 50 million troops that the empire can use, 20 are in Jiuyuan, [-] are in the west, [-] are in Hangu, [-] are in Taiyuan, [-] are in Nanyang, and [-] are in Yingluo.

The army of the empire in the Kanto region was shattered under the invasion of various princes.

A small number of areas, such as the Southern Chu area, repelled the rebels with the help of the Mohists, but they were only enough for defense and could not support them.

The combat power of the Guanzhong army is also discounted. As for the Zhao Tuo army in South Vietnam, its composition is already complicated, and it is difficult to go north to help.

At this moment, the princes of the Guandong are dominated by Zhang Chujun, and their main attack force is on the front line of Xingyang and Hangu. On this battlefield, Zhao Shuang can only use 11 troops.

Li Xin's [-] flying army, plus Li You's [-] Sichuan Army and Yang Xiong's [-] heavy armor.

It is foreseeable that this area will become a fierce battlefield.

It is not easy to keep.

Now the armies of the various princes in the Kanto region may add up to one million, among which Zhang Chu's army is the strongest.

Although Zhang Chu's army who invaded Sanchuan was defeated, Wu Kuang is now outside Xingyang City and still has good strength.

For Zhao Shuang, it is still a big problem.

But Wei Zhuang looked at Zhao Shuang, who didn't seem worried.

"Have you thought about how to deal with Wu Kuang?"

"I have buried the most important chess piece, and her ambition will help me solve the current difficulties."

The corners of Wei Zhuang's mouth curled up slightly, and the wine in his throat became very sweet at this moment.

"You should have buried a lot of chess pieces in Kanto, but this one seems to be inferior to all other chess pieces combined. But I want to remind you that the more useful the chess pieces, the more likely they are to be lethal. threat."

After hearing Wei Zhuang's reminder, Zhao Shuang smiled instead.

"The more dangerous and deadly something is, the better it is, isn't it?"

Wei Zhuang's eyes showed admiration, and he raised the wine jar in his hand.In their bones, they are the same kind of people who came from Guigu sect.

Lawless people!

"Well said!"

……

"Xiakui, why are you here?"

In Zhang Chu's army camp under Xingyang City, Tian Hu looked at Tian Yan who had arrived at Kui Ye, and was a little puzzled.

"Second Uncle, the army that invaded Sanchuan has already been defeated."

"I know."

Tian Hu responded casually, but seeing Tian Yan's serious look, he felt something was wrong.

"Xiakui, what's wrong?"

"The current situation has changed drastically. After Chen Sheng invaded the Chen land, he sent troops to conquer the land. However, after the generals of the rebel armies captured the old land of the Six Kingdoms, they became kings on their own and no longer listened to Uncle Chen Sheng's orders. The current situation in Xingyang is very dangerous."

"We still have more than [-] troops here, so it's not enough!"

"The danger is not now, but in the future. The reason why the [-] troops who invaded Sanchuan were defeated by Li Xin's [-] troops is not only the difference in combat power between the two sides, but more importantly, the military minister's army did not follow Chen Sheng's dispatch and reinforce them in time."

"That bastard!"

Tian Hu cursed loudly, very dissatisfied.But what is more in this dissatisfaction, only he knows.

"Not only did the military minister not reinforce, but he sent his general Han Guang to attack the land of Yan. At this time, the Qin army did not have much strength in the land of Yan. After Han Guang captured Jicheng easily, he did not return to Handan, but instead established himself as the king of Yan. This is I'm talking about danger."

"Ayan, what do you mean?"

"Second uncle, after all, we are not on the same side as Chen Sheng, and we still have old grudges. Now not only Chen Sheng, but also the generals of his subordinates have begun to become kings. There are not many territories in this world. Second uncle leads the army What's the use of spending it here?"

"so what should I do now?"

"Take Wu Kuang's military power and occupy the land as king. The worst thing is, you must have the power to protect yourself."

"But Wu Kuang is Chen Sheng's brother after all, will this anger him?"

"How did Chen Sheng deal with his past after he became king? Did the second uncle forget? Chen Sheng didn't get rid of the second uncle because the second uncle still had the peasant brothers from Chiyoutang and Gonggongtang loyal to him. Once the Qin army went east and Xingyang was defeated, you If I return to Chendu, I am afraid that I will die."

Tian Yan's words made Tian Hu make up his mind.

"I understand, let's prepare now."

"Second Uncle, I have brought you a helper."

After Tian Yan finished speaking, under Tian Hu's surprised eyes, Six Swordsmen walked in from outside the tent.
