Qin Shi: Beginning as the first emperor's younger brother

As Ying Yuan expected, Wei Zhuang has been storming Pingyang Pass.

When he arrived, the pass had already been lost.

In any case, this has been regarded as a failure.

When the news reached Xianyang, Yingzheng did not have much emotional fluctuations. Although a small pass in Pingyang, although its geographical location is particularly important, it is insignificant under the crush of hundreds of thousands of troops.

The same is true.

When Wei Zhuang learned that it was Ying Yuan who led an army of 20 to Pingyang Pass, he took an active defensive posture and set up camp on a hill outside Pingyang Pass.

The Qin army set up camp in the middle of Pingyang Pass and Beiqu.

in the main account.

Ying Yuan frowned slightly, and was analyzing the current situation to the generals: "I think you all already know that South Korea is serious this time.

The Yewang, Shanyang and other cities that we captured before have all been swept away by the enemy with a thunderous force. This is something that the Marquis did not expect.

The 10,000+ army led by Wei Zhuang first captured Luize, Pilao, Jingcheng and other places, which can be described as menacing. Right now, we must recover Pingyang Pass in the shortest possible time, and then go straight to Qinshui to attack Wild King City, meet with my benefactor in Chenggao. "

This is the larger strategic intent.

Cheng Gao is still in the hands of Qin State, and Wang Jian also plans to send reinforcements to defend the city.

As long as this city is not lost, Qin's army will be like a sharp arrow, ready to pierce the enemy's heart at any time.

Generally speaking, the Qin army has the upper hand.

The combined army of Wei Zhuang and Xue Yihou was only more than 20, and with the reinforcements from the two countries, less than 50 were killed.

There are also many old, weak, sick and disabled troops as well as miscellaneous troops.

However, the Qin army was different. In addition to the 15 defenders of Hangu Pass and the [-] soldiers led by Wang Jian, the total force of Qin against South Korea was basically equal to that of the enemy.

Moreover, the Qin army was united as one. For this battle, they had been training for a long time, and they were already hungry and thirsty.

Whether it is the direction of the soldiers or the morale of the army, the Qin army at this moment can be called the peak.

On the other hand, in South Korea, the situation is not so friendly.

Let’s not talk about whether Wei and Yan’s reinforcements can help South Korea with all their heart. Let’s talk about the overall military quality and personal physical strength of the soldiers of the Korean army.

Therefore, in this war, Qin is completely suppressing South Korea. As long as there is no problem in strategic command, generally speaking, South Korea will undoubtedly lose.

"Wei Zhuang's posture is obviously to start a decisive battle with our army at Pingyang Pass!"

Li Tong looked at the Weizhuang camp site marked on the sand table, and fell into deep thought. After a while, such a sentence popped out of his mouth.

His consideration was not unreasonable, but Ying Yuan thought that it was impossible for Wei Zhuang to set the decisive battle here.

"This Marquis doesn't think so. You think, based on the current strength comparison, can the mere Han army be the opponent of our army?"

All the soldiers remained silent for a moment.

Because they feel that there is no need to answer this question, the answer is naturally self-evident.

Ying Yuan continued: "Since the enemy's overall strength is inferior to ours, is Wei Zhuang stupid enough to wait to die in this place?

Ben Hou was thinking, what he should do now is to resist our army steadily, with the intention of preventing our army from advancing eastward.

Until the end, fight on the mainland, relying on favorable terrain, and try to drag down our army.

After all, every time our army takes a step forward, the supply line will be longer, but every time Wei Zhuang takes a step back, he will be closer to the supply line. The ebb and flow will easily put our army in trouble. "

"What Hou Ye said is reasonable, but right now the enemy is defending the city, and Wei Zhuang personally leads a team of troops to set up camp outside the city, and they will be horns with them. If our army attacks the city, we are afraid of being attacked by surprise."

Meng Tian found out the crux of the current problem.

Ying Yuan smiled and nodded and said: "You are right, since the enemy army has already taken precautions, then we are not in a hurry, and simply cut off their supplies, cut off the food road, and surround them without fighting.

As long as the enemy army can't hold on, they will naturally counterattack our army, but at that time our army has already been disintegrated, and the enemy army will suffer heavy losses by encircling the point by then. "

Meng Tian immediately understood Ying Yuan's purpose, he said with a smile: "The New Year's Eve is over, and the road is blocked by heavy snow, does Hou Ye want to wait until the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming before launching a general attack on the enemy?"

The latter came to the former, patted him on the shoulder, and said: "This Marquis insists on taking you on the expedition, it seems that you are right.

You are right. Of the 20 of us, 7 to [-] are cavalry, and it is not easy to fight against the enemy at this time of year.

What's more, the war against South Korea cannot be resolved in a short while, and the Marquis has already made preparations for a long-term battle. "

"Didn't Lord Hou promise in front of the king that he would destroy Han within a year?"

Puzzled at the end of the season.

Ying Yuan said bluntly: "Don't say that, some forces in the country who don't want to start a war will definitely take the opportunity to make some messy things when the Marquis leaves Xianyang.

Ben Hou doesn't want to see such a thing happen, what's more, within a year, Ben Hou does have this idea, but as for the final result, we can only do our best to obey the destiny. "

Next, he began to issue orders.

Li Tong led [-] soldiers to block the grain road and keep an eye on Weizhuang.

Meng Tian led [-] soldiers and surrounded Pingyang Pass on all sides.

At the end of the season, he is responsible for doing his best to find out the enemy's intelligence.

As long as there is any movement in Wei Zhuang, Li Tong will definitely make a move upon hearing the news, and then cooperate with Meng Tian's internal and external attack.

Although this approach cannot end the war in a very short period of time, it can give the Qin army time to recuperate and give them ample opportunity to buffer the countless battles they will face next.

Compared to Ying Yuan's side defending the city, Wang Jian's actions were much bigger.

Qin Wangzheng is in the early spring of March.

Everything recovers, and the ice and snow melt.

Wang Jian personally led the main army to attack the Xueyihou's tribe, causing them to be defeated.

Zhang Han led [-] armored soldiers and took Yiyang directly.

Wang Ben led a group to attack Nanliang City.

And Wang Jian was responsible for restraining the movement of the enemy's main force, so that they could not return to the second city.

At this point, the outer battle of Hangu Pass was basically over, and the rest was to fight in the hinterland of South Korea.

When Ying Yuan heard the news, he was hunting on horseback in the vast grassland.
