"In the first stage, stick to it first. Nanyang has been run by Chu State for many years and has built a Great Wall.

"From Luguan to the east via Jixian County and Huangshui to Biyang. It is rectangular in shape, and it is built using embankments connecting Bishui and Huangshui on mountain highlands."

"From Luguan to the west, Lianyi Wangshan in the northwest, and then to Rang County in the south, the scale is huge."

"We can make full use of the fortification of the Great Wall to lure the Qin people to attack, killing their morale and food.

"When the Qin people are short of food and grass, and their morale is exhausted, they will turn to the second stage and counterattack.

"With the advantage of our army's cavalry, if we go out of Luguan to disturb its grain road, the Qin people will be defeated without a fight."

After Lian Po finished speaking in one breath, Cao Chao did not immediately make a comment, but looked at Li Mu.

"I wonder what General Li thinks?"

After pondering for a while, Li Mu said,

"The final general thinks what General Lian said is quite reasonable.

"It's just that Han and Wei are plains, so it's a pity not to use them."

"Oh?"

Cao Chao's eyes flashed, and he asked lightly,

"What about General Li's opinion?"

Li Mu cupped his hands and said,

"The last general thought that he could disperse the cavalry ahead of time and continue to harass both Han and Wei, making Wang Jian's army overwhelmed.

"In this way, Qin's army will not only face the threat of food shortages at all times, but also have to divide its troops to help Han and Wei.

"This will speed up the collapse of the enemy force."

As soon as the words fell, before Cao Chao could speak, Lian Po frowned and said,

"But our cavalry will also not receive supplies, and they are in danger of overturning at any time."

Faced with Lian Po's doubts, Li Mu nodded slowly.

"It is true, but with the elite of the Xuanjia Army, as long as it is accompanied by a general who is familiar with the terrain of Han and Wei, the general should be fine."

After Lian Po listened, he lowered his head and thought for a moment, then nodded slightly, which was regarded as his approval of the other party's statement.

After all, he had seen the Xuanjia Army with his own eyes, so he would not have the slightest doubt about its elite level.

With such elites, it is not difficult to plunder supplies on the spot.

Cao Chao nodded silently upon hearing this.

Sure enough, they are indeed two peerless generals, and they coincide with their own ideas.

In fact, he had this plan before sending out troops, so he brought thirty thousand Xuanjia troops.

So he nodded slightly, and finally made a decision.

"Okay, since that's the case, Li Mu and Lian Po obey orders!"

Lian Po and Li Mu were shocked when they heard the words, as if they realized something, they quickly cupped their hands and said,

"The end is here!"

"This king ordered you two to lead [-] Xuanjia troops out of Lu Pass to sweep Han and Wei.

"As for how to proceed, this king will not participate, the two of you will discuss it.

"This king has only one request, and that is to try to make the Han and Wei lands chaotic, so as to cut off the Qin people's food and grass supplies in the east."

"any questions?"

As soon as these words came out, Lian Po and Li Mu looked at each other in blank dismay.

They never expected that the king would let the two of them lead the army alone.

You must know that they were the generals of Zhao State before, and Lian Po even served Wei and Chu.

According to the usual practice, surrendered generals will generally not be allowed to lead the army independently, for fear of accidents.

However, Cao Chao not only let them lead the army alone, but also handed over the most elite cavalry to them in such an important national war.

This level of trust is simply unprecedented.

Thinking of this, the two of them were suddenly moved.

You must know that the two of them ended up drifting half their lives in Zhao State precisely because they were suspected by the monarch.

In contrast, Hanwang treated them with kindness and reinvention.

As the saying goes, a scholar dies for his confidant, and they gained Cao Chao's trust when the two were at their worst, and the two suddenly felt an urge to die for it.

"The final general will definitely wipe out Han and Wei for the king, in order to repay the favor of the king for knowing him!"

The two bowed down in unison and shouted excitedly.

"good!"

Looking at the drooping heads of the two, a smile appeared on the corner of Cao Chao's mouth.

……

At the same time, Xinzheng City, inside the Chengshou Mansion.

General Wang Yan was reading the battle report on the table with his head down.

Leaning slightly, a figure stepped out of the shadow.

"Meet the general."

Without raising his head, Wang Yan asked directly,

"Does your majesty have any orders?"

"Your Majesty let me tell the General that Wang Jian's army left Xianyang three days ago and will arrive in a few days.

"In order to prevent Wang Jian from becoming alarmed, if the general wants to contact me in the future, he can use the method of passing the letter by the swan goose."

After finishing speaking, he put down the cloth bag behind him and released the big bird inside.

The big bird is quite spiritual, and it doesn't call, but just walks around the ground.

Wang Lu nodded slightly.

"Your Majesty has a heart, go back and tell your Majesty, the final battle will definitely make the Qin army mess up!"

"promise!"

Chapter 814 Qi Guotian Yi's helplessness

Qi State, Shouchun City.

The cold wind is blowing, flags are fluttering, and countless soldiers are ready to go.

It was the elite division of Qi State who went to the expedition.

One of them stands out in particular.

Each of them is eight feet tall, wearing heavy armor, holding a big halberd, and a big horse on their hips.

Although the number is only over ten thousand, it is extremely eye-catching in the 20 army.

They are Qi's most elite troops, martial arts knights.

According to legend, the army was built by Duke Zhuang of Qi in the late Spring and Autumn Period.

At that time, Duke Zhuang of Qi recruited warriors and formed a strong army by using the folk customs of Qi who were martial arts and keen on private fighting.

Later, after King Qi Min destroyed the Song Dynasty, the conflict with the martial arts knight commander Tian Wen intensified and caused civil strife, which then attracted the five kingdoms of Yan, Zhao, Han, Wei and Qin to attack Qi.

At that time, the martial arts knights were destroyed by the Allied Forces of the Five Nations, and they never recovered.

It wasn't until King Jian of Qi came to power, in order to revive the glory of the great Qi, that Wang Di Tian Yi was asked to reorganize this army.

The military pay of martial arts knights is three times that of other troops, and the soldiers are selected from the elite soldiers of the five families to join, and all the mid-level officers are served by outstanding disciples of Jixia Academy.

On weekdays, he was trained strictly by Tian Yi, equipped with heavy armor and good-bred horses purchased from the north, and his combat effectiveness was definitely not inferior to that of Qin's Tie Ying warriors.

Under the scorching sun, the armor is bright, the horses are neighing, and the air of killing is all over the sky.

All eyes were on the high platform in front of the troops.

At this moment, a middle-aged scribe was standing on the high platform.

He has a handsome appearance, with a feather fan and a scarf, and he is looking at the south with complicated eyes.

There is the most solid ally of Daqi, Han.

Without the advice and advice of the Han State, it would be impossible for Da Qi to occupy a large area of ​​Yan State and avenge the shame of the former Five Kingdoms' annihilation of Qi.

Without the advice of Han, Da Qi could not have destroyed Lu in one fell swoop.

Without Han's Refined Salt Law, it would have been even more impossible for Daqi to make huge profits and directly raise the national power to a higher level.

It can be said that Daqi is as strong as it is today, and half of the credit should be attributed to that man who is far away in Chengdu.

The former Prime Minister of Qi State, today's King of Han, Cao Chao.

However, time has passed, and the former allies have become stronger and stronger, so powerful that they are feared by the princes of the whole world.

For his own safety, Da Qi had to abandon his allies.

Thinking of this, Tian Yi sighed quietly.

Recalling that in Linzi in the past, I had a banquet with Cao Chao, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of vicissitudes.

In the end, all thoughts turned into a sigh.

"Hey!"

Tian Yi shook his head slightly, and put his complicated thoughts behind him.

Wuqing is the emperor's family the most. As Daqi's younger brother, he must put his family and country first.

For the sake of the national interest, let alone friendship, even family affection can be discarded.

I, Tian Yi, was born as a native of Qi, and died as the soul of Qi.
