Chapter 846 (1/2)
The development of the war was just as Cheng Hu expected. After taking the city of Lu easily, the vanguard army successively won two cities of Yan state. Although it was not as bloodless as winning Lucheng, it did not cause much damage to the vanguard army. Later, the sudden disaster of the Qin army also surprised the high-level of Yan state. On the one hand, Yu ruocai, the head of the state of Yan, mobilized domestic troops to resist the invasion of the Qin army after the Qin Dynasty. On the other hand, he was actively contacting Yan's allies, hoping that they could help them.
However, Yu ruochai's reply was so cool that his heart was cold. Although the state of Yan relied heavily on Shu state, it was still led by three brothers, Yingbei, a general of Shu state. However, it is a long way from Shu to Yan. It is impossible to catch up without half a month. Moreover, the messenger of Shu also said hello to Yu ruochai. Even if the army of Shu arrived in time, I'm afraid it would be impossible to pass the Danube pass for a while. Therefore, there is no need to count on Shu for the time being.
As for the state of Dachang, after being asked for help by the state of Yan, Miao Fu, a general of Dachang state, personally led the army of Dachang state to the post Qin State and wanted to surround the Wei Dynasty to save Zhao. Miao Fu had a good idea, but he never thought that the army of Dachang state had not stepped out of the border of Dachang state, but was attacked by the army won by the fourth Prince of the state of Qin. Miao Fu never expected that he would suddenly send out troops and be caught unprepared. The Dachang army was defeated directly, and Miao Fu was seriously injured.
In the end, Yu ruochai's hope could only be placed on the state of Zhou, but in the end, he received a reply from the state of Zhou, saying that there were many mysterious enemies in the state. In order to protect the local security of Dazhou state, Li Ke, a general, had to lead his troops back to China, and could not help Yan.
After getting these news, Yu ruocai was hopeless. Finally, he could only rely on the army of Yan state to resist the invasion of Qin army. If you want to do business, Yu ruochai can be regarded as a talent. However, if you want to start marching and fighting, Yu ruochai is not as good as his general. Under the deterrence of the post Qin army, Yu ruochai made a very stupid decision, that is, he gave up the territory of Yan state except Tianyang City, and mobilized the remaining 15000 troops of Yan state to Tianyang city.
In this way, most of Yan's territory was easily seized by the post Qin army. However, the 15000 strong army that Yu ruochai mobilized from all over the Yan state was surrounded by more than 5000 vanguard troops led by Cheng Hu, who did not dare to leave Tianyang city. Cheng Hu is not a rude man either. Naturally, he would not attack the garrison far beyond his own side with 5000 men. So he surrounded Tianyang city and waited for the army led by Li Yuanhe to come.
Although this plan was put forward by Li Yuanhe himself, Li Yuanhe did not expect that the plan went so smoothly. At the moment, he mentioned that the army rushed to Tianyang City, and at the same time sent many teams to take over the cities of Yan state which Yu ruochai had abandoned.
At the same time, in order to wipe out the mysterious army, Li Ke stationed in Helu city with 10000 men and horses, waiting for the emergence of the mysterious army. Li Ke did not expect that the mysterious army he was waiting for was stationed in a valley about 100 li away from Helu city.
In the valley, under the cover of dense woods at the mouth of the valley, the army set up a camp in the valley. In the commander's tent, two soldiers in black armor were pointing to a map and discussing something. If Li Ke was in the army tent at the moment, one of the two generals could be recognized at a glance. It was his old acquaintance, Cheng Jue, one of the four tiger generals under Luo Tianhan! The other general standing beside Cheng Jue is Yang Bai, one of the four tiger generals under Luo Tianhan!
”Now that Li Ke is stationed in Helu City, we'd better not act rashly.” Yang Bai is still that indifferent expression, pointing to the location of Helu city on the map, ”this Helu city is located in the center of the state of Dazhou, which can be said to be a town guarding the whole state of Zhou. No matter where we act in the state of Dazhou, Li Ke can arrive in the shortest time!”
At this time, Cheng Jue is no longer the indifferent appearance in front of Li Yuanhe. He laughs and says in a loud voice: ”it doesn't matter! No problem! Anyway, our goal is to contain Li Ke and his army here! As long as Li Ke and his army don't move, we won't move. When Li Yuan and his army have solved Yan state, they will come to clean up Li Ke with us! ”
Yang Bai is not as optimistic as Cheng Jue. He frowns tightly and shakes his head and says, ”I'm afraid it's not so simple! You can see the problem, Li Ke can not see it! He is definitely not the kind of person who is willing to wait for death! So Li Ke did not know that if Yan was destroyed, the next bad luck would be the state of Zhou! I guess that if Li Ke was really forced to rush, he might be desperate to attack the state of Qin after Qin, or go south to help Yan! ”
