Chapter 75 Big victory in the fourth quarter

Let's say that since Han Fei entered Xianyang, he was called Han Shi, but he was actually a prisoner of Qin.The seasons change, the sun and the moon pass away, and it's the fourteenth year of Yingzheng. This year, Qin and Zhao fought again.Just like last year, Qin was still on the offensive side.The 100,000 Qin army, led by general Huan Yu, set out from Shangdang, crossed the Taihang Mountains, avoided the frontal battlefield where Zhao's defense was heavily guarded, and attacked the two cities of Chili and Yi'an, which were the eastern gateways of Handan. When the news reached Handan, Zhao Wangqian was terrified, and urgently ordered Li Mu to go out to rescue him.

Governor Li Mu commanded 50,000 frontier soldiers, and when he arrived at Feilei City by the Zhangshui River, he ordered the three armies to station and rest.Zhao Wangqian issued several edicts to urge him, and his subordinates also admonished him bitterly, begging Li Mu to move forward to rescue Chili and Yi'an.Li Mu did not move like a mountain, and said, "Master Qin raided for hundreds of miles, and his front was sharp. The two cities of Chili and Yi'an were bound to fall at any time. It is not that they can be saved just by saving them. Master Qin will surely win if he goes down to the two cities. To fetch Handan, to fetch Handan, you must pass through the Feilei, and if you pass through the Feilei, you must first cross the Zhangshui River. For the current plan, we can only hold on to the favorable location and recharge our energy. When the Qin army crosses the Zhangshui River, our army will wait for work at leisure. Hit them, and you will definitely win a big victory. The Qin army fled, and our army covered up and killed them from behind. The two cities can be lost and regained." Everyone admired.

The reason why the two cities of Chili and Yi'an were able to hold on tenaciously was because they had hope in their hearts, thinking that rescue soldiers would come soon.When they heard that Li Mu had stopped in Feilei and did not come to rescue him, he lost all fighting spirit and surrendered one after another.Huanjue conquered the two cities, full of ambition, and saw that Li Mu didn't come to rescue him, but he was tired and tired, shrinking back, and indulged in all day long, thinking that Li Mu was timid, and inevitably underestimated the enemy, so he took advantage of the power of victory, Wield the division into the fat tired, and strive to complete the battle.When they were crossing the Zhangshui, Li Mu's ambush soldiers came out in all directions, thousands of arrows were fired, and the flames shot into the sky. The Qin army was in chaos, trampled and killed countless people.

The Qin army was defeated, and Li Mu pursued all the way, taking advantage of the situation to recover the two cities of Chili and Yi'an, without any problem.Huanjuan returned to Shangdang, counted the soldiers, and killed more than half of them.When Ying Zheng heard that the army had been defeated, he was furious and deposed Huanju as a commoner. Li Mu returned in triumph, Handan poured out of the city, and the suburbs greeted him.After enduring the bullying of Qin State for many years, the morale of Zhao State is low and the fighting spirit is weak.Because of this, Li Mu's victory is extremely precious and timely.Zhao Wangqian held Li Mu's hand in person, and said: "The general is really Zhao Zhibaiqi!" So he followed the example of King Qin Zhao in the past and granted Li Mu the title of Wu'an Lord, with ten thousand households in the city.

Wherever Li Mu's soldiers passed by, there were cheers and cheers, and the excited people knelt on both sides of the road, tears streaming down their faces.Zhao Guo had waited too long for such a victory! In this nationwide carnival, only Li Mu remained calm enough.He knew that although Qin was defeated this time, it was far from being injured. The iron cavalry of the Qin army could make a comeback at any time and invade Zhao's territory again.It is foreseeable that the battle between Qin and Zhao in the future will only become more tragic.Qin State has the capital to continue to lose, but Zhao State cannot afford to lose in a single battle.As long as Zhao Guo loses the first battle, it may mean the country's subjugation!

Although Li Mu was worried, the Feilei victory was a rare victory against Qin after all, and the myth of Qin's invincibility was finally broken.This is not only of great significance to the State of Zhao, but to a certain extent, it also gave the Six Nations a shot in the arm and greatly boosted the morale of the Six Nations. Soon after Feilei's victory, the five countries of Yan, Qi, Wei, Chu, and Han sent envoys to Zhao to celebrate.Li Mu urged Zhao Wangqian to take this opportunity to form an alliance of the six countries to fight against Qin.However, Yao Jia happened to be in Handan, and after hearing the news, he ran back and forth, dividing and transforming the six countries, which quickly aborted the planned alliance.

With the departure of envoys from Yan, Qi, Wei, Chu, and Han, Yao Jia also returned to Xianyang to report on his duties.During Yao Jia's four-year mission, he eliminated the conspiracy of the six countries and stopped the soldiers of the six countries, with remarkable results.Yingzheng was very happy, and Yao Jia was granted the title of Shangqing, and there were thousands of households in the city.Yao Jia, who has been wandering for many years, has finally become a regular worker, has a staff, and has a permanent income. Yao Jia has made outstanding contributions to the Qin State, and although his rewards are generous, they are still convincing.There is only one person who disagrees with this.
