General Qin

"Don't worry, I will personally report to Zuo Shuchang. I believe Zuo Shuchang will pay attention to such a big event and personally lead the army to respond."

Outside Huangcheng, Yang Xiong patted Zhao Tuo on the shoulder, telling him to leave in peace.

Zhao Tuo nodded and said, "With Brother Yang around, I'm naturally at ease."

As he said that, Zhao Tuo looked at Zhao Ben who was standing beside Yang Xiong, seeing the other party nodding his head, Zhao Tuo felt relieved.

With Zhao Ben guarding Waihuang, he thought that there would be no troubles here, so that Zhao Tuo could feel at ease to follow and chase the Wei army.

This was a decision made by the three of Zhao Tuo after hearing about the Battle of Jiyang.

The Wei army abandoned the rescue of Tao Qiu and turned westward. There must be a big plan for this trip.

Although Zhao Tuo couldn't know exactly what the Wei army was planning, he vaguely felt that the other party might have come up with a strategy of "surrounding Qin and saving Wei" by raiding the hinterland of Qin to break the siege of Daliang.

There are still tens of thousands of soldiers of the Wei army in Daliang City, who are capable of fighting.

As long as Wang Ben's siege army was forced to mobilize and a flaw appeared, the Wei army in those cities might seize the opportunity to go out of the city to make a surprise attack in search of life.

If the Wei army's plan is successful, it may be difficult for Qin to win the battle to destroy Wei.

And this is precisely the last contribution that Zhao Tuo and Yang Xiong need. As long as they can stop all this, they can make meritorious service and pay homage to the prince smoothly.

"This matter is very risky. If Wei Bao is really a fool, he didn't want to attack Qin land westward. He actually led the army southward to attack Waihuang. I happened to run into his southward army when I went there. With less against more, I am afraid that there will be danger of overthrowing the army."

"However, since Wei Bao was able to raid the Qin army in Jiyang, he must at least have some military acumen. In addition to the previous act of abandoning the city, the possibility of him going south is very small. Even if he does meet, as long as the scouts I send in front The response is timely, and the army can be retreated, and the loss will not be great."

This time Zhao Tuo personally led more than a thousand Qin soldiers to pursue northward.

Some of them were defeated soldiers from the Qin army in Hanoi.

Jiyang was defeated, not only did they have no merit, some generals were even convicted for it. Therefore, these Hanoi troops are quite determined to make meritorious service for atonement. After all, their defeat was all due to the surprise attack from the rear by the Wei army, not a frontal defeat. Their morale did not fall to the bottom, and they still had the will to fight.

As a result, there are still 600 to 700 people guarding Waihuang City.

Originally Yang Xiong wanted to personally lead the army to follow, but this matter was of great importance, Zhao Tuo did not dare to let Yang Xiong go into battle, so he persuaded him to stay in the name of needing him to contact Huan Zhao to report.

As for Zhao Ben staying, it is because Waihuang City is very unstable now.

After hundreds of Hanoi defeated troops entered Waihuang, all the Wei people in the city knew that the Qin army was defeated by the prince of Wei Guo under the city of Jiyang. Many Wei people had thoughts in their hearts that there was a possibility of rebellion at any time.

Zhao Tuo could only let the prudent Zhao Ben stay. Only with this person leading 700 soldiers to sit and guard the city can he ensure that he has no worries in the future, and he can attack and retreat.

Another point, Zhao Tuo was worried that Huan Zhao would use this matter to punish him, but after thinking about it carefully, if he succeeded in this battle, Huan Zhao, as the commander in chief, could also get a great contribution to the promotion.

Under such circumstances, as long as Huan Zhao is not a fool, not only will he not stop it, but he will personally guarantee the victory of the attack.

This is a common interest.

So Zhao Tuoan led his army northward.

He had only a thousand soldiers under his command, but Zhao Tuo still cautiously assigned a hundred elites led by Shejian to scout the way ahead as a Xing army in case they were ambushed by the Wei army.

Another confidant, Hei Zuo, led two hundred people to the rear and was responsible for the safety of the rear.

Zhao Tuo himself led 700 people in the center, so that the arrangement could be coordinated head to tail, and would not be wiped out by an entire army that lay in ambush.

Waihuang is not far from Hucan Township in Yangwu County in the north. At night and dusk, the vanguard led by Shejian arrived outside Hucan Township and encountered the Wei soldiers stationed here.

With the sound of ding ding dong dong, there was a sound of fighting, and within half an hour, all the Wei soldiers who were attacked were wiped out by the Qin army. Except for a few people who were kept as prisoners for interrogation, most of the Wei soldiers had their heads cut off.

"Very good, defeat the Wei army in the village in one battle."

Zhao Tuo's expression didn't change when he heard the military situation coming from Shejian in front of him. He looked at the village in the night ahead, his eyes were shining brightly.

"As expected, the number of Wei troops in the village is less than a hundred, and the main force has already left. The news that Wei Bao went south to attack Waihuang is false. He actually wants to use this false news to keep us in place and lead his army westward."

When Zhao Tuo learned about the movement of the main force of the Wei army from the captured Wei Zuo through torture, he further verified his guess.

"Attack Yangwu County to the west, regain the land of Wei, and kill the Yangwu Order who betrayed the Wei State? Hehe, Wei Bao likes to use these pretense, and even deceives his own soldiers."

"Gu, quickly send someone to send a message to Lord Yang Erwubai to inform the situation here. He said that it has been confirmed that the main force of the Wei army is indeed heading west. Our previous guess is correct. This Wei army is probably going to attack the heart of our Qin State. to break the siege of Daliang!"

Zhao Tuo tilted his head and gave instructions to Xi Qigu who was beside him.

"only."

Xiqigu agreed, and immediately went down to send a messenger to fly in the direction of Waihuang to convey the military situation here.

"All the ministries entered the village in an orderly manner. All the soldiers had a good rest and prepared to pursue the road tomorrow. In addition, the soldiers in the rear led by Heibutt were responsible for night vigilance, guarding the town gates, and preventing enemy surprise attacks."

After Zhao Tuo ordered the army to be arranged for tonight, and temporarily handed over the command to Shejian, he strode into the village.

He still has people to see.

Huzhou Township, Zhang's mansion.

Zhang negative and his son, who were terrified in front of Wei Bao a few days ago, are now standing in front of this young Qin general, and they are also worried. They don't know what will happen to the Zhang family when the Qin army comes again.

Zhang negative boldly said: "Dare to tell the general, we have already captured those escaped Wei soldiers, today's incident will never be leaked to Wei Bao's army."

Zhao Tuo nodded, looking at Zhang Neg and his son in surprise.

This old man has some skills. After hearing that the Qin army had invaded the village, he stood up and called on the villagers at the right time, blocked the road leading to the west, and even made some young and strong generals in the village want to escape and send a message Wei Zu caught him.

As a result, the Qin army succeeded in raiding Humen Township, and none of the Wei soldiers escaped.

Even Zhao Tuo's next battle plan will change accordingly.

In his original plan, no matter how fast and fierce the Qin army attacked, it would be difficult to wipe out the Wei army in the township.

This matter is unavoidable. In this way, Zhao Tuo's pursuit is no longer a matter of secrecy.

But it doesn't matter, because in the discussion between him and Zhao Ben and others, the strategic goal of this trip is to hold back the Wei army and hang behind Wei Bao.

If the enemy advances, we retreat, and if the enemy retreats, we advance. If the Wei army dared to attack the city of Qin, they would attack from behind.

Everything is to delay the time for the Wei army to advance westward, waiting for the messenger to pass on the military situation here to Huanzhao, Wang Ben, and even Xingyang to the west.

In this way, Qin's heartland cities can be defended in advance, Huan Zhao can lead his army north to support, Wang Ben can also be prepared, and calmly dispatch troops to wipe out this westward Wei army.

Wei Jun's surprise soldiers, whose traces and strategic targets have been exposed, will no longer pose a threat.

And what Zhao Tuo and Yang Xiong want to get is this credit.

But now, with Zhang negative mobilizing the villagers to capture all the Wei soldiers in the city, the situation is quite different.

"Wei Bao didn't know that my army had taken his back route, so..."

A gleam flashed in Zhao Tuo's eyes, and he smelled a fighter.

Dong Junyang is sick and has a fever.

This chapter is a draft, and there will be another chapter today. It will be a little later, and half of it has been written. When the fever subsides, it will be completed and sent out.

Everyone pay attention to protection and health, the sun is really uncomfortable
