Chapter 1087 Destroy Xianyang City and capture the winning child Chu
Zhao Kuo came very quickly.
The day after the decisive battle in Lantian, Zhao Kuo had already sent Xiang Yan to lead a 20,000 troops as the vanguard of the army, heading towards Xianyang City.
Although Xiang Yan was exhausted and returned to the camp on the day of the final battle, he still got excited and killed him excitedly the next day.
After only half a day, Xiang Yan brought his troops to Zhiyang City, which was under the city that reported the battle situation to Ying Zichu.
At this moment, about 50,000 or 60,000 Qin soldiers had gathered here, but Xiang Yan did not take the enemy troops in the city seriously, and came up to attack the city directly.
With the help of explosives, a loud bang soon and the city gate disappeared directly.
Afterwards, Xiang Yan led the way and rushed into Zhiyang City and killed all directions.
The Qin garrison here was originally defeated by the Zhao army yesterday, and there was a heavy shadow in his heart. Now, under this situation, he was even more frightened. After resisting slightly symbolically for a while, the entire line collapsed again.
So, when Zhao Kuo led the army to arrive, he saw a strange sight, that is, the two thousand Zhao troops left by Xiang Yan were firmly guarding more than 40,000 Qin army prisoners, and these Qin army prisoners seemed particularly honest and dared not move at all.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Kuo also expressed his feelings.
"These Qin troops were really beaten to no apology."
The end of the Battle of Zhiyang actually symbolizes the end of the last trace of resistance of the Qin army.
As for Xianyang?
For Zhao Kuo, that city was completely fish on the chopping board, and he could cut it whatever he wanted.
After thinking about it, Zhao Kuo quickly issued another order.
"Immediately, let someone tell Xiang Yan that before I arrive, I must not launch an attack on Xianyang City!"
Zhao Kuo was really worried that Xiang Yan, a reckless man, would be bad if he directly attacked Xianyang City later and killed Ying Zichu.
It’s not just Ying Zichu, you should know that there are Lu Buwei, Mao Sui and many nightingale “Qin officials” who have been quietly undercover for many years.
So, in Xianyang City, Xiang Yan really can't be allowed to do it.
What Zhao Kuo didn't know was that his order not only stopped Xiang Yan, but also stopped Yiqiusheng.
When Xiang Yan rushed to the city of Xianyang, he unexpectedly discovered that there was a cavalry that had just arrived.
Xiang Yan originally thought that the other party might be reinforcements from Xianyang City, Qin State, but he did not expect that the other party would come to contact him and claim that he was a cavalry of Yiqu State.
"Yiqiu Kingdom?"
Xiang Yan thought for a while and then remembered this vassal country that did not have much presence.
"By the way, hasn't Yiqiu State been incorporated into Zhao State?"
Xiang Yan couldn't help but say.
Yiqiusheng also gave a smile to answer this question: "In the past, it was just an incorporation, but now that my brother-in-law has taken control of the power, then in the future, Yiqiu and Zhao will be truly integrated."
Yiqiusheng himself did not have any disgust with the annexation of Zhao State.
The years of displaced resistance life have long made Yiqusheng realize that a weak country has no way to bring peace and security to its people.
Only by joining a powerful country like Zhao and becoming a part of Zhao can the Yiqu people truly settle down and truly allow future generations to continue to reproduce.
Moreover, because Yiqusheng's sister Yiquwei married Zhao Kuo as her concubine, and the two parties had such a marriage relationship and bond, Yiqu people did not need to worry that Zhao Kuo would turn against each other in the future.
Finally, there is another very critical point, that is, if Zhao really wants to forcibly annex Yiqu Kingdom, the size of Yiqu Kingdom will not be able to support it at all, so it is better to be more sensible.
After briefly answering Xiang Yan, Yi Qusheng immediately said: "Do you still have enough explosives?"
Xiang Yan nodded: "Of course there is this."
Yiqiusheng smiled and said, "What are you waiting for?"
Hurry up and get the explosives up, let’s fight this Xianyang City!”
The explosives obtained by Yiqiusheng have been basically exhausted after use throughout the process.
This is mainly because Yiqiusheng likes to use it too much every time, because it feels so good to watch the entire Qin people's city collapse.
Then, Xiang Yan refused Yi Qusheng without thinking: "No."
Yiqiusheng widened his eyes: "Why not?"
Xiang Yan said: "The Lord said that before he arrived in Xianyang City, no one shall attack Xianyang without authorization, otherwise the military law will be dealt with!"
Yiqusheng: "?
?
?”
Although he was very puzzled by this order, Yiqiusheng could only abide by it after confirming that it was Zhao Kuo's order.
Fortunately, Zhao Kuo did not ask them to wait too long. The next afternoon, Zhao Kuo led the main force of the Zhao army to the outside of Xianyang City in a mighty manner.
When Zhao Kuo saw Yiqiusheng, he was also a little surprised: "You're here so soon?"
Yiqiusheng smiled and said, "The explosives are so easy to use. You can't even get it if you don't want to."
Zhao Kuo was stunned for a while, then suddenly smiled and said, "Actually, you just want to take revenge, right?"
Yiqusheng focused his focus and said with a full evil spirit: "I will definitely not let those guys who have hurt our Yiqu people."
Zhao Kuo thought for a while and said, "You can take revenge, but there is a debt and a master. You can't kill people casually when you see them. Do you understand?"
Although Yiqiusheng was a little reluctant, he nodded.
Zhao Kuo patted Yi Qusheng on the shoulder and said, "When will the revenge be done? After you kill all those enemies, you should let go."
Yiqiusheng nodded silently.
After appeaseing Yiqiusheng, Zhao Kuo raised his head and looked at Xianyang City in front of him.
It has to be said that although this city, which was personally supervised by Shang Yang, is very young compared to the Central Plains cities such as Handan and Linzi, it is absolutely not inferior in momentum. It is very tall and majestic, which makes people feel respectful involuntarily.
Zhao Kuo smiled: "This day finally comes."
Once upon a time, Zhao Kuo also conquered this city, but the time was not yet here, so Zhao Kuo eventually retreated to Zhao State.
But now, the situation is different.
After taking over Xianyang, this place will always become the land of Zhao State and will never be separated again! Zhao Kuo issued a light order: "Send the order, and the whole army will have a good rest today.
Tomorrow, I will break through this Xianyang City for me!"
The next day.
Under Zhao Kuo's orders, countless Zhao troops rushed forward and launched an attack on Xianyang City.
With a creaking sound, the heavy palace gate really opened.
Then a carriage drove out, and the carriage was open and there was a person sitting inside.
Xiang Yan asked, "Who are you?"
The other party smiled and said, "I am the Grand Tutor of Qin State Lu Buwei."
Xiang Yan was surprised: "Is it really the same as what the Lord said?"
Lu Buwei laughed: "General Xiang Yan, you don't need to be so surprised, because your lord is actually mine. Do you understand what I mean?"
Xiang Yan was not a fool, so after a few short seconds, he understood what Lu Buwei meant.
After understanding, Xiang Yan was even more shocked.
Even the Grand Tutor of Qin was the minister of the lord, and suddenly, Xiang Yan thought of another question.
In the State of Chu, are there any other ministers of the lord?
Thinking of this, Xiang Yan suddenly felt a chill.
Our lord is too capable of making arrangements! Lu Buwei didn't know Xiang Yan's psychological activities. He looked at Xiang Yan in a daze and thought that the other party was worried about an ambush after the palace gate, so he smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mao Sui, the commander of the Imperial Guard, is also ours."
Xiang Yan then came to his senses and waved his hand: "Send a small team in to explore the way first, and then ensure safety, the large army will go in!"
A moment later, Xiang Yan and Lu Buwei entered the palace together.
Xiang Yan asked, "Where is the King of Qin who wins Zichu, isn't he dead?"
If Yiqiusheng's revenge target was Gao Li, then Xiang Yan's revenge target was undoubtedly King Ying Zichu of Qin.
Qin once brought so much humiliation and pain to Xiang Yan and Xiang family. Xiang Yan is now really looking forward to seeing Ying Zichu and proclaiming the demise of Qin! Lu Buwei smiled and said, "I am still in the bedroom, so Mao is staring at him."
In the bedroom, Ying Zichu was already in panic.
The loud explosion is impossible to hide, and the sound of shouting and killing in the city is even more impossible to be ignored by ears.
Ying Zichu is not a person with a firm will, so what he thought about at this time was not to fight for the death of the country, but to run for his life.
Looking at Mao Sui in front of him, Ying Zichu couldn't help but urge, "When can we leave?"
Will the people of Zhao have called him?"
Mao Sui was wearing full military uniforms at this moment and said, "Your Majesty is a little restless. You have asked the Grand Master to find a safe route to leave. As long as the Grand Master comes back, we can set off immediately."
In fact, this conversation has been repeated many times, and Ying Zichu is about to lose patience.
Finally, Lu Buwei's figure appeared in Ying Zichu's eyes.
Ying Zichu immediately breathed a long sigh and quickly stepped forward and said, "Tai Shi, I can wait for you..." Ying Zichu's words suddenly stopped because he saw Xiang Yan beside Lu Buwei at this time.
Ying Zichu didn't know Xiang Yan, but he could easily recognize Xiang Yan and the equipment and armor of the Zhao army soldiers behind Xiang Yan.
Ying Zichu took two steps back and his voice trembled: "Taoshi, what's going on?"
Xiang Yan laughed, strode forward, and looked at Ying Zichu with the eyes of the winner: "King Qin, don't you understand yet?
