The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

As the marshal of soldiers and horses resisting Xia's invasion this time, Meng Tian is based in Fenglin County to command all soldiers and horses.

Xia Guo’s soldiers were divided into eight groups, and he had to divide them into three lines of defense to resist, especially Xia Jun’s central army, which was the route of Xia Emperor Xiao Rui’s personal conquest, which attracted his attention the most.

But when news of Zhang Chao's defeat to defend the balcony county town came back, Meng Tian's hopeful mood was disappointed.

He walked to the table, looked at the map on the table, and thought about how to resist.

At this moment, Bai Meng opened the tent curtain and walked in. The cold sound of howling blew into the camp, causing the coal in the charcoal basin to make a thundering sound. The cold wind poured into Meng Tian's neck, causing him to shiver. .

"It's so cold!"

Meng Tian recovered, and focused his attention outside.

Bai Meng nodded and said, "The temperature started to drop last night, and the ice in the river is thick."

Now that the winter solstice has passed, the cold winter has gone through. In the past, the winter temperature in Qin was not cold. At most a thin layer of ice would form on the surface of the river, but now it is too cold. After a winter, the ice layer in the river is thick. .

And it is getting colder year by year.

Meng Tian's heart sank and sighed: "The weather is getting colder and colder, and the crops will be endless. And in such a cold day, how can the soldiers reach out? Old Bai, have you patrolled the barracks? How are the soldiers?"

Bai Meng sighed, and said: "The winter clothes prepared by the court are just like that. You don't know that it is mainly made of hemp, with cotton wool added in it, and replaced with the previous temperature. It will pass after a while, but now it is trembling. For a long time, soldiers will develop frostbite and their physical fitness will decline, not to mention fighting. I have ordered to boil broth and warm the soldiers, but this is not a long-term solution."

Meng Tian nodded and sighed: "The thing that worries me the most has happened! Da Xia has cotton, and the cotton clothes prepared for the soldiers are good for warmth. The body is not cold, and both hands can hold the sword. Once they fight with us, they will Occupy the advantage. Why is Xia Jun marching so slowly? They are just waiting to cool down. Zhang Chao can't defend the balcony county town, and will soon fall. Xia Guohui speeds up the march, and our defeat will follow."

Bai Meng also lamented, saying, "Xia Guo uses the time of the sky, which cannot be prevented by manpower. Now the weather will be getting colder and colder, and our situation will be more difficult. We must think of a good strategy that works, otherwise Daqin Dangerous!"

This is not to scare yourself, but something that will happen. When the soldier shivered with cold and couldn't hold the weapon, that was the lamb to be slaughtered. How could it be the Xia army's offensive?

Meng Tian once again set his sights on the map, and then said: "Your Majesty sent a secret letter. Prince Xiang has already gone to Yuan Guo himself. He will try his best to convince Yuan Guo to attack the Dongqi area. This is also a great opportunity for us to fight back, but Time waits for no one, we have to delay time!"

"What do you want to do?" Bai Meng knew that Meng Tian had already figured out a strategy.

Meng Fang gritted his teeth and said: "I am going to withdraw the third line of defense and place my troops in the main prefectures and mansions. I don’t want to resist the Xia army, but I can hold the opponent’s speed! This way, I can create for Prince Xiang. Enough time!"

Bai Meng nodded and said: "For the present plan, there is only this way. But this is very risky. We spread our forces to the cities. If the Khan of the Yuan Kingdom can't get the Dongqi area, or even lose, then Xia Jun We can easily break them one by one, and we have no room for maneuver, and in the end only Qin Du is left."

Meng Tian replied: "So I have been hesitating, this is a dangerous game. In fact, the Yuan Khan is also very anxious. The weather is getting worse and worse. Now the main forces of Xia are dealing with Qin. If he doesn't take advantage of this God-given opportunity to looting the Dongqi area, then there will be no chance, so the Yuan Khan will definitely attack Xia at any cost. He is helping us, but also himself."

Bai Meng slapped the table and shouted: "Dang Duan keeps suffering from the chaos, Lao Meng, I support you!"

Meng Tian nodded, then made up his mind.

Subsequently, a series of dispatch orders were issued from the military account, and Meng Tian assigned his army to various counties or palaces, forming chess pieces blocking the way, blocking Xia Jun's marching speed.

......

At this time, the army in the middle road, Han Xin has taken the balcony county city.

The city originally had few troops, and most of them were forcibly recruited people. The weather was severe and cold. They stood shivering on the city gate. Facing Daxia's strong bows and crossbows, there was not much difficulty in taking down the city.

Afterwards, Xiao Rui's military order was issued to the other Seventh Route Soldiers and Horses in the form of an eagle report, and the marching speed could finally be increased, and now Daxia began to show off.

Next, the speed of the middle army where Xiao Rui was located also increased significantly. Although the weather is very cold, the court has prepared warm clothes for the soldiers. In addition to the cotton-padded clothes, there are gloves, hats, and cotton shoes. Although it is hard to drive in the cold wind, Daxia soldiers are already very happy compared to Qin Jun.

Passing through the balcony county, we entered Shannan county.

Soon, when the army in the middle road passed a palace city, they found that thirty or forty thousand Qin soldiers were garrisoned in the palace city, blocking their way.

Han Xin sent forward to call for battle, but the other party did not say anything. The tortoise couldn't get out of the city, and the persuasion to surrender didn't work. In desperation, he could only attack the city forcibly.

Continuing the march, they encountered another Qin army with the help of terrain to block it. There are only more than 20,000 people on the other side. Who gives them the courage?

The army was overwhelmed, and the opponent was defeated and fled hastily, but this delay was another few days.

At the same time, the other seven roads also encountered this situation. The Qin army was dispersed from the original concentrated force to various points, harassing and obstructing the advance of Daxia soldiers. Obviously, their intention has been achieved, and it has indeed affected the marching speed of Daxia's soldiers and horses.

"It seems that Qin State has started colluding with Yuan State."

As night fell, the army camped and rested. In the military tent where Xiao Rui was resting, Han Xin, Zhang Liang and others were all present, Xiao Rui said with a smile.

With a clever commander and resourceful counselor, how can one fail to see the true intention of Qin’s change of strategy, nothing more than to delay time. After all, the Khan of the Yuan Dynasty mustered his troops to reach the Dongqi area and it would take at least a month’s journey. The country must delay time.

Zhang Liang smiled and said: "This is inevitable. Qin must repel us now and must draw a salary from the bottom. Once the Yuan army takes the Dongqi area and seizes the three passes of the Qinling Mountains, then we will become rootless. This is a good strategy. The Khan of the Yuan Kingdom will definitely attack, but they have not counted it. If we dare to fight Qin with our troops, will we not be prepared? We are not afraid of the Yuan army's action, or they are afraid that they will not act."

"Yeah, I'm not afraid of them acting, I'm afraid they won't move." Xiao Rui also smiled.

Why keep Huo Qubing in the north of Dongqi area? Isn't it just to guard against the Yuan army?

Moreover, the eastern part of the Dongqi area is Suzhou and Ganzhou in Anbei, and the garrisons of Changsheng Houtian and Zhenyuanhou can respond to Huo Qubing at any time.

Xiao Rui had already left enough troops, and then he was waiting for the Yuan Guo cavalry who couldn't open his eyes to attack.

In addition, why didn't Temujin cooperate with Qin? Naturally because of Guo Jia. Guo Jia persuaded Temujin that, for Temujin, it was his highest pursuit at this stage to rule the Yuan country and become the new Khan, and let Xia Guo consume the power of the Khan, and Tiemu could really rise up.

Therefore, under Guo Jia's suggestion, Temujin would take advantage of the opportunity to stab Yuan Khan in the back.

At that time, the Yuan country will be in chaos.

"Han Xin, since Qin Jun wants to delay time, we should report according to their thoughts. Although it has delayed our speed, the loss of each city will make Qin's military and people's minds even more devastated." Xiao Rui ordered.

Han Xin got up to accept the decree and said, "Humble duty to accept the decree."

Xiao Rui nodded and took out another Eagle Report.

This is the latest battle from Wei. Daxia sent a total of 500,000 troops to aid Yan. Not only did it help Yan to reverse the situation, but it also started a counterattack since being beaten. Wei has already retreated steadily.

However, as the temperature drops sharply now, the fighting between Yan and Wei has also decreased, and their soldiers have not had winter coats.

For this reason, Yan Linglong asked Daxia to buy cotton many times, but was refused.

Now Daxia’s focus is to destroy the State of Qin, and after Qin, the goal is naturally the State of Wei and State of Yan.

Why Xiao Rui wanted to provide reinforcements to the State of Yan was nothing more than to destroy the State of Wei through the hands of the State of Yan. Yan Guo was able to destroy Wei Guo, which was also a great consumption to him.

Even if Yan Linglong knew what Daxia's plan was, she couldn't refuse, so she could only fall into the trap. But Xiao Rui was also curious, how would Yan Linglong guard against Daxia? Xiao Rui thought hard, but couldn't figure it out.

Even Zhang Liang and Jia Xu couldn't guess what Yan Linglong would do.

......

In the following days, the Eighth Route Soldiers and Horses continued to advance, and the marching speed just mentioned slowed down because of the cities along the way.

Half a month later, the Zhonglu army walked out of Shannan County and entered Fenglin County.

Because Meng Tian changed his strategy and canceled the third line of defense stationed in Fenglin County, Daxia continued to advance and took down cities along the way. It was like a broken bamboo~www.wuxiahere.com~ At this moment, Qin State Several counties in the east have all fallen, the people of Qin have lost their confidence, and chaos has appeared in some places.

As early as ten days ago, Qin Zheng received the eagle letter from Qin Yu. The Khan of the Yuan Kingdom had sent 150,000 elite cavalry soldiers, led by his own brother, and was heading towards the Dongqi area. Counting the time, it should be almost here.

Therefore, Qin Zheng and Meng Tian are both eagerly waiting, waiting for the Yuan Guo cavalry to enter the Dongqi area, so that they can be transferred from their disadvantages and their efforts will be rewarded.

When Daxia's soldiers and horses advanced to Heishui County, and only one Xianyang County was left from Qin Capital, the Yuan Dynasty cavalry finally reached the north of Mohe County in the Dongqi area.

One hundred and fifty thousand cavalry showed their hideous fangs, ready to go south to looting.

At the same time, the scout also passed the situation of the Yuan Dynasty cavalry to Huo Qubing through the Eagle Falcon.

"finally come!"

Huo Qubing picked up the hook and sickle, showing a touch of serious murder on her delicate face.
