249, Li Jian shocked everyone(1/3)

The Zhao army lined up at the Ba Bridge on the east side of Xianyang City.

Through Ba Bridge, you can truly enter the boundary of Xianyang City.

At this moment, west of Baqiao is densely packed with houses.

The house was silent, and countless pairs of eyes were staring at the 30,000 Zhao Jun outside in nervous and horror.

Wei Wuji stood beside Li Jian and expressed his feelings.

"Why can't the wall of Xianyang City be built to the east of Ba Bridge?"

Li Jian said lightly:

"Because after the city wall is built, the city will be difficult to expand."

Apart from the Chu State, which was constantly fleeing and moving its capital in a hurry because of being beaten by Qin State, Xianyang was the "youngest" capital among the princes of the Warring States Period.

It was supervised by Shang Yang, the left governor of Qin State at that time, and it has only been ninety years since then.

Since Shang Yang's reforms, Qin State has risen rapidly and has been the fifth monarch of Qin Xiaogong, Ying Zhu, in power.

The rapid rise of national strength has caused Xianyang's area to expand continuously, and the old city involved in Shang Yang has long been unable to meet the needs.

Not only the nobles, officials and Qianshou in the city moved out to build new mansions outside the city walls, but also the later Xianyang Palace was moved out of the old city and built in the south of the city.

This is a very strange situation. Because the continuous strength leads to the continuous expansion of Xianyang City, and the continuous expansion makes the construction of the new city wall very difficult.

For the Qin people who value practicality, if the built city wall is too large, it will lead to serious waste.

However, the newly built city wall is too small and it will repeat the mistakes of the old city wall.

So, I simply stopped repairing it.

In front of Li Jian's finger, the dense Qin houses west of Ba Bridge were filled with tears and said with a smile:

"Mr. Xinling, you see it. In fact, under normal circumstances, this marquis doesn't need to worry about supply."

Wei Wuji suddenly realized.

Indeed, there are so many houses outside the old city walls, and these houses must store a large amount of food and food, as well as other daily necessities.

It’s up to the war to support the war.

The horse whip in Li Jian's hand moved slowly again and pointed to the southwest.

"But this time I am not in the mood to care about these Guizhou leaders. My Marquis' goal is... Xianyang Palace."

Wei Wuji looked at Li Jian in surprise.

Until this moment, Wei Wuji finally confirmed in his heart that Li Jian’s target was really Xianyang City, and it was really Xianyang Palace in Xianyang City.

He rushed thousands of miles away, ignoring all the Qin cities that were strictly guarded.

Relying on the unparalleled mobility of the cavalry, he bypassed the city of Xianyang, and successfully arrived.

This is an extremely bold and crazy plan.

This is a plan that no vassal state can achieve except Zhao State.

This is a crazy plan that even all the enemies of Zhao State, including Wei Wuji, who was in the Zhao State army, did not expect.

But Li Jian did it.

Wei Wuji suddenly felt extremely curious in his heart.

Once you arrive in Xianyang City, you will be able to see Xianyang Palace immediately.

Then what?

Li Jian had only these 30,000 cavalry under his command, and Wei Wuji could see clearly these days that Li Jian did not carry any siege equipment with him.

Looking for materials around to create siege equipment? This is not realistic.

Although Li Jian led these 30,000 cavalry to Xianyang City, the fact is that no Qin troops were killed or injured along the way.

After knowing that Li Jian arrived in Xianyang City, the Qin defenders in all cities in Guanzhong would definitely take action as soon as possible and rush to help Xianyang City.

If the Qin people were moving fast enough, either tonight or tomorrow during the day, the first batch of reinforcements would arrive.

Every day afterwards, tens of thousands of reinforcements will arrive.

If we delay any further, the 30,000 elite Qin army leaders led by Wei Liao and the cavalry of Yiqu people will arrive one after another.

By then, the entire Guanzhong will become a huge net.

Li Jian, the ferocious dragon, will be trapped by this net.

In the end, he was captured here by the Qin people!

Could this be the final outcome?

"No, no."

Wei Wuji murmured to himself, denying this conjecture.

This shouldn't be the case.

Li Jian's thousands of miles of raids had a complete plan.

The map drawn by King Wu of Zhao himself decades ago is enough to illustrate this point.

It took a lot of effort to come to Xianyang City to die? That was something that a fool did.

Li Jian is not a fool, Li Jian is one of the smartest people in the world.

The 30,000 cavalry of Zhao State moved slowly, passed by Ba Bridge, and then headed towards Xianyang Palace.

Next to the road, all the doors of the houses are closed.

Apart from the thunderous sound of horse hooves, there seems to be no sound in this world.

A little girl curled up in her mother's arms and hid in the corner of the house.

Her father and two teenage brothers, holding kitchen knives and hoes, nervously looked through the window at the cavalry of the Zhao State brigade who were racing through the window.

There were obviously five people in the room, but they were so quiet that they couldn't even hear the sound of breathing.

After a long time, the sound of horse hooves suddenly eased, and then gradually faded away.

My father, who had been extremely nervous, suddenly felt a little limp and sat down on the ground.

"The people of Zhao are gone."

Everyone in the room showed their faces of the disaster.

The mother hurriedly said:

"Master, are we going to run away?"

A bitter smile appeared on my father's weathered square face.

"Escape? The people of Zhao are cavalry, where can we escape?"

"Excellent, just pick up your weapons and fight against the people of Zhao!"

After the father finished speaking, he looked at the two sons in front of him and hesitated a little.

After a moment, the father hugged his eldest son's shoulder and said softly.

"If we are really killed by the people of Zhao, you will take your brother, sister and mother to surrender to the people of Zhao!"

The eldest son, who was just a 14 or 15-year-old boy, widened his eyes and looked at his father with confusion.

He couldn't understand why his father could say such words!

After passing Ba Bridge, Xianyang Palace was already in sight.

Through the palace wall, Li Jian's eyes fell on the tallest building.

The human eye cannot see what is there, but Li Jian always has a feeling that King Ying Zhu of Qin should be there.

So Li Jian whispered to the left and right.

"Rise the red flag."

He shouted loudly from left to right.

"Rise the red flag!"

Under the gaze of everyone, countless red flags slowly stood up.

Red is the color of Jin State and the color of Zhao State today.

Qin State is still dark, and countless black flags are flying above the palace walls.

The black and red are like the Jing River and Wei River, both very similar and clear.

Ying Zhu was indeed looking at Li Jian.

Seeing the red flag rising, Ying Zhu's face looked extremely ugly.

"This is the bastard Li Jian demonstrating with me!"

"What happened to Wei Liao? He really put Li Jian in!"
