The 200,000 strong Qin army advanced for nearly 50 miles.
In front of them, they met the 300,000-strong army of Zhao that seemed to have been waiting for a long time.
Ever since the Battle of Changping, the State of Zhao had lost 400,000 soldiers, and its national strength had been greatly damaged. Even after so many years, it still had not recovered. This 300,000-strong army had already been scraped together.
If all of them were to be lost here again, the military strength of the Zhao Country would probably fall to a level that was even weaker than the Han Country.
"Dong dong dong-"
The war drums sounded continuously, and a desolate and murderous aura came from both sides.
At this moment, in the center of the Qin army, Old General Meng Ao and King Ying Zheng were standing on a chariot, commanding the army.
Following the orders, the 200,000 Qin soldiers adjusted their formation and prepared to face the enemy in the best possible way.
The Zhao army was also adjusting their formation.
At the same time, every general in the army was also exhorting and sternly warning their subordinates.
In such a large-scale battle, it was absolutely impossible to move alone. Otherwise, they would die without knowing how. They had to follow the movements of the army closely.
Zhao Mu rode on the Moonlight Lion and stood in front of his army. He held the Silver Dragon Bane Spear and said seriously,"
"Everyone, listen up. After entering the state of war, you must remember to obey orders and cooperate with your companions around you!”
"Remember, you can't be greedy and act rashly. Otherwise, you'll only lose your life in vain.”
"Anyone who disobeys orders and destroys the overall situation, don't blame my spear for not recognizing you.”
“.........”
If they encountered disobedient soldiers, they would dare to cause trouble at this time.
Then, he reckoned that Zhao Mu would personally take his life before the enemy beheaded him.
Among the 3,000 soldiers, the White Horse Righteous Congregation would obey Zhao Mu's orders 100%. Only the other 2800 Qin soldiers would obey his orders. After all, they were not the most elite soldiers of Qin.
The three '200 to 500 Lords' beside Zhao Mu nodded solemnly.
After being soldiers for so many years, they naturally knew the seriousness of military orders. They definitely could not rashly violate them.
"Dong dong dong-"
The war drums that boosted morale began to sound heavily.
The soldiers of the two armies tensed up, their faces revealing a strong killing intent. A great battle was inevitable.
"Wuwuwu ~~~"
The deep and majestic sound of the attack horn suddenly sounded.
Old General Meng Ao pulled out the long sword at his waist, pointed it in Li Mu's direction, and roared in a powerful voice.
"Charge over! Those who take Li Mu's head will be promoted to three levels and rewarded with 100 gold!”
"Kill them!"
The Qin army was the first to launch a strong attack. The angry roars gathered together and almost caused the mountains to collapse and the earth to crack.
Countless Qin soldiers began to charge fearlessly.
At the same time, Li Mu, who was the general of the Zhao army, was not willing to be outdone. He issued orders one after another. Under the command of the God of Military Formations, the entire army was built into a defensive line that was as strong as an iron wall.
Although they had a certain advantage in numbers, Li Mu knew very well that the Qin army's combat strength was far superior to his own.
If they wanted to win, they could only maintain their defense first and then find another opportunity to launch a counterattack.
However, the other party was also the famous commander of the State of Qin, Meng Ao. It was not easy to find an opportunity. This was destined to be a protracted battle.
Very soon, the vanguard troops of both sides collided. Tragic cries rang out endlessly, and a dense killing intent soared into the sky.
As the trusted aide of King Ying Zheng, Zhao Mu was naturally assigned to the position of the central army. This was the safest place, but also the place furthest away from the battlefield.
To be honest, Zhao Mu would rather go into battle and kill the enemies. This way, he could still obtain a lot of acting points.
If he just stood there in a daze and did nothing, he might not even be able to drink a mouthful of soup after this battle.
"How unlucky, why was I arranged to be in the middle army?”
"Alright, Yi De. Old General Meng Ao must have his own reasons for doing this. Moreover, the position of the middle army is the most important.”
"Sigh, I still want to be the vanguard and kill the enemies.”
"Wait, the Zhao army has begun to move.”
Standing in the middle of the army was a high vantage point, so it was easy to see the changes in the battle.
The vanguard troops were like a meat grinder, constantly devouring the lives of the soldiers on both sides, and blood flowed like a river.
However, Zhao Mu clearly saw two cavalry units charging out from the left and right flanks of the Zhao army. Their banners were 'Zhang' and 'Lian'.
They each led 20,000 Zhao cavalry and charged towards the flank.
The land of Yanzhao was close to the grasslands in the north, so it was rich in cavalry. It had a unique advantage in this aspect.
"Meng Tian, Wang Ben, listen up!"
"I'm here." x2
"The two of you will lead your troops to the left and right wings and cooperate with them to block Zhang He and Lianpo's attacks.”
"Yes." x2
Meng Tian and Wang Ben, who were also in the middle of the army, cupped their fists and promised.
Even though they were only two to five hundred Lords and were in charge of one thousand soldiers of the State of Qin, at the crucial moment, it was still necessary for the newly risen youths to step out.
The generals in charge of the left and right wings had rich battle experience, but their abilities were too mediocre. Facing famous generals like Zhang He and Lianpo, they would definitely pale in comparison.
Now, on the battlefield, relying on the bravery of the Qin soldiers, they were gradually showing their advantage.
Meng Ao didn't want to be ambushed from the flank and cause a complete collapse.
