-
This was because the battle situation at that time was very tense, and the strength of the Qin army at that time was very strong, and the Zhao State was also very powerless at that time, and it was very far away from the battlefield, so there was no rescue of troops.
-
Because at that time, the king of Zhao and the kingdoms were relatively far away from the battlefield, and there were no extra manpower and material resources to rescue the trapped Zhao army.
-
Because King Zhao was mediocre, he thought that he could sit back and relax, so Antu enjoyed himself, and the vassal states were all hanging high, so there was no rescue.
-
At that time, even if the troops were sent, there was no way to rescue, the gap in strength was too large, and finally the Zhao soldiers were saved by besieging Wei and forcing them to retreat.
-
Because the main force of the Zhao army of 400,000 was already in Changping, and there was no way to come to the rescue, the Qin army was surrounded by water, and the Zhao State could not be saved.
-
Because the Battle of Changping has brought a lot of damage, and the personnel are miserable, he needs to recuperate at this time, so he is unwilling to lead troops to attack Zhao State.
-
This is because after the end of the Changping War, the social changes were particularly large, and the losses were very heavy, so he was unwilling to lead troops to attack Zhao, and the chance of success was also very low.
-
Because the Qin army at that time was also very heavy, this situation would occur, and if it attacked Zhao, it would bring great damage to its troops.
-
Because other countries will not benefit from lending a hand, the Battle of Changping is a war between two countries, and unless an alliance is made, other countries are not qualified to intervene.
-
Zhao and Qin were both powerful countries at that time, and other countries wished that both sides would lose and lose, so how could they give Zhao a helping hand. However, in the end, when Zhao was about to be destroyed, other countries still helped Zhao.
-
Because other countries do not dare to wade into this troubled water, they are especially afraid that they will cause trouble on themselves, after all, they are a small country.
-
The failure of Zhao's diplomatic strategy led to the absence of foreign reinforcements in April 260 BC, when the Qin army sent troops to capture Shangdang and took advantage of the situation to attack the Zhao army in Changping. King Zhao Xiaocheng sent Lian Po to lead the Zhao army to meet the battle, and Lian Po began to attack the Qin army. In the face of the powerful Qin army, Lian Po could not take advantage of it at all, and in June Wang Di led the Qin army to attack the Zhao army, and Lian Po lost two important cities, Wolf and Erzhang.
By July, all the Zhao army's ramparts west of the Dan River had been lost, and the first line of defense built by Lian Po had been lost. Lian Po led the Zhao army to build a barrier east of the Dan River, and the two armies were in a stalemate.
-
Because other countries have no manpower to come to the rescue, their own situation is difficult to say.
-
Because other countries don't want to meddle in the past, what if they get themselves into it? And they don't have much appreciation for Zhao Kuo.
-
It may be that they don't want to do something that they regret, so they don't have to manage it.
-
This was due to the frequent annexation wars between vassal states, and the strength of the Qin state far surpassed that of other countries.
-
The main reason is that the situation between countries is very complicated and there are entanglements of interests.

<> "After the Battle of Changping, if Bai Qi leads the army to attack the Zhao Congress, will it succeed?"
The state of Zhao lost a large number of soldiers and generals, was demoralized, and the army was exhausted. At this time, Zhao may only be able to rely on some remnants of troops to resist. Although the exact number is difficult to determine, it is certain that the resistance of the Zhao State has been greatly weakened.
As a famous general of the Qin State, Bai Qi has great military achievements and outstanding military talents. He showed great command and tactical literacy in the Battle of Changping. If Bai Qi directly attacked Zhao after the Battle of Changping, his chances of victory should be relatively large.
First, although the Qin State was extremely heavy, it still had a considerable amount of combat power available. Although the exact number cannot be determined, the combat effectiveness of the Qin army should not be underestimated. Coupled with Bai Qi's command skills, he was able to effectively mobilize and utilize the forces of the Qin army to launch an effective attack on the Zhao state.
Second, Zhao's resistance had been greatly weakened. In the nine years after the Battle of Changping, Zhao did not recover its forces, and the country remained empty. Under these circumstances, it was difficult for Zhao to organize a strong resistance army. In the face of Bai Qi's attack, Zhao Guo may be difficult to resist.
In general, if Bai Qi directly attacked Zhao after the Battle of Changping, his chances of victory should be relatively large. However, in actual history, Bai Qi did not directly attack the Zhao state, but was swayed by political factors, which ultimately led to the defeat of the Qin army. There are many contingencies and uncertainties in the development of history, so it is impossible to know for sure whether Bai Qi would have been able to win the battle against Zhao had the circumstances at that time changed.
Therefore, each era of war has its own specific background and conditions, and military operations are full of variables. Although King Qin Zhao was victorious in his first attack on Zhao, he failed in his second attack. This was due to the fact that Zhao used his ingenuity and diplomacy to establish mutually beneficial relations with other countries over the course of a year, forming assistance to the Qin army.
In addition, after Bai Qikeng killed 400,000 troops of Zhao State, the princes from all walks of life did not dare to intervene rashly, fearing Bai Qi's prestige. Finally, if the Qin army quickly attacked Handan, it should be able to achieve a greater victory by taking advantage of the shaking of the Zhao state. However, King Qin Zhao decided to withdraw his troops and sue for peace, which was due to the serious consideration of the Qin army and the need to recuperate.
History teaches us that war is always full of variables and uncertainties. Just like Cao Cao and King Qin Zhao, they lost the opportunity to fight, which ultimately affected the course of their unification of the world. Therefore, in military operations, it is necessary to comprehensively consider all aspects of the war and make reasonable decisions in order to achieve victory, otherwise he will leave a strong mark in the history of Qin's unification of the world.

He did not have a sufficient garrison in the rear, and used the tactics of attacking with all his troops in battle or war, so he chose to hold on to the spot afterwards. At that time, Zhao Kuo and 400,000 people were all surrounded, and the news could not be spread at all, and the historical records said that King Qin sent many rescuers at any cost.
-
At that time, all 400,000 troops were encircled, and the news could not be spread at all, and the army of Zhao sent people to support, but the situation of being surrounded was too serious, and there were no troops to call on for a total of two months.
-
At that time, the state of Zhao had already been severely hit and had lost a lot of troops. They are already too busy to take care of themselves.
The Changping battle between Qin and Zhao was more likely to win in any way, and Lian Po adopted a defensive policy, which was indeed a good method when Qin was strong and Zhao was weak, but it was not a long-term solution; Since the Shang Dynasty changed the law, the Qin State rewarded cultivation and warfare, and both the quality of soldiers and grain and grass reserves far surpassed that of Zhao. In this war, both sides invested a lot of troops, and after the end of the war, the number of soldiers killed by Zhao alone reached 400,000, and the daily consumption of these 400,000 people was not a small amount. Lian Po has adhered to the defensive policy for more than a year, and Zhao can be said to have tightened his belt to live, Zhao is not as good as Qin, and its geographical location itself is not rich in food, and it is very likely that Zhao will be consumed to death first in a defensive war. >>>More
During the Warring States Period, Qin and Zhao were both great powers, Qin became very powerful through the Shang Dynasty reform, and Zhao became very strong through Zhao Wuling King Hu Fu Cavalry and Archery, and both countries could eventually dominate the world. Both Zhao and Qin invested a lot of troops in the Battle of Changping, and supported the war with the strength of the whole country, and the king of Zhao fell into a divisive plan and replaced Lian Po with Zhao Kuo, as a result, the Zhao army was defeated, and it was only a matter of time before Qin unified the world. So if Li Mu replaced Lian Po as the commander in the Battle of Changping, would Zhao Guo win? >>>More
<> claim that the Qin army lost 300,000 men is somewhat exaggerated. >>>More
Because Zhao Guojun at that time fell for someone else's counter-plot, he didn't trust Lian Po very much, so he used Zhao Kuo. Although Zhao Kuo was very talented in military affairs, he had no experience in leading troops to fight, and the main reason for the defeat of the Battle of Changping was because Zhao Guojun replaced Lian Po.
Bai Qi is not afraid of Lian Po, but Bai Qi is not suitable for this kind of confrontational war, and Bai Qi has other battles to fight, so King Qin did not send Bai Qi to fight Lian Po.
