Chapter 221 Heng'er designed a divine strategy to defeat the Yan soldiers
After some days, Hengzi was sitting on the bed drinking Dr. Jiang's medicine, when he saw Dr. Jiang come in, and muttered in his mouth as he walked: "I'm praying to God to burn incense again, what is the use of bowing down to an idol?"
After hearing this, Hengzi asked puzzledly: "Doctor Jiang, who is asking God to burn incense?
"It's not General Tian yet, according to the news from the front, the Yan army has launched an offensive against the Qi State again. Doctor Jiang replied helplessly, "Alas, the Yan Kingdom and the Qi Kingdom in the north have a feud, and these two countries, either he beats you, or you beat him." Although every time it is a small fight, every time it is very nervous in the Qi country, for fear that there will be another Le Yi in the Yan country (Le Yi is a general of the Yan army, and he once led the Yan army to unite with other countries to destroy the Qi country). It is said that General Tian has received an order to march north tomorrow and fight to the death with the Yan army. Every time General Tian went out of the camp to go to war, he had a habit, that is, before the battle, he asked the gods to burn incense, hoping to be blessed. ”
"The last time you went on an expedition, wasn't it a war?" asked Hengzi curiously.
"Last time I went out, not to fight, it was said that someone in Qi wanted to kidnap the king of Qi, and asked General Tian to rush to rescue the driver, and halfway through, news came from Qi that the danger of the king of Qi had been lifted, and asked us to go back to the camp to standby. ”
"Oh, I see, no wonder it seemed like it took a long time to get back to the camp when I went, but then I came back very quickly. ”
"Yes, it is said that Meng Weijun, one of the four princes, has been controlling the government for many years, and the power of the King of Qi has fallen. The State of Qi only knew that there was Meng Weijun, but did not know that there was a King of Qi, and the King of Qi was very dissatisfied with this. ”
"Listening to what you say, it was Meng Weiqun who kidnapped the King of Qi? It seems that the Qi Kingdom is not as stable as people say. Hengzi said.
"As for the details, I don't know, I just know that Qi is fine. ”
"This time, General Tian went to the front line to fight a decisive battle with the Yan army, has General Tian and the Yan army ever fought?" Hengzi asked again.
"I've fought many times. ”
"Win or lose?"
"Most of the defeats, the wins, are only small wins. ”
"Where is the war going this time?"
"It's not far from this North Mountain area. ”
Since Hengzi's last trip to the beach, Doctor Jiang felt that his body had almost recovered, so he didn't care much about him, and let him enter and leave the barracks at any time, so during this period, he had gone to Beishan and seen the terrain there, the terrain, the land, there were high mountains, mountain passes, etc., which were easy to defend and difficult to attack. According to Jiang Junyi, this time the war was started by the Yan army to take the initiative to attack Qi, Hengzi had been in the Lingyun Pavilion of Guigu Guan, read the book of war, knew some art of war, he also learned some information through Jiang Yi, and deduced that the Yan army would be proud of its victory, and it could lead the Yan army into danger and destroy it. He wanted to help Tian Meng in return for saving his life.
"Does General Tian still want to worship the gods before he leaves tomorrow?" asked Hengzi.
"I'm sure I'll have another pilgrimage tomorrow morning, it's an old habit. ”
"This statue place, apart from General Tian can go in to pay respects, who else can enter?" Hengzi knew that the statue was very mysterious, not everyone could enter it, he was a forbidden place.
"No one will come in except the old witch. Doctor Jiang said calmly.
"Doctor Jiang, can you find a chance to sneak in?"
"There's an opportunity, and it's now. ”
"Let's do something, we will definitely let the Qi army defeat the Yan army, what do you think?"
After hearing this, Doctor Jiang was overjoyed and said, "Do you have a way?"
Hengzi nodded, and without saying a word, he picked up the brush prescribed by Doctor Jiang, wrote a few columns of words on a cloth, and said to Doctor Jiang: "While General Tian is not there, please put this cloth at the statue, as long as General Tian can see it." ”
Doctor Jiang looked at Hengzi and said, "What kind of clever plan did you write?"
"It's not a high-level strategy, it's just a mental tactic, General Tian sees this volume, the Qi army will defeat the Yan army. ”
"Why don't you send it directly to General Tian?" asked Jiang Yi puzzled.
"Just because he believes in God, so he puts it in the statue of God, and after he gets it, he will definitely think that this is God's instructions, and he will do it, if we send it directly to General Tian, it will save the general's face, and the general may not adopt it. ”
"That's right, this is indeed a mental tactic, General Tian has been instructed by God, and he must be confident in defeating the Yan army. ”
"It is a mental tactic, and before the war, Doctor Jiang must not reveal to him that this is what we did. ”
"Of course. ”
Doctor Jiang suddenly understood Hengzi's intentions, he estimated that General Tian might have to leave the statue at this time, if he didn't take advantage of this time to do this, it would be difficult to have a chance in the future, this is because according to the old rules, after Tian Meng worshiped the gods, the god house will be sealed, and no one is allowed to enter. Early the next morning, Tian Meng personally opened the seal and worshiped God. So he didn't look at what was written on the cloth, so he hurried out and came to the vicinity of the statue, and when he saw that General Tian came out to worship God, he took the initiative to avoid him, and after seeing that he was far away, he quietly put the cloth scroll into the statue, and then saw the old witch seal the door of the statue.
Early the next morning, General Tian came to the statue to bow left and right according to his usual habits. After he worshiped the gods, he was just about to leave, when he suddenly saw a cloth scroll at the god's image, he picked it up and looked at it, only to see that it was written on it, "Ambush soldiers on both sides of the North Mountain, weak soldiers feign to fight, lure the enemy in the mountain pass, and the mountain soldiers on both sides bombard it." ”
After Tian Meng saw it, he thought about it, and he said to himself: "This is really a fairy manifestation, this is indeed a good plan." He took the cloth, worshipped himself again at the idol of the gods, and departed.
He had a clever plan and was confident, and immediately concentrated his troops and marched to the northern mountain.
When they reached Beishan, the Yan army had not yet reached the vicinity of Beishan. Tian Meng changed the tactics of the past according to the clever plan obtained from worshipping the gods, he did not let the whole army attack together and fight hard with the Yan army, but first ambushed the strong soldiers and defenders on both sides of the North Mountain. At this time, the Yan army reached the northern part of Beishan, lined up in formation, and challenged the Qi army. Tian Meng ordered Tian Luo to lead the weak troops out of Beishan to meet the Yan army, and warned them that they were only allowed to retreat, not to advance, and to obey the command.
Tian Luo led the weak army out of Beishan, as soon as the Yan army saw the Qi army come out to fight, he led the army to attack on all fronts, of course, the weak army of Qi was not the opponent of the Yan army, after several battles, retreated, the Yan army chased after it, and soon introduced the Yan army into the hinterland of the mountain col in Beishan.
Tian Meng saw that the Yan army had all entered the mountain pass, and the time was ripe, so he immediately sent a signal to the ambush soldiers on the left and right mountains.
As soon as the signal came out, the soldiers of the two mountains shot down the prepared rocks, bows and arrows together, the Yan army only saw the stones and arrows that were knocked down on the mountain, but did not see a soldier of the Qi army, as if the stones and arrows were falling from the sky, and suddenly, the Yan soldiers turned over on their backs, and became a mess, and the rocks on the mountain rolled down, killing and injuring countless Yan soldiers, and the arrows on the mountain shot straight down like raindrops, and the Yan soldiers were powerless to resist.
This war between the two countries ended in a complete victory for the Qi army, and the Yan army lost its troops and paid a heavy price.
The battle was won, and Hengzi came to Beishan and was deeply shocked to see the corpses scattered all over the mountains. Hengzi's heart was very heavy, they were all descendants of the Huaxia clan, why did they kill each other so brutally? When will this tragedy come to an end? Hengzi looked at this tragic scene, and he once again thought that Gu Xia's idea was right, which strengthened his conviction even more.
When the news reached Qidu, King Qi was very happy and announced on the spot that Tian Meng was to be rewarded.
After returning to the barracks, Tian Meng came to the statue again with great interest and worshiped the statue. After he finished worshipping, he just walked out of the door and saw Doctor Jiang standing outside the door.
"Doctor Jiang, what are you doing?"
"General, I'm here to collect the scroll of cloth from the idol. ”
"Silk rolls?"
"The cloth scroll was written by Hengzi and placed by his subordinates. ”
"So you made this silk scroll, why didn't you tell me about it earlier?"
"If I had told you earlier, you would have suspected that it was not divinely granted, and perhaps you would not have acted according to the plan. ”
"Fortunately, you said it early, otherwise, I really thought that the true god appeared and the silk scroll was bestowed. Tian Meng exclaimed.
"This Hengzi does have some background, and soon after he came to the barracks, he was able to plan this victory. Doctor Jiang said.
"Looks like I really didn't save the wrong man, call him to me, I have something to say to him. Tian Meng said.
"Okay. ”
Tian Meng sat alone in the general's camp, and Hengzi came.
"General Tian, do you have something to look for me?"
"Hengzi, I've been busy with military affairs lately, and I don't have time to go over to see you, you won't blame me, right?"
"There, if the general hadn't saved me on the beach, the kid would have died long ago. ”
"You came to Immortal Island, you didn't tell the truth. ”
"I did come from Zongheng Island, I have never been to any fairy island. ”
"Is the scroll of cloth on the idol of the god written by you?"
"Yes. Hengzi thought about it, Doctor Jiang must have told Tian Meng, and he could only admit it.
"Then how do you know the key points of this battle?"
"I have read some military books, and recently I have been to the Beishan area, and I have a good understanding of the terrain and landform there. I heard Doctor Jiang say that the general was going to fight with the Yan army, so I took the liberty of coming up with this rule, and asked the general not to be surprised. ”
"This time our army has completely defeated the Yan army, I am too late to be happy, how can I be surprised? You are a talented man, are you willing to go with me to see the king of Qi?"
Hengzi thought that after the Battle of Changping in Zhao State, Zhao State could not compete with Qin at all, let alone dominate the Central Plains. And Qi is bordered by the East China Sea in the east, and it is the second most powerful country in the Seven Kingdoms to Qin State, if it can help Qi State to compete with Qin State and complete the task of unifying China, it would be great. He didn't want to see the Qin State unify the world, this was because his parents died at the hands of the Qin State, he deeply cherished these personal enmities, and it was of course a good thing to be able to see the King of Qi, so he agreed on the spot: "I am willing to go with the general." ”
