Chapter 124: To Each His Own Law
"If you were to sneak into the city as your lords and want to set fire to the city, what would be your first choice?" Han Xin was afraid of attracting the eyes of everyone at the table again, so he hurriedly threw out the question and looked at Xiao He.
When Xiao He heard this, his heart only turned slightly, and he was pleasantly surprised: "Master Hou is setting fire to Zhao Tuo's granary?" ”
"That's right, when Lord Junhou was in danger, he could still think of burning down the granary of the rebel garrison and giving the rebels a fatal blow, such a talented Han was convinced."
Han Xin took advantage of Xiao He's question, and quite ingratiatingly patted Li Yu with a dose of sycophancy, and then looked at Zhang Han.
After all, Zhang Han is the supreme commander of this counterinsurgency.
When Zhang Han heard this, he nodded undeniably and sighed: "Han Guard's analysis is convincing, and the wisdom and courage of the prince are even more intimidating. ”
Zhang Han, who listened again, continued: "Our army is fifty miles away from the county seat of Hainan, and we can still see the fire in the sky with the help of the mountain. ”
After all, as the commander of the first army, if he still can't see through the deep meaning and inform Li Yu of the meaning he wants to convey, then Zhang Han, the commander-in-chief, doesn't have to do it anymore.
As soon as the words turned, I saw Zhang Han's expression darkened, and he got up and said: "Since it is inevitable that the rebels will run out of food, our army should be surrounded but not fought, so that Zhao Tuo's army will be trapped in the city."
The crowd bowed their heads.
"Pass on my military order, the whole army will be pulled out, and it will be pressed twenty miles in front of Hainan County."
"Yes."
When the herald left, the tent fell into deep thought again.
After a while, Zhang Liang suddenly asked, "The general is too conservative?" ”
Zhang Han was stunned when he heard this, then looked at Zhang Liang and asked, "Oh? I don't know if the ovary has another plan? ”
Zhang Liang shook his head lightly and said, "The general wants to implement Rouhuai and force the rebels to surrender.
Although this is the best policy and the ultimate goal, it ignores the fact that Lord Hou and Lord Xiangguo are in crisis this time......"
"The ovary, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Seeing that Zhang Liang was worried, Zhang Han signaled.
"Liang thinks that it is better to quell the rebellion sooner rather than later, although General Hong led an army of 100,000 troops to intercept and bring reinforcements on the west side of the water, but the opponent's strength is twice as much as ours, if there is an accident, the opportunity created by the prince and the marquis will disappear, and even Zhao Tuo will find the opportunity to break the boat."
……
Zhang Liang's voice fell, and Zhang Han was already frowning, falling into deep thought.
Although Zhang Liang's words were extremely vague, Zhang Han could still hear the meaning of his words.
Hong Sheng's ability was not enough to lead an army of 100,000, otherwise he would not have made a big mistake before, so that Zhao Tuo's army would have retreated to his hometown in Hainan.
Although the former general Lang Qi has good ability, he has been awakened by Li Yu before, and Zhang Han naturally does not dare to take the risk of appointing him.
No one is available, which is also the main reason for Zhang Han's conservative approach.
Zhang Han's expression changed several times, and when he thought that there was still a back hand buried in the city, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then said: "Indeed, as the ovary said, it is better to be sooner rather than later." ”
As if seeing through Zhang Han's subordinates, Zhang Liang focused his eyes on Han Xin and said: "In the past, Hou Yeai took Li Cunxiao as the striker, and there were 60,000 Vietnamese troops under the leader of Jiying, and now the general only needs to lead an army to sweep the rebel strongholds around the county town of Hainan, so that Zhao Tuo can be isolated." ”
"Of course, if you can still find someone right now, and divide a group of men and horses to cooperate with the general left and right, and sweep the surroundings with a combined attack, it will be more appropriate."
As soon as Zhang Liang's words came out, he couldn't help but shock Han Xinhu's body.
Looking for someone else?
Divide a team?
Isn't that just talking about yourself?
When Zhang Han heard this, he didn't speak yet. I only heard Han Xin surrender his hand and volunteered: "Xin Ke can lead an army and cooperate with the general to pull out the rebel stronghold." ”
Han Xin had already had a highlight moment before, but it was better to take the opportunity to ask for his life again this time.
Then he saw Zhang Han's face was overjoyed, and said: "Han Guards are the people of the prince, and they will be trustworthy, but I don't know how many people Han Guards need?" ”
The reason why Zhang Han asked this was to show his trust in the prince's subordinates; Second, I also want to explore the bottom of this tall guard.
But Han Xin didn't think about it so much, Wen Yan stretched out his finger and twisted it, and said with a smile: "The more self, the better." ”
……
Aside from the 60,000 Vietnamese army, the 30,000 vanguard army led by Li Cunxiao and the 27,000 naval army led by Chen Qingzhi.
Zhang Han can mobilize no more than 30,000 troops at the moment, but he didn't expect Han Xin to open his mouth and say, "The more the merrier......"
Okay......
How much should I give?
Han Xin traveled with the army, so he naturally knew the situation in the army, and saw that Zhang Han's face changed slightly, and his heart and words were biased, so he said: "The general is enough to give me 8,000 people." ”
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Han suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and said in a positive voice: "Okay! The general ordered you to be the left general before the battle, Liu Bang, Xiao He was the accompanying general, and led 8,000 soldiers to sweep away the rebels on the left flank. ”
Although it was quite far from the 15,000 people expected in his heart, Han Xin was still more excited than disappointed.
After all, this is the leader of the first battle, and there are acquaintances like Liu Bang and Xiao He accompanying him, Han Xin replied with a spring breeze on his face: "Get the order." ”
And Zhang Han's unintentional distribution, if Li Yu was present, he would be surprised to close his mouth.
It's a pity that Li Yu was busy trying to find a way to deal with the next crisis, and he didn't have a chance to appreciate it at all.
Zhao Tuo's anger was not so easy to receive, and it was Li Si who bore the brunt of the crime.
In the county guard's mansion, ten generals gathered, and one of them knelt in the middle of the hall.
Zhao Tuo had already been in his armor, with the sword on his side, and the Funiu Road, who had only listened, said: "Zhao Shuai, although General Lin has committed the crime of dereliction of duty, now is not the time to surrender. ”
"The last general is brave, please ask Zhao Shuai to let General Lin make up for his mistakes first and deal with the current situation."
"What General Niu said is extremely true, now that Zhang Han's army is moving, he must have seen a fire in the city and wanted to approach the ghosts."
Peng Li knew that if he wanted to get rid of the suspicion of the inner ghost, he had to follow the Funiu Road closely, and Lin Ling, Zhao Tuo's henchmen, simply followed the words of the Funiu Road to intercede for Lin Ling.
Seeing this, the generals also spoke one after another.
Zhao Tuo looked at the ten partial generals under him expressionlessly, and he was shocked in his heart.
But Zhao Tuo also knew that stabilizing the army's heart was the first priority at the moment, so he said:
"The granary fire is not discussed for the time being, and now that it is an eventful season, I hope you will work together to tide over the difficulties."
Seeing that everyone agreed, Zhao Tuo said again: "My son has led the barbarian army to Lishui, thinking that the mediocre Hongsheng will not dare to touch the enemy army twice as large as him, so we only need to survive two days in the city, and we will be able to turn defeat into victory." ”
Seeing that everyone was helping, Zhao Tuo no longer blamed himself for dereliction of duty.
Lin Ling hurriedly expressed his loyalty and said: "What Zhao Shuai said is that Zhang Han must be jealous of us having Li Si as a hostage in his heart.
At present, it is only necessary to recall the garrison outside the city, close the city gate and investigate the arson spies, and then clean up the internal response, so as to prevent Zhang Hanli from joining with the outside, and only wait for the young marshal to send reinforcements, and our army will be able to win. ”
Zhao Tuo nodded undeniably when he heard this, then waved his hand to signal Lin Ling, and said, "Even if you are derelict in your duty, I ordered you to investigate the arson and the conspiracy." ”
When Lin Ling heard this, he hurriedly bowed: "Zhao Shuai, don't worry, the last general will definitely catch that **** fine and break it into thousands of pieces." ”
As soon as Lin Ling's words came out, Peng Ling's pupils shrank slightly, and his heart jumped suddenly.
Then he heard Zhao Tuo suddenly speak: "This time I can control the fire, General Peng has made a great contribution......
