Reversal (1)
The news of the Chu army's total annihilation of the 100,000 army led by the crown prince of Wei quickly reached the hands of Gongsun Yan.
"W-how is this possible?" Gongsun Yan looked at the picture in front of him in surprise, and glanced at the generals below with puzzled eyes, hoping that they could give him an explanation.
There is a reason why Gongsun Yan was surprised by this defeat. First of all, according to the reservation plan, the crown prince is to take down the entire Luguan defense line and go to Wuguan to join the Qin army, but the prince did not do so, according to the news brought by the herald, the prince took the soldiers and horses to take Luyang, and then ignored the rest of the city, all the way south, without the slightest idea of wanting to support Wuguan, Gongsun Yan could see that the prince wanted to take Yingdu directly.
Maybe ordinary people think that it is normal for the crown prince to go like this, and after taking Lu Yang, he will pounce directly on Yingdu in a straight line, which is the fastest.
However, in Gongsun Yan's view, this is very abnormal. The crown prince's march route completely ignored the Chu army in the rest of the Luguan defense line, and he took a path that was easy to find, how could the prince do such a stupid thing and completely hand over the left and right flanks of his army to the Chu army.
Secondly, if the Chu State wants to defeat the 100,000 army of the crown prince's heir, it will have to be 80,000, and this time it is annihilation, total annihilation, it must be encircled and killed, which can be seen, then the Chu army must reach more than 100,000 to be completely annihilated, but now that the Chu State does not have so many soldiers and horses, where did the 100,000 army that suddenly appeared come from? This also puzzled Gongsun Yan.
Gongsun Yan is very chaotic now, and he really wants to complain about the crown prince in his heart, this is not a ten-year cerebral thrombosis that can't be used for this kind of operation, after breaking through a hole in the enemy army, he swaggered in directly, and handed over his left and right wings to Chu Jun very "at ease", is this Chu Jun his own person.
"General, the last general thinks that the army of the Chu army that suddenly came out to ambush the prince is, Xiang Jun's soldiers."
"Xiang Jun's 100,000 soldiers and horses? Didn't you say the other day that they appeared in Zhaoguan? How? Did you lie to me the other day? Gongsun Yan seemed to be a little angry, because this was related to the development of the entire battle situation, and he would lose all the games if he was careless.
The general arched his hand and said: "It is very likely that it is a suspicious soldier, and we may have been deceived by this suspicious soldier." ”
Gongsun Yan was a little disappointed in these generals, and said: "The enemy's suspicious plan will turn you around, what is the use of you?" ”
The general hurriedly cleared up his relationship and said, "The spies of the Vietnamese army said that they had encountered the main force of the Chu army. The Chu army also organized counterattacks many times, so the last general believed that the main force of the Chu army was in Zhaoguan. ”
"So you listened to the intelligence of the Vietnamese people, and you didn't check it at all? Well? Gongsun Yan asked this question trickily.
When the general heard this, he was in a cold sweat, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "General, the last general didn't mean that, the last general first found the traces of the Chu army in Zhaoguan, and then asked the spies of the Vietnamese army before making such a conclusion." ”
"Oh?" Gongsun Yan's sharp eyes stared at the general, "Then, why is the Chu army in Luyang and not in Zhaoguan?" In the end, you are still lazy and derelict in your duties, come to someone, drag it down, and behead it. ”
"General, don't!" A general next to him who was close to this general stood up and said, "The state of Chu is treacherous, and it is normal for scouts to be deceived." ”
Gongsun Yan smiled and said, "Normal, well, capital crimes can be avoided, but living crimes cannot be escaped, but I have a task, as long as you complete it, I can not only not hold you accountable, but also ensure that you are promoted, how about it?" ”
"I wonder what the general wants us to do?" The general asked.
Gongsun Yan took out the tiger talisman in his hand and said, "Lead the troops and sneak attack the grain road of Yan Kingdom." ”
"Huh?"
Gongsun Yan smiled and said: "I know you don't understand why I did this, and you don't have to understand why I did this, as long as you know that this is not harmful to you and Wei State." ”
"No!"
"Let's go down."
Beam.
"The crown prince's heir is dull and stupid, and the 100,000 army was given to the Chu State for nothing! Stupid! At the same time that Gongsun Yan received the news of the defeat of the crown prince's heir, the king of Wei also received it.
Wei Wangfu was very angry, of course, the disappearance of the crown prince also made him very worried, and sent troops out many times to find out the news of the crown prince's heir, of course, this is a later story.
Now Wei Wang Gang is more concerned about why the Chu Kingdom suddenly appeared with this army that can annihilate his own army of 100,000.
As it stands. It is very likely that this army is the strength of the troops that came out of the land of Huaisi, and it is impossible for Wuguan to be at all, and the battle reports from Wuguan say that the Qin State and the Chu State have suffered countless casualties every day, and it is impossible for there to be troops to draw out.
The two main battlefields, excluding Wuguan, are only the land of Huaisi.
The question is, an army that can annihilate an army of 100,000 must be more than 100,000 in size, so why didn't Gongsun Yan report on the movement of a force with a scale of more than 100,000 people?
Gongsun Yan is proficient in warfare, and it is impossible for him not to know about such a large-scale mobilization of troops. Of course, if he can't even see the movement of 100,000 troops, if he can't see it, then it will not be his turn to sit in the position of commander.
The key is that he didn't report the situation, which is a bit intriguing, because now he Wei Wang Gang has just abolished the original prince and set up this new prince, and the dispute between the princes is very fierce, and it cannot be ruled out that Gongsun Yan has a conspiracy.
Of course, this can only be settled after the autumn, after all, now that the national fortunes of Wei are in his hands, this battle will depend on him, and it will not be too late to get him after the battle.

Xinzheng.
At this time, the city was full of singing and singing, and the song and dance were sublimated, and there was no threat from the outside at all.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack!" A soldier on the city wall was quick to see the catapults that had suddenly emerged from the dense forest outside the city and was ready to launch the alarm.
Of course, it was really noon, most of the people were eating, and there were very few soldiers on the city walls, and the soldiers in the barracks did not think so when they heard the alarm, thinking that there was a fire somewhere.
After all, this is Xinzheng, the capital of South Korea, who can hit here?
Boom - Collapse -
With a loud bang, a boulder slammed into the wall, shattering a resting soldier to pieces.
It was only then that the soldiers on the city walls realized the seriousness of the problem.
Outside the city, groups of heavy infantry appeared before their eyes.
A soldier pointed at the group of soldiers with trembling fingers, and stammered for a long time before holding back a few words: "Chu, Chu, Chu, Chu Army!" ”
