42 vs. 2

"King, do you want to take the beam?" Zhuang Ji suddenly asked such a question.

Xiong Huai was stunned, he didn't know how to answer such a stupid question as Zhuang Ji.

"Isn't this a sure thing......" Xiong Huai turned his head to look at the somewhat cute Zhuang Ji next to him.

Zhuang Ji was a little worried, and said, "But will such words anger the Wei State, which will cause the Wei State to mobilize heavy troops to encircle and annihilate our army?" ”

Xiong Huai patted Zhuang Ji on the shoulder and said, "You don't have to worry about this, Gongsun Xi's troops of Wei State are still fighting with Zhao State, and Gongsun Yan is still in Xiling, so he can't spare his energy at all." ”

"What about the local county soldiers of Wei?"

"Then don't worry, our army is elite, do you think you can achieve great things with a few thousand county soldiers from him?" Xiong Huai said noncommittally.

Zhuang Ji nodded and said, "That's true,,, but I think that if our army besieges and doesn't attack, the effect may be better." ”

"What do you mean?"

Zhuang Ji pointed to the yellow pond on the map and said, "Look at it, the king." Gongsun Xi and Zhao Yong fought here, not far from the beam, if our army besieged the Liang but did not attack, then Gongsun Xi's troops would be in a dilemma, the Liang is the national capital, he could not save it, but Zhao Yong's troops were staring at him fiercely, and he couldn't move, in this way, he would definitely be in a hurry, and the defense of the troops would be negligent, and then Zhao Jun would be given a chance. ”

"But if our army takes the Great Liang," Zhuang Ji continued, "then Gongsun Xi will definitely encourage his soldiers, as the saying goes, the mourning army will win, and then the Wei army will defeat the Zhao army with the enemy, and then come to attack our army with a great victory, and then it will be hanging." ”

In fact, what Zhuang Ji said is indeed a better situation now, and it is better to take Daliang and not besiege it, but Xiong Huai is not concerned about Gongsun Xi's army.

Because the only main force of Wei is this army now, if Xiong Huai kills this army, then Wei will be like a manor without fences, allowing people to enter and exit.

Although the state of Zhao in the north is weak now, but after the reform, the state of Zhao rises strongly, and the state of Wei is weak, the state of Zhao can pass through the state of Wei at will, and then the state of Chu will face the front of the state of Zhao.

Now that the state of Chu is already facing the attack of the two great powers of Qin and Qi, if there is another state of Zhao, then the state of Chu will not have the extra energy to attack other countries.

This is what Xiong Huai didn't want to see, so he denied Zhuang Ji's opinion, Zhuang Ji asked the reason, and Xiong Huai said a sentence - Wei's disaster is less than Zhao's.

At this time, on the battlefield of Huangchi, the Wei army had broken through the right army of the Zhao army. Approaching the Zhao army.

The 12,000 Zhao army under the command of Xu Jun quickly retreated after learning the news of the defeat of the left army, and closed the defensive line and moved closer to Zhao Yong's Chinese army.

At the same time, it defended layer by layer, slowed down the pace of the Wei army's attack, and finally successfully blocked the right army of the Wei army in five miles to the left of the Chinese army.

As soon as the offensive of the right army of the Wei army slowed down, Zhao Yong immediately freed up his forces to attack the middle army of the Wei army, forcing the forward of the Wei army back three miles.

After the right army of the Zhao army galloped into the forward battlefield of the Wei army, the battlefield situation took a sharp turn for the worse. The scales of victory gradually tilted in favor of Zhao's army.

Gongsun was happy to see that the Zhao army had suppressed his forward army, and the right army was unable to break through Xu Jun's defensive line, so he had to draw 20,000 troops from the Chinese army to the front to block the Zhao army.

The right army of the Zhao army rushed into the middle army, resulting in the right wing of the Zhao army being completely handed over to the Wei army, Gongsun Xi naturally did not let go of this opportunity, and scattered all his left army into the right army of the Zhao army, intending to open up the situation in the left army.

Zhao Jun Zhongjun.

"Newspaper - the left army of the Wei army poured out of the nest and approached the right flank of our army."

"Good!" Zhao Yong was overjoyed, "Give Le Yi an order to quickly break through the left army of the Zhao army." ”

"No!"

"Herald!"

"In!"

"China's armed forces are ready to attack!"

"No!"

Wei Army, Chinese Army.

"Report - Zhao Junzhong's army is preparing for war, intending to fight a decisive battle with our army!"

The corners of Gongsun Xi's mouth raised, and he said: "What should come is coming after all, the order, the rear army is ready to rush to the left army's position, the Chinese army will send 10,000 people to the left army to fight, and the forward will build a defense line on the spot." ”

"No!"

Gongsun Xi seemed to see the treacherous face of Zhao Yong in the army of Zhao Jun opposite, and said jokingly: "Zhao Yong, Zhao Yong, do you think I can't see your little person?" ”

"Kill!"

With a roar, many chariots suddenly appeared on the plain facing the left army of the Wei army, and the battle flag with the word "Zhao" on the chariot was fluttering in the wind.

"The Chinese army is out of battle!" Zhao Yong roared.

The shield bearers of the Zhao army in the valley scattered to the left and right, leaving a road, and the rest of the Zhao troops hidden in the valley immediately killed the forward position of the Wei army on the opposite side.

On the battlefield, the two armies of the Zhao army charged the Wei army one in front and one on the right. At the same time, a contingent of 10,000 people of the Wei army quickly broke away from the Chinese army and lined up on the left to wait for the rushing Zhao charioteers.

And the rear army of the Wei army began to run in circles towards the rear of this Zhao army, with obvious intentions, to flank this Zhao army in front and back.

However, it was difficult for the Zhao army, who was on top of the chariot, to find that the rear army of the Wei army had begun to move, and some of the ones who found it did not care.

However, Le Yi discovered this clue, and after analyzing it for a while, Le Yi came to a conclusion - the Wei army already knew that he was preparing to raid.

"Quickly order the infantry reserve to follow up and block the Wei army rushing from the right of our army!"

Le Yi was very decisive in pressing the infantry reserve to protect the rear flank of his own raiding force.

"General, you see, the left army of the Wei army has returned to help." An adjutant general pointed to the left of his army.

Le Yi looked in the direction pointed by the adjutant general, and saw a red-pressed Wei army rushing towards his own army like a tide.

"Damn," Le Yi now felt powerless, the reserves had been pressed, and he no longer had the strength to block this Wei army from outflanking his own back road.

After hesitating, Le Yi suddenly had an idea: "Order, our army quickly turns its target and attacks the left army of the Wei army!" Scatter them. Then go to the support of the Chinese army! ”

"But the king's command to us is ......"

"Nothing!" Le Yi interrupted the adjutant general and said, "If you are told to do it, you will do it, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly." Where did I get so much time to think about this and that, since the king has entrusted this army to me, I have the right to be dispatched to the battle! ”

The lieutenant general is still hesitating.

"Go!" Le Yi shouted. Frightened, the lieutenant ran to give orders.

"Report ———— the Wei Army's left army and rear army to come back to help, intending to outflank General Le Yi's troops!"

"What?" Zhao Yong frowned. If this is the case,,,, his surprise attack plan must have been known to the Wei army in advance......

Zhao Yong's mind is very chaotic now, and this sudden variable makes him at a loss.

"What the hell should I do?" Zhao Yong muttered......
