Chapter 34
After Zhao Kuo himself came to Shangdang, he spent a few days visiting several checkpoints of Zhao Jun in Shangdang, and also met with several current Zhao army generals separately and privately to understand the current deployment of Zhao Jun. He was extremely dissatisfied with the defensive deployment strategy adopted by the veteran Lian Po in the Shangdang area.
Lian Po's defensive strategy is obviously not the strategic deployment he wants.
This kind of strategic deployment of defense can neither nor conform to the expectations of King Zhao for himself to lead the Zhao army and quickly defeat the Qin army. Zhao Kuo said that he must also change this "turtle-style" defense strategy. After two more days of thinking, Zhao Kuo finally made up his mind and had his own plan in his heart.
Zhao Kuo came to Shangdang with the order of King Zhao this time and served as the commander of the army of Shangdang Zhao. It is necessary to fulfill the promise he made to Zhao Wangdan when he came to Shangdang in Handan, that is, to defeat the Qin army as soon as possible and recover the Shangdang city and defense line occupied by the Qin army.
On July 26, on the tenth day of Zhao Kuo's arrival in the party, many generals of the Zhao army were summoned at the ancient gate of the Bailishi Great Wall to redeploy the latest war plan against the Qin army.
This is the first military meeting held by the new commander Zhao Kuo, and the generals of the Zhao army did not dare to slack off, and came to the conference hall early to wait for the arrival of Hou Zhao Kuo. Changing generals in battle has been a taboo for soldiers since ancient times. All the generals who came to the conference hall also talked about it, and the whole hall was noisy.
The three of them, Tie Leopard, Wang Rong, and Su Shot, got together and were also discussing the change of command of Zhao Jun.
Wang Rong was two years older than himself, and said: "General Leopard, you have been under the account of Zhao Hao, the former horse service monarch, and you have also worked with the current coach Zhao Kuo, how much do you know about the current coach Zhao Kuo?" ”
The leopard shook his head and said to Wang Rong and Su Jie: "When I was working under General Zhao Hao's account, General Zhao Kuo was just starting out at that time, and he had been in charge of logistics such as military resources for the army. To be honest, I didn't have much contact with him, and I didn't know much about him. ”
Su Jian was beside him at this time, and whispered to the two of them: "According to the lieutenant of the middle tent, when General Lian Po left, he persuaded General Zhao Kuo to continue to adopt a defensive strategy, but it seems that General Zhao Kuo did not promise, but refuted General Lian Po. For this, General Lian Po was very unhappy. ”
When the two of them heard this, like Su Jie, they couldn't help but feel a little worried in their hearts.
After Zhao Kuo walked into the conference hall from the back hall, the hall suddenly fell silent. Shangdang County Shoufeng Ting, as well as Wang Rong, Tie Leopard, Su Shot and many other generals of the Zhao Army, all bowed to Zhao Kuo with their fists and said, "Pay homage to the general." ”
Sitting on the main seat where the veteran Lian Po had sit, looking at the many Zhao generals under the hall, Zhao Kuo, who is now twenty-eight years old, his face flushed, a little intoxicated for a while, and a little emotional.
At this age, he finally reached the high position that his father Zhao Hao once had. And the power is even greater than the power that his father Zhao Hao had at that time.
Looking at the many generals of the Zhao Army in the hall, Zhao Kuo suppressed the excitement in his heart and slowly said to the generals: "Generals, no courtesy. ”
"Thank you, General." The generals replied in unison.
Zhao Kuo nodded and said to the generals: "Generals, this general is ordered by the king to command my party army. This time, I hope that the generals can help each other and work together to defeat the Qin army and expel it from the Shangdang area. In this way, the king will not be dishonored. ”
The generals replied in unison: "No." ”
Zhao Kuo was very satisfied when he saw that everyone was going to respond. The generals immediately ordered: "The generals listen to the order, from now on, our army will move the shogunate commander's tent to Hanwang Mountain in the north to expand the vision of Danshui." Waiting for the opportunity to cross the Danshui to the west, raid the Qin army, and find out. ”
When the generals heard this, they were shocked, this is going to change defense to attack!
After the death of Zhao Jia, the deputy general of the Zhao army appointed by Zhao Wang Dan, Lian Po wrote to the king of Zhao, and General Pi was appointed as the deputy general of the Shangdang Zhao army.
As soon as the leopard heard that the new commander Zhao Kuo had just arrived, and before he knew the combat strength of the Qin army, he was going to order the Zhao army to raid the Qin army, and he was in a hurry, and hurriedly stood up and said to Zhao Kuo: "May I ask General Zhao Kuo, what kind of tactics does our army adopt?" Raid the Qin army. ”
Zhao Kuo saw that the leopard was asking like this, it was not surprising, wasn't this what he expected! Said to the leopard: "General the leopard, I want to send 100,000 troops to take the lead, raid the Qin army, and find out its strength and deployment. ”
The generals of the Bound Leopard and Zhao were stunned, do the strength of this Qin army still have to be tested? It is clear that the main force of the Qin army west of the Danshui River is 400,000, and the deployment has already been clearly understood by the Zhao army!
Zhao Kuo saw that all the generals in the hall were stunned, thinking that all the generals admired his plan, and said to the generals with a smile: "Generals, General Lian Po has been sticking to the party for three years, and the Qin army has repeatedly called for war, wanting to fight a decisive battle with my Zhao army, but General Lian Po has not gone to war. Now our army is attacking the Qin army, either it will not attack, or the attack will be like a surging flood, pouring down, unstoppable. ”
"In this way, the Qin army will be in chaos and will inevitably be defeated. And our army occupies the defense line of the Danshui River, which can be attacked and defended. This can be described as the art of war: the army can advance or retreat, and it is invincible. The Qin army did not expect that our army would turn from defense to attack, which is exactly the art of war: surprise, unpreparedness, and impermanence. In this way, our army will surely win a great victory. ”
The generals of the Zhao army looked at each other and were depressed. This new commander has a sentence on the left and a sentence on the right, but he does not specifically explain how to attack. It looks unreliable!
General Wang Rong stood up and said to Zhao Kuo: "General, our army is waiting for an opportunity to cross west, what is a good opportunity?" ”
Seeing this, Zhao Kuo frowned slightly, and said to Wang Rong: "General Wang Rong, as a general, don't you even understand this?" Well, General Ben will explain it to you! The so-called surprise attack, the art of war: it is better to attack the enemy army when it is taken by surprise. General Wang, do you understand? ”
Wang Rong is really stupid, I understand what a fart! I also know that it is better to attack the enemy by surprise. But when and how to do it, isn't that what you have to explain as a manager?
General Su Jie was a straight man, and stood up and said to Zhao Kuo: "General Zhao Kuo, can you be specific about the general's overall deployment of the Qin army's attack?" Let's discuss it together, and we don't understand what you say! ”
Zhao Kuo looked at it, and another "thorn" popped out. He said to Su Shu and the generals: "This general has no specific way to fight against the Qin army. Just like the art of war, eight words: head-to-head, improvisation. ”
When the generals of the Zhao army heard this, they were all drunk. Damn! This new coach is too far away from General Lian Po, and he is really unreliable! We all know what you say, but you tell us how to do it!
When Su Jian heard this, he said to Zhao Kuo again: "General Zhao Kuo, is the improvisation you said a little too casual?" A certain general thinks that a more appropriate strategy should be set for the way of the future! ”
When Zhao Kuo heard this, he became a little angry again, and said to Su Jie: "General Su Jie, what do you mean by what you said is more appropriate?" Tell General Ben about it. ”
Seeing this, Su Kuo knew that Zhao Kuo was very dissatisfied with himself, so he also let go, and said to Zhao Kuo: "Since the general asked a certain general to speak, a certain general will tell me my opinion." For example, in the head-to-head confrontation that the general just talked about, the general should tell us that if we can break the enemy, what should our army do? If we can't break the enemy, what will happen to our army? ”
"The so-called head-to-head confrontation, how many times to attack the enemy? How many troops are divided each time? In addition, the general should also tell the generals that since they are in a head-to-head confrontation, what are the advantages and disadvantages of the enemy and us? What is the priority of our army's victory? These are generals, you have to make specific arrangements! ”
Zhao Kuo heard Su Jie's questioning, and laughed and said: "What the general said is extremely true, this general wants to ask you here, you have been fighting against the Qin army in Shangdang for three years, can you find out the disadvantages of the Qin army?" And what good strategy did they come up with to retreat from the enemy? ”
When the deputy general Tie Leopard heard this, he was very unhappy, you are overturning a boatload of people with one pole!
The leopard clenched his fists and bowed, and said to Zhao Kuo: "General, General Lian Po and a certain general and others, after three years, they have not been able to break the enemy. Since the confrontation with the Qin army, it has been half the victory and the defeat, and the army has never been defeated! ”
General Wang Rong was beside him, and also questioned Zhao Kuo: "General, the battle of the party is related to the national fortune of my Zhao country. As soon as you came to the party, you didn't know the enemy's situation, so you arranged for our army to rush into battle and raid the Qin army. So, can Ann win? ”
The two lieutenant generals, Tie Leopard and General Pi Su Jie, also stepped forward, hugged their fists and bowed to Zhao Kuo and said: "General, our army must not rashly attack the Qin army, please think twice!" ”
When all the generals in the hall heard this, except for the generals brought by Zhao Kuo, they all nodded yes, and they all bowed to Zhao Kuo with their fists and said, "Please think twice, general." ”
In the conference hall, there was a sudden noise.
Seeing this, Zhao Kuo was furious, slapped the handsome table in front of him, and said loudly: "You and the three of you are presumptuous, you will know when you join the party in the future, as the deputy general and general of General Lian Po, you will not be used." ”
Speaking of this, he gritted his teeth and said to the generals: "The generals will listen to the order, from now on, remove the deputy general of the leopard, remove Wang Rong and Su Jie from the post of generals, and the three of you can go back to Handan from today and surrender your life to the court." From now on, his subordinates will be led by the lieutenants and generals I have brought with me. ”
Bound leopard, Wang Rong and Su Jie turned red and looked at each other. The deputy general tied the leopard, hugged his fists and bowed to Zhao Kuo and said: "General, since this is the case, a certain general and the other three will follow your order, and you can go back to Handan to surrender to the court and say goodbye." ”
After that, he said to Wang Rong and Su Jie: "Since General Zhao Kuo doesn't need us anymore, brothers, let's go back to Handan and wait for the good news that General Zhao Kuo defeated the Qin army!" ”
Seeing the leopard and the other three walking out of the council hall angrily, the other Zhao army generals were all dumbfounded.
The deputy general Tie Leopard and the other three, as old men who have followed the veteran Lian Po for many years, especially in the past three years in the party, have attacked the Qin army many times, and also have a high prestige in the Zhao army. Such three generals with remarkable military achievements disagreed with Zhao Kuo, and they were dismissed, dismissed, and returned home by Zhao Kuo, and the hearts of the generals also felt extremely desolate and hesitant.
Shangdang County guarded Feng Ting, stood under the hall, and did not speak for a long time. Seeing Zhao Kuo doing this, he couldn't help but cast a shadow in his heart, and lamented in his heart: "This new coach Zhao Kuo doesn't seem to have been in many battles. How could King Zhao arrange such a person to come to the party and command the army! If he does this, Zhao Jun is in danger! The party is in danger! How is this good? ”
I wanted to step forward to dissuade him, but when I saw the hideous expression on Zhao Kuo's face, I knew that it had no effect. He sighed, stood aside, and closed his eyes.
After the three leopards left, Zhao Kuo slapped the handsome table again and shouted to the generals: "The generals listen to the order, and after they go down, they can prepare for the attack of the army according to the instructions of the general." If there is any further disobedience to the general's order, it will be dealt with in accordance with military law and severely punished. ”
When the generals heard this, they were helpless, and they all clasped their fists together and bowed down and said, "No." ”
What Zhao Kuo didn't know was that on the night he held a military meeting, a van quietly drove into the camp of the Qin army. Known as "human slaughter" by the world, the general of the Qin State and Wu Anjun Bai Qi secretly came to Shangdang and served as the commander of the Shangdang Qin army.
In the twelfth year of King Wucheng (260 BC), in July, Qin and Zhao coincidentally changed their commanders on the Shangdang front.
Qin Guo was replaced by the general Bai Qi, and Zhao Guo was replaced by Zhao Kuo, the son of the late famous general Zhao Hao, and the life-and-death duel between Qin and Zhao was about to start in Shangdang.
