Pu Shui.

After Cheng Lingjun left the capital Daliang with 50,000 Wei troops, he hurried to the east, not wanting to learn that the Qi State was besieging Fan County as soon as he arrived in Pushui.

On the opposite side, the Qi army was 150,000, and he only had 50,000, Cheng Lingjun made a quick decision, and immediately stopped on the west side of Pushui, preparing to use Pushui as a ditch to confront the Qi army in order to wait for reinforcements.

Fortunately, when the main force of Wei fought against Qi a few months ago, a large number of fortifications had been built on the west bank of Pushui, and they only needed to use them.

At the moment, Chenglingjun took Chengyang City on the west bank of Pushui as a base, while gathering and deploying defenses, while transferring back to the Wei army in the eastern counties, and then asked for help from Daliang again.

Under the siege of the Qi army, Fan County struggled for five days before it was broken by the Qi army.

After breaking through Fan County, the chief general of the Qi army, Shengzi, received the news that Wei had transferred all the troops back to the west bank of Pushui.

"That is to say, now the counties east of Pushui in Wei are all empty cities! Hmph, you want to block me in Pushui again? ”

"Order, rest for two days, and after two days, the troops will be sent to Pushui."

Two days later, 100,000 Qi troops gathered on the east bank of Pushui and confronted 70,000 Wei troops across the river.

After Shengzi came to Pushui to check the defense of the Wei army, he laughed and said: "The reason why Wei was able to stop this general last time was because the main force of Wei was here, and now Wei only has 50,000 troops plus 20,000 remnants, do you want to stop me." ”

"Even if he does, he will become a Lingjun, and he doesn't have such skills."

Tian Xie, the deputy general of Shengzi, asked: "General, do you want to attack Wei now?" ”

Tian Xie looked at the other side: "Now that there are few Wei soldiers, you can give it a try." ”

Shengzi shook his head and said: "You don't have to try, now that the main force of Wei is fighting fiercely with the Qin army in the river, these Wei troops on the other side are far from my opponents, and I ordered the army to rest and wait for reinforcements." ”

Tian Xie was surprised: "General, now that there are few Wei soldiers and people's hearts are fluctuating, we don't have to wait for reinforcements, we can cross the river tomorrow and break Wei." ”

Shengzi smiled: "What I am waiting for is not the reinforcements of our Qi State, but the reinforcements of the Wei State. ”

"Wei reinforcements ???"

Mid-December.

Cheng Lingjun stood in the cold wind and looked at the east.

What is colder than this cold weather is the heart.

The Qi army has been in Pushui for seven days, but they have seen the Qi army attack, even if it is a tentative attack.

This is very abnormal, there must be a conspiracy in it, but Cheng Lingjun can't figure out what Qi Jun thinks.

At first, Cheng Lingjun thought that the Qi army was waiting for reinforcements, but after the reinforcements from the Qi State Gaotang arrived three days ago, the Qi State still did not attack, which made him hesitate.

Now that the Qi army has gathered 170,000 troops, and there are only 80,000 in his own hands, not even half of the Qi army, why didn't the Qi army attack.

"General, reinforcements from Pumi and Ludu counties have arrived in Chengyang." Cheng Lingjun's deputy general Cao Wu walked quickly.

"How many people came?" Cheng Lingjun hurriedly asked.

"General Hui, there are a total of 9,000 strong men in the two counties."

Cheng Lingjun breathed a sigh of relief.

Now he has an army of 90,000 in his hands, which is enough to hold out for a while.

"Is there any news from other counties?"

"General, the lieutenant of Zhuozao County has come to report, and the two thousand reinforcements from Zhuozao County will arrive in two days."

Cheng Lingjun frowned: "Boiled jujube is also a big county in the hinterland of my Wei State, why are there only two thousand reinforcements?" ”

"This..." Deputy General Cao Wu hesitated and said: "General, the county lieutenant of Zhuo Zao said that the movements of the Song State are unknown now, and he, as the lieutenant of Zhuo Zao County, needs to guard against the sneak attack of the Song State, so he left three thousand strong men." ”

"Fart!" Cheng Lingjun said angrily: "Guarding against the Song Kingdom, this is something that the general and the king of Xiangguo need to consider, when does he need a small county lieutenant to have such a big heart?" ”

"This ······"

Cheng Lingjun took out a general order from his body and said: "Send a school captain to cook jujubes, and bring all the strong men from Jujube County." ”

Cao Wu took the token: "It's the general." ”

"Do you know where the reinforcements from Chu and Han have gone?"

"General Hui, the reinforcements of the Chu State only arrived in Chendi not long ago, and the 100,000 Chu troops should have joined the Han army by now and are rushing towards Pushui."

Cheng Lingjun's brows furrowed: "Okay, calculate the time, the Chu and Han reinforcements will be able to reach Pushui in about half a month, and in ten and a half days, will the Qi army be able to break through the Pushui defense line." ”

"Gongsun Xi and the Qi army have been attacking and defending Pushui for several months before, even if I can't compare to Gongsun Xi, but I don't have to worry about it for ten days and a half months."

At this time, the camp is in unison.

Shengzi and Gao Tang Doctor Tian Yi are looking at a map of the west bank of Pushui.

"General, the spies just came to report that the county soldiers from the two counties of Wei and Milu have rushed to Chengyang."

Hearing Tian Xie's report, Shengzi left the map with his eyes, raised his head, and looked at Tian Xie: "If Ben General is not mistaken, plus Juyang Dou County and other counties before, there are already seven counties in Wei State where reinforcements have come." ”

Tian Xie nodded: "What the general said is true. ”

"Well, even if the reinforcements from other counties haven't arrived yet, they're already on their way."

As he spoke, Shengzi sneered: "Okay, now the time has come, cross the river tomorrow to attack Wei." ”

Tian Xie glanced at Shengzi puzzled: "General, Dr. Jimo's 100,000 reinforcements will arrive in Pushui in two days, don't we wait for Dr. Jimo?" ”

Shengzi shook his head and said: "Don't wait, the general said that I am waiting for Wei reinforcements, and now that Wei reinforcements have arrived, then the time to attack the Wei army will naturally come." ”

Then, Shengzi said solemnly: "Now there are more than 90,000 troops in the hands of Chenglingjun of Wei State, but there are only 50,000 elites among them, and most of them are in the middle army of the Wei army. Of the remaining 40,000, 20,000 were the remnants of the defeated army in the eastern part of Pushui, and the remaining 20,000 to 30,000 were just rabble people who had just gathered from various counties. ”

"This will be regarded as Lingjun's defense, and the main force of defense is the elite brought from Daliang, mixed with county soldiers and a small number of remnants, and another 10,000 remnants are defending in Chengyang City."

As he spoke, Shengzi looked at Tian Yidao and said: "So the general's plan is to use the elite of the doctor in Gaotang to attack the defense area where the county soldiers are located, and at all costs, to storm the Wei army formation." ”

Hearing this, Tian Yi arched his hand and said, "The last general will obey the order." ”

Then Shengzi said to Tian Xie: "The Japanese general of the Ming Dynasty will personally lead the elite of Pinglu and Linzi to attack the main formation of the Wei army, and you, General Tian, will be able to hand over all the skilled fighters sent by the king to you, and you will lead them to attack the army formation of Wei with remnants." ”

Tian Xie arched his hand and said: "The last general will obey the general's orders. ”

Shengzi nodded and said: "Okay, tell those skilled fighters that as long as they can defeat the remnants of Wei tomorrow, in addition to the bounty of eight taels per person, the first merit of this battle will also be counted as theirs, and after going back, the king will have another reward." ”

"It's the general."

Then, Shengzi said: "Tomorrow's battle is very important, it is the decisive battle between our Qi State and Wei State, there is no room for loss, and the two of you have done your best." ”

"A decisive battle?" The Athletics Association was puzzled.

"Not bad." Shengzi pointed to the map and said: "Two of you, please see, as long as the Wei army on the other side is broken, then the Wei counties west of Pushui will be empty cities." At that time, Dr. Gao Tang led his troops to the west along Pushui and attacked the counties along the way, and General Tian took his headquarters to the north of Jishui in the south of Pushui, and attacked the counties along the way to the west, and he would definitely be able to sweep west of Pushui. ”

"At that time, Ben will lead the main force to attack Jiyang City, which is not far to the east of Daliang, and I think that the troops who come to Jiyang City should also be transferred by Wei State. As long as Ben will appear under the city of Jiyang, then the king of Wei may sue for peace. ”

As he spoke, he said with a smile: "Even if King Wei is still carrying it to the end, as long as he hears the news that my Qi army is sweeping the western part of Pushui, can he still hold on?" ”

"After the doctor and the general broke through the counties, don't hesitate to rush to Jiyang day and night, and they will wait for the arrival of the two generals in Jiyang City."

Gao Tang doctor Tian Yi and general Tian Xie glanced at each other, and they all understood the meaning of tomorrow's battle, no matter what it takes, tomorrow will be a decisive battle.
