Chapter 172: Wu Anjun's idea is very beautiful, but the script is a little wrong (second update)
"The King's Messenger?" Bai Qi was stunned for a moment, then glanced at the generals in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "My order, you must know it, and you must all go back to prepare, remember not to show the wind!"
The most important thing in such a thing as an ambush is undoubtedly secrecy, and if the secrecy work is not done well so that the enemy will be aware of it, the ambush will naturally not be able to continue.
This is the reason why only so many of the thousands of middle and high-level generals in the Qin army were summoned by Bai Qi.
The reason why these generals were informed of the plan so many days in advance was mainly to give them enough time to secretly transfer their troops out of the Changping battlefield and to the Nanshangdang Basin.
You must know that Daliang Mountain, the highest point of the Changping front, is now in the hands of the Zhao army, and the movements of the Qin army are easy to be detected by the Zhao army.
In addition, this time, Bai Qi had to mobilize a full 170,000 troops, which was a very large scale.
Considering the current midwinter weather, if you start to mobilize before the war, then it is inevitable that you will be discovered by the condescending Zhao army.
That's why Bai Qi informed his subordinates of this plan in advance so early, in order to let them take advantage of this time to break the troops into pieces and slowly transfer the troops out without attracting the attention of Zhao Jun.
You must know that although Bai Qi has 600,000 troops, not all of these 600,000 are elite troops that can fight, and those who can fight are actually only 200,000 or 300,000.
Due to the peace negotiations, Bai Qi has sent nearly 100,000 elite Qin troops to the Beishang Party Basin, and the 170,000 troops that are about to be sent out now are basically all the troops that Bai Qi can fight.
When the 170,000 troops left the camp, although Bai Qi's subordinates still had more than 200,000 soldiers and horses, they were basically militia units composed of some people, and their combat effectiveness was very low, and they belonged to the scum troops.
Under such circumstances, if Zhao Jun was aware of this fact and launched a fierce attack, it was really hard to say whether Bai Qi could rely on the only scumbag troops under his hands to hold it.
Once the main battlefield of the Qin army Changping is broken through, then the Qin army will be immediately defeated, and it will be useless to go south to the party basin and the north to the party basin.
So it's actually a very risky decision.
The main force of the 170,000 Qin army had to quietly leave the main battlefield of Changping to set up an ambush in the south without the Zhao army noticing, and then succeed in the ambush and win without the Wei and Han coalition forces noticing, and then rush back to the main battlefield of Changping even after the victory.
No matter how you look at it, this is a very tightrope walker, and there is no room for even the slightest mistake.
But Bai Qi is very confident in this plan.
Because it's a very personal plan.
Bai Qi himself, hasn't he always been famous for "surprising and endless"?
Who would dare to take the initiative to attack when the 150,000 Qin army was facing the 240,000 Han and Wei coalition forces?
Bai Qi dared, and he won, and the name of this battle is the Battle of Yique.
Who would dare to go deep into Chu alone while leading 80,000 Qin troops, and go straight to Yingdu and Yandu, which were heavily guarded?
Bai Qi dared, and he flooded Yandu in one battle, conquered Yingdu in another battle, and went down to Yiling in three battles, beheaded 300,000 heads of Chu State with 80,000 people, and burned the temple of Chu State and the tomb of the first king, which made the Chu people frightened and the world shook.
Who would dare to give an order to a soldier to plunge directly into a frenzied attack on the enemy after a hasty march of several days and nights, regardless of the fact that his physical strength had reached its limit?
Bai Qi dared, in this battle called the Battle of Huayang, Bai Qi attacked and beheaded 100,000 Wei troops and 20,000 Zhao troops in a surprise attack, directly destroying all the ambitions of Wei Wangyu.
In history, who directly annihilated the entire 400,000 Zhao army in Changping with great courage? It's also still white.
This battle, both before and after, is considered too risky.
But Bai Qi just did it, and it all succeeded.
Success once or twice may be accidental, but if you succeed every time, it obviously has nothing to do with chance.
So this time, Bai Qi still adopted an extremely risky style of play.
Like all previous battles, Bai Qi had no doubts about his victory this time and had absolute confidence.
As long as these generals at hand carry out Bai Qi's plan well, Bai Qi will definitely be able to bring another victory to the Great Qin Empire!
Bai Qi was in such a mood that he watched his cadre leave the account.
Then Bai Qi commanded outside the tent, "Let the messenger come in."
Judging from the tone, Bai Qi obviously lacked respect for this so-called envoy of the Great King.
But this is also normal, to be honest, with Bai Qi's current status and prestige in the Qin State, except for Qin Wangji and Zhao Zhu, the future King of Qin, Bai Qi does not need to respect anyone at all.
The "anyone" mentioned here is, of course, also the current Qin State Xiangbang Fan Sui.
As for the so-called envoy of the king who is about to appear, Bai Qi basically has to meet every few days.
Normally, these envoys would put on a groveling appearance after seeing Bai Qi, and then show a flattering smile and say a few words to Bai Qi, and then take out Qin Wangji's letter and hand it to Bai Qi, and then consciously leave Bai Qi's sight.
In Bai Qi's opinion, today's so-called envoy of the king is similar to those in the past.
But Bai Qi will soon know that he was wrong.
Because of the messenger who has arrived today, his position is quite unusual.
Several people walked into the handsome tent and appeared in front of Bai Qi.
"Wang Ji?" Bai Qi frowned, and said to the comer: "Why are you here?"
The envoy who arrived today is named Wang Ji, and he has a very prominent identity - the county guard of Hedong County of Qin State.
A dignified county guard, why did he come to be a messenger?
Wang Ji laughed and said to Bai Qi: "Wu Anjun, are you quite surprised by my appearance?"
Bai Qi snorted, his face sank, and said, "If you have something, just say it!"
Obviously, Bai Qi didn't like this guy named Wang Ji very much.
The reason is also very simple, this Wang Ji is the benefactor of today's Qin Xiang Fan Sui.
And the reason why Wang Ji was able to become the county guard of Hedong County was also because of Fan Sui's vigorous protection after becoming the prime minister of Qin.
Bai Qi and Fan Sui were originally political enemies, so they naturally didn't like Wang Ji of Fan Sui's faction.
In addition, there was another thing that surprised Bai Qi, that is, there were actually two people by Wang Ji's side, namely Wang Ji, the deputy general of the Qin army, and Zheng Anping, the lieutenant of the school.
Why did these two guys appear next to Wang Ji?
For some reason, Bai Qi suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
The next moment, this hunch was confirmed.
I saw Wang Ji snorting at the sky, and then said to Bai Qi with an extremely arrogant expression: "Wu Anjun, the king has an order, order you to hand over the military power immediately and return to Xianyang!"
