Chapter 52 Wei Si Linhexi
Su Qin ran wildly all the way to the outside of the city gate, and happened to meet Wei Xianggong Sun Yan, Zhai Zhang, Gongsun Xi and others who were about to enter the city.
Su Qin hurriedly blocked the road of the three and said:
"Gongsun Xiangguo, you can't enter, the Qin army inside is cheating!"
Gongsun Xi glanced at this Su Qin:
"What are you doing here with a little of nonsense? While going to ...... Go aside! ”
After speaking, he walked over and pushed Su Qin away.
As a result, Su Qin ran back again, stood directly in front of Gongsun Yan, and pointed to himself and said:
"Gongsun Xiangguo, have you forgotten me? I'm Mr. Su Dai's nephew, Su Qin, we met in Daliang! ”
Gongsun was stunned for a moment, and then took a closer look at the little pawn in front of him, who seemed to be indeed a little familiar, so he stopped Gongsun Xi, who wanted to come and push Su Qin away again, and asked Su Qin:
"You said that you are Su Qin, the nephew of Dr. Su Dai, do you have a certificate?"
Su Qin hesitated, and immediately took out a palace card from his arms and handed it to Gongsun Yan:
"Gongsun Xiangbang, look, this is the Wei Palace card given to me by the king, with this brand, my Su Qin is unhindered in the Wei Palace!"
After Gongsun Yan took it in his hand and identified it, he made sure that it was not fake, so he looked at Su Qin again and nodded:
"It seems that you are indeed Mr. Su Dai's nephew Su Qin, but now is the time for Benxiang to enter the city to receive the entire Hexi land, Su Qin, you just follow me!"
Su Qin saw that Gongsun Yan didn't believe in himself and insisted on entering the city, so he still didn't give way:
"Gongsun Xiangguo, please listen to my Su Qin's words, I did see countless people in the city just now, all of whom are dressed as Qin Jun, if you enter the city now, there will definitely be danger!"
Gongsun Yan smiled lightly and pointed in the direction of the city:
"Little Brother Su Qin, you said that the people in this city are dressed up by the Qin army? Then can't the soldiers of our Wei army enter the city to receive the prisoners? You are too worried, you follow behind the prime minister, learn how to receive this great Licheng and the entire land west of the river! ”
Then he pushed Su Qin away and walked towards the city gate.
At this time, suddenly Gongsun Yan and others were about to enter the city, and suddenly there was a burst of shouting and killing inside, Gongsun Yan hurriedly retreated first, and immediately the city gate was closed again, and all that came from it was the screams of the Wei army's soldiers entering the city.
It turned out that the Qin army originally planned to pretend to be the surrendered people, and designed to lure Gongsun Yan and other Wei army generals into the city, and then capture him, which messed up the morale of the Wei army, but when the Qin army found that their news might have leaked, they began to impatiently order people to close the city gate and clean up the Wei army that had entered the city.
Su Qin rushed to the city gate a little impatiently at this time, wanting to buckle the door and go in to save Zilian, but the door had been locked by the Qin army inside, and the city tower began to be controlled by the Qin army again.
Seeing this, Gongsun Yan hurriedly ordered someone to forcibly take Su Qin back to his tent, and then asked:
"Su Qin, what's going on?"
Su Qin secretly left the King of Wei and came to Hexi, and told Gongsun Yan about what happened to Zilian and Tian Wen in Dali City.
After Gongsun Yan heard this, he comforted Su Qin:
"Ji Zi, you don't have to worry, if Miss Zilian and Na Tian Wen were not reckless to resist, the Qin army should just capture them, and they wouldn't have killed them so quickly, I would find a way to save them!"
Just then, suddenly a soldier hurried in and reported:
"Participating in Lord Xiangbang, our army is twenty kilometers west of Luoshui, and we found that nearly 200,000 Qin troops are coming to support this side of Dalicheng!"
Gongsun Yan was taken aback, and immediately asked again:
"Then have you found out who the commander of the Qin army is?"
The soldier replied:
"Look at the flag, the main general seems to be sick!"
At this time, Gongsun Xi next to him hurriedly came over and said to Gongsun Yan:
"Lord Xiangbang, why don't I send troops to stop the disease now, delay the time, so that you can capture this Dali City as soon as possible!"
Zhai Zhang came over and dissuaded Gongsun Yan:
"Lord Xiangbang, although we now have nearly 300,000 troops in our army, there are only 70,000 elite Wei soldiers, 100,000 Wei Mang's soldiers, and the others are all soldiers with average combat effectiveness, and the grain and grass carried by our soldiers are only seven days, if we fight the Qin army head-on, I'm afraid the chances of victory are not great!"
Gongsun Yan hesitated, and he couldn't pay attention for a while, so he kept wandering around the tent.
At this time, Su Qin next to him said:
"Although I, Su Qin, have never been on the battlefield, but I know the truth that cowardly soldiers will be defeated, if we withdraw now, the Qin army will be like the five countries attacking Qin two years ago, but suffered from the Qin army's counterattack, so we can't withdraw at this time!"
Gongsun Yan stopped and looked at Su Qin:
"You mean that the road to withdraw our troops is broken now?"
Su Qin nodded:
"Yes, the withdrawal of the army now is to give the Qin army a chance to pursue and counterattack us, and then I am afraid that the land of Hexi and Shangjun that we just occupied will be returned to Qin again!"
Gongsun Yan asked Su Qin:
"Then if we don't withdraw, will we fight hard with the Qin army here? But with the strength of our Wei army now, it is not enough to fight with the Qin army with all its might, and the rear of the Qin army is less than two days' journey away, and the supplies of our Wei army may not be able to be transported without a week, if the Qin State increases its troops again, our Wei army has no chance of winning! ”
Su Qin replied:
"But in any case, our Wei army can't be withdrawn at this time, I think Lord Xiangbang, you should stabilize the army's heart first, and then report to the king the current Hexi battle report, see how the king decides!"
Gongsun Yan is still anxious like an ant on a hot pot:
"But now if I go to report to the king, I'm afraid the time to withdraw the troops has already been delayed!"
Just when several generals were at a loss for a moment, suddenly a soldier ran in again and said to Gongsun Yan:
"Participate in Lord Xiangbang, there is news from the rear, saying that the king is now on the way to and from Hexi!"
As soon as Gongsun Yan heard the news, he was very excited and walked over and pulled up the soldier:
"You said that the king came to Hexi, is it true?"
The soldier nodded:
"Yes, Lord Xiangbang!"
Gongsun Yan hurriedly asked again:
"Did the king bring reinforcements and grain and grass?"
The soldier shook his head:
"It seems that I heard that the king only brought Dr. Chen Zhen and a few hundred relatives with him this time, and I didn't hear that there were reinforcements and grain and grass!"
Gongsun Yan said to the soldier:
"Okay, that picture knows, you go down!"
Then he said to Gongsun Xi:
"Gongsun Xi, you now hurry up and order all your Wei soldiers to stop the siege and withdraw to organize a defense on the spot, so as to prepare for the Qin army to counterattack!"
Zhai Zhang saw that Gongsun Yan had not given him an order for a long time, so he took the initiative to come over and ask:
"Lord Xiangbang, what are you going to let the veteran do with me?"
Gongsun Yan replied to Zhai Zhang:
"General Zhai Zhang, let your troops rest for the time being, recuperate well, and when the king comes, just follow his arrangement!"
Wei Si's car at this time had already arrived five miles away from Wei Ying, and Wei Si had naturally received the battle situation ahead, so he was not in a hurry, but got out of the car and pulled Chen Zhen to sit on an empty high ground nearby.
At this time, Chen Zhen saw King Wei sitting next to him for a long time and did not speak, but quietly looked at the direction of Da Licheng in the distance, so he asked puzzledly:
"King, why don't you hurry to the front-line barracks and look in a daze over there?"
Wei Si turned his head and glanced at Chen Zhen next to him:
"Doctor Chen, do you think that even if the widow rushes to the barracks in a hurry now, what use can it be? And I'm afraid what Lord Xiangbang needs most is the widow to give him food, grass and reinforcements, right? ”
Chen Zhen looked at King Wei and couldn't help but sigh:
"Yes, after all, the king and your ministers are on this trip, but you have neither brought grain and grass, nor reinforcements!"
Wei Si pointed in the direction of Da Licheng:
"Doctor Chen, you see, this Da Licheng is near Luoshui in the south, and Jing Mountain is in the south, and not far from the west is the former Hexi wall of our Wei State, and this time the Qin army must have crossed the west wall of the river to support Da Licheng!"
Chen Zhen nodded:
"The minister has also seen the Hexi map, and it is true!"
Wei Si pointed to the west again:
"Doctor Chen, you are looking over there, this Luoshui comes from the northwest and enters the river at Jingshan, and the Qin army wants to send troops to support Dali again, do you want to cross this Luoshui?"
Chen Zhen replied:
"Yes, if the Qin army does not cross Luoshui, it will not be able to support Dali City!"
Wei Si showed a smile on his face:
"Doctor Chen, what do you think our Wei army would do if it occupied Luoshui and the border wall section, and then set up an ambush where the Qin army must pass?"
Chen Zhen hurriedly said:
"King, your plan is feasible, but it's a bit difficult!"
Wei Si asked:
"How difficult will it be?"
Chen Zhen replied:
"First, between the west wall of the river and Luoshui, the Qin army will inevitably have soldiers and horses to guard it, second, now that Dali has reached the place you mentioned, I am afraid that all of them have been under the control of the Qin army, if our army wants to recapture it, I am afraid it will be too difficult, third, now our army outside Dali City, and the Qin army is not sure of victory in a frontal battle, and the main general of the Qin army is still a scheming man."
After listening to Chen Zhen's words, Wei Si smiled lightly:
"Then Doctor Chen thinks that our Gongsun Xiangbang is not as sick as that one?"
Chen Zhen hurriedly shook his head:
"Of course not, our Xiangbang Lord is the best among the princes, how can it be inferior to that disease, the minister just thinks that this disease is too cunning, and it is the kind of completely unpredictable, after all, the minister has known him in the Qin State before!"
Wei Si patted Chen Zhen on the shoulder:
"Doctor Chen, don't grow your popularity and destroy your prestige when the two armies are in a critical confrontation, but now the widow suddenly has the certainty of victory!"
Chen Zhen looked at King Wei with some puzzlement:
"Why, my king, do you have the certainty of victory?"
Wei Si pointed to the southeast:
"Doctor Chen, have you forgotten that King Han promised the widow before that he would send troops to assist our Wei State in attacking Qin?"
Chen Zhen said:
"But South Korea has never sent troops so far, I'm afraid that since the last time the country invaded Qin, it has been afraid of Qin like a tiger, right?"
