Chapter 65: Killing Two Birds with One Stone

The Zhao army commanded by Zhao Kuo did not launch a fierce siege as soon as Wang Yi expected, he just chose to camp outside the attack range of the Qin army's crossbowmen, and always maintained the threat to the Light Wolf City.

Such a stable tactic made Wang Yi a little helpless, and he had sent Qin army scouts countless times to find out the layout of the surrounding Zhao army.

How could Zhao Kuo let Wang Di's intention succeed, as long as the Qin army scouts dared to go out of the city, no matter day or night, there was only one ending.

Moreover, he had already sent 50,000 horses under Lin Yi's command out again, secretly bypassed the Light Wolf City, and ambushed in the west of this city.

Zhao Kuo looked at those military books in the camp tent of the Chinese army every day, as if he was not here to attack the Qin army at all, but to learn the art of war here.

After spending three days like this, these generals of the Zhao army couldn't sit still, and they came to Zhao Kuo's camp collectively on this day, wanting to ask what their main general thought.

Zhao Kuo watched several generals come to his camp tent together, put down the military book in his hand and said with a smile: "What, I can't stay here?" ”

Originally, I wanted to ask together, but I saw that Zhao Kuo had all become mute.

Qian Jian looked left and right at these unrighteous guys, and asked desperately when he was scolded: "General, you don't fight, you don't fight, you don't retreat, you just spend here every day, what does it mean, I can't figure it out!" ”

Zhao Kuo pointed to the seat next to him, and he didn't get angry because of Qian Jian's question: "Sit down, I think you should also come to me." ”

Wei Chen looked at Zhao Kuo, who had been following the main general, and he could see from Zhao Kuo's expression that the main general should not give an answer to himself and others, so he still didn't give up and asked.

"General, don't sell Guanzi, let's tell us quickly."

With Wei Chen's words, Lu Fang's generals all showed inquiring expressions.

Looking at their unified expressions, Zhao Kuo also felt that it was time for them to know their plans: "Do you know where Jiang Sheng and Wei Yuan led 50,000 cavalry to?" ”

Wei Chen and the others all shook their heads, they only knew that Zhao Kuo had arranged a secret mission for the 50,000 cavalry, but they didn't know what they were going to do.

Zhao Kuo took out the map he got from the Qin army's tent and handed it to Fuji and Xiang Yu: "Go, the two of you hang up the map and show it to the generals." ”

When the two of them hung the map in the air, Wei Chen and the others found that the leather map had been densely drawn by Zhao Kuo with a pen.

Zhao Kuo has clearly marked all the current postures of the Zhao and Qin armies on the map, which allows him to better think about the next strategy.

The eyes of Wei Chen and the others had been firmly attracted by this map, because all the situations were marked on it by Zhao Kuo.

"Huh?" Fang Xiu stared at the map closely, and suddenly discovered a new continent, "General, you also sent troops here?" ”

Fang Xiu walked to the front of the map, and pointed his finger firmly to the border between Han and Qin to Hanoi of Qin.

Zhao Kuo originally thought that Wei Chen found out about this situation, but he didn't expect that the first person who reacted was actually Fang Xiu.

He looked at the place Fang Xiu pointed to, and said softly: "This is the place where I sent Jiang Sheng, do you think Wang Yi will realize this?" ”

Wei Chen and the others' eyes were attracted to the place where Fang Xiu pointed at what Zhao Kuo said, and they all let out a cry of surprise.

"General, this is the territory of the Qin State, Jiang Sheng can actually gain a foothold here, how did he do it?" Wei Chen said in disbelief, this was simply a fantasy for him.

"Hanoi County, which was set up by the Qin State to capture the Yewang of Korea, was a channel for the Qin army to transport grain from the Battle of Changping. After all, the Qin people are brutal, and I don't expect that the people of the King of Dingye will definitely not be attached to Qin during this time. ”

"In this way, this is the best place for our unparalleled cavalry in the world, relying on the invasion of cavalry, Jiang Sheng is enough to launch an attack on the heavy troops of the Qin State at any location."

"General, where will the cavalry supplies come from, after all, this place is too far away from our Changping."

Zhao Kuo was really speechless about Lu Fang's question, but he still patiently explained: "The grain and grass that the Qin army transported from Hanoi to Changping are enough to support the Qin State's more than 500,000 troops. Jiang Sheng, as long as they intercept a star and a half, are they afraid that there will be no provisions? ”

"Oh, I understand, it turns out that Jiang Sheng and they rely on this to survive in the wild king."

Lu Fang listened to Zhao Kuo's explanation, and then suddenly realized that things turned out to be like this.

When Wei Chen and the others next to him heard Lu Fang's words, they all covered their faces with an expression of reluctance to be with them.

Lu Fang didn't care about this at all, he continued to ask: "General, even so, this has nothing to do with our holding on here?" ”

Zhao Kuo took out the bamboo slip letter that Jiang Sheng had sent before, handed it to Wei Chen, and asked them to circulate it.

After they all finished reading, they spoke: "Jiang Sheng and Wei Yuan did a big job in Hanoi before, and I estimate that now the Qin army has fallen into the dilemma of lack of food. ”

"And since their defeat yesterday, they will definitely ask Xianyang for help. In this way, it gives us a chance to kill two birds with one stone. ”

"One of them is the art of war, and the siege is actually our worst choice, for the sake of the lives of our subordinates, the siege is actually our worst choice. Now that we know that the Qin army may be short of food, it is enough to besiege it without attacking. Over time, the Qin army will definitely abandon the city, and that time is the best time for us. ”

"Second, after yesterday's defeat, I expect that Wang Yi will definitely ask Xianyang for help. It is impossible for King Qin Zhaoxiang to sit idly by and watch more than 100,000 elite troops of the Qin State die in Shangdang, and he will definitely arrange reinforcements to come here. All we need to do is surround Light Wolf City and not let this bait get out of our grasp, understand? ”

"The general is clever, we will definitely cooperate with the general and annihilate all the Qin troops in the Shangdang area."

Seeing that they understood their thoughts, Zhao Kuo immediately began to order: "Qian Jian and Peng Han listen to the order." ”

"The end will be."

"The two of you can follow the road opened up by Lin Yi and secretly move to the east of Light Wolf City, which can not only block the reinforcements of the Qin State from the direction of Hanoi, but also prevent the Qin army in Light Wolf City from fleeing quickly."

"The last will obey."

"Where is Zhao Kang?"

"The subordinates are here."

"Zhao Kang, you lead the equipment battalion to continue to build barracks here, and it will spread all the way to the foot of the mountain on both sides. To create an illusion for the Wang Yu in the city, the remaining army of our Zhao State can swallow the Qin army in the Light Wolf City at any time. ”

"My subordinates understand."

"Wei Chen, Xi Ying, Lu Fang and the rest of the generals, you have to make your subordinates fully prepared for the final battle that may break out at any time in the past few days, understand?"

"No!"
