Chapter 63: The Army of Light Enemies
The next moves of the two armies of Zhao and Qin were exactly the same, sending scout messengers to report to Handan and Xianyang respectively, and the biggest difference between them was that one went to Handan to report the good news; The other is to go to Xianyang for help.
After repairing in Danzhuling for a day, Zhao Kuo did not give the Qin army much time to adjust and repair, and took all the men and horses today and embarked on the journey of counterattacking the Qin army.
Compared with the last time he left his hometown, Xiao Se was sluggish and cold, this time all the members of Zhao Jun became energetic and high-spirited.
After yesterday's ambush, all the members of the Zhao army were extremely confident, coupled with the loss of the Qin army yesterday, this time they were in order to completely annihilate the Qin army and win the victory in the Battle of Changping.
Zhao Kuo looked at the generals under his command with a smug look, and couldn't help frowning.
The Qin army still has more than 100,000 troops, and Wang Di on the opposite side is also a general who defeated Lian Po one after another, and if the Zhao army adheres to such a mentality, it is likely to be defeated by the Qin army again.
After crossing the Dan River, the camp tent built by the Qin army had already been imprinted in Zhao Kuo's eyes. He decided to stop here for the time being, so that his generals could understand the seriousness of the situation.
Thinking of this, the horsewhip in his hand pointed at the camp tent of the Qin army and gave an order: "The whole army is now repairing the camp tent here for half a day, and then continue to march to Light Wolf City." ”
Zhao Kuo's current control over the troops under him has reached its peak after yesterday's victory, and under Zhao Kuo's command, it is enough to achieve orders and prohibitions.
Although they didn't like the dark tent of the Qin State very much, they still chose to obey orders.
Zhao Kuo walked into the big tent of the Chinese army built by Bai Qi, looked at the map that the Qin army had fled in a hurry and didn't have time to take it away, and said to the vine who followed up: "Go and gather the generals over, I want to lecture here." ”
"No, my subordinates will go now."
Compared with the map drawn by the scouts of the Zhao army, the map of the Qin army is more than a cut above each other in terms of the direction of the mountains and the terrain, which makes Zhao Kuo sigh at the super high quality that the Qin people have cultivated after several wars.
Just when Zhao Kuo sighed in his heart, the footsteps of everyone sounded outside the tent. Lu Fang walked in and said with a smile: "General, this Qin person is really, the darkness makes people panic, and it is really embarrassing for them." ”
Zhao Kuo turned around and saw that these generals had already come, pointed to the seats on the side and said, "Here, sit down." ”
Everyone sat down, but Wei Chen opened his mouth and asked, "I don't know what the general has summoned us to this place?" ”
"Do you think this battle will be won?" Zhao Kuo didn't greet them, and said straightforwardly.
"Heck, with the wise command of the general, I don't think the Qin army can afford to make waves. My old Lu is willing to be the vanguard of the general and take the Light Wolf City for the general! After yesterday's victory, Lu Fang's confidence surged, and he replied without hesitation.
Zhao Kuo turned his gaze to the rest of the people, patted the case in front of him and asked, "What about you?" ”
Hearing Zhao Kuo's unkind tone, everyone was silent, and even Lu Fang, who was excited on the side, shrank his neck and sat back on the seat obediently.
Zhao Kuo stood up suddenly, kicked the case to the ground with one kick, pointed at their noses and scolded: "Look at where you still have a commander, are your heads full of dung?" One by one, they are complacent there, do you think that the more than 100,000 troops of the Qin army are all muddy? ”
Zhao Kuo's words were like a huge thunderbolt, which shocked the generals present to cover their faces with their hands, which really made them too ashamed.
Zhao Kuo didn't let them go because they were ashamed, and then said: "Fang Xiu, Xi Ying you come out!" ”
"The end will be."
Fang Xiu and Xi Ying heard Zhao Kuo's roar and subconsciously stood up.
"You followed General Lian Po in a decisive battle with Wang Yu, and you forgot how he beat you to Danzhuling? How long has it been, forgot? ”
Xi Ying clenched his fists, as if he was back in the midst of defeat and retreat at the beginning: "General Qiyu, the last general is unforgettable!" ”
"Ha, what a toothless unforgettable!" Zhao Kuo sneered, pointed to his nose and said, "I didn't see it, I saw that the smile on your face was almost like a flower on your face when you marched all the way, you are so toothless and unforgettable?" ”
Seeing that Zhao Kuo's index finger trembled with anger, Xi Ying fell to his knees with a thud: "The last general knows his mistake, and I hope the general will punish him!" ”
"The last general and others know their mistakes, and I hope the general will punish them."
Wei Chen and the others finally knew what Zhao Kuo had summoned them for this time, and under the leadership of Xi Ying, they all knelt on the ground, begging for Zhao Kuo's forgiveness.
Zhao Kuo didn't speak at all, and walked out of the Chinese army's tent alone, just leaving a sentence lightly: "Since you know it's wrong, just kneel here for a while." ”
Zhao Kuo didn't go far, but just stopped at the door of the Chinese army's big tent. To be honest, he was really choked by the popularity of this gang, if he went to attack Light Wolf City with such an army, it would only end in defeat.
After a long time, Zhao Kuo thought about it, turned around and walked in again.
Looking at the generals who were obediently kneeling on the ground, he sat back on his seat and said, "Okay, the taste of kneeling is not pleasant, let's get up." ”
Hearing Zhao Kuo's tone slow down, the group recovered from their mental tension, and sat on the seat and inadvertently rubbed their sore knees.
Zhao Kuo didn't care about their small movements, and said calmly: "The Tao Te Ching once said that there is no greater disaster than underestimating the enemy, and the underestimating enemy will lose a few treasures, so the resistance to the army is added, and the mourner wins." ”
"At this moment, there are still tens of thousands of Qin people in the Light Wolf City, and there is the power of the city defense of the Light Wolf City, and there is still a battle in the face of us. But each of you thinks that this battle will be won, but it is just a formality. ”
"Even the soldiers under your command are all in this mentality, tell me for yourself, what will happen if I bring an army like yours to Light Wolf City? Bai Qi has caused the current situation because of a little contempt in his heart, let alone us? ”
Lu Fang slapped himself in the face, and he said loudly: "The lesson of the general is that we are too optimistic and almost missed the general's big event!" ”
Zhao Kuo looked at all the generals with ashamed faces, knowing that they had understood the dangers of this mentality, and his tone slowly softened: "Knowing mistakes can improve a lot, I am here for half a day to repair for this, I want you to correct the concept of the soldiers under your command in the shortest possible time, understand?" ”
"No."
"Then what are you doing here, get out of here!" Zhao Kuo looked at them and said stupidly when they promised but still stood there stupidly.
"Yes, yes, let's go."
Zhao Kuo's words were like an amnesty for these generals, and they all ran out one by one.
