Chapter 339: Counterattack [Two in One]
"PS: Ask for a monthly pass at the end of the month~"

"Kill ββ!"
With an earth-shattering shout, Zhao general Lian Po led an unknown number of Zhao cavalry and Zhao army foot soldiers to enter the garrison of the Qin and Wei coalition forces.
For a time, the garrison of the Qin-Wei coalition army was in chaos, and many Wei soldiers just yawned and walked out of the tent, when they saw a group of extremely vicious Zhao troops killed, and in a panic, they were powerless to stop it.
"Zhao Jun! Zhao Jun is here! β
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! β
"Stop them! Block them! β
"Quickly report to Da Sima and Fang Cheng Order!"
Looking at the panicked appearance of those Wei soldiers, the morale of the soldiers of the Zhao army was greatly boosted, and the nearby Wei army was defeated and retreated in an instant.
Seeing this, Lian Po, the general who led these Zhao troops, showed a smile on his face that his plan had succeeded.
"Sure enough! Sure enough, the Qin and Wei coalition forces were defenseless......
Secretly proud, Lian Po looked around, and immediately shouted: "Don't want to fight, follow Lian Po, let's go straight in!" Kill the Chinese army of the Qin-Wei coalition army! β
"Wowββ!"
Countless Zhao troops shouted in unison, followed closely behind Lian Po, and went straight to the hinterland of the Qin-Wei coalition army station.
At the same time, Meng Zhong was still lying in a tent in the Chinese military barracks.
A moment later, suddenly his guards walked into the tent quickly and woke up Meng Zhong, who was still asleep: "City order, city order." β
"Huh?"
Hearing the voice, Meng Zhong immediately opened his eyes, and subconsciously picked up the saber placed on the side of the straw couch with his left hand, and after seeing clearly that the person who came was his guard Lechen, he exhaled slightly and rubbed his eyes that were still a little sleepy with his hand.
Last night, after the unsuccessful ambush of Zhao Jun, he lay on the straw couch to predict Zhao Jun's movements, and I don't know how long it took before he fell asleep in a daze, and now is the time when he is most sleepy.
At this time, I heard Lechen say: "City order, there is a noise from the Dongying, there seems to be a sound of soldiers, I don't know what happened." β
ββ¦β¦β
Meng Zhong was rubbing his sour eyebrow bone with his right hand, and suddenly moved when he heard this.
I saw him pick up the water bladder next to the straw couch, pour the water inside onto his head, and then pat his cheeks with both hands.
The clear, slightly cool water made him sober up at once, and he walked out of the tent quickly, looking to the east of the station with a frown.
As Le Chen said, at this moment, there was a faint noise from the east side of the station, and it seemed that there were many people shouting loudly, but because of the distance, Meng Zhong couldn't really hear it.
"City Order, do you want to send someone to find out what's going on in Dongying?"
Konoe Lechen asked from the side.
Meng Zhong nodded slightly, and continued to frown and look in the direction of the Dongying District.
He hoped that it was just that the Qin and Wei soldiers in the camp had done something stupid, such as a fool accidentally setting the tent on fire while cooking - don't doubt it, the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds, even among the Qin and Wei armies, it is not without such fools.
But the instinct in his heart told him that his Qin-Wei coalition army was secretly attacked by the Zhao army.
"Unexpectedly ......"
Meng Zhong glanced up at the sky that was about to be completely brightened, and a slightly strange look appeared on his face.
The sneak attack before dawn, of course, he would not forget that he had used this trick against Wang Shi's army when he was in Zhao State, but he didn't expect that Zhao Jun would use this trick on him this time.
I have to say that Meng Zhong guessed that Zhao Jun might come to attack at night last night, and after the prediction failed, he was also inclined to Zhao Jun to come to attack at night tonight, but he really didn't expect that Zhao Jun chose to copy the strategy he had used and chose to come to attack early the next morning.
γβ¦β¦ It won't be Zhao Xi, although Zhao Xi may not have thought of this trick, but he doesn't necessarily have the guts. It's Lian Po ......
Meng Zhong's mind immediately appeared with the face of Zhao Jiang Lianpo.
In his impression, Lian Po has both strategy and courage, although he is a subordinate of Fengyangjun Li Dui, but he is really a rare general.
Taking a deep breath, Meng Zhong ordered in a deep voice: "Immediately send an order to Chen Yang, Wei Yu and others, ordering all the military commanders to immediately withdraw from the garrison, reassemble the soldiers outside the garrison, and outflank the rear road of the Zhao army that came to attack the camp." β¦β¦ Then pass the order Le Jin, immediately lead the Fangcheng army out of the camp, since the Zhao army came to attack the camp, there must be an army outside the camp, intercept this army for me! β¦β¦ Then send someone to send an order to Jin Kuang, Changchi, Wu Rong, Zheng Yin, Fan Bu and other Qin generals, and order the generals to assemble at the grain and grass......"
In just a few moments, Meng Zhong calmly issued more than a dozen general orders, sending all the guards around him, leaving only Le Chen alone to protect him.
At this time, Le Chen had also realized the current situation from the order issued by Meng Zhong, and asked with some anxiety: "City order, is it the Zhao army that came to attack the camp?" How good is that? β
"What's the panic?" Meng Zhong said calmly: "There is my 130,000 army here, even if the Zhao army of Taoyi is pouring out, our army may not be able to strike backwards!" β
As he spoke, he walked briskly towards the Dongying area.
It is true that he did not expect that Zhao Jun would choose to come to attack at dawn, which was of course Meng Zhong's negligence, but he was not panicked.
Although he used this trick to successfully sneak attack Wang Shi back then, you must know that at this time and that time, before he used this trick, he first used the strategy of tired soldiers to make Wang Shi's soldiers sleepless all night, and they were mentally tired during the day, and then he saw the opportunity and led the Xinwei army to kill into Wang Shi's camp in one fell swoop.
But what's going on right now? The soldiers of his Qin-Wei coalition army have not been consumed much, even if they were seized by the strange soldiers led by Lian Po, but considering that his Qin-Wei coalition army has more than 100,000 people, during the period when the group of Zhao troops broke through the camp, he Meng Zhong had time to mobilize the army and quietly surround the strange soldiers of the Zhao army.
Of course, Meng Zhong was so calm, it didn't mean that the other Sima of his Wei army could also be so calm.
For example, Chen Yang, Wei Hao and several other military horses.
Especially Chen Yang, he and the army under his command were stationed in the Dongying area, and the first time Zhao General Lian Po attacked was his camp.
When the Zhao army brazenly attacked, the military Sima was still resting on the straw couch, and after being woken up by the guards, he was stunned and at a loss when he heard that the Zhao army had invaded the station.
All in all, the military commander did not help in the slightest about the chaotic situation in the Dongying area, he just stared at the Zhao army who were chasing and killing his soldiers in the camp with a shocked gaze.
And at this moment, Meng Zhong's guards rushed here and ordered Chen Yang: "Chen Sima, Meng Sima has an order, ordering you to immediately lead the army to withdraw from the garrison and reorganize the army outside the garrison!" β
As soon as he heard that Meng Zhong did not ask himself to resist, but asked him to lead the army that was defeated by the Zhao army to withdraw from the garrison, Chen Yang hesitated for a moment, and immediately shouted and handed down the order, ordering all the soldiers in the camp to evacuate.
Seeing that the Wei army under Chen Yang was defeated and fled in all directions, the Zhao army led by Lian Po was very proud and immediately killed the Chinese army.
The road to the Chinese army needs to pass through the camp of Sima Wei of the Wei army.
It has to be said that although Chen Yang and his army did almost nothing to resist the Zhao army, they also bought a little time, at least Wei Yu received the changes that happened on Chen Yang's side in time, and immediately gathered his soldiers.
But even so, the soldiers under his command could not stop the surprise attack of the Zhao army due to their haste to the battle.
And just as Wei Xuan gritted his teeth and was about to defend this place, suddenly a guard sent by Meng Zhong ordered: "Wei Sima, Meng Sima ordered you to immediately lead your army to withdraw from the garrison, reorganize the army outside the garrison, and launch an encirclement from behind the Zhao army." β
Hearing this order, Wei Yu was puzzled: "Why? Fang Cheng ordered me to immediately lead my army to withdraw from the garrison. β
The children of Mengyi who might have come to give the order were not very good at speaking, and copied Meng Zhong's original words: "Fang Chengling thinks that the army under the command of Wei Sima may not be able to stop this Zhao army, considering that the Qin army may immediately send people to reinforce it, and the command of the Qin and Wei armies is mixed, and the soldiers on both sides are not familiar with each other, which may affect each other's battles, so Wei Sima still leads the army to withdraw from the camp and try to outflank the back road of the Zhao army." β
Nothing like this, I only heard Wei Fu's face red, after all, Meng Zhong's words were almost equivalent to saying that he was in the way.
However, dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction, he is also self-aware, he and the army under his command may not be able to stop this Zhao army, rather than causing chaos to the Qin army, it is better to obediently withdraw outside the garrison to reorganize the army and outflank the back road of the Zhao army.
Thinking of this, he nodded helplessly and gave the order for the entire army to withdraw from the camp.
In fact, in all fairness, Meng Zhong did not look down on the army led by Wei Xuan, but Meng Zhong estimated the speed of the Zhao army's surprise attack, and believed that Wei Xuan should not have enough time for his soldiers to face the Zhao army in the best condition.
Anyway, his Qin-Wei coalition army has more than 100,000 people, and it will not be broken by the Zhao army because of the lack of Chen Yang and Wei Luxury's army - in fact, even if the Wei army is all evacuated, as long as the Qin army is given enough time to react, the Qin army will be enough to hold the garrison.
At the sound of an order, the Wei army under Wei Hao quickly retreated, which made Lian Po, who led the Zhao army to fight on the front line, frown.
Previously, Wei evacuated the army under Chen Yang's command, which is easy to understand, after all, Chen Yang's army has been defeated by his Zhao army, but the Wei army here obviously still has the power to resist, but for some reason it evacuated outward, which made Lian Po realize that something was wrong.
γβ¦β¦ Are you already commanding the armies?'
Lian Po frowned and glanced around, then fixed his gaze on the middle camp of the Qin-Wei coalition army station.
For the time being, he didn't know exactly who was in command, but he could be sure that the high-ranking generals of the Wei army were already commanding the armies, either Zhai Zhang or Meng Zhong.
At this time, there was Zhao Zu beside him and said happily: "Sima, look, the Wei army in front has been defeated and retreated, and our army can directly kill its army!" β
As soon as the words fell, another Zhao pawn from the side smiled and said: "Haha, it turns out that these Wei troops seem to be arrogant, but I didn't expect them to be so vulnerable!" β
"Vulnerable? Really?'
Lian Po frowned and looked at the Wei army in front of him, who were rapidly evacuating to both sides, and looked at the vacated field, as if someone was conveying a message to him: Aren't you coming to Zhongying? Come on, come here.
"Killβ"
"Kill to the middle camp!"
Countless Zhao soldiers shouted and rushed to the middle camp of the Qin and Wei coalition army station.
At this time, Lian Po stood in place with Changge on his hand, looking thoughtfully at the Wei troops who had retreated into the distance.
He instinctively felt that he was like getting into a pocket at the moment, don't look at the Wei troops on the southeast side who were killed by them a moment ago and abandoned their armor, but because he Zhao army did not cause too serious casualties to these Wei troops in order to save time, this means that it only takes a short time for these Wei troops to reorganize into an array, which in turn forms a trap for the Zhao army led by him.
"Sima, something isn't right."
At this time, the deputy general Zheng Shen came to Lian Po's side, and said in a low voice: "These Wei troops still have the ability to resist, but for some reason they are withdrawing to the southeast side, as if to lure our army deep into their hinterland, and I suspect that there is fraud in it." β
ββ¦β¦β
Lian Po exhaled slightly, and said in a deep voice: "You mean, it is possible that the opposite side may deliberately lure our army deep into its hinterland, and then outflank the rear of our army, and sandwich it in all directions?" β
"It's not impossible." Zheng Shen Zhengse said: "For the sake of safety, it is better for our army to retreat. β
"Retreat?" Lian Po frowned and said, "This time our army attacked the Qin-Wei coalition army, neither did we severely damage the enemy army, but also did not burn the enemy's grain and grass, you actually said to retreat?" After that, he glanced at the battlefield in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "This time, our army used the strategy of Meng Zhong to sneak attack the Wei army, if we can't inflict heavy damage on the enemy army this time, and can't burn the enemy's grain and grass, then there will be no next chance......
Yes, as smart as Meng Zhong, he would not expect that someone would use the tactics he used to deal with, which is why Lian Po firmly believes that this sneak attack will go well, but what about after this time? Then Meng Zhong is on guard, can he use a similar strategy to calculate him?
Lian Po was not sure.
Although he was not convinced, he had to admit that in terms of strategy and use of soldiers, Meng Zhong on the other side was indeed above him, and he was worthy of Yicai, who was favored by Lord Zhao's father back then, and was originally the man who would have served as the Jinyang guard in his Zhao country.
Thinking of this, Lian Po gritted his teeth and said, "Kill it!" In any case, the grain and grass of the Qin-Wei coalition army must be burned! β
Deputy General Zheng Shen was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly persuaded: "Sima, even if we fail to achieve the expected goal this time, our army has at least caused thousands of casualties along the way, and this is also a victory that is enough to boost morale, Sima, why do you ......"
"That's it!"
Lian Po raised his hand to interrupt Zheng Shen's words, and said in a deep voice: "This is not enough! β¦β¦ Moreover, the Wei army is obviously already in command and dispatch, even if our army retreats at this moment, the Qin and Wei armies will also send troops to chase after them, and our army will also pay at least thousands of casualties at that time, rather than being chased and killed by the Qin and Wei coalition forces, it is better to fight, as long as we can kill the Chinese army and burn its grain and grass, the morale of the Qin and Wei armies will plummet......"
After that, he comforted Zheng Shen and said: "Don't worry, there is Zhao Xi behind our army, he will inevitably lead the army to kill when he sees that our army has succeeded in a sneak attack, and the two armies of Qin and Wei want to encircle and kill us, it is not so easy!" β
Seeing that Lian Po had talked about this, Zheng Shen could only nod: "I hope so......"
At the same time, on the side of the North Camp, the West Camp, and some of the Middle Camps, which were garrisoned by the Qin army, there were also guards sent by Meng Zhong to give orders to the generals of the Qin army.
The first person to be ordered was the Qin general Jin Kuang, who was the same rank as Meng Zhong in the army.
"General Jin, there is a Zhao army sneak attack on our army, and it has been killed in the garrison at this moment, Meng Sima hopes that General Jin will gather troops to guard the grain and grass ......"
I have to say that after hearing this order, Jin Kuang couldn't help but be a little stunned.
You said that you Meng Zhong is the general of the Wei army, and you can give orders to the Wei army under your command, and give orders to my Qin army...... Even, when I Jin Kuang ordered, do you know that our positions are at the same level?
Nearby, Jin Kuang's guards expressed similar dissatisfaction, but Jin Kuang raised his hand to stop them.
In all fairness, if it were other Wei generals, Jin Kuang would never listen to the other party's instructions, but Meng Zhong, the Wei general who once put his 60,000 Qin troops in a desperate situation, Jin Kuang honestly had no confidence to resist.
If it was a hostile relationship, he would do his best to stop Meng Zhong, but since they were allies at the moment, it would not be a shame to listen to Meng Zhong's advice, after all, the other party's troops were indeed above them......
Thinking of this, he nodded and said, "Jin understands." β¦β¦ May I ask, what is the state of your army today? β
Hearing this, the guards sent by Meng Zhong said: "Fang Cheng Ling has ordered Chen Yang, Wei Hao and other Sima troops to withdraw outside the garrison, lest after your army reinforces the middle camp, the soldiers of the Qin and Wei armies will kill each other because they are not familiar with it, and furthermore, Fang Cheng Ling also hopes that those military Simas will reorganize their troops outside the garrison and outflank this Zhao army. β¦β¦ As for our city army, Fang Cheng Commander has ordered Le Jin Sima to lead the army straight to the outside of the garrison to intercept the reinforcements of the Zhao army......"
"Reinforcements?"
"Yes! β¦β¦ Fang Cheng Lingguan observed the speed of the Zhao army's surprise attack, and concluded that the number of this Zhao army was not large, it should be the vanguard of the Zhao army, and there must be a large army in the rear potential, and now that my station is sneak attacked by the front troops of the Zhao army, the main force of the Zhao army will inevitably take the opportunity to attack, and General Le Jin will intercept this army. β
"I see, it's very thorough." Jin Kuang nodded convincingly, and then clenched his fists and said, "Please reply to Fang Cheng's order, for the sake of the overall situation, Jin Kuang is willing to obey his orders." β
"General Jin is generous." Meng Zhong's guards did not forget to praise him.
A moment later, with the acquiescence of Jin Kuang, the generals of the Qin army, such as Changchi, Wurong, Zheng Yin, and Fan Bu, all began to act according to the instructions given by Meng Zhong, some directly reinforced the middle battalion, and some were outflanked from both flanks.
I have to say that when countless Qin troops killed the Zhao army under the leadership of Lian Po from all sides, the huge momentum seemed to be a stormy wave, and before those Zhao soldiers could react, they fell into the ocean of the Qin army.
At this time, it is not difficult to see the gap between the soldiers of the Qin and Zhao armies, only to see that the soldiers of the Qin army are not afraid of death one by one, the people in front fall and the people in the back immediately take over.
During this period, Meng Zhong temporarily replaced Jin Kuang and gave orders to these Qin troops.
"There is no need to pursue the cavalry of the Zhao army, ask the soldiers to organize a phalanx, and in front of the shield wall, the cavalry will do nothing......"
ββ¦β¦ Advancing step by step, compressing the foothold of the Zhao army, especially those cavalry, once the cavalry loses the space to move, their performance is not even as good as the footmen......"
ββ¦β¦ Who is the Qin army over there? Not? Urong? Send someone to send an order to him, you don't have to rush to chisel through the Zhao army, just surround it, as long as you surround these Zhao troops, are you afraid that they will run away? β
Under the command of Meng Zhong, those Zhao cavalry who came to attack with Lian Po were first targeted by the Qin army.
Just like Meng Zhong said, when a group of Qin soldiers raised their shields and raised Changge to form a defensive line, the cavalry of Zhao State could not pose any threat to these Qin soldiers at all.
Under the advance of the Qin army's foot soldiers, these Zhao cavalry could only retreat, however, there was also a phalanx of Qin soldiers holding shields and Changge behind them.
"Besieged!"
"We are surrounded!"
Many Zhao cavalry who were surrounded on all sides panicked, watching the Qin soldiers in all directions advancing step by step with their shields, and then squeezing the famous Zhao cavalry alive with their shields, and then stabbing them to death.
During this period, there were also some cavalry of the Zhao State who tried to break through these Qin army formations, but even if they urged the war horses to crash into them, those Qin soldiers holding shields could still stabilize their bodies with a tight formation, after all, behind them, there were also robes with shields against their backs, even if they were the cavalry of the Zhao State, they did not want to break through the formation of the Qin army easily.
"Withdraw! Remove! β
Among the cavalry of the Zhao State, there was a general who shouted loudly, urging those cavalry that had not yet been divided and surrounded to retreat as soon as possible.
Under his order, a cavalryman named Zhao quickly retreated.
Seeing this, some Qin soldiers tried to chase after them, but they were stopped by Meng Zhong's order: "If these cavalry want to go, let them go, surround these foot soldiers......"
Under Meng Zhong's command, the Qin soldiers gave up the pursuit of the fleeing Zhao cavalry, and according to Meng Zhong's orders, they still advanced step by step in a tight array, sandwiching the Zhao army led by Zhao general Lian Po from Sanbao.
Pity those Zhao soldiers at the forefront, the Changge in their hands couldn't pierce the shield of the Qin army, and the Qin army was not in a hurry to attack, and while advancing step by step, they directly pushed the opponent to the ground with the shield in their hands, trampled it, and then continued to squeeze the space of the Zhao army's foot soldiers.
Under this offensive of the Qin army, the Zhao army retreated again and again.
Seeing this scene from afar, Qin General Jin Kuang was quite surprised: "There is still this kind of tactic......
Although the soldiers of the Qin army are basically equipped with strong shields, but using the solidity of the shields to forcibly push the enemy's foothold and make the opponent's formation chaotic, I have to say that Meng Zhong's order to implement this set of tactics opened his eyes.
At this time, Meng Zhong was commanding the Qin army while looking at Lian Po, who was still fighting bloodily in the distance.
It must be said that Zhao Jun took advantage of his blind spot and used the tactics he had used to deal with him, which was indeed a very good idea, and even he Meng Zhong did not expect it in advance.
But the question is, is it really good to copy this trick?
His Qin-Wei coalition army was not the Zhao army that was exhausted by him with tired tactics, but more importantly, he was led by Meng Zhong back then, it was the Xinwei Army!
You must know the other name of the Xinwei Army in Zhao State, but Zhao Wushu.
And what grade of army is Lian Po leading at this moment today?
And this is the reason why Meng Zhong did not panic from beginning to end - without one or two thousand Wei soldiers and elites at the level of the Xinwei army, you Lian Po wanted to use a small force to raid the garrison of the 130,000 Qin-Wei coalition army? Is it true that the armies of Qin and Wei are muddy?
You must know that the most courageous person in the world today is the Wei warrior of the Wei State, followed by the Qin army!
Thinking of this, Meng Zhong shook his head slightly, and said in a deep voice: "This Zhao army is almost unable to hold on, pass the order, all the armies are ready to pursue at any time, and they will definitely be destroyed here!" β
"Oh, General!"
The Qin generals beside him subconsciously clenched their fists to receive orders.
At this time, Sima Cuo and Zhai Zhang were standing in the distance together, both looking at this side with strange expressions.
Seeing that Meng Zhong was a Wei general, wearing the armor of a Wei general, but standing in the middle of a group of Qin generals, calmly commanding the nearby Qin army to resist the Zhao army.
However, the generals of the Qin army actually obeyed Meng Zhong's command......
ββ¦β¦β
Glancing at each other, Sima Cuo and Zhai Zhang didn't know what to say about the scene in front of them.
