The sun was shining, and a large army was marching westward with a large amount of baggage, and at this time the sun was in the west, and the sun was shining in front of it, and everyone in the army was sweating from the scorching sun.

The soldiers and generals were so hot that they felt that their throats were about to smoke, their lips were dry, and the fallen war horses and the mules and horses pulling the carts were all dressed in rough clothes.

"Why, isn't this kind of ghost weather to stay at home and enjoy the coolness? He came here to suffer! One of the team officers couldn't help but curse irritably.

This one officer is not the only one who has such thoughts and complaints, and many of the 15,000 or 6,000 people in the huge team are full of complaints.

As the commander, Zhang Xing naturally heard a lot of complaints, he looked back with a straight face, and ordered the herald: "Pass the order, the whole army will speed up the march, and we must cross the Baoqiu River before it gets dark today!" ”

Before the herald could agree, the adjutant general Qin Du said: "Marshal, you see that the soldiers are too hot one by one, and the horses and livestock are all tired, isn't it their lives that you ordered the soldiers to speed up the march at this time?" In the opinion of the last general, it is not necessary to give the order to let the army march to the woods in front of him and rest for an hour before hurrying! ”

Zhang Xing said angrily after hearing this: "Do you think that the commander doesn't want the soldiers to rest?" That Zhao Junsheng is by no means easy to match, he got the news of our army's retreat, and he will definitely lead troops to chase after him, how can our army march fast with so much baggage and property? If you delay any longer, you will be caught up by the Wei army in the afternoon! ”

Qin didn't care: "The marshal is too worried, what if Zhao Junsheng leads the troops to catch up?" I'll just send troops to fight him, we have 10,000 cavalry, are we still afraid of fighting him in the field? ”

"Ha, what you think is quite beautiful, if you want to beat him, will you definitely fight him? He only sends cavalry to keep an eye on you nearby, and you won't be able to sleep! Don't talk about marching, you just camp on the spot, and he will give you a cold breath, and you won't be able to stand it! ”

Qin was very unconvinced, Zhang Xing said that Wei Jun was superb, and belittled his own people to nothing, which made him very unhappy, he didn't fight, he was timid first, yes, it's really a wretch!

Seeing that Qin didn't react, Zhang Xing couldn't help but roar angrily: "General Qin, do you want to disobey the general's orders?" ”

Qin didn't dare to disobey the military order, so he could only clench his fists angrily: "The last general obeys the order!" ”

Although the order was conveyed, the execution was not satisfactory, and the soldiers were all roasted by the scorching sun, hot and thirsty, where would they speed up the march?

After walking for more than an hour and only walking for more than ten miles, Zhang Xing was so anxious that he wanted to kill a few people to deter the army, but at this time, a fast horse galloped towards this side.

The fast horse stopped in front of Zhang Xing, and the knight on horseback hugged his fist to Zhang Xing and said: "Qi Qi Marshal, General Feng asked the villain to report to the big marshal, the Wei cavalry caught up, there were about two thousand cavalry, less than six miles away from the rear of our army!" ”

Zhang Xing's face changed, and the few forehead lines on his forehead became deeper, he glanced at Qin Du, saw that this guy looked eager to try, and remembered the situation when this person collided with him just now, and suddenly killed in his heart, and immediately said to Qin Du: "General Qin, the Wei army has caught up, didn't you say that you want to fight them?" Ben Shuai will give you a chance, you lead 3,000 cavalry to turn around and defeat these 2,000 Wei cavalry! If you win, Ben Shuai will give you a credit; If you lose······"

Qin Du immediately clenched his fists and said: "If you lose, you don't need to be ordered by the commander, the last general will come to see you!" ”

"Good, go ahead!" Zhang Xing nodded and waved his hand.

Qin Du did not hesitate to beat his horse, turned around, and nodded three thousand cavalry to kill the Wei cavalry chasing after him.

Zhang Xing looked at the sound of Qin Du leaving with three thousand men and horses, and sighed secretly in his heart: "Three thousand brothers, this handsome man can't stand you!" ”

As a veteran with rich experience in leading troops, Zhang Xing asked himself to see through the intentions of many enemy generals, but he just couldn't see through Zhao Junsheng's thoughts, every action of this person seemed to be imaginative, no trace, since the capture of Yuyang County, Zhao Junsheng led the troops north, Zhang Xing felt that a big net was shrouded in him and his 20,000 soldiers and horses, which made him instinctively feel the danger, so he unexpectedly issued an order for the whole army to retreat quickly, Hopefully get out of the reach of this net before it comes down.

The army continued to march, and Zhang Xing sent people to the rear from time to time to investigate, hoping to get the battle situation and results of the battle between the Qin capital and the Wei army as soon as possible, but the cavalry who went to investigate the news did not return for a long time.

Five miles behind the Yan army, Wei army general Lieutenant Chi Yandong is chasing after the Yan army with two thousand cavalry, he is very helpless, these two thousand cavalry is the garrison of Liangxiangshu in Fanyang County, although these people's riding skills are not bad, but they are not really cavalry, only a few simple tactical tactics, and the execution is not strong, if you want to chase and kill the Yan army with these two thousand cavalry, you can't do it, but fortunately, his task is not really to attack the Wei army.

"General, the Yan army has sent three thousand cavalry to turn around and come back to stop us!" A cavalryman who was watching in front of him galloped over and reported to Lieutenant Chi Yandong.

Wei Chi Yandong set up a pergola and took a look, and really saw black spots in front of him, and soon a large number of flags appeared.

"Our mission is not to engage the Yan army, withdraw with me!" Wei Chi Yandong gave the order, and the horse galloped to the left, and the soldiers and generals behind him also followed the horse and left quickly.

Qin Du, the general of the Yan army, led his troops to kill, but found that the Wei cavalry had run away, he led his troops to chase for a while and did not catch up, Le Ma stopped and scolded: "Coward, if you really want to fight, they don't dare to fight!" Let's go, let's go back! ”

Wei Chi Yandong soon got the news that the Yan army had withdrawn, and he immediately followed with soldiers and horses, and the speed was very fast, and he was soon only two miles away from the Yan army in Qindu.

"General, they're chasing after you again!" A soldier reported to the Qin capital.

When Qin Du saw it, Le Ma stopped and shouted: "Come with me and turn around and kill them, go!" ”

Three thousand cavalry followed Qin Du to turn around and kill the Wei army, Wei Chi Yandong looked at it, pulled the reins, turned the horse's head and shouted: "Withdraw!" ”

The 2,000 Wei cavalry followed Wei Chi Yandong and ran as fast as possible, and soon distanced themselves from the pursuing Yan army.

Qin Du led his troops to chase after him for a while and couldn't catch up, so he was so angry that he scolded: "What's the matter, these Wei soldiers are sick, right?" Fuck, tease me! Go, go back! ”

When Qin Du led his troops to turn around and return, he only ran a few miles, and heard his subordinates report that the Wei cavalry had caught up again.

Now Qin Du's nose is almost crooked, as the saying goes, mud bodhisattvas have three points of fire, let alone a grumpy general? Qin Du couldn't hold back any longer this time, and said angrily: "Brothers, the Wei army is too much of a bully, and the general will turn around and chase them, if you don't kill them all this time, you will never turn around!" ”

The generals under Qin Du were also mad at the actions of this Wei army, and they all echoed Qin Du's orders.

"Hey, this is not a good job! If you don't do a good job, you will be reprimanded by the envoy, and if you do a good job, you will be said to be a runaway general! Wei Chi Yandong sighed helplessly, and when he saw Qin Du leading his troops to kill again, he immediately waved his hand and ordered loudly: "Withdraw!" ”

This time Qin Du took 3,000 cavalry to chase after Wei Chi Yandong's 2,000 cavalry, Wei Chi Yandong had already been instructed by Zhao Junsheng not to run too fast, run too fast Yan Jun can't keep up, too slow will be caught up again, can only be not fast or slow, always keep a certain distance from the pursuing Yan army, hang the appetite of the Yan army, and speed up again when the Yan army thought it was about to catch up, to open the distance.

Under a hill.

There were thousands of cavalry hidden here, and the generals all led their horses to hide in the woods on the hillside to rest in the cold, and one by one they took dry rations and carried water bags to eat.

Zhao Junsheng took a steamed cake and gnawed on it, and drank a sip of water when it felt too dry, Hua Mulan sat next to her and also ate steamed cakes, she took a sip of steamed cake and swallowed it, took another sip of water, and asked, "Brother Junsheng, can Wei Chi Yandong complete this tactic?" Why hasn't there been any movement until now? ”

Zhao Junsheng swallowed a mouthful of dry food and said to Mulan: "Although Wei Chi Yandong is not decisive enough and sometimes has too many concerns, he still has some ability in leading troops to fight, so we must give trust to our subordinates and let them give full play to their subjective initiative!" Do you know how Zhuge Kongming died? ”

"I know this, I'm sick to death!" Hua Mulan immediately said that she had read Chen Shou's "Three Kingdoms".

"That's right, but his illness is a disease caused by hard work, and he will be unable to bear it himself. There are advantages to doing things personally, but there are also disadvantages, and the advantage is that he has no last resort; The disadvantage is that he exhausted himself to death, and it also made Shu Han reach a situation where no one was available in the later stage. Because his affairs must be personally limited, the talent cultivation of his generals and subordinate officials is limited! If you don't delegate power and don't let your generals take charge alone, how can their talents be improved and brought into play? In fact, many people's talents are trained, not innate, if you don't give your subordinates the opportunity to exercise, your subordinates will naturally not be able to grow up! ”

"I'll give you the simplest example, a few years ago, you were asked to speak in front of hundreds of people, and you stumbled when you spoke, but now you are asked to speak in front of tens of thousands of people, but you speak very fluently, and you speak one set at a time! Why is that? That's right, this talent is practiced! Why can't anyone else? Because they don't have a chance and a stage".

After hearing this, Mulan felt quite reasonable, "It's really true to hear you say that!" ”

At this time, a fast horse galloped from afar, Zhao Junsheng looked over and said to Mulan; "Look, isn't this news?"

The cavalry jumped off their horses and ran over to report to Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan: "General Qiyu, General Wei Chi has led people to lead away the cavalry of the three thousand Yan Army, and is taking them in circles according to expectations!" ”

Zhao Junsheng nodded, turned his head and asked Mulan, "Mulan, what do you think we should do next?" ”

Hua Mulan thought for a while and said, "When these three thousand Yan troops are exhausted, send troops to solve them!" In addition, another team of men and horses was sent over to hang the main force of the Yan army, which made Zhang Xing panic! ”

"That's a good idea, haha······" Zhao Junsheng laughed a few times and beckoned to Huahai: "Huahai, come here!" ”
