Chapter 157: Change of Strategy
Yingkai looked at the white Longshan Mountain in the distance, it was winter, the heavy snow closed the mountain, and when night came, the mountain was like a huge monster standing not far from Qianyi.
Feng Rong's first attack failed, and the defeated Feng Rong soldiers withdrew north with the body of the Left Bone Duhou.
But Ying Kai knew that Feng Rong would not give up and would definitely react.
What kind of reaction will it be? Ying Kai can't say for sure.
Fengrong Camp.
It was dark, and there was no news of the Marquis of Zuo Gudu, and King Zazha of Fengrong and King Zuo Xian were a little flustered.
"King, why haven't you seen the news of the Marquis of the Left Bone?" King Zuo Xian got up and asked.
"Didn't Tanma say that someone from our army had already rushed to the city? Haven't taken the city after so long? Zaza said worriedly.
According to the calculation of time, it is time to take the city, why is there no news yet?
"Is something wrong?" The right valley Li Wang said.
Something went wrong?
Zazha Zuo Xianwang, "Let's send a scout horse over to have a look?" ”
"Hmm---" King Zuo Xian nodded, "By the way, tell the Left Bone Duhou that he really can't take Qianyi before dark, so let him rest first." ”
"Someone--"
As soon as Zaza's words fell, the guards hurried in, "King, the men of the Left Bone Marquis are back." ”
"Get him in quickly." Zaza said happily.
Under the leadership of the guards, the subordinates of the Left Bone Duhou walked into the big tent with a human head, and as soon as they entered the door, their subordinates knelt on the ground, "King, the Left Bone Duhou died in battle." With that, he held his head high in front of Zaza.
Yes?
Zaza was so shocked that he took a few steps back, and then held on to the desk so that he would not fall to the ground.
"What did you say?" Zaza asked in a low voice.
"The left bone is dead." The subordinate replied affirmatively, "This is the head of the Gudu Hou." ”
Holding back his grief, Zaza came to his men, and the head of the left bone was exposed.
Yes, this is the head of the Left Bone Duhou, although the person is dead, his eyes are still wide open and looking at Zaza and the Zuo Xianwang and others beside him.
"Huh?" Seeing the wide eyes of the left bone Marquis, everyone couldn't help but be stunned, and after looking at each other for a while, no one spoke.
After a long time, Zaza waved his hand and motioned to his subordinates to take down the head of the left bone Duhou, "Bury the left bone Duhou, don't let his blood flow in vain." ”
"Nuo---" men walked out of the tent.
Zaza, King Zuoxian, and King Liwang of the Right Valley did not speak, and there was a deathly silence in the big tent.
The left bone is dead?
Killed by the Qin people?
After believing the news, the first feeling of King Zazha of Fengrong was not anger, but outright cold and fear.
Who is this Qin man who came from Xichui Dog Hill?
Say strong, they are not strong;
Let's talk about being strong! I didn't see how strong they were.
But it was such an indescribable group of small Qin tribes that defeated the most powerful Fengrong tribe in Rongdi again and again.
What's going on?
Zaza sat on the couch and was silent for a long time.
He has nothing to say, he should have been angry a long time ago, and he didn't know how many times he should have sent troops to attack.
But what's the use?
"Your Majesty, it is imperative for the King to make up his mind." The right valley Li Wang said.
Make up one's mind?
Zaza looked up and looked at him dissatisfied, "What do you mean?" What does it mean to make up your mind? What kind of ideas do you think I should come up with? Continue to attack or stop there? ”
Facing Zaza's questioning, King Liwang of the Right Valley said with some embarrassment: "The Marquis of the Left Bone has been killed in battle, and we should have an idea whether to advance or retreat." ”
The king of Yougu Li did not say that he would withdraw from the army, he knew that once he said the words of retreat at this time, he would not say that it was Zaza, even the surrounding Fengrong soldiers would be able to eat him.
After all, Zaza is a person who has been the king for many years, and of course he can hear the meaning of the words of the king of Yougu Li, "According to the previous agreement, after the defeat of the Left Guduhou, you should launch a second attack, tell me what you think, how should we march next?" Zaza took the opportunity to kick the ball to the right valley king.
How to get started?
These four words have already shown that Zaza is unwilling to die in vain with the left bone Duhou.
"Weichen hasn't thought about it yet, please make it clear to the king, how should we march?" The king of the right valley took the opportunity to hand over the problem to Zaza again.
Zaza glanced at the Right Valley Li King with dissatisfaction, "Since you haven't thought of a countermeasure, then King Ben will give you plenty of time to deal with the Qianyi Qin people next." ”
Didn't you think about it? Then I'll give you plenty of time to figure it out.
If you come up with it, you will lead the troops to attack the Qin people; If you can't think of it, the responsibility is also on you. The angry Fengrong soldiers can't blame me.
There must be brave men under heavy rewards, and there will be ways under heavy pressure.
The king of the right valley knew that he could not get rid of the heavy responsibility, so he said: "The king, the king of Zuoxian, the minister thinks that we should change the previous practice. ”
Zaza looked up at him, "Change what you did before?" Tell us what you think. ”
"Previously, we have always adopted the method of suppressing the Qin people, but practice has proved that this method is wrong, and in the past few years, instead of suppressing the Qin people, it has made the Qin people more arrogant, and also killed several of our important generals, which seriously dampened the morale of the soldiers."
"I know this, just tell me what you think." Zaza said.
"What the minister means is that we can change the previous method of attacking and adopt the method of encircling but not fighting to deal with the Qin army." The right valley king said tentatively.
Surround but not fight?
Rong Di has always been known for attacking and fighting, and surrounding but not fighting will be seen as a sign of timidity and lack of confidence.
Zaza looked at King Zuo Xian, wanting to hear his opinion, but King Zuo Xian always had his eyes half-closed, as if he was asleep.
Loaded, loaded again.
Since King Zuo Xian began to pretend again, Zaza couldn't express his position directly, so he said to King Li, "What you said has some truth, let me think about it again." ”
Since neither of them was willing to express their position directly, King Yougu Li continued: "If we change our strategy and besiege Qianyi without attacking. After a long time, I think there will be changes within the Qin people. ”
Will there be changes within the Qin people?
This sentence immediately caught Zaza's attention, "You said that there will be changes within the Qin people, what changes can happen?" ”
"After all, the Qin people are a tribe from Inuqiu, although they have arrived in Guanzhong, it is difficult to be accepted by the Guanzhong country for a while, as long as they are not accepted by the Guanzhong country, they will definitely not be looked down upon by the royal family. Imagine if you want to imagine a barbarian who is not favored by anyone, can you have a good result? ”
Zaza nodded heavily.
Makes sense, it makes so much sense.
"In the case of being squeezed out, after a long time, can the scattered countries continue to provide grain and grass for the Qin people? Apparently impossible. The Qin army has no military supplies such as grain and grass, can it still stay in Guanzhong? ”
Zaza understood that this should indeed be the true thoughts of the King of Yougu Li, after a few battles, Feng Rong has lost thousands of soldiers, and if he continues to fight, there will be more soldiers sacrificed.
With such a big sacrifice, it would be painful for anyone to let go.
"King Zuoxian, what do you think of King Li's suggestion from the Right Valley?" Since Zuo Xian was pretending, Na Zaza directly woke him up and asked.
King Zuo Xian twisted his beard and said slowly, "It is a wise move to be relaxed, surround but not fight, so as to give our army a time to rest, and it is not too late to launch an attack when the Qin people are tired of prevention." Besides, we can free up more time to think about countermeasures. I think that's the only way to do it at the moment. ”
Since even the old King Zuo Xian thought that the method of encircling but not fighting should be adopted at this time, what else could Zaza say, so he said to the king of Yougu Li, "Early tomorrow morning, you will immediately take 3,000 soldiers and horses to Qianyi, and surround Qianyi City for me, and not a single bird will be allowed to fly out." ”
"No---," replied King Li.
