"Ridiculous!"

After a moment of silence, Zhao Xi suddenly reprimanded.

This seemed to be a message, and after a while, Zhao Yuan and Xu Jun's eyes looked at Meng Zhong with a little more displeasure.

The reason is very simple, if Meng Zhong's point of view is correct, it means that Zhao Xi, Zhao Yuan, and Xu Jun, the three Zhao generals, were frightened away by Kuang Zhang's name and gave up the original good situation.

This is a great humiliation for a general.

Among the "humiliated" people was Zhao's father, after all, he listened to Zhao Xi's suggestion to retreat for the time being.

Raising his hand to stop Zhao Xi, Master Zhao looked at Meng Zhong quite seriously and asked, "Meng Zhong, is there any basis for you to say this?" ”

"Yes." Meng Zhong nodded, and immediately explained: "First of all, I want to state that it is almost impossible for the armies of Wei and Han to appear here. As far as I know, the heir of the king of Wei is newly mourned, and the crown prince Wei Yun succeeded to the throne, and the Wei state is in the stage of succession of royal power. Isn't Wei afraid that Qin will take this opportunity to crusade again? …… In the same way, when Kuang Chang led his army back to Qi and Wei was busy stabilizing the domestic situation, would Korea send troops to assist Kuang Zhang? Or will South Korea choose to station heavy troops on the border to prevent Qin's retaliation? …… As far as I know, Wei and Han have jointly attacked Qin many times, but they were all defeated by Qin, and this time it was because of the assistance of 100,000 Qi troops led by Kuang Zhang that the combined forces of Qi, Wei and Han were able to break through Qin's Hangu Pass and force Qin to sue for peace. But now that Kuang Zhang has withdrawn his troops back to Qi, even if Wei and Han unite with each other, they will not have a few advantages against Qin, however, Wei and Han still have to send heavy troops to assist Kuang Zhang to return to Qi and resist our Zhao army. …… I can only say that this move by Wei and Han is to hope that the country will be destroyed by the Qin State as soon as possible! ”

“……”

There was silence in the tent, except for Master Zhao, who had already figured out this matter, the rest of the people were frowning and thinking about Meng Zhong's opinion.

"Therefore, there is no possibility of any alliance of Qi, Wei, and Han, at most it is only 100,000 Qi troops under Kuang Zhang...... Oh, by the way, after the war with the Qin State, the army under Kuang Zhang's command is less than 100,000. Glancing around at the people in the tent, Meng Zhong said.

"It's just gibberish!"

Zhao Xi retorted when he heard this: "Didn't you see the armies of Wei and Han that day? …… Xu Jun? ”

He turned his head to look at Xu Jun, the general who was in charge of leading the raft troops to force the crossing of the river that day.

Xu Jun was about to speak, when he heard Meng Zhong preemptively say: "With all due respect, I only saw a support army holding high the banners of Wei and Han that day, but the flag is easy to imitate, and it is not enough to be used as a basis for judgment. After that, he turned his head to look at Xu Jun and asked, "General Xu Jun, may I ask what familiar faces you encountered when you resisted that 'coalition army' that day?" …… As far as I know, Zhao and Wei have also been at war for nearly 30 years, so I think the generals will know a few familiar faces, right? ”

"This ......"

Xu Jun stroked his beard and recalled for a moment, and then under the gaze of Master Zhao's father, he said honestly: "I really haven't seen a familiar general of Wei and Han......"

After that, he glanced at Meng Zhong, who originally supported Zhao Xi's point of view, and he was also a little hesitant in his heart.

Seeing this, Zhao Xi questioned Meng Zhongdao: "Then how do you explain the steady stream of coalition reinforcements in recent days?" ”

"It's easy."

Meng Zhong said unhurriedly: "As long as you order the soldiers under your command to sneak out of the camp at night, hide in the nearby mountains and forests, wait for the daylight, and then ask them to hold high the banners of the Qi, Wei, and Han coalition armies and enter the camp with great fanfare." If this is done repeatedly, it can easily create the illusion of hundreds of thousands of horses. ”

Master Zhao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and the rest of the people in the tent, such as Anyang Jun Zhao Zhang, Tian Buyu, Zhao Yuan, Xu Jun and others, were dumbfounded, obviously they had never encountered this kind of "fraud".

But thinking about it carefully, they also felt that Meng Zhong's words did have some truth.

"You...... How can you say lightly? ”

Zhao Xi questioned Meng Zhong again with a little panic in his voice, obviously he was a little anxious.

After all, once Meng Zhong's point of view is confirmed, doesn't it mean that he, a veteran who has led the army for many years, is not as good as a fledgling yellow-mouthed son?

The most important thing is that when Meng Zhong had already raised doubts at that time, it was he who swore to persuade Zhao's father and the rest of the people, so that Zhao Jun gave up the good situation and hastily ended the war that day.

If this matter spreads, he Zhao Xi will inevitably become a laughing stock.

"Just think about it."

Facing Zhao Xi's questioning again, Meng Zhong calmly explained: "As I just said, it is impossible for Wei and Han to come to the aid of Qi, and they must first ensure the security and stability of their own country. And the Qi army under Kuang Zhang, based on the fact that he led the army to attack Hangu Pass for more than two years, it is inferred that this Qi army is about 50,000 to 80,000, and there will be no more. …… Let's ask, if Kuang Zhang led this Qi army to the other side of the river, plus the army under the leadership of Qi General Tian, how could there be 200,000? It can be seen from this that this is a bluff and trick by the Qi State, using the banners of Wei and Han to make our Zhao army fearful......"

"Impossible!"

Zhao Xi retorted: "How can Qi have so many flags of Wei and Han? ”

Meng Zhong smiled when he heard this, "When did I say that it was the Qi Kingdom?" I'm talking about Kuang Zhang. ”

After that, he explained: "According to my guess, Kuang Zhang probably heard that my Zhao army was stationed in the sand dunes with the intention of attacking the Qi country, so he hurried back to the Qi country. Perhaps he had thought of pleading with Wei and Han for help, but Wei and Han might not have risked the danger of emptying the country and assisting Kuang Zhang, so Kuang Zhang retreated and asked for a part of the flags of Wei and Han, and ordered people to transport them in chariots to Qi day and night. ”

After that, he glanced around at the people in the tent, and said, "Everyone, think about it carefully, is this 'Qi, Wei and Han Three Kingdoms Alliance' too coincidental?" Just as our Zhao army was preparing to force the crossing of the river, this coalition army happened to arrive in ...... Scold! As far as I can guess, this 'reinforcement' has been around here for a few days......"

"How do you know?" Zhao Xi asked more and more in a panic.

"It's very simple, just look at the state of the 'coalition army' at that time. A tired army that came day and night, even if Zhao Pawn under the command of Xu Junjun was frightened by it for a while, it would not be defeated so easily. Meng Zhong replied reasonably.

Hearing this, Xu Jun stroked his beard and frowned and said, "Not bad! That coalition ...... The morale of the soldiers is not weak, it is not like they have come from thousands of miles to help......"

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Xi retorted again: "This can only mean that the support army arrived ahead of schedule and repaired around here, and it can't be concluded that it was Qi Guo who made a mistake." ”

"No, that's enough!"

Glancing around the tent, Meng Zhong Zhengse said: "A few days ago, the State of Qi sent Tian Yu and Gongsun Min to propose to cede Qiancheng County, and bow down to the State of Zhao to persuade Master Zhao to stop this war...... Of course, this is just a trick of the Qi people, you don't have to take it seriously, I just want to say, if the alliance forces of Qi, Wei, and Han have arrived on the south bank of the Great River at that time, why should the Qi people send Tian Yu and Gongsun Min to talk about it? Isn't that redundant? …… From this, I can conclude that there is no alliance army of Qi, Wei, and Han at all, and the Qi army under Kuang Zhang has not yet arrived here, and the 'coalition army' that I saw a few days ago is just a bluff trick by Qi General Tian. ”

“……”

“……”

After listening to Meng Zhong's well-founded analysis, everyone in the tent was silent.

Anyang Jun Zhao Zhang looked at Meng Zhong with a little more "amazing" in his eyes, as if he had never thought that this young man named Meng Zhong would have such careful thoughts and foresight.

In contrast, Tian Buyu looked at Meng Zhong with a smile on his face, with a little apology and embarrassment in his eyes, after all, he didn't listen to Meng Zhong's advice at that time - he still kept calling Meng Zhong a brother.

The rest of Zhao Yuan, Xu Jun, and Niu Jian looked at Meng Zhong with admiration, surprise, and admiration.

The difference is only that, in addition to Niu Qian, generals Zhao Yuan and Xu Jun also had some embarrassment on their faces, after all, they were indeed frightened by the "Qi, Wei and Han Coalition Army" at that time.

Of course, embarrassment is embarrassment, but the main responsibility for this matter does not lie with them, but with Zhao Xi, who suggested to Master Zhao's father to withdraw his troops.

It's no wonder that Zhao Xi is sweating like pulp at the moment, and his expression is flustered.

"Wonderful inference!"

After thinking about Meng Zhong's analysis repeatedly, Master Zhao stroked his palms and praised.

"Master Zhao praised it falsely." Meng Zhong clenched his fists and thanked him, and immediately suggested: "Master Zhao, the Qi army on the other side of the river must be complacent about deceiving our army, if our army suddenly launches a night attack, it will definitely be successful!" ”

"Night raid?" Master Zhao's father raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

"Exactly!" Meng Zhong nodded, and Zhengse said: "Master Zhao can choose a team of sharp soldiers, and order them to sneak to the opposite bank from upstream or downstream tonight, and sneak attack the Qi camp, the Qi army is only guarding the main force of our army, and may not expect that our army will send people to smuggle from other places, and when it is dawn tomorrow, when this strange army enters the Qi camp, Lord Zhao will lead the army to launch a fierce attack, and the inside and outside should be combined, and the two sides will definitely win!" ”

"Hmm."

Master Zhao nodded thoughtfully, and then asked everyone present, "What do you think?" ”

Anyang Jun Zhao Zhang, Tian Buyu, Zhao Yuan, Xu Jun, and Niu Jian nodded one after another.

During this period, Zhao Yuan glanced at Meng Zhong and said to Master Zhao: "Meng Zhong's plan is feasible, but there is also danger. In the final analysis, 'Kuang Zhang did not arrive with the army', this is only Meng Zhong's personal judgment, in case the facts do not match his speculation, I am afraid that our army will be controlled by Kuang Zhang. It's better to do this, Master Zhao sent someone to meet Kuang Zhang on the river first, if Kuang Zhang didn't dare to come forward, it means that Meng Zhong's judgment is correct, and then act according to Meng Zhong's strategy, which is more secure......"

"No!"

Meng Zhong interrupted: "If Master Zhao sends someone to meet Kuang Zhang, wouldn't it show that our army has doubts about this?" In this way, the Qi army will definitely strengthen its precautions. ”

Zhao Yuan said with a smile: "Little brother is too worried, as long as Kuang Zhang is indeed not on the other side, even if the Qi army is on the other side, what is there to fear?" ”

"Hmm......"

Master Zhao stroked his beard and nodded slightly.

After the meeting that day, Meng Zhong sighed slightly and said to Le Yi: "People are soft-spoken, it is indeed soft-spoken......

Le Yi comforted in a low voice: "After all, you and I have not yet established meritorious deeds, even if Lord Zhao values you and me, he is more or less cautious......"

"Meritorious...... Is it? ”

Hearing this, Meng Zhong glanced at the east, and suddenly muttered, "At this time, I think my five hundred guards are enough......

Hearing this, Le Yi was slightly stunned, and then looked at Meng Zhong incredulously.

"Ah Zhong, are you ...... No, that's a violation of military orders, and you wouldn't do that, would you? ”

"No, I will."

Meng Zhong smiled and reached out to put his arms around Le Yi's neck.

"And you will too."

“……”

Looking at Meng Zhong's smiling face, the corners of Le Yi's mouth twitched twice.
