Chapter 406: Coalition Forces

In addition to being angry, Fengyang Jun Li Dui immediately sent someone to invite Tian Touch and Le Yi, and he decided to discuss the issue against Qin State straight to the point, so that the Five Nations Alliance could achieve unity internally, after all, the situation facing his alliance at this moment was also very harsh.

After a while, Tian Touch and Le Yi came to Li Dui's tent, and when they saw Meng Zhong and Storm Kite sitting in the tent, they were not surprised, maybe they mistakenly thought that they would continue to argue about the topic of the previous few days today, that is, whether to continue the crusade against the Qin State.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Tian Touch and Le Yi sat down, they heard Li Dui say with a gloomy face: "Everyone, people are harmless to the tiger's heart, and the tiger is harmful to people's will, the old man thought that Qin Guo intended to negotiate peace with us, but he never thought that Qin Guo was determined to wipe out all of us......

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Tian Touch and Le Yi, who also looked puzzled, glanced at each other, and immediately asked Li Dui: "Fengyangjun said this, I don't understand it a little. …… Did something happen? ”

Li Dui nodded when he heard this, and explained with the anger in his heart: "Two days ago, the Qin State sent an envoy called Gan Zhao, on behalf of Xianyang, hoping to sue for peace with our coalition army, the old man believed the lies of the Qin people at that time, fortunately, Yun Chengjun reminded the old man to beware of the Qin people's fraud, so when Gan Zhao asked to see the old man that day, the old man made a request according to Yun Chengjun's suggestion, and asked the King of Qin to personally go to my Zhao State, meet the king of our country, and discuss the matter of asking for peace in person......

As he spoke, he told Tian Touch and Le Yi what had happened, only to hear that Tian Touch and Le Yi also frowned.

In all fairness, Tian Touch didn't care about the casualties of the Three Jin Coalition and the Qin State at all, and even wished that the casualties of the Three Jin Dynasty, especially the Wei State, would be heavier, lest when he sent troops to attack the Song State in the future, the Wei State would send troops to aid the Song State.

But listening to Li Dui's meaning today, it seems that the Qin State has the idea of wiping out his five-nation alliance army - since it involves his Qi and Yan armies, Tian Touch will naturally not be indifferent.

And Le Yi also frowned for similar reasons.

"Is it really a trick of the Qin people?"

After thinking about it, Tian Touch Zhengse asked Li Duidao: "That Qin envoy, have you ever admitted it yourself?" ”

Li Dui shook his head when he heard this, and said in a deep voice: "That Gan Zhao didn't admit it, but the old man has read countless people, and the old man won't be mistaken, at that time, this person obviously had a ghost in his heart!" ”

Saying this, Li Dui's mind couldn't help but recall the dumb and weak-hearted expression of Qin Envoy Gan Zhao at that time, although this person tried his best to hide it, he still let him see some clues.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, the Qin envoy Gan Zhao's expression at that time may not be used as evidence, but the problem is that the credibility of the Qin people is too poor, and the problems that his coalition forces are facing at the moment are too big, how dare Li Dui gamble the fate of his more than 200,000 coalition troops with the credibility of the Qin State?

The two armies of Qi and Yan are also forgotten, but he doesn't want to suffer too much loss from the three Jin coalition forces, not because he has any favoritism for Wei and Han, but purely in the consideration of his own national interests - at present, the Central Plains almost relies on Wei and Han to block Qin's eastward advance, if Wei and Han suffer too heavy losses and can no longer resist Qin's invasion, then what should he Zhao do?

Once Qin annexed Wei and Han, the next one would definitely be to target Zhao, there is no doubt about it!

Therefore, Wei and Han could not die, and once Wei and Han fell, he Zhao would have to come forward to bear the pressure from Qin.

From the side, the storm kite also said lightly: "The Qin people are very cunning, they pretend that they will use Jingyang Jun and Gao Lingjun to replace the King of Qin to meet the Zhao Dynasty, at first glance it seems that there is nothing wrong with it, but the proposition put forward by Yun Chengjun is worth pondering. If this battle is won by the Qin State, resulting in the annihilation of our more than 200,000 allied forces, even if we still have Jingyang Jun and Gao Lingjun as hostages, who would dare to touch a single hair of those two people? Didn't you have to send those two back in the end? Speaking of this, he said with a sneer: "This is really a clever trick, and I don't know who wrote it." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Tian Touch and Le Yi glanced at Meng Zhong in unison, and each fell into deep thought.

At this time, Li Dui said in a deep voice: "I believe that some of the problems that our coalition army is currently facing, I believe that everyone here knows in their hearts, and I think that most of the Qin people have also seen some problems of our army, so they resorted to this trick to delay the army, which is intended to drag on for two months and make our coalition army fall into the dilemma of running out of food...... In order to prevent the Qin people's treacherous plan from succeeding, the old man decided to use troops against the Qin State again! At the very least, let my coalition first stand firm and survive this year's 'Severe Winter Danger'! Speaking of this, he glanced around at the four people present and said, "I don't know what a few people think?" What is your attitude? ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw the violent kite laugh and said, "I don't need to make a statement, right?" I have always distrusted the Qin people, and in the war between my country and the Qin state, I learned one thing, that is, when the Qin state gives you a benefit, it means that he is ready to take two points or even more benefits from you in the coming year. ”

"Well, the tyrant advocates marching." Li Dui nodded, and made the briefest summary of Storm Kite's words.

After Li Dui finished speaking, Meng Zhong also said calmly: "I support Fengyang Jun and the tyrant marshal, and continue to use troops against the Qin State." ”

"Well, the two of them support the march."

Li Dui nodded, and then looked at Tian Touch and Le Yi.

Tian Touch pondered for a moment with a solemn face, weighing the pros and cons of continuing to march into the Qin State against his Qi and Yan armies.

To tell the truth, not to mention continuing to crusade against Qin, he Qi State crusaded against Qin, in fact, he can't get any substantial benefits, can he Qi State still grab a few pieces of land from Qin, and govern these lands thousands of miles away from Wei, Han, and Song? β€”β€”The famous general Kuang Zhang has crusaded against the Qin State several times before, but in fact, the main purpose is only to contain the Qin State, and by the way, to promote the prestige of the Qi State for him.

To put it bluntly, at that time, the State of Qi considered itself the overlord of the Central Plains and did not allow the State of Qin to annex Wei and Han and surpass him, so at that time, the State of Qi wanted to suppress the State of Qin, and by the way, deter those countries that had bad intentions towards him and the State of Qi.

But now, Qi is a mess inside, how can there be any energy to maintain the image of the overlord? This crusade against the Qin State, to put it bluntly, was afraid that the Three Jin Dynasty would attack him after the group, so he made his attitude clear early and drew a clear line with the Qin State that 'violated the system and became the emperor'.

Putting aside this layer, whether to fight the Qin State or not, in fact, it doesn't matter to the Qi State, because the weakening Qi State has long ceased to be the overlord of the Central Plains, and can neither contain the rise of the Qin State nor maintain the posture of the hegemon.

But when Qin Guo was preparing to clean up the Three Jin Coalition Army, it seemed that he was preparing to clean up his Qi army as well, and Tian Touch certainly couldn't accept it.

Not to mention, the more fierce the Three Jin Coalition forces fought with the Qin State, the more beneficial it was to the Qi State - the only resistance was that his 50,000 Qi army might not be able to stay out of the matter.

After pondering for a while, Tian Feng nodded and said, "Since the Qin State has a harmful heart, how can it lead the neck to be killed?" Under the support to continue to march into the Qin State! ”

From the side, Le Yi also nodded and said after Tian Yi expressed his attitude: "I also support continuing to march into the Qin State." ”

Seeing that Tian Touch and Le Yi both agreed, Li Dui nodded and said in a deep voice: "For some reason, our coalition army is about to fall into the embarrassment of being unable to supply grain and grass, but in general, our coalition army has a great advantage...... In the past 100 years, the countries of our Central Plains have repeatedly attacked Qin, during which there are many famous generals like rhino heads and Kuang Zhang, but even so, the best result is only to break through Hangu Pass, even Hangu Road has not been broken, and now, our army has hit this Yin and Jin area, if we can continue to march and conquer three or five hundred miles of land to the west, we can hit Xianyang, the capital of Qin! But the premise is that the armies of our five countries must be united, if they are half-hearted, I am afraid that they will be divided and annihilated by the Qin people, and finally end up with the annihilation of the whole army. When the time comes, the Qin people will step on the corpses of our soldiers of the Five Kingdoms to intimidate the world! ”

Listening to Li Dui's eloquent talk, a trace of mockery flashed in the eyes of the violent kite, and he glanced at Meng Zhong as if he was mocking Li Dui silently.

It's no wonder, after all, in the eyes of the tyrant, Li Dui's will to crusade against the Qin State is not firm at all, but he was forced to have no choice, endangering himself, so Li Dui changed his original plan.

Of course, Meng Zhong noticed the look in the eyes of the storm kite, and shook his head slightly at the storm kite quietly.

He didn't care at all what purpose Li Dui decided to continue the crusade against Qin, let alone laugh at Li Dui, no matter what happened in the future, at least at this moment, his more than 200,000 five-nation alliance troops had a good chance to unite, in order to get rid of the embarrassment of lack of food in the army before the winter came, and to defeat the Qin army that was eyeing them, and truly unite.

And it is somewhat ironic that the opportunity for his five-nation alliance to truly unite was actually facilitated by the Qin army opposite......

To tell the truth, don't look at what Meng Zhong said when he persuaded Li Dui, those were all made up by Meng Zhong casually, he had already tried his best to justify himself at that time, and he couldn't come up with any evidence at all, but what made him laugh was that the casual speculation seemed to have really guessed the Qin people's intentions.

That's ...... It's amazing.

Since the five of them all advocated continuing to use troops against the Qin State, the five of them then made some discussions on the current situation.

One thing must be mentioned here, and that is Li Dui's control over his own emotions.

Don't look at him, he was extremely angry when he realized that he had been deceived, and he wanted to cut off the tongue of the Qin envoy Ganzhao and then expel him back to the Qin army, but he quickly controlled his anger and immediately changed his order to imprison Naganzhao and his entourage and put them under strict guard, which gave the coalition forces the upper hand.

Based on this, Li Dui put forward the idea of attacking the Qin army at night.

He instructed the guards to fetch the marching map and spread it on the low table in the tent, and then invited the four people of Storm Kite, Meng Zhong, Tian Touch, and Le Yi to watch it.

During this period, he said to several people: "In terms of leading troops to fight, the old man is not as good as a few, and even less than Yunchengjun, but there is one thing that the old man can still see, that is, the importance of Yin Jin to our army." ”

He pointed to Jinyin City on the marching map and continued: "So far, the grain routes of our army have all passed through Korea and through the Hangu Road, and the transportation has been here, and the roads are winding and take a long time, so the grain reserves in our coalition army are getting less and less; However, if we can take the Yin and Jin Dynasty, we can transport the grain and grass here by waterway, not to mention that the Yin and Jin Dynasty are across the river from the Fengling Crossing of Hedong County of Wei State, and if we take this place, our army can also get the assistance of the Gongsun County Guard, which greatly reduces the danger faced by our army. ”

This analysis, listening to everyone's nods, nodded again and again.

Even Meng Zhong must admit that although Li Dui may not have much attainment in tactics, after all, he is also old, and his various reaction abilities are not as good as those of young people; But in terms of strategy, Li Dui's vision is still very keen, and he can see at a glance that the best way to solve the current problems of his coalition army is to capture Yin Jin.

The problem is, Yin Jin is not easy to fight.

After thinking about it, Meng Zhong said in a deep voice: "What Fengyang Jun said is extremely true, if you want to eradicate the embarrassment that our army is facing now, there is only one way to capture Yin Jin. At the moment, the Qin army on the opposite side did not know that its attempt had been seen through by our side, and thought that it had stabilized our army. …… It's just that, considering that the opponent is the army of the Qin State, and it is commanded by Bai Qi, Sima Cuo, Huayang Jun Qirong and other Qin generals who are good at fighting, I think that even if these people think that they have stabilized our side with the strategy of delaying the army, I am afraid that the garrison of the Qin army at night will not be relaxed. After all, Qin Jun had already suffered a lax loss when he was in Menshui. ”

In order to avoid the suspicion of inviting merit, Meng Zhong said very vaguely, but a few people present could still understand that Meng Zhong was referring to the night attack of the Wei army on the Menshui Qin camp.

"Hmm."

Li Dui stroked his beard and nodded thoughtfully, and then asked, "Then, what does Yunchengjun mean?" ”

Meng Zhong carefully observed the march map for a while, then raised his hand and pointed to a place on the map, and said in a deep voice, "It's better to sneak attack here." ”

Everyone took a closer look, and their faces showed a little surprise.

"Zheng County?" Li Dui was surprised to say the name of the place.

The Zheng County mentioned here does not refer to Zhengcheng or Xinzheng in South Korea, but refers to a county seat about 40 miles southwest of Yin and Jin.

"Exactly!"

Meng Zhong nodded, and immediately explained: "As Fengyang Jun said, if our army wants to improve the current problem of inconvenience in transporting grain, the only way to do this is to take down Yin Jin and use the waterway to transport grain and grass, but this point, I think that not only Feng Yang Jun can see it, but most of the Bai Qi, Sima Cuo, Qi Rong and others on the opposite side also know that therefore, they will inevitably strengthen the garrison of Yin and Jin and will not leave any flaws, so as not to be taken advantage of by our side." In this case, even if our army is unexpectedly attacked at the moment, it will not be able to win Yin Jin. …… But Zheng County is different, most of the Qin people would not have thought that our army would attack Zheng County, after all, the capture of Zheng County will not solve the problem of grain and grass transportation for our coalition army. Therefore, we can't wait to take advantage of the other party's idea and take Zheng County first! ”

"Hmm......"

Li Dui nodded thoughtfully, and through Meng Zhong's explanation, he also felt that the Qin army should not be defending Zheng County, and they had a good chance to take Zheng County.

But the problem is just like Meng Zhong said, taking Zheng County can't solve the problem that his coalition army can't transport grain, what's the point of this?

Just as he was about to ask a question, he heard Le Yi say with some doubts: "Is Yun Chengjun planning to isolate Yin Jin and threaten Xianyang?" ”

As he spoke, he saw Li Dui, Storm Kite, and Tian Touch looking at him, so he explained: "Le can probably guess Yun Chengjun's intentions. …… Since Yin and Jin are difficult to fight, then simply do not isolate it, first take Zheng County, and cut off the connection between Xianyang and Yin Jin, which is the first step; The second step was to divide troops to threaten Xianyang and force the Qin army on the Yin and Jin sides to rush to Xianyang...... In the case of Xianyang being threatened, I think that even if Bai Qi, Sima Cuo, Qi Rong and others knew the importance of Yin and Jin to our army, they would not dare to rescue Xianyang without dividing their troops. ”

"I see."

Tian Fu nodded suddenly in understanding, and then he couldn't help but say, "This ...... It sounds a bit like 'encircling Wei to save Zhao'. ”

Meng Zhong smiled slightly, shook his head and explained, "It's a little different. …… At that time, Tian Ji, a famous general of your country, set up a plan to besiege Wei to save Zhao, and ambushed Pang Juan in Guiling, because Pang Juan did not know the whereabouts of your army, and was worried about the Liang, so he hurried day and night, and did not take precautions; But at the moment, the Qin army is very clear about the position of our army, even if our army takes Zheng County and launches a strong attack on Xianyang, the Qin army of Yin and Jin will immediately react and launch a fierce attack on our army from behind. At that time, the Qin army in Xianyang fought desperately to defend the capital, and the Qin army in Yin and Jin also fought desperately to defend the capital. …… Therefore, after we took Zheng County, we were not in a hurry to attack Xianyang, we had to gain a firm foothold first, at least we had to block the counterattack of the Qin army. During the period, you might as well give a message to the Qin army of Yin and Jin, telling them that Yin Jin or Xianyang, you choose one to guard. …… As far as I know, Xianyang has no city walls, and the Qin army of Yin and Jin will definitely not dare to ignore Xianyang. Of course, they may also launch a fierce attack on Zheng County, but as long as they can't defeat it, they will eventually have to give in. …… This is also the reason why I suggested that our army first gain a firm foothold in Zheng County. ”

Listening to Meng Zhong's eloquent talk, Li Dui, Storm Kite, and Tian Touch nodded one after another, and even Le Yi, whose eyes were a little complicated, inexplicably raised a smile on the corner of his mouth, obviously agreeing with Meng Zhong's tactics.

"It's worthy of Yunchengjun!"

After Meng Zhong finished speaking, Li Dui stroked his palms and praised, and then said with a smile: "Then there is only one problem now, how to sneak attack Zheng County under the noses of the Yin Jin Qin army!" ”

"It's simple, too." Meng Zhong pointed to the marching map and said, "As long as our army launches a feint attack on Yin Jin, it will be fine." …… According to my estimate, the army of Baiqi outside the Yin Jin City, our army has a great chance to defeat it. Of course, it doesn't matter if it can be defeated or not, and then, let's attack Yin Jin City again. I believe that at this time, Bai Qi, Sima Cuo, Qi Rong and others will inevitably be convinced of our army's attempt to capture Yin and Jin, and will inevitably gather forces and shrink the defense line to ensure that Yin and Jin will not fall into the hands of our army. Taking advantage of this opportunity, we will send an elite to take Zheng County urgently, and we will definitely succeed! ”

"Wonderful!"

Li Dui stroked his palms and complimented, looking at Meng Zhong's gaze was very complicated.

Also, putting aside all personal grievances, who doesn't want their country to have such a young general who can take charge on his own?

At this time, Meng Zhong added: "Attacking Zheng County, the soldiers are expensive but not too expensive, I suggest that Lian Po, Jin Contempt, Menghu, and Huahu go to take it, and the rest of the armies will stay here, and put pressure on the Qin army in this place, so that they have no time to take care of anything else!" ”

"What are the objections to Yun Chengjun's suggestion?"

Li Dui looked around at everyone, and when he saw that everyone shook their heads and said that they had no objections, he nodded, lowered his voice and said in a deep voice: "Okay! In that case, without further ado, let's do it tonight! …… Remember, whether we can successfully capture Yin Jin is related to whether our more than 200,000 allied troops can survive this winter, and the old man hopes that in this battle, our five-nation allied forces can be united! ”

"No!"

Storm Kite, Meng Zhong, Tian Touch, and Le Yi all responded with fists.

Perhaps because of the precarious relationship, the five-nation alliance, which had been separated from each other since the beginning of the crusade against Qin, seemed to be forced to unite at last.
