Chapter 111: The Book of War
Fifty miles outside the city of Jingling, there is a riverside with a forest of tents, divided into three camps.
Each camp is separated by hundreds of steps, each with a fence as a wall, among which the camp with the handsome flag of the Qin character is rubbed, the fence is built the most firmly, the bamboo and wooden poles are densely packed, the defense is no different from the wooden wall, the camp tent in the wall is arranged in an orderly manner, and the guard is also the most strict.
Next to it, the camp with the largest number of tents, the most extensive area, and the handsome flag of the king, the guards exchanged heads and whispers, and there were few patrolmen.
The largest camp in the middle is made of fine fabric, wrapped in layer after layer, and there is some cold early spring cold wind, which cannot be blown into this camp.
The door curtain is tightly sealed, blocking the cold wind, but also blocking the sun, in the daytime, the tent is lit with candles, the silk and bamboo orchestra is playing in unison, a small carefully maintained southern singer, in the warm tent, wearing single clothes, is singing and dancing.
Wang Min on the main seat beat and drank fine wine.
Qin Jie, who was sitting at the top of the left, frowned: "Envoy! The thief chief Zhao Ci is now struggling in Jingling City, our army only needs to restrain him, and as soon as Cao Huanglong's army arrives, the Shanyue rebellion will be completely over! ”
"Hugh wants to talk to me about Cao's sex! What Huanglong, the locust is still about the same, he has only been promoted to the county order, and he dares to disobey me, the commander of the assassin history, and also tied up the acting county magistrate and other officials I sent to Anlu, according to the news that he sent back the messenger.
These people have been sent out on the way to Niswan! That's the staff who have been following me for years! He is considered to be the oldest, why enslave them! ”
Wang Min is like a rooster that fries "hair", his tone is full of resentment, and he howls loudly, which scares the singers and musicians to stop, and he still has the demeanor of a celebrity.
"Exactly! There is also Zhuge Xuan's house, the lord treats him like a mountain, and he dares to betray the lord and abandon the light and the dark, which is simply a raccoon dog! ”
"That's right! Lord, please go to the court and refer to him! ”
The person who slipped the beard and slapped the horse, without the one who was sent to the acting county magistrate of Anlu, Wang Min still had a lot of people around him, and he was extremely active at this time, competing with each other for the vacated position of the head of the subordinate officials.
Listening to the praise of his subordinates, Wang Min's face softened a little, waved his hand, signaled the singing and dancing to continue, and threw Qin Jie's words into the garbage heap, and still held a grudge in his heart for the other party's admiration for Cao's sex.
Qin Jie looked at Nanjun Taishou, hoping that he could stand on his side, but the other party closed his eyes, as if he was asleep.
"Report!" The guards shouted loudly outside, and the singing and dancing stopped again, but there was no order, and the guards did not dare to enter.
How can this have the style of the military camp during the war, Wang Min directly applied the officialdom to the military, isn't this looking for death?
The more Qin Jie thought about it, the more uncomfortable he became.
Wang Min, who was disturbed again, ignited the evil fire in his heart, and his face was gloomy: "Say, what's the matter?" If you dare to disturb me casually, I promise to ask for your head! ”
"Knock~"
The sound of a heavy object falling to the ground came from outside the door curtain, and the guard's trembling voice came: "Hui Envoy, it was Zhao Ci who gave you a war letter!" ”
War books, this thing was very popular in the Spring and Autumn Period, the Warring States period began, and slowly became scarce, and the two armies fought, mostly attacking cities, fighting for strongholds, or indefinite encounters.
Qin Jiegang wanted to ask, but Wang Min was the first to speak: "This Zhao Ci barbarian even knows how to fight!" Good! I've taken this battle! ”
"What! Envoy, what is written in this battle, and where is the battlefield! Our army is 20,000, and the number of thief chiefs is more than ours, why don't you wait for Cao Huanglong to ......" Qin Jie jumped up.
"Enough! Do you want to teach me this? Do you also want to be like Cao's "sex" guy and not listen to orders? Qin Jie mentioned Cao's 'sex' again, and Wang Min unabashedly expressed his hatred.
Qin Jie was angry, but he didn't leave angrily, and still stayed.
The sky was cloudless, the sun had just risen, and on a flat ground not far from Wang Min's military camp, the two teams were separated.
One side is holding the flag of the king handsome, as well as the flags of Qin, Huang and other generals.
One side is holding the banner of Zhao Zishuai, as well as the flags of Chen, Guo and other generals.
Wang Min is the county soldiers of the three counties of Jingbei, in addition to the three thousand Nanyang soldiers of Qin Jie, who has Huang Gai, only the five thousand Jingzhou soldiers who have lost their commander Xu Xuan and their general Huang Zhong are left, and there is still a trace of combat effectiveness.
The remaining 10,000 county soldiers are simply peasants who have just put down their hoes, and they can only be used to replenish their numbers, and they can't fight tough battles.
20,000 Jingzhou officers and soldiers were divided into four phalanxes, front, center, left and right.
Wang Min deliberately arranged for the unpleasant Qin Jie to lead 3,000 troops as the front army, and then divided the 10,000 county soldiers of Nanyang County, Nanjun, and the two counties into left and right.
He led 5,000 Jingzhou soldiers and 2,000 county soldiers, and lived in the Chinese army.
In comparison, Zhao Ci was more dominant, and there were 5,000 Shanyue who were sent to Shanyue, as well as 10,000 Han troops crawling out of the sea of corpses in the mountain of corpses, and 5,000 cannon fodder.
Zhao Ci's square formation is different, it is cannon fodder wrapped in 5,000 associations, and it is in the front under the escort of the Shanyue prison army.
Chen Ying and Guo Shi each led 5,000 under their command, and the Han people who crawled out of the sea of corpses in the mountain of corpses were listed behind the cannon fodder, playing the role of the law enforcement team, and Zhao Ci led the 5,000 mountains to the last.
Under the battle book, 20,000 against 20,000 is exactly a move that Chen Ying came up with.
Wang Min was unsurprisingly hit, and the reply was called a refreshing one.
On the Jingzhou Army, if the 20,000 officers and soldiers handed over the command to Huang Gai, even Qin Jie, there might be hope for victory.
Unfortunately, this is impossible, not only did the 20,000 people have no capable commanders, but each part belongs to each county, and there are many disagreements with each other, and they can't quarrel for a day.
"What kind of army is this, with the old and the young, holding farm tools and fishing gear, standing at will, without any formation, dare to go to the battlefield!"
"Lord, look at our army, not only dressed in unity, but also fully armed, all of them are the unified armor of our Han Dynasty, we have won this battle!"
And Wang Min is not familiar with military affairs, but he has to command himself, at this time standing on the command tower, he is two subordinates who run to the battlefield to flatter for the future, and Wang Min is complacent.
regarded Zhao Ci's cannon fodder front army, which he saw most clearly, as Zhao Ci's main force, and didn't see the elite under Chen and Guo after that, and Shanyue, who was good at fighting.
The high-spirited Wang Min waved his hand to give the order, using the same set in the Spring and Autumn Period in the book, and he would only use this set: "Tell Zhao Ci that guy and let him speak before he comes to the battle!" ”
The herald walked away, and soon news came that Zhao Ci was willing to come to see him.
Wang Min pretended to go to the front army, and Qin Jie, the commander of the front army, had a headache.
I saw Zhao Ci's side, the strong rebels began to squeeze forward, and a Shanyue tribe commander dressed as a marshal came to the front under his escort.
"But the thief chief Zhao Ci! I am Wang Min, the assassin of Jingzhou, and I will give you one last chance today, surrender, and I will guarantee your safety with my reputation! ”
