Volume 17 Redefining the Central Plains Chapter 2 Strategizing

Since the death of the first emperor, Guanzhong began to build the mausoleum of the first emperor while overhauling the Afang Palace, and requisitioned as many as one million people from all over the world.

According to the so-called 'wonderful theory' of Gong Weijingshi, a member of Zhao Gao and others, all the people who were requisitioned from the six countries of Guanzhong must bring their own grain, and they are not allowed to buy a grain from Guanzhong, and the state does not pull out a little grain and grass from the state treasury. In this way, the grain brought by the people from the six countries of Kanto from their hometown had already been consumed by two-thirds before it arrived in Guanzhong, and the food would be exhausted within a few days of repairing the project; And because of the long distance, the grain in the hometown could not be helped for a while, and then when the war broke out, not a grain of grain and rice could be transported into the customs!

In order to survive, the people of the six countries of Kanto had to buy grain from the black market in Guanzhong at a high price to make ends meet. For a time, the price of grain in Guanzhong soared, and the price of goods soared. However, after a month, the six national husbands of the Kanto region ran out of money, and there was no way to get them from their hometowns, so they immediately fell into a desperate situation. As a result, from time to time, a large number of people rebelled out of the construction site and infiltrated the people of Guanzhong, at first they only plundered ordinary farmers, and later their power developed into a large number, and they focused on large households in Guanzhong.

For a time, Guanzhong was in chaos, and the poor Qin State, which had always been known as 'no thieves in Guanzhong', was full of thieves!

In the face of the increasingly chaotic situation in Guanzhong, Zhao Gao and others did not consider solving the problem fundamentally, but only ordered the use of heavy troops to suppress it. As a result, near Xianyang, a large number of mobs were captured and beheaded by officers and soldiers every day, and for more than ten days in a row, Xianyang Xiaoye killed more than 100,000 mobs, and the earth was red.

Under the tyranny of Zhao Gao, the chaotic situation in Guanzhong was suppressed for a while, but the food problem of the six national husbands was still not fundamentally solved, leaving a huge hidden danger.

Pity the people from the six countries of Kanto who have no food, and they don't dare to grab food, and the end is only starvation! Soon, there were many starving corpses outside the city and on the side of the road and ditches, most of them were the people who defected from the six countries of Kwantung, and there were also local natives who had nothing to eat after being looted.

Hu Hai, Zhao Gao and others quickly aroused the dissatisfaction of the government and the opposition. The people's hearts are rapidly draining!

Soon, when Guanzhong was in turmoil, the news that Fusu waved his army into the Central Plains and proclaimed himself emperor in that city reached Guanzhong, which immediately caused an uproar: for a time, down to the guards of the pass, the county and county officials, the rural elders, and the ministers and princes and nobles of the court were all shocked when they heard the news. In comparison, these people's trust and love for Fusu far exceeded that of Hu Hai and Zhao Gao, and they suddenly had strong doubts about Hu Hai's orthodox status in their hearts, and at the same time hated Zhao Gao and other traitors.

Immediately. Rumors spread in Guanzhong, and the news of Hu Hai, Zhao Gao and others usurping the throne and plotting rebellion spread everywhere.

The strong public opinion of the people made Hu Hai, Zhao Gao and others very frightened, and they immediately used the state apparatus in their hands to severely suppress this. For a time, the bloody massacre of the mob in Guanzhong had just dissipated, and a new round of massacres began: any courtiers and civilians suspected of being dissatisfied with the government would be killed as long as they were captured, and they would be killed without mercy; At the same time, Zhao Gao and others also took the opportunity to begin to wantonly ostracize dissidents and compete for political power, and many upright ministers of the DPRK and China were either killed, demoted, or forced to do so. Escape from Qin. Meng Yi, Wang Ben and others, who had been prepared for a long time, fled to the Mengtian military camp in Beiyuan through the straight road when there was chaos in Guanzhong, so that Zhao Gao and others had no way to start!

Time. The people in Guanzhong were panicked, and the government and the opposition dared to be angry but did not dare to speak under the cruel pressure of Hu Hai, Zhao Gao and others!

At the same time that Guanzhong, which had been calm for hundreds of years, was becoming more and more chaotic. The war in the Central Plains also became increasingly fierce, and the rebel armies of various countries attacked the cities in the eastern part of the country, and the cities of the Qin State fell one after another, but it took only a few months. There aren't many cities in Kanto that have the surname Qin anymore!

Knowing that after conquering Nanjun, Fusu pulled out his camp and went north the next day, and the troops went straight to Yang!

Along the way, relying on the strong field and siege capabilities of the 400,000 Qin army. More than a dozen county towns along the way are devastating and decaying, and they are broken, but in half a month, they arrived at Nanyang City from Nanjun City, showing the extremely terrifying combat effectiveness of the regular army of Qin!

At this time, the army of Zhou Wen and Zhou City had already returned to Nanyang under the bloodshed of the attack on Tiger Prison Pass. When Zhou Wen and Zhou Shi's army attacked Yingchuan, they led 50,000 troops, and after sweeping the whole county of Yingchuan County, the strength has increased to 100,000, and nearly 30,000 people were lost in attacking Tiger Pass, and nearly 70,000 people returned to Nanyang City, and joined 20,000 defenders in Nanyang to resist the Qin army! And Yingchuan City was left to the 20,000 allied troops under the command of Hengyang Jun Hengcheng, responsible for receiving Zhao from Wei, Zhao, Qi and other places to rescue the princes of Nanyang!

For a while, a huge storm began to brew under Nanyang City!

Under the city of Nanyang, in the tent of the commander of the Qin State battalion, Fusu and the generals were deliberating.

Looking at the geographical environment around Nanyang City, Fusu thought for a while and said: "Generals, Nanyang City is located in the north and south of the water and land, and the geographical location is extremely important. Moreover, this is the location of the two thieves Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, the largest rebels at present, and it is even more unavoidable! At present, the thief army in Nanyang City has gathered nearly 100,000 troops, and they are holding on to it in spite of danger, what do you think of the generals?"

Li Xin thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, depending on the general, how can this Chen Sheng and Wu Guang still understand the current affairs, and it is the best choice to abandon the city and leave or go to the battlefield and surrender." Now it has put on a stubborn position, which shows that it lacks the ability to strategize, and it is a group of rabble, and it is not enough to be afraid!"

Zhao Tuo smiled when he heard this: "What General Li said is that these rebels were still farmers farming land or useless nobles of the Six Kingdoms two or three months ago, how many strategies do they have, as long as Your Majesty waves his army to attack, it is expected that this Nanyang will be broken in ten days!"

Fusu thought about it, looked at Zhang Liang, and said with a smile: "What does the military master of the ovary think?" Zhang Liang said with a smile: "Although Chen Sheng and Wu Guang are from peasant backgrounds, since they dare to take the lead in raising an incident and are the leaders of the alliance elected by all the rebels in the world, they must have their superiority!" I don't think there is some support, these two people will never dare to trap the lonely city of Nanyang and fight with me!"

Shi Lu frowned, and said with a sense of understanding: "What does the military advisor mean is that this Nanyang City may be a bait?"

Fusu nodded and said, "Yes, Nanyang City is located at the top of the world, and it is extremely easy to get the full support of the princes of the Kwantung region!" The wishful thinking of the two thieves of Lenovo Chen and Wu is: to use Nanyang Jiancheng to contain our 400,000 army under the city, and at the same time call on all the armies in the eastern part of the country to come to the aid and flank our army. Vainly trying to annihilate the main force of our army in one fell swoop and realize its dream of dominating the Central Plains!"

Qiang Kui couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "These two thieves think about it very beautifully, and he doesn't want to think about it, can they win it with their rabble!?"

Li Xin said with a smile: "This is what you think, those thief troops may not agree with General Qiang's opinion!" The crowd laughed!

Fusu also smiled and said: "However, this is a good time, we can come up with a plan, for the time being, we will besiege Nanyang without attacking, and then wait for the arrival of the support armies, first eat the support armies, and comprehensively attack the living forces of the thief armies in the Kwantung region." Finally, I will free up my hands and make every effort to solve Nanyang. This trick is called 'encirclement and reinforcement'.

Zhang Liang nodded and said, "What Your Majesty said is that the minister also conceived like this. It's just that this trick is a bit dangerous, in case of a slight accident, it will be attacked by the thief army inside and outside, but it is also quite unfavorable to our army! Be careful!"

Fusu nodded, and said: "Yes, sometimes success and failure are often just a thin line, and the generals must not be easy!" Immediately send the edict of the Union: From now on, all armies will strengthen the camp. Strictly guard the camp, and at the same time send a large number of scouts and outposts from all directions. If there is any change, report it immediately!" Whoa!" The generals are commanded!

After receiving the edict of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang to ask for help. At the beginning, the reactions of the princes of the two alliances were different:

Wuchen, Zhang Er, and Chen Yu, who had just captured Handan County, immediately sent Chen Yu to command 50,000 troops to the south to rescue Nanyang, which was the most active and loyal one.

Wei Ji and Wei Bao, who occupied Dong County and Hanoi, hesitated for a moment. Still focusing on the overall situation, the two of them later took Wei Bao as the general and commanded 20,000 troops to arrive in Yingchuan and prepare to aid Nanyang.

And Peng Yue, who had just occupied Dangjun, was the weakest, with only more than 10,000 people. But he also led 5,000 elite soldiers to the west to Yingchuan.

Jing Ju took Qin Jia as the general, and commanded an army of 20,000 to march west along the Huai River, moving slowly all the way, waiting and watching the situation.

Although Tian Dan, Tian Rong, Tian Heng and others, who occupied most of Qidi, had more than 100,000 heavy troops, they only sent 30,000 troops at this time, with Tian Rong as the commander, and rushed all the way to Yingchuan.

And Liu Bang, who only occupied Feng County, pretended to be deaf and dumb to Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's edicts, and only cared about expanding his strength.

And Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu, who occupied Huiji, were facing another difficult decision at this time: Poyang ordered Wu Rui to lead 30,000 Qin troops to rapidly advance eastward, and Cao Shen and Han Anguo's 80,000 troops formed a special horn and pincered Huiji, and Huiji was in danger for a while. Coincidentally, at this time, Erxiang received the edict of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang asking for help, and was immediately overjoyed, so he took the rescue of the alliance leader as the slogan, abandoned Huiji, and led the main force of 40,000 people to Guangling, Huaiyin and other Huaishang hometowns, while gathering strength, while temporarily avoiding the main force of the Qin army!

This scene is really full of all living beings, the loyal can be, there are those who are at both ends of the snake and rat, and there are those who pretend to be deaf and dumb, but on the surface, it seems that nearly 200,000 rebels from all walks of life are gathering towards Yingchuan, preparing to fight with the Qin army of the Fusu Division!

All kinds of information were continuously gathered into the hands of Fusu through the efforts of the Qin army and Momen, and they closely watched the movements of the various rebel armies!

At the beginning of September, the hot weather turned slightly cooler, and Fusu, who had been immobile outside Nanjun for nearly a month, finally held a military meeting again!

Looking at the densely planted flags representing various forces on the nearby sand table, all the generals of the Qin army couldn't help but take a breath: It seems that there are a lot of enemy troops coming to help!

Zhang Liang introduced to everyone: "Your Majesty, generals, the enemy army currently gathered in Yingchuan has four groups of about 100,000 people, Han Guang, Chen Yu, Wei Bao, and Peng Yue, which are about 700 miles away from me; In addition, a rebel army of Qin Jia is advancing west along the Huai River, about 700 miles away from me; And the 30,000 people of Tian Rongbu are still far away in Dangjun, about 1,500 miles away; Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu had no intention of coming to help, and they were completely under the banner of rescue but did their own thing, and now they have captured Guangling, Huaiyin, and Changping, and recovered their hometown. I, Wu Rui, Cao Shen, and Han Anguo, have more than 100,000 troops in Zhengtun to gather in Tun, clear the remnants of the Xiang clan, stabilize the place, and have no power to go north for a while! The current situation is like this, generals, how should we resist the enemy?"

Zhao Tuo was the first to speak: "Your Majesty, military advisors, generals. It seems that the thief armies in various places are not united, which gives our army a chance to win! The last general thought that he could leave 100,000 elites under Nanyang City to contain the main forces of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, and the remaining 300,000 troops went north to conquer Yingchuan City in one fell swoop. As soon as the Yingchuan thief army is wiped out, the three-way army of Qin Jia, Tian Rong, and Xiang Liang will inevitably retreat without a fight. At that time, the army will return to Nanyang, and it will be easy to break this lonely city!"

Shi Lu was a little suspicious when he heard this: "What General Zhao said is quite reasonable, but there are still 40,000 Wei Qi troops and 30,000 Tian Rong troops on the front line of Hanoi and Dong County. I'm afraid that I will be at risk of being attacked by the enemy, and the war may drag on! Something seems wrong!"

Li Xin nodded and said: "Yes, Yingchuan is also a county seat, although it is not as steep as Nanyang, it is also a strong city. If our army marches to Nancheng Yangxia in a hurry, and wants to break through the city before the reinforcements of Tian Rong and Wei Qi arrive in Yingchuan, the time will not exceed seven days, is it too tense!? Moreover, Qin Jia and Qin all the way to the west of the Qin army along the Huaishui, approaching the rear of our army's grain road, in case the city is broken. Qin Jia's sudden westward advance, wouldn't it endanger our army's food route!? I thought it would be better to send a light cavalry to advance overnight. In the first battle, the Qin Jia's department was eliminated first to remove the troubles. Then the army besieged Nanyang City, absorbed the enemy army from Yingchuan to help, and our army set up an ambush in the middle to annihilate it!"

Zhao Tuo smiled: "There are pros and cons to everything, and it is impossible to cover everything." If the city is besieged and ambushed. The enemy army on the Yingchuan side will definitely take the bait! Your Majesty, the minister insists on his own opinion, please make a decision!"

Qiang Kui scratched his head and said with a smile: "I don't bother with that brain. I listen to His Majesty's arrangement, and His Majesty will fight how He says!" The generals laughed, this guy is worry-free!

Fusu blinked, and smiled slowly: "You guys, your appetite is too small!" Solve them one by one, it's too troublesome!" Li Xin said with some surprise: "Your Majesty is planning to attack in an all-out way at the same time!?" In this way, I am afraid that it will give the enemy a chance to break through, please think twice!"

Fusu couldn't help but smile: "It seems that the generals didn't guess the battle idea of the alliance, Zifang military division, what about you?" Zhang Liang was also a little confused, and said after a while: "The minister is ignorant, I don't know what His Majesty's holy will is!"

Fu Su said with a smile: "My battle method is false and real, and Chen Sheng, Wu Guang and other children can't guess it!" Lianyi thought: Send General Zhao Tuo to lead 10,000 light cavalry, travel day and night, copy the mountain paths, cross the river, and sneak attack Qin Jia's department! Qin Jia is unscrupulous, his attention will inevitably be on the main road, and he would never have thought that our army would send 10,000 light cavalry to attack 700 miles, plus our army's light cavalry came and went like the wind, he could definitely be caught off guard! Count unintentionally with strength, and use cavalry against foot soldiers, although it is 10,000 against 20,000, it is also a sure victory!"

Li Xin was a little surprised and said: "Your Majesty, even so, why don't you send more, only send 10,000 will be a little risky!?"

Fusu smiled: "Can't be too much!" The small number of people is easy to maneuver and easy to hide, and the more is the danger of being exposed, and our army does not have many cavalry now, and it is also of other use, so it can only send 10,000 people. Zhao Tuo, do you dare to go?"

Zhao Tuo said excitedly when he heard this: "Please rest assured, with 10,000 iron horsemen against 20,000 rabble, the general will have the confidence to take Qin Jia's head to see Your Majesty!"

Fusu nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, you immediately take my military order, go to order the troops to be transferred, move quietly that night, and be sure to succeed in the battle!" Whoa!" Zhao Tuo took the order and left!

Looking at the foggy expressions of the generals in the tent, Fu Su smiled and said: "This is the first strategy, and the second strategy is to annihilate Chen Sheng and Wu Guang The main force in Nanyang City!" From tomorrow, our army will transfer 300,000 troops to the north and go straight to Yingchuan, leaving only General Qiang Kui to command the old and weak soldiers to stay in Nanyang to contain Chen Sheng and Wu Guangjun. With the arrogance and dangerous temper of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, seeing that the main force of our army is heading north, leaving only the old and weak soldiers behind, I must have thought that the reinforcements from all walks of life have arrived in Yingchuan, and under the joy and encouragement, I will definitely not be able to hold back, and I want to eat the 100,000 old and weak soldiers and horses left behind in my city, and then wave the army north to attack the main force of our army before and after the Yingchuan reinforcements! Therefore, the two thieves will definitely come up with a trick to attack the camp at night, and our army will take advantage of the opportunity of their main force to attack the camp, and the empty city of Nanyang, the 300,000 troops going north will suddenly kill back the horse pistol, and annihilate them in one fell swoop!"

"Wonderful!" The generals exclaimed. Li Xin suddenly said: "However, how can we let the 300,000 army sneak back to Nanyang City without being discovered by the two thieves Chen and Wu?"

Fu Su smiled: "This plan is easy! Two days ago, our army should slowly march north, traveling 50 miles a day, in order to appease the thief's heart. On the afternoon of the second day, after traveling about 100 miles, a battalion was set up. As soon as it got dark, he asked General Li Xin to lead 200,000 foot soldiers to rush back to the army overnight. To the east of Nanyang Yushui side hidden. The mountains and forests near Yushui are dense and convenient for the army to hide, and it is only thirty miles away from Nanyang. In this way, the two thieves Chen and Wu will inevitably die!

At the same time, contrary to the 200,000 sneaking southward army, Lianqin led the remaining 50,000 elite horsemen and 'wolf teeth' into the Xuanyuan Mountains overnight, entered Songshan Mountain from the mountain trail, and secretly ambushed near Yingchuan, looking for an opportunity to destroy the enemy.

Of course. At this time, there are still 50,000 foot soldiers led by General Shi Lu to deceive and deceive in the virtual camp in the north, and all of my 300,000 troops in the north are here, but if they suddenly stagnate for no reason, it will arouse suspicion, so they can be falsely claimed that they are not accustomed to the water and soil, and they suddenly fall ill and need to recuperate for a few days to hide from the two thief armies of Nanyang and Yingchuan!"

"However, even Your Majesty has 50,000 elite cavalry, but how can he capture Yingchuan City, which is defended by 100,000 heavy troops of the enemy?" Zhang Liang didn't understand again!

Fusu said with a smile: "With a small number of enemies and a cavalry city, it is bound to win by surprise!" Lian's strategy to capture Yingchuan is: to use the Tiger Prison guard General Yingbu to lead 20,000 troops as bait. Leaving the Tiger Prison to the south, he went straight to Yingchuan, attracting the enemy army from Yingchuan to go out of the city and fight with him. Thereupon. When the fierce battle between the two armies was in full swing, my 50,000 iron cavalry suddenly came out. With 30,000 cavalry and Yingbu, the enemy army was defeated out of the city, and the other 20,000 troops cooperated with a group of hidden warriors in Yingchuan City to attack the southern city! In this way, the front and back are pinched. Qi is combined, Yingchuan will be broken! In this way, a three-pronged approach can solve the problem in one battle!"

The generals were taken aback when they heard this. Xin said: "Your Majesty's use of soldiers is really insidious, and he uses strange things everywhere, I really feel sorry for those thieves!" Shi Lu was a little stunned and said, "When did Your Majesty have already ambushed the next batch of warriors in Yingchuan City?"

Fusu thought about it, decided to tell the generals, and said with a slight smile: "This group of warriors is mainly from Momen, Yingchuan is the capital of the old Han, and it is one of the most important strongholds in Momen.

"Momen!?" The generals of the Qin army opened their mouths so much that they were about to stuff a whole chicken! Qiang Kui stared for a long time before he was stunned and said, "Your Majesty, the last general didn't hear it wrong, right!?" Momen is the sworn enemy of my Qin State for generations, how can he listen to His Majesty's orders and cooperate with our army to take the city!?"

The generals nodded like chickens pecking rice, for the people of the Qin State: it is much easier to make them believe that the sow will go to the tree than it is to believe that Momen will listen to the orders of the Qin army, and even Zhang Liang is stunned!

Fu Su was happy, and said lightly: "Of course Momen has to listen to my orders, because I am Momen's 'Juzi', and I have been in office for nearly twenty years!"

"Let's go!" Everyone dropped their jaws, all of them were dumbfounded, and they didn't know what to say! Previously, Momen obeyed Fusu's orders, and the generals thought that there might be some exchange of interests, but now Fusu actually said that he was a former prince and today's Qin Emperor who had been Momen's 'Juzi' for nearly twenty years, and this news was no less surprising than a living immortal falling from the sky!

Li Xin suddenly pinched his thigh, felt very painful, and made sure that he was not dreaming, so he smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, this news is shocking enough, hasn't this Momen always been against my Qin State and advocated something 'peace and stop fighting'?" Why are you now the same master's brother as us!?" Li Xin can't understand why the 'cat' and 'mouse' who are in the same position can become friends!

Fu Su smiled: "It's not surprising, for hundreds of years since the establishment of Momen, it has been seeking the best way to stop martial arts in the world. But all the while, they went around like a fire brigade to put out fires everywhere. The wise men of the Momen gradually realized that their methods of action might be seriously problematic, and they began to look for the right way to solve them.

About 20 years ago, by chance, Lian got acquainted with the former 'Juzi' Fang Zhongxian of Momen. Tell him: Only the unification of the world can have real peace, and promised him that after he ascended the throne, he would definitely be lightly endowed and treat all the people in the world with kindness.

This is the origin of Lian's position as 'Juzi', and the nine brothers and sisters who have followed Lian for many years are all sent by Momen to protect my land and protect the Dharma! Now I understand why Lian was able to mobilize Momen!"

After listening to Fusu's words as if listening to a book from heaven, the generals were probably too stimulated, and their heads were probably crashing, and they were quietly scary in the tent for half a day. After a long time, suddenly there was a loud laugh from the tent: "Hahaha! Wonderful, wonderful! Your Majesty is really a god, Zhang Liang is convinced, completely convinced!"

The generals looked at each other when they heard this, and they also laughed together. Li Xin's expression was a little strange and said: "No wonder in the past twenty years, Momen has rarely been born to confront our army again, it turns out that His Majesty is in command behind his back." It seems that we are going to be brothers and sisters with Momen in the future! Hey, I always feel a little awkward!" The generals immediately laughed again.

The five of them couldn't help but hehe Zhile behind Fusu, and they hugged their fists and said, "Generals, I'm sorry, I've been hiding from everyone for a long time!" In fact, everyone has been a family for a long time! Huh!"

Fusu also smiled: "You'll get used to it!" You see, they have been with Lian and everyone for nearly 20 years, haven't they always been very good! Alright, let's all go back, tomorrow morning, the 300,000 army will pull out the camp and go north!"

"Whoa!" The generals responded, but Zhang Liang was anxious: "Hey, Your Majesty, all the generals have been assigned, where are the ministers going?" Fusu patted his forehead and said with a smile: "Looking at the memory of Lian, I talked too much, and I almost forgot about the military advisor." The ovary is resourceful and strategic, and can strategize thousands of miles away, so stay under Nanyang City and sit with General Qiang Kui! Otherwise, Lian is still a little worried about General Qiang's violent temper!"

The generals burst into laughter again, and pulled out some red-faced Qiang Kui!
