In "The Art of War", "the siege of the division must be que", is one of the eight principles of Sun Tzu's use of troops to fight, in which the meaning of "que" through "gap" is to the effect that it is necessary to leave a gap when encircling the enemy, that is, the siege of three is often used in siege.

In a siege battle, encircling the enemy on all sides is very likely to prompt the enemy general to make up his mind to fight to the death, and if a gap is deliberately left, the enemy may vacillate between flight and death, and at the same time make the enemy soldiers lose their morale. More importantly, besieging the enemy army holding the castle can avoid the pain of siege once the city is abandoned and fleeing, compared to the fact that fighting a fleeing enemy is obviously much less difficult and less costly than fighting an enemy fighting to the death.

A little brainy generals can calculate this account, so "besieging the division must be que" is a common tactic used by the generals of the past dynasties, the Mongols in the siege of the city, they often use the "besiege the division must be que" strategy, the garrison troops out of the city, and then use the advantage of cavalry to annihilate.

Wang Yan besieged Wanxian County, and naturally adopted this strategy, in fact, the Ming army in the east and north of the city, basically did not deploy any troops.

In the Ming military camp, Xia Guoxiang explained Wu Sangui's plan and plate, "hanging sheep beating drums, hungry horses and bells", taking advantage of the Ming army's promise to a truce, slipped away from Beicheng overnight, turned over and escaped from Kuizhou.

After hearing this, Wang Yan and the generals of the Ming army were greatly surprised, this Wu Sangui was really Wang Ba's iron heart, and he actually chose to go to the barren and populated mountains, and he didn't think about it anyway.

The reason why the Ming army did not encircle the north city and the east city was because of these two sides, the east side was the Three Gorges, and if they went into the two ends, they were waiting to starve to death, and the foggy mountains in the north were also vast primeval forests, and it was easy to go in and difficult to get out.

Since Wu Sangui chose this path, Wang Yan could only give him a ride to fulfill his determination to be a clear dog.

Immediately, he ordered his men and horses to secretly explore the terrain outside the northern city in order to set up an ambush, and then let the patrol pay attention to the situation in the city, but not too deliberately, so as not to be detected by Wu Sangui.

Sure enough, it wasn't long before a sentry reported that from time to time there would be a dense sound of gongs and drums in the city, and there was a faint neighing of horses.

Wang Yan listened to it and smiled slightly, only then did he fully believe Xia Guoxiang's words, so he asked the guards to escort Xia Guoxiang to the tent and loosen the tie, so that the generals could know from him the strength of the Guanning tribes and the characteristics of the generals.

Since Xia Guoxiang has already sold Wu Sangui, he can only sell it more thoroughly, and he has to answer all questions about Guan Ningjun's affairs, knows everything, has a very correct attitude, and strives to be lenient.

In the tent, Wang Yan and the generals surrounded the sand table and pointed: "Tomorrow, Dai Zhifan, you will take the two battalions of loyal and brave town control crane and foot fight, and lie behind this mountain, Gao Yigong will lead the three battalions of loyal town Hujie, Huwei and Huben, ambush the east of the city gate, and the Zhenwu battalion of Zhongyi Town will be responsible for entering the battle city~"

When the Ming army was discussing the ambush strategy, Lu Shikui hurriedly came in and reported with his fists in his fists: "Xianggong, the sentry soldiers found that something seemed to be not quite right in the city, and there were faint screams out of the city, and there were very few torches in the city, and after they were extinguished, no one re-lit them. ”

Wanxian is the capital city of Kuizhou, although it cannot be compared with the populated plain state capital, but originally there were more than 4,000 households and more than 30,000 people, but after the outbreak of the war, half of them fled, and there were more than 10,000 people in the city, and there were more soldiers than people.

More than 10,000 people, to kill quietly, it is a challenge for Hu Guozhu, but Wu Sangui has a life, if he does not kill all the people in the city, as soon as the army leaves, the people will definitely report to the Ming army, and the Guan Ning army will be miserable.

In a courtyard, nearly 100 residents of a square were gathered into a courtyard by the Guan Ning army, surrounded by Guan Ning elite soldiers, and the residents looked at these Qing soldiers with knives and guns, and their hearts were terrified.

The old Baozheng in the market stepped forward uneasily and asked, "Official, this is ~"

Before Bao Zheng's words were finished, the officer headed by him was a backhand and cut the old man over, and the surrounding Guan Ning troops immediately rushed up, slashing and slashing one by one with expressionless faces, as if they were chopping wood, and nearly a hundred people were slashed and killed in a moment, and then collected the war knife and went to the next place.

Guan Ning mobilized 10,000 people, blockaded in different divisions, concentrated more than 100 people at a time, slaughtered separately, and carried out two or three hours before slaughtering all the creatures in the city.

The movement in the city will naturally not be noticed by the Ming army in the past, but because of the relationship between Xia Guoxiang, the Ming army still maintains the same state as before on the surface, but in fact it has strengthened the monitoring of the city.

A few people in the tent, after listening to Lu Shikui's report, couldn't help but take their eyes off the sand table, straighten up, and then look at Xia Guoxiang with a brush, which made his heart shake and cry bitterly, he really didn't know this!

"Xianggong, didn't Wu Sangui Mo want to escape in advance?" Chen Bangyan on the side had doubts on his face and was not sure.

Sure enough, at this time, Qin Feng hurriedly rushed into the tent again, and without waiting for everyone to ask, he hurriedly said: "Xianggong, Wu Bing is out of the city." ”

In the north city of Wanxian County, Wu Sangui rode a war horse, stood on the side of the road, looked at more than 25,000 Guan Ning troops, took advantage of the cover of night, and quietly went out of the city.

Wu soldiers by the faint moonlight, left Wanxian, the armor was shining, they left all the baggage, as well as excess food, the soldiers each carried more than 30 catties of rice, pulled more than 50,000 horses, and moved forward lightly.

These rice grains and horses are the guarantee for Guanning to dig through the primeval forests of eastern Sichuan.

Wu Bing actually went out of the city in advance, which caught the Ming generals in the tent a little unprepared, and several generals only thought that Xia Guoxiang had something to hide, so they immediately drew their swords and wanted to kill Xia Guoxiang.

He was so frightened that he hurriedly explained, "Xianggong, the criminal general will never know about this matter, and the criminal general will not know that Wu Sangui will escape in advance." ”

Where would the generals in the tent listen to him, most of them did not believe him, scolded again and again, and asked Wang Yan to kill him. Xia Guoxiang really couldn't explain it, who let him deceive the Ming army once before, he could only kowtow to the ground at this time.

Seeing this, Wang Yan's brows furrowed, he waved his hand to stop the generals, and now it is not a question of whether Xia Guoxiang is hiding it, but not to let Wu Sangui, a boiled duck, fly.

"Xianggong, what now?" The generals quieted down, the Wu soldiers withdrew in advance, and the preparations of the Ming army were not ready, and the generals were all in a hurry, the army had been surrounded for so long, and more than 10,000 people had died before and after, but it could not be without gains.

The war horses of the Guanning army are not only superintended, but also the other towns are salivating, all counting on Wanxian to get rich in the first battle, carve up Guanning, and become a big cavalry household.

Wang Yan locked his eyebrows and pondered for a moment, this time the plan of the Ming army was to force Guan Ning to surrender or annihilate it, eliminate a major force of the Qing army in Sichuan, and completely grasp the initiative, but if Guan Ning escaped and ascended to heaven, with such a cavalry and Haoge cooperation, the Ming army would not dare to set foot in the Chengdu Plain at all.

In this way, the war in Sichuan will enter a tug-of-war, and the main force of the Ming army will fall into Bashu for a long time, which will obviously make the Ming Dynasty fall into passivity, so it is absolutely impossible to let Guan Ning escape safely, Wang Yan immediately stood up suddenly, slapped a palm handsome case, made all the generals look at him, and then ordered loudly: "Wang Shixiu, Yuan Zongdi, you two, immediately do your best to pursue the people, be sure to pester Wu Sangui, do not let him escape." ”

When the two of them heard this, they suddenly agreed, clasped their fists and saluted, and were about to turn around, but when Chen Bangyan, a staff member, saw this, he hurriedly said: "Wait!" Then he said to Wang Yan: "Xianggong, the army has not yet been prepared, and it suddenly moves at night, and I am afraid that it will be chaotic before the battle." ”

The ancient army was not suitable for night battles, mainly because it was difficult to organize and could not be commanded, so it was common to see thousands of people attacking the camp and defeating tens of thousands of horses.

At the moment, the preparations of the Ming army are not yet ready, if it is broad daylight, it is enough to chase it directly, but now that it is dark, it is very difficult to mobilize on a large scale.

Wang Yan listened, but did not change his mind, looked at the two generals standing, and said resolutely: "It is to be chaotic, the prime minister carries the loyal and loyal and brave people of the two towns and horses to not move, and press the formation for the two of you, you just lead people to rush and fight, don't care about the chaos, as long as you can rush into the Wu soldiers, Wu Sangui has more than 20,000 people, there is no reason not to be chaotic, once there is chaos at night, it is difficult for us to organize, and the same is true for the Wu soldiers!" ”
