Section 419 Loyalty to the Prime Minister and Meritorious Service Again
Just when Wang Di was shocked that Tian Buli was under Bai Hui's control, several generals of the Wei army came to Wang Ji's camp.
"General Wang, I don't understand why I asked the dead soldiers who raided on the northern front to do something that burned grain but failed."
Wang Yi didn't look back, he was also thinking about how to convince General Wei that he couldn't tell them that Tian Buru, the minister of Zhao State, was our people, and he couldn't let him die, nor could he be heavily blamed by Zhao State.
Wang Yi paused for a moment before saying, "I would have been afraid that King Zhao would do something too crazy. If Zhao Jun had no military rations at all, what do you think would happen to Zhao Jun? ”
One of the Wei generals said: "It is impossible to retreat. ”
"Yes!" Wang Yi nodded: "It is absolutely impossible to retreat, King Zhao will be annoyed and angry, so what will happen?" ”
At that moment, there was a Wei general who took over the topic: "I will cross the river, I am an important town in Guiling of Wei State, where there is plenty of grain and grass." If Guiling is besieged again, then there will only be a death battle against Chu and Zhao, and there is no way to retreat. ”
Another Wei general also said: "Yes, Zhao Guozhongmu is only more than a hundred miles away, the grain and grass are burned out, they endure it, and the expedited transportation is three days, but if the king of Zhao is angry, crossing the river is a step, and it is also possible that the army will go straight to Lechang, which is our last line of defense, if it is lost, Ye will have nothing to defend." ”
Wang Yi breathed a sigh of relief: "Right now, I didn't push King Zhao so tightly, so I immediately went to implement the team's attack plan, and kept making trouble for Zhao Jun along the way, remember to fight for a while and retreat." Harassment is predominant. ”
"No!"
"Hold on for ten days, even if you retreat, it will be good for us. Just wait for the Daliang defenders to defeat the soldiers and horses of Chen Yi of Chu State and relieve the siege of Suiyang, then they can fight a decisive battle with the Zhao army. ”
The crowd quickly retreated.
Decisive battle?
Wang Yi shook his head, he finally understood why Bai Hui said that it was not easy to drag Zhao Jun for ten days, and it was very difficult to drag for fifteen days. Because the combat effectiveness of the Wei army is far inferior to the Zhao army.
If you want to rely on exquisite tactics, there is almost no strategic depth north of the river, and the two armies have no place to make a detour except for a hard encounter, and naturally there are not many tactics that can be used.
Wang Di was very helpless, if he had 50,000 elite Qin troops in his hands right now, he could scold Zhao Jun.
But no.
The next day, King Zhao was stunned.
He never expected that the military rations of the troops on the Eastern Front were completely destroyed, and the Wei army sent dead cavalry to burn the grain desperately.
It's just two hundred cavalry, how can they burn all the grain and grass.
"Behead, behead the leader of the army for the widow." King Zhao was furious.
Tian Buli had already come over overnight, and he only burned a little bit of grain and grass here, that is, a few hundred quintals, but about 100,000 arrows were burned, and the loss was not big.
Strictly speaking, Tian Buli is meritorious, and it is a great meritorious.
After Tian Buli entered the house, a civil official asked for instructions: "Your Majesty, there is also Dr. Tian How to deal with it." ”
"Tie up, take it back to Handan and put it in prison first. Except for the commander of the rear army, all the people were tied up by the widow and escorted back to Handan. ”
Tian Buli stepped forward: "The king is angry, now is the time to employ people, so they can make meritorious contributions." The top priority at the moment was to suspend the attack on Yecheng, transport part of the grain and grass from the northern front, and then immediately transport grain and grass from Zhongmu. An army shall not be left without bread for a day. ”
King Zhao wanted to fight angrily, but he knew that what Tian Buli said was correct.
"According to what Xiangguo said, you can do it."
"No!" A few courtiers around King Zhao hurriedly retreated.
"Report ......"
If there is a military report coming in, the military newspaper can be sent directly to King Zhao, and no one can stop it.
"Newspaper. Wang Shang, more than a dozen of the battalions scattered by the Eastern Front to search for villages reported that they had encountered an ambush, and the Wei army had troops in ambush in the mountains, woods, and river valleys, wherever they could hide their troops. After the first blow, if our army is in confusion, they will come out and kill, and if the first blow is not successful, they will quickly retreat. ”
"What?" King Zhao was taken aback.
The soldier continued to report: "There are two battalions to chase the fleeing Wei army, and they are ambushed again, and our army has lost more than 5,000 men and horses. ”
According to Bai Hui's plan, Wang Di asked all the people in the village to retreat, empty the supplies, and burn those who could not be moved.
The Zhao army took the battalion as a unit and sent many hundred-man teams.
These hundred-man teams were searching for villages, looking for villagers, looking for all possible signs of the Wei army. They were ambushed by the Wei army hiding in various locations.
And the Wei army was very cunning, and when the sneak attack was successful, they went together to kill the hundred-man team of the Zhao army.
If the sneak attack fails, flee immediately.
Once the Zhao army chases, it will encounter an ambush again on the way to pursue, and once it is chaotic, the whole army may be annihilated, if it is supported. The Wei army, which was more familiar with the terrain, would flee, even if they threw away their weapons, bows and arrows, etc., and they would flee first.
Tian Buli stepped forward to King Zhao: "Your Majesty, this style of play is definitely not from the Wei State, and no one in the Wei State has been able to lead the army so weirdly." ”
"What do you mean?"
Tian Buli shook his head: "It's hard to say. ”
King Zhao waved his hand to signal to retreat left and right, and then asked Tian Buli: "What does Xiangguo mean, Bai Hui is in Wei State?" ”
"The minister thinks that it may be more than that, I am afraid that Han and Chu are in a lot of trouble at this time. In short, this style of play is definitely not something that these rude martial artists in the Wei State can think of, and there is no Wu Qi in the Wei State. ”
Tian Buli is very serious, and he is expressing his attitude very seriously.
King Zhao nodded silently: "According to Xiangguo, if Bai Hui is in Wei State, then what about Qin Jun?" ”
"The Qin army will not, at most, Bai Hui brought some generals of the Qin army to command the Wei army. But even so, my king must not be guarded against, and Bai Hui's leading army cannot be taken lightly. ”
"Xiangguo is right, the widow regrets not listening to Xiangguo's advice the day before yesterday. According to Xiangguo's words, how to deal with it? ”
Tian Buli was happy in his heart, and his heart was done. As long as you stabilize King Zhao for ten days and don't attack again, then your task will be completed, and then the two armies will face each other, and the victory or defeat will depend on your ability.
Since King Zhao came to ask him what to do, it is not wrong to seek stability at any time.
Tian Buli said: "It's better to send someone to Daliang immediately, this place is not far from Daliang City, just need to explore it." ”
King Zhao stood up and walked back and forth in the house a few times, and King Zhao thought in his heart why Bai Hui was involved and how much saving Wei would benefit the Qin State. However, Tian Buli was right, the generals of Wei State could not come up with such a strange way of fighting.
Thinking of this, King Zhao said: "The meaning of Xiangguo is understandable. ”
"Your Majesty, if the Great Liang is at war, or it has changed banners, it will be the victory of South Korea. On the contrary, how could the Korean attack on Wei suddenly stop, only one person could stop all this. ”
King Zhao nodded solemnly: "Xiangguo is right, this place is very close to Daliang, and the widow is not bad these days." Just wait for Zhongmu's military rations to be sent before making further plans. But you can't just send people to the beam, you have to send more meticulous work. ”
"I'll arrange it."
"Xiangguo has worked hard, Xiangguo has made great contributions in this war, and Xiangguo has worked hard."
