Sure enough, after Wei Ran heard Bai Qi's plan, his reaction was even stronger than Bai Hui's fried hair, and he shouted loudly:

"Seven cities, you are also crazy."

If Wei Ran hadn't been numb in his legs, he would have jumped up.

"Marquis, even if Sun Tzu is reincarnated and Sun Bin leads the army, we are confident that we can easily win five cities and have a chance to win seven cities. Moreover, this is still in the case of the Korean army, if it is only the Wei army, we are confident that we will win the five cities. ”

Bai Hui was full of confidence, and Wei Ran's heart was beating when he listened.

Wei Ran moved his body and pulled Bai Hui to sit beside him: "You tell me." ”

"This move, Sun Tzu said in the Art of War, to people, but not to people. To say arrogantly, Bai's Art of War says that this trick is called encircling the point to send reinforcements, and the intention is to ambush, ambush, and ambush again, until the Wei army has no vital strength, and until the Wei army has begun to doubt life, and then deal with the city. ”

"This trick." Wei Ran also read the Art of War, but he had never heard of it.

Listen to Bai Hui again.

"Leader of the army, I heard that a city was attacked by a Qin army with the same strength, will you send troops to rescue it?"

"Yes!" Wei Ran nodded.

Bai Hui asked again: "To rescue the emergency, it must be a rapid march, if there is an ambush on the road, then the rescuers will only think that this is to prevent them from saving, then there are two ways, one is to forcibly break through, and the other is to find a way to get out of the battle line and detour to rescue." What does the Marquis think? ”

"You're right."

"Forced breakthrough, turned into our army defending, the enemy attacked, the defenders with ease and work plus the fortifications and barriers prepared in advance have a great advantage. If they change course, won't they be afraid that I'm a serial ambush? We ambush, ambush and ambush? ”

"Hiss......" Wei Ran gasped.

Bai Hui had already persuaded Wei Ran, and Bai Hui's steady grasp of the five cities seemed to be indeed nine out of ten.

Wei Ran thought for a while and said, "Even if the reinforcements sent by the Wei State are fast, they will be two months later, and if they are slow, they will be three months. During this period, it was really up to your brothers to torture the defenders of Hedong. Replace it with Ben Hou, and when you react, you will succeed in at least five cities. Not to mention ......"

Wei Ran laughed: "If you don't explain, Ben Hou won't be able to react, and he will always send troops to rescue." will be ambushed, ambushed and ambushed by the two of you, and beaten until Ben Hou doubts his life. Hahaha! ”

"Yes, that's it."

"But, what if the Wei army arrives?" Wei Ran asked again.

Bai Hui smiled: "Ambush is such a useful method, why only use it once, keep ambushing him, a hundred people can ambush, shoot a few rounds of arrows and run, torture the Wei army to the bitterness, and then choose a favorable terrain for a decisive battle, before they can stand firm, we will fight him." ”

Wei Ran shook his head: "What if the 200,000 army comes?" ”

Bai Hui was full of confidence: "I won't wait for his 200,000 troops to arrive, I have a trick." ”

"Trick?" Wei Ran was curious.

Bai Hui nodded very seriously: "It's a trick, I'll go to Xianyang to take the three cities here, and ask the Marquis to save me." ”

Wei Ran almost didn't mention it in one breath and fainted, pointing at Bai Hui for a long time without saying half a word, his chest hurt because of this poor breath.

Finally relieving his strength, Wei Ran laughed again: "Okay, you're right, your trick is indeed a trick." Ben Hou is served, Ben Hou is convinced. ”

Wei Ran stayed in Dingyang for five days, and then it was not Bai Hui alone, but the two brothers Bai Qi and Bai Hui analyzed the military situation and the plan with Wei Ran.

Wei Ran slept less than two hours every night, and he had to make all the details completely clear.

Although he didn't understand some tricks, after Bai Qi explained, Wei Ran understood that Bai Qi was already a famous general with this plan, and even if he was an ordinary general, even if he had this strategic plan in hand, he would not be able to command such a complex battle.

Wei Ran stayed in Dingyang for a total of six days, and hurried to Xianyang.

After hearing this plan, King Qin and Empress Dowager Xuan immediately began to prepare food, and then secretly recruited an army to be ready to fight at any time.

Among them, the Empress Dowager Xuan said: "Add a little more soldiers and horses to them, and since they want to fight, they will fight with the momentum of my Great Qin." ”

Dingyang.

Bai Qi continued to train soldiers and horses, while Bai Hui boosted morale and stockpiled military supplies.

Winter turned to spring, and Bai Qi stopped operating the army for January, and the whole army went to help with farming, except for the necessary defense personnel.

In mid-March, Bai Hui received news that Qin and Han would join the alliance, and the level of the alliance was very high, and the king of Qin and the king of Han would meet and join the alliance.

But Bai Hui came here with a helper.

Win.

After seeing Bai Hui, Ying Kui said straight to the point: "35,000 elites, will come to Dingyang secretly in batches, I don't know how to march and fight, the king asked Benjun to come to give the sword, if anyone does not listen to the order, there is a trace of neglect of the military order, he must be killed first." ”

"Thank you, Gao Lingjun."

Ying Kui asked: "What about Bai Qi?" ”

Bai Hui replied: "My brother secretly crossed the river to Hedong County, he wants to personally survey the terrain again, and there are twenty-seven military marquis with him, and there is no room for loss in this battle." ”

"Good. What the king means is that the 150,000 army has been assembled in Xianyang, and this time even if the fighters are good, they can't pass through Jiucheng, Jiucheng is still within the range that South Korea can bear, and it is difficult to guarantee that Han and Wei will not join forces if they exceed ten cities. The Qin State still needs time to recuperate, occupy nine cities, and let the marquis talk about how to return a few cities, and what is left is enough. ”

"Yes, the king is wise." Bai Hui understands that fighting a war in this era of the Warring States period still depends on what all countries in the world think.

Fighting, winning, and occupying the city, but there must also be a degree.

Ying Kui said: "Supervising the war, in fact, there is another layer of intention, if your brother kills the red eye, I will use the royal order to seize your brother's military power, and the nine cities are the upper limit." ”

"I understand that eating as much as you have a big belly, and eating too much can hurt people."

Ying Kui nodded with satisfaction: "That's it, there is a saying ahead, if South Korea reacts wrongly, if you want to cease the war, your brother must immediately order a truce." ”

"Yes, the king's order is a military order." Bai Hui dared to have half a rebuttal.

Fighting there, how to fight, and what the strategic intention is, this is a major matter in the court, and it cannot be said that it is enough to say that there is no military order in a foreign country.

What's more, Bai Hui hopes that the scale of the first fierce battle after his own crossing is still a little smaller.

Let's talk about King Qin.

King Qin and King Han met in alliance, and the two sides talked very happily.

Back at Hangu Pass, King Qin and Wei Ran were still celebrating this alliance, but Wei Ran said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that another royal decree will be issued, don't let the two brothers kill too hard, after all, King Han has just met the alliance, it is not good to turn his face, and he will be ridiculed by the world." ”

"Send it when you go back to Xianyang."

King Qin returned to Xianyang, but received a letter signed by Ying Kui and Bai Hui.
