Chapter 177: Surround but Don't Fight
"General Bao, Zhang Dali has been surrounded by us, but he will not surrender, and he also killed General Zhao, who led the army. The enemy and the enemy fight to the death, and each has a winner or loser. The soldier reported Tian Yu.
Tian Yu thought for a while and said: "Tell the front army, surround Zhang Dali to me, surround but not fight!" ”
Soldier: "No! "Leave immediately.
"This!" Tian Yue said: "General, Zhang Dali is Ran Fei's arm, why don't you shoot him to death!" To prevent future troubles! ”
Tian Yu: "No, if we kill Zhang Dali, Ran Fei may use all his strength to fight us to the death, if we are dragged by Ran Fei here, what will Zhao Hao do?" Linzi is lost, and there is nothing. ”
Tian Yue: "Understood, the general means to use Zhang Dali as a bait, as long as he is in our hands for a minute, Ran Fei will be jealous and will not attack us." ”
Tian Yu: "That's right! It's just that I didn't expect that this Zhao State would be so despicable and actually help Ran Fei rebel! The plan is really good, if it helps Ran Fei gain a firm foothold in the north, then the Qi country will be divided into two, and once the Qi country is divided into two, it will no longer be so strong. Not only will it not become a threat to Zhao Guo, but it may also become the meat in his mouth! ”
Linzi, after Han Yu burned the granary in the middle of the night, he immediately joined the troops of the Beichenglou, and the troops were united, and immediately evacuated to the north. Han Yu took more than 3,000 people, like chickens in soup, and was chased from midnight to noon the next day, and occupied and retreated. He was driven to a barren mountain by Tian Dan, because Tian Dan brought out the cavalry, not accustomed to field warfare, and the barren mountain was very steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and after chasing for most of the night, people were sleepy and horses were scarce, and there was not much grain and grass, so they could only surround the mountain, and did not dare to attack. With the arrival of 10,000 troops outside Linzi City, the barren mountain was surrounded by water, and not even a fly could fly in. Han Yu looked at the more than 10,000 troops under the mountain and was worried. Although they brought dry food, it was only ten days' supply, and they fought and retreated along the way, losing more than 1,000 people. At this moment, the total number of troops is less than 2,500 men. When the soldiers below are finished, it is estimated that they will have to finish all the battles if they can't withstand a few battles.
And at this moment, in Lucheng in the south, Yuan Qi received a secret order from Ran Fei.
Yuan Qi untied the fire paint, opened it and saw that there were words written on it: "Pour all your forces, unite with Zhao Hao's soldiers, and attack Linzi!" Lu Cheng gave up to Zhao Guo! ”
Yuan Qi said: "Is this to make me give up Lu Cheng?" Yuan Qi showed the secret order to his brothers, and the brothers were not convinced: "Why is he, it took us so much effort to take down Lu Cheng, and now we say that we will let it go?" And what about our brothers who died outside the city? ”
"That's right! Just give up like this, how can you be worthy of your dead brother? ”
All the generals didn't agree with Ran Fei's words, but Yuan Qi said: "After so many years, don't you still trust Ran Fei?" When did he not plan for it? ”
As soon as Yuan Qi said this, everyone immediately stopped talking, but a general stepped forward and said: "General, it's better for us to stay here with 5,000 soldiers, there are 100,000 troops inside and outside Linzi City, and all of them are the remaining elite troops of Qi State, and now although Zhao Hao helps us attack Linzi, but Tian Yu will definitely come back to help, in this way, there are nearly 200,000 troops in Linzi, it is impossible to fight down, and if you can't beat it down at that time, you can retreat." ”
"That's right! This method number! ”
"Yes, I do!"
Yuan Qi thought for a while, but still insisted on Ran Fei's plan: "No! We must not disrupt Ranfei's deployment. Let's do it! Everyone go down and prepare, General Zhao Hao has crossed the Yellow River and is about to arrive in Lucheng. ”
Although the generals were not convinced, the military order was like a mountain, and they still clenched their fists: "No! ”
Tian Dan personally pressed the formation, commanded the army to attack Han Yu, Han Yu had a certain field experience, and took advantage of the terrain to repel Tian Dan's three attacks one after another, both sides had casualties, but Tian Dan was the prime minister, and it was impossible to spend it here all the time, so he handed over the army to his generals, and ordered: "Trap him for me, there is no food, see how long he can last." ”
General: "No! ”
Tian Dan returned to Linzi and began to deal with state affairs, the early dynasty.
King Qi: "Now, the grain and grass have been burned and the losses are heavy, do you have a good plan?" ”
Tian Dan: "Qi my king, first of all, the granary was burned because I didn't get reinforcements when I went back to the palace to transfer troops, if there are reinforcements, not only can I save most of the grain, but also wipe out the thieves, so Tian Yuan, who led the troops in the palace at that time, should be punished!" Otherwise, the Fa will not be rectified, and if this continues, then in the future, the private soldiers of each family will support themselves and will not obey the king's orders. ”
After Tian Dan finished speaking, he hated Tian Yuan, and then returned to his position, Tian Yuan was immediately unhappy when he heard this, but there was a pitiful expression on his face, and he immediately stood up: "Your Majesty, let the ministers report it." ”
When King Qi heard Tian Dan's words, he was originally very unhappy with this Uncle Wang, but when he saw him crying, he felt very pitiful, so he said, "Uncle Wang, say it!" ”
Tian Yuan cried and said: "King, the thieves are coming, we resist, guarding the palace, waiting for the king to return, the thieves fought several times and failed to take the palace, and then General Tian Dan led the troops to chase the thieves, I was entrusted by him, to guard the palace, at that time there was a soldier who said that General Tian Dan was a personal soldier, to transfer troops to the granary reinforcements, but I was afraid!" Fear is pretended by thieves. We are even more afraid that if the soldier really transferred the elite of the palace, then the palace will not be guarded, if it is really the enemy's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, then today, not only will the king not see his subordinates, but even the palace may be in ruins. ”
