Hebei, more than 100 miles northeast of Ji County, Fangtou. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The camp of the Qin army, which was fortified and fortified, was stationed from the outside to the inside in a circular formation of a defensive posture. On the big tent of the Chinese army, a particularly large red-edged black-bottomed big sword, hunting and drifting, the four big characters of 'car riding general', each with a small car, is extremely eye-catching.

Hu Song was fully armed and undressed for four days. Four days ago, according to the scouts at that time, the imperial court had hurriedly sent Sima Cheng and He Cheng, two generals, leading 20,000 troops, to march north to meet the enemy in advance. Half a day ago, the latest information came that Sima Chengbu was defeated in the initial battle, and now he is setting up a camp in the southeast of Fangtou. Hearing of the defeat of the friendly army, Hu Song immediately ordered the whole army to slow down, adjust the pikemen in the center, and the crossbowmen followed, and then led the light cavalry with Lei Qizhi to swim on the flanks and echo, and waited to move forward.

When Hu Song was about to give the order to make a tentative attack, he was suddenly hit hard by the roundabout Zhao army behind him. Thanks to the Qin army's hundred battles, Hu Song was deep and measured, and in the suddenness, he was not alarmed, so that the rear army became the front army, and retreated to the west, retreated more than 40 miles to the west, blocked the Zhao army's five attacks, and finally stabilized the situation at a small cost of thousands of dead and wounded. At present, the Qin army is divided into two parts, north and south, Hu Song is in the northwest of Fangtou, Sima Cheng is in the southeast of Fangtou, and there are hundreds of thousands of huge Zhao troops in the middle, so there is nothing to do for a while.

Hu Song bent over, staring at the sand table in front of him for a moment, staring at it deadly. He fought, unlike other high-ranking generals, and preferred to use the sand table for research. If time permits, I will do it carefully, imitating the local city landform, and even the mountains and rivers can even be expressed; Time is urgent, and I have to make a sand table, but it is simpler, and it is not enough to put some stones, wood, etc., in short, there must be a concrete performance so that he can see it at a glance.

The current sand table is relatively simple, after all, from encountering the enemy army to retreating and camping, it is only four days, and it is simple to build with some sand, earth and masonry. Hu Song was in front of the sand table, the battle was half an hour, after a long time, his waist and neck were a little sore, even his eyes were a little swollen, he finally straightened up, shook to the side of the tent curtain, raised his eyes into the distance, turned his head and pinched the back of his neck with his hands, but still frowned, thoughtful.

Li Jie, the general of Pingnan, had been standing quietly by the side, but when he saw this, he hurriedly stepped forward and helped Hu Song massage his shoulders and neck, and said respectfully: "Handsome, are you better?" ”

"Well, there is labor, there is labor."

Hu Song came back to his senses, turned his head and smiled gratefully at Li Jie, and asked, "...... Han Ying, tell me, if you are Zhixiong, what should you do next? ”

Li Jie Li Hanying, is Hu Song's old subordinate, since Hu Song transferred to the command of Gao Yue, from the original Yongzhou office, has been following until now, not only his extremely trusted right and left hand, and is alert and resourceful, but also Hu Song's important staff officer when he marched and strategized.

"Don't blame the handsome, the subordinates are really a little confused at the moment. This Zhixiong, this style of fighting in the past was not this way, this time it is a little abnormal. ”

"Hmm. Ben Shuai has also been pondering this question. Zhixiong is one of the three most famous generals among the eighteen cavalry under Shi Le in the past. Among them, the peach leopard is calm and resourceful, Kui'an is cunning and changeable, while Zhixiong is brave and easy to kill, fighting with a intestine, often stumbling to the end with the opponent, belonging to a fierce general who will drop ten times with one force. But right now, he obviously leads the superior force of 200,000 horses, but he is nesting in the fangtou, willing to confront our army from north to south, what is he trying to do? ”

Hu Song raised his hand, stopped Li Jie's grasp, walked to the sand table in a few big steps, looked at it with blazing eyes, and pointed out to Li Jie who was following him: "Here, you see there is still ...... here, no matter what, our army does not occupy a profit." But if we can stop or drag Zhixiong so that he can't go half a step south into Sizhou, we can be regarded as achieving our goal. Thinking about it the other way, Zhixiong is so consumed, what is his purpose? ”

"Also, since ancient times, sending troops to fight, the more people there are, the more problems involved in all aspects, it is very troublesome, it is advantageous to concentrate superior forces, quick battles, and the most taboo to fight a protracted war, Zhixiong is now confronting me, according to him will not make such low-level mistakes, there must be some conspiracy and tricks, this commander still feels that before the enemy's actions are penetrated, it is best to stand still and treat it carefully."

Li Jie nodded frequently: "Yes." This is not simple. His camp is far away from our department, but it is close to the river next to Fangtou, and it happens to use the river to cut off the south Sima Chengsuo, so that our northern and southern armies will not be able to achieve the strategy of simultaneous attack, it seems that he is caught in the middle, in fact, he can calmly guide the north. In addition, he has a large number of troops, and the amount of grain he needs is huge, but the important places are all guarded by his strict soldiers, and our army has tried many times, but he can't cut off his grain route! He's definitely a seasoned veteran. ”

Hu Song looked at the sand table for a long time, didn't know the essentials, and said hatefully: "This kind of rectum suddenly plays twists and turns, it's really a headache!" The current situation is very treacherous......"

Before he finished speaking, the herald outside hurriedly brought in a scout, and before anyone arrived, the voice came first: "Handsome!" Just now, the enemy army suddenly crossed the river and defeated Sima Chengbu, and now our southern army can no longer support it, and has retreated to the area of Luojiabao! ”

Luojiabao is only three miles away from Ji County, and the situation has become urgent. Hu Song was taken aback, stood up suddenly, and said hurriedly: "If Ji County is lost, the enemy will drive into Hanoi, and Luoyang will be in danger!" The situation is like this, everything is closed, and I can't hold it anymore, give orders! The whole army is out of camp and rushes to attack! ”

Domino effect. The commander of the Zhao army, Zhixiong, ordered the deputy general Zhang Raccoon to lead 40,000 strong troops, detour to block Hu Song, and led a large army to forcibly cross the river to suddenly attack Sima Cheng. After Gao Yue got the report, he urgently ordered General Anton Ren Min to lead 20,000 divisions to the east to block the attack, but before the edict was issued, the additional food and salary of the army was sent to Sima Cheng, and the doctor Jin Chong was ordered to lead the rank of general of Pingdong, and 10,000 elites in Beijing were led to Ren Min's backup; He Donggong led his headquarters with 10,000 troops, dispatched troops from Xingyang, and resolutely ensured that Ji County would not fall through a multi-pronged approach.

Several Qin troops, their eyes gathered in Ji County, and discussed the agreed time to attack Zhixiong, but they invisibly fell into the strategy of Zhao State. In the camp of the Zhao army, the deputy general Zhang Raccoon strode into the tent, stretched out his hand and took off the thick pocket, begged for a bowl of water, and shouted to the head of the Zhixiong: "Handsome! The last general went to go in person, so that the Qin army made several concerted moves, and they were all lured by us! ”

"Hehe, it's very good." Although Zhixiong is over sixty years old, his body is still as strong as an ox, and his broad face like a grinding disc is full of red light. He stretched out his fat huge palm, stroked his white and shiny beard, raised his head and smiled: "Before leaving, didn't Your Majesty ask again and again?" Our army of 120,000 seems to be the main force, but in fact it is just a pawn to lure the enemy. Of course, it is best to be able to get through Heluo, if not, it will make all kinds of inexplicable actions to attract the Qin people, the more the better, in short, let them stare at us all the time. ”

Zhixiong Huo Ran stood up: "We have strong troops, and their generation will definitely fight their lives to stop them." But since he lured them all in, he was not afraid to fight a dozen of them. Wouldn't it be best if we could overcome it? But even Gao Yue would not have expected that the ultimate target of this military operation was not Jixian, nor Luoyang, but Xingyang! Hmph, Your Majesty has personally led 30,000 horses at this moment, taking advantage of no one's attention, rushing away, as long as Xingyang is defeated, Qin State is east of the Tiger Prison, and it will quickly lose all the land, at that time, we will take Yanzhou as a basis, Xingyang as a stronghold, and keep making efforts to seek the Tiger Prison. Then attack Hanoi with a partial division, let Gao Yue take care of one and lose the other, for a long time, as long as these two places are occupied by me, then Luoyang will lose the barrier, and it will be at your fingertips! ”

Zhang Raccoon poured down a few large bowls of water, wiped the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile: "There is another point, the handsome man forgot to say." His Majesty personally conquered Xingyang, and he also wanted to raid and capture the traitor Shi Sheng. If you catch him, hehe......"

He didn't say any more, but the hideous and vicious smile on his face said it all.
