Chapter 374: Siege and Reinforcement
Learning classic battle examples, experiencing Bai Dong's strategy, such a tall thing is naturally what Pang Ying has to do, ordinary soldiers don't have this awareness, whether it's the Zhao army on Handan City, the Wei army besieged under the city, and the soldiers of the Qin army who just won a big battle don't have such thoughts, everyone is looking forward to this year's Mid-Autumn Festival.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is a day of reunion, and even the most belligerent generals will die down on this day to let the soldiers recuperate. The Zhao army and the Wei army would even toast each other across the city wall, 'Dry this bowl, tomorrow Lao Tzu will go to the city and cut off your head to play tricks?' "Come on, come on, Lao Tzu kicked you down to the city, and those who broke their arms and legs are not allowed to call their mothers." ’
It's really happy to be happy in suffering, as early as yesterday, Lao Qin transported a lot of pigs and sheep wine from the waterway, and the water master of Chu helped a lot; In addition to these wine and meat, there is also a new thing called 'moon cake', which was invented by Bai Dong last year, with sugar almond filling, Chudi red bean filling, mutton and pork filling, and duck egg filling, which is much more delicious than the traditional Tang cake, not only everyone in the Qin army has a share, but even those Wei soldiers who were released back to China were also shared. It's not enough to just give moon cakes, the Qin people also gave them three days' share of food for them to eat and drink on the road, if it weren't for the fact that the concept of country in this era was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, Qin and Wei's hatred was too deep, and some Wei soldiers wanted to stay in the Qin army. This general Baizi treats his soldiers so generously, not to mention his own people, with this compassion and love for soldiers like children, he is better than that prince Shen.
These Wei soldiers left with moon cakes, and Qin did not suffer any losses, and returned to their homes and countryside with them. The news of Mu Ziya's defeat could no longer be hidden. By then, 10,000 mouths had opened their mouths to state the fiasco. No one can hide it, and the confidence of the Wei people will be greatly hit even if it is not defeated.
Wei Shen, who seems to be calm, will become more cautious and cautious, in fact, it is better for him to become a turtle, the more the enemy cowers and is cautious and can't let go, the easier it is to carry out the movement war, looking at the military mud plate in the tent, a bolder plan gradually took shape in Bai Dong's mind.
Childe reverently opened his mouth and stared blankly at the fall of a dozen eagles outside the tent. The soldier in charge of receiving the information immediately pouted his ass and ran in with the letter and newspaper like a rabbit, and then Bai Dong opened the letter and newspaper one by one, read it aloud, and pulled out the blue flag representing the Wei army on the clay plate and put them in the designated position one by one. The movement of the Wei army's troops, and the general's intentions, immediately jumped on this mud plate.
"I have long heard that Wei Shen is more addicted to being a general than being a prince, and he once wrote a book "Ten Articles of Fan War", thinking that he was a great military book, but unfortunately the number of burns is limited. And it doesn't sell at all."
Bai Dong smiled, pointed to the several Wei troops that had been mobilized on the mud tray and said, "Let's take a look." The five armies of Wu Jia, Wei Feng, Chang Yuan, Han Qing and Wei Shen are now stationed in Changping and Cheng Kuang as the center, looking at Daliang from afar, even Wei Tu, the army responsible for logistics and baggage, is also moving slowly along the line from Daliang to Changping. Wei Shen is not stupid, he knows that the Wei army is inconvenient to move with heavy armor and chariots, and it will not be able to catch up with us, once it is mobilized by our army, it will reveal flaws, so he will concentrate the army in two major towns, not only taking into account the southern soil of Wei State, but also being able to rush to the aid of Daliang at any time, if our army is looking for its decisive battle, it will inevitably be surrounded and divided by it, if our army does not find its decisive battle, it will be difficult for more than 100,000 people to make any achievements, at most they will run around in some unimportant areas, and they are no different from thieves."
"In this way, there will be no place for our army's movement warfare, so will it be impossible to change the movement into a fortified position?"
Gongzi Qian frowned, when he won the company, he was also a general in the perennial Prancing Horse Army, and he could naturally see how powerful the sports warfare advocated by Bai Dong was, but this method of warfare also had a huge shortcoming. After all, this is in the Wei State, the Qin army has no rear support, and it is always impossible to last long just by relying on the Chu State Sailors to help transport some supplies, and once the army penetrates into the Wei territory, the Chu army will be beyond the reach of the whip even if it wants to help.
Wei Shen is actually not given in vain, the reason why this prince of Wei, who loves military affairs, failed to shine is because he was covered up by Pang Juan, in fact, when it comes to the use of soldiers, he is also a qualified general, and he is a small military strategist; With this talent, although he feasted and sang in Changping City, he could also see the weakness of sports warfare at a glance, although Mu Ziya's army was destroyed, he still had more than 300,000 people in the six armies, which was still twice the size of the Qin army.
Che Yingzi'an was also frowning, these days they have all become Bai Dong's 'fanatics', studying the essence of Bai Zi's 'sports warfare' day and night, who dares to question it a little, immediately turned on a bad face, but at this moment, Wei Shen's move 'turtle potential' shook his confidence, and after thinking about it, there seems to be no good way to deal with it, and they can't help but look up at Bai Dong.
"You have only seen the changes in Wei Shen, but you have not seen the greatest danger to our army"
Bai Dong pointed his finger and said: "The five armies of Wei are all moving closer to Changping and Cheng Kuang, and the only army of Pang Cong is still staying near Anling and not going to Fan Bo's intelligence office has not been accurately reported, but in my estimation, Pang Cong is independent of the Wei army, first, because he and Wei Shen are not in agreement, it is difficult to integrate into the Wei Shen line, and second, because Wei Shen does not object to him leading the army to maneuver outside, after all, in the Sixth Route Army, his army is the most capable of fighting, not only has an army of 80,000, but also has 30,000 soldiers personally trained by Pang Juan, It is very difficult for our army to eat it in one bite. ”
"With Pang Cong's army, the movement of our army in the area west of Changping Chengkuang will be restricted, and if it is a decisive battle with Wei Shen, it will inevitably be attacked by him from behind, which will be even worse; For the sake of today's plan, if our army wants to open up the situation in Weitu, it must first eat the onions! Gongzi looked at the mud tray with sparkling eyes, and suddenly looked up at Bai Dong.
"No! Although there are 150,000 people in our army, there are unused 'secret weapons' of the public losers, and there are new 'steel arrows' from the iron battalion, but it will take at least half a month to ambush and lure the enemy if you want to eat the elite of Pang Onion. And even if you surround Pang Onion, if you can't destroy it within three or five days. It is inevitable that he will be attacked by Wei Shen from behind! And so it goes. Our army will be defeated! ”
Cha Young is as belligerent as Zigishi. But it is not as resourceful as Zi'an, and he is only a pious horse. Winning piety's plan was so bold that he had to oppose it.
"Pang Cong must be beaten, in fact, the Wei Wushu trained by Pang Juan himself is not so terrifying, not to mention that there are only 30,000 people? However, if you want to fight Pang Onion, you must have enough time, three or five days will not work, how about fifteen days? We now have 'secret weapons' made by male losers, and 'steel arrows' that can pierce three layers of thick armor. If you can't take Pang Onion, then you don't have to think about encircling Wei to save Zhao, how good is it to directly ask the people of Chu to take us back to Qin? ”
Bai Dong stared at the clay tray tightly, and that bold plan gradually became perfect in his heart. However, this time Xu Sheng is not allowed to lose, after eating the Pang Cong army, the Qin army can completely grasp the initiative on the battlefield of Wei, but if it can't be eaten, I am afraid that even the opportunity to escape back to Qin will be gone.
"How is fifteen days possible? Even if Wei Shen set off from Changping, it would only take seven or eight days to reach Anling, and I did not agree with the general's plan this time. ”
Che Ying shook his head again and again, he was the only general in the Qin State who had led a hundred thousand people except for the Bacterium Reform and Ying Qian, so he naturally knew how troublesome this kind of army movement was. Even the 'fast movement troops' built by Bai Dong with his heart would be difficult to complete the encirclement of Pang Cong within three days, and Pang Cong was not a fool. Will they be besieged?
"Who said that it was in Anling to fight Pang Onion? What if we set the battlefield on the chasm south of the girder? ”
Bai Dong smiled and pointed to the north, which was the capital of Wei, and to the south was the chasm that had only begun to be excavated last year; After Wei Ying moved the capital to Daliang, in order to communicate the convenience of water conservancy between the north and the south, he spent a lot of effort to dig the chasm in 360 BC, and now a year and a half has passed, but the chasm is still a semi-finished product, and it will become muddy and difficult to walk in the rainy season, such terrain can barely adapt to the fast movement troops of Lao Qin, and it is extremely unfavorable for the Wei army with heavy armor.
"Girder!"
The generals in the tent glared at Bai Dong, suspecting that this person was completely insane. But seeing Bai Dong leisurely took a piece of moon cake and chewed it in his mouth, it seems that there is nothing wrong with his head? The box of monthly passes was stuffed with lard and almonds, and it was said that it was made by the general's bitter wine lady and sister-in-law, and he treated it like a treasure and didn't give it to anyone!
"It can't be! The army going deep into the Liang is equivalent to sending the sheep into the tiger's mouth, this is the Wei State, not the Wei State! Once Wei Shen cut off the way back, our army will not have to rescue Zhao State, I am afraid that we will have to ask for help from other countries in turn" Gongzi Qian Khan is in a hurry, and he must stop this crazy boy, otherwise he will kill hundreds of thousands of Qin troops.
"Truncated return? If I can cut off my way back, why can't Pang Cong break my uncle in the first place? Bo Gongzi still hasn't comprehended the essence of sports warfare, the whole army is in the north and south at every turn, regardless of the gains and losses of one city and one place, there is no obstacle in the hearts of the generals, who else can cut off my hundreds of thousands of troops from returning? I'm not afraid of Wei Shen coming, I'm afraid that he won't come! ”
Bai Dong smiled slightly: "Daliang doesn't have many soldiers now, Pang Juan and Long Jia attacked Zhao and took away three or four hundred thousand troops, Wei Shen went south and took away another four hundred thousand, and then removed the border defense troops everywhere, how many soldiers are available in Wei State, which is known as a million armor, is there still a lot of available soldiers?" I don't think the defenders of Daliang will exceed 30,000! ”
"No, it's still too risky! Let's not talk about how to secretly transfer the army to the girder, even if we get to the girder, we can't defeat it! It took five years to build Daliang City alone, there are cities and gates in the city, and there are 30,000 troops, but there are only 3,000 people, and it is extremely difficult to fight down. My general, Lao Qin, has too thin a foundation, but he can't afford to toss you like this. ”
"Who said the girder was going to be laid? As Bo Gongzi said, Wei is not a defense country, even if we desperately lay down the Great Liang, we will not be able to defend it, so our army has only one purpose in besieging the Great Liang. ”
Bai Dong glanced at the generals and said slowly: "Besiege the city and send reinforcements!" ”
Siege for reinforcements?
The generals listened and looked at each other, what kind of new tactics is this? (To be continued......)
