Wei Hu laughed out loud after hearing this, and after laughing for a while, he said loudly: "Okay! It is really my fifth son of the pillar of Wei State. We have a clear conscience, because we did the best of a Wei soldier, so we die without regrets! To die without regrets, let's toast! As he spoke, he raised the water bowl in his hand and gestured to Wei Yiyao!

The next day, the twenty-third. The Qin and Wei armies did not make any movement on the frontal battlefield in Dushan, but concentrated their energies on the battlefield on the side.

After a night's rest, the Wei army transferred 1,000 men from other units to form two complete divisions of 4,000 men, led by two division commanders under Zhang Bao, and rushed to the flank battlefields on the western and eastern fronts at the end of the day. Their mission was simple: to learn from the Qin army to concentrate superior forces, to encircle and attack the mountains occupied by the Qin army, and to find an opportunity to annihilate the enemy who came to help. These two division commanders were trained by Zhang Bao, and they have the same fiery personality and combat style as Zhang Bao, and they like to fight hard battles and fight to the death, and the same is true for the sergeants under them; Therefore, he was transferred by Wei Yi to suppress the tactical attack of the Qin army to encircle the mountain bag.

The commander of the Wei army on the Western Front called Deng Lai, and came to the vicinity of the mountain bag where the Qin army was encircled and attacked to watch the Qin army's battle, and said to the commander of the Western Front who came to watch and coordinate with him: "General! This is a small skill of carving insects. The battle is that there are fewer people and more people, and if you bully the Wei army, you will have a hundred people, and you can't take care of each other. If you believe me, give me this battle. You call someone to come and see! I'm done fighting, you guys will also see it, and then draw the gourd in the same way, are you still afraid of Qin Jun's call? ”

The commander of the Western Front laughed, patted Deng Lai on the shoulder and said, "Okay! After this battle, I invite you to drink! ”

After Deng Lai took over the command, he was not in a hurry to attack or defend, but squatted on the top of the mountain not far away, watching the Qin army attack the mountain unhurriedly. The Qin army could obviously capture this mountain in one go, but in order to attract the Wei army on several adjacent mountain bags to come to help, they just didn't take the mountain. Deng Lai found this flaw at once, called the four brigade commanders under him, pointed to the Qin army that was attacking the mountain fiercely and said, "You four are optimistic!" The purpose of the Qin army was to send reinforcements, not to occupy the mountain. Look! Under the adjacent hills of our army, there are Qin troops in ambush, as long as our army comes out, they will cut off the rear road of our army and use superior forces to encircle and annihilate our army. So, we're going to count what we count. First brigade, you take the people up to the mountain bag on the left. After going up, send fifty sword and shield bearers, many with crossbow arrows. Their task was to lure out the Qin army in ambush and wait for the Qin army to cut off the back road. As long as these fifty people saw the Qin army surrounding, they gathered together, used shields as cover, used crossbow arrows at afar, and swords at close, and one was to defend and wait for reinforcements to come to rescue. Once these fifty people are surrounded, you will take all the people on the mountain and rush down for me!" There are more than 550 of you, and the bigger the momentum, the better. I think the people of our army besieged by the Qin army are at most two hundred. He still had 300 men, and after waiting for our troops on the mountain to rush down the mountain, he took the opportunity to climb up the mountain and occupy the mountain. ”

The commander of the first brigade asked puzzledly: "We all rushed down the mountain, isn't that just letting the Qin army succeed?" ”

Deng Lai smiled: "They are going to die." Second Brigade! You are lying in ambush within thirty steps behind the mountain bag, but don't let the Qin army find out! As soon as the Qin army rushes up the mountain, it will definitely temporarily relax its vigilance, and you will rush up the mountain for me, annihilate the Qin army in one fell swoop, and avenge General Zhang! ”

When the two brigade commanders of the Second Brigade and the First Brigade heard this, they straightened up as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and shouted: "Yes! ”

The two brigade commanders of the third and fourth brigades quit and shouted angrily: "Division commander! What about us? We're just going to watch? ”

Deng Lai laughed and scolded: "Little mongrel! Lao Tzu said that you are all right? Listen to Lao Tzu! Your two brigades, like the two of them, also went with Lao Tzu to attack the mountain bag on the left. The Qin army's methods are all the same, so you are also like the first brigade and the second brigade, go and fight Lao Tzu hard! ”

The four brigade commanders immediately shouted: "Yes! It's guaranteed to make you enjoy watching. ”

Deng Lai scolded: "Little bastards! You guys have a good time, you want Lao Tzu to do it? No way. When you are fighting vigorously, you will definitely let the Qin army, which is attacking the mountain pack, think that the treacherous plan has succeeded, and will get carried away and attack the mountain. At this time, Lao Tzu took a hundred guards and took the opportunity to annihilate the Qin army attacking the mountain in one fell swoop. If this battle is not wrong, at least more than 500 Qin troops can be annihilated. So, the little mongrels listened to Lao Tzu: If that one goes wrong, I'll take off that one's head and use it as a night pot. ”

The four brigade commanders grinned and touched their heads, and then ran away. Deng Lai stood on the hill and waited to watch the play.

First of all, the Qin army on the right was fooled. Seeing fifty Wei troops rushing down the mountain, he was overjoyed, and as soon as the Wei army came down to the foot of the mountain, he shouted hula and cut off the back road of the Wei army, and then nearly two hundred Qin troops surrounded the Wei army, and did not guard against the Wei army on the mountain behind him. After the Qin army surrounded them, they did not attack, and the Wei army, which was gathered with the hedgehogs, shouted to persuade them to surrender, thinking that as soon as they shouted, the Wei army would obediently lay down their weapons and go to eat beef, just like yesterday.

The Qin army on the left is more shrewd than the Qin army on the right, and after seeing the fifty Wei troops rushing down from the mountain, they were about to cut off their rear roads, but the leader of the team found that these Wei troops were all short weapons, so they did not act immediately, but wanted to see it. What he thought was: Anyway, you are in my bowl, eat early and late, and there is nothing wrong with being careful. Deng Lai, who was standing on the mountain and watching, took a look: It's bad, the Qin army has discovered his intentions, and there are really masters in the Qin army, so he called the messenger, pointed to the left and said: "You run over quickly, tell them, the Qin army has discovered our intentions." Let them take advantage of the situation to attack the Qin army in Gongshan from behind, and don't hesitate. As soon as we hesitate, our affairs are over. ”

When the messenger heard this, he became anxious and ran away. Deng Lai knew in his heart that it was impossible to annihilate the Qin army on the left. Just focus on the right side with peace of mind. In fact, the left and right sides are less than a mile apart, but they are blocked by the extension of the soil bag at the foot of the three mountains, which cannot be seen at the bottom of the mountain, but can be seen clearly from the mountain.

Deng Lai saw the Wei army on the mountain on the right, shouting in unison! All the Wei troops, in a chaotic mess, rushed down the hill less than three hundred paces away, trying to rescue the besieged fifty Wei troops. And the Qin army, which surrounded the fifty Wei troops, had not yet discovered the number of Wei troops who came to help, and it was not the same thing, so they only sent less than a hundred people and turned around to guard against the Wei army.
