Li Cheng first thought that it would definitely not work to deceive in his own name. Because the Han army, out of prudence, would definitely ask himself to lead the army out of the day with his bare hands. If he didn't agree, Han Jun would definitely be suspicious. Moreover, in doing so, it is detrimental to one's own reputation. But if you let your subordinates surrender, there is no such thing as zài.

Whether it is a lieutenant or a captain, the number of cronies they have is limited, and it will take a while to prepare if they want to privately open the door to welcome the Korean army into the city, or create civil strife in the city, and surrender the city. Such reasons are sufficient, and most of the ROK troops are happy to see them come to fruition in order to reduce their losses.

In order not to make the surrender drama seem too abrupt, Li Cheng sent someone to call Wang Meng, the only remaining lieutenant in the city, when the moon was dark and the wind was high, to teach him face-to-face. The next day, a bitter meat trick was staged in the city.

In front of many generals in the army, the main general Li Cheng severely reprimanded Wang Meng, the captain who was unfavorable in defending the city, and the captain Wang Meng complained a few words aggrievedly, and was dragged out by Li Cheng to rebeat the 30 boards, demoted him to 2,500 masters, and made him guilty of meritorious service.

That night, a dead soldier of the Qin army sneaked down into the city during the battle and was captured by the Korean scouts who were lying in ambush outside the city. The dead soldier immediately showed his intention, and the Korean scouts dared to delay, so they immediately covered his eyes and escorted him into the camp.

"Your general plans to surrender the city?" Han Teng put down the book in his hand and asked with a little surprise.

"The villain does not dare to deceive the general! Li Cheng's deception was too great, and my general led the army to fight bloodily in the city, covering more than a dozen wounds. Li Cheng's inconsiderate attitude was fine, but blamed my general for his poor command and too great losses. My general only pleaded a few words. was dragged out and beaten indiscriminately, and was demoted to two or five hundred masters! My general said that the Qin State was already at the end of the road, and he was unwilling to die for the Qin State anymore, and asked the general to take in the criminals who were willing to wait for us and South Korea. Don't seek glory and wealth, but want to saddle the horse before and after the general! The dead man said in a conclusive voice.

Han Teng nodded slightly and asked softly, "How did you successfully sneak out?" ”

"General Qiyu! After my general was heavily reprimanded for thirty military sticks. was forced by Li Cheng's gang to come up to defend the city tomorrow, obviously wanting to kill people with a borrowed knife! Fortunately, my general has also had some prestige in the army over the years, and there are as many as 100 confidants and cronies. Tonight, the two or five hundred lords who defended the city were from the personal guards of our general, and he sympathized with our general, so that the little man was able to report to the general unknowingly! ”

"Tomorrow!" Han Teng muttered hesitantly.

The dead soldier hurriedly burst into tears and said, "I hope the general will have mercy!" Tomorrow all day. All of them are my generals sitting at the head of the city. The general can feint to attack the pass, and when the sky turns dark, my general orders his cronies to open the city gate, and the pass will definitely be taken by the general! ”

"Why not tonight?" Han Teng stared at the dead man's eyes, as if he wanted to see some flaws.

The dead man was righteous and awe-inspiring, not afraid at all, and said generously: "The general doesn't know anything! Although the two or five hundred lords who are guarding the city now sympathize with our generals, they are loyal to Great Qin! I gained his trust under the pretense that my general's plan was to fight for his life and go to Korea alone! If you let him know that my general intends to sacrifice the city. He will not obey his death! ”

Han Teng nodded and asked, "How many troops are there in the city now?" ”

"There are only more than 8,200 people. However, there are still 3,000 old and weak who will arrive tomorrow! The dead man replied without leaking.

"How many armies can your generals influence?"

"Two thousand! At least two thousand! My general said that as long as the Han army can surround the Qin army and then kill Li Cheng, he has an eighty percent hope that he can control the army! In addition, the villain did not dare to hide in the slightest, the Xiongnu army had been repelled by Wang Jian and Qi Gong, and it would not be long before the main force of the Qin State could return to Xianyang! Please also prepare in advance! ”

Han Teng's face changed suddenly, this news is too timely, if the Xiongnu are really defeated, then the Qin State will have enough troops to hold Tongguan, Yaoguan, Ziwu Pass, and Anping Pass, even if the Han army breaks through the defense of the Qin army, I am afraid that it will be powerless, and the best result is that the Qin State will cede land to South Korea and admit its defeat!

"When did you receive this message?" Han Teng asked in a deep voice.

"Just today! Lang Zhong ordered Duke Qi to lead the army to sit in Qi County to prevent the Xiongnu from coming back. Wei Wei Wang Jian led an army of 60,000 and was rushing to Xianyang! ”

Han Teng nodded at this time, and said warmly: "Go back and tell your general, tomorrow we will feint to attack the pass, as long as it is night, he will have people wave torches on the top of the city and open the city gate, we will definitely rush in!" Glory and wealth, countless benefits are waiting for you! Don't let the rumors of this matter leak out, remember to remember! ”

The dead man swallowed his tongue, obviously very moved, and said, "The villain has written it down!" ”

"Someone! Go get ten gold! Han Teng commanded outside the tent again.

Soon, the guards outside the tent walked in with a tray, Han Teng nodded at the dead soldiers of the Qin army, and said with a smile: "These are all rewards for you!" When the city is broken, your benefits will be indispensable! ”

"Thank you, General! Thank you, General! The dead man hurriedly agreed.

"Go! Sue sù your general! After tomorrow, he will be our Korean Hou Ye! I also invited him to meet King Han, and said a few good words for the general in front of King Han! Han Teng quipped.

The dead man agreed one by one and left contentedly.

As soon as the dead soldiers of the Qin State left, Han Teng immediately ordered all the ministers in the army to be recruited to discuss countermeasures. When they heard that the Xiongnu were defeated and the Qin State vacated an army of 60,000, the faces of many generals changed! Although everyone knows that at this moment, Qin Pass, Tongguan, Ziwu Pass, Anping Pass, and Yaoguan are all under the onslaught of the Korean army. As long as the Han army continues to attack like this, the 60,000 or 100,000 troops of the Qin State will be wiped out. But the problem is that the absence of the Xiongnu army has a lot to do with the final casualties of the Korean army. If the news is true, the casualties of the South Korean army can be predicted, and they will be very large, so big that South Korea is completely unacceptable!

Fortunately, the guard of the pass cut off his own arm, and actually forced the captain Wang Meng to rebel in order to survive. Tomorrow night, the South Korean army will be able to conquer the pass! From Lantian to Xianyang, there was not much left of Qin's troops. It is completely possible to divide 20,000 or 30,000 people to attack Ziwu Pass, Anping Pass, and Tongguan Pass, and wait to join the Korean army in Hanzhong and Sanchuan, 800 miles of Guanzhong, who else is the opponent of South Korea?!

"General! Could this be the Qin army's trick to surrender? A lieutenant said uncertainly.

Han Teng looked at the person who spoke and found that it was Yang Duanhe, whose ancestral home was in Hedong, and this person was flexible in his use of soldiers. He is a young general vigorously promoted by King Han.

"What do you mean by Captain Yang?" Han Teng ignored the surprised generals in the big tent and said with a smile.

"Li Cheng is a person who was born in the Li family in Longxi. His elder brother Li Xinai was the leader of the younger generation of the Qin State, and if he hadn't been burdened by his subordinates, he wouldn't have died in Sanchuan! Li Cheng was more elegant than Li Xin, at the time of the Great War. I must know how to calm the morale of the army. These days. We killed more than 10,000 Qin troops, at this time, how could he be angry with the general Wang Meng because of a little thing? You must know that a young general like Li Cheng, although he cares about his authority, rarely conflicts with the generals in the army! What's more, everyone knows that the losses of the Qin army are so large. It's not that the command is ineffective, it's that our trebuchets are too powerful. The Qin army can only parry! Yang Duanhe analyzed methodically.

"Go on!" Han Teng just said lightly.

Yang Duanhe knew that the main general recognized his analysis, and his self-confidence was a little more, and he continued: "From Qixian to Yaoguan, the distance is more than six hundred miles, even if the Qin army goes all out, it will take at least six days to reach Yaoguan. Wang Meng's cronies just now have already said that Xianyang asked Li Cheng to defend to the death, at least until the reinforcements arrived! But we might as well think about it, if the current offensive continues, how long can the Qin army hold out? ”

Everyone fell into deep thought, in just four days, the Qin army had killed 11,000 people, and the defenders of the pass were only 20,000, half of which was removed at once, and the strength was already overstretched. As long as the attack continues, after three days, the city will be broken! This means that the defenders of Yaoguan will definitely not be able to insist on the arrival of Qin's reinforcements, unless Qin sends cavalry-based reinforcements, which may be able to arrive on the fourth day! After holding out for two days, the main infantry can also arrive!

"Time! For us and the Qin State, the most important thing is time! Wang Meng sent someone to tell us that the Qin State had broken through the Xiongnu army, and it should not be groundless! On the one hand, he can win our trust without saying anything. On both sides, if he truly surrenders, it will not do him any good to lie. The only explanation is that he told us the news and wanted to gain more of our trust! Only with greater trust can he offer us more conditions, such as asking us to attack the city again tomorrow night! A day's time that we are all wasting is a feint! Think about it, if he really surrendered, but we believe it, what would happen? ”

Everyone looked at each other, there is no doubt that if Wang Meng just surrendered by fraud, then the Korean army would have wasted a day's time, and the Qin army not only gained valuable respite, but also maybe it could "yin" the Korean army when the Korean army attacked the city tomorrow night, and boost morale with a big victory! When the Korean army reacts and attacks again, there is a great possibility that the side of the pass will be reinforced by the cavalry of the Qin State before the city is broken!

"These are all Captain Yang's guesses, unfounded!" A lieutenant muttered.

Yang Duanhe smiled after hearing this, and asked rhetorically: "Then take the liberty of asking, why did the Qin army choose to open the door and surrender at night?" ”

"That's understandable! With the cover of night and the convenience of acting, we can quietly enter the city without alarming the main force of the Qin army! By the time the Qin army reacts, we have already surrounded them! ”

Yang Duanhe nodded and said approvingly: "There are indeed such benefits!" However, if the Qin army had carefully set up an ambush, we would have walked into the Qin army's trap without knowing it! When we react, we just don't know how much we will lose! ”

The other party was speechless for a moment, and Yang Duanhe took advantage of the situation and said to Han Teng: "General! Wang Meng said that the Qin army he could influence was at least 2,000 people, and if that was the case, then he should be sure enough to lure us into the city during the day. All right! Even if the guards are the troops he can't influence, the city is full of his troops, and he can let us occupy the city. Even if he only controls a few hundred people, if he suddenly attacks the Qin army, we have a great confidence that we can take the city in one go! Why wait until the evening?! Wang Meng did this, obviously with selfish intentions! We must not accept Wang Meng's advice in order to reduce some casualties! ”

Han Teng stroked his palms and laughed, and said approvingly: "Captain Yang is reasonable! Ben will also have this concern. After you say this, Ben will think even more that Qin Jun is a trick to surrender and want to buy time! ”

After speaking. Glancing at the generals, he said in a cold voice: "General Ben knows that some of you may still be lucky, thinking that the Qin army may really surrender, but it is just self-defeating!" But what General Ben wants to say is to attack Qin and capture Guanzhong. It has always been the first big thing that the king wants to do! Today, we are just one step away from success. General Ben does not allow a little risk to fall short! Even if the Qin army really intended to surrender, General Ben would not mind paying tens of thousands of more casualties. Conquer the pass with your true skills! Even if our whole army is wiped out here, we must pave a road to Xianyang for the armies of Sanchuan and Hanzhong! ”

"Whoa!" Everyone replied awe-inspiringly.

Obviously, Han Teng had already decided that he would rather kill three thousand by mistake. Don't let go of one! Regardless of whether Captain Wang Meng surrendered sincerely or not. The South Korean army will not make a feint.

"How does Captain Yang think our army should respond?" Just when everyone felt that the meeting was about to end, Han Teng suddenly said to Yang Duanhe.

Everyone was puzzled, only Yang Duanhe knew that Han Teng planned to teach Qin Jun a lesson for Qin Jun to deceive himself.

"It's better to calculate!" Yang Duanhe said softly, "Since Qin Jun thinks that we have been fooled, why don't we fake it and make a feint attack first." Onslaught again! However, the last general thought that the general was already in his chest! There must be a better way than the last general! ”

Han Teng laughed when he heard this. said: "Ladies and gentlemen, according to the king's orders, this general has explored a small road, which can go around the pass, pass over the mountain, and go directly to the south of Lantian!" ”

Everyone was pleasantly surprised, if there was really this shortcut, then the Han army could completely make the pass guarded by the Qin army useless. It's just that why King Han knows the existence of Xiaodao, everyone doesn't understand!

Naturally, King Han would not jump out and tell them that when Liu Bang first entered the customs, he took the trail. But there is a difference of 100 years before and after, and it is difficult to say whether there is this trail or not. At the beginning, Duke Qi led an army of 100,000 to besiege Luoyang, and more than 10,000 people under Duke Qi surrendered. Some of them are from Orion backgrounds, and some of them really know that there are trails in the mountains, but they don't know where they lead. After five days of exploration by hundreds of people, they finally found a trail leading directly to Lantian South.

"Yang Duanhe!" Han Teng changed his calm tone and said awe-inspiringly.

"The last general!" Yang Duanhe is also a positive color return.

"General Ben ordered you to lead an army of 40,000 people, take a small road to capture Lantian, and cooperate with the main force to attack the pass before and after! Have you ever been able to do that? ”

"The last will do! But the last general will lead an army of 40,000 as a captain, and it may be difficult to convince the public! Please give the general the right to cut the last general first! Yang Duanhe said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Yes! This general will grant you the right to cut first and then play. Below the school captain, those who do not listen to your orders will be killed! Han Teng didn't feel that Yang Duanhe's request was excessive, but felt that it was very in line with his temper, so he happily agreed.

That night, the offensive of the Han army gradually slowed down, and the Qin army was greatly pleased. Li Cheng knew that most of his bitter meat tricks had worked! The South Korean army must want to control the casualties and complete the battle tomorrow night. It's just that Li Cheng didn't know, Qin Jun didn't know, in the deep night that they couldn't see, a large army rushed headlong into the dense forest of the mountain.

The sky was soon bright, and although he knew that the Korean army was unlikely to storm the pass, Li Cheng still ordered his guards to report the situation on the city to him at any time. Fortunately, it turned out that everything was under Li Cheng's control, and the attack of the Korean army, which was originally two or three thousand people, was reduced to one thousand, and the intensity of the battle was also greatly reduced!

A morning passed, and the Qin army actually only suffered a few hundred casualties, and the Qin army began to suspect that the Han army had miscalculated the strength in the city and was frightened by the tragic sacrifice not long ago?! No matter what the reason was, the pressure on Qin Jun was greatly reduced, and it finally made Qin Jun breathe a sigh of relief.

"General! The Han army was really feintifying to attack the pass, and Captain Wang basically didn't feel any pressure! The guards quickly informed the chief general Li Cheng of the news.

Li Cheng just nodded lightly, signaling that he knew, but his heart was full of joy.

"Gather two thousand archers and two thousand dead soldiers, let them rest in peace, and at night, this general will be of great use!" Li Cheng commanded without question.

Now that Han Jun has already entered the army, how can he be worthy of Han Jun's intention if he doesn't prepare for the night's "big gift"! The gates of the pass are not so wide, and they are most suitable for archers to condescend to release their arrows! Li Cheng is confident that as long as he is given enough arrows, he can keep as many as the Han army comes!

"Whoa!" The guards took the order and left.

It's just that in the afternoon, after the Qin army got used to the nonchalant attack of the Korean army, the Korean army suddenly launched a strong attack! The trebuchet suddenly became powerful, and four hundred Qin troops died in battle! More than 2,000 Han troops suddenly left the camp and joined the ranks of attacking the pass, and an hour later, the casualties of the Qin army reached 1,500! And in the whole morning, the Qin army only suffered more than 600 casualties!

There is no doubt that Han Jun is starting to get serious this time! Although he didn't understand why the Han army did this, the Qin army quickly reacted and resumed the fierce battle with the Han army. Only when this news reached Li Cheng's ears did Li Cheng understand that he had no "guests" to entertain at night! (To be continued......)
