Time gradually passed, and half a month passed.

I saw that Ren Taixu's army tightly surrounded Hanzhong, but did not attack the city.

For a while, whether it was inside or outside the city, the morale of the soldiers was a little low, and they really couldn't guess Ren Taixu's thoughts.

I don't know why the siege is not attacked?

You must know that Hanzhong is the hinterland of Beidi, and it has always been used as the granary of Beidi, and it is obviously not feasible to besiege it without taking it, even relying on the logistical advantage, Ren Taixu's army can only be dragged to death.

This is why Great Qin chose this place as the place where the Northern Land fought to the death against Ren Taixu.

Daqin just wanted to take advantage of the geographical advantages of Hanzhong to firmly contain Ren Taixu, and even drag Ren Taixu's army to death.

There is no doubt that even the Great Qin generals in the city at this time were also baffled by Ren Taixu's hand.

On the contrary, outside the city at this time, in Ren Taixu's Chinese army tent, Ren Taixu sat on the top, and his henchmen on the left and right were also civil and military ministers.

At this time, Ren Taixu had a smile on his face, and said to Li Huayuan, who was the first in his right hand: "Huayuan, have you ever been ready?" ”

At this time, Li Huayuan was wearing a Taoist robe, with a long beard, and a goose feather fan in his hand, which looked like a fairy in the barracks.

Li Huayuan also smiled slightly, and bowed to Ren Taixu: "Lord Qi, the city should be ready, just wait for the lord's order!" ”

When Ren Taixu heard this, he also nodded with satisfaction, and then said to a white-haired veteran on his left hand, Su Yuansheng: "Old General Su is ready for feather arrows at dusk today!" ”

Su Yuansheng spoke: "No! ”

Ren Taixu's internal response here naturally can't do the previous feat in Hanzhou, and he should directly join forces with the outside and open the city gate.

After all, Hanzhong is heavily guarded, and Ren Taixu's tentacles cannot be extended to Hanzhong.

In the northwest, he can directly make the deputy general who guards the city do the internal response, while in Hanzhong, he has few internal responses in the army, and more merchants in the city, helping them deliver news for the disciples of the Cangsheng Sect.

However, Ren Taixu doesn't need them to cooperate with the outside world, he just needs them to play their old jobs.

……

At dusk, the defenders of the city at this time were already a little slack, although there were hundreds of thousands of troops outside the city. But as the previous half a month passed, the army outside the city did not attack the city, which put pressure on them.

As they got used to the army outside the city, the pressure on them gradually decreased.

Even if the guards of the city repeatedly said that they should be vigilant, no matter how determined they were, it was impossible for them to pay full attention and raise their vigilance at any time.

Moreover, people are social animals, as long as one person relaxes, whether it is imbalance or other psychological factors, they will treat this emotion to the whole army.

So although it was only half a month, the vigilance and morale in the city were far inferior to when Ren Taixu's army had just arrived.

In fact, the current military strategists have some misunderstandings about the siege without attacking, and only think that this is an absolute advantage, and the city lacks water, food and grass, so as to force others to surrender.

As long as a general who is proficient in the art of war understands the psychology of a soldier, he will find that as long as there is enough time, besieging but not attacking is like a real psychological warfare.

"Husband fights, courage also. One blow of strength, then decline, three and exhaustion. He did his best to make money, so he restrained it. ”

Sometimes, the battle between the two armies is not only about strength, but also about psychology.

The art of war is cloudy: attacking the heart is the first is the meaning.

Relatively speaking, the casualties of the siege are definitely far greater than those of the defenders, so the defenders often have a certain advantage.

But the besieging side was not without an advantage, they decided when to attack the city, so they took the initiative, so they mastered the change in the tide of battle.

When the two armies confronted each other, the morale of the soldiers who were definitely in control of the city was even higher when it came to the soldiers outside the city and in the city, because they could decide when to attack at any time, while the defenders could only be forced to defend.

Although defending the city has some advantages, their defense of the city is boring, and their morale will drop significantly.

To put it simply, using boxing practice as an example, one person punches, one person does the target, and the one who definitely beats people is even more excited.

And even if the person who is the target is wearing thick armor, he may suffer much less pain than the attacker, but he will be more boring, and psychologically his momentum is weaker than the opponent.

Of course, the above discussion is placed in a long period of time, if the time is short, the war continues, and the morale changes are not obvious, then the soldiers who are besieging the city will have a disadvantage.

At that time, Wang Jian attacked Chu with an army of 600,000 and decided to adopt the strategy and tactics of steady and gradual advancement, which was a stalemate with Xiang Yan for more than a year.

Wang Jian is free from fighting every day, and it is strictly forbidden to go out of the base to face the battle.

Xiang Yan attempted several attempts, and selected hundreds of soldiers with high throats and loud voices to shout and insult in front of Qin Lei every day, but let Chu Bing scold so that his throat and eyes were smoking, and the tip of his tongue was swollen.

Wang Jian just turned a deaf ear, sat firmly in the big tent of the Chinese army, closed his eyes and recuperated, and let the officers and men of the whole army eat and sleep well, so as to recharge their energy and lay a solid foundation for the future fierce war.

A year later, the morale of Great Qin was high, and the morale of Great Chu was low, and when the general offensive was launched, it was decided by a battle!

Wang Jian and Chu, in a foreign country, the time and place are favorable, and they are not advantageous, but he is proficient in the art of war, understands the psychology of soldiers, and firmly controls the changes he occupies in his own hands, so as to defeat the enemy.

Of course, at this time, Ren Taixu did not plan to be like Wang Jian and stalemate with the defenders of Hanzhong for a year.

After all, the pattern of the world is changing too fast, who knows, what will happen in a year?

And he is not Wang Qian, and there is no support from Daqin behind him, if it is really a stalemate for a year and a competition in logistics, he really may not be able to pass Hanzhong.

With Ren Taixu's order.

At this time, the somewhat lax defenders on the city suddenly noticed that the rhythm of the enemy army outside the city seemed to have changed a little from the previous January!

Gradually, vigilance rose in my heart, and sure enough, at dusk, the sky gradually darkened!

Suddenly the city erupted and shouted one after another: "Enemy attack!" ”

All the defenders of the city were nervous, looking out of the city, and suddenly found columns of enemy troops hidden under shields, drawing bows and shooting arrows into the city!

However, their arrows were somewhat "anomalous", and each arrow was tied with a strip of white cloth, which seemed to resemble a letter.

At the same time, the arrows were not shot towards the city, but more often drawn high, becoming a parabola, shooting towards the distant city.

Although the formation is not small, such an inaccurate arrow is indeed not harmful.

Gradually, several soldiers in the city looked at the feathered arrows stuck beside them, and the white strips of cloth on the arrows.

I couldn't help but be a little curious, so I picked it up and took a look.

Immediately, there was an exclamation!

It seemed that he was noticed by the soldiers around him, and this person did not dare to make a noise, and hurriedly threw the cloth strip on the ground.

However, this action aroused the curiosity of more and more defenders in the city, and they all picked up the strips of cloth on the ground to take a look.

At the same time, the real gathering place of feather arrows is still in the city, and more and more people in the city have seen these feather arrows and the strips of cloth on the arrows.

At this time, there was Ren Taixu's Neiying in Hanzhong to help render the news, and it didn't take long for a message to break out in the city!

Xue Shoulan, the king of Qi, intends to rebel!

Although he knew that this was the news of the enemy army outside the city, the content on this white cloth strip was really true, and many secrets were recorded on it, all of which were the news collected by Ren Taixu over the years, which made people feel too real after reading it!

And think of King Qi is the youngest son of the first emperor, deeply favored by the first emperor, although these years are steadfast in Qi, but it is a lot of good name, won the trust of the people.

It is suspected of raising hope, and there is black material listed by Ren Tai, which makes people feel that it is not fake!

At this time, Xue Shoulan, the king of Qi, also got the news at this time, and looked at all kinds of news on the white strip.

Immediately, his face turned red, and he said angrily: "It's really nonsense! ”

As he spoke, his face turned ugly into the color of pig liver, and his hands were constantly trembling, which made people think that this was an angry look.

It was as if he had been greatly framed.

Of course, his city is more of a performance to the people around him, after all, he is not covering the sky in Hanzhong at this time, although he is noble, but only the nominal principal.

In fact, there are many henchmen of the new emperor who hold actual power, after all, the vassal king is in charge of hundreds of thousands of troops, and the emperor will definitely not be at ease.

There are the emperor's henchmen around, and at this time he was "framed", so naturally he had to show it and not let the people around him see that something was wrong.

However, this action is not entirely fake, he is also really angry, after all, he knows better than anyone else that the news on this white cloth is not a frame.

Many of them were small movements he had moved, but many of these things were known to his henchmen.

But at this time, Ren Taixu was made public, and he couldn't help but suspect that someone had betrayed him.

On the contrary, the many generals around King Qi at this time saw King Qi's performance, and they really believed it for a while.

They all comforted one after another: "Why should the prince be angry, it's just a conspiracy of the rebels outside the city, naturally no one will believe it." ”

At this time, there were a few really smart people, who saw the news on the white cloth strip, that is, they knew that the news on it might be true-King Qi really had the intention of making trouble.

But in order to stabilize the internal form, it can only be comforted with everyone.

When Xue Shoulan saw the appearance of everyone, he gradually calmed down his anger, and then laughed: "The enemy army outside the city wants to divide us and others, but many generals are wise men, how can they be fooled?" ”

"But that Ren Taixu is really a cunning person, and he dares to frame this king, and this king will definitely cut off the head of this old horseman, which is the only way to relieve the hatred in his heart!"

When everyone heard this, they all nodded.

As the news fermented, Ren Taixu gradually had a smile on his face.

At this time, he was playing against Li Huayuan, and after a while, he dropped the sunspot in his hand, and the big dragon was alive and swallowed up the chess pieces under Li Huayuan.

Li Huayuan arched his hand and said in admiration: "The main chess skills are getting better and better!" ”

Ren Taixu just smiled slightly, and didn't mention the situation on the chessboard, and then spoke: "When does Hua Yuan think it will be messed up?" ”

Li Huayuan smiled slightly, looked at the far south, and then spoke: "Maybe we have to wait until the new emperor receives the news." ”

When Ren Taixu heard this, he laughed and said, "You still see too shallow!" ”

"Do you really think that my hand is just the king's suspicion?"

"Even if the new emperor is really suspicious, what good will it do us to remove the King of Qi? King Qi is not a famous handsome. ”

"What we have to see now is not the new emperor, it should be when the King of Qi will be determined!"

Saying that, Ren Taixu laughed again, and Li Huayuan looked thoughtful at this time.

It was at the same time that Ren Taixu was talking to Li Huayuan, in the mansion of King Qi in Hanzhong at this time.

At this time, King Qi was also sitting alone in the room thinking.

He didn't dare to gather his henchmen, because the information that had been circulated by Ren Taixu before really made him suspect that the henchmen beside him were not trustworthy.

At this time, he had already lived up to the confidence he had in the previous day.

Don't look at the daytime everyone said to believe him, but he knew that it was just to calm people's hearts.

Among them, there must be some people who have suspicions, maybe the news has already spread to the new emperor at this time.

If everything is fake, he is naturally upright and not afraid of shadows, but ......

And with the news delivered by Ren Taixu, he was very suspicious that Ren Taixu had several more important black materials in his hands, which were absolutely unforgivable.

Even if he is forgiven, he still has to worry about the new emperor settling accounts after the autumn!

So at this time, he was already very hesitant, and now there were only two roads in front of him, one was to be caught and let the new emperor fall.

This path, once chosen, is life and death!

The other way is to really rebel as Ren Taixu said!

Anyway, in the city at this time, his soldiers and horses also occupy an important part, if it really goes well, he may not be able to complete the seizure of power, so as to take charge of Hanzhong.

Next, defeat Ren Taixu and unify the northern border......

Thinking like this, Xue Shoulan had a bias in her heart again, and I have to say that Ren Taixu is still very accurate in looking at people.

Among the many princes of Great Qin, Xue Shoulan and Xue Zhennan were the most ambitious.

One is because of his special status, he is the youngest son of the first emperor, and he is the highest in the royal family.

The other is self-assured of his high merits, his military merits are at his peak, and his strength is strong enough.

Thinking like this, Xue Shoulan suddenly had a heart in his heart!

Soldiers, you are fast!

Taking advantage of the fact that everyone at this time did not react, it was just time to seize the power of the army!

Thinking like this, Xue Shoulan suddenly went out of the trail and went straight to his military camp.

Gather an army and take the city!

To be honest, even Ren Taixu didn't expect that Xue Shoulan had such courage and actually decided to take advantage of that night!
