Qin divides the east, west and south Qi Chapter 171 The night before the decisive battle of Yuyang

Wei Ran's army has besieged the Hanging Gourd City for half a month, and the defenders of the Hanging Gourd City will not be able to keep the city, and the Hanging Gourd is a strong city, which is difficult for Wei Ran to conquer in a short time.

Rao is Wei Ran, who has experienced a hundred battles, and he is also more than capable in the face of this kind of turtle shrinking play, but Wei Ran had an idea and began to attack the county that is a little far away from the Hanging Gourd City.

Yuan Bao was strong and clear, but he only moved the nearby people into the city, so Wei Ran extended all the way to the west, and finally Wei Ran opened the road connecting with Yiyang, so the hanging city became a lonely city.

Yuwen Ji, who was stationed in Wancheng, learned of the situation and immediately sent troops to recapture the town and choke the road to the north of Yiyang.

Yuwen and the army and the army of the Southern Qi met on the narrow road of Yuyang, at this time the army of the Southern Qi hung the battle flag of the king, Yuwen Zhi climbed high and looked far away and said: "It seems to be Wang Xian's army." ”

Everyone then breathed a sigh of relief, Wang Xian did not have particularly obvious combat exploits except for the Yiyang Guard Battle, so everyone felt that this person's name did not match the truth, as long as Wei Ran was not there in person, everyone was not afraid.

But what they didn't expect was that Wei Ran was now in the army, and the reason why Wei Ran appeared in Yuyang made everyone laugh.

It turned out that the siege of the Hanging Gourd, Yuan Bao was like a turtle with a shrunken head, which made Wei Ran lose interest in it, and then Wei Ran ordered a small general to continue to besiege the Hanging Gourd in his own name, and he secretly went westward, planning to go to the place occupied by Western Qin to see in person how to march in the future.

At this time, he heard the news that Yuwen and the army were dispatched to recapture Yuyang City, so Wei Ran became interested and came here in person.

If Yuwen knew that Wei Ran was in the city, he would inevitably retreat directly to Wancheng.

may be a high authority, which made Wei Ran gradually lose his passion in the past, so this time Wei Ran said to Wang Xian: "When you arrange the troops, you can count me as a general." ”

Where did Wang Xian dare to really regard Wei Ran as a general, so he could only say that he didn't dare.

At this time, Yuwen He led his troops to attack and camped ten miles outside the city, Wei Ran said to Wang Xian: "I haven't fought a head-to-head confrontation for a long time, and the message to Yuwen Ji means that the day will be a decisive battle in the field." ”

Yuwen He was overjoyed when he received Wang Xian's letter, but the surrounding generals said: "General, this Wang Xian is so big, he doesn't stick to the city, it's obviously a fraud!"

Yuwen Ji just waved his hand, and then looked like he knew it in his chest, and said to everyone: "The army of Southern Qi is moving to the ground, and now although there are several cities, but after all, the food and grass are not enough, if it weren't for the frequent disasters I have today, I will go to Yele to besiege this city, and now Wang Xian is going out of the city to seek death, such a good opportunity, how can I let it go?" ”

When all the soldiers heard this, they also felt that what Yuwen Ji said was reasonable, so they did not dissuade them and began to arrange their troops tomorrow.

Although Wang Xian sent the war book to Yuwen and Yu in accordance with Wei Ran's intentions, he was still worried about tomorrow's battle, although he conquered several cities along the way, but in order to appease the local area, he still sent troops to garrison, so there were only 20,000 soldiers in Yuyang, and the field battle of Yuwen and 50,000 troops also made him quite worried.

Wei Ran didn't care, while drinking in the mansion, he said to Wang Xian, who was sitting at the bottom: "Liu Renye, Pei Tu, Zhang Gui and others, all followed me to fight in the south and the north, you and I knew each other the earliest, but I have never personally led you to fight, you have to look carefully at tomorrow's battle, if the battlefield only looks at the number of people to win, then the Northern Qin has already leveled the world." ”

Wang Xian thought about it, it was true, although he was made a general by Wei Ran very early, but he had never fought with Wei Ran, so he felt like a supernumerary, and immediately said: "Only according to the orders of King Qin." ”

Wei Ran immediately asked people to take the map and hang it in the middle, so that Wang Xian and the generals all looked at the map, and then said: "The place where the two sides fought a decisive battle is a rare plain area, Yuwen and Le saw this, because the Northern Dynasty cavalry was numerous, and the advantage of the plain was easy to play, and our army was mostly foot soldiers. ”

Wei Ran then got up, drew out the Taiping Sword, pointed to one place and said: "Tomorrow, our army will line up here, Yuwen Ji must be a cavalry charge, and the infantry will follow, and then the cavalry will charge and disperse to the rear of our army to attack." The front and rear attacks were so that our army could be defeated, and tonight we sent people to dig trenches in front of our army's formation overnight, and install long thorns to block the enemy's cavalry. ”

As soon as these words came out, Wang Xian and the others all looked at each other, silent, and Wang Xian said embarrassedly at this time: "King, didn't you say that you would have a head-on duel with Yuwen He, so wouldn't it be a fraud." ”

Wei Ran didn't feel embarrassed by himself, but just coughed and said: "The soldiers are not tired of cheating, Yuwen and his skills are not as good as others." ”

Then Wei Ran said: "As long as the cavalry falls into the trench, the rear will definitely be overturned on their backs, and at this time, our army will send archers to fire arrows at the trench area." In this way, the rout of the Northern Qin cavalry is a head-to-head duel between the infantry, and the brave wins when they meet on the lower road, and it will depend on your courage at that time. ”

Then Wei Ran began to arrange the task, and after arranging it, Wang Xian saw that Wei Ran did not arrange his own battle, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said: "King Qin is thoughtful, King Qin will be waiting for our good news in Yuyang City tomorrow." ”

Wei Ran said suspiciously at this time: "Why is this king in Yuyang City? ”

"The king didn't assign a task to himself, didn't he want to sit in the center and command it himself?"

Wei Ran hurriedly waved his hand and said: "General Wang is wrong, this king has transferred three thousand cavalry from the rear, this king will secretly go out of the city tonight, bypass Yuyang, and ambush the army behind the mountain, when the sun reaches noon, this king will lead the cavalry straight to Yuwen and the formation, at this time the people are sleepy and the horses are lacking, the two sides either strike in the afternoon and fight again, or they are exhausted, all the back moves are out, at this time Yuwen and the formation are either empty, or the combat strength is insufficient, the king waits for work, beheads this Yuwen and, and gives Yuwen a big gift. ”

After finishing speaking, Wei Ran said to Wang Xian solemnly: "If you don't hold out until noon, this king will ask you for your guilt." ”

Wang Xian immediately raised his chest to ensure that the task was completed, and then arranged for someone to dig a trench.

After leaving the Shuaifu, all the soldiers, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know what to say.

Wang Xian saw the embarrassment of everyone, so he relieved the siege and said: "The king of Qin uses soldiers like a god, false and real, really." ”

Then Wang Xian found that he couldn't blow it anymore, so he blushed and said, "It's really shameless. ”

And Yuwen He said in the camp: "The decisive battle site chosen by Wang Xian is the plain, the southern army is mostly foot soldiers, tomorrow it will definitely be a chariot formation, blocking our cavalry, tomorrow the heavy cavalry is in front, the light cavalry is behind, after the heavy cavalry breaks the chariot, the light cavalry kills out of the formation, but don't fall in love with the battle, so as not to be shot by the strong crossbow of the Southern Qi, and then immediately rush out to both sides, detour back to the rear, and flank the Qi army. ”

Speaking of this, Yuwen Ji also said proudly: "This Wang Xian really doesn't know how to do military affairs, and he doesn't line up in the mountains, so he thinks that he feels that he has lost and is convenient to run away." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone laughed.

Yuwen then said with a smile: "Then the infantry lined up, at this time the Southern Qi army should have been stunted, everyone only needs to pick up military merits, remind the cavalry, you must chase this Wang Xian alive, this general will personally humiliate and humiliate him." ”
