The Battle of Changping Chapter 016 If you want to take it first,

"Since the Qin State has tried all his strength to replace General Lian Po in the future, it is nothing more than asking General Ben to lead the army to kill himself!" The corners of Zhao Kuo's mouth twitched slightly,

As he spoke, the baton was gently pushed, and the banner representing the army of Zhao Guo "stationed" on Hanwang Mountain immediately rushed towards the west bank of Danshui with the momentum of a tiger descending the mountain.

"Then it will be as it is!" Zhao Kuo pushed his troops and said coldly: "I will use a large army to storm the barrier on the west bank of Qidanshui. In order to tempt our army, or to make room for their follow-up troops, even if the Qin army resists, it will definitely pretend to be caught off guard, abandon the barrier, and slowly retreat back......"

"Immediately afterwards, we still followed what the Qin army thought, crossed the Danshui and headed west, and made a momentum to kill and retreat the Qin army in one go." Zhao Kuo continued his performance.

The three people on the side were all frowning, anyone knew that this Danshui was easy to pass and difficult to return, if it was said that attacking the barrier could be slightly accepted, then crossing the Danshui would almost send the lives of hundreds of thousands of Zhao soldiers to the Qin army's knife, even Xu Li, who was not a famous general, also knew the danger.

Zhao Kuo didn't know the danger.

Three of the historical failures of the Zhao army are crucial:

First, the light enemy rushed forward, although it easily tore through the Qin army's barrier on the west bank of Danshui, but it was blocked by the second barrier cast by the Qin army with Light Wolf City as the fulcrum;

Second, the fulcrum of his own rear - the line of Guguan and Changping Pass was easily broken through by the Qin army, which led to an absolute passivity strategically;

Third, the division of the main force and the baggage troops led to the inability of the army to hold on, which was an absolute mistake in tactics.

Among them, the third point is best solved, if you want to solve it completely, mixed formation is a very good way, of course, the effect is almost none, the fundamental situation that the enemy is strong and I am weak is difficult to reverse, and the best result is only to slightly delay the time of being divided and surrounded by the Qin army.

However, the two points that are crucial to the front and can really change the situation of the battle cannot be solved.

The defense system of the first line from Changping Pass to Guguan is the third line of defense arranged by General Lian Po, and it is the last bottom line of Zhao State when the Danshui barrier cannot be held.

If the army moves back as a whole, reinforcing the defense from Changping Pass to the old pass is just moving the confrontation back.

And if he used Tian Dan to lead the division to guard the line from Changping Pass to the old pass, and he led the army to break through Danshui, of course, Zhao Kuo absolutely believed that with the ability of General Tian Dan, he would not make the defense line of the Baili Stone Great Wall fall.

His own back road can be regarded as preserved, but in this way, the best result is that he is unable to break through, and the Qin army cannot break through, so they each lose some troops and return to the starting point - Danshui confrontation.

This result is still the best result, although such a result is unacceptable to neither Zhao Kuo nor Zhao Guo. What's even worse is that because Tiandan guards the Great Wall of Bailishi, the Qin army must know that it is not easy to break through, and it is bound to change formations because of this.

You must know: the main general on the opposite side is Bai Qi, and it is Bai Qi's strength because of the enemy's conditions!

Therefore, if you want to really get out of the quagmire of the Changping battlefield, you must first wake up from the fantasy of a peaceful exit formulated by King Zhao.

Only by beating Qin Jun painfully, can he and his Zhao Jun have a chance to return home safely.

And once the Qin army changes formation, it means that the greatest advantage of the traverser, the foresight, has completely disappeared. With the idea of Zhao Kuo's "talking on paper" that he inherited, plus the so-called knowledge of the 21st century, do you want to test your brain with the first of the four generals of the Warring States Period?

Obviously, I don't know how to die.

Therefore, in order to retain his only little advantage, Zhao Kuo must continue as much as possible according to the course of history: the whole army attacked, and then was besieged by the Qin army! Until the last minute, your hole cards can't be opened!

Therefore, Zhao Kuo knew that the Qin army's plan to lure the enemy into the depths must also make such a decision.

And such a plan, if it was told by another person, I am afraid that the two old generals would have been bombarded a long time ago, but out of respect for Zhao Kuo's previous performance, neither Lian Po nor Tian Dan had the intention of interrupting Zhao Kuo.

However, Zhao Kuo's "crazy words" did not end there.

Lap after lap......

Zhao Kuo circled around the small sand table repeatedly, the long stick in his hand was like a dragonfly dotting water, tapping up and down on the sand table, and from time to time he also leaned down to change the position of the flag representing the troops.

In the midst of the endless words, the situation on the sand table has changed greatly, and the battlefield situation that was originally intertwined and evenly matched has gradually become one-sided: a large area of red battle flags representing the Zhao army was surrounded by circles of black flags in this narrow strip of land surrounded by the light wolf city, the west bank of Danshui fortress and the boundary plate collar.

That's right, Zhao Kuo changed the location of his encirclement from a triangle of more than 50 kilometers enclosed by Yixun, Changpingguan, and Guguan on the east bank of Danshui to the territory on the west bank of Danshui.

The reason for this is also very simple, not because although this territory is narrow and long, compared to the terrain on the east coast, it is much flatter, and it is obviously more suitable for their own cavalry galloping and can better fight against the Qin army.

On the contrary, the purpose of choosing this place was precisely to allow the Qin army to better surround itself.

Changping Pass and Ancient Pass are the last guarantees, and Zhao Kuo is not ready to use them to take risks. Even if his plan fails, as long as the defense line of the Bailishi Great Wall is still there, at least he can buy some time for the defense of Handan. Therefore, it is inevitable that General Tiandan will be stationed here.

And since there is General Tiandan's garrison, it is almost impossible for the Qin army to break through, so in order to make the Qin army better complete the encirclement, it is almost impossible on the east bank, but the west bank is promising, and the light wolf city and Jiepai Ridge are under the control of the Qin army, which means that as long as the Qin army reoccupies the west bank barrier, then it will be impossible to escape.

Hearing this, looking at the main force of the Zhao army besieged to the death, and then looking at the scattered Zhao troops far away in Changping, the first line of Guguan and Daliang Mountain, and the Qin army besieging him in circles and circles, Lian Po and General Tian Dan's faces have turned red: Is the person in front of him the general of his own Zhao State? How can he be more like a general of the Qin State?

Every step almost perfectly fell into the calculations of the Qin army, and the army entered lightly, the grain did not keep up, and the follow-up did not respond, is this what a qualified general should do?

Just when the two were about to explode, the turning point finally came.
