Chapter 709 Deployment Battle in the Qin Palace

Wang's eyes then looked at Tu Jia, obviously waiting for Tu Jia, or Wei Guo's statement.

"Your Highness, General, I have discussed with the envoy of Wei, if my country agrees to attack Zhao, General Xinling of Wei will personally lead an army of 100,000 to help me defeat Zhao." Tu Jia also immediately agreed.

As the words fell, everyone's eyes turned to the king again.

The king, who had been guaranteed the strength of the army, immediately began to explain the strategy of killing Zhao in his heart.

"In this battle, the strength of our army should be divided into three parts." While comparing on the map, the king said: "First, the main army of the front, secretly assembled from the middle of Sichuan to Chenjun, the number should be around 250,000; second, for the surprise attack corps of the flank attack, which was assembled from Hangu into the east of the river, with a number of about 100,000; The third is the Closed Coalition Corps, with 50,000 of our army and 100,000 of the Wei army, a total of 150,000, stationed on the border of Wei. ”

Without waiting for any doubts, the king continued his arrangement:

"The specific campaign is arranged in three phases:

In the first stage, our army needed to secretly gather troops to Chen County, form a frontal main army, and then counterattack the Zhao army's Yingchuan County with a lightning speed and a huge advantage in troops, forcing the Zhao army to retreat at the same time, and mobilizing the Zhao army's forces to rescue.

Under the instant attack of our army, although it may be able to gain and be cheap, it may not be able to inflict heavy damage.

At this stage, it is not necessary to break the Zhao army, as long as the Zhao army can be driven back to the Xinzheng line.

In the second stage, after the Zhao army found out that our army was attacking on a large scale, it was bound to mobilize troops to rescue, at this time, Meng Wei led the flank attack group, bypassed the Shangdang army, and went straight to the land of Zhou Wangji, and went south

, cooperate with my positive group, and defeat Zhao Jun again.

The army of Meng's flanking attack came from a long distance, and it was almost impossible not to be discovered by the Zhao army.

Therefore, the situation of the flank attack is still a false move, and it does not matter whether Zhao is prepared or unprepared, the purpose is to let Zhao Jun see that our army has done its best.

Immediately, our army could fight with the Zhao army on the front line of Xinzheng, completely anesthetize the Zhao army, and drag the Zhao army.

In the third stage, when the Qin and Zhao armies were fighting in Xinzheng, the Qin and Wei coalition forces went out westward, occupied Zhou Wangji, and cut off the grain route of the Zhao army and its return route.

In this way, hundreds of thousands of Zhao troops are all in our ranks. Not to mention the total annihilation of this Zhao army, at least the Zhao army must lose hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and at the same time lose the strategic location of Yingchuan. ”

The words fell, but a long silence followed, and several people stared at the map, digesting Wang's huge layout.

It should be said that although the king's plan has conspiracy means, it is essentially broken by force.

The most important of them is nothing more than two points, one is to firmly attract the elite main force of the Zhao army to the Xinzheng front, so as to distance itself from the follow-up Shangdang army; The second is that the Wei army, a strange soldier, suddenly appeared in the most critical place of Zhou Wangji and cut off the grain route of the Zhao army.

You must know that the Yingchuan County of Zhao State today is a long and narrow terrain with short east and west and long from north to south, and this shortest section is the homeland of the Zhou Dynasty dedicated by Chu to Zhao.

As long as the coalition forces occupied Los Angeles, they almost cut off the lifeline of the Zhao army's grain transportation.

You must know that at this time, the Zhao army has hundreds of thousands of troops, and it is impossible to supply it with just one Yingchuan County.

Within more than ten days

, Zhao Jun is bound to run out of food.

And hundreds of thousands of troops without food, what will be the consequences, is already self-evident.

Of course, in order to really achieve this effect, neither of the above two points is easy.

First of all, it is necessary to attract the main force of the Zhao army in Xinzheng, which requires the Qin army to risk their lives and attack the Zhao army with heavy cavalry, although the Qin army now also has heavy cavalry, but compared to the mature cavalry of the Zhao army, the heavy cavalry of the Qin army is obviously slightly inferior.

Huge losses are almost inevitable.

The second is to cut off the supply lines in Los Angeles.

This one seems simple, but in practice, it is not so easy.

It's very simple, such an important supply line, the Qin army can think of cutting it off, then the Zhao army can't be defenseless.

Although the Qin army had already made the illusion that the main force was all on the front line to confuse the Zhao army, the Zhao army obviously would not be so easily deceived.

The battle for Los Angeles is bound to be the key to the battlefield.

This is also the reason why Wang wants to join the 50,000 elite Qin army in the coalition army. 50,000 elite soldiers are enough to shred the troops left behind by the Zhao army.

And the one who undertook the crazy counterattack of the Zhao army was bound to be the 100,000 army of the Wei army.

It should be said that this sneak attack is not only a conspiracy, but also a conspiracy under the crushing of troops.

It is naturally the best to be able to successfully raid without bloodshed, even if it doesn't work, the 150,000 army is the king's last hole card.

Of course, these are the scenes that the king expected, whether Zhao Jun will follow the steps expected by the king, and talk about it!

But in the end, this was already the best way that the king, or the Qin state, could think of.

The crowd is on the map

He also thought about it for a long time, but after all, it was the grandson Chu who first raised his question.

"Two questions." Zi Chu frowned slightly, and then asked: "First, why do you have to transfer troops so complicatedly, and it is in the form of a flank attack, but it can't be used as a flank attack?" Second, the move to close the door is very important, why was it handed over to the Wei State? ”

Hearing this, Wang immediately nodded and replied: "The reason why we did this complicated thing is that there is only one purpose, that is, to tell Zhao Jun that we have a plan, but the plan has not been formed, so that Zhao Jun can be a little relieved to cover the existence of the Qin and Wei coalition forces."

If the forces were directly concentrated, the Zhao army would inevitably hold the two flanks.

Only by exposing one wing can it be possible to cover the presence of the other. Although it may only increase the odds of winning, it must also be done.

Of course, if Zhao Jun can be given greater damage in the flank attack, it will be an unexpected joy.

As for why the matter of closing the door was handed over to the Wei State, first, the army of the closed door must be unexpected by the Zhao army, the strength of our army, the Zhao State roughly knows, the short 50,000 is already the limit, if it is more, it is extremely easy for the Zhao army to guess, so it must be dominated by the Wei army;

Second, the Wei army was greedy, so it was easy to close the door with it, so as to lure it to take the bait, and after actually entering the city, it would be attacked by the Zhao army from the north and south, and the loss would not be few;

Third, the Wei army is weak, the defense of the city is acceptable, if the attack on the Zhao army, I am afraid that the Wei army will not be able to catch it, or abandon our army halfway and flee is not known, only by falling into the north and south of the Zhao army, can it be made to fight to the death. ”

Listening to the king's reply, the grandson Chu also felt that there was some truth.

"If the Zhao army strictly guards the grain road,

What if you don't give the coalition any chance? Meng Fu on the side also immediately raised his own questions.

"That's what worries me the most." Wang did not shy away from it, and immediately said: "The Battle of Luocheng, the Battle of Xinzheng, and the Battle of Chenjun in the past two years have all told us that there is not much disparity in combat power between Qin and Zhao, and the heavy cavalry has been completed, and it is actually difficult to distinguish the winner in the decisive battle in the front. ”

"The key to this battle is not to face the enemy's casualties, and it will be difficult for Qin and Zhao to achieve a decisive victory." Wang swallowed his saliva, and then continued: "The key is still in Los Angeles. ”

"It's a pity that our army can't actually make many preparations for this, except for the sound of the flanking group, there are almost no ways to confuse the Zhao army." Then the king stretched out two fingers and said, "Therefore there are only two ways:

First, let the King of Wei and Xinling Jun find a way, and be sure to convince Zhao that Wei would not participate in this battle;

Second, the frontal battle should be more intense, so that the Zhao army has no time to divide too many troops to take care of their own grain routes.

In this way, it is not difficult to break through Los Angeles with a thunderous blow from an army of 150,000. ”

"Feasible." Tu Jia on the side nodded, and then saluted Zi Chu and said, "Weichen asks for his life, secretly goes to Wei State, and discusses this matter with King Wei and Xinling Jun." Not to mention that Zhao Kuo completely believed that Wei Jun would not be involved, at least he would not be so wary. ”

"Yes." Zi Chu agreed almost without hesitation, and then added: "Now that all the countries are one, if you need the cooperation of the Qi country, you can decide on your own." There is also the State of Chu, if I don't ask the State of Chu to send troops to help me, at least I can't let him be at a critical time

Wait to hold our army back. ”

"Thank you, Your Highness." Tu Jia immediately received the order and said: "The minister will not fail in his mission." ”

Nodding, Zi Chu immediately looked at Cai Ze, who had not yet spoken, and then glanced at everyone again, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, do you have any other questions?" ”

"Obey the orders of His Highness." Everyone looked at each other, and then agreed in unison.

Zichu nodded and said, "Gentlemen, wait here for a while." ”

As he spoke, Zi Chu ordered someone to take down the map, and continued: "The matter is big, Gu Chu is in charge of the king's order, and he doesn't dare to break it lightly, so the general and Xiangguo went with Gu to ask the king. ”

"Yes." Wang and Tu Jia immediately received the order.

It should be said that after Zichu grasped the authority, he could still ask the opinion of King Qin when he encountered a major event, which alone is very rare.

Of course, this is not a manifestation of not daring to take responsibility, if he did not dare to take responsibility, Zichu would not have conducted this court discussion first, and after reaching a conclusion, he would go to King Qin.

Obviously, Zi Chu's move to ask for instructions is not only a respect for the King of Qin, but also a respect for the next big battle.

After more than an hour, Zi Chu returned to the council hall with the will of the king of Qin and the king and Tu Jia, and the ultimate war machine of the Qin State finally began to start.

Team after team of Qin troops began to end their vacations and embark on a journey; Bundles of grain and grass were loaded onto wagons and transported to distant lands;

There is also Tu Jia, as the prime minister of the Qin State today, he has worked tirelessly, accompanied by the appearance of a businessman, and with the secret agents of the Wei State, he quietly moved towards the capital of the Wei State.

Qin Jun naturally couldn't hide such a huge movement

Zhao Jun's eyes and ears soon sent several urgent pieces of information to the Longtai Palace in Handan, Zhao State.
