"The distance between 菑 County and the father of Shan (shàn) is about 300 li, and with the marching speed of our army, it will take about ten days."

On the eastbound road, Zhao Tuo sat in the car, and his number one staff officer, Li Shiqi, sat on the other side.

Today's Li Shiqi is no longer wearing a red turban on his head, but a canga that symbolizes the title of hairpin.

The surrender of Su County, this person can be regarded as a great contribution, not only personally entered the city to listen to the intelligence, but also saw through Dai Yu's plan, and finally let the Qin army take Su County without any losses.

Therefore, Zhao Tuo rewarded his meritorious deeds afterwards, reported their respective military merits, and promoted them to a first-class title. As for the others, except for those soldiers who were in ambush, many of them were upgraded to titles. The generals only accumulated their own achievements, and did not reach the "experience points" of promotion.

"Ten days, plus the few days we stayed in Su County, Wei Ji in the single father city wanted to get the news of the loss of Jiang County, I don't know what he will do?"

Zhao Tuo couldn't help frowning when he thought of Wei Qi's name.

The reason why Wang Ben let Zhao Tuodong take the Wei territory was that in addition to occupying all the cities of Wei, capturing or beheading the Ningling Jun Wei was also one of the tasks.

This time the Qin State attacked Wei, and Wang Ben suddenly led Huaiyang's division to launch a surprise attack.

The Wei State hastily sent troops to resist, and its main force was annihilated by Wang Ben in a battle.

The Qin army immediately besieged Daliang, and its speed caused many princes and grandsons of Wei to be trapped in Daliang City, and there were only a few people from the Gong clan who remained outside.

Among them, the most prestigious, in addition to Wei Bao, who was captured by Zhao Tuo, is this Ningling Jun Wei Blame.

Wei Qi is the brother of Wei Bao, and he is also an outstanding figure in this generation of Wei princes, known as "Little Xinling".

However, Ning Lingjun is only Ning Lingjun after all, not the Xinling prince who can save Wei.

In the face of the Qin soldiers besieging Daliang, Ningling Jun Wei angrily raised troops, gathered more than 10,000 Wei troops from all walks of life, and went north to rescue Daliang.

Then, he was defeated by Wang Ben's army.

The Wei army was beheaded by 4,000 and 2,000 captured.

Wei fled back to the Great Song County of Wei in embarrassment, wanting to gather the remnants again, but this time Wang Ben did not intend to let him go, and sent 10,000 soldiers south to capture Suiyang.

Although Wei Ji wanted to rely on Suiyang to resist stubbornly, it was only a few days before Suiyang fell under the cannons of the Qin army.

Escorted by his cronies, Wei Ji escaped from Ascension again and traveled all the way to Shanfu County in the eastern border of Wei.

Since the Fang and Jun of Wei were captured by Chu.

Shan Father is the easternmost county of Wei and one of the last cities of Wei today.

"The Qin army has taken Jiang County and is attacking Shan Father, what should I do about this situation?"

Wei Qi sat on the couch, his face pale, and asked everyone in the room.

One of the middle-aged scribes with a high crown and a broad belt arched his hand and said, "Don't worry, son. I have found out the news that this Qin army is only 5,000 people, and it is also a new army cobbled together by Qin people from all walks of life, not soldiers under Wang Ben, and its combat effectiveness is limited. Our army has gathered nearly 7,000 people in Shan Father, and the number of troops is more than that of the Qin army, so there is no need for the son to be afraid. ”

Wei Qi sighed: "Hou Jun, although the number of this Qin army is smaller than ours, but the county is so strong, it was taken by the Qin army in just a few days, how can I not worry." ”

Hou Shu is about forty years old, with a long face and short beard, and some pockmarks on his face.

He is the grandson of Hou Huan, who died by suicide in the matter of "stealing talismans to save Zhao" in the past, and he has always been quite wise.

Wei Qi wanted to act on behalf of Lingjun, and when he heard the name of Hou Shu, he personally invited him to take him under his command and serve as a think tank.

Hearing Wei Zhi's words at this moment, Hou Shu smiled and said, "Don't worry, son. The reason why Nahua County was easily taken by the Qin people was not because of how powerful the Qin army was, but because the Dai clan had already had the heart to surrender, so they would open the city and surrender. ”

Wei Ji blinked.

"But I heard that Dai Wu once sent his people to attack the Qin army's camp at night, and as a result, he was defeated by the Qin people, with many casualties."

Hou Shu sneered: "In my opinion, the reason why the Dai clan attacked at night must be to take advantage of the situation to clean up the strong men in the city who are unwilling to surrender to Qin, and deliberately let them go out of the city to die, and they were killed by the Qin army." In this way, Dai can offer Su County without resistance. ”

"That Dai Wu has now been appointed as the county governor of the Qin State, and his sister-in-law Dai Yu has brought hundreds of Dai clansmen to follow the Qin army, this is the proof! The so-called night attack is just a drama of Dai's collusion with the Qin army! ”

"What a Dai! is so insidious, if Naigong can attack back to Jiang County, he will definitely behead Dai's father and son to show the public! ”

A big man in the room spoke angrily, this person was eight feet tall, burly, and his big belly held up his armor, which showed the strength of his body.

"Zhu Jundon't be angry, like the Dai father and son, not only in Jiang County, but even among this single father, I don't know how many people want to serve the Qin people."

As soon as Hou Shu said this, the angry Zhu strong man shouted, and Wei Zhi on the main throne also frowned, and asked: "What Hou Jun said, could it be that there are many people in the Single Father City who want to surrender to Qin?" ”

Hou Shu said coldly: "That's right. Among the single fathers, there are many wealthy families. Among them, the most powerful Wei clan is a Miao descendant of the former Wei clan, and has always had no loyalty to our Wei country, if the Qin army comes to the city in a big way, I am afraid that this Wei clan will follow the example of the Suiyang Song clan! ”

Hearing this, everyone in the room changed color in unison.

In the past, Suiyang fell, although the Qin army attacked the city with huge cannons, which frightened the Wei army.

But the most important thing is that the Song clan, a big clan in Suiyang City, in order to protect themselves, opened the city gate at night and let the Qin army enter the city, which caused Suiyang to fall into the hands of the Qin people in an instant, and Wei fled in a hurry.

Now that Hou Shu said that the Wei clan in the single father city has the heart to surrender, wouldn't the single father become the second Suiyang?

"Childe, since the Wei clan wants to surrender, then we will strike first and eradicate this Wei clan first, so that we can rest assured that we will fight a decisive battle with the Qin people."

Zhu Bi said sharply, he is the son of Zhu Hai, the chivalrous man who "saved Zhao and waved the golden mallet" in the past, with divine power and fierce personality, and he is also a great sage in the snares of Wei.

Wei Ji shook his head and said: "No, the Wei clan may have the intention of surrendering, but now it is just our speculation, if it is punished without a name, I am afraid that it will cause the fear of other big clans in the city, and it will make them surrender to the Qin army." ”

Hou Shu also nodded and said: "What Gongzi said is that the Wei family has been entrenched in the single father for hundreds of years, and it has won the hearts of the people of the single father, if it is killed, the consequences are unpredictable, and it will make Gongzi bear the name of indiscriminate killing and lose the trust of the Wei people." ”

Zhu Bi said angrily: "This can't work, that can't work, then Hou Shu, you say, what should we do?" ”

Hou Shu smiled: "Why do you always think about defending the city? ”

Zhu Bi was stunned.

Wei Ji was also stunned, and then said: "Hou Jun, what do you mean, it must be ......"

"Take the initiative!"

"In this way, there is no need to defend the city, and I am not afraid of the betrayal of the Wei clan, and the victory rate is greater!"

"This Qin army is no more than 5,000 people. And if we had left a thousand men to defend the city, we would have sent six thousand troops. ”

"To the west of the single father, there are valleys and dense forests, which can be ambushed by our army."

"The Qin army must be exhausted when they come from afar. Our soldiers rest in advance and can rest at ease. ”

"The Qin army doesn't know the terrain here, and they don't know about our ambush."

"Six thousand to five thousand, to wait for the tired to be tired, and the army in ambush to fight the panicked. How is our army invincible? ”

When Hou Shu said this, his face flashed, and he laughed: "As long as this Qin army is destroyed by ambush, the prince will definitely be powerful, so that he can take the county west and punish the Dai father and son." ”

"At that time, under the power of the son's soldiers, the Wei clan and others in this single father city will naturally be subdued, and there is no need to worry."

Zhu Bi laughed and said, "Okay! Sure enough! Just like that Wang Ben sent people to ambush us outside the Great Liang, we also returned to the Qin army with an ambush, hahaha, ambush the Qin army, this battle will be a big victory! ”

Wei Ji thought about it carefully and felt that Hou Shu's strategy was indeed impeccable.

There are more soldiers and fewer soldiers, plus an ambush in advance, no matter how you look at it, you will win.

A smile broke out on Wei Qi's face.

"Hou Jun is worthy of being my wise man, this strategy is very good!"

To the east, there were originally Fang and Jun of the Wei State.

However, according to the "Warring States Policy" quoted in the "General History of China's Administrative Divisions: Pre-Qin Volume", the Fang and County of Wei were seized by Chu in the seventeenth year of King Zhaoxiang of Qin.

Therefore, the single father should be the eastern border of Wei, to the northeast is the Fang He belonging to the Chu State, and to the southeast is the abundance of the Chu State.
