Chapter 242: Zhu Di: Well played, King Qi!

Shandong has entered the winter, although the wind and snow have not yet come, but the cold wind has been announced. Whistling like a knife, the cotton wool all over his body was as useless as a burden, and was blown by the biting wind.

But whenever there is a war, the generals are not willing to drag it out until winter, whether it is marching or fighting has become a big problem, the sergeants are not guaranteed to be healthy, and before the battle is fought, a group of brave soldiers have been killed in the weather.

However, at this time, it is no longer a question of whether the generals on both sides want to or not, the war has entered a precarious state, no one is willing to let go of the slightest opportunity, the fighter plane is fleeting, and in the blink of an eye, the whole game is lost, so you can only grit your teeth and fight.

The fatigue of the long journey made these elite cavalry under the command of the King of Han tired, not only they were tired, but the war horses they sat on were also reluctant to move forward.

"This is a piece of."

A thousand-household official in the Han Dynasty's army was fed up with this tiring and boring journey, and complained, "Lao Tzu has fought a battle all his life, and he has never fought such a humiliating battle." Running around, crossing the Yellow River, going over the mountains, finally hitting the Shang River, before the battle started, he was ordered to withdraw the army, the nest was surrounded by the enemy, how can this battle become more and more unreliable! ”

The colleague comforted: "It's better to say less about this kind of gossip, who isn't, I'm also annoyed in my heart, but it's just a matter of talking in my heart, and I can't let anyone hear it." ”

The thousand households said indignantly: "I have a test hundred households under my hand, this person is born with divine power, his arms can walk horses, and as soon as he enters the battlefield, his eyes are blood-red and he wields a knife to slaughter ten thousand enemies, if he does not participate in this matter, he should be a fierce general who has repeatedly made war exploits, and in the future, he can lead thousands of people to kill the alien race." And guess what, two days ago, he fell ill, and the military doctor said that he was infected with a cold and died like this nonsense. ”

The colleague sighed: "Hey, the wind and cold are not big or small, if they are properly treated, they will be cured overnight, but if they are ignored, it will kill people invisibly." In the past two days, several of my men have died, and before the battlefield is on the battlefield, they have died of illness for some reason, and the will of God is hard to disobey. ”

"Providence is hard to disobey a fart, it is clearly the commander gap!" Qianhu Guan said aggrievedly, "The army of King Qi of Renqi walked us like a dog, and we had to walk a hundred steps when the army of other people took a step, and we had to catch up with the people, how was this battle fought, if the real knife and real gun fucked him, who was afraid of whom, these brothers under Lao Tzu's hands all crawled out of the pile of dead people with me, and I was afraid that the generals were wastes when they fought, and now it doesn't show how incompetent those people above are." ”

The colleague was taken aback: "You can't talk nonsense!" ”

"What can't be said nonsense, how this battle was fought, the ordinary sergeants below don't know, officers like you and me have clear hearts like a mirror!"

Qianhu sneered, "It's nothing more than that the prince of Han rebelled and dragged us to rebel together." It's just a rebellion, and the lord also followed His Majesty to fight a martyrdom back then, but who was the commander at that time? At that time, the commanders were His Majesty today, General Zhang Yu, Duke of Rongguo, and General Zhu Neng, Duke of Chengguo, all of whom were famous and good generals. Now the people who command us are all rice buckets like Jin Rong, and they are also worthy? If you want me to see, there is no suspense in this battle, I have heard of the reputation of King Qi for a long time, and he has won many battles and destroyed the two countries, and his majesty is no less heroic than today, how can this be fought? ”

The army of the Han King has begun to have a slight crack from the inside, although this crack is inconspicuous, but if it is allowed to develop, it will only get bigger and bigger, and even fall apart in the end.

Between the top and the grassroots, when there is a mismatch between interests and risks, it is not prominent in good times, but once it falls into adversity, there will be disagreements and strange ways.

Before the Qianhu official wanted to say something more, there was a sudden exclamation, and the thousands of cries on the battlefield were like a mountain collapsing from the top of the mountain, and a thunderous sound erupted.

He looked up and saw a dense stream of arrows like black showers, covering the sky with a suffocating despair.

"Commander gap, commander gap!"

The Qianhu closed his eyes in despair, he could figure out what was going on with his heels, and the Han Wangjun, who was in a hurry to return to Le'an, did not expect that the King of Qi had already hidden an ambush on their way back.

……

"Eight thousand elite horsemen, the whole army is annihilated?"

King Han was like a catastrophe, his face turned pale, shocked and angry, "Impossible, absolutely impossible!" ”

"It is impossible for King Qi to set up an ambush here, you inquire where this is, this is the Binzhou region, it is the most irrelevant area on the battlefield, and Le'an and Jinan are far away, unless King Qi ambushes the main force in Binzhou in advance, otherwise where does he come from to ambush the ambush, let alone an ambush, even if he is in a hurry, he has no time!"

Su Qing said weakly: "Lord Wang, this is a fact, King Qi's main force is hidden in Binzhou. ”

King Han was a little incredulous: "If King Qi's main force is in Binzhou, then the fire will be peaceful......"

"King Qi didn't go to Le'an at all."

Su Qing said in despair, "He has already left Jinan and personally rushed to the Qidong Front, and the two thousand remnants of Jiningwei went around to Zichuan to Le'an just under the guise of attracting our attention, making us think that the main force of King Qi had gone to attack Le'an." In fact, it was only Jiningwei who entered Qingzhou, and King Qi didn't think about going to Le'an at all. By the time we arrived at Shanghe, King Qi had already led the main force of Qidong's imperial army to Binzhou and set up an ambush in Binzhou. As soon as we arrived in Binzhou, the cavalry was set on fire by the main force of King Qi, and the whole army was annihilated. ”

"In fact, from the beginning, even when he gave up the battle line around the junction of Jinan and Qingzhou, we have been brought into his rhythm, step by step towards the pit dug by King Qi, although we have been making changes to try to get out of this rhythm, but it still has no effect, but it is more rapid to die."

King Han's heart was cold, and when he thought he was desperate enough, even more desperate news came.

"Lord Wang! The enemy attacked the rear of our army, and because the battle line was stretched too long, it was difficult for the rest of the troops to support, and the artillery of our army was gone! ”

Han Wang's brain was short-circuited, and he only felt that his eyes were dark, and all the strength in his body was drained, and he fell down uncontrollably.

"Lord Wang!"

……

In the handsome camp in Binzhou, Zhu Gaoxian looked at the sand table that simulated the battlefield situation and beckoned, Su Wen understood and reached out to remove all the cavalry and artillery of the Han King on the sand table.

"Cavalry and artillery are the tiger teeth of the Han King, without the tiger teeth, do you think he is still a tiger?"

Zhu Gaoxian said with a smile, "In the eyes of this king, he is already a dry bone in the grave." ”

Su Wen said with admiration: "The prince's layout is really long-term, and he lured the king of Han into the trap step by step, and although the king of Han has been trying to change the direction of the war, he has repeatedly used strange tricks, but he does not know that every step of his is in the calculation of the prince, and in the end, we will take down the most elite eight thousand cavalry of the king of Han without much effort." ”

"But ......," Su Wen asked puzzled, "Lord Wang, if we concentrate the main force on Le'an, wouldn't the benefits be greater?" If we can directly capture Le'an, our army has cut off the hope of the Han King to win, the war is a logistics supply, the logistics of the Han King's line can only rely on Le'an, and after our army takes Le'an, the Han King is a trapped beast, homeless, cut off the supply is his way of life, can be finalized in one fell swoop. ”

Zhu Gaoxian smiled: "At first glance, you just haven't read Sun Tzu's Art of War." ”

"What?" Su Wen was a little confused, "What does this have to do with Sun Tzu's Art of War?" ”

Zhu Gaoxian said leisurely: "Sun Tzu has an explanation in the Art of War, the trapped beast is still fighting, the dog is in a hurry to jump off the wall, the enemy has reached a desperate situation, don't rush to approach, don't force him to have no way out, then he will fight you to the death." Pushing an enemy in a desperate situation too much and killing them all will only make him fight back to the death, hurting both sides and endangering themselves. As long as you achieve the victory over the enemy, you don't have to kill them all. ”

If Zhu Gaoxian directly captured Le'an, although it cut off the survival of the Han king, it did not have any impact on the army led by the Han king. At least for a short period of time, the Han King can still maintain the same combat power.

And after the King of Han knew that he had no way out, with the character of the King of Han, he would definitely not accept his fate on the spot, but turned to Zhu Gaoxian's troops to make the final death-defying counterattack, and desperately wanted to bite off a bite of meat on Zhu Gaoxian's body.

If that's the case, it will be a big loss for Zhu Gaoxian, he obviously has a better way to deal with King Han, there is no need to work so hard.

The pattern is different.

……

"Look at the pattern of King Qi, and then look at the pattern of King Han, you can see how big the gap between the two is."

Zhu Di smiled after seeing the battle report, and his heart, which had been melancholy for many days, was finally replaced by joy.

He was not happy that King Qi had suppressed King Han, but he was appreciating King Qi's strategy and attitude in this battle.

The rebellion of the King of Han was like a joke in the eyes of His Majesty the Emperor.

He himself was the protagonist of the last Jing Disaster, and he knew very well how difficult it was for the vassal king to rebel in the prosperous era when he only occupied one place, and he felt scared when he thought about it now.

And the difficulty of King Han's rebellion is not more difficult than Zhu Di's rebellion.

However, King Han himself didn't seem to realize this, he thought that the old man could do it, then he could do it too. Although he knew that his chances of success were not high, he always felt that he still had a chance.

This line of opportunity is worth fighting for the life of King Han.

Zhu Di knew very well what King Han was thinking, and he knew better than King Han that this glimmer of opportunity in King Han's eyes was actually just an illusion.

Therefore, His Majesty the Emperor has never felt any crisis, he is just using the standpoint of a bystander to appreciate King Qi's wonderful tactics this time.

Half-provincial troops against half-provincial troops, King Qi used exquisite strategies to cut down the most offensive cavalry and artillery of the Han king with minimal losses without having an advantage.

At the beginning of the war, King Qi struck first and captured the natural danger of Zichuan, thus laying the groundwork for the subsequent tactics. After the withdrawal of the army to Qidong, showing the enemy to be weak, leading the king of Han to go deeper, in fact, the plank road was darkened by Chen Cang, and the house was stolen from the Zichuan detour. And the King of Han was forced to withdraw his troops, but he never expected that the real purpose of King Qi was not to steal his family, but to chop off the right hand of King Han.

The smooth deployment made Zhu Di say with emotion: "It can really be said that the blue is better than the blue, when I was in my twenties, where was King Qi so cunning and wise, and the way of using soldiers became more and more skilled." When I was in Mobei, I even felt a sense of sympathy. But now, within a few years, I feel that his way of using troops has surpassed mine. ”

"The luck of the generals in the world, King Qi accounts for five buckets, I account for four and a half buckets, Zhang Fu accounts for one bucket, and the rest owe half a bucket."

If Zhu Di is King Qi, it is not that he can't play these tactics, but he will definitely not be as smooth as King Qi. Interlocking, every step counts.

What's even more terrifying is that until now, King Qi doesn't seem to have used all his strength?

……

King Han slowly opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling tiredly.

"Su Qing ......"

"The minister is here."

Su Qing hurriedly walked over, "Lord Wang, the doctor said, you are angry, your heart and lungs are attacked by fire poison for a while, and you can recover after two or three months of recuperation, but during this period, you must not be angry anymore." ”

King Han asked a little confused: "Recuperation for two or three months?" Do we have two or three months left? ”

Su Qing was silent.

Although King Han is also a famous general, his way of using troops is very limited. The best thing for the king of Han is the cavalry, and the cavalry he leads, with the odd victory, can always kill a bloody way out of the chaotic army, and is the sharpest spear.

Now, the spear is gone.

Not only was the cavalry wiped out, but even the artillery was gone.

His army had lost its offensive nature, and although the infantry did not suffer many casualties, this also meant that the Han king's army no longer had much mobility to fight an effective offensive battle.

King Han asked weakly, "During the time I was in a coma, did King Qi make any movements?" ”

Su Qing replied: "King Qi completely occupied the western part of Binzhou with his army, and the army stationed in Jinan also drew out a guard and stationed it in Shanghe with the Dezhou Left Guard. ”

King Han analyzed: "Hmph, does King Qi want to start a decisive battle with our army in Binzhou, this king will not let him succeed." After passing the order, our army withdrew from Binzhou and was stationed in Wuding Prefecture instead, temporarily avoiding its edge, stuck between King Qi's defense lines, so that they could not complete the merger, thus eroding the morale of King Qi's side. ”

Although he was defeated, King Han calmed down at this time and made a judgment that he thought was rational.

As everyone knows, Zhu Gaoxian laughed when he learned the news: "Su Wen, King Han is in trouble again!" ”

"Quickly send an order to our army, leave a guard in Binzhou to continue to confuse the king of Han, and the remaining troops will seize Hengtai, Changshan, Tianzhen, Putai, Lijin in the shortest possible time, and complete the six-point line with Zichuan, tidal tactics, and cut off the connection between the king of Han and Qingzhou!"

These five cities had been in a state of contention before, but Zhu Gaoxian withdrew from the battle line and gave up the competition. Because if he continued to fight like that, even if he captured these five cities, the casualties would be staggering.

And now that the main force of the King of Han has shrunk in Wuding Prefecture, Zhu Gaoxian can easily take down the five cities, cut off the connection between the King of Han and Qingzhou, and eat away at the remnants of the main force of the King of Han step by step!

If the previous ambush in Binzhou pushed the King of Han into the coffin, then the capture of the five cities now is to cover the coffin board of the King of Han!
