Chapter 66: The Source of the Pool
The lookout post is set up on a high mountain in front of the wall, and you can see more than ten miles away. When the South Korean army arrived, it was already discovered and notified that the battalion was ready for battle. Later, when the South Korean army camped on the spot and rested, the alert was lifted. After Hu Yang sent a military envoy, the public passenger knew that Hu Yang was in the Korean army opposite, so he sent someone to contact him and reported that he would return one day. By dawn, an army of 1,000 men came out of the Han military camp, divided into two parts, left and right, and came along both sides of the valley road.
After the 1,000 people left the camp, the lookout sounded the alarm, and immediately a hundred people went up to the wall and waited for them. After a while, the lookout reported: "Half of the people who came were Qin, and half were Han." "The bus passenger is unharmed, and probably knows that Hu Yang may be here; The other half of the South Korean army is very likely to be a South Korean general who has come to negotiate. He sent ten men out a mile away to wait, and when they came near, he ordered them to stop. Hu Yang came out and said: "Hu Yang in the middle, bring Han to enter Gongzi Wu with him." ”
The hairpin checks the festival charm and sends someone to report it. The public passenger said without injury: "Please see the middle guard and Gongzi Wu, and the others will stay temporarily." ”
The order was passed out, and the middle guard glanced at Gongziwu, and then took Gongziwu's hand and walked towards the camp. The others didn't move. After Hu Yang and Gongziwu walked into the camp and the public came to salute, Hu Yang said: "I wish to invite all the troops into the camp!" ”
Only then did the public take the order: "Please enter the camp!" ”
Hu Yang and Gongziwu stood on the wall, watching the Qin army and the Han army enter the camp, the public attendant accompanied them, and a group of Qin soldiers were neatly lined up under the wall, separating the three from the army entering the village; On the commanding heights of the four places, one of the Qin troops stood with a halberd, and Hu Yang pointed out: "There are crossbowmen lurking behind the halberd, but there is a change, and ten thousand crossbows are fired together!" ”
Gongzi Wu asked, "How many soldiers are guarding this?" ”
Hu Yang said: "The leader is the public ride, and the Qin relatives are also." The department is 10,000 people. Or not in this ear. The minister did not know the details. ”
Two Qin soldiers led two battalions of Han and Qin troops through the camp and to two houses on the edge of the valley. Hu Yang kept watching and was very satisfied with the injury-free handling of the bus passengers. In a business-like attitude, it is an unusual rigor that is difficult for ordinary people to have. It wasn't until the camps of the armies were completed that Hu Yang and Gongziwu returned to camp together. Gongziwu knew that he was already surrounded by the Qin army, but if he acted rashly, he would be wiped out! Fortunately, his task is not to make trouble for Qin Jun, but to negotiate, otherwise it will be really difficult.
After the camp was completed, the public passenger changed his face and invited officers of all levels on both sides to a banquet. Although it is just porridge, not even salt plums, but after camping, these hot foods are enough to relieve fatigue.
After sending Gongziwu away, Hu Yang asked the public passenger: "Do the five doctors know?" ”
Gong Cheng said: "Five doctors are the best!" "Take Hu Yang to another tent, and sure enough, Wang Yi is already sitting there.
Hu Yang comforted Wang Yi fiercely, and then asked about the specific situation. Wang Yi briefly reported the process of attacking Yanhe, and told him that Yanhe was now basically in hand, and only the city had not yet been breached. The reason why it was not breached was because the defenders were too few to be attacked, and the personnel were discounted in vain. Or it may be better to negotiate conditions, or let the South Korean army attack.
Hu Yang asked Wang Di to take him to inspect various places in Yanhe, and asked Zheng Anping, Chen Si and others about the situation. Wang Yi said: "We are in the middle of the war, Zheng, Chen and a doctor can be the first credit!" Then he summarized the situation he had investigated from several aspects and reported it to Hu Yang. Hu Yang exclaimed: "Guo Xiancai is also talented." ”
Hu Yang crossed the valley and entered the valley. At this time, it was already sunset, and the smoke of each house was curling, and the fragrance of corn was overflowing. Wang said: "The meals in the camp are all arranged by each family. Each family is out of the camp, and when each family prepares meals, one with his children and the other with the battalion soldiers. Or if there is an urgency at home, and you can beg for a day, you should also help in the camp, and you will return when the matter is over. ”
Wang Ji took Hu Yang to inspect the siege of the city, the trench had been constructed completely, and it was half a man deep, and the breastwork became an obstacle that was difficult to overcome. Moreover, there are only more than 1,000 soldiers in the city, so it can be judged that the counterattack is weak.
Hu Yang asked Wang Di: "What do you think about the matter with the doctor?" ”
Wang Yu said: "The minister has recruited more than ten people who can go to Handan. How can it be more meaningful? ”
The corners of Hu Yang's eyes jumped, he felt a trace of excitement, and said, "If so? ”
Wang Di said: "Don't dare to bully." ”
Hu Yang said: "What's the doctor's plan? “
Wang Yi said: "The ministers abandoned the city and did not attack it, and Gai wanted to lure the Korean army here with the city, and I went to Handan!" If you get the way and get through Handan, how can you be alone and get the shame of leaving the stone, and the hatred of Gongzi Yu should also be repaid. “
Hu Yang said: "Why do you treat Han Ye? “
Wang Yi said: "The minister's will is not known to Han. I attacked Zhao Yan and Israel and Han, and Han and our alliance also. If you turn to attack Handan, I am afraid that Han Sheng will have lips and teeth, and there will be two hearts. “
Hu Yang said: "What the doctor said is true. Therefore, it is rare for the ministers to plan to avoid their ears and eyes. “
Wang Yi said: "If you don't know everything about Yan and Han, but if you say that the Qin army will return to the country and lead to it, he will not know it." “
Hu Yang said: "It's not easy. Let me think about it. “
At the end of the inspection, Hu Yang took Wang Yi to find Gongziwu, and also took Gongziwu to inspect the circle. Although it was already dark, the situation of the Qin army besieging the city was clear. Back at the camp, Gongziwu said that since Yan He had been ordered by the Qin army, even if the operation against Zhao was a complete success, the remaining time would be taken over by the Han army, and the Qin army would withdraw and return to China. When he arrived in Korea, he was still supplied with grain by Han.
Wang Yi said: "It's not as Gongzi said, the city has not been built, and the city has not been completed. ”
Gongziwu said: "This small city is just around the corner." The minister should repay the son to blame, so as to enter the court and also. ”
Hu Yang said: "The ministers are waiting to go here, without a son, go through the Han land to ask for grain?" ”
Gongzi Wu said: "The minister should be in the son's place to say more." ”
That night, Gongziwu took a hundred people out of the camp and went back to find Gongzi. Two days later, Gongzi led the front army to the front of the camp, which was naturally blocked by the Qin army. After some negotiations, Gongzi and Gongziwu entered Yanhe accompanied by Hu Yang, and sure enough, they saw that Yanhe had been completely occupied by the Qin army, and only Yanhe City was lonely, and it had been surrounded by water.
Gongzi said to Hu Yang: "Our country is fortunate to have the help of a big country, and I have to fight it." Now and now, they are all gifts from great powers. Although a small city is left behind, it does not dare to waste the work of a big country. 阏和,Xiaoyi also; On the party, far away from the county also. None of them are enough to compensate the big powers. The minister invited the great country to return to the teacher to repay the king, and the king did not dare to be stingy with his reward. ”
Hu Yang said: "Why do you want to hear the army? ”
Childe blamed: "This projectile city, but it is enough to have an army." The ministers should stay with the former army to attack and the rest. If the city is broken, it will return. ”
Hu Yang said: "When will the former army enter?" ”
Childe blamed: "I have led the front army to a thousand strong people." Backup should be on the day. ”
Hu Yang said: "The minister invites the prince to enter the palace every day." Tonight I would like to keep it for my son. ”
Childe blamed: "I have a thousand people outside the camp......"
Hu Yang interrupted him and said, "Thousands of sons have entered, and the Qin army has come out, but what? “
Childe was speechless for a moment.
Hu Yang said: "Non-ministers dare to look at the army. The army besieged the city with 5,000 men, and 5,000 people defended it, but it was actually difficult. If the prince listens to the ministers, but sends a large army of 20,000, things can be harmonious. “
Gongzi glanced at Gongzi Wu, and Gongzi Wu said: "The minister thinks that the front army of 10,000 people is enough to deserve it." “
Hu Yang saw that they couldn't tell the difference between good and bad, so he didn't say more, but asked: "When the ministers return to the teacher, who should they use?" “
Gongzi glanced at Gongzi Wu again, and said, "But the above party guards and sends the army down the mountain." “
Hu Yang said: "I hope that the prince will send an order to the party to guard and discuss the matter of returning to the division with the five doctors of the rear army." The minister should also decree the king's tomb, please go with the prince's envoy. “
Childe blamed: "So good! "Since the messengers on both sides were to set off at the same time, it was agreed that they would set out again the next day. However, on the night of the same day, both sides sent envoys to the armies to issue a fatwa. Hu Yang originally asked Gongzi to stay in Yanhe temporarily, so that he could be more comfortable, but Gongzi resolutely refused, saying that he would go out of the camp to share the joys and hardships with the soldiers, and even Gongziwu brought people out.
After Zheng Anping and his entourage arrived in Hu Yang, they also returned to the team and joined forces with Hu Yang's pro-camp. Hu Yang's pro-camp has learned about the deeds of Zheng Anping and others from Wang Yi's mouth, and the Qin people advocate military merits, and when they see Zheng Anping making great contributions, they congratulate each other.
The next day, the military envoys from both sides set off together, and each found their own messengers: Shangdang Shou and the five doctors Wang Ling, and conveyed the instructions that Wang Ling was ready to be guided down the mountain by Shangdang Shou. So Wang Ling and Shangdang Shou discussed for several days and determined the details of the descent.
In the meantime, Gongzi Wu led the front army. The bus let go of the valley without injury and retreated to the other side of the valley. Gongzi Wu led the army to accept the Qin army's military camp one by one, and the Qin army withdrew from the valley and embarked on the way home. However, not long after the Qin army withdrew, the Zhao army in the city came out to harass, and the strong people scattered in a hurry. Only then did the Han army know why Hu Yang reminded them that 10,000 troops might not be enough to deal with Yan He. Because Gongzi hurriedly ordered the Chinese army to also rush to Yanhe, the rear army was stationed in Yikou.
On the day when the Chinese army left and the rear army had not yet been stationed, Wang Ling and Shangdang Shouba Camp retreated.
After Wang Di's whole army withdrew from the valley, he was immediately guided by a guide and immediately went to Handan. Gongzi and Gongzi Wu were disturbed by the affairs of Yan He, and they couldn't care about where the Qin army went.
It turned out that there was a shortcut from Yanhe to Handan: a day's walk from a dry river, crossing the Ferris Ridge, and entering the source of the water; After walking along the water for another day, after going down the mountain, we entered the outskirts of Handan.
In the days of waiting for Gongziwu to enter Yanhe, Hu Yang had already ordered Sima Jin to rush to the source of the water under the guidance of the guide and open up the camp. After Wang Yu withdrew from Yanhe, he also immediately rushed to the source of the water and joined forces with Sima Jin. In order to confuse the Han army, Wang Ling was ordered to return the same way. Yu Tu tried his best to cover up the fact that the Qin army had already descended the mountain, and create the illusion that the three armies were marching together. Hu Yang wrote a letter in detail to Wang Ling to bring back to Xianyang, and told the King of Qin and the Marquis of his decision.
