Before the Song Dynasty, there was a general lack of understanding of night blindness, and the generals did not improve the nutrition of soldiers from the dietary level, so night blindness soldiers abounded.

Only elite soldiers like the Keisha Division, all of whom were from wealthy families, could maintain their basic combat strength at night.

And in the absence of light pollution, moonlight, and starlight, the night will be extremely dark.

Middle- and grass-roots generals could not see the flag clearly and acted on orders.

High-ranking generals could not see clearly the enemy and our armies in the distance, and it was difficult for them to command accurately.

Therefore, it is the default practice of all generals to collect troops at dusk.

Pang Xuan originally thought that Ying Chengcheng would loosen the military formation, let the Zhao and Wei coalition forces return to the city, and the two armies would continue to fight after resting for one night.

But Pang Xuan didn't expect that the intensity of Ying Cheng's attack would actually go to a new level!

Wei Qi asked in a low voice: "General Pang, our army has many blind (night blind), can we forcibly collect our troops?" ”

Pang Xuan smiled: "Zhao Wei's people are night blind, are there fewer night blind people in the Qin army?" ”

"Since Chang'anjun invited to fight, how could this general not accompany him?"

"Order! The chariot returned to help, and the sword pointed at the Qin army! ”

But Pang Xuan didn't expect that this battle would be fought until the next day!

The next day on weekdays (3:00).

Meng Wu paced back and forth in the camp tent: "Why didn't the general allow the general to leave the camp tent?" ”

"Don't you want to fade away the existence of the general in the army first, and then choose the opportunity to kill the general!"

"Or is it the impeachment of the general for dereliction of duty after the war?"

"No, the king will not agree to this impeachment."

Ying Chengcheng ordered Meng Wu not to leave the camp tent in the form of a military order, and he had to sleep all day.

But our army is fighting a bloody battle with the enemy, how can Meng Wu, as a deputy general, sleep!

After barely sleeping for nine hours, Meng Wu could no longer sleep.

Because the military order could not leave the camp tent, and it was even difficult to observe the battle situation, Mengwu was anxious.

Anxious and uneventful, and Fan Yu expected to learn from the past, Meng Wu inevitably thought about it.

Suddenly, the voice of the soldiers came from outside the camp tent: "General, it's time for Pingdan!" ”

Meng Wu immediately left the camp tent and sighed: "It's finally time for Pingdan!" ”

After solving the three urgent problems, Meng Wu hurriedly asked: "Where is the boss?" ”

The soldiers responded: "I am still organizing a siege outside Xiuyu City." ”

Meng Wu was shocked: "It's Pingdan, and you're still attacking the city?" ”

"Quickly take Ben to find the boss!"

Turning over his horse, Meng Wu rode his horse towards the Chinese army.

Far away, Meng Wu saw that every commander of the Qin army was holding a torch, and the nearly 10,000 torches of his own side and the thousands of torches at the head of Xiuyu City reflected the vicinity of Xiuyu City as bright as day.

The soldiers of both sides attacked each other as they did in the daytime, killing each other incessantly.

Quickly rushed to Ying Chengcheng's side, Meng Wu bowed his hand: "Boss, Pingdan has arrived, and the last general will come at the order." ”

After issuing another military order, Ying Chengcheng looked up at the sky: "It's Pingdan?" Time flies. ”

Meng Wu said helplessly: "The boss thinks that time flies really fast, but the soldiers probably don't think so." ”

"Since the siege began before dawn yesterday, the soldiers have been fighting continuously for more than ten hours, and the soldiers are probably exhausted."

Ying Cheng bowed slightly: "Indeed, the soldiers are working harder than the generals." ”

"Ben will command the soldiers to retreat."

"General Meng, you go and wake up the 100,000 soldiers of the rear army."

Meng Wu: ???

The first sentence would have been understood, but the latter sentence would have been incomprehensible!

It's Pingdan now!

Who is a good general who will let his soldiers get up at three o'clock in the morning!

Meng Wu hesitated and asked: "Does the general want the general to wake up the soldiers of the Hou Army?" ”

"What plan does the general have for the last general to carry out?"

Ying Cheng bowed slightly: "Please General Meng lead the rear army to replace our army and continue to attack the city!" ”

"Sufficient pressure must be put on Xiuyu City."

Meng Wu suddenly said: "The general is going to make the soldiers tired?" ”

Now one of the great advantages of the Qin army over the Zhao and Wei coalition forces is the advantage of troops.

The Qin army attacked the city day and night, and the Zhao army had to accompany the city day and night.

But the Qin army could divide the 200,000 soldiers and horses into two groups, each group of 100,000, which rotated every day.

Zhao Jun can only rotate three percent of the soldiers to rest at most every day.

In the long run, Zhao Jun will inevitably accumulate more fatigue and pressure than Qin Jun.

But Meng Wu still felt that there was something wrong with this strategy.

was about to advise, but Ying Chengcheng smiled: "The tired soldier is the auxiliary, and the tired general is the master!" ”

Meng Wu was puzzled: "Tired? ”

"How will you get tired?"

The corners of Ying Cheng's mouth curled slightly: "General Zhao Pang Xuan has extremely abundant experience in battle formations. ”

"But there is one problem that no famous player can overcome, and that is aging!"

"Zhao Jiang Pang Xuan is over ninety years old, even if he has more experience, he must use his brain to show it, can his energy hold it?"

"The general thinks that the army is slightly inferior to Pang Xuan, but how can Pang Xuan's energy and physical strength be comparable to you and me?"

"So the most important thing in this battle is to boil!"

"Stay up until Pang Xuan's physical strength is weak, and until Pang Xuan's energy is low, it is the time for our army to win!"

Pang Xuan believes that the key to this battle lies in the mentality of Ying Chengcheng.

Ying Chengcheng thinks that the key to this battle lies in Pang Xuan's body!

Meng Wu was dumbfounded: "What is this?" ”

Ying Chengyun said with a smile: "There is no such strategy in the book of war, it will be called the war eagle boiling technique, or the eagle boiling tactic!" ”

After a day of fighting, Ying Chengcheng has already judged the strength comparison between the enemy and us.

There is a certain gap between Ying Chengcheng's command ability and Pang Xuan, but the gap is not big, and there will be no situation where it will collapse at the touch of a button.

Although Pang Xuan has repeatedly taken the initiative to attack, he is attacking as defending, and his desire to attack is actually insufficient, and he will not show too many flaws to give Ying Chengcheng a chance to win with one blow.

Judging from the current state of the war, the situation of the war will inevitably continue to drag on.

The longer the delay, the more problems will be exposed by both sides, further highlighting the ability gap between the two sides and reducing the chances of winning.

So Ying Chengcheng decided to target Pang Xuan's age!

The two are like two chess players playing against each other.

Ying Chengcheng is a talented novice who has only been practicing for two and a half years.

Pang Xuan is a veteran who has accumulated a lot of experience and has dominated the chess world for 70 years.

When he couldn't find a way to turn the game in the chess game, Ying Chengcheng decided to look beyond the chessboard.

For example, stealing the opponent's takeaway, so that the opponent is unable to fight again due to low blood sugar.

For example, playing a square dance at a loud volume outside the hotel where the opponent is staying, so that the opponent is in a trance due to lack of sleep and falls into the wrong chess piece.

This is the old man's tactics tailored for Pang Xuan today!

Meng Wu was dumbfounded: "How shameless! ”

Meng Wu really wanted to ask Ying Chengcheng, how did you come up with such a shameless plan?

People can't!

At least not really!

Ying Chengcheng said shamelessly: "Although it is shameless, it is useful!" ”

"So Ben will divide our army into two armies, each with 100,000 men."

"In the future, we will each command an army, each of us will command a day of battle, and then hand over to another person to rotate."

"In order to prevent the enemy army from figuring out the pattern, occasionally merge the troops or divide the troops to change generals."

"But Ben will need to be able to do it day and night, day after day, without stopping!"

Meng Wu shook his head: "Now our army is facing the Zhao and Wei coalition forces, although Pang Xuan is not energetic, but the two armies of Zhao and Wei are rotated, and Pang Xuan has enough time to rest." ”

"The general's strategy may work, but it is useless in this battle!"

Ying Cheng looked at the head of Xiuyu City with his eyes: "There is indeed a Zhao and Wei coalition army in Xiuyu City, but in today's battle, both Zhao and Wei armies are fighting, and the main generals of Zhao and Wei are also standing at the head of the city. ”

"Ben will boldly guess that the Zhao and Wei coalition forces have joined forces and commanded together."

"And the common commander is Pang Xuan!"

"And if Pang Xuan really let Wei Qi defend the city alone?"

"Wouldn't that be an opportunity to break the city!"

Meng Wu still didn't think that Ying Cheng's strategy was effective: "Pang Xuan's department is only the front army of the Zhao army. ”

"In the face of the coach's tired strategy, Pang Xuan will definitely send a message to Hu Yu and ask Hu Yu to come to help immediately."

"Once the main force of the Zhao army arrives, or even just sends an additional general to lead the division to come, the general's strategy will be ineffective!"

Ying Chengcheng smiled: "Then our army has better achieved the goal of this battle, involving more troops and generals of the Zhao army." ”

"This battle is lost, and my Great Qin is also victorious!"

"The punishment for excessive battle damage is borne by the general, and the general has nothing to worry about."

Meng Wu was persuaded, and sighed helplessly: "If you use this method, I'm afraid everyone in the world will abuse the general." ”

Ying Chengcheng looked indifferent: "Then let them scold!" ”

"This strategy is what the general thinks, so everyone in the world abuses the general, and it has nothing to do with General Meng!"

The abuse of the people of the world, will Ying Cheng Cheng care?

Won't care at all!

As long as you kill hard enough, those enemies will be so afraid that they dare not scold!

Seeing that Ying Chengcheng had a firm attitude and was ready to suffer the loss of reputation, Meng Wu had no choice but to give up: "Only! ”

Ying Chengcheng also bowed: "Next, I will be annoyed with General Meng." ”

Bidding farewell to Yingcheng, Meng Wu immediately rode back to the rear army, and sighed faintly: "I think the grandfather of this general is also a great Confucian of Qi State, and the father of this general was also a Confucian of Qi State, even if he switched to Daqin, he is also an elegant general." ”

"And now I would have done such a terrible thing!"

"Ben will be ashamed of his ancestors and ancestors!"

Under the strong pressure, Meng Wu looked at the generals and shouted in a deep voice: "Order the heavy battalion and bury the pot to make rice." ”

"Order the generals of all departments, and the whole army will line up in half an hour!"

"Prepare for the siege!"

……

did not directly withdraw the troops, Ying Chengcheng commanded the troops and horses to cover the staggered retreat.

An hour later, Ying Cheng's department finally withdrew.

Looking at the Qin army that was receding like a tide, Wei Qi breathed a sigh of relief: "The Qin army has retreated!" ”

Pang Xuan also commanded the troops who went out of the city to return to the city, but there was no smile on his face.

After the order was issued continuously, Pang Xuan's eyes were full of muttering, and he muttered to himself: "The battle is until sunrise (5:00), the morning sun will rise, but the Qin army has withdrawn?" ”

"What does Chang'anjun mean?"

Wei Qi guessed: "Xu is that the Qin army is better at night fighting, so the battle time is set at night?" ”

Seeing that Qingshe had already returned, Pang Xuan summoned Qingshe and asked directly: "How does the night combat strength of the Qin army compare with our army?" ”

Qingshe arched his hand and replied: "General Qiyu, the Qin army's night vision ability is obviously stronger than our army. ”

"Fortunately, there are not many strong ones, and they still can't read the flag clearly, so they need to use torches to give orders."

Pang Xuan frowned and stroked his beard: "In this way, what Peng Chengjun said is reasonable. ”

Reasonable, but not sufficient.

Pang Xuan still felt that something was wrong.

Night blindness is only part of the reason for the impact of night battles, is Ying Chengcheng just because his soldiers have better night vision than the soldiers of the Zhao Wei coalition army, so he chooses to fight at night?

Could it be that Ying Chengchan wants to pull himself into a field that is unfamiliar to both sides, so as to bridge the gap in the capabilities of the two sides?

Wei Qi suddenly felt excited.

General Pang praised me!

I'm improving!

Wei Qi immediately bowed his hand: "Thank you for General Pang's praise." ”

"It's dark at night, General Pang will go to rest first, and the end will organize troops to clean up the battlefield."

Pang Xuan shook his head: "It's okay." ”

"Ben will always have to hear the battle damage of our army to sleep peacefully......"

Before he finished speaking, Pang Xuan saw a hundred figures running towards Xiuyu City, and occasionally he could hear the sound of the wind blowing in his ears.

"Go first! Go first! ”

"Don't shout, sneak attack!"

"Pick up the ladder, resist the big shield, and rush forward while the enemy is unprepared!"

Hundreds of Xiandeng warriors picked up the ladders and big shields dropped by the robes of the dead in battle, and sneakily rushed towards Xiuyu City.

Pang Xuan's eyes widened, and he shouted: "Quickly go to the four gates to check and confirm whether the Qin army is coming first!" ”

Qingshe immediately received the order and galloped away.

After circling the city for a week, Qingshe didn't have time to dismount and said loudly: "General, outside the city gates on all sides, there are Qin troops who will rush to the city first!" ”

Wei Qi was stunned: "Hasn't the Qin army already withdrawn?" ”

"Why are we besieging the city again!"

Pang Xuan didn't have time to be confused, and shouted in a broken voice: "Crossbowman, stop the enemy!" ”

As the first row of crossbow arrows was fired, Qin Jun Xiandeng knew that he had been exposed, so he simply stopped hiding, and the girl ran wildly.

Taking advantage of the slack period after the fierce battle of the Zhao and Wei coalition forces, the warriors of Xiandeng actually hung the ladder directly on the city wall!

Obviously, Qin Jun was also a little incredulous.

After more than ten breaths, a Qin army rushed towards Xiuyu City.

Qingshe scolded angrily: "His mother, the thief has no virtue!" ”

"Robes, follow the generals to kill!"

Qingshe personally led his troops to block the city wall, and the Qin army also began to increase its strength.

In the blink of an eye, the temptation turned into a decisive battle again!

Wei Qi muttered: "Could it be that the withdrawal of the Qin army is fake, and it is true that our army is deceiving us to relax its vigilance?" ”

However, as the morning sun rose, Wei Qi's speculation was self-defeating.

I saw that the one who was lying outside the west gate of Xiuyu City was a new force with high spirits.

And the person standing on the command platform of the Chinese army in this army has also been replaced by a handsome uncle who is middle-aged and has an elegant temperament.

Wei Qi was shocked: "The Qin army has changed generals?!" ”

Pang Xuan looked at Meng Wu on the other side, his eyes were contemplative: "This person is the deputy general of the Qin army, the son of the late general of the Qin State, Meng Wu, the general!" ”

"If the general's expectations are correct, since your army was defeated yesterday, Chang'anjun intends to consume our army with the technique of exhausting soldiers."

"The next day will probably be the same day as today!"

"Peng Chengjun!" Pang Xuan said seriously: "The troops must be divided!" ”

"You and I should each lead a team of soldiers and horses to fight with the enemy in turn, otherwise our soldiers will definitely not be able to hold out!"

Thinking of yesterday's Yellow River fire, Wei Qi whispered in horror: "General Pang, the last general may not be able to face Chang'anjun!" ”

Pang Xuan smiled warmly: "It's okay." ”

"Then the general will lead the Zhao army to face Chang'anjun, and Peng Chengjun will lead the Wei army to face the general Mengwu."

However, the fear in Wei Qi's eyes did not diminate.

Wei Qi had never fought against Meng Wu, but Wei Qi was very familiar with Meng Fu.

How familiar is it?

Wei Qi has been able to see Meng Fu in nightmares every night for half a year!

In a battle of songs, Meng Fu beat Wei Qi to doubt his life, which was also the starting point for Wei Qi to lose his self-confidence.

Tiger father can have a dog!

Let Ben face the Son of the Devil?

Ben will be scared!

Swallowing with difficulty, Wei Qi said ashamedly: "The last general is not sure!" ”
