Chapter 333 is willing to be a lackey for the Queen Mother
Bai Jian hated Changping Jun to death, and also hated Wang Jian to death.
I think that he Bai has been working hard for Daqin for all these years, with both merit and hard work, just because he is of the same clan as Bai Qi, he has been suppressed, not only has he not been able to become a general of Ruishi, but he has fallen into the situation of being in the company of the Qiang people in Qiang.
In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there was also racial discrimination.
The princes used to regard Qin and Chu as barbarians, but later the Qin State became strong and was barely regarded as Zhuxia, but the Qin State began to discriminate against the barbarians in their own country again, and the Qiang people, Rong people, Yiqu people, and Di people were all the objects of their discrimination.
They even classified the Qiang people in detail, such as what first zero, burning, Beiyan, Beihe, Wu, Shenwolf, Zhong, Baima, yak, etc.
Among them, the yak Qiang people have arrived in today's Yunnan.
In other words, the ethnic groups in the vast areas from Longxi to Bashu to the southwest were all within the scope of Qin discrimination......
Because he has been drenched in the rain, he has torn other people's umbrellas, and because he has been discriminated against, and even bullied by other races, so discrimination against other races is even worse.
Qin's attitude towards foreign races is very simple, one word - fight!
Beat until served.
Any general who has passed the military literacy test, as soon as he looks at the military map, he knows what Wang Jian means by asking people to go to Jiangyoushu.
In fact, in all fairness, Wang Qian's arrangement does not have too much selfishness, but can be called a good person.
Obviously, Wang Jian did not have the heart to fight to the death.
From the Qin army's entry into Shu to today, among all the Qin army generals, Wang Jian has the best performance.
[You don't know how badly I was beaten by Zhao Yun in Niu Ying! Zhao Yun is awesome, let me tell you! γ
Therefore, Bai Jian faithfully carried out Wang Qian's order, led the army to make a rapid march all the way to Yunxian, joined Wang Qian, and let Wang Jian pick up his elite, and then set off to Fucheng with the army.
In terms of their ability and merit, the arrogant and arrogant are ashamed of themselves.
Wang Jian is so capable and has a background, it is just his opportunity to catch the line of King Qin!
Once he catches the line of Wang Jian and King Qin, will he not fly Huang Tengda in the future and justify Bai's name?
It's just too deceitful!
In this case, how could he not hate Changpingjun!
As a result, before the butt was hot, Changpingjun was defeated?
Even if 300,000 pigs defend Chengdu, it is impossible to lose so quickly, right?
But Changping Jun not only didn't add a sharp man to him, but just let him lead the people of the headquarters, and let Qiang Diao, who was at odds with him, be with him, isn't this a cheat?
Fortunately, the enemy is at present, and Qiang Diao is also dissatisfied with Changping Jun's arrangement, and in order to survive, he has to work closely with Bai Di, and the two support them all the way, so they finally retreated all the way to Zizhong and Niu Yuan.
Bai Ji couldn't help but have his own careful thoughts.
Bai Jian saw very clearly that it was impossible for Changping Jun, an upstart in the Chu family, to be killed, at most he would be cut off; With King Qin as a backer and many military exploits, Wang Jian may even be promoted; He is the one most likely to be scapegoated.
It is naturally impossible to make him surrender to the Yu army, after all, he thinks that he is the last backbone of the Bai family, and he wants to restore the prestige of the Bai family, his arrogance does not allow him to surrender, and he still wants to return to the Qin State.
[Play me this is! Do you want to hear if you are talking about human language? γ
What made Bai Duan even more angry was that the Qiang barbarian Qiang Diao, who was despised by him, could actually follow Wang Jian to the rear.
He really wants to follow Wang Jian to make a contribution!
He felt that with his and Wang Jian's talents, he would still be able to defend Fucheng.
It's just that it's not easy to return to Qin, and the current situation is that he may be treated as an outcast; But if he escapes first, he will be used as a scapegoat for defeat.
To put it mildly, he's an outcast!
This made Bai Ji's anger towards Wang Jian in his heart reach its peak: Why do you want Lao Tzu to be an outcast? Anyway, you have to choose someone to be an outcast, why don't you let that barbarian come? Why isn't Changping Jun, who lost the battle? Why didn't you come?
The white exhaustion mentality is going to explode.
Bai Quan, who was sold once by Changping Jun, was not completely afraid of Zhao Yun and Zhang Ren, who had never fought before, but he was afraid that he would fight hard here, but Wang Jian and others used the time he bought to escape first!
So he needs to be justified and have a good reason.
But anyone who has been on the battlefield knows how difficult it is to save the main force, abandon the city, lure the enemy into depth, ambush and counterattack in the case of being surrounded, and how high the requirements are for generals and soldiers!
Marching and fighting is not a game of sand table, you can move the chess pieces casually, and you can walk as you say!
Wang Qian's reason is that he is capable of being able to defend and be tactically flexible; The soldiers given to him by Wang Jian were only 2,000 sharp soldiers, 8,000 elite soldiers, and 5,000 slave soldiers.
At the same time, he also glanced at Wang Qiangao, who turned the tide and sent him information.
But what about after that?
The incompetent Changping Jun actually sent him and Qiang Diao to Jiangyang, the forefront of resisting the Yu army, and said unashamedly that he would let him fight and retreat to the Tuojiang defense line, attract the attention of the Yu army, lure the enemy deep, and ambush and counterattack.
[Why do you have to do such a dangerous task with strong ability?] γ
In this case, as the first batch of reinforcements to enter Shu, Bai Jian was actually dissatisfied for a long time, but he felt that this was an opportunity to make meritorious service and correct his name, so he endured it.
[Now I'm afraid that Zhao Yun's department has already converged with Zhang Ren's department to chase after him? ] You're leaving me alone to face both of them? That's a hundred thousand horses, right? γ
Qiang Diao is the descendant of the naturalized Qiang people who were beaten to the subdued, and they don't even have a surname, they can only take Qiang as their surname.
This also means that Wang Jian will not defend Fucheng. Since Wang Jian will not defend Fucheng to the death, he is a lone army far away from the poor mountains and rivers in the depths of Fucheng, Wang Jian naturally will not care.
Wang Qian's tone was very tight, and he didn't tell Bai Jian what Qiang's mission was, but Bai Jian learned the news that Qiang's subordinates had gone to Jiangyoushu from the secret report that Wang Jian had taken out his past henchmen.
He found that Wang Jian was really a great general, and it was definitely not just a private person of King Xiao Qin.
It's not impossible, it's highly likely!
Bai Duan felt very aggrieved.
He even hated the Chu family together.
However, when he was only halfway through the road, he received an urgent order from Wang Jian to lead his troops to set up camp at the junction of Fushui and Zitongshui to block the Yu army.
The reason is very simple: Bai Quan's ability is indeed stronger than Qiang's, whether it is defending or retreating, he plays well, and he stays to defend and naturally makes the best use of his talents; As for Qiang, Wang Jian used his identity as a Qiang person, and the retreat route chosen by Wang Jian had many Qiang alien races along the way, so it was undoubtedly a better choice for a person who was familiar with the Qiang people to explore the way.
This news is no less than a bolt from the blue for Bai Quan.
And Changping Jun was not only defeated, but also fled all the way after the defeat, and he didn't even have the courage to defend Chengdu, defend the city, and defend Mianzhu, if it wasn't for Wang Jian leading the troops, Changping Jun would have to escape all the way out of Bashu and give Bashu to others!
What's even more infuriating is that this information was sent by Wang Qian, and Changping Jun didn't even send him information! If it weren't for the information sent by Wang Qian, he wouldn't have known that he had been made dumplings by Yu Jun.
Isn't this fucking bullshit?
It's just that the best choice in theory is not necessarily the best choice for everyone.
[Only when Wang Jian is defeated first or finds a suitable reason to go to Changpingjun, what should I do......]
[Hey, if only I had a backer! ] γ
[It's just that now the Chu system can't vote; The king is young and has Wang Qian's bastard, so he can't vote; I had already submitted a letter of worship to LΓΌ Buwei, but he refused to accept me because I was from the Bai family...... What should I do? γ
[For the sake of the present...... Maybe the only way to take refuge in the Empress Dowager Zhao is to find a way...... It is the resourcefulness of the Empress Dowager Zhao...... Forget it, after all, it's the Queen Mother...... Moreover, it is precisely because she has no scheming and short-sightedness that she may use me more on the contrary! γ
Bai Ji couldn't help but plan for himself.
If people don't do it for themselves, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed, not to mention that he is still a pitiful little who has been "betrayed" and "abandoned" by others.
Bai Ji had already made up his mind that if he could escape, he would definitely save Zhao Ji's thigh.
He has thought of all the lines to persuade Zhao Ji: Empress Dowager Xuan has Wei Ran under her hands, Empress Dowager Huayang has Chu in her hands, and Empress Dowager Do you have a little military power in your hands? If you don't have military power, who in the world will recognize you as the queen mother? If the Queen Mother does not give up, she is willing to be a lackey for the Queen Mother!
ββ
What Bai Yu feared soon came true.
Zhao Yun and Zhang Ren's troops really joined forces.
This is not Zhao Yun's attack, but Dayu's plan, Zhao Yun destroyed the Qin army along the way, and after capturing the relevant cities, he could have gone to join Zhang Ren's department, and then threatened Fucheng and Zitong.
After all, Yu Jun didn't expect that the Qin army would be defeated so quickly!
Originally, Dong Huang and the others were still counting on Zhao Yun and Zhang Ren's troops to be able to mobilize the Qin army's troops again. As a result, Da Yu only exerted a slight force, and the Qin army was defeated.
I haven't taken off my pants yet, so you're going to be soft first?
Because the main force of the Qin army was defeated too quickly, it made the attack path of several large armies of Dayu appear extremely incongruous.
Before, Zhao Yun was also surprised by the performance of Bai Quan's department, thinking that there might be fraud in it, so he did not rush to pursue; But after easily capturing the cities along the line, Zhao Yun realized that Bai Quan's troops really wanted to escape.
Zhao Yun hurriedly pursued, and finally joined Zhang Ren's department.
The two armies finally encountered the camp of Bai Ji at the junction of Fushui and Zitongshui.
The camp was chosen on the "V" shaped delta formed by the junction of the two rivers, which was just enough to contain the two rivers.
Zhao Yun and Zhang Ren's troops tried to attack, but the effect was not good.
This is also to be expected.
If the camp is in the flood season, it is definitely self-defeating, but in this season, it is just right. Surrounded by rivers and able to hold on both sides, it is the best strategic location for this season.
"If you attack strongly, you can only find a way to get around, but the difficulty of attacking is not small; But confrontation is too time-consuming. β
Zhang Ren has a big head.
He is not afraid of this army, give him time, and he is confident that he will defeat Bai Du's troops, but this will affect his chances of attacking Fucheng to make meritorious contributions.
"The thief army is only more than 10,000 people, and choosing to defend in this place, rather than choosing to divide troops to ambush us in the complex terrain further upstream of Fushui and Zitongshui, doesn't it just show that the Qin army is insufficient? According to the information sent by His Majesty, even if the enemy army has soldiers, they are all used on the front line of Fucheng. β
Zhang Song twisted his beard and analyzed.
Not long ago, Dong Huang's army defeated the Qin army and was invincible all the way to the battle report finally reached Zhao Yun and Zhang Ren's department, and Xu Chu's calligraphy works were sent together......
Putting aside Xu Chu's snorting for the time being, Dong Huang's victory undoubtedly gave Zhao Yun and others a big reassurance, allowing them to dare to make a marching plan with confidence and boldness.
"In other words, the enemy army won't have many troops in Zitong!"
Zhao Yun's eyes lit up.
Zhang Ren also understood what Zhang Song meant.
Zitong, this is the weakest point of the Qin army, and it is also the biggest weakness and back road.
"General Zhao, what do you think?"
Zhang Ren's eyes couldn't take their eyes off the direction of Zitong on the map.
"They defend theirs, we attack ours! Let's see who's in a hurry! β
Zhao Yun also quickly thought of a way to break the game.
After the convergence of Zhao Yun's department and Zhang Ren's department, the Yu army in this direction has reached 150,000 people, of which about half of the elite of the legion, and Zhao Yun thinks to himself that the fanatical army under his command will definitely be able to fight with the sharp soldiers of the Qin army, in this case, what are you afraid of? Naturally, he used the advantage of his strength to bully others!
"On both sides of the Fushui, 25,000 people can be arranged to camp on each side, and a naval army will be arranged to monitor the movements of the enemy camp, and the main force will advance directly to the east of Zitong Water and go straight to Zitong, and see what the Qin army should do when the time comes?"
Zhang Song smiled ugly.
The ugliness here refers specifically to his ugliness.
Under normal circumstances, the march will not leave a single enemy behind, because there is a risk that the grain route will be cut off and the rear road will be cut off. But the art of war is alive, the specific battle situation should be seen according to the specific situation, if the Yu army goes to Zitong along the Zitong River, even if the grain road is really cut off, and the army can not capture Zitong in time, then it is a big deal to go to Fucheng and the Dayu siege troops to converge!
Anyway, the Qin army has no soldiers, so it is impossible to stop it!
If the Qin army really dared to go out of the city to pursue in the field, it would be even better.
Now, those who should be afraid of field battles have become the Qin army!
The Yu army, which has enough troops and a great strategic advantage, has too many choices.
To put it mildly, even if the current Yu army loses 100,000 and 200,000 troops, it still has an absolute advantage over the Qin army in Shuzhong, and even if the Qin army loses 10,000 elites, it may collapse on all fronts.
The hole card gap is too big.
Zhao Yun and others immediately decided to leave part of the men and horses to hold Fushui and monitor the Qin army, and the main force of 100,000 troops marched directly along the east bank of Zitong Water to Zitong.
"The general is not good, the Yu army actually divided the troops directly in the direction of Zitong."
Qin Ruishi's two or five hundred masters reported.
Wang Jian left a total of 2,000 sharp soldiers for Bai Quan, and there were exactly two two or five hundred masters. They are all Wang Qian's henchmen.
"What!"
Bai Ji was shocked: "How is this good?" β
Bai Jian looked at the two two five hundred lords and other henchmen, and frowned: "Zitong absolutely cannot afford to lose, I have made up my mind, and I will personally lead the army to support Zitong." But there is no room for loss here, otherwise General Wang Jian will be in danger there!
The two leaders stay here, I will give two more 3,000 elites, and 5,000 slave soldiers will also be left for two, the two must hold here to ensure the safety of General Wang's flank, and I will personally lead 5,000 men and horses to ambush in front of the Yu army! β
Bai Ji directly ordered the two two five hundred lords.
"No!"
The two glanced at each other, and could only receive the military order.
The official level crushes people to death, even if it is exhausted, in the face of Wang Qian's military order, he can only come here to set up camp and defend first, although he is careful, he does not dare to show it; The two two or five hundred lords naturally did not dare to disobey Bai Quan's military orders, otherwise Bai Duan would not only kill them directly, but even their families would suffer.
However, these two two or five hundred lords did not feel that there was anything wrong with the arrangement of Bai Quan, but were eager to try to be able to take charge of themselves.
As we all know, the system is mixed, and seniority is important. Especially in the Qin Army, a thriving corps that attaches great importance to military merits, officers of the same rank, one with independent command experience in major wars and one without the slightest experience in major wars, in other cases with the same background, it is obvious which one to promote first.
Looking at their eager appearance, Bai Quan, who still had a serious and resolute face, secretly disdained in his heart: a wild man is a wild man, and he is really a fool who doesn't understand anything!
Bai Jian actually used a plan at the beginning, but no one could see the officers and soldiers under his command now.
Under normal circumstances, Bai Quan's camp seems to be fine, but in fact, the problem is big, that is, there is no threat to the Yu army on the other side of the river, and it can't block the way for the Yu army to attack Zitong and Fuxian along the other side of Zitong Water and Fushui, and at most it can only cut off its back road.
However, what if the other side did not attack with the whole army, but left the soldiers to watch the Qin army camp? Or, the other party doesn't need a way back at all?
You must know that the Yu army has more than ten times the advantage of troops! With this advantage in strength, Bai Quan's side is not the kind of dangerous pass such as the Sword Pavilion where there is only one road and must be crossed, why should Yu Jun fight here?
Under normal circumstances, the best way is to set up three barracks across the river, directly block the road, and connect the three barracks with pontoon bridges and other means to facilitate the deployment of troops and support.
Wang Jian is not a fool, he knows very well that the exhaustion of these troops will only last for a month or two at most, after all, the troops are insufficient.
But these mud legs who have no professional education and only rely on courage and luck to kill, obviously don't know how much knowledge there is in the camp alone, they just think that the location of Bai Qian is very good, there is no problem with the layout, and Bai Duan is very strong.
Even now that he has been placed in the palace, he feels that this may be an opportunity!
Scold!
After arranging Wang Qian's henchmen and the 3,000 soldiers assigned to him, who were originally Qiang Diao's subordinates, Bai Qian personally led his henchmen and horses who had been with him for a year or two to rush to Zitong lightly.
This wave, he is in the atmosphere.
When Wang Jian thought that he was defending to the death, when the sharp soldiers sent to him by Wang Jian thought that he was going to ambush and block the Yu army, and when the Yu army also thought that his plan had succeeded and successfully mobilized the Bai Jian Division, Bai Jian thought that it was time for the Bai Jian Department to run all the way from Jiangyang to Zizhong, Niuyuan, and then to Yunxian County to run here with extraordinary speed and strong marching ability, and once again ran out of the acceleration of escaping, and actually escaped into Zitong City two hours in advance, one step ahead of the Yu army.
No, how can it be said that it is an escape, it is obviously to save Zitong City and Changping Jun at all costs.
Looking at the little 4,000 people who ran back in front of Bai Ji's department, Changping Jun didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
He hurriedly ordered his subordinates to prepare for defense, and sent someone to inform Wang Jian of the information.
Of course, until this time, Changping Jun still thought that Bai Duan was a great loyalty, not to flee without a fight, but to come to the aid when the troops were not in charge.
And Changping Jun still has to rely on Bai Jian and his subordinates to help defend the city!
Changping Jun only has 1,000 sharp soldiers and 2,000 elites under his command, and the remaining county soldiers and slave soldiers are only stronger than the old, weak, sick and disabled cannon fodder, and he has no bottom in his heart.
Here, Changping Jun has just rearranged the city defense, and Zhao Yun and Zhang Ren have already brought a small 100,000 soldiers and horses over there.
Zhao Yun and Zhang Ren's troops only let the soldiers repair slightly, then besieged the city on three sides, began to build siege equipment, made a posture of attacking the city, and also sent Qin prisoners to persuade them to surrender.
The people in Zitong City were panicked.
Knowing that the Dayu army would not slaughter the city or torture the prisoners of war, it would be a question mark to question how many soldiers in the city, especially those old and weak women and children, still had to fight.
Zhang Song also viciously asked the captives to hold a loudspeaker under the city and shout: Don't fall for Changping Jun's tricks, they want to dye their titles red with your blood! Why don't you think of your family when you enjoy the brocade clothes and food, and you want your family to be in front of you when you are in a bloody battle! Family, don't be deceived again......
In short, a sentence of hometown dialect, a sentence of family.
It's a simple tactic, but it's extremely effective when the morale of the army is shaken.
After such a wave of operations, not to mention ordinary people, even county soldiers and even many sharp soldiers and elites don't want to fight.
It was their relatives who died in the war, and it was their homes that were destroyed, so it would be better if they could see the hope of victory, but the question is where is the hope of victory.
Especially in the case of the general who led the troops, Changping-kun.
Now there is no Qin army soldier who has confidence in Changping Jun anymore.
Because he was afraid that these pawns would talk nonsense again, Changping Jun, who was embarrassed and angry, directly commanded and manipulated the bed crossbow and shot two dead, and immediately frightened the pawns to scatter and flee.
However, not long after, these soldiers were forced to change directions and continue to be angry: Zhiniang thief, the Yu people didn't kill us, you, the general of the defeated army who killed hundreds of thousands of sons and daughters of Great Qin, and the king of Runaway, actually wanted to kill us! I've never seen anyone so brazen! In the future, I'll call you Bear Run!
Bear Run, you shameless!
The faces of the Chu people have been lost by you!
Qin Guo's face has also been lost by you!
Changpingjun: ......
"Poofβ"
Changping Jun spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted on the city.
The aristocracy of this era attached great importance to fame.
Changping Jun is even more of a nobleman among nobles.
Changping Jun, who was already ashamed of his defeat, actually had the idea of dying a long time ago, but he was suppressed by him, and he wanted to wait for the opportunity to be ashamed, but this time he ......
Changping Jun, who woke up, looked at the inexplicable soldiers around him, and pulled out the sharp blade on his waist: "The kid is not afraid of death, but he actually wants to atone for his crimes, in case all the land of Shu falls into the hands of the Yu army, and now that General Bai has arrived, Zitong will be handed over to the general!" Please make sure to hold out until reinforcements arrive! The boy deserves to die to apologize. β
After that, Changping Jun drew his sword and killed himself.
"Don't be a prince!"
Changping Jun's drawing of his sword stunned Bai Quan.
Lao Tzu is still waiting for you to be a scapegoat, what should I do if you die? Besides, what do you mean by digging a pit for me when you are dying! With your words, I can't insist on the arrival of reinforcements, isn't it my responsibility again?
And you are the prince of Chu and the king of Changping of Great Qin, and you have to apologize for your defeat with death, what about me?
Bai couldn't hold it anymore.
Directly carried the sword that Changping Jun put on his neck with his arm.
At this time, several of Changping Jun's war agents also reacted, hugged Changping Jun one after another, and persuaded: "The prince can't be!" β
"The victorious and defeated soldiers are unexpected!"
"If the prince dies, who will avenge the hatred of the country?"
These doormen are more panicked than Bai Quan.
According to the atmosphere of this era, the lord humiliates his ministers to death, they are the disciples of Changping Jun, and Changping Jun committed suicide in shame, what about them? Are you going to kill yourself too? If it's not good, you have to go out and fight to the death of Yu Jun on the battlefield, right? Otherwise, in front of everyone's eyes, their reputation will be stinky, don't want to mix in the Qin State, and they may even be killed and buried by the Chu family......
It's also difficult for the war agents!
[What is the origin of this bullshit! How can you defeat Daqin! This is not scientific! γ
Now the war agent of the Qin State is really eager to pull Dong Huang out and ride a wooden donkey!
