"What? Release? ”

As soon as Han Xin's words came out, everyone in the account, from Qu Ji, Zhao Yan, to the winged men in charge of staff and military affairs, were surprised and inexplicable, this was an option that had never appeared in their imagination.

In this world, there are only enough captives and beheadings, how can anyone be put back after the battle? Even if the nobles were released in the Spring and Autumn Period, would it be in exchange or for ransom?

"Don't be a general, let the enemy get into trouble!"

There is even Captain Luo Jia said distressedly: "The captives are good at war, and if you let them go, there will be nothing?" How to explain to the soldiers? ”

At the beginning, it was a military judge who stood up to refute this statement:

"The severed head is also buried or burned afterwards, and after it is burned, the soldier's first merit is not counted?"

"In the same way, the new "Military Lordship Law" says that after a captive is captured, he will be tried by a military judge and sentenced to death, a subordinate, or released, depending on the crime of the prisoner."

"Those prisoners who were released last are not counted as the soldiers who captured them? How can there be such a reason, Luo Duwei, don't spread rumors! ”

Luo Jia didn't dare to speak, and after approaching Han Xin, he said in a low voice: "Could it be that General Han wants to follow the regent's story of deliberately releasing prisoners at Wuguan last year, so that his generation was closed and could only join the Northern Expedition?" But Zhao is not inferior to Guanzhong, even if he is released, his generation will not be grateful, and it is impossible for our army to use it, I'm afraid it will not be easy to follow suit......"

Indeed, the Zhao people are different from Wang Benjun's soldiers, which is called the brother wall, and there are a few people sitting in the tent at the moment, which is the general of the day.

Qin and Zhao, on the other hand, are neighbors who have been feuding for generations.

"I don't expect them to be used by me, I just hope that their return can eliminate the Zhao people's desire to fight to the death."

Han Xin said: "I will taste the matter of hiding Wu Anjun in the Imperial History Mansion. ”

It is an article about King Qin Zhao's resignation after the people and the army, but he insisted on fighting the battle of Handan, and as a result, he lost.

Because it involves a lot of black spots of King Qin Zhao, it is naturally not accepted by the official historians of the Qin State who have always reported good news and not bad news.

After the Battle of Changping, followed by the Battle of Handan, the Qin army came to Handan after a few months of rest, but was surprised to find that the spirit of the people of Zhao was completely different from that of Changping......

"Grazor the armor to benefit its strength, and increase the city and pond to benefit its solidity. The main section is below his ministers, and the ministers are below the dead. As for the genus of the Plains King, they all made their wives and concubines mend the seams between the ranks. The ministers are single-minded, and they work together from top to bottom, and they are still trapped in the meeting......"

The reason is that the tragic appearance of the First Battle of Changping made all the Zhao people have the heart of death: surrender is death, war is death, and the country can die?

By chance, a country that had been loose and slack for a long time was clenched into a fist under the threat of death.

Handan has become a hard bone, united as one, and the Qin army has not taken it down for several years in a row. In the end, it was dragged to Chu Wei to rescue, and then it was the most inexplicable defeat in the history of Qin - the invincible Qin army under Bai Qi a few years ago was beaten by the coalition army, defeated all the way, lost hundreds of miles, and even surrendered under the leadership of Zheng Anping......

Han Xin liked the art of war and was fascinated by the art of using soldiers in Bai Qi's past, and this defeat made a deep impression on him.

He said solemnly: "At present, although I am wading into the big river, Dinghe East, in one fell swoop, Changping, Zhu Lu Goujian, captured Zhao 40,000 people, and Zhao Guo's military strength went to half of it. However, our army has been fighting continuously, and everyone has stopped. ”

"If you blindly slaughter Zhao at the moment, the Zhao people will be frightened and regard me as a cannibal tiger and wolf, and I will fight to the death. At that time, we will not face tens of thousands of Zhao pawns, Zhao kings and their generals, but millions of Zhao people! ”

If, in the words of Hefu, he is trapped in the vast sea of the masses of the people, and he has to push those who can be won over to the other side's camp, why bother......

"If you don't screen the blind slaughter, you are really helping Li Zuoche, raising tired soldiers, under the fortified city of Taiyuan and Handan, I am afraid that I will repeat the mistakes of the battle of Handan that year, I can't pull out my strength for a long time, I see that the situation is abandoned, and the food is exhausted."

"The regent said that this battle is a battle of Dingyi, not a battle of revenge, and it is understandable that the Xihe army killed the Wei people, but at the moment, the captured Zhao people did not participate in the Xihe massacre, and it is better to use the regent's method to ......kill them than to kill them."

After a long time, everyone gradually understood what kind of battle Heifu liked to fight the most.

"A soldier who surrenders without a fight, and a good man who is good."

"Go to the army to fight and strategize, and attack the heart first."

Since it was a creative application of Hef's theory, not only did it go to the disease, but the staff officers of the feather battalion were also somewhat convinced.

Only Captain Zhao Yan was worried: "I'm afraid that after these Zhao pawns go back, they will be reorganized and become enemies of our army."

"There's no time."

Han Xin said with a smile: "The generals and lieutenants of the other generation have long been screened, detaining these people and breaking up their establishment, even if Zhao has 40,000, it is also a plate of loose sand, even if it is me, it will take several months to reorganize the training and fight again, but Zhao Guo, can he live for so long?" ”

In time, it was extinguished by its fear, and the death knell of Zhao Guo had been sounded by Han Xin himself, and there were few sounds!

"What's more, can you know the frightened bird?"

After Han Xin finished telling the story he heard from Lu Jia, he said: "Since Zhao Shu has been released once, the next time he fights, knowing that our army will not kill prisoners, he will no longer have the will to fight, and he will collapse at the first touch." Relying on these 40,000 frightened birds, it is enough to make all the Zhao people lose the heart to fight to the death......"

The fewer people who are willing to fight to the death, the faster Han Xin's countdown to destroy Zhao will turn.

What's more, these Zhao people are not put in one direction.

"A batch of escorts to Gaodu, and then to the south, let them go to Taihang."

"A batch of eastern Danshui to make it enter the Baicheng ......"

These Zhao pawns are like panicked birds, flying in a familiar direction - crossing Taihang and going home, and there are only two closest ways to return home.

"Our army will send 5,000 troops each, and take advantage of them to make the spies mix in it, and see if we can seize the two dangerous passes of Tianjing Pass and Mengmen Sai in one fell swoop."

Taihang and Bai, the second and third Taihang Mountains respectively, are the passage from Shangdang to Hanoi County, and it is time to take it in your hands.

According to Han Xin's knowledge, there were no more than 10,000 Zhao troops in Hanoi County, but they had to defend Taihang Sanshan, and they had to take care of the long north bank of the Great River, and beware of the forced crossing of the Dongmen Leopard Army. The most terrible thing is that the people of Hanoi were the key to helping Qin win the Battle of Changping back then, and they were regarded as the "new Qin people" and good citizens of Qin.

Now that Zhao Wei is weak, there are many more forces in Hanoi who want to join Qin, and they have been passed by Li Shiqi, and even Sima Mao himself is also between the two......

Use the soldiers to bring the news of the "defeat of the Zhao army", and then capture the two provinces, put some pressure on Sima Mao, and force Hanoi to surrender, or cooperate with the Dongmen Leopard to capture this county, so that the three rivers are completely connected.

"The last batch, go north, out of Changping Pass, and go to the eldest son."

Han Xin will follow closely with the main force, with the scattered Zhao pawn as the forward, even if Li Zuoche wants to come to the party to fight to the death, the first thing to face is the disorderly, headache-giving collapse of his own side, Han Xin wishes that he would come to the troubled waters.

Even if Li Zuoche does not come, after occupying Shangdang, Han Xin will also have a complete advantage, the north can besiege Taiyuan, the south can take Hanoi as the rear, and the east can directly break through Huguan and attack Handan......

As for the damage that hungry and foodless soldiers will do to the place, and how many will they die along the way? It's none of Han Shin's business.

What he cares about is the process of his generation's escape, how much trouble he can save himself, how many fighters he can create, and in the end, even if only one-tenth of the people can return to the Zhao country, it is enough to make the entire Handan people confused.

Luck is deadlier in war than fear!

Han Xin's plan was finally approved by the Wing Battalion, and they would be responsible for the specific operation, but at this time, Captain Zhao Yan said:

"Although the general is a good plan, but for such a big matter, I'm afraid I have to reply to Xianyang, and ask for instructions on the regent."

"There's no time!"

Han Xin shook his head categorically: "When the regent worshiped the general, he personally held the head and gave me his handle, saying: 'From now on, the one who goes up to heaven will be the general.'" ''Handle the axe was restored, and the blade was given, saying: 'Whoever goes down to the abyss from now on, the general will control it.'' 'When you see the false, you advance, and when you see the truth, you stop. ”

"The fighter plane is fleeting, and the military rations are becoming more and more empty, a trip back and forth to Xianyang, the situation will change dramatically, and Han Xin can only make a decision immediately!"

The more this is the case, as Han Xin's cronies, the more worried Zhao Yan is.

In Zhao Yan's heart, he proposed to kill the prisoners, in addition to eliminating future troubles, so that the army could easily go on the road and complete the plan to seize the party, but also let Han Xin defile himself!

He didn't dare to say it at the time, but he secretly muttered in his heart: "Didn't the regent rely on the Qi people who killed and rebelled in Jiaodong back then to gain the complete trust of Qin Shi Huangdi?" ”

In Zhao Yan's view, Han Xin's young man was ambitious, and he was in charge of the army alone in Hebei, with 80,000 or 90,000 people under his command, and he won two games in a row, and he was about to have the merit of sealing the Marquis, and I am afraid that the merit will be difficult to reward in the future. Even if the regent trusts him again, there should be villains in the DPRK and China to slander him, so it is better to kill prisoners to show that he has no intention of supporting troops in Hebei and buying people's hearts......

But right now, Han Xin has chosen a method that is most likely to make the fighting spirit of the Zhao army collapse and destroy the Zhao State at the lowest cost.

But it is also the most likely to be criticized as "buying people's hearts".

Seeing that Han's confidence had been decided, Zhao Yan secretly sighed and retired.

"General Han, General Han, you really don't think about yourself at all......"

……

The plan was set, but he looked at the Danshui Valley in front of him, and was a little stunned, it is said that 400,000 lives were buried here, although there don't seem to be so many of them now.

"Should Wu Anjun do the same back then?" He said suddenly.

Han Xin was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "That's 400,000." ”

"And that's forty thousand."

"My choice is ten times easier than Wu Anjun......"

Soldiers, the major affairs of the country, the place of death and life, and the way of survival, must not be overlooked.

A good commander will not think about how to pity the enemy and reduce the damage.

He just needs to think about how to win the war at the minimum cost!

So in essence, Han Xin and Bai Qi are no different, no matter what their identity and temperament are on weekdays, but once they are on the battlefield, they are all cold-blooded animals called "soldiers", in order to win, they will do whatever it takes, the difference is only the means of the situation.

The soldier only needs to walk through the Shura field (narrator, don't take it seriously), but the general ......

The general has to incarnate Shura himself! Opening and closing your mouth is related to the life and death of ten thousand people; If you hesitate, you will lose!

Only in this way can we survive a hundred battles and be named the god of war and the immortal of soldiers.

And sometimes, fake kindness is also a tactic to defeat the enemy.

This is what Han Shin learned from Heifu......

"And at that time, it was two countries that were combined, but now, it seems that the two countries are very different, just like ......"

Han Xin was exhausted, and after thinking about it for a long time, he remembered the scene when his wife kneaded the dough at home, so he made an analogy.

"It's like the dough has been kneaded together with water."

"Even if it's separated, it's much easier to close it again than when it's still dry."

"And Wu Anjun, but I added a lot of water to this basin......"

Going to the disease thoughtfully, he added, "No...... It's the addition of blood, in this world, it is Wu Anjun and many generals, who rely on the blood shed by killing millions of people, and then by Qin Shi Huang with a big wave of his hand, and the face of Hecheng......"

Qin Shi Huang rolled his sleeves and kneaded the dough, and the picture seemed to be a little disobedient, but fortunately, now the kneading person has been replaced by a rough man like Heifu, which seems to be more matched......

It is necessary to give Bai Qi a meritorious service, but it is undeniable that along with the blood and water of the sea, there is also a dead knot.

Fifty years ago, while Bai Qi eliminated the armed forces of Zhao and laid the foundation for Qin to destroy Zhao, he also tied 450,000 dead knots in Changping......

Fifty years have passed, and the body has turned into bones, which still cannot be dissolved, and it is difficult to touch the Qin Dynasty's rule for more than ten years.

He sighed with emotion: "Today, I released 40,000 Zhao pawns, and I dare not say that I will untie the death knot in one go." ”

"But at least it's a good start! The world is determined, and Zhuxia has a good start to let go of grudges! ”

Han Xin laughed: "That's right, the knot that Wu Anjun tied in the past." ”

"Today, I, a soldier, learned to solve the ......"

"Not really."

But with an unquestionable tone, he corrected Han Xindao, who was a little proud:

"Although General Han is a good soldier, in the final analysis, the person who really unravels this dead knot is the regent, the regent's wisdom and kindness, and his heart for the world!"

"Any enterprising victory of ours can only be achieved under the wise leadership of Xia Gong, the regent of Great Qin, and I hope General Han will keep this in mind!"
