Chapter 1000: Beggar-thy-neighbor
When the soldiers went out of Jinyang, they counted the soldiers under their command and found that counting the newly recruited soldiers and people, there were only 30,000 people who could be dispatched, and Han Xin couldn't help but blurt out and scold.
"The strategists of the Winged Battalion, it's really bad for me!"
From March to June, when the main force of the Qin army in the south gradually pressed against the Chu state, the situation on the northern battlefield also changed dramatically.
At the end of March, Zhao general Li Zuoche made a decision, sending out the 40,000 Zhao troops trapped in Taiyuan County and being surrounded by Han Xin at any time, to launch an attack on Jingcheng, and after breaking the thousands of people deployed by Chen Sheng, they entered Hengshan County, which was "in chaos".
At the same time, Chen Yu also convened the Hengshan Zhao people to oppose Chen Sheng in Kucheng, and under the attack of the two sides, Chen Sheng was defeated by Li Zuoche and could only give up Hengshan County, go north to Yandi, and divide Yanxia Duyi County.
There will be gains and losses, and the direct consequence of this is that Zhao completely abandoned Taiyuan County, and Han Xinbing took over there without blood, and once again surrendered a large number of Zhao pawns who had been released in Changping.
In April, after Han Xin occupied Taiyuan, while adding troops to Jingcheng, he sent to capture Lishi, and was promoted to the "Du Lieutenant" of the Infant Irrigation Department to the east of Taihang, it turned out that Xia Gong had gone out of Hangu Guandong, and Hanoi Zhao would Sima Wei surrender to Qin, Han Xin wanted to let the Infant go north from Hanoi, if so, Li Zuoche had to face the north, west, and south three sides.
This is the intention to completely destroy the Zhao State.
However, just as Guan Ying and Zhou Bo and others arrived in Hanoi with the chariot and cavalry troops from Xinqinzhong, they received an order from the Duke of Xia from Luoyang, asking him to attack Dongjun from Baimajin, cooperate with the Hou Dongmen Leopard in Guannei, and destroy the Wei State first!
This is the strategy formulated by Xia Gong and the feather wing battalion, and it is theoretically good, what "Puyang North and South Confucius, now Dongjun, is the chest and abdomen of the world, and the destruction of Wei and the Dongjun is the spine of Shandong!" ”
However, in Han Xin's view, Chu and Wei can be eliminated by the main forces of the Central Plains, and he can deploy troops to focus on sweeping the Zhao Dynasty to the north, as well as to accept the so-called "Fusu" Zhaowang regime......
What's more, Han Xinsu had a gap with the Dongmen Leopard, and transferred the command that belonged to him to the Dongmen Leopard, which looked like Xia Gong was pulling the side of the generals in this contest of destroying the country.
"In fact, it was I who annihilated the main force of the Wei army in Hedong, but in the end, the name of destroying Wei was easily obtained by the Dongmen Leopard." Han Shin was indignant about this.
However, Han Xinzong was the commander of the entire Hebei Theater, and the priority of the military order was still under Xia Gong, who had already made up his mind to force Guan Ying to attack Wei, and Han Xin's men suddenly lost more than 10,000 people, and they had to divide troops to occupy Taiyuan, Shangdang, and Hanoi, and there were many fewer soldiers for attacking Handan, and his plan to destroy Zhao would undoubtedly be greatly delayed.
Han Xin was inevitably a little uncomfortable, and he couldn't complain that the invincible Xia Gong "can't fight", so his anger shifted to the group of guys in the Feather Wing Battalion, thinking that it was their bad idea, and even blurted out a new idiom of his own creation while cursing.
"They talk on paper! It's really like Zhao Kuo! ”
In late May, he forcibly crossed Baimajin and launched a fierce attack on the Wei state, which had only one eastern county left, and in mid-June, he joined the Dongmen leopard in Puyang, the capital of Wei......
……
In everyone's eyes, baby irrigation is tantamount to a star that has risen rapidly this year.
"After all, it was the ...... who saved the little lord" Someone in the army whispered like this, but they did not mean to despise it, but were very envious.
Because of the merits of sheltering Xia Gong's eldest son in the North, the little-known Guan Bao in the past has been labeled as the "Big Zi Party", and the rapid promotion of Guan Ying is certainly due to a series of merits, but it must also be related to this.
In July and August last year, in the battle to rescue the new Qinzhong, he covered the transfer of the Shuofang army and civilians to Henan, and afterwards went to Xianyang to receive the knighthood, and became the five doctors and military Sima in one breath, and was also summoned by Xia Gong alone, praising him for his "sharp and sharp", so he handed over the chariot and cavalry troops organized by the people of the new Qin to him as commander, and then he broke away from Zhang Han and was transferred to Han Xin's hands.
In the winter of the first year of the regency, in the battle of Hedong, Guan Ying crossed the river to collect and surrender the salt pond, conquered several counties, and cooperated with Han Xin to outflank the Pusaka Wei army, achieved a great victory, and was promoted to the rank of captain, and the right chief of the knighthood.
After the beginning of spring, Guan Ying returned to Shangjun, from the stone crossing river to attack Zhao, although did not make great contributions, but also broke the Lou Fu cavalry subordinate to the Zhao army, born Lou Fu will be ten people, field beheaded two thousand, and then promoted to the left watch.
And now, a year ago, he was still a small horseman, and he only had 200 people under his command, and he couldn't have imagined that now he would have the credit of "destroying the country" at the level of "destroying the country......
"Puyang can go down, and Wei can die!"
Dongmen Leopard is gearing up, although the Six Kingdoms are broken, but none of them have been destroyed by the Qin army so far, even Han Xin has only annihilated the main force of Zhao Wei, and now this honor is about to fall on his head.
Therefore, the East Gate Leopard ordered the soldiers to set up siege equipment, day and night to storm Puyang, this big city called "Emperor Hill", was originally the capital of the Wei State, and later Wei was vassalized by the Wei State, moved to the Yewang, after the Qin State seized this land, it was named "East County" after it lived in the east of the river. Throughout the reign of Qin Shi Huang, the most famous thing in this county is that in the thirty-sixth year, a meteorite fell in Dongjun!
The seven characters of "the first emperor died and divided" carved on the stone shows that there are not a few people who hate Qin in this county, and it is they who supported Zhang Er and Wei Bao and restored Wei for the second time.
Now, these anti-Qin diehards are trapped in Puyang City, led by Wei Xiang Zhang Er, who has been rushing all the way east, to do the last battle of the trapped beasts......
Now the Zhao State north of the Great River, the Chu State in the south are difficult to protect themselves, Peng Yue in the east has recently switched to Qin, Puyang has been isolated and helpless, the only variable is its northern Baili Dunqiu, there are still Zhang Er's son Zhang Ao, and Wei Gongzi ignorant of more than 10,000 light warrior armies.
Dongmen Leopard was disdainful of them: "I can't wait for Zhang Ao and Wei Wuzhi to come to help, so that the remnants of Wei can be completely annihilated, what can they do?" ”
Guan Ying was careful, but reminded Dongmen Leopard: "Dare to speak up to the prince, after I crossed east from Baimajin, I have heard the locals talk about a past, trapped beasts are still fighting, if they are desperate, they must ......not be prevented."
……
"Zhao and Chu are fighting their own battles, and they can't protect themselves, so they can't save Wei, so what can they do?"
In Dunqiu City, Wei Wuzhi, the grandson of Xinling Jun, had run out of ideas.
Since the withdrawal of troops from Xihe last year, the Six Kingdoms have been destroyed step by step, especially the Wei State, Zhang Er and his son coveted Hedong and Shangdang, and transferred troops there, thinking that they could hold it for a while. Unexpectedly, within a few months, the main force was lost, and the Qin army had already attacked Dongjun.
The collapse is like a riverbank in the middle of summer, collapsing little by little, and finally being invaded by water.
The reason why Wei did not die was because the Qin army's Xihe division took brutal revenge in Hedong, slaughtered Wei pawns, and killed more than 20,000 prisoners.
Now that Wei Xiang and the King of Wei are trapped in the city, Wei Wuzhi has collected several counties of light heroes, but there are only more than 10,000 people, and they are a rabble with little training, and they have to face more than 30,000 Qin troops, and they feel invincible.
There was a precedent for the Qin army to slaughter the Wei people, and he did not dare to surrender lightly, and in desperation, Wei Wuzhi was already thinking about crossing the river and going to the Zhao State, which was still surviving.
Zhang Ao was furious: "Jun is the son of Wei, following the name of Xinling Jun, but my father was just an ordinary Wei Min, and now my father is willing to live and die with Wei, but the prince wants to abandon him, what is the reason?" ”
Wei Wuzhi defended: "I can't save Puyang in the end, and the army will be killed in vain, if we blindly save it, it will be tantamount to using meat to starve the tiger, what is the benefit?" ”
"No, there's another way!"
Zhang Ao dragged Wei Wuzhi to the head of Dunqiu City, and pointed to the Taotao River more than ten miles away to the west.
In the south of Dunqiu, there are many thick ravines, separating the plain from the big river, it is the height of summer, the hundred rivers irrigate the river, the river water swells, the turbid water soaks to the side of the ravine, and constantly beats - this is not only the barrier set up by the beggar-thy-neighbor of the Qi and Zhao states in those years, but also the shackles to prevent the sleeping dragon that stretches for thousands of miles from re-furying.
If you look closely, you will find that in some sections of the river, the water level of the big river is already higher than the plain......
"You don't want to ......"
Wei Wuzhi suddenly understood Zhang Ao's plan, and his face was shocked.
"That's the only way left."
Zhang Ao's eyes were vicious, and his words were resolute:
"Since I can't save my father by manpower, I can't save the Wei country."
"Then we can only rely on the power of natural creation, replace the soldiers with water, and die with them, not to mention 30,000, even if it is 100,000 people, let them all be buried in the belly of the fish!"
