Chapter 248: Survival and Death Can Be Mixed with Muddy (Part II)
It is easy for the princes to send troops together.
From a distance, Candle Zhiwu retreated from Qin, and the Qin and Jin coalition forces had their own thoughts, and in the end, Zheng Guo survived; In the battle of Jinyang, the three anti-Zhao families turned out to be stabbed by their allies.
Han Zhao's Wei succession to intervene in the war, which should have appeared in history and is now impossible, is also similar.
Originally, in history, as soon as Wei was killed, Gongzi claimed to have a strong claim that Han Zhao sent troops to interfere in the Wei inheritance war, and Zhao wanted to kill Wei; Korea wanted to weaken the Wei state, which caused the Han and Zhao families to curse each other.
Zhao Guo scolded South Korea for being short-sighted and insincere, and Zheng Guo, who had not digested and swallowed, had no intention of containing Wei before, and his short-sightedness would inevitably suffer disaster in the future.
South Korea scolded Zhao for being ambitious, and Zhao Guo was going to invade the Central Plains when the time came, South Korea said that Zhao was treating South Korea as a fool, why did South Korea want to fulfill Zhao's wish to do Wei?
The two families scolded each other for a day, but as a result, they retreated in anger, and the Wei State survived, and finally there was a battle in which the Wei State besieged Handan and Sun Bin Tianji became famous.
The situation is somewhat similar now, but it is not quite the same. That was before the big victory, and now it's before the big defeat, it's different.
Just when Han Qi's ministers scolded each other, Sun Zhongzi, a close minister of the Son of Heaven, got up and said: "If the situation is in danger today, the universe is upside down, and the Mo family is the enemy of the princes. At this time, if you are together, you will live, and if you divide you, you should not curse and regret at this time, but should discuss the strategy of retreating! ”
From the Son of Heaven to the close ministers, no one chose to fight in the field after hearing that the northeast direction might be the main force of the Mo family, because they were afraid and did not dare to fight in the field at all.
All that is to be discussed is the withdrawal of troops, and the direction of withdrawal.
The siege of Shangqiu by the army has just begun, and it will take at least a day and a half to regain it.
The siege of the city is not about tens of thousands of troops squatting together, but about dividing into many camps, digging and building fortifications to prepare grass and trees.
This is a siege formation, if you want to withdraw the troops, you need to gather the troops first, and withdraw in order, otherwise it is likely to turn into a rout.
Now the forward of the main force of the Mo family is already forty miles away, and the main force is about sixty miles at most, if it is forced to march, it will be able to reach it in two days.
Now, every moment of delay is more dangerous.
The state of Qi was inclined to return along the same path now, while the South Koreans were inclined to go south to meet the Han army in Yangxia, twist into a ball, and withdraw from the Yangxia breakout.
Seeing that Sun Zhongzi said this, Qi Ren restrained his cynical tone and said to Han Ren: "Now there is still a Mo family's army near Yangxia. Before the three thousand Zhao people were annihilated, Duan Duan thought that it was the judgment that it was the main force left behind in Sishang. ”
"If you go south, retreat into Xu ...... through Yangxia It's hard. ”
"What if the Mojia division near Yangxia is intercepted by Hongshui halfway? Once intercepted for two days, the main force of the Mo family will follow up, and the 60,000 troops will be surrounded by Hongshui, what can be done? ”
"Moreover, if you retreat from Yangxia to Xu, you must pass through Gucheng. Now Cheng Kuang still has 10,000 people from the Mo family, if our army moves, they will attack the city first to intercept it, what will happen? ”
Han Chen hurriedly said: "You can send people to send troops to strengthen the city." ”
Qi Chen said: "From Shangqiu to Yangxia more than 200 miles, from Yangxia to Gucheng there are also 100 miles, 100,000 troops are pulled into a line, stretching on a 300-mile-long front, are the Koreans afraid that the Mo family is not easy to intersperse and cut off?" ”
"The only way to do this is to break the wrist of the strong man, give up the Yangxia division, and the main force quickly retreat. There are only more than 10,000 Mojia troops between Chengkuang, Daicheng and Yongqiu, and they can gather the main force to break through and retreat to Yongqiu. ”
"You can order Duan Duan to go north to Cheng Kuang and storm Cheng Kuang's enemy, so that Cheng Kuang's Mo family division cannot intercept our main forces."
In this way, it is equivalent to selling the 30,000 Korean troops in Yangxia.
These 30,000 people attacked Cheng Kuang in Beishan, and the Mojia division in Cheng Kuang was about to engage him, and the main force of the coalition army took advantage of the opportunity of Cheng Kuang's battle to quickly pass through the narrow passage between Daicheng and Cheng Kuang, which was the most dangerous, and retreated to Yongqiu.
The people of Qi were not trying to trap Korea, but this attack on Si was simply conceived with the main force of the Mo family near Laiwu.
I only thought about how to attack, and I didn't think about how to defend at all.
The purpose of the original division and reorganization of troops was also to contain each other's worries, so that the forces in all directions could work for the same purpose.
Once the situation moves from offense to defense, it's very different.
If Yangxia's 30,000 Korean troops were allowed to return to Gucheng, then the battle line would be too long, and the 30,000 Korean troops might escape, but the main force of the coalition might be blocked halfway.
If it is said that the retreat is separated, the Korean army retreats through Gucheng; The main force retreated along the original road...... Then in the context of the Mo family's surprise attack and partial division gathering in Cheng Kuang, the initiative of the battle will be in the hands of the Mo family.
The Mo family wanted to fight the main force of the coalition army, so they gave up fortifying the city to intercept the main force; The Mo family wanted to attack the right flank of the Korean army, so they gave up Cheng Kuang to intercept the Korean army.
Once the initiative of the battle is held by the enemy, if you are passive, it is actually extremely disadvantageous.
If the war cannot mobilize others, but can only be mobilized by others, it is easy to fall into a critical situation.
The Qi people's consideration was correct, and the best way now was for the Korean army to go north to attack Cheng Kuang, forcing the Mojia division to engage the Han army, so as to buy time for the main force of the coalition army to withdraw from the north of Cheng Kuang to Yongqiu.
It is impossible for the South Korean side to agree to this proposal, and in this way, the main force of the coalition forces will be withdrawn, but the main force of the South Korean army will be completely buried in Chengkuang.
If the main force of South Korea is buried in Chengkuang, after the Qi army retreats, it can also return to Linzi and take advantage of the opportunity of the main force of the Mo family to recapture Jiaodong in Sishang and form a confrontation.
But what about South Korea?
Is it certain that South Korea will let Qi give up Linzi and let the main force withdrawn by Qi from Shangqiu be stationed in the Yongqiu and Daliang areas to prevent the Mo family from taking the opportunity to attack Han Wei?
It is absolutely impossible, there is no need to think about it, once the main force of the Qi army withdraws to Yongqiu, it will immediately abandon Yongqiu and return to Linzi, recapture Jiaodong, and rely on Pingyin, Jiaodong and other places to confront the Mojia.
Qi will not ignore its capital for the sake of Korea.
Even if it is an oath now, it is impossible for South Korea to believe that the oath is to break the alliance in the future.
Therefore, South Korea must ensure that its main field force can be withdrawn, so that Qi State will not let South Korea be destroyed for its own small profits.
Withdrawing means that if Qi wants to seek a longer future, it must consider South Korea's attitude.
If you can't retreat, the Qi State is likely to break the jar and let Han Wei fall to the Mo family, and even take advantage of the Mo family's attack on Han Wei to recapture Jiaodong, although sooner or later it will die, but after all, it will die later.
Qi will not be ashamed of giving up South Korea's 30,000 troops, because from beginning to end, the definition of this war by the Marquis of Qi and his ministers is not to resist Mexico and save Qi, but that Korea itself needs to defend its homeland. If the Qi country dies, Han will not exist.
Therefore, Qi Guo can generously say that the overall situation is important.
However, the words of the strong man who broke his wrist and abandoned the car to protect the handsome completely angered the Koreans.
The premise of abandoning the car to protect the commander is that two people play against each other, and the current situation is that Qi Guo will give up the South Korean commander as his own army.
At this time, the atmosphere was already tense, and one by one the courtiers were about to follow the example of the second meeting of the soldiers when they asked the sword venue, the Son of Heaven and the ministers boiled Sun Zhongzi and said: "Why not compromise? ”
"If Han dies, Qi will not exist; If Qi dies, Han is also in danger. ”
"Although the Mo family is good at field warfare, although the suitable for the Mo family knows the soldiers, if the Chinese army and the right wing are combined, there will be nearly 100,000. The suitability may not be able to break through. ”
"It's like a dumpling on Si, if it has too much filling, it's easy to break the skin."
"Why don't you let the Yangxia Han army go north, and the Chinese army go south, it will be in Hongshui."
Han Hou's favored minister sneered: "Zhou has hundreds of thousands of sword soldiers, how can the Zhou people know about the battle array?" But he only knows some deceitful plots. ”
"In that year, the Zhou people did not send troops, but only sent their ministers to follow. In the battle of Pingyin, 30,000 enemies were killed, and the Zhou people were in vain. However, after killing the enemy, the Zhou people had a trick of deceit, so that Zhujingguan asked the Marquis of Qi to redeem the corpse, but in fact, they secretly helped the Tian family, knowing that the Marquis of Qi had no money and no power, and he had ears for the art of disturbing people's hearts; But there is no way to defeat the enemy. ”
This is the old case of the Three Jin Dynasty and Qi thirty years ago, in which Zhou Tianzi's courtiers played a not very glorious role, which led to a lot of consequences.
These words were already slapping Zhou Tianzi's face, but Zhou Tianzi couldn't speak, because he was now a few thousand soldiers and horses, and he had to rely on the princes.
The Zhou State has not fought for many years, and there are still some capable people who engage in conspiracy and deception, after all, there are too many nobles with family backgrounds, but when it comes to fighting, it is really not good.
Han Hou's favored ministers sarcastically mocked Zhou Tianzi's close ministers, as the so-called dog beating depends on the owner, and he had to coax Zhou Tianzi before, but now when it comes to this, Zhou Tianzi is really a fart.
Once Korea is dead, the door of Luoyang is wide open, and there is Luyang in the south through Yichuan to enter Luoyang; There is the direction of Xinzheng in the east, and you can also enter Luo in the west.
So at this point, there is no need to consider the face of the Son of Heaven.
Joining forces in one place, isn't that stupid what?
The main force marched slowly, and then slowly retreated after the Hongshui Division, was it afraid that the Mo family would not be convenient enough to chase?
The Son of Heaven was humiliated, and Sun Zhongzi was also angry, but at this time, it was inconvenient for him to reason with righteousness and courtesy, but sneered: "Although I don't know soldiers, I know that the princes are afraid of ink like tigers, and I was so frightened that I didn't know how to reason." ”
The Han people were about to get angry, and Sun Zhongzi hurriedly asked: "I don't know soldiers, but I know people's hearts." ”
"Zhu Gong tried to imagine that the main force of the Ta Zhishi was nearby, not in Laiwu. Since he is in Sishang, he has allowed us to wait for a long time to drive straight in, even breaking Xu, Yangxia and other important cities, what did he do? ”
"If he wants to eat all the Chinese army and the right wing, he can wait a little longer, and wait until the right wing penetrates deep into the front line of Kuxian, and then choose to encircle, isn't it easier?"
"If he can eat it all in one bite, why would he send suspicious soldiers to disturb Yangxia Han Division?"
"Although I don't know the soldiers, I know from the hearts of the people that the enemy is unwilling or unwilling to eat the Chinese army and the right wing at one time, so he deployed suspicious soldiers near Yangxia. Prompted the Chinese army to break away from the right flank and rush to Shangqiu. ”
"Now that you are helpless, frightened, and don't know why to fight, then you might as well come the other way around. What we want to do, we will do, or we don't know. ”
"He doesn't want to eat the Chinese army and the right wing at once, so we let the Chinese army and the right wing meet in Hongshui and slowly retreat."
