Chapter 85 Rectifying Military Discipline
Lian Po, the veteran general of the Warring States Period, left, with a little unwillingness in his eyes, Changping has paid too much effort, if he can hold on for a while longer, he will definitely be able to defeat the Qin State, but it is a pity that the new king can't believe enough in this former minister who holds military power, it's just that, the first king, Lian Po has tried his best, I just hope that Zhao Guo can survive, and Lian Po is enough for this life.
The first battle of Changping, whether it is fate or mission, after all, it is impossible to get rid of, from the moment the king's order is issued, it is destined to be unavoidable, simply fight, if it is not successful, it will become benevolent, Zhao Kuo's face is gloomy, and he walks up the stone steps step by step with a long sword on his waist, standing on a high place and rising infinitely heroic in his heart, everyone below kneels in unison and shouts, "* army!" ”
Zhao Kuo's face was gloomy, the hilt of the sword was slowly pulled out, the Burning Sun Sword was radiant, and everyone had to bow their heads and remain silent, and they couldn't figure out what the new commander meant for a while, "The general should set an example and restrain his subordinates, and now it is decided that those who violate the military regulations will be killed regardless of their identity!" ”
Zhao Kuo's voice fell, and Mu Chen stepped forward on the side and said loudly and loudly: "Hearing the drum does not advance, smelling the gold does not stop, the flag cannot be raised, the flag is not subdued, this is called rebellion, and the offender will be beheaded; The name should not be called, the time is not reached, the time limit is not violated, and the law of the division is changed, which is called a slow army, and the offender will be beheaded; Spread the fight at night, slack and do not report, and even more plan to violate the slow, the voice is unknown, this is called slackness, and the offender is beheaded; complaining, angry with its commanders, not listening to constraints, and even more difficult to control, this is called building an army, and the offender is beheaded; Laughing loudly, defying the forbidden covenant, and rushing through the military gate, this is called a light army, and the offender is beheaded; The weapons used, bows and crossbows, arrows without feathers, swords and halberds are unfavorable, and the banner is withered, which is called bullying the army, and the offender is beheaded; Rumors and sophistry, fabricating ghosts and gods, pretending to be dreams, wanton heresies, and bewitching soldiers, this is called a prostitute army, and the offender is beheaded; A good tongue and sharp teeth, acting in vain, and assigning sergeants to make them discordant, this is called slandering the army, and the offender will be beheaded; Wherever they went, they abused their people, and if they persecuted a woman, it was called an adulterer, and the offender was beheaded; Stealing people's property, taking it for their own benefit, taking people's heads, thinking of their own merits, this is called stealing the army, and the offender will be beheaded; The army and civilians gather to discuss matters, enter the tent privately, and listen to the military aircraft, which is called visiting the army, and the offender is beheaded; or when they hear what they are planning and what they are saying, and they leak it out so that the enemy knows about it, this is called betraying the army, and the offender is beheaded; When calling, the tongue should not be stammered, the eyebrows are bowed, and the face is difficult, this is called a ruthless army, and the offender is beheaded; Out of the army, mixing the front and back, noisy speech, not obeying the forbidden training, this is called a chaotic army, and the offender is beheaded; To avoid conquest, pinching injuries and faking death, so as to escape, this is called fraud, and the offender is beheaded; The lord is in charge of money and food, and when he gives rewards, he is a private relative, so that the soldiers have a grudge, which is called a bad army, and the offender is beheaded; If you don't try it, you don't know how to explore the thief, you don't say anything, if you say more, you will say less, and if you say less, you will say more, which is called a mistake in the army, and the offender will be beheaded. ”
Seventeen military regulations were read out one after another, this military regulations were left by Han Xin, a general in later generations, Zhao Kuo had seen it in the present world, and now it came in handy, and the generals below couldn't help but be secretly frightened when they heard it, thinking of how many people in the army want to lose their heads, I don't want Zhao Kuo's methods to be so ruthless, since ancient times, there are words and methods that do not blame the public, and then see what you do, it is difficult to kill it, see who is still fighting for you, I don't dare to say it in my heart, Zhao Kuo is the * army has the power of life and death.
Mu Chen paused, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Zhao Kuo nodded, and Mu Chen said loudly: "Lack of strict restraint is the crime of the master, and we will be together!" ”
"This, this move is too harsh, and I will not accept it."
Zhao Kuo's eyes were like sharp swords, "As a general, you can't restrain the soldiers, what is the use, remove this person's official position and send him back to Handan to wait for disposal!" ”
The elite behind him quickly stepped forward, the man shook his arms, he was also a good galloping on the battlefield on weekdays, he didn't want his shoulders to be twisted by the two of them, and he couldn't shake it off, so he had no choice but to scold loudly, "Zhao Kuo, exchange General Lian with despicable means, see what you have to fight with the Qin army, everyone will be buried with you, Zhao Kuo, you are the sinner of King Zhao, Lao Tzu is not convinced." ”
The voice gradually faded away, Zhao Kuo looked at everyone, "But there are still people who are not convinced, if you want to leave, you can leave now, Ben Shuai will definitely not embarrass you, once you stay, you must abide by the rules, and those who violate it will not be tolerated." ”
The generals below, you look at me, I look at you, there is a look of hesitation in his expression, as a general, he should lead the soldiers to kill the enemy bravely, there is no fault in it, but the rules set by Zhao Kuo are too strict, one person gritted his teeth, "* Army, the last general thinks that he can be shallow and embarrassed." ”
"Prepare horses, money, and food to send the general back to Handan!"
The soldier listened to the order, the man flew on his horse and walked away, and some people left one after another, and finally there were only seven people left, with a resolute expression, Zhao Kuo nodded, "You can stay and deal with the Qin army with this commander, I am grateful, and immediately raise the account!" ”
The atmosphere in the big tent couldn't help but be solemn, and Zhao Kuo said: "Who can say how Changping is armed?" ”
One person got up, "Back to the * army, our army is stationed in Changping, which is the west and south of Shangdang County and even our capital Handan, the west and south of the traffic and strategic barrier, Qin Qian first occupied the east of the Wei River with Anyi as the center, and captured the Nanyang of Han with Yewang as the center, in the competition with Zhao, whether it is to attack Shangdang for the time being, or finally point to Handan, there are two mountain holes in the west and south to walk, that is, take the west road of the first line of Wuling and Laomaling, or take the south road of the first line of Yangjiban and Tianjingguan, whether it is the west road or the south road, Changping is a strategic shortcut, and there is almost no alternative to it. ”
Zhao Kuo nodded, he had already checked clearly along the way, it was understandable for Lian Po to garrison the Qin army here, occupying the geographical advantage, entering the Qin army's vital points, retreating from natural dangers to defend, the only dilemma in front of him was the lack of food and grass plus the Qin army had warships to occupy the water conservancy, the army was encircled, and how to find fighters to break the blockade was very important.
"General Xu, please continue."
Xu Wei continued: "Changping itself is a strategic place in the entire Shangdang region with multiple military and geographical advantages. Changping topography is surrounded by mountains on the east, west and north sides, the shape is like a kei shape, inclined from the northwest to the southeast, the water runs parallel to the terrain throughout the whole territory, this water changes with the amount of rainfall, the mountains are endless, the rivers are vertical and horizontal, the peak is high and the slope is steep, the rocks are exposed, the five major tributaries Xu River, the Dongcang River, the small Dongcang River, the Dongda River, the Yonglu River are networked all over the whole territory, such a geographical environment is for the war, then the mountains are dangerous to rely on, especially in the west and north, there are still Gaoping Pass, Changping Pass, Guguan and other groups of fortresses can be held; The hills are not a big obstacle to the troops, but they can act in concealment; The river valley and Pingchuan are extremely suitable for the dispatch of large troops and the planning and transfer of baggage, and there is no risk of food and drink for the army. ”
Xu Wei said slowly, Zhao Kuo nodded again and again, this person knows the land of Changping well, it can be seen that the delicate mind can be of great use, and he secretly wrote down the name in his heart, just waiting for him to observe for a period of time before making improvements, Xu Wei returned to his original position after speaking.
"How is the army distributed?"
General Lian once brought 300,000 armor, plus no less than 400,000 soldiers and horses that originally belonged to Shangdang County, tens of thousands of casualties in successive battles, and now there are still more than 300,000, and it is also a science to place hundreds of thousands of troops in the mountains and mountains.
One person got up, "Yu * army, the army is divided into four parts, one is stationed along Hanwang Mountain to prevent the Qin army from crossing the river, one is stationed in Daliang Mountain, one is responsible for building fortifications, and one is stationed in the valley to stand by!" ”
Zhao Kuo nodded, "Do you know the deployment of the Qin army?" ”
The man said: "The details cannot be known, according to the judgment, Wang Yi divided his troops to the north and south of the Shunqin River to deploy defenses. The first Qinhe defense line: with Duanshi City as the center, extending along the south and north of the Qinhe River, generally showing a northwest-southeast trend, northwest to the confluence of the Longqu River and the Qinhe River in Qinshui County, and reaching the Tuncheng at the junction of Qinshui and Yangcheng in the southeast. The second line is the Laomaling defense line, which was originally the first line of defense built by General Lian to resist the Qin army, and it bore the brunt of the attack and was the first to be broken through by Wang Ji, so it was used as the second line of defense by the Qin army. The third line is the Hyunshui defense line, after the Kongcangling defense line was successful, Wang Di drove straight to attack the heavy land of the trapped wolf, and the tentacles then penetrated into the Hunshui line, this water was shared by Qin and Zhao, Zhao was based on Hyunshui East, Qin was based on Hyunshui West, each other was a barrier, and the other bank confronted. ”
