"What? Let's fight the first battle of the Nanyang Army? Could it be that the lord really wanted to help the Qin army capture Daliang? ”

After listening to Han Teng's words, he took the initiative to ask for an order, asking that in the siege battle against Daliang tomorrow, after fighting the first battle, Han Teng's generals were also puzzled, and Huo Lingyang spoke first and asked Han Teng.

Han Teng said lightly: "What do you think? ”

Shui Xinyue said: "The lord is just borrowing the power of the Qin State, naturally he will not really help the Qin army, if we capture the Great Liang, wouldn't it be too convenient for the Qin army?" ”

Cao Wuxian also said: "Lord, please forgive me for being blunt, even if the Nanyang Army is dispatched, it may not be able to capture Daliang, don't forget, the back of the Dai Army is enough to compete with our Nanyang Army." ”

Han Teng nodded and said, "What you said makes sense, of course I won't help the Qin State capture Daliang." ”

Huo Lieyang said: "Then why does the lord take the initiative to ask for an order, and tomorrow he will attack the city and fight the first battle." ”

Han Teng said: "Last time, we avoided the Battle of Xingkou by killing prisoners and slaughtering the city, but as a result, the Qin army lost troops and dismantled the generals in the battle of attacking Xingkou. Although we have achieved our goal of consuming the Qin army, this incident has already been noticed by Qin Wangzheng, and he has begun to suspect that we intend to preserve our strength. ”

When everyone heard this, they were also surprised, Shui Xinyue said: "We have designed this plan very cleverly, but I didn't expect it to be seen through by Qin Wangzheng, it seems that we have underestimated Qin Wangzheng's wisdom." ”

Han Teng said: "The person who saw through our plan was not Qin Wangzheng, but Princess Rongyu. ”

Shui Xinyue was even more surprised, and said, "Princess Langyu, is that Ying Hehua who is said to be the reincarnation of Xuanniao?" How could she see through our designs? Could it be that she is the one we really underestimate? ”

Han Teng said: "It's not clear whether Ying Hehua is the reincarnation of Xuanniao, but she turned into a bird in Handan City and saved the people of a city, I saw it with my own eyes, this is not false, so we did ignore her a little." ”

Huo Lieyang said: "Even if she is really the reincarnation of Xuanniao, what is there to be afraid of, but she is just a little girl, don't forget, we have the power of Chiyou, what are we afraid of?" ”

Han Teng said: "The matter of Hehua will be talked about later, but Qin Wangzheng has already doubted us, and now we must borrow the power of Qin, so I took the initiative to ask for a battle for a while, and in this battle, let the Nanyang army suffer heavy casualties, and it is best to annihilate the whole army, so that Qin Wangzheng has no reason to suspect us." And now the group of soldiers we brought from Nanyang are almost to the limit of their lifespan, even if they don't die in this battle, it will be difficult to survive this year, and it is certainly worth using the lives of this group of people who are about to die to eliminate Qin Wangzheng's suspicion of us. ”

Shui Xinyue said: "Lord, we have less than 2,000 recruits now, and there are only more than 500 people who have really completed the body transformation, no matter what, this group of people can still be used for a while, if they all die here, then we will probably have no soldiers available in the next few years." I'm afraid it's not good for the lord to establish a foundation in the Qin State. ”

Han Teng laughed and said, "Isn't that better?" We can just withdraw from this battle and let the Qin army meet in front of Daliang City and break the bloodshed, lose the troops and dismantle the generals. ”

Cao Wuxian said: "Didn't the Qin army plan to irrigate the beams with water?" I'm afraid they won't storm the girders, so they may not have much to lose in their forces. ”

Han Teng shook his head and said, "Do you think that everything will be fine when the water irrigates the beams?" Gao Yuan probably had already expected that the Qin army would have this move, otherwise the last time he rescued the Wei State, he would not have defended Xingkou with all his might. And this time he dared to come to the rescue of Wei again, and entered Daliang, then the plan for the Qin army's water attack must have been planned, and the Qin army may be able to rely on the water potential to break through Daliang City, but this process will definitely not be easy, I am afraid that there will be a lot of hard nails, and we can stand by and ignore it completely. Even if the Qin army can finally conquer Daliang, the loss of Qin's national strength, manpower, and material resources will never be smaller than that of the capture of Zhao, and after occupying the land of Wei, it will take a while to stabilize, so I estimate that it will take at least three or five years for Qin to recover its national strength, and it is impossible to launch a large-scale conquest against the outside world. ”

"And after we have eliminated Qin Wangzheng's suspicion of us, we can also use this period of time to re-cultivate and establish a new Nanyang army, and in addition to the new Nanyang army, we also want to establish a conventional army, including a strong cavalry army, and now Wang Ben has found the secret of the strength of the cavalry army, that is, the new style of horse furniture, I think after this war, the Qin State will make a comprehensive change to the cavalry, just like Zhao Wuling King Hufu cavalry shooting. And we can take the opportunity to build up our own cavalry army in time. At the same time, we must also establish our power in the Qin State, gradually control the Qin State, and let the power of the Qin State be used by us. ”

After everyone listened, they understood Han Teng's intentions, Jingran still had such complex and far-reaching intentions, but they also had to admit that Han Teng's plan was indeed very thorough and feasible.

Huo Lieyang said: "Lord, we all understand that tomorrow's battle will be carried out according to the lord's plan. ”

Han Teng also nodded and said, "Okay, tomorrow I will see you take a good look." ”

―――――――― dividing line――――――――― dividing line―――――――― plateau with the help of two maids, just put on the armor, these two maids are when the plateau just arrived in Daliang, the king of Wei gave the plateau a total of twenty beauties, the plateau only left two people, serving their own life, in terms of life, there are women to take care of, always be more comfortable, and the other beauties are assigned to other generals, of course, how to deal with these beauties, It is up to each man to take care of himself.

Gao Yuan was still thinking about whether to attack today, if so, how to attack, which side should be the focus of the attack, and how to contain the Qin army in other directions.

At this moment, I saw Li Wei hurrying in and said, "Lord, the Qin army has launched an attack on Daliang." ”

Gao Yuan was stunned for a moment and said, "I'll go and take a look." With that, he followed Li Wei out of the mansion.

The direction of the Qin army's attack was the eastern city, and a small number of troops were also assigned to the western, southern, and northern cities to contain it, because standing on the city wall, you can clearly see the strength of the Qin army attacking each city and the siege equipment used.

Plateau climbed the city tower in the middle of the east city, raised his eyes like a distance, and saw that the Qin army's troops were about 30,000, lined up in three large phalanxes, and were slowly advancing in the direction of the Daliang city wall.

In each phalanx, there are also a large number of bed crossbows, trebuchets, siege ladders and other large equipment, and the most conspicuous thing is that there are twelve tower carts in each phalanx with a height of nearly six zhang, which even exceeds the city wall of the girder.

The tower car is also called the ladder car, it is said that it is a siege weapon invented by a generation of craftsman master Lu Ban, closed on three sides, and covered with raw cowhide, the crossbow machine, the stone has a certain resistance, the bottom is provided with three pairs of wooden wheels, can push forward, the car can hide fifty soldiers, there is a wooden ladder inside, the top is equipped with a flap, after approaching the city wall, the flap is opened, erected on the city wall, the soldier can kill directly on the city wall along the wooden ladder.

However, although this kind of tower car is a sharp weapon for siege, it is not only complicated to make, but also extremely expensive to cost, far more than bed crossbows, trebuchets and other equipment, the Qin army took out thirty-six at once, which also shows that this attack of the Qin army is by no means a joke.

But Gao Yuan knew in his heart that this was just a bluff of the Qin army, in fact, it was because during this period of time, he was made to take care of one or the other by his constant assaults, and he couldn't guard against it, so he came up with this trick to attack and defend, and use the attack to suppress himself.

Of course, this strategy of the Qin army is indeed very clever, because although he knows that the Qin army is a feint, he can't help but be on guard, in case the Qin army finds that his garrison is not strict, there is an opportunity to take advantage of it, and it is not impossible to make a fake come true. Therefore, we must not be careless. So Gao Yuan also immediately ordered the whole army to prepare for defense, and brought a large number of weapons to defend the city.

According to the arrangement of the plateau, the walls of each side were garrisoned by 5,000 main troops and 7,000 reserve troops, including 2,000 archers, 1,000 crossbow archers, and 60 crossbows and trebuchets in addition to a large number of bed crossbows.

The length of the unilateral wall of Daliang City is about more than 3,000 meters, and there are four people stationed in an average of one meter, and it is impossible for the Qin army to use all these 3,000 meters, so the garrison strength is basically enough. In addition, after these more than ten days of sorties, many soldiers of the reserve army have also received a certain amount of training and can play some roles.

However, Gao Yuan still ordered to transfer 1,000 soldiers from the Beiwei Army to garrison on the city wall, and at the same time prepared 3,000 main troops and 5,000 reserve troops under the city to prevent accidents. Of course, Gao Yuan also ordered that the Fan Yong Army and the Shengjie Army be ready to attack, and as soon as they found a gap in the Qin army, they would immediately go out of the city and attack the Qin army's position again.

The three phalanxes of the Qin army stopped at a distance of about four hundred paces from Daliang City, because this was the limit of the range of bed crossbows and trebuchets.

The phalanx of the three Qin armies, like three huge black squares, lay quietly in front of Daliang City. Although it was more than 400 steps away, I could still feel the heavy pressure.

If it was a month ago, the Wei soldiers defending the city might still be frightened by the formation of the Qin army, but after these ten days of assault, the Wei army's fear of the Qin army has been basically eliminated, so they ignore the Qin army, but are busy with their own work, some soldiers guard the battlements, some prepare weapons, into a cluster of arrows, crossbow guns, stones, bricks, grease barrels are transported to the city like flowing water, and at the same time set up dozens of cauldrons, pour clean water, light firewood, and boil.
