Chapter 275: The Rising Star

Wu Anjun Bai Qi was once again promoted to gather generals and deploy the next stage of combat missions.

According to the 16-character strategy of Bai Qi: encircle the point to send reinforcements, clear the wilderness, fight the snake seven inches, and cover the encirclement and suppression! After the encirclement and reinforcements, it is the strong wall and clear the field, that is, the capture of the royal tomb camp.

"Once the camp is strong, the Zhao army will be trapped in the old pass, and the pattern of besieging the Zhao army will be formed again. Therefore, tomorrow's war, no matter what, will be decided by a war. Bai Qi said loudly.

"Obey the general's orders!" The generals agreed with a bang.

"Tomorrow's siege, with the Mengfu army as the main force, the Huan Gong Department and the Ying Leopard Department as the general strategy, responsible for blocking the Zhaozhuang army at the foot of the old pass, Wang Yu's army is still sticking to the camp, and it is not allowed to fight unless ordered!"

"No!"

Ouyang Shuo sat aside, his expression flashing with a hint of doubt. Since it is a real siege of the city, why is the brave Wang Di's army still holding out. He had just observed Wang Di's expression, and he was not the slightest dissatisfied, which couldn't help but make him feel strange. Perhaps, Bai Qi has other unknown arrangements.

The annihilation of the Wei army not only destroyed the joint forces of the various countries in Shandong, but also captured a large amount of grain and grass materials.

The Qin State supported the Yewang Fortress for three years, and the military rations in the treasury were almost exhausted, so all of them were transported to the Yewang Fortress. A fire in Zhaozhuang burned the grain and grass that the Qin State had worked hard to hoard for several years. Therefore, although the grain route was restored, the grain and grass that Ying Hou Fan Ju could collect in China was very limited.

Because of the frequent requisition of grain, the old Qin people in the Guannai were already complaining. In order to support the front-line army, even the rations of the people's homes were asked to contribute, how not to make the people complain.

Because of this, Zhao Kuo concluded that the two armies continued to hold each other, and the Zhao army was stronger than the Qin army.

It's a pity that the Wei State was defeated in an embarrassing way, and the countless grain and grass materials brought from the country were discarded at will on both sides of the camp or the road, which really cheapened the Qin State.

King Qin Zhao was already organizing the people to quickly transport this batch of military rations to Guangwolf City.

The plain where the Qin and Wei armies fought was located in Hanoi County, which was very close to Changping, saving the hardship of transporting grain in the middle, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone. Within a few days, the military rations will be transported to the Light Wolf City. Therefore, the shortage of grain and grass in the Qin army has been greatly alleviated, and it is far from the shortage of grain and grass as predicted by Zhao Jun.

************

The next morning, the sun was rising, and it was another good day.

Early in the morning, Zhao Jun began to get busy, moving all the old chariots and available materials in the old fortress to prepare for the formation of the Checheng circle.

Just when Zhao Jun was busy, the Qin army on the opposite side had already poured out.

The black tide that covers the sky and the sun, in the sound of war drums, steps on the neat beat, lines up in a neat and uniform military formation, and walks out of the barracks in turn, waving flags and beckoning, covering the sky and the sun.

Bai Qi climbed the watchtower as usual, condescendingly, and commanded the army.

The first to go out was the 120,000-foot cavalry army led by Meng Fu. The army on this road has been besieging the camp of Wang Ling for several days, and it has long been familiar with the road. The difference is that Sima in the army gave the order to fight to the death last night.

In the Qin army, once the battle is fought to the death, anyone who retreats cowardly will be killed. In serious cases, family members may also be affected. Therefore, whenever the battle is fought to the death, the soldiers are all brave and resolute, and they fight against the water.

In the billowing smoke and dust, the army of Huan and the army of Yingbao took advantage of the smoke and dust to march behind the army of Mengqiu. In the first battle of the Qin-Wei Plain, the Huan and Ying Leopard coalition forces suffered very little losses, and there were still 90,000 of the 100,000 troops that could withstand a battle.

The army marched again to the fortress of the king's tomb. The defenders of the camp looked at the army coming from afar, and they were not so nervous, and the two sides fought for several days, and the Zhao army concluded that the enemy on the opposite side was just posturing.

The news of the defeat of the Wei army was only known to the generals of the Zhao army of more than 10,000 people. In order not to affect the morale of the army, General Zhao Kuo ordered that it was strictly forbidden to spread it downward, and those who violated the order would be beheaded.

Therefore, among the defenders, except for a few generals, most of the soldiers were kept in the dark.

They didn't know that today's Qin army was completely different from yesterday. Although the generals knew about it, they also ordered the soldiers to cheer up, but unfortunately it had little effect.

Because he had already made a military order in front of Wu Anjun, Meng Fu threw in the main force as soon as he came up and launched a fierce attack. The battle for several days was not without results. At the very least, the trench in front of the camp had been largely filled.

The vast army, stepping through the trenches, erecting ladders, launched an endless onslaught on the camp that was already its own. The soldiers were not afraid of death and went forward one after another.

Such a fierce attack caught Zhao Jun off guard. Only then did they realize that the Qin army on the opposite side was going to move seriously this time. By the time he woke up, he had already suffered a lot of losses.

Fortunately, the Zhao army was not a mediocre person like the Wei army, although it suffered a big loss at the beginning, it quickly adjusted, and used the advantage of the city wall to launch an extremely murderous fight against the Qin army that attacked.

All kinds of city-defying equipment such as fierce fire oil tanks were operated to the extreme by Zhao soldiers, causing great casualties to the Qin army at once.

Meng Wei sat in the Chinese army, his eyes did not fluctuate at all, and he did not pay attention to the huge casualties in front of him. Coldly waving the flag, sending a team of soldiers to the front line, if the goal is not achieved, he will not give up.

The continuous onslaught put a lot of pressure on the defenders of the camp, and they didn't even have time to catch their breath. Under the repeated impacts, there have been gaps in some parts of the camp, although they have been blocked in time, but they are already in danger, and if the attack continues like this, it will only be a matter of time before the city is broken.

Meng Fu was so keen, seeing that there was a hole in the opponent's defensive rhythm, he immediately pressed the reserve troops on all fronts. For a time, the camp of the royal tomb was in danger. The defenders of the camp had to send a distress signal to the army of Zhao Zhuang.

Although Zhao Zhuang was in charge of arranging the Checheng Great Array, he had actually been secretly paying attention to the siege battle not far away. Seeing that the Qin army, as he expected, had turned from a feint attack to a real attack, he immediately organized a large army and prepared to rush to reinforcements.

Just when the Zhaozhuang army came in a hurry, the Huan Gong Yingbao coalition army, which had been hiding behind the Zhaozhuang army, suddenly rushed out and blocked the retreat of the Zhaozhuang army with an invincible momentum.

Ninety thousand iron horsemen, like an insurmountable iron wall, blocked between the army of Zhaozhuang and the camp of Wang Ling.

The two generals, Huan Di and Yingbao, according to Bai Qi's orders, stopped the enemy in this battle, and killed the enemy second. The army relied on mobility and marched in front of the Zhaozhuang army, making it impossible for the Zhaozhuang army to advance a bit.

Zhao Kuo stood at the head of the old pass city, saw that Zhao Zhuang's army was stopped, and knew that the Qin army was determined to take down the Wangling camp and pull out the nail.

Although he had prepared the Checheng Array, Zhao Kuo did not want the Wang Ling camp to fall early. No matter how bad it is, the 50,000 troops in the camp must be brought out safely.

Just when Zhao Kuo was about to mobilize the internal army of Guguan and go out of the pass to reinforce the army of Zhao Zhuang, the scout suddenly came to report: "General, a large number of Qin troops have appeared in the north of Guguan, carrying a large number of siege equipment, as if they want to attack Guguan." ā€

"What?" Zhao Kuo couldn't believe it, when did the Qin army detour behind the Great Wall of Stone again, he didn't even know that the scout team was incompetent, it was really damned. "How many of them are there?"

"No less than 100,000!"

Zhao Kuo's heart trembled, the 100,000 army, if he sent the defenders of the old pass to reinforce the army of Zhao Zhuang first, then the old pass would be in danger.

"That's not right!" Zhao Kuo frowned and said to himself: "How can it be so coincidental? ā€

Thinking about it, Zhao Kuo couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. The Qin army in the north must have set off a few days ago, so that it could appear at the right time when the main force of the Qin army besieged the Wangling camp, so as to contain the army of Guguan and make it impossible for it to go out of the pass to rescue the defenders of the camp. If Zhao Kuo ignores it, then the enemy's containment will immediately turn into a real attack. As a result, there is always one of the fortresses of the old pass and the royal tomb to be lost.

It is clear which of the two is more important.

This is a clear and sparkling conspiracy, Zhao Kuo can only choose one of the two bitterly, or rather, he can only choose to stick to his old pass and give up the camp of Wang Ling. As for cooperating with the Huguan defenders, it is also not feasible to flank the Qin army in the north before and after.

Huguan is too far away from the old pass, and once you come and go, the enemy has long run away without a trace.

This is the inadequacy of the Zhao army's defense line, the longitudinal defense line is stretched too long, and it cannot echo each other smoothly, leaving an opportunity for the enemy to take advantage of.

At this moment, Zhao Kuo had a deep understanding of the subtlety of Bai Qi's use of soldiers. Obviously, this battle shows that Bai Qi has completely seen through the weaknesses in the Zhao army's defense line and made targeted arrangements.

In comparison, Zhao Kuo does seem a little immature.

Zhao Kuo's dilemma was not only that he had to sacrifice the 50,000 troops in the Wangling camp, but that if he really ignored it and watched the garrison being taken by the Qin army, it would be a huge blow to the morale of the whole army.

Save, there is a weak heart; If you don't save it, the army's spirit will be lost.

Zhao Kuo shook his head bitterly, and said bitterly: "Order the defenders to move to the north to defend the Qin army, and at the same time give an order to the defenders of the camp to hold on, and after the siege of the Qin army is solved, the army will immediately go out to reinforce the pass." ā€

"No!" The herald's heart trembled, his face did not dare to show a trace of abnormality, and he respectfully retreated.

Everyone knows that Zhao Kuo's so-called reinforcements out of the customs are just a piece of paper. By the time the main army really repelled the Qin army in the north, the Wangling camp would have fallen a long time ago, so how could it be reinforced.

Although everyone knows it, after all, logically, Zhao Kuo did not give up the camp of Wang Ling, it was really because of the containment of the Qin army that he had to do it.

In this way, it will not have a great impact on the morale of the whole army.

I have to say that although Zhao Kuo's move is not above board, it is an effective method. As a general, you have to be hard-hearted, and when you should be ruthless, you have to be ruthless.

Bai Qi gave Zhao Kuo a good lesson.

After this battle of Changping, Zhao Kuo is growing at a speed visible to the naked eye and becoming more and more mature. If he can really get out of the Changping War Zone alive, he will definitely be a rising star. (To be continued.) )
