Great Zhou Tianzi

The next day, Yan Ping suppressed his anger and found Meng Ao, and asked him about the battle report respectfully.

Meng Ao first pretended to be surprised, and said, "Why hasn't the general written the battle report and sent it to Xianyang? According to the usual practice, the news should be sent back to the capital as soon as the battle is over!"

Old Yanping blushed, and said: "This is the first time that I will be the commander-in-chief of the three armies. This... how to write the battle report. I have no experience at all. Please enlighten me, General Meng!"

Meng Ao said in his heart, I don't think you can write, but you can't write the battle report of defeat. If the Qin army won a big victory last night, it is estimated that the fast horses you sent to deliver the letter would have traveled half the way.

"It's actually very simple, just tell the truth!" Meng Ao spread his hands.

"Tell the truth? Isn't that just asking for trouble?" Yanping's voice couldn't help raising an octave, he thought Meng Ao was playing tricks on him deliberately!

Meng Ao explained: "General Yan, you don't think that the 20 soldiers of the Qin army are all loyal to you, do you? How many spies were inserted by Ji Jie and how many people were inserted by Lu Xiangguo? How long does it take to report to the line, do you know? The result of fabricating lies can only be shooting yourself in the foot, what do you think?"

Yanping was in a cold sweat when he heard that, what he said was so reasonable.

"Thank you, General Meng, for the reminder. I know what to do, so I'm going to write the battle report now!" Yanping turned and ran away.

Meng Ao looked at his back with disdainful eyes, and said to himself: "Another guy who only knows how to talk on paper, far worse than me!"

Yanping wrote what happened last night as a battle report without embellishment, and at the same time indicated that a large-scale counterattack will be launched in the near future. Lu Buwei.

Then, he spent a day formulating a plan to attack Zhou's army, and immediately put it into action, hoping to win back the city before Lu Buwei's reprimand letter arrived.

One hundred thousand Zhou troops were stationed in a small city on the border between Zhou and Qin. The walls were not high and the moat was not wide. The distance between the two armies was thirty miles. From the rear, an hour and a half before dawn, attacks were launched from two different directions.An hour before the attack, the third army of 5 troops set out from the front and took advantage of the chaos to take down the small town. If they were lucky, they could wipe out the Zhou army.

This is a good plan. According to common sense, Zhou Jun, who had just won a victory, would never think of these things.

However, the commander of the Zhou army is Ji Jie. His way of thinking is very different from that of ordinary people. He is staring at the map hanging on the wall in a daze.

"What are you thinking about?" Sima Xueran walked up to him and asked.

Ji Jie put his arms around her willow waist and said with a smile, "I'm empathizing!"

"Think differently?"

"Yes." Ji Jie pointed to a location on the map and said, "I was thinking, if I were the general of the Qin army, what would I choose to do after losing a battle?"

"I can't shrink back!"

"Wrong!" Ji Jie said his judgment: "Yanping urgently needs a victory to prove his ability to his master Lu Buwei, especially after losing for a while, he is afraid that Lu Buwei will blame him or deprive him of the title of general, so... "

"So an attack will be launched immediately, isn't it?" Sima Xueran said the following words.

Ji Jie nodded and said, "If you want to ensure victory, sneak attack is undoubtedly the best choice! Hehe, you go and ask the messengers to call Ji Jian and Zhao Ling, I have a task for them!"

……

At nightfall, [-] elite Qin troops set out on the road quietly. Everything that could make noise, including the bell, was removed from the horse's body, and its four hooves were wrapped in sackcloth. No one was allowed to speak during the march. Otherwise, he will be killed on the spot.

When assigning tasks, Meng Ao asked for a fight, but was rejected by Yanping.

The reason is very simple, because Yanping himself will be the commander of the frontal attack, and the deputy commander, Meng Ao, must lead the remaining soldiers to guard the camp, and there must be no mistakes.

Of course Yanping would not give him the opportunity to make meritorious deeds, and Meng Ao was also eager to make meritorious deeds to turn himself around.

Therefore, Meng Ao could only watch as the arrogant Yanping set off as the second echelon with [-] strong soldiers.When Yanping disappeared from his sight, he suddenly had an idea: Ji Jie, you must not let me down, if you lose to someone like Yanping, what qualifications do you have to be my opponent.

The first echelon arrived at the scheduled location very quickly, and went smoothly along the way without being discovered, so they charged as soon as the time came.

The time was almost up, and the 5 people in Yanping were also in place. He looked at the small town not far away, and confidently said to the generals around him: "Ji Jie really didn't expect that I would sneak attack tonight, tell me later Soldiers, the two wings will launch an attack in a quarter of an hour, and then everyone will hold up their torches and obey my orders!"

"Yes, General!"

A quarter of an hour later, thousands of torches lit up on the east and west sides of the small town, and then there was a deafening shout of killing. The two cavalry teams charged at the same time, and the ground shook violently.

4 people successfully rushed to the city, and a team of cavalry who was in charge of attacking the east gate even rushed through the city gate!

Seeing that the city gate was wide open, Yanping shouted excitedly: "Come on!"

The 5 people rushed towards the small town like a flood that has completely broken the dike. Yanping ignored a problem, that is, no matter how poor the defense of the small town is, if there were really 10 people stationed inside, it would not be so easy to be washed away. City gate?

Immediately afterwards, several other city gates were also knocked open, and [-] vanguard troops swarmed into the city. Qin people valued military exploits, and everyone wanted to rush in and kill a few heads in exchange for corresponding rewards.

The first person to rush in was dumbfounded. The street was empty, and there was no one in the house. Where are people?

Is it a trick?

I guess so, hurry up and withdraw!

withdraw?How could it be so easy, the unidentified soldiers behind kept rushing into the gate of the king's city, and they couldn't stop it!When it's too much, you don't have to lift your feet to walk at all, and the flow of people will take you into the city.

Ji Jie, who was five miles away, fired a signal flare, and gorgeous fireworks exploded in the air.

Then, in a cave outside the small city, several Zhou Jun lit the fuze, then ran out of the cave and ran towards the rear defense.

At least 4% of the [-] people poured into the small town, and when they were in a state of confusion, explosions sounded under their feet one after another.

"Boom...boom...boom...boom..."

The ground shook and the mountains shook, limbs and arms flew around, blood rained all over the sky, houses began to collapse, and the city walls were not spared. A small city turned into a pile of ruins in the blink of an eye.

It's just that the ruins swallowed the lives of [-] Qin soldiers!

Yanping, who was rushing here, was dumbfounded. Fortunately, the 5 people are still some distance away from the small town, otherwise these people would have to follow along.

"It's been tricked again!" Yanping suddenly became cold, and shouted hysterically: "Withdraw, withdraw for me!"

It's all here, but it's not so easy to leave, Ji Jie rang the second flare.
