Chapter 1239

War is a conflict between two living forces. If one side absolutely endures concessions, it will not turn into a war.

Qin Gong Yingfei's mind flashed scenes from the past, and he knew in his heart that once a war broke out, it would be impossible to avoid it.

This point will not be changed just because of who is there.

He knew in his heart that war was a serious means to achieve its own ends.

The battlefield is full of endless variables, even if Han Xin, the master of military affairs, comes in person, it is impossible to fully understand it.

This is the diversity and complexity of war.

The greater the motivation and the higher the goal of war, the greater the relationship between war and the survival of the entire country, the more tense the situation before the war, and the closer the war approaches its abstract form.

All of this is for the purpose of defeating the opponent. Because of this, the more consistent the political purpose and the war goal are, the more the war is purely military when the two are identical, and the political purpose is covered up.

Conversely, the weaker the motives for war, the less tense the situation is, the farther the direction established by politics will be from the natural tendency of the elements of war, the farther war will be from its natural tendency, and the greater will be the difference between the political aim and the objective of abstract war. The bigger the war, the more war seems to be subordinated to politics.

This time sending troops to destroy Zhao was decided by Qin Gong Yingfei out of his own interests and the changes in the political situation of the Central Plains.

Qin Gong Yingfei has read the theory of war very well, and he agrees with a sentence in the theory of war, that is, all wars can be regarded as political actions.

War is the reproduction of politics by another means.

……

"The minister waited to see the king..."

Just as Duke Qin Yingfei's thoughts flickered and all the princes in the world were in an uproar, Qin Guo Jia, general Zhao Yun and others came to the study.

"My dear friends, you are welcome."

"promise."

Military advisors Guo Jia, Zhao Yun and others took their seats one after another. They were slightly puzzled by Qin Gong Yingfei's summoning, but they could guess a thing or two.

Wu Gongsun Ce died in battle, and the news of the victory and defeat in the Xiangyang battlefield had already spread like wildfire, and spread throughout the world in just a few days.

In addition to the unclear specific data, the results of the Xiangyang battlefield are no longer a secret.

They believed that Qin Gong Yingfei summoned them, and nine times out of ten it was for this purpose.

……

Watching the military advisor Guo Jia and others sit down, Qin Gong Yingfei's eyes flashed a look of solemnity, looking at the people present, he was silent for a moment, and said.

"My dear friends must have heard the news that the Xiangyang battlefield has indeed come to an end, and two-thirds of the 15 troops were killed."

"The [-] Zhao army led by Hou Cheng was wiped out, Wu Gongsun Ce died in battle, and Xiangyang City fell into our hands."

……

"boom!"

The news of the battle in Xiangyang has already been flying all over the sky. They all got the news that the Zhao army was defeated and Wu Gongsun Ce died in battle.

However, they did not expect that the Qin army suffered such a huge loss, two-thirds, a total of one hundred thousand Qin troops fought bloody battles. This is a major defeat that Qin has never experienced since the founding of the country.

For a moment, thoughts flickered in everyone's minds, and their thoughts were different.

"Your Majesty, the Xiangyang battlefield has come to an end, but this will definitely anger Zhao Wang Lu Bu completely. Zhao Wang Lu Bu has 20 Zhao troops in his hand. Once he returns, Jingzhou will be overwhelmed."

Thoughts flickered in his mind, military strategist Guo Jia raised his head to look at Duke Qin Yingfei, paused every word, and said.

"The changes in the Xiangyang battlefield are forcing our army to fight Zhao Wang Lu Bu. If Zhao Wang Lu Bu is not left under Luoyang City, there will be accidents in Jingzhou and Bashu."

The military adviser Guo Jia knew in his heart that at this moment in Qin, except for Luoyang, Xiangyang and Bingzhou, the rest of the country had no soldiers to defend.

Once Zhao Wang Lu Bu goes south to Jingzhou, Bashu will be exposed under the eyes of Zhao Jun.This is a fatal weakness for Qin.

……

Military strategist Guo Jia deserves to be an unparalleled advisor in the world. From Qin Gong Yingfei's words, it is clear that the end of the Xiangyang battlefield will have an impact on the Luoyang battlefield.

"call……"

With a thought in his mind, Duke Qin Yingfei looked at the military adviser Guo Jia and said, "The military adviser means to start a war in Luoyang, completely defeat King Zhao Lu Bu, and then annex Jingzhou?"

"Ah."

Nodding his head, the military advisor Guo Jia said, "Your Majesty, the death of Wu Gong and Sun Ce means that the Wu State will be unstable, and the entire situation in the south will be attracted by Wu State, which will reduce the pressure on Pang Tong."

"At this time, the only thing that hinders our country from annexing Jingzhou and completely annexing Zhao Kingdom is Zhao Wang Lu Bu!"

……

From the beginning to the end, Qin Gong Yingfei and military advisor Guo Jia did not consider the battle in Bingzhou, because they had enough confidence in Taiwei Xu Shu and General Meng Peng.

What's more, there are still [-] troops in the Baitu camp, plus the [-] troops led by Xu Shu and Tai Shici to the north, one-third of the entire Qin army is in Bingzhou.

The coalition forces of Han and Wei were only 15, and the Xianbei army that went south on the big screen was only [-].

Especially in the battle of Bingzhou, victory is not required, only Taiwei Xu Shu persists until the end of the war. In this way, Duke Qin Yingfei is naturally relieved.

With an elite Qin army of 17, defending Bingzhou is not a big problem. Qin Gong Yingfei believes that Taiwei Xu Shu and Meng Peng will never surprise him like Wei Liang and others.

He knows his cheap brother too well, he is a first-class talent whether it is governing the country or using soldiers.

It can be said that during the period from the end of the Han Dynasty to the chaos of the Three Kingdoms, a rare all-rounder in civil and military affairs.

……

"call……"

Letting out a deep breath, Qin Gong Yingfei's eyes fell on the people in the study, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

He knew in his heart that the death of Wu Gong and Sun Ce would definitely lead to a shocking change in the political situation in the south, and he knew even more that a more difficult opponent would emerge in the south.

With him in the state of Wu, there will be absolutely no chaos.

It's just that, even though he knew it well, he couldn't say it at this time. After all, having outstanding insight is a sign of talent, but if you don't know the foresight, you will be suspected.

Thoughts flickered in his mind, Duke Qin Yingfei looked at the generals present and said in a deep voice.

"Now Yique Pass and Taigu Pass are in the hands of our army. Wei Ran, you will lead an army of [-] to rush to Zhiyuan Pass immediately to completely block Zhao Wang Lu Bu's way to go south to Jingzhou."

"promise."

Watching Wei Ran leave, the military adviser Guo Jia's eyes flashed, and he said, looking at Qin Gong Ying Fei's words.

"Your Majesty, is this planning to force King Zhao Lv Bu to retreat from the Kingdom of Wei?"

"Ah."

Slightly nodding his head, Duke Qin Yingfei had a look of helplessness on his face, because he knew in his heart that even if he surrounded Zhao Wang Lu Bu, he would not be able to take him down in one fell swoop.

"The purpose of this battle is not to destroy Zhao Wang Lu Bu, but to attack Zhao State. As long as our army occupies Hanoi County, He|Nanyin and Jingzhou will be enough."

……

 It's so embarrassing, Chapter 3 has been delayed until now, and I fell asleep on my computer last night...
