Qin Emperor Ziying

Chapter 52
In the tent of the Chinese army, the generals of the Qin army sat down in order of priority.

Wang Jian, who sat at the top, spoke first: "Recently, Li Mu's cavalry has frequently harassed our army. Although the casualties were not very serious, it did a great damage to our army's morale, and the subordinates moved slowly. Do you have a strategy to deal with it?"

After Wang Jian finished speaking, there was a moment of silence in the entire military tent.Even Sima Changyi, commander of the Qin cavalry, didn't have any good strategies.

Zhao Guo's cavalry is unrivaled in the world, and Li Mu is one of the most famous generals in the world. Even if the total number of Qin's cavalry exceeds that of Zhao, it is useless in front of Li Mu's cavalry, and they cannot even catch up.

After a little silence, a young general said cautiously: "General, if we don't, we will set up camp on the spot, and we will not come out to confront Zhao Jun. Zhao Guo is now extremely weak. In the long run, Zhao Guo will not be able to persevere, and will definitely find our army to fight to the death!"

After hearing this, Wang Jian shook his head slightly and said: "If this idea was put forward a few years ago, it would be a good policy, and our country has also implemented it in the same way. However, after many years of wars, Zhao State is now in a state of exhaustion.

Da Qin has been preparing for this war for more than ten years, and the king is determined to draw Zhao Guo in one battle.Moreover, our army is far superior to Zhao's army in terms of military strength and military supplies. At this time, we can no longer continue to confront each other. "

The plan was rejected by Wang Jian, and the big tent became quiet again.

Wang Jian looked at the generals in the tent and said, "Could it be that none of my Great Qin generals can match Li Mu'er!"

As soon as Wang Jian finished speaking, Sima Chang, the cavalry commander of the Qin Army among the generals, clasped his fists and said, "The general has a plan, but I don't know if it will work."

"tell me the story."

"My Qin army has fought against Li Mu several times. This man's use of troops is often unexpected, attacking the weak points of the enemy. During the Battle of Yi'an, he took advantage of the march of the large army to sneak attack on our army's empty camp.

The final general thought that it would be better to show the enemy weakness and create opportunities for Li Mu to make breakthroughs. "

When Sima Chang said this, the generals immediately started talking about it, but they couldn't understand what Sima Chang meant.

After Wang Jian heard this, he thought for a while and said, "You mean to expose Li Mu's weaknesses on purpose and let Li Mu attack."

"Yes, we can give Li Mu a reason to attack. For example, one battle will determine the world." Sima Chang continued: "The army is out, and the food, grass and supplies are very expensive. As we all know, Zhao's national strength can no longer hold on. Long-term.

If the temptation is so great that a battle can turn the tide of the battle, then even if Li Mu has doubts, he will not hesitate to take risks to come to have a try.After all, Li Mu is extremely conceited about his cavalry, in his opinion, even if our army misses, it will be difficult to keep him.

The foothills of the Taihang Mountains are densely covered with valleys.Our army can choose a closed valley in the next few days to set up camp, pretending that the army is attacking Fangfang City, leaving only a few thousand subordinates in the camp, and when Li Mu attacks, the army will turn back and block the exit, encircle and annihilate them. "

As soon as Sima Chang finished speaking, a young general stepped forward. Wang Jian saw that it was the later general Xin Sheng.This person can be said to be Wang Jian's right-hand man and is deeply favored by Wang Jian.

"General Sima's intention is very clever. However, there are two things that Xin Sheng doesn't quite understand. Please tell me, General, how to ensure timely return of our army when Li Mu invades; What I have noticed is that if we exit the valley in time, how will our army pursue it? How can we make Li Mu not bear to give up this attack regardless of the risk."

After hearing Xin Sheng's question, Sima often said: "The cavalry under Li Mu's command must be used to raid the valley camp, and the number of cavalry is less than [-]. Therefore, the [-] cavalry of my Qin army can be close to the house city. After dispelling Li Mu's doubts, Leaving aside the pawns, they turned around and returned quickly.

As long as the remaining army can stick to the camp for half a day, they can rush back at the speed of our army's cavalry, and they will be able to do all the work in a two-on-one situation with nowhere to escape.As for how to get Li Mu to come to attack and how to leave after finding out that our army has returned..."

As soon as the conversation ended, Sima Chang's words were immediately interrupted by Wang Jian. "The general commanded five thousand infantry to stay in the camp. Presumably there must be a good man like this commander in the camp, so Li Mu must come.

As long as the commander-in-chief dies, the north can be safe, and Li Mu can return to his division to reinforce Handan.Presumably, Li Mu would never let go of this opportunity to resolve the war in the northern border.

Even if Li Mu knows that our army is rushing back to help, as long as the general's camp is more shaky, Li Mu will never retreat. As long as he can kill the general, it is worthwhile to fight all his [-] cavalry. "

"General, you must not take risks yourself!"

At this time, all the generals in the account spoke one after another.

"It doesn't matter, this general has experienced more dangerous situations than this several times in his life on the battlefield, and none of them have turned the danger into a bargain. Li Mu can't save the old man's life. What's more, besides the temptation of others, it may be difficult for Li Mu to personally go into danger. That's the decision, just follow General Sima's plan!"

"promise!"

A few days later, the Qin Army's army attacked the house city.In the rear camp, only Wang Jian, the commander-in-chief of this army, led [-] soldiers to stay behind.

The autumn wind blew across the hills, and some dead grass and branches wandered in the world with the wind and waves.Li Mu is now approaching his forties, and it can be said that he has spent most of his life on the battlefield.But the more the battle was fought, the weaker Zhao Guo became.

Although Li Mu tried his best to save it, his personal power was limited after all. Zhao Guo is now like a ship full of holes in the wind and waves. Li Mu can block one place, but he can't save the whole ship.

From the northern border to Handan these years, Li Mu has basically been playing the role of the firefighting captain.But Zhao Guo's fire is indeed getting bigger and bigger.Especially the severe drought last year added fuel to the fire for Zhao Guo.Now Li Mu himself doesn't know how long he can last.

"Report, the spies in front have detected that more than [-] main forces of the Qin army are approaching the house city."

"You know, let's go!" Li Mu replied after hearing the spy report.Qin Jun's actions had no intention of guarding against Zhao Jun at all, so after some investigation, Zhao Jun obtained Qin Jun's "secret" North Road Qin Jun Commander Wang Jian was cold, so he never acted with the main force, and only led [-] soldiers Stay in camp
"General, the last general believes that the Qin army's move must be deceitful. During the Battle of Yi'an, our army took advantage of the Qin army's main force to attack Feixia and attacked the barracks. The lessons learned from the past are not far away. It is impossible for the Qin army to be unprepared.

What's more, Wang Jian stayed at the camp in person, so it's better to be careful. " said the lieutenant beside Li Mu.

"That's right, Wang Jian has been through battles for a long time, and he has learned from the past, so he shouldn't put himself in such a dangerous situation, and I also suspect that there is fraud in it.

However, the two-front battle is really unbearable with the current background of our Zhao country. The letter from Handan two days ago is very unfavorable for the south-front war.The Qin army has attacked the Great Wall several times, and my Zhao army soldiers can only hug the attacking Qin army with flesh and blood, and jump off the city wall together, only to safely keep the Great Wall defense line.

Your Majesty urgently ordered our army to end the war in the northern border and reinforce Handan as soon as possible. Li Mu sighed and continued: "This is Zhao's last chance. If Wang Jian can be eliminated in one fell swoop in this battle, our army will immediately return to help. Zhao will still be saved in this battle!" "

"After this time, how long can we last?" the lieutenant whispered.

Li Mu let out a long sigh: "As General Zhao, I have received great kindness from the late king, so I can only do my best every step of the way!"
