Reincarnation Guest of All Heavens and Ten Thousand Realms

Chapter 323
Time gradually passed, and half a month passed.

It was only seen that Ren Taixu's army surrounded Hanzhong tightly, but did not attack the city.

For a while, both inside and outside the city, the morale of the soldiers was somewhat low, and they really couldn't guess what Ren Taixu was thinking.

I don't know why the siege does not attack?

You must know that Hanzhong is the hinterland of Beidi, and it has always been used as the granary of Beidi. It is obviously impossible to encircle but not capture, even relying on the advantages of logistics, Ren Taixu's army can only be dragged to death.

That's why Daqin chose this place as the place where the Northern Territory and Ren Taixu fought to the death.

Daqin just wanted to take advantage of Hanzhong's geographical advantages to firmly contain Ren Taixu, and even drag Ren Taixu's army to death.

There is no doubt that even the Great Qin generals in the city at this time were baffled by Ren Taixu's actions.

On the contrary, outside the city at this time, in Ren Taixu's large tent of the Chinese army, Ren Taixu was sitting at the top, surrounded by his confidantes and important civil and military officials.

At this time, Ren Taixu had a smile on his face, and said to Li Huayuan who was the first on his right: "Huayuan, are you ready?"

At this time, Li Huayuan was wearing a Taoist robe, with a long beard and a goose feather fan in his hand. He looked like a fairy in the military camp.

Li Huayuan also smiled slightly, and bowed to Ren Taixu: "My lord, the interior of the city is already ready, just waiting for the lord's order!"

Ren Taixu nodded in satisfaction when he heard the words, and then said to Su Yuansheng, a white-haired veteran on his left hand: "General Su, prepare your arrows at dusk today!"

Su Yuansheng said, "No!"

The internal response that Ren Taixu mentioned here naturally cannot achieve the feat in Hanzhou before, he directly cooperated with the internal response and opened the gate of the city.

After all, Hanzhong was heavily guarded, and Ren Taixu's tentacles couldn't reach Hanzhong.

In the northwest, he can directly make the deputy general who guards the city serve as internal support, while in Hanzhong, he has very few internal support in the army, and more of them are merchants in the city, helping the disciples of the Cangsheng Sect to deliver news to them.

But Ren Taixu doesn't need them to cooperate internally and externally, he only needs them to play their old skills.

……

At dusk, the defenders on the city were a little slack at this time, although there were hundreds of thousands of troops outside the city watching.But as the previous half month passed, the army outside the city did not attack the city, in order to put pressure on them.

After they gradually got used to the large army outside the city, the pressure in their hearts also gradually decreased.

Even if the guards in the city repeatedly ordered to be vigilant, no matter how determined a person is, it is impossible to concentrate and be vigilant all the time.

Moreover, people are social animals, as long as one person is slack, whether it is imbalance or other psychological factors, this emotion will be carried to the whole army.

So even though it was only half a month, the vigilance and morale in the city was far worse than when Ren Taixu's army had just arrived.

In fact, the current military strategists have some misunderstandings about the siege and not attacking. They only think that it is an act when they have an absolute advantage, and the city lacks water, food and grass, thus forcing others to surrender.

But in fact, it is not the case. As long as a general who is proficient in the art of war understands the psychology of soldiers, he will find that as long as there is enough time, besieging but not attacking is like a real psychological warfare.

"Courage is also needed in the battle of husband and wife. With one effort, it will be weakened again, and exhausted three times. The other is exhausted and the other is filled, so we restrain it."

Sometimes, the two armies compete not only in strength, but also in psychology.

There is a saying in the art of war: This is what it means to attack the heart first.

Relatively speaking, the casualties of the siege are definitely far greater than that of the defender, so the defender often has a certain advantage.

But the side that attacked the city was not without advantages. They decided when to attack the city, so they took the initiative, so they grasped the changes in the battle situation.

When the two armies confront each other, when discussing the soldiers outside and inside the city, the morale of the soldiers who definitely have the initiative is even higher, because they can decide when to attack at any time, while the defenders can only be forced to defend.

Although defending the city has some advantages, it is boring for them to defend the city, and their morale will drop significantly.

To put it simply, using boxing practice as an example, one person punches and one person makes a target. The one who hits is definitely more exciting.

And even if the person who is the target is wearing thick armor, he may suffer a lot less pain than the attacker, but he will be more boring, and psychologically his aura is weaker than the opponent.

Of course, the above discussion is based on a long period of time. If the time is short, the war continues, and the morale changes are not obvious, the soldiers who are attacking the city will be at a disadvantage.

When Wang Jian attacked Chu with an army of 60, he decided to adopt a strategy of steady and gradual advancement, which was a stalemate with Xiang Yan for more than a year.

Wang Jian hangs up his exemption card every day, and it is strictly forbidden to go out to fight.

Xiang Yan tried to challenge several times, and selected hundreds of soldiers with high-pitched voices to yell and insult in front of Qin Lei every day, but the soldiers of Chu scolded until their throats smoked and their tongues swelled.

Wang Jian just turned a deaf ear to it, sat firmly in the central army's big tent and closed his eyes to rest his mind, and let the whole army eat and sleep well, so as to recharge their energy and lay a solid foundation for the fierce battle in the future.

A year later, Da Qin's morale was high, while Da Chu's morale was low. When the general offensive was launched, it would be determined by a single battle!
Wang Jian conquered Chu. In a foreign country, the right time, place and people did not have an advantage, but he was proficient in the art of war, understood the psychology of soldiers, and firmly controlled the changes in occupation in his own hands, thus defeating the enemy.

Of course, Ren Taixu at this time did not intend to be like Wang Jian, and had a stalemate with the defenders in Hanzhong for a year.

After all, the pattern of the world is changing too fast, who knows what will happen one year later?
Moreover, he is not Wang Jian, and he does not have Da Qin's support behind him. If there is a stalemate for a year, he really may not be able to pass Hanzhong.

Following Ren Taixu's orders.

At this time, the somewhat lax defenders on the city suddenly noticed that the rhythm of the enemy troops outside the city seemed to have changed from the previous January!
Gradually, vigilance rose in my heart, and as expected, at dusk, the sky gradually dimmed!
Shouts of "enemy attack!" erupted in the city

All the city guards got nervous and looked outside the city, and suddenly found a row of enemy troops covered under shields, drawing bows and shooting arrows towards the city!

However, their arrows are somewhat "abnormal". Each arrow is bound with a white cloth strip, which seems to be like a letter.

At the same time, the arrows were not shot towards the city, but were drawn high and turned into a parabola, shooting towards the distant city.

Although the formation is not small, such an inaccurate arrow does not hurt anyone.

Gradually, several soldiers on the city looked at the feathered arrows stuck beside them and the white cloth strips on the arrows.

I couldn't help being a little curious, so I picked it up and took a look.

Suddenly there was an exclamation!
Seemingly being noticed by the surrounding soldiers, this man dared not make a sound, and quickly threw the cloth strip on the ground.

However, this action aroused the curiosity of more and more defenders in the city, and they all picked up the cloth strips on the ground to take a look.

At the same time, the real gathering place of the feather arrows is still in the city. More and more people in the city saw these feather arrows and the cloth strips on the arrows. After watching them, they all showed expressions of surprise and hid them one after another. .

At this time, Hanzhong had Ren Taixu's internal response to help spread the news, and soon a news broke out in the city!
Qi Wang Xue Shoulan intends to rebel!
Although he clearly knew that this was news from the enemy army outside the city, but the content on the white cloth strip was really real. Many anecdotes were recorded on it, all of which were collected by Ren Taixu over the years. Suddenly it felt too real!
Moreover, it reminds me that King Qi is the youngest son of the late emperor, and he was deeply favored by the late emperor. Although he has stayed in Qi land in a down-to-earth way these years, he has many virtuous names and is deeply trusted by the people.

It is suspected of being favored by itself, and there are black materials listed by Ren Taixu, which makes people feel that it is true!
At this time, Qi Wang Xue Shoulan also got the news at this time, and looked at the various news on the white note.

Immediately, his face turned red, and he said angrily, "It's really a bunch of nonsense!"

While speaking, his face turned ugly, and his hands were trembling unceasingly, making people think it was a look of panic attack.

It seems that he has been greatly framed.

Of course, with his city mansion, this is more for the people around to see. After all, Hanzhong is not covered by him alone at this time. Although he has a noble status, he is only the person in charge in name.

In fact, there are still many cronies of the new emperor who hold actual power. After all, the vassal king controls hundreds of thousands of troops, and the emperor will never rest assured.

There are the emperor's confidantes around, so he has been "framed" at this time, so he must show it, so that the people around him can't see what's wrong.

But this action was not completely fake, he was really angry, after all, he knew better than anyone else that the news on the white cloth was not a false accusation.

Many of them are small actions he has made in the past, but many of these things are known to his confidantes.

But when Ren Taixu made it public at this time, he couldn't help suspecting that someone had betrayed him.

On the contrary, when the many generals around King Qi saw King Qi's performance at this time, they really believed it for a while.

They all comforted and said: "Why should the prince be angry? It's just a conspiracy by the rebels outside the city. Naturally, no one will believe it."

At this time, there were a few really smart people who saw the news on the white cloth and knew that the news on it might be true—King Qi really wanted to make trouble.

But in order to stabilize the internal situation, he can only comfort with everyone.

Seeing the appearance of the crowd, Xue Shoulan gradually calmed down his anger, and then laughed loudly: "The enemy army outside the city wants to divide us, but many generals are wise men, how could they be fooled?"

"However, that Ren Taixu is really a cunning person, he dared to frame this king, this king must behead the old man, to relieve the hatred in his heart!"

Everyone nodded when they heard the words.

As the news fermented, a smile gradually appeared on Ren Taixu's face.

At this time, he was playing chess with Li Huayuan, and after a while, he dropped a black piece in his hand, the dragon revived, and swallowed up Li Huayuan's chess pieces.

Li Huayuan arched his hands, and said in admiration: "My lord's chess skills are getting better and better!"

Ren Taixu just smiled slightly, without mentioning the situation on the chessboard, and then said: "When does Hua Yuan think it will be messed up?"

Li Huayuan smiled slightly, looked at the far south, and then said: "Maybe we have to wait until the new emperor receives the news."

Ren Taixu laughed out loud when he heard the words, and said, "You still see too little!"

"Could it be that you really think that my move is just the king's suspicion?"

"Even if the new emperor is really suspicious, what good is it to us to remove King Qi? King Qi is not a famous commander."

"Now it's not about the new emperor, it should be about when the King of Qi will make up his mind!"

Saying that, Ren Taixu laughed again, Li Huayuan looked thoughtful at this moment.

It was at the same time that Ren Taixu was talking with Li Huayuan, in the mansion of King Qi in Hanzhong at this time.

At this time, King Qi was also sitting alone in the room thinking.

He didn't dare to summon his confidantes, because the information that Ren Taixu spread before really made him suspect that the confidants around him were not worthy of trust.

At this moment, he had already lived up to the confidence he had during the day before.

Don't look at the fact that everyone said they believed him during the day, but he knew that it was just to calm people's hearts.

Among them, there must be doubts in people's hearts. Maybe the news has already spread towards the new emperor at this time.

If everything is false, he is naturally upright and not afraid of the shadow, but...

And following the news delivered by Ren Taixu, he suspected that Ren Taixu had some more important pieces of black material in his hands, and these pieces of black material were absolutely unforgivable.

Even if he is forgiven, he still has to worry about the new emperor's settlement!

So at this time he was already very hesitant, and there were only two paths before him, one was to catch him without a fight and let the new emperor do what he wanted.

Once this path is chosen, life and death are beyond control!
The other way is to really rebel as Ren Taixu said!

Anyway, in the city at this time, his soldiers and horses also occupy an important part. If it goes well, he may not be unable to complete the seizure of power and thus take control of Hanzhong.

Next, defeat Ren Taixu and unify the northern border...

Thinking of this, Xue Shoulan had another bias in his mind, and it had to be said that Ren Taixu was quite accurate in judging people.

Among the many princes in Great Qin, Xue Shoulan and Xue Zhennan had the greatest ambitions.

One is because of his special status, he is the most favored youngest son of the late emperor, and he can be regarded as the highest seniority among the royal family.

The other is that he is self-reliant on his high military achievements, his military achievements are at its peak, and his strength is strong enough.

Thinking of this, Xue Shoulan suddenly felt certain!
Soldiers are very fast!
Taking advantage of the fact that everyone has not reacted at this time, it is just in time to seize power and military power!

Thinking of this, Xue Shoulan immediately went out from the path and headed straight for his barracks.

Summon the army and seize the city!
To be honest, even Ren Taixu could not have imagined that Xue Shoulan had such courage and decided to take advantage of that night to do it!
