Competing

Chapter 492 It Should Be Good News
Jingxingkou, Zhao Jun camp!

Zhao Guo's army is in formation, ready to face the coming Han army!

Li Zuoche watched Zhao Jun walk out of the camp, set up a formation on the flat ground outside Jingxingkou, and completely abandoned the camp that could have been used as a barrier, he couldn't help sighing softly!
The cart before the horse, but Zhao Wangxie persisted... Li Zuoche shook his head lightly, and when he was about to leave, he saw Zhao Wangxie and several generals coming out for inspection from a distance.Now that you happened to meet him, let's try again. Now should be the last chance to persuade King Zhao and guarantee Zhao Jun's victory.If you miss it, you will regret it!

"Your Majesty!" Li Zuoche stepped forward to salute respectfully.

"Guangwu Lord!" Seeing that it was Li Zuoche, Zhao Wangxie didn't change his expression, but just responded lightly.

Li Zuoche knew that some of his words today had caused King Zhao's dissatisfaction, but there were still some things that had to be said.

"Your Majesty, now Xiang Yu is not in Xingyang, Cheng Gao, Han Xin crossed the river to conquer Hedong, and successfully pacified Wei. Now that he is sending troops to the east of Jingxingkou, it is obvious that he wants to take advantage of the victory to take our Zhao State. The morale of the Han army is now high. Han Xin It is precisely for this reason that we want a quick battle. Now we and the Han army will immediately start a decisive battle, just following Han Xin's wish, which is not a good choice.

On the contrary, the Han army came from afar.Passing through Jingxing, the road is difficult, which is not conducive to the passage of large groups of vehicles and horses. The supply of food and grass must not be very good!Therefore, as long as we can't hold on, the Han army will return without success and be able to kill our spirit. "

Chen Yu did not follow Zhao Wangxie, but there was another person. Xia said: "Mr. Guangwu, don't worry too much. Our army has 11 people, and the Han army is only [-]. Under such circumstances, we can't hold on to it." If it comes out, won’t it lose the prestige of my great Zhao? If it spreads out, won’t it make the people of the world laugh at Zhao? Laugh at the king?”

Zhao Wangxie had been displeased for a long time, and his face was very gloomy.There were rumors in the country of Zhao that he was only supported by a descendant of the Zhao royal family, and he had no ability. Before, he relied on Zhang Er, but now he relies on Li Zuoche and Chen Yu.For these words, Zhao Wangxie was already upset, but he just kept holding back.

This battle happened to be a good opportunity for him to make meritorious deeds and use it to convince the public.However, this Li Zuoche just doesn't know current affairs, and he has to persuade him again and again for the edict he has already decided.In Zhao Wangxie's view, this was no longer persuasion, but a form of persecution in disguise. It seemed that if they didn't use their so-called famous generals, if they didn't follow their advice, they would definitely be defeated.

Invisibly, these all touched the rebellious scale in Zhao Wangxie's heart, so he felt disgusted early on, no matter what Li Zuoche said, he would not listen.Zhao Wangxie has now firmly established a belief, that is, to prove himself to the world, and then deal with those people who have made great achievements and threatened the throne of King Zhao one by one.

I'm afraid that the king and ministers of the state of Zhao have such thoughts, but they don't know that arrogant people often suffer big losses, especially in military operations.Arrogant soldiers are bound to be defeated. I don't know how many examples of this have happened throughout the ages, but they don't know how to be sober at all.Li Zuoche felt very uncomfortable, but since he had already spoken, no matter how difficult it was, he had to continue!
Li Zuoche immediately explained: "It's okay to want a quick battle. The Han army must have been carrying grain behind for dozens of miles. I hope that the king can allocate [-] cavalry for the last general, and the last general will pass by the small road." Cutting off the rear and attacking back and forth with the king's troops will surely wipe out the entire Han army!"

Zhao Wangxie sneered, Li Zuoche still did not give up the military power, and this was what he was most afraid of.Also, I have already made arrangements for this battle.Now Li Zuoche still comes to you to persuade you, which shows that he doesn't take his edict seriously.Even if Li Zuoche's words are golden and jade, but he has already issued an edict, and there is no way to change it no matter what.

"Guangwu Lord, don't bother, there is no need. Han Xin is only 3 people, and we are several times him, but we dare not fight him head-on. If it is spread, the world will not think that the widow is timid. If similar situations happen to other princes in the future How should we deal with invading the Zhao country? Wouldn’t it make the people of the world laugh at us? They think our Zhao country is easy to bully. Well, Lord Guangwu wait and see how the widow will defeat the enemy!” After Zhao Wangxie finished speaking, he walked away up.When Xia Shuo passed by Li Zuoche, a sneer of disdain appeared on his face.

Li Zuoche stood on the spot in a daze, looking at the back of Zhao Wangxie who was going away, he didn't move for a long time, without saying a word.He clearly knew that for this battle, he could only be an absolute bystander.

I hope that God bless Zhao Guo and let Zhao Guo survive this calamity safely.Maybe all of this should be asked about Han Xin in Jingxing, and I don't know what the young marshal is thinking at the moment...

No one noticed that an ordinary Zhao soldier saw all this in his eyes, and then inadvertently found an excuse to send a message outside the camp...

In Jingxing, Guan Ying and Zhang Er could no longer bear the doubts and worries in their hearts, and wanted to ask Marshal Han what the situation was like.

"Marshal Han!"

"Well, what's the matter?" Seeing Guan Ying and Zhang Er, Han Xin asked softly.

Zhang Er hesitated and said: "Marshal Han, please forgive the general for talking too much, I don't know what the marshal has in mind, can you tell the general to wait a little, so that we can feel at ease!"

In contrast, Guan Ying has followed Han Xin for a long time, and has relatively strong confidence in Han Xin.As for Zhang Er, maybe Chang Shan's defeat made him a little bit unwilling, so he paid special attention to this battle against Zhao Guo, and of course very much hoped to win.Han Xin's prestige has long been heard, but this is the first time to fight with Han Xin, the actual feeling is a completely different matter.

Han Xin smiled slightly and said lightly: "Are you all worried about the victory or defeat of this battle?"

Seeing Han Xin's smile, Zhang Er and Guan Ying were relieved a little, and said with a smile: "Yes, Marshal Han, we are all nervous, that's why we came to see you, so that we can feel at ease! "

Han Xin could see the nervousness and worry of the two generals under him, and he knew that this was a normal situation, after all, he was also a little flustered.However, these determinations cannot be seen by the subordinates, otherwise they will become more worried and lose enough confidence.Not only that, but now they must strengthen their confidence in order to resist the enemy with one heart and one mind.

But what should I tell them now?You can't just swear by it, right?Han Xin said lightly: "As for how to fight this battle, there is only one word to do now!"

Both Zhang Er and Guan Ying raised their heads, their eyes flickered with curiosity, and they looked at Han Xin thoughtfully, obviously both were very interested in the word Marshal Han.

"Wait!" Han Xin spit out, giving them the answer they expected a lot.

"Wait?" Both Zhang Er and Guan Ying were a little confused, wondering what Marshal Han was planning, and what was so profound about this word?
Han Xin said leisurely: "In a marching battle, knowing yourself and the enemy can lead you to a hundred battles. May I ask, do we understand Zhao Jun's actions now? From General Zhang Er, we only know that there is a rift between Zhao Guojun and his ministers. This can be the general direction of our actions. It’s a reference from above. But how should the specific combat plan be carried out? In addition to our own arrangements, we must pay attention to the situation of the Zhao army, and only after we understand the enemy’s actions and plans can we prescribe the right medicine!”

Know yourself and your enemy?Prescribe the right medicine?Guan Ying murmured: "Marshal, our spies have been sent out a lot, but they are mainly just scouting the way, and they never brought back much useful information?"

Han Xin explained with a smile: "The spies sent out are only to ensure the safety of the march and not be attacked and intercepted by the Zhao army. As for wanting to find out what the Zhao army is doing, it is too late to act now!"

Zhang Er said thoughtfully: "Marshal Han is really smart, he is planning ahead. The marshal means to wait for the news from the Zhao State camp at Jingxingkou right now?"

Guan Ying is also a smart person, so he realized it in an instant, and said with a smile: "That's very good, then just wait!"

Han Xin's mood was not so relaxed. He was sent out early to be placed in the Zhao army, and the news should have been delivered soon.But it is not known whether it is good news or bad news. This is the most stressful thing!

Han Xin restrained the strong uneasiness in his heart, and waited quietly in the valley. He hoped that what he sent would be an exciting and funny one, so don't let people down!
The news was delivered in the evening, and Han Xin placed spies in the Changshan Daiguo army when the Battle of Hedong was going on.This is also an important reason why Han Xin was able to know that Zhang Er was in danger and sent Guan Ying to rescue him in time.Now that the state of Zhao was reestablished, these spies naturally gathered in the camp of the Zhao army.

The task Han Xin entrusted to them was to inquire about Zhao Jun's actions at any time and report them in time.This is also an important reason why Han Xin dared to take risks to attack first.In terms of knowing himself and the enemy, he has already taken action one step ahead.

After Zhao Wangxie's military order was issued, the spies consolidated the news and sent it out along the transmission channel that had been arranged before, and quickly delivered it to Jingxing, and delivered it to Marshal Han who had been waiting for a long time.

In Jingxing, when Han Xin received the news from the east of Dashan Mountain, he couldn't help being excited, but also a little uneasy.

Suppressing the violent emotional fluctuations in his heart, he opened the secret letter and read it word by word.Guan Ying and Zhang Er stood aside, looking at Marshal Han's solemn expression, he couldn't help being very nervous.However, seeing Marshal Han's frown gradually relaxed, their hearts, which were also hanging in the air, gradually relaxed.

It should be good news after all!
