Battle for hegemony at the end of the Qin Dynasty in the military god system

Chapter 166

Although Jin Zi was very reluctant to go to the evil formation by the sea again, Sha Pojun ordered to take the guard battalion with him, and as the commander of the guard battalion, he had no choice but to go.Of course, even if he is not the commander of the guard battalion, he has to go if Sha Pojun orders.

The guard battalion is the guard of the Liangshan army commander, and there are not many hundred people.The initial members were a group of heroes with outstanding martial arts from Shijinzhai. Later, after experiencing the flames of war, there were only about 100 people left in the end.After the Juye siege battle, Sha Pojun returned to Liangshan, and Li Shiqi added 100 people to the guard battalion. All of these [-] people had extraordinary martial arts skills. According to Sha Pojun, their force was no less than [-].Everyone in Liangshan is proud to be the guard of Sha Po Army. Although their rank in the guard battalion is not too high, they are only elite soldiers, but even the battalion commanders of the Liangshan Army's battalions maintain courtesy when they see them.However, there was a member of the guard battalion of the Liangshan Army who was very dissatisfied with his position. He always wanted to leave the guard camp. This man was the commander of the guard camp, Jin Zi.As for why, everyone knows.

Jin Jin summoned the guard battalion, conveyed Sha Pojun's meaning to them with an unhappy face, turned around and left regardless of whether the guard battalion had any doubts.Everyone in the guard battalion was very excited when they heard the news, and they were finally about to set off.They are all seven-foot men, and no one has the heart to make contributions.

……

But it is said that Han Xin, who was guarding the border of Qidi, finally confronted Zhao Ben's 15 army not long ago.The vanguards of the two sides fought a field battle, but they didn't take advantage of it, and the two sides were evenly matched.

Han Xin retreated to Puyang, implemented the strategy of fortifying the walls and clearing the country, and dragged Zhao Ben's 15 troops to Weidi.At this time, Li Zuoche came to Han Xin's tent under the order of Sha Pojun.Han Xin heard that the lord sent a military adviser, and hurried out of the city to meet him.

Li Zuoche came to the city with his guards and met Han Xin. The first impression he had on Li Zuoche was that Han Xin was not a general with outstanding force. As for his leader, Li Zuoche did not blindly believe other descriptions. Rather, be prepared to make a final decision after contact.

"Mr. Li has come from a long way, and I have lost my way to meet you. Please forgive me!" Han Xin said, clasping his hands.

Li Zuoche just replied indifferently: "I'm impatient, it's more important to get down to business, let's go back to the camp to discuss the strategy of withdrawing troops."

Han Xin was very happy to find that Li Zuoche was so cheerful and without any pedantic etiquette. It seemed that the other party was a practical person.So he took Li Zuoche back to the camp with a smile.

After the two sat down, Li Zuoche couldn't help but ask: "General Han, how is the battle going?"

"The vanguard of our army and the vanguard of the Qin army fought once, and neither of them took advantage of it. Zhao Ben is indeed the commander of the Qin army who has seen the flames of war. He is strict in running the army, and there is no opportunity for him to take advantage of it." Han Xin described in detail. After crossing the border of Qi and Wei, the two sides fought a small battle. The combat effectiveness of the Qin army was still higher than that of the Liangshan army, but the opponent was a tired army, so both sides suffered losses.At present, the Qin army is camping at the border of Qi and Wei, waiting for the follow-up supply of food and grass.

After carefully listening to Han Xin's description of the truth about the Qin army, Li Zuoche frowned and asked, "You said they came in a hurry, and there was no supply of food and grass?"

Han Xin nodded, and then added: "Yes, I'm sure their food and grass can last for about three days at most, so I also sent cavalry to attack the food road, but the other party took precautions, and the effect was minimal."

Li Zuoche fell into deep thought, if this is the case, the enemy this time will be very difficult!Then, he casually asked, "How did you sneak attack?"

"As far as we know, there are three grain roads behind the Qin army. I sent cavalry to go around their camp and go back and forth between the three grain roads. When I found the enemy's trace, I mobilized the cavalry to charge. But the other party seemed to know that we were coming. , have already made preparations.”

"Haha! You definitely can't do this. When you sent cavalry to search for their traces, they were already exposed. The other party will definitely call in support from the camp, so when you gather to attack, they are already ready. So, The effect is minimal!" After listening to Han Xin's narration, Li Zuoche laughed and explained: "General Han, you are also a person who knows how to fight, how could you make such a mistake."

"So that's the case. I was still wondering how the other party would know the direction of our army's actions." Han Xin slapped his head, suddenly realized, and then blamed himself: "It's all my fault that I have been relying on the intelligence of the Zongheng faction since I led the army. The situation is well known. I have never thought about whether the enemy also knows the situation of our army, and the enemy will ambush if he does not pay attention to it. This is the way."

Li Zuoche nodded, and said with a smile: "Sometimes people are like this. They are used to fighting in battles where intelligence is not directly proportional. Mistakes in strategic decision-making. Fortunately, General Han woke up in time, and there is still time to make corrections."

Although the mistake was corrected, this matter was even more difficult. They couldn't sneak attack on the opponent's grain path, and when the opponent recovered, the offensive would definitely not be weak.Han Xin fell into deep thought, and asked in a deep voice for a moment: "Then, in the opinion of the military adviser, we will not attack the other party's grain road?"

Li Zuoche shook his head, and said with a smile: "The grain path must be destroyed, otherwise the opponent recovers its strength, and we must face a bitter battle."

"The plan will come out?"

Li Zuoche walked to the map, pointed at Wei on the map, and said, "General Han, come and see!"

Han Xin stepped forward quickly, looked at the place Li Zuoche was pointing at and asked, "Wei Di, what's so special about it?"

"Do you know whose territory this land is now?" Li Zuoche turned his head and stared at Han Xin and asked.

Han Xin thought for a while, and replied uncertainly: "I heard that Zhou Wen's army has already attacked Qin, and Wei must also belong to them! No, if it is Zhang Chu's territory, then why can Zhao Ben's army pass here unimpeded?" .”

Li Zuoche did not answer Han Xin's question immediately, but continued to ask, "Do you know where the rations for Zhao Ben's army came from?"

Han Xin thought about it carefully for a moment, then clapped his hands and replied: "Xianyang, when Zongheng sent his disciples to give us information about the grain road last time, he mentioned that I didn't care about it at the time. Is it normal to also come out from Xianyang? Now that the military adviser has reminded me, something is wrong. Some time ago, when we fought with Li Ji’s army, most of their rations were supplied by neighboring counties. Now Zhao Ben It’s a little unreasonable to look far away instead of close.”

"No! It makes sense, because the counties and counties on their marching route have changed hands, and Zhao Ben can't get food and grass from there." Li Zuoche gave an affirmative answer.

Han Xin still had some doubts about this answer, and Han Xin asked: "It shouldn't be a problem to take these counties with the strength of the Qin army! This way they can also get more supplies."

Li Zuoche shook his head again, and replied with a smile: "General Han, it seems that you haven't analyzed intelligence carefully enough recently! There are three reasons why Zhao Ben didn't attack the counties along the way. First, Zhao Ben himself and myself The army has the vengeance of killing his son, and he has only one purpose for this expedition, which is to destroy our army; second, what kind of army is Zhang Chujun? As long as everyone related to the Qin State is executed, and all the food, grass and property are swept away, what do you think Zhao Ben can get from attacking the city? Third, Zhao Ben’s army is unimpeded all the way. Why does he bother himself and delay time? Maybe it will attract Zhou Wenjun's attack, would you do such a thing as a revenge-minded coach?"

Han Xin was silent and frowned. It seemed like there was quite a lot of trouble now!
