The system forced me to be emperor
Page 840
If Xiao Rui's soldiers want to continue westward, they must annihilate the opponent.
Therefore, winning Miaoshan City is not a victory. This is the city that Qin State gave up.As for the people who were abandoned in the city, Xiao Rui did not embarrass them. He just arrested and executed the main officials in the city. Even if they vowed to join Daxia, he would never show mercy.Without officials, the common people would not take the initiative to cause trouble, which would also ensure the stability of the rear.
Then the army continued to march, and took two more prefectures on the way. It didn't take much effort, because there were no troops to fortify.And the strategy after winning is the same, appease the Qin people, behead the officials, there are appeasement and deterrence, as long as the people are not stupid, they will basically be honest.
After passing these two prefectures, there are still more than a hundred miles away from the county seat of Shanxi County, and then the real battle begins.
At this time, the governor of Shanxi County, the veteran Liu Shuai led an army of 30, and had been waiting here for a long time.In the two nearby prefectures, there are 40 troops each, a total of [-] troops, facing Xia Guo!
Liu Shuai didn't know the situation of the other lines of defense, and he didn't care, because he knew that even if the other lines of defense were fighting terribly, it was not as important as his own, because he was facing the emperor of Xia Kingdom.If the emperor of the enemy country marches in person, the opponent's soldiers and horses must be brave and good at fighting. If he relies on the city to stop the opponent, it will be a tragic battle.
If you can stop the opponent and repel the opponent, it will surely boost the morale of the Qin State and cheer up the floating people's hearts.If you can kill Emperor Xia, then...
Liu Shuai didn't dare to dream about it.
But if you fail, it's really worse.
"Has the scout returned? Where is Xia Jun?" Liu Shuai asked anxiously.
Judging from the distance, after the opponent took down Tengcheng, it was time for troops to come to the city today. Why is it so late now? Could it be that the opponent's 40 army is in trouble?
Impossible, the journey from Tengcheng to Juncheng is smooth, it should be here.The delay in the future has made the soldiers of the subordinates still unable to let go of their concerns, and the longer the delay, the easier it is to breed uneasy emotions.
Soon the scouts came to report: "Report to the general, Xia Guo's soldiers and horses are fifty miles away, and the opponent's soldiers and horses are marching at a slower speed, as if the Emperor Xia is on a tour!"
According to the usual practice, the emperor marched in person, and the advance troops had already rushed to the front of the county. Unexpectedly, Xia Guo's soldiers and horses did not follow the routine.
Liu Shuai frowned immediately, and couldn't help cursing: "What the hell is Emperor Xia doing! He really thinks Qin is their home!"
"That's right, it made us wait for so long in the cold wind!" The lieutenants beside him also cursed.
"That's right! Isn't the Emperor Xia cold in such a cold day? Make it colder, it's better to freeze them to death! If you dare to offend our Qin country, they will freeze to death." A young lieutenant cursed.
Liu Shuai's expression changed. He looked at the lieutenant beside him. The soldiers were wearing thick clothes. If it was colder, they would have furs to keep them warm.But what about the soldiers under him?Their clothes are too thin.
If the weather is colder, will the soldiers of Xia State freeze to death first, or the soldiers of Qin State?
When Liu Shuai rushed here, Meng Tian told him that the soldiers of Xia State all wore cotton padded clothes.At that time, Liu Shuai didn't think so, but when Meng Tian gave Liu Shuai the padded clothes made of cotton, Liu Shuai was shocked.
At this moment, Liu Shuai knew the reason why the soldiers and horses of Xia State were moving slowly. They were waiting for the cold weather. Although it would restrict the actions of soldiers of the State of Xia and make it difficult to attack the city, but for the soldiers of the State of Qin It's even more of a disaster.
At any rate, the Xia soldiers were not cold, they could hold their swords and guns, and the Qin soldiers were shivering from the cold. If they couldn't even hold their swords and guns, wouldn't they be at the mercy of others?
Liu Shuai felt terrified, but he didn't dare to say these words, even the lieutenant beside him didn't dare to tell them.If it is said and let the soldiers know, the morale of the army will be even more lax.
During this period of time, rumors have spread everywhere, and rumors can no longer affect the morale of the army and the people.
The current Liu Shuai is eager for Xia Guo to attack quickly, he is not afraid of a fight to the death, what he is afraid of is that he will die aggrieved.
"It seems that Xia Guo's other armies are also plotting this way!" Liu Shuai sighed, thinking to himself.
That's right, Liu Shuai guessed right.
The other seven soldiers and horses of Daxia did not march fast, and the fastest ones were the soldiers and horses of Chen Qingzhi and Yue Fei.
Chen Qingzhi and Gan Ning left the pass from Nanli Pass, and each led an army of 15. They went west from Jiuquan County, which is south of Shanxi County, and attacked the capital of Qin in a roundabout way. The 15 army attacked the capital of Qin in a detour from Zichuan County, north of Shanxi County.
Needless to say, Xiao Rui's army in the middle, Li Cunxiao, Yang Youji, and Dian Wei each led an army of 15, and they left from the Atrium Pass.
Therefore, the marching speed of the Seventh Route Army varies, but if a meridian is drawn from north to south, their positions are basically on this meridian, but they are at different latitudes.
Although the division of troops into eight routes has advantages and disadvantages, the disadvantage is that the troops are too scattered and easily restrained by Qin.But the benefits are also obvious, because once you win, it will bloom everywhere, and you can get the Qin country as quickly as possible.
Obviously, whether it is Xiao Rui, Han Xin, or Zhang Liang, Xiao He, they are full of confidence in the soldiers of Daxia, and they are not afraid of being restrained. They think that Qin has no ability to restrain and stop Daxia.
At this time, when there were still sixty or seventy miles away from Shanxi County, Ying Falcon sent over the situation of the other seven roads. What Xiao Rui didn't expect was that it wasn't their middle road army that first fought with Qin soldiers. It is Li Cunxiao's soldier and horse.
Li Cunxiao's 15 soldiers and horses walked in the area bordering Shanxi County and Jiuquan County. After they captured two innocuous cities, they encountered the Qin army when they continued to march.
This Qin army has 13 regular Qin troops and 20 forced conscripts, so there are [-] troops. They set up pocket formations between the two mountains.Once Li Cunxiao's soldiers and horses pass the two mountains, they may be outflanked and get into trouble.
The leading general was named Bai Lin, who was naturally a member of the Bai family. He was full of confidence that he could completely wipe out this Great Xia enemy army.
It's just that he was so happy and proud that he ignored it. Since Da Xia was divided into eight groups, Li Cunxiao chose this route, wouldn't he know that there are two mountains here, which are good places to ambush?
In addition to arrogance, there is another possibility of knowing but doing it, and that is expected.
Chapter 669: Use yourself as bait!
In the route chosen by Li Cunxiao, when passing through the border of Shanxi County and Jiuquan County, he needs to cross two peaks called Wangshan and Lishan. These two peaks are more than [-] meters high. Although they are not high, they are beautiful and natural.
There is only one mountain road between the two mountains, but because of the favorable conditions for setting up an ambush, the Qin general Bai Lin naturally chose to set up a pocket formation here.
Unless Li Cunxiao's soldiers and horses went around, if they headed straight, they would naturally fall into the pocket formation and be surrounded.This is also the reason why Bai Lin, the general of the Qin State, is proud. If he has 20 soldiers and horses, if he can't stop the enemy, he will be ashamed to be a descendant of the Bai family.
So for Li Cunxiao, knowing that the Qin army had set up an ambush, why did he go this way?
Naturally, it is because of tricks.
Li Cunxiao had 15 soldiers and horses. In order to follow his strategy, he did not push all his troops to Wangshan and Lishan. Instead, he kept [-] troops to hide behind, and [-] soldiers and horses formed a long front and stopped in front of the mountains.
Then Li Cunxiao led his soldiers and horses through the mountain road. Because the mountain road was narrow and only three or four meters wide, Li Cunxiao's army could not pass through it in a short time, so it soon fell into Bai Lin's pocket formation and encountered the opponent's attack.
Bai Lin took advantage of the terrain to beat Li Cunxiao back, and had to flee back, while Bai Lin took the opportunity to pursue him.
The counselor beside him reminded Bai Lin: "General, be careful that this is an enemy's conspiracy!"
Bai Lin was overjoyed, and said: "The opponent only has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, what kind of conspiracy can there be! Don't take advantage of the victory to pursue it now, let alone wait! Daqin needs a victory now, and now has the opportunity to be the first army to defeat the enemy. How can you waste the generals! And this enemy army is weak in fighting power, look at their leader, although he is tall and thick, he competed with me, and almost lost the long spear in his hand! Martial arts cannot be disguised!"
The counselor thought for a while, and did not persuade him any more.The current Daqin needs to make a good start and use victory to make up for the shaken hearts. If Bai Lin can annihilate this Xia army, then his name will resound throughout Qin and become the new successor of the Bai family.
"The army obeys the order, follow me to pursue!" Bai Lin immediately ordered the herald to notify his subordinates, and then began to pursue Xia Jun.
After Li Cunxiao led his troops back, he continued to retreat eastward, and soon reached the place where he set up an ambush.
God knows how difficult it is for him to pretend to be a weakling, it's exhausting.In fact, according to Li Cunxiao's character, there is no need to feign defeat to attract the enemy's attack. Even if the opponent takes advantage of the terrain, Li Cunxiao can lead the soldiers to rush over and win the victory.
This is Li Cunxiao's pride.
But, who told Zhang Liang to give him a kit to design this way.
Zhang Liang told Li Cunxiao in the kit that Qin State needs victory, and its generals need victory even more, so as long as it is simply lured, the enemy will definitely pursue it.In fact, why doesn't Daxia need a victory to make a good start?
Li Cunxiao was brave and brave. Although he could win by forcing his way into the enemy's pocket formation, his own side would also have to lose troops. After all, he took advantage of the terrain.But if the opponent is drawn out, Li Cunxiao will occupy the ground, so that the victory will not only result in less losses, but also wipe out more enemies.
In the Eighth Route Army, Li Cunxiao was the first to plan for a big victory!
So Li Cunxiao obeyed Zhang Liang's strategy obediently, but he didn't expect that the general of the Qin army would fall into the trick.
