[Qin] Qin Shi

Chapter 146 The silver saddle illuminates the white horse

In the sixth month of the seesaw between Qin and Chu, Chu was the first to be unable to resist Qin's firm policy, and the first to break the deadlock between the two sides.However, before the Chu army really moved out, there was an emergency call for help from Pengcheng behind the Chu garrison—Qin cavalry detoured to surprise Pengcheng.

Pengcheng is a key city that the Chu army's logistics must pass through. If there is a loss in Pengcheng, then the Chu army's 60 troops will inevitably fall into a similar beginning to that of Zhao Guo in Changping.In order to defend Pengcheng and prevent Qin from cutting off the Chu army's retreat and causing the Chu army to fall into a passive situation of being besieged, Xiang Yan decided to return to Pengcheng to relieve the current crisis.

And this fell into Bai Shu's calculations.When the scouts reported back to Meng Tian the news of the Chu army's departure and return, Bai Shu was feeding Fusu in the martial arts arena. When he saw Meng Tian coming in a hurry, Bai Shu folded his hands and handed over the sword in Fusu's hand: In a hurry, but there is good news?"

Fusu, who was glad that he had been in Bai Shu's hands for so long, looked at Bai Shu subduing him casually, and pursed his lips, realizing that the other party was just teasing him before.

"The Chu army has moved." The three-month confrontation with the Chu army has exhausted the Qin army. Seeing that the opponent returns to the rescue as they expected, Meng Tian, ​​who can finally get out of the nest, has already been working hard. , "It is in the direction of Pengcheng. It seems that the surprise attack has been successful. Pengcheng has now fallen into the hands of our army."

Bai Shu casually tossed the sword handed over from Fusu to the side, his eyes burning, "Let's go," ignoring Fusu who was behind him, "The whole army is assembled, the general will obey orders! After so long, Xiang Yan's old thing has finally moved!"

While speaking, Bai Shu strode towards the main tent, unable to hide his excitement.Meng Tian grunted and turned to look for someone, while Fu Su frantically put away the saber that Bai Shu threw, and trotted after Bai Shu's figure.

By the time Bai Shu put on the black armor and came to the main tent, all the soldiers had already assembled. After living in a small house for so long, everyone's eyes were full of fighting spirit and excitement: "General Li Xin, you will lead 10 people to attack directly. Yingchen, divide up a team of scouts and take a shortcut to Pengcheng, order them to withdraw their troops and join you to attack Yingchen, and you must conquer Yingchen within two days—remember to burn all the food and grass before evacuating Pengcheng, but don’t disturb the people.”

"Yes!" Li Xin took a step forward and took the warrant thrown by Bai Shu.

The small map in Bai Shu's mind is advancing rapidly: "General Meng Tian, ​​according to what I said earlier, you will lead 15 people to chase Xiang Yan's Chu soldiers from the rear. Don't press too hard, but don't bite too loose. When the enemy advances, we retreat, and when the enemy retreats, we advance. Naturally, it would be great if we can defeat the enemy. Don’t worry about scattered deserters. We must make the main army of Chu return to Pengcheng smoothly.”

Throw the already written warrant to Meng Tian: "If you can't break the enemy, divide into small groups to harass the enemy's morale, and attack after five rounds. If you still can't break the enemy after two times, this general will allow you Withdraw the troops, and the squadron should not continue to pursue the Chu army when they return to the manor, and the survival of the Daqin soldiers is the most important thing."

Meng Tian quickly caught the warrant, and said loudly and crisply, "Yes!"

"Vice General Mao, Vice General Tian, ​​you two lead [-] cavalry to detour behind Gushan, and cooperate with General Meng Tian to pinch the Chu army. Don't worry about the fleeing Chu army. They will clean up after they are two miles away from the lord." The biggest advantage of cavalry is that It has good maneuverability. Although there are many mountains and forests in the south, it is difficult to move forward quickly, but it is not a problem to clean up the collapsed and exhausted deserters.

At this time, only victory is the truth they need.

The two lieutenants of the warrant went out and took the warrant: "Yes!"

"On the way back to Pengcheng from Chen County and Pingyu, there are many valleys." The sword in Bai Shu's hand landed on the sand table, marking out the boundaries for everyone, "Deputy General Mao, Vice General Tian, ​​help General Meng Tian to drive people away Go in the valley, here, here and here is the best."

"If it goes well, we can form an encirclement with the Qin army ambushing here. The primary goal is to minimize the loss of our army and reduce the enemy's combat power, but remember not to hurt the general. If it doesn't go well, the soldiers on both sides will withdraw again. Don't fight directly with Xiang Yan's army, move closer to General Meng Tian's team with the main purpose of protecting yourself, merge with him and pursue them again-don't push too hard, bite your tail and force them to Pengcheng as the last good."

Bai Shu's sword drew several circles on the sand table one after another: "If General Li Xin conquers Yingchen Zhibao within two days, General Meng Tian must pay attention to the movements of the Chu army. , Don’t obstruct and intervene, let him go back to help. At the same time, send scouts back to Chen County, transfer troops to your place, conquer Xiang Yan, and destroy the Chu army.”

He spoke very fast, and these words seemed to come out of his mouth without thinking, or it was because he thought too much that he didn't need to think about it again: "If Lord Changping got the news but had no intention of returning to help, withdraw one hundred thousand Qin soldiers Yu Yingchen was dispatched by General Li Xin, and Yingchen's soldiers abandoned Yingchen and went south to attack Shouchun."

Listed all possible situations to the soldiers: "Yan Yu followed General Li Xin, and Yan Ying followed General Meng Tian. You will be responsible for appeasing the people of Chu. Send an order to the chamber of commerce to ask them to buy grain and grass at a low price. , and spread the law of Qin to the public - the losses involved will be made up by the Qin army afterwards."

The only few youths in the claim who didn't wear battle armor came up, and two of them bowed their hands to Bai Shu and said in unison.

"Qian..." Bai Shu paused, "Su Qing is in charge of rear reserve coordination and the whereabouts of the chamber of commerce. Make sure to keep up with the military supplies in the direction of Pengcheng and Yingchen, and you will cooperate to win the deputy general's [-] troops. Be ready to help General Li Xin and General Meng Tian at any time. If there is no accident, the Chu army will not counterattack Chen County, but if there is an accident, the main priority is to protect ourselves."

Bai Shu looked around at the expressions on the faces of the soldiers in the main tent: "The Chu army is eager to break the siege of Pengcheng this time. In case our army cuts off his backup, they must be eager to return to help. The army's morale is in turmoil and has no intention of entangled with our army. What are you doing this time?" In order to reduce the morale and combat power of the enemy, it is not for total annihilation, so conquering is the bottom, attacking the heart is the top, don't entangle."

As for him: "The rest follow me along the middle road to take Qinan. If Lord Changping and Xiang Yan have not divided their forces, I will turn north to join General Meng Tian in an attempt to encircle the Chu army. General Li Xin will still take Shouchun. If Xiang Yan splits his route, then General Li Xin will withdraw his troops to join us and then annex Shouchun."

The reason why Chu State has been difficult to attack for so many years is because Chu State is the only country among the seven countries where the system of enfeoffing princes and princes is still popular because of its vast landforms.This led to the extremely scattered power of the Chu State, and most of the Chu kings were puppets who were forced to wait. Although they also had changes like Qin, they regressed because they touched the interests of the princes and lords.

But in the same way, such power is dispersed among the princes, so that all parts of the Chu state do not respect the king of Chu and support their soldiers. It was so rare that it twisted into a strand—what Bai Shu had to do was to break up the strand.

Ying Chen is the territory of Lord Changping, and Xiang Yan is the general who supported the king of Chu, Xiong Lingchu. These two people are not from the same place at the root, and they will naturally have disputes in the face of different interests.Qinan is located in the middle area with a relatively equal distance from Pengcheng and Yingchen. Whether it is divided or not, Li Xin and Meng Tian can meet with him at any time for a tug-of-war, and the remaining troops can be drawn by the Chu army. It's hard to take Shouchun directly or destroy the Chu army.

If Shouchun and Xiong Lingchu, king of Chu, were captured, then the overall situation would have fallen into Qin's hands.But after destroying the main force of the Chu army, Shouchun naturally has no resistance, and is still a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.The premise of all this is that Lord Changping and Xiang Yan will not counter-plan and turn their troops to besiege Qinan from both sides of Yingchen and Pengcheng.

It's just that if they besiege Qinan, Bai Shu has a way to deal with it.

He pondered for a while: "The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and the overall situation is difficult to determine. It is the best strategy to trap the enemy in Pengcheng or Yingchen. But if the situation changes, Shu allows you to change your plan to deal with the enemy by yourself, but you must send a letter to inform the others. General, don't let yourself fall into the fatigue of fighting alone."

Speaking of this, everyone's fighting spirit was at its peak, and when his voice fell, it was a shocking voice of consent.The general who took the order strode away from the main tent with a warrant to dispatch troops, while Fusu stood in the corner, looking at Bai Shu with piercing eyes, at the black armor on his body, and at his confident gesture of directing thousands of troops .

It was completely different from his previous appearance. When he removed the smile on his face and the gentleness in his eyes, and looked at the general standing not far away at the moment, Fusu really understood why his father left him alone. There are so many masters in Xianyang, and they insisted that he recognize this man as Zhongfu.

Because of his experience, Fu Su couldn't tell why his heart throbbed when he looked at Bai Shu at this moment.But what he knows is that this is what his father wants him to see, what he wants him to learn, what he still doesn't know how to describe: "What about me, Father Zhong?"

Fu Su sincerely called out Bai Shu's address: "Su also wants to do something for Father Zhong."

Seeing Fusu's eagerness to try, Bai Shu chuckled lightly, raised his hand and pinched Fusu's still baby-fat cheeks: "This shouldn't be a war where Mr. Da Qin appears." At this time, he didn't Calling the other party 'Bai Su', "If you are really curious, follow your valet and watch from afar."

Just as he was speaking, the man with one finger missing who had been silently following behind Fusu walked into the tent.Seeing Bai Shu's movements, he frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything.

Because Fusu turned his back to the tent, he didn't see the other party coming, so he just looked up at Bai Shu: "Why?"

"Because you are the son of Daqin," Bai Shu chuckled, and let go of Fusu's cheeks, which had been much thinner than when he left Xianyang. become your people."

Fusu was still puzzled.

"Your Highness, didn't you say that from now on, Qin will no longer need someone to kill his own compatriots, and there will never be soldiers who die by his own hands?" Bai Shu laughed softly, with a gentle look on his face. Looking at Fusu who was still very young, "Be kind to your people, don't just forget what you said."

"I haven't forgotten, they are obviously enemies!" Fusu frowned, and refuted the other party's obvious sophistry, "Since they are not the people of my Great Qin now, why should I treat them like Qin people?" Treat them—especially if they cause my old Qin people to bleed and die?”

"Whether it's Chu or Qi, they are all clansmen of the same origin as the old Qin people. From now on, your highness, you must try to accept them." Bai Shu rubbed Fusu's blushing face from being pinched by him , "But Rong Di's mentality is not the same as that of Hua, and it is not our people who will be punished. They are the ones you should really beware of, Your Highness."

Fu Su blushed, trying to refute the adult's sophistry: "But if this is the case, you now—"

Knowing what Fusu wanted to say, Bai Shu snorted and laughed, and when he let go of his hand, he dug a handful of Fusu's hair: "Your Highness is Your Highness, Bai Shu is Bai Shu," the general who was about to go to war said in a gentle voice Ruyu, "Those blood and tears against siblings, those inexhaustible blood of hatred, let them end in the hands of the older generation."

Please Jun's three-foot sword, the beacon fire city head drains the liver and gallbladder.I have borrowed you for 30 years, and the country is full of flowers and thousands of miles.

I don't know what came to mind, Bai Shu looked at Fusu with extremely gentle eyes: "The world handed over to your little highness should be the pride of conquering the land and expanding the territory, and it should be the prosperity of the four directions coming to congratulate the eight parties coming to the dynasty. It should be a clean and prosperous beginning."

The author has something to say: Thank you Bei Xingyao and Lingling for mine~

I wrote a lot of Zuohua, and then the page suddenly convulsed, and all my Zuohua was exhausted (jj couldn’t save it automatically because there was nothing in the text).

No more, sigh, anyway, it’s just unimportant chatting and popular science, I found that I really can’t hold back how to write the war situation, I can only summarize it in a bald stroke, if this chapter feels sloppy, it’s definitely in the next chapter But I really can't write QaQ.

Part of the reason why Li Xin failed to attack Chu was because he served Qin at that time, and Lord Changping, who fought with him, was persuaded to choose to rebel against Qin, and Li Xin was stabbed in the back.The setting of this article is that he had already left Qin before Bai Shu voted for Qin.Lord Changping is the last King of Chu in the history of Chu after Xiong Negchu, but he will not appear again, as long as everyone knows about it.

By the way, I didn’t know until I read the comments yesterday that this article was on the ‘2019 Year-end Inventory’ Hey, am I a bit too Buddhist?

In addition, please ask the king to use the three-foot sword to drain the liver and gallbladder from the head of the beacon fire city.I have borrowed you for 30 years, and the country is full of flowers and thousands of miles.This, from the lyrics of Huo Zun's "Nine Songs of the Sky"
