Chapter 1708: House of Flying Daggers (Part 2)
“King Han, we finally broke out from the Qin army’s encirclement.”
Yuan Tan's face was full of joy and he said to Han Xin: "This place is less than fifty miles away from the border of South Korea. It can be reached in less than a day's journey."
Han Xin couldn't help but nodded when he heard the words. He naturally knew what Yuan Tan said, but for some reason, he always felt uneasy in his heart, as if he had overlooked something important.
“The 200,000 Qin troops who were pursuing them have been left behind and will not be able to catch up in a short time. Moreover, the vast plains here are not suitable for setting up an ambush.”
Han Xin frowned and fell into deep thought, but he couldn't figure it out. He couldn't help but mutter to himself: "What did I overlook? Where does this uneasiness come from?"
I have to say that when a truly powerful commander is caught in a conspiracy, even if he doesn't know it, he will automatically warn him deep in his heart, creating a feeling that makes him extremely uneasy.
Bai Qi was like this, and so was Han Xin.
This is not the first time Han Xin has had this feeling. He also trusts this hunch. Every time it occurs, when he reviews the whole thing, he can always analyze some other things.
But this time, no matter how Han Xin analyzed it and recalled it repeatedly in his mind, nothing was analyzed. Everything was so normal, but how did this feeling come about?
“Am I really thinking too much?” Han Xin thought to himself.
Seeing that the whole army was looking very relaxed after a disaster, and even the formation was a little loose, Han Xin felt even more uneasy, and immediately ordered sternly: "Give me the order immediately, and before arriving in northern Hebei, No one should slack off in the slightest, and anyone who disobeys the order will be killed without mercy.”
Yuan Tan was stunned and said with a smile: "King Han, is this necessary?"
Han Xin glanced at Yuan Tan and said calmly: "Be cautious, you can never make a big mistake."
"This...what the King of Han said is true, why don't you hurry up and deliver the order." Yuan Tan agreed.
)
As soon as General Han Xin’s order came out, the mood of the coalition forces suddenly improved a lot, but most people still disagreed. After all, even if an ambush was set up, it should be in the mountainous area in front, and the flat plains here are not suitable for setting up an ambush at all.
What everyone, including Han Xin, didn't know was that the flat land they considered unsuitable for an ambush was full of Qin soldiers behind the steep **** not far from them.
Of course, steep slopes alone cannot hide a hundred thousand troops. In addition to relying on steep slopes to hide, the Qin army also dug large and small trenches in the plains heading north.
Hundreds of trenches are arranged in an intricate and orderly manner on the plains of northern Hebei, like a rough painting.
Most of the Qin army lay motionless in the trenches, with flowers and plants on their helmets. For fear of being discovered by the coalition forces, they even pooped and peed on the spot, and then buried them with sand to block the smell of feces.
“Don’t set up an ambush in the mountains, but instead set up an ambush in the plains.”
Qin Hao's eyes were full of admiration and he praised: "Military advisor, your move is really amazing. No wonder even Han Xin can't see the flaw."
Zhang Liang smiled calmly and said: "How can a famous general like Han Xin be easily defeated?
Therefore, the easier it is to set up an ambush, the more cautious he will be, and the more difficult it will be for a successful ambush. However, this seemingly impossible place to set up an ambush will actually lower Han Xin's vigilance.
The real significance of setting up this ambush at such a high cost was not to ambush the coalition forces, but to catch Han Xin by surprise.
With the elite combat strength of our army of 130,000, even if we fight head-on, we can still defeat the 100,000-strong Korean and Zhao coalition forces. If we can catch the opponent off guard, the Korean and Zhao coalition forces will be completely helpless, and the casualties of our army will be will also be reduced to a minimum. "
After hearing Zhang Liang's words, Qin Hao couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Zhang Liang is worthy of being a sage seeker. Even when facing the military immortal Han Xin, he can still defeat the opponent to death.
In the final analysis, the duel between Han Xin and Bai Qi suffered from the loss of the military advisor. Although Tian Feng and Jushou were also excellent in intelligence, they were still not as good as Guo Jiadu, let alone Zhang Liang.
In the Jizhou War, if there could be a strategist with an intelligence of over 100 to help Han Xin, Han Xin might not be forced to this extent by Bai Qi.
Of course, every person with an intelligence of over 100 has a very far-sighted vision, and it is basically impossible for him to seek refuge with Han Xin.
Although Han Xin's fighting ability is among the best in the world, he is not a qualified monarch. Even if his political attribute is improved by 5 points, it still fails to break 80, only 77 points.
As a king, you don’t need strong personal force or superb military skills, but politics must not be low, and Han Xin ranks last among all the princes.
Therefore, even if Han Xin won repeated battles against Yuan Shao, Han Xin would always be the passive one being beaten. Every time, it was Yuan Shao who took the initiative to attack South Korea.
Back to the topic.
One hundred thousand Korean and Zhao coalition troops soon left the mountainous areas and all arrived in the plains.
The Qin army, ambushed on all sides, distributed its troops like a big bag, and the mouth of the bag was aimed at the exit of the mountainous area. As soon as the coalition forces left the mountainous area, they naturally entered the pocket formation.
“Report...to the Commander-in-Chief, the Korean and Zhao armies have left the mountainous area and have completely entered our army’s pocket formation.”
"good."
Bai Qi suppressed the excitement in his heart and said indifferently: "Send the order, the armies of the ten directions and the generals of the ten directions will attack immediately."
)
Woo…Woo…
Roaring horns and roaring war drums suddenly sounded. The ten generals who had led ten armies and had been in ambush for a long time, when they received this signal, they immediately shouted at the same time: "Kill..."
Boom…
The killing cries of hundreds of thousands of troops from ten directions sounded like thunder, instantly resounding throughout the entire plain.
As fast as the wind, as slow as the forest, as aggressive as fire, as motionless as a mountain, as unpredictable as the shadows, and as moving as thunder.
Ten Qin armies ambushing in ten directions simultaneously launched an attack on the Han and Zhao coalition forces in the center from ten directions.
Left: Xue Rengui from the first team, Jiang Song from the second team, Gao Chong from the third team, Huang Feihu from the fourth team, Hu Luguang from the fifth team;
Right: Li Jing of the first team, Yuwen Chengdu of the second team, Sun Lingming of the third team, Long Qie of the fourth team, and Zhang Han of the fifth team.
The 100,000 Korean and Zhao coalition forces in the center, under the impact of shouts of killing from all directions, suddenly felt that they were enemies on all sides. When they looked at it again, they found that they were really Qin troops on all sides, and they were boundless as far as the eye could see, with no end in sight.
Faced with this situation, the morale of the Korean and Zhao coalition forces suddenly plummeted, and even the formation began to scatter.
Some soldiers were so frightened that they couldn't even resist, so they wanted to escape. However, no matter where they ran, there were enemies, and they realized that there was no way to escape.
The first update is guaranteed...there will be more later.
Thanks to the book friend Xiangyun Huanyue for the 10,000 starting coins, I added an additional chapter. Currently, I owe a total of 7 chapters.
