Chapter 1706 Occupy Yecheng
Chapter 1704: Occupy Yecheng
Zhang Liang’s plan this time is complicated and complicated, but to say it is simple and simple, it is taking advantage of Han Xin’s desire to preserve his strength.
There are ambushing troops on three of the four roads returning to the north. Although the troops of Yecheng may not be able to force the rush, the price of forced breakthrough was unacceptable to Han Xin, so the north, which was ignored by both sides from the beginning, was the safest.
After the skill is turned on, Zhang Liang, who has intelligence 104, set a special trap based on Han Xin''s mind and nature, it is difficult for Han Xin to even be fooled.
If Han Xin''s intelligence was not suppressed, with his 96 points of intelligence, although he would not be able to see through Zhang Liang''s calculations, if he added the commander of 103, he might not be able to detect something wrong.
Unfortunately, Han Xin, whose intelligence was suppressed to 90, was completely led by Zhang Liang.
As for the others in the Han and Zhao armies, they have a kind of blind confidence in Han Xin. Han Xin said that the most dangerous north is the safest now. Will they break through in the other three directions?
Although wise men such as Tian Feng, Ju Su, and Xun Kan are famous strategists in Hebei, their intelligence is not even over 100. They are still a little short of seeing through Zhang Liang''s strategy.
Late night, midnight is coming.
After Han Xin looked up at the night, he realized that the time was almost over, and immediately ordered: "Break through."
Squeak…
The north gate was opened, and a large number of iron cavalry wrapped in cotton cloth ran out and headed straight for a Qin army camp in the north. Their mission was to break through the Qin army''s siege.
"Report... Report to the lord, the Qin army''s troops have indeed been transferred to other places. The troops in the Qin camp in the north are extremely empty. The two generals Yuan Hong and Zhang Kui have already captured this camp, and now the road to the north has been opened."
"good."
A hint of joy flashed in Han Xin''s eyes, and he ordered in a deep voice: "Nangong Changwan and Ma Shanwei, now you two lead an army of 10,000 to block the Qin army reinforcements in the southeast and buy time for the army to retreat."
"No."
The two generals were ordered to leave.
Subsequently, under Han Xin''s command, a large number of grain and material trucks were sent out from the north gate and quickly heading towards the direction of the north camp.
"Report to the lord, the reinforcements of the Qin army came from the east, and the general who led the army was Zhang Liao."
"Report... Report to the lord, the reinforcements of the Qin army came from the West, and the general who led the army was Long Qi."
Han Xin changed his color and ordered: "Immediately send orders to Nangong Changwan and Ma Shanwei, so that they must hold on for two hours, and the reinforcements will be sent to them immediately."
"No."
"Immediately, I will send an order to Yuan Hong and Zhang Kui, and each of them will lead 5,000 elite cavalry to support the intercepting army from both the east and west."
"No."
The Qin army''s reinforcements counterattack was very fierce, and the leading general was Zhang Liaolong and these two famous generals. Han Xin was worried that Nangong Changwan and Ma Shanwei could not bear it, so he sent Yuan Hong and Zhang Kui out again.
With the support of Yuan Hong and Zhang Kui, the pressure on the east and west sides to block the army was greatly reduced, and finally blocked the Qin army''s offensive.
Two hours later, when the last grain truck also drove on the road north, Han Xin''s heart that had been hanging around was finally relieved.
"Send a signal to Yuan Hong and the others immediately and let the intercepting army retreat." Han Xin ordered.
"No."
The intercepting army from both the east and the west side, when they received the order to retreat, retreated in the direction of Beidaying at full speed, and the Qin army immediately started pursuing this.
There were about 4,000 coalition forces who died in blocking the enemy''s reinforcements, but as many as 6,000 enemy troops who died in pursuit.
Just to delay time, the coalition forces lost another 10,000 troops, while the Qin army suffered minimal losses. Han Xin had actually expected this, but as long as he could bring the remaining 100,000 troops out of the Qin army''s encirclement, it would be worth it even if he sacrificed 10,000 troops.
“Hurry up, hurry up…”
Yuan Tan shouted anxiously, watching the slow-running soldiers die under the arrows of the Qin army, his heart was bleeding.
Most of the soldiers who died in the battle were from the Zhao army. After losing Yecheng, Zhao State had no inch of land and could not get replenished troops. One soldier would die less.
"Lord, most of the intercepting troops have been withdrawn, and the rest have been entangled by the Qin army and are destined to be unable to withdraw." Zhang Kuihui reported.
Han Xin nodded and said decisively, "Since that''s the case, I can only give up them. Let''s set fire."
"No."
With Han Xin''s order, the Northern Camp, which was filled with tinder oil, sulfur and other fire-induced objects, instantly turned into a sea of ??fire. A large number of coalition soldiers who did not escape were burned to death, which completely blocked the Qin army''s way to pursue the north.
"Okay, hurry up and retreat quickly."
Han Xin looked at the fire camp not far away and said lightly: "This fire cannot stop the Qin army for long, so we have to continue setting fires on important roads along the way to delay the Qin army''s pursuit speed, and our army takes advantage of this gap to run as far as we can."
"No."
On the other hand, when Qin Hao saw Han Xin using the method of blocking the road with a fire, he couldn''t help but chuckled: "This Han Xin is really useless to escape in order to escape, but he is destined to be unable to escape."
Qin Hao was not 100% sure, but when he learned that the Northern Camp was occupied, he could already determine that Han Xin had been trapped, and the next thing he had to do was to see Bai Qi and Zhang Liang''s performance.
"Lord, it''s time to go and take over Yecheng completely." Guo Jia said with a smile.
"Um."
Qin Hao nodded, waved his hand and said, "Let''s go and follow me to enter Yecheng and go see this third most famous city in the world."
Yecheng was both a big city and a strong city. It lasted for more than a month under the fierce attack of more than 500 castrate cars, more than 400 well railings, and more than 200,000 troops.
Now this strong city with 500,000 people is occupied by the Qin army without bloodshed.
At this time, Yecheng was far less magnificent than a month ago. The city walls were filled with dense cracks, and the houses near the city walls were basically smashed.
The people in the outermost area of ??the outer city have been moved to the inner city by Han Xin, so Qin Hao did not see a single person after entering the city.
Qin Hao glanced around, but saw devastated ruins. Nearly half of the houses in the outer city collapsed. It is conceivable that the inner city must be crowded with people.
"Fortunately, there was no decisive battle in Yecheng, otherwise, I would not know how much resources I would need to invest for post-disaster reconstruction."
Qin Hao sighed lightly, and then brought his subordinates into the prefect''s mansion together.
"Report to the lord, when Han Xin withdrew from Yecheng, he did not burn the materials he could not take away. The grain warehouse, armory, salt warehouse and other warehouses were intact."
"What?"
Qin Hao''s voice couldn''t help but become louder. After all, this is a capital enemy. With Han Xin''s shrewdness, how could he do this?
When Guo Jia heard this, his eyes lit up and he smiled and said, "Congratulations to lord, congratulations to lord, Han Xin may have given up his wishes."
