There are no tricks, only head-on attacks. Now Zhao Jun can't even get around Qin Jun's back! ——If Danzhu Ridge has not been lost yet...
The remnants of the troops stationed at Danzhu Ridge set up camp fences in the already crowded valley: ten camps were lined up along the perimeter of the valley. There is no more room for him. Although he suffered heavy losses and lost his position, even the remaining soldiers were more than 5,000. In the era of cold weapons, as long as timely reinforcements were requested, the rate of death on the spot was very low. The ten thousand man general was very concerned about this and brought down all the lightly and seriously injured people he could bring down - but he did not get enough camps to accommodate them. There are not enough doctors. For a defeated army like him, there are not enough doctors to send out to rescue him.
Ten thousand people serving as the main attacker will try to extend his front, but only four battalions will be deployed at a time. The original defensive direction of his troops was the Danshui line, and the front of the troops was pointing towards Danshui; now it was turned ninety degrees, and the flanks became the front. If there was enough room to move, he could turn around; but there wasn't. He can only attack from existing camps. Despite all the inconveniences, the ten thousand generals adjusted their forces to the extent possible: they moved the most combat-effective troops to offensive positions and reorganized them.
To attack from the bottom of the mountain, the situation is very unfavorable. Ten Thousand People will gather the four 500-man generals who participated in the attack, their superiors' four thousand-man generals, and their reserve four 500-man generals, as well as the supervisor's 5000-man generals. While the soldiers When it is time to move camp, carefully check the attack area. The Qin army on the mountain saw this and fired a few arrows downwards, but they were all out of range, so they stopped shooting. Just monitor their every move.
Wang Ling got the report and came to check. The people at the foot of the mountain were wearing bright armor and were followed by guards. They were obviously not ordinary people, but high-ranking officers. A hundred paces away, you couldn't hear what they said, and judging from their gestures, it was obvious that they wanted to take action in this area.
During the daytime battle, Wang Ling went from the bottom of the mountain to the mountain and launched a wide frontal attack on the Zhao army in Danzhu Ridge. Zhao Jun was attacked from behind, and the fortifications he built were completely useless, so he could only fight in the field. Ten thousand people will personally command and launch counterattacks against the Qin army again and again. However, the Qin army was strong in strength and mobilized all the archers in the army to attack the Zhao army in a corner. Moreover, before the Guanzhong Army set out, they received several months of tactical training in Xianyang hosted by Zheng Anping; after arriving in Hedong, they received combat training under the guidance of Bai Qi; in addition, they had just won a victory, and the victorious Maoer was as powerful as a tiger. The combat effectiveness is much stronger than that of Zhao Jun. Overwhelming Zhao Jun in almost all aspects.
Although Zhao Jun was at a disadvantage, he fought desperately under the personal supervision of tens of thousands of generals. After all, with nearly saturated troops on the battlefield and a steady stream of reinforcements behind them, it would not be easy for the Qin army to defeat them at once. After fighting hard all day, the Zhao army was finally compressed to an area of less than one mile square. Tens of thousands of people saw that the situation was irreversible, so they ordered the withdrawal. Although Wang Ling occupied the fortress of Danzhuling, the losses were relatively large. They managed to make a profit by cutting off the heads of Zhao's wounded soldiers.
Baili Shicheng was divided into three areas by Bai Qi, each area included a foothill pointing to the Zhao Jun Valley. Wang Ling is responsible for the westernmost section of about thirty miles, with Danzhu Ridge as the core. The foot of the mountain extending to the south is almost connected to the foot of the middle mountain where General Zhao's tent is located, with only a narrow gentle slope in between.
Wang Ling fights fiercely and likes tough attacks. When I saw the Zhao army on the mountain, it seemed that they were about to attack. The first thing I thought of was to attack first and disrupt the enemy's deployment. The Qin and Zhao armies were separated by a mountain valley, making it inconvenient to mobilize their armies. Wang Ling transferred a battalion and ordered them to launch an attack on the Zhao army on the opposite side after breakfast tomorrow.
By this time, tens of thousands of people would have gone back after viewing the terrain, but the mobilization of troops was not yet over. The official said: "The camp is noisy, so there must be an opening. I would like to attack at night!" Wang Ling patted his shoulder and said: "Good man, if you need anything, please tell me!"
The official didn't say anything and took his battalion down the mountain. As soon as his troops left the camp, they were discovered by the Zhao army on the opposite side and hurriedly beat drums to warn them. At this time, the camp was being mobilized. The troops who had been transferred had not yet put down their bags, and the troops who were about to be transferred were also carrying their own bags and forming a team. Suddenly they heard the enemy police and they all became busy. Fortunately, ten thousand generals are still in the camp, and they gave the order: "Everyone unload your bags!" "Get out of the gate!"
The gate was wide open, and the troops who had not yet been transferred were the first to rush out. Before they could form their formation, the Qin army on the opposite side had already rushed within a hundred steps. A hail of arrows struck, knocking out the Zhao army who was forming their formation. They turned around and ran towards the gate. The Qin army quickly followed up, and when they were twenty or thirty steps behind, they fired another volley. People on both sides of the gate fell one after another after being hit by arrows. The gate was blocked, making it difficult for the people in the camp to get out. They prepared to go up the wall to meet the enemy, but were forced back by the approaching direct fire.
Ten thousand people will ask the transferred battalion to retreat twenty or thirty steps, control the archers at the other end of the battalion, and tell them to aim at the position of the gate.
The Zhao army, which was crowded at the gate and unable to enter the camp, dispersed along the wall of the camp, and the Qin army rushed into the gate. Ten thousand people gave an order, and their bows and arrows shot straight at the gate. Although the first batch of people who rushed in were all shield soldiers, their formation was slightly irregular when they entered. Arrows took advantage of the situation and shot down several people. The people behind did not flinch and followed closely. Zhao Jun fired a series of arrows. With one arrow, he shot down all the Qin troops. But as the shield soldiers entered, the power of the arrows became increasingly diminished. Thousands of people will be ordered to charge. Zhao Jun rushed forward and started a desperate fight with Qin Jun in the camp.
When Wang Ling saw the Qin army rushing into the Zhao camp on the stone city, he shouted with joy! But soon he saw that the backup could not get in, and knowing that the resistance inside was fierce, he shouted anxiously: "Destroy its walls, destroy its walls!" His subordinates heard Wang Ling's cry and brought a hundred spears with them. The soldiers rushed over. While charging, he shouted: "Destroy its walls, destroy its walls!" Finally the Qin army in front heard it, picked up their weapons, and smashed the camp fence and gate. Ten thousand people will command the archers to shoot at the Qin army behind the wall, but the effect is not good.
One hundred spearmen from Wang Ling's personal camp arrived in an instant. They thrust their spears into the wall and pushed them hard together, finally knocking down the fence. The Qin army swarmed in through the knocked down fence. The archers on both sides shot at each other's back, and the two sides in front were intertwined, and no one dared to shoot.
One hundred spearmen also joined the battle after knocking down the fence. The camp supervisor was smarter and followed the fence to behind Zhao Jun and launched an attack, disrupting Zhao Jun's position. Thousands of people saw that the situation was not good, abandoned their troops and fled first. When the archers saw the spearmen approaching, they jumped off the fence and ran away. The remaining Zhao troops no longer had the will to fight, so they retreated, either climbing up the fence and escaping over the wall, or opening the gate and running out. Those who could not run away became the targets of the Qin army's harvest.
Thousands of people will flee to a nearby camp, and they will immediately be alerted, and have people leave the camp to direct the broken troops to gather in an orderly manner. The Zhao army had been busy all night; but after the Qin officers and officers defeated the Zhao army, they arranged sentries and ordered everyone to rest. Zhao Jun wants to cook rice and rice, and there are a lot of fire pits. The Qin army was eating fried millet and there was no need to open fire. After the battle, the fire in the fire pit was extinguished, but the residual warmth was still there, which was just right on a mid-autumn night. The Qin soldiers gathered around the fire pit and snored to sleep.
Wang Ling was also very satisfied when he saw that a wedge had been driven into the middle of the Zhao army. When the people from the pro-camp came back, only a few of them were slightly injured, and they were given a few compliments. After a while, the official's personal camp sent a report of meritorious service and sent the injured soldier back. Wang Ling ordered them to be sent to the women's houses and workshops at the foot of the mountain. ——It has been opened up as a receiving station for wounded soldiers of the Qin Army.
Without Zhao Jun's military rations and money, most of the businesses at the foot of the mountain would no longer be able to continue, and everyone who could leave would leave. Those with weak financial resources and unable to leave were taken in by the Qin army as temporary shelters for wounded soldiers. A lot of grain was seized from Zhao Jun's camp, which was just enough for them to use as rations.
The Qin army in Shicheng did not fight many battles and suffered few casualties. Wang Ling's troops evacuated the wounded on a large scale for the first time.
Doctors who accompany the army are deployed along with the officers during the recruitment process of the army, and there is generally a quota. When encircling the mountain road, these doctors naturally would not accompany them; after settling down behind Shicheng Mountain, those attached personnel also returned to camp and stationed themselves behind the mountain. Two to three thousand wounded soldiers suddenly came down from the Wang Tomb, which kept the doctors busy for a while.
The logistics support behind the mountain was assigned to Hanoi. The method turned out to be purely commercial: rent private transportation power to transport materials to the camp behind the mountain; after obtaining the festival talisman, go to each county to cancel it, which can replace taxes, or it can be centralized to exchange for some kind of franchise. Due to the smooth flow of business roads, apart from the lack of prosperity, commercial activities have not stopped, and news from various places can still be transmitted.
Before sunset, Wang Ling had just submitted a document to report his merits, and now he received another one. Wang Ling was not afraid of trouble and ordered his subordinates to write a copy and send it to Bai Qi at night.
The next day, Bai Qi sent an order: All the Shicheng garrison was under the control of Wang Ling. This is not surprising: the troops in the direction of Shicheng come from three places, Guanzhong, Shangjun and Beidi. Both Shangjun and Beidi are led by county lieutenants. The Shangjun lieutenant is a public servant. Beidi Lieutenant Li Bing is still a public official. Only Guanzhong There was no county captain in the army, so a fifth official was sent to lead it. Among the generals of the three armies, Wang Ling has the highest title, so it is reasonable for him to command the entire Shicheng army.
After Li Bing received Bai Qi's order, he informed Wang Ling of the enemy situation in front of him. Wang Ling said to Li Bing: "My son and I are hundreds of miles apart; you just do what's appropriate. If you win, the credit will be yours; if you lose, you can share it with me!"
Li Bing was very moved and said: "I will definitely live up to the general's expectations! In my land, there are mountains where the enemy is stationed for food. I hope to capture it in the near future!"
Wang Ling replied without hesitation: "Yes!"
