Far behind the battlefield, there is the Qi camp.
This is the place where the Qi army temporarily camped. In fact, the camp was empty and no one was here.
There were only a few hundred soldiers in the camp.
Tian Yu was in the camp, and he was extremely worried about the war on the front line. He even felt that the emperor's arrangement this time was really ridiculous, and he even interfered in arranging the army's attack without any rules.
The emperor occupies a high position, controls great power, and obeys his words. With such a status, he should not interfere in everything.
The governance of the country requires the emperor to take charge of the overall situation, but it does not require the emperor to know everything. As long as the emperor can make the best use of things, make the best use of people's talents, appoint talents to use, alienate traitors, restrain desires, and less blindly torment the people, the country will naturally function.
Even if the emperor's ability is poor, he can still be three points good.
This time, Tian He wantonly interfered with the command of the battlefield and even wanted to counterattack Lin Feng. He did not listen to advice at all and even insisted on going his own way. It is the most irrational and unwise thing to make an enemy of Qin even though you know that Qin is powerful, especially when your own strength is weak.
Unfortunately, Tian Yu couldn't stop it.
Tian Yu was in the camp. Because he was sent back by the emperor, he did not even have control over the army. He could only arrange a few personal guards around him to go to the front line to inquire about news, and then quietly wait for the news from the front line to be sent back.
Tian Yukun sat, feeling anxious as never before and unable to calm down at all.
He stood up and paced back and forth.
From time to time, Tian Yu looked up outside the camp and looked in the direction of the fighting on the front line. But at the moment, he could only be anxious.
Not long after Tian Yu waited, there was a sound of rapid footsteps. His bodyguards entered the camp directly and said with clasped fists: "Your Majesty, the battle has begun on the front line. Your Majesty has arranged for a large army to attack the Qin army's camp. Now the two sides are fighting."
"In this battle, our Qi side mobilized more than 20,000 troops. For the time being, we have taken the initiative. After all, the number of defenders in the Qin army's camp is very small."
The guard looked very relaxed.
In the eyes of the guards, this battle should not be difficult.
"well……"
Tian Yu sighed and explained: "In war, one division must be famous. Even if Your Majesty wins this battle, how will the people of the world view Your Majesty? How will the people of the world view our country, Qi?"
"What your Majesty did was a momentary act of bravery, which was clearly putting the cart before the horse. What your Majesty did was completely random and even more ridiculous."
"Even, I don't think we can win this battle."
"The Qin army is extremely resilient and will not be easily defeated. If the Qin army meets us in the wild, with more than 20,000 people in our hands and the Qin army's 4,000 elites, we will definitely be able to defeat the Qin army and win."
"The key is that at the moment, our side takes the initiative to attack and the other side defends."
"The number of troops consumed by the defending side is actually less. It does not require too many troops to hold the camp."
"So, the war may not go smoothly."
Tian Yu looked distressed and continued: "The most important point is that I am worried that Lin Feng has a conspiracy. Although Lin Feng is young, his behavior is like a thousand-year-old fox, extremely sophisticated and impeccable. This time, there are only 4,000 people defending Lin Feng’s camp, so it may not be Lin Feng’s conspiracy.”
Seeing this, the personal guard smiled and said with relief: "My lord, maybe you are thinking too much."
"It's not that you think too much, it's that you have to consider so much."
Tian Yu's eyes were firm and he said in a deep voice: "In the past, when the late emperor was here, he taught me a truth. To govern a country, the legal guidelines set should consider the evil of human nature and restrain it from the worst angle."
"If everything is arranged based on the goodness of human nature, there will definitely be big problems."
"Because managers have to control the worst aspects."
"For the same reason, when fighting a war, you should not only think about the best, but you must also consider the worst possibility. If you think about everything too well, the final result will be that everything will end."
"Once a bad situation occurs, it will completely collapse. Therefore, we must consider the worst-case scenario before making arrangements."
Tian Yu sighed and said: "It's a pity that your Majesty is too young and has never considered this at all. Your Majesty's actions this time are too willful and ridiculous."
When the bodyguard heard this, he sighed and said nothing.
The guards believed in Tian Yu's judgment, but the current situation had no impact for the time being. After all, the war was still in favor of the Qi side.
Tian Yu waved his hand and the guards retreated.
After the personal guards retreated, time passed little by little, and Tian Yu continued to wait for news from the front line in the camp. At the same time, Tian Yu was also thinking about the battle on the front line, whether there was anything missing, and whether there was anything he could intervene to change the situation.
It's a pity that Tian Yu doesn't have the troops now, so he can't intervene if he wants to.
"Report!"
At this moment, a burst of footsteps came.
The guard entered again, cupped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, it has been almost an hour since we have been fighting. The fight between us and the Qin army has become intense. The situation is temporarily frozen and we cannot win. The Qin army only has four thousand people, but it is hard to win." They blocked our attack of 20,000 people."
"It's bad."
Tian Yu sighed, looking helpless.
If victory is achieved quickly, so be it. The key is that the Qin army's camp has been unable to be broken, which makes the situation complicated.
The outcome of this battle is difficult to predict.
Tian Yu stood up and walked out of the camp, standing at the door of the camp and listening. Although he was far away from the front line, the fighting was so fierce that he could faintly hear the shouts of killing coming from far away. Tian Yu was waiting in the camp. After almost half an hour, a sentry from the front quickly ran back.
The sentry came to Tian Yu's side and quickly reported: "Your Majesty, something serious has happened. In the direction of the Qin army's camp ahead, when our army was fighting with the Qin army, a force suddenly came out nearby. This This force, all composed of cavalry, numbering tens of thousands, has completed the encirclement and completely surrounded His Majesty."
"Now, the war has begun."
"As soon as the Qin army's cavalry appeared, the entire fighting situation changed, and the offensive and defensive momentum was reversed."
The sentry looked panicked and reported: "This battle is showing signs of decline and we are beginning to lose."
"Your Majesty, you..."
Tian Yu couldn't help stamping his feet in anger.
Sure enough, this was Lin Feng's conspiracy and Lin Feng's plan. Lin Feng had already laid out his tactics and prepared an ambush early on. So this time, we can encircle them in a short time.
Tian Yu was a wise man. After a quick review in his mind, he immediately thought everything clearly.
At this moment, Tian Yu felt even more horrified.
According to Lin Feng's arrangement, it is obvious that Lin Feng has seen through everything about Tian He, and even more accurately predicts Tian He's temperament. Therefore, Lin Feng specifically humiliated Tian He and was sure that after Tian He returned to Qi, he would lead his army to fight back again, so Tian He was surrounded.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for the more than 12,000 Qin cavalry to come back. Although there were more than 16,000 Qin troops escorting Qin officials away before, they left without so many cavalry.
Obviously, these were temporary reinforcements transferred from Dafengkou.
Tian Yu was anxious, but there was no force around him at all, and the number of troops in the military camp was only a few hundred. It would be fanciful to rely on this power to stabilize or even reverse the situation.
Tian Yu's survival here is already the best outcome.
After Tian Yu thought about it, he had no choice but to say: "Send the order and everyone packs their bags immediately and prepares to retreat."
The sentinel quickly made arrangements. As the mission continued, there were only a few hundred soldiers left in the camp, all gathered together. The expressions on everyone's faces were tense, because the news that the emperor on the front line was surrounded had already spread.
The emperor had been captured once, and it was possible to become a prisoner again.
Tian Yu continued to wait. In less than two quarters of an hour, a sentry from the front rushed back. This time, the look on the sentry's face was panicked, even more frightened and uneasy, and he said loudly: "Your Majesty, something serious has happened. Your Majesty has been killed, and all our troops on the front line have been wiped out."
boom! !
Tian Yu's mind was like thunder exploding.
At this moment, Tian Yu felt that his eyes were blank, the surroundings suddenly became dark, and his body became weak and he was about to fall to the ground. Thanks to the soldiers' quick eyesight and quick hands, Tian Yu recovered after helping Tian Yu and giving him some treatment.
Tian Yu's eyes were red and he was extremely panicked.
The situation is too difficult.
The emperor first became a prisoner, causing Qi to fall into a dilemma. Now, the emperor has been killed again. After the death of the emperor, although Qi State has a prince who can succeed him, the key is that the prince is only two or three years old. The existence of a young emperor cannot completely stabilize the court, and the political affairs of Qi State may be unstable.
For a time, Tian Yu thought a lot. But no matter how he thought about it, he knew clearly that the immediate safety problem must be solved immediately, and he could only evacuate.
"retreat!"
Tian Yu finally gave the order.
Tian Yu quickly evacuated with more than a hundred soldiers and went straight back to Qi State. Because of the emperor's death, he must rush back to Linzi as quickly as possible, and then control the situation in Linzi with Yan Zichu and stabilize the situation in Qi.
Otherwise, Qi State will collapse, which Tian Yu will never allow.
Tian Yu led his people to evacuate, which actually did not have much impact on the Qin army, because the Qin army did not notice Tian Yu at all.
When Lin Feng and Wang Can led their men to fight and ended the war, Lin Feng returned to the camp. As for more soldiers, led by Zhao Feixiong, they counted the results of the battle.
In the evening, Zhao Feixiong and Wang Can led people to the Chinese army's tent.
When Zhao Feixiong saw Lin Feng, he clasped his fists and said, "Commander, after this battle, the results are rich. Our troops killed more than 3,600 people in the battle, but we killed more than 15,000 Qi soldiers and captured 4,000 alive." Qi soldiers."
"The rest of the Qi soldiers fled to the surrounding areas."
"The last general led his men to count the results of this battle and found that Qi Emperor Tian He was killed and Qi General Cao Wudao died in the battle. According to the information obtained during the interrogation, Tian He took the initiative to ask Cao Wudao to kill him at the end. I won’t let him become a prisoner.”
Zhao Feixiong had a look of surprise on his face.
Tian He was a timid person who was determined to retaliate against others, so he dared to die.
This is a surprising place.
Wang Can took the words and took the initiative: "According to the commander's arrangement, we not only captured Jizhou in this battle. But this time Tian He died, and the entire responsibility lies with Tian He. We fulfilled the agreement and released Tian He, but Tian He betrayed his promise. , turn around and attack us, and then we will fight back and kill Tian He. For this matter, we can ask Qi to raise another army to hold him accountable."
Lin Feng narrowed his eyes, frowned, and asked, "Have you ever discovered Langya King Tian Yu of Qi?"
"No, the person has escaped."
Zhao Feixiong shook his head.
Lin Feng looked puzzled and asked: "Qi's army was fighting with us, and Tian Yu was with Tian He. How come Tian He died and Tian Yu actually escaped? At that time, the cavalry was surrounded, and he was able to break out. After all, they are a minority."
Zhao Feixiong explained: "Shuai Lin, this matter will be brought to trial at the end. We know the reason."
Lin Feng said: "What's going on?"
Zhao Feixiong said: "It's a coincidence. It can be said that Tian He's fate should be like this, or Tian Yu's fate shouldn't be cut off. When Tian He decided to counterattack Lin Shuai, Tian Yu spoke out and strongly opposed it, thinking that it shouldn't be Counterattack commander."
"Because in Tian Yu's view, doing so is a breach of trust, and it is even more shameful."
"Tian He hated the commander and was determined to attack us. At the same time, he was angry and arranged for Tian Yu to be sent to the Qi Army camp in the rear. Because of the situation at that time, everyone knew that the Qi Army camp was empty, so he didn't bother at all .”
Zhao Feixiong sighed and said, "I didn't expect that Tian Yu would be in the camp. Fortunately, this person is actually not very important."
"No, you are wrong!"
Lin Feng sighed and said: "Actually, the result I want to achieve most in this war is to capture Tian He and kill Tian Yu."
Zhao Feixiong looked puzzled and asked: "Commander, why? Tian He is the emperor of Qi, and his death will have the greatest impact on Qi. As for Tian Yu, he is just a prince."
"you are wrong."
Lin Feng shook his head.
Zhao Feixiong and Wang Can also looked over, but they didn't understand for the time being.
Lin Feng explained: "The reason is very simple. Tian He, the emperor of Qi State, has a violent temper, ruthless methods, and is determined to retaliate. He is self-willed and likes to get involved in everything. Such an emperor will have a greater influence on Qi State if he stays in Qi State. If it is large, it can further destroy the state of Qi."
"Of course, by keeping Tian He, we can continue to negotiate with Qi State and continue to extract benefits from Qi State."
"As for Tian Yu, he is the auxiliary minister of Qi State. He has outstanding abilities and can be called the mainstay. If such a person is alive, he will help Qi State stabilize the situation and bring order to chaos. Therefore, killing Tian Yu is equivalent to cutting off the power of Qi State. A mainstay of the country.”
"Now that Tian He is dead, there are fewer people who disturb the Qi State. With Tian Yu withdrawing, the pillars of the Qi State are still there, and there is no one who can restrain Tian Yu and Yan Zichu. With such a result, even if we win, In fact, reviewing the entire situation is not very good for us."
"Because Tian Yu and Yan Zichu can bring out the greatest strength of Qi State. Don't look at the fact that Qi State has lost more than 100,000 people. In fact, Qi State can easily mobilize hundreds of thousands of troops again if it mobilizes troops."
Lin Feng's eyes were sharp and he said in a deep voice: "The key is that Qi State has sufficient finances, money and food, and can fight at any time. Do you understand?"
Both Zhao Feixiong and Wang Can are capable people.
This is exactly what Lin Feng is willing to elaborate on. He explained carefully, Wang Can and Zhao Feixiong had a clearer understanding and were able to consider the overall situation.
This is the purpose of training generals.
Wang Can suddenly realized it and said respectfully: "I understand what the commander-in-chief has said. The war between Qin and Qi is not a short-term matter, but a long-term confrontation. If we can further disrupt Qi, it will be a big blow to us, Qin." It is said that the overall situation is more beneficial. Therefore, it is better for Tian He to be alive. It is a pity that the emperor died, but Zhongliang was left behind. Is this why the commander-in-chief feels regretful? "
"That's the truth."
Lin Feng looked approvingly.
Zhao Feixiong said seriously: "The general has understood the commander's analysis. It's a pity that Tian He was not captured alive."
Lin Feng said: "Now that things have come to this, there's not much to say. After all, how can everything be as perfect as one wishes? It's great to have reached this point."
Wang Can said: "Commander, what should we do now? We won again this time, but our own military strength has also been further weakened. It is already very difficult to enter the territory of Qi. Unless we wantonly rob the people of Qi of supplies, Only then can we fight all the way through.”
Lin Feng shook his head and said solemnly: "We cannot rob the people of Qi State, because the future Qi State will also be the territory of Qin State. If we want to invade Qi State, we must be an army of justice and gain the support of the people of Qi State. .”
"The reason why it was so easy to destroy Xia Kingdom was because people's hearts were with me."
"So we can't lose people's hearts."
"Our enemy has never been the people of Qi. What we want to destroy are the aristocratic families and many nobles of Qi. These are the people we want to destroy. Furthermore, the war with Qi will not end overnight. , so we are on hold for the time being.”
"The army stabilizes the situation and strengthens our strength."
"In addition, the emperor of Qi State has died, but if Qi State wants to calm our anger, it must make arrangements. I will send a letter to the prince and ask the prince to arrange for people from Heibingtai to spread the news of this battle to everyone in Linzi You know, this battle was not ours to attack on our own initiative, it was still the Emperor of Qi who attacked us without authorization."
Lin Feng talked eloquently and said: "This time the war happened because Qi Emperor Tian He broke the contract on his own. Tian He is responsible for all the responsibilities."
"The handsome man is wise."
Wang Can and Zhao Feixiong answered in unison.
Lin Feng said: "Everyone, please go down. I will write a letter immediately and send the news back first, so that the prince can make arrangements."
"Here!"
Wang Can and Zhao Feixiong bowed and retreated.
After the two left, Lin Feng quickly wrote a battle report to explain the general situation of the battle. In addition, behind the letter, Lin Feng asked Ying Yuqian to arrange for people from Heibingtai to spread the news in Linzi. After all, Lin Feng didn't have a contact person from Heibingtai, so he needed Ying Yuqian to arrange all this.
