The guard stood on the tower and watched, and then said: "General Han Yuan is the most powerful general in Korea." Then he faced the soldiers behind him and said: "You all must cheer up and guard Yiyang. Soon the army will be full of food." Send them to Yiyang." These soldiers stood up, bows and arrows drawn, waiting for the Qin army to attack the city.
After General Han Yuan broke out of the heavy siege, he only saw a Qin soldier shooting a hidden arrow. General Han Yuan was hit by an arrow in his vest, lying on his horse and running towards Xinzheng, the capital of South Korea. General Qin faced these Qin soldiers and scolded them, saying: "Which of you fired the arrow? Who fired the arrow?" The soldiers lowered their heads and took a few steps back. A soldier stood under the Qin general's chariot with a bow in hand. General Qin stepped off the chariot and shouted, "Why did you shoot the arrow?" He raised the soldier with one hand and said, "Why did you shoot the arrow? Tell me, tell me." The soldier was so frightened that he fell silent. The general threw the soldier several feet away, and General Qin spun around in anger. He turned around and said, "Hidden arrows hurt insects. If I really capture Yiyang, how will I convince the people? Do you understand?" The military advisor walked out. "It was the secret arrow that I asked him to shoot." General Qin looked at the military advisor and said, "Commander, alas!" General Qin walked out and sat on the stone beside him. The military advisor came up and said comfortingly: "The enemy general just broke out of the siege set by the general. I must give him a gift." General Qin looked at the military advisor again and sighed again, and said: "Army advisor, alas! It’s because the last general’s skills are inferior to those of insects. The last general is willing to admit defeat, and he must lose in an upright manner, unlike the military advisor who uses despicable methods.” The military advisor sat aside, patted General Qin’s shoulder, and said with a smile: “General, don’t be angry. , the general is aboveboard, I am despicable, but I want to tell the general, there is no justice and evil in unjust wars in the Spring and Autumn Period. I often read military books and realize that there is only one word in the whole text, that is deceit. Sun Tzu has stated it in the beginning of The Art of War "Soldiers, the trick is to defeat your enemy country by any means necessary. This is war, do you understand?" General Qin looked at the military advisor and just nodded silently. The military advisor stood up and said, "Okay, let's go back to the camp together."
General Zheng Ming was tied up and taken into Wu'anjun's military tent. Lord Wu An sat on the commander's seat and said: "In front of the tent is General Zheng Ming." Zheng Ming raised his head and said: "This general has fallen into your hands. If you want to kill him, kill him without saying anything." Lord Wu An said with a smile. : "I will not kill the general, but persuade him to abandon the dark side and surrender to the bright side. Our Qin State has a strong army, and it will be a matter of time to destroy your country, Korea. Why does the general need to be the minister of the country's subjugation anymore?" General Zheng Ming said: "If the general persuades you to surrender, Please don't be disrespectful. If the general leads a large army to attack our country, Korea, although our country is small, will use the strength of the whole country to fight against the powerful Qin army to the end. If you don't believe it, come on, come on." General Zheng Ming said this very seriously It's excitement, rush forward. The generals drew their swords and pointed out the obstacles they had come forward to block. Lord Wu An looked to the left and right and said: "You all retreat." The generals on the left and right just retreated and sat on both sides. Wu Anjun said: "I have seen the general's bravery. I know you want to use this move to anger me. If I don't kill you, you can leave." General Zheng Ming looked at Wu Anjun and said: "General, really Don't kill me." Jun Wu An said: "There is a saying that goes like this, if the two countries are at war and don't kill the envoys, not only will I not kill you, but I will send troops to send you back." Jun Wu An looked at a general next to him and said : "General Wang Cuo, please send General Zheng Ming back to the city." General Wang Cuo stepped forward and persuaded: "Jun Wu An, you are letting the tiger return to the mountain." Jun Wu An waved his hand and said: "Let it go back." General Wang Cuo said He turned around and said reluctantly: "General Zheng Ming, please." General Zheng Ming looked at Mr. Wu An, bowed and saluted, and said: "General, I will leave then." Mr. Wu An immediately stood up and walked down, saying: " General, please stay." General Zheng Ming said: "General, I regret it." Wu Anjun said: "Your general is Duan Cheng from Linfen. I know that he is a veteran on the battlefield. He is experienced and cautious in using troops. This time he sent You three generals went out of the city to break out. Based on this, we can infer that the city has been without food for many days. General Duan Cheng is only at the end of his life if he continues to defend like this. Your king of Han must be waiting for Zhao, Wei, and Chu to come to rescue him. Let me tell you the truth, the Zhongshan State is attacking Taiyuan, an important town in the north of Zhao State. How can it send troops to aid Korea if it is too busy to take care of itself? The King of Wei is also cunning and smooth, and will not send troops alone to cause trouble. The Chu State is far away from the Central Plains. The country is far away, and the Chu army has come all the way to capture the enemy. The army is exhausted and the gain is not worth the loss. Our army will soon arrive at Xinzheng, the capital of South Korea. You can take care of yourself." After hearing this, General Zheng Ming remained calm and walked out of the Qin army camp.
The military advisor stepped forward and said, "Master Wu An, General Zheng Ming is a fierce general in South Korea! Lord Wu An was not too hasty in letting him go." Master Wu An said, "Master Wu An, what you said is wrong. If you kill him here, Zheng Ming, then General Duan Cheng will think that he died bravely and righteously, so as to encourage the soldiers defending the city to defend Yiyang. Even if it is delayed, our army will be defeated. If General Zheng Ming is released and returned to the city, Duan Cheng He was suspicious and jealous by nature, so he thought that it must be surrendering to Qin, so he was on guard against it. Zheng Ming was not reused in the army, and he had to surrender even if he did not surrender. He had such fierce generals to attack Yiyang and South Korea. It's not like adding wings to a tiger." After hearing this, the military advisor praised: "Wu An Jun's plan is brilliant!" Wu An Jun said with a smile: "This is called knowing yourself and the enemy and you can fight a hundred battles without danger." His laughter spread outside the tent.
General Wang Cuo and General Zheng Ming rode in a chariot and arrived at the gate of Yiyang City. General Wang Cuo turned his back to him and did not want to talk to him. Zheng Ming looked at General Wang Cuo and got out of the car. General Wang Cuo turned around and said, "When I enter the city, I will take down the heads of these dogs." General Zheng Ming said, "Come if you want. I, Zheng Ming, will accompany you to the end at any time." General Wang Cuo drove away.
General Zheng Ming stood under the city gate and shouted upward: "Please open the city gate." The soldiers on the city shouted: "What insects are under the city?" General Zheng Ming said: "I am Han General Zheng Ming." The soldiers immediately He ran down and ran directly into General Duan Cheng's mansion, kowtowed and said, "General, General Zheng Ming is back." General Duan Cheng stood up and said, "Hurry up and open the city gate to welcome the return of the general." Put it on. He took off his armor and battle robe, took off the long sword from the sword stand, hung it on his waist, and went out of the city to greet him with the other generals. General Duan Cheng came out of the city with other generals and called out: "General Zheng Ming." General Zheng Ming ran forward, knelt down and looked up at him, saying: "General." General Duan Cheng immediately helped General Zheng Ming up and said: " Thank you for your hard work, General, let’s go into the city first to talk.”
They entered the city together and entered the general's mansion. General Duan Cheng looked at General Zheng Ming hesitantly and said: "Isn't the general captured by the Qin army? Why did he come back again?" General Zheng Ming first looked at the generals, and it could be seen from their eyes that Tai So many questions. Facing these generals, facing General Duan Cheng, he said: "The general is suspecting that the last general has surrendered to Qin. This time he entered the city for the Qin army to spy on the military situation of our Yiyang army. General, but like this Right." The generals around said: "This is what the general said himself. We don't think so." General Zheng Ming stood up and walked out, saying: "If the general does not trust the general, he can take the general and kill him in front of the army. Sacrifice the flag." General Duan Cheng then said: "This is a alienation plan of the Qin army. General Zheng Ming is loyal to our country, how could I, Duan Cheng, fall into this treacherous trick?" General Zheng Ming came forward and knelt down and said : "General Xie can still trust the general." General Duan Cheng said: "I think the general is tired. Let's go back to the camp to rest." General Zheng Ming said: "Then the general will retire." Then he exited the general's mansion. . Duan Cheng was expected to say to the generals around him: "You should also step back." These generals exited the general's mansion together. They talked to each other when they walked out, and they were still very prejudiced against General Zheng Ming.
Duan Cheng called in a few soldiers and said, "You must monitor General Zheng Ming day and night, and never relax. If there is any change, you can report it to the general at any time." Several soldiers kowtowed and said: "I'll wait for my order." Duan Cheng said, "Okay, you all, please stand down." It seems that Duan Cheng doesn't trust Zheng Ming that much.
General Han Yuan was injured by an arrow. He lay on his horse and rushed to Xinzheng, the capital of South Korea. He stood at the foot of the city, looked up at the city tower, and shouted with all his strength: "Yiyang is in urgent need, please open the city gate." Then from the horse It fell down. The city gate opens. The soldiers ran out of the city gate and said, "This is General Han Yuan." Han Yuan lay on a single frame and was carried into the Han Palace. Han Yuan stood up and answered. King Han said with concern: "The general is wounded by an arrow. Lie down and answer." Han Yuan said: "Thank you, Your Majesty." Then he said: "Qin soldiers besieged Yiyang. Yiyang has been without food for several months. Yiyang is in danger. ." King Han said: "I know, General, go down and recuperate." He ordered his soldiers to carry General Han Yuan down. Facing the ministers standing in the court hall, he said: "Qin soldiers are besieging Yiyang. What can you do to repel the Qin soldiers in Yiyang?" A minister stood up and said: "Qin is powerful, and the army invades Yiyang. . Your Majesty, you should negotiate for peace. The reason why Qin State sent troops this time is to join the alliance of Zhao, Wei, and Chu. Only by negotiating peace with Qin State can we protect Yiyang, Your Majesty." Another minister stood up and said: "Qin State is The country of tigers and wolves cannot be trusted." He then turned to the minister and said, "Our soldiers fought bloody battles with the Qin soldiers in Yiyang, but you are thinking about negotiating peace with Qin, not to mention how chilling the soldiers in front are." King Han He asked again: "You must have a good plan in your heart." The minister said: "I am willing to send an envoy to Wei and Zhao to jointly attack Qin." King Han said: "Okay, I will follow your words and send an envoy to Wei Go with the Kingdom of Zhao." The minister added: "Your Majesty, Yiyang has been without food for several months. Please ask your Majesty to allocate food and transport it to Yiyang, and send reinforcements to Yiyang to coordinate the battle." King Han said: " Okay." He then faced the main hall and said, "Where is the internal historian?" The internal historian stood up and said, "Your Majesty." King Han said, "Quickly allocate 10,000 shi of money and food to be transported to Yiyang, and another 200,000 troops will be sent. Go to Yiyang to help in the war." The internal historian knelt down and looked up at the court, saying: "I accept the decree." Then he exited the Han palace. The minister rushed out of Xinzheng in a boxcar and headed for Daliang, the capital of Wei.
At the Qin Army's camp outside Yiyang City, the military advisor entered the military tent and said, "Master Wu An, Lord Wu An, great things happen, great things happen." Lord Wu An looked at the military advisor and said, "Military advisor, let's see what great things happen. You'll be happy." The military advisor said, "I have a detailed report. There is a large army transporting grain from Xinzheng." Lord Wu An asked, "How many are there in the army?" The military advisor replied, "An army of two hundred thousand." Lord Wu An said: "This is really great. Our army is short of soldiers and food, so the King of Han sent us troops and food." Then he walked down and called out of the tent: "Where is General Wang Cuo?" General Wang Cuo entered and said: "Wu'an Lord." Lord Wu An said: "You lead my five hundred thousand elite soldiers to rob the official road leading to Yiyang." General Wang Cuo knelt down and said, "I will accept the order at the end." General Wang Cuo withdrew from the camp. Then Wu Anjun said again: "Let's prepare to rescue General Zheng Ming." The military advisor asked with some confusion: "Wu Anjun, why is this?" Wu Anjun walked to the entrance of the camp, turned around, faced the military advisor and said, "This time To rob the grain, Duan Cheng will definitely doubt Zheng Ming and capture him. Zheng Ming is a general of South Korea and was promoted by the King of Han. He dare not handle it privately. He will definitely send a large army to escort Zheng Ming to Xinzheng and ask the King of Han to make a decision."
