During the period of Emperor Gaozu, the world was initially settled.
Liu Bang once casually discussed the talents of various generals with Han Xin, and the two believed that they each had their own merits.
Liu Bang asked, "How many soldiers can I lead?"
Han Xin said bluntly, "Your Majesty can only lead one hundred thousand people."
Liu Bang said, "What about you?"
Han Xin replied, "For a general like me, the more troops he can lead, the better."
Liu Bang smiled and said, "The more soldiers you can command, the better. Then why did I catch you?"
Han Xin said, "Your Majesty is not good at leading troops, but he is good at commanding generals. This is why Han Xin and I were captured by your Majesty. Moreover, your Majesty's abilities are innate and cannot be achieved by people's efforts."
Liu Bang clapped his hands and laughed.
Han Xin used his troops, the more the better, this is the beauty of chemical engineering. Read the book
Having said that, the dialogue between Han Xin and Liu Bang actually makes a lot of sense.
When you become a centurion, you need to work for the food, drink and food of a hundred people; when you become a captain, you need to work for the future and food and drink of a thousand people; when you become a general, you need to work for the future of a thousand people. The troops of 20,000 people are running around to garrison, provide food and armaments; and when you become the governor and command an army of thousands of horses, in addition to considering basic conditions such as food, grass, supplies, and armaments, you also have to plan marches, garrisoning, and troop distribution. , offensive routes, offensive methods and a series of other matters, these are not qualifications that an ordinary general can master, let alone Liu Huai, who has never participated in the war to destroy the country and has commanded an army of 150,000.
Perhaps, Emperor Liu Yan did think that this was a war without any suspense.
But he forgot one sentence: victory or defeat can only happen in an instant.
...
The rain of arrows that blocked the clouds and the sun made it difficult to open one's eyes. The vigor of the Han army suppressed by the rain of arrows was completely eliminated, leaving only the power to parry.
Everyone understood that they were trapped in the encirclement of the Qin army. If they did not break out as soon as possible, the whole army would have only one fate today, and everyone would die.
At this time, Huan Wen took Wang Biaozhi and rushed to Liu Huai's side under the escort of Cheng Guo.
Huan Wen, who has entered the realm of pushing monuments, can't help but be outstanding in conspiracy, and he is also an extremely smart warrior. What is even more rare is that he has always maintained a loyal heart to the Han Empire and Liu Huai.
At this critical moment, Huan Wen realized what was right and what was wrong. He started from his heart and hurriedly knelt down and worshiped, "Great Commander-in-Chief, the enemy army is occupying a high place and condescendingly surrounded us in the valley. Our army has no advantage and can counterattack." Hopeless, very passive. For this plan, we can only wait for an opportunity to break out. And the direction of the breakout is no matter the front or rear. Moving forward, we can break through Daqin's pursuit in one fell swoop, forcefully enter the territory of Goguryeo, burn, kill, loot, and attack the city. Pull out the stronghold. Backwards, we can retreat to the territory of Bozhou, strengthen the walls and clear the fields, plan from a long-term perspective, and then decide on the big plan. I ask the governor to make a quick decision on who will advance and who will retreat. If it is a moment and a half late, I am afraid that the 150,000 troops will be wiped out. I want to be buried in this Gula."
Seeing the fourth master coming to offer advice, Liu Huai finally regained a third of his soul. He coughed a few times and straightened his body.
"Bring me a new pair of trousers for the Governor! Don't panic, generals. We will discuss this after I have finished changing."
Seeing that Liu Huai's crotch was wet, Huan Wen couldn't laugh or cry!
...
Between the rockery basins and pools, you can outline the potential of thousands of miles of mountains and rivers;
In just a few words, you can catch a glimpse of the heart of the eternal sages.
Thirty years later, under Liu Yi's instruction, Liu Huai's change of pants in battle was not included in the history of Han compiled by Xie Yun, which left Liu Huai with the last trace of dignity.
But it left a mark, and the old soldier who survived the battle told it as a joke throughout his life.
In later generations, a term called "pants-changing governor" was derived, which was used to describe people who still do things that take face into account and have nothing to do with the overall situation when life and death are at stake.
This idiom can be regarded as Liu Huai's contribution to Chinese culture!
...
Just when Liu Huai put on dry pants, a hail of arrows rained out from the Qin Dynasty. The third round of arrow rain took away the lives of many Han soldiers. The morale of the Qin army was greatly boosted and its momentum was like a rainbow.
Liu Huai, however, was "decided about his move" and was still changing his clothes slowly. Seeing that the generals were angry and dare not speak, Chen Buye almost slapped him, but luckily he was stopped by Li Changhong.
At this moment, three generals, Mo Jingchun, Mou Yu, and Sun Yun, also arrived in embarrassment. After listening to Huan Wen's advice, the three of them had different expressions.
Mo Jingchun, who always likes to use extraordinary troops, stared at his bright black eyes, raised his hands and said loudly, "Grand Governor, since ancient times, when using troops, we should avoid the flames of war in the homeland and burn the flames of war in the enemy's territory. In the end, the general will think that instead of retreating to Bozhou, we will retreat to Bozhou." To defend in danger, it is better to rush into Goguryeo with troops and capture the capital of Goguryeo in one fell swoop. Although our army was in danger of being outflanked by Qin in the early stage of the attack, our troops were not tired of deceit. At this time, Goguryeo was backed by the Qin army, so we would not have expected it. Our army dares to break through the encirclement and enter the country wantonly. The defense must be loose and slack. As long as we capture Wandu City, the capital of Goguryeo, our Han army soldiers will hold on to the city. When Your Majesty's reinforcements arrive again, the offensive and defensive forces will immediately change. By then, our army will attack the Qin army from front to back, and the Qin army will surely A great defeat, a reversal of the world, all in this.”
Sun Yun, Huan Wen, Wang Biaozhi, Chen Buye and others seconded the proposal, while veteran generals Mou Yu and Li Changhong expressed their opposition.
Liu Huai finally stopped being willful. When he saw that the generals agreed with the proposal, he immediately ordered them to act according to the plan without making any mistakes.
After the generals retreated, Liu Huai quietly moved towards Huan Wen, grabbed Huan Wen's sleeve, and asked, "Fourth Master, did Mo Jingchun just now steal the limelight from me?"
Huan Wen reluctantly gave Liu Huai a smile, speechless.
...
This time during the march in the snow ditch, according to the previous discussion among the generals of the Han army, General Xiangping Liu Qin was the vanguard, followed closely by Mo Jingchun's Taibai Army. The third army was Sun Yun's Wu Ci Army, and the Prince led the army. Huweiwei and Youdu Houwei were in the middle. Mou Yu ordered Wuning's army to follow the central army closely. The one behind was Houcheng General Liu Han. The armies were separated by five hundred steps from front to back to distinguish them. Report each other's military situation once a quarter of an hour to take care of each other.
Traveling through the long and obstructed snow valley, each row of soldiers has a limited number of soldiers. Although the 150,000-strong army still cannot respond from head to tail, in the eyes of the generals, this layout is already the most reasonable among the unreasonable.
After three rounds of arrow rain from the Qin army, the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty stopped shooting. Under the command of their respective generals, they loaded arrowheads slowly. The generals only thought that the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty were physically exhausted and did not pay attention.
This break just gave the Han army breathing space and opportunity to integrate their troops and mobilize their troops.
In less than half a moment, Mo Jingchun's troops reorganized their formation. As a vanguard general, he personally led Yibiao's headquarters and quickly rushed to Liu Qin's troops to convey Liu Huai's orders.
While speeding along, Mo Jingchun glanced around and squinted, only to see the Qin soldiers on the top of the mountains on both sides moving very slowly, unloading the crossbows, loading and unloading them again, obviously deliberately delaying time, as if they were waiting. What are you wearing? Read the book
However, the situation was so critical that Mo Jingchun had no time to think about it. He just galloped and arrived at Liu Qin's headquarters in a short time.
Mo Jingchun saw that Liu Qin's troops were waiting in formation, so he stopped his horse in front of the formation and shouted, "General Liu, come see me quickly!"
Between the dimensions, Liu Qin's soldiers spread out to both sides, and an opening was slowly revealed. Liu Qin, wearing heavy armor and riding a horse, was sitting motionless in the army. He was looking at Mo Jingchun with a hint of teasing in his eyes.
Mo Jingchun felt something strange, but he did not dare to delay and immediately led a group of people into the battle.
"General Liu, the Qin Dynasty is plundering the mountains to form a formation, attacking from two sides. Our army is in danger of destruction. The Governor has orders, hurry up... Ah! Liu Qin, you!"
Mo Jingchun rode his horse and stopped beside Liu Qin. Just as he was about to speak, Liu Qin suddenly got angry. Steel needles were inserted between the fingers of both hands and flew at Mo Jingchun's chest. Fortunately, Mo Jingchun got in. In the realm of immortality, he has the ability to shine in all directions. The moment Liu Qin took action, the sword was like lightning. He blocked it in time and dodged the fatal blow.
A series of doubts were connected together, and at this moment, Mo Jingchun finally realized it.
No wonder when I first met Liu Qin and Liu Han, I subconsciously felt a sense of déjà vu. It turned out that I and Liu Qin had fought against each other in the Lingyuan Mountains, but it was raining and windy that day, so I couldn't distinguish them clearly for a while. .
The appearance can change, but the martial arts method will not change. The steel needle in Liu Qin's hand is exactly the same as the steel needle that was driven into the sole of his foot that day.
The only thing that didn't match up was that the two people who assassinated him in the Lingyuan Mountains that night were in the city-breaking realm, and judging from Liu Qin's abilities, he must have entered the realm of objects.
From this point of view, the two of them are not the weaklings that the world calls them. Everything is just a cover-up.
Mo Jingchun's face was covered with a haze, and he asked questions knowingly, and said coldly, "Three years ago, it was you and Liu Han who attacked and killed me in the Lingyuan Mountains? When we were discussing the division of troops and deployment, you and Liu Han were arguing Are you rushing to be the vanguard and rear army for the purpose of encircling our Han army today?"
Liu Qin did not answer this question, but said with a smile, "We have changed our tune and followed the four princes of Qin to build a century-old legacy. After this is accomplished, the fourth prince will grant my brother the throne of King of Liaoxi and King of Liaodong. Do you want General Mo?" Let's join together and become the Red Pine King? Wouldn't it be great if three kings in one state could stand on their own? Haha!"
After solving the puzzle and enlightening, things finally came to light.
The two people Ling Xiao said could turn the tide of the war were the two precious sons of Liu Xun, Liu Han and Liu Qin. Due to their father's death, they had already begun to rebel against the Han Dynasty.
Now that Fu Wen has taken the initiative to exchange letters, everything is revealed without words!
"Damn it, you treasonous bitch! You actually have the nerve to talk to me! Today, I will cut you into pieces!"
Don't be alarmed when the spring energy rushes towards Niu Dou, shouts loudly, or when you are tempted, you raise your knife and gather your energy to kill.
A general accompanying Liu Qin suddenly came from the side with his sword in hand.
In a rage, Mo Jingchun fired his first sword, cutting off the enemy's sword, and then hit the enemy's chest. The attacker fell to the ground with the sword. I'm afraid he still can't figure out how he died in the underworld.
At this moment, Liu Qin had already galloped back to the main formation.
Mo Jingchun relied on his realm and was about to charge into the battle with his sword. Suddenly, there were bursts of wailing from behind, and Mo Jingchun suddenly woke up from his anger. Looking back, he saw that the confidants he had brought into the formation had been completely killed by Liu Qin's soldiers and horses.
Mo Jingchun was so angry that he wanted to rob the camp alone, but he had the important task of conveying the great changes and must not be willing to fight here. So he turned his horse's head and shouted sternly: "At that time, I betrayed my country and was willing to surrender to captivity and was reviled by others. "An'deliufang", he rode back alone along the way to deliver the news.
Liu Qin knew that he could not intercept him, so he did not force him to stay and allowed him to leave. Then he formed a defensive formation and waited to prevent other Han troops from charging into the formation.
Looking at the bloody Han army in the valley, satisfaction and viciousness flashed in Liu Qin's eyes.
I, the Liu brothers, have never forgotten the revenge of killing their father!
