"Since the Qin State has spent all its efforts to replace General Lian Po in the future, it is nothing more than asking this general to lead an army to destroy himself!" Zhao Kuo's mouth twitched slightly,

As he said that, he pushed the baton gently, and the flag representing the Zhao army "stationed" on Hanwang Mountain rushed towards the west bank of Danshui with the momentum of a tiger descending from the mountain.

"Then it will be as they wish!" Zhao Kuo said coldly while pushing his troops: "I will use a large army to attack the barrier on the west bank of Danshui. In order to seduce our army, and to make room for their follow-up troops to fight. No matter what, even if the Qin army resists, they will definitely pretend to be caught off guard, abandon the barrier, and slowly withdraw..."

"Immediately afterwards, we still followed what the Qin army thought, crossed the Dan River and headed west, making a strong effort to defeat the Qin army." Zhao Kuo continued his performance.

The three people on the side all frowned deeply. Everyone knew that this elixir was easy to cross and difficult to return. If attacking the barrier was still acceptable, then crossing the elixir would almost cost the lives of hundreds of thousands of Zhao soldiers to the Qin Dynasty. Under the sword of the army, even Xu Li, who was not a famous general, knew the danger.

How could Zhao Kuo not know the danger involved?

Three points are crucial to Zhao Jun’s failure in history:

First, he underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly. Although the Qin army easily tore through the barrier on the west bank of Danshui, it was blocked by the second barrier built by the Qin army with Guanglang City as the fulcrum;

Secondly, the Qin army easily broke through the front lines of Guguan and Changpingguan, which were the fulcrums in its rear, resulting in absolute passivity strategically;

Third, the separation of the main force and the baggage troops resulted in the army being unable to hold on. This was an absolute tactical mistake.

Among them, the third point is the best to solve. If you want to solve it completely, mixing is a very good method. Of course, its effect is almost non-existent. The basic situation of the enemy being strong and we being weak is difficult to reverse. The best result is nothing more than It's just a slight delay in being divided and surrounded by the Qin army.

But the two points that are crucial to the front and can really change the situation of the battle cannot be solved.

The defense system from Changping Pass to Gu Pass was originally the third line of defense deployed by General Lian Po. It was Zhao's last bottom line when the Danshui Barrier could not be held.

If the entire army moves back, strengthening the defenses from Changping Pass to Gu Pass will only move the confrontation back.

And if he leads a partial division with Tian Dan to guard the line from Changping Pass to Guguan, and leads a large army to storm Danshui, of course Zhao Kuo absolutely believes that General Tian Dan's ability will not cause the Bailishi Great Wall defense line to fall.

His own retreat is considered safe, but in this case, the best result is that he is unable to break through, and the Qin army is unable to break through. Each loses some troops, and they all return to the starting point - the confrontation in Danshui.

This result is still the best result, although neither Zhao Kuo nor Zhao Guo can accept such a result. What's even more terrible is that because Tian Dan was guarding the Hundred-mile Stone Great Wall, the Qin army must have known that it was difficult to break through, and they were bound to change their formation accordingly.

You know: the general on the opposite side is Bai Qi, and adapting to the enemy's conditions is Bai Qi's strength!

Therefore, if you want to truly get out of the quagmire of Changping battlefield, you must first wake up from the illusion of peaceful departure formulated by King Zhao.

Only by beating the Qin army badly can he and his Zhao army have a chance to return home safely.

Once the Qin army changes its formation, it means that the greatest advantage of a time traveler - foresight - has completely disappeared. Just relying on Zhao Kuo's "paper talking" skills that he inherited, coupled with the so-called 21st century knowledge, he wants to test his brains with the leader of the four generals of the Warring States Period?

Obviously, he didn’t even know how he died.

Therefore, in order to retain his only little advantage, Zhao Kuo must continue according to the historical process as much as possible: attack with the entire army, and then be besieged by the Qin army! Until the last moment, your trump card cannot be revealed!

Therefore, Zhao Kuo knew the Qin army's plan to lure the enemy deeper, so he had to make such a decision.

If such a plan had been narrated by another person, the two old generals would have been angry. However, out of respect for Zhao Kuo's previous performance, neither Lian Po nor Tian Dan had any intention of interrupting Zhao Kuo.

However, Zhao Kuo's "crazy words" did not end there.

Round, round and round...

Zhao Kuo repeatedly circled around the small sand table. The long stick in his hand was like a dragonfly touching water, tapping it up and down on the sand table. From time to time, he leaned down to change the position of the flag representing the military strength. .

Amidst the endless words, the situation on the sand table has changed drastically. The originally staggered and evenly matched battlefield situation has gradually become one-sided: a large red battle flag representing the Zhao army has been replaced by circles of black ones. The flag was tightly trapped in the narrow strip of land surrounded by Light Wolf City, the Danshui West Bank Barrier and the Boundary Card Leader.

That's right, Zhao Kuo changed the place where he was surrounded from the triangle area of ​​more than 50 kilometers surrounded by Xuushi, Changpingguan, and Guguan on the east bank of Danshui to the territory on the west bank of Danshui.

The reason is also very simple. It is not because although this land is long and narrow, it is much flatter than the terrain on the east coast. It is obviously more suitable for his cavalry to gallop and can better fight against the Qin army.

On the contrary, the purpose of choosing this place is precisely to let the Qin army surround itself better.

Changping Pass and Gu Pass were the final guarantee, and Zhao Kuo was not prepared to take risks with them. Even if his plan fails, as long as the Bailishi Great Wall defense line is still there, he can at least buy some time for the Handan defense war. Therefore, it is inevitable that General Tian Dan will be stationed here.

Now that General Tian Dan is stationed, it is almost impossible for the Qin army to break through. In order for the Qin army to better complete the encirclement, it is almost impossible to go to the east bank, but there is much to be done on the west bank. Guanglang City, Jiepai Lingdu is under the control of the Qin army, which means that as long as the Qin army reoccupies the west bank barrier, it will be impossible to escape.

After hearing this, he looked at the main force of the Zhao army that was tightly besieged, and then looked at the sporadic Zhao troops far away in Changping, Guguan and Daliang Mountain, as well as the Qin army that surrounded him in circles. The faces of Lian Po and General Tian Dan have turned red: Is the person in front of me the general of Zhao State? Why is he more like a general of Qin?

Almost every step fell into the Qin army's plan perfectly. The army entered lightly, but the food and fodder failed to keep up, and there was no follow-up response. Is this what a qualified general should do?

Just when the two of them were about to break out, the turning point finally came.
