Obviously, the intensity of Zhao Kuo's counterattack, or the intensity of the mutual attacks between Qin and Zhao, has not reached the level that Lord Xinling wanted. Therefore, Lord Xinling was ready to break his promise. However, facing Lord Xinling's almost rogue speech, Lian Po was quite helpless.
What can be done? Have a fight? Or give up and quit?
These are not things that a mature general should do, but can "presenting facts and reasoning" be able to wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep?
However, if you are unwilling to march now, then when will you have to wait?
Naturally, Lian Po could not agree to Lord Xinling's approach, but for a while he didn't know how to convince Lord Xinling. Both of them knew that Ming soldiers must be sent out, but one hoped to join the battlefield when the Zhao army suffered less losses, while the other hoped to join the battle when the battle between Qin and Zhao became more intense.
Neither side is wrong, they just have different positions.
Both sides wanted something from the other side. Needless to say, Lian Po asked the Wei army to rescue the siege. Although the Wei army also hoped that Lian Po would lead the Hanoi area, it was not as urgent as Lian Po's request for help. However, Lord Xinling came here to steal the talisman. If Lord Xinling's personal request was added, it would almost bring the two sides to the same plane.
As a result, mutual demands have turned into mutual fetters and restrictions. While no one is willing to let go, no one dares to completely fall out with the other.
This may be the so-called art of compromise.
Unfortunately, both sides have not been able to find a satisfactory combination for the time being.
So, in the Chinese army tent, Lord Xinling and Lian Po looked at each other across the map...
"Report!" A quick confirmation voice came from outside the tent.
Immediately afterwards, a Wei Jun scout in red broke into the confrontation between the two. His cold eyes instantly focused on the person coming. The scouts had never seen this formation before, and they hurriedly bowed down, trembling and not daring to speak.
"What's the matter?" The two asked almost in unison.
"Your Majesty, General: We are reporting from the front. Last night, the Zhao army ambushed the Qin army's cavalry reinforcements on the northern road. They burned the valley with fire and killed more than 15,000 of the enemy. In the fury of the Qin army, hundreds of thousands of them were killed. The army is coming out in full force to attack Zhao Jun from all sides." The scout quickly organized the message and reported it concisely.
"What?" The two of them said in surprise again, and then looked at each other again: "Fifteen thousand? Or cavalry?"
There are too many meanings in this glance.
Lord Xinling wished he could give himself a slap in the face at this moment. Not only was he disgusted with the fact that it took him a long time to defeat the two thousand Qin troops, but he didn't want him to turn around and slap him with the record of fifteen thousand cavalry. He slapped him hard in the face. Swelling.
But behind Lian Po's shock, there was a look of great comfort as expected. This was the Zhao Kuo he knew, the Zhao Kuo who made plans and then acted, and his actions were earth-shattering!
Then the two quickly focused their attention on the scout again. Details, they need more details! How did the Zhao army fight, and how did the Qin army respond? Because they suddenly discovered that this seemed to be the mutually satisfactory node that the two of them had been pursuing.
Upon hearing this, the scout hurriedly described the information discovered on the front line to Lord Xinling and Lian Po in detail.
In order to avoid being discovered by the Qin army, the information that the Wei army could detect was very limited, but this did not prevent Lian Po from imagining and supplementing all the information in series on his own. So soon, the Zhao army had a series of " The technique of "surrounding the point and calling for reinforcements" was probably in Lian Po's mind.
It is not easy to be keenly aware of the Qin army's weak points in the chaotic siege situation;
But resisting the temptation, resolutely giving up the benefits of breaking through this weakest point, and making the decision not to break it is even more difficult than what most people can do;
As for the tactics of using one weak point to attract the Qin army and mobilize the Qin army to create another weak point, it can only be described as unconstrained and brilliant. .
Compared with the above two points, the final valley to destroy the enemy is the most boring part. Although, this section contributes the most stunning visual effects.
Ask yourself, it is not difficult for Lian Po to realize that the Qin army's strength in the east is weak.
But if you have to decisively give up this weak point that can be overcome in one fell swoop, you will never be able to do it. As for using weak points as bait to artificially create weak points, Lian Po had never even thought about it.
Gently stroking the long beard under his chin, Lian Po suddenly felt that time is fleeting, time is hard to spare, and the country has a sense of talent.
The Lord Xinling on the opposite side obviously did not have such a deep understanding of Zhao Kuo's "encirclement and reinforcements" strategy, and naturally he had not yet realized the mystery. Compared with how the Qin army was missing, Lord Xinling was obviously more concerned about it. The Qin army's retaliatory actions.
Naturally, Lian Po would not give any warning. Lian Po did not want others to learn such tactics.
Immediately, the scouts were ordered to quickly explain the current actions of the Qin army.
The scout naturally knew everything and said: "Since the beginning of the Qin Dynasty, troops have been mobilized frequently. Troops were mobilized from east to west, south and north, with the east and north being the most important. Then the Qin Army's 300,000 troops came out in full force, divided from east to west. They are advancing in all directions from the west, south and north, with cavalry interspersed and infantry attacking the base, and are gradually advancing towards the Zhao army's home base."
As soon as the four words "come out in full force" came out, it was obvious that Lian Po and Lord Xinling's eyes lit up.
Sure enough, the Qin army launched a retaliatory attack - a comprehensive attack! Is there any better opportunity than this? Both Lian Po and Lord Xinling realized that now was the best time to intervene.
Gently waving his hand to signal the scouts to go down, Lord Xinling immediately looked at Lian Po. No more words were needed. The light in his eyes that could not be hidden had already explained all his thoughts, everything was silent.
"Send the order, gather the generals and raise the account!" Lian Po ordered without hesitation.
In order to hide and wait for orders, there was no sound of drum beating in the Wei camp, and they could only summon the soldiers one by one. Even so, the generals of the Wei army were not slow at all.
There is no other reason. Their swords are already hungry and thirsty.
Although they also knew that waiting for the Zhao army to fight with the Qin army for a while would greatly reduce their pressure, but their desire to make contributions and their feud with the Qin people made them want to go to the battlefield as soon as possible to kill the Qin people.
So I sharpen my blade day and night, only hating the long nights.
Now that I finally got the call, I naturally came at a high speed.
It was not yet dusk when the generals arrived at the tent. Inside the tent, Lian Po sat on the throne, while Lord Xinling sat on his right hand side to show respect.
After the generals had a brief greeting, the lights were lit, the curtains were lowered, and the military meeting officially began. Lord Xinling spoke first. And Lord Xinling was unambiguous. He stood up and spoke like Wang Zha!
"The time has come to send troops!"
