"Order: The Jiepai leader's defenders, the Guanglang City defenders, the Danshui East and West Barriers, and the Kongcang leader's first-line defenders, totaling 50,000 troops, quickly leave the city and move closer to our central army to attack the Wei army that is flanking our army. The *** team carries out counter-siege!"
"No!" A messenger took the order and turned around to leave.
"Wu'an Jun Rongzhen, if all the troops in these four places are exhausted, and if the Wei army sends out a partial force to capture it, our army will be surrounded on all sides!" Sima Cuo asked worriedly.
Bai Qi was not ignorant of this, but the strength of the Wei army forced him to mobilize enough combat power to extinguish the flames of anti-Qin in one fell swoop. Otherwise, once the war became intense, other countries would inevitably want to get involved again. That's really troublesome.
Of course, Bai Qi also had something in mind regarding Sima Cuo's worries.
Bai Qi immediately waved his hand and said: "Since the Battle of Yique, the military strength of the Wei army has been greatly reduced. The loss of Hedong and Hanoi counties has also taken away its important grain-producing areas, greatly weakening its war potential. . Now, the Battle of Yique has only been a few years, and even if the King of Wei goes to war, he only has tens of thousands of soldiers."
"Judging from the current intelligence, the Wei army that appeared in the south numbered at least 112,000, and it is impossible for Wei to leave some troops. Therefore, these 1120,000 troops are already the entire Wei expeditionary force. ." Bai Qi continued patiently: "If you want to completely blockade all sides, you have to have an army of one hundred thousand. The Wei army obviously does not have this strength. If it dares to divide its troops to attack my pass, it is exactly what it wants. To divide its troops to attack the pass means that we The enemy on the front of the army has been reduced. Once the main force on the front is surrounded and annihilated by our army, the few remaining soldiers in the pass can be easily destroyed."
When the generals heard this, they all nodded silently.
It has to be said that even in such a critical time, Bai Qi still maintained an absolutely calm mind and analyzed the situation of Wei Jun and Wei State very thoroughly. Unfortunately, Bai Qi forgot about Zhao Jun. Of course, in Bai Qi's eyes, Zhao Jun's main force has been surrounded, so there is no need to worry about calculations.
Seeing that no one had any objections, Bai Qi immediately turned around and looked at the generals under his command. Just as he was about to click "Ying Xie", he suddenly realized that the tall and young figure was no longer there. Bai Qi's heart suddenly Another pain. If we say the biggest loss in this battle, perhaps it was the death of Ying Xi.
After a brief scan, there were many powerful generals in the tent, but those who had both qualifications and ability to take charge of their own affairs, it seemed that only Sima Cuo with gray hair on his temples was the only one.
Seeing Sima Cuo, who was over fifty and showing signs of decline, Bai Qi hesitated for a moment: Do he really want him to fight this life-and-death battle? Just in case... You must know that this battle is a real defensive battle. A defensive battle with less and more, and even the possibility of being assassinated by Zhao Jun.
Even though Tu Baiqi had a heart as solid as stone, he still felt a little hesitant in his heart when facing his old friend who had fought alongside him for more than ten years. Of course, this may also be because Ying Shou died in the battle the day before yesterday.
Bai Qi's eyes were naturally misunderstood by Sima who made the move. Faced with the current situation and the arrangements he had just made, Sima Cuo certainly understood the key point - to withstand the Wei army's one-day attack and gain time for the arrival of reinforcements and the encirclement of the army.
Sima Cuo knew very well: Wang Lu was now in the north, cutting off the connection between Changping Pass and the Shangdang battlefield, and could not leave; Bai Qi himself needed to guard the central army and could not leave; then there was only one person left who could stop the Wei army. That's why Sima wronged himself.
Sima Cuo smiled slightly and nodded slightly towards Bai Qi.
Looking into each other's eyes, nothing can be said.
"Sima is wrong!" Bai Qi forced himself to suppress the unbearable feeling in his heart and said.
"The general is here!" Sima Cuo immediately replied without any hesitation, clasping his fists.
"Now our army has been fighting fiercely for a long time, and its combat strength is at a critical level. It will take time for the armies from all over the world to arrive. There are remnants of Zhao's troops inside, and there are powerful enemy Wei troops surrounding them outside. This is the autumn of life and death." Bai Qi sighed softly, Said slowly.
These words were obviously not spoken by Geng Sima Cuo, because with Sima Cuo's ability, there was no need for so many words. The reason why I said this was actually to take the opportunity of giving Sima Cuo the opportunity to explain the current situation and his response to the generals of the Qin army.

Of course, Ma Cuo also understood Bai Qi's thoughts, and immediately stood on the spot with clasped fists and listened quietly to Bai Qi's orders.
"I just ordered the Qin army from the Jiepai leader, Guanglang City, Danshui Barrier, and Kongcang leader to come for reinforcements. In this way, we have formed a counter-encirclement against the Wei army!" Bai Qi pointed to the map and made a plan for encirclement. gesture.
"On this premise, we need to use the southeastern army to block the Wei army's attack. When my troops stationed on the periphery arrive, we can annihilate the Zhao and Wei armies in one fell swoop." Bai Qi pointed to the southeast corner where the Wei army appeared and continued: "This is The general beside him is the only one who can control the army in the southeast and save the sky from falling. General, how can you fight?"
"The general will definitely live up to his command! Within twelve hours, we will defend the southeastern corner of the army." Hearing this, Sima Cuo nodded, clasped his fists with both hands and issued a military order to Bai Qi.
This military order was not given to Bai Qi, but to the generals present and the Qin army. Facing the incoming Wei army, even Bai Qi was a little dazed, not to mention the Qin soldiers below.
In the following battle, whether it is to withstand the Wei army's attack or to finally encircle the Wei army, the most important thing is to rebuild the confidence of the Qin army. And this military order from Sima Cuo is telling the Qin army: No problem, hold on, we can win!
Bai Qi stepped forward and grabbed Sima Cuo's arm, sighed deeply and said, "I'll leave everything to General!"
Sima Cuo, however, looked relaxed and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, the Wei army's three melons and two dates are too young to break through the Qin army's formation."
"The general must not underestimate the enemy." Bai Qifu warned again, and then continued: "There are still two hundred elite soldiers of the Qin army given by the king. They will be handed over to the general together with the general's two thousand personal soldiers. They must be handed over to the general. Stay alive and hold the position."
As he spoke, the hand holding Sima Qiao's arm became tighter and tighter.
"Yes!" Sima Cuo finally suppressed the smile on his face and said to Bai Qi seriously.
Sima Cuo has never thought of underestimating the enemy, never! All the relaxation and calmness were deliberately pretended by him, and the purpose was naturally to give comfort and confidence to the Qin army generals present. Deep in his heart, of course he understood how heavy his burden was and how great the danger he would face.
Whether the Qin army with nearly 300,000 troops can turn defeat into victory depends entirely on whether it can withstand the menacing Wei army for 24 hours.
