"Could it be that His Majesty let Pang Hui go out just to use him as bait?" Wei Guan twirled his beard and smiled.

"I'm not as far-reaching as you think, but the key to this battle is undoubtedly Pang Hui!"

"I believe that Your Majesty should not be limited to Hedong."

"Oh? It seems that Boyu and I want to go together!"

Wei Guan is indeed an expert in conspiracy.

Yang Zheng only took the first step, and he could tell the next few steps at a glance.

In fact, Yang Zheng himself didn't think clearly about the next few steps, but Wei Guan seemed to have already figured it out.

"Your Majesty, what are you talking about?" Liu Heng opened his eyes wide and looked confused.

"Did Renyou see it?" Yang Zheng turned to Pang Qing.

Pang Qing was startled, but quickly figured it out.

His qualifications were not bad at first, but he had not put them to use in the past few years.

With high positions and powerful positions, people's psychology will inevitably change.

"I know a thing or two."

"Very good, I will give you five thousand elites. Cooperate with Meng Guan and see the right time!" Yang Zheng stared at Pang Qing and said.

If he stayed by his side, all his intelligence and wisdom would be spent trying to figure out people's minds, so it would be better to let him out and put them to use.

"I accept your order!" Pang Qing held his hand.

Liu Heng, a monk with two feet in length, was still confused.

The army stayed overnight in Zheng County, and Pang Qing led the army away that night.

Just when Yang Zheng was raising his troops, Chen Qian had already led 60,000 elite Chinese troops to march westward to Hu County.

Of course, Sima Yan would not let go of such a good opportunity to mix water, and took the opportunity to squeeze Sima Nian and Sima Wei in.

Sima Yan himself led 110,000 Chinese troops out of Luoyang and stationed in Hongnong to observe the battlefield situation.

Twenty thousand Youzhou Cavalrymen are also on their way.

Half a year after the Battle of Hefei, the Jin army had not fully recovered, the plague had not yet been eradicated, and there were many sick and wounded in the Chinese army.

Sima Yan recruited young men from Si, Yan, and Henan provinces to form this 110,000-strong army.

Including the border troops from Shangdang, Hedong, Hongnong and Nanyang counties, the Jin army participated in this battle with nearly 270,000 troops.

Jia Chong read the secret report from the west, "There are 80,000 thieves in the army, soldiers from Linjin, Huayin and other places, 50,000 righteous soldiers, and more than 40,000 in Jiehu, Xianbei, and Xiongnu death camps..."

The secret report was very detailed, including a very detailed analysis of the Qin army's generals, troop allocation, and the main force of each battalion.

But every time he read out a number, Sima Yan's face trembled slightly.

Back then, Sima Zhao's tens of thousands of elites failed to capture 50,000 Qin thieves. Now that the bandit army has expanded to 170,000, Sima Yan felt even more unsure.

The courage I mustered up a few days ago is now a little loose.

"General Chariot and Cavalry advises us to take advantage of the Yang bandit's main force to fall into the east of the river, lead the elite troops to attack Chang'an, exchange the east of the river for Guanzhong, and cut off its foundation!" He Shao cupped his hands and said.

Sima Yan frowned, Chen Qian was really ruthless, trading Hedong for Guanzhong.

But only in this way can the foundation of Qin be shaken.

"Yes!" Sima Yan nodded in agreement.

This was the original strategy.

Even if this war cannot be won, Guanzhong will be turned into scorched earth!

Jia Chong said: "General Pang has a strategy to lure the enemy."

"Oh? Tell me quickly." Sima Yan was greatly moved.

To be precise, Chen Qian was just a partial teacher.

Wouldn't it be better if we could defeat the main force of the Qin army?

"General Pang suggested abandoning Puban, letting the Yang thieves enter Hedong, and luring them to the Anyi Salt Pond. Then, heavy troops would come out from Tongguan, cut off the Yellow River, trap the Yang thieves in the Hedong Basin, and ambush them from all sides. The Qin thieves could have the power they have today.

, all because of Yang Thief, if we can capture and kill this beast, the world will be in ruins!" Jia Chong's eyes rolled around.

It's May today and the Yellow River is full of water.

Tongguan is at the forefront of the battlefield. A large army is stationed at Fengling Ferry, which can cut off the water channels of Jiyang and Puban to the north, and can cut off the connection between Hedong and Hongnong to the east.

Anyi is located in the middle of the Hedong Basin and is the seat of Hedong County. It has Zhongtiao Mountain in the south, Gufeng Mountain and Jiwang Mountain in the north, Shangdang Highlands in the east, and Leishou Mountain in the west.

When the Qin army entered this place, it was equivalent to entering an urn.

What's even better is that in addition to blocking the Yellow River, there are also Fenshui, Sushui and other water networks that delay the Qin army's cavalry.

There are loess cliffs, gullies, and salt ponds scattered throughout the basin, which are natural ravines.

Pang Hui was considered an expert in fighting, but due to his family background, a simple warrior could not be reused in the Central Plains where there were many noble families.

"Shangdang has Liu Hong's cavalry, Hongnong has Wang Jun's navy, and Hedong has Tang Bin to guard it. I have an army of hundreds of thousands, which is enough to kill all the Yang thieves!" Sima Yan was quite moved.

The temptation to capture and kill Yang Zheng was too great.

Now Pang Hui is the internal response, and Sima Yan has laid a dragnet in Hedong.

"No, no, no, it's not enough!" Sima Yan walked back and forth in the tent, "An army of hundreds of thousands is not enough. Send me an edict to mobilize the people of Ji, Yan, Qing, Xu, and Luoyang to attack again." An army of 200,000 people will hunt east of the river, surround and kill the Yang thief, and complete their victory in one battle!"

"Your Majesty, wait a minute. With just a secret letter from Pang Hui, you will devote all the power of the country to the east of the river. This is not what a wise man would do! First, Pang Hui has been detained in the Qin State for many years and has become a general of the guard. He has a high and powerful position. His intentions are unknown. , Secondly, although this strategy is wonderful, there are capable people around Thief Yang. If he sees through this strategy, he will use it..." Jia Chong's triangle eyes flashed with a faint light.

Back then, he and Sima Zhao escaped from the iron heel of the Qin army.

So there is always a kind of fear in my heart.

Fear sometimes means caution. How could a war of this scale be won so easily?

Jia Chong's words also awakened Sima Yan. Pang Hui's reputation had never been very good.

At that time, he followed Cao Shuang, but later Cao Shuang was defeated in the Xuanluo Valley of Xiahou. Seeing that the Cao family was in trouble, he turned to the Sima family.

People like Sima Yan and Jia Chong, who were from noble families, looked down upon Pang Hui at all.

Although Pang Hui performed outstandingly in the battle against Zhuge Dan, he still did not receive their recognition.

"What Mr. Jia said is true. Your Majesty must not put all your efforts on it." Sima You also advised.

"I was reckless." Sima Yan put his hand on his forehead and was very happy.

Like Sima Zhao, Sima Yan's specialty is in political tactics and he is not very good at leading armies in battle.

However, the Central Plains is full of talents, and there is no need for an emperor like Sima Yan to charge into battle.

"In this case, what can be done? Do we have to fight the Qin thieves in Puban?" Sima Yan said.

"Let the Qin thieves enter Hedong!" The dim light in Jia Chong's triangle eyes came and went.

Sima Yan was puzzled, "Didn't Gonglu say that Pang Hui can't be trusted?"

"Pang Hui can't be trusted, but the battlefield that is most beneficial to our army is still in Anyi! It's possible to make a plan within a plan, and the Qin thieves cannot cross the Yellow River. How can the generals of chariots and cavalry sweep through Guanzhong?" Jia Chong's conspiracy level is also among the best in the world. .

When it comes to cruelty and ruthlessness, no one in the world can match him.

Even Emperor Cao Mao killed him when he told him to.

Since ancient times, very few regicides have survived. Jia Chong not only survived, but also succeeded in making the Jia family a first-class family.

"A plan within a plan, a plan within a plan?" Sima Yan was amazed, "So, the people of Ji, Yan, Qing, Xu, and Luoyang are still going to be conquered. Do I think I am falling into the plan?"
