Feng Jie looked at Bai Yan and asked curiously. At this moment, Feng Jie had countless doubts that could not be answered.
Backing up?
What is backing water? According to all the art of war I have ever read, it is said that when setting up a camp, the right side and back should be backed by the mountain, and the front and left side should be facing the water.
Is this backwater?
"General, do you still remember the terrain of Jingxing?"
Seemingly aware of Feng Jie's doubts, Bai Yan did not answer hastily, but asked instead.
Feng Jie nodded.
See the situation.
Bai Yan stood up from the wooden table, picked up the free tea cup next to him, walked to the center of the pavilion, and under Feng Jie's gaze, slowly poured the water in the cup onto the ground, forming an arc.
"If you want to conquer Jingxing, there is a river to control the water. This is a natural danger!"
Bai Yan waited for tea in the evening, knelt down on one knee, regarded the tea set as Zhao Jun, and placed it in the north.
Behind the two wooden tables on the other side, both Feng Jie and Master Xu were looking at Bai Yan.
As for Bai Yan.
Feng Jie had the most experience, because unlike Master Xu, as a general, he not only had a deep understanding of the importance of the terrain, he had even personally led the troops at Jingxing before Bai Yan left.
Therefore, he had seen the terrain of Jingxing with his own eyes.
The flood control river was a natural danger for the Zhao army, and it was also the most important reason why General Wang Jian did not dare to fight the decisive battle with the Zhao army.
"If his natural danger is used by our Qin army, it will form the power of our army."
After Bai Yan set the gap, he pointed at the water stains on the ground, then turned to look at Feng Jie: "How?"
Bai Yan's words completely confused Feng Jie.
Turn Zhao Jun's natural danger around to form our army's advantage?
"How to form the momentum of our army?"
Feng Jie asked.
In the pavilion, Bai Yan turned to look at the water stains on the ground. He didn't answer in a hurry, but smiled.
"The Art of War says: Throw it to death and then survive; put it to death and then survive!"
Bai Yan looked at the water stains on the ground, and the method of using the army by the "Soldier Immortals" of later generations once again came to mind. Facing hundreds of thousands of Zhao troops stationed at Jingxing, he only used tens of thousands of miscellaneous soldiers to defeat the Zhao army and capture Jingxing.
.
Master Xu on the side is a girl. In addition to her charming appearance and graceful figure, she also has a guzheng and unseen poison skills. She doesn't know much about military art, so she didn't hear Bai Yan's words.
However, Feng Jie was different.
Listening to Bai Yan's words, and thinking of the last-ditch battle ahead, the Jingxing terrain that he had seen came to mind.
Suddenly, a thought that made Feng Jie's body go cold appeared in his mind. Feng Jie slowly opened his eyes wide in an instant, full of fear.
"General Bai wants to cross the Zhide River, form an array with his back to the water, and face the Zhao army?"
Feng Jie looked at Bai Yan at this moment, and was so frightened by Bai Yan's idea that his face turned pale.
To know.
General Wang Jian did not dare to cross the flood control river at Jingxing in front of Zhao Jun.
Because that is undoubtedly a way to die!!
"Well, that's true!"
Bai Yan nodded when he heard Feng Jie's words and did not deny it.
How could Feng Jie sit still at this time? Feng Jie, who was much older than Bai Yan, stood up and quickly held his hands.
"Lieutenant General, this must not be done! Although in the art of war, it is true that you will survive after death, and you will survive after death, but your opponent is Li Mu. This move is too dangerous. If you are not careful, the entire army will be wiped out.
.”
At this moment, Feng Jie did not dare to call Bai Yan "General Bai" anymore. In desperation, he called him "Vice General".
Because in Feng Jie's eyes, Bai Yan's thoughts were like a fight to the death with Zhao Jun, and it was a narrow escape.
There's absolutely no need for that right now.
After all, everyone only has one life. If it is true to what Bai Yan said, if the war is defeated, let alone whether he can leave alive, even if he leaves alive, returning to Qin will be a death.
You will really be dead by then!
"So! Be careful."
Bai Yan looked at Feng Jie's words and was not surprised. Instead, he looked at the ground and frowned slightly.
Under Feng Jie's gaze.
Bai Yan looked at the ground, took the rest of the teacups, and placed them on the west side of the Zishui River, symbolizing General Wang Jian's army.
"Before sending out troops, we had to let General Wang Jian lead his troops back. After a while, we tentatively went to Jingxing three times, stopped thirty miles away from the Zhishui River, and returned the next day."
Bai Yan was playing with the wooden cup on the ground.
When Feng Jie saw this, he calmed down a little, seemed to feel something, and looked at Bai Yan.
"Before this, we must send agents to investigate the news among the Zhao army. Our army went to Jingxing for the fourth time and still stopped here."
Bai Yan fiddled with the wooden cup and said softly.
But this time, he reached out from another place and once again held a wooden cup. Under Feng Jie's gaze, he moved it along the water traces.
"But this time, in the middle of the night, our army can dispatch three thousand cavalry, go north along the Zhishui River in the middle of the night, and set up an ambush here. Our army will arrive at the Zhishui River again the next day."
Bai Yan used water marks as boundaries on the ground and set up an array with wooden cups.
Feng Jie's eyes lit up when he saw Bai Yan's plan.
Until then, Feng Jie suddenly felt that the last-ditch battle that Bai Yan had just mentioned was not really a reckless crossing of the river and a decisive battle with Zhao Jun.
Watching Bai Yan's plans one by one, Feng Jie became more and more aware of the strategizing behind it.
Behind another wooden table.
Although Master Xu didn't understand military formations, she could understand Bai Yan's words through Feng Jie's expression, which made General Feng Jie, who was resisting the excitement just now, seem to calm down.
Or.
General Feng Jie's eyes seemed to be somewhat moved.
Think of this.
Master Xu's eyes couldn't help but look at Bai Yan, who was kneeling on the ground on one knee and forming a formation with wooden cups. Each wooden cup seemed to be thousands of soldiers and horses, and the decisive battle between Qin and Zhao
, seems to be controlled by Bai Yan in this pavilion.
Every move, word and deed determines the war strategy, the life and death of tens of thousands of generals, and the victory or defeat of the two countries.
This is.
General?
Along with this thought, Master Xu saw Bai Yan take another wooden cup again.
Under the watchful eyes of Master Xu and Feng Jie.
Bai Yan took the first wooden cup and placed it east of the water mark.
"When we arrive at the flood control, let 10,000 troops cross the river and set up formation. I will lead the rear army to cross the river last. After crossing the river, the rear army will become the front army, and the front army will become the rear army. When Zhao Jun sees me crossing the river, he will definitely attack by force, and then each other's rear troops can
It serves as a buffer to offset the impact of Zhao’s army.”
After Bai Yan finished speaking, he put one hand on his knees while looking at the wooden cup on the ground, or the formation diagram.
"At that time, the enemy's natural danger is the strength of our army, which can defeat Zhao's army~!"
Bai Yan finished speaking.
Then I saw Feng Jie exclaiming "Wonderful"!
"In this way, those three thousand can completely raid the Zhao army's camp and join our Qin army!"
At this moment, Feng Jie looked at Bai Yan with excitement.
As the leading general, Feng Jie was an older man. At this time, he could naturally see the layout of Bai Yan's entire battlefield, and he could naturally appreciate that every plan was carefully considered.
As long as the three thousand cavalry detoured to the rear of the Zhao army and captured the Zhao army's camp, there would be countless ways to disrupt the morale of the Zhao army.
Inside the pavilion.
Feng Jie was breathing rapidly, looking at the wooden cups on the ground, shaking his head constantly, his expression becoming more and more excited.
In the end, Feng Jie couldn't help but offer his hand to Bai Yan with a serious look on his face.
"General, Feng Jie thinks that he can send a letter to General Wang Jian about this plan now, without waiting for the Xianyang edict!"
Feng Jie said.
Regardless of the details, it was the confusion before sending troops, or the actions after crossing the river, or even Bai Yan personally luring the enemy.
Feng Jie was truly impressed by these layers of planning.
Although Bai Yan's plan was still very dangerous, Feng Jie felt that according to Bai Yan's plan, the chance of defeating Zhao was extremely high.
"Papa~!"
Bai Yan stood up, clapped his hands, looked at Feng Jie one after another, like two people, and smiled: "There's no rush."
"Why?"
Feng Jie was a little confused when he heard Bai Yan's words. Seeing that Bai Yan was not worried at all, Feng Jie became a little anxious.
Now that the army is at Jingxing, it is difficult to advance. The morale of the army is beginning to be impetuous, and General Wang Jian is getting a little anxious.
There is clearly a plan to defeat Zhao, but why does Bai Yan look so calm?
"If you want to defeat Zhao Jun, there is still one last step left!"
Bai Yan looked at the ground and spoke softly.
Compared to later generations, his military strength was twice that of the so-called Soldier Immortal. His soldiers were powerful with bows and crossbows. All the cavalry officers and soldiers under his command had fought with him all the way, and he had countless soldiers who fought in hundreds of battles.
But it was a surprise.
He still had to wait for the last step.
Change general!
Bing Xian's first step was to start planning and deploying by inquiring about the details, but he actually went to Handan two months ago to plan the first and most critical step.
Replace Li Mu and replace Zhao Bianqi and Dai Beijun with another general.
When the time comes, Zhao Bianqi's army will be unstable and Jingxing will be defeated!
"One more step?"
When Feng Jie heard Bai Yan's words, he was full of surprise. He couldn't believe that such a superb plan was still one step short.
But next.
Seeing Bai Yan smiling and saying nothing, no matter how Feng Jie asked, Bai Yan wouldn't say anything.
