Chapter 280 Bai Qi: The battle must be won, the attack must be taken
In the impression of the world, as the commander of an army, he should sit in the commander's camp and strategize the decisive victory thousands of miles away. Even if the enemy's light cavalry crosses the defense line the next moment, they will rush to the commander's camp and brandish a butcher knife to take your head.
The coach will still look calm when the mountain collapses in front of him, say "that's it" indifferently, and then suddenly three hundred swordsmen and axemen will rush out from behind the commander's camp to suppress the enemy.
But in fact, Tu Baiqi, as a representative of the military strategist who shocked the past and the present, always likes to deploy suspicious troops to contain the opponent, and then personally leads the main force to launch a surprise attack on the enemy.
At that time, he noticed that the Chu State was disloyal, the city was not repaired, and the defense was lax. Moreover, the Chu general Zhuang Qi went on an expedition to the southwest and took away many elite soldiers and generals. So he personally led tens of thousands of elite soldiers lightly armed to penetrate deep into the hinterland of the Chu State, catching the Chu army by surprise.
, frightened King Qingxiang of Chu so much that he fled to the capital to save his life.
The reason why Bai Qi personally led the main force in the sneak attack was not because the Qin State had no one available, but because the battlefield was ever-changing and fighter planes were fleeting. The generals on the front line reported their work to the commanders at the rear. In this way, the people who came back to Chu State had long since
The run is over. Only the commander personally leading the troops can seize this opportunity and put the enemy to death.
However, the risk is very high. If the coach is ambushed and killed, the whole game will be ruined and the whole army will be in chaos. Therefore, for normal people, their understanding is that I would rather do nothing.
I don't want to make mistakes either.
But Bai Qi is not a normal person.
The battle must be won, the attack must be captured.
Bai Qi served as the chief general of Qin for more than thirty years during his military life. He conquered cities and territories and used his troops like a god. He captured more than seventy cities for Qin without even a single defeat.
…
"Do we have to fight hard and fight to the death with the Ming army?"
Li Li looked at the endless lush forest, with the towering trees deeply rooted. Even though they had set up a dragnet to hide countless ambushes, he still felt something was wrong, "Aren't you Central Plains people the ones who kill the enemy generals without bloodshed? I
I have heard that there is a trick called the beauty trap, where you find a beautiful woman with beautiful scenery and beautiful scenery to lurk next to Zhu Gaojie, and then take his head with a sharp knife. As long as Zhu Gaojie dies, the battle can be won without a fight."
Li Bin glanced at Li Li and said gloomily: "Beauty is easy to come by, but how do you place this beauty beside Zhu Gaojiao, and how do you let the beauty assassinate him? Do you really think that Jin Yiwei is a free earner and can get close to the people around Zhu Gaojiao?
What is the surname of the ancestor, who is married, how much land is there, and what trivial troubles have arisen with the neighbors. Jin Yiwei can find out clearly. I am afraid that before the beauty even sets foot in the camp of the Ming army commander, Lu Chaoyang has already swung the butcher knife and killed her in anger.
That’s it.”
Furthermore, beauty traps must only work for those who are greedy for beauty. Do you know what kind of person Zhu Gaojie is?"
"have no idea."
"Zhu Gaojie is the crown prince, but apart from his wife Zhang Yingzhen, he has never had a concubine. Even Zhang Yingzhen, the crown prince, was granted a marriage by the emperor and forced him to marry the British government. Do you think such a person would be
A person who covets beauty?"
Li Li saw that the honey trap was hopeless, so he came up with another idea: "If the honey trap fails, we will just do what he likes. He always has a weakness, right?"
"Weakness?"
Li Bin sneered and said, "I have been a general in the Ming Dynasty for so long, and I know a lot about Zhu Gaojie. He does not love power. If not, he would not have been silent for more than ten years and would have been an unknown King of Qi. He does not
He loves money, and given his status, even if he does nothing, a lot of people will come to give money to him, but I have never heard of him asking for bribes or plundering people's wealth."
You may think that he is cherishing the feathers, but with his mind, is it difficult to make money while standing? It's not difficult, but he won't do it. To him, silver is just a number and has no value.
"
He is a person with no weaknesses. The biggest weakness of a person is desire. Everyone has desires, but I can't see desire in him. He treats everything in moderation, as if nothing can attract his attention. In this way
Where do you find the weaknesses of a person?"
Li Li couldn't hold himself any longer: "According to what you say, then Zhu Gaojie has become a perfect man?"
"If you say so, then he is really a perfect person."
Li Bin said calmly, "He is good at strategizing and playing with people's hearts. He is proficient in government affairs and the way to govern a country. He manages a big country like cooking a small one. He can command an army of hundreds of thousands and be invincible in his first time.
Every time, he was able to defeat the enemy with negligible damage. Not only was he good at commanding, but he was also brave enough to be invincible. He once led hundreds of cavalry deep into the desert to capture alive the King of Peace in Oala who had set up an ambush..."
He is also a master of medical skills. He never takes a military doctor with him to the battlefield because he is the best doctor. I also heard that he loves calligraphy and his works are comparable to those of King Zhong..."
You are right when you say that he is a perfect man. He is an outstanding person of his generation in both civil and military skills. He can dismount from his horse to govern the country and secure it, and he can also mount his horse to open up new territory and expand the territory, making unparalleled achievements."
Li Li laughed angrily: "You said that, so why fight? Why don't we tie ourselves up? The leaders of the 19th Route Allied Forces all went to Zhu Gaojie to apologize to Zhu Gaojie, shouting that His Highness is mighty and the guilty minister is here to ask for death.
Fulfill the wish of the guilty minister, and then let Zhu Gaojie's men chop off all our heads, put them in wooden boxes, return to the court, and give them to the Ming Emperor as a gift."
Li Bin shrugged: "I don't object if you do this. I think that His Highness will gladly accept your apology, and then let you follow the example of King Xiao Ming who 'died by falling into the water' and died peacefully. Li Bin shrugged.
Have a good trip brother, Li will burn more paper money for you during the Qingming Festival next year."
"I surrender before fighting, General Li is so ambitious!"
Li Li was so angry that he walked away, leaving only Li Bin alone.
Li Bin was not in a hurry and looked at the mountains and forests calmly.
The enemy is very powerful, but he is not a good person either.
With only 20,000 people, you want to take down the 19th Route Allied Forces. Your Highness, are you underestimating the enemy too much?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Zhu Gaojie? He will never come back!"
…
After tentative contact and exploration by both sides, both sides found out each other's background, and a large-scale confrontation began on the river beach in the northern part of Huanggao Forest. The flames of war burned on the sand and river, and the Ming Army and the 19th Route Allied Forces
The soldiers were fighting, war drums were rumbling, cannons were roaring, gunpowder smoke was filling the air, corpses were floating in pieces on the red river, and broken weapons could be seen everywhere.
"Report! The left front battalion exchanged fire with the enemy on the north bank, killing more than 800 enemies and losing about 200 people!"
Zhang Fu in the commander's camp calmly ordered: "Give up the north bank position and let the left front battalion withdraw."
"promise!"
At this time, the commander led the troops deep into the forest, and Zhang Fu became the backbone of the camp.
Regarding how to fight in the southwest, he was the most experienced veteran in the Ming Dynasty, and his layout was orderly.
One of the generals asked: "My lord, shouldn't we take advantage of the victory and pursue it?"
"Don't worry, just play with them."
Zhang Fu said calmly, "This is just the beginning. It seems that our army's casualties are much lower than those of the enemy, but don't forget that the enemy's total strength is several times ours."
At this time, the superiors are in line with the other party's wishes, and they are willing to confront us head-on. The enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered, so it is not suitable to fight to the death. We should advance slowly, deal with the enemy, and cannibalize layer by layer."
We just let out a position on the north bank, and then send two more battalions to raid and recapture it at night. Our mission is to hold the enemy on the main battlefield, not to engage in a tug-of-war with the enemy."
He could see that Li Bin was throwing a few pawns to catch his appetite. However, what kind of delicacies could the British public have never seen before, and just a few battalions wanted him to take the bait?
Who are you looking down on?
"Concentrate the fire on the south bank, and send additional middle and rear battalions to rush to reinforce them. Let them get into chaos and see if they want their arms or their buttocks. Once the enemy forces intend to encircle us, we will retreat, attack the middle road, and retreat with one shot."
Zhang Fu said leisurely, "If you want to go fishing with me, you have to get on the scale to see how much you weigh."
He doesn't need to have much advantage on the frontal battlefield. After all, he only has more than 10,000 troops in hand. If he hits too hard and is not careful, he will be killed.
He just needs to hold the opponent in check, not seeking victory, only stability.
…
"Check the number of people and withdraw if there is no problem."
"Your Highness, why do we run faster when we win than when we lose?"
"obey orders."
"No! All generals, count the number of people in your subordinate units, and quickly organize and prepare for transfer!"
In the hinterland of Huanggao Forest, in a rebel camp, thousands of rebel corpses were lying on the thick layer of rotten leaves.
Bai Qi glanced around. He had just led his troops to defeat the enemy camp and wiped out the enemy with negligible casualties. He did not feel the slightest joy, nor did he collect the spoils. Instead, he urged his generals to do it in the shortest possible time.
time to rectify and then evacuate.
The six thousand Ming army he led were like mice jumping up and down, biting here, biting there again, and then running away without hesitation. This kind of tactics is very rogue, and it is really humiliating.
Domineering.
However, Bai Qi doesn't care whether he is a scoundrel or not. There is no benevolence, justice and morality on the battlefield. What matters is the word "qi". If you want to be a gentleman, you should write documents in the Hanlin Academy. The battlefield is not a place where a gentleman should stay.
"Your Highness, everything has been sorted out!"
When Bai Qi heard this, he nodded slightly: "Withdraw!"
The general shouted to everyone: "Your Highness has an order, turn to attack another way!"
…
When the 19th Route Allied Forces arrived, they saw only the corpses of friendly troops on the ground, and no trace of the enemy.
The rebel general took a deep breath: "Run away again?"
"Which fucking bastard is this Ming Army soldier? He just runs away after a fight. You beast, do you dare to gesticulate with me?"
The adjutant beside him asked: "General, it's not a problem to always be like this. The Ming army is a real thieves. We chase them behind them, and they run in front, killing while running. They are like scoundrels. When we catch up,
All I saw was corpses all over the ground.”
"If you ask me for a basket, report the situation here and ask for reinforcements. I have to kill these bastard Ming troops!"
…
"Li Bin! You must give me an explanation for this matter!"
At the headquarters of the Nineteenth Route Allied Forces, Pingding Wang Lili angrily approached Li Bin.
Li Bin asked doubtfully: "What's wrong?"
"You didn't care if there was a fire in the backyard. How did you fight this fight!"
Li Li said angrily, "At least four to five thousand of us died in the forest. What do you mean? If I hadn't helped you suppress it, the other leaders would have swarmed up to settle the matter with you!"
Li Bin smiled and said: "What did I think was going on? This is it? In a war, no one will die. Only four or five thousand people died. This is just an appetizer."
“The ones who died are all us Cochin people!”
Seeing Li Bin's indifferent expression, Li Li couldn't help but became furious, "Those Ming people under your command are huddled in the coalition camp and don't let us Cochin people fight life and death for you outside. What are you doing?"
Heart!"
It would be fine if our people died in a head-on battle, but they died inexplicably. Under the command of a fool like you, they died inexplicably during the enemy's surprise attack, while the enemy was unscathed!"
Is this your plan? Is this your majestic strategy?"
"What's the rush? This is just the beginning."
Li Bin said helplessly, "I left my people in the camp for your sake."
"What the hell did you say?"
"It's not like you don't know that the people under my command are the most elite sergeants. I have them guard the camp to prevent the enemy from raiding. I am also thinking about your safety. You don't want to fight with the soldiers in the forest.
It’s just as inexplicable that I lost my head.”
Li Bin is telling the truth, it's not that he looks down on Li Li and his gang...well, he just looks down on Li Li and his gang.
The 19th Route Rebels, to put it bluntly, except for Li Bin's Ming Army, the remaining 18th Route are all a mess of Jiaozhi rebels. These people can't make a difference, at least they don't have much fighting power now.
When Li Bin fought against rebellions in the past, his one or two hundred Ming troops could often beat thousands of peasant armies to pieces. Nowadays, these southwest rebels are stronger than the peasant armies, but they are only stronger.
.
In his eyes, the Nineteenth Route Allied Forces were a joke. Except for his subordinates, the rest were cannon fodder, used to kill each other with the Ming army.
Even if he exchanged 10,000 rebels for 1,000 Ming troops, Li Bin felt that it was a gain. He despised Li Li and other Cochin people from the bottom of his heart. If it was not to fight against the prince Zhu Gaojie, how could he put down his identity and fight with these lowly Cochin rebels?
joint.
"You bastard!"
Li Bin's contemptuous gesture made Li Li completely furious, "In your eyes, are the lives of us Cochin people as worthless as sand?"
"Brother Li, this is war."
Li Bin said calmly, "War is so cruel. When we set foot on this battlefield, we should always remain rational and focus on the overall situation. Anger will make you lose your mind and make you even more stupid. Your anger will make you
More people will die under your command."
"you!"
Li Li was furious and gritted his teeth.
"Brother Li, you should calm down. I have my own arrangements, so you can rest assured."
Li Bin turned his back to Li Li and left. Li Li looked at his leaving figure with an imperceptible evil flash in his eyes.
