Wouldn't it be funny if you wanted Guan Zhong to confront you head-on even though he knew he was weak?
Although Guan Zhong was also evaluated as a military strategist by later generations, most of them were based on his military ideas. As for the battles he fought, they were really nothing!
As for Guan Zhong, what he was best at was subduing others without fighting!
Of course, being able to defeat others without fighting is the highest level of military affairs.
The reason why Guan Zhong was able to defeat Ping Xi was because he was fishing in troubled waters.
Taking advantage of the darkness, two small groups of soldiers and horses were sent to harass Mingdao and Hepingxi respectively, and lured them out. Some small traps were set up halfway.
Although these little traps have no lethality, they are very disgusting. They made Ping Xi and Ming Dao tire of it. In their confusion, their respective sanity was also affected.
Under Guan Zhong's temptation, the two troops who met in the night regarded each other as enemies and started fighting in chaos.
After killing for a while, Ping Xi and Ming Dao each realized something was wrong. However, the soldiers under their command were already fighting together, and the soldiers on both sides were so red-eyed that they were not separated immediately.
At this time, Yu Qian of Tongtai County, who had received the news from Guan Zhong, also led the garrison to fight out.
Although Guan Zhong's troops have little fighting power, they don't need much fighting power to beat up a drowned dog.
The two forces combined their efforts to defeat the chaotic Ping Xixi and Ming Dao Department.
During this fight, Ping Xi was chopped off his horse by Tan He's sword in the chaos. Although he did not hit any vital points, he did not get up in time after falling off the horse and was trampled to death by the confused soldiers on both sides. Such a way to die.
It can also be said to be quite frustrating.
After a huge defeat, only Ming Dao led some of the remaining soldiers and fled in a hurry.
"This idiot Ping Xi still has a clear way and is a man who has harmed the country!"
"Pingxi mistook me! Mingdao mistook me!"
After hearing the general process of the war, Li Shikai was stunned for a while and didn't know what to say. After a while, he finally started to curse.
"Okay, Mr. Hua, now the deal is done, let's think about what to do next?" Zhuge Linghu turned his head and said.
"What can we do? Of course we have to find a way to take back Wangnanpo!" Li Shikai said angrily.
If Wang Nanpo is not taken back, their troops will be finished when Hei Qi's troops and horses meet Han Xin's troops.
But Li Shikai didn't know that if Han Xin really wanted to take care of them, would he really need to wait for the Black Cavalry troops to arrive?
It seems that Han Xin has released too much water these days, causing them to misunderstand something.
"How can it be so easy?"
"Don't forget, we still have Han Xin's troops behind us!" Zhuge Linghu shook his head and said.
Even excluding Han Xin's troops and horses, after their troops and horses arrive at Wangnanpo, it will take at most two days for the black cavalry to arrive. Now the situation is really urgent.
Even if the opponent takes over the South Slope, they don't have many troops there. If they can really send troops back, it won't be difficult to take it again.
But the question is, how can it be so easy to withdraw?
"It's time to make a choice about opening a public flower. If you continue to stop it, you will suffer chaos!" Zhuge Linghu seemed to have a hint.
"Don't forget, didn't the general and Duke Xianlin already have plans when they were planning for His Highness?"
"So you are actually a member of Duke Xian Lin?" Li Shikai said in surprise.
He always thought that it was he and Gu Yeming who persuaded Zhuge Linghu, and as the younger brother of the head of the Zhuge family and Yunhu among the three dragons, tigers and dogs, his role was self-evident. If not
In his words, how could they get the support of so many powerful families this time?
However, now the other party actually mentioned the name Xian Lin Gong, which made him wake up instantly. The two people must have been in contact for a long time.
Zhuge Linghu was noncommittal, had no approval, and no objection.
Although that person had a great reputation, he only had respect for that person. That was all. No matter how famous he was, he could not command Zhuge Linghu.
The reason why he got involved in this matter was just because he wanted to do it.
"Yes! I was already prepared!" Li Shikai showed a relieved smile at this time.
There is no absolutely successful operation, and before sending troops to Hebei Road, they had already made a plan for failure.
Now that it has evolved to this situation, let’s just keep going like this!
Isn’t it just a life?
Anyway, he was already ready to risk his life.
The only thing he regrets is that he feels sorry for his eldest brother. It has been almost ten years and he still has not found his eldest brother's bloodline.
When he was still a prodigal, his elder brother taught him something with his own life, and now he has Li Shikai, who later became a genius.
At that time, Li Shikai, in order to take good care of his eldest brother's posthumous son, never married. He was nominally a nephew, but he raised his eldest brother's son as his own.
It’s just that God is unfair to this thief!
His nephew was the top scholar in high school and was about to become famous. However, on the way to take office, he died on the way. Except for the newborn child, no one in the family was missing.
Spared.
Until now, after so many years, it is still an unsolved case.
And after searching for so many years, he still couldn't find his missing grandnephew.
After so many years, the hope of survival was too slim! But Li Shikai refused to give up. But soon, he had to give up. He was about to die, so naturally he could not continue searching.
"Then, we have to leave everything to Mr. Zhuge!" Li Shikai stood up, straightened his back, and his bright eyes seemed to be more than ten years younger all of a sudden.
There was a period of confusion in his life, but fortunately he suddenly came to his senses. Although he did not say that he had any great achievements during his tenure as an official, he considered himself to be incorruptible in the past few decades and had never been greedy for a big man.
The inner robe in the armor, all patchwork and patchwork, can be said to be a beggar's outfit.
He believed that he should have lived up to his brother's expectations and not brought shame to his brother.
Yu Xiandi, in his most difficult time, helped him clear his brother's unfair injustice, so that a man who dared to plead for the people would not die with a stigma attached to him.
After that, the late emperor regarded it as a minister of humerus and entrusted him with important responsibilities.
These kindnesses are worth repaying with his life.
