Chapter 688: Conquering the enemy without fighting
"Ding, Han Xin fought his last battle, and will be rewarded with two random attributes permanently 1, current force 1, intelligence 1. Han Xin's current attributes have been raised to commander 104, force 79 (1), intelligence 99 (1), politics 56, and charm 90."
With Han Xin triggering an achievement reward, it means that this battle has finally come to a final result.
Inside Jiming City.
After the great victory, the entire army began to reward the entire army by killing cattle and sheep.
In the city lord's palace, the standing generals were reporting their gains and prisoners in turn.
It's just that Han Xin, who is the protagonist of this battle, is a little absent-minded.
At this moment, he is waiting for someone.
Yao Guangxiao, this is the person he is waiting for.
In this battle, all the generals opposed Han Xin's plan. Even Wen Zhong thought his plan was too risky. The more risky the plan, the greater the reward, but if it fails, the greater the loss.
.
In fact, the generals believed that the decision to go to war itself was a risky act. If they had to wait a few more months until the soldiers and horses were almost fully trained, the risk would be minimized at that time.
However, Yao Guangxiao was the only one who really agreed with Han Xin's decision.
After a few months, although the soldiers and horses recruited can be trained to almost the same level, even if they are still definitely not as good as those elite soldiers who have fought in hundreds of battles, they can at least look good on the surface.
However, their soldiers and horses can be trained to an almost complete level within this period of time, and the new recruits of the Hebei Province Army can also be trained to an almost complete level during this period of time.
Of the 11 counties in Hebei Province, only those two counties were in their hands. Moreover, they were jointly controlled by those from the Liangshan Clan.
Things in Liangshan are only a secret of a few people. Therefore, in the eyes of the world and most people under Wang Yu, people from the Liangshan clan are not Wang Yu's people.
However, it was precisely because in the eyes of the world, Wang Yu and the people in Liangshan were two different groups of people that Huangfu Mingze did not insist on placing his own men in these two counties. If all the land in these two counties were in Wang Yu's hands
If so, there will inevitably be many invisible fights in private.
Therefore, their war potential is absolutely incomparable to that of their opponent.
It was precisely with this in mind that Yao Guangxiao agreed to Han Xin's risky plan.
Of course, even if he agreed to this risky plan, Yao Guangxiao still preferred the mature and prudent Wen Zhong to execute it, rather than the fledgling Han Xin. However, Wang Yu insisted on pushing Han Xin to power, so only Han Xin could come to this battle.
Execute it yourself.
Fortunately, Han Xin did not live up to Wang Yu's expectations of him in the end.
Han Xin believed that Yao Guangxiao's combat philosophy vaguely coincided with his.
Stones from other mountains can be used to attack jade.
Although Han Xin used his last stand to win a key battle in this battle, many problems still need to be solved if he wants to capture the entire Hebei Province.
Han Xin wanted to hear Yao Guangxiao's thoughts, which might bring him some unexpected gains.
After a while, the tired Yao Guangxiao entered the lobby.
After a brief polite exchange, Han Xin directly handed over his hand and asked: "Sir, do you know why I won today?"
Yao Guangxiao smiled brightly: "As the military strategist said, you will be trapped in a place of death and then survive, and you will be trapped in a place of death and then survive... It can only happen once and never again. This battle will forever be the swan song of the military strategist!"
Indeed, such a dangerous strategy of risking life and death is almost impossible to replicate. If it is not a desperate situation, no one is willing to use such a dangerous strategy. Even they themselves may not be sure that it can be done.
Replicate the same situation again.
Han Xin shook his head and said: "Soldiers have no permanent momentum, and water has no permanent shape. In this world, those who learn from me will live, and those who imitate me will die. The people of future generations will definitely be better than those who came before..."
On this point, Han Xin has a different view. Things in this world are always improving, and the same goes for the art of war.
Not intending to discuss these issues too much, Han Xin asked seriously: "I want to pacify Hebei. I wonder what you can teach me?"
When Han Xin really started talking about business, Yao Guangxiao also looked solemn and said seriously: "I have heard that a wise man will make a mistake after a thousand worries; a fool will make a gain after a thousand worries. Therefore, even a saint sometimes
I will also follow Kuang Sheng’s advice.”
"Now the general is fighting with his back to the river. He defeated the emperor and never returned. He fell in one fell swoop to gather the Ming Dynasty."
"However, after this battle, our army suffered considerable losses in military supplies and food, and many soldiers suffered casualties. If we use such a tired army to attack the strong city of Hebei, I am afraid it will be difficult to defeat it in a short time."
Han Xin indeed won this battle.
However, even though they risked their lives and survived, it inspired the whole army's morale and willingness to fight, and allowed the weak army to fight the strong army in bloody battles. Although they won, how could the price they paid themselves be so small?
Fighting against the odds is not something you get every chance.
Defeating the strong with the weak is equivalent to walking a tightrope on a cliff, without making a single mistake. Because they have no chance to make a mistake. It is very likely that one mistake will end up being shattered to pieces.
"Then sir, do you have any plans?" Han Xin bowed and bowed.
Now that Yao Guangxiao has seen that they are now going to face the biggest problem, Han Xin believes that Yao Guangxiao will have some ideas in his heart.
Yao Guangxiao chuckled lightly and said, "It is unwise to seize a country with strong troops. Military strategists say that those who are good at using soldiers do not use short attacks to attack long ones, but use long attacks to attack short ones."
"For the present plan, it is better to suspend the troops and appease the orphans of the fallen soldiers. And send a small army to keep an eye on the movements of Tai'an and Zuozhen, and then send envoys to persuade the officials and generals of Hebei Province to surrender."
"Why persuade him?" Han Xin asked again.
Although Han Xin was able to achieve unfavorable results when it came to commanding troops to fight, this was Yao Guangxiao's forte when it came to calculating people's hearts.
"Your Majesty has proclaimed himself emperor now. With the help of the three kings and the power of the Celestial Master's Way, the two dynasties should be fighting against each other. However, our dynasty has just been established and there is a shortage of officials. If you use this to lure them, you can defeat them without fighting!" Yao Guangxiao said directly!
As she opened her mouth to talk, it was obvious that this idea had probably already taken shape in her mind.
Huangfu Mingze's court indeed relied on the power of the Three Kings and Tianshi Dao. After the forces of all parties gathered to form an aggregate, they were already qualified to compete with the original court.
However, Huangfu Mingze still has a big chicken and a small chicken, and many important positions are now vacant. If these positions are offered, I believe many people in Hebei Province will take the bait.
Maybe he was originally a sixth- or seventh-grade official, but if he defected to Huangfu Mingze and changed his identity, he would become a fifth- or sixth-grade official.
In this kind of thing, only one person can't resist the temptation. After one person sets an example, the second and third people will soon appear. In this way, it is really possible to conquer the enemy without fighting.
.
Of course, the most critical factor is that Han Xin won the battle, which plunged Hebei Province into turmoil again. If Hebei Province is still as stable as Mount Tai, then the actual effect of this victory without a fight will actually be
