Han Xin's camp, listening to the report of the scouts below, Han Xin frowned. Looking at the generals below all looking at him with expectation, he did not waver in his strategy and ordered again; "According to the report of the scout,
, the enemy has been following us, and we have sent an order to the three armies to immediately break camp and retreat a hundred miles, and along the way each unit must discard some weapons, armor, and cooking stoves, so there must be no mistake.”
When the generals heard Han Xin's order to withdraw troops again, they immediately caused a commotion, with angry looks on their faces, obviously confused by Han Xin's order.
"General?" Hong Tao also understood the mood of his colleagues. He himself had doubts and retreating blindly would only lower morale. He really didn't understand Han Xin's intention, so he could only stand up and ask questions.
"Does General Hong have any doubts about my strategy?" Han Xin knew what he meant and said with a dumb smile.
Hong Tao looked at Han Xin and felt even weirder, but nodded naturally.
"Should you all be as full of mysteries as General Hong Tao?" Han Xin glanced at the generals in the tent and sighed slightly in his heart. He knew that if he insisted on going his own way and did not give the generals a reasonable explanation, the generals would be the same as himself.
The coach's disloyalty can lead to mutiny, which should not be underestimated.
"We are stupid, please ask the general to clarify our confusion?" The generals looked at each other, and then said in unison.
"I have sent 30,000 vanguard troops to travel day and night to the vast plains five hundred miles away to dig traps specifically to deal with the enemy's behemoth army." Han Xin pointed to a plain on the sand table map with his right hand, his eyes shining brightly.
The generals looked at where Han Xin was pointing, and all looked at each other in confusion. Then, as if they suddenly understood, they all said in unison: "The general has a far-sighted vision. We are ashamed of ourselves, so we will obey the order of the general."
The generals said to me, and one by one they left the tent and quickly went to their headquarters to make arrangements for the retreat of their subordinates.
"The general has successfully subdued the generals, I am very happy to congratulate you." Seeing that all the generals were gone, Fan Zeng immediately congratulated Han Xin and admired Han Xin's methods from the bottom of his heart.
"Thank you, military advisor. It's just that it's not that easy to get these illustrious generals to obey the military orders wholeheartedly. It takes a shocking victory to overwhelm and frighten them." Han Xin bowed his hand to Fan Zeng and explained,
However, there was no trace of worry on his face, and he looked like he was sure of victory and under control.
As the war drums and horns sounded outside, the two of them walked out one after another without having a deep conversation, and led the army to continue to retreat.
At this time, the generals arranged for their men to retreat, and they were no longer dejected, but happy. They were not stupid people, but it was difficult to figure out Han Xin's intentions. After Han Xin's reminder, they roughly guessed Han Xin's intentions.
The general ordered some patients, armors and cooking stoves to be thrown away just to create a feeling for the enemy. The Qin army saw the enemy's strength and fled in fear. They retreated for hundreds of miles in a day just to give the enemy the illusion that they were about to catch up.
The illusion of a group of fleeing troops is just to confuse the enemy.
Let the vanguard army build fortifications and dig traps to prepare. At this moment, they no longer doubted that Han Xin was just afraid of the enemy's strength and wanted to escape, so he ordered the withdrawal. Everyone made a secret, and naturally everyone was in high spirits and held back.
You are full of energy. Waiting for the moment to close the net, let the enemy taste the power of the weapons in their hands.
Just when Han Xin's army had retreated less than twenty miles, the latest information came from the scouts. A herald quickly brought the latest military information to the general Han Xin.
"Report to the general, scout the horse and report back. The enemy's vanguard cavalry is less than fifty miles away from the army and will catch up with the army in a moment." A herald reported to Han Xin.
"How many troops are there?" Han Xin nodded and then asked.
"Reporting back to the general, according to the report from the detective, it is about fifty thousand."
"Fifty thousand cavalry?" Han Xin pondered for a while, showing a pensive look, but for a moment, he immediately said: "Send the general's order, let General Hong Tao lead his 10,000 cavalry, break away from the army, hide on the right side, and wait for the opportunity.
"
"General Li Hu, leading his 10,000 cavalry troops, ambushed the left side, waiting for an opportunity.
"General Hu Wei, Li Long, led the remaining 80,000 cavalry of his headquarters to attack the rear in a roundabout way and cut off the enemy's retreat."
"General Yu Hai, leading his 10,000 infantry troops, waits on the spot for the enemy to pretend to be defeated without resisting. When he sees the enemy, he will immediately pretend to flee in a hurry. Anyone who disobeys the military order will be executed on the spot."
"Instruct all the three armies to disperse, pretending to be unable to form an army and continue to retreat. Seeing the enemy's cavalry cannot be stopped. I will personally act as a decoy among the three armies. When the enemy's troops penetrate deep and the three armies are encircled, I must completely annihilate the enemy.
Soldiers." Han Xin gave a series of orders and said in a cold voice.
"Take the order." When the herald heard Han Xin's order, he immediately mounted his horse, led a thousand of his men, and began to spread out in all directions to convey the general's order.
"General? Is this inappropriate?" Fan Zeng asked worriedly after hearing Han Xin's order.
"Oh? What's wrong? The military advisor just said it's okay, there's no need to avoid it." Han Xin saw Fan Zeng's worried and hesitant expression and smiled.
"It's too risky for the general to take risks with his own life. I don't agree with it. As the commander-in-chief of the three armies, the general has high hopes from your majesty and the safety of the officers and soldiers of the three armies is at stake. This move is too abrupt." Fan Zeng said it bluntly and did not shy away from it.
"The military advisor is overly worried. Marching and fighting are inherently dangerous and unpredictable. As the commander-in-chief of the three armies, I, Han Xin, cannot lead by example and have no fear of life and death. How can I serve the masses? What's more, the only way to win is to make dangerous moves. If you want to win a battle,
This is a huge victory that shakes the world. Without taking risks, how can we achieve huge gains?" Han Xin shook his head and argued with arguments.
Fan Zeng carefully tasted Han Xin's words and felt that they were reasonable, although he still had some resistance in his heart. Seeing Han Xin's unwavering expression, he knew that it would be useless to say more.
"General, our army is one million strong. As far as you can see, it's endless. How dare you attack our million-strong army with only 50,000 cavalry?" Fan Zeng didn't understand Han Xin's intentions at all. With a normal person's thinking, he didn't understand at all.
It is possible to make such a suicidal attack.
Even if one million soldiers lose their fighting spirit and flee in despair, as long as the enemy cavalry general is not a pig, he will not seek death.
"They will charge over. Even if they don't dare to charge over, they will be annihilated one by one." Han Xin smiled mysteriously, showing strong confidence on his face.
"Why did the general say this? Even if our army has 100,000 cavalry, attacking from the front, the left, the right, and encircling the enemy. However, the cavalry is too powerful and it is impossible to kill them all. The biggest result is nothing more than giving the enemy
Serious damage. If this is the case, wouldn't it be to alert the enemy and make the enemy's main force take precautions?" Although Fan Zeng admired Han Xin, this move was related to important battle situations in the future, and he had to remind Han Xin repeatedly.
"None of them can escape, they will all die here." Han Xin did not pay attention to Fan Zeng's doubts, but said with great confidence.
Seeing that Han Xin had everything under control, Fan Zeng was also suspicious. Is there any back-up plan? But even so, he still truthfully expressed his thoughts. The military advisor was originally to make suggestions for the three armies, and he must fulfill his duties loyally and continue
He reminded: "Even if the general can wipe out all these 50,000 cavalry here, will the main force of the enemy army be afraid of this? Don't they dare to continue to pursue our army?"
"Ha! Ha! The strategist has great strategy, unrivaled wisdom, and considers everything. But the strategist is just waiting to see the show!" Han Xin laughed loudly, and then looked back. At this moment, he could feel the earth shaking and rumbling.
A loud noise came from the rear, and he knew that the enemy's cavalry was not far away.
Fan Zeng also felt the movement. At this time, the three armies were defeated and scattered like a mob. Looking at Han Xin's appearance, it was too late to say anything at this time. The enemy's cavalry was not far away, and he could only
We can wait and see the good show Han Xin said.
"I asked the military adviser to watch a good show of inviting you to the urn, haha." Han Xin smiled again, turned to look at Fan Zeng beside him, and smiled strangely.
