The roars of the generals were like thunder, and some even accused him of "disordering his life." However, Wei Liao was lifeless and very calm, quietly listening to the shouts of the generals.
"I've met Guo Wei." Ying Zheng and the others came in and greeted Wei Liao.
"Prince, tell me why I want the army to be stationed on the spot." Wei Liao returned the courtesy, then stared at Ying Zheng and asked, with a look of anticipation on his face.
He was testing Ying Zheng to see if Ying Zheng could answer.
"The captain is far-sighted and this is for rest and recuperation." Ying Zheng said with admiration.
"Recuperate? Why do we need to rest?" A group of generals shouted at the top of their voices: "We only have one day to get out of the extremity and fight the Huns. Brothers are dreaming about it. Don't rest, there is no need to rest."
"Nonsense!" Ying Zheng's face sank and he shouted in a deep voice: "You all know how to fight, but you don't know why you fight? You don't know what the price will be paid? You don't even think about how easy it is to pass through the Thousand Miles of Absolute Territory. Is that so? Even though Da Qin made complete preparations, after marching for more than half a month in the extreme territory, the men and horses were exhausted, and the soldiers were in desperate need of rest."
At this point, Ying Zheng's tone changed to a high-pitched tone, and he said: "The warriors of the Great Qin dare to fight and die. Even so, they will not be afraid of fighting. However, if we start a war when we are so destitute of men and horses, the warriors of the Great Qin will How many more people will die?"
Ying Zheng¡¯s words are very reasonable. It is very difficult to travel thousands of miles across the vast expanse of territory. After more than half a month of marching, the Qin army was already exhausted and in urgent need of rest and recuperation. If they fight the Xiongnu in this situation, the Qin army may not be defeated, but it will have to pay an unnecessary price.
"Thirty thousand? Fifty thousand? Or even more?" Ying Zheng raised his voice and roared, like thunder.
Wei Liao listened and nodded slightly, appreciating it greatly. Ying Zheng made his intentions clear, which was exactly why Wei Liao ordered the rest.
"This" The generals were choked, and someone said harshly: "The warriors of the Great Qin are not afraid of death! If they are afraid of death, they are not the warriors of the Great Qin!"
"Yes! Great Qin warriors are never afraid of death!" All the generals echoed in unison, all holding their heads high and puffing out their chests very proudly.
The reason why the Qin Army's elite soldiers were able to sweep across other countries and unify China was that the Qin Army's elite soldiers were not afraid of death. They were the most fearless of death among the armies of all countries. The generals are particularly proud of this.
"Great Qin warriors are not afraid of death, but is this kind of death meaningful?" Ying Zheng frowned, like an unsheathed sword, scolding the generals: "You know you can reduce casualties but do not do so. You are committing a crime. , this is irresponsible for the lives of the warriors, you should handle it according to military law!"
"" All the generals were speechless.
This kind of casualties is unnecessary and completely avoidable. If you just ignore the mood for a moment and fight, it is really a crime.
"Papa!" Wei Liao couldn't help but clapped his hands, expressed great appreciation, and said with a smile: "The prince is proficient in the art of war, Wei Liao admires it. Prince, tell me, what should we do next?"
"It's valuable to see the problem, but it's even more valuable to find a solution to the problem. Wei Liao is still testing Ying Zheng.
"Lieutenant, in my opinion, the army should rest for three days." Ying Zheng pondered for a moment and said, "During these three days, we should send more scouts to kill all the spies sent by the Huns to spy on us so that the news will not leak out. "
"Yeah." A flash of light flashed across Wei Miao's eyes, and he was greatly appreciated.
"Three days later, the army will all come out in battle formation and march out of the extremity area." Ying Zheng's eyes flashed.
"Battle formation?" All the generals were greatly surprised.
"Why use battle formation?" A general asked in confusion.
"Because the place we want to attack is Langjuxu Mountain, which is the sacred place for the Huns to worship their ancestors. The Huns must not allow any loss." Ying Zheng explained to the generals, saying: "Instead of letting us go out of the extremity to rest calmly, and then fight the Huns It¡¯s better to wait for us on the edge of the Absolute Territory and wait for work. As soon as we step out of the Absolute Territory, a war will break out.¡±
"Ah!" A cry of exclamation rang out, and all the generals were shocked.
"No wonder the Lieutenant General ordered a rest for this reason."
"The Huns are so vicious. Fortunately, the captain has seen through it." The generals finally understood and no longer had any objections to Wei Liao's move.
"The one who saw through the Xiongnu's scheme was the prince." Wei Liao praised Ying Zheng, cupping his fists.
Qin Yiren is a great person, Yingzheng is extraordinary, Qin has a successor, Wei Liao is very happy.
In this way, the Qin army stationed at the edge of Jueyu to rest and reorganize. During the rest period, Meng Tian led the flying cavalry to deal with the Huns' scouts.
The Qin army led by Li Mu encountered the same situation, and the generals were very dissatisfied with Li Mu's order to rest and regroup.??, complained hard. After Li Mu explained the whole story, no one had any objections, so the Qin army also rested and reorganized at the edge of Jueyu.
Three days later, Li Mu gave the order and the Qin army moved towards the edge of Jueyu. Arriving at the edge of the Absolute Territory, the Qin army immediately formed a formation. A huge military formation appeared, and a group of soldiers marched out of the Absolute Territory.
XXOX
On the edge of Jueyu, Shanyu is in the king's tent.
Touman Shanyu¡¯s brows were furrowed and he muttered: ¡°It¡¯s strange. Counting the time, the Qin army should have walked out of the extinct territory. Why is there no trace yet?¡±
The Qin army was resting in Jueyu. This incident was somewhat beyond Touman Shanyu¡¯s expectation. He had not thought of it for a moment.
"Great Chanyu, the people of the Central Plains are cunning and scheming. Could it be that they are just bluffing? They are not going all the way at all." A minister quickly reminded him. !
"How can we come to Mobei without going to the extreme territory? Could it be that the Qin dog still has wings and can fly?" A minister immediately retorted.
To reach Mobei, you must pass through a thousand miles of extreme territory. This is unavoidable unless you have wings and fly over like a bird.
"No!" Touman Shanyu shouted, slamming his right hand on the short case in front of him.
"Great Chanyu, what's wrong?" A group of ministers asked in confusion.
"The Qin Army is resting and regrouping! The Qin Army is resting and regrouping in the extremity area!" Touman Chanyu gritted his teeth and said: "What a cunning Qin Army, he actually saw through this Chanyu's plan."
How terrifying the Qin army's combat power is, Touman Chanyu will not fail to know. In the first battle that year, he witnessed the powerful combat power with his own eyes. If the Qin army had completed its rest and recuperation and was no longer depleted of men and horses, and charged into battle, the Xiongnu's chance of winning would be infinitely close to zero, if not zero. He would not be frightened.
The Xiongnu's chances of winning this battle were based on the fact that the Qin army was dragged down by the vast expanse of thousands of miles of territory and was depleted of men and horses. This point no longer exists. Yaotou Manshan can't help but be shocked.
"Great Chanyu, the Qin Dog is too cunning, and even rested in the extreme area. Once the Qin Dog is no longer short of men and horses, the Huns will have no chance of winning, so it is better to withdraw."
"Yes. We all know how terrifying the Qin Dogs are. Once the Qin Dogs are no longer trapped, it will be difficult for the Huns to defeat them. The Huns cannot challenge the Qin army head-on. They should withdraw and use the vastness of the desert to deal with the Qin Dogs until they defeat the Qin Army. The dogs have dragged the men and horses down, the baggage is gone, and when morale is low, if we fight again, we will definitely win!"
"Although the imperial court of the Chanyu is important, as long as the great chanyu is there, the imperial court of the chanyu is there. We don't have to stick to the imperial court of the chanyu."
A group of ministers came up with ideas, all of which were very reasonable.
The Qin army's combat power is too strong. Once the Qin army is no longer short of men and horses, the Xiongnu's chance of winning is infinitely close to zero. If they confront the Qin army head-on, they will definitely be defeated. Instead of doing this, it is better to abandon Shan Yu's court and use the vast space of the desert to deal with the Qin army until the Qin army is exhausted and defeated. If we fight again, we will definitely defeat the Qin army.
Although this Shanyu Royal Court has not moved for more than ten years, giving up will have an immeasurable blow to the military morale of the Xiongnu. However, it is not impossible to give up. As long as the Huns army is there, everything will be easy.
"Yes." Touman Chanyu agreed with the ministers' proposal and ordered the retreat.
However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred, and ripples were seen on the horse's breasts on the short case.
¡° Moreover, the ground beneath my feet was shaking, as if the earth was shaking.
"This" Everyone didn't understand why. You looked at me and I looked at you. They were really puzzled.
"Rumble!" A faint thunderous voice sounded, with the power to shock people's hearts.
"No! The Qin army is coming!" Touman Shanyu was the first to react, jumped up from the throne, jumped as high as he could, and rushed out of the king's tent like flying.
"The Qin army is coming?" All the ministers were frightened and hurriedly followed him out of the king's tent.
After leaving the king's tent, Touman Shanyu took a look around, and with all his eyesight, he saw a huge dark cloud appearing in the south, connecting the sky to the earth, giving people a heavy sense of depression. This dark cloud covers an extremely wide area, spanning dozens of miles, and is quickly drifting towards the Huns' camp.
"Send the order: form a formation and prepare to meet the enemy." Touman Shanyu knew that this must be the Qin army.
Judging from his experience in fighting the Qin army, the Qin army was advancing in a battle formation. If they were advancing in a marching formation, it wouldn't be a dark cloud, but a long dragon.
"Great Chanyu, please retreat quickly." Some ministers were horrified.
"Withdraw? It's too late." Touman Chanyu also wanted to withdraw, but he knew that if he retreated now, he would be seeking death: "If we retreat at this time, the Qin army will cover us from behind, and we will suffer heavy casualties. They trampled each other and many of them died "
At this moment, if the Huns retreat, it will inevitably cause a huge disaster. The Qin army will definitely take advantage of the situation to cover up and kill from behind. Under the Qin army's pursuit, the Xiongnu will definitely suffer heavy casualties. Moreover, a hasty retreat will cause the Xiongnu to trample on themselves and kill countless people.
Therefore, the Huns have no way to retreat. They must fight if they don¡¯t want to fight, and they must fight if they fight!
The ministers finally came to their senses and did not dare to talk about the retreat. They had no choice but to order the Huns to form formations and prepare to meet the enemy.
The Xiongnu army didn¡¯t know that the Qin army had rested and reorganized. They thought that the Qin army was exhausted and they were still dreaming of killing the Qin army. They were so excited that they formed their formation quickly.
Touman Chanyu saw this, and felt a little at ease, and his military morale could be used.
Just as the Xiongnu formed their formation, the Qin army changed again. The Qin army did not go straight to the Xiongnu camp, but drove toward the southeast and occupied the southeast.
" If the Qin army went straight to the Xiongnu camp to kill, Touman Shanyu would be in trouble. However, the Qin army drove towards the southeast and occupied the southeast, giving the Xiongnu an opportunity to form an array.
"Qin Yiren, Qin Yiren, don't you claim to have countless heroes? But your men are nothing but wine and rice sacks. Instead of attacking directly, they go around to the east. Doesn't this give me a chance to form an array?" Tou Mandan Unable to discover the cleverness of Li Mu's move, he grinned and sneered.
