Chapter 46: Meng Shuais Military Enlistment II(1/3)
Meng Fang was silent, his face was calm, neither sad nor happy, and he actually had no joy at all about being promoted.
Everyone praises themselves to the point of embarrassment - the person being praised has no reaction at all, so what's the point of my praise?
This guy also has a really awesome personality.
So many superiors are praising you, but you, a subordinate, don't say a word. Are you crazy?
But the military camp is a special existence. Even if you feel dissatisfied, their achievements are real and there is no fakery.
As long as no one questions this, that's enough.
"Walk!"
Everyone else has left.
"Master Colonel, why didn't you just say a few polite words? Wouldn't it be good to build more friendships?"
"With a few words of politeness, can you allow me to retire early and go home to live my life?"
When all the subordinates heard this, they were speechless for a long time.
This guy is really a fool, why is he so focused on going home and living his life?
After three consecutive battles, the Mongolian side underwent a major change of troops, with more than 4,000 men being replaced.
The subordinate generals began to arrange for the Mongolian side to go on separate missions, leading their subordinates to form an independent army and fight alone.
In the eyes of a discerning person, this will make their own judgment: this is clearly to cultivate the Mongolian side's ability as a general, and it is targeted.
And the Mongolian side really lived up to their cultivation. In the second half of the year, they led their troops to surprise Baishui City and tore a hole in the iron wall defense of General Li Po of the Great Zhao Dynasty.
This is an achievement that many great Qin generals cannot achieve or accomplish!
And inside Baishui City, it is already within the Great Zhao Iron Wall. If you break through this defense line, the road ahead will be bright and smooth, and there will be no obstacles.
What's more, after opening this gap, the rear grain and grass route behind Baishui City will also be exposed.
As long as it is cut off, the Zhao soldiers and horses will be extremely dangerous, and there is a risk of the entire army being annihilated.
Seeing such a shocking change, he summoned the leader of the Zhao army, Li Po, who was known for his stability, and made his first appearance early. He mobilized tens of thousands of Zhao troops and surrounded Baishui City like crazy, launched a fierce attack, and vowed to take back this city.
A key hub.
However, Qin State took the opportunity to send troops and set up a decisive battle formation.
As the main force of the Qin Dynasty pressed on the border, the Zhao army was attacked from both sides.
Li Po made a prompt decision, quickly gathered his troops and retreated, still maintaining the posture of besieging Baishui City, and reduced the originally huge force lineup to half the scope.
Set up a hedgehog formation on the outside to guard against Fei Xinyu's surprise attacks at all times.
On the other side, although it seems that they have given up attacking Baishui City, in fact Baishui City is still under heavy siege and is under heavy pressure.
It's still steady and steady, and it's still not messy at all.
Even if you give up your territory, you must keep your military strength and combat capabilities intact. You really don't lose the reputation of being the number one military officer in the Zhao Dynasty. You are indeed very, very stable!
If this is a fierce battle, it will be a fierce battle for a whole day and night.
Fei Xinyu attacked like crazy and made several attempts to penetrate, but was repelled by Li Po at all costs.
But just when the war situation was reaching a stalemate, something unexpected happened.
However, the heavily besieged Mongolian side led its remaining 6,000 soldiers and horses to fight their way out of Baishui City against the odds.
This time, it was like Sun Wukong borrowing the banana fan - causing a commotion in Princess Iron Fan's belly.
Fei Xinyu's troops on the periphery attacked fiercely, combined with the counterattack force of the core of the Mongolian troops, the situation of internal and external attacks was established.
Even though Li Po was one of the greatest military gods in the world and as steady as he was, he was still thrown into confusion by Mongolia's completely lifeless suicidal counterattack, and his military morale was shaken.
Although the Zhao army only rioted for a moment, the outcome was already determined.
Fei Xinyu seized the opportunity and roared: "Pressure the whole line!"
"decisive battle!"
Zhao Jun was defeated!
This was also Li Po's first defeat in his life since he took command of the army.
But Li Po was Li Po. Relying on his invincible prestige, he held the team together and was defeated without chaos.
A way to abandon the 150,000 troops and bring most of the troops back to Baishui safely!
After the war.
Li Po specially sent someone to ask: "Who is the general who made a surprise attack on Baishui City and charged ten thousand troops to the death?"
Li Po, Fei Xinyu, and Ma Daocheng, who assisted, all understood the key to this very well.
In this battle, the biggest contributor, or the only success, was really only one - the Mongolian side!
If he hadn't made a surprise attack on Baishui City to break the layout, with Li Po's ability, he would not be able to say that he would be able to defend the Zhao Kingdom for a long time, but it would not be difficult to sustain it for three to five years!
Although the Qin army was strong, it was blocked by one country and one place for several years. Not only was the national strength and morale greatly reduced, but it also gave other countries room to recuperate and recuperate, causing far-reaching consequences!
Similarly, if the Mongolian side had not led its troops to rush out during the stalemate, the Zhao side would still have the upper hand in this battle.
The remaining Mongolian troops, with no more than 6,000 troops, were heavily besieged. They were already suffering from scabies and would be destroyed in a few days at most!
After such calculations, no matter whether we are friends or foes, everyone knows one thing, that is, under the circumstances that Mongolia faced at that time, although the decision to rush out of Baishui City was correct, it was still very difficult.
Before that, the Mongolian side led 10,000 soldiers and horses, and although they succeeded in a surprise attack on Baishui City, they suffered a lot of losses.
After enduring the fierce attack of the Zhao army, it was even more difficult to defend the city that had just been attacked with less than ten thousand soldiers and horses.
It had withstood several times the enemy's crazy attacks.
This is difficult, and all generals know how difficult it is.
But he held on, and he held on for a full day.
After two such wars, how can the consumption be reduced?
But in the end, when Fei Xinyu launched the general offensive, when the fierce battle was at its fiercest, he seized this opportunity and rushed out of Baishui City to fight.
Although his actions only attracted hundreds of thousands of Zhao troops and created a little chaos.
And that little commotion could very well cost them all their lives!
At the same time, if this turmoil wants to be effective, then Fei Xinyu must seize this opportunity, launch a decisive battle, and determine the outcome in one battle.
But before the war, they had no communication.
In other words, Meng Fang was gambling by rushing out, gambling with all their lives, gambling that Fei Xinyu could seize this opportunity.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! And in the end, he won the bet!
A bet with life as the bet resulted in the first defeat in the life of Li Po, the leader of the Zhao army!
Finally succeeded, even though it was a resounding victory...
But the danger involved can be seen by anyone with a clear eye.
Every step is like walking through a mountain of knives, every moment is like walking through a sea of fire!
Surprising soldiers emerged, climbed over the cliff, and attacked Baishui City by surprise. This was already an adventure of a narrow escape.
Every step is like walking through a mountain of knives, every moment is like walking through a sea of fire!
Surprising soldiers emerged, climbed over the cliff, and attacked Baishui City by surprise. This was already an adventure of a narrow escape.
Just to create an opportunity for war: he succeeded.
The enemy was surrounded by heavy troops and defended the city for a whole day, delaying time for the army to react.
It was impossible to persevere, and he did it again.
In the fierce battle, he rushed out to create a slim chance of victory. It was him, it was him, it was he who did it!
Such strategy, courage, courage, and personal charm are all top-notch in the world and well deserved!
Maybe many people don't understand why there is such a thing as personal charisma, but all generals understand: Only when the coach's personal charisma is strong enough, will his soldiers be willing to risk their lives in desperate situations!
As long as you are weak, it will not work!
When it comes to morale, if it works, it will work. If it doesn’t, it won’t work. It’s absolutely possible that it won’t work, and conversely, if it works, it won’t work!
It was because of this person that he created a series of qi opportunities and finally forced Li Po's army back to the west of Baishui.
This is the most significant strategic victory of the Qin Army in its invasion of the Six Kingdoms.
You must know that this side of Baishui is Hangu, which is a dangerous and important place in Zhao, and it is also an important place like no other!
This boundary is surrounded by high mountains on both sides, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack. There is white water as a barrier. At the end is a strategic area, which is like a portal, restricting the Qin army's horse herding and Zhao territory.
How could such an important and dangerous place be lost when General Li Po, the first person in the Zhao army and known for his stability, was personally stationed there?
Now that Li Po's army has retreated, this barrier has become Great Qin's!
Even though the Zhao army did not suffer too many losses in this fierce battle, the change of hands of the natural danger was also a disastrous defeat for the grand strategy.
And all this is just because of one person!
