The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Chapter 669: Use yourself as bait!

In the route chosen by Li Cunxiao, when passing through the border of Shanxi County and Jiuquan County, he needs to cross two peaks called Wangshan and Lishan. These two peaks are more than 300 meters high. Although they are not high, they are beautiful and natural.

There is only one mountain road between the two mountains, but because of the favorable conditions for setting up an ambush, the Qin general Bai Lin naturally chose to set up a pocket formation here.

Unless Li Cunxiao's soldiers and horses went around, if they headed straight, they would naturally fall into the pocket formation and be surrounded. This is also the reason why Bai Lin, the general of the Qin State, was proud. If he had 200,000 soldiers and horses under his command, if he could not stop the enemy, he would be ashamed to be a descendant of the Bai family.

So for Li Cunxiao, knowing that the Qin army had set up an ambush, why did he go this way?

Naturally, it is because of tricks.

Li Cunxiao had 150,000 soldiers and horses. In order to follow his strategy, he did not push all his troops to Wangshan and Lishan, but kept 100,000 troops to hide in the rear, and 50,000 soldiers and horses formed a long front and stopped in front of the mountains.

Then Li Cunxiao led his soldiers and horses through the mountain road. Because the mountain road was narrow and only three or four meters wide, Li Cunxiao's army could not pass through it in a short time, so it soon fell into Bai Lin's pocket formation and encountered the opponent's attack.

Bai Lin took advantage of the terrain to beat Li Cunxiao back, and had to flee back, while Bai Lin took the opportunity to pursue him.

The counselor beside him reminded Bai Lin: "General, be careful that this is an enemy's conspiracy!"

Bai Lin was overjoyed, and said: "The opponent only has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, what kind of conspiracy can there be! Don't take advantage of the victory to pursue it now, let alone wait! Daqin needs a victory now, and now has the opportunity to be the first army to defeat the enemy. How can you waste the generals! And this enemy army is weak in fighting power, look at their leader, although he is tall and thick, he competed with me, and almost lost the long spear in his hand! Martial arts cannot be disguised!"

The counselor thought for a while, and did not persuade him any more. The current Daqin needs to make a good start and use victory to make up for the shaken hearts. If Bai Lin can annihilate this Xia army, then his name will resound throughout Qin and become the new successor of the Bai family.

"The army obeys the order, follow me to pursue!" Bai Lin immediately ordered the herald to notify his subordinates, and then began to pursue Xia Jun.

After Li Cunxiao led his troops back, he continued to retreat eastward, and soon reached the place where he set up an ambush.

God knows how difficult it is for him to pretend to be a weakling, it's exhausting. In fact, according to Li Cunxiao's character, there is no need to feign defeat to attract the enemy's attack. Even if the opponent takes advantage of the terrain, Li Cunxiao can lead the soldiers to rush over and win the victory.

This is Li Cunxiao's pride.

But, who told Zhang Liang to give him a kit to design this way.

Zhang Liang told Li Cunxiao in the kit that Qin State needs victory, and its generals need victory even more, so as long as it is simply lured, the enemy will definitely pursue it. In fact, why doesn't Daxia need a victory to make a good start?

Li Cunxiao was brave and brave. Although he could win by forcing his way into the enemy's pocket formation, his own side would also have to lose troops. After all, he took advantage of the terrain. But if the opponent is drawn out, Li Cunxiao will occupy the ground, so that the victory will not only result in less losses, but also wipe out more enemies.

In the Eighth Route Army, Li Cunxiao was the first to plan for a big victory!

So Li Cunxiao obeyed Zhang Liang's strategy obediently, but he didn't expect that the general of the Qin army would fall into the trick.

When he came to the place where the ambush was set, Li Cunxiao did not flee, and immediately rectified his troops and waited for the Qin army to catch up.

Soon, Bai Lin led his troops to catch up. Seeing that Xia Jun didn't run away, Bai Lin was a little surprised, and then sneered, "You can't control yourself! Do you still want to resist?"

At this moment, Bai Lin, who was fascinated by the victory, hadn't realized that although Xia Jun had escaped, their formation had never been disordered, and it was simply forbidden. On the other hand, Bai Lin's soldiers and horses had not undergone systematic training because of the forced recruitment of the common people, so they joined the team, and it seemed that the whole team was messy and out of order.

The Qin army had already chased after him, Li Cunxiao immediately ordered the herald to wave the battle flag, the drums sounded quickly, and then the whole army turned into a cluster of arrows. Li Cunxiao is the arrow cluster at the front, behind him are archers, shield bearers, and infantry, and on both wings are cavalry. The army charged and began to charge towards the Qin army.

At this moment, the soldiers of the Great Xia didn't have to pretend to be shrimp soldiers and crab generals, their bravery broke out completely, which stunned the soldiers of Qin State.

Damn, why did the opponent suddenly become so aggressive, from a little sheep to a big tiger! Even took the initiative to attack.

The face of the counselor next to Bai Lin changed, and he shouted to Bai Lin: "Not good general! This is a trick of the enemy army, who deliberately took advantage of our competitive spirit to lure us to pursue!"

Bai Lin is not stupid, he has already figured it out, but now the soldiers and horses of the two sides only meet for three or four miles, and they will soon have to fight together, and there is no chance to retreat.

"It doesn't matter! We can win in a head-on confrontation!" Bai Lin replied, and then rushed forward, and also formed a cluster of arrows, personally leading the Qin army to charge.

The two sides charged and finally collided with each other. Li Cunxiao and Bai Lin were the first to be among them.

Bai Lin was in his twenties, holding a long spear and waving a spear flower, pointing the tip of the spear at Li Cunxiao's throat. In his opinion, the enemy in front of him was no match for him in three moves.

But it was Li Cunxiao's horse that greeted him, piercing Bai Lin's chest with a single blow, picking him off the horse, and throwing him away.

"I'm missing one!"

Li Cunxiao is a super-rank military general, and it is easy to kill a third-rank small warrior. Using the second move shows that Li Cunxiao is a waste of his reputation.

As soon as the two sides fought, Bai Lin died in battle, which broke the heart of Qin Jun who was confronting Xia Jun, but before they could react, the brave Xia Jun launched a fierce attack on them.

They were all elite soldiers trained by Li Cunxiao, and they were all good soldiers, and Qin Jun was so frightened that he lost his mind, so the result can be imagined, directly pressing Qin Jun to fight.

At the same time, the soldiers hidden by Li Cunxiao had already detoured to the rear of the Qin army, and now they also began to encircle and suppress.

In this way, 150,000 troops encircled and suppressed the 200,000 troops of the Qin Army. Although there was a gap of 50,000 troops, the victory fell to Daxia. The final result can be imagined without guessing. The Qin army was defeated and had already begun to flee. Li Cunxiao ordered the army to pursue and wiped out countless enemies.

Afterwards, Li Cunxiao packed up his soldiers and horses, cleaned the battlefield, and sent some soldiers and horses to cross Wangshan and Lishan first to avoid being reused by the Qin army.

After counting the battle achievements, it is known that more than 50,000 enemies were wiped out this time, and nearly 40,000 were captured, while Li Cunxiao's soldiers and horses were killed or injured around 10,000, which can be described as an overwhelming victory.

Most of these captives were civilians who had been forcibly conscripted. When they saw something was wrong on the battlefield, they immediately abandoned their weapons and surrendered. Or a blow from the barrel of a gun, and then yell at them to squat down with their heads in their hands.

Xiao Rui ordered not to kill the captives, so many Qin people naturally couldn't support them, so he sent people to escort them back to the Dongqi area. These are all grown men, natural labor force. The Huangtian Group has enclosed a large amount of land in the Dongqi area, and these people just use it for farming.

What Li Cunxiao didn't expect was that when he told these captives about Daxia's benevolent government that they would be given land and become Daxia's common people in the future for their crimes and meritorious deeds, these captives were eager to go to the Dongqi area, and even wanted to bring their families there. .

At the same time, the news of the battle of Wangshan was also spread all over the world with various eagle reports.

Han Xin got the Eagle News and immediately went to meet Xiao Rui.

Seeing Li Cunxiao's victory, Xiao Rui laughed, and said: "Zifang is as good as a god, and the generals of the Qin State who are against the enemy really fell for it! The more they want to win, the harder it is to win. The first battle was a big defeat. The blow is not small, I believe that Shanxi County has already received the news."

After speaking, he handed the news to Zhang Liang.

After Zhang Liang saw it, he smiled and said, "Your Majesty, don't rush to attack the Shanxi County City, let's hang it out for two days. The old general who guards the city is named Liu Shuai, with a steady and cautious personality. It’s not easy to trick him out.”

Xiao Rui smiled and said: "Forcing is the worst strategy. I have good generals and counselors by my side. Are you afraid that I won't be able to take down a Shanxi county? Tell me, what plan do you have?"

Zhang Liang looked at Han Xin, beckoning him to speak.

Han Xin then said: "Your Majesty, the soldiers and horses in Shanxi County have been roughly figured out. There are 300,000 soldiers, including 200,000 Qin troops and 100,000 Qin people who were forcibly conscripted. Liu Shuai personally sits in the town. Inside and outside, there is a prefecture city respectively, namely Licheng and Kangcheng, both of which have 50,000 soldiers stationed. The three cities are like horns. And Kangcheng. Once attacking these two cities, the Chinese army will disperse its forces, and Liu Shuai will definitely give up defending the city and go out of the city to attack."

Xiao Rui asked: "You are using me as bait!"

Han Xin said with a smile: "Your Majesty only leads an army of 400,000 troops to march in person. It is a risk for himself. He deliberately wants to disrupt the layout of the Qin State and let the Qin court fall into the trap. Therefore, I dare to ask Your Majesty to be the bait."

As the emperor, Xiao Rui's safety is the most important thing, but there are only 400,000 soldiers in the middle, which sounds like a lot, but it is actually not that many. Xiao Rui is in danger.

Knowing this hidden danger but still doing this is naturally the trick of Xiao Rui, Zhang Liang, Han Xin and others.

Although the soldiers were divided into eight groups, Li Cunxiao, Dianwei, and Yang Youji's soldiers and horses were all on the two wings. If Qin really dared to gather a large force to fight, it would just fall into Daxia's trap. Qin State does not have so many troops, once all the troops are gathered together, there will be no soldiers in other areas. At that time, Chen Qingzhi, Yue Fei, and Qi Jiguang can really drive straight in.

This is Daxia's conspiracy, and the Qin court is aware of it, so they don't want to fall into the trick, but set up a defense line to resist Daxia's various armies.

However, Xiao Rui is the Emperor of Great Xia after all, so the temptation is great. When Xiao Rui has few troops around him, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Even if Liu Shuai is calm, can he hold it back?

Moreover, Qin has already lost the first battle, and it is more urgent to win to boost morale. Even if the Emperor Daxia cannot be killed, it is a great joy to win!
