Chapter Five Hundred and Twelve New World's **
(Thanks to Oang for his monthly vote again, May Day code, the glorious work of labor, brothers vote for monthly votes!)
There are high mountains and dangerous passes in front of it.
The Indians set up heavy troops at the gates, and the Qin generals and generals were very troubled by the attack and defense cities of such a plateau-deficient area.
Bad breathing.
With heavy steps, coupled with the invasion of the altitude sickness, the Qin army soldiers who came from afar were like war horses climbing a mountain with heavy goods on their backs. Every step they took was difficult, let alone attacking the pass. In comparison, Indian soldiers were mostly Ding, a local tribe of the Xunga tribe, and were much stronger than the Qin army in terms of adaptability.
Han Xin's words were amazing.
In his calm jokes, he quickly sorted out the method of meeting and luring the enemy. This adjustment in front of the battle was not only the experience he accumulated in more than 20 years of wars, but also the decision of his military talent. In this regard, even Li Yuan was willing to give up the disadvantage.
Talent is something.
It was really given by God. Han Xin was known as the military immortals and the military gods in ancient Chinese military history. His insights on small-scale battles in such a specific and complex environment suddenly attracted the attention of the generals.
"General, lure the enemy on another road and set up a hiding in the valley. What if the enemy cannot defend it?" Feng Tang thought about it and asked with a frown.
"Person Feng, your question can be answered in this way. If the defending enemy is not released, we can completely turn false into real. The strange soldiers who detour the way out escaped from the enemy's back and cut off the supply of the enemy's exchanges. In a few days, the enemy will collapse." Han Xin drew a circle on the sand table with force and said calmly.
In layman's terms, Han Xin's strategy is to play a scam in front of the Indians. Only when the defenders of the pass believe that the Qin army really chose to turn from other mountain roads would they panic. At this time, the Qin army attacked with an elite force to seize the pass.
"The surprise soldiers are behind. The south side of Mount Suleiman is full of the territory of the Xunga people. What if the surprise soldiers are blocked?" Feng Tang asked after his brows.
"Haha, the Captain Feng will indeed ask, I will answer this question on behalf of the general. General Xunga Puciamita assassinated the giant cart, which made all the countries in the southern continent feel uneasy. If our army appears in the Indus River Basin under the banner of hundreds of chariots, under the chariots, Andalo or Dalubicha people, although the Xunga people are confused, they will not react immediately. Taking advantage of this time difference, we will be able to ban and annihilate the defenders at Solomon Pass." Li Yuan took Han Xin and Feng Tang's answer, and further supplemented the plan proposed by Han Xin.
Strategy.
It can be divided into two types: conspiracy and conspiracy.
The real and false trick that Han Xin proposed just now belongs to the open conspiracy on the battlefield. Now, Li Yuan's supplement is more tantamount to the flavor of conspiracy. Taking advantage of the enemy's internal strife and pretending to be one of the clans can not only make the Xunga people confused. More importantly, it can also aggravate the conflicts between various tribes in India. This kind of political strategy was unthinkable by Han Xin, but on the contrary, as a superior, Li Yuan was familiar with this kind of power trick.
Li Yuan's additions made the generals participating in the military discussion excited the feelings of the generals. At this point, the Qin army's combat plan had completed the basic concept, and the next step was to determine the candidates for leading generals in all aspects.
"Your Majesty, I am not talented. I am willing to ask an army to lie in the valley to climb first to defeat the enemy." The first person to react from the shock was Yang Yu, who knew very well about Li Yuan, the former military marquis of the military camp, who had discovered Li Yuan's tendency towards Han Xin's plan from the slight changes in Li Yuan's face.
"Your Majesty, it has been more than a month since our Eastern Army arrived in the Suleiman Mountains. No one knows the terrain here better than me. Therefore, the mission to board the first is our army." Zhou Xing's reaction was not slow. He and Yang Yu knew each other the most. After hearing the other party's request for battle, he also made a quick decision.
"Your Majesty, although my Wuhuan tribe failed once, we are most familiar with the situation at the pass, so please give us another chance." Hearing that the generals around him volunteered, the leader of the Wuhuan tribe, Qiu Lijinban, the vanguard of the northern Qin army, hesitated on his wrinkled face, and finally joined the ranks of requesting battle.
This seemingly ordinary military discussion shocked Qiu Lijin, who participated for the first time, and the discussions between the Qin generals on the battlefield situation were something he had never seen before. Under the tent of the former Great Huns, the important tribal leaders such as the Left, Right King, Right General, and King Gu Li, had no say in front of Maodun. What they had to do was to obey orders and lead the tribe's troops to attack or rob.
The generals scrambled to fight for the task of taking the strong attack on the pass, and compared to the arduous mission that detoured the enemy was thrown aside by everyone and unclaimed.
The expression on Li Yuan's face gradually became serious. The continuous victory could certainly inspire the ambitions of the Qin soldiers, but the pride and excessive emphasis on military merits also unknowingly corrupt the general's hearts. Everyone felt that they were the most suitable for the first time and no one was willing to do hard work and tiring work. How could this be?
"General, you are afraid you are tired after traveling a long distance. Today's military discussion will be discussed tomorrow." Li Yuan thought for a while, nodded at Han Xin, and ordered.
Seeing Li Yuan's face unhesitating, the generals noticed some of the tactfulness, so they said goodbye and left in disappointment. Feng Tang, the captain who had asked many questions at the beginning of the military discussion, paused for a moment, then lowered his head and walked out after everyone. There were only a few reckless guys, who were still talking about something without any wit.
——.
It's night.
The lights at Li Yuan's residence were on all night.
What the Qin generals didn't know was that after they left, Li Yuan sent someone to invite Han Xin over again. The two of them drank several jars of Guanzhong wine and plates of side dishes that they personally sent.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, I look at Feng Tang. It's a bit like you back then. In time, the Qin Dynasty will have another good general?" Han Xin sat down and recommended to Li Yuan. Obviously, although Feng Tang asked several questions in the military discussion, he gave Han Xin a very good impression.
"Feng Tang is good, but the performance of other generals is disappointing. Yang Yu, Zhou Xing and others have suffered too few setbacks. Over the years, I have blamed me for being so cared for, and I have misled them." Li Yuan sighed and said.
"If Your Majesty thinks that Yang Yu and the others are immature, then the tomorrow's military proposal will be arranged by me. What? If Yang Yu and Zhou Xing are not convinced, Your Majesty will find an opportunity to rectify it." Han Xin thought for a while and said in a deep voice.
"Since the plan to capture Xunjia, Baicheng, Magadha and other countries is proposed by the general, the specific arrangements will naturally be handed over to the general. If Yang Yu and Zhou Xing are dissatisfied and missed the military opportunity, I will punish them severely." Li Yuan's face tightened and he said solemnly.
Compared with the military victory or defeat, what Li Yuan really cares about is the bad signs of striving for merit in the thoughts of generals in the military. How to create an atmosphere of unity, cooperation and progress among generals at all levels is the most critical of the current Qin army. Only in this way can the Qin army in the future remain an unshakable force, otherwise, they will eventually become a meteor of this era like those disappeared strong troops in the long river of history.
Drunk all night.
Taking advantage of the alcohol, Han Xin talked about the scene when he first met in Qishan. He was bullied by Chu general Long Qi from Xianyang. He originally wanted to join Hanzhong King Liu Bang, but he did not want to meet his clan brother Han Si. It was this encounter that not only changed Han Xin's personal destiny and also accelerated the rise of the new Qin Dynasty.
Without Han Xin, Li Yuan's unification battle would be much more difficult. This is not just a one-plus-one problem. Once Han Xin's gold falls into an opponent like Liu Bang, its destructive power is amazing. Without Li Yuan's heavy use, Han Xin may continue to have a shiny place in the military, but his potential can only be tapped into the domestic war. The elderly Liu Bang cannot allow such a powerful dangerous person to live.
Now, when the Qin Dynasty was expeditioning westward to Europe and Asia, the Qin army was like a huge black wave, sweeping over places that the Qin people had never been to. As the commander of the Qin army on the northern route, Han Xin's military talent was undoubtedly shown in these conquests. Perhaps in the eyes of others, the enemy of the northern route was too weak, but only Han Xin understood that the harsh environment did not test the Qin army much less than the other two routes.
"King Han, do you know that in the northeast of the North Sea, in the extreme north of Xianbeilia, there is a strait where the sea surface can be passed through in winter, and opposite the strait is another new land that is not smaller than the continent we are currently in -!" Taking advantage of the alcohol, Li Yuan revealed the information of the New Continent of North and South America to Han Xin for the first time.
"The New World? Can there be countries there, can people live in it? How powerful is their national strength? I, Daqin, is stronger--" Han Xin was shocked and asked a series of questions.
Since the Western Expedition, Han Xin also knew that there were many countries in the Eurasian continent. Although there was a powerful country in the West, under the current situation, the first round of the Great Qin vs. Rome battle led by Li Yuan himself has ended. The Great Qin naval fleet has gained dominance in the Mediterranean. Han Xin does not think that he has much need to participate.
The lack of goals is the main reason for Han Xin's silence in recent stage. Although the Indians overestimate themselves, although they can inspire the fighting spirit of the Qin generals, for Han Xin, the strength of India, a subcontinent tribe with civil strife, is still too weak.
"There were humans inhabited early in the morning on this large land east of the Bering Strait. Most of them migrated from this side of the strait. Of course, there were also indigenous people who rafted across the sea from the south. However, they mostly lived in the primeval forest at the other end-!"
"As for rivers and mountains, there is also a water system as vast as ours, the vast rivers, the stretches of Andes, and the abundant plains and valleys. By the way, on the other side of the continent, separated by a sea, is our opponent, the western border of the Romans."
The news about this world that Li Yuan revealed indifferently made Han Xin stunned. As a person who believed in the world and centered on me, he received education and knowledge since childhood, that only Dongtu was the center of the entire world. Now, Li Yuan actually said that this world may be round, and their route of conquest was actually to circle around this planet, which really scared Han Xin.
"How can we stand? Once we reach the New World, it means we reach the other end of the ball. Wouldn't we stand upside down at that time?" Han Xin's various thoughts flashed in his heart, making him stand upside down in a daze and unable to speak.
——.
When the next day, Li Yuancai woke up, and in the stone house next door, Han Xin had already gotten up early. A confident smile appeared on his face again. The narration of last night seemed irrelevant, but it caused a huge wave in Han Xin's heart.
In the New World, I will set foot on that mysterious land and I will conquer—.
The Qin generals were summoned again. They all looked forward nervously, hoping that the top achievement of capturing the pass would fall on their heads. This was not only their personal thought, but also the intention of the soldiers under their command. However, in the second round of the military council meeting, Li Yuan unexpectedly did not appear, and replaced by General Han Xin.
According to last night's long talk, in terms of the specific tactical arrangement of the second stage, Li Yuan decided to entrust Han Xin with full authority. He did not think much about how to break through the pass and who to send to take on what tasks. With Han Xin, the military god, he did not need to worry too much about the specific military strategy. (To be continued, please search for astronomy, the novel is better and faster!
