"Revenge" "Revenge" The generals on the left and right were all angry like fire, raising their arms and waving their fists, and the roar of revenge echoed in the heavens and the earth.
Looking at the city again, the banner of the word "Han" was flaunting and mighty, and the potter turned around and returned to the camp.
Although the potter had a heart of revenge in his heart, he wished to capture Hou Jing alive immediately and break him into pieces, but he was not carried away by hatred and rashly launched an attack on Zhending City.
Because the potters are well aware that the situation is different now.
When Zhending City fell, the Han army was equivalent to gaining a foothold, and it could rely on Zhending City, attacking and retreating.
Not to mention, there are still more than 100,000 Han soldiers around the city, in this case, if the pottery merchants forcibly attack, they can only ask for their own hardships.
So the potters stood still and waited for Han Xinle Yi and other civil and military generals to lead more than 200,000 main infantry corps to come to rendezvous.
Three days later, the main army arrived, the two armies converged, and the number of Great Wei troops assembled on the Zhending line had reached 350,000. 350,000 troops, this number, can be said to be the largest number of troops in the Great Wei Empire at one time on the same battlefield.
In this army, there are not only wise and resourceful people like Liu Ji and Chen Ping, but also commander-level teachers like Han Xin and Le Yi, but also Xiang Yu, Lian Po, Huo Quzhi, Li Mu, Luo Cheng, Chen Qingzhi, Ma Chao, Xu Huang, Qin Qiong, Wei Chigong, Li Guang, Hou Yi, Fan Hao and many other generals.
It can be said that most of the elite soldiers and fierce generals of the Great Wei Empire have gathered here.
In terms of troops, the Wei army was more than 200,000 more than the Han army, which seemed to have an advantage, but the pottery merchants knew that the real strength comparison was not the case.
Although Liu Bei's total number of soldiers and horses was 200,000 less than him, the number of cavalry reached 80,000, and all of them were elite Youyan iron cavalry, and the combat effectiveness of his cavalry was even better than that of Xianbei iron cavalry.
The terrain of the Zhending line is a large plain with a flat river, and its terrain is more conducive to cavalry galloping than the mountainous terrain of Bingzhou.
And this means that Liu Bei's 80,000 iron cavalry can exert a more powerful combat effectiveness than Mao Dun's 100,000 iron cavalry, which is enough to offset the advantage of 200,000 infantry in the Great Wei.
This is not a one-and-all war, at least as it stands, but a war of equal strength.
At night, the Wei army camped.
In the imperial tent, Liu Ji, Chen Ping, and Han Xin Leyi and other resourceful people all gathered in the imperial tent to discuss the plan to break the enemy.
"The minister thinks that His Majesty should lead the main force of 200,000 to confront the Han army on the Zhending line, and the minister is willing to lead 150,000 partial troops to the north from Nanpi to attack the flank of the Han army along Bohai County, and flank the enemy on both sides."
Le Yi said his strategy.
The voice fell, but Chen Ping shook his head and said: "Our army only has more than 20,000 cavalry, while the Han army has 80,000 iron cavalry. ” Chen Ping was reasonable, and said the greatest advantage of the cavalry in the Hebei Plain, and Le Yi also felt that it was inappropriate, and fell silent for a while.
"The Hebei Plain is too vast and flat, which is conducive to the cavalry's plagiarism and rear, and the location of this battle is destined not to be on our side."
Liu Ji also sighed.
Plagiarism is the way back These four words, in the mind of the potter, kept dangling, and the potter was deeply disgusted.
He was a little helpless, no way, who called the Hebei Plain too vast, even if every city was impregnable, the iron cavalry of the Han army had enough space to intersperse, and easily raided his grain road.
Unless the city is attacked, it is difficult to win the field battle.
But what is fatal is that over the years, Liu Bei has not only paid attention to the development of cavalry, but also trained a considerable number of infantry, and there are nearly 60,000 infantry in the south this time.
The infantry is used to defend the captured city, and the cavalry is used to penetrate the flanks and rear of the own army, attack the grain routes, and force the army to constantly retreat, so that Liu Bei can encroach step by step and constantly push the battle line to the south.
The potter had a hunch that if he couldn't quickly take Zhending City and fell into a stalemate, Liu Bei would definitely use the shameless tactic of cavalry attacking the grain road to drag down his army of 350,000.
"If you want to break the truth quickly, it's obviously unrealistic, and you can't ensure that the back road will not be robbed, this battle is indeed not easy to fight" The potter's fingertips tapped on the case, and his brows condensed into a Sichuan character.
In the big tent, there was a moment of silence.
"Plagiarism is the back road, is it plagiarism the back road" Han Xin, who had been silent for a long time, muttered to himself, and his thoughts flew like a tide.
Suddenly, a glimmer of light suddenly flashed in Han Xin's eyes, as if he had suddenly realized something.
Then he smiled, arched his hand to the potter, and played with the taste in his tone: "Your Majesty, in this battle, we can't just think about being beaten passively, we also have to seize the initiative, the big-eared thief can copy our back road, why can't we copy his back road." ” As soon as this remark came out, the spirit of the potter was immediately lifted.
Before the potter could speak, Chen Ping had already smiled bitterly and said: "The Han army can copy our back road, it is because they have many cavalry, and our army only has 20,000 cavalry, and it seems a little reluctant to copy the enemy's back road." ” "That's not necessarily, the Han army has the advantage of the Han army, and we also have our own advantages, the key is to avoid the enemy's strengths and attack the enemy's enemy."
Han Xin looked confident, and the last ten words deliberately accentuated his tone.
"Avoid the enemy's strengths, attack the enemy's shortcomings" The potter's thoughts were racing, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said in surprise: "Han Qing, what do you mean?"
Before he could finish his words, Han Xin had already seen that the potter had guessed his plan, so he nodded with a sly smile.
And these people present are all people with extraordinary resourcefulness, followed by Liu Ji, Chen Ping and Le Yi, and their eyes also burst out with surprise and enlightenment.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that General Han's plan is feasible."
Le Yi arched his hand.
The potter nodded, looked at the other two, and asked with a smile, "Berwyn, what do you two think?"
"The minister seconded the proposal."
Liu Ji replied simply.
Chen Ping also nodded and said: "General Han's plan is very good, but this plan must be implemented as soon as possible, so as not to let the big-eared thief see the clues, after all, Zhuge Liang Pang Tong and Sima Yi and others under his command are not fuel-efficient lamps." ” syllable Tao Shang slapped the case and said happily: "Since this is the case, then what is there to hesitate, I have already made up my mind, so I will use Han Qing's plan to let Liu Bei also taste the taste of being exploded." ” His bold words were originally the blood of the ministers who listened to them, but when they heard the last sentence, they were all stunned.
"Your Majesty, forgive the foolishness of the minister, dare to ask what is the popping chrysanthemum" Chen Ping asked curiously.

The potter was stunned, then realized that he was excited for a while, and used words that should not be used, and then looked at the four resourceful people present, all of them were full of curiosity, and they waited for the potter to explain to them what this "popping chrysanthemum" meant.
"Ahem, this popping chrysanthemum, it's more troublesome to explain, let's drink first, I did it first, good wine, good wine" For seven days, the potters did not move and did not take the initiative to attack Zhending City.
What the potters do every day is to build a large number of buildings in the camp, make ladders, and pose as if they are about to attack the city in a big way.
Zhending east of the city, the Han army camp.
A corps of about 20,000 men drove along the northeast avenue to the outside of Zhending City and entered the camp.
This army, led by the general Wen Chou and the strategist Pang Tong, was originally intended as a partial division to attack the counties of Bohai County in the east, in order to contain part of the Wei army.
At present, the 350,000 troops of the Wei army have gathered on the front line of Zhending City, and in order to deal with it, Liu Bei transferred all his troops to the front line of Zhending, and Wen Chou's department was only one of several armies that were transferred back.
In the imperial tent, Wen Chou and Pang Tong entered the account together and handed over the soldiers and horses to Liu Bei.
Liu Bei comforted the two of them a few words, and then asked them to go down and rest first.
Wen Chou retreated, but Pang Tong arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, at the moment, our army and the pottery thief have formed a confrontation on the Zhending line, I don't know what Your Majesty has planned."
"Well, this time, I summoned Shiyuan to come back, just because I want to hear your opinion."
Liu Bei knew that Pang Tong had something to say, so he ordered Pang Tong to be given a seat.
Pang Tong sat still, did not beat around the bush, and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, the minister has heard on the way to come, although the pottery thief destroyed the Qin State, but its domestic Taiping Road has revived, that Hong Xiuquan claims to be the king of heaven, the founding of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, in just a few months, the attack on Lingnan, the minister is expected to be able to capture the entire Jiaozhou in a few months." ” As soon as the words turned, Pang Tong raised his hand to guide the face, "Taiping Dao is determined in the world, they will never stop at Jiaozhou, after capturing Jiaozhou, they will inevitably wave their troops to the north and take Jingzhou directly, at that time, the fire in the backyard of the pottery thief will definitely be in turmoil in the country, and the morale of the army will be seriously damaged, as long as we can consume it with the pottery thief until that time, it will be the time when we will attack and break the deadlock in one fell swoop."
The more Liu Bei listened, the more excited he became, he couldn't stop nodding, and said with a smile: "Shiyuan and Kong Ming are worthy of being classmates, your analysis is exactly the same as Kong Ming, well, according to this view, this Hong Xiuquan has indeed helped me a lot." ” Pang Tong looked at Zhuge Liang, and Zhuge Liang nodded slightly to him.
Pang Tong smiled at him: "Kong Ming, I don't know if you still remember the set of formations that the two of us studied at the beginning?"
Formations Liu Bei's expression was blank and he looked at Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liang looked at him strangely, "Shiyuan, have you already made a breakthrough?"
The corners of Pang Tong's mouth raised a smug smile, and he took out something from his sleeve, "In the past few months, in my spare time, I have integrated the gossip array you taught me into the set of formations we studied, and we have continuously improved it, and finally completed this array." ” Zhuge Liang was overjoyed, jumped up, handed Pang Tong the scroll in his hand, and unfolded it to study it carefully.
After a while, Zhuge Liang's handsome face bloomed with a happy smile, and he exclaimed: "Shiyuan, Shiyuan, I really have you, I didn't expect you to be able to fuse the Bagua Array with this array so seamlessly, it's really wonderful." ” "It turns out that the two of you have joined forces to create some clever tactics" Liu Bei was even more curious.
At this time, Zhuge Liang waved his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the gossip array of the ministers was broken by the pottery thief, and the minister was deeply ashamed, so he studied with Shi Yuaner for many years, and finally created an immortal array. ” Liu Bei was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked: "I don't know what kind of magical formation you have created" isjgy:
