The Great Wei Empire in the Warring States Period

At Qingshi Pass, the guard Tian Fang looked at the densely packed Wei-Han coalition army below, gritted his teeth and said: "Order the entire army not to go out of the pass to fight at will! Wait for the arrival of reinforcements!" As soon as the voice fell, a messenger ran over and said: "General, more than 2,000 people have escaped. They heard that the leader of the coalition army was Pang Juan, so they immediately became deserters!" Tian Fang shouted when he heard it: "What! Hurry up and get them all arrested, and those who are the main culprits will be beheaded!" - Yes!

In the tent of the coalition commander, Pang Juan said to all the generals: "Everyone, we have already attacked Qingshi Pass, and the goal has been basically achieved. Order the whole army to continue to rest here. Do not attack the city without my order these days!"

Kong Ye, the commander of the Han army, said: "We have more than 100,000 coalition troops, and the defenders of Qingshi Pass are less than 10,000. Why don't we launch a strong attack? My Han crossbowmen are the strongest in the world!"

Pang Juan shook his head and thought: The entire Han Dynasty can only produce crossbowmen, and nothing else. Whether it is a military general or a civil official, Han Dynasty is useless. It seems that Han Dynasty can only rely on crossbowmen. Pang Juan said: "The Art of War says: Attack a city only when you have no choice. Now our army is not going to break through the Qingshi Pass, but just to seize all the land west of the Great Wall of Qi. It is not to capture the capital of Qi. So my idea is to stay here and wait for the enemy's reinforcements and the army attacking Yan to arrive. Then we will lead the army of Qingshi Pass out and annihilate it. In this way, Qi will agree to our request! We are not here to destroy Qi, but only to attack Qi. If we want to destroy Qi, then our army must break through Qingshi Pass and go straight to Linzi, the capital of Qi, but we are not destroying Qi!"

As soon as Pang Juan finished speaking, a messenger ran in and said: "General, secret report!" Pang Juan picked up the secret report and read it and said: "Everyone, Qi has sent Tian Pan as a general to lead 40,000 troops to support Qingshi Pass! The next battle will be cruel, I hope you can do your job!"

Kong Ye, the commander of the Han army, asked in confusion: "Who is Tian Pan? ”

Pang Juan said: "Tian Pan is a general of Qi State. He won the first place in the debate in Jixia Academy. He has a very good reputation in Qi State. People in Linzi of Qi State respectfully call him Panzi!"

Kong Ye, the commander of the Han army, laughed and said: "This man is just good at talking. His ability to use troops is definitely inferior to ours! He came here just to talk about war! When I led the Han army to the border of Qi State, he, a small Tian Pan, was just... He is just a little boy!"

The deputy general of the Wei army, Gongzi Ang, said: "General Kong, don't underestimate this man. He studied under the old general of Qi, Lu Jing, and served as a general under him for several years! His ability to use troops is definitely not inferior to ours!"

Kong Ye, the chief general of the Han army, laughed when he heard that it was Lu Jing: "Thinking back then, when Han and Zhao attacked Qi together, Lu Jing was beaten back by the armies of our two countries. What is there to worry about for a defeated general!”

Pang Juan and Gongzi Ang looked at the Han army commander Kong Ye as if he were a fool. It seemed that the country that contributed the most in that war should be Zhao. Han was just following Zhao's ass and fighting at a distance. Moreover, the reason why Lu Jing was defeated was because the troops in his hands were almost pitiful. 70,000 people fighting 10,000 people, everyone knew who would win, and at that time, all the soldiers in Lu Jing's hands were recruits. Your 20,000 archers in Han could kill a large number of those recruits if they just shot a few waves! Moreover, on the entire battlefield at that time, the Qi army still broke up the Han army's crossbow formation several times!

Gongzi Ang said again: "Everyone, since Qi sent Tian Pan to deal with our army, I think we should station our army's camp 30 miles away from Qingshi Pass, and mobilize the chariot troops to harass the cities in the southern section of Qi's Great Wall, burn all the farmland south of Qi's Great Wall, and prevent Qi from getting food and grass! And mobilize 10,000 Wei Wuzu to capture Pingyin City, so that the safety of our army's flank is guaranteed, and there is no need to worry about the flank attack when we fight the Qi army later! "

After listening, Pang Juan nodded and said: "Okay, let's do it according to General Gongzi Ang's method!" As soon as the voice fell, the marching commander Kong Ye said: "I think, then Pingyin City will be taken care of by our Han army. There is no need for Wei Wuzu to capture such a small Pingyin City!"

Gongzi Ang saw that he was also in his sixties, so he advised: "General Kong, the Qi army in Pingyin City is estimated to be close to 20,000 people! This Pingyin City is also one of the important cities to protect the Great Wall of Qi!"

When Kong Ye heard that the Qi army had more than 20,000 people, he hurriedly said: "Since the Qi army has more than 20,000 people, according to the division of land, this Pingyin City originally belongs to Wei State. Since it belongs to Wei State, then your country's army will take care of it. I will send 5,000 crossbowmen to support the march!"

Pang Juan wanted to beat him up after hearing this. You, Han, just need to send some crossbowmen to shoot arrows from behind. The army of Wei should be the vanguard to attack the city and seize the land. Kong Ye seemed to see Pang Juan's dissatisfied look, and hurriedly said: "Send another 5,000 armored soldiers to attack the city with the Wei army!"

Pang Juan did not say anything, but said to Zhang Xun: "Zhang Xun, you take 10,000 Wei Wuzu and 10,000 Han troops to attack Pingyin City. Remember, you must capture this city! Zhang Xun bowed and said, "Yes, General!"

Pang Juan said again, "Pang Ying, follow General Zhang Xun to attack Pingyin City!" Pang Ying also bowed and said, "Yes, General!"

At night, Tian Fang stood on the tower and looked at the coalition camp. A messenger ran over and said, "General, the vanguard of the reinforcements has arrived, totaling 7,000 people. The main general who came to support is called Tian Pan. The main force will arrive tomorrow morning!"

When Tian Fang heard that it was Tian Pan, he was immediately worried. He felt that the king was playing a trick on him, because he had also heard of Tian Pan's reputation. He had won the first place in the debate at the Jixia Academy. He actually called a man with good words to come and command the army. He felt that this pass was possible.It can't be defended.

The messenger saw that his general looked a little unhappy, so he asked: "General, is Tian Pan not good at using troops?"

Tian Fang sighed and said: "This Tian Pan is just good at talking. He once won the first place in the debate at Jixia Academy. I don't know if he has learned the art of war. I only know that he studied under Mencius at Jixia Academy. I don't know if his art of war is good, but I know that he has learned Confucianism very well. And this person is just in his thirties!"

The messenger listened After finishing his own general's words, he tremblingly took out a king's order from the cloth bag and said: "General, the main general guarding Qingshi Pass this time is not you, but Tian Pan who came to support! So the king ordered you to hand over the military power of the pass to Tian Pan!"

Tian Fang took the king's order and sighed, saying: "I hope the king's decision is correct, don't let someone who talks big and doesn't talk big come!"

In the early morning, a mighty army marched towards Qingshi Pass, with dense battle flags, and the leading flag had a big word "Pan" written on it. Tian Pan stood on the chariot and asked the deputy general Tian Ju: "Tian Ju, are there any battle reports from the front line?" Tian Ju said: "Yes, but they are all some news requesting reinforcements to arrive quickly!" Tian Pan asked again: "Doesn't the battle report say how many enemy troops there are? And the enemy's recent movements. And who is the enemy's main general?"

Tian Ju shook his head and said: "No, they are all some irrelevant news. I don't know what the scouts on the front line are doing! There is not even a little news about the enemy, all are some news requesting reinforcements and food! General, do you want to tell Your Majesty, are you punishing the commander on the front line?"

Tian Pan thought for a moment and said, "No need. After all, we don't know what's happening on the front line. What if others are also in trouble? Let's discuss how to defeat the enemy after we arrive!"

A chariot came galloping, and the soldiers on it said, "General, Qingshi Pass is not far ahead!" Tian Pan ordered, "All troops, speed up and enter the pass!"

Inside Qingshi Pass, Tian Pan and Tian Ju entered the commander's house of Qingshi Pass. When Tian Fang, the guard of Qingshi Pass, saw Tian Pan coming, he handed the military token in his hand to Tian Pan. Tian Pan took the military token and looked at it and said, "General Tian Fang, who is the enemy's main general?" Tian Fang saw that Tian Pan and Tian Ju looked like scholars, and immediately felt that the two were a little unreliable, but still said, "The enemy's main general is Pang Juan, the general of Wei. The Wei army has about 100,000 people, among which there are 30,000 Wei Wuzu. The main general of the Han army is Kong Ye, with a number of about 40,000 people. The main general of this coalition is Pang Juan!" Tian Pan was also shocked when he heard the word Pang Juan. He didn't expect that Wei would directly move out their general to deal with Qi. Tian Pan thought that Wei sent Gongzi Ang this time, because he saw the news from Pinglu that Gongzi Ang led the troops, and he didn't know that it was Pang Juan who led the troops. Tian Fang saw Tian Pan's face full of shock, so he asked, "General, didn't the enemy's main general in the battle report you received say that Pang Juan was not?"

Tian Pan finally understood whyWhat, said: "The Wei army must be divided into two groups. One group, led by Gongzi Ang, led a small number of troops to attack Pinglu, while Pang Juan led a large army to directly surround Wuyan. The messenger sent by Wuyan was killed by Pang Juan's people, so the news of Wuyan City did not reach the capital! Therefore, we only know that the main general of the coalition is Gongzi Ang!"

Tian Pan said to everyone: "Everyone, order the whole army to defend and not go out, no one is allowed to go to the battle privately! Those who disobey the order will be executed!" - Yes!

Pingyin City, Pingyin defender thought that the Wei army would not attack him, but when he went to the tower to check, he found that the city was full of enemy troops. The Pingyin defender was shocked when he saw it and shouted loudly: "The whole army is ready for defense!" ... ...
