Chapter 43

Although Jiang Yu made contributions in both battles against Yan, if one day Jiang Yu could not make it in Zhao State and went to Yan State to surrender, the King of Yan would also take Jiang Yu in.

I remember that Le Yi was an official in Zhao State, and later went to Wei State. He went to Yan State as an envoy of Wei, and was recruited by the King of Yan to help Yan State attack Qi. In half a year, he landed 72 cities in Qi State. Later, he was suspicious of the King of Yan, and returned to Zhao State and was voted for everyone.

This is what fame works.

Ability brings fame, and fame can make people unimpeded within the seven kingdoms.

Speaking of Zhao's two battles to attack Yan, Jiang Yu's strategies are actually very classic.

During the Warring States Period, although countries fought for years, there were classic classics such as Sun Tzu's Art of War. However, Sun Tzu's Art of War was the idea of ​​leading troops to fight, which was regarded as the general outline of the art of war, and there was not much explanation of specific battles.

The strategy proposed by Jiang Xi's two attacks on Yan will inevitably become one of the classic battles in the Warring States Period in the future.

Whether it is using a tired military strategy when having an advantage in military strength or disguised as a trick in the city, it is of great practical value.

In fact, in the Warring States Period, it is not necessarily that there were no sages who used such tactics.

However, Jiang Xu, as a disciple of Zhao State General Xing and Li Mu, has paid attention to many people. When these deeds spread, they will enter the eyes of the world with Jiang Xu himself.

Jiang Xi did not wait long, and Wang Hu led Jiang Xi's thousand personal soldiers to arrive.

Among all the soldiers of the Zhao army, Pang Yan has the right to command, but the personal soldiers of each general can only command the movement.

Even if the Zhao army ambushed the Yan army and then attacked Wuyang, the troops were very tight.

But as long as Jiang Xi himself does not participate in the war, these thousand personal soldiers do not need to participate in the war.

Let them come here just to support and protect Jiang Zi.

"General, you are not injured, are you?" Wang Hu asked with concern standing behind Jiang Xu.

"No."

"Let's go, follow me and come to see the comedy Xin. This old guy was so happy to chase me before!" Jiang Xu replied casually, then a smile appeared on his face.

"Hmph, Ju Xin's old man dares to pursue the general, he is seeking death by himself." Wang Hu sneered, very disdainful of Ju Xin.

"Where did that old guy break through?" Jiang Xu asked.

"I guess I want to break through the front line and go back to Wuyang after breaking through." Wang Hu explained.

"He can't escape."

Thinking of leaving three thousand soldiers and horses as the second line of defense, Jiang Yu was not worried that Ju Xin could escape.

Besides, even if he can really run away, Wuyang City will be over tonight.

"Let's go! Come with me and have a good time." Jiang Xi waved his hand, led a thousand personal soldiers to a high ground, looking down at the battlefield below.

Jiang Yu glanced around and saw thousands of soldiers wearing Yan army armor protecting a general who was fighting fiercely with the Zhao army. The man surrounded by soldiers was Yan general Ju Xin.

"Haha! Ju Xin, I was chasing me so hard, I didn't expect that I would set up an ambush here!"

Jiang Xu didn't say much. At this point, any ridicule was a sign of success. As a winner, Jiang Xu just needed to tell the truth.

"Jiang Yu'er, don't be too proud. A temporary victory or defeat doesn't mean anything."

Ju Xin looked up and glared at Jiang Qi. Although he wanted to go forward and kill Jiang Qi, if he went to kill Jiang Qi at this time, the Yan army would only be divided by Zhao's army and annihilated.

"snort!"

"Get the bow!"

A soldier handed the bow and arrow to Jiang Yu. Jiang Yu bent his bow and shot him at Ju Xin.

"My morale of the general!"

Seeing the cold arrow coming, one of Ju Xin's personal captains hurriedly stepped forward to block Ju Xin's body. He wanted to swing his sword to block the cold arrow, but he lacked his eyesight and could only watch the arrow shoot into his chest.

"Jiang Xier! I will kill you!" Ju Xin's eyes were so bloody that he looked at Jiang Xi with murderous intent.

"Let's talk about it today when you live!" Jiang Sheng laughed.

Jiang Xi did not continue to tease Ju Xin anymore. At this moment, his mood was already in chaos and it was difficult for him to escape under the command of Pang Nuan.

Moreover, this place is a battlefield after all, and Jiang Xi also needs to strictly guard against the Yan army's cold arrows.

"Walk!"

After showing off his might, Jiang Yu took his troops to meet with Pang Nuan.

It is believed that Pang Nuan had already arranged the matter of disguising himself as a fraud in the city at this time, and Jiang Yu still needed to lead the army to prepare for the war to break through Wuyang City at night.

After seeing Pang Nuan, Jiang Qi stepped forward and asked, "General, can everything be arranged?"

"Everything is ready!" When Pang Nuan saw Jiang Qi, he smiled and said with kindness: "Guard Jiang, after you have opened the city gate, you will lead your troops to enter the city in the second wave and occupy the granary and arsenal of Wuyang City. When the Yan army saw that Wuyang City was broken, they would inevitably set fire to the food, grass and weapons. If you see the fire, you will lead your troops to put out the fire."

"Receive the order!"

Pang Nuan has taken care of Jiang Yu. After entering the city in the second wave, he will not have to fight with the Yan army to death, but also gain a lot of credit.

In particular, Pang Nuan handed over the task of occupying the granary and arsenal to Jiang Yu. Jiang Yu only needed to report more war damage after the war and could privately hide a lot of food and weapons.

Simply put, even if the Yan army did not set fire, Jiang Yu would set fire.

Pang Nuan was also reminding Jiang Xi that the Yan army would not have set fires, but kept food and weapons privately.

After all, if the plan to cheat the city was successful, the Zhao army came suddenly and the Yan army did not have the main general present, so they might not be able to react in time.

These are all unspoken rules in the army. Anyway, the occupied food and equipment and weapons must be used for the Zhao army, and hiding some privately is not a big deal.

This time, Pang Nuan ambushed the Yan army, and Pang Nuan transferred 30,000 troops to come and protect Jiang Xi. Except for the personal soldiers under Jiang Xi, the other troops were still in the military camp.

After all, Jiang Yan had already offered advice and seduced the enemy himself, which was the first achievement of this battle. Other generals also needed military merits to improve their military rank and status, so Pang Nuan did not mobilize Jiang Yan's troops.

"Guard Jiang, there are still 35,000 troops in the camp now. You can take my token back to the camp and transfer all the troops." Pang Nuan handed a token to Jiang Yu and ordered: "Remember, the trick of the city can only inform all generals, and no one is allowed to discuss it privately."

"I will obey the order."

After receiving the military order again, Jiang Yu had to return to the military camp to dispatch troops without stopping.

But Jiang Yan himself enjoyed it.

In fact, Pang Nuan is not unable to send other people back to the camp to dispatch troops. Returning to the camp to dispatch troops is just a task. It is not a credit for doing it well. If you do it poorly, you will be punished. But this is something that can enhance the prestige in the army.

After all, Pang Nuan’s token was in Jiang Yu’s hands. Before Jiang Yu returned the token to Pang Nuan, all the 35,000 soldiers in the camp had to obey Jiang Yu’s orders.
