Jingwei and Tian Yan both lay in Chen Mo's arms. Tian Yan said unhappily, "Are you satisfied now?"
Chen Mo nodded: "I know why you are here, don't worry, I will take action!
Moreover, this is also a good training opportunity for us. Elite soldiers can only be trained on a real battlefield!"
A month later, in a valley dozens of kilometers away from Dongjun.
Two armies were confronting each other, one was Wang Ben's army, and the other was the [Shenzhao Army] led by Dian Qing.
In terms of numbers, Wang Ben had 50,000 men, while Dian Qing had only 5,000.
On the cliff, Han Xin murmured, "Five thousand against fifty thousand, can it really succeed?"
Tian Yan also said: "Although Senior Dian Qing's [Shen Zhao Army] has practiced the horizontal training method, they have only been practicing for a short time. I am afraid it is not enough to deal with Wang Ben's army? Isn't this too risky?"
Chen Mo smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if we fail. Aren't there other special forces arranged by Han Xin? What's more, the [Shen Zhao Army] may not lose!"
While they were discussing this, the armies of both sides in the valley below attacked each other.
The Qin crossbow was famous throughout the world. After a round of intensive shooting, many [Shenzhao Army] were seriously injured, but more [Shenzhao Army] fought bravely and killed the enemy without fear of death.
Wang Ben sneered at this: "Oh, the Henglian Army? Don't say you are just beginners, even if you are veterans, you will die here!"
Fire, flooding, poison, there are plenty of ways to deal with you!
Just when Wang Ben was feeling proud, he heard his deputy general exclaim, "How~How is this possible?"
The [Shen Zhao Army] that had been shot and fell to the ground by crossbow arrows suddenly stood up with a red glow and joined the battle sequence.
This is not the most incredible thing. The most incredible thing is that many of the [Shen Zhao Army] who should have been killed by slitting their necks, had their wounds on their necks healed visibly under the red light.
Not only the Qin army below was shocked, but even Han Xin and Tian Yan on the cliff were extremely shocked.
Han Xin and Tian Yan thought: Could this be the reason why Dian Qing came back to life? How could it be so miraculous? No, it was terrifying. Who in the world could resist such an immortal army?
Tian Yan was fine, but the impact on Han Xin was huge. He suddenly felt that the military strategies he was so proud of might have been learned in vain. No matter how many schemes and tricks he had, he would be vulnerable in front of such a large army.
After coming to their senses, the two looked at Chen Mo with eyes full of admiration: keeping so many people alive at the same time, this is the way of God!
"Retreat! Retreat quickly!" Wang Ben saw that there were already one or two thousand casualties on his side, so he hurriedly gave the order.
Although you can defeat the opponent, but the opponent gets up and attacks you the next moment, how can you play? Even a large army will be dragged to death by this group of monsters!
Fire and flooding should be able to deal with this group of monsters, but unfortunately we are not well prepared this time and I am afraid it cannot be implemented. The only option now is to retreat first!
Seeing the Qin army fleeing in panic, the people of the [Shen Zhao Army] were extremely excited and were about to give chase, but they received an order from Chen Mo to stop advancing.
Dian Qing was puzzled and asked, "Master, why don't you pursue the victory?"
"As the saying goes, don't chase a desperate enemy. How do you know they didn't deliberately lure you into a trap? What if they burn you to ashes? I can't save you!" Chen Mo explained.
Dian Qing was a little disappointed: "Ah? If it turns into ashes, it can't be saved?"
Chen Mo rolled his eyes: Do you really think I’m a god?
Seeing that Han Xin and Tian Yan seemed to be deep in thought, Chen Mo was not afraid that they would spread the weakness of the [Shen Zhao Army]. After all, everyone would know about this sooner or later. Moreover, knowing a weakness and being able to actually attack it are two different things. Do you really think that the commander is a good-for-nothing who can be burned or drowned by you?
【Shen Zhao Jing】
A blinding red light appeared, covering the bodies of the killed Qin soldiers. Tian Yan asked in surprise, "What are you doing?"
"There are two ways to destroy the enemy's manpower. One is to really destroy it, and the other is to make the enemy's manpower become my manpower!
And what I am doing now is the latter!" Chen Mo explained.
Han Xin's eyes lit up and he praised, "Your Excellency is wise. I admire you!
In this way, we are effectively picking up thousands of elite soldiers for free!"
Chen Mo smiled and nodded. Then, in front of everyone's witness, all the Qin soldiers who were supposed to be dead, except for those who were chopped to pieces, were resurrected.
A Qin soldier asked in bewilderment: "What's wrong with me?"
"Ah? There are enemies, be on guard!" A Qin soldier also saw the [Shen Zhao Army] and said with a vigilant look.
"No, wasn't I dead? Why am I still alive?" Some Qin soldiers also said in disbelief.
At this moment, Chen Mo's voice, empowered by his inner strength, reached the ears of every Qin soldier: "You are not mistaken, you did die, but now you are resurrected, and it was me who resurrected you!
I'm sure you've seen the magic that happened to the [Shinzhao Army] before? That's right, the same method was used to resurrect you!
Do you think you can defeat such a [Shen Zhao Army]?
Since you can't beat them, then just join us. As long as you choose to join us, you will also be blessed with such magical power!"
Without waiting for anyone to answer, Chen Mo continued, "You have already died in the previous war. You have already served the Qin State loyally. You don't owe the Qin State anything!
Moreover, even if you go back now, do you think Wang Ben will still trust you? He will think you are spies, that you are going back to confuse the army, and he may even behead you in public!
So, think carefully about what choice you want to make! "
Hearing this, many Qin soldiers looked at each other with expressions of struggle, but some felt that what Chen Mo said made sense. If they couldn't win, they should join. It was better than going back to die. And if they refused, they might die before they even got back!
Soon, the first Qin soldier chose to join. After the first, there were two. Soon, all the Qin soldiers chose to join. Those who refused to join were beaten into a bloody mist by Chen Mo on the spot and could not be resurrected!
the other side
Wang Ben's army retreated ten miles before stopping. Everyone looked unhappy. Facing such an immortal army was more demoralizing than suffering a defeat.
Wang Ben noticed this negative emotion at the first time. In order to ease the tension of the army, he rarely lifted the ban on alcohol for one night.
In the handsome tent
Wang Ben cursed: "Wang Li, that stinky boy, the peasant family had such a large army, but he didn't tell me, causing me to suffer such a big loss!
And Shadow Secret Guard and Luowang, aren't they said to be omnipresent? How come they didn't find out such important information at all?"
The deputy general advised: "General, perhaps General Wang Li didn't know that such a large army existed at the time? After all, given the terrifying nature of this army, if they had really taken action at that time, I'm afraid General Wang Li would have suffered even greater losses!
As for the Shadow Secret Guard and Luowang, we cannot control them. For now, we have to find a way to deal with this army. Otherwise, it will be difficult to explain to His Majesty when he blames us later!"
Wang Ben nodded, and then ordered: "Send someone to prepare more hay in case of emergency. I don't believe that the fire can't burn those people to death!"
The deputy general worriedly said: "General, we have stored too much hay. What if the enemy takes the opportunity to use fire attack on us? Then~"
Hearing this, Wang Ben was also shocked. He was only thinking about how to deal with the enemy and forgot that others could also deal with him in the same way. Don't really get yourself into trouble!
Wang Ben thought for a while before saying, "Let's build a canal nearby. There will be enough water for protection. Even if there is a fire, there won't be much damage!"
After the deputy general took the order and left, Wang Ben began to worry again. Should he submit the information about the [Shenzhao Army]?
Once it is presented to His Majesty, will he believe it? After all, even the Shadow Secret Guards and Luowang have not found out about this army. If I report it truthfully without evidence, I am afraid that I will be attacked by my political enemies!
But if I don't report it, what if the Shadow Secret Guards and Luowang find out and accuse me of concealing it?
After thinking for a long time, Wang Ben decided to get rid of this army first. If he could get rid of this army, even if the emperor knew that he had concealed the truth later, he would not blame him!
A few days later
Wang Ben's army met the Shenzhao Army again.
Wang Ben shouted, "You rebels, do you really think that you can deal with my imperial army with some weird tricks? This hay is prepared for you. If you don't want to die, kneel down and surrender honestly, otherwise don't blame me for setting you on fire!"
Seeing more than a dozen carts of hay, Dian Qing showed a trace of fear on his face, but he said: "It's not certain who will be burned to death in the end!"
After he finished speaking, hundreds of archers walked out from behind him, drew their bows and arrows, and shot hundreds of flaming arrows at the hay.
Chapter 141: Psychological Strategy: You don’t want your wife to become someone else’s woman, or your child to call someone else their father, right?
"Kill~"
Seeing the hay being burned, Dian Qing no longer cared and directly led the [Shen Zhao Army] to attack.
An hour later, in a valley
The deputy general looked a little unhappy: "General, we have already pretended to be defeated, so why didn't the [Shenzhao Army] come to pursue us?"
Wang Ben's face was also solemn when he heard this: "I am not afraid of the bravery of the [Shen Zhao Army], I am afraid that they are brave and resourceful!
What a pity! The more you fear something, the more it will come to you. There must be a capable person among this group of rebels!"
Yes, he had burned the hay on purpose for Dian Qing in order to relax the vigilance of the [Shen Zhao Army]. Even the defeat was fake. The real killer move was this valley. There were many soldiers and hay arranged on both sides of the cliff. He only needed to wait for the [Shen Zhao Army] to chase and then burn them to death.
In order to avoid being discovered, he deliberately sacrificed many soldiers, but he didn't expect to get such a result!
The deputy general asked, "General, what should we do next? We can't let our tens of thousands of troops be stopped by the enemy's 5,000 men, right? I'm afraid we won't be able to explain to His Majesty by then!"
“Although I cannot wipe out all of these rebels, I have discovered some of their weaknesses. They don’t have many cavalry and their mobility is not as good as ours!
In this case, we can just bypass them and raid the farmer's camp behind them. I don't believe that all of their 100,000 farmers' disciples are members of the Shenzhao Army!" Wang Ben said coldly.
At the same time, the previous battle site
Chen Mo once again conquered three thousand Qin troops. Together with the previous two thousand, the number of Qin troops had reached five thousand. Chen Mo gave the command to Han Xin, believing that with his talents, he would be able to maximize the effect!
"The next battle depends on you!" Chen Mo said to Han Xin.
Although he was not an expert in offensive strategy, he had experienced many worlds, fought many battles, and developed certain military qualities.
He knew that as long as Wang Ben was not stupid, he would not fight to the death with the Shenzhao Army and would most likely choose to take a detour. The mobility of the Shenzhao Army was indeed not as good as that of the cavalry, so the subsequent battles could only be left to Han Xin.
Han Xin nodded and said with emotion: "I'm afraid Wang Ben never dreamed that he thought the right choice was actually a trap you had prepared for him a long time ago. From the moment he entered the trap, he was doomed to be unable to get out!"
Thinking of this, Han Xin felt more and more that Chen Mo was terrifying. Brave and resourceful were no longer enough to describe him!
Sure enough, just as he said, in the next half month, although Wang Ben successfully bypassed the [Shen Zhao Army], the farmers seemed to be well prepared and launched a scorched earth strategy, and even took advantage of various peculiar terrains to catch them off guard, so that later on, they only dared to rest on the plains and did not dare to spend the night anywhere else.
What they find even more difficult is the food problem.
Inside the Qin army camp, the deputy general looked worried: "General, we don't have much food in the camp. I'm afraid it will only be enough for three days!"
Wang Ben asked sternly, "Where is the army's food and grass?"
"According to the latest news, the army's food supplies were robbed by the Shenzhao Army. I'm afraid we won't get news on the next batch of food supplies for half a month!" When mentioning this, the deputy general looked even more worried.
Bang!
Wang Ben slammed the table and said angrily, "Damn the peasants, damn the [Shenzhao Army], I was wondering why they were clearing the countryside and letting us in, it turns out they wanted to cut off our food supplies, how vicious!"
Logically speaking, food and fodder are of vital importance and are the focus of protection of the army. However, the people of the Shenzhao Army are too difficult to deal with. They cannot be killed, and they cannot run fast with so much food and fodder. In the end, they can only abandon the food and fodder to save their lives.
As if thinking of something, Wang Ben asked, "What about Shadow Secret Guard and Luowang? Do they have any solution?"
"I've contacted them. They said that Mohist and Liusha have been hunting them down, and they can't even protect themselves!" The deputy general shook his head and sighed.
Wang Ben's face was gloomy. "I didn't expect that in such a small Dongjun, the rebels would be so rampant? Are the Shadow Secret Guards and Luowang a bunch of rubbish? We didn't notice anything unusual before, so the rebellion has grown to such a big extent now!"
