Chapter 148: Can’t Avoid the Fight
"General Han Yue, what do you think?"
In the big tent, Han Yue, the commander-in-chief of the Korean army, was thinking about how to deal with it, but unexpectedly, Gongsun Qi's voice sounded in his ears.
After a moment of sluggishness, Han Yue slowly stood up from her seat with a calm expression on her face as everyone around her looked at her.
"Generals." After giving a slight salute to the generals below, Han Yue said calmly to Gongsun Qi above: "General Gongsun, I think our army should not go out to fight the Qi army at this moment."
As soon as Han Yue's point of view came to an end, the surrounding coalition generals who had just stood up to ask for a fight immediately couldn't help but look at each other.
After a few breaths, the leader of the Song Army, who was hidden among the crowd, slowly came to Gongsun Qi and bowed.
"The general doesn't understand why General Han Yue doesn't agree to go to war?"
Facing the question from the Song Army general, Han Yue did not give a direct answer. Instead, he asked him: "General, does he know about the Battle of Changshao?"
"Of course, in the Battle of Changshao, the Lu army defeated the strong with the weak, which is praised by people all over the world. As a military strategist, the general will naturally know this battle."
"good."
"Since the general knows about this battle, he should also know what Master Cao of Lu once said."
As he spoke, Han Yue moved lightly, and in the blink of an eye he was in front of General Lu, one of the protagonists of that war.
"Fighting requires courage. One burst of strength will weaken again, and three times it will be exhausted."
Looking at the general of the Lu army in front of him, Han Yue said unhurriedly: "The Qi army today is very similar to the Qi army back then. They also captured cities one after another and their morale was also high."
"Then why don't we learn from the Lu army back then, but instead go out to fight at this time and face the Qi army with high morale?"
"I wonder if the general thinks what I said is reasonable?"
"What General Han Yue said is very reasonable."
As Han Yue used the glorious achievements of his ancestors as an example, the leader of the Lu Army standing in front of him was naturally very proud.
After expressing his agreement with Han Yue's words, the Lu army commander immediately stepped forward and said to Gongsun Qi who was sitting on the throne: "General Qi, I just didn't think well. I really shouldn't do it at this moment."
Go out to fight the Qi army."
Han Yue looked at the general of the Lu army who stood on his side without hesitation, then looked at the somewhat embarrassed generals of the Song and Wei armies, and finally moved his eyes to Gongsun Qi, who was sitting in the position of the general.
"Generals, there is another reason why I think we should not go out to fight the Qi army at this moment, and that is what General Gongsun told me yesterday."
"The camp where grain, grass and baggage are stored has been captured by the Wei army's light cavalry. The Qi army must be worried. This is one of the reasons why the Qi army sent a letter of war today."
"But what I want to remind you generals is..."
Halfway through the words, Han Yue's voice suddenly became louder, "This is also the time when the Qi army is at its strongest."
"The Qi army at this moment is like a wounded tiger. It is stronger than before and more prone to madness. If you are not careful in fighting the Qi army at this moment, it will lead to the most violent attack."
"Since we already know that Qi Jun is like this, why don't we wait until the blood slowly flows out from the wound, and until the tiger gradually changes from crazy to weak?"
"color!"
As soon as Han Yue finished speaking, a cheer sounded in the tent, and everyone's eyes followed the direction of the sound.
The person cheering was none other than Gongsun Qi, the leader of the coalition.
Gongsun Qi, who had already stood up from his position as commander, glanced at Han Yue with admiration, and then slowly came to the front of the coalition generals present.
"Generals, what do you think of General Han Yue's words?"
All the coalition generals who had fallen silent just now stood up one after another and expressed their inner attitudes.
"The final general believes that what General Han Yue said is absolutely true."
"This is not a good time to go out to fight the Qi army."
…
Listening to the sounds ringing in his ears, Gongsun Qi glanced at Han Yue with a hint of smile, and the other person bowed in response.
After their eyes met, Gongsun Qi's eyes suddenly became serious when he looked at the general in front, and his whole body was full of majesty.
"Everyone will obey the order."
"The end will be here."
"My general orders that from now on, allied soldiers will guard the camp and not leave the camp to meet the enemy."
"Follow orders."
…
"Sima..."
As the call rang out in the tent, a figure appeared in front of the coalition leader Gongsun Qi.
"What's the matter?"
Gongsun Qi did not raise his head to the general standing in front of him. In response, he slightly opened the bamboo slips in his hand.
Seeing his general's calm expression, the anger in the Wei army general who had just returned from the camp gate seemed to have weakened a lot.
However, he still reported to Gongsun Qi with dissatisfaction on his face: "General Qi, the Qi army sent people to scold me in front of the camp gate again, and the scolding was very unpleasant."
"Just let them scold you."
Putting the bamboo slip in his hand on several cases and holding another scroll in his hand, Gongsun Qi slowly raised his head.
"They have been scolding us for more than half a month. Have our officers and soldiers been damaged at all? But if we can't win a battle, it's just a matter of words. Let them go."
"It would be fine if they insulted us, but they said Sima..."
The Wei general wanted to continue speaking, but when he thought of those unspeakable words, he couldn't say anything.
"When they heard that they insulted Sima, the generals and soldiers were all filled with righteous indignation. They all held their breath and wanted to kill Qi's majestic army on the battlefield."
"This is not the time to start a war yet. Go down immediately and restrain the soldiers. No one can leave the camp without a military order."
"Here."
The Wei general in front wanted to say something more, but when he heard that Gongsun Qi had given the order, he had no choice but to bow and obey and walked out of the tent.
Seeing his figure disappearing into the tent, Gongsun Qi's face immediately showed a look of satisfaction, "The military spirit is available!"
…
Just as the Wei general in the Chinese army's tent went to carry out Gongsun Qi's order, the shouts and curses outside the Wei army camp could not stop being heard.
However, for Gongsun Qi, who did not take Qi Jun's insults to heart, Qi Jun's move to provoke the general was not completely effective.
Even if those Qi troops outside the camp talked about it, they only received angry looks from the Wei soldiers, and there was no sign of going to war at all.
Looking at the closed door of the Wei army camp in the distance, and then at his comrades who were yelling and scolding like clowns, they heard a Qi sergeant ask in a low voice to his comrades.
"Can you tell me whether the general's method will work?"
"I see, it's just one word, difficult."
The comrades who were also looking at the front heard another Qi soldier reply: "We have been shouting for more than half a month. At first, the Wei army would yell back, but now there is no reaction at all."
"I think it's impossible to scold the Wei army just by yelling. Maybe the general is suffering from a headache in the Chinese army's tent at the moment."
