Last time, it was said that Wang Qi led 600,000 Qin troops on a campaign, and before leaving, he repeatedly asked YingZheng for gold and silver field property, and his subordinates were puzzled, and Wang Qi told his subordinates that what he wanted was not field property, but a talisman to ensure that he would not end up like a white. The generals were satisfied and convinced, and the army went out.
The news that Wang Qi had led 600,000 Qin troops to come to the crusade could not be concealed, after all, it was impossible for a huge army to cover up its tracks. Although the State of Chu had previously achieved brilliant victories in the war against Qin, after all, there was still an objective gap between the overall national strength and the strong Qin. The army suppressed the frontier, the land of Jingchu, the people's hearts were trembling, and the whole country was mobilized.
The Morale of the Chu army that had just defeated Li Xin's troops was high, and in the face of a strong enemy, the whole army relied on the courage of a bloody force to defend the country and was not afraid at all, although the Qin army was brave and good at war, and Wang Qi used his troops like gods, but at this time, the Chu army under the support of the national mobilization still had the determination and strength to fight the enemy to the death.
Many times, morale and courage can be a weapon of victory
However, Wang Qi led a large army to come, but he was not in a hurry to report the humiliation of Li Xin's defeat before the battle, cautiously building fortifications, having an advantage in strength, and the Qin army, which was good at attacking and raiding, slowly and leisurely shrunk the formation and posed a defensive posture. The fierce and aggressive Qin army ignored the repeated challenges of the Chu army under Wang Qi's arrangement, and it seemed that they were the weak side.
The Qin army, which was originally superior in strength, took a defensive position, and the Chu army naturally did not dare to attack the enemy who had built fortifications too aggressively. In addition to normal deployment and training, this huge Qin army could not see the aggressiveness it had before when attacking the various princes, as if the Tiger and Wolf Division had suddenly changed its taste, just like their chief officer and veteran General Wang Qi, warm and thick.
This Qin army was not exactly running to the Chu state for sightseeing, while maintaining sufficient defensive strength to confront the Chu army, it began to carry out a competition to enhance the physique such as catapulting and long jump, and Wang Qi, in addition to asking about the logistics of the troops every day, seemed to be the only thing that was more concerned about this seemingly boring troop competition.
The Chu army was getting more and more confused, and the sharpness of defeating the Qin army was fading day by day, and they were bitter about this strange war that was tense at the moment but could not be vented. A stream of flesh and blood courage gradually fell silent with the passage of time, and the invisible force that could not fight the enemy to the death but was always under the pressure of the huge war began to destroy the Chu army's will to fight.
The Qin army was only defensive, while the Chu army's troops gathered from all over the country began to appear chaotic, not knowing the future, and the frequent movements that could not see the prospects were just to carry out a deadly fight with the Qin people, while the Qin army maintained training, combat readiness, and constantly suppressed the desire to fight.
Avoid its sharp edge, hit its inertia
Wang Qi seemed to have forgotten that this war was supposed to be a war of revenge to shock the princes.
A full year has passed. The State of Qin had a stable military environment and strong national strength to the fullest advantage in this confrontation, and although the elite troops of the State of Qin were led by Wang Qi to march, no prince dared to challenge and attack the State of Qin at this time. Although Shang Jun died, his decrees also made the entire Qin state politically stable and strict.
However, the situation in the Chu state was not good. Perhaps the gushing water of the Yangtze River and the Huai River can give birth to Zhong Xiu's humanities and romantic poems, but from the perspective of war, the Chu people lack sufficient willpower and cohesion for the protracted war under high pressure. The troops are exhausted under the high-intensity preparation, and the control ability of the generals over the army and the monarch over the generals is declining.
The continuous expansion of the Qin state over the years made the country have sufficient strategic depth and buffer, the granaries of Bashu continued to transport sufficient supplies to the front line, and the stable north of the Qin people became the most vulnerable defensive area of the Chu state. The 600,000 Qin army maintained a containment of the main force of the Chu army, while the Chu army had to mobilize troops to take turns in defense when its strength was weak.
A year's time was not long for the Qin army stationed there, because they only needed to ensure the intensity of daily tactical training every day and organize a catapult competition. For the Chu army, this year also consumed the sharpness and bloodiness of the original victory over Li Xin's troops. The passive deployment of defenses that had lost its strategic initiative gradually caused chaos in the military system of the entire Chu state.
What Wang Zhai did before and after can be said to have seen through both the war and life
A troop mobilization of the famous Chu general Xiang Yan was finally discovered by Wang Qi, and the Qin army that had been recuperating for a long time suddenly attacked, and the tired and chaotic Chu army collapsed at a touch, Xiang Yan was killed in battle, the King of Chu was captured, and the Chu state with thousands of miles was now classified as a county of strong Qin. This huge war of nearly a million troops from both sides ended in such a calm form.
Behind this war, Wang Qi's control over the situation and the morale of the army was amazing, avoiding its sharpness and attacking its inertia. Behind his repeated demands for gold and silver from the fields was the most thorough understanding of Junxin. It can be said that Wang Qi has seen through the war and also seen through life.
In fact, the tactic of suppressing people and maximizing the use of their own advantages, no matter in what field, has an irresistible and powerful force, avoiding the real and the virtual, and the rounded Taoist philosophical thought is enough to become an effective way to solve all problems in the new era. And bundling interests and creating demand to gain trust is a superb skill in today's interpersonal communication.
