The Qin army had a total of 40,000 cavalry, and the mud made it inconvenient to run for the cavalry, making it difficult to exert the true power of the cavalry. The sun was sunny, and the mud would dry out in one or two days. The wide and flat fields would become the best battlefield for the cavalry.

It is not without reason that Peng Zong was worried that the astronomical counselors of the shogunate had reported that it would be sunny in the next few days. As expected, the sky began to clear up in the afternoon of the next day. On that day, the Qin army marched fifteen miles forward, and the two armies were only seventeen or eight miles apart. Lu Lijing could see the camp clearly without using his naked eyes.

The next day, the Qin army did not move, but the two armies repelled cavalry and fought on the mud of seventeen or eight miles. The Qin army restrained the scale of cavalry war, and the Chu army was unwilling to leave the existing positions and stand on the pile of gunpowder they buried. When the cavalry war expanded to hundreds of cavalry, both sides shouted to withdraw their troops, leaving enough space between the camps.

The next day after the cavalry battle, the Qin army advanced again, and the camp was four miles away when they set up camp. This time, not to mention the two sides repelled cavalry, the soldiers standing guard on the camp could also see the enemy soldiers on the opposite side. Fortunately, these soldiers could not leave their positions and could not rush over to fight with the Qin people.

The decisive battle may be tomorrow. The generals of the two armies became extremely solemn at this time, and the barracks became quieter and quieter. There was no more noise and noise from the past. Instead, the quarrels in the shogunate became more and more intense.

Given that the last time I saw the Qin army array divided into two formations fifty steps apart, the Chu army strategists were worried that the Qin people were defeated in the front and the back formation would still be held. At that time, the Chu army no longer had a back against Shashui, and 40,000 Qin cavalry could hit the side and replay the undefeated situation in the battle of Xiangcheng. The best way to resist the cavalry is to send their own cavalry, which means that the Chu army's cavalry may not be used to pursue the Qin army's defeated army, and the pursuit will be completed by infantry; it also means that infantry cannot wear too heavy armor, and it is best to wear only one piece of breastplate and an iron armor.

The cavalry were naturally unwilling to do so, and the shogunate strategists had to convince the jockey Sima and told them that this was the only good strategy. And if they could defeat the current enemy cavalry, they could also join the pursuit of the Qin infantry, and they were not impossible to pursue them. However, everyone knew that the Qin cavalry was twice as good as their own, so it was not easy to defeat the enemy cavalry. The cavalry of the two armies would probably continue to fight and no longer intervened in the battle between infantry.

The Qin army's shogunate has been in a helpless state these days. It is known how our side will arrange the Chu army. There will inevitably be some responses in the decisive battle, and all arrangements will probably fail. But the strategists dare not easily change the previous arrangements. These arrangements are targeted. If they are changed, how can they defeat the Chu army's witchcraft? How can they resist the Chu army's spear formation? Changes should not be the debate among strategists. This issue has no result until the dawn of dawn the next day.

During the Ming Dynasty, the Qin army made rice. Meng Tian, ​​who seemed to sleep peacefully for a night, actually never sleeps overnight, was promoted to the tent early. The generals of each army, more than 30 chief lieutenants, and when the cavalry lieutenants entered the tent, Meng Gong disappeared. After the meeting was completed, Meng Gong was still missing. Meng Tian finally couldn't help it and ordered his left and right to say, "Summon Meng Gong."

"Summon Meng Gong." As soon as the shouts in the tent sounded, Meng Gong's voice came through the tent: "I am here."

After a few days of rest, Meng Gong, who was covered in blood, walked into the shogunate like a bloodshot wind. All the generals and lieutenants looked at him and the boards carried by the counselors behind him, and wax was used to stick to the array of Qin and Chu armies.

"How?" Meng Tian didn't ask anything else, he was asking about the array.

"My dearest thought it was OK," Meng Gong replied calmly. "My dearest thought that the formation of Jing people is a formation of breaking the attack, not a formation of hooking attack, so..."

At this time, the strategist behind him took two steps forward, and Meng Tian saw the array on the chip plate. He did not look at the details, but saw the outline of his own array. The width of the array was significantly shortened. It used to be three thousand columns and one hundred rows, but now it is not like this. The array is obviously shorter than three thousand columns, and it is not much wider than the Chu army's spear-blasting array.

"However, if the Jing people are arrayed in a fifteen-row array, our army is only two thousand wide, so we can attack my side." Xu Zhan, a strategist who opposed the shortening of the formation, also walked up to him and told Meng Tian in detail the shortcomings of such array.

Meng Gong was worried that the seventy rows of the front formation would be defeated by the Chu army's spear formation, so he thickened it to one hundred rows, but he was unwilling to abandon the thirty rows of the rear army, so he could only reduce the number of rows of the army formation and make it shorter. Only by shortening can he strengthen the front formation with the saved soldiers.

The military formation is heavy and difficult to be easily defeated, but the military formation is too heavy and easy to be attacked by the enemy. The 10,000 cavalry that were originally arranged in the middle of the military formation have not been strengthened and weakened. Only five thousand Qin cavalry were arranged in the middle of the military formation to attack the Chu army's artillery formation, and the remaining 35,000 cavalry were arranged on both sides of the military formation to prevent the Chu army from attacking and attacking the Chu army at appropriate times. The focus is on the left wing. The Chu army has always had a strong left wing but weak right wing. The right wing of the Chu army is the left wing of the Qin army, so the five thousand cavalry drawn are placed in this position.

"When the Jing people saw me attacking their witchcraft with cavalry, they should add cavalry to reject me." Meng Gong explained. "The Jing people were fewer than me, so they were transferred to the central army, and there were even fewer cavalry on both sides. Even if the Jing people's infantry was arranged in a fifteen-row array with a width of four thousand, they were only two thousand more. However, I had more than 20,000 more cavalry from Jing people, and there were also five thousand cavalry from four thousand cavalry from four thousand cavalry from four thousand cavalry from four thousand cavalry from four thousand cavalry from four thousand cavalry from four thousand cavalry from them. I should have attacked the Jing people, not the Jing people attacked our army."

Meng Gong used the width of the cavalry array to make up for the shortcomings of the width of the infantry's two thousand rows. When Xu Zhan was about to reiterate his reasons for opposition in the shogunate, the right general Zhao Yong coughed and said loudly: "It's going to be bright, and the Jing people are already striking drums. Are you arguing about this matter at this time?! Please make a decision!"

"Please make a decision!" Following Zhao Yong, Qiang Xu and other generals, they led the commander to shout.

"I..." Meng Tian was thinking about the pros and cons of Meng Gong and Xu Zhan's statement, but Zhao Yong couldn't help but feel a little confused. The more he was in the battle, the more he was worried about gains and losses, and the more he urged, the more he was hesitant. But no matter what, he was once a general of the army. Just when Zhao Yong and others were getting more and more disappointed, Meng Tian finally made up his mind and announced loudly: "

Our army was arranged in the array with Meng Gong's plan! Two thousand infantry, hundreds of front and fifty back and fifty, with a hundred steps apart from front and back to prevent the Jing people from breaking the formation; five thousand cavalry and spans were sent to the army, twenty thousand left wing, ten thousand right wing, fifteen thousand right wing, and four rows were arranged in the array to prevent the Jing people from attacking my side; strong crossbows gathered in the back formation, if the front formation collapsed, the broken soldiers would need to shoot and kill them to prevent the collapse and the back formation..."

He must have made up his mind, just like clearing the silted river channel, the river flowed extremely smoothly. Meng Tian also showed this smoothness at this time. Although the number of Qin troops was more than that of Chu troops, the width of infantry line was likely to be smaller than that of Chu troops. Such an array means that the hope of victory was no longer on the infantry, but more hope was placed on the cavalry. 20,000 cavalrymen on the left wing became the trump card for the Qin army to defeat the Chu army. The most important task of infantry was to resist the attack of the Chu army's spear that was firm and unbreakable.

As the sky was bright, the soldiers of both armies were quickly leaving the camp to list the arrays for the decisive battle. Faced with the warm and pleasant southeast wind, Meng Tian, ​​behind the array, did not see the Chu army lined up with fifteen elements, but was exactly the same as the day when he was stationed ten miles away. The infantry were still twelve large square formations of spears, which were three to forty steps away from each other, occupying about three miles wide;

More than 10,000 cavalrymen were separated on both sides of the military formation, with dragon horses and cavalrymen standing outside and military horses standing inside. The formation was six rows thick, and although there were only more than one thousand rows on each side, the gap between the cavalrymen was twice as wide as that of infantrymen, and the width of one side was six miles. In addition to infantrymen and cavalrymen on the other side, the width of the entire military formation was more than fifteen miles. The Qin army had two arrays in front and back, while the Chu army was one array. Only a smaller square array was behind the central army, which should be the guards of King Jing.

The enemy's array reassured Meng Tian. When he looked at Meng Gong, Meng Gong was disappointed to see that the Chu army did not send dragon cavalry on both sides of the witchcraft, but instead nailed a half-person-high wooden stake in front of the witchcraft. The wooden stake was wrapped around the stake that could create Mo Xiangjia. There was a piece of sting every few inches on the wire. These stings swayed in the wind in the sun, reflecting cold light.
