Zhuang Wudi knew Xiong Jing’s concerns and said, “If the Qi people arrive, our general can lead the commander, so there is no need to worry about being uncontrollably.”

"How come you can't speak." Peng Zong was also a little worried about the people of Qi. "Why do the people in the city fight?"

"The city people can only bury the trench." E Cao replied helplessly, telling the use of the city people.

The Zhou people had a distinction between scholars, peasants, industry and commerce. Guan Zhong was the prime minister of Qi and asked scholars, peasants, industry and commerce to separate them, establishing the hometown of scholars, peasants, and commerce. Shang, that is, merchants, belong to the city, and have the lowest level of various places, and are often compared with low-rankings. The Qin people guarded the border and first issued "officials are exiled (officials with faults), and mercenaries." These people were not enough, and then they issued "those who had had city registration (people who had city registration before)"; it was not enough, and then they issued "the parents of the (ancestors) who had city registration, and finally "entered the left of the village". This kind of town registration was mostly farmers whose population had no land to be granted after they had populations.

The status of the city is not as good as the craftsmanship, nor is it as good as the farmership. During the Spring and Autumn Period, only the Chinese (noble) could join the army, and during the Warring States Period, they had to be farmership to be soldiers. A country like the Chu State with a strong Spring and Autumn legacy, with city, craftership, and landless farmership, could not join the army. However, every time they went to the expedition, they would force several city and craftership to be military service.

It is not a joke that E Cao asked these people to go to Yanfu. The military law of the Wei State clearly requires that "there is insufficient to attack the city, and the general should use it to (fake gate: fake Jia) to Yanfu". At the same time, it requires that "the general should not be polite to the army, and the general should not care about it, cook cattle and eat the soldiers, and give it three meals and give it to them."

Originally, the city was not allowed to go to the battlefield, because the King of Wei was "not willing and could not bear it", so he forced them to join the army to fight. However, the generals who led the army should not be polite to them. When countless people were killed and killed in the siege, they could go to the trench; when killing beefs in the camp and eating meat, they should not let them share the beef, and give them one-third of the douche of corn and rice.

The State of Wei cannot change the city registration, and the State of Qin can change the city registration, but after changing the city registration, it will also pursue "those who have had city registration" and "the eldest parents, who have had city registration". The State of Chu, like the state of Guandong, cannot change the city registration, but it will not be like the King of Wei, who is "unwilling and unable to bear" and ask them to fill the moat when siege the city.

"If the city people are sent to trenches, they will be disappointed." Zhuang Wudi also knew how low the city people are, but the situation is urgent at the moment. "There is no trenches to fill in when they decide, so they can be used as deputy soldiers. The rest are regular soldiers. Although the words are not clear, the general leads the soldiers to set an example and fights. Thirty thousand Qi soldiers can be arranged in a thousand battle formations. In addition, there are more than one thousand troops in Zhao and Wei. Or can the Qi army be the right army, the Zhao and Wei army be the left army, and our army is the central army?"

Zhuang Wudi is a formation of 30 rows in depth, with more than 30,000 Qi troops, which can be arranged in thousands; more than 40,000 Zhao and Wei troops, which can be formed in more than 1,400 rows; nearly 20,000 people from Ba people and Xiou tribes, which are thinner in depth, and twenty rows can be formed in thousands. The remaining twenty Chu military divisions, each division uses large arrays of spears to form, and sixty rows are included in the interval between the two arrays, which is about two thousand rows.

In this way, the width of the entire army's array will be close to or even reach 5,500 rows. These 5,500 rows have not yet been calculated. After the sword and shield array is unfolded, the width of the columns and columns is twice that of the spear array. The width of their thousand rows is two thousand rows of the spear array. It is equivalent to adding another thousand rows of the 5,500 rows to reach 6,500 rows.

According to the military formation listed by Meng Tian last time, in order to prevent the Chu army from rushing the spear, the depth of the Qin army had reached a terrifying one hundred rows. If the width of the coalition array was 6,600 rows, and if the Qin army did not want to be attacked by the coalition, the width of the array must be 6,500 rows. The depth of the six,500 rows was 100 rows, that would be 6500,000, which would exceed the total number of troops under Wang Jian's current command.

Of course, the decisive battle cannot be overwhelmed by the entire army. Some war-going divisions and brigades will be used as Youque, either filling the gap or waiting for an opportunity to break the formation. However, at least the gap in the military strength between the two sides is no longer as big as before. The twenty Chu military advisors are a force that satisfies both the Grand Sima Mansion and the Shogunate strategists.

"They cannot be the left and right armies." Zhuang Wudi's opinion was opposed by Peng Zong. "The Qi army, Zhao army, and Wei army are afraid of seizure, and the Qin cavalry more than me, so I think they should be the central army."

"Are they the central army?" Zhuang Wudi set up a regular formation, while Peng Zong went against the rules and placed the weak army in the middle.

"That's right." Peng Zong said. "In order to prevent me from breaking the formation, the Qin people were more thick. Under Meng Tian's command, the Qin people had a hundred lines of formation. Therefore, I thought that our army would not attack in the middle, but should attack sideways. Strong troops should be on the left and right, and after the cavalry battle, they would attack around the Qin people's sideways, and the central army would be undefeated."

Peng Zong did not move the fundraiser in front of him, and he outlined the combat ideas of this decisive battle in just a few words. The spears are mostly about breaking the formation. Now that the array widths of both sides are similar, they should not hit again, but should attack on both wings. The Qin army is a horizontal team, and the horizontal team formation is not that it cannot turn, but is difficult to turn. Once the spear formation rushes to the side back, there will most likely be a collapse.

"What's the use of artillery?" Side strikes are not possible, but side strikes cannons seem redundant.

"It is inconvenient to attack artillery. The Qin people should strengthen their formation in front of the formation, and our army will attack as usual." Peng Zong said. "Only, there are several divisions on the left and right wings to attack their side and back, and attack them in both directions to promote the formation to collapse. The central army has no other requests, and the Qin army can take advantage of the victory when it collapses."

"Yes." E Cao first recognized Peng Zong's decisive battle idea, which was a good way to exert the mobility of the Chu army column. If the Chu army was placed in the middle, the mobility would be impossible, and he could only break through the spear and break through the formation.

"But," Xiong Jing nodded, but his concerns did not disappear. "When will the divisions arrive?"

His question made the smile that had just appeared on everyone's faces suppress. Except for the fourteen divisions that had already assembled, the other six divisions, Qi army, Ba people, and Xiou tribes, were all on the road. If Mu Ze would be frozen tomorrow, they would definitely not be able to catch up with the decisive battle. If they could not catch up with the decisive battle, Peng Zong's side attack would not be able to do it, because the width of the two armies' arrays was too far apart. When the Chu army on the left and right wings circled to the flank of the Qin army, the decisive battle would probably end soon.

"The Yue army, Lu army, and the troops of the various clans can arrive within a few days." Zhuang Wudi said. "The Qi people are slow and have not yet entered our Chu territory at this time; the Ba people and Xiou tribes are the same. If they can reach Jianguan and Qingyang, they can arrive in ten days."

"Ten days?" Xiong Jing turned his head and looked outside the bed. The wind was howling outside the bed, and the sky was gray and dark, and it seemed that it was going to snow soon. Fortunately, snow did not mean frozen. It was not cold when it snowed, and it was the coldest when it melted. However, this was a very different era. Maybe this month, Muze and Fengze would be frozen.

"Can you arrive this month?" Xiong Jing asked again. Zhuang Wudi said that in the second half of the journey, the Qi people had to cross the Qi Great Wall and enter the Chu territory, and finally arrived at Jucheng. Only by rushing to Jucheng can you come by boat; the Ba people had to sail through the shallow Yishui in winter and reach Jianguan on the bank of the Yangtze River; tribes in Western Europe must arrive in Qingyang and take a boat from Qingyang to north.

"It will definitely be here this month." Zhuang Wudi replied very sure. With boats, it should be there no matter how slow it is for more than twenty days.

"I don't know when it will snow and freeze?" Xiong Jing's eyes were still staring at the lead-sheep sky outside his bedroom, as if he was talking to himself.

"In the past, when it snowed at the end of the month, the river was frozen in the next month," Peng Zong replied. "I have a word, but I don't know..."

Peng Zong's respect made Xiong Jing smile. Seeing this, Peng Zong said, "The Qin army is 600,000, and Doctor Zhao Wei believes that I cannot win, so I can't win. It's mostly connected with Qin. The water of the ze River is frozen, and the sand sea is only ten miles away from the beam..."

"The Qin people defeated each one?" Xiong Jing immediately understood what Peng Zong meant. Although the Zhao and Wei armies were more than 40,000 in Daliang, the three armies did not unite. The Qin people were likely to take the initiative and defeat each one.

"In the past, Wang Jian of Linzi was afraid of me. Hundreds of thousands of troops fled at night, and they were fighting with me. Why did they want to decapitate the city and lose their troops?" E Cao looked at Peng Zong and was puzzled. Attacking the city has always been a matter of losing troops and generals. If the Qin army captured Daliang first and then fought a decisive battle, they would be defeated by the coalition forces just like they were besieged by Handan. This was a good thing for the Chu army.

"If the Qin people secretly communicated with each other, what would it be if the city gate was opened privately when the ice was frozen?" Peng Zong expressed his hypothesis. In addition to the fact that the armies could not arrive in time, he was also worried about Wang Jian's early attack and pulling Daliang.

"There are many people who hate Qin in Zhao and Wei, and they will fight to the death. The Qin people cannot even pull the city into the city. The Qin people fell into Daliang, and our army will go to the sand sea to attack its camp the next day. Once the camp is destroyed, the Qin army will be defeated." Zhuang Wudi suddenly came up with an idea when he said this, "If the Qin people could tempt the Qin people to attack Daliang..."

Qifeng is only sixty miles away from Daliang, and after the ice is frozen, it is about seventy miles away from the sea of ​​sand. This is a journey within one day. If the Qin army falls into Daliang, it will be a repeat of the situation in Linzi that year. Zhao Wei is not from Qi. The Qi people gave beauties, jade, silk, and wine, but did not entangle the Qin army in time, so Wang Jian ran away at night. Zhao Wei cannot do this. If the Qin army really attacks Daliang, the defenders in the city will bite them hard, and Wang Jian can't escape even if he wants to run away.

"The Wei people had ten cannons, which could be used as bait." Peng Zong suggested. "This is something that the Qin people must obtain, and it can lure the Qin people straight into the Daliang royal city."

"This plan is OK!" Dou Chang didn't speak much, but was very interested in this plan.

"This is a plan!" E Cao and several other soldiers also nodded frequently. "In this way, Wang Jian will fight me."

The snow-capped pursuit in Linzi left a deep impression on the Chu army. Many generals led Sima to think that Wang Jian would run away, especially when their troops increased greatly. Zhuang Wudi lured the Qin army to attack Daliang, and the Wei and Zhao armies entangled the Qin army and the Qin army were deeply agreed with Sima of each army.

When several people looked at Xiong Jing, Xiong Jing shook his head unexpectedly, "No." Seeing that everyone was unwilling to give up, he explained: "You can't fight with the Qin people at this time, if you fight with the wits, you will lose."
