Liu Chi was the conscientious leader of the shogunate, and Liu Chi was taken away by the soldiers. Everyone in the shogunate was panicked for a while. Wang Jian was not the reaction of the counselors. He took advantage of the heavy snow to stop, and he ordered the drums to beat the drums and summon the general commander into the curtain. The heavy snow had just stopped, but it was only a short rest. The head of the Shahai Battalion was more than 20 miles wide, and it would probably take half a day to walk for more than ten miles in the snow. The scout who went out yesterday reported that the snow was covered with knees outside the camp, and wearing several sheep fur robes, they were biting cold. Fortunately, the Chu army camp tent was twenty miles away, otherwise they would not be able to go back and forth in a day.

While waiting, I thought of the scouts, and naturally I thought of the Chu army. Wang Jian originally thought that the sky was snowing and the temperature was suddenly cold. Even in the daytime, the soldiers' hands would stick to the spearhead and could not be pulled down. If they forced them to pull them down, they would be bloody and bloody. In this weather, the Chu army would come from afar, so they would definitely be unprepared. But the scouts reported that the Chu army was in danger, and singing and laughter came from time to time in the camp.

In such weather, instead of singing in the dark curtain and holding warmth, the Chu army must be nothing to be prepared. Thinking of the wind and snow that year, Wang Jian couldn't help laughing. In that pursuit that no one expected, the Chu army had hot rice soup without cooking. Now that they were prepared, how could the King of Chu let his precious soldiers be frozen and hungry?

The State of Chu, the Chu army, and the King of Chu. Wang Jian turned his head to look at the sword on Lan Qi, remembering Xiong Jing, who was given a sword outside Chen City. He never thought that the child of Wei would confront him and fight to the decisive battle here. This battle determines the survival of Qin and Chu, and also determines the belonging of the world.

When Wang Jian recalled, the rapid footsteps came from outside the tent. When the visitor saw that Wang Jian was the only one sitting alone in the curtain, he quickly stopped and retreated. Wang Jian shouted: "General Bai."

Bai Lin hung his left arm around his neck. When he saw Wang Jian calling him, he bowed forcefully and said, "I heard that the general gathered, I don't want to come early..."

"So what if I come early?" Wang Jian smiled. "Sit." Seeing Bai Lin sitting far away, he didn't force him to move forward, and said, "How about General Bai's arm injury?"

Bai Lin bowed again when he heard this. He fell down the city wall and was not safe. The crossbow shot through his cloth armor, but he passed by his waist. When he fell down, he was hit by a ladder and fell into the pile of dead people. Only then could he survive. "General Xie, his arm injury will be healed in a few months."

"When I was in the past, I was as brave as you, and I was always the first of the soldiers." Wang Jian was good at praising people, sometimes perfunctory, sometimes very serious. Wu'an Jun Bai Qi was the god of war in the hearts of the Qin people. When he mentioned Bai Qi, he raised his head and seemed to recall it again.

"How can you compare with your ancestors?" Bai Lin Dynasty Wang Jian bowed his head. He had already lost Wang Jian's entrusted to him before he pulled out the King of Wei. Wang Jian even praised him, which made him very nervous.

Bai Lin thought about his unfinished military decree, while Wang Jian thought about his responsibility. He said again: "When my grandfather was here, he would defeat him and win his battles. His voice would shake the world. The princes heard his name and color change, and heard his courage. Alas! This is my true general of the Qin Dynasty. So what, what is it like..."

Bai Lin only realized what Wang Jian meant at this time. He mentioned that his great father Wu'anjun was not praising his great father, but despised himself. Wang Ben was defeated and he had not yet taken down the imperial city. The enemy's plan was blocked by the times. Although the Qin army was large, he did not have any chance of winning again with the newly victorious Chu army.

A battle without a chance of winning should not be fought. However, the roads are covered with snow and knees, and the outside of the tent is extremely cold. The Qin army cannot retreat like Linzi in the past. At most, there are more than 100,000 people and 200,000 people retreat north of the Yellow River. What is important is not how many people can be withdrawn, but what is important is the decisive battle to fight for the world. If the Qin army retreats, the world will belong to the Chu State.

Wang Jian recalled Bai Qi and blamed himself. Bai Lin thought about the current dilemma of the Qin army with the general's eyes. His choice was no different from that of Wang Jian. The Qin army could not withdraw and could only fight. Just as he was thinking about how to make suggestions, Wang Jian said: "When fighting with the people of Jing, I want to use General Bai as the front army, is it okay?"

Bai Lin's 100,000 people were killed and injured by 20,000 to 30,000, including 3 and 40,000 of them were newly recruited young men, not elite. Wang Jian asked him to lead his army to the front, which made him stunned. In his opinion, the front army must be elite, otherwise the front army would suffer the rear army, and morale would definitely plummet. Bai Lin looked up at Wang Jian, and Wang Jian happened to see it. He felt a murderous aura and said hurriedly: "Okay, yes. The last general will be ordered by the general."

Hearing Bai Lin's answer, Wang Jian took back his eyes and warned: "Since General Bai is in the front line for the front army, he would rather rush forward than collapse, otherwise, he would be like a collapsed army in the gulf."

Wang Ben was defeated, and the 250,000 army fled back to more than 60,000 people at night. These 60,000 people were alone in their own camp and were still in detention. According to Qin rules, "Those who do not die will return as subordinates." Although this is targeting surrendered captives, they are also adapted to the defeated soldiers who fled on the battlefield because all their comrades were killed in battle. But there is still a big battle next. If the 60,000 soldiers participate in the war, it will definitely be beneficial to the situation of the war. Therefore, some generals led their advisers to keep expressing their feelings and ask Wang Jian to be exempted from punishment, and it is best to make meritorious contributions. When Wang Jian talked about these defeated soldiers at this time, he obviously made up his mind to punish them severely.

The conversation ended soon, and the silent mountain in the curtain pressed against Bai Lin, making his forehead sweat. He knew that the front formation of the front army was to stand at the forefront of the military formation with 100,000 people. When the Chu army was about to break, the back formation, which was a hundred steps away, would come forward to make up the formation. Even if the formation was made up, the back formation was still the back formation, and the front formation was basically consumed.

"The last general thought..." Bai Lin took a deep breath, and Wang Jian's closed eyes opened. "Our army cannot attack the Jing people with cavalry, why not attack with infantry?"

"Infantry attack?" Wang Jian looked at Bai Lin without a look of surprise on his face. The shogunate strategists had racked their brains to break through the Chu army array.

"The Jing people's formation is two thousand lines wide, and I am two thousand five hundred lines. Why can't it be three thousand lines and four thousand lines?" Bai Lin's idea was just his own idea, without any attempt. "Our army's formation is three thousand lines wide, and the left and right 500 lines can attack the Jing people."

"When will the Jing people's spear formation be afraid of attacking?" Before Bai Lin finished his ideas, Wang Jian was interested in talking. Similar ideas had been imagined by the shogunate strategists, and the idea was even more wonderful - the infantry formation was 4,500 rows wide, which could encircle all the two thousand rows wide arrays of the Chu army. Surrounding sounds an amazing word, but the real generals have always been cautious about surroundings.

If you have ten rounds of troops, don’t surround them without ten times the strength of the troops, because once you surround, the width of the array will be three or four times that of the enemy, and the depth of the array will become one third or one quarter of the enemy. This is not counting. The surrounding enemy trapped beasts and fight, and driven by the will to survive, they must withstand their decisive counterattack with two or three times the strength of the troops during the battle. This is why there is a saying that ten rounds of troops will be surrounded.

Wang Jian asked Bai Lin in one sentence. When Bai Lin didn't say anything, he said again: "The people of Jing are all wearing huge armor. Our soldiers have many leather armor and many bad spears. So what if they hook up? Can hook up kill Jing people?"

"Then why is our army..." Bai Lin bowed his head again when he talked about the bad spear. This is not a problem of formation, but a problem of military armor.

"The Qin Dynasty will win!" Wang Jian cried out. He knew what Bai Lin wanted to ask, and before he could ask the question, he made a conclusion for no reason.

Wang Jian was a general of Qin, but when Fu Ji first joined the army for decades, he was just an ordinary Qin soldier. He was under Hu Yang, Bai Qi, and Meng Ao. Decades of war and fighting made him have the most precious character of an infantryman without any command: victory has never relied on strategy or military armor, but on beliefs that have penetrated into the bones.

There was no reason, Wang Jian believed that the Qin army would win in this battle. This belief coincided with the fearlessness in the famous saying of King Egis II of Sparta, "The Spartans never asked how many enemies there were, but only where they were." During Wang Jian's refusal, Bai Lin was shocked and his eyes looked at Wang Jian were completely different.

"The last general has seen the general..." Walking with the knee-dead snow, a general finally led the commander to the shogunate.

*

At the same moment, the Chu army curtain on the north bank of the Great Valley was also filled with generals. Compared with the solemn and dim Qin army shogunate, the curtain was filled with laughter and laughter from time to time, and most people had smiles on their faces.

The continuous blizzards prevented the Chu army from taking advantage of the victory to attack the sand sea, but there were many benefits. The first is that the soldiers of the entire army could get enough rest. As the Qin army thought, some slightly injured soldiers had returned to the building. The Chu army actually lost only more than 6,000 people, of which more than 3,200 people were killed in battle, most of which were knights; more than 3,500 people were seriously injured, and other injured people could wear armor and go into battle again;

The second is reinforcements. The Zhao and Wei armies participated in the battle. If the Qi army more than 100 miles away were in time, the decisive battle would be between 170,000 and 400,000, and the pressure would be greatly reduced; finally, it was tactics. Wang Jian's method of division and fighting was essentially the same as Meng Tian's method of deepening the depth, which was a countermeasure to prevent the Chu army's gunpowder explosion formation.

During the snow days, the most discussed thing in the Chu army's shogunate was how to break the increasingly thicker array of the Qin army. It was too difficult to rush spears, and infantry needed a long time to break through the increasingly thicker array of the Qin army. The Battle of Sand and Water was 100 rows in depth, and Wang Ben's array was also 100 rows. When the battle with Wang Jian, the Qin army's array might have been as thick as 200 rows.

This is no longer a question of whether the infantry can break the formation. It is a question of whether the infantry has so much physical strength to rush the spear; and the other is the catapult behind the Qin army formation. Most of the casualties of the Chu infantry in this battle were caused by the catapult. Before the formation was broken, the Chu army's spear formation had to be hit by the catapult, which was difficult to resist. The reason for the reversed "grade" array was that some spear formations stood against the Qin army formation, while some spear formations focused on rushing the spear. Those spear formations that wanted to withstand the Qin army formation naturally could not disperse the array to avoid the irrigation bombs falling from the sky.
