At dawn, Jiangyi, which had been fighting for a night, finally became quiet. After walking past the broken city where corpses were piled up like mountains, soldiers robbed the broken city. The cavalry general Xin Sheng stepped onto the broken city wall of 18 feet. The city wall was built in the Spring and Autumn Period. Not only was it disrepaired for years, nor did it violate the etiquette. There were only three versions. The fire was raging in the baggage granary in the city. This was caused by the setting fire of the Chu soldiers before the breaking city. Xin Sheng did not order the soldiers to put out the fire. He wanted the entire Jiangyi rather than the baggage granary.

"Report to the general immediately: our army has taken down Jiangyi overnight and killed more than a thousand Jing people." Xin Sheng ordered Xunqi, knowing that Meng Wu must be waiting for this news.

"Hi!" Xunqi was ordered to bow to him and rushed to the top of the city, jumped on his horse and hurried north.

"General, how to deal with these wounded prisoners?" Gan Xin, the deputy general of the cavalry, also stepped onto the city with the overlapping bodies of the Chu army. He pointed to the wounded soldiers of the Jing people under the city. These people were all slightly injured, between killing and not killing. Before the war, Xin Sheng had a military order to not kill the wounded soldiers, so Gan Xin had this question.

"Yeah." Xin Sheng also saw the wounded soldiers, about hundreds of them, some of them were seriously injured. "Put back."

"Let it go back?!" Gan Xin and his left and right were shocked. The Chu army defending the city in front of the city had left the city and retreated to Xi County. Although Bai Duwei made arrangements to attack the city again when he evacuated Jiangyi, there were still many casualties in the attack last night. "General, our army suffered more than 2,000 casualties, and only more than 1,000 beheads. If these people were let go, it would be no longer enough!"

"If you don't have any wings, you will not care." Xin Sheng had a firm face. "When the city was broken, the direction of Jing people retreating was Xi County, not the Jing people's camp. These wounded soldiers were about to be released to the Jing people's camp, which would disrupt their military morale. Do you know?"

Of course everyone understands the purpose of releasing these wounded soldiers back to the Chu army camp, but what does it have to do with the chaos of the morale of the Chu army? The general gave him the military order to take down Jiangyi at all costs, and then defended here to wait for the army to go south. Several people were facing each other, but they did not agree with Xin Sheng's order, and of course no one dared to object.

"Hmph." Xin Sheng glanced at him one by one, and the people bowed their heads one after another. "Tell me the order and let the wounded soldiers of the Jing people return to the camp."

"General Xin has an order, let the wounded soldiers of Jing return to the camp!" The messenger shouted loudly. The five hundred masters guarding the wounded soldiers under the city kicked Chu Zuo, and then shouted loudly: "General Xin has an order, and order you to return to the camp. Let's get out of here!"

"You can only return to the camp, not Xi County. Violators will be killed!" Xin Sheng on the city wall added another order, and asked a cavalry general to take dozens of martial knights to drive the group of wounded soldiers north to return to the Chu army camp.

Yesterday afternoon, the Chu army, which retreated fifteen miles to camp, was less than thirty miles away from Jiangyi. These wounded soldiers could return to camp after two or three hours. What Xin Sheng didn't know was that before dawn today, the early Chu army began to pull the camp southward before dawn, and the Qin army was also advancing. Yesterday, the Qin army did not enter the camp again. In the afternoon, the supplies, food and fodder were loaded into the cart, and chased the Chu army southward and set up camp several miles north of the Chu army camp. Xiang Yan's initial judgment was correct: the Chu army went north to seek battle with the Qin army was not anxious at all. Once the Chu army began to move south, the Qin army would be anxious: how could the meat that was so deep that it could fly away.

When the sun came out, both Qin and Chu armies were pulling out their camps. The difference was that the Chu army had cleaned up early, and the rear army had already begun to move south. The Qin army was making meals while cleaning up the camp tent, and some scouts approached the retreating Chu army. It was impossible to stop them. They were just spying on military information. For example, the structure of the fire-sending weapon, the geometry of the Chu army's food truck, whether the food and fodder were full, etc. With too many flies, the Chu soldiers would get used to it. As long as these people did not shoot arrows or chop them, they would let them get close.

"The Qin army's reconnaissance cavalry is so rampant!" Xiong Jing, who had risen early, was still patrolling, but was no longer in front of the formation, but between the retreating battalions. Just now, several Qin army reconnaissance cavalry actually passed through the Chu army array dozens of steps in front of him, which was so annoying.

"King, most of our knights were born in children and were kept in outer stables. It was difficult to compete with the martial knights of the Qin people." Lian Po sat in the car and followed Xiong Jing. He had seen many cavalrymen. The knights in the Zhao army were no less than those of the Qin people.

"Guan Tong?" Xiong Jing certainly knew what Guan Tong was. Chu State was a hierarchical society. The so-called heaven had ten days and people had ten levels. These ten levels were: kings, dukes, officials, scholars, soaps, yus, servants, servants, servants, servants, servants, and Taiwan.

Needless to say, the four types of kings, dukes, doctors, and scholars, are: soap, refer to black, but there is another meaning that refers to the interest of raising horses. The identity is below the husband, and the lowest of sages refers to minor officials; chariots refer to carriages, and only carriages can be called carriages, and ox carriages are called boxes. In the pre-Qin chariot war, the regular soldiers (master husbands) fought with horses and carriages, holding wheels and holding carriages; the Xianzhang (yufu) followed the ox carriages and were responsible for transportation. The chariot men refer to the disciples who fought with chariots, which were actually common people.

Li, the word "li", means attachment, and means attachment, refers to the source of the subordinate ministers and slaves, and many of them are private debt slaves, and their status is high or low, mainly depending on the identity of the master. Although there is no personal freedom, they can be promoted and given titles; Liao, whose name is Tonglao, is actually a sinner; Zuo, Jinwen is a sinner who holds a dustpan with both hands, but is actually a sinner who needs to be hard-working. In order to prevent escape, he has been punished by palaces, tattoos, and swords. Most of the sources are prisoners of war, and only strong prisoners of war are suitable for labor; Taiwan refers to Gaotai. If the subordinate ministers escape, they will be sentenced to prison (father); if the subordinate escapes, they will be punished and become servants; if the servant escapes again, they will be imprisoned in Gaotai. Only the Gaotai is the lawyer, which is enjoying the blessing, so they have to go to the garrison to serve cattle and horses;

Wang Chengong, ministers, officials, officials, ministers, ministers, ministers, ministers, ministers, ministers, ministers, ministers, ministers, ministers, ministers, ministers. What is the Tong of the Tong? The Tong of the Tong of Tai is the son of Tai and the servants of the stable. Yesterday Xiong Jing mentioned that he wanted to train a cavalry, and one of the reasons why Lian Po opposed it was where the knights came from. Of course, he knew that most of the people riding horses in Chu State were turtles, and they used turtles as knights... Even if Xiong Jing had the courage and skills to raise the social level of turtles to common people or above, who would dare to use such a person with nothing?

Those who have no constant property but are persevering will only be able to do so. This is Mencius's arrogant words. It means that only scholars can maintain their ethics, and ordinary people cannot have constant ethics and principles without family property. If the Chu State wants to train a cavalry, they must abandon those children who can already ride horses and start from scratch. The cost can be imagined.

A country always has its own talents. If you have to attack the opponent's strengths with your own shortcomings, the price will definitely be tragic, but if an army does not have cavalry, the result will be disastrous. Xiong Jing felt that the stirrups under his feet were a little hot: History has proved that cavalry with stirrups can take away the Roman shield formation in one wave. The Roman legion is strong in melee combat, but how can sword and shield soldiers fight in close combat with cavalry? Their short swords cannot reach the knights at all; if cannons are added, the spear formation will die miserably, and the cavalry that has formed a formation to protect itself will naturally not rush in, but cannons can be in. Once the square formation is broken, the ending can be imagined.

Thinking of this, Xiong Jing couldn't help but turn his head to look at the catapult that was being dragged by hundreds of cows and thousands of lifus. Isn't this a cannon? He couldn't help but curse: "The heaven is killing eight feet! I'm digging a hole for myself!"

Xiong Jing, who understood this, began to have a gloomy face and no longer had a smile. Lian Po said nothing about this, but the Right Shi was anxious: "The king is very worried about this. I would like to ask the king not to do this, so as not to fall into the morale of our army."

"You mean, I have to smile?" Xiong Jing pointed his face backwards and almost bit off his little finger.

"It is reported that the Qin people have seized Jiangyi, and the great king Yan will be happy. The soldiers will be calm when they see the great king, and they will know that they will win this battle." The right historical advised, trying hard to fulfill their duties as a minister.

"I, I..." The Right Historian said it was indeed reasonable, and Xiong Jing refuted speechlessly. Since then, he has been smiling until the inspection is completed and Xiang Yan invites him to the military station to discuss the war.

The battle ended several days ago. The left, center and right armies and Youque had to explain everything they wanted. The only thing they had not yet told the army inside the division, the brigade commander and the commander of the soldiers was that the central army would retreat fifty steps after the battle. The central army retreated and the Qin army followed. At that time, the left and right armies not only had to resist the frontal enemy, but also had to attack the enemy beside them, so that the Qin army that was trapped in was attacked on three sides.

The commander and the soldiers may not have to know the tactics of the entire army, but the third-level officers, including the commander of the division, the commander of the brigade, and the commander of the soldiers, must know. Once the central army retreats, they can only stabilize the military formation by having no choice but to keep the array intact.

Of course, this is also the tradition of the Chu army. In order not to be criticized and scolded by the officials of the county and towns, the generals of each division have the right to know the tactics of the general before arranging the formation. If they have to take the most dangerous place and must be themselves, the generals must give certain benefits, otherwise the reason is unreasonable: Why should our division die more people, and other divisions can enjoy the fruits?

Now Xiang Yan invites Xiong Jing to go for two things: one is the additional benefit. After the central army retreats for fifty steps, the left and right armies will suffer heavy losses when they move forward. Although the Qin army's military formation was only twelve miles wide yesterday, the retreat of the central army is equivalent to putting the left and right armies on the front of the Qin army and hitting the inside, so the left and right divisions must have the advantage to make up for the losses.

The second is Xiong Jing's position. Xiong Jing said he should stand in front of the formation, but Xiang Yan and the counselors believed that Xiong Jing's best position was after the central army was moving forward 60 steps. This position was actually in front of the formation, but it was just in front of the formation after the central army retreated.

"Tell the king that what we see last time will be the final battle tomorrow." Xiang Yan said this as soon as he saw Xiong Jing, and everyone in the shogunate looked grim.
