The alliance with Qi is the unshakable national policy of Chu in the future, but Chu will undoubtedly become the western barrier of Qi and continue to be attacked by Qin troops. There is no way to do this. The geographical location determines Chu must play such a role, just like the geographical location in the Spring and Autumn Period determines that Qin must be a flanking allies of Chu, and jointly deal with the powerful Jin State.

Qin and Qi are the key to Chu's diplomatic strategy. Zhao State, which was blocked by Qin's eastern county, could only become an isolated army, unless the Chu army could really become the water army planned by the Grand Sima Mansion. However, the Yellow River is not as good as the Yangtze River, and the waterway is very unfixed. It will freeze when it is cold in winter, and the ice turns into ice and blocks the river in spring, so it cannot sail.

With such diplomacy, internal affairs are a mess. The county and town dare not send troops to serve the king, which is equivalent to rebellion. Using honorary scholars to replace county soldiers will definitely cause the Chu administrative organization to be paralyzed at a certain period of time, or even civil strife. However, Xiong Jing did not expect that it was at such a critical moment. How to deal with these county officials and imperial courts is a thorny problem.

If you don’t kill, as long as the time is right, these will probably resurface again, which will lead to political turmoil. If you kill, these old foxes will send troops in the name of the public clan. How can they kill? They are equivalent to being a vain king, and they have county towns for many years and have county soldiers under their command. If they really rebel, they will run to Qin. If they help the Qin army lead the way in the future, they will not be a joke.

When the ministers discussed, Xiang Yan mentioned that Ruoao's descendants were alone and praised his vanguard. Speaking of the Ruoao family, Xiong Jingxin was in ling, the harm caused by Miao Ben to Chu was still small. Miao Ben just made the Chu army lose the Battle of Yanling. After him, Qu Wu taught Wu people and chariot battles, making Wu a strong enemy of Chu. Later Wu Zixu led the Wu army to attack Jiying, and Chu almost destroyed the country. After Bai Gongsheng, Bai Qi slashed it with a sword, and the Chu State broke into two parts, losing the clan's ancestral tomb.

In the eight hundred years of Chu State, every noble struggle had to pay an unimaginable price, and the background of every noble struggle was the expansion of royal power. However, the purpose of the new policy was not to expand the royal power at all, but to make the powerful princes, allowing them to regain the courage they abandoned. Is this also wrong? Or do they have no courage to get up bravely again, and can only sleep on the soft couch, listen to the faint sound, and live with the beauty to survive?

Xiong Jing didn't sleep all night. He woke up when he was about to get up early in Japan, and then went back to sleep in a daze. He didn't get up to wash until noon.

The sun was shining, the sky was blue, and the spring breeze blew slowly, making him dozed off. In the era without coffee, he could only drink a few sips of strong tea to suppress his sleepiness. However, drinking too much tea would cause calcium deficiency, so he had to instruct Changjiang to eat tofu at night.

Tofu originates from bone-connected gypsum. Xiong Jing, who found the gypsum, couldn't help but think of tofu. This experiment was done in the middle school chemistry class. The alcohol lamp heated soy milk to 80 degrees and added saturated gypsum water. The soy milk would solidify. The filter cloth wrapped it and cooled it into a piece of tofu. Even if there was gypsum soy milk when he was besieging the city, he was embarrassed to eat tofu by himself. Now he was not besieging the city. He wanted to eat it all day long. In order to show that he had a few months of corn and pickles to eat it.

The king slept until noon and had to eat tofu in the evening. Xiang Yan and others who had not slept all night had not rested until noon. Unlike the Qin cavalry that had spread the entire battlefield the previous year, the Chu cavalry has now defeated the Qin cavalry, and news has been constantly coming from last night. After learning that there was another Qin army sixty miles away, Xiang Yan was very worried that they would come back.

"I've seen the king." As soon as I entered the shogunate, the soldiers, soldiers, generals and generals saluted Xiong Jing, and no one cared about the king sleeping in.

"No gift." Xiong Jing exhaled. "How about the Qin army?"

"Report to the king that the Qin army abandoned the city of Kawai and did not defend it, and was already in the Wei realm of Gui Yan." Xiang Yan asked, and he added another news: "The Wei general was captured last night and told him that the Qin army Wang Jian led a 50,000 army to rescue Yan, so the Qin army and the warriors were only 100,000."

"100,000?" Xiong Jing was silent. Ten thousand is indeed too little, but with Wang Jian's fifty thousand, this is already fifty thousand.

"Yes, the king is brave and powerful. The Qin and Wei armies suffered tens of thousands of casualties to attack Chen Ying, and there were burial pits everywhere outside the city." Xiang Yan looked at Xiong Jing with admiration. The siege was so fierce that only the Battle of Handan more than 20 years ago could be compared.

"This is the attack of Lian Qing, and the Buying is just a look." Xiong Jing mentioned Lian Po that made Xiang Yan's face change slightly. He smiled in his heart and said, "However, if Xiang Qing does not save him, whether it is Buying or Lian Qing, forty thousand soldiers will definitely die in battle."

"I dare not, I am late to help the king, so I ask the king to atone for his sins." Xiang Yan bowed again, and he stayed in Xiangcheng, and he really wanted to pursue this as a death sentence.

"What is Xiang Qing's crime?" Xiong Jing smiled. He had heard about Xiang Yan's stay in Xiangcheng and refused to enter. With the situation at that time, Xiang Yan really decided his life. Since Xiang Yan had made a choice, he had no intention of pursuing his hesitation at that time.

"The Qin people are cunning, our army is insufficient, so Xiang Qing is temporarily blinded by it." Xiong Jing quickly changed the subject and asked: "In the battle yesterday, our army was injured, killed, and there were still soldiers left. How many people can row the oars?"

Xiong Jing's question was naturally to attack Ao Cang. Xiang Yan was very energetic when he heard this. He said, "Report to the king, our army injured more than 14,000 people yesterday, killed more than 4,800 people, and Chen Ying's army, there were 160,000 soldiers who could fight and more than 45,000 people who could row oars."

"Is there three injuries and one death?" Xiong Jing murmured. The report of the Grand Sima Mansion Operations Department believed that the battle with equal strength and the casualty ratio of the winning battle was about five to one, but I didn't expect that it has really dropped to three to one now.

"Report to the King: This is because of the great armor." Some things are not mentioned, no one pays attention to them, only a vague impression. The Grand Sima Mansion began to pay attention to the casualty ratio, non-war damage rate, and after the exchange rate between the enemy and the enemy, Sima Peng Zong, the army, also began to have these concepts in his mind.

"It's because of the great armor." Xiang Yan also said that he inspected the entire army in the morning, and the soldiers were still wearing armor, and almost every armored jacket had scars. "Yesterday the battle was extremely fierce. When the Wei army defeated, the Qin army soldiers almost wanted to defeat our left army. Fortunately, the soldiers had great armor and the matte beryllium."

"War again in a year, everyone in the Chu army will be very armored." Xiong Jing said confidently, and there was a joy of harvest in his words. "Go and see the wounded soldiers." After he was happy, he thought of the wounded soldiers, "If there is anything, talk while walking."

"The king loves soldiers." Xiang Yan sighed. In his impression, the wounded camp was covered with filth and screamed in pain. Even the king was not afraid to go there in person. It was a place of epidemics. If you accidentally get sick, it would be a loss.

Xiong Jing and Xiang Yan went to the injured soldiers camp together. Peng Zong wanted to dissuade them, but when Xiong Jing was left and right, he endured it. In order to reduce the movement of the wounded soldiers, the injured soldiers camp was at the location of the visit yesterday. The difference was that there was a circle of curtains outside, and there was a huge military curtain like the shogunate. Peng Zong smelled a smell of wine, and Xiong Jing and Xiang Yan also smelled the smell of wine. Several people were at the disadvantage of the injured soldiers camp.

"Just disinfect it with wine." Xiang Yan and Peng Zong could not ride a horse, so he could only ride in the chariot. Xiong Jing controlled the horse's speed and walked slightly ahead.

"Can wine be disinfected?" Xiang Yan didn't understand these things at all, and Xiong Jing couldn't explain too much, so he could only laugh it off.

After everyone entered the camp, the smell of alcohol disappeared, and the injured inside was in a stable mood. They were basking in the sun, and the witches in red robes were busy.

"The king has an order: Don't be the king. You are recuperating from the wounds." Several loud voices shouted with Xiong Jing's garrison. However, Chen Ying's guards knew this rule, and these people didn't understand what "Don't be the king" meant. They all bowed to the ground and shouted to pay homage to the king, which made Xiong Jing feel a headache.

"No need to be polite!" shouted again with loud voices, and more and more injured soldiers were injured.

"Those who dare to rituals will be killed." Xiong Jing had to pretend to be a villain. After this order, the injured soldier dared not rituals, but his face was full of confusion.

"You are injured, the king will pity you, so you don't need to perform rituals." The busy medical Yin Yingli had to run out to explain to the injured soldiers. He ordered the witches to explain to the injured soldiers, and this time he comforted the injured soldiers.

"Why is the king here?" Yingli was wearing white clothes, a white hat, and his hands were covered with blood.

"How can we improve our military's security if we don't have this?" Xiong Jing was surprised, and he said again: "You go, Bu Ling and Xiang Qing take a look everywhere."

The Chu Jun’s medical system was built according to the king’s wishes, and the surgery was also proposed by the king. Feng Li had no choice but to do so, and Xu Yiyi ran back. He was just performing surgery on the injured soldier.

"If the injured soldiers can be cured, they are all brave soldiers." Xiong Jing walked in front, Xiang Yan and Peng Zong followed. "It's a pity that our military medical skills were too poor before, and we didn't understand disinfection, we didn't understand bleeding, we didn't understand fractures, we didn't understand amputation, and we didn't understand sutures. Almost half of the injured soldiers were killed. Now it has been changed. Chen Ying besieged the city for half a year, and only a few hundred injured soldiers died. If we can carefully analyze the causes of the injuries caused by the wounded soldiers, we can also improve the original armor and reduce casualties..."

Hippocrates once said that those who want to be surgeons should go to the battlefield. After half a year of siege, the Chu army suffered 30,000 to 40,000 casualties, and the enemy's casualties have increased by 100,000. The surgeons of these witches have made great progress. The rifting, the belly is broken, the bone is correct, the suture, and amputation are even skilled in the witches, but the biggest gain is a group of blood people.

"This is the blood man." Xiong Jing led Xiang Yan and his wife to a secluded camp with blood drawn signs. There were neatly sitting inside, with a bunch of blood men sitting horizontally on the short table. Because there was no rubber tube, they could only insert a silver tube on the blood vessel. The dark red venous blood flowed into the silver bottle along the silver tube, and was taken away by the inspected witch every time.

Xiang Yan's scalp suddenly became numb. He had seen farmers entering the mountains to cut lacquer, and he also made a hole in the tree. After the paint liquid flowed out, he would take it away. Xiang Yan was numb, and Peng Zong found that the bloody man's hands were stuck on the short table with iron hoops and ropes were tied to his feet. They all had a sad face. Several of them cried while crying and said in Qin language: "I will die, die, die..."

The male in charge of collecting blood had just bowed to Xiong Jing. He was afraid that the king would be unhappy when he heard the sound. He ran over and shouted in a low voice, "If you cry again, add it!"
