When Xia Yang woke up again, he found himself lying on the grass. When he looked again, he saw his bare feet, and the pair of leather wands he was wearing were gone. The sun was already above his head, and it was strange that he did not march. He set out from Xianyang and walked four shelters in two days, but when he arrived at Lantian, he was five shelters. Now it should be thirty miles away from Lantian County. However, when he stood up barefoot, he found himself outside Lantian City.

Lantian is not a big city, but a small city about twelve miles around the city. After the Wangchuan River exits the mountain stream, it merges into the Bashui that had just turned ninety degrees from the east of the city. The Xianshiying where Xiayang is located is on the east bank of the Bashui, and is separated from the county town by the Bashui that goes north.

Three hundred thousand troops gathered in the same place. Xia Yang's eyes were all military tents, and Qin soldiers were also Qin soldiers. In a daze, the shouts of mountains and tsunamis the day before yesterday came again - under the protection of dozens of old-fashioned large wings, a tower ship with the sun and moon flags slowly came.

Of course, the tower ship representing the king cannot be the kind of tower ship of the Zhoushi. The tower ship of the Zhoushi is only two floors, but the floor of the Wangzhou that Zhao Zheng is now riding has four floors. One floor is higher than the other, and the smaller the upwards. Each floor is equipped with a female wall, with a stern soldier standing on it, and the flag is erected on the fourth floor, and the female wall is also equipped with military flags. From a distance, there are many flags on the tower ship, and the reputation is very strong.

Such a tall tower ship almost filled the entire Bashui. Fortunately, the boat did not require a boatman. The slinger on the tower ship was rowing the oars and heading to Lantian County more than ten miles away at a speed slightly faster than walking. The soldiers on both sides of the Taiwan River not only knelt on the ground when they saw the tower ship coming, but also shouted loudly, even though they were wearing armor.

"Why don't you kneel?" A voice suddenly asked. When Xia Yang wanted to say that when the Jiezhe didn't worship, he found that he had nothing but a long robe and a tarss.

"Why don't you kneel?" Xia Yang saw that the other party was not kneeling and did not have armor on his body. He only had a jar of wine in his hand. After asking, he was raising his neck to drink wine, but he didn't see his embarrassment.

"Why should the dying person kneel again?" This sentence reminded Xia Yang that when the wine jar was put down, Xia Yang saw the man's tattooed face. Apart from his two thick eyebrows and his eyes looking horizontally, he could not see his complete appearance clearly.

"If the Chu army does not come, how can we die?" Xia Yang seemed to comfort himself. He did not want to die in Lantian, and his family was in Xianyang City.

"Chu Army?" The tattooed man smiled. "Hehe, it's really a traitor."

"I am not a traitor! I am..." Xia Yang's conditioned reflexive defense. At this time, the tower ship was getting closer and closer, and the majestic and powerful cry of long live covered his words. However, the tattooed man didn't care about his defense, nor did he care about the traitor.

The Bashui initially flowed east-west, and passed Lantian County to flow north-south. Previously, the Qin soldiers on both sides of the undercurrent of Bashui were shouting. As Wang Zhoulou ship approached, although the Qin soldiers on the upstream of Bashui could not see Wang Zhou, they also shouted loudly.

Three or four hundred thousand people were cheering along the coast of Bashui, and the sound was shocking. So much so that Xiong Jing, who was still climbing a ravine dozens of miles away, also heard this movement. He didn't know that "he" had been shot to death by Zhao Zheng, and if he knew, he would definitely curse himself. Isn't this legendary puppet villain a needle? Of course he could die, but it was so cowardly that it was very angry. Fortunately, he didn't know about this now, and he was only surprised by the voices of the Qin people.

"Report to the king, this is the Qin people calling the King of Qin." The soldiers with sharp ears stood at the high place of the mountain stream. Although they could not hear it clearly, they could roughly guess that the Qin army was calling out to the King of Qin.

"Call the King of Qin?" Xiong Jing sneered. After the sneer, he became angry again.

Although on the sand table, this valley road from Wangchuan to Qinling Mountains is easier to walk than the rest, and the valley road is wider, but there are only mountains and rivers on the sand table without vegetation distribution. So as we walked, there were four people hugging Dazhang in the middle of the road, and a single person could pass by side, and the carriage, artillery, and supplies had to be cut down.

Except for the delay in the first half of the day, the rest of the logging was cut in advance, but the continuous gullies often blocked the way. Gongshuji had already predicted this before the march, but the engineering soldiers were not prepared enough. Engineers and civilians built roads and bridges all night, but still could not guarantee the normal marching of the Chu army. On the third day, the entire army climbed to the heights of the Qinling Mountains, and there were still dozens of miles down to leave the Sichuan.

Wangchuan Road, in the writings of Wang Wei of the Tang Dynasty, there are paintings in poems and poems in paintings ("Wangchuan Tu"). Now when the Chu army comes, there is blood in sweat and tears in blood. When the cannon cannot move forward, they can only be taken apart and carried with their shoulders. The ten-pound cannon barrel weighs 440 kilograms, and it is hard to carry four people on the mountain road; the fifteen-pound cannon barrel weighs 586 kilograms, and it is hard to carry four people, and it is difficult to walk on the mountain road.

The gunners, as soon as they can get on their shoulders, they cannot get off their shoulders until they are in the right place. When they can't hold on, their bodies keep shaking and their tears can't help but rush. Fortunately, after crossing the highest valley, the remaining roads are not only flat, but also downhill.

Xiong Jing originally hoped to leave Wangchuan and Bailuyuan this afternoon, but it was already noon. According to the mountain itinerary, no matter how hard he tried, he would have to leave Sichuan until noon tomorrow. It might even be possible that the entire army would regroup again tomorrow afternoon. At that time, Meng Tian’s 200,000 people had already arrived in Lantian.

The only hope now is that the troops can be unexpectedly exposed to Bailuyuan. The Bashui turns from east to west, turns a right angle to the east of Lantian City, and flows north into the Wei River. The south of this right angle is the Wangchuan River, and the two rivers form a straight three-way intersection. Due to the limitations of the river, 500,000 Qin troops must be distributed on both sides of the Bashui.

More than 80 years ago, the Chu army was unable to win, mainly because it was unable to cross the Bashui upstream that flowed east-west after leaving Lantian Road. It was blocked by the Wangchuan water to the west. Even if it crossed the Wangchuan water, the Qin army had occupied the western side of the Wangchuan water and the mountain plateau southeast of Bailuyuan. The Chu army attacked the high places from the low places, and once the arrows were exhausted, they were completely at a disadvantage.

Now the Chu army does not flow out of the river from the Bashui River, but from the west of the Bashui River. At least it can annihilate all the Qin troops near the west bank of the Bashui River and Lantian City first. As for whether it can annihilate the Qin troops on the other side of the Bashui River, it can only depend on the situation.

Due to the restrictions on Feixun transmission, Li Qi of Wancheng and the combat department of Yingdu could not fully understand the terrain of Wangchuan Road and could not give much advice at all. What they were nagging was not to leave Lantian and take Xianyang, but to repeatedly emphasize that the conditions for the execution of Case B were ripe and that Case B should be executed as soon as possible; Dou Yuzhi, Chengtong, Dou Chang, Pan Wuming and others believed that after coming out of Bailuyuan, they would first wipe out the Qin army on the west bank of Bashui, and then cross the river to defeat the Qin army on the east bank of Bashui, especially the call from noon today made them stick to this point even more.

Ele, Zhuang Wudi and others believed that it would be enough to kill the Qin army west of Bashui by chance. Next, we should not cross the Bashui to attack the Qin army, but should follow the Bashui north, cross the Baishui and seize the Zhidao west of Ba Bridge. Qin Xianyang was not the Xianyang city of later generations, but was slightly westward in the north of Xi'an in later generations.

Bashui, the place where the water flows out of the Qinling Mountains is Bailuyuan. At the north end of Bailuyuan (more than 80 miles out of the mountain), the two waters flow into the Wei River after converging. The river berths enter the Wei River are vast and silted, which is not suitable for building bridges.

So from Lantian to Xianyang, it is basically going to the east bank of Bashui. After the intersection of Wushui and Bashui, before the Bashui enters Weishui, the narrowest part of the river is Ba Bridge (about 100 miles out of the mountain), and once you pass the Ba Bridge, it is Zhidao Pavilion. If history does not change, twenty-two years later, Qin Prince Ying tied her carriage and white horses, tied her neck to form her, sealed the emperor's seal and talismans, and descended to the side of Zhidao, and Qin State was destroyed.

To the west of Zhidao Pavilion is the Qin Palace in Weinan. There is a long bridge between Xingle Palace in Weinan and Xianyang City in Weibei. The bridge is six meters wide (13.86 meters) and three hundred and eighty steps long (526 meters) long, which is a shortcut to Xianyang.

The Chu army did not cross the Bashui east, but instead advanced north to capture Baqiao. If the Qin army did not follow, Xianyang, which was almost empty, would probably not have time to block the gate gate. Xianyang was built very wide, with the imperial road in the middle being twelve meters wide, and the gate gate on both sides was more than five meters. Since Zhao Zheng dared to fight in Lantian, the gate tunnel such as Xianyang City might not be blocked. Once the artillery was fired, Xianyang would be broken.

Shang Ru Qin's army followed, and 500,000 people rushed north to more than a hundred miles to seize Ba Bridge. Considering that the real elite army was only more than 200,000 people under Meng Wu's command, these more than 200,000 people had just rushed to more than 600 miles, and only a part of the soldiers who could actually reach Ba Bridge were to attack. The Chu army was going to attack this part of the Qin army. After defeating this part of the Qin army, then crossing the Bashui River eastward and attacking south along the coast, from the north end of the Qin army's long snake formation to the southern end. If there were no accidents, 500,000 people would be defeated.

The shogunate was in a sultry and when Zhuang Wudi finished saying "500,000 people were all destroyed", the lieutenant generals were all shocked.

"I think..." Pan Wuming was impatient. He subconsciously felt that Zhuang Wudi's strategy was unreliable. He fought for 100,000 and 500,000. All 50 people were defeated, but he could not find any reason to refute him.

"The Qin army must have a boat commander..." E Jun said happily, he was most unaccustomed to not having a boat commander.

"The Qin army's boat troops are afraid of my artillery. The Wei River is only four or five hundred steps, let alone the narrow Bashui?" Zhuang Wudi retorted.

"If the Qin army is divided into two groups, one way to the west of the Bashui River and the other way to the east of the Bashui River, what if it is?" Dou Chang asked.

"So good." Zhuang Wudi said. "Our army has worked so hard to get the Qin people to divide the troops? The Qin people are divided into east and west Bashui. Our army can fight with the Qin troops on the east and west sides of the Qin troops on the east and west sides of the Qin troops. No matter what, it is not 100,000 to 500,000."

After Zhuang Wudi finished speaking, he bowed to Xiong Jing, "I think the leader of our army is worse than the soldiers in Guanzhong, and he is more excited than the soldiers in Mengwu. When I fight, the soldiers in Guanzhong are not as good as me; when I walk, the soldiers in Mengwu are not as good as me. In this battle, the soldiers in Mengwu are not as good as me. You must not fight before the battle, but you should fight again when the battle is carried out. When the soldiers in Guanzhong are tired, the soldiers in Guanzhong are weak, and if they do not fight without the battle, the Qin people will be defeated."

"However, our army does not have much food or fodder." Dou Yuzhi reminded him. Wangchuan Road is inconvenient to pass, and the soldiers only brought seven days of dry food. Today is the third day.
