Chapter 53 Fraud

"What is the Jing people's witchcraft?" The witchcraft that can be attacked three hundred steps away is shocking. This is the first time that the Qin army has received news of witchcraft in this battle.

"There are four witchcrafts, all of which are controlled by six dragon horses." Lingbing said again. Even Zhao Zheng couldn't help feeling distressed when he heard that six dragon horses were controlled by six dragon horses.

"How many people in Jing?" Wei Liao asked again. He did not look at Lingbing, but looked at the map on the table.

There are many rivers in the Qinling Mountains, and it is impossible to build dams and block water on every river. More than 100,000 laborers have been used to build three dams in three days. Now I am worried that the Chu army will cross the ridge from unexpected places. Wangchuan, Daichuan, Kuchuan, Tangchuan... and more than 100 miles may become the channel for the Chu army.

After Meng Tian’s army arrived in Lantian this morning, the Qin army, which had sufficient troops, faced only two problems: one: Where is the Chu army? Second, if the Chu army uses witchcraft, how should we deal with it?

The former is full of mountains and valleys and lush trees. Unless the Chu army reaches more than ten miles away, even hunters in the mountains will not be able to explore the Qinling Mountains more than a hundred miles wide. All the Qin army can do is wait. Now the Chu army wants to wade out of the Lanchuan River, but is it really in Lanchuan?

Excluding the word "witch" in witchcraft, it is actually a powerful crossbow. The only way to make crossbows is to use crossbows. However, can the crossbows made by the Shaofu really stop the Chu army's witchcraft?

After recording the news, Wei Liao fell into deep thought. He had a very bad feeling, which became more and more obvious when someone proposed to build a dam and destroy the road. Just as he was about to think of him, Zhao Zheng, in the inner hall, called him in, and Zhao Gao summoned him in.

"What are the people of Jing? There are four witches?" Zhao Zheng asked, and he had just heard Lingbing's report.

"That's right." Wei Liao said. He did not look at Zhao Zheng, but crossed Xianyang to order Zhao Yong and looked at Meng Tian, ​​who was sitting at Zhao Zheng's head. "I think there may be dozens of witchcraft in Jing people, and these four weapons are only the front army."

In the Battle of the Lishui, the Chu army used as many as sixteen witchcraft, and that was only a few thousand people. Tens of thousands of troops wanted to attack Xianyang, but there were only a few more witchcraft. Zhao Zheng nodded and pointed at Meng Tian and said, "Meng Qing said that the Jing people may be cheating."

"I wish to hear it carefully." Wei Liao looked at Meng Tian. He led a 200,000 army and traveled more than 600 miles in four and a half days. Such speed was beyond the reach of any general in the world. Meng Tian was not old, so Wei Liao did not dare to look down on him.

"I dare not." Meng Tian bowed. "I think the people of Jing are good at wandering and do not like battles. The Qin Dynasty has more than one million soldiers, but the Jing people have adopted the strategy of elite soldiers. The whole country has only 200,000 soldiers, and they want to use one to do ten. They have divided the troops by wandering and killed one of us with the largest number. This has been the case since the King of Jing established the Grand Sima Mansion.

Now that the people of Jing break through Wu Pass and eliminate Shang Yu, is it true that they are trying to destroy the Qin people? No! I think this is still a wandering plan and want me to divide my troops!"

Wei Liao was shocked when Meng Tian said the last sentence. He naturally thought of Li Xin's 400,000 Qin troops.

"The Jing people have big winged warships. Instead of saying it is a warship, it is better to say it is a swift boat. In the battle of Jiyi, Xiang Yan covered 200,000 people, why? Because of the swift boat, Jing people lured me to fight in Gongyi and quickly drove Nanyang in Nanjun, why? What is the swift boat? If King Jing went out of the Yiguan Pass to attack Xianyang, it was still a wandering plan. His army quickly returned to Nanyang with the swift boat and joined forces with the Qi and Wei army to attack the general, our army was defeated."

Smart people can understand it at a glance. From the beginning of Meng Tian's saying that the Chu army was good at wandering, Wei Liao guessed Meng Tian's words below. The Chu army was strong and sharp, and had the power of witchcraft, which was an advantage; the Chu army also had weaknesses, that was, there were few people. Originally, the Qin army could attack the few with the crowd, but the Chu army was used to wandering and never fought decisively on the battlefield preset by the Qin army, which led to today's passiveness.

Did the Chu army want to copy another battle between Jiyi? After informing Zhao Zheng that day, Wei Liao also thought about it. But what if he thought about it? Xianyang is the capital of the Qin Dynasty, and Zhao Zheng is the king of Qin. Neither of both should be misleading.

"I think King Jing has returned to Nanyang." Zhao Zheng laughed inexplicably and looked at Wei Liao talking. He firmly believed in Meng Tian's words.

"I have ordered Li Xin not to advance aggressively, and the march should be slow." Wei Liao added quickly. There was a saying that he was not easy to say: At that time, he asked Li Xin's entire army to return to Guanzhong.

"So what?" Zhao Zheng thought about Meng Tian's words, the more reasonable they felt. He couldn't help but look up at Meng Tian. "The Jing people drove a swift boat and were good at wandering. They would not fight with me. If I could drive a swift boat..."

Speaking of Xunzhou, Zhao Zheng shook his head. It took only half a year for the Chu sea boat to sail to Xizhou. The warship can be thousands of miles a day, which is not comparable to that of Qin. Without Xunzhou, how could the Qin army force the Chu army to fight to the decisive battle? The rivers in the south are crisscrossed, and they have always been a place for boats. If the Chu army did not go north, the Qin army would never be able to do it.

"Therefore, I think that we should dig the embankment and build the plank road." Meng Tian suggested. "If the Jing people fight with me, our army will be able to defeat the Jing people; if the Jing people still wander, our army can also chase them quickly to fight."

"Good." Zhao Zheng nodded when he heard this, "The dam that blocks the water can be destroyed."

"I'm going to discuss it." Wei Liao said. He didn't think of building a dam, but he did not object.

"I also agree." Xianyang Order Zhao Yong also said.

"Mengqing thought that if the Jing people attacked Li Xin, where would they be?" At this time, Zhao Zheng was no longer concerned about Xianyang, but Nanyang. If Li Xin's 400,000 troops were completely wiped out by the Chu army, even if it was half annihilated, Qin would have severely injured his vitality. In just one death in battle, the Qin army would have reduced more than 400,000 troops in ten years, plus the death of illness and Yu, the number would be greater. If Li Xin lost it, the remaining elite soldiers would be Meng Tian's 200,000 and Wang Jian's 200,000.

"I know that the army's food and fodder are not enough. If the Jing people attack the general, they should be in Fangcheng." Meng Tian judged. "Nanyang and Wei are in Ye. When the general enters Fangcheng, the Jingwei army must pull out Yecheng to cut off the general's food route and return to the road..."

Meng Tian followed his father and was in the army since he was a child. He knew very well how to fight the annihilation war. The 400,000 Qin army had to attack the city and had a lot of baggage, especially the heavy weapon that captured the Zhao people's city-breaking weapons. They could only go to Yecheng in the northeast corner of Fangcheng and not Luguan in the middle of the north of Fangcheng. Li Xin wanted to recover Nanyang and Nanjun, and he would first attack Wancheng.

The more Meng Tian said, the more Zhao Zheng frowned. A hundred years ago, the combat power of the armies of various countries was almost the same. The hope for victory was not on the battlefield, but on the temple, especially the temples of other countries. No matter how strong a country was, as long as several countries attacked it, the result would be either a destruction or a severe injury to its national strength. This was the case with Wei, Chu, and Qi. Once these powerful countries weakened, Qin would be able to fight one by one. The problem was no longer how to win, but which country should it be fought.

The Chu State has become stronger over the past ten years, and the war seems to have returned to the era of fighting wits and courage before the Hezong Lianheng. The Qin army fought many times and has not adapted to this "old" style of fighting. It is nothing to say it out now. The Chu State was just Zhao State before the Battle of Changping. As long as there is a defeat in Changping, the Chu State will never recover.

Of course, before giving Chu a defeat in Changping, the Qin army could not suffer the defeat in Changping. Thinking of this, Zhao Zheng said: "Whether to save Nanyang or not, if it is saved, how should it be saved? Everyone said it."

When the sun was west, cicadas in the mountains were even more cheerful. After more than two hours of half-sleeping, Xiong Jing was woken up by Chang Jiang. After putting on her armor and leaving the inner tent, all the generals in the shogunate had arrived. When they saw Xiong Jing coming, they bowed together in an uplifting tone: "I have seen the king!"

"No gift!" From left to right, Xiong Jing looked at every general in the shogunate. In order to let the king see him, the general Zeng Jue of Xiyang actually came out to welcome him. Just like in Qingshui eight years ago, this review made him excited.

"The Qin army is twenty miles north, and Xianyang is more than a hundred miles north." Xiong Jing took a deep breath and felt that he wanted to say something. "How can I stop Qin Huan! Once upon a time, it was where the Chu people were unwilling to eat, where the Chu people were sniffing, and where the ancestor King Huai was imprisoned and died.

Today, our army is here, not for others, but for revenge! Revenge for the ancestor King Huai! Revenge for hundreds of thousands of dead in Yan and Ying! Revenge for more than two million Xinqian leaders in Chu!!

Only by such revenge can the untouchables of Qin State know that the Chu people are not the same as them, and we, the Chu people, should not be humiliated lightly. Only by such revenge can Zhao Zheng and the noble officials of Qin State know that the Chu people... Revenge will be restored, and hatred will be bloody!

You must tell the entire army that today is the day to avenge the bloody hatred of the people of Chu!”

Anger and excitement intertwined between Xiong Jing's chest. He waved his hands and his whole body was also waving. The wars in the past took place in the old Chu land, and only this battle today was the real battle in Qin land.

Revenge, only by defeating the Qin army and the Wei River is red, can he calmly look at the Qin people in the future. He is like this, and the generals in front of him have no less hatred towards the Qin people than him. The generals who are angry and rushing to the crown seem to remember every word in the shogunate. As soon as they come out of the shogunate, they will return to their own troops. There are only six words that really remember in their minds: hatred will be restored, and hatred will be blood!

"Revenge will be restored, hatred will be blood!" The shorter the text, the more it can ignite people. After this sentence was taken out of the shogunate, it spread throughout the army within two hours. It was hot, rugged, excited, uneasy..., all these things disappeared in an instant, and all that was left was naked hatred.

"Report to General, the time is coming!" Jia Si Hengjian looked at the sun and saw that the hourglass was about to be empty, so he quickly reported to the commander of the leadership.

The prison's eyes were silent, and he said expressionlessly: "Okay!"

"Okay—!" There was no drum sound, only the orders conveyed by the military officers. The soldiers who were waiting in line took steps together after hearing the orders.

"Report to the king, the time is coming!" The sound of Zhuang Wudi is not loud when Xiong Jing is located.

"Okay!" Xiong Jing shouted softly. He rode on the dragon horse, and the soldiers behind him looked up at him.

"Report to the general, time has arrived." The two Hengjians in front are Chengtong and Douyuzhi. Chengtong in Jiayi Hengjian has been impatient for a long time. Starting from the Second Division of Yingdu in Jia4, he waited for an hour and a half.
