Chapter 71: Judgment

Xiong Jing’s question really made Huang Xie’s question confused. What we should ask in this era was ‘how to eat full every day’ rather than ‘how to eat meat every day’. As generous as Mengchangjun, his disciples were the lowest, also called ‘no fish’. There were many rivers in Qi, and they were surrounded by the sea three times. I thought that fish would not be expensive, but poor disciples would have to eat without fish, let alone the common people in the countryside outside the city?

In the Eastern Palace, Huang Xie was thinking about how to answer his students. Upstream of the Huai River, he headed to Chengyang to a cart where Wang Shuzhong was running. The Grand Secretary was trying to report to Xiong Yuan about Xiang Yan. Through the Feixun, Xiang Yan disappeared a few days ago. Chen Shi Sima Chen Gai, who stayed in Chengyang, did not know where Xiang Yan brought more than 10,000 troops.

Anche is a special car for the king. The outside is gold and silver, and the dragon and phoenix are carved. The inside is divided into two rooms, the front and back. The front room is the imperial room and the back is the master room. It is more than one meter high and the length and width are more than two meters. Xiong Yuan, who was tired from the journey and was getting worse, was half lying on the car, but the skin crown was worn. After hearing what Naoji said, "Zi Xie once said that Xiang Yan is a good general of our Chu State. If he does not defend and counterattack, it must make sense... Cough cough... The Grand Sima doesn't have to be too..."

After a while, Xiong Yuan coughed again. Chang Jiang, who was serving the car, quickly stroked his chest and back, while signaling Naojiu to leave.

"I know. I ask you to leave." Naojiu wanted to speak but stopped and had to retreat. The king's soldiers traveled thirty miles a day to Chengyang, which took more than twenty days. Because the mobilization order was issued late, the Wang Ming Chuanlongjie, who was dispatching troops, even if the county officials arrived at the hands of the county government, most of the county soldiers were in the mobilization. This means that the inner Chengyang would be isolated and helpless in the twenty days, and there were only more than ten thousand defenders there. Can they be defended?

"Grand Sima," Naojiu's words were over, and Xiong Yuan's words were not over. "Will Mr. Tang go to Wei?"

Tang was a native of Wei and was once a minister of Wei. The later generations of "the wrath of the emperor, burying millions of corpses and bleeding thousands of miles", and "If a soldier must be angry, two people will bury the blood for five steps, and the world will be covered with mourning" were his answers with the King of Qin in the Qin Palace. After the death of the King of Xinling, Wei Wuji, he entered Chu to persuade Chu to join the Hezong State, and took the King of Chu as the leader of the Hezong State. The King of Wei defeated the Qin army and frequently attacked Wei. In order to please Qin, the King of Wei exempted all the officials who had previously agreed to the Hezong State, so he became Huang Xie's disciple.

The disciples are a kind of wealth. The Grandpa Shen Yin-Yuan, Zuo Tu Zhaoshu and others also had many disciples, but there were few heavyweights like Tang Qi and Lian Po. With Huang Xie's suggestion, it was one to lobby Zhao Wei for sending troops, and it was two to send people to Qin to lobby the King of Qin to retreat. Neither of them could be careless. Among the disciples, Tang Qi was over 70 years old, but he was the most suitable, so he asked him to go to Qin through Wei, so Xiong Yuan had this question.

"Report to the great king, Tang Qi left the army five days ago. I think he had entered Wei State at this time." Tang Qi set out with the army and had drank with the King of Chu five days ago.

"Yes," Xiong Yuan frowned and replied, he couldn't tell the difference between the time.

"Please rest assured, I will leave." Naoji looked at Xiong Yuan and sighed secretly, and was about to leave.

"Zi Ji," Xiong Yuan suddenly changed his name instead of an official position. He gasped, "If I move to Taoism, I should not die."

"King..." Naojiu's eyes widened and his eyes were about to break. But he was not a literati and could not say anything to comfort him.

"Weapons are a major event. If you cannot fight and defeat them, Wei Qi will be careless and join forces to attack them. The State of Chu will be in danger." Xiong Yuan looked at Naoji eagerly, with too many expectations in his eyes. Only when Xiong Jing mentioned this expectation dissipated, replaced by a kind of satisfaction. "Jing'er was born to know about his talent, but he was young and needed to protect him until the day he was crowned."

"Don't worry, I swear to protect my eldest son to the day of the crown." Nao cried and thought that the king's order was around the corner, he was about to cry.

"So...so..." Xiong Yuan smiled with a purple face, and he was asleep before he finished speaking. Chang Jiang quietly covered his silk quilt on him and stepped back from the car with Naojiu.

When he walked away, Naojiu asked, "How is the king?"

"The Medical Yin can't talk about Chengyang." Chang Jiang looked sad. Xiong Yuan had been serving since he was a child and had a deep relationship.

"Hey!" Naojiu punched him on the bronze armor of his carriage, bleeding continuously but not feeling pain.

"Tao Sima takes care of it!" Zhaoshu, Nao Ji and others knew that they were not as capable and smart as the emperor Huang Xie, but their loyalty and patriotic spirit were not as good as those of the ministers. "This battle made our Chu State turn danger into safety. The king did not want to make funerals do not allow funerals to do military affairs. The eldest son was young and the country was in chaos, and he would all rely on the Grand Sima in the future."

Chang Jiang also understood the truth that he said was cunning, but he just couldn't suppress the grief and anger in his heart.

"Report!" A quick horse shouted from afar, the cavalry who was summoning him.

"What's the matter?" Guided by the flag, the rider quickly dismounted and bowed to Naojiu.

"Report to the Grand Sima: General Xiang Yan sent a message, and the Qin army had 100,000 out of Jiyi, and had crossed the Huai River to destroy Xieyi and attack us. The general had led his troops to Jiyi, and might burn his food and grass and destroy his baggage..."

When the Qin army was said to have 100,000 cunning, they were stunned. The king's soldiers were only 30,000, and the Chengyang defenders were less than 50,000.

"Master Sima..." The rider found that Nao was confused and wondered if he wanted to reread the newspaper.

"You said, Xiang Yan has gone to Jiyi? How many soldiers and horses does he have? Where is he at this time?" Naojiu quickly woke up.

"General Xiang Yan left the city with light clothes, but only 16,000 soldiers." The rider replied, "I don't know where I got here. The villain only knew that this was a newsletter issued on Shenyang balcony three days ago when the car was suspended."

"Three days ago, when is the time for hanging a car? Shen Balcony?" The news reports were all time, and Xiong Jing even ordered the Feixun system to add time. This news was issued by Xiang Yan before the camp overnight, and Shen Balcony - the uncle of Zhou Xuan, the uncle of the mother of Zhou, was conferred the title of Xieyi in Nanyang, and was destroyed by King Wen of Chu. One of them avoided Chu and moved to Xinyang. First, the capital was established at Shen Balcony, and then at Xieyi (Pingchang Pass). Xieyi is a major road at the ferry crossing, and is still here, and Shen Balcony has been abandoned for hundreds of years. Of course, none of these are the key points. The key point is: Shen Balcony was the Qin territory in the past. This means that Xiang Yan's troops have arrived in Jiyi.

The light-equipped troops led by Xiang Yan did go to the periphery of Jiyi, but the Qin territory was strictly controlled. He did not dare to let the scouts rashly go deep into Qin territory, and he did not dare to sneak into Jiyi. He could only send light-sharp people around to guard him, and he would not let anyone go when he met a stranger. But after a long time, he could not guarantee that everything would be foolproof. At least, his family would not return all night. With the Qin rules, the head of the family would definitely report to the official.

On the hill, there is a small, small city that is not very clear. On the hill, Jiyi is a small town that cannot be smaller. Ten thousand Qin troops went to war, but they could not put food, supplies in the city, so they could only pile outside the city. In addition to the mountain of military funds, there is also a large area of ​​colorful and mixed carriages not far from the city. They should be merchants in the Qin army. They gathered here, probably waiting for the Qin army to surround Chengyang and set up a military city. The military city can first convert the wealth privateed by the Qin army, and secondly, they can meet the needs of soldiers in combat.

After wandering in the mountains and forests for six or seven days, Jiyi finally appeared in front of him. Several generals with Lu Lijing looked carefully. The army below was not as good as Lu Lijing, so he could only look at him.

"General, the last general asks for battle, and go to Jiyi in one battle." Pan Wuming couldn't help it, and Lu Lijing threw it and asked Xiang Yan for battle.

"The last general also asks for battle, please order the general to take down Jiyi." Cheng Tong followed closely behind.

"No, no, no, no," Peng Zong saw Xiang Yan not answering and was still looking at Jiyi several miles away, and immediately smiled. "The Qin army must be on guard at night, and it will be the best to attack the city and the morning and morning tomorrow."

"Chongming?" Now it's just a high spring, and it's just the beginning of spring. It's dawn tomorrow morning, and there are still more than a dozen hours left.

"The soldiers were extremely tired from traveling overnight, and they should have a rest overnight..." Peng Zong was still saying that Xiang Yan put down Lu Lijing, and he had a clear idea of ​​how to fight this battle.

"All the generals obey the order!" Xiang Yan glanced at the sun setting westward. Time was urgent, and he didn't want to return to the military tent to issue an order.

"Weiwei!" The generals shouted Weiwei and all bowed to accept the order.

"One said: When the car was hanging, Xiang Zhi's troops rushed to the west of Jiyi, cut off the Qin army's return route, and beware of the Qin cavalry coming to the Fuyi. All the cavalry of this army was dispatched by Xiang Zhi. If Jiyi is down, your troops should go west to Fuyi City and pull out Fuyi overnight."

"I will be ordered!" After several days of marching, the soldiers were exhausted, and Xiang Yan had to hand over the task of taking down the Fuyi to Xiang Shi.

"One said: At dusk, Chengtong's troops selected two thousand strong soldiers to go out of Jiyi Avenue, without placing a bullet and accompanying Qin army to Jiyi. If the Qin people were aware of it, they should abandon all the baggage and attack them quickly. The rest stayed in the camp."

"Receive the order!" Cheng Tong also received the order. The Xi master was only half a teacher, with the smallest number, only four thousand.

"One said: When hanging the car, Pan Wuming's troops sneak along the forest with all the elite troops. When they arrive at Wulin, they should go quickly. Remember not to fight in a strait, and to attack Jiyi as the key. The rest of your troops will also stay in the camp. The generals and soldiers of each division should not be greedy for the wealth, property, wine and meat of the Qin people. Those who violate it will be killed!"

The military order was soon finished. In addition to the left-behind soldiers, the army of 16,000 people was divided into three groups, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, and one by one, the Qin army chose to attack at dusk because the dusk was getting heavier and the eyes were far away. The Chu army that was forcing Jiyi to enter Jiyi might not be noticed by the Qin army.

"I will accept the order!" Pan Wuming shouted at the top of his voice. Then he bowed and arranged for him immediately.

Sixteen hours a day, only ninety minutes a day. Xiang Zhi and Pan Wuming’s two departments were the most urgent. As soon as they entered the forest where the headquarters was located, they urgently recruited officers to attend the meeting, arranged tasks, and issued orders.

When the officers were in a meeting, experienced soldiers knew that the battle was about to be fought. They either sorted out the battle, or ate some military rations with water. This was awkward, similar to the burnt noodles in later generations of wars; but more soldiers took off their leather armor, tops, and put a piece of brocade on their chests, and wrote "Don't dare my hometown (direction)" on it, or wrote "Don't dare a hundred soldiers to me" and "Don't dare to come with bows and arrows".

There are witches in every county and town. This is the life-saving talisman that the family asks for. Although life and death are from heaven, who doesn’t care about life?
