Chapter 55 Knowing Fate

The stronger the **, the stronger the ability, these are the laws. After all, you cannot have to work hard and work day and night if you are so strong that you are imprisoned, you will have to accept the arduous task of expanding your territory. In ancient times, such people were always moved to colonies or borders to conquer foreign races.

Wang Jian is over fifty years old and still wants to control a daughter every day, otherwise he will not be able to sleep well. And every once in a while, these women will have to be replaced. Fortunately, he is not picky, not only does he not pick on him, but he does not like the pretentious noble women, and the unpretentious common people. As long as these women give enough gold and silver rewards, they will easily arrive every day, and the personal guards will not be charged with forcibly robbing the women.

Duty is the biggest feature of Wang Jian, who was a fighting official. He knew that he was just a leader of Guizhou, but he had luckily made military achievements and became a general. Therefore, he only liked common people, rather than those wandering men who suddenly succeeded in a high position. They would sleep with beauty, carriages when they went out, and bells and cauldrons would be eaten.

It is also because of his duty that he never forgets the innate cunning of the common people. He takes risks when he should take risks, bends when he should bends, and pretends to be dead without hesitation. He quickly let his emperor's hand shoot an arrow at him, and then falls down the chariot and avoids the heavy cavalry of the Chu army that plows like thunder.

Zilu said: "A gentleman dies, but he cannot escape the crown." So Zilu dies; as a general, Wang Jian never forgot that he is just a commoner, so he is still alive now.

Honor? Dignity? Dog shit! No, no, dog shit can also be used to fatten the fields, to defend the city, and to exorcise ghosts. Honor and dignity, besides causing death, make people sad and cannot bring any benefits to people.

Experience over thousands of years has proved that those who are willing to die for honor and dignity generally do not live the last. They do not live the last, and their land, houses, gold, silver, wives and concubines... will only be left to the common people in the end. To try every means to survive and live better is what the common people really deserve to think about.

Wang Jian knew the survival philosophy of the common people and was naturally open-minded and generous in dealing with things. He also taught Wang Ben to be responsible for his duties and never be as noble as Wu'an Jun Bai Qi. Because he did not want to be defeated, he was sentenced to death by the king. Of course, his duties were a poem in the Xiong Jing dictionary. In Wang Jian's dictionary, his duties were called Zhide.

Wang Jian, who knew his fate, was fucking hard in his tent. This was one of his few hobbies. Wang Ben waited outside the tent for half an hour before hearing the sound of the money falling to the ground. Then the maid still gave thanks with a breath. She saw Wang Ben obviously stunned when she saw that he bowed quickly and ran away as if she ran away.

"Father," the tent was filled with the smell of love between men and women, and Wang Jian was drinking the mud naked.

"Yeah." Wang Jian glanced at him and asked, "How much has our army lost?"

"The military officer said that more than 43,000 people would be reduced to the left." Wang Ben's face was full of pain. After more than ten years of military achievements, he finally reached the 18th-class Grand Secretary, and then he went further to the Marquis of Guannei, but he fell sharply.

"What can I do if I cut my lord to save my life?" After drinking the slurry, Wang Jian stepped into the bathtub and scooped water with a gourd to pour it on his body. Wang Ben snatched his gourd and scooped water on his head. With the sound of water, the father and son were speechless for a moment.

"Hehe... King Jing can break our army. If it weren't for the desperate attempt to stop the cavalry, he would have been a commoner." With some fear, Wang Jian naturally talked about the afternoon war.

In the Battle of Anyang, the twenty cannons of Xiang's army did not pose a fatal threat to the Qin army. Wang Jian was worried about the cannon, but he was not as worried as Wang Ao. What he did not expect was that the military formation he had painstakingly designed was actually defeated by the Chu army's spears, and then the Chu cavalry rushed through the brigade and attacked him directly.

This kind of beheading tactic was often used in later stirrup cavalry. Generally, the wedge array of heavy cavalry is aimed at wherever the enemy commander is. After a wave, the enemy commander dies or flies, and then the enemy defeats, and then pursues.

This army that retreated as soon as the general died could not be compared with the Qin army of Wang Jian. But the problem is that the Chu army infantry is equally strong and good at fighting. Heavy cavalry can break the formation, and infantry can break the formation even when they rush to the spear. If it weren't for the stirrup, the use of the high bridge saddle gave the Qin cavalry a numerical advantage, which made most of the Qin army retreat safely to the north of the Shui River, and the entire army would really be on the west bank of Niushoushui.

"That Wu Fen said he was the boy of King Jing. He had known that King Jing had two feet on his horse, but the ridiculous general Xin Sheng was not concerned about it, and instead laughed at him." Wang Ben was still scooping water, and he talked about Wu Fen's past.

"Oh. In this way, he is also a Jing person?" Wang Jian only knew that Wu Fen was the newly-emerged cavalry general in the Battle of Weinan, but he did not expect that he would have such a past.

"Yes." Wang Ben said, he did not want to talk about the struggle, but wanted to talk about the current war. "Father, Prince Yangyan, wherever the Jing people went, our army retreated to wherever the Jing people went. If the Jing people went to Jingxing, our army retreated to Jingxing to defend, waiting for the Jing people to retreat when the rain and snow."

"Yeah." Wang Jian listened quietly, not speaking.

"Zhao Zhi was very unhappy, so Wang Ziyang said that if King Jing enters Guanzhong again, Guanzhong will also deal with this..." Wang Ben continued. Wang Ao was a student of Wei Liao's national lieutenant. His words were actually Wei Liao's words, and Wei Liao's words represented the latest military trends in the Qin State. As a general of Qin, you must understand the strategic changes in the Qin army from Wang Ao's detailed words.

Wang Ben kept saying that until he repeated Wang Ao's words, he said: "Our army was defeated and retreated again now. If the king knew..."

"Our army was defeated, and it was said that it should be reduced to the title, and it should be punished." Wang Jian said. "The defeat in this battle was not because the soldiers were not strong, but because the guardians were forced to intercept the Zhao people, but the lieutenants were unable to line up. The guardians were able to be effective, resulting in only minor losses in the entire army, not Quan Mo, and the Weng should be innocent. The Prime Minister's affairs were not related to Nai Weng. If there was a conclusive connection, why would the king not accept Nai Weng's military power?"

A small defeat, not a big defeat, is exactly what Wang Jian wants. A small defeat is reduced to his title, and if he loses a big defeat, he will be punished. Wang Jian believes that the news of his serious injury and minor defeat has reached Xianyang, and Wang Ao is watching the scene and will not be punished by the king.

"Now Weng has already dictated his crime and sent it to Xianyang overnight to apologize for crimes." Wang Jian said again. "Now the people of Jing are attacking me in large numbers. Meng Tian is in Hanzhong, Zhao Yong is in Guanzhong, and Li Xin is in Luoyang. There is no major event in the country. If the general is on the side, if the injury is not serious, the great king's king should take Naiwen as a general.

After the Zhao people moved, all the Zhao lands were returned to me; if the Zhao people did not move, the Jing people retreated and our army would encircle Handan again, and capture the King of Zhao."
