Chapter 10 Gods
In July, all the troops had gathered in Nanzheng and were preparing to join the final battle. Xiong Jing asked the generals of the army to lead a feast, and there was no reason not to come. Although it rained in the summer afternoon, the weather was still hot. Therefore, the banquet was not set up in Nanzheng City, but on the north bank of the Han River outside Nanzheng City. The night fell and the river was windy, and the stars were burning in the water bank. With the sound of music and dance, it was difficult to get drunk at such a night.
Before leaving, Wei Ying told Shi not to enter the county magistrate's mansion. Unexpectedly, Xiong Jingnan and Zhengcheng were not allowed to enter, and the banquet was placed by the water in the south of the city. At the same time, there were so many people at the banquet. How could the King of Chu kill him? Shi felt relieved.
"Nothing happened tonight." Looking at his confidant Kan, Shi smiled. "Maybe the King of Chu really wants to marry a princess..."
"The Xia people are so deceitful, and the great heroes cannot believe it." Kan is a honest man. Since the wise man said that this trip is dangerous, he believes that this trip is dangerous.
"Of course I don't believe it." Shi shook his face and patted the sword on his waist. "The needless King of Chu has not yet developed the courage to kill me."
For a long time, beards were important symbols of men. A beardless man would be regarded as having no courage, or simply as a eunuch or a child. That year, the King of Chu fled to the Qiang land for refuge under the pursuit of the Qin army. Without beards, he dared to challenge Dahao, and became the laughter of all the Qiang warriors. Shi's words aroused the laughter of the warriors around him, which made him very comfortable. Until he went to the feast, there was a smile on his face.
"The news of General Zhuang has not arrived, if the news is false..." It was already dark, Dou Yuzhi, Chengtong and Nao Xin hurried to meet Xiong Jing. Before the last ray of afterglow fell, Nan Zheng did not receive any news - he sent a guard knight to Qiang land half a month ago. Dou Yuzhi was worried that Xiong Jing would anger the Qiang people if he killed the great hero.
"How can the news of the news be false?" Aristotle IV's attendant Chang Lego Valla was a spy who knew the story of the marquis. His hometown was on the far eastern Mediterranean island of Cyprus. Zhipi had promised him that he would send him back to his hometown by boat at the end of the war and assist him in revenge. Aristotle IV was Lord Baidi of Qin and the tutor of the eldest son. His news of the marquis could not be false.
"What if it is a vain? If this is the Qin people's counter-spliers' plan, what can I do?" Dou Yuzhi didn't know the origin of the information. The prelude to the formation war was the cavalry war, and the prelude to the cavalry war was the Hou Ji War. This is the most tragic battlefield. Both sides deceived and deceited as much as possible, and tried their best to do everything they could.
"The news cannot be false." Nao Xin vaguely knew the source of the news and told him.
"It's true or false, you'll know it just by trying it." There was no news about Zhuang Quji, who was personally going to Qiang land, and Xiong Jing was no longer equal.
"You must not be reckless." Dou Yuzhi saw the murderous intention in Xiong Jing's eyes and was even more worried.
"Reckless?" Xiong Jing looked at him with his sword in one hand, his cheeks bulging. "It was already July, but the Qiang people discussed peace with the Qin people. If the Qiang land was not settled early, how could our army fight in September?"
Time is already very tight. Although the direction of Wuguan Road can mobilize the Qin army, it cannot support Chen Cang Road. More and more evidence shows that the 200,000 Qin soldiers who lost their left toe were not only summoned, but were also practicing battle formations in a certain place in Guanzhong. Without the assistance of the Qiang people, the 150,000 Chu army generals faced 400,000 or 500,000 Qin troops, and the Qin army still had a geographical advantage. The battle at Sanguan may not be as easy as Li Qi said.
Xiong Jing said that fighting Yu Zhi was speechless. He advised Xiong Jing to be cautious because the Qiang people are extremely important. Xiong Jing also took risks and settled the Qiang territory early because the Qiang people are important. Both sides have the same concerns, but the solutions are different.
"What do you want to do with the king?" Cheng Tong, who was standing on one side, felt the similarities and similarities between the two, and asked urgently.
"The Grand Secretary knows." Xiong Jing calmed down. During the waiting half a month, he became very anxious.
As dusk approached, the banquet on the north bank of the Han River had already been filled with lieutenant generals. The banquet table was placed first with the chairman. The seats were arranged on both sides of the chairmen as the person attending the banquet, and a rectangular venue would be empty in the middle for the musicians to sing and dance. But this time, the careful generals found the difference: the rectangular venue under the chairman turned into a circle, and the chairman and the guest seat were arranged around this circular venue, but the difference was that there was no second seat behind the chairman.
The military salute did not enter the country, but there was no such seating in the military salute. For a moment, the generals of the Chu and Zhao army were a little suspicious. They sat on the chairman's west hand, the Ba people, the Yue people, and the Qiang people sat on the chairman's east hand. Although they were suspicious, the seating was a small matter. Before the war, the king could personally persuade him to drink, and then kill the Qin people, attack Guanzhong, and turn the Qin Kingdom upside down. This is a major event in life.
Before Xiong Jing was in the seat, the Han River shore became lively, and the soldiers were naturally talking about military affairs. The experience of the Battle of Fenxing Pass allowed the generals of the Chu and Zhao army to understand some new experiences: what is more certain is that before the war was a big brigade, the two sides collided and fought together. This is wrong. The spear formation does not require a big brigade to catch the enemy, and even the big brigade is also a spear-like rushing, three rows of three rows of forward rushing forward, so that they will not be entangled with the Qin people, resulting in no distance to rushing.
Everyone agrees with this experience, but there are big differences in the conclusion derived from this experience.
Three rows and three rows of forward rushing forward. If the military formation is in the fifteenth row, it can only be hit five times. What should I do if I can't break the formation after the spears? According to Caodian, after the spears, the soldiers must go back to the rear of the army to prepare for the next round of charge. However, there is no vacant on the front line. The soldiers who have finished the spears will go back to the rear of the army to return to the rear of the army formation. At the same time, they will also become obstacles for the comrades behind them to rush the spears.
If you don't rush forward, you will first run to catch the enemy as before, and then retreat and form a spear-blasting formation to rush forward, which will easily be entangled by the enemy. In this regard, the Ying army paid a bloody price. They were entangled by the desperate Qin army soldiers and could not retreat and list the spear-blasting formation at all, especially the Qin army soldiers who were injured but did not kill them. Taking advantage of the Ying army's characteristics that the Ying army did not abandon the injured, they bit the Ying army tightly.
Taking into account the disadvantages in the above two situations, some generals proposed the idea of whether they could be formed into a spear-storming formation before the troops were fought. In this way, there was no problem that the spear-storming route was blocked by the comrades, nor was there the problem that the soldiers who had finished the spear-storming were unable to go back to the rear of the military formation, nor was there the problem that the old Qin army soldiers who were desperate to take advantage of their own characteristics of not abandoning the wounded.
This is almost a perfect idea, but the general who opposed this pointed out the fatal flaw: his troops were not superior, and he listed a large spear storm formation with a depth of up to 60 rows before the battle. The width of the battle line would inevitably be greatly shortened, and there would be a large gap between the spear storm formations. The mature general believed that this was to completely give up his flanks, and the Qin army could easily attack his side, which was equivalent to slapping his sword and committing suicide.
Everyone agrees with the starting point; from this, the deduced array is simply arranged with spear-blasting arrays, and everyone's opinions are different.
The summer is hot, and the Chu Zhao generals in the argument are like Qi people fighting cocks, and they are arguing loudly while drinking the iced slurry. The Yue people are not bad, they know what the two sides are arguing. Yue people who understand Chu language and elegant language will also come to watch and listen. The Ba people and Qiang people who have just entered the venue are very puzzled. Are Chu people going to compete in martial arts? Chu people often compete in martial arts.
With the arrival of the guest, the generals of Chu Zhao, who were blushing, led the birds and beasts to scatter. Their thick red necks made the same sound: "I have seen the king."
"No gift." Chu Zhao general led him to sit in the western mat, treating him as his own. The chiefs of the Yue, Ba and Qiang tribes sat in the eastern mat, and this was the guest. Xiong Jing sat facing north and south, facing the green and cool Han River.
"I've seen the King of Chu." After the Chu Zhao general led the bow, the people of Yue, Ba, and Qiang bowed to Xiong Jing respectively. When it was Dahao's turn, he stood up and bowed lightly, and said in an inexplicable and elegant manner: "I asked the King of Chu to atone for his sins, but because the Qin people blocked it, he was late."
"It's okay." Xiong Jing on the chairman smiled. In order to let the hundreds of people at the banquet hear him, he voiced loudly. "However, was Dahao blocked by the Qin people, or was he aligned with the Qin people?"
"Union and harmony?" The general of Chu Zhao, who was sitting in the western seat, was shocked. The general of Zhao, who had always been calm and calm, died for the eldest son, defeated Jiu Jue. The Qiang people and Qin people negotiated peace with each other, not only did not send troops to attack Qin, but more importantly, they would betray the Right Army.
In addition to the generals of Chu and Zhao, when they heard the retelling of common events, the chiefs of the Yue people and Ba people were also panicked. Traitors could not tolerate it. Some chiefs even drew their swords in glaring. Finally, the chiefs of the Qiang people who came with Shi looked at their great fortune in disbelief. Some people instantly thought of a surprising old friend of Je Ying, while others looked at their great fortune and the King of Chu on the Chairman. They hoped that the two could explain in more language, preferably a misunderstanding.
Xiong Jing was silent, but his eyes were staring at Da Haoshi as if he had any substance; Shi had already petrified, and he was sweating and raining, as if he had just been fished out of the water. Gu Ying stayed in Qiang land to prepare for the Qin army's surprise attack. Gu Ying was not here, and he was martial but not good at eloquence, and he didn't know how to defend himself.
"The King of Chu insulted me!" He shouted subconsciously, and the man stood up and his hands were angrily opened.
"You want to Fusu to be in Qiang land, right?" Xiong Jing also stood up and never showed weakness.
"The King of Chu insulted me!!" Shi's face looked even more ferocious and he held it on the sword.
"You blame me for not marrying the princess, right?" Xiong Jing asked again, hitting the nail on the head.
"You insult me! You insult me!!" He became angry and forgot everything. He only knew that the tribe members were on the side, and he was trembling and was in a huge shame. What caused this shame was that the young man who had just grown a bearded more than ten steps away. If he killed him, everything would be over.
Knock——, he drew his sword, jumped out of the seat and rushed towards the circular empty field that was arranged for him.
"Irrespectful! Unruly!! You dare..." The guards on both sides of the chairman, the generals of the Chu and Zhao army shouted loudly at the same time, and a rapid sound of drawing the sword sounded.
"Stop!" Xiong Jing shouted loudly. Not only did he stop the soldiers and the generals, but he also stopped the Dahao Shi who was running closer.
