In the following year (224 B.C.), Wang Jian Mengwu led an army of 600,000 troops still according to Li Xin's march route, and after entering the front line of Chenyi and Pingyu, he accepted the lesson of Li Xin's rash attack failure, and the army stopped going deeper, and joined forces for more than ten miles, and held the wall. The king of Chu did not dare to take it lightly, and he also poured the troops of the whole country to defend him. Xiang Yan came to challenge many times, but the Qin army should not fight.

Li Tangshan was so idle that he was about to get moldy, so he went to Shi Lu to chat. After Shi Lu and Li Tangshan went through the Zhao Tuo martial arts competition, they had a good relationship like brothers. Everyone has nothing to do anyway, so it's better to go to the river to catch a few fish and make grilled fish, first, to beat the time, and second, to supplement nutrition.

Li Tangshan and Shi Lu came to the Yingshui River and found that there were already a few little baby soldiers catching fish by the river.

It seems that the weather is good today, the river is quite clear, and you can even see fish swimming around in the river.

Li Tangshan saw a baby soldier catch a fish, and released him again after a while. Li Tangshan felt very strange, so he spoke: "Little brother, why did you catch the fish and let it go?" ”

When the child soldier saw someone asking him, he looked up at Li Tangshan: "They are too small, they will come and catch them when they grow up." ”

Shi Lu: "Don't you be afraid that I will go down to the river to catch them and cook them for a while, and they will not have a chance to grow up!" ”

The baby soldier glanced at Shi Lu and ignored him! Keep catching fish. Shi Lu saw that the baby soldier ignored him, and he was a little angry and scolded.

Li Tangshan looked at Shi Lu's angry appearance and was very funny: "Chief Shi Wu, what are you angry about?" You stand here near the abyss, envy the fish, it is better to retreat and close the net. Go down and catch fish! ”

The child soldier raised his head and looked at Li Tangshan, and his eyes lit up: "What did you just say, what kind of net?" ”

Li Tangshan: "It is better to retreat and close the net." ”

Child Soldier: "That's right! I understand! ”

The child soldier climbed up the river bank and came to Li Tangshan: "What's your name?" How did I find out that there were such knowledgeable people in the army before? ”

Li Tangshan looked at the young man in front of him curiously: "Li Tangshan, just enlisted in the army for a year. ”

The baby soldier said to Li Tangshan: "My name is Li Xin, and we are our family." ”

Shi Lu said openly: "Li Xin, you are Li Xin, the straw bag general who defeated the battle. ”

Li Xin glared at Shi Lu and said, "You're right, I'm the straw bale general. I used to think I was very good! I had a big defeat last year, which made me know that I was still too young and fell for Xiang Yan's plan. ”

Li Tangshan interrupted Li Xin and said: "Failure is the mother of success, and a failure does not mean anything. ”

Li Xin turned his head to Li Tangshan and said, "Thank you!" Li Tangshan, you are really my lucky star, solve the doubts in my heart. Yes, failure is the mother of success! I'm going to start all over again! Linyuan envy fish is better to retreat and close the net, I will do things in a down-to-earth manner. ”

Li Tangshan: "The king's soldiers, victory is not arrogant, defeat is not resentful." ”

Li Xin: "Sooner or later, I will find all the glory that belongs to me!" , Li Tangshan is very reasonable! ”

Shi Lu: "Li Xin, just rely on this. I've taken away what I just said! ”

Li Xin said happily: "I caught a lot of fish today, and I will give half of it to you." ”

Li Tangshan saw that Li Xin had caught a lot of fish, and now the river water is a little cold. So he said, "Then you're welcome!" Laugh it off! Captain Wu, the grilled fish has fallen tonight. ”

Shi Lu said to Li Xin: "Li Xin, you give us the big one, we have a lot of food." ”

Li Xin seemed to untie the knot and smiled at Shi Lu: "Elder Wu, how can I say that I am also a general, do you know what military discipline is." Can't you just be polite when you speak? ”

Shi Lu grinned and said, "Wait a minute, let my subordinate Li Tangshan make you a grilled fish, you won't let me be polite after you taste it." ”

Li Xin is only 15 years old this year, but he has already made countless achievements, after all, he is still a child, and he doesn't compare with Shi Lu Ji when he hears about delicious food. So I discussed with Shi Lu how to make grilled fish, which is the most delicious. Throwing the fish to Li Tangshan to deal with, Li Tangshan shook his head at the two of them, who called himself just a small infantryman.

While Li Tangshan was cooking grilled fish, Shi Lu and Li Xin caught a pheasant from a nearby forest.

Shi Lu quickly took out the pheasant entrails and put some salt in them. The pheasant was covered in mud from the river and placed directly in the fire, where it was made for roast fish and chicken on the bottom. Li Tangshan smelled the tempting aroma of the grilled fish, and knew that the grilled fish was cooked.

Li Xin and Shi Lu ate happily, and Li Tangshan looked at the sky and looked suspicious. He couldn't help but miss his family and Uncle Zhuo, and Tian Li, Chen Ke and He Tingting, who he missed every day, came.

"The clouds of my hometown are floating in the sky, it keeps calling to me, when the breeze around me blows gently, there is a voice calling to me, come back, come back, wandering wanderer, come back, come back, don't wander around...."Li Tangshan couldn't help but sing "The Cloud of Hometown"

Li Xin watched Li Tangshan sing to his heart's content, and his beautiful melody also reminded him of his father, who was still the wife who passed through the door. Li Xin thought: "Where is this Li Tangshan sacred, and what kind of person is he?" ”

Shi Lu came over and patted Li Tangshan and said, "What kind of broken song are you singing, listen to me sing two minor tunes for you?" ”

Shi Lu rapped and sang: "Touch your head!" It's so gentle!

Touch your back! Sleep with me!

Touch your waist! What a coquette!

Touch your hand! Come with me!

Touch your legs! That's a lot of water! ”

Li Xin shook his head and watched Shi Lusa sing with a heartfelt voice, startling the night birds around him. Li Xin listened to Shi Lu's broken song of the scenery, got up in a fit of anger and kicked Shi Lu's ass hard, and then ran back to the barracks.

Shi Lu fell on a big horse, Li Tangshan also shook his head, and walked towards the barracks regardless of Shi Lu.

Shi Lu got up, just wanted to scold, but when he saw Li Tangshan and Li Xin running away, he had no choice but to catch up in the direction of Li Tangshan.

Early the next morning, Li Xin came to Li Tangshan to chat.

Li Xin asked, "Li Tangshan, what do you say is the matter with General Wang?" Xiang Yan came to challenge many times, but the Qin army should not fight. The soldiers can't stand it! They all have itchy hands and want to fight. ”

Li Tangshan asked rhetorically: "Do you know why you were defeated?" It's not because you're not capable. ”

Li Xin blinked, and was about to listen! Li Tangshan stopped and didn't speak. Li Xin anxiously asked, "What is the reason?" Hurry up! ”

Li Tangshan smiled and kept silent.

Li Xin's itching was very uncomfortable, and Shi Lu couldn't stand it even when he was on the side.

"Li Tangshan, why do you look like a girl, arouse Lao Tzu's interest, and don't say the answer!"

Li Tangshan still smiled and said nothing.

Li Xin was so anxious that he jumped to his feet and kicked Shi Lu hard.

Shi Lu scolded: "Li Xin, what are you kicking me for?" You are right to kick Li Tangshan! ”

Li Xin saw that Li Tangshan was still pretending to be mysterious, so he said: "Li Tangshan, I beg you, my grandfather!" You tell me why? ”

Li Tangshan felt that it was no longer interesting to pretend, so he stretched out a finger: "One word forbearance." ”

Li Xin was even more puzzled: "Don't understand? ”

Shi Lu also scolded impatiently: "Li Tangshan, don't pretend to be forced, don't be dumb." What does that mean exactly? ”

Li Tangshan explained carefully: "Did General Wang Jian order the soldiers to recuperate and slaughter cattle and sheep every day, and he ate with the soldiers. ”

Li Xin nodded: "Each of us knows this. ”

Li Tangshan continued: "The two armies held each other for a year, and the Qin soldiers were idle every day throwing stones and playing, and they all wanted to rush to the battlefield immediately to kill the enemy. ”

Li Xin nodded: "We also know this." ”
