"Raider Zhao Guo?" If Wang Jian was to call the shots, he would go to attack Wei, not Zhao. The Wei army, which had been frightened and cowered in Daliang City, was far easier to deal with than the Zhao army. Although Daliang is a majestic fortified city, there is also a lot of food in the city. But is Handan easy to attack? Back then, Wang Yi suffered a big defeat under the city of Handan!

There were more than 20 people from Wang Ben, Yang Duanhe, the lieutenant of the Chinese military academy, and a group of senior officers, all gathered in Wang Qian's big tent, and no one spoke when they looked at Wang Jian who was frowning.

Attacking Zhao State, everyone knows how difficult this bone is. Even most of the Qin generals believed that if Li Mu was there, it would be difficult for the Qin people to defeat the Zhao state. The two defeats in Yi'an and Fanwu five years ago are still fresh in the memory of the Qin people. That was one of the few fiascos for the Qin people over the years.

Wang Ben moved his lips, but in the end he didn't say anything. He was able to stand here because he earned it by his ability, not because he was Wang Qian's son. However, among this group of people, he was the lowest in position, and he shouldn't have opened his mouth first at this time.

"General, the name of the king, we will attack the Zhao State. Now that Li Mudang is in Jingcheng, I'm afraid it won't be so easy for us to pass! Yang Duanhe still couldn't help but speak. He is the most fierce general under the Duke of Qi, and his military achievements have been the most prosperous over the years. Faintly has become the general star of Daqin's new generation of generals!

"Yes! I came to you to discuss this matter, Li Mu used soldiers strangely. He guards the well, and it's not easy for us to think about it. Not to mention anything else, the mountainous terrain of Jingcheng is extremely easy to ambush. Yiyang's defeat was to be ambushed by Li Mu, that guy is a master of ambushes. What's more, there is also a Sima Shang, who is also a difficult character, I heard that he is not yet thirty years old. If it is timely, I am afraid that it will be another Li Mu. Wang Jian sighed and said.

"Since the king has this royal order, we will send troops no matter what. It's just that the general has to make an idea of how to play. As long as the general gives an order, we will repay the king's kindness. "It was Li Xiao who spoke, he was also a general of the Gong Gong family, but he was much older than Yang Duan and him. Pingli Wang Jian also attaches the most importance to his opinion! Unexpectedly, at this juncture, he actually played a slippery head. I came to you to discuss how to attack Zhao, not to show loyalty.

The generals echoed one after another, making Wang Qian's brows twisted into a Sichuan character. No one expressed their opinions, which only showed that they had no choice, or that they were not optimistic about the battle of Zhao. It seems that Li Mu's shadow has been planted in their hearts, and cowardice before fighting is a taboo for soldiers. We have to think of a way to reverse this situation, otherwise this battle will not have to be fought at all.

"Li Mu is in Jingcheng, no matter how we detour, we can't bypass it. Even if you go around the mountain path, the supplies in the rear will be very vulnerable. Once strangled to death by Li Mu, how many people in the past will be killed. "The lieutenant of the Chinese military looked at the map, they were all old brothers for many years. Naturally, he knew the danger of this war, and according to his idea, it was best for all the generals to draw up a recital together, declare the interests and ask Jing Er to order a diversion to attack Wei.

After the lieutenant finished speaking, there was a silence in the military tent. Not a single one spoke, and the generals either looked down at the tops of their feet and studied the patterns on their boots. Or look up at the sky and ponder the roof of the military tent.

Wang Qian's calm face glanced at the generals under his command, Daqin has always been called the army of tigers and wolves. What's more, these guys are the elite of the elite, and Pingli is all arrogant masters, and now they are actually scared like this by Li Mu. It can be seen how big the impact of Yiyang's defeat has been on them.

"Since there is no one to make a plan, then the battalions will prepare their baggage. They are all old soldiers, and what do you need to march and fight in winter, you don't need to ask this general more. Spirits, firewood and charcoal are all indispensable. If you lack anything, just go to the baggage camp to get it, you can take as much as you can, there are no supplies along the way! Wang Jian ordered helplessly.

"Wealth touches people's hearts." Wang Jian had to consider the divisive plan proposed by Li Si, Wei Yi and others.

Sun Tzu has a saying, so there are five uses: there is a cause, there is an inner room, there is a reverse room, there is a death room, and there is a life room. The five rooms are all up, I don't know the way, it is called the god era, and the treasure of the human king. Because of the intermediary, because of the villagers to use it. Those who are in the middle are used because of their officials. Those who oppose it are used because of their enemies. Those who are dead, for the sake of telling the outside world, let us know it, and spread it among the enemy. Those who are alive will also be repaid.

To put it simply, there are five types of spies: there are causal intervals, intervening interstitials, intervening interstitials, intervening interstitials, and intervening intersperses. When all five types of spies are used at the same time, the enemy is unpredictable and incomprehensible, which is a wonderful truth, and it is a magic weapon for the monarch to defeat the enemy. The so-called inma refers to the use of ordinary people in the enemy's country to act as spies. The so-called inner room refers to bribing officials of enemy countries to be spies. The so-called rebellion refers to bribing or using spies sent by the enemy to work for us. The so-called death refers to deliberately spreading false information so that our spies know about it and pass it on to the enemy, who often executes them after being fooled. The so-called Ikuma refers to those who can return to the enemy alive after being sent to the enemy to reconnoitre.

Vast forests, vast fields, endless grasslands, tall mountains, clear clear water...... The nature of nature is so beautiful and charming, spectacular and majestic!

The villages burned down like ruins, the meadows that burned down like thousands of miles of red, and the corpses of people and animals who died in the war like ravines...... All this did not make Meng Yi feel a sharp pain from the heart: "Whether it is the Qin people or the Zhao people, they are all the people of Huaxia, why bother killing each other like this!" It seems that the pace of reunification must be accelerated, and no more dead people can be killed! ”

Looking at the other people next to him, Dong Rou and the others in the Guigu lineage were all indignant, obviously very dissatisfied with Qin Cheng's tyranny; And the Qin soldiers are very natural, obviously they have long been accustomed to the tragic scene in this troubled world, maybe they themselves have done it themselves! Looking at the remnants of the war that had become a wild dog paradise, Meng Yi had no heart or time to care, but silently accelerated the speed of the army's advance and quickly rushed to the front line of Fanwu.

The vehicles used by the Qin army to transport large quantities of war materials were similar to the manufacturing process of chariots, except that the vehicles used for transportation were wider and rougher. Moreover, the Qin army's way of tying was also very unique, they often tied the belt of the horse to the shoulder blade and abdomen of the horse, so that the power of the horse's shoulder blade and abdomen could be borrowed to pull the cart, so that the belt would not compress the horse's throat even when the horse was running fast. However, Meng Yi vaguely remembered that in the West until the eighth century, the way of tying was to use a belt to tie the horse's throat to tow the car, and as a result, once the speed was a little faster, the horse would often die of suffocation! Thinking of this, Meng Yi did not secretly laugh at the so-called advanced historical tradition of Westerners!

What surprised Meng Yi even more was that almost every car on the car was piled up like a hill, and it was estimated that it weighed at least about a ton; Coupled with the weight of the vehicle and the emperor, I am afraid that the normal towing weight of the two-horse tractor transport vehicle used by the Qin army is about 1.5 tons!

That's a staggering number! And Meng Yi also calculated: the transport vehicles he sees every day are more than 1,000, so even if it is counted in half a month from Xianyang to Fanwu, the total number of vehicles that provide grain and grass supplies for the 400,000 troops on the front line is more than 30,000!! What a frightening number!

Meng Yi didn't deeply feel how good the logistics and transportation of the Qin army were! Having a strong logistics and transportation capacity is also an important factor for the Qin State to successfully defeat the Six Kingdoms! This point cannot but be said to be due to the fact that both commoners and nobles in the Qin State were extremely obsessed with the custom of driving.

The Zhao army, under the command of the general Li Mu and the deputy general Sima Shang, continued to fight against the Qin army. Although the Qin army fought hard, the victory was not decided.

Soon, Wang Jian and Yang Duanhe and the two armies successively engaged Li Mu and Lian Yue's two armies, and the land of Jizhou was suddenly full of flames and gunsmoke. The shrewd and terrifying Li Mu organized all the peasants on the border, and set up a beacon tower at intervals, so that the predetermined signal could not only report the invasion of the enemy, but also the type and number of troops of the enemy army could be clearly and accurately reported in terms of the type and number of beacons. Therefore, as long as the Qin army has any action, Li Mu can quickly find the enemy's traces, so Li Mu can not only sit and command the Fanwu line, but even easily and quickly command the Lianyue army on the southern line of Handan!

In this way, as soon as the poor Qin army entered the Zhao realm, it was like entering a quagmire, and they would be attacked by the militia at any time, including many old people, children and women, and it was even more common for the water source to be poisoned. In the past, the Qin army was very fond of fighting in the Zhao realm, because the people of the Zhao state were generally wealthy, and they could plunder after the capture, but now when they enter the Zhao realm, they may be attacked and poisoned at any time, and the Qin soldiers who have suffered heavy casualties regard the Zhao realm as a ghost domain.

In the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed, and because Li Mu has defended the law, Wang Jian and Yang Duanhe and the Second Route Army have failed to move forward even though they have tried their best, and the war has become anxious for a while. When Xianyang heard that the battle situation ahead was unfavorable, King Yingzheng of Qin, who was displeased, immediately ordered Yang Duanhe and Wang Jian to launch a fierce attack on both sides again, but unfortunately they were all cleverly repelled by Li Mu's design, and they used extremely weak troops.

In the fierce battle between the two armies of Qin and Zhao, the Qin army wanted to find the main force of the Zhao army to fight, but it was difficult to do it, Li Mu always seemed to be unable to shrink, but as long as the Qin army was not careful, Li Mu's troops would suddenly come like the wind and annihilate the small forces of the Qin army attacking everywhere. He used his troops really as stated in the "Art of War" - like the snake of Changshan, the head is the tail, the tail is the first, and the tail is the first, and the end is the end.

The cavalry of the Zhao army was a nightmare for the Qin soldiers, fluctuating, rapid and uncertain, unable to prevent it, and even Li Xin, who was the best at using cavalry as a surprise tactic behind enemy lines, also felt a big headache. As a result, not only was the Qin army in the camp disturbed by the Zhao army's iron cavalry at night, but the Qin army's baggage logistics, and even the grain road were often robbed, making the whole Qin army a little precarious.
