"This is natural, cavalry is actually infantry on horseback, and the mobility is a little stronger. However, the crossbow arrows of our Qin cavalry are far beyond the craftsmanship of Zhao State, and even if they meet, they will not suffer a big loss. "Li Xin came from a family of cavalry generals, and his understanding of cavalry far exceeded that of ordinary generals.

"In this case, it is better for our troops to be divided into two routes: the north is commanded by Li Xin, plus Wang Ben and Zhang Han, to attract the main force of the enemy's cavalry, take advantage of it, and contain the enemy if there is no chance; In the south, my brothers and sisters of the Meng family are in charge to see if they can bypass the enemy's obstruction and sneak attack the enemy's logistics. Meng Yi put forward a decent strategy, the so-called art of war, in fact, the simpler the strategy, the easier it is to win. This is the truth of the road to simplicity.

"Surprise soldiers, often try and fail! The key is whether you can surprise the enemy. But you eat meat, you can't let your brothers smell it, right? Li Xin and Wang Ben exchanged glances with each other and teased.

"Don't worry, we'll go to the coach for the record now, and when it's done, the credit will be split in half, how about it?" When Meng Yi heard this, he naturally understood the truth of "sharing blessings and difficulties".

"Haha...... It's a pleasure to talk to smart people. We happily decided. Li Xin and the others laughed and agreed.

When everyone was ready, the Meng Yi brothers set off with six thousand cavalry.

"Second brother, why don't you let Li Xin and the others sneak attack the enemy army? Going behind enemy lines in person for something so dangerous doesn't seem to fit your character? Meng Tian finally couldn't help it, found a vacancy, grabbed Meng Yi and asked quietly.

"Do you think I want to, my army decided to stick to the strategy of the city, and only sent cavalry to fight locally. There are at least 100,000 cavalry in the coalition army, and the cavalry command level of our two brothers is far inferior to Li Xin and others. Besides, the battlefield of more than 100,000 people, the sword soldiers have no eyes, I don't touch that brow! Meng Yi analyzed with a smile, thinking: What are you kidding, even if you don't become cannon fodder when you go to the battlefield, it is common for you to be injured and disabled, and I have an even more arduous glorious task!

"Huh...... I said when did our family Meng Yi suffer a loss! This is like you who are superior in resourcefulness! Meng Tian finally understood and chuckled.

"You're not trying to say I'm afraid of death, are you? I'm not ashamed to be afraid of death, I'm just afraid of death, what can you do with me? Meng Yi knew this brother who was known for his bravery too well, and he was inexplicably happy when he looked at his appearance that he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh.

"Haha...... I really want to laugh, but who dares to say that you are afraid of death, Lao Tzu is the first to refuse! Meng Tian finally couldn't help it and laughed, "When I was a child, I still laughed at you Muleng, who knew that you would become more and more able to plan, you seem to be greedy for life and afraid of death, but when it is time to go, you are braver than anyone else!" ”

"Am I Mulen?" Meng Yi was a little confused, but then understood that it must have been before he crossed over, "Brother, don't be careless, we are going to sneak attack this time, take advantage of it if it is cheap, withdraw if it is not cheap, don't fall in love with the war!" ”

"I understand this, the number of coalition cavalry is superior, and we are going deep behind enemy lines, so fools are going to fight hard!" Meng Tian agreed heartily.

The Meng Yi brothers led the army south from Lishan and sneaked all the way along the Qinling Mountains. Fortunately, there were hunters in the army who were familiar with the Qin Mountains, otherwise Meng Yi would definitely get lost.

At this time, the Qinling Mountains were uninhabited for hundreds of miles. Although it caused a lot of supply difficulties for the Qin army, compared with the coalition army, the Qin army was still more familiar with geography and could often find some additional supplies.

In a narrow sense, the Qinling Mountains extend to the Bahe River and Danjiang River valleys in the east, and to the Jialing River in the west. In a broad sense, the Qinling Mountains refer to the mountain range that runs through China in an east-west direction. From Baishi Mountain in Gansu in the west, it enters Shaanxi through Maiji Mountain in the east, and is divided into three branches at the junction of Shaanxi and Henan, Funiu Mountain in the south, Kunshan Mountain in the north, and Bear's Ear Mountain in the middle branch. Because of its peculiar climate and temperature, the line of the Huai River in the Qinling Mountains has become the geographical dividing line between the north and the south in China.

The Qinling Mountains are the dragon veins of Chinese civilization, the main peak Taibai Mountain is located in the territory of Baoji City, and the Qinling Mountains are the boundary mountains of the Guanzhong Plain and the Hanzhong Basin.

The western section of the Qinling Mountains includes Nanqi Mountain, Fengling, Zibai Mountain, Chaiguanling, Qingjiang River, Jialing River, Fushui River, Baohe River, etc.

The middle section of the Qinling Mountains is also known as Zhongnan Mountain, including Sifangtai, Shouyang Mountain, Zhongnan Mountain and Dongguang Bald Mountain, etc., which is the birthplace of Feng River, Lihe River, Chan River, Meridian River and Qian River. The birthplace of the tributaries of the Ganges River and the Shu River. Lishan is a broken block mountain outside the northern foot of the middle section of the Qinling Mountains in Shaanxi, and the main peak is Renzong Temple.

The eastern section of the Qinling Mountains is finger-shaped, stretching to the southeast. The main crest of the Qinling Mountains is Caolianling, Taihua Mountain, Mangling, Liuling, Huling, Xinkailing, Danjiang and Nanluojiang.

Although the mountain is silent, it is not silent. The waterfall that rushed down was its roar like a crack in the earth; The babbling stream is the voice of its beautiful piano; The bubbling spring water is a display of its beautiful singing voice; The roaring pine waves are the protest of the mountain against the raging wind; The crisp tick is a record of the passing years of the mountain.

The verdant mountains are overlapped, like the undulating waves of the sea, surging and majestic. The mountains are majestic, the peaks are beautiful, the ancient vines are entangled, the winding paths are secluded, the world is upright, the four seasons are eternal, and all things are enlightened. The mountain waves are high and the peaks are stacked. The mountains are black and boundless, and the cliffs like knives and axes stand above the sky.

Meng Yi and the others hid in the mountains for three days, and finally came to the Yin Jin region. The famous battle of Yin and Jin in history took place here. The Battle of Yin and Jin took place in 389 BC, when the Qin State raised 500,000 troops to attack Xihe County of Wei State, and was defeated by the county guard Wu Qi with 50,000 Wei troops, which was a famous war in which fewer victories and more defeats. Although the Wei army was small but all well-equipped Wei soldiers, although there were many Qin soldiers, most of them were simply armed Qin peasants, and in this war with absolute gaps in equipment and morale training, the Qin army was powerless to resist in the face of the powerful Wei army. was repeatedly rushed and killed by Wei Wushu and penetrated the army formation many times, causing 500,000 Qin troops to flee in defeat, and achieved a brilliant record of winning more with less. The defeat in the battle of Yin and Jin, as well as the instability of the domestic political situation, made the "princes humble Qin", prompted the reform of the Qin kings in later dynasties, and laid a good foundation for the Shang Dynasty to change the law. It can be said that the rise of the Qin State began with the Battle of Yin and Jin. It's really a defeat and a yin jin, and a success is also a yin jin!

"Yin Jin is really a good place, will history leave a strong mark here today?" Meng Yi couldn't help but think hard, and thought to himself: The last battle in history to attack Qin was a great victory for the Qin army in Yucheng, what does it have to do with Yin and Jin?

"Second brother, the scout has sent news that the coalition army has found a grain transport team." Meng Tian interrupted Meng Yi's musings.

"What is the specific situation of the enemy? How many people are in the convoy? How is the equipment? Meng Yi hurriedly asked, they had already wasted too much time in the mountains.

"The allied army's grain convoy was divided into five parts, and each of the five free armies escorted it on its own, with the number of people ranging from 5,000 to 1,000, adding up to a total of 10,000. The equipment is also uneven. But compared to our equipment, that's still far from it. Meng Tian briefly described the situation of the enemy army.

"The armies of the five countries are transported separately? This shows that the armies of the five countries actually do not trust each other, and they are only afraid of being attacked by us when they move together. Meng Yi thought for a while, and then remembered some questions that were easy to ignore, "How many people are there in the army?" And how many carriages are there? ”

"There are about 20,000 people, tens of thousands of carriages." Meng Tian added, and then asked heartily, "What are you worried about?" ”

"Pang Xuan is not a mediocre and incompetent person, he will definitely strengthen his guard to prevent our sneak attack, presumably these people have also undergone some training. If we attack rashly, the enemy will most likely defend in wagons, and even if we can burn a batch of grain and grass, we will be miserable when the enemy's cavalry reinforcements arrive. Meng Yi pondered for a moment and pointed out the problem.

"So the attack must be taken by surprise, and it must be evacuated quickly enough, otherwise I am afraid that there will be no advantage." Meng Tian also came to his senses, and then he was a little worried, "The terrain in the Yin and Jin regions is flat, which is conducive to the reinforcement of the enemy's cavalry. And the grain transport team has tens of thousands of wagons to defend in formation, how can they quickly break the enemy? ”

"Brother, do you remember how we broke Han Teng's army in Bison Town?" Meng Yi smiled, revealing a sly gaze.

"Fire Bull Formation? However, it is strictly forbidden to slaughter ploughing cattle without permission in the territory of Qin, and this punishment is very heavy! Meng Tian had some difficulty accepting this suggestion.

"If the Qin State is defeated, what's the use of keeping these ploughing cattle? Besides, if we are in a hurry to do the right thing, with the support of the king, the military bigwigs will also support us. "Meng Yi doesn't care about it at the moment, because under the strong attack, how many people can go back with the six thousand cavalry under his command? This is a multiple-choice question that must be trade-off.

"Military bosses? Well, I hope that the king will be wise and martial, and don't set us up as a model. Meng Tian must have thought of Meng Fei's grandfather for the first time, and he became a lot bolder.

Meng Yi sent 5,000 cavalry to the towns and villages in the rear to collect cattle by military order, and of course said that there would be heavy compensation after victory. However, Meng Yi thought to himself: If he loses, can this heavy compensation be saved? But presumably King Yingzheng of Qin must be more willing to hemorrhage.

Thinking about the appearance of King Yingzheng of Qin in the future, Meng Yi was happy, after all, it was also a thing worth boasting about to make a generation of emperors Qin Shi Huang deflated.

"Haha, let everyone collect more cattle, the more the better." Meng Yi was in a very happy mood at the moment, in fact, even he couldn't tell why he was dissatisfied with King Yingzheng of Qin? Is it because he is domineering and pursues the chivalrous Dong Rou?

Meng Yi put aside his troublesome thoughts and concentrated on discussing the specific details of the surprise attack with his brother Meng Tian.

Three days later, the teams that collected the cattle returned. In order to hide their whereabouts, the team took advantage of the night to move and specially picked mountain roads and trails to assemble.

"Three hundred ploughing cattle, three times more than the last time in Bison Town. It's enough for the allied food team to drink a pot! Meng Yi rubbed his palms violently, extremely excited.
