In Shanyang City, Meng Fu and Meng Wu father and son stand opposite each other.

Compared with the 200,000 Chu army, the 100,000 Wei army is obviously weaker, and it stands to reason that Meng Fu should attack the Wei army first.

However, the commander of the Wei army is a famous general Lian Po, and it is not so easy to bargain for a famous general like Lian Po.

Comparatively speaking, the seemingly powerful Chu army will be the breakthrough point of the Qin army.

Although the state of Chu is strong, the state of Chu lacks famous generals who are brave and good at fighting, and most of the nobles of the state of Chu are extravagant and lack the fierce characteristics of the generals of Qin and Zhao.

The last time the nations attacked Qin in history, Lü Buwei chose to defeat the powerful Chu army first, which caused the coalition army to collapse.

The Chu military camp is full of dancing and music.

Even if the Chu army is now in a state of war, Chu nobles such as Chun Shenjun still haven't forgotten to enjoy it.

More than a dozen high-ranking generals of the Chu State, all dressed in brocade clothes, held wine lords with a smile on their faces, and toasted to the people nearby.

In the center of the tent, the graceful Chu women sang and danced, and the graceful and delicate body made the eyes of many Chu generals shine.

"General, it's a state of war now, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate?"

Fortunately, in the Chu army, it is not all these nobles who are addicted to alcohol, and there are also Xiang Yan, who was born in the general's family, to remind him (I made a mistake earlier, Xiang Yan is Xiang Yu's grandfather, and it is speculated that the age should be around twenty-seven or eighteen).

At this time, Xiang Yan, although he inherited the family title, did not have too prominent records, if he was not from an extraordinary background, he was not qualified to be included in the list at all.

Chun Shenjun Huang Xie, who was originally in good spirits, heard Xiang Yan's voice, and his smile immediately froze on his face.

The rest of the drunken and hazy generals were also a little unhappy when they heard this.

According to the tradition of the Chu State, it is very common for nobles to enjoy singing and dancing even if they are in the army, but today it is mentioned in public by a person who is less than thirty years old, how can the generals of the Chu State be happy in their hearts?

"This time, the Chu and Wei coalition armies have a total of 300,000 people, and the Shanyang Qin army has only 100,000, and they are still besieged in the city by our regiments."

"The soldiers have been exhausted for a long time, and it is indispensable to drink and relax, how can you know the reason for the first battle?"

Fortunately, Huang Xie thought about Xiang Yan's family background, but he didn't say anything to reprimand, just a vague warning.

Unexpectedly, Xiang Yan didn't seem to hear the meaning of Huang Xie's words, and got up and said loudly: "Although the Chu and Wei coalition forces have 300,000, they are divided into six places to besiege Shanyang. ”

Xiang Yan likes to read military books since he was a child, plus he was born in a family of generals, and he has great hatred for the Qin State for many years of humiliation of Chu, so he is strict with himself, and secretly swears at a young age that sooner or later he will lead the king of Chu to attack Qin, and he will be ashamed of the king.

Therefore, even if Xiang Yan is also a nobleman of Chu State, he lacks the extravagance of the nobles of Chu State, and has more of the iron blood and slaughter of soldiers.

"Bang!"

When Huang Xie heard this, he suddenly slapped the wine glass in his hand on the desk, and his face was extremely gloomy.

Huang Xie, as one of the only remaining four princes of the Warring States and the minister of Chu, has long been famous all over the world and has reached the pinnacle of life.

It is no exaggeration to say that Huang Xie's status in the Chu State is second only to the King of Chu, and even the Chu State clan has to give Huang Xie a few thin faces.

It's been a long time, and no one dares to confront Huang Xie.

"So what do you think Ben does?"

At this time, everyone put down the wine glasses in their hands, and even the singers who were dancing stopped and slowly withdrew.

Inside the tent, there was an eerie silence. Everyone knew that Chun Shenjun Huang Xie was angry.

Although Xiang Yan is a relatively pure general, he is not unsophisticated, how can he not see that he has angered Huang Xie.

However, sometimes you know that this is not good, but for the sake of the bigger picture, you have to do it.

Chu and Qin have been at war for many years, and they don't know how much humiliation they have suffered, Xiang Yan, as the heir of the Jiangmen family of Chu State, is naturally obliged to save this country.

He clasped his hands into fists and said loudly: "The two armies are facing each other, as a general, you should lead by example and keep a clear head, otherwise when the enemy army comes to attack, there is no general to command, and no matter how many soldiers there are, it will only be a plate of scattered sand." “

"According to the opinion of the last general, Xiangguo should remove the banquet, singing and dancing, and order the prohibition of alcohol in the army."

"Although the camp was established, there are many loopholes in many places, for the sake of the safety of the commander and the officers and soldiers of the three armies, the camp should be strengthened, and the forest in front of the camp should be cut down, so that the vision in the camp becomes wide, so that there are no enemy troops hiding in the forest and launching an attack at night."

"In addition, from the camp to a radius of thirty miles, when the scouts are sent to monitor all places, so that whether the Qin army in the city launches a surprise attack, or the Korean reinforcements intend to enter the city, our army can grasp the intelligence in advance and deal with it calmly!"

Xiang Yan held his head high and talked eloquently, although the things he said were simple and easy to understand, they were also some very important military precautions.

Although these generals of the Chu State were extravagant, most of them had studied since childhood, and they were not completely ignorant of the art of war, and after listening to Xiang Yan's advice, even if they were still a little unhappy in their hearts, no one said anything to refute them.

After all, what Xiang Yan suggested was beneficial and disadvantageous to Chu Jun.

The anger on Huang Xie's face slowly subsided, and he began to look at the young man in front of him carefully.

Huang Xie was not familiar with Xiang Yan before, and this time Xiang Yan was able to follow the army on the expedition, which was also specially arranged by the King of Chu.

For this reason, Huang Xie also specially asked the king of Chu why he made such an arrangement.

The king of Chu said that in the letters between the eldest princess Mifu and Zhao Jia, Xiang Yan was mentioned, especially Zhao Jia, the king of Pingqi, saying that Xiang Yan was a talent of a general, and sooner or later he would be the pillar of the Chu State.

Today's Zhao Jia is no longer what it used to be, especially the other party's ability to recognize people, which is even more famous in the world.

With Zhao Jia's recommendation, coupled with Xiang Yu's background in Jiangmen, his ancestors were even more famous, the King of Chu simply ordered him to go with the army, and he also wanted to see if this person who was highly respected by Zhao Jia had real talent and learning.

If it is really as Zhao Jia said, the king of Chu does not mind gradually pushing Xiang Yan to the throne.

After all, although the Chu State is strong, it lacks world-famous generals, and even Huang Xie and others are getting older and older, and the Chu State should indeed start cultivating young people.

Thinking of what the King of Chu had said to him, Huang Xie said in a deep voice: "In this case, the prime minister has given you the right to mobilize troops and horses, and you can use the power in your hands to send scouts out to reconnoiter or adjust the defense of the camp at will. ”

Huang Xie's reaction was beyond everyone's expectations, and even Xiang Yan felt incredible.

After the shock, Xiang Yan immediately knelt on one knee and shouted: "Thank you Xiangguo for your trust, Xiang Yan will definitely build the camp as solid as gold!" ”
