Wang Jian shook his head a little when he heard Lairen, and then listened to King Qi Wei's praise, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and his brows stretched a little after a long time. The barbarians are already difficult to fight, and they are equipped with the best armor in the world, and the degree of difficulty is estimated to be comparable to that of the Chu army, fortunately, there are not many of this army, and they are all foot soldiers, otherwise the war will be like the Zhao State for a few years.

After Wang Ao finished speaking, Jimo and Lairen, Wang Ben was still standing in front of him, Wang Jian saw that he still had something to do, and asked, "What else is going on?" ”

"And ...... "Wang Ben came from the direction of the shogunate, and the news he brought was not only that the Jimo army had entered Linzi." Xianyang ordered me, and all the witch weapons in the army were transported into Xianyang. ”

Relying on thirty witch weapons all the way to attack the city, now there are only five left, and Wang Ben is reluctant to hand over these witch weapons. Wang Jian was as open-minded as he was just now, and raised his hand to the trebuchet behind him and said, "The weapon to break the city is enough." ”

The artillery is extremely sharp, and the trebuchets are more powerful than you can imagine. When the Zhao people retreated, they burned hundreds of trebuchets in Handan City, but they only burned them, and did not destroy the copper bearings at the junction of the boom. Shaofu craftsmen soon built more than 100 trebuchets, which were in Wang Qian's army and marched to Linzi with the army.

"Does the witch medicine need to be transported into Xianyang?" Wang Ao asked.

"It seems that there is no witch medicine." Wang Ben recalled the news, he rode fast on horseback, and now the military officials who gave the order arrived in a hurry. Witch medicine is also on the list, but it is not said that all of them. Hearing this, Wang Ao nodded heavily, and Qin Jun had witch medicine in addition to trebuchets. Although he hadn't seen how the witch medicine broke the city with his own eyes, he had seen the description of the witch medicine breaking the city in the Governor's Mansion.

After a bang, the entire section of the city wall flew into the sky. If you think about it carefully, this is the same as exploding the chamber, if the witch weapon of the Chu army is filled with too much witch medicine, it will also explode like the Qin army is now after ignition. With those witch medicines, the Qin army can also break through the city like the Chu army. Thinking of this, Wang Ao suggested: "I thought that our army should arrive at Linzi as soon as possible, otherwise, the Jing people would also arrive." ”

"Oh. Is there a news from Jing Ren? Wang Qian, Wang Ben, and Wang Qian's heart, Liu Chi, all looked at Wang Ao. The Qin State knew very little about the Chu State, especially about the movements of the Chu army. Qi and Chu broke off diplomatic relations, and the Marquis of Qin has been spreading the news that the Qi army's fraud led to the death of the general Xiang Yan in Daliang, and with the temperament of the Chu people, it is impossible for them to come to Qi's aid. But these are speculations, and no one can guarantee this.

Under the gaze of several people, Wang Ao said: "I don't know. However, I know that King Jing will save all people. Our army should rush to Linzi, pull out Linzi, and the Qi country will die. ”

"Not really." Wang Jian smiled again, and only a trace of resoluteness flashed in his eyes. "The battle of exterminating Qi must be repeated, and only repetition can destroy Qi. How many days can Jing people save Qi? March, half a year? A year? The Jing people attacked our Hanzhong because of the convenient terrain of Hanzhong, and their troops were in Jing State, such as building water on top of a high house. The Jing people will pull out Hanzhong and get Bashu, Bashu will be taken by the Jing people, and Ji Ying will be stable. If you can't fight in Hanzhong, you won't stop fighting. ”

Wang Jian said that Wang Ao was stunned, but when he thought about it, it was indeed the case. How long can Chu Jun save Qi? Once the Chu army rescued Qi, the troops in the direction of Shang Yu and Hanzhong would be gone. Attacking Hanzhong and Bashu is the most important thing for Chu State, no matter how Chu saves Qi, it is only for a while, and when the spring passes, they will take advantage of the rising river water in summer to attack Hanzhong and Bashu.

"Then our army ......" Wang Ao felt that he shouldn't export as soon as he said this, in this situation, the strategy of the Qin army was obvious, he didn't need to ask more, asking more would only make him look stupid.

Lixiayi is 290 miles away from Linzi, and it takes at least nine days to travel 30 miles a day. Even if Wang Ao urged all the way, it still took ten days for the Qin army to arrive at Linzi. More than 500,000 troops suddenly appeared in the wilderness west of Linzi City, and the police drum at the head of Linzi City sounded again, and this time the Qi people were not as flustered as last time.

"Qin people!" The place where the Qin army camped was ten miles away from Linzi, and it was impossible to see that it was an army as far as the eye could see from ten miles away, but a rugged mountain. Tian Zong raised Lu Lijing and looked at it for a while before nodding and putting it down.

"Chu... According to the Chu people, Wang Qian's army has more than 500,000 people? Du Sima Tianyang could not hide his worries. The 500,000 army was encamped ten miles away from Linzi, and he felt weak when he thought about it.

"What's the fear of that?" Tian Zong was not worried about Wang Qian's more than 500,000 Qin troops at all. "The Qin people are short of food, and they must withdraw in October."

From Hubyi to Linzi for more than 400 miles, the daily consumption of 500,000 troops, horses and soldiers, must exceed one million people. This is also the reason why the Qin cavalry retreated quickly after pulling out the city, 60,000 or 70,000 war horses, one horse and ten people eat, which is equal to an army of 600,000 or 700,000 people, and the Qin people will starve after the horses and camels of the army are eaten.

Seasons are very important to the military, and the advantage of attacking in winter is that the plains are infinitely defensible, but the price of attacking in winter is that there is no way to collect grain and grass on the spot, and there is no way to use water transportation. It is possible to obtain supplies by storming the city, but if the time to storm the city is too long, and the food and grass obtained is not enough for the army to consume in a day, then it is better to storm the city.

The 500,000 army, plus the horses in the army, plus the more than 40,000 war horses of the Qin army's cavalry, plus the accompanying soldiers, the consumption of grain and straw may exceed 1.5 million people. The weight of these grains exceeded 110,000 stone (1,500 tons) and required at least 1,000 four-wheeled wagons to carry them.

Linzi is a fortified city, with 300,000 troops in the city, more than 200,000 common people, plus horses in the army, there is no food for one million people, and there is always food for 800,000 people. Fortunately, the Chu army besieged the city five years ago, and after that siege, the Qi State purchased the cement and tendons of the Chu State to build a warehouse, and stockpiled more than 30 million stone corn and 40,000 tons of dry firewood.

The food is enough for two years, and there is less dry firewood. According to the general law, a family of five uses 20 Chu Jin of firewood a day, and saves 10 Chu Jin in wartime, and nearly 600,000 soldiers and civilians are equal to 120,000 households, and they consume 120,000 Chu Jin of dry firewood a day, that is, 300 tons. 40,000 tons of dry firewood will be burned for a maximum of 100 days, and then Linzi will demolish the house.

Tian Zong really wanted to buy the coal storage of Chu, one Chu Jin of coal is equivalent to one and a half Chu Jin of dry firewood, but the boat capacity is insufficient, this matter can only be stopped, and finally Linzi can only reserve dry firewood.

He was not worried that he would not be able to consume the Qin army, what he was worried about was that the Qin army would attack the city with artillery, and then the chiseled wall mentioned by the Chu people in the follow-up flights. Although a deep trench was dug behind the Linzi city wall during this period and a low wall was built, the loss of the four-foot and eight-foot city wall was still a huge loss for the city defense. Will the Qin army chisel walls?
