30,000 Chu troops surrounded Linzi, which was 300,000 people, and the Chu people outside the city took a good time to open the market, and they were not in a hurry; The people in the city were noisy and couldn't afford to cook, and after only five days, the common people who had stopped cooking couldn't stand it. It is said that there are only 30,000 Chu people outside the city, and 100,000 people with halberds in the city, but the king would rather surround it like this, just because the great Sima is afraid of the enemy like a tiger.

The crowd was raging, and the courtiers and nobles were also dissatisfied. Some, like Daxing Tianji, the State of Qi is the Eastern Emperor, and the State of Chu is the Southern Barbarian, and the capital is besieged by 30,000 Southern Barbarians, where will the face of the Eastern Emperor be put in the future; Some, such as Ojida and others, thought that if they did not fight World War I, the domestic doctors would be dissatisfied, which would damage the prestige of the Linzi court; There are also some who really hope that the Qi army will be defeated and will fall after victory. After all, the state of Chu only asked about the sin of Hou Sheng, not to destroy the country and seize the city.

In the city and in the court, public opinion is gradually changing, and Sima Tianzong, who is trying his best to avoid not fighting, realizes that the war cannot be avoided, so he has to discuss the war with a few people such as the military advisor Mu Chong, the Yi doctor Tian Yang, and the halberd general Shi Yi.

"I have all the armor and soldiers held by the Chu army, so why be afraid?" Shi Yi is a relative of Hou Sheng, and he is the general who holds the halberd not because of his ability, but because of his loyalty. History is the clan of the queen's family, and the historian is hereditary, with the official as the clan. Hou Sheng is actually also a history, because he is the queen's cousin and the queen's person, so ordinary people generally call him Hou Sheng instead of Shi Sheng.

The 50,000 halberd-wielding soldiers are the most elite army of the Qi State, and after the victory, it is natural for the Shi clan to lead the army. Although the Tian clan's sects have opinions on this, the queen has only been down for sixteen years, and the power of the relatives is still very strong, so they can only endure it.

Shi Yi is a person who wins later, so he is naturally not polite to Tian Zong. Tian Zong didn't know why he was like this, and thought that he was warlike, so he said: "The huge armor and the huge soldiers are weapons, and the victory and defeat of the battle formation are the law, and General Shi does not see the Chu soldiers and makes the spear ......."

"What about the spear?" Shi Yi said with a smile, "There are clouds in the book of war: all soldiers have no more than three of their bodies, and if they have three of their bodies, they can be used, and they can harm others." The Nanban is short, and the height is less than seven feet, and now they are all two feet and four feet long, and the formation is chaotic. ”

"However, the Qin army has been defeated one after another, why is this?" Mu Chong asked, he rarely dealt with Shi Yi. "The general thinks that the Qin army is inferior to me?"

"The defeat of the Qin army is more than a few enemies." Shi Yi laughed again. "In the Battle of Qingshui, the Chu army was nearly 300,000 and the Qin army was 200,000; In the battle of Jiyi, the Chu army was 250,000 and the Qin army was 150,000; The Battle of Chencheng and the Battle of Aocang were both battles to defend the city, and the defeat to the Chu army was the Wei army, not the Qin army. Today, there are 30,000 Chu troops and 100,000 of our army, and the enemy is outnumbered, so why be afraid? ”

"I don't know how Chu pawns are for the time being, but Chu cavalry is invincible, and our army can't stop it." Doctor Tian Yang said. What Shi Yi said is not unreasonable, but the fact in front of him is that no matter how the Qi army sent people out of the city, they were all robbed and killed by the cavalry of the Chu State.

"The two armies are facing each other under the city, our army is fighting against the city, what is the use of the cavalry of the Chu army?" Shi Yi asked rhetorically.

"This ......" Tian Yang said that it was a screen to cover up, but what Shi Yi said was a battle, but the two were a little different.

"The general thinks that if you go out of the city and fight, our army will win?" Mu Chong asked again, and he gradually came to some realization.

"If you don't dare to say that you will win, you will never lose." Shi Yi is full of confidence. "The man with the halberd is the pawn selected by my Qi country, and there are huge armor and huge soldiers, how can the Chu army defeat me? Da Sima can't fight, I don't know what it means? Is it bribed by Chu? ”

"Rude!" Next to Tian Zong was Sima Tian Ran, who was Tian Zong's deputy, and he had already discovered that Shi Yi meant something.

"Rude?" Shi Yi sneered contemptuously. "The great Sima eats the king's luck, but he can't share the worries of the king, what does it mean to ask? Now that the whole city is out of cooking, and every household has rice, I really don't know what the use of the military endowment that the common people receive on weekdays! ”

"You!" Tian Ran was furious, "This Qi Xiang was bribed by Qin, and he divided Qi and Chu, causing the king of Chu to ask the ...... for the crime."

"What about sin?" Shi Yi shouted. "I can destroy Chu and eat in the court, and I will ask the king for war today."

Shi Yi didn't come to discuss the battle, he came to smash the field. After saying that, he brushed his sleeves and left, Tian Ran was surprised when he saw him leave, only Tian Zong and Mu Chong watched him go, and neither of them made a sound. After a long time, Tian Zongfang sighed: "After winning the country, the latter will harm the country!" ”

"Why should Da Sima care about the future victory." Mou kind of advice. "For the sake of the present, how to win."

"Does the military advisor think our army can win?" Tian Yang thought so. "How do you fight if you want to win?"

"The strength of the Chu army is one in morale, two in formation, three in cavalry, and four in armor." Mu Chong counted the merits of the Chu army, and Tian Yang kept nodding his head. "Morale is slacking over time, but if our army goes into battle quickly, it will not fall. The formation is different from our army, the soldiers all use spears, and I don't know how to attack. The strength of the cavalry is unmatched, I heard the battle of Jucheng, the two armies against the Chu cavalry suddenly hooked the back, our army was defeated, and this had to be guarded against. The advantage of the armor is invincible in the world, and our army only has the army with halberds, and the rest have nothing. ”

"However, our army of 100,000 people, if we conquer the city again, the number of soldiers in armor can reach 200,000." Tian Yang nodded and talked about the comparison of the strength of the two armies, "With 200,000 people and 30,000, it is not winning?" ”

"Do the common people in the city want to fight with the Chu people?" Mu Chong asked. "Now the city knows that the king of Chu is here to only ask about the crime of Hou Sheng, and not to harm the Qi people, why are they fighting?"

"This ......" Tian Yang was speechless, not to mention the common people in the city, even many people didn't really want to fight with the Chu people. The Chu army did not attack the city, let alone 'slash together and move forward', 'digging tombs and burning people' like the Yan army. The common people in the city were not angry with the Chu people, but were extremely angry with Hou Sheng. Even when the price of millet in the city dropped, these people were still angry.

"If you want to fight with the Chu army, the first thing is to eliminate its cavalry......" Mou Chong said to himself, using a chip to start arranging the formation on the chip. The formation of the cone line is as humble as a sword, if it is not sharp, it will not enter, if the blade is not thin, it will not be cut, and if it is not thick, it cannot be arrayed. Therefore, the end must be sharp, the blade must be thin, and the original must be Hong. However, the cone line array can be decisive. ”

The army of 200,000 and 50,000 armor soldiers with halberds was at the forefront, and it was the last. The remaining 150,000 troops are the foundation of the formation, guarding the left and right flanks, such an array can prevent the cavalry from hooking, but can the halberd-wielding army of the huge armor and huge soldiers really break through the Chu army array? Mu Chong didn't know. The Qi army has a halberd and a spear, and no weapon can be longer than the spear of the Chu people.

"The array of geese walking, in the front (there is Yong), the back row is like a raccoon, the advance can be hooked, and the retreat can be self-existent, which is called the responsibility of the wild goose array." The cone formation on the chip board was quickly erased and replaced by a flying geese array. The formation of geese is like the wild goose array, the middle is concave and the two sides are protruding, once the troops are engaged, the two prominent wings will naturally encircle the enemy left and right, and then attack sideways.

But because the Chu army has cavalry, it is still unknown whether the cavalry will be surrounded by the wild goose array. If the cavalry of the Chu army was not within the scope of the envelope, then this military formation was likely to fail. Both armies adopted hook attack tactics, but the Qi army relied on foot soldiers to hook up, and the Chu army relied on cavalry to hook up, and the foot soldiers naturally couldn't outrun the cavalry, and when their own foot soldiers hooked, the Chu cavalry was estimated to have broken through their own army formation.

Sun Bin ten formations, except for the impossible fire array and water array, the rest of the military formations were tried one by one on the chipboard, and at this time, Shi Yi, who left the Great Sima Mansion, had returned to the shogunate and began to make some arrangements.

"Do you know why Ben summoned you to wait?" Shi Yi asked.

Sitting in front of Shi Yi were several company commanders and Li Yousi, who had already explained some things before they entered the account, and when they saw Shi Yi asking, they immediately replied: "The villain knows." ”

"Yes." Shi Yi nodded indifferently, with his identity, there was no need to summon these low-level officers, but it was always good to see them, at least they would work harder to do things. "After this, Ben will have his own reward."

"General Xie." When the copper coin didn't see a single one, more than a dozen people bowed down and thanked him. "The villain will be ruined."

"Go ahead." Shi Yi smiled, "Remember, don't miss the hour." ”

The time was very important, because not only the soldiers were involved, but also the courtiers, the doctors of the palace, and the common people. The company commander and Li Yousi, who were willing to serve Shi Yi's death, had not yet arrived at the Gaomen of the palace with more than 1,000 soldiers, and the road drum outside the road gate had been beaten. Except for a few courtiers, the loudest shouter in the crowd was Zhou Qingchen, a doctor from the school palace, who howled while beating the drum: "Da Sima eats the king's corn, but he is afraid of the enemy like a tiger, and the 100,000 army is afraid of the 30,000 Chu army, laughing for the world." Please the king, the great Sima! Please the king to dismiss the great Sima!! ”

"Please the king, the great Sima! Please the king to dismiss the great Sima!! No matter how loud Zhou Qingchen shouted, it was just one person, and there were hundreds of scholars around him, and everyone was angry, and some of them even burst into tears.

After the students, it was some common people who rushed ahead of the soldiers, who ate raw rice every day and had bleeding from their mouths and teeth, and shivered without charcoal fire at night, and heard that the Chu army outside the city was only 30,000 and their own army was 100,000. By the time more than 1,000 soldiers rushed into Gaomen and shouted, 'Please stop the king', the entire palace was in complete chaos.

"Students, common people, and soldiers, all want the king to dismiss the big Sima at this time......" In the big Sima Mansion, Mu Chong shook his head with a wry smile, "There must be a demon in this matter." ”

The three gangs of people got together so coincidentally, someone must have secretly planned it. If it is said that it is the Chu people who instigated, Tian Zong does not believe that it is impossible for the Chu people to agitate the army sergeants, and the only ones who can encourage the army sergeants and soldiers can ......

"That's it." Tian Zong, who thought of something, instantly relaxed, his shoulders collapsed, and the whole person seemed to be ten years old. "Since the king wants to fight, then the war will stop, and the minister will resign."

"How can Da Sima be like this?" Sima Tianran was shocked, "The king just listened to the rumors for a while. ”

"The king of Chu asked if he won after sin, what if our army was defeated? If our army is defeated, if we can cut off this courtier, it will be a great benefit. Tian Zong said, he got up tremblingly, and before going out, he gave Mu Chong a deep look, and said, "I will entrust it to the military advisor." ”
