"I've seen the General." In a military tent behind the shogunate, Yang Wenjun saluted Xiang Yan who came in, and he got up with the prince of Shu, if the prince and his son-in-law were all dead, which prince could get the support of the army, and the prince could be crowned king. It's a pity that the crown prince Xiong Jing can't die no matter how he kills him, and now he is still on the throne, and the two of them really calculated in vain.

Xiang Yan tilted his head, and instead of looking at the extremely bent down, he looked at Yang Wenjun with contempt: "Is there a letter from the Qin State?" ”

There was no letter from the Qin State, but then he ...... that the humble one was still bowing, and Yang Wenjun had to pull him up.

"So what?" Xiang Yan stared at him. If it weren't for Duke Chen's letter of recommendation, saying that the prince of Chengshu was expected by the county princes, and saying that Yang Wenjun was familiar with all the affairs of the Qin State and was beneficial to the war, he would have driven the two out a long time ago. No matter how bad Ling Yin Huangxie is, with him, it will not cause the disaster of the Three Kingdoms today.

"The general knows: Mengwu's protector is Lu Buwei's guest Sikong Ma?" Yang Wenjun sat down before he spoke.

"So what?" Xiang Yan also sat down. Although he didn't like Yang Wenjun and the two of them, they could indeed provide him with information about the Qin State.

"This is what I said yesterday, if the general goes north, the Qin army will fight with our army, even if the Qin army still has tens of thousands of troops before entering the Chu realm." Yang Wenjun smiled. "Changping Jun, the right prime minister of the Qin State, is the son of the first king of my Chu State, and he is attached to my Chu State. Lü Buwei wanted to attack Chu to force Changping Jun to ask the King of Qin to withdraw his army, so he naturally wanted to defeat our army. In this way, Changping Jun asked to withdraw his troops, and the King of Qin did not use Changping Jun as his minister. ”

"Tens of thousands of troops? Changping Jun ...... I've heard of it. Finally hearing something substantial, Xiang Yan nodded frequently.

"In chaos, the king of Qin wanted to make Lü Buwei go to his post and replace him with Changping Jun, but Lü Buwei was unwilling, so he had this battle." Yang Wenjun briefly described the cause of the battle, but hid many things. "The king of Qin wants to take Zhao, but the king of Qin is suspicious, and he is also afraid of the king of Changping and the mother country, so he will make Lü Buwei and Chu. If the general wins this battle, the king of Qin should retreat. ”

"What if I lose?" Xiang Yan asked.

"If you are defeated, you will retreat." Yang Wenjun said. "The state of Chu exists, Wei Qi is weak, the state of Chu does not exist, and Wei Qi is victorious. The King of Qin had the idea of having a day, and he would never make the Chu State not exist and Wei Qi would benefit. When the state of Chu is in danger, the state of Qin will help me retreat from the troops of Wei Qi. ”

"If that's the case, the state of Chu is still the state of Chu?" Xiang Yan could imagine the kind of situation that Yang Wenjun said, but as the general of the Chu State, he would never allow this situation to happen.

"The Qin State dominates the world, what does the general think the Chu State can do?" Yang Wenjun asked rhetorically, his face was also helpless.

"The king is reluctant to leave the army." Xiang Yan suddenly talked about Xiong Jing, and he had been talking with Xiong Jing for a long time just now.

He ...... "I was stuck trying to ask something."

"Oh. What does the king say? Yang Wenjun knew what he wanted to ask.

"I ask the king to retreat to Xi County, if I am defeated, the state of Chu may be able to bow down. The king said: If this battle is defeated, there will be no more Chu State. Xiang Yan blinked her eyes, and her emotion was clear. Our army will march north tonight, and I will send someone to escort you and others back to Xi County, if this battle is defeated, you may be able to clean up the chaos and bow down. Leave. ”

Xiang Yan hastily withdrew from the military tent, it was not too early, he had to beat the drum and gather the generals to announce the matter of pulling the camp north, anything could happen on the battlefield, and the marching order of the camp to the north determined the order of the formation during the decisive battle.

"Oh! King Jing has arrived in Xiang Yan's army? "In the Qin army camp dozens of miles away, the lord Meng Wu is very interested in the intelligence of Captain Bailin.

"Exactly." Bai Lin had a smile on his face, and he knew that Meng Wu would be interested in it. "When our army withdrew from Jiangyi, a Jing knight descended to me, and he said that the new king of Jing with 50,000 Jiangdong troops had arrived in Xiang Yan's army."

"Where is this person?" More interested than Meng Wu is the protector Sikong Ma.

"Just outside the tent, if the Sikong Protector wants to see him, the last general will immediately send him in." Bai Lin immediately replied.

"Not necessarily." Sikong Ma was only interested in this news, not really to see the pawn. "General Meng thinks when Xiang Yan will go north?"

"The army of Jingren Cai County is rushing to Xi County to meet the troops, I don't know when Xiang Yan will go north." Meng Wu replied, waving his hand to let Bai Lin, the captain, withdraw from the military tent.

"Since King Jing is in Xiang Yan's army, and his army has never met a single soldier, I think our army should quickly go south to Jiangyi and fight with it." How to give Chu Guo a fatal blow as soon as possible is what he has always thought, and time is running out.

"However, our military evacuated Jiangyi," luring the Chu army to the north for a decisive battle was the previous plan, and ceding Jiangyi was part of the plan. "And the Qi army is going south to Juxian, and the Wei army is ready to go, so our army doesn't have to rush to fight the Jing people."

"No, no, no." Sikong Ma refuted: "It is precisely because of Qi Wei's troops that our army should fight quickly. King Jing is in Xiang Yan's army, and it is the best policy to capture him and cut the land, otherwise, the Jing people will be defeated by me, and the Jing land will be occupied by Qi Wei, which will be very disadvantageous to my Qin country. ”

Sikong Mamen was born, and his mouth was simply black and white, whether it was Mengwu or the other generals in the shogunate, he was stunned by what he said. Sikong Ma, who was unforgiving, continued: "If Xiang Yan doesn't go north tomorrow, our army should go south to fight. ”

Sikong Ma's words were categorical, Meng Wu and Yang Duanhe, the commander of the right army, quietly glanced at each other and said nothing. But the two of them knew very well why Sikong Ma was so anxious, especially in the last few days, Xianyang came to have a messenger to the guard camp every day. Mengwu sent people to inquire quietly, and these people were not public officials, but the private subordinates of Xiangbang Lü Buwei.

Sikong Ma has a private family, and the Meng family naturally has a private family from Xianyang. The situation in Qin today is that Xiangbang Lü Buwei and the right prime minister Changpingjun are fighting each other, Changpingjun has been investigating the rebellion, and Lü Buwei is fighting back with the attack on Chu. Meng Wu did not belong to either of the two sides, but the soldiers were eager for war, especially after the initial victory, he was really afraid that Lü Buwei would order the withdrawal of troops as soon as he fell the king.

"Doctor Sikong...... someone entered the account to find Sikong Ma, and the account whispered in Sikong Ma's ear.

"General Meng, generals, I will leave first." Sikong Ma, who had already changed color, waved at the generals, and his footsteps were hurried when he left.

“…… With Pan Wuming as the commander of the left army, in addition to Cai's division, there are still Fanyang, Bedxian, Dun County, Juyang, Chen County, Kuxian, Chengfu, and Ludi Divisions; With Guan Yu as the commander of the Chinese army, in addition to the Yingshi under his command, there are still Xixian, Qisi, Tate, Xiyang, Xiacai, Juchao, Zhongli, Feiling, Shuxian, and Jianyang divisions; With Yang Xu as the commander of the right army, in addition to the division of Jiangdong, there are still Yiyang, Zhou Hou, Liu, ? 、? Jun Zhushi; The rest are all rear troops and are under the command of this general. ”

After gathering generals, Xiang Yan first issued the order to open and pull, and then redistributed the left, center, right, and rear four armies. According to the practice of the Chu army, the left army was the first to advance, followed by the middle army, and finally the right army and the rear army. After he made this arrangement, he asked the generals of each division to return to the camp to prepare, and did not say whether he would fight a decisive battle with the Qin people.

Before the sun had set, the battalions were gathering their tents. The right army is commanded by Yang Lu instead of Huang Yong, in fact, it is out of Xiong Jing's requirements, and at the same time, the division of the feudal monarch is also arranged in the right army, plus 4,000 palace sanitation and nearly 1,000 palace armor, and the number of the right army is close to 70,000. The military power of this Jiangdong division is equivalent to turning around from Xiang Yan's hands and returning to Xiong Jing's hands.

"What does the teacher think?" The big war is imminent, military power is not critical, Xiong Jing wants to know how this battle Xiang Yan will be arranged.

"Since the battle in formation, the formation has changed in a thousand ways, and there are many formations. However, the way to defeat is nothing more than two: one is to crush the enemy's army and promote its defeat; The second is to hook the enemy's two wings and force them to flee. Xiang Yan's move was only designated as the commander of the left, center and right armies, and it was unknown whether he intended to hit the army's back or hook the enemy's two wings. "The right army and the rear army finally pulled out the camp, and in the small shogunate, Yang Xu, Yi Yangjun, Lian Po, and several people gathered to discuss, and the others were not there.

"There are about 80,000 people in the Chinese army, 70,000 in our army, 60,000 in the left army, and ...... in the rear army" Thinking that more than 10,000 people had arrived at the camp in Xixian County in the past two days, Yang said: "The rear army is about 50,000. Sun Bin Youyun: 'The method of the phalanx: it must be thin, medium and thick, and the formation is there. The thinness of the middle is also, and it will be in the future. Thick and square, will be specialized. Stand in the rear, to protect the generals'. Today, the Chinese army has 80,000 people, and the general may want to attack the Qin Chinese army and win. ”

"I'm afraid not. Pan Wuming is the commander of the left army, this person dares to fight bravely, and it is impossible to defend it in wartime. Except for the division in Jiangdong, our army is a brave army, thinking that it is the right army, or attacking the left flank of the Qin people. Guan Yu is the commander of the Chinese army, and his people are mediocre, but they can be defended but not attacked. In this battle, Xiang Yan should use the left and right armies to hook the Qin people, and the Chinese army should defend to the death and not retreat. "Everyone guesses from their own arrangements for the main general, Yiyang Jun only feels that the Fengjun's division is the strongest, and he must attack the two wings of the Qin people in the right army.

"Definitely. The right army is known as the weakest division of our Chu army, the battle of Jiangyi, the right army was defeated, and the general's move was to strengthen our right army, not to attack the left and right of the Qin people. Yang Lu still insisted on his own judgment, believing that he was going to attack the enemy's Chinese army and make it crush.

"Ahem......" Lian Po had to cough, and before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by two acute sons. The phalanx must be thin and thick, but what Xiang Yan is determined to be a phalanx? The day after tomorrow, it will be arranged into a phalanx, and it is not known the thickness of the three army arrays. If the Chinese army is thin and the left and right sides are thick, it should be a hook attack, and if the Chinese army is thick and the left and right sides are thin, it should be a medium attack. The method of arranging the formation changes from time to time due to the enemy's cause and place, and it is absolutely impossible to insist on it. ”

"How does the teacher think our army can win?" Xiong Jing asked the formation to know how to win. "Can trebuchets be useful?"

"Iron bullets that go into the mud are of little use." Lian Po had heard Xiong Jing talk about trebuchets before, and he watched it today. "If you throw firebombs, it may be useful in a battle."

"The military commander has collected the anointment in the army, and there will be fire bullets in battle." Xiong Jing hurriedly added that in the afternoon, Xiang Yan's sentence 'This victory or defeat is not as good as five or five' made him feel cold in his heart, and now he only asks Lian Po, a veteran of the battlefield, to give him some hope.

The "......" military curtain immediately fell silent, and several people looked at Lian Po. Lian Po opened his mouth but was silent for a long time, waiting for Xiong Jing to ask again, but Xiong Jing couldn't stand Xiong Jing's insistence, he finally said: "In all battles, morale comes first." The law of the great king's day may prevail, but ......"
