King Qin was very dizzy when he heard it, putting shoes on the horse?

No one has done this for hundreds of years, and the Hufu cavalry of King Wuling of Zhao did not put shoes on horses, and the Hu people in Yiqu or the grasslands in the north did not put shoes on horses.

Bai Hui put shoes on the horses.

King Qin asked, "Will this horse be good with shoes on?" ”

Bai Hui replied very confidently: "Of course, the horse has shoes not only to protect the horse's hooves, but also to make the horse run faster, run more steadily, the minister has found more than 30 injured horses for testing, although it is not perfect, but the craftsmen are still trying to improve, the minister thinks that if it goes well, at least 10,000 heavy cavalry will be replaced with horseshoes, which will definitely increase the combat power." ”

According to what Bai Hui said, King Qin couldn't help but be surprised in his heart, looking at the excitement on Bai Hui's face, King Qin was unusually calm on the surface: "Those who do great things should be calm, although there is no time to make shoes for horses, but no matter what the specific armament is, it must wait for the results over there first, I think it will be these few days, someone will send reliable news, and it is not too late to make a decision." ”

Bai Hui immediately replied: "Yes, what the king taught is that it is the ministers who are not calm, and the ministers must improve." ”

Qin Wangxin said, you two brothers are much calmer than widows, this war related to the fortunes of the Great Qin, Bai Qi and Bai Hui brothers have done a very good job.

The only thing that worries King Qin is that Korea has missed the appointment, and even the Han and Wei coalition forces.

At present, the Koreans are a month ahead of the agreed day, why is it advanced, which makes King Qin a little uneasy. I'm afraid of complications.

Bai Hui knew that the Koreans would turn their faces anyway, because the excavation capacity of coal mines in this era was impossible to open large-scale mines, and open-pit mines were the most reasonable choice.

You don't have to think about it, you don't understand geography, and you understand that Jindi is a coal mine, a coal mine, a coal mine, so I believe that soon the Koreans will find that there is no point in trading with the Qin people, and they have more and better mining areas.

But now, the Koreans are really seeing the benefits of coal.

The coal transported to Xinzheng by boatload through the Yellow River waterway not only greatly increased the production of agricultural iron tools in Xinzheng Guanfang, but also provided the Koreans with a more reliable fuel than firewood.

So the Koreans wanted their own mining area, not to spend money to buy coal from Qin merchants.

Under the pressure of the old Korean aristocracy, the defender who was originally selected to send him to death launched an offensive in advance.

Wang Ji and Bai Ping conquered the city in one day, and the soldiers disguised as 5,000 slaves surrendered after the hidden men killed the defenders.

On the third day after the war, Xiang Shouren did not arrive, but the people under his banner had already arrived.

Externally, it was naturally General Xiang Shou of the Qin State who took over the city and prepared to start a war with the Koreans. And the Koreans sent envoys to prepare for peace talks.

Sima Coo secretly came to Persimmon City on the fourth day after the war.

Sima Cuo asked Wang Yi and Bai Ping: "You don't need to see this city, just smell the smell of the city and know that this is given to the two of you by Han Renbai, so what is the next task for the two of you." ”

As a veteran of the battlefield, he said that the taste was indeed not wrong, because there was no smell of blood in this city.

It is impossible for the attack to be free of blood, so Sima Cuo is sure that this city was given away by the Koreans for free.

Bai Ping took a step forward: "Captain, the order that the last general received was to take over this city, and originally there was a task to prepare for war, but now we have received a new order, requiring us to take our troops back to Beiqu City, and arrange other combat missions." The rest of the matter will not be known at all. ”

No matter whether Bai Ping said the truth or a lie, Sima Cuo would not be held accountable, and as a military general, he would definitely not give a real battle order to anyone other than Shangguan.

Sima mistakenly changed a question: "Ben will ask the two of you, if you are preparing for war, you can not answer, Ben will go to Beiqu to ask Bai Qi and Bai Hui brothers." However, there is no main general in this city for the time being, and if no one takes care of it, it may affect the future battle, and if the general knows which city will be attacked, he will arrange two armies to temporarily manage the city. ”

Wang Yi and Bai Ping glanced at each other, they understood that this was Sima mistakenly to save face for them, or seriously ordered them to speak out, and they didn't dare not tell it.

Wang Luo motioned to Bai Ping, and Bai Ping stepped forward and whispered: "The original order of the two of us was to attack Guyi, but the last general knew that the second general had changed the main general of the city, and changed it to General Xiang Shou as the main general, and asked to take Guyi and ...... Wangyuan Castle. ”

The second general is a pronoun, and most people know that this refers to Bai Hui.

As a national lieutenant, Sima was qualified to hear all the battle arrangements of the Qin army.

Of course, this also includes white rising. The battle arrangements of the two Bai Hui brothers, Sima Cuo also has the right to intervene, even the King of Qin will not easily deprive Sima Cuo of this right as a national lieutenant.

Sima was silent for a long time after listening to Bai Ping's words, and he began to deduce Bai Qi and Bai Hui's combat arrangements in his mind.

Sima in the army came to report on military affairs, Sima mistakenly waved his hand to stop Sima in the army, stood alone and thought for a quarter of an hour, and then turned his eyes to the east.

"No!" Sima Cuo's mind flashed the name of Luoyi, and then he shook his head.

In Sima Cuo's eyes, the real battlefield should be placed in the east of Jiangcheng, or between Jiangcheng and Fencheng. The terrain here is conducive to the deployment of the Qin army, and it is also conducive to the heavy cavalry assault of Baiqi, and more importantly, the supply line is very short, as long as there is enough food in Beiqucheng.

What is the significance of beating Wangyuan City?

Sima Cuo had actually thought of it, it was Luo Yi, but he couldn't believe this bizarre idea.

Just as Sima was thinking hard, the messenger of King Qin arrived.

Sima mistakenly came to Persimmon Yi because there was a sudden war here, and the last order given to him by the King of Qin was to stand by at Hangu Pass, and this time the messenger came to be the real order.

"The king is edicted, and the national lieutenant receives the edict alone, and the secret edict."

"Honoring the King!" Sima Cuo shouted and led the messenger into a safe room, and then called his soldiers to guard the surroundings, and then officially received the edict.

Sima mistakenly read the edict, and his brows were wrinkled together.

The content of the Wang edict is: Sima Co decides whether Xiang Shou is a reliable candidate to capture Wangyuan City, if not Sima Co immediately chooses a new general, the new general must complete the task of capturing Wangyuan City.

However, Sima Cuo was absolutely not allowed to participate in the attack on Wang Yuancheng on the surface.

After Sima mistakenly read the edict, the messenger took out a wooden box, opened the copper clasp and took out a small piece of bamboo.

This piece of bamboo was placed in the palm of the messenger's hand and shown to Sima wrong.

It didn't take much effort for the messenger to retract the bamboo piece and ask, "Can the national lieutenant see clearly?" ”

"Yes!" Sima Coo nodded silently.
