There is a difference between cutting off the left toe and bin punishment, cutting off the left toe is to cut off the entire ball of the foot, without the sole of the foot a person can still stand and walk, and can barely work when the farm is busy, but can not do heavy work. If it is a torture, it will be really crippled, and you can only be paralyzed for the rest of your life.

These 200,000 or 300,000 Qin soldiers who lacked their left toes were really going to be thrown into the battlefield by the Qin State, and they had an overwhelming advantage in terms of numbers at least, but Xiong Jing doubted that these Qin soldiers really had the courage to fight again. In the first battle of Weinan, they had been broken by the Chu army, and these frightened bow birds faced the bow and crossbow that shot them again, and they could really stand up in front of the Yi Spear Array?

But if they couldn't fight, why did Zhao Zheng recruit these people? During the war, the territory changed frequently, and after the annexation of some counties of the Qi State, the manpower of the Qin State was far from exhausted. It is reported that many Qi soldiers who fled home defected to the Qin army, and the Qin people exempted their sons and mothers from money, and gave them arable land, and they could be knighted by beheading them in wartime, so Qi soldiers were willing to give their lives to the Qin state.

Just the desertion of the Qi army increased the number of 100,000 people under Wang Qian's command. The loss of Jixi made Qi and Qin no longer have controllable borders, and some Qi people in the counties east of Linzi also moved stupidly. They are also slaves under the money of their children, except for a dilapidated thatched hut at home, they cannot afford to pay back the money for several lifetimes. Previously, they defected to the state of Chu, and the state of Chu was hindered by the face of the allies and was not easy to take in, and the second was that the Lu people who guarded the Muling Pass thought that 'those who have no permanent property have no perseverance' and did not want them, and now they have defected to the Qin state.

Under the large-scale attack of the Qin people, the upper echelons of the Qi State were indeed righteous and martyred against Qin, but the lower echelons were eating pot pulp to welcome the king. This cannot but be said to be a failure of the Tian rule, but also a defeat of the Kwantung states - last year's invasion of the Qi state, the Qin army got all the baggage from Pingyin to Linzi, the most important of which was more than 100,000 horses;

At the same time, he also received a large number of soldiers painstakingly trained by the Qi State. These people could not fight in the Qi army, and after the battle array of Pingyin was dispersed by the Qin army, more than half of the people fled, and only sixty or seventy thousand people were really beheaded. Now these fugitives have changed in the Qin army, and the Qi army that chased the Qin army into Hangu Pass seems to have returned, so that Muling Pass had to send ten Chu army divisions to garrison.

All in all, the manpower of the Qin army is not exhausted, and the Qin army's recruitment of deposed soldiers is very suspicious. However, no matter how suspicious it is, this is also an episode of the military discussion, and the matter is temporarily put aside after requiring Zhibi to quickly find out.

"The minister asked Chen Cangdao to take Linwujun as his general, so that he could control the armies." With some hesitation, Dou Yu Pheasant still said his suggestion, although he knew early on that the king did not wait to see Lin Wujun.

"Could it be that my Chu State has no generals to lead troops?" Xiong Jing glanced at him and lowered his head to drink tea.

"King, although our army has a general, there are many young people." Nao also took the opportunity to interject. "Only in time can they really be in battle, so the ministers think that this battle should be based on Linwujun as the general."

"The young are vigorous, and the vigorous cannot be a general, but only a division. And in addition to the Chu army, there are 50,000 Zhao troops," Li He also interjected, he and Dou Yu Pheasant and Nao Cunning have the same meaning. "Lin Wujun was the general of Zhao in the past, and he invaded Qin, although he never pulled out the city, but he also retreated with the whole army, and Lin Wujun and Zhao Jun were familiar with each other."

"Lin Wujun is familiar with General Zhao, and he knows the art of war...... "Just like fun, E Le also spoke out, and he didn't see Xiong Jing's face becoming more and more ugly.

"The Chu army fights, and there is no need for the art of war!" Xiong Jing put down the teacup and choked him, and the ministers heard his displeasure and remained silent for a while.

After he put down the teacup, Li Ji asked, "Who does the king think can be the general?" ”

"Who?" Xiong Jing looked at him. "No one is needed. The widow thought that he would rather Chen Bu be a general than Pang Nuan. ”

Chen Bu is the division rate of Chen Shi, the reason why he became the division rate is not that he knows the art of war and knows how to fight, but that the people above him are dead, and he became the general of Chen Shi because of his high prestige and deep qualifications. Such a middle-class division is obviously not able to command an army of 200,000.

The king laughed. He sneered a few times.

"How could the widow ever laugh?" There was no smile on Xiong Jing's face. "Although Pang Nuan is the king of my Chu State, this person's words and deeds are no different from the Three Jin Dynasty travelers, but as a Chu person, he is a general in Zhao State, and his utilitarian heart is more than that of Zhao people."

A person who wants to be how he wants to be as soon as he meets, on the surface, he thinks about himself, but in fact, once he agrees with his plan, he is the one who implements it, and it is natural that he wants to worship him as Ling Yin, and wealth will come to him from this. It will be his credit in the future; If it didn't work out, he didn't waste his life in vain, and used other people's resources to win a game according to his own wishes, and he finally left a reputation.

"However, this person can indeed be a general, and the king must not be wasted because of others." He said urgently. "Chen Cangdao has the Chu army, the Zhao army, the Ba people, the Yue people, and the Qiang people, the temperament of each army is different, and the generals in the army are not handsome, so the ministers please take Linwujun as the general. Lin Wujun was the commander of the army of the kingdoms to attack the Qin ......"

"The affairs of the Chu State are originally set up because of people, not because of things." Xiong Jing waved him impatiently to interrupt him. "The widow thinks that Pang Nuan is not credible, and he only has utilitarianism in his heart, not honor. It is just a fight to lead the division and brigade, between success and failure, and its people would rather take great risks to become their own thing, and it is okay to succeed, but what if it fails? ”

However, when the joint attack on Qin failed, this person retreated. Zhao Envoy even said that Lin Wujun was frightened by Qin Gong, and he was afraid of Qin Ye. Xiong Jing's words are not irrefutable, no matter how strong Pang Nuan's utilitarian heart is, the whole army retreated from the attack on Qin back then.

"Alas!" After speaking, he sighed. Similarly, Xiong Jing sighed.

Li sighed that the king had a general talent and did not use it, and let him grow old. Pang Nuan's killing of Juxin, the Qin people, and the destruction of the Yan Kingdom all prove his talent. After Xiang Yan's death, there was no real talent in the Chu State, Cheng Tong, Fu Jing, Xiang Chao, and Ruoao were ...... alone, although these people were excellent, their experience and prestige were not enough to be on their own, and they could not pull out the seedlings at the moment;

Xiong Jing's sigh is because people who are too smart often fall into the trap of reason and are accustomed to speaking with 'facts'. What are the facts? Because they can't experience it in person, the so-called facts are mostly fake worlds woven by language.

The most fake thing about this fake world is not that it is made out of nothing, but that it often depicts the big as small, the different as basically the same, and the individual into the whole ......, and the whole image presents a very distorted proportion. It is difficult for intellectually incomplete people to find this, because they abandon the principle of being a gentleman and habitually focus on the part rather than the whole. They pride themselves on their professional achievements, but they are ignorant of other fields, and are unaware of this distortion of the ratio between the different and the real.

What kind of person is Pang Nuan, Xiong Jing has seen and talked to him with his own eyes, and this person often wrote books later, suggesting how to do the Great Sima Mansion. Many people say that this person is a general, but Xiong Jing thinks that he is like a gambler, and he loves adventures.

He didn't have the perseverance of Li Mu to lead the soldiers of the local army against the Qin army, nor did he have the uprightness of Lian Po who was angry that the doorman slipped away and beat Lecheng. All his books mean the same thing: what would happen if I were to gamble on this one......

The war was endless, and it seemed that the Qin people were completely defeated every time, but every time the Qin people were just bleeding and constantly angry. The Chu people were impatient and now began to be impatient, and the battle on the Western Front was the product of this impatience. Whether it is the Great Sima Mansion or the generals, they all believe that if they pull out the Sanguan and enter the Weishui this time, the Qin State will die. However, since ancient times, the Qin soldiers have endured hard fighting, how can the Qin State be so easy to perish?

After all, it's someone who can't hold their breath. Han Zhao is dead, Qi is about to die, and the Qin State has been three-quarters of the world. The artillery is very powerful, but the artillery cannot immediately destroy the Qin State and end the war immediately. After the First Battle of Xiangcheng, the reserve supplementary soldiers in some counties were worried, and some of the soldiers could not meet the standard of a sergeant, so the Fu Division asked to return to their original hometowns, and the division and brigade asked to stay in the army.

Military spending is also problematic. Although the national debt has 300,000 gold, the 300,000 gold is not owned by the Chu State, and even if it is owned by the family, 300,000 gold is a drop in the bucket for a long and vast war. From May of the previous year to April of last year, 174,291 gold was spent on military expenditure; From May last year to April this year, the construction of 10,000 ships alone cost 100,000 gold in military spending.

The war stimulates the economy, and prices rise. Pingyin was defeated, the price of millet exceeded 100 yuan per stone, and there was no millet to buy 300 yuan in Qi country. The money invested in the war either went into the government treasury through taxes, or it became a profit that went into the hands of merchants, and both were reinvested in the war through finances or bonds. The more money is circulated, the less it is, and although the shortfall can be made up by trade and coinage, the materials that can be used cannot be minted like money.

In addition to military spending, there is also grain and straw, and even if 230,000 military horses eat grass (military horses must also ensure some fine materials in peacetime), it is equivalent to 1 million soldiers, which is a factor that Da Sima Fu did not take into account, and it was previously believed that there were more than 100,000 military horses. The corn accumulated for several years has been eaten up, and the common people sell last year's new millet to nibble on potatoes and sweet potatoes themselves, and the soldiers only now have corn in the pot.

The valley of Dongzhou has a high yield and a high rate of decay. In the event of a war, the county did not have so much manpower and transportation capacity to dispose of the Dongzhou Valley, which was five times the weight of corn. During the war, most of the people in the county and township were old and weak, and there were no strong men to work, and the grain output was reduced by at least 30%. This can only ensure that the army, civilians, and horses do not starve, and the Qi people have begged for food several times, but they have not gained much.

Fate is like a mustard, the county is withering, prices are soaring, and there is a shortage ......of corn, this is the most real war. Everything that Zhao Guo experienced back then, Chu State is experiencing now, and it has just begun. Xiong Jing was worried that the Chu people were agitated, because this was a precursor to making a mistake. When he was anxious, someone suddenly jumped out and shouted: 'I can destroy Qin in one fell swoop!' And then I believed it all.

After sighing, he looked at his courtiers and said, "The widow has made up his mind, and Pang Nuan can't do anything!" ”

"Who does the king think can be a general?" Nao Cunning hurriedly asked.

"Take Douqing as the general of Chen Cangdao, and take Chengqing as the general of Shangqi Dao." Xiong Jing spoke in an unquestioning tone.
