In the military system of the Qin State, when men were conscripted, they had to carry their own military robes, weapons and other materials, and the Qin people who were recruited to become soldiers in addition to the most basic food in the barracks had never had a precedent for the army to issue supplies unless they encountered special circumstances.

In addition to the 50,000 border troops of the Great Wall, the rest of Wang Ben's partial division were Qin men recruited from various counties, and it was autumn when they sent out their troops, and the clothes carried by the soldiers were basically autumn clothes.

After conquering Jinyang, it was winter for almost half a month, and even if they wrote home to ask their families to send winter clothes, they would not be able to get them quickly.

The Qin army has always had merchants with the army, but it does not mean that all soldiers have the wealth to buy winter clothes from the vendors, so some wealthy soldiers do not have to shiver in the ice and snow, but a considerable number of soldiers can only wear autumn clothes in the cold winter.

If you don't have winter clothes, if you stay in the station, you can still hide in a tent or around a campfire to keep warm, although some people will still freeze to death, but most people can survive this winter.

Wang Ben is from Gaomen, he only thinks that Zhao Guo's self-rebellion is a good opportunity to send troops, and he may also know that the soldiers lack winter clothes, but people from Gaomen usually have a commonality, that is, they like to rebel against the most basic common sense things with their own opinions, so they think that the soldiers under his command can endure it with patience, so they did not hesitate to send troops.

A group of soldiers who lacked winter clothes, they were all stunned when they learned the news that they were going to go out in the ice and snow, and they did not mutiny or anything at the first moment, but hurriedly borrowed money to buy winter clothes from the army merchants, but a group of people borrowed money to buy clothes, but not everyone could borrow money to buy winter clothes.

Of the 100,000 Qin soldiers who had to go out under Wang Ben's order, less than 30,000 put on relatively warm winter clothes, and then without any hope of disobedience, 70,000 Qin soldiers who were shivering from the cold as soon as they got out of the tent and 30,000 Qin soldiers who had winter clothes but were probably full of debts set off.

Most of the soldiers were frozen and their noses were swollen, and they ignored the snowflakes falling in the sky. Wang Ben's troops were very smooth in the early stage, and many of the counties of Zhaoguo Township on the route of the march had been captured before they came to their senses.

How did Wang Ben's expedition come from? It is to send troops down to rob it. With the experience of the first robbery, the Qin pawn, who lacked winter clothes and was full of debts, naturally would not forget the past experience.

Every time a township is beaten, the attacking Qin army rushes in for a while, and the robbed Zhao people will naturally resist, and the result is inseparable from a period of slaughter.

The army is a violent institution and a group of beasts, and barbarism and brutality may only be limited to the fight between the two armies under the constraints of military discipline, but once the restraint of military discipline is lost, the soldiers will become monsters who choose people one by one.

Wang Ben only found out after the expedition that it was different from what he imagined. Seeing too many soldiers without winter clothes and being frozen, their combat power plummeted, so they chose to relax the restraint and let the soldiers let go of their hands to grab it.

Completely let go of the restraints, the 100,000 Qin army can no longer be called an army, they broke out with great enthusiasm for robbery, and the destruction and casualties caused by burning and looting along the way completely made the people of Zhao desperate.

If the Qin army only fought with the Zhao army as before, and treated the Qianshou with brutality but did not loot and kill people wantonly, then the Zhao people in the occupied area might still be patient. It's just that after the Qin army completely turned into a beast, the people of Zhao had no place to endure it if they wanted to, so they fled in despair. After escaping, the gang began to attack and kill the lone soldiers of the Qin army, using blood to wash away hatred.

Wang Bencai didn't care why the Zhao people sneaked up, he only knew that as the Zhao people's resistance became more and more intense, the impatience made him do another thing that might be very painful but very stupid. openly signaled that Qin Jun could take the lead in killing people when he felt that there was danger, which was regarded as tearing off the last fig leaf, causing the already desperate Zhao people to think that they could not survive anymore, and they could be killed at any time anyway. Then just fight hard.

The impatient Wang Bencai did not have the time to entangle with the Zhao people, who resisted more and more fiercely, and he believed that the reason why the Zhao people resisted so fiercely was because the Qin army had not yet attacked Handan, and as long as Handan fell, the Zhao people would stop resisting. Therefore, he thought that Xu Yan should be notified, and then personally led 20,000 cavalry all the way to the hurricane, and went straight to the pass of Huguan before being blocked.

This time, the atrocities of the Qin army in Shangdang County were not made up by the countries themselves, and the Zhao people, who fled to other counties, spread the word about what the Qin army had done in Shangdang County.

Burning, killing and looting, or the brutal behavior of the army's planned and deployed, the counties of Zhao State that have been abandoned by Zhao Wangxie, the Zhao people either fled for their lives before the Qin army was killed, or they swore to die and prepared to fight the Qin army completely.

The Zhao people in the occupied area, they spontaneously organized people to constantly attack the Qin army, the result was that Wang Ben led the cavalry in front of the gallop, and the Qin army infantry in the back began to become a little difficult to move because of the looting delay and continuous attacks, and when Wang Ben killed under the Huguan Pass, the vanguard and follow-up troops of the Qin army actually opened nearly a hundred miles.

Wuchen led the army to defend Huguan, and Wang Ben, who was full of cavalry, was naturally difficult to capture the pass.

Under the wanton looting, the Qin army, which had no winter clothes and lack of materials when it set out, had no material problems, Wang Ben urged to solve the problem of winter clothes and supply the follow-up troops to hurry up, and he urged at the same time, of course, he also received continuous warnings from the troops behind, and finally found that his army fell into the dilemma of being an enemy in the whole territory.

Lack of supplies to rob, Wang Ben did not feel that he had done anything wrong, in fact, the war has not been spent in murder and robbery, not only the Qin army did this, but the armies of other countries have always done this, he just didn't realize that this time the seemingly ordinary indulgence was that the Zhao people were in a situation where the emotional conflict did not break out, and as a result, the Zhao people who were abandoned found a person to vent.

When Zhang Er entered Shangdang County with the Zhao army of 100,000 new organizations, the Zhao people along the way broke out with unprecedented enthusiasm for this Zhao army that rushed in.

In the face of the Zhao people who were burned and looted by the Qin army and forced to live, as soon as they saw the Zhao army's table out of the Qi food pot pulp to welcome the king's master, Zhang Er was moved to bury his head and cry bitterly, and then swore to the curse of the Zhao people in the boundless fallen area, with the Zhao army, who had become extremely indignant after hearing about the various brutal deeds of the Qin army, without hesitation, he pounced on the Qin army, which was relatively scattered because he was addicted to robbery and robbery, and defeated five Qin armies in a row in one day.

Zhang Er, who suddenly found that the Qin army had become easy to fight, was still in disbelief at first, and he couldn't figure out how the Qin army, which was like a wolf and a tiger in the Battle of Jinyang, became so indifferent.

I can't figure it out, in the face of the Qin army that suddenly became vulnerable, Zhang Er, a scribe who led the troops and didn't have much ability, came to feel so much, and very boldly adopted the strategy of dividing the troops and attacking, with the help of the Zhao people in the occupied area, it took less than ten days to defeat the Qin army in many ways, and the waiting calculation was to behead 8,000 and capture more than 10,000 people, and the Qin army that entered Shangdang County except for the more than 20,000 cavalry of Wang Ben's headquarters under Huguan City were all expelled from Shangdang County.

Zhao Wangxie and others, who were far away in Handan, were completely stupid when they heard Zhang Er's report, they looked at each other for a long time, and wondered if Zhang Er was stimulated by the fight too fiercely in Jinyang, and he began to blow nonsense after a few small victories.

Chen Yu felt that Zhang Er was not a person who could talk nonsense, but he didn't dare to believe Zhang Er's record of killing, capturing, and driving away more than 70,000 Qin troops, so he didn't stand up to speak for Zhang Er, and he also planted a nail in the future against Zhang Er.

Wu Chen was in Huguan, and he could know the situation in Shangdang County by sending scouts a little, and he almost dropped his jaw when he got the scout's return, so he quickly sent someone to report Zhang Er's brilliant achievements to King Zhao, and at the same time asked Zhao Wang Xie to go out of Huguan and attack Wang Ben's headquarters with Zhang Er.

Zhang Er, who has won consecutive victories, has always been in a state of confusion, he actually didn't even sort out his thoughts on how to win, he only knew that Da Zhao finally defeated the invincible Qin army on the battlefield.

Zhang Er, who consciously became a famous general, did not listen to the adjutant general's advice, saying that he was going to the countryside to comfort or comfort the leaders of Shangdang County who were ruined under the atrocities of the Qin army, but when he drove the Qin army's foot soldiers out of Shangdang County, he was very arrogant and sent someone to notify the military ministers in the form of an order to go out of the customs and prepare to flank Wang Ben's department without the approval of Handan.

The old people in the township were about to gather people to jointly petition Zhang Er, imploring Zhang Er to sue King Zhao for disaster relief to the head of Shangdang County, and also implored Zhang Er to leave the army behind to protect the retreat of Qianshou, but when he went to the Zhao army camp, he saw that the army had already been pulled out and left.

Looking at the empty flat land where the army was opened, the Zhao people who came over with enthusiasm were dumbfounded, they were Zhao people, how could they have paid a lot of sacrifices to help Zhang Er defeat the Qin army, why did the so-called famous minister of Zhao State run away without even saying a word, or even leaving a message?

Zhang Er is a celebrity, he is still an important minister relied on by Zhao Wangxie, and he is a new famous general of Zhao State, if anyone dares to say that a group of Qiantou leaders in Shangdang County paid huge sacrifices to help him defeat the Qin army, then he has to spit on that person's face.

Qianshou? A group of cheap embryos who pay taxes, serve in the military, and serve in conscription, if there is no need to act, Zhang Er will disdain to contact, and there is a greater merit waiting for this new famous general at Huguan, how can he have the time to deal with those guys who want food, money, and seem to want a little bit of everything?

Wu Chen was stunned when he received the document sent by Zhang Er, he asked Handan for orders to attack Wang Ben's headquarters with Zhang Er, but Zhang Er bypassed the Handan center and directly ordered the military generals at the same level? (To be continued......)
