"During the ten-day period, no matter how the Qin army distributes, or its food has been exhausted, or its combat power has been exhausted, no matter what the situation, I can fight with 60,000 elites and 30,000 troops of Jiepai Ling!" Lian Po pointed to the hatred on the sand table and said, "The Qin army has no choice but to engage in battle, and its physical strength and combat power are bound to be consumed at an accelerated rate, so that our military is sure that the Qin army of Shangdang will be cut down before the arrival of Qin reinforcements."

That's right, Lian Po's opinion is obviously biased towards the radicals, striving to start a decisive battle with the Qin army as soon as possible, so as to achieve the strategic concept of eliminating the remnants of the Shangdang Qin army.

And Tian Dan's idea is obviously more conservative than Lian Po.

"General Lian." Not to be outdone, Tian Dan took the baton and began his performance: "In ten days, according to the usual situation, the Qin army has already run out of food. However, the lord on the other side is white, and it can be said that he kills people without blinking. It is completely possible to sacrifice a part of the army and concentrate the grain and straw to some of the elite in order to preserve more troops."

Tian Dan paused slightly, and continued: "In this way, the combat power of the elite troops under Lian Po's command may not be weakened much, and if you attack rashly, I am afraid that you will suffer a big loss. It would have been safer to wait for two more days and then make a tentative attack."

"Wait two more days, the attack is safe, but the idea of encircling the Qin army has also been in vain." Lian Po hurriedly shook his head and said, "You know, I'm afraid the reinforcements of the Qin army are already on the way!" Ten days is already the least time to disperse the Qin army, if we can't launch a decisive attack on the tenth day, it is very likely that the Qin army's reinforcements will arrive, and our army can only watch the Qin army slip away."

"I'd rather the Qin army be left than be trapped in danger!" Tian Dan continued unyieldingly.

Is there something wrong with that? There was nothing wrong with either of them, but one was inclined to take the risk of taking the Qin army to expand the results of the battle of Shangdang, while the other was seeking stability, trying to preserve the existing gains, and then waiting for the opportunity to fight.

And whether it's worth the risk, maybe only God knows.

Obviously, both people have their own reasons and beliefs, and it is even more impossible to convince each other.

As a result, a dispute was inevitable.

It's a pity that in the end, they couldn't convince each other. The good news is that the two reached an agreement on the motion to send scouts to continue to investigate the movements of the Qin army and the situation of the grain.

Immediately, Ti rode out again, and Lian Po and Tian Dan had to rest first with their own ideas.

Nothing was said all night.

The sun had just risen, and the two of them, who had only rested for more than two hours, came back to the sand table, trying to continue to convince each other, and of course waiting for the good news that the scouts might bring.

It's a pity that until the afternoon, there was still no progress in the argument between the two, and even the sand table deduction had their own winners and losers, and no one could suppress anyone. Sure enough, smart people are never convincing.

Fortunately, the returning scout Tanma finally brought good news: the Qin army attacked Jiepai Ridge, which was blocked by my General Zhou's troops, and more than 10,000 corpses were left under Jiepai Ridge before the queen could be evacuated.

The arrival of this news not only informed the Qin army of the further loss of combat strength, but more importantly, it confirmed the Qin army's attempt to break through from Jiepai Ridge.

However, although the strength of the Qin army was further reduced, it was still far more than the 60,000 horses that the Zhao army could suppress. In other words, the controversy between Lian Po and Tian Dan did not help in any way.

And just when Lian Po was about to forcibly pass the resolution in the name of the main general, Xu Li ran into the big tent in a hurry.

"The Admiral has woken up, and he's looking for two generals!" Xu Li clasped his hands into fists and said with a slight salute.

"Oh?" The two of them were pleasantly surprised, although the military doctor had said that there was no major problem last night, but Zhao Kuo's coma was like a boulder blocking the chests of the two from time to time.

Now that I heard that Zhao Kuo had finally woken up, how could I not be surprised!

The two glanced at each other, and they had reached a tacit understanding - to see the general, not to mention the difficulties of war.

However, Zhao Kuo, as the layout person, how could he not know the plight of Zhao Jun in the current war situation

？

......

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Zhao Kuo, who opened his eyes in a daze, immediately found that something was wrong, the original bumpy feeling was gone, and even the cramped surroundings had changed their appearance.

Obviously, he was no longer in the carriage, so he propped himself up, and the soldiers on the side hurriedly stepped forward to support him.

The pain in his chest has eased a lot, although there is still a little pain between getting up and tearing, Zhao Kuo can't care about that, look around, bonfire, map, soft couch, where can he be if he is not in the Chinese military tent?

But he had clearly told him to wake himself up before entering the city!

His eyebrows were furrowed, and Xu Li had already heard the news.

"How long have I been asleep? What time is it?" Zhao Kuo half lay on the soft couch and asked slowly.

"General: You've slept for a day and a night since you set out yesterday. It's almost now." Xu Li, who was on the side, immediately replied, and then asked, "General, how do you feel?" Does the wound still hurt?"

It's just that Zhao Kuo didn't pay attention to Xu Li's concern, but looked at Xu Li with burning eyes, and asked seriously, "Why didn't you enter the city to wake up the general?"

"General! This ......" Xu Li stopped talking.

In fact, Xu Li didn't say it, and Zhao Kuo also knew why, but this matter couldn't be passed so vaguely.

Although it is not a big problem to delay the war for a day or two now, what if you sleep longer? This not only involves the prestige of himself as a general, but also threatens the seriousness of military orders. Of course, if it is a vague past, it is also a small stain on Xu Li himself.

Zhao Kuo didn't wait for Xu Li's answer, and immediately punished: "Go and invite Lian Po and Tian Dan generals, and then go to the military justice department to get fifty military sticks!"

"Yes!" Xu Li immediately received the order.

Fifty military sticks, to say that it is not heavy, in terms of disobeying military discipline, it is already a very light punishment, but to say light, a slightly weaker body is not to mention being hit by fifty military sticks, twenty military sticks are enough to knock people unconscious.

Even if a person is as strong as Xu Li, even if the executioner is merciful, he will not have to open his flesh and hurt his muscles and bones. After all, today's executioners do not have the methods of later generations.

A bloody Xu Li is enough to gag everyone's mouths, if you take into account the starting point of Xu Li's concealment of military orders, no one can say anything that is not coming, naturally, the seriousness of military orders has also been maintained. Under the rule of no two punishments, Xu Li's violation of the order can be regarded as exposed.

I have to say that Zhao Kuo still thinks a lot about his real family.
