Wang Jian pulled out his sword from its sheath, and then took out his sword and collided for a while.

The knife had not cut off the sword, but it had been cut through a gap and a crack.

Look at the knife again, safe and sound.

"It's a good knife."

"It's a little worse than General Bai's original horizontal knife, but it's enough."

"There are more than a thousand extra knives, and General Bai really wants to give them to me?"

Wang Jian said and looked at Bai Zhong expectantly.

No one would not want such a good knife.

Bai Zhong said: "I promised the general, how can I break my promise, the general can take it back first, check if there is any problem, if there is, tell me as soon as possible, and then go to those craftsmen to settle accounts." ”

Wang Jian said with satisfaction: "Then I'm not welcome, put it all away and take it away!" ”

The soldiers around him loaded the extra 1,000 knives back into the cart and brought them back to their camp.

Bai Zhong sent Wang Jian away, and then looked at the Iron Eagle Warriors, all of whom were lining up to receive weapons, and soon each received a knife, all of them learned Wang Qian's way, and cut their original bronze swords to test the quality of the knife.

"General, I've tried them all, and there is no problem with the knife."

After a while, Luo Qing came over first to report.

Bai Zhong nodded slightly: "These knives will be the weapons you will use to kill the enemy on the battlefield in the future, and the knives will be better used with the killing skills I taught you, and you will be able to experience it on the battlefield, now give me all the horses and continue to practice riding and shooting and slashing on horses." ”

In terms of equestrianism, each and every one of them has been practicing perfectly in the past four months.

However, for the time being, there is no chance to go to the battlefield and fight with real cavalry, and it is impossible to determine their strength.

The training for immediate combat soon went on for several more days.

Bai Zhong saw that they were almost well trained, and asked them to train in foot combat slashing, and as soon as possible they got used to the weight and usage of this kind of knife.

Time passed quickly, and before I knew it, it was May of the fifteenth year of the reign of King Qin.

Bai Zhong got the news that Ying Zheng was going to summon all their generals, and immediately returned to Xianyang Palace from the military camp, and when he walked into the main hall, he saw that the close ministers around Ying Zheng were basically all here.

At this time, Ying Zhenghui was summoned, and they had an idea at the same time.

That was when it was time to send troops to destroy Zhao.

"The widow got the news that there was a great drought in Zhaoguo, there was no harvest of grain grains last autumn, and it was almost impossible to sow seeds in spring this year, do you think this is a great opportunity?"

Ying Zheng couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart.

The drought in Zhao is like God giving him a chance to send troops to destroy Zhao.

Bai Zhong thought about the development trajectory after the destruction of Han, and the Zhao State did experience a drought on its side, so the Qin State would send troops to destroy Zhao.

Ying Zheng should have known last year that Zhao Guo was in severe drought, but he patiently waited until May to determine that Zhao Guo could not even carry out spring ploughing normally, and the heart of destroying Zhao was even more imminent.

"This is a good opportunity for the Heavenly King."

Although Duke Qi is old, he often participates in various deliberations, and first said: "The great drought in Zhao State, the lack of food and grass in the army, and the Zhao army can't eat enough, where does the strength come from to fight?" Famine will soon break out in the territory of Zhao State, and when the time comes, the country will be in chaos, and my Great Qin army will attack Zhao State again, which is equivalent to pouring oil on the fire, what can Zhao Wangqian use to deal with it? ”

The others all agreed with this sentence and nodded their heads one after another.

"Good!"

Ying Zheng said in a loud voice: "General, the widow ordered you to lead the troops to destroy Zhao, how many people do you think will be needed for this battle?" ”

Wang Jian is notoriously stable in battle, considering that the strength of Zhao is not bad, he said: "The minister needs an army of 300,000, and Zhao will be destroyed!" ”

Ying Zheng said decisively: "The Lantian battalion sent 100,000 troops, and there are still 100,000 people in Shangjun, and the widows are handed over to the general, and then cross the Taihang Mountain to enter the northern land of Zhao State, as for the remaining 100,000 people, send troops from Hedong County, Mengqing!" ”

"The minister is here!"

Meng Wu strode forward.

Ying Zheng continued: "Does Meng Qing have the confidence to attack Yecheng again? ”

Last year in Yecheng, Meng Wu was forced to retreat by the Sanjin coalition army, which was one of his few defeats, and when he heard that the king was willing to give himself another chance, he immediately received the order and said: "The minister will not let the king down." ”

The soldiers were divided into two ways to destroy Zhao, Wang Qian's 200,000 men attacked the northern land of Zhao State, and Mengwu's 100,000 people attacked the southern land of Zhao State, there was no problem with such an arrangement, and they had no other opinions.

Ying Zheng was very satisfied, his eyes fell on Bai Zhong's body, and continued: "Bai Qing." ”

"The minister is here!"

"You are with the general in this battle, Li Mu has been stationed in the north, and this time when you enter the north of Zhao State, you will definitely face Li Mu."

Ying Zheng asked, "Can Bai Qing have the confidence to defeat Li Mu and take the northern land of Zhao State?" ”

Bai Zhongzuo said, "The minister can bring Li Mu's head back." ”

"So much the best!"

Ying Zheng stroked his palm.

"The king, the minister has a plan."

At this time, Li Si stood up and said.

"Tell me quickly!"

"As Gong Qi said, there will soon be a famine in Zhao State, and Zhao Wangqian will have to buy grain from other countries to alleviate domestic problems."

Li Si narrowed his eyes and continued: "Among the current six countries, those who have the ability to sell a large amount of grain to Zhao State, except for our Great Qin, is Qi State, and the minister thinks that he should join forces with Qi State to let Qi State not sell grain to Zhao State, you must know that although the Zhao army is hungry, it is not as weak as the Han army, and it will be easier to fight if they starve them first." ”

As soon as he finished saying this, the others thought for a moment and felt that it was feasible.

The overall strength of the Zhao army is much stronger than that of Han, and there is a general like Li Mu, if he wants to destroy Zhao like Han at once, it is not very likely, and it is easy to fall into a stalemate.

For example, the previous Battle of Changping lasted for three years.

A long-term and protracted war is a competition of national strength.

The national strength of the Qin State is naturally no problem, the Zhengguo Canal in the north has a bumper harvest year after year, and there are thousands of miles of fertile fields in Bashu in the south, and there is Dujiangyan, which can provide a steady stream of food.

Zhao is experiencing a great drought, and if he tries to starve any more time, it will accelerate the intensification of the contradictions, and it will be easier to destroy the country.

"Captain Ting's plan is very good, Shangqing!"

Ying Zheng said again.

Shangqing Yao Jia hurriedly stepped forward and said, "The minister is here." ”

Ying Zheng said: "You send an envoy to the State of Qi as soon as possible to persuade the King of Qi to cut off the supply of grain to the State of Zhao, if the King of Qi does not agree, don't blame the widow for being ruthless." ”

"Yui!"

Yao Jia responded: "We, Great Qin, signed an alliance with the Qi State, and the King of Qi did not dare to disobey. ”

Ying Zheng nodded slightly, and said: "Wang Jian and Meng Wu, you will fight again in half a month, and it will be decided!" ”

"Yui!"

Wang Jian and Meng Wu responded in unison.

The plan and method of destroying Zhao were thus determined.

Subsequently, Yingzheng asked Shi Feng to mobilize grain and grass as soon as possible within half a month, and transport them to Shangjun and Hedong County respectively.

The prelude to the destruction of Zhao is about to be opened.

The progress of Qin's annihilation of the Six Kingdoms has accelerated a lot.

Bai Zhong was thinking that he could fight on the battlefield again.
