In Xianyang, Qin State, in the palace, Ying Zheng, Wang Qian, Wei Yi, Feng Quji and others were looking at the map in the study, discussing the matter of sending troops to Chu after the winter snow melted.

Days passed, since Bai Yan broke the siege of the Chu army and killed Jing Qi and Chang Wenjun, Ying Zheng's heart once again ignited the hope of breaking Chu in a war, and it became stronger day by day.

Half of the world's territory has been included in the Qin soil, seeing that as long as Chu is destroyed, the world will be at your fingertips, after Yingzheng succeeds to the throne, the grand cause of the morning and evening can come true, and the world is Qin!

Extinguish Chu!

This is the strongest desire in Ying Zheng's heart.

And what is standing in front of Yingzheng right now is not the army of Chu, but the cold winter.

This also made Ying Zheng very uneasy, as the king of Qin, every past day, until late at night, Ying Zheng closed his eyes, and what came to his mind was how much grain and grass the Qin army in Chudong consumed.

Ying Zheng was worried that Bai Yan's defeat was not his body, but his food......

Therefore, almost every day, Yingzheng had to get the road to Chu State, and in any case, he ordered that the royal tomb, which had been repaired for more than 20 years, be stopped at this time, and all slaves would be sent to repair the road and clear the snow.

In order to send troops to Chu as soon as possible!

"Your Majesty! General Meng Wu and General Meng Tian have all come to the door! ”

Han Yu came to the study and walked to Ying Zheng's side to report.

Hearing this, under Ying Zheng's instructions, Wang Qian, Li Si, Feng Quji and others all saw that they were wearing Qin armor and Mengwu, and walked to the study with Meng Tian.

"The criminal minister Mengwu, knock to the king!"

After Meng Wu came to the study, he looked at Ying Zheng, and without saying a word, he knelt on the ground and bowed to Ying Zheng, and Meng Tian on the side also knelt on the wooden board, with his head on the ground, not daring to raise his head.

Next to the wooden frame not far away, Meng Yi looked at the actions of his father and brother at this time, looked at Yingzheng's back, and his eyes also showed guilt.

"What is General Mengwu's crime?"

Ying Zheng hurriedly stepped forward to support Meng Wu and looked at Meng Tian on the side.

"Meng Tian, the widow has already said before, the sin is not in his body, but the disaster of Changping Jun! Rise! General, please rise! ”

Ying Zheng spoke, and then helped Meng Wu up.

Next to the huge map.

Feng Quji, Wang Xuan, Li Si and other ministers of the Qin State all looked at Meng Wu and Meng Tian father and son, before Mengwu garrisoned the Qianzhong battalion, he was the chief general of the Qianzhong battalion, and now Yingzheng specially summoned Xianyang, it was planned to let Wang Jian be the main general and Mengwu as the deputy general, and send troops together to attack the Chu State.

Through Ying Zheng's actions, everyone saw Ying Zheng's determination to destroy Chu.

After Ying Zheng and Meng Wu talked for a while, Ying Zheng pulled Meng Wu and came to the map, looking at the map with a look of anticipation.

"General Mengwu, this time with Wang Jian and Wang Qian, can you be sure of attacking Chu together?"

Ying Zheng said.

In Ying Zheng's eyes, Wang Jian and Meng Wu led the troops at the same time, both of them were generals of the Qin State, and after a hundred battles, the Chu State would definitely be unable to resist, not to mention Wang Ben and Bai Yan, who attacked the Chu State in the north and east of the Chu State respectively.

The reason why I asked Meng Wu again was because I wanted to listen to Meng Wu's confidence and make me feel better.

"The King's ......"

When Meng Wu heard Ying Zheng's words, he suddenly hesitated, and looked at Ying Zheng with some concern in his eyes.

didn't get the expected reply, Ying Zheng turned his head and looked at Meng Wu in surprise, and found that Meng Wu's expression was a little worried, which made Ying Zheng frown.

"General Mengwu has concerns?"

Ying Zheng asked curiously.

In Ying Zheng's heart, not to mention that Meng Wu and Wang Jian led the troops to attack Chu, there was only one person, and there should be no worries, why did Meng Wu have such a look.

"Your Majesty!"

Meng Wu raised his hand, saluted Ying Zheng, and then looked at Meng Tian on the side.

"Previously, the king ordered Meng Tian to investigate the remnants of Changping Jun to prevent the remnants of the Qin State from causing chaos and let Meng Tian make meritorious service to atone for his crimes, and Meng Tian saw something when he was looking through the mansions of Changping Jun and Changwen Jun!"

Meng Wu looked at Ying Zheng and explained.

At this time, Meng Wu saw the curious glances of Feng Quji, Wang Juan and others, and glanced at Wang Qian, his eyes showed some worry again, and then looked at Ying Zheng.

"What?"

Ying Zheng frowned and asked curiously, first looking at Meng Wu, and then at Meng Tian, who still looked guilty.

What is it, I can't be sure that Meng Wu can mention attacking Chu.

In the Qin State, the Mengshi is a famous general, whether it is the ancestral Mengfu or the Mengwu, they all have made great achievements for the Qin State and are loyal to the Qin State.

This is also the reason why Ying Zheng values Montessori so much, but at the moment, Meng Wu's words made Ying Zheng curious.

"A book of war!"

Meng Wu saluted Ying Zheng.

Later, Meng Wu told Ying Zheng that the military book had been brought, and it was outside the study.

"Book of War?"

Ying Zheng was a little surprised when he heard Meng Wu's words, it seemed that he didn't expect that what Meng Wu was worried about was actually because of a military book.

Thinking of this, at this time, Ying Zheng was also very curious about what kind of military book it was, and he actually made Meng Wu not sure to attack the Chu State, so Ying Zheng turned his head and ordered Han Zheng to bring in the things that Meng Wu brought.

"Book of War?"

"It's actually a book of war!"

In the study, not only Ying Zheng was puzzled and curious, but also Wei Yu, Feng Quji and others, all of whom glanced at each other and whispered.

Even Wang Jian looked at Meng Wu curiously at this moment, and when he saw Meng Wu's worried eyes, Wang Jian couldn't help frowning.

The Book of War?

As a general in the court of the Qin State, Wang Jian knows Mengwu's skills very well, which can make Mengwu worry, obviously the military book is definitely not an ordinary thing.

With this thought, Wang Jian waited patiently.

After a while, when he saw Han Zheng bring a military book and several pieces of cloth into the study, Wang Jian kept his eyes on the bamboo slip and watched Ying Zheng pick up the bamboo slip.

Meng Wu also watched Ying Zheng open the bamboo slip.

"Your Majesty! Weichen speculated that Changping Jun and Chang Wenjun were determined to rebel against Qin, it was not a temporary move, I am afraid that they had been planning for a long time, this military book was based on the formation deduced by the ancient sages, coupled with the understanding of the Qin army by the two, for the Qin army! ”

Meng Wu reported to Ying Zhengyu, expressing his guesses and worries in his heart.

When he saw Meng Tian sending these bamboo slips and layouts, Meng Wu was also shocked by the contents, he didn't expect that the military book that had been lost long ago would actually be in Changping Jun's mansion, and what he didn't expect was that looking at the layout, Meng Wu noticed that Changping Jun and Chang Wenjun had obviously understood the changes in the military formation, and they had set up many countermeasures for the Qin army.

This is also the reason why Meng Wu is uneasy, Changping Jun must have already made a plan after he decided to betray the Qin State.

"Your Majesty!"

Feng Quji looked at Ying Zheng holding the bamboo slip, his face changed slightly, and when he was short of breath, he slowly raised his hand.

"Open Layout!"

When Ying Zheng heard Feng Quji's words, he came back to his senses and asked the eunuch standing in the corner of the study to come over and unfold the layout.

At this time, Ying Zheng's face was already cloudy, and his face was dark, and then he saw Feng Quji's gaze and knew what Feng Quji meant, so he handed the bamboo slip to Wang Qian.

"General Wang Qian, please take a look, you must observe its changes, find a way to break the formation for the widow!"

Ying Zheng held back the emotions in his heart, and when he looked at Wang Qian, he said with a humble and easy-going face.

For the calculation of the military array, Ying Zheng is clear, not to mention him, even the entire Qin State, I am afraid that there will be no two people who can compare to Meng Wu and Wang Qian.

Therefore, when he saw that Meng Wu had no way to crack it, Yingzheng could only pin his hopes on Wang Qian, after all, Wang Jian had experienced a hundred battles, fought half his life, and his experience was very accessible.

Wei Yi, Li Si, Feng Qujian and others also stood aside curiously and looked at Wang Qian.

"Fang Yuan Array!"

Wang Jian took the bamboo slip in Ying Zheng's hand, and when he opened it, he saw the military formation inside, and instantly showed surprise on his old cheeks.

Whether it is for Sun Bin or the battle of Changping, Wang Jian has studied it in detail, so when he saw the long-lost military formation at this moment, he finally understood why Meng Wu had concerns.

"Fang Yuan Array? ~！ ”

Next to the map, the two eunuchs were carefully opening the pieces of the layout and putting them on the huge map, and Feng Quji, Wei Yu, Li Si and others, who were still puzzled, were also taken aback when they heard Wang Qian's words, looked at Wang Jian and Meng Wu, and then glanced at each other.

In particular, Wei Yi and Li Si were the first to react.

"Sun Bin!"

Wei Yi and Li Si said the name in unison, and then looked at each other.

At this time, Li Si frowned even more, and looked at Wang Qian, although he was a legalist, Li Si was no stranger to Sun Bin, a great sage.

"General Wang Qian, is there a way to break the formation?"

Ying Zheng asked.

Ying Zheng was wearing a black royal robe, looking at Wang Qian's expression, and then at the other ministers, his heart was full of heaviness.

At this time, Wang Jian put away the bamboo slips, heard Ying Zheng's words, looked at Ying Zheng, shook his head rarely, and then came to the map, and looked carefully at the layout above.

It can be seen that on the basis of the Fangyuan array, Chang Pingjun and Chang Wenjun are already making defensive and offensive changes against the Qin army.

Perhaps Chang Pingjun and Chang Wenjun still wanted to deduce the way of conquering Qin, so they did not destroy these deduction maps, and they left in a hurry before, and they did not take them with them......

Or rather, no need to take it away at all! Because they are not afraid of being seen at all.

"Fang Yuan Array, it really is Fang Yuan Array! At the beginning, he let Bai Qi be helpless! ”

Wang Jian said with a look of amazement.

As Tsai carefully looked at the layout above, Wang Qian's face became more and more solemn, the subtlety of the formation changes, and the gap between the defenses.

"The circle array is the shield, the phalanx is the sword, the division and combination are the changers, the circle is the combination, the square array is the division, the division and the combination are alternate, the tired enemy wins, and the enemy is broken with the void......"

In the eyes of all the ministers, and even Ying Zheng, Wang Jian looked at the map deduction, even if there were no words, Wang Jian could tell the meaning of the evolution of each pattern.

Not to mention how other people expressiond, as the words blurted out, Wang Jian began to breathe rapidly, looking at the detailed square circle array formation deduction in front of him, and after comprehending the essence of it, Wang Qian, who had led the troops for decades, trembled physically and mentally, and the whole person trembled with excitement.

Circle Array! Fang Yuan Array!!

It is worthy of refusing to rise in vain, and the world is also famous! When Wang Jian thought of this, he couldn't help but have a thought in his heart, how profound Sun Bin was a hundred years ago.

If you can see it, you will never regret it again in this life!

After a long time, Wang Jian came back to his senses and sighed.

"Your Majesty!"

Wang Jian turned his head to look at Ying Zheng and said with a solemn face.

"If Changping Jun leads the Chu army to deploy this formation, Wang Jian will not have a strategy to break the enemy!"

Wang Jian said to Yingzheng.

Leading the troops for half a lifetime, for any war, Wang Jian knows that if he is sure, he will say that he is sure, and if he is not sure, he must not be strong, whether it is against Li Mu or attacking Chu State, soldiers, the land of death and life, do not be careless, do not speak falsely.

Inside the study.

Ying Zheng looked at Wang Qian, listened to Wang Qian's words, his face changed, his expression gradually became solemn, and he turned around without saying a word and looked at the layout in front of him.

"Your Majesty, the Chu army has this formation, and the only way to fight for its national strength is to fight for it! Let Chu collapse without attacking, there is a chance of victory! Fortunately, General Bai Yan ......"

Wang Jian knew Yingzheng's concerns at this time, but there was no way at the moment, the only fortunate thing was that Bai Yan took the lead in leading the troops, captured Qufu, cut off the territory between Chu and Qi, and then secretly, burned the Chu army to hoard grain, and stuck to the city, consuming the Chu army.

Obviously, Bai Yan also planned to consume the national strength of the Chu State, and defeat the Chu State when the Qi State was unable to assist the Chu State.

While thinking about it, Wang Jian's pupils suddenly shrank, and when he thought of something, he suddenly looked at Ying Zheng.

"Not good! Wang, Wang Ben led the troops south, General Bai Yan will definitely send troops, if it is a battle with the Chu army, General Bai Yan does not know this military book, Changping Jun has already taken precautions......"

Wang Jian thought of the fact that his eldest son Wang Ben led the troops south, and his face suddenly changed greatly.

The other side.

Hearing Wang Qian's words, Feng Quji, Wei Yi, Li Si and others all remembered at this time, and turned their heads to look at Meng Wu, only then Meng Wu said that these military formations were all deduced in advance by Changping Jun and Chang Wenjun to betray the Qin State......

I'm afraid it was premeditated!

Doesn't that mean that when everyone doesn't know, this arrangement of troops has already been secretly handed over to the Chu State, and the Chu army has already rehearsed and deployed troops, waiting to fight with the Qin army!!

Thinking of this, Li Si, Feng Quji, Wei Yi, Wang Juan and others were all shocked.

Oh no, I'm afraid something big is going to happen this time!

Previously, Bai Yan led his troops to stick to the city and not engage the Chu army head-on, so as to resist the Chu army and find an opportunity, but now, as Wang Ben moves south, Bai Yan will have no way to avoid it and engage the Chu army head-on!!

With this thought in their minds, Li Si, Meng Wu and the others looked up at Ying Zheng and found that Ying Zheng was looking at the map, his gloomy face and eyes were full of uneasiness.

………………………

Pu Tunnel Plain.

The sound of screaming and killing filled the sky, at a glance, the entire plain to the traces of the army of Qin and the army of Chu, among the tens of thousands of troops at war, countless black flags of Qin and the banner of Chu alternated, and in the easternmost part of the plain, there were countless army of Qin, looking at the battlefield, the army of Chu formed a military formation.

"Fang Yuan Array!"

From Yang Yan, I learned that the military formation of the Chu army was actually the military formation that Zhao Kuo used to resist Bai Qi, the Fangyuan formation.

Zan Shou, Yan Yue, Yu Feng, Yu Lu and all other Qin generals all looked at the main general Bai Yan.

"Order all the soldiers to retreat fifty paces, besiege but not attack!"

Bai Yan rode on a war horse and looked at the battlefield in the distance, the soldiers of the Qin army could not break through the phalanx of the Chu army at all, so he opened his mouth and gave an order.

Because on the plain, it was not a high mountain looking down on the plain, so for the army of the Chu State, Bai Yan could not see the detailed formation structure of the entire Fangyuan Array, as well as the changes in the formation.

But perhaps because of this, Bai Yan made up his mind to abandon all obsessions with the formation method and use other methods to deal with the battlefield in front of him.

"General, the last general is willing to lead the troops and go to break the formation!"

He took the lead in looking at Bai Yan and arched his hand.

Looking at the Chu military array in the distance, it seemed dangerous, but he did not have the slightest fear.

"General, the last general, please order, lead the iron cavalry, and go to break the formation!"

Yan Mao looked at Yan Yan's actions, and not to be outdone, he looked at Bai Yan and asked to lead the troops to break the formation.

Whether it was Yan Yan or Yan Mao, they all wanted to relieve Bai Yan's worries, go to forcibly crack the phalanx of the Chu army, and make the first contribution.

Ascend first, break the formation, cut the general, capture the flag, and stand for one of them, which is the first achievement! And now it is against the army of Chu, the opportunity to make the first merit is even more rare, if you win this battle, and make the first merit in this battle, whether it is in the Qin army or in the Qin court, you will have enough prestige to gain a foothold in the future.

"Don't be in a hurry, the way to break the formation is not to attack!"

When Bai Yan heard Yan and Yan Mao's request, he shook his head and did not agree.

Riding on the back of a war horse, wearing the armor of the Qin army, feeling the cold wind on the plain, thinking about it, Bai Yan looked at Yang Yan and the other generals of the Qin State.

"When the meeting will order more troops, the ironclad battalion of your leader will be mixed in it, and when you arrive at the battlefield, I will immediately order the withdrawal of troops, pretending to be defeated and retreating, if the Chu army changes formation! Listen to his orders, take the lead, and break his formation! ”

Bai Yan instructed at him.

The ironclad battalion is the hole card in Bai Yan's hand, and it is also Bai Yan's means to forcibly block the Chu army's change of formation.

A long, long time ago, Bai Yanwei was preparing to attack Chu, although the number of soldiers in the ironclad battalion was small, but it was enough to play a decisive role on the battlefield.

"No!"

When he heard Bai Yan's words, he gave up the order, and then turned to leave.

After Bai Yan watched Yan leave, he turned his head to look at Yan Mao.

"Yan Mao, immediately order the whole army to ride to the right flank of the Chu army, attack with bows and crossbows, and no orders must be forced! If you get the order, you need to use the momentum of the arrow to surprise the Chu army! ”

Bai Yan instructed Yan Mao to transfer the most mobile iron cavalry and side cavalry to the right flank of the battlefield to deal with any unexpected situation.

"No!"

Yan Mao gave up his order, then rode around and left, commanding the iron cavalry and side cavalry, and went to the right flank of the battlefield.

Bai Yan rode a war horse, led the army of the Qin State, looked at the phalanx of the Chu State in the distance, and looked at the battlefield, there were constantly Qin soldiers who wanted to break the formation, and finally were stabbed to the ground by countless Changge, and then died tragically in a pool of blood.

"Increase the number of troops by 10,000 soldiers!"

Bai Yan ordered.

"No!!"

"Increase the number of troops by 10,000 generals !!"

Among the Qin army, there were once again countless messenger scouts, and the mighty Qin army was in front of one phalanx, speeding back and forth, and in less than a while, under the orders of the generals of the Qin army, one by one, the Qin army phalanx advanced towards the battlefield again.

Bai Yan rode a war horse, watched this scene closely, looked at the mighty Qin army array, and rushed to the battlefield again.

"General, there are no troops on the left! If the former army feigns defeat, I am afraid that the Chu army will attack the left side! ”

Yang Yan looked at Bai Yan with a worried face, and reminded him that the left side was empty at this time, and if the front army feigned defeat, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"It's to let the Chu army attack!"

Bai Yan listened to Yang Yan's words and said softly.

Looking at the huge military formation of the Chu army from afar, Bai Yan did not believe that there was any military formation in the world that had no flaws, if there were no flaws, after thousands of years, there would be no need for future generations to deduce countless phalanxes.

Fang Yuan array, there must be a flaw!

The Fangyuan Array is not the military array deduced by the original Gu Xian, let alone the pinnacle of the military array in later generations, it must have its own flaws.

At present, whether it is their Qin army or the Chu army led by Changping Jun, the purpose of the battle is to defeat the opponent, so in any situation of equal strength, any defensive military formation will eventually change into an offensive military formation.

Since Bai Qi faced the enemy's defense and faced the Fangyuan array in Changping, he didn't find a flaw, so the flaw was probably in the Chu army's change of formation, or attack!

"You want the Chu army to attack?"

When Yang Yan heard Bai Yan's words, his brows tightened, he looked at Bai Yan with a puzzled expression, and then looked at the army of Chu with some worry in his eyes.

All the other Qin generals around, like Yu Feng, Yu Lu and others, as well as other Qin generals, also did not understand why Bai Yan gave up the offensive, but instead let the Qin army fall into the Chu army's counteroffensive and give the Chu army a chance.

But because it was Bai Yan's order, everyone didn't refute it, but everyone looked at the battlefield with a slightly uneasy expression.
