"The king himself gave him an axe, which can behead all the generals in the army."

Zhao Tuo couldn't help but smile bitterly when he thought of the scene where Li Xin used an axe to crack open the eucalyptus.

Meng Wu is indeed old-fashioned, as Zhao Tuo expected, he vetoed Li Xin's strange strategy in front of the generals, and he was almost able to reverse the situation.

But unfortunately, although Meng Wu has qualifications, he is only a deputy general, and in the face of the power given to Li Xin by Qin Wangzheng, he still bowed his head after all.

There is no other order!

The second order is punished!

In the army, there can only be one voice.

At the end of the military discussion, Li Xin decided the combat strategy of the 200,000 Qin army, and the generals returned to the camp today to rest and convey the military order. Early tomorrow morning, we will start combat operations in accordance with Li Xin's arrangements.

Now that the results have come out, Zhao Tuo no longer tries to change it, after he returns to the camp, he asks Shima to arrange logistics to kill cattle and sheep to feed the soldiers, at least before going to the battlefield, to give everyone a good meal.

After handing over the rest of the military affairs to a few two or five hundred lords, Zhao Tuo took Xi Qigu and a few short soldiers and walked towards Huaiyang City.

The excuse for him to enter the city was to visit Huan Zhao, who was lying in Huaiyang City to recuperate, and say goodbye to him before leaving.

Zhao Tuo did not have the jurisdiction of the lieutenant and the general, so he did not need to report to others when he entered the city directly. As for Li Xin, if he knew the news, I am afraid he would only pat Zhao Tuo's shoulder and praise him for his robes.

Of course, the relationship between Zhao Tuo and Huan Zhao is not deep enough to visit him in person before leaving, and the reason why he is using this guise is just to enter the city to explore the reality of the city.

"Historically, Changping Jun used Huaiyang to oppose Qin, cutting off the Qin army's back route, which led to the defeat of this battle against Chu. Now because of my involvement, Li Xin's battle plan is definitely different from history, but this man's rebellion should not change."

[In view of the general environment, Zhao Tuo walked through the gate of Huaiyang and entered the former capital of Chu.

In the city of Huaiyang, it was depressing and solemn, perhaps because of the Qin army stationed outside the city, all the original residents of the city shrank at home, and rarely went out except for necessary things. There was not even a single child playing in the streets of the city, and when a gust of wind blew, dust and sand flew up, and it looked very depressed.

Zhao Tuo walked to a corner with a short soldier, and happened to meet a young man from Chu carrying water.

The boy was about eleven or twelve years old, and he was struggling to turn around with a broken wooden bucket, and the slightly muddy water in the bucket rippled with the boy's movements.

Perhaps he didn't expect to encounter a group of Qin people around the corner, especially the Qin people who were the leader and wore a bright crown on his head, the young man was startled, and his foot slipped and fell heavily on the ground, not only the wooden barrel filled with water overturned on the ground, but even he himself hit a stone, and his forehead was bloody.

Zhao Tuo frowned and motioned for Xi Qigu to step forward to help.

As soon as Xi Qigu took a few steps, the young man jumped up as if frightened, he covered the wound on his head, glared at Zhao Tuo hatefully, muttered a few difficult words in his mouth, and then didn't even want the bucket on the ground, and ran away.

"Soldier, what was this kid talking about just now?" ….

Xi Qigu looked stunned, he didn't understand the Chu dialect.

Zhao Tuo shrugged, indicating that he didn't understand either.

But judging from the young man's expression, maybe it was something like "Qin Kou"?

"A year ago, the residents of the city were all Chu people, and if you go back to several generations, they are all Chu people from generation to generation. Although the Qin State took Huaiyang, it couldn't take the heart of the Chu people. Therefore, Changping Jun raised the banner, and Huaiyang was all over the city."

Zhao Tuo was in a heavy mood, thinking of the hateful eyes of the Chu young man just now, thinking that it was also the heart of the fifty thousand Chu people in the entire Huaiyang City.

The hearts of the people are like this, as long as there is a leader to take the lead, it is really a rebellion!

In the blink of an eye, thousands, or even tens of thousands, of Chu troops can be gathered.

"Let's go."

Zhao Tuo sighed lightly, seeing that from the Chu man boy just now, he had already seen the results of the future.

Changping Jun raised his arms and shouted, Huaiyang turned behind Mengwu, cutting off the Qin army's grain road home,

There is even more Chu army echoing in Xiangcheng, how can you not be defeated in such a battle situation?

Everyone walked outside a large mansion, which was the mansion of the nobles of the Chu State, and it was quite elegant and brilliant. Huan Zhao needed to recuperate nearby due to a heart attack, and was sent to this mansion to let him recuperate here with peace of mind.

Zhao Tuo asked the soldiers guarding the door to report and ask to see Huan Zhao.

However, after a while, the soldier came out of the mansion and said embarrassedly, "Zhao Junhou, the right chief said that he was unwell and it was inconvenient to receive the army. Please come back."

"In that case, then I'll have to ...... another day Forget it, you tell Brother Huan and let him recuperate. Also, be careful of the Chu people."

Zhao Tuo was halfway through his polite words, and suddenly remembered that if Huaiyang rebelled, Huan Zhao would inevitably fall into the hands of the Chu people here, and at that point, the two of them might not see each other again.

Although there is a disagreement with each other, they are close to enemies. But after all, it was a robe, especially when Zhao Tuo first went to the battlefield, he fought under Huan Zhao, and this person was his real old leader.

Now that Huan Zhao lives in this city, he has little chance of life, and he goes out with the army, and the future is uncertain, how can there be no sense of sadness about the death of a rabbit and a fox.

Thinking of this, Zhao Tuo couldn't help but sigh and walked back.

"Be careful?"

On the couch, Huan Zhao frowned and asked the woman standing on the side of the couch to help him up.

"Zhao Tuo, don't think I don't know what your idea is. It's just that you want to come to me to show off that you can go to the battlefield to make meritorious contributions, and I can only sit on the sickbed. Phew, shameless villain, really hateful. Seeing that I didn't let you enter the mansion, before leaving, I asked me to be careful of the Chu people, and deliberately came to scare me. Hehe, Huaiyang has Changping Jun in charge, and there are 200,000 troops in front, how can the Chu people fight here, why should I be careful?"

"I see that you Zhao Tuo should be careful of Chu people when you go to the battlefield, it is best to be caught by the Chu people with a mistake, and after torturing you fiercely, you will be forced to surrender. When General Li destroys the Chu State, you, Zhao Tuo, will also be ruined! This will relieve the hatred in my heart!"

Huan Zhao said a vicious curse in his mouth, and after he finished speaking, he turned to the woman next to the couch and ordered, "Fetch me a bowl of honey water."

The woman looked up and stared at Huan Zhao in a daze.

"Honey, get it, fool." ….

Huan Zhao glared at the woman fiercely, and she was trembling, and hurriedly went out to get honey.

"These Chu girls are really stupid, or Qin women are easy to use."

Huan Zhao muttered and went to sleep on the couch again.

Huaiyang City Head.

Changping Jun stood on the city wall, standing southward, the autumn wind blowing, rolling his sleeves and fluttering.

Under the city wall, several Qin people walked out of the city gate and walked towards the military camp not far away.

Changping Jun's gaze fell on the young man who was the leader, wearing a crane crown and wearing armor, quite heroic.

"Zhao Tuo."

He muttered, "It would be a pity for such a young man to die on the battlefield."

Instead, he looked at the two men standing beside him.

This is the loyal dead soldier that Changping Jun has raised over the years, and he can do anything for him.

"Tomorrow, when the army pulls out the camp, there will be scouts to explore the way forward. I will also send a group of scouts out of the city to reconnoiter the movements of the Chu army. Then you will follow. However, if you don't go to Xiangcheng, go in the direction of Xinyu in the east, where there are people waiting, can you understand?"

"We understand."

The two looked at each other and agreed.

Changpingjun nodded and looked back at the outside of the city.

Watching the young man's figure fade away, a fierce look appeared in his eyes.

"Since you can't collect it, let's destroy it."

……

Zhao Tuo returned to the camp, feasted the soldiers that night, and let the people under his command eat a lot, and ate their stomachs round one by one, each soldier was satisfied, and there was no resistance to the things that would go to the battlefield tomorrow.

It was early the next morning.

Outside Huaiyang City, the drums beat loudly.

In every barracks, there are crowds of people, one by one

The spear-bearers began in line.

Zhao Tuo put on armor all over his body, walked out of the tent, and stepped onto the school field.

The 5,000 soldiers under his command are already neatly arranged under the command of the generals of various ministries.

The soldiers were majestic and energetic, and their eyes all fell on the young military marquis on the stage.

"The army is waiting, and the whole 5,000 people have been assembled. Please, the order!"

Xi Qigu shouted for his life.

Zhao Tuo nodded, his eyes swept over the faces that were either excited or expectant.

He took a deep breath and raised his hand, "Let's go!"

"Expedition!"

Drums beat.

Outside Huaiyang City, more than 100,000 Qin soldiers set off from camp.

The 70,000 Qin army, under the leadership of the deputy general Meng Wu, attacked south under the command of the main general Li Xin, and went straight to Xiangcheng on the side of Yingshui.

The elite of the 30,000 Guanzhong and the 5,000 soldiers under the command of Zhao Tuo, under the leadership of the main general Li Xin, marched westward under the banner of Mengwu.

They are going to fight in a roundabout way, like a sharp knife, from the flank into the heart of the Chu State.......
