At this time, in the city of Qifeng, Li Xin was taking some Qin soldiers to collect grain.

"On the order of the marshal, collect food from the people of Qifeng City for military needs, if you are willing to donate, wait until the end of the war, and the Qin army will return it three times!"

Li Xin stood on the stage and shouted loudly, and a lot of people gathered below, but many people were indifferent, and their eyes were full of worry, they were afraid that the Qin army would start to rob them of their food because they had no food and they did not donate.

Looking at the indifferent and even somewhat disgusted people below, Li Xin's eyes were full of impatience, it was impossible for the Qin army to be short of food, not to mention that the granary of Xinzheng was not burned, even if the granary of Xinzheng was burned down, it was impossible for them to lack grain and grass these days by relying on the hearts and lungs of the powerful families in the four cities.

In the gathered crowd, an inconspicuous beggar looked at the impatient Li Xin and the Qin soldier with an uneasy face, and after a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, he lowered his head and left the crowd.

After the Qin soldier who was hiding in the shadows saw the beggar leaving, he nodded to the people around him and whispered

"You continue to follow him, and I'll report to the commander."

"Okay."

After saying that, the soldiers disguised as civilians headed for the camp outside the city. After the soldiers beside Li Xin whispered a few words to Li Xin, Li Xin's eyes were full of astonishment, but he still nodded.

At this time, in Shangcai City, the 50,000 army led by Wang Jian had arrived, and the guards of Xia Caicheng were reporting on the situation in Chudi.

"General, the Shouchun, Chengfu, Zhonggao and other places occupied by the Chu State are all rich places in the Chu State, with a large population, and relatively few fierce beasts, poisonous insects, and miasma, but these places have been operated by the Qu Jingzhao clan for generations, and the people believe in the Qu Jingzhao clan." The Keeper said.

"I know these things, how is the strength of the Qu Jingzhao three clans? Who is the commander-in-chief? Wang Jian asked.

"According to our spies, there are about 160,000 troops under the command of Qu Jingzhao's three clans, of which 100,000 troops were transferred to Wei a few days ago, and now there are only 60,000 troops left in the entire Chu State, including minfu and new soldiers. As for the commander-in-chief, we don't know.

Previously, according to the speculation of General Yang and General Sima, the great Sima of the Chu State of Changping Jun was Xiang Yan, and the head of the Jing family was the head of the Jing family, and the great Sima of Xiong Han, the king of Chu, was Li Yuan. The patriarch of the Jing family led the army to the Wei State, and we guess that the commander of the 60,000 army is now the patriarch of the Qu family. The guard said.

"The head of the Qu family? How is his ability to lead troops? Wang Jian frowned and asked.

There has always been friction between Qin and Chu, and for the huge Chu State, the Qin State has always regarded it as its biggest competitor, and the danger level is still above the Zhao State. On weekdays, many of them in the military get together to study the people who can lead troops to fight in the Chu State, and study their habits of marching and arranging formations, but among the people in the Taiwei Mansion who can lead troops to fight in the Chu State, there has never been this Qu family patriarch. Wang Jian subconsciously thought that this was the hidden good fighting of the Chu State, after all, no matter how stupid he was, it was impossible to hand over the comfort of the country to a person who did not understand military affairs.

The guard was stopped by Wang Qian's question, thought for a while and said

"We don't know about General Hui, this Qu family patriarch has been holding a position in Chu State before, and he has never heard of the name of marching and fighting on weekdays, but the name of corruption and bribery, trapping colleagues, and oppressing the people can often be heard."

"Is there any information about this Qu family patriarch?" Wang Jian asked.

"Yes." The Keeper said.

"Send the information, and you will go down to rest the soldiers, and send out the scouts to gather information." Wang Jian said.

"No!"

Soon the information about the Qu family patriarch was sent in, the Qin State has such a sharp weapon as the net, for collecting intelligence, assassinating important officials has an unrivaled advantage of other countries, the Qin army can win a hundred battles In addition to relying on excellent generals and a strong army, the information provided by the net is also indispensable.

After Ziyou took over the net, it was a more specific division of labor for the various parts of the entire net, especially the intelligence analysis system, which has become the core of the entire net, and the controller of this system is Ziyou. The current Qin army can basically reach the point of knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent.

Seeing that Wang Jian was seeing the information, Wang Qian's lieutenant did not make a sound to disturb, but waited silently, Wang Jian glanced at it twice and then threw the information aside.

The adjutant general asked in some surprise

"General, what's wrong?"

Wang Jian rubbed his eyebrows, his eyes were full of helplessness, he originally thought that the ability of the Qu family patriarch to hand over the safety of the country to the Qu family patriarch was valued, but after reading the information, Wang Jian knew that the Qu family patriarch had the ability to lead troops with bullshit, and the entire negative Chu country seemed to be the king of Chu, but all the power was in the hands of the Qu Jingzhao family.

In order to prevent the head of the Jing family from taking advantage of the departure of the troops to seize power, Qu Jingzhao's three families directly handed over the military power to the head of the Qu family.

"It's because I'm overthinking, this Qu family patriarch is not even as good as Zhao Kuo at the beginning." Wang Jian said.

At the beginning, Zhao Kuo also knew the principles of war, but unfortunately his opponent was Wu Anjun Baiqi, and Zhao Guo really couldn't bear it, so Zhao Kuo could only take the initiative to attack, otherwise what was waiting for Zhao Jun was a large number of Zhao soldiers who starved to death. And it is difficult to say that the head of the Qu family is not moving the art of war, Wang Jian feels that he has come to capture the Chu State is completely overkill, originally he thought that he would meet some difficult opponents, but now it seems that it is just a small shrimp one or two.

"Do we have to wait?" The adjutant asked.

"Wait, the time we agreed with Li Yuan is the day after tomorrow." Wang Jian said.

Qin and Li Yuan agreed that the Qin army and Li Yuan's army would attack the Chu State together, and whoever captured the land would belong to whomever he captured, but Shouchun had to be handed over to Li Yuan, and in exchange for Li Yuan was responsible for helping Yang Duan and resisting the remaining army of Changping Jun.

Time passed little by little, and a day later, Ziyou, who was living a leisure life in Xinzheng, received bad news.

"What do you say? Do you say it again!? Ziyou looked at the sun in front of him with some incredulity.

The expression of the sun is cold, but his eyes are also full of incomprehensible looks.

"General Wang Ben was suddenly poisoned and seriously ill, and now the entire army is leaderless. This is General Li Xin personally relayed the net killer and asked them to send it overnight, General Wang Ben has been asleep for a day and has not woken up, at first the military doctor just thought that he was just feeling cold, but now it seems that things are not so simple. Occult said again.

"How's the army doing? Did the news leak out? Ziyou asked.

According to the news that came back, as soon as General Wang Ben had an accident, General Li Xin took over the entire army, and asked people to block the news, and announced that General Wang Ben was safe. On weekdays, people pretend to be General Wang Ben and appear in the big tent. Occult said.

Hearing the words of the sun, Ziyou breathed a sigh of relief, what he was most afraid of now was that the army would be in chaos because of Wang Ben's poisoning, so that Lian Po would find an opportunity. But fortunately, Li Xin made the right choice. But things are not optimistic, Wang Ben and Li Xin spread the matter of the army's lack of food before, I am afraid that Lian Po will do it.

Ziyou's face became more and more heavy, and Ziyou, who looked at Ziyou with a serious face, stopped talking.

Ziyou sat on the seat and banged on the tabletop, and there was nothing in the room except for the sound of the table being struck. At this time, Ziyou's expression was serious, it was not uncommon for him to poison the commander of the army on the battlefield, and there was also such a thing as poisoning, soldiers, and treacherous. But in order to prevent this from happening, the commander of the army and even the generals in the army will provide the strictest protection, travel, food, these are the responsibility of special people, I am afraid that some people do not talk about martial virtues.

The Qin army is also very strict in the face of this kind of thing, Wang Ben, as the commander of the army, usually has strict standards for food, residence and travel, and is responsible for special personnel, and these people are strictly selected, there is no problem at all, the only one who can poison Wang Ben is outsiders, but Wang Ben is closely protected, and it is impossible for outsiders to poison him.

"Is there anything going on in the Wei State, the Qin army camp, and the Kaifeng City these days? How many people have come into contact with Wang Ben? Ziyou asked.

"General Li Xin is secretly investigating these things, and Luo Wang is also investigating the suspicious candidates that General Li Xin has been in contact with these days. That's right. A few days ago, there was information from Daliang that Long Yangjun of Wei State fought with the mysterious man outside the city, and Long Yangjun was defeated, but in the end, the mysterious man who was about to kill for unknown reasons fled, and Long Yangjun was nowhere to be found. According to our killer identification, the mysterious man is a member of the Taoist sect, and he used "Getaway", while Long Yangjun used the secret technique of the Yin and Yang family, the five elements of yin and yang. Occult said.

Long Yangjun, Ziyou also knows, after all, no one knows the story between Longyangjun and King Wei Anli, but Ziyou didn't expect that Longyangjun turned out to be a member of the Yin and Yang family, but thinking of the matter between Long Yangjun and King Wei Anli, Ziyou felt that this was not incomprehensible, and there was a type of person in the Yin and Yang family who seemed to pursue the so-called way of Yin and Yang transformation.

And the mysterious person of the Taoist Sect, Ziyou couldn't help but think of the conversation with Xiaomeng in Shangdang County before. The Taoist Sect, the Yin and Yang Family, Long Yangjun, and Wang Ben's poisoning made Ziyou a little headache more and more, these things seemed to be unrelated, but the coincidence of appearing at the same time made people suspicious.

"Has the news of this matter been sent back to the king?" Ziyou asked.

"It's already on the way, and it's expected to arrive in Xianyang the day after tomorrow." Occult said.

"I know, tell Zhong Ji, let him pay attention to the safety of the grain and grass warehouse at any time, if Wei State does not have enough manpower, let the net killer of Yingchuan County also go to Wei State, and must investigate the poisoning of Wang Ben. At the same time, let the net killers of Shangdang County, Xudi, Shangcai, and Xicheng all operate, and be sure to protect Mengwu, Sima Su, Wang Jian and Yang Duanhe and the four generals. You take this token to Jinghu Medical Village, and ask Mr. Nian Duan to go to Kaifeng City. Ziyou said.

The commander of the army was poisoned, which was a contempt and provocation to the entire Qin State, and if the Qin State did not react, it was inevitable that this kind of thing would not happen again.

"No!"

After the sun was worshipped, he left to arrange for the staff.

After thinking about it a few more times, Ziyou suddenly got up and shouted

"Crow, prepare the car."

"Sir! Where are we going? The figure of the crow flashed into the house and asked.

"Go to Kaifeng, I'll go in person." Ziyou said.

It has been raining heavily in the past few days, and yesterday there was a sudden power outage and the network was cut off.

In the morning, a book friend reminded me, I tried to send it out, but the net was still too bad, and now it has been repaired.
