After inspecting all eighty camps, it was already dusk. Wang Yu returned to the big tent and took a breath. I scooped a bowl of water, put a pinch of fried corn in the water, quietly watched them swell up, and then drank them whirringly. At this time, a military envoy came in and conveyed Bai Qi's instructions: All the five doctors should go to the tent every day to discuss matters. Wang Gong responded.

With the sound of drums, a new day begins. After the routine ordering of troops, the armies began to organize their camp affairs and prepare breakfast. Zhao's camp was still smoky.

Wang Yu took four five doctors and their entourage to the small mountain in front of him and met Bai Qi. This was the first time since Bai Qi was appointed general that a meeting of senior generals had been convened.

The five doctors of the Qin State are both titles and official positions, which are equivalent to the 10,000 generals of the Zhao army, that is, the military chief who leads 10,000 troops. Generally speaking, the title and the official position are corresponding, and those who serve as the five doctors must have the titles of the five doctors. However, in the Qin army's military merit title system, there are actually very few people who can be promoted to the five major doctors by virtue of their military merits, and it is not bad to have an officer who can be equipped with five major doctors in a large army. But after all, the army still needs officers to lead it, so it is not uncommon to take public passengers, and even the princess and lord serve as the five doctors. Like Li Bing, he even served as the county lieutenant with the Duke of Gongda, leading 20,000 horses, and the five doctors and the Duke under him were also Duke Doctors, and the Duke Doctor and the official doctor were generally filled by the doctor. When Bai Qi convened a meeting of the five doctors, he naturally did not convene people with five doctors, but people who held the official positions of the five doctors, that is, generals who commanded troops of more than 10,000 people.

The Nanjun army brought out by Bai Qi from Gaodu was originally 20,000 people, and there should have been two five doctors. However, in the battle with the Zhao army, the Nanjun army suffered heavy losses, with a full 3,000 casualties. Among the remaining troops, Bai Qi led an elite 5,000 men to be stationed around Xiaoshanbao, Nanjun Wei led 7,000 men to Dongling, and nearly half of the remaining 5,000 people were lightly wounded.

Wang Di's Bashu army of 40,000 should be commanded by the Ba County Lieutenant and the Shu County Lieutenant. However, neither Ba County nor Shu County sent a county lieutenant to lead the team, and only sent an escort force of 500 people to escort 20,000 people. In order to rectify these 40,000 people and form them into an army, Wang Ji also took great effort, and it took half a year from October of the first year to April of the following year to succeed. The by-product brought was that there were only four five doctors among the 40,000 people, who directly obeyed Wang Di's orders, and there was no county lieutenant; And the titles of the five doctors are very low.

On the other side of Shicheng are the troops of Guanzhong, Beidi, and Shangjun, the hometown of Qin. The fundamentals of the Qin people in Guanzhong, needless to say, are strong in combat. Beidi and Shangjun are dry and cold lands, grazing is the main business, farming is a sideline, the population is not large, the terrain is dangerous, many tribes around still advocate the law of the jungle, as a legitimate livelihood, so everyone is accustomed to war, fierce and brave. They were subsumed into the Qin State first, but due to the problem of lifestyle, they were not like the Guanzhong Army, with neat battle formations and skillful orders.

The Guanzhong Army sent out strictly trained prisoners, and the officers at all levels were battle-tested knights, so even so, they could not match all the required titles. Guanzhong was not a county, there was no unified administrative body, Wang Ling served in the central department of the Qin State and was sent to command the Guanzhong army. He was one of the few people in this Qin army who really had the title of the Great Doctor.

Shangjun was originally Weidi, entered Qin very early, was located in the north, and was invaded by the Xiongnu from time to time, and belonged to the frontier Yan County. Shangjun Weiyi was appointed after Wu Anjun Bai Qi was appointed as the Shangjun Shou, he was a member of the Qin clan, and he had some relatives with the original Shangjun Shou; Because of the reasons of the clan, the merits were excellent, and the officials were promoted quickly. was transferred to Bai Qi as a deputy, somewhat taking care of the interests of the former county guard. Although it is a clan, it is also an official who fought in a war, and he is also decent under Bai Qi's hands, and there is no mistake in handling things. After Bai Qi was transferred to Hedong Guard, Shangjun did not appoint a new county guard, so the county lieutenant acted as the county officer. After the Changping War began, the county lieutenant personally led the prisoners of Shangjun to the battlefield.

The Shangjun army nominally had 20,000 men, but in fact half of them were not prisoners, but herdsmen. They led their cattle and horses to join the army and undertook the task of transportation in Changping. There are only 10,000 people who are really responsible for the combat mission, and the county lieutenant is the commander-in-chief, and there are no five doctors, and the following are the two public doctors who serve as public passengers.

The northern land is the birthplace of the Yiqu. Due to the relationship between King Yiqu and Empress Dowager Xuan, Beidi and Guanzhong lived in harmony for decades; Zhang Lu opened the road from Guanzhong to Yiqu, which not only facilitated the mobilization of the Qin army, but also facilitated the flow of personnel. Under the personal operation of Marquis Wei Ran, the six counties that were originally under Yiqu were merged into one county. Beidi County covers a wide area, starting from Guanzhong Beishan in the south, reaching the edge of the desert in the north, the north and south are nearly thousands of miles apart, but the population is sparse, and there are only six counties with tens of thousands of people. The total population is only a little more than 100,000, and more than half of the population is concentrated in Yiqu County, which is close to Xianyang. This time, the Northland Army also brought a lot of livestock to replenish the number. In addition to the prisoners, there are more hungry people in the army, and when they come out to fight, they can be provided with food and drink by the government. Not long after the Qin law was practiced in the land of Yiqu, although the people only practiced the battle formation, they were brave and good at fighting, and they were not afraid of death, and they were an army with combat effectiveness. Li Bing, the captain of the northern region, once served as the captain of Shangjun, later served as the captain of Hedong, and then served as the captain of the northern region. The capital of Beidi County is in Yiqu County, which is actually not far from Xianyang, so there are many officials in Guanzhong who work in Beidi.

This meeting was the first gathering of generals of various armies since Bai Qi took office as a general on the Changping battlefield, and it was of great significance.

Bai Qi's appointment as a general had not been announced in the army before. He appeared in various military camps, and everyone thought he was Hedong Shou. But out of reverence for Bai Qi, everyone voluntarily obeyed his command. And the official commander-in-chief of the Changping battlefield in everyone's mind is Zuo Shu Changwang Di. This time, Bai Qi personally ordered the officials above the five doctors of each army to gather in their big tents, and everyone suddenly realized that the actual commander might be Bai Qi, not Wang Di. In such a small battlefield, concentrating so many troops for a decisive battle, and the Qin army surrounded the Zhao army, which was two or three times more than its own strength, these things that everyone felt incredible suddenly became understandable: it was because of Bai Qi! If there is white rising, a miracle will happen!

The 5,000-strong 10-strong battalions of the Nanjun Army were set up around the mountain bag, and the top and bottom of the mountain bag were stationed by Bai Qi's own battalion. Bai Qi is Wu Anjun, with a pro-battalion strength of 4,000 people. However, it was very difficult to bring the Nanjun soldiers, and it took a lot of effort to rectify the Nanjun soldiers, and most of the soldiers of his pro-battalion were placed in each battalion as the commander of the Shiwu, and the pro-battalion currently has only two battalions of 1,000 people, and they are camped around the mountain bag. The big tent of Bai Qi was set up between the two camps, and one or two hundred of his retinue and retainers formed an independent camp and stationed on the highest peak. Dan water flows from the east side of the mountain and provides a good source of water for the camp. After two days of construction, it has become a strong barracks, and the battalions are both independent of each other, but also echo each other, and really affect the whole body.

Bai Qi ordered last night that all officers of the army with five doctors and above gathered at the meeting. Early this morning, he ordered all battalions to strengthen their vigilance to guard against a sneak attack by the Zhao army. The sentry continued to advance until he returned one mile outside Zhao Lei.

After the army was finished, the officials in the various fortresses came out together, either on horseback or on foot, and the large and small entourages hugged each other in front of each other, and they all entered the camp on the hill together.

The white tent was just a curtain, hidden on all sides, and the gap exposed in the middle was the tent door. The retinue of 100 people was divided into four sides, and no one was allowed to approach them. There were no cushions in the tent, and a few retainers carried water from the bottom of the mountain and placed it on the left and right of the tent door, covered with a few small lamps, for the meeting to take their own free reins.

The first to arrive was Wang Yi and his entourage, with four doctors and five doctors. And then there is Sima Jin.

Sima Jin is the title of the fifth doctor, and the official position is the national lieutenant, who is in charge of the national military, and is currently entrusted by the king of Qin to manage 20,000 swordsmen. 20,000 swordsmen should have two five doctors, but the total number of swordsmen is only 50,000, always led by the King of Qin, there are no five doctors, the highest position is ten public passengers, but the public passengers generally have the title of five doctors, and they are battle-hardened warriors. After the 20,000 swordsmen arrived in Changping, they were separated into two places: Taniguchi and Shicheng; Both foreign lords will be very careful with their use, lest they be broken. Sima Jin is now stationed in Gukou, and now Bai Qi has convened a meeting, and Sima Jin did not bring two swordsmen to come.

The last place to arrive is the royal tomb of Shicheng. The big tent of the royal tomb is in Danzhuling, which is the farthest away from the big tent of Baiqi. Yesterday, I received a notice from Bai Qi of a meeting, and temporarily moved the big tent to Li Bing overnight, and this morning, after the completion of the army, the two doctors of the Guanzhong Army and the captain of Shangjun all arrived at Li Bing's army at the time of reporting the results of the army. Wang Ling only gave the necessary instructions, and the envoys returned to report, and set off with all the participants.

In addition to the two five doctors, the Northland Army also has a member of the army. Meng Fu is a new Qi person, no title, the identity is the guest of the King of Qin, whether it is the King of Qin or Pi Wan is very important, this time to the front line to participate in the war, in fact, is to get credit, ready to use it in the future. His current position is to join the army as a captain of the North Land, and he can barely be regarded as an official above the five doctors. Although Wang Ling arrived in Li Bing's camp first, not far from Bai Qi's big tent, he arrived later than Wang Ji and Sima Jin because he had to wait for the two five doctors of the Guanzhong Army.

All the officials who arrived, the entourage remained at the bottom of the mountain, and only the participants could go up the mountain. Bai Qi stood in front of the tent, and when an officer arrived, he saluted Bai Qi on both sides and brought in the big tent.

In the middle of the big tent is a mottled wooden table, which is about the daily use of Baiqi, and there is nothing on the case. Bai Qi said: "There is no seat in the tent, but choose a place to sit and sit safely." The four and five doctors sat down, and Wang Yi was called outside the tent by Bai Qi, and stood with him to greet the generals at the meeting, and discussed some things casually.

Sima Jin came alone, and Bai Qi didn't even let him enter the tent, and directly let him stand outside the tent with him.

Wang Ling brought the largest number of people, a total of four five doctors, two county lieutenants and one soldier, and finally arrived. Bai Qi, Wang Ji and Sima Jin welcomed them into the tent together.
