Chapter 284 Who can be the general (2)
"It's just used 200,000 people."
When he really heard Li Xin's answer, all the generals present looked at Li Xin at the same time.
I saw Li Xin listening to his chest, full of confidence, his eyes firm, and no expression of weakness.
Li Xin really dares to say it?
When Meng Tian said that when he was 300,000 people, he thought he was already radical enough. Unexpectedly, Li Xin was even more radical than him.
"Haha, there are only 200,000 people. General Li is powerful and brave!"
Ying Zheng smiled heartily, and from the corner of his eyes he looked at Wang Jian intentionally.
Wang Jian's eyes were taken back from Li Xin, and a hint of dimness flashed in his eyes. However, Wang Jian, who had always been cautious, did not stand up and refute anything, but was silent and did not speak.
"I give General Li 200,000 troops, can I really destroy the State of Chu?"
Li Xin said that there were only 200,000 troops, but Ying Zheng was not serious enough to not even give him 200,000 troops.
At this time, Li Xin became the focus of the hall. Whether it was a civil servant or a military general, his eyes fell on Li Xin.
Regardless of whether Li Xin can destroy the State of Chu, this confident momentum alone is very infectious.
Most of the monarchs and ministers of Qin did not think that Chu was of any power. Since King Huai of Chu, the war between Chu and other Warring States periods has been a complete failure.
Now, Qin State has taken the initiative to attack the Three Jins and went south to attack Chu, but it is still easy to capture it.
The young and strong generals in the Qin army especially appreciated Li Xin's performance. What's the point of crushing their opponents with huge advantages like Wang Jian?
"Since I joined the army, I have been practicing cycling and cavalry tactics. In the battle of defeating Yan, the two Qin and Yan armies fought on the banks of the Yishui River. I took advantage of the unstable formation of the Yan army and led the cycling and cavalry troops to rush and fight hard, and pursued them decisively, without giving the Yan army a chance to breathe."
When Li Xin recalled the battle against Yan, he secretly looked at Wang Jian. However, Wang Jian ignored Li Xin's gaze and had no reaction at all.
"The combat effectiveness of the Chu army is stronger than that of the Yan army, but weaker than that of the Zhao army. After I lead the army into Chu, I will definitely find an opportunity to fight the Chu army to decisively, use the impact of the cavalry troops to defeat the Chu army and continue to pursue it. The Chu army has no possibility of reassembling......"
The core of Li Xin's tactics was based on the Qin cavalry's rushing forward and defeating the Chu army, and then rushed forward like lightning, cutting into the mainland of Chu, without giving the Chu people the opportunity to form a new defense line.
It sounds quite blitzing.
"However, if the 200,000 Qin troops destroy Chu, I need to ask the king for one."
Li Xin's live deduction made Ying Zheng very satisfied. He struck while the iron was hot, and Li Xin began to make requests.
"Oh, General Li, who do you need to ask for?"
When Ying Zheng said this, the ministers were shocked. The implicit meaning of Ying Zheng seemed to have agreed to Li Xin's position as the chief general.
"I need to ask the king for General Zhongmeng."
······
"Young master created Li Xin, and Meng Tian was familiar with military affairs. He was very brave and powerful. He was more powerful and powerful than our Qin State. He ordered his army to lead 200,000 to defeat Chu. I hope to send good news early to calm my heart..."
"Great send to the king!"
When the court concluded, almost noon, the hot sunlight hit the ground, and the air was filled with heat.
July and August of the year are the hot weather.
"Meng Tian, I don't think you have any joy on your face. Do you want to be my deputy general?"
After Ying Zheng left, Li Xin quickly moved to Meng Tian with a look of confusion.
When Meng Tian was a child, Li Xin once taught Meng Tian and Ying Zheng to practice swordsmanship and conquered Zhao State. The two of them cooperated well. But when Li Xin was specially appointed, Li Xin found that Meng Tian seemed to have no response.
"Where is there only 200,000 people, isn't it a little short?"
Meng Tian came to his senses and shook his head repeatedly. Li Xin's military consciousness was relatively pure, and Meng Tian was very happy to deal with Li Xin.
Meng Tian felt pressured to be with an old fox like Wang Jian.
"There are quite a few 200,000 people and horses. I am very optimistic about the cavalry under your command."
Li Xin smiled confidently, patted Meng Tian’s shoulder hard, and quietly lowered his voice: “As long as we fight this battle, it will be a great contribution…………”
Li Xin said nothing and pulled Meng Tian out of the hall, as if the two of them were going to make a careful decision.
Strategically despise the enemy and tactical attention to the opponent.
Li Xin may not have heard of this sentence, but he is not a brave and unscrupulous man. When he was stationed in Nanjun, Li Xin had already begun to collect information from Chu.
"Father, let's go back too."
Wang Ben slowly started to do it, walked to Wang Jian, stretched out his hands, and wanted to support Wang Jian.
"Yes, it's time to go back."
Seeing that it was Wang Ben, Wang Jian sighed secretly, but did not reject his son's filial piety.
"Father, can Li Xin win?"
After leaving the court gate, Wang Ben couldn't help it and asked.
Wang Jian turned around and looked around and saw that there was no one around. After the court discussion, the ministers went home, and those who were fine came out of Xianyang Palace one after another.
"Li Xin will definitely lose."
Wang Jian shook his head gently, smiled bitterly, and ordered Wang Ben, "Ben'er, I plan to go back to Pinyang for rest. If you stay in Xianyang, you must remember your instructions for your father, and you must be low-key."
"Dad wants to go back to Pinyang?"
This time, even Wang Ben was shocked.
Wang Jian was from Dongxiang, Pinyang, where there was the ancestral temple of the Wang family. Wang Jian returned to Pinyang to rest, which was almost like returning military power, and from then on, he meant to be a prank.
"I have been fighting outside for many years for my father, and my grandson at home has not had time to teach me well. You have always had a stern face and don't dare to get close to you, so how can you teach him?"
At this moment, Wang Ben realized that Wang Jian was indeed a little old.
Yes, in ancient society, people who were nearly sixty years old were already considered long-lived. Wang Jian, who was nearly sixty years old, fought for a lifetime and destroyed Zhao and Yan, and was full of honor. At this time, he returned to Lao Pinyang and would inevitably leave a good story.
A few days later, Meng Tian was changing his son Meng Wuji's diapers.
At this time, there were no diapers like those in later generations, and Meng Tian didn't remember how to invent them. But the wisdom of the ancients should not be underestimated.
A small cloth bag is sewn tightly and evenly filled with wood ash inside. It can be used as a diaper and as a sanitary napkin.
"Son, you have a lot of urine, you have to change it three times a day."
Meng Tian skillfully took off the diapers made of wood ash and replaced them with a new one, making her mouth full of fun.
"Hmph, I remember when you changed your diapers for the first time, why did you look reluctant?"
Ying Yan leaned against the door, put her hands on her waist, and kept twisting her body.
After giving birth, Ying Yan's figure was a little distorted and she is now in the recovery period.
"Hehe, it's the first time I'm a father..."
After changing into the diapers, Meng Tian gently hugged Meng Wuji, looking at the tender baby's skin, hoping to be with his wife and children for a long time.
After Ying Zheng appointed Li Xin as the chief general to attack Chu, the war machine of Qin had already begun to operate. After the autumn harvest, Meng Tian had to rush to the front line again, and this time his opponent was quite difficult to chew.
Meng Tian received news that the current Shangzhu Kingdom of Chu was Xiang Yan, the leader of the Xiang clan who defeated Lu.
"General, this is a new letter."
Finally, Meng Wuji'an fell asleep, and a slight knock sounded in the small hole in the courtyard wall to the west. Meng Tian opened the small window on the wall, and Meng Hu handed over a bamboo slip.
"What news has been received?"
After training, Ying Yan put down the copper sword in her hand, sweating profusely, and looked at a piece of poplar and bamboo slips in Meng Tian’s hand.
Meng Tian raised his hand and the bamboo slip flew towards Ying Yan. This was not a top secret news.
"General Wang wrote a letter to thank him for his illness and went back to Pinyang..."
