According to Li Xin's plan, Meng Tian should lead his army to attack Weixian, and then attack Ruyin in the east, leading the Chu army to come for a decisive battle.

Meng Tian led his army south to Guling, detoured by Chen Ying, and made an stance to march towards Wei County, which could not be considered a violation of Li Xin's order.

The Chen County was included in the Qin State for less than 30 years, but this place was originally a place where the capital of the Chu State was important, and the road system was originally perfect than other places.

During the 30 years of Qin's rule, local corvee service was organized to level the roads and build water conservancy, which was effective. Today, Chen County, like Nan County, has become two forward bases for Qin to attack Chu.

"The scout troops need to be released a hundred miles away, and they must not let go of any slight disturbance!"

Meng Tian rode on a horse, walked in the central army, and deployed the orders to march.

"Order Li Bi to lead the light cavalry and go south first!"

"Huang Ji led his army to the front!"

"Menghu cuts off the rear!"

During the military discussion, Meng Tian privately talked to Huang Ji, and found that there was a faint shadow of military strategists in Huang Ji's conversation.

After asking more details, it turned out that Huang Ji had found a volume of "The Art of War" in Weiqiu, Wei State. He studied it carefully and combined it with practical experience, and gained a lot.

"The Art of War in Fenghou" is said to be written by Huangdi and his great general Fenghou. It can be said to be the oldest military tactic in China. After reading it, Meng Tian thought it was not the case.

Many military tactics that were circulated in this era, and writers can give a long-standing figure like Huangdi and Jiang Taigong, most of them just to borrow the reputation of these people. The real writers are later generations who have studied military tactics carefully.

Huang Ji understood military tactics and had rich practical experience, so Meng Tian asked Huang Ji to lead the army as the arrow for the entire army.

Meng Hu served as Meng Tian's personal military commander for many years. He was cautious and focused, and his cooking and logistics were organized. In just a short period of time, Meng Hu still needed to be familiar with military affairs, so that it would be more appropriate for him to break the back.

Zhong Chi, Meng Xue, Hu Duo, Xishuang and others inherited their ancestral titles and led their troops to conquer the Wei Kingdom with Wang Ben, the Wei Kingdom had already been at dusk at sunset and was isolated and helpless.

The Qin army attacked Daliang by water, and most of the time followed the water to attack Zheng State to build channels without experiencing fierce wars. Zhong Chi and others took advantage of the situation to gain the credit for participating in the battle to destroy the country.

The actual combat effectiveness of Zhong Chi and others remains to be tested, so they can walk in the middle to avoid making any tricks.

If you want to be a deserter, let alone Qin Lu severely punishes the runawayer, Meng Hu, who was cut off the rear, will be killed on the spot without hesitation after encountering it.

If a person exceeds a thousand, it is dense; if a person exceeds a thousand, it is boundless.

Marching and fighting are the most tests of the commander's ability to coordinate and mobilize. Meng Tian once served as a county lieutenant in Shangjun and commanded the county soldiers in the county, with a total of about 100,000 people.

After having such an experience, Meng Tian is now commanding a real 100,000 army, so he does not seem to be in a hurry or unable to meet his strength.

Commanding an army of hundreds of thousands has never been an easy task. The storm and the enemy was destroyed by chatting and laughing. The imaginations that have been passed down in later generations have always covered up the long-lasting and night-long generals in the battlefield.

The autumn is clear and the breeze is whispering, and the heat on the ground is dissipating, and the soldiers are much faster when they march.

When it was evening, Meng Tian calculated that the Qin army marched more than a hundred miles a day, and most of the Qin soldiers could meet this requirement.

At this time, one mile was only more than four hundred meters, and the march was only about fifty miles away in later generations.

"General, Meng Hu heard from the rear army that only more than a thousand people were left behind today, and he had already taken shelter."

After the evening meal, the lights came on, Meng Bao settled his own military camp and came to report to Meng Tian.

"It's just that the general asked the soldiers to have a lunch, but the logistics task was much heavier."

During the Warring States Period, there was insufficient food. Ordinary Guizhou leaders in various countries could only eat two meals a day, namely morning food and evening food. Only noble families would have extra meals when they were hungry at noon.

In the army, the Qin army attaches importance to titles, and enjoys different meals for different titles. Ordinary soldiers, two meals a day, are good enough to eat enough.

"Three meals a day are related to the soldiers' physical strength and should not be ambiguous."

Meng Tian took the bamboo slips passed by the various troops and solemnly explained: "On the battlefield, physical strength is combat effectiveness. How can soldiers fight if they are not full?"

Meng Tian did not cancel the preferential treatment for those who have been accused of having a jue, but ordered one meal a day.

It is precisely because of the three meals a day that the soldiers' physical strength is obviously much better than before.

"But you have to consume 5,000 stones of extra grain every day."

Meng Bao had a bitter face, so they had to be shameless and wanted food from Xin Sheng.

"The logistics matters are under the responsibility of General Xin, and our army just needs to urge grain."

Looking at Meng Bao's bitter face, Meng Tian felt that it was really difficult for Meng Bao to manage the logistics and general affairs of the Central Military Camp.

"When Wei State was still alive, it was more than enough for 200,000 troops and horses. Now, the old general Xin guarded the Wei land, and part of the grain was transferred from Guanzhong. The remaining grain was collected in Wei land, and feeding the 100,000 troops should be no problem."

The Qin army conquered the world. Although the main troops came from Guanzhong, the food and resources were still borne by Guanzhong. Even if Guanzhong built another Zheng Guo Canal, it would not be able to bear it.

According to military tactics, wise generals must eat from the enemy and collect and use food and supplies from the occupied land to support the war, so that they can become stronger and stronger when fighting.

After pacifying the Wei territory, the old land of the Wei army was disbanded. Since the Wei territory was no longer supported by the Wei army, of course, it cannot be wasted.

After receiving the order from Xianyang, Xin Sheng's work to collect grain from Wei has already begun.

Meng Tian knew that Xin Sheng had food in his hand, but he just wanted Xin Sheng to transport more food to the front line.

"Where is Li Bi now?"

Meng Tian no longer worried about food. Besides, he did not put all his hope on Xin Sheng.

"The scout came to the news that Li Bi has arrived in Guling now."

Meng Bao approached and pointed at the location of Guling on the map.

Meng Hu was released to lead the troops, Meng Bao felt very envious. In the past, he didn't like to study maps, but now he is the only personal commander, so he has to start companionship with the map. Deep in his heart, Meng Bao has never forgotten. Meng Tian once said that when he stopped fighting, Meng Bao would recommend Meng Bao to manage a large county.

Fifty miles west of Guling is Chen Ying.

"Tell Li Bi that he will station in Guling and wait for the army to join."

Guling City is sturdy, close to the gap, easy to transport, and is suitable for large army garrisons.

In the later Chu-Han War, Liu Bang led his army to pursue Xiang Yu, but was defeated by Xiang Yu, which stabilized the defense line in Guling.

Meng Tian marched all the way, adhering to the essence of Wu's military strategy, and going out was like seeing the enemy. The scouts investigated the land of Chen County, without the shadow of the Chu army. It seemed that Xiang Yan was trying to lure the enemy into the depths.

Chen County was still controlled by Qin. As long as Chen Ying was not in chaos and Chen Ying was not lost, Meng Tian would have guaranteed that the Qin army would be invincible.
