"Li Chao did not lead the army to guard Changping according to my order."

Meng Tian raised his hand and threw the bamboo slips in his hand on Jing Su's hand.

Changping here is not Changping in the Battle of Changping in Qin and Zhao, but a small town in the northwest rear of Chen Ying.

"Li Chao led his army to Zhoukou and moved forward rashly. Xiang Yan would not miss this opportunity."

Jing Su was shocked and suddenly felt something was wrong.

Xiang Yan's 400,000 army lost its spirit and its combat power still existed. There was absolutely no problem dealing with Li Chao's 50,000 people.

"The 50,000 troops from Lantian Camp have not been baptized by war, and are not as good as the tried and tested Chu army."

Meng Tian sighed secretly. He didn't expect Li Chao to be so radical. Although a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger, in Meng Tian's opinion, he seemed a little reckless.

"I think now that Li Chao has led his army to Zhoukou, our army has to launch a counterattack in advance."

Meng Tian bent down and looked at the sand table in the command post carefully, knocking on his fingers from time to time, pondering endlessly.

Li Chao's 50,000 new forces were a powerful supplement to the Qin army on the front line. Meng Tian could not watch the reinforcements fall into the siege of the Chu army.

"General, but Li Bi's light cavalry is still on the periphery, and no news has been heard back."

Jing Su pointed at Xiang County, Nandun area, showing worries.

The cavalry led by Li Bi are currently active in this area. Xiang Liang led the army to encircle and suppress the suspicious figures, Jing Su's dark eagle, temporarily lost contact with Li Bi.

"No need to wait for Li Bi to come back. I believe he can deal with Xiang Liang."

Li Bi stayed with Meng Tian for many years. In terms of the use of cavalry tactics, Xiang Liang, who grew up in the south, should not be as good as Li Bi, who had been to the northern grasslands.

In the south, after years of wars during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the country consumed a lot of war horses. Now the number of war horses in Chu is far inferior to that of Qin and Zhao in the north.

The State of Chu never produced a general who was good at using cavalry on a large scale. Later, Xiang Yu was considered a tactical genius, but it was still a matter of whether he was born at this time.

"Tomorrow, the vanguard of the army will be adopted by the vanguard of the school Zhang Tuo and Huang Ji, and will be prepared to attack the Chu army camp."

Meng Tian's eyes fell tightly at the Chu army camp, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The Chu army has been arrogant in Chenying City for so long, and now it is the Chu people who have tried the Qin army's blade.

After Li Xin's death, Meng Tian held Chen Ying and refused to leave. The Qin army survived the short-term shock and quickly came to his senses. As time passed, the Qin army's fighting spirit became more and more high, and many people asked for battle and were willing to go out of the city to fight to the death with the Chu army.

When Wang Jian conquered the Chu State, he pretended to be a grandson, stabilized his own defense line, and inspired morale. He only launched a scattered attack when the Chu army was tired.

Meng Tian’s hands were not as good as Wang Jian’s troops, so he might not be able to annihilate the Chu army in one fell swoop, but there should be no problem in defeating the Chu army and expelling it from Chen County.

The Chu army collected food in Chen County. The residents of Chen County who had been eager to return to Chu State suddenly discovered that the fellow villagers from Chu were not as beautiful as they imagined.

The promised fellow villagers were crying when they met the fellow villagers. The eyes of the Chen County people were indeed crying because the food rations at home became the military rations for the Chu army.

The autumn wind is getting stronger every day, and the chill in the air gradually becomes solid. Without winter food, people in Chen County can think of the difficult days still coming later.

Facing the hungry parents and wives, the object of resentment among the people of Chen County was no longer the Qin officials who guided them to farm the fields with a stern face, but the Chu army who took away their last bit of food.

Because of their resentment towards the Chu army, the people of Chen County quickly forgot that they once hated the strict Qin rules with great resentment, but instead unconsciously recalled the benefits of Qin.

Qin's laws are indeed stricter than Chu's laws, but if officials violate the law, they will be dealt with. Today, Qin King seems to be more strict with officials who violate Qin's laws.

The Qin officials wearing black clothes and bronze seals were inspecting everywhere. They asked how deep the soil was digging, how much food was sprinkled, and chatting, which was really annoying. Looking back now, the thirty years of Qin ruled Chen County, the food was guaranteed every year, and no famine occurred.

The change in the hearts of Chen County was continuously transmitted back to Chen Ying's camp through the dark eagle sent by Meng Tian.

After this battle, Chen County was completely included in the Qin State.

"Let me compete with this senior Xiang Yan in a real way!"

Meng Tian stood on the watchtower in the East City, overlooking the Chu army camp ten miles outside the city, and was a little curious about how Xiang Yan would look like.

I have heard of Xiang Yan's name for a long time. The two armies have fought for so long, and the chief generals of the two armies have never officially met.

After the Hexi Battle between Shang Yang and Gongzi Zuo ended, the meeting in front of the formation soon became history.

"Doctorson, how are the batch of trenchers I asked you to make now?"

Meng Tian looked at the strong Chu army camp and kept thinking in his heart.

"Return to General, one hundred aircraft have been completed now."

Doctor Sen stood behind Meng Tian and bowed his hand to answer with a respectful attitude.

Dafu Sen was born in the Xianyang Iron Office and liked to tinker with fresh things, which was not popular with his superiors. After following Meng Tian, ​​he developed a sharp iron weapon ring-headed knife and successfully won the title.

Craftsmen in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period had no social status. During the Spring and Autumn Period, craftsmen, as slaves and nobles, gave gifts to each other privately, and never considered the idea of ​​craftsmen.

The customs of Qin State were somewhat different from those of the Central Plains, and the treatment of craftsmen was better than that of the Central Plains countries. Even so, it was still difficult for craftsmen in Qin State to obtain titles than they could reach the sky.

When Meng Tian was leading the army, he set up a separate baggage battalion to vigorously improve the treatment of craftsmen. As long as the equipment made by craftsmen is conducive to combat, Meng Tian will also be included in the military merit assessment to ask for merit from Xianyang for the craftsmen.

Sen's current title is just a mere doctor, and it cannot be considered high, but compared to his colleagues who stayed in the Iron Office, Sen's title of doctor is already outstanding.

It is precisely because of this that when Meng Tian wrote a letter to ask Sen to go to Chen County, he would leave Shang County without hesitation and join the Chen Ying battlefield.

Follow Meng Tian, ​​build equipment and win, and don’t worry about not having military achievements.

When I arrived at Chen Ying, I saw Meng Tian draw the style of a stone caster with my own eyes. The forest, who had been immersed in crafts for a long time, was stunned.

Is there really a person who is born to know this in this world?

The stone-tower tool that the seven heroes of the Warring States Period moved to the battlefield was said to have been invented by Lu Ban. When casting, several people needed to work together to pull the throwing rod and throw the stone bullet.

Such a stone casting tool not only consumes manpower, but also has no accurate lead. Multiple people work together to pull the casting rod, which cannot guarantee that the same force will be used every time. Because of this, during the Warring States Period, the stone casting tool can only scare people. Experienced soldiers will not be afraid of stone bullets like headless flies.

The batch of catapults made by Meng Tian directed Sen to adopt a simple torque design, saving the trouble of manpower pulling.

"One hundred aircraft, some are small, but enough."

Meng Tian carefully looked at the position among the two armies and slapped the pillar in front of him with a palm, full of expectations for the battle tomorrow morning.

"Let the Chu army verify what kind of results will be achieved if the stone catapults that do not require human power to be pulled on the battlefield..."
