The Qin army captured Xinyang, continued south along the Yingshui River, captured Taihe, and looked at Ruyin from afar.

After occupying Taihe, Meng Tian did not rashly advance south, but instead stationed the main force, and only sent light cavalry scouts to confront the Chu army.

"Xiang Yan retreated, and now the vassal king of Sishui County has come to surrender. Perhaps in just one year, the king will be able to enter Shouying, kill Fu Chu in his hand, and avenge his parents."

In Taihe City, in a simple house in the middle, King Mi Tong of Chu was chewing maltose in his mouth and was listening to the report of his subordinates.

"Oh, I understand." Mi Tong replied vaguely, "This candy is so sweet, I still have to eat it."

The palace maid who served beside her quickly lowered her body and presented the pottery in her hand with white and tender maltose lying inside.

"General Meng captured Xinyang and captured many Chu troops. The leading military Hou Dou and Xi were willing to abandon the darkness and turn to the light and be loyal to the king. The king can promote them."

Zeng Min suppressed the impatientness in her heart, held the jade scepter in her hand and bowed.

"These two people are still suspected of assassinating General Meng. General Meng has the measure and has not been held accountable for their crimes. The king randomly gave them an official position and should not be too close to them."

On the other side, Sue Yue said and reminded him.

"Ling Yin, Zhu Guo said what to do, I will do what I should do."

Mi Tong nodded only cares about his head and couldn't understand what the two were talking about.

After the old eunuch who raised him died, the people around him coaxed him to play, but no one taught him carefully. How could the same child know much?

Zeng Min, Sui Yue respectfully in front of Mi Tong, was Meng Tian's order, and he had to maintain the presence of King Chu on the surface.

The vassal of Chu State's vassalized throughout the country cannot rule out some naive people who really think that Meng Tian has the sincerity to re-establish the King of Chu. If they saw no one taking Mi Tong seriously, they might throw themselves into Xiang Yan's arms and cause enough trouble for the Qin army.

After Mi Tong had enough food and drink, Zeng Min and Sui Yue led him to the front yard to receive the newly surrendered Junhou Dou and Xi.

Following Zeng Min and Sui Yue's instructions, Mi Tong gave the two Sima the position. In this way, the two men went from small military marquis to the sky and became important officials in the court, and they couldn't help but feel happy.

"Two Simas, since you two have defected to the king and have not made any achievements, you will become Simas. I don't know how many people are scrupulous."

After Mi Tong left, Zeng Min asked Dou and Xi to sit down, "Queen, you two have to fight with all your heart and serve the king."

As he said that, Zeng Min raised his hands high and bowed far away to the direction where Mi Tong left.

Dou and Xi must have done the same action.

Zeng Min's serious attitude made the two of them have an illusion that the little King of Chu who was just in front of them was really like the real King of Chu.

"At present, there is no general under the command of the king who can command the army to fight. In order to completely defeat Xiang Yan and overthrow Fu Chu, you and the two of you will lead your troops and follow the orders under General Meng's tent."

Sui Yue closed his sleeves and when his right hand was unfolding again, he had two more golden tiger talismans in his hand.

Although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs. Mi Tong's small court made everything look good.

"The last general will receive the order!"

Dou and Xi took over the tiger talisman and felt relieved. Without Mi Tong's flag, they always felt very awkward to lead their troops to attack Chu.

Now that they have the tiger talisman in front of them, they can excuse themselves openly.

Meng Tian’s command post is not far from Mi Tong’s house. Sima Dou left and Sima Xi on the right left and Sima Xi left Mi Tong’s house, turned right across a street intersection, and arrived at Meng Tian’s house.

"We are here to report to General Meng at the order of the king!"

After checking the identity talisman, the two of them crossed three checkpoints under the guidance of their personal soldiers and came to the lobby of the house.

The lobby is one meter wide and three meter long, which is much spacious compared to the tents in the army.

In the center of the lobby, a rectangular sand table was lying quietly in the place, facing everyone.

"Congratulations to the two for their promotion, successful appointment as Sima, and in the court."

Seeing the two of them walking in, Meng Tian, ​​who was sitting in the main seat, reached out and ordered them to sit in the front row of the left head.

"I dare not!"

Facing the gaze of the Qin generals, the two of them were patrolling and did not dare to approach.

They were prisoners of the Qin army and thought they were not qualified to be on par with the Qin people.

"The two Simas are joking, what are you going to dare to do?" Meng Tian glanced over and signaled to the Qin generals in the seat, not to be rude.

"I was invited by the King of Chu to command the Qin and Chu coalition forces and attack the pseudo Chu king Fu Chu. You two are under the command of the King of Chu and the generals of the coalition forces. We still need to work together. After all, Xiang Yan is still blocking Ruyin."

There is some inferiority in the hearts of surrendered generals. If you want them to serve, you need to make them feel valued and then let them see a bright future.

Meng Tian said this, Dou and Xi didn't dare to refuse anymore, so he had to sit down.

But a warm feeling arose in the hearts of the two of them. When they were among the Chu army, they had never enjoyed such treatment.

Among the Chu army, bloodline and origin are the most important. If they do not have aristocratic bloodline, they can only become a lieutenant. No matter how they sacrifice their lives and shed their blood, they will not be able to earn a hereditary title.

The Chu State was too vassalized by the king, and there were many bloodlines left by the royal family, and there were no extra resources to reward the Chu people who were not born.

After sighing, the two of them calmed down and looked at the sand table in front of them carefully after they sat down.

The sand table is not big, the size of a bamboo mat, with mountains, rivers, cities and troops distributed at a glance.

What you see is the eye-catching Shouying, with a large yellow flag standing on it.

His eyes followed Shouying and along Yingshui, and he arrived at the land of Ruyin.

As long as you break through Ruyin, the northern gate of Shouying will suddenly open. The Qin army will follow the Yingshui south and reach the city of Shouying within one day.

Has the Qin people developed to such a level of geoscience?

Staying in the army for many years, when Dou and Xi saw this strange sand table, they quickly understood the convenience of marching and fighting.

I remember when I first joined the army, I was thinking about the terrain on the wooden board for half a year before I could figure out the trick.

Even people with no military experience can see the sand table set up by the Qin army at a glance.

He and the other two were not surprised.

The last time, when he followed Yang Youge into Meng Tian’s army's tent, the sand table was also in the camp, but there was a layer of cloth covering it, and the two of them did not see the true face of the sand table.

"General, Xiang Yan was defeated, Li Bi and Luo Jia led the cavalry and harassed the Chu army. The Chu army suffered heavy losses. Why didn't our army go south to Ruyin as soon as possible and pounce on the capital of Chu Shouying?"

After everyone arrived, Meng Bao sent someone to guard them. Zhang Tuo could no longer hold back and raised the question in his heart.
