Chapter 47: Captive

The wings of a butterfly may cause hurricanes in the ocean in the distance. The sudden north wind blows towards the Chu army, mixed with autumn grass and dust, and the Chu army's formation fell into chaos.

Meng Tian seized the opportunity and decisively ordered the entire army to attack. The blood in his body could not be suppressed, so he wanted to fly on his horse and chase the enemy to chase the enemy.

"General, military law stipulates that the chief general is prohibited from charging into battle. You should stay in the military camp!" Gan Luo stopped Meng Tian and spoke to dissuade him.

"Yes, Qin Law stipulates that more than 500 generals are prohibited from beheading. Wu Ziyouyun, the generals only need to dispatch and command, and do not need to charge in person." Bu Xing also dissuaded.

Under the Qin military merit system, beheading merit is suitable for grassroots soldiers, and more than a hundred generals. If you want to be promoted, collective merit is calculated. A battle requires beheading 33 levels to meet the requirements for promotion. Generals with more than five hundred commanders mainly have the responsibility of command on the battlefield. When they go to battle rashly, they will easily lead to chaos in command after the general is killed.

At this time, the army was scarce and the training was not easy. Unlike later generations, backup officers were still lined up. Strictly speaking, the general was not afraid of death, and did not need the general to be in a dangerous situation. He only needed to command as he was determined, and the soldiers bravely fought and it was not difficult to achieve victory.

The master general in the book only makes the soldiers fight to the death, partly true and partly out of the imagination of literati. As early as the early days of the Warring States Period, Wu Qi abandoned this tactic of requiring the master general to take the lead in charging into battle.

"Thanks to your reminder, Meng Tian is Meng Lang!"

Meng Tian immediately realized that he was leading the army for the first time, and his blood was boiling, and he took it for granted that he needed to lead the way. In any era, ensuring the normal operation of the command organization is the top priority. The brainless practice of the general taking the lead in charge only exists in the imagination of literati and poets.

It seems that there is little chance to go to the battlefield in person in the future. Meng Tian felt a little regretful, suppressed the urge to ride a horse and chop, climbed the general's tower, and watched the battlefield situation.

Watching war scenes through the film and television screen is like illusion and reality compared to participating in it in an immersive way. Even if the war scenes in the film and television are very realistic, they will not cause any tremor that touches the soul. On the front line, the soldiers just follow the training movements and constantly harvest the lives of the enemy. In the eyes of the soldiers, the lost life seems to be not life, and there is no difference between killing a pig or a sheep.

Those who long for war and those who clamor for war all day are mostly trolls who don’t understand war.

The Chu army's army began to retreat, the Qin army began to chase and kill, and there was no doubt about the outcome of the war. The central army of the Chu army fell into chaos under the impact of Meng Hu and Meng Bao. Li Bi led the cavalry and followed him, mercilessly shooting and killing the soldiers who were in panic.

"Luo Jia, you should attack too!"

Luo Jia's cavalry abandoned the crossbow and replaced it with short and concise cavalry. In Meng Tian's plan, he would build a real impact cavalry based on Luo Jia's cavalry.

Blood stained the earth red, and the broken limbs and bones filled the entire battlefield. The Qin army recorded merits for beheading, but before the battle stopped, military law prohibited the soldiers from robbing people's heads. In the army, there were military judges responsible for beheading merits. This was originally the work of the military censor, but when Qi saw the Chu army coming in full force, he hid in the back camp and prepared to run away at any time, and the work of merit was on Ren Gu's head.

"General, our army has captured the chief general of the Chu army!"

Meng Bao came excitedly on a horse, carrying a middle-aged man in Chu's clothing, looking in his thirties, but at this time he looked extremely embarrassed.

"Are you sure this is the chief general of the Chu army?" No wonder Meng Tianxin had a question. The chief general of the army had to say that he had to look like a chief general, at least he had to wear armor. But the man in front of him had no armor on his body, but he looked like a scholar in later generations.

"Tell me, who are you? If I don't say I'll kill you!" The people in the army were always direct, Meng Bao was afraid that he would catch the wrong person, so he threw Li Yuan to the ground fiercely.

"Ouch!" Li Yuan called out. Although the languages ​​in Chu were different, the yoke still wanted to be consistent. "Don't kill me, I am Li Yuan. The mother of the current prince of Chu is my sister. She will pay for redeem me back."

The higher the status, the more he cherishes his life. Li Yuan is still one last step away from his plan to make Chu State, and he doesn't want to die here. At this moment, he hated Chunshen Jun to death. He knew that he would not fight, but sent him to lead the army. He must have wanted to cross the river and destroy the bridge and take the opportunity to go to him, an insider. If you are ruthless, don't blame me for being unrighteous. Chunshen Jun is a stumbling block in my plan. Li Yuan's mind is a long way to go, thinking about how to return to Chu State.

"Are you the chief general of the Chu army?"

"I am, but the specific command is directed by my own family member Li Xian." Speaking of this, Li Yuan felt very helpless. Who told him that his luxurious carriage was too conspicuous? Meng Hu and Meng Bao stared at him at first sight, but instead ignored Li Xian, who was inconspicuous but much more important.

Meng Bao had a gloomy face, and understood that they were inexperienced. Instead of asking carefully, she ran away from the deputy general of the Chu army.

Meng Tian did not blame Meng Bao and others, after all, experience requires time to settle. It is normal for the team that plays for the Champions League for the first time to make some mistakes.

"Tie him on the horse, reveal his face, and lead him to the battlefield for a walk."

"promise!"

Meng Bao immediately understood Meng Tian's plan. After a while, "Our army captured the chief general of the Chu army!" "The chief general of the Chu army was captured by our army!" The heroic shouts spread, and the Qin army became more powerful, and they were killed so hard that they even took off their armor and went up barely. The Chu army lost their courage and retreated one after another, throwing their armor and abandoning their armor. The defeated army had already been achieved. Even if Li Xian wanted to gather his troops, he was powerless and could only be carried away to the direction of Chu.

"Send the order to prohibit crossing the Qin-Chu border!"

War is the continuation of politics. When the generals of Qin fought, they started to go big and closed. Sometimes they only knew how to beheaded, but they forgot the strategic goal of the battle. Meng Tian knew in his heart that his direction was just to ensure the safety of Wang Jian's flanks, and it was impossible to easily trigger a war with Chu. The country of Chu, a sleeping lion of this era, should not stimulate it too much. After Chunshen Jun came to power, the national strength of Chu recovered very quickly. The battle between Qin and Chu still had to wait for the political situation of Chu to change.

"The key to the continued decline of Chu State falls on this Li Yuan!"

Meng Tian recalled Li Yuan’s information in his mind, but it was not very detailed. When he learned that Li Yuan had a sister who was the mother of the current crown prince of Chu, Meng Tian remembered that it was Li Yuan and his sister who jointly launched a palace coup that disrupted Chunshenjun’s policy deployment, and Chunshenjun even lost his life for it.

No matter how strong the fortress is, it has always been broken from the inside. If Chunshen Jun had been in power, I was afraid that Chu would not be so easy to deal with, but if Li Yuan was in power, it would be Zhao Gao of Chu! Later, the Chu people were dissatisfied with Li Yuan's control of the regime, and a coup occurred again. It was a mess. The more chaotic the enemy was, it was the opportunity for Qin. As a Qin man, Meng Tian would naturally consider Qin. Thinking of this, Meng Tian had an idea in his heart.

"Come here, send me a letter to General Wang!"
