When it was reported that Dr. Jin Bi's troops were arriving, Lord Xinling and Si Mang, who were working in the left camp, hurried back in their cars. When they entered the city gate, Si Mang shouted: "General, enter the city!" The soldiers guarding the city recognized Si Mang.

The voice did not stop them, they rushed straight into the city, and stopped suddenly in front of the Huayang Wei Mansion. The two jumped out of the car, and there were already diners coming to greet them. A few people took the car over, and the remaining people accompanied them inside.

Let's go. Zhang Noi said as he walked: "The doctor said that the front army fought hard and suffered many casualties. I would like to mobilize the soldiers of the central army to go forward."

Lord Xinling said: "It is not dangerous to change the formation when facing the enemy!"

Zhang He said: "Therefore, the doctor ordered all the generals to go to the central army to discuss."

Lord Xinling asked: "Where is the military envoy?"

Zhang He then said: "Send the message to the military envoy."

The diners who heard this shouted together: "Send the army to the army~! Send the army to the army~!"

The military envoy who was resting by the gate of the mansion hurriedly came out and turned around to see the screen wall. Lord Xinling and his entourage had already gathered below the steps. After the military envoy saluted, Lord Xinling said, "What do you say, sir?"

The military envoy said: "The front army fought hard and lost many people. I hope all the troops will go to the central army to discuss matters!"

Lord Xinling said: "Greetings! Where is the doctor now?"

The military envoy said: "Before departure, we will inspect the camp in front of the army."

Lord Xinling said, "I'll go there soon." The military envoy saluted and left.

Lord Xinling said: "Would you rather have him?"

Si Mang said: "You will know when you go to the Central Army!"

Lord Xinling said: "I want to invite the three divisions to go together, is that okay?"

Si Mang said: "Every army is discussing matters, and the camp commander can't predict anything. But I can follow him."

Lord Xinling said: "I would like the three ministers to be my disciples and come with them to discuss matters."

Si Mang said: "How dare you look at this!"

Lord Xinling said: "What is discussed this night must be of great importance. If there is no help from the three departments, there may be difficulties. Please don't say goodbye!"

Zhang He also said: "If you are in a hurry, follow the authority, if you are willing, don't give up!" He called for Si Sheng from the left camp and Sikong from the right camp to enter the city.

The three leather chariots are also ready. This departure is more formal, so all three chariots are equipped with drivers. In fact, only six people are going. Except for Lord Xinling and Sansi, the only followers who are actually following are Zhang Yue and Zhong Yue.

Simang transferred thirty soldiers from the central camp to protect him, while Zhong Yue arranged for another thirty retainers to accompany him on horseback.

By the time the three men arrived in front of the Chinese army's tent, the main generals of the Chinese army had already arrived. They also brought with them their left and right assistants, military commanders, and capable retainers or retainers.

Mr. Xiaojian set up a simple sand table in front of the tent using mounds of earth, earth pits, wooden sticks, stones and other objects. All the officers were in the tent. The sand table was guarded by military soldiers, and no one else could get close to it.

Seeing Lord Xinling waiting to arrive, the camp commander who personally went to the camp gate to guard the camp directly ordered someone to take over the carriage and lead the nine people into the tent. Only after entering the tent did he realize that the people brought by Lord Xinling were not many, and the other two

Each person has more than a dozen followers.

After seeing the ceremony, although Lord Xinling led the rear army, he still had the status of a general. He sat in the middle with Jin Bi. The two generals in the front and middle were arranged on the left and right, which was symmetrical. It was just different from the huge staff group of the generals.

In comparison, Doctor Jin Bi's entourage looked very shabby, with only Xiao Jian alone. When Jin Bi came out with Lord Xinling, he didn't bring a single retainer with him, so Xiao Jian borrowed it from Mang Mao.

Jin Bi did not say any more nonsense and went directly to the topic: "Let the former general briefly describe today's battle."

Xiao Jian came out and said: "Generals, please go outside the tent to join us!" He invited all the officers and staff to the prepared sand table.

The former military general was always by Jin Bi's side, so naturally he couldn't say anything, and the left and right Pian Pi did not come forward. Instead, a retainer came to explain on his behalf. The retainers and retainers can be clearly distinguished in terms of clothing: retainers can dress freely, and retainers can dress freely.

You need to wear a uniform "house uniform" outside.

This retainer seemed to have been well prepared, leading several retainers and retainers to take their places in front of the sand table. The speaker was responsible for dictating, while the others used stones to illustrate the actions of both parties on the sand table, so that all participants could see clearly, including the three ministers.

Inside, Lord Xinling and his party all felt that they had gained a lot.

"The Qin people used four o'clock as their second attack. The old soldiers in the division were tired and had no choice but to retreat." The speaker finally concluded.

Doctor Jin Bi said: "Why do you have any doubts?"

Several people raised some detailed questions. Naturally, they were all followers. The chief officials usually could only sit and talk and knew nothing about these technical issues. The speaker also patiently answered them one by one. It was very obvious that the speaker had a deep understanding of Japan.

He has a thorough understanding of the course of the war.

At this time, the front army general said: "Our army has been fighting hard all day, and it is exhausted. Qin Jing can't defeat it, and he will fight with twice the force in the future. If the tired army is used as twice the force, it will be defeated. I hope you have mercy on me.

Of."

The general of the Chinese army also spoke: "There will be a big battle in the coming days. Even though we claim to be completely victorious, we all know that there is no actual fighting. How can we be so exhausted?"

The former general said: "Hey! What's the point? The two armies clashed, arrows were like rain, and the sharp blades were at each other's throats. How could it be said that there was no fighting?"

Lord Xinling said: "Changing formations when facing the enemy is a taboo for military strategists, so the general should encourage him!"

The former general said: "Your Majesty is aware of it. I came out of Daliang and the whole army rushed forward. It has been more than ten days. It has been day and night, and the food and fodder has not been kept. In the daytime battle, our army was exhausted and the enemy was strong. Qin.

The Qin people re-entered and were defeated again. Anyone with eyes can see this. All the soldiers left the army with the ministers, and they could not have a full day or a sleep at night. Although they were defeated by Xingyang, they were frustrated and became brave. However, those who work hard will benefit from hard work. This is

How can we use military methods?"

When everyone saw that the former general dared to contradict even Lord Xinling, and spoke so sadly, as if he had been greatly wronged, they all fell silent.

Mr. Zhong Yue, who was behind Mr. Xinling, came out and said, "The general said that the front troops are not allowed to have enough to eat, but they are humble and do camp duties, but I don't understand. Would you rather provide relief?"

The former general said: "I led the troops out of the battle, and each of the soldiers carried ten days' worth of food. It was unlucky to set out, and I was defeated by Xingyang's servants. I have been here for ten days. I have been lying on the ground and pillowed on the rocks, and the warnings have been sent day and night. This is the time."

, the whole army had to carry only small grains with them, how could there be food and fodder for support? When the army arrived in Huayang, I was the vanguard, the farthest from the city, but the chariots were not prepared and the grain was not transported in time. The civilian army was very large, and there were more than the middle and rear.

Even the equal share is still unprepared, but worse than that!"

Lord Xinling heard this and said: "The former army's failure to sustain food and crops is the fault of being alone. Now I am willing to make up for it with actual results to atone for its mistakes. After the discussion, I will work with the officials and gentlemen to relieve the general's worries. General, please forgive me!"

Lord Xinling took over all the responsibilities and expressed his willingness to solve the problem. The former military general had no choice but to accept the situation and said: "The Lord is so kind, and I am so grateful that I dare not not do the hard work of the dog and horse."

Lord Xinling said: "The front army fought hard for the whole day, but the Qin people could not advance even an inch. The generals and officials were able to command the troops well and defended them well. We have reported to Daliang, and the king's order is coming soon."

The former general and Jin Bi thanked each other and said, "How can I meritorious service for inheriting King Hongfu?"

After taking care of the former general who disrupted the situation, the rest became easier. Jin Bi took the initiative and proposed that the former army be tired during the day, and the whole army's security would be left to the Chinese army to send people to complete, and the former army would only be responsible for the security of its own camp.

The task was to organize the civilian army to quickly repair the trenches and fortifications that were damaged during the daytime battle without slacking off. As expected, all tasks still fell on the front army.

The meeting didn't end until about midnight. Lord Xinling went directly to the former general, rewarded him for his heroic battle during the day, asked him what he needed support for, and decided to go with him to the former army to solve specific problems on the spot.

The entourage divided the work, and the Third Division returned to Huayang City to implement the meeting's decision--the retainers didn't understand it anyway. The retainers all followed Lord Xinling to inspect the front army. Wu died, and ten people returned to the city with the Third Division of the Guard.

, twenty people followed Mr. Wei Zhu to the front army. Knowing that Lord Xinling was going to the front army, Jin Bi was worried and wanted to go too. Lord Xinling originally wanted to invite the generals of the front army to ride with him, but when he saw that Jin Bi was going,

He had no choice but to invite Jin Bi to ride with him.

On the way, Lord Xinling asked in detail about the progress of the war during the day, and Jin Bi gave a very clear answer. This gave Lord Xinling a better understanding of the war. When asked about the battle tomorrow, Jin Bi said worriedly:

"During the day, the Qin people did not use all their strength. When our army attacked, the Qin people retreated immediately, which was not enough to provide a basis. Moreover, when the Qin people came, they only had one army. They were afraid that the enemy's army had not arrived yet and their strength was insufficient. If Qin used all its strength to force the enemy, things would be amiss.

It’s hard to predict.”

Lord Xinling said: "The people of Qin have not tried their best? I would like to hear the details."

Jin Bi said: "The enemy advanced in one group, crossed ditches and ridges, and was hit by arrows many times. Although there were no casualties, it greatly depressed morale. Although every battle must overcome the fortresses, and when approaching the camp, all our elite troops must be sent out.

Retreat. Retreat without chaos, in an orderly formation, and move calmly and leisurely. Take all the casualties with you. This is because they want to explore the way to defend me, but they have not tried their best."

Lord Xinling said: "Our army has not fought with all its strength, so what?"

Jin Bi said: "Of course! The enemy's formation is not in chaos and there is no opportunity to take advantage of it. If they engage in a hasty confrontation, they may be taken advantage of. Therefore, although they attack, they must maintain a tight formation and not be greedy for military success."

Lord Xinling said: "What the doctor said is true. If the Qin people fight with all their strength, what can they do?"

Jin Bi said: "It's just to increase your strength a little, but you won't dare to use your full strength."

Lord Xinling said: "How do you know this, sir? Outside Xingyang City, five thousand warriors were slaughtered in one fell swoop. Why didn't the Qin people punish them according to law?"

Jin Bi said: "The loss of Xingyang was unexpected. If the two armies were facing each other and were evenly matched, how could the Qin people dare to do this? It is not the case now. Our three armies are well organized and camped step by step to rescue each other. Although Qin wants to do its best, how can it be done?

As you wish!"

Lord Xinling said: "It's because of the doctor's plan."

Jin Bi said: "As soon as the battle begins, I'm afraid Qin will advance in two rows. The former will break our ditch and the latter will attack our elite troops. There will be killings in front of the formation."

Lord Xinling said: "He is working hard for me to relax, but he is outnumbered and we have a lot of people, so we should have the chance of victory."

Jin Bi said: "Fighting requires courage. The people of Qin are bloodthirsty and take beheading as merit. When it comes to wives, children, land, property, and order in the countryside. The people of Qin fight to be the first and are brave, even if they die, they will not retreat. This is beyond my reach."

Lord Xinling said: "I heard that Wu Zi's generals and soldiers are all dying without turning around. How can the soldiers be inferior to those of Qin?"

Jin Bi said: "Although the military soldiers are still there, Wu Zi has passed away! Will he die? Where is the person who sucks the sores?" He sighed with emotion.

Hearing this, Lord Xinling felt a little uneasy in his heart. He changed the subject and said, "Has the Daliang Army sent a message?"

Jin Bi said: "It has been sent. Does your Majesty have any more words?"

Lord Xinling said: "You can highly praise the achievements of the former army!"
