General Qin

Li Shiqi, the envoy of the Qin State, and Ma Tianchong, the chief minister of the Qi State, set the time for the two armies to fight in this tent.

After Li Shiqi left.

The commander of the Qi army.

Tian Dan got up immediately, and gritted his teeth to Tian Chong: "Da Sima, these five days are too short. Although my Qi army has 300,000 soldiers, most of them have not been trained by the Golden Drum. Especially the last batch Yeyi soldiers, they just arrived the day before yesterday."

"Yes, Da Sima, I also think it will take at least half a month to prepare."

Other Qi generals also spoke.

Da Sima rubbed his temples on both sides, and glanced at Qi Mo Xiangfu beside him.

Xiangfu Ji understood in his heart, so he stood up and said: "You generals are right. Our Qi army has just assembled and we still need time to reorganize and train. But will the Qin army give it to us? Although what the Qin envoy just said was exaggerated This remark, but it also shows that Zhao Tuo can't wait any longer, if our army refuses, the other party may plot another conspiracy, and it will be even more difficult to deal with at that time."

"Instead of this, it's better to go with the flow and fight the Qin army in a dignified manner. Besides, our Qi army has more troops than the Qin army, and we have a famous general like Da Sima, and the soldiers are more passionate about defending their homes and the country. What is there to be afraid of?"

Xiangfu opened his mouth quickly, eloquently.

Da Sima nodded and said: "Time is tight, although there are disadvantages. But in fact, there are also advantages. The new arrival of soldiers is the time when they dare to fight to the death with the Qin army. If they stay here for a long time, their fighting spirit will weaken. The ancients said If you go all out, then decline again, and exhaust yourself three times, you can just take advantage of this cutting-edge spirit to defeat the Qin army in one battle."

"Since the time has been set, don't talk about it anymore. Train the soldiers well in the past few days. Before the battle, I will be a great soldier, and then I will fight a dignified battle with Zhao Tuo."

As he spoke, Da Sima raised his head and looked out of the tent, with longing flashing in his eyes.

The battle of gentlemen is my wish.

...

Outside Puyang City, the Qin army camp.

Zhao Tuo, wearing a swan crown and exquisite armor, led a group of counselors and generals to patrol the camp to inspect the state of the Qin army before the war.

"The last general, Wang Li, has met General Zhao."

In front of a military camp, Wang Li looked serious and greeted Zhao Tuo.

Zhao Tuo smiled and nodded to show goodwill, and said: "Today, I will lead the generals to patrol the camp, and we should watch the golden drum formation of the camps. The king of the army can order the soldiers to perform soldiers, and let us watch."

Wang Li glanced at the encouraging Zhao Tuo, took a deep breath, and replied, "Wei."

A moment later, under the command of the military marquis Wang Li, the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty began to conduct military drills on the school grounds.

Zhao Tuo led the generals to the Dianbing platform and raised his eyes to watch.

I saw that the five thousand Qin troops lined up neatly, marching forward amidst the sound of drums, turning left and right under the waving of flags, and performing a series of operations such as changing formations and stopping.

"This Wang Junhou is indeed the son of a general. I heard that this is his first time on the battlefield, but he is already a good soldier. Judging from the golden drums in the queue, our soldiers are much better than the Qi army. "

Li Shiqi pointed to the soldiers of the Qin army on the field and nodded in praise.

Zhao Tuo asked: "Mr. Li has seen the Qi army training?

Li Shiqi shook his head and said with a smile: "Although I haven't seen it yet, just look at the poor camp of the Qi army, the slanting ravines, and the laziness of the soldiers. Let alone the soldiers of the Qi army who came here in batches, the last ones That army is only a few days old, without training, there is no coordination and formation among them. If you want to come to the battlefield, you may be able to defeat it in one battle. Hehe, isn't this what the general wants?"

Zhao Tuo smiled.

What Li Shiqi said was the key to the Qin army's plan to fight in five days. They were fighting the newcomers of the Qi army, untrained and without cooperation.

Without training, you can't stand in a queue, and if you haven't practiced the golden drum banner, you don't know how to advance and retreat. If they don't know how to cooperate with each other, if the friendly army is in trouble, they can stay still like a mountain, or turn their heads and run wildly.

Such an army of 300,000 troops, even though it has a huge force, is essentially nothing more than a mess of scattered sand.

Qin Jun was the opposite. Zhao Tuo stationed troops in Dongjun for two months, but he didn't just sit around and do nothing.

He used these two months to train the array of golden drums, and he must make Qin Zu do what he ordered. Just in terms of the mutual cooperation between the soldiers, I don't know how much the Qi army has improved.

"Big Sima."

Thinking of the commander-in-chief of the Qi army, Zhao Tuo shook his head and sighed again.

The reason why he expected that Ding Tianchong would definitely agree to Qin Jun's request was that the other party was a gentleman with the old aristocratic spirit.

What's more, no matter how powerful the military skills of this great Sima are, after all, they are a little out of touch with reality.

What he said was eloquent, but in fact he didn't have a deep understanding of the situation of the entire army. He would have a kind of blind confidence in the small number of troops, and he didn't know what was the key to victory in an actual war.

Zhao Tuo looked at Wang Li, who was commanding the school field ahead, and said softly: "There is a big gap between being guided and groping by yourself."

Just like what he said, even though Wang Li, Meng Tian and others were new to the battlefield, they looked similar to Tian Chong, but in essence they were very different.

Like Wang Li, he not only learned the art of war from an early age, but also has a solid theoretical foundation. And he also has explanations from his parents and grandparents.

Famous generals such as Wang Jian and Wang Ben will tell Wang Li which things are the key in actual combat, which things need to be paid special attention to, and which practical skills can be used.

Many of these things cannot be learned just by reading military books, but the experience accumulated in the process of actually leading troops to fight. These experiences are of great value. It is enough for Wang Li, Meng Tian and others to quickly master the army and combine theory with practice when they go into battle for the first time.

Compared with this, although Qi State Grand Sima Tianchong also studied military books hard, he worked behind closed doors, with no one to teach and communicate. Therefore, no matter how rich the theoretical experience is, it is somewhat out of touch with the actual war.

Even the Ma Fuzi in the Battle of Changping, even though he had never been on the battlefield before being a general, he often exchanged ideas with his father Zhao She and learned a lot of experience and skills from that veteran, so that he can master The 400,000 troops will not collapse.

This is also incomparable to Tian Chong.

Regardless of the fact that Qi has many soldiers and Qin has few soldiers, in fact the strength and weakness are the opposite.

Half an hour later, with the sound of golden gongs, the Qin army retreated and lined up.

"Wang Junhou is good at training troops, which is very good. When he fights with the Qi army, he will be able to make great achievements."

Zhao Tuo praised Wang Li who came back to his mission, and his words were full of encouragement.

As an old subordinate of Wang Jian and Wang Ben, he naturally had to take good care of the descendants of the old leaders.

"General Miu praised, Wang Li will definitely be brave in the time of battle."

Wang Li responded.

Zhao Tuo gave a few more words of encouragement, and took Li Shiqi and the generals to the next camp.

Wang Li looked at the back of Zhao Tuo who was going away, his eyes were full of complexity.

Once upon a time, Zhao Tuo was just a little Zhonglang in the palace.

At that time, Wang Li was still thinking that when he became a general in the future, he could bring Zhao Tuo under his command and become his right-hand man.

Unexpectedly, times have changed, and after several years, when it was finally his turn to go to the battlefield, he became Zhao Tuo's subordinate.

Zhao Tuo is already a figure who can stand shoulder to shoulder with his father.

Wang Li had his own grievances in his heart, and even had the intention of making great achievements through the battle against Qi.

"Zhao Tuo is an old general under the command of my father and you. He will not treat you badly during your conquest. You should listen to orders carefully and make contributions. Don't be like Li You, who acted recklessly and fell into my king You must remember your prestige!"

And at this time, the words of his father's warning before he left would ring in Wang Li's ears.

Wang Li sighed softly, suppressing his strong thoughts.

"Li learned from the past, I should listen to the order seriously."

...

After leaving Wang Li's barracks, Zhao Tuo continued to inspect the next camps. He observed the training status of the soldiers of each unit, went deep into the barracks, talked with the soldiers at the bottom, and ordered the soldiers to have extra meals for the next few days. They had meat to eat before the war.

And Zhao Tuo also organized military law officials from various ministries to give speeches to the soldiers.

Tell them the importance of this battle against Qi. This is not only the last battle for Qin to unify the world, but also the last battle for them to obtain titles.

If you want to become a master, if you want your children to have the qualifications to enter the school and become a grammar official, then you must go forward bravely, kill the enemy and be promoted!

The only chance to change your own destiny and the destiny of your children is right in front of you!

Not only General Zhao's personal compensation, but also the brainwashing of military law officials at all levels about the benefits of being promoted to nobility, in the entire Qin army camp, all the Qin soldiers were excited and passionate.

"Beat the people of Qi who killed Gou Ri, Nai Gong wants to be promoted!"

"For the king, for General Zhao, for promotion! Defeat the Qi army!"

"To be promoted to a noble and to make meritorious service is now!"

The excited voices of the Qin soldiers finally converged into a sentence of fighting spirit.

"Mie Qi!"
