In addition, Wang Qian, the great general, was absolutely inappropriately commanded. Why didn't Wang Jian personally lead the army to block the Chu army on the north bank of the chasm, and why did he order Wang Ben to lead the army? Why did the 250,000 Qin army and not all the Qin troops fight against the Chu army?

There are so many doubts that the generals almost suspect in their hearts that Wang Jian has received a huge amount of money from the Chu people, so he made such an improper arrangement. The only thing that makes people unsure of this idea is that Wang Ben died in battle. If the 250,000 Qin troops on the north bank of the chasm had deliberately been defeated by the Chu army, Wang Ben would not have died in battle. Of course, perhaps this is also the reason why Wang Ben was mentioned in the news report.

Unlike the Chu army, the Qin army was also heavily fortified and extremely tight, and Qi Brown and others did not know all the facts, let alone Wang Jian in his message to Zhao Zheng against these 100,000 people to rescue Shahai.

It was only because the news known to the generals mentioned that Wang Ben, who led an army of 250,000 to block the Chu army in the chasm, had been killed in battle, and everyone judged that Wang Ben's army of 250,000 had been defeated. Except for the part of Qi Guozhifu, the rest of the boat division has been stationed near the chasm. Blocking the Chu army in the chasm, it is impossible for the boat division not to participate in the war. Zhou Shi participated in the battle or was defeated, did the Chu army really only have 120,000 people?

"The snow doesn't stop, our army can't do it!" In the Mingtang of Rongyang County, Qi Brown glanced at Jing Hua, and his expression was as helpless as a refractive light one hundred and twenty miles south of the beam. "Our army is newly defeated, there is not one of the 250,000 people left, and only 450,000 ...... of the 700,000 army remains."

"An army of 700,000?!" Jing Hua didn't know how many people Wang Jian had under his command, and he was shocked when he heard this number.

"There were 600,000 troops in Shahai, and tens of thousands of people died in the battle of Shashui, so they recruited hundreds of thousands in various places. The previous month, the king ordered General Bai to lead the Longxi army to the Shahai. General Bai had 60,000 or 70,000 soldiers, and Guanzhong summoned tens of thousands of fifteen-year-old boys, and there were 100,000. "After all, Qi Brown is a lieutenant's general, and he knows a lot more things than Jing Hua, an upstart. Speaking of the size of the Qin army, he was indignant again, and said: "This Changping is the second, why did the general divide his troops to block the Jing people in the chasm instead of the whole army to block the Jing people in the chasm? If Wu Anjun is alive......"

This army led by Qi Brown was just in case. In case the troops are insufficient, at least 40,000 of these 100,000 people can come in handy - except for the lieutenant and the guard captain, who are equipped with huge iron weapons, the remaining 60,000 people are all bronze soldiers. Qi Brown bitterly condemned Wang Jian for not being as good as Wu Anjun Baiqi, and he thought that if Wu Anjun Baiqi led the army, the Chu army would have been surrounded long ago. Involving the general Wang Qian, Jing Hua didn't know how to answer, and Rongyang Ling Du Fu didn't dare to echo at will, just looked at Qi Brown and smiled.

After a while, Jing Hua looked at Rong Yang Ling Du Fu who was smiling dryly and asked, "Du County Ling knows how to get to the Sand Sea?" ”

"Violent snowstorm, there is not enough snow on the road, how can you get to the sea of sand?" Du Fu furrowed his brows and shook his head again and again. "And where General Wang obstructs the Jing people, it should be south of the Sand Sea and west of the Great Liang......"

Rongyang is in Rongze, west of the Great Wall of Wei. From Rongze to Shahai, the nearest road is not to follow the chasm to Shahai, but to go south to Xinzheng, and then turn due east to Yuguan in Huayang, and enter Yuguan to Weijing and pass through Daliang to reach Shahai.

The girder is one hundred and seventy miles away from the Rongyang waterway, and the land route is definitely more than one hundred and seventy miles. And fifty miles east of Yuguan is Kaifeng, out of Yuguan to the east to Kaifeng to the road to the girder, you have to follow the official road between the girder of Kaifeng to the north. The Chu army went north to Daliang, and this road was occupied by the Chu army.

Jing Hua knew the difficulty of going to the Sand Sea, and was speechless for a while. But some people are not ready to take the land route, Dong Guo Ruo under the command of Qi Brown said: "Violent storm and snow, there is not enough snow, but I don't know if the chasm is sealed?" ”

"The chasm?" Du Fu didn't understand the meaning of his words. "If the chasm is not sealed, Rongyang will not have a boat to transport 100,000 people."

"Definitely." Dong Guo Ruodao. "If the chasm is sealed, it is feasible to reach the sea of sand above the chasm."

"The chasm ......" Qi Brown nodded again and again after being surprised, and he said: "Yes, our army can go from the chasm to the sand sea!" ”

"The general is fallacious." Du Fu hurriedly stopped. "The chasm is frozen to the chasm, and the east of the Yan clan is the Great Wall of Wei, and the east of the Great Wall is all Daze and uninhabited. This is more than 40 miles away from Yan's Yi, and Yan's Yi is more than 120 miles away from Daliang. In the violent storm and snow, the army can stay in Rongyang, but it can stay in Yanshiyi, one hundred and twenty miles east of Yanshiyi, where can it stay? ”

"This ......" Qi Brown, as the leading army, is basically an internal march. Generally, before the army arrived at the camp, the local county had already sent people to send grain and dry firewood. After entering the east of the Great Wall of Wei along the chasm, there were no cities and towns for 120 miles. In normal times, it can be reluctant, but now that the snow is falling, the Chu army occupies the gap to the west of Daliang, so the march will definitely not work.

"Is Osawa frozen? I can't, I can't stay on Daze......" Dong Guo Ruo, who proposed to go directly to Daliang from the frozen chasm, didn't want to give up his proposal, he still thought about how to rush to the sand sea as soon as possible. Before he finished speaking, he saw that everyone turned their heads to look out the window. The north wind swept wildly, and the sky suddenly became dark, and the lightless Mingtang fell into darkness in an instant.

He was speechless, although it was snowing heavily in the morning, the sky was still a little bright. Now that the snow is falling, it is dark, which shows how big the snow is. The weather in Rongyang may not be the weather in the Sand Sea, if the snow in the Sand Sea is not so heavy, the battle of the 100,000 troops has not yet arrived in Yanshiyi. By the time 100,000 people arrived, the Chu army had already finished resting. In that case, what's the point of rushing to the sea of sand?

Dong Guo Ruo's idea is actually Wang Qian's idea. Thinking that the two armies would have a decisive battle the next day and that the Qin army was about to be defeated, Wang Jian asked Zhao Zheng not to send reinforcements based on this idea. Instead of rushing to Shahai, these reinforcements should be stationed at Hangu Pass. As for the Chu army will attack the pass from Wuguan, the Dan water is not smooth in winter, and the Chu army will not be able to enter the pass again until at least tomorrow in May and June.

It was snowing blizzly, and the sea of sand had been in darkness since last night. It was only dawn at dawn, but it was also gray, and the rest of the time it was dark. It's not snow, it's pouring snow, and snowflakes are pouring down from the sky like mud chips, obscuring the sun. Wang Jian can only rely on the leaky pot warmed with carbon fire to remember the time, otherwise there is no leaky pot, and he doesn't know what time and moment it is.

Blizzard is not a good thing for Qin Jun. Wang Ben's army finally tired the Chu army, and a heavy snowfall fell for a few days and nights, and the fatigue of the Chu soldiers was gradually passing away, and those lightly injured soldiers fought again. The ratio of strength between the two armies, including the cavalry and the 60,000 men who retreated to the Sand Sea, has dropped from 710,000 to 120,000 to 510,000 to 110,000 now. If the Wei and Zhao armies in Daliang City also participated in the battle, it would be 510,000 against 140,000.

The number of troops has been greatly reduced, the armor is also insufficient, and the battle formation is even more disadvantageous. Not only Wang Jian alone, but all the generals, including the right general Zhao Yong, began to feel that the hope of victory for the Qin army was very slim. The heavy snow fell in the dark for three days, and only rested on the fourth day, and in the flickering candles of the shogunate, Liu Chi put aside others and made a suggestion to Wang Qian: "Our army has no armor, and we can't exhaust the enemy, so this battle will definitely not be won." If you can't win, can you go? ”

"Let's go?!" Wang Jian glared at Liu Chi, and he said angrily: "You leave at this time!" You ......"

The plan for the decisive battle was conceived by Liu Chi and others, and now Liu Chi has actually changed his previous plan and suggested that he retreat. Wang Jian got to know Liu Chi again, and never thought that he was such a person.

"Our army has more than 80,000 armor, only 60,000 cloth armor, and only 160,000 spears. The rest are all dressed in leather armor, hundreds of thousands of soldiers hold iron spears, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers hold bronze spears, how to fight? Liu Chi reported the exact number of armor and weapons in the army. Originally, there were more cloth armor and huge spears, but Wang Ben took away 20,000 cloth armor and 20,000 huge spears, and the number of armor and spears that could be used was not much more than the number of Chu troops.

"The general should know that the cavalry is all wearing cloth armor, and there are only 20,000 cloth armor for such foot soldiers. In addition, there are more than 80,000 sets of giant armor, and there are only more than 100,000. Wang Jian was angry, and Liu Chi was excited. He did not propose to withdraw the troops simply because he was afraid of death, he arranged troops with his advisers day and night, and only came up with the idea of withdrawing when there was no hope.

"Our army is two thousand five hundred columns wide, each with forty rows, and this hundred thousand people are also. 480,000 foot soldiers can be lined up in five formations, but 83,000 sets of giant armor are only 33 lines, which are evenly divided into five formations, and there are only six people in each formation wearing huge armor! plus 20,000 sets of cloth armor, but eight people. Liu Chi, who was full of excitement, pointed his finger at Wang Jian and made a figure of eight. The remaining 380,000 soldiers are all wearing leather armor, and the Jing people can kill them with arrows, so how can they win this battle? The young general and the war made the Jing people tired, but the sky fell blizzard, and the sky didn't help Qin? ”

A strategist's weapon is wisdom, but when all wisdom fails, despair naturally breeds. Wang Jian is not a strategist, he is a general. Generals, like warriors, rely not on intelligence but on force. As long as they can kill, they won't despair. It doesn't matter if there are 80,000 sets of huge armor, or 40,000 sets of huge armor, like Wang Ben, if there is no huge armor, as long as the array does not collapse, he will continue to fight.

Originally, Wang Jian was extremely angry at Liu Chi's rebellion, but thinking that the strategists were not generals, they were just some diners with smarter brains, how could he, as the lord, be angry with a diner. He bowed to Liu Chi, who was still excited, and said very calmly: "Daliang is not Linzi, I will fight with the Jing people." ”

"The general really thinks that the stone throwing weapon can break the thorn people?" Liu Chi looked at Wang Jian incredulously. "The temple counts as ......"

"I will defeat the Jing people with the courage of the Qin people!" Wang Jian stood up suddenly, and he looked at the armor soldier at the curtain door with a look that regarded Liu Chi as nothing. Fear is like a plague, and if you are not careful, it can spread on a large scale. He subconsciously drank out a sentence, and the armor quickly stepped forward. Liu Chi was surprised that when Wang Jian summoned the armor soldiers, Wang Jian said: "Before the war, Liu Chi was imprisoned in a private account, and he was not allowed to go out or whisper to others!" ”

"General!" Liu Chi was taken aback, he never thought that Wang Jian would imprison him. "The Great General......

"It's only a few days." Wang Jian said a gentle word, and then waved his sleeves to let the armor take Liu Chi away.
