Qin Dynasty Novelist

"Within ten days, the ministries were divided according to the defensive terrain, each built strong walls and ditches, and gathered more rolling wood, stone bows and arrowheads. The craftsman camp dredged the waterways to ensure that the well water flowed into the camps of the ministries."

"The military battalion must speed up the manufacture of bows, crossbows and arrows, and various defensive equipment. The supply battalion is under the command of the general, and immediately rushes to the hinterland counties to supervise the transportation of grain and grass. When the Qin army arrives, there is no order from the general of the army, and no one is allowed to fight without authorization. But those who violate the order will be subject to military law!"

Li Mu ordered in an orderly manner, simple and clear, falling into the ears of every general.

"Here!"

All the generals bowed their hands deeply, and after that, the entire camp of Zhao State, where hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses gathered, moved.

Chapter 830: The Sound Shocks the World (First Update)

The three-way army moved, and the general Wang Jian personally led the main force of 20 troops, divided into several camps, and stationed beside the river in front of Jingxingkou. The name of the river is peach water and sprawling water.

Wang Jian's army deployment was extremely meticulous. When training the new army, hundreds of scouts were sent to Zhao in turn. They made a detailed survey of the distribution of water sources in all possible passages, and drew maps one by one.

Today, it is even more clearly manifested on the sand table. Before sending out troops, Wang Jian sent scouts to repeatedly inspect the three established marching channels to monitor the changes in the water sources of each route in multiple ways, and provide a decision basis for the army to determine where to station at any time.

The thing to guard against is that the Zhao army may block the water and cut off the water. In the troubled times of the Warring States Period, there were not many people who used water as a battle, but the importance of water is unspoken. A small dispute over water is likely to turn into a diplomatic war or even a war. Meet each other.

"General, within a hundred miles around the five camps as the core, there is no abnormality in the water source."

Hearing that the scouts in front of him came to report, Wang Jian couldn't help feeling relieved.

The last time we fought here, Zhao Guo supported the troops in a hurry, so it was the same. Unexpectedly, it was the same this time.

"Li Mu is so negligent, isn't it God's will to destroy Zhao?"

After thinking a lot, Wang Jian sighed deeply, the water source was not obstructed, so he assumed that there would be no future troubles, and then he could gather troops to test Li Mu's method of using troops.

The 20 troops are divided into five barracks, standing in front of Jingxingkou, separated from each other in an orderly manner, and in front of the mountains, they are even more particular. Of course, it is not a problem for Qin, which once had the Changping War.

Cavalry, infantry, vehicles, crossbowmen and various large-scale equipment are mixed and coordinated to fight together, as well as the transportation and guarantee of food, grass and luggage, all of which have been skillfully integrated.General Wang Jian gave the order, and the entire Qin army immediately began to operate effectively like a large machine.

When the army is completed, it is ready to go!

At the same moment, Li Mu was also ready. Although he was good at cavalry and archery battle formations, but... he had fought in the mountain battle before, and he had not lost any battles. The shogunate's discussions were over, and more than 20 troops were also divided into camps , Waiting for Qin to attack.

"General, the king's order is not coming for the time being, and the food and grass are only enough for one month. Should we issue a military order to collect food in the Taihang generation?"

Lieutenant General Sima Shang entered from outside the army tent and checked some of the army's luggage just now. Although it will be fine for a short time, but looking at it right now, the battle between Qin and Zhao is obviously not going to end in a short time.

"Issue a military order!"

Li Mu didn't hesitate. Although Wang Shu didn't fall behind, the grain Han Cang brought last time was limited. If he wanted to persist for a long time, he had to collect grain from nearby counties.

"Yes!"

For more than a hundred years in the Zhao Kingdom, after many wars, all counties and counties have their own traditions of transporting grain and grass, especially the counties and counties west of Handan. Sima Shang thinks that this is not a problem.

When Qin and Zhao fought, naturally everything was in the army.

When the Qin State wanted to completely destroy the Zhao State, Li Mu personally led [-] of the most elite frontier troops to sit at the end. First, to guard against food and grass, and second, to dispatch the Central Army, North Route Army, and South Route Army at any time.

With the current situation of Taixing's eight defenses, there will be no accidents, and there will be no problems if you stick to it. Of course, the court in Handan must not have any problems. If so, you can stalemate with Qin for a year and a half.

Prince Jia and the others were ready to act, so Li Mu didn't focus on the Qin army's attack, and the scouts sent to Handan would come back every three or two days to report the incident.

As long as this place can be defended, Li Mu will not interfere with the situation in Handan.

On the tenth day at Jingxingkou, Chen Bing on both sides, under the order of the general Wang Jian, began the first attack directly.

The danger of Jingxing Mountain is not in Jingxing Pass, but in the passage of Jingxing Mountain below it.In fact, the situation on the ground is similar to Hangu Pass in Qin Dynasty, a long canyon and a pass city sandwiched between two mountains.The situation is narrow and dangerous, and it is impossible to deploy a large army.

Wang Jian came to the front in person, boarded the scout cloud car, and accompanied him around. There were powerful warriors sent from Xianyang, and some people from the trap mixed in to prevent the assassination methods of warriors in Zhao.

From the heights, you can see everything at the bottom of the valley, and the mountains on both sides of Jingxingkou, the sun is setting, because there are flags floating, but that distance is not a place for ambushes, but it is not appropriate to be far from the command post.

"Could it be that Li Mu is there?"

For a moment, deep in Wang Jian's heart, a strange idea came up.

It is said that the son of a daughter can't sit still, Li Mu is now a general of the Zhao State, so he can appear anywhere, not too far away from him, hiding deep in the mountains and forests, and avoiding all attacks.

"That's Wang Jian?"

In the depths of the mountain forest, just as Wang Jian had guessed, Li Mu came to the front when they fought for the first time, looking away, the black armored general on the cloud car sank into the depths of his eyes.

"good."

Lieutenant General Sima Shang nodded.

"Sima Shang, what do you think of Wang Jian?"

Consolidating Wang Jian for a long time, Li Mu asked Sima Shang who was beside him.

"Wang Jiansu is a native of Qin. He joined the army in his early years and served under Qin generals Wu Anjun Bai Qi and Meng Ao. For the past ten years, he has been loyal to King Qin Yingzheng. It is the pillar of the army."

"Far more than Qin general Meng Wu, so he is the No. 1 in the Qin army today! Ying Zheng trusts him very much!"

Sima Shang heard about it, but he didn't know what the general meant?

Regarding Wang Jian's news, the general was obviously no stranger to it, but when he asked himself, Sima Shang thought he was familiar with it, after all, to put it simply.

"How do you think Wang Jian compares to Bai Qi and Meng Ao?"

Li Mu asked again.

For decades, within the Qin State, the most famous generals of the Shandong kingdoms, but Bai Qi, Meng Ao, Meng Wu, Yang Duanhe, and Wang Jian were not prominent, but Ying Zheng let Wang Jian lead an army of more than 40 to attack Zhao. .
