"Father, then Zhao Tuo has been appointed as General Pi!"
Li You walked into the room, his eyes were completely red, and his voice was trembling.
Li Si was sitting in front of the case, tasting his favorite turtle meat soup.
Hearing Li You's words, he didn't raise his head. He reached out and scooped up a spoonful of turtle soup with his dagger, blew on it, put it into his mouth and tasted it in small sips, with an intoxicated look on his face.
"Sure enough, we still need to use old turtles that are more than 20 years old to make soup, and add some bluegrass unique to the Chu region to give it some flavor."
Seeing Li You's face getting more and more ugly, Li Si put down his dagger and spoke.
"As Zhao Tuo holds the title of Zhong Geng, isn't it natural for him to serve as General Pi? What's so surprising? Didn't you say before that you wouldn't fight with him and would only go to the battlefield to perform meritorious service?"
"Father, I have no intention of quarreling with Zhao Tuo." Li You blushed and lowered his voice. "It's just that he was appointed as General Pi. He can manage several lieutenants and military commanders under his command. If I enter
What should I do if I am under his jurisdiction after serving in the army? Wang Jian has always admired Zhao Tuo. What if they deliberately let me..."
"Don't worry, Wang Jian won't do it."
Li Si was a little speechless. It turned out that Li You was afraid that Wang Jian would deliberately assign him to Zhao Tuo's command, and then Zhao Tuo would take care of him.
Based on Li Si's understanding of Wang Jian, it was impossible for the old general to do such a stupid thing. Even because this battle was too important, he would not set his sights on the little Li You at all.
As for other people, it is even less likely that they would deliberately offend themselves, the new Tingwei, for such a thing.
Yes, just a few days ago, in order to make the Qin State more efficient during the war, the Qin Wangzheng made an appointment, dismissal and promotion of all officials.
First of all, the position of Right Prime Minister reserved for Changping Lord Xiong Qi was no longer reserved due to Xiong Qi's betrayal, so the original Left Prime Minister Wei Zhuang was promoted to Right Prime Minister.
The post of Prime Minister Zuo was filled by Wang Wan, the imperial censor.
The post of imperial censor was again held by Feng Jie of the Feng family.
As for Tingwei, one of the nine ministers, he took the initiative to report his illness and return home, leaving this important position to Li Si, who had been waiting for a long time.
Now, after more than twenty years of living in the Qin State, Li Si has finally climbed to the high position of Tingwei, and is considered one of the people who truly stand at the top of the country.
So while he was overjoyed, Li Si also took a longer-term view and looked down upon Li You's petty thoughts.
However, he could also understand his son's worries, and after comforting him with words such as "pattern", he also said some practical things.
"Don't worry. This time the king will send 600,000 troops, and only 200,000 troops will be sent from Guanzhong. The rest of the troops will be recruited by various counties. I will inform the Bangwei Mansion and arrange you to join the troops recruited by Nan County.
Serve as military marquis."
Because of Li You's defeat in the Chu Territory, he was punished by having his title reduced by two levels. His current title is not even as good as when he was a general in the palace. He only has an official title and is not even qualified to wear a crown. This title means that he can hold the title for a long time.
It's okay to be a leader of two to five hundred, and I can barely make sense as a military commander.
Now it seems that Li Si is going to rely on his connections to let him continue to be a military commander and command five thousand people.
Li You listened and was extremely happy.
Give me 5,000 people, and I still have a chance to turn around!
Li Si glanced at his son and continued: "You and I were originally from Chu. Nanjun was originally a Chu land, and its people all spoke of the sound of Jingchu. If you go to Nanjun to lead the army, you can gain military morale with the sound of Chu, making it easier to command."
Soldier. Secondly, you don’t need to come into contact with Zhao Tuo, so as not to affect your mood. When you go to the battlefield in the future, just do your best and fight."
Hearing this, Li You was happy at first, but then said with a gloomy expression: "Although this arrangement is good, most of the Nanjun soldiers are weak soldiers. How can they be compared with the elites in Guanzhong."
Li Si glared at him and said, "Then it depends on your ability to train the army. Could it be that Zhao Tuo moved to Chu to fight thousands of miles away, and the men he led were all the elites of Guanzhong?"
"As far as I know, Zhao Tuo's men in Chu are made up of soldiers from all over the country. Except for a small number of Guanzhong people, most of them come from Han, Hanoi, Shangdang, and even barbarians from Hanzhong. You lead a group of Nanjun
Chu Bing, isn't he much better than him?"
Hearing this, Li You became happy again.
What my father said is true. Five thousand Nanjun soldiers are better to command than a patchwork army.
Li Youdao: "Okay, he Zhao Tuo can train troops, and I, Li You, can also train troops!"
Moreover, I also want to build a strong army!
Li You was very excited.
Recently, he stayed at home and studied the art of war diligently, studying various military books and tactics.
Finally, I understood the essence of Zhao Tuo's decisive victory in a last-ditch battle.
In addition to Houfuqi soldiers, that is the military spirit!
Zhao Tuo's five thousand soldiers all served him, so they could fight to the death without retreating, and one was worth ten.
If the army's morale is low, I am afraid that it will not be able to hold out for that long and it will be defeated by the Chu army, let alone turn defeat into victory.
"There is a saying in the art of war: treat a soldier like a baby, so you can go to a deep stream with him; treat a soldier like a beloved son, so you can die with him."
"He who captures the heart of the army will surely win. From now on, I, Li, will hold the heart of the general in my hands. When the time comes, the top and bottom will be one, so there is no need to worry about victory!"
Li You raised his head, his eyes shining with confidence.
After research and inquiry, he has learned a lot from Zhao Tuo.
Let the soldiers write letters home and personally write the letters home to touch people with their feelings.
Reward the soldiers with cattle and wine, buy them shoes with money, and buy them with material goods.
…
What Zhao Tuo can do, Li You can do the same.
What Zhao Tuo couldn't do, Li You could even do it.
"In the old days when Wu Qi was a general, he shared the same food and clothing with the lowest rank among the soldiers. He did not provide a table when lying down, and did not ride on a horse when traveling. He wrapped the grain himself and shared the labor with the soldiers. If a soldier had gangrene, he would suck it up. This is why soldiers cannot fight.
Swirl heel.”
"I, Li You, will imitate Wu Qi and do what Zhao Tuo cannot do."
"In this way, the military spirit is in my hands, and all five thousand people will die for me. Why worry about not being able to fight against the odds, why not be able to defeat the powerful enemy and make meritorious deeds!"
Li You raised his head, his confidence and pride returned again.
…
"It's really good to have a relationship."
Zhao Tuo was very happy, not only because he had been officially appointed as General Bi for this attack on Chu.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Especially because of his relationship with Wei Liao and Wang Jian.
He arranged all his old subordinates such as Shejian, Heiyi, Zhao Guang, Bai Rong, etc. under his command.
When Zhao Tuo learned that Su Jiao, who was appointed county captain, was also recruited, Zhao Tuo assigned Su Jiao to his side.
In this way, when the time comes, Zhao Tuo will have some old subordinates and his own people who are accustomed to him, and they will be at ease whether it is training troops or going to the battlefield to fight.
However, it is still in the distribution and coordination stage, preparing for the official dispatch of troops. It will take another one or two months to officially start the war. When the spring plowing is over, everyone can gather under Zhao Tuo again to make meritorious deeds.
"Based on historical results, Wang Jian's attack on Chu should be safe."
"But because of my relationship, this time has been moved forward a whole year, and the fate of many people has changed. This time, there shouldn't be any surprises, right?"
Zhao Tuo would occasionally feel a little worried.
He has realized that as he does more and more things in this era and his influence becomes greater and greater, more and more things will be changed by the butterfly effect caused by him.
Everyone's destiny has taken a different direction from the original history.
Occasionally, things that transcend the original history seem to have become normal.
…
In the midst of Fengfeng, three rangers walked out of Fengyi, jumped on their horses, and looked toward the northeast.
A short-bearded ranger sighed: "It's a pity that Liu Ji was captured by the Qin army, otherwise we would have to kill him to avenge Zhang Jun and all the righteous men."
Another yellow-faced ranger shook his head and said: "It's not necessarily Liu Ji who was captured by the Qin people. Isn't there a saying in Fengyi that the person named Lu Wan was captured by the Qin people?"
"It's just childish talk. Since neither Lu Wan nor Liu Ji came back, I guess they were either killed on the spot by the Qin people or captured together. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to have not returned home for so long." Short-bearded Ranger
He shook his head.
The yellow-faced ranger nodded and said: "That's right. After all, it was his wedding night. If he hadn't been captured or killed by the Qin people, how could he have left his bride and run away."
"It's a pity that the bride became a widow without even enjoying a night of happiness. Mr. Nai feels really sorry for her."
"Hey hey hey..."
Listening to the conversation between the two people, Chen Yu shook his head.
They had a lot of experience during their trip, and they also inquired about Liu Ji's affairs.
According to his understanding, the rangers who came to kill Liu Ji last time were all killed by Liu Ji, which was very regrettable.
Chen Yu had the heart to avenge Zhang Er and those knights with his own hands.
But unfortunately, according to people in Fengyi, Liu Ji encountered the Qin army coming here on his wedding night. The leading Qin general seemed to be the one who conquered Waihuang in the first place. He hated Liu Ji's betrayal and ordered Liu Ji to be captured.
I don’t know what the real outcome will be. Anyway, no one in Fengyi has seen Liu Ji again since that night.
"Liu Ji, the little man's ear must have died in the hands of those Qin people. Instead, it was the Qin general Zhao Tuo..."
Chen Yu squinted his eyes and thought of what he had heard about Qin general Zhao Tuo along the way.
He made a surprise attack on Shouchun, the capital of Chu, and fought thousands of miles away to attack the city. Pengcheng shot the Qu brothers to death, and formed a formation on the banks of Si River to defeat the Chu army...
Every thing was talked about. Not to mention the people of Qin, even the people of Qi and Chu couldn't help but praise him when they heard about the incredible achievements: "Zhao Tuo is such a man."
"My brother's death at the hands of such a person did not disgrace his reputation. If I have the opportunity in the future, I will behead Zhao Tuo and avenge my brother."
Chen Yu whispered to himself, but then he put the matter out of his mind and looked to the northeast
Qi State.
He is going to Qi State to do a big thing!
Compared with this matter, Zhao Tuo and Liu Ji were both insignificant.
"I assassinated the Qin envoy in Qingyang, triggering a war between Qin and Chu. In the end, the Qin army was defeated in Huaibei, with countless casualties. The blood of tens of thousands of Qin people is enough to pay tribute to my brother."
"Compared to cutting off the heads of two Shuzi, this is the real revenge!"
Chen Yu was very proud.
His one assassination move actually caused a bloody battle between two great powers in the world, with tens of thousands of corpses lying on the ground, bleeding and floating in the oars.
It was as if the entire world's situation was controlled by Chen Yu.
That feeling is amazing and refreshing.
But the battle between Qin and Chu was over, and it was not enough.
Because Qin general Zhao Tuo defeated the Chu army in the battle of Surabaya, Chen Yu's pleasure in revenge was weakened a lot.
This is not enough.
He wants more.
The people of Qin did not shed enough blood.
He Chen Yu wanted to let the Qin people bleed the last drop of blood.
Therefore, he turned his attention to Qi State.
Chen Yu wants to use the sword in his hand to change the world situation again.
"I, Chen Yu, should carry out Zhuanzhu and Nie Zheng's affairs..."
