Chapter 266 Zhongshan, Wang Jian(1/2)

In 227 BC, the 20th year of the Qin Emperor's reign, Prince Dan of Yan sent Jing Ke to assassinate Qin. After the failure, he angered the King of Qin, so he immediately summoned a large army, appointed Xin Sheng as the general, and rushed to Yan.

"Wind! Wind!"

"Gale!"

The army of Qin was in good order and under the command of Xin Sheng, it was ready to march at any time.

On the city wall, Ying Zheng, Gai Nie, Zhang Min, Zhou Ming and others looked at the mighty army below with different expressions.

Ying Zheng said with some pride: "How is our army of Great Qin?"

"An iron army."

Zhou Ming sighed from the bottom of his heart.

The army belonging to Great Qin in history may have been a strong army, but it would certainly not be as organized as it is now.

But there is no way, who said this is an animation world and not real history.

Therefore, Zhou Ming could completely see that although the army below was large in number, it was extremely neat, and each military formation was like a square.

It’s incredibly neat!

If we look at it according to this standard, not to mention the current era, if we push it two thousand years in the future, there may not be such an army.

(Anti-anticipation: Two thousand years after 227 BC is 1773)

"If you want to go with the army, I can naturally arrange you to join this army. However, since you are unwilling to reveal your identity, you can only start as an ordinary soldier."

There was a hint of ridicule in Ying Zheng's tone.

Zhou Ming shook his head and said: "Whether it is an ordinary soldier or a commander-in-chief, the enemies we face are just ordinary soldiers or generals with a little martial arts. I would rather fight against the real masters in the world."

Human energy is limited. As a general, if you train soldiers and study the art of war every day, how much time can you spend practicing martial arts?

If you are working hard every day during the war, you will have no time to practice.

In contrast, the masters of various sects have a lot of time to practice martial arts. Therefore, in the same age group, disciples of sects are often stronger than soldiers in the army.

Of course, what we are talking about here is normal cultivation. If there are heavenly materials and earthly treasures that increase one's skill, or if there is outstanding talent and the cultivation speed is unusual for ordinary people, it is not within this rule.

When Ying Zheng heard this, he said: "Then join the army as a Qishi and be responsible for assisting the military."

Qishi are prepared for those sect disciples who are unwilling to join the army but can play a huge role in the military.

Most of the strange men in the Great Qin army were disciples of the Yin Yang family and were responsible for observing the weather.

If you can grasp the favorable conditions of the weather, you will definitely have a huge advantage in war.

In addition, there is the Qin Mo faction of the Mohist family, who also has no intention of holding an official position and serves as a rare scholar.

There are naturally people from other sects, but most of them pursue power, so they hold normal military positions.

"The Qi Shi's status is quite good, but this army will be spared. I don't know how long it will take for them to reach the Yan Kingdom."

Ying Zheng was stunned: "Then...where are you going?"

"Isn't Wang Jian on the edge of Yan State? I can just go find him."

In 228 BC, that is, last year, Wang Jian led an army to wipe out the State of Zhao, and then led an army to sit in Zhongshan to intimidate the State of Yan.

Although the State of Zhao was destroyed at that time, it was not completely destroyed. King Zhao's son, Gongzi Jia, luckily escaped and ran to Dai County, the northernmost part of the State of Zhao, to establish his own state of Dai and allied with the State of Yan. He sent troops to Shanggu to guard against Wang Jian.

Until now, Wang Jian has not returned yet and is leading his troops outside.

Ying Zheng sent this army. Although Xin Sheng led it, he was only the leader. Once all these troops were sent, they would all be under the command of Wang Jian.

Xin Sheng could at most serve as an ordinary general, leading a small army and obeying Wang Jian's orders.

Let’s not talk about anything else, just the marching speed.

It will take at least two months for this group of troops to arrive on the battlefield of Yan State.

Zhou Ming couldn't wait for such a long time.

Just go directly to Wang Jian.

If the war can be started in advance and with his help, the Yan Kingdom may be defeated directly in these two months.

"I just don't know if Daiguo is a country..."

If calculated, this wave could wipe out two countries at once and over-complete the main progression quest.

"In that case, I will give you a piece of Qishi Ling, and you can go find Wang Jian yourself."

Although Ying Zheng didn't know that Zhou Ming could fly, the masters in this world were basically those who were very good at Qinggong. If they used Qinggong day and night, their progress would be many times faster than the army.

Therefore, he did not object to Zhou Ming's decision.

Immediately, Zhang Min was asked to send someone to fetch a piece of Qishi Ling, and also took out a piece of silk script, wrote a letter, and handed it to Zhou Ming at the same time.

"Sir, please give these two things to Wang Jian. I think Wang Jian will never despise you."

Zhou Ming nodded and took the token and silk book.

Wasn't the reason why you put so much effort into camp selection just to gain a good identity and take advantage of it?

Wouldn't it be better if Ying Zheng took the initiative to help without opening his mouth now?

"Okay, I'm leaving."

Zhou Ming jumped to the edge of the city wall. After bidding farewell to everyone, he flew into the sky with a gust of wind, and in the blink of an eye, he became a black spot in the sky.

"Sir... you are truly a god!"

Ying Zheng said in shock.

Gai Nie was also very surprised and said: "In the past, Liezi controlled the wind by relying on his own illusions, and traveled across the sea and the sky at dusk. I thought it was just a legend, but I didn't expect that someone in this world could actually do it!"

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, capable people emerged in large numbers.

Although Zhou Ming's ability to ride on the wind is unique, it is not without its predecessors.

Therefore, although everyone was surprised, they did not feel that their world view had been refreshed.

North, Zhongshan.

This place was originally a country composed of Xianyu and other tribes. Because the place where the country was founded was a city built on a mountain, with mountains in the city, it was named Zhongshan.

This country was later destroyed by the State of Zhao, and this place became the territory of the State of Zhao.

Now that the State of Zhao has been destroyed by the State of Qin, Zhongshan will naturally belong to the State of Qin.

This place is built on the mountain, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is also close to Yan State and not far from Dai State, so it became the place where Wang Jian's army was stationed.

In the city, high on the mountain, Wang Jian was wearing armor. Looking into the distance, he could vaguely see the Great Wall.

The place he was looking at was called Shanggu, where the northern Great Wall of Yan State was located.

Yan, on behalf of the two countries' coalition forces, now deployed their troops there to be on guard against Wang Jian.

"Gongzi Jia is just a homeless dog, not worth mentioning. As for the Yan Kingdom, there is only this little wealth left. If someone defeats this army, the Yan Kingdom will be in the pocket of my great Qin!

Unfortunately, the next target is Qi State..."

Wang Jian murmured in a low voice.

Although he really felt a pity in his heart, he also knew that attacking Qi first was a strategic goal set from the beginning, for the greater benefit.

If we attack the Yan State first, it will be detrimental to the overall situation.

At this time, the information from Xianyang has not yet been transmitted. Wang Jian did not know about Jing Ke's assassination of the King of Qin, nor did he know that the throne of Chu State changed on March 3. Otherwise, with his wisdom, he could immediately guess the next strategy.

The goal is about to change.

"General! General! Look here, there is a martial arts master coming."

The guards around him shouted repeatedly, attracting Wang Jian's attention.

He turned around and saw a blurry figure flying quickly from the sky.

"This... Liezi uses the virtual to control the wind! Could it be that an old Taoist is here?"

While thinking, the figure had already flown into the military camp, glanced at Wang Jian standing on the top of the mountain, and then jumped down.

"Taoist Li Feiyu, on the order of King Qin, came to assist General Wang Jian!"

The clear voice was neither urgent nor slow, but it spread directly throughout the entire military camp.

Even Wang Jian, who was standing on the top of the mountain, could hear it clearly, as if the man was speaking in his ear.

"Taoist Li Feiyu?"

Wang Jian muttered the name but couldn't think of it.

But Wang Jian cannot underestimate his ability to control the wind just now.

"The king really gave me a great gift!"

War is about the right time, right place, and people.

With Li Feiyu's ability to fly in the wind, he can fly into the enemy's territory, check the terrain, military distribution, and draw maps.

In this way, coupled with the Yin Yang family's ability to predict the weather, the world and the people can control the world. Before the war begins, the winning rate will be increased by at least half.
To be continued...
