The Six Arts of the Gentleman in the Bright Moon of Qin Dynasty

Chapter 778 Li Xin: It’s so cool to use your power to suppress others [Please subscribe*Please vote for the monthly ticket]

Cao Shen originally wanted to rely on the super-mobility and speed of the Bingzhou Blood Cavalry, take advantage of Xiang Liang's underestimation of the enemy and his ignorance of the Bingzhou Iron Cavalry's participation in the battle, bypass the Tenglong Legion and the Chu border defenses to launch a surprise attack on Ruyin and Xiacai.

Once he succeeds, his name will become famous all over the world.

His strategy was also highly praised by veteran generals such as Yang Duanhe and Wang Ben and Li Xin, a rising star of the Qin State.

However, I didn’t expect that there would be gaps between famous generals.

The strategy that Yang Duanhe and Wang Ben highly praised was seen through by Your Majesty and General Li Ren, who even came to support it in advance.

A feeling of frustration arises, but at the same time, a sense of pride and honor also arises.

This is what I got in return for traveling thousands of miles and walking three thousand miles from Yanmen Pass to the Beiye Royal Court.

Sometimes choice is more important than hard work.

Cao Shen has his own pride. Following behind Bingzhou and standing on the shoulders of these top generals, the scenery he will be able to see in the future will be infinite and the achievements he will be able to achieve will also be unlimited.

The future is expected!

behind?

Savage?

No, Bingzhou will become a holy land for military strategists in the world!
As Bingzhou people, they are worthy of pride and honor!

Cao Shen was somewhat disdainful of Bingzhou's noble bloodline, which was originally used to deceive the barbarians on the grassland.

But now, Cao Shen is proud to be a member of Bingzhou.

This is the national pride and self-confidence.

It was not until this moment that Cao Shen truly developed a sense of belonging and destiny towards Bingzhou.

"Next..." Xiong Qi looked at Li Ren and Wei Ju with resentment.

Li Ren and Wei Ju were also thinking about their next move.

Now they have two choices.

1. Cooperate with the Qin elite soldiers to kick the Tenglong Legion's ass, kill the Tenglong Legion, and completely occupy the territory of Chu State north of the Huai River.

Second, continue to occupy Ruyin and Xiacai to contain Shouchun's Leibao Corps and the remaining Chu army.

"We... are not good at attacking cities!" Wei Ju reminded Li Ren.

Even though they annexed Xiong Qi's 70,000-man army and accepted the 50,000 Bingzhou cavalry brought by Cao Shen, their total strength was close to 250,000, but there was one weakness that could not be ignored: they were still not good at tough battles and sieges.

Xiong Qi was stunned. So, the reason why he was being played was that these two guys were not good at siege warfare, so they treated him as a soft persimmon!

But if you think about it carefully, you have never heard that the navy and Bingzhou cavalry are good at attacking cities and seizing land.

It’s not unfair that I was played like this.

Looking at all the armies of the Chu State, it seems that only I will appear in the wild. No matter whether it is the Tenglong Corps or the Leibao Corps, they are now defending the city. The cavalry and the navy cannot play their advantages and will only crash into each other and bleed under the city.

"So, let's go kick the Tenglong Legion's ass!" Li Ren's lips curled up into a smile.

Give up the strength of cavalry to attack the city?
That's not something a famous general can do.

A true general will always fight in the field of his expertise, and even if the environment is not suitable, he will try his best to create such an environment.

"Give up Ruyin and Xiacai?" Cao Shen asked with a frown.

If they go north to kick the Tenglong Legion's ass, Shouchun of Chu will definitely send troops to take back Ruyin and Xiacai.

The reason why Li Ren and Wei Ju were able to easily capture Ruyin and Xiacai was not only because of the sneak attack, but also because Xiong Qi was acting and deliberately took away a large number of defenders from Ruyin and Xiacai, resulting in Xiacai and Ruyin having a lack of manpower and defense.

But once they go north and Shouchun recovers Ruyin and Xiacai, they will definitely re-garrison the two cities with heavy troops, and it will not be so easy to retake the two cities at that time.

"Actually, we can trust the Qin army!" Xiong Qi said after thinking for a while.

Li Xin has 150,000 elite soldiers. Although the Tenglong Corps has been expanded and its strength has reached 100,000, the only elite troops are the original 50,000 Tenglong Corps. Li Ren and Wei Ju looked at each other, and it seemed to be like this.

In times of adversity, you can trust Chu.

Good times...

The State of Chu will tell you what fatherly love is like a mountain... a landslide.

The Qin State is different. You can trust the Qin State no matter in good times or bad.

"Then let's withdraw to Ruyin and Xiacai!" Li Ren finally nodded and agreed to withdraw to Ruyin and Xiacai.

They came to help, not to fight to the death with the State of Chu.

The one that really wanted to destroy Chu was Qin, so there was no need for them to fight on its behalf throughout the process.

If they snatched the military merit that should have belonged to the Qin people, they might even be blamed by the Qin soldiers, which would be a thankless task.

What's more, even if they wanted to kick the Tenglong Legion's ass, they couldn't mobilize many troops.

The navy also had to patrol and blockade the Huai River, so the number of troops that could be mobilized was limited.

The Bingzhou Cavalry also needed to leave behind a lot of people to guard these newly captured Chu soldiers.

By this calculation, although they seem to have an army of nearly 200,000, the number of troops they can actually mobilize is not that many.

"Retreat, retreat!" After thinking it all through, Li Ren directly ordered a retreat to Ruyin and Xiacai.

Cao Shen was the first to report the battle situation here to the Qin army's central army.

In the Qin army's central tent, Li Xin was also waiting for the outcome of this battle.

However, they did not expect that Li Ren and the navy had predicted their prediction and wiped out Xiong Qi's 70,000 reinforcement troops.

Without any worries, Li Xin also started to become arrogant.

Before, they were afraid of a fatal fight with the Tenglong Legion, but were rescued by the 70,000-strong army led by Xiong Qi and were dragged into the vortex of war.

Now, without any worries, they have more room to maneuver.

Therefore, the Qin State launched a full-scale offensive, attacking all the cities along the border of Chu State from the border of Chu State, forcing the Tenglong Legion to move closer to Pingyu and to start a decisive battle with the Tenglong Legion in Pingyu.

"Li Xin is a quick learner of using force to suppress others!"

In fact, the Qin State did not trust the two young generals Li Xin and Meng Yi very much, so it still let the veteran generals such as Wang Jian, Wang Ben, and Yang Duan to support them from behind.

However, after seeing that Li Xin was able to use his strength to force the Tenglong Corps to Pingyu, and after using his advantage in manpower and elite troops to engage in a decisive battle with the Tenglong Corps in Pingyu, Wang Jian could not help but sigh that these newcomers were really going to beat them, the old guys, to death on the beach.

Originally they thought that Li Xin was good at using surprise attacks and military situations.

This time, Li Xin demonstrated a different way of fighting.

"No wonder General Wang likes to use his power to overwhelm others. It feels so good!" Li Xin laughed.

As young people, we all wanted to defeat the majority with the minority and defeat the normal with the unconventional. After all, this kind of record is the easiest to become famous.

For example, Meng Tian became famous in one battle by defeating a larger force with a smaller one.

Therefore, many young and passionate generals like to defeat the larger force with the smaller one and the stronger force with the weak one to show their excellence.

But when Li Xin took advantage of his military strength and elite troops to bully the Tenglong Legion which was weaker than himself.

I just want to say, it’s so cool!
"Besides relying on your superiority in numbers and elite troops, what else are you?"

On the Pingyu battlefield, the young Chu general was very dissatisfied.

He is not afraid of anyone when fighting alone.

But Li Xin refused to fight him with equal forces.
