"After the Battle of Pingyu that day, I decided to take Shouchun, the capital of Chu, but gave up halfway because of Mi Qi, the bastard. This time, I annihilated all the main forces of Chu, and the rest of the Chu State were only a few mobs, so I still wanted to take Shouchun and end the journey to attack Chu as soon as possible." Li Xin drank the fine wine in the wine cup, and his confident smile made some Qin generals feel full of energy!

"Do you go directly to Shouchun?" This was the first time Meng Tian knew about Li Xin's plan, so he did not rush to express his opinion, but carefully considered the implementation of this plan.

Lu Bu was still quietly enjoying his own fine wine and delicacies. Now the strength of the Qin army has already gained an overwhelming advantage in this battle. Even if a "breaking pot" emerged and the Xiang family soldiers led by Xiang Yu could not change the ending of the demise of Chu. After all, the two heroes, Li Xin and Meng Tian, ​​are not comparable to Wang Li, the grandson of the arrogant Wang Jian, in the future.

It was precisely because of this overwhelming advantage that Lu Bu didn't care that the army's next plan was to steadily conquer one city after another, or to lead the powerful army directly to the capital of Chu, Shouchun City, as Li Xin said.

"General Li Xin, the last time the general and Xiang Liang fought with Yanling dozens of miles outside Yanling City, a scout found that a group of elite soldiers with tens of thousands had gone around Yanling from a small path. Fortunately, General Li Xin annihilated the main force of the Chu army of more than 100,000, and this group of Chu army had to retreat.

From this we can see that some elite troops with a small number of people survived. They took advantage of the familiar terrain and kept hiding by our side. They would come up and take a bite when our army was careless. The so-called last general still suggested that the general fight steadily and attack one city by one, so as not to give those villains an opportunity to take advantage of it." Zhang Han, who was ordered to guard Yanling City in the previous battle, took the lead and expressed his views.

After hearing Zhang Han's words, Li Xin nodded but said nothing, but turned his attention to other people. Obviously, Li Xin would not easily change his views because of Zhang Han's words.

Nangong Yan looked at Lu Bu on the head. Seeing that Lu Bu was busy dealing with the delicious food in front of him, he had to stand up and say, "I still agree with General Li Xin's opinion. If one city and one land attack, it would leave time for Chu to summon more soldiers. Even if the newly summoned soldiers were not even a mob, it was possible that these newly recruited soldiers would exchange ten or even twenty in exchange for a Qin soldier in the repeated battles to defend the city. By the time Shouchun was attacked, there were still many people left in the army, and how many of the spirits in the army could be left, I am afraid it would be doubtful."

Although Li Xin still didn't say anything, he nodded repeatedly. It was obvious that Nangong Yan's words were exactly what he meant.

Meng Tian glanced at Zhang Han and Nangong Yan, who were each in their own opinion. The two subordinates of Li Xin represented two opinions. However, when Meng Tian accidentally noticed Lu Bu, the young hero introduced by Li Xin, he was a little surprised that Lu Bu, a person who was regarded as a capable assistant by Li Xin, was only concerned about enjoying his wine and dishes, and had no intention of asking about the army's next strategy. Curious Meng Tian raised the wine cup in his hand and smiled loudly at Lu Bu opposite: "Since Brother Fengxian is the capable assistant of Brother Li Xin, I wonder what Fengxian's meaning is?"

Lu Bu was gnawing on the boiled beef in a small bronze basin. Although there were no condiments such as oil, salt, sauce and vinegar from later generations, the boiled beef was cooked with some plants that Lu Bu didn't know, which made it a different feeling. Hearing that Meng Tian suddenly brought the topic to him, Lu Bu quickly swallowed the beef block stuck in his throat with a sip of wine. In addition, he secretly complained in his heart how General Meng Tian could disturb his food "Yaxing" at this time.

Repentance in his heart, Meng Tian's words had attracted all the eyes of the people in the hall to him. Lu Bu knew that he had to give an explanation: "I agree with General Li Xin's opinion."

"Oh? Can Fengxian tell me why?" Meng Tian asked with a smile on his face.

Lu Bu first burped indecently, and then replied: "The reason is very simple, that is, Shouchun is the weakest now. If you don't take advantage of this opportunity to attack Shouchun, once the King of Chu in Shouchun gathers the defenders from all over the country, and with the solid city of Shouchun and the sufficient food and grass in the city, there will be absolutely no problem to defend it for two or three years.

By then, even if we occupy the rest of the Chu state cities, as long as Shouchun does not fall, the occupied cities will not be settled. In this way, if we do not want the city we have taken away with hardships, we must station some soldiers in each city to defend it. The military power that originally had the advantage will be greatly weakened, and the great cause of attacking Chu will become far away."

Meng Tian nodded with satisfaction. Even Li Xin himself only considered that the army wanted to carry the spirit of the victory after the great victory, but he had never considered it as far-reaching as Lu Bu. Zhang Han, who originally opposed it, also felt that what Lu Bu said was very reasonable, and he changed his point of view and turned to support the plan to directly take Shouchun.

"My brother Meng Tian, ​​do you have anything else to say?" Now only Meng Tian did not express his opinion clearly, so Li Xin asked Meng Tian.

"What General Lu just said is right in my heart, and I have nothing to say anymore." Meng Tian said with a smile.

"In this way, the army will set sail in Shouchun next. Yanling and Yingchen are both our foundations in Chu. People must be sent to guard these two cities. Who should I send you to send?" Li Xin once suffered a loss in such a thing, and this time the army will march into Shouchun again. Li Xin will not take it lightly in any case in preventing such things in the rear.

"I have left 10,000 soldiers in Yingchen City, guarded by General Wang Xi. General Wang Xi has been fighting on the battlefield for decades. Although he is older this year, he is still stronger and stronger. It is absolutely foolproof that he will guard Yingchen City. As for Yanling City, General Zhang Han's previous ability to discover the detoured troops of the Chu army is enough to prove that General Zhang Han is cautious in nature. If he continues to guard Yanling City, he will definitely protect Yanling City." Meng Tian did not know Zhang Han, but since Zhang Han could guard Yanling well before, Meng Tian, ​​the candidate who guarded Yanling this time, naturally chose Zhang Han.

When the Qin army had already gained an absolute advantage, it actually means that they could not achieve any military achievements in the subsequent war. Although Zhang Han still had some complaints in his heart, General Meng Tian recommended him to guard Yanling this time, and Zhang Han was not easy to say something in front of him. So after Li Xin appointed him later, Zhang Han could only take on the task of defending the city helplessly.

After resting in Yanling for another day, under the leadership of Li Xin and Meng Tian, ​​the Qin army marched along the avenue toward the capital of Chu Shouchun. If you want to know what happened next, you will see that you will not tear down again~~
