After a pause, the King of Qin continued: "The land of Hetao is very important to China. This is a major event that benefits thousands of years. If you want to fight, you must fight well. General Li, what else do you think you need? If you need it, you say."

This sentence was very bold. Li Mu once again admired the great courage of the King of Qin from his heart and said, "Return to the king, there is nothing left. The reason why Li Mu has not taken action yet is waiting for the opportunity.

In the past, there were no roads or ports, and it was very difficult to replenish supplies in the north. Now, with roads and ports, there were sufficient supplies, enough for a war.”

"This is all Mr. Zhou's contribution." King Qin praised: "If it weren't for Mr. Zhou's first proposal, the supply in the north would still be a problem, and it would be really difficult to enter the grassland."

Li Mu agreed with the words of the King of Qin and said, "What the King said is very true."

Zhou Chongqian said: "The king has given me a prize and has contributed to China. Zhou Chong's duty is just doing what a Chinese citizen should do, and he dare not be praised by the king."

"It is rare for Mr. Zhou to make contributions but not arrogant." The King of Qin praised him very much and said, "Some people are talented and like to make contributions. But they are proud of themselves and think they are unable to afford it. Such people should learn from Mr. Zhou."

Zhou Chong said humbly again, saying, "General Li, Zhou Chong has a saying that he doesn't know whether he should speak or not."

Li Mu knew that Zhou Chong had a lot of tricks and tricks, so he would definitely remind him of such important things and hurriedly said: "Mr. Zhou has something to say, please speak, Li Mu should listen carefully."

"The general is so serious.

"Zhou Chong reminded: "The Hetao grassland area is convenient for cavalry to penetrate and detour in depth. If General Li can invest a large number of cavalry in this battle and use the cavalry's maneuverability to attack the Xiongnu camps and leaders, it will be twice the result with half the effort."

The reason why Zhou Chong said this was because he was worried that Li Mu was limited to the military theory that the cavalry had not yet dominated at that time.

Instead of using cavalry in large quantities; furthermore, Zhou Chong wanted to use this battle to provide Qin with examples of large-scale cavalry legion mobile combat, which would play an extremely important role in future military innovation.

The cavalry's transition from subordinate status to the dominant force in war will be in the near future, that is, the reign of Emperor Wu of Han. It was Emperor Wu of Han who activated Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, who were good at using large-scale cavalry corps to fight, and finally defeated the Huns.

Wei Qing captured Heshuo and used tens of thousands of elite cavalry to conduct long-distance attacks from thousands of miles away. If this tactic was applied to the Qin Dynasty, it would be very advanced and play a very important role in defeating the Huns.

As soon as Zhou Chong finished speaking, the King of Qin immediately said: "Mr. Zhou's words reminded me that the role of cavalry has been well verified when they attacked Handan. But that was in the Central Plains, not the prairie, which was unobstructed and wider.

It is also more suitable for cavalry combat. General Li, do you need cavalry? Do you need horses?"

Li Mu did not rush to answer, but frowned and thought. After a while, Li Mu stood up suddenly and said, "Mr. Zhou's reminder is right. If Mr. Zhou hadn't reminded him, Li Mu would have made a big mistake.

Li Mu originally thought that this battle was dominated by infantry and cavalry as the auxiliary, but it seemed that this would not work. Li Mu decided to use cavalry as the main and infantry as the auxiliary, and use the cavalry's high-speed maneuverability to conduct large-scale intersecting and siege and detour.

King, Li Mu needs 30,000 cavalry and 50,000 war horses. Can the King give it to Li Mu?"

"Okay, General Li, you're really a lion's mouth." The King of Qin smiled and said, "No problem. I'll follow you. But, let's talk about it first. After capturing Hetao, you have to give me more horses and more cavalry."

Li Mu said confidently: "No problem."

Zhou Chong reminded again: "General Li should pay attention to using crossbows more often. The Huns have grown up on horseback since childhood and can live their lives on horseback, but they are not invincible. They also have their own shortcomings.

That is, China's technology is too difficult for them. They would rather bend their horses than learn the technology of the Central Plains and use the technology of the Central Plains to innovate tactics.

General Li makes good use of our equipment to better land than the Huns, and it will be no problem to defeat the Huns. "As for the deployment of troops and tactical use, Li Mu is an expert, so Zhou Chong won't remind him.

Li Mu was furious and said, "Mr. Zhou's words can be said to Li Mu. If we talk about riding and archery alone, the people in the Central Plains are far inferior to those in the Huns.

However, China's technology is much more developed than them, and our crossbow range is much further than that of the Huns. In addition, the Wangshan on the crossbow makes it more accurate. If the Huns want to defeat us with their bows and arrows, it is tantamount to touching stones with eggs.

"Wangshan wants to be the sight of the ground on the gun now.

These words are incisive. In order to deal with the nomadic peoples skilled in the north, crossbows have been developed in large numbers. The crossbow weapon has played a very important role in the peace of the northern border of China.

Meng Tian used a large number of crossbows when he recovered the Hetao area, and the Huns thought that the ground bows in their hands were enough to stand invincible. When they faced Meng Tian's army and suffered a great loss, they realized that their bows were far worse than those of the Qin army. The Qin army's crossbows were shooting farther and more accurate than their bows.

It was natural that the Huns, who were later called "guerrilla warfare experts", withdrew from the Hetao land.

The King of Qin smiled and said, "General Li said that if there is less, you still need a large number of Zhou Gong crossbows.

This is easy to deal with. Everyone in your army has a Zhou Gong crossbow. When they encounter the Huns, they shoot arrows. Is it because the Huns' bows are powerful or the Zhou Gong crossbow? General Li, what do you think?"

Li Mu didn't think about it and said, "The King is the Holy Ming! In that battle, Meng Tian defeated the elite cavalry of the Huns with infantry because he used Zhou Gong crossbow. With Zhou Gong crossbow, he was not afraid that the Huns would run to the sky."

The King of Qin laughed and said, "Then I will wait for your good news."

All the people here are talented people. Although Han Fei and Li Si do not take charge of the army, they are not that they have no research on military affairs. Naturally, they can hear the benefits of handling this. It can be said that if they really need to fight according to this method of fighting, the Huns are really unstoppable, and they are all unlimited to be happy.

Li Mu said confidently: "Please rest assured, Mr. Li Mu will never humiliate the king's order."

The King of Qin said with great peace of mind: "With General Li standing in the north, I am worried."

Li Mu sighed: "The king has won the award. If Mr. Zhou hadn't reminded him, Li Mu would have made a mistake. The battle in Hetao would have been much more difficult. This trip to Xianyang is worth Li Mu."

The King of Qin nodded and said, "Mr. Zhou's ideas are always so novel. Not only do you feel this, but I think so.

There are many things that I get inspiration from Mr. Zhou. If Mr. Zhou did not give me inspiration, I would make many mistakes. If there is no worries about the north, I can focus on the south. You all talk about how to destroy Chu.
