"Floating bridge?" Mr. Changping asked puzzledly: "Why is there a problem with the floating bridge?"

Xiang Yan pointed to the upper reaches of the Huai River and explained:

"The Qin army only occupied Nanzhao and thought it controlled the upper reaches of the Huai River."

"But there are many tributaries of the Huai River and most of these tributaries are in the hands of our army."

"If our army can intercept these tributaries..."

Mr. Changping was a little confused and asked:

"What does this have to do with the pontoon?"

Xiang Yan continued:

"The pontoon bridge is a raft floating in the water, and then connected by ropes to the wooden piles on both sides of the bank.

"If there is no change in the amount of water in the Huai River, the pontoon will be usable."

"But if the amount of water suddenly decreases..."

So Mr. Changping understood:

"If the amount of water suddenly decreases, the rope will break and the floating bridge will cease to exist?"

Xiang Yan nodded and said:

"Exactly."

"As a result, it will take at least some time for the Qin army to be unable to support each other in Huaibei and Huainan."

"And in Huaibei, there are only 20,000'Liangjun' led by Shen Bing."

Mr. Changping suddenly realized:

"The general wants to assault Shen Bing's'Big Liang Army'?"

Xiang Yan nodded:

"I should contact the king and let him prepare."

"At that time, the Liang army should be caught off guard... not only can he avenge his revenge, but also rescue the king."

Jun Changping was silent for a while, and said:

"It's just that... this'Beam Army' equipped with a wreck seems to be difficult to deal with. Our army has suffered several losses."

Liang Jun’s wreck is no secret to Chu Jun at this time.

At first, when Xiang Liang suffered a loss, it was still fresh. After that, Chu Jun faced off against Liang Jun again and again, and he realized the power of this mess again and again.

But Lord Chang Ping was not worried about the wolf, he was worried that Xiang Yan could rescue King Chu out.

Because it is indeed possible.

The first is the question of contact.

Xiang Yan knew early on that Shouchun would be surrounded by the Qin army, so when he left Shouchun, he brought out many pigeons.

At this time, even if Qin Jun has surrounded Shouchun with no leaks, he can still easily do so with the pigeon flying into the city...

The kind of plot that uses arrows to shoot down the carrier pigeons is only possible in movies and TV.

In fact, the height of the homing pigeons is often outside the range of the crossbow, and I don’t know when there will be homing pigeons. .

The second is that if Xiang Yan’s strategy is adopted, it would be that Shouchun’s 80,000 people and Xiang Yan’s 100,000 people attacked the 20,000 Liang Army of the Shen Bing... This disparity in force is even the Shen Bing’s powerlessness.

As for Wolves, Xiang Yan has his own method to deal with:

"Wolfwood is not a cause for concern, I have made the Qin people's trebuchet."

Mr. Changping asked:

"Use a trebuchet to overcome the wolf?"

Xiang Yan nodded, then used a few bamboo chips to open the battle on the case and said:

"I think the reason why the wolf pit is difficult to overcome is not because of the wolf pit itself but because of the trebuchet."

"Qin's trebuchet is far and accurate, so none of our trebuchets can get close to the enemy."

"In this way, I can only use infantry to attack the wolf."

"While the wolf pit can make the soldiers lost and mixed with the gun array, so our army is completely passive."

This analysis can be said to be three points into the woods.

Wolves really does this function. It has a miraculous effect on the ancient infantry's sea of ​​assault tactics. If the infantry is used to charge and attack, it is almost a line to collide with the gun.

Xiang Yan continued:

"But if we have a catapult like Qin Jun, it will be completely different."

Speaking of Xiang Yan, she put a bamboo chip as a trebuchet.

"The Qin army has a trebuchet, and our army also has it. If the two armies have similar ranges and the Qin army trebuchet is behind the wolf..."

"Then when our trebuchets break through the horror, the Qin Army trebuchets will not be able to reach ours."

Mr. Changping couldn't help but admire:

"The general is justified."

"In this way, it's really nothing to worry about."

"When the wolf is broken, then the Liangjun will not be lucky."

This is easy to understand.

The beam army mainly relies on the wolf to defend, they don't even have armor...In fact, only a part of them have armor.

Some of these armors were captured by the Black Armor before, and the other part was captured during this time.

Although the Qin Law stipulated that the materials seized on the battlefield should be distributed uniformly after being turned over, in fact this law is not so rigid and rigid.

Because the battlefield often has special circumstances.

For example, when Shen Bing and his party seized a large amount of materials in the warehouse when they captured Ruyin, can they also not be used and need to be turned over for unified distribution?

Another example is that the soldiers on the battlefield have lost their swords after a battle. Isn't it possible to exchange for one from the spoils?

This is obviously unreasonable and common sense and will even affect the combat effectiveness of the army.

Especially after a victory, the enemy's body has a large number of equipment that can be reused, if it is not used, it is a fool.

This is the case for the Liang Army, so after a battle, although the force has been reduced by 20,000, the armor and equipment are more and more complete.

It's just that no one is willing to change that side of the vine shield... The point is that it is light and its protection is quite good, which is almost an artifact for infantry.

But even so, if the Liang Jun loses the advantage of the wolf, I am afraid it will still be difficult to resist Xiang Yan's attack, especially Xiang Yan still has absolute military advantage.

But at this time, Lord Changping was in conflict.

He hoped that the Chu army would win this battle, and it would be better to get rid of Shen Bing.

Because at this time Shen Bing has become a stumbling block for him to become the King of Chu.

But he didn't want Chu Jun to win this battle.

Because if the Chu army wins this battle, it means that Xiang Yan can rescue King Chu.

If King Chu Chu was rescued... when and how long would he be King of Chu?

Jun Changping was silent for a while and asked:

"But I don't know if the king would like to leave the city?"

"If the king still can't stick to it, won't I wait for this battle in vain?"

Xiang Yan hesitated and said:

"One time and another time."

"I think the king at this time has understood the situation between ourselves and the enemy."

"As long as I wait to report that the king's various races are unwilling to send troops... the king will know that there is only a dead end to stick to Shouchun."

Xiang Yan is right.

The reason why King Chu Wang was reluctant to leave the city before was because he had a glimmer of hope to attack the Qin army's supply line.

Now this is hopeless, so what are you waiting for in Shouchun?

In addition, being so scared by the Qin Jun surrounded Liushen Wuzhu, who would oppose it when he had the opportunity to escape?

Although Lord Changping didn't dare to show it on his face, he secretly said badly in his heart.

But after thinking about it... it might not be a good thing if Shen Bing can be eliminated in this battle.

Because as long as Shen Bing is there, there is no hope for Chu.

But what if Shen Bing is not there?

Compared with the Chu Wang's humility, Changping Jun was more afraid of Shen Bing.
