At this moment, Meng Tian mentioned Zhao Shu.

Because Gongzi Shu has always been best at attacking with cavalry. In Zhao Di, he used powerful detours to conquer Handan in one battle.

Destroying Chu was a key battle for Qin.

It's not that Meng Tian doesn't desire military success. As a general, he is naturally not afraid of attacking, but for the sake of Da Qin and victory, he has to do this.

If Zhao Shu were to attack, the probability of success would be far higher than his.

Hearing this, Wang Jian nodded: "You are right. When it comes to long-distance raids, none of our generals in the Qin Dynasty, except Li Xin, can match the master's skills."

"However, Gongzi Shu is in Pingyu at the moment. The city of Pingyu has been destroyed. He will cooperate with me to encircle Xiang Yan."

"Even at a critical moment, Chen troops will be deployed in Huainan to cut off Xiang Yan's retreat!"

"This time when going south, Gongzi Shu needs to conquer the Yue, so he needs to get along with the soldiers of the army. Only in this way can he defeat the Yue in one battle."

"promise."

Nodding in agreement, Meng Tian said in a deep voice: "General, don't worry, I will definitely complete the mission."

"Um!"

Nodding, Wang Jian smiled and said, "Of course I believe you, so I leave this matter to you!"

Watching Meng Tian leave, Wang Jian's eyes flashed with light. He knew in his heart that Meng Tian was the most suitable person to cooperate with him because of his stability.

However, Gongzi Shu's use of troops is too crazy. Once he puts Gongzi Shu in the dark, the King of Chu may have been defeated by Gongzi Shu before the war here begins.

The Chu land is vast, with countless deep mountains and dense forests. Once Xiang Yan leads his Chu army into pieces and flees into the mountains and forests, even if he captures the Chu land for a while, it will cause endless disasters.

Qin Wangzheng gave him such great trust, so he naturally wanted to fight with all his strength to level the Chu land.

With lightning flashing in his mind, Wang Jian turned towards Sima of the central army and said: "When we take the Chu land, report it to the king truthfully. Report it every three days. There must be no mistakes!"

"promise."

After nodding in agreement, Sima of the Central Army hesitated for a moment and said to Wang Jian: "General, is it too frequent to report once every three days?"

"Our army is currently on the defensive, and there may not even be a battle in January!"

Hearing this, Wang Jian shook his head: "This battle is different from the past. The entire country's 600,000 troops are in the hands of one man."

"Of course I have to report everything so that the king will be well aware of the war in Chu."

Qin Wangzheng had great trust in him, not only entrusting him with an army of 600,000, but also gave him the Qin Wang Sword.

Naturally, Qin Wangzheng also needs to be reassured.

If this battle were to be fought by him alone, with Meng Tian as his deputy, Wang Jian would naturally be able to fight once every ten days.

However, this time when he went south to destroy Chu, he was the main general and his deputy was Gongzi Shu.

A young master from the royal family of the Great Qin Dynasty had great military exploits. In addition, he was a general of the Great Qin Dynasty and commanded the entire country's army.

Moreover, this young master had good relations with both the civil and military officials of the Qin Dynasty. He was a civil servant from Shanglin New City, so he would naturally be grateful to Zhao Shu.

In this way, the combination of the two of them can completely shake up the situation of the Qin Dynasty.

Under such circumstances, with Wang Jian's vigilance, he naturally wanted to report everything to the King of Qin.

.........

Ping Yu.

In the shogunate, Zhao Shu looked solemn.

"What are the casualties of our troops in this battle?"

"Sir, our army lost five thousand soldiers in this battle, two thousand were seriously injured, and twenty thousand were slightly injured."

Zhao Beichen turned to Zhao Shu and said, "The seriously injured soldiers have been rushed to the field hospital. The lightly injured soldiers are being treated by military doctors along with their wounds."

"Pingyu's defenders were 100,000 strong, 50,000 were beheaded, and the rest surrendered to our army!"

After hearing this, Zhao Shu pondered for a long time and said to Li Xu: "It's not a problem to keep these 50,000 soldiers."

"Instruct Li Xin to personally lead 10,000 cavalry and escort 50,000 surrendered soldiers northward, and hand them over to Shaofu Zhang Han."

"Then immediately go south and return to Jian!"

"promise."

Having said this, Zhao Shu turned to Zhao Beichen and said, "Zhao Beichen will accompany you and learn from General Li Xin."

"General Li Xin is good at cavalry."

"promise."

"At the same time, notify Zhang Cang and Jiang Xin to send officials to Pingyu to stabilize people's livelihood."

"promise."

Military orders were issued one after another, and the entire Pingyu quickly started to move.

"Sir, Yin Gong has received news that Lord Changping went south and defected to Xiang Yan."

At this time, Yinwei walked into the shogunate and said to Zhao Shu: "Now that Xiang Yan is dissatisfied with the King of Chu and the senior ministers, a conflict between the king and his ministers is almost going to happen."

Hearing this, Zhao Shu stared at the map in the shogunate and combined various information to deduce the battle.

"Huaibei, Huainan, the King of Chu bears the cud, Xiang Yan, Lord Changping..."

After a long time, a glint appeared in Zhao Shu's eyes, and he said in a solemn tone: "Sending a letter to General Shang, I suspect that Xiang Yan intends to depose King Chu of Chu."

"Then support Mi Qi, Lord of Changping!"

"In the previous battle, Xiang Yan's elite troops did not show up, and all they used were tribal troops."

"Fighting to the death in Huaibei and sticking to Ruyin is just an illusion."

"Xiang Yan's biggest purpose may be to retreat from Huainan, use Huainan as his base, use the Xiang family's elite army and the Chu Kingdom's boatmen, and use Huaibei as the battlefield to engage in a protracted war with our army!"

"Once there is a change in the state of Chu, it will be the best time for our army to completely annex Huaibei and send troops to Huainan. It is also the best time to swallow up Xiang Yan."

"promise."

The clerk in charge of recording handed the silk book to Zhao Shu. Zhao Shu sealed the letter, sealed it in a copper tube, and gave it to Yinwei.

"Go there in person and hand the silk book to the general as quickly as possible!"

"promise."

Yinwei left in a hurry. At this time, Fan Zeng spoke up and said, "Sir, the Xiang family's roots in Chu are basically in Jiangdong."

"Once the master's conjecture is established, then Xiang Yan can only complete it by uniting the Jiangdong clans and the Qu clan."

"Besides, now that Pingyu has been conquered by the young master, Xiang Yan's strategy in Huaibei is almost in ruins."

"Once the general mobilizes his troops, he will definitely take Huaibei with thunderous force."

Hearing this, Zhao Shu glanced at Fan Zeng, nodded, and said: "The general is cautious in nature. Destroying Chu is related to the overall situation of Qin's unification of the world."

"It would be best for Xiang Yan to die in Ruyin!"

"In the current situation, it is difficult for Xiang Yan to integrate the Chu Kingdom."

"Unless the King of Chu is carrying the cud and wants to die!"

At this point, Zhao Shu changed his subject and turned to Fan Zeng, saying: "Sir, use the power of the twelve merchants to spread the news that Changping Jun Mi Qi is hiding in Xiang Yan's army to the Chu capital."

"Three days later, the news that Xiang Yan planned to depose King Chu of Chu, kill the senior ministers, and support Lord Changping was spread to the capital of Chu."

"Perhaps Xiang Yan has not made a decision yet, and there is a conflict between heaven and man in his heart, so I will help him!"
