Chapter 589

The opponent is Li Xin?

In the council hall, all the important figures of Bashu were gathered here at this moment, and each one would be an indispensable key talent for the future of Bashu!

In terms of military generals, there were Zhao Yun, Wei Zhuang, and Han Xin.

Well, it looked Wu Li Ke there were few, but it was not a big problem; each one was a top expert in their respective fields.

And as for civil officials, there were Zhang Liang, Guo Jia, Master Zhuge Liang, and Pang Tong.

Of course, Yu Ji, whom Qin Mu loved most, was also in the council hall, and the camp Yu Ji belonged to was that of the military generals!

Actually, Qin Mu did not bring Yu Ji here to really treat her as a military general, but wanted her to be more exposed to these things.

After all, there would be a day when he would not be in Bashu, and at that time, only Yu Ji could preside over the overall situation.

As for Lu Bu and Pan Feng, one was far away at the seaside and the other was far away in Xianyang; clearly, it was impossible for them to come to attend this meeting.

"According to reliable information, the enemy's general this time will be Li Xin. Do you all have any opinions?"

Qin Mu sipped his tea and said. He clearly did not expect that it would be Li Xin leading the army.

That's right, it was that Li Xin. Ever since he returned in defeat from attacking Chu, Li Xin had been extremely depressed and listless every day.

And he had not been trusted by Qin Shi Huang, and he hadn't even been allowed to fight a single battle.

And now, his own Emperor actually trusted him, letting him lead the army again, taking one hundred thousand men to Bashu to hunt down an unknown unit.

Li Xin felt both happy and amused in his heart.

He had actually been reduced to only being able to hunt down a unit that didn't leave its home, and he had to use one hundred thousand men!

At that time, Li Xin only wanted to lead fifty thousand men, but the Emperor insisted on stuffing one hundred thousand troops to him. This could not help but make Li Xin feel Wu Li Ke he was using a butcher's knife to kill a chicken!

His ambitions were not here; he wanted to go to the old land of Western Chu to kill all those guys who had once humiliated him!

Unfortunately, he could only think about these thoughts in his heart and could not say them out loud at all.

Li Xin never felt that Qin Mu's troops could be very powerful; he only felt that it was just a rumor.

It was just that Meng Tian was incompetent!

However, what Li Xin did not know was that Qin Shi Huang had actually never trusted Li Xin from the beginning.

He never thought that Li Xin could return in a great victory; he would be very satisfied if he could bring sixty thousand soldiers back alive.

That's right, Ying Zheng had only treated Li Xin as vanguard cannon fodder from the beginning.

Qin Shi Huang only wanted to use Li Xin to test the depth of that mysterious unit in Bashu. He also knew that it would be winter soon after marching there.

At that time, there were too many uncertain factors in fighting a war. Ying Zheng did not want to take risks. After Li Xin finished testing, he would let Wang Tang Jian fight again to let him wipe out this mysterious unit in Bashu.

Perhaps Bashu was very close to Xianyang, but the road was not easy to travel. It is said that the road to Shu is difficult, more difficult than ascending to heaven.

It is conceivable that the furthest distance in the world is that this road is not easy to walk.

If it were any other place, one could arrive in three or four days by riding fast horses.

But Bashu?

Don't even think about arriving without a few months.

Not to mention this, after Qin Mu finished speaking, the people below were discussing in whispers.

Without exception, they were all guessing the purpose of Great Qin, and only a few military generals were dazed there.

No, it should be only Zhao Yun and Wei Zhuang.

Yu Ji was staring at Qin Mu and acting infatuated at this time, while Han Xin was discussing with Zhang Liang next to him.

The three of them, Master Zhuge Liang and the others, were also discussing together. They were people from later generations, and many things were not easy to say in front of Zhang Liang and Han Xin.

But without exception, they all felt that this battle would definitely be won!

The reason was nothing else; they really looked down on Li Xin a bit.

"Quiet." Qin Mu suddenly said. He felt that if he didn't call for a stop, his ears would be blown deaf by them.

"In this great battle, Han Xin will be the commander-in-chief, leading five hundred thousand new recruits to see some blood! Everyone else will obey Han Xin's arrangements and follow Han Xin's orders.

Any objections?"

After Qin Mu finished speaking, he looked around and found that everyone was shaking their heads to indicate no objections, and he could not help but feel a little satisfied.

And at this moment, he suddenly saw that Zhang Liang on the side was actually nodding?

"Zifang, do you have anything to say?" Qin Mu asked as if he didn't care at all.

Zhang Liang hurriedly stood up, gave Han Xin, who was sitting opposite, an apologetic look, and then said.

"My lord, this is Han Xin's first time commanding a battle. Is it a bit inappropriate to hand over five hundred thousand new recruits to him Wu Li Ke this?

Moreover, with five hundred thousand new recruits, it seems our weapons are not enough for five hundred thousand, and even ten thousand is a bit reluctant?"

Facing Zhang Liang's questioning, Qin Mu just smiled. Coming from later generations, he knew how powerful Han Xin was.

And that Li Xin was so incompetent, arrogant, looked down on everyone, and felt that everything was easy, yet his own strength was not very good.

.......Seeking flowers...0

Not to mention Han Xin, even Zhao Yun could suppress the opponent and fight, right?

Unfortunately, Zhang Liang was destined not to know these things. Seeing that Zhang Liang was also for the good of Bashu, Qin Mu did not care too much, but just said casually.

"You will know when the time comes."

After Qin Mu finished speaking, he hurriedly changed the subject, so as not to make the atmosphere awkward for everyone after continuing to talk.

"Which city will the opponent attack first? What do you think?" Facing Qin Mu's new question, everyone did not discuss it this time.

Instead, everyone frowned and pondered. Clearly, this question was a bit difficult.

The Imperial Capital certainly couldn't be attacked, so only the four small cities in the southeast, west, and north were left, and the West City and South City, which were closest to the Qin Army, were most likely to be used as attack targets.

The opponent had one hundred thousand men, and they had five hundred thousand men. Clearly, it was impossible for them to divide the five hundred thousand men into five teams, with one hundred thousand new recruits in each city to defend the city.

That would only lead to them being defeated one by one!

So how to send troops to defend the city was very important!

"I will go to sit in the West City!" Zhao Yun volunteered directly at this time.

Clearly, he also knew that the West City and South City were more likely to be attacked.

"I will go to the South City." Wei Zhuang also followed up and said. The two most dangerous cities were contracted by them.

The remaining North City and East City, among which the North City was perhaps the least likely to be attacked except for the Imperial Capital, because it was near the Imperial Capital!

So this city was handed over to Yu Ji, and it was equipped with two hundred thousand new recruits!

Everyone had a tacit understanding of this. They all thought that Han Xin did this because he wanted to please his lord.

That's right, the one who made this decision was Han Xin.

North City two hundred thousand new recruits, South City fifty thousand, West City fifty thousand, East City two hundred thousand!

That's right, East City two hundred thousand new recruits. According to priority, East City should be the third choice for the attack target.

And Han Xin directly equipped it with two hundred thousand new recruits, and Han Xin himself went to sit there.

Qin Mu seemed to understand his thoughts a little, but others might not necessarily understand. Perhaps Guo Jia or someone Wu Li Ke that understood.

But only Zhang Liang, who joined earlier than Han Xin, could be called a senior, and he was well-read in poetry and books, but he still could not understand Han Xin's purpose in doing this.

So the officialdom greenhorn Zhang Liang stood out again.

"Why arrange it this way? What if they attack the West City? Wouldn't we lose a city directly?"
