"Haha, General Meng Tian, you're finally here!”
Li Xin enthusiastically went out of the city to welcome them, pulling Meng Tian and saying,""If they still don't come, I can't wait to send troops to attack Ying Du.”
Meng Tian's face was full of resentment." Chen Ying has already gathered no less than 300,000 Chu troops. General, are you really confident that you can break through the city with 200,000 troops alone?"”
Seeing the unhappiness on Meng Tian's face, plus the fact that she had not sent the news to Chen Ying after taking down Yanling, Li Xin knew that Meng Tian was complaining.
He chuckled and defended himself." I was just joking. General Meng Tian, please don't take it to heart. How could we not have your help when we attacked Ying Du?" Without the general's help, it will be difficult for me to take down Ying Du alone.”
"Humph!"
Meng Tian snorted coldly, and the resentment on her face dissipated a little.
"General Meng Tian, are you angry with me?" Li Xin continued.”
"General, you may not know this, but it's not that I didn't report the victory to you after taking down Yanling, but that I wanted to attack Chengfu before Xiang Yan's main force realized it.”
"Even the good news sent to Xianyang was sent after I attacked Xiafu. General Meng Tian, you must understand me and not bear a grudge!”
Seeing that Li Xin's voice was full of emotion and his words were reasonable, the resentment on Meng Tian's face disappeared.
"Alright, since that's the case, I won't blame you. In order to ensure that we can take down Ying Du in one fell swoop, look who I brought to help you?”Meng Tian turned to the side and made way for the person behind her.
"Haha, General Li Xin, how have you been?”That person cupped his hands towards Li Xin with a face full of goodwill.
"General Wang Ben, why are you here?" Li Xin quickly returned the greeting.”
It was Wang Ben, the son of Wang Jian!
"Isn't General still in the Land of Wei taking over the other cities? Why did he come to Father Cheng with Meng Tian?”
Li Xin didn't expect Wang Ben's arrival.
There was no mention of Wang Ben in the historical records of the war against Chu.
Before he led his army to Chu, Li Xin knew that Wang Ben was still in Wei to deal with the aftermath of the war and to take back the cities that Wei had yet to surrender.
The mission was easy, but it would take a lot of time.
There were 100,000 Qin troops stationed in the land of Wei, which was why Ying Zheng was more inclined to Li Xin's strategy of only needing 200,000 troops to conquer Chu.
" Meng Tian sent news of Chen Ying back to Xianyang," Wang Ben explained." His Majesty sent me an urgent order to ensure that General Li Xin would not have any worries. He ordered me to put down my work and rush to Chen Ying to help Meng Tian defend the city.”
" When I arrived, the Chu army had already retreated, so Meng Tian asked me to help you," Wang Ben continued," I brought 80,000 elite soldiers from the Great Qin Empire, and Meng Tian's remaining 20,000 soldiers, making a total of 100,000 soldiers. I'm handing them over to General Li Xin.”
" Alright," Meng Tian nodded and said," Wang Ben and I will be your deputy generals for the attack on Ying Du. We will follow your orders."”
"What ability does Li Xin have…"
"Alright! " Between us, there is no need to be so pretentious. This is also what the King wants." Without waiting for Li Xin to pretend to decline, Meng Tian stopped him and sized him up." You brat, when did you become so glib?"”
"Hurry up and explain to us the plan of the ruined Ying Du. If there is anything inappropriate, we can discuss it.”Meng Tian reminded.
"What other plans do you have?”Li Xin said casually," Brothers, let's enter the city first.”
Meng Tian's intimate tone made Li Xin address the two of them more casually.
Previously, when they were in Xianyang City, the relationship between the three of them was very harmonious.
Before the war, they all called each other brothers.
After his soul passed through Li Xin's body, he was naturally very clear about the memories left behind by the previous Li Xin.
Wang Ben frowned.
From Li Xin's words, he could hear the contempt.
It seemed that he would have to ask this kid later. Ying Du was the capital of Chu State. The city guards and Xiang Yan's main force were a force that could not be underestimated.
In Wang Ben's eyes, Li Xin would definitely be hurt by his contempt for Ying Du.
Could it be that this kid had defeated Yanling and Chengfu, and was a little arrogant?
The blow to his self-confidence was small, but once Xiang Yan seized the opportunity to lead the Chu army out of the city to counterattack, the advantage he had previously gained would be gone.
The three of them entered Cheng Fu City together.
After they sat down, Wang Ben said,""Li Xin, don't underestimate the enemy!"
"Right now, our army has the advantage and has taken down two grain storage areas in Yanling City. The Chu army will not be able to hold on for long with only Ying Du's grain storage.”
"The best plan is to surround them and not attack.”
"It won't be long before the King of Chu, Fu Chu, opens the city and surrenders due to the lack of food. No matter how capable Xiang Yan is, he won't be able to turn the situation around!”
Wang Ben's analysis revealed his thoughts.
As the son of Wang Jian, Wang Ben inherited Wang Jian's steady and conservative fighting style.
In his view, the Qin army had already gained the upper hand. They only needed to secure victory and destroy Chu.
" Wang Ben is right," Meng Tian nodded and said," This is the safest strategy. What do you think, Li Xin?"”
"Brother Wang Ben's plan is a good one, but I don't think we need to waste so much time.”
The moment Li Xin opened his mouth, the two of them frowned.
"Our army is now unstoppable," he continued."It's a good opportunity to advance triumphantly and expand our victory.”
"Right now, we only need to break through Ying Du to capture King Fu Chu and completely destroy Jing Chu. Why not take the opportunity to quickly break through?”
