At night, Lin Ze selected a few sixth-grade warriors from various families to stay on duty. Their task was to keep a close eye on Chen She's army outside the city and immediately alert them if there was any abnormal movement.
As for the 100,000-strong army, Lin Ze gave them a hearty meal and then sent people to hand out the bedding.
The soldiers who received the quilts were a little confused at first. They turned around and looked at the messy military camp made by Chen She. They had a bad feeling in their hearts. Could it be that they were going to camp today?
You must know that it is the cold and cold season of spring. Some dissatisfied soldiers have begun to make noises, and there are faint signs of mutiny in the army.
When Lin Ze saw this, he couldn't help but frown. He pushed the head of the Meng family who was standing next to him and said, "Find a way to calm them down. I have something to say."
The head of the Meng family immediately shouted: "The military judges of each family will lead people to maintain order. No noise is allowed. Anyone who disobeys the order will be dealt with according to military law."
I saw a group of big men in black plain clothes and holding wooden sticks, walking back and forth along the gaps in the army's ranks, their cold eyes scanning the faces, like a basin of cold water, extinguishing the anger of most of the soldiers.
Compared with the regular army of the Qin State, the military laws of various private armies are more stringent. After all, the families of private army soldiers make a living under the hands of the powerful.
No matter how angry these soldiers were, they completely stopped after the military judge entered the scene.
Looking at the unwilling faces, Lin Ze knew that if this resentment was not eliminated, it would explode sooner or later.
Now that his plan has reached the most critical moment, there is no room for such mistakes. Therefore, after the army calmed down, Lin Ze jumped into the air and said loudly:
"Brothers, please listen to what I have to say. I am the general elected by each family and is responsible for leading everyone to resist the rebels.
"There are still rebels outside the city, and everyone may be in danger at any time. For everyone's safety, please overcome this difficulty."
"I hereby solemnly promise that after this battle, each of the brothers present, whether dead or alive, will be rewarded one hundred gold."
The soldiers just listened to the first two sentences with indifference, but when they heard that there was a reward of one hundred gold, they immediately became excited.
You must know that this is only one hundred gold. With this money, you can greatly improve your family's life. You can even find a remote place and buy more than ten acres of fertile land as a family business and pass it on.
With a bright vision for the future, the resentment in the soldier's heart immediately disappeared without a trace.
There was even an innocent smile on most of the soldiers' faces.
Lin Ze couldn't help but secretly sigh: "The carrot and the stick are indeed a magic weapon for running an army."
Then he struck while the iron was hot and ordered: "The entire army will listen to the order, draw a circle and mark the place where you stand, and lie down on the spot to rest."
"If there is an enemy attack, after hearing the sound of my general's drum beating, just find your original position and stand still."
"Listen carefully, as long as you obey the military orders, I will abide by my promise and give you rewards. If someone disobeys the military orders, instead of receiving rewards, I will chop off his head. Do you understand me clearly?"
Lin Ze almost shouted the last sound.
All the soldiers shouted back: "No".
Then he followed Lin Ze's instructions, drew a circle on the ground, marked out a place, spread the straw mat down, covered him with a quilt, and lay down on it.
Lin Ze's approach was completely helpless. If the army did not rest and maintain sufficient mental and physical strength, it would not be able to maintain its military strength.
But if the army was allowed to rest in camp and Chen She came to attack, Lin Ze would not be sure that he would be able to arrange this unfamiliar army into a military formation and gather military strength in a short period of time.
Only in this way could Lin Ze immediately gather his troops to confront Chen She after the Nighthawks warned him.
What made Lin Ze feel a little relieved was that until dawn, Chen She did not make any move at night.
Early the next morning, a high-pitched warning sound sounded from the city gate and was carried from afar.
Lin Ze, who was sitting cross-legged in the middle of the army and had been meditating all night, immediately stood up, picked up a mallet, and struck hard on a drum standing next to him.
"Dong dong dong", the drums sounded, and the sleeping soldiers first opened their eyes, then remembered Lin Ze's words yesterday, hurriedly found the circle they had drawn, and stood upright.
Lin Ze began to order adjustments to the military formation and gather military strength.
Reality is always beyond expectation. Until Chen She's figure appeared in the sight of the army, Lin Ze still had no time to gather the general's momentum.
It wasn't that Lin Ze moved too slowly, but that Chen She, as a master-level expert, came too fast without anyone stopping him.
Seeing that things were about to get out of control, Lin Ze couldn't help but turn his attention to Li You and Zhao Guang. No matter what, these two people couldn't die now. If they wanted to escape, they had to be taken with them.
Only in this way can there be sufficient reasons to attract Li Si to come and fight Chen She.
Just as Lin Ze was getting ready to attack, Chen She's moving figure suddenly stopped and stood in the air, watching with interest the army's changing formations.
Although Lin Ze couldn't figure out for a while why Chen She acted like this, it didn't stop him from seizing this opportunity and decisively cutting off the idea of escape while quickly adjusting his military formation.
After dozens of breaths, the army took shape and united into one, and Lin Zefang breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Chen She slowly walked up to the air forty meters away from the army, and said with slight appreciation: "Is this the legendary military strength? It's interesting."
After saying that, the Grandmaster's power circulated, condensing into a nearly 40-meter-long sword, and stabbed it gently.
A feeling like a quagmire passed from the tip of the knife to Chen She's hand.
Chen She could even see that the tip of the sword was faintly melting, and he had a clear understanding in his heart. It is said that the military power can resist the grand master. Is it because the military power can dissolve the power of the grand master?
After thinking about it, Chen She gently flipped the knife he held. The big knife broke from the tip and turned into countless small knives, which were evenly distributed over the army, and one fell down from time to time.
Lin Ze looked at Chen She's strange behavior. After thinking about it carefully, he quickly understood. No wonder he stopped suddenly. It turned out that he wanted to find out the secret of the military situation.
Lin Ze began to appreciate Chen She a little. Could he be said to be worthy of being a momentary king? After encountering a force that could resist him, he so quickly came up with the idea of using it for his own purposes.
You must know how furious Chen She was when he was blocked by the army yesterday, and today he expressed such terrifying thoughts.
After observing the military situation for a quarter of an hour, Chen She waved his hand and dispersed the knives floating in the air.
He has been extremely sure that Qin Jun's method can really fight against the Grandmaster.
Although in Chen She's eyes, this method has countless disadvantages, such as difficulty in movement and slow deployment, it still cannot conceal its shining point. This is a method to fight against the master.
The only person who can deal with a grandmaster head-on is the grandmaster. This saying has been passed down for hundreds of years since the end of Wu Qi.
When Qin destroyed the six kingdoms in the past, which of the great masters who died in battle did not die at the hands of those ruthless people from Qin?
Lian Po, the great master of Zhao State, fought hundreds of decisive battles with Wu Anjun of Qin State. In the end, his strength was exhausted and he was too old to recover and died of illness in the army.
Xiang Yan, the great master of the Chu State, fought a decisive battle with Wang Jian, the Marquis of Wucheng of Qin, by the river bank. Due to a mistake in one move, he died at the hands of Wang Jian.
Such examples abound, but I have never heard of a grandmaster dying at the hands of ordinary people.
Chen She believed that the method currently used by the Qin army, if used properly, could kill the master.
For a moment, two thoughts came to Chen She's mind: destroy it or get it.
Destroy it and kill everyone present. The methods used by ordinary people to fight against masters must not remain in the world. Otherwise, for a strong master like himself, the threat will always be with him.
Chen She thought about it and gave up the idea, because killing all the people present did not mean destroying it. Since the Qin army could arrange it once, they could arrange it countless times.
It is impossible for you to see the only thing in the world that is only in the hands of the Qin army.
So Chen She thought over and over again and decided to find a way to get it.
As long as he gets it, Chen She no longer has to worry about Li Si and Zhao Gao who are guarding Chang'an in the Qin State, nor does he need to tie himself up.
If he gets it, Zhang Chu may not be able to dominate the world like Qin.
I saw Chen She fixing his eyes on Lin Ze, and slowly said: "Give me the method of gathering the army, and I will spare your life. If you surrender to me, I will promise you eternal wealth."
Lin Ze shook his head and smiled slightly: "Your Excellency can't even break the military strength, how can you make me surrender? Death threat? If I was really afraid, how could I dare to take action against you in the first place?"
Chen She frowned and said, "How can you surrender?"
Lin Ze rolled his eyes and said, "As long as you break this formation and capture me again, how about surrendering?"
"Are you going to break the formation?" Chen She thought for a moment and replied, "But as long as I give the lonely king some time, I will definitely be able to break your formation."
Chen She had already begun to think about what method he should take to break the formation, whether it was to harass the army endlessly, exhaust it, and then break it in one fell swoop, or to poison it or something like that.
A man who wants to be a king should do whatever it takes. This is what Wu Guang taught him some time ago, and Chen She takes it seriously.
Lin Ze shook his head and said: "It's not enough to break the formation, you have to capture it alive."
Chen She laughed: "As long as the formation is broken, do you think you can escape?"
Lin Ze nodded secretly, I really think so.
When Chen She saw that he was silent, he started to take crazy shots to test the weakness of the formation.
Although he has many dark tricks, Chen She doesn't plan to use them now. First, he feels that doing it too hastily may easily arouse Lin Ze's resentment. What if the other party feels humiliated and commits suicide?
Second, Chen She wanted to further understand the practicality of the formation and see where its limits were.
Such a situation was exactly what Lin Ze wanted, so he was like a professional actor, working hard to cooperate with Chen She's performance.
