Chapter 199(1/2)

199 The house is leaking and raining overnight

【Please bookmark and subscribe!】

In Shouchun City, Jiujiang County, the main force of the Han army led by Liu Bang had retreated here.

"What? The tyrant Qin and Han Xin went to war?"

When Liu Bang received the news in Shouchun, he was also shocked.

Liu Bang himself did not expect that Xu Feng would start a war with Han Xin so soon.

"Who made the move first?"

"Return to the king, our people are the first to fight back.

At this time, the tyrannical Qin army had already conquered Daliang and was attacking eastward. Han Xin had already led the army to fight."

A Han general replied.

When Liu Bang received this news in Shouchun, it was already March 13, more than one day later than Han Xin's message.

Even Liu Bang's people only knew the movements of the Qin army in Luoyang, and Liu Bang didn't even know the Qin army in North Handan and Yan.

"Haha, fight, it's better to fight both sides."

Liu Bang laughed gloatingly.

Liu Bang naturally hoped that when Han Xin and Xu Feng fought, he could reap the benefits of the fisherman.

Xiang Yu, who had been traumatized, no longer poses a threat. In Liu Bang's view, he can only survive in Pengcheng.

If the Qin army and Qi army were allowed to kill each other, he would stand up and clean up the mess and unify the world.

Liu Bang thought it was quite beautiful, but Chen Ping, who was standing by, always felt something was wrong.

"King, have you sent someone back to the city capital? I reminded Zifang and asked him to be careful of the Han army."

Chen Ping said to Liu Bang.

"What? Are you worried that the Qin army will also launch an attack on us? How dare you win Hu Hai be so arrogant?"

Liu Bang disagreed.

Chen Ping was told by Liu Bang, and he felt that he might be too careless.

No matter how arrogant Xu Feng was, they didn't think that Xu Feng had the courage to go to war with Han Xin and Liu Bang's armies at the same time.

After all, Liu Bang and Chen Ping both misevaluated the strength of the Qin army at this time.

At this time, the Qin Dynasty had completely transitioned from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age, which was a technological revolution.

Every technological revolution is not a small matter for the improvement of civilian productivity and military strength.

At this time, the craftsmen of the Qin Dynasty had even begun to imitate the armor of the "Xiongate Iron Cavalry", and the iron armored infantry of the Qin Dynasty were even more like ten.

But there were not only two or three thousand people before, but there were as many as tens of thousands of iron armored infantry trained in Yan land.

In order to cover up, the Qin army has never used these iron armor from Xianyang to Yan land, and it is at this time.

"Besides, isn't Zifang still in Shu? If Zifang is in Shu, Shu is as solid as a soup."

This is also an important reason why Liu Bang is extremely at ease about his hometown.

Liu Bang believed in Zhang Liang, which was similar to Xu Feng trusting in Guo Jia.

It’s a pity that Zhang Liang is not a god, he is just smarter than ordinary people.

"This time, it is always a hidden danger that the failure to break through Pengcheng and failing to completely destroy Xiang Yu.

Although Guan Ying captured Jiangdong, no one of the great wealthy families in Jiangdong had surrendered yet.

Therefore, let’s settle Jiangdong first and gain a firm foothold in Jiangnan. We must not let Xiang Yu take back Jiangdong.

Chen Ping, the Japanese king of Ming led his troops to Jiangdong. I left you 50,000 troops in Shouchun to monitor Xiang Yu's movements in the north.

If Xiang Yu tries to go south, you must stop him, and I will lead the army back to the rescue immediately."

Liu Bang looked at Chen Ping and said.

"No." Chen Ping replied.

Liu Bang did not intend to get involved in the war between the Qin army and the Qi army. He wanted to take this opportunity to develop.

It’s a pity that Xu Feng would not give him this opportunity.

At this time, the Qin army led by Wang Yong had already launched an offensive against the Han army in northern Sichuan in Hanzhong.

However, Zhang Liang, who was in charge of the city capital, was confident that he could use the steep terrain of northern Sichuan to block the Qin army going south.

Therefore, Zhang Liang at least sent someone to notify Liu Bang, but had no intention of asking for help.

Zhang Liang didn't want Liu Bang to waste this opportunity to occupy the entire Jiangnan.

Once this time Liu Bang succeeds.

At that time, Liu Bang's territory will cover the entire Chu State before, Bashu, which originally belonged to the Qin Dynasty to the west, and Wu and Yue to the east, and most of China will be in his hands.

At the end of March, Xu Feng led 80,000 Qin troops to attack from Daliang to the east, attacking the cities and villages all the way, without anyone to stop him, and attacked the Dingtao area before he encountered a Qi army's obstacle.

"Han Xin is here."

When Xu Feng saw this elite Qi army, he knew that Han Xin had arrived.

That night, the Qin army camp was attacked by the Qi army. Fortunately, Guo Jia had already made arrangements, and the Qi army's night attack did not succeed.

In early April, Xu Feng asked the Qin army to attack Dingtao, and Dingtao was in danger, but he did not see the main force of the Qi army appear for a long time.

This made Xu Feng very afraid and worried that Han Xin would have a conspiracy.

"Fengxiao, Han Xin's main force of Qi's army has not appeared for a long time, I am uneasy!"

Xu Feng said to Guo Jia.

"Don't worry, your Majesty, Han Xin will show up, and Dingtao will not be willing to throw it away."

Guo Jia said confidently.

Mainly, Guo Jia was sure of the importance of Dingtao to Han Xin.

On April 3, the Qin army invaded Dingtao, and finally Han Xin led the main force of the Qi army to appear.

Rumble!

A large group of Qi cavalry came from south of Dingtao.

To the north of Dingtao is the Ji River, and there is no cavalry charge at all.

Therefore, Guo Jia predicted that the Qi cavalry would appear in the south.

Therefore, more than 20,000 Qin cavalry had been waiting for the battle in the south, and was commanded by the most warlike Lu Bu.

"Care with me!"

When Lu Bu saw the Qi cavalry coming, he immediately led the Qin cavalry to charge without hesitation.

Nearly 40,000 cavalrymen from both sides fought fiercely on this field.

At the same time, the Qi army had been crossing the river from the north to the Jishui River, and unexpectedly appeared in the rear of the northwest direction of the Qin army, and attacked the Qin camp fiercely.

Guo Jia did not expect Han Xin's move.

The Qi army, which attacked the Qin army camp again, went to burn the Qin army's food and grass.

This time, the Qin army took the initiative to launch a war, caught the Qi army off guard, and made Han Xin passive everywhere as soon as he came up.

Even if Han Xin is a "soldier immortal", it will be very difficult to fight against an unfavorable start.

Therefore, Han Xin wanted to burn the Qin army's food and grass, delay the Qin army's attack time, and give him more time to prepare for the response.

"Report, Your Majesty, the Qi army attacked the camp, General Huang asked for help."

A Qin soldier came to report to Xu Fenghui.

"Damn it, how could Han Xin transfer his troops from the north of Jishui so easily? Why didn't we find it before?"

Xu Feng did not expect that after Han Xin failed to attack the Qin camp at night, he chose to attack the camp even though he knew that the Qin army had strengthened its defense against the camp.

But this time, Han Xin's methods are even more clever.

Huang Zhong had more than 10,000 Qin troops in his hands and stayed in the camp. He still sent people to ask Xu Feng for help, which shows that the war on Huang Zhong was mostly very critical.

But now, Qin soldiers have already attacked Dingtao. As long as he is given half a day, Dingtao will inevitably be captured by the Qin army.

Now let Xu Feng give up and withdraw his troops to return to the camp, Xu Feng is unwilling to accept it.

"Your Majesty, let General Jin lead three thousand iron armored soldiers back.

I believe that with General Huang's ability, he has three thousand iron armored soldiers to support him and protect our food and supplies."

Guo Jia said.

“Well, that’s it.

Jin Da, go and order three thousand iron armored soldiers to support General Huang.”
