After breaking through the siege overnight, Zhong Liwu ran eastward for more than fifty miles and found that there was no Qin army chasing and killing, so he stopped, and after a short rest, he ordered the army to hurry to the direction of Xingyang to report to the major general and military division, and the Qin army was prepared.

Long Ji's army was six hours later than Zhong Liwu, and since his mission was to meet the reinforcements that might come out of Xingyang, he kept an eye on Xingyang's movements all the way.

On the night of the second day after Zhong Li's army was defeated, he finally found that there were countless torches in the direction of Xingyang, and the army rushed towards Aocang.

Long immediately ordered the whole army to start preparing for war according to the established plan. When Long Ji's rear army saw the torches of the Qin army entering the range of their own army, they immediately fired thousands of arrows, only to hear the screams of the opponent's Qin army in the array, and it seemed that they were still in chaos, and immediately launched a charge to kill.

At this time, the Qin army's torch team, which stretched for several miles, began to rush towards Ao Cang, bypassing the dragon and the large army formation on both sides. Long He looked at the movements of the Qin army, although he had not received the news of Zhong Li's success, but he judged that the Qin army was in a hurry, and this "reinforcement" was desperate to rescue.

So Long He ordered the left and right flanks to immediately break away from the main formation of the Chinese army and go to block the Qin army. When the left and right flanks of 50,000 and 100,000 troops went to kill the Qin army, suddenly the earth began to tremble, and Long He knew that it was coming from the direction of Aocang after a little listening, and he also knew that the Chu army did not have so many war horses, which must be strange, and immediately ordered the whole army to turn their heads again and prepare to fight.

Long Ji's judgment was right this time, at this moment, Meng Xin saw that the torch teams on both sides kept forming a circle and signaling, and he was leading more than 10,000 Jiuyuan cavalry to start charging and killing Long Jizhong's army.

Long He knew from the shock of the horse's hooves that his Chinese army was not an opponent, so he carefully ordered the 30,000 troops to line up to meet the enemy, and he led the 20,000 troops to retreat southward, preparing to cooperate with the armies on both wings to encircle and kill the cavalry in the middle.

And when the armies on both wings went to chase and kill Qin's "reinforcements", they saw that they were about to catch up with the incomparably long line of torches, and found that they were far away before one person ran with a torch, and these reinforcements were disguised to lure the enemy.

When the adjutant generals got the news, they found that they had been fooled, and knew that the Chinese army was in danger, so they hurriedly ordered the army to turn around. At this time, countless rockets were shot out of the darkness, and the Chu army on both wings found that a lot of firewood was actually put under the feet of the Qin army, and this time the rockets fell from the sky, and many places on the ground were burned, and the army fell into chaos in an instant.

The Qin armies on both sides began to change to frantically pouring crossbow arrows. After more than ten rounds of crossbow arrows, the Qin army finally took advantage of the chaos of the Chu army and began to rush over.

Compared with the tens of thousands of troops stretching far away, the Qin army's fire attacks and crossbow arrows were limited, and nearly two-thirds of the Chu army that fled back. Of course, the 30,000 army formation that Long He placed to block the cavalry was basically wiped out by Mengxin not long after.

Long He gathered nearly 80,000 troops and began to retreat south, at this time the main army that had already been ambushed in the south was in full formation. The Chu army was attacked again this time, and after a period of panic, Long and orderly organized a large army to break through to the south to fight. At this time, it was discovered that the Qin army was in sight again, and the Chu army panicked again.

Long Ji also felt strange, and he didn't understand what tricks the Qin army was doing, so he had to order the army to continue to march south. At this time, there were suddenly countless rockets coming out of the sky on both sides, and the two wings of the Chu army that were burned by the fire just now were basically killed, and this time for the remaining two wings of the Chu army was still new, and suddenly found that there was a lot of firewood under their feet.

The fire burned again, followed by a rain of bolts. At this time, the left and right flanks frantically squeezed towards the middle of the Chinese army, and the army was about to fall into a panic, and Long He began to realize that the Qin army was trying to create panic and let his army trample on itself.

Long He ordered the whole army to stabilize and slowly kill southward in order. This time, the Chu army lined up neatly and killed several miles south, and found that there were not many Qin troops, only a few blocked small battles, and then ran away. Just as the Chu army began to slowly retreat to the south with peace of mind, suddenly the sound of crossbow arrows in front of them sounded again, and at this time, in the darkness, the shield of the Chu army was not raised in time, and a large number of them fell down at once.

Learning from the lessons of the previous times, Long Ji felt that this time was also harassment, and ordered the whole army not to slow down and rush forward at full speed. At this time, there were countless crossbow arrows on both sides, followed by the sound of the Qin army's rushing and killing. Long He estimated in the Chinese army that the army had been killed for nearly an hour, but the army could not move forward.

At this time, Long Ji felt unprecedented horror: it turned out that the Qin army was surrounded and strangled on three sides at the moment, but the vacant direction of Ao Cang was waiting for cavalry and other ambushes, and he was about to fall into a desperate situation. But thinking about his tens of thousands of troops, learning from Fan Zeng's strategy last time, directly ignoring the harassment of the left and right flanks, the whole army rushed south to kill, and maybe it could kill through the Qin army's large array.

Qin Chu's army launched an extremely fierce slaughter in the second half of the night, and it was not until after dawn that Han Xin ordered the army to withdraw from its position.

Because the Qin army had already prepared, the Chu army responded in a panic, and this time there were less than 20,000 soldiers and horses left in the frontal fight, while the Qin army lost less than 30,000 soldiers and horses.

When Long He thought he had broken through, the earth began to shake again, and the Jiuyuan cavalry, who had not heard from him for nearly half of the night, chased after him from behind!!

Just when the Chu army thought that there was no way to escape, a big banner with the word "Fan" suddenly floated in the south. Long He was suddenly shaken and ordered the army to move closer to the large array of the military division.

It's a pity that at this time, the Jiuyuan cavalry had already killed Long Ji's rear army, and Long Ji couldn't care about it so much, so he hurriedly beat his horse and fled to Fan Ji's army.

Fan Zeng also felt the shaking of the earth at this time, until the two armies in front of him had a problem, and hurriedly lined up to resist the Qin cavalry, and quickly retreated after receiving the dragon.

Mengxin slaughtered the Chu army to the ground, and Long and Fan Zeng fled back to the camp with less than 10,000 soldiers and horses.

Over there in Xingyang.

Xiang Yu carried forward the style of non-stop attack, and desperately supervised the battle and let the 80,000-strong army attack the city frantically. However, according to the explanations of Meng Tian and Han Xin, Li Wen, Wang Xiao and Feng Guangli defended in an orderly manner, Xiang Yu attacked for two days and one night, and was about to consume the defenders of Xingyang City, Wang Li led the army to come to the rescue.

Xiang Yu was furious, and when he was about to personally brave the rain of arrows to attack the city, Fan Zenglong and Zhong Liwu both brought back the news of the defeat. Counting the 350,000 troops, there are only about 80,000 of them, and there are many wounded.

Xiang Yu had no choice but to accept Fan Zeng's suggestion to withdraw the army, considering the problem of grain and grass, they decided to withdraw to Langxi County and join Xiang Liang's army.

In this way, Han Xin did not have less than 100,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, and in accordance with Meng Tian's previous instructions, he used cavalry to chase and kill for thirty miles before stopping the pursuit, ending Xingyang's fierce army. As a result, Han Xin's series of tactics broke Xiang Yu's army of 350,000 with more than 30,000 casualties.

His battle plan was: to increase the transport of grain and grass as a cover, secretly transported the army of Xingyang to Aocang to ambush, after defeating Zhong Liwu, immediately rushed to ambush the dragon and the army, the cavalry in the rush to kill the dragon and the Chinese army after resting on the spot, after dawn is conducive to the cavalry to kill, so after dawn began to rush to kill, just to defeat Fan Zeng's reinforcements, of which the first ambush of Long and was a harassing suspect.

If Long He had commanded the two wings to rush in both directions, perhaps there would not have been so many ambushes and sieges in the future, but unfortunately he did not see through Han Xin's layout, but instead got into the ambush pocket set up by Han Xin.

It is said that after Zhang Han received the order of Fusu, he immediately rushed to Julu to join Wang Wei, and after the handover, Zhang Han led an army of 100,000 to the east and approached Langxie County. When Zhang Han's army arrived in Jibei County, the horses of the two sides began to clash, so that when Zhang Han's army was stationed in the camp of Langxi County, Qin Chu's army knew that the big war was coming.

Xiang Liang's shogunate was full of stars, in addition to the original Yuzi period, there were Li Zuoche, Chen Yu, Zhang Er and Peng Yue under the command of Zhao Wang Xie, who fled from Julu and took refuge temporarily, as well as Xiang Bo of his own family.

On this day, the Xiang Liang shogunate raised the account to discuss the crusade against the Qin army. Since at the beginning of Zhao Guocheng's army, Li Zuoche led the new army that was temporarily patched together to draw with Zhang Han, Xiang Liang was the first to ask Li Zuoche's opinion in this discussion.

Li Zuoche thought for a while and said: "Zhang Han is a master of governing the army, compared to Meng Tian and other famous generals, he is slightly insufficient, and the general can lead the army out of the city to test how to make a decision on the combat strength of the Qin army led by him this time." ”

In fact, Xiang Liang was slightly more deficient than General Zhang Han, and when he saw Li Zuoche say this, he sent Yu Ziqi to lead an army of 5,000 to explore the reality of the Qin army, and he personally led the army to be ready to respond at any time.

After receiving the report, Zhang Han immediately beat the drum and gathered the generals, and after a brief introduction to the military situation, Zhang Han asked for the opinions of the generals.

Meng Zhi has always been infected by Meng Tian's side, so he learned from Meng Tian's flexibility in advocating to ambush the Xiongnu in Yinshan regardless of the generals' defensive opinions: "The last general thinks that we don't need to care about the enemy's actions, and our army's goal is to recapture the granary and then annihilate the enemy. ”

After listening to Mengzhi's suggestion, Wang Wei's eyes lit up: "The last general thought that he could make a slight modification on the basis of General Mengzhi, send an army disguised as the main force to engage the enemy, and then the army secretly attacked Langxicang." ”

Zhang Han had been under the command of Wang Jian when Daqin swept away the Six Kingdoms, and after pondering for a while, he said slowly: "The whole army of our army went out of the camp to meet the enemy, the middle army and the rear army were for the purpose of drilling, and the front army pretended to be defeated and fled back to the camp after the onslaught, and at the same time, the middle army and the rear army took advantage of this to 'escape' the camp and hide secretly, the front army was led by Wang Wei, the rear army was led by Meng Zhi, and the general personally commanded the Chinese army. ”

All the generals bowed their hands together: "General Gaojian!" Subsequently, Zhang Han ordered the generals to act according to the plan.

Wang Wei led the two thousand vanguard troops of crossbow arrowmen, shield soldiers and long sword soldiers to alternately form formations to kill the front of the Chu army, and the 5,000 troops behind dragged the branches to run the rear into dust, and from a distance it looked like tens of thousands of troops marching.

When the two armies were more than two hundred steps apart, the Qin army began to fire crossbow arrows, and the Chu army also launched a small number of old-style crossbow arrows found from the Lang Evil Warehouse, but the effect was far less than that of the Qin army.
