The last time Zhong Liwu was ambushed by Han Xin, he desperately rushed to the east to break out of the encirclement, and this time he found that although the military advisor had been told by thousands of times, he still strayed into the Qin army's large array, and he thought that Xiang Liang was in the north, and ordered the army to attack and advance to the north.

Fan Zeng and Xiang Liang watched the army push and kill the retreating Qin army in an orderly manner on the high slope in the north, but the army still entered the Qin army's large array. Fan Zeng ordered to hurry up and urge the army on the north side of Xiang Liang to attack the north side of the Qin army and rescue Zhong Liwu's army.

Meng Xin, who had been waiting for a long time, also began to kill Xiang Liang, and the Qin army chariots in the north suddenly changed from a long serpentine shape to a circle, like a bunker, the two chariots fell up as a city wall, and they could move slowly, and the bunkers kept shooting crossbow arrows to kill and injure the Chu army.

The northernmost spear and shield soldiers seemed to be waiting for the arrival of Xiang Liang's army, and rushed directly to the south side of Xiang Liang's army. Xiang Liang's army was entangled by the Qin army's infantry on the south side, and faced the Qin army's iron cavalry to kill due west, and the Chu army did not have as many crossbow arrows as the Qin army, and it was killed at once.

Zhong Liwu was shot one by one in the face of the Qin army's prepared chariot bunkers at this moment, although the soldiers who were not afraid of life and death had once approached the chariot to fight and damaged many chariots, but the Qin army's endless crossbow arrows were still eating away at their own soldiers, so he ruthlessly ordered the whole army to retreat.

Ma Xing saw the Chu army retreating in the rear, so he waved the command flag, and the Qin army in the north suddenly came out of the chariot circle formation and began to shoot crossbow arrows flatly, and the casualties of the Chu army immediately increased sharply, and the retreat became even more panicked.

The Qin army's crossbow arrows were not so many, taking advantage of the enemy's confusion to retreat, he began to rush up with a long sword to slash and kill, because the crossbow arrows killed and injured the Chu army before, the exhausted Chu army and the elite of the Qin army met, and as soon as the battle was basically one-sided, Zhong Liwu was chased and killed embarrassed, and retreated......

Xiang Yu of the Chinese army found an unfortified "city wall", he was stunned at first, and then came up with a bold idea, ordering the shield soldiers to cover themselves tightly, and personally brave the rain of arrows to kill the enemy.

When Xiang Yu approached the "city wall" built by the grain truck, he lifted it with a spear, and unexpectedly opened a big gap in the grain truck, and the entire "wall" shook.

The Ji Bu light infantry cruising next to him hurriedly killed to cover this large pillbox, and at the same time, the small phalanx of crossbow arrows in reserve inside immediately shot and injured the Chu army who were about to rush in outside the gap.

Xiang Yu was very excited to kill in, and the phalanx in front of him was disturbed, but the crossbow archers who kept rotating in the back immediately adjusted and began to shoot flat, Xiang Yu's armor was densely covered with arrows, and the pro-soldiers and shield soldiers next to him fell to the ground one after another, so they had to retreat.

Xiang Yu ordered the death squad to rush through the gap he had opened to kill the Qin army. However, Li Wen received Han Xin's instructions in advance, and arranged in advance, and every fifty paces there was a wall of grain trucks that was a little shorter than the periphery.

The high walls of the Qin army, which were destroyed by Xiang Yu in front, retreated one after another, and under the cover of Ji Bu's guerrilla infantry, they entered the "pillbox" behind and continued to shoot the Chu army. Xiang Yu's incomparable courage made his Chinese army the only one in the Chu army that could continue to move forward, but the Qin army in the middle was also the "Checheng Circle Array" where Han Xin carefully arranged the most crossbow arrows, Xiang Yu's army suffered heavy casualties, and the lack of killing the Qin army was the least.

The dragon and the army fought one after another, and when they were about to break through from the south, a large army came to them, and the banner clearly wrote "Chapter". It turned out that Zhang Han led an army of 40,000 to break through the large camp in the south of the Chu army in accordance with Han Xin's instructions, and went to the south to block the Chu army fleeing south. Because the main force of the Chu army came to the decisive battle, there were very few people left to defend the camp, and they could not stop the attack of Zhang Han's army.

And the army was shot by the Qin army's "Checheng Circle" crossbow arrows for a long time, one by one frightened, and encountered Zhang Han's army blocking the road, exhausted, Long He had to gather towards the Chinese army, and was chased and killed by Zhang Han for a while.

Fan Zeng, who was watching the battle on the high slope, was very anxious when he saw that the Qin army had inflicted a lot of casualties on the Chu army by virtue of its good fighting qualities and the huge advantage of crossbow arrows.

He concluded that Han Xin's purpose was not to defeat the Chu army, but to slowly lure and shoot, create an atmosphere of terror, and then surround and pursue, and if it dragged on until dark, the Chu army might be completely defeated.

After analysis, Fan Zeng decisively suggested that Xiang Liang quickly order all the troops to go south in an orderly manner. The army retreated to Chu, otherwise they would all be left here by Qin Crossbow. Xiang Liang also felt that the pressure on the battlefield was too great, so he immediately ordered the whole army to be the vanguard of the dragon, and after Xiang Yu's palace, he and Zhong Li's army were pressed and killed to the south.

Although Xiang Yu was very reluctant to retreat, he also saw that after his own army of 50,000 came out to fight with the Qin army, there were only more than 10,000, so he had to retreat south.

Han Xin saw that the Chu army was so decisive to kill to the south, and urgently ordered the whole army to rush out of the big formation, entangled the Chu army to fight, and he personally led the cavalry under his command and Ziying to go forward to encircle and kill Long and the forward.

After all, Fan Zeng is also a master, advancing and retreating well, the front army is retreating, and the rear army is desperately resisting the pursuit of the Qin army. The army slowly bypassed the encirclement of Zhang Han and withdrew south.

Due to Meng Tian's special general requirements, Han Xin didn't dare to chase and kill too hard, and the two sides ended their killing at the third watch.

In this battle, Han Xin's "Checheng Circle Array" taught by Meng Tian before, this array was comprehensively researched by Sun Bin and other soldiers. At the time of the Battle of Changping, Zhao Kuo, who was besieged by Bai Qi, once put up this large array to confront, and the Qin army could not attack, and later Bai Qi could only break the Zhao army through the siege.

Bai Qi explained the various subtleties and application methods of this large array to Meng Tian's ancestor Meng Wei and other generals on the Wolf City Mountain.

Now Han Xin broke the Chu army this time, and only more than 50,000 Qin troops participated in the battle, and successfully broke more than 200,000 Chu troops. If it weren't for the lack of strength of the Qin army and the inability to do their best to pursue and kill, I'm afraid it would be difficult for Xiang Liang and the others to retreat.

Even so, the Chu army still left more than 120,000 corpses on this land. And Han Xin turned the camp into a movable attack city through this "Checheng Circle Array", and tricked the Chu army into coming to attack the city to "accept" the shooting, and the Qin army suffered less than 10,000 casualties and scared the Chu army.

The battle finally ended, and in the middle of the process, due to Han Xin's cavalry two out and the Xuan array was amazing, the Chu army was defeated. At the time of the final decisive battle, Xiang Yu was brave and unparalleled, and single-handedly provoked the "Checheng Circle Array", although he did not break through the big array, he still showed Xiang Yu's invincible courage in the world.

King Zhao, assisted by Li Zuoche, fled north to the bitterly cold Yan Land. He judged that the Qin army would eventually defeat Xiang's Chu army, so he persuaded the king of Zhao to flee north in advance.

Li Zuoche learned that after the Qin army repelled the Chu army, he would make a comprehensive inspection to clear the chaotic army in the territory of Qi State, and he directly fled to Guangyang County with King Zhao.

There, Li Zuoche made a plan for a comeback, and sent scribes to contact the nobles of the late Zhao to obtain funding. At the same time, they sought to recruit troops and buy horses from the anti-Qin aristocracy of the former Wei and the old Han who were more actively anti-Qin, and chose the right time to raise the anti-flag at the same time, raid Hangu Pass, and coerce the Guanzhong area of Great Qin.

Li Zuoche's strategy and firm determination to oppose Qin caused great trouble for Fusu in the future, and also brought nightmares to the new army in Guanzhong.

In the last month of the summer of 208 BC, Han Xin pacified the Chu rebels in Qi and reported to the imperial court.

Fusu was overjoyed after receiving the battle report of Han Xin's victory, and first agreed to Zhang Han's request to burn the Lang Evil Warehouse according to the needs of the battlefield, forgiving Zhang Han for his innocence, and then convened important ministers to discuss the reward.

After a while, Meng Tian, Wei Yu and others all arrived at Fusu's study, and Fusu and everyone introduced the battle report of Langxi County, and then issued an order to everyone to discuss the reward.

Wei Yu said: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that the world is in an eventful autumn, and it is also a time when heroes are born, so meritorious soldiers will continue to emerge, but my Daqin's twentieth rank and general title are not enough to show the prestige of meritorious people, so the ministers and others have discussed a list of rewards for military merits, please look at it Your Majesty." ”
