Chapter 1608: Ran Min VS Zhou Yafu

The Qin army has many elite troops, such as: Jiulong Guard, Iron Guard, Guard, Flying Tiger Army, etc., but the most representative ones are trapped camps and broken military camps.

Among the many elite armies of the Qin army, the position of the Tiger Battalion is more awkward, and it is not up or down, but this does not mean that the combat power of the Tiger Battalion is not strong.

In the hands of any other princes, the Tiger Camp is a well-deserved strong army, but the Qin Army has too many elites, and the competition between the armies is extremely fierce, so it seems that the presence of the Tiger Camp is not so strong, but the comprehensive combat power of the Tiger Camp is also beyond doubt.

Although the tiger camp is strong, but the opponent this time is not weak, Gongsun Shu's Liaodong Iron Cavalry, Zhou Yafu's Youzhou Iron Cavalry, are all famous strong armies in the world, even if the front and the Manchu Eight Banners hard bar is not left behind.

It can be seen from this that the comprehensive quality of the cavalry of the Northern Han Dynasty was not much worse than that of the Qin army, but their total number was indeed more than three times that of the Qin army.

You can imagine how dangerous this mission is.

Li Jing naturally knew that this mission was extremely dangerous, so he also incorporated the strong generals among the generals into the Tiger Battalion, in order to try his best to improve the combat power of the Tiger Battalion and minimize the casualties, while also hoping that the Tiger Battalion could come back safely.

Ran Min Tai Shi Ci and the others left with the Tiger Ben Camp, and looking at the Tiger Ben Camp that was gradually moving away, Yin Shi Niang asked, "Husband, General Ran Min, can they successfully complete this mission?" ”

"Absolutely."

Li Jing's eyes were full of determination, and he said in a deep voice: "As long as you follow the strategy I set." ”

————————————

On the other side, 10,000 Northern Han cavalry were also galloping in the direction of Beihai, with the purpose of intercepting Li Jing's 55,000 Qin troops.

Among the 10,000 cavalry of the Northern Han Dynasty, Zhou Yafu and Gongsun Shu each had 5,000, although Wang Mang did not clearly appoint who was the main general, but Zhou Yafu was the person of Liu Che, the emperor of the Northern Han Dynasty, so the 10,000 army was also dominated by Zhou Yafu.

Zhou Yafu is the second son of Zhou Bo, the founder of the Western Han Dynasty, and he is better at bullying, not only a famous general, but also a prime minister, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty.

Among the sixty-four generals posthumously awarded by the Tang Dynasty, including 'Taiwei Jianghou Zhou Yafu'.

The Song Dynasty built temples for ancient famous generals in accordance with the practice of the Tang Dynasty, and Zhou Yafu was also included among the 72 famous generals.

Zhou Yafu is known for being good at managing the army and leading the army, and his military talent is outstanding, which was vividly displayed in the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms of Wu and Chu.

In the third year of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bi, the king of Wu, united with Liu Wu, the king of Chu, and Liu Wei, the king of Jiaoxi, launched a rebellion, and played the banner of "punishing Chao wrong and clearing the monarch's side".

At that time, there were 500,000 troops in the Seven Kingdoms, and there were only 100,000 troops in the Han court.

Zhou Yafu was ordered to command the Han army to fight against the rebels of the Seven Kingdoms, and sent 3,000 strange soldiers to attack the enemy's grain road and seize its grain and grass.

From the beginning to the end of the war, Zhou Yafu took only three months to completely quell the rebels of the Seven Kingdoms and save the Han Dynasty.

Zhou Yafu worked in Sheji, but in the end he was unjustly imprisoned and committed suicide after eating.

The birds are hidden in the bow, the rabbits are dead and the dogs are cooked, and the body of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty can be said to be vividly displayed.

"Speed up, as long as you pass here, you will soon be able to catch up with Li Jing." Zhou Yafu waved his horsewhip and shouted.

[Ding Dong, Zhou Yafu's skill 'Strong Army' is launched. 】

[Strong army: strong voice, strong military prestige. (The effect varies depending on the person.) ）

Effect 1, when commanding cavalry, the commander +2, the marching speed is greatly increased.

Effect 2, when commanding infantry, the commander +3, and the morale of the whole army is partially increased.

Effect 3, when participating in the battle in person, the force is +3, and the morale of the whole army is greatly improved. 】

[Ding Dong, Zhou Yafu's skill 'Strong Army' effect 1 is activated, when commanding the cavalry, the commander +2, and the marching speed increases significantly.

Commander Zhou Yafu is 96, and the current commander has risen to 98, and the marching speed of the whole army has increased significantly. 】

Under the command of Zhou Yafu, the cavalry of the Northern Han Dynasty rode their horses and galloped all the way, and the strange thing was that it was obviously marching against the wind, but the speed was three points faster than the fastest.

"Report ...... General Qiyu, a large number of Qin cavalry was found in front. ”

"Sure enough, it came."

Zhou Yafu sneered, and then asked, "How many people came?" ”

"About five thousand horsemen."

Although Li Jing sent Jintai back to Beihai the night before, this was a secret operation, and Wang Mang was completely unaware of it, so in the cognition of the generals of the Northern Han Dynasty, there were still 5,000 cavalry on Li Jing's side.

Li Jing knew this, so he asked Ran Min to pretend to be 5,000 cavalry with 3,000 tigers, so as to confuse Zhou Yafu and strengthen his momentum.

If it is against the main force of the Qin army, even if Zhou Yafu's side is full of cavalry, he still needs to avoid the edge.

But if there is only the cavalry of the Qin army, and the strength is only half of its own, then it is naturally impossible for the cavalry of the Northern Han Dynasty to retreat, after all, it is convenient to destroy the cavalry of the Qin army and intercept the main force of the Qin army.

After hearing the soldier's report, Zhou Yafu said decisively: "Our army now has Liaodong Iron Cavalry and Youzhou Iron Cavalry, and the strength is twice that of the Qin Army, but the Qin Army's cavalry is more well-equipped and well-trained, so it is not appropriate to fight hard."

General Gongsun Shu, you lead 5,000 Liaodong iron cavalry to fight head-on with the Qin army, and this general leads 5,000 Youzhou iron cavalry to detour to the rear and launch a surprise attack on the Qin army, flanking from both sides, to completely annihilate this cavalry. ”

Although Gongsun Shu was a little reluctant in his heart, he did not refuse, and said in a deep voice: "No." ”

Zhou Yafu nodded and said, "The two generals of Taiyu and Juwuba, you will also act together with General Gongsun." ”

"No."

On the Qin army's side, on a small hillside, Qin Ming saw that the enemy army was divided into two, and immediately said excitedly: "As Taishou expected, the enemy army has divided more troops. ”

All the generals also showed excitement, after all, there was a good start, and if it was the same later, this mission would only be thrilling.

Although Ran Min has already prepared in his heart, even if he sacrifices the Tiger Camp, he must protect the whole army, but after all, the Tiger Camp is an army that he has personally trained, and now that he can keep the Tiger Camp, of course he also hopes to minimize the losses as much as possible.

"The order is given, and the whole army immediately retreats and lures the Northern Han army away." Ran Min ordered.

"No."

Zhou Yafu's side, seeing that the Qin army had run away before the battle, thought that the other party's main general had seen through his strategy, and retreated in advance in order to prevent being attacked from both sides.

"The whole army is in pursuit." Zhou Yafu ordered.

The two Han armies that were separated joined forces again and pursued in the direction where the Qin army had fled.

Seeing that the Han army was catching up, Ran Min was overjoyed and shouted: "The whole army retreats to the southwest, lure the Northern Han cavalry away, and stay away from the main army as much as possible." ”

"No."
