Chapter 231: It's over before it's exciting

Having said all this, everyone also understood the true purpose of Wang Bu Hunger.

It was by setting up such a bureau that the main force of the Chu army in Pengcheng went out of the city to fight.

To put it more thoroughly, that is, after the Chu army left Pengcheng, through Wang Li, Han Xin's layout suddenly exerted force to surround the Chu army from the rear.

In this way, there are 300,000 Han troops in front and 250,000 Han troops in the back, adding up to 550,000 people, can the Chu army run away?

As long as the main force of the Chu army is defeated, is there still a need for Pengcheng to defend?

Does Chu still have the capital to continue to survive?

This bureau is also clever when it is said to be clever, and it is not clever to say that it is not clever.

If the Chu army is defending Pengcheng and turning a blind eye to the situation in Suiyang, then Wang Bu is really hungry and has no choice but to advance step by step, and then go to fight a tough battle with the Chu army in Pengcheng.

And this kind of siege of hundreds of thousands of people is not something that can be directly attacked when you come.

Pengcheng could not accommodate hundreds of thousands of defenders, and the two sides had to fight outside the city first.

If you're lucky, the Chu army will fight you in the field first, and then rely on the blessing of the city's defense to fight you.

If you're unlucky, the defenders will all be crowded into the city, relying on the city as a cover to engage you below.

And you not only need to face the attack of the Chu army, but also guard against the harassment of bows and arrows from overhead.

What's even worse is that because there are a large number of defenders in the city, after this batch is fought, a new batch will come out the next day.

Relying on this model to constantly consume your vitality and consume your morale.

Even if he can win the next game smoothly and make the Chu army dare not send people out of the city, at this time it is just a second stage of the offensive.

Siege warfare is still the battle mode with the most casualties.

Therefore, if the battle really comes to this point, even if the Han army can win, I am afraid it will be a miserable victory.

……

Surabaya County, Seongbu County.

In the Chengfu County Mansion, Han Xin sat on the high hall with an arrogant face, sweeping away the gloom in his heart.

Although the start was not good, now it is more and more comfortable.

How comfortable is it?

When attacking Kuxian, it was still the scouts who made great contributions, taking advantage of the chaos to capture the city gate and enlarge the army to enter.

Although there were regrets, the siege troops still took more than 200 heads, and then the defenders of Kuxian County surrendered and successfully took Kuxian.

And Han Xin searched Kuxian, mainly because the local nobles were strong and strong, and they got a lot of money and grain.

In the later counties, the scouts failed to open the city gates, but they created chaos in the city, providing a lot of convenience for the troops attacking the city outside the city.

In this battle, the Han army beheaded more than 800 people, which was also a full harvest.

And the city father, because the other party was already on guard, so he didn't make a big move as before, just assassinating the county commander and the county cheng.

Because the county lieutenant has been on the city wall and surrounded by troops, he has no chance to attack, so he can only give up.

And in this battle, the Han army beheaded a thousand people.

To this day, more than half a month of troops have been dispatched, no matter what he has or not, anyway, Han Xin has taken four cities in a row, killed more than 2,000 enemies, and lost less than 500 people.

And because Han Xin would collect some local troops every time he went to the city, so far Han Xin's troops have not decreased, but have grown to nearly 60,000 people.

And the most important thing is that the combat effectiveness of the newly joined 10,000 people can also be guaranteed, at least in the Chu army, it belongs to the middle and upper kind.

"General, the king's secret letter!"

Han Xin, who was enjoying the joy of victory, suddenly received a report from the scouts accompanying the army.

Han Xin couldn't help but retract his joy and took the secret report from the scout's hand.

This mode is normal in the Han army, and if you want to keep it secret and can guarantee a certain speed, let the scouts deliver the news.

If it's just a quick attempt, you can use a herald to pass it.

After confirming that the seal was sealed and that there was no trace of damage to the mud seal on it, Han Xin opened the seal in front of the scouts, revealing a silk cloth inside.

However, Han Xin did not open it, but waved his hand around.

The reason for this is to ensure that there is something inside the sealed bamboo tube that is opened.

As for the content, then I'm sorry, even if you show it to him, he doesn't dare to look at it.

Everyone around them retreated in good sense and began to be on guard around them.

Han Xin opened the secret letter and read it carefully over and over again from beginning to end.

Sometimes excited, sometimes frowned.

For Wang not to be hungry, he was both excited and felt a headache.

He had to withdraw his own troops, and then gave himself an even more difficult task.

Although Han Xin also felt that the situation of the Chu army seemed to be a little different recently, as if the enemy was getting weaker and weaker?

Are they all old, weak, sick and disabled?

And this secret letter told him the answer, the Chu army was going to have a decisive battle with the Han army in Pengcheng.

The Han army did not have enough troops, so naturally they could only draw the main force from the surrounding area to fight a decisive battle.

But King Han obviously didn't want to be led by the nose by the Chu army like this, so he had this secret letter.

Of course, there must be disadvantages in everything, and there are disadvantages and advantages.

Although he is about to withdraw his main force, in the same way, if he can get more combat merits in this situation, it will be more able to show his ability.

Han Xin has endured humiliation for so many years, and his favorite thing to do is not admit defeat.

Otherwise, we wouldn't be where we are now.

And the decisive battle is related to the future of Han and Chu, so the 50,000 people under his command must not be kept.

If you want to continue with the mission, you need to think about it from other aspects.

And now, except for no one, everything else is what you want.

After the looting of the four counties, Han Xinjun now has so much grain and grass that he can't eat it all, even if there is an army of 100,000, he can eat it completely.

"Pass on Jagu!" Han Xin yelled outside.

In these years, I am afraid of everything, but I am not afraid of food, as long as there is food, it is still easy to pull up a team.

What kind of elite soldiers are not elite soldiers, the overall situation now is that there are peasant rebels everywhere in the world.

Even if it is the Chu army, the real elite is just that.

It is precisely for this reason that the Han army can be invincible, because in the face of the Han army, which has undergone systematic and routine training, these peasant armies are simply not able to fight.

And the problem that Han Xin is facing now is nothing more than that he has no elite, and he forcibly pulls the level of his troops to the same level as the Chu army, is this difficult?

But don't forget, Han Xin is a little expert in military training, as long as he has a thousand personal soldiers, he will soon be able to train a sub-elite soldier whose strength exceeds that of most of the Chu army.

After a short time, Jagu walked in covered in blood, which was left over from the previous siege, all the blood of the enemy, and he had not had time to cleanse it.

"Jia Gu, you are wearing the armor of this general, under the banner of this general, with the elite of the headquarters, and immediately rush to the aid of Suiyang ......"
