Xiong Huai agreed: "The widow also gave Xianqing fifty warships, one thousand sailors, and 10,000 elite soldiers and 5,000 troops to build bridges, and 5,000 troops to be responsible for responding to Xianqing's retreat." ”

E Jun saluted and said, "King Xie." ”

Xiong Huai continued: "There is a lot of inconvenience in the army, after the main force of our Chu army mobilizes the Qin and Han coalition forces, the widow will light the wolf smoke on the south bank of Danshui to warn, and when he sees the wolf smoke, Qing can immediately feint to attack the Qin army." ”

E Jun nodded and said, "Obey the king's orders." ”

Said to Xiang Chengjun: "After Qing saw the wolf smoke, he knew that my Chu army had begun to feint against the Qin army from two places, and as for when to attack the Han army, Qing can decide on his own." ”

Xiang Chengjun nodded and said, "Only." ”

Xiong Huai then looked to the north and said, "Although the war did not break out today, we can't let them be idle today. Ordered all armies to move their troops north and confront the Qin army across the river. ”

"The order of the widow ordered the sailor to send 200 warships, of which 20 warships went to Danshui to inspect and 20 warships to inspect Taoshui, starting from the Dantao interchange to inspect the Baili River. The remaining 160 warships approached the camp of the Qin army and beat drums in demonstration. ”

"Order."

Soon, the sailors of the Chu army divided two hundred warships and sailed to the Qin army camp at the Dantao intersection.

The Qin army's river defense battalion.

"Report, general, the Chu army has crossed the Han River and is rushing towards us." The scout came to report.

Gongzihua asked, "Coming to us?" How long will it take for the Chu army to reach the other side? ”

"Return to the general, and it will be there in two hours."

Gongzihua said: "Immediately explore the route of the Chu army, and report it as soon as the Chu army is encamped." ”

"No."

After the scouts left, Gongzihua ordered: "Immediately invite General Shen of Korea to come to discuss the matter." ”

Since the defeat of the Five Kingdoms against Qin and his capture, Shen Cha, who had been a guest in Qin for more than two years, became the chief general of the Han army with the support of Qin and Gong Zhongxuan.

After Shen sent to the Qin army's big tent, he bowed his hand to Gongzihua and said, "I don't know what Gongzi invited me to come to discuss?" ”

Gongzihua said: "According to the scout's report, the Chu army is now rushing to Danshui, and the general intends to take advantage of the Chu army's unstable foothold to steal the camp, so I invite the general to come and discuss." ”

"It turns out to be like..." Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted.

"Newspaper..."

A scout came in and reported: "Report to the general, a 200-ship Chu army sailor appeared in the lower reaches of Danshui, approaching our army at a very fast speed. ”

"What?" Gongzihua and Shen Cha exclaimed at the same time.

The two of them looked at each other and immediately got up and headed for the river.

Not long after the two of them came to the river with their army, they saw a dense fleet of boats going upriver from the lower reaches of the Danshui River, and in a blink of an eye, they arrived nearby, and the speed did not decrease, heading towards the direction of the Qin army on the shore.

Shen Cha was shocked: "Chu Jun is crazy? Could it be that the sailors alone want to attack us! We can't go to the river, can't the warships of the Chu army's sailors still go ashore? ”

Gongzihua nodded at first, then his face changed, and said, "It's not good, Sailor, I'm afraid..."

Shen Cha's face became ugly when he heard this.

What Gongzihua didn't say, he also thought of it.

The Qin-Han coalition army did not have a water division, and in the face of the water division of the Chu army, it was an absolute disadvantage, and if you wanted to prevent Danshui, it would be much more difficult.

"Herald, archers ready." Gongzihua commanded left and right.

An archery unit, soon organized by the generals of the Qin army, came to the river, divided into three groups, and prepared to guard against the warships of the Chu army.

When the warship of the Chu State Navy Division came to the middle of the river, it immediately sounded a deafening sound of war drums that resounded through the sky.

After hearing the sound of the drums, Gongzihua sneered and said, "I want to see how the Chu army sailors got ashore." ”

It's just that after the drum sounded, the expected charge did not appear, on the contrary, the warships of the Chu State began to slow down.

The last two hundred warships, stopped outside the range of the Qin army's bows and arrows, and continued to beat the war drums.

Shen Cha said: "The water division of the Chu State does not fight, retreats and does not retreat, and stops in the river to beat drums, which is provoking us and others." ”

Gongzihua said helplessly: "It's a pity that we don't have a water master, otherwise..."

After the war drums of the Chu State Water Division sounded a stick of incense, they finally stopped.

Then the 200 warships were divided into three, and 20 warships were divided into the left and right, one west and one north, respectively, and went upstream to the Danshui water.

Seeing this, Gongzihua frowned, looked at the river and sighed, and said: "Order the military camps in various places, be careful and vigilant, and once the Chu army comes to attack, immediately light the wolf smoke to warn." ”

After the herald left, Gongzihua said to Shen Cha: "General, the previous matter of stealing the camp is over, please guard the water, guard the Danshui below, and once the Chu army comes to attack, immediately warn and summon the news." ”

Shen Cha nodded and said, "Please rest assured, Gongzi, you must be careful in the next step, and you will not let the Chu State succeed." ”

Shen Cha was about to leave, and another scout from the Qin army arrived.

"Report to the general, the Chu army has arrived thirty miles away, and the banner of the king of Chu has appeared in the Chu army."

When the two heard that the banner of the King of Chu appeared in the camp of the Chu army, they immediately took a long breath of cold air.

Shen Cha was shocked: "I heard that the King of Chu personally rescued Qu Kuo, I didn't think so, I didn't expect the King of Chu to really come, this... How can this be good. ”

Now that the king of Chu is here, the local armies from all over the state of Chu will inevitably gather to respond, even if there are not many elite soldiers among them, but the number of troops must be extremely large.

If there is a field battle, the Qin State is naturally not afraid, but if the Chu State is only defensive, then even if the Qin State has another 200,000 elites, it will be difficult to defeat the Chu State.

Gongzihua let out a long sigh and was silent.

Finally, the herald said: "Someone come, send a message to the general, just say that the prince of Chu is coming, with the help of the water division, he can attack the stronghold of my Qin army's defense line at will, I am afraid that the general will lose for a long time, and it will be difficult to resist the attack of the king of Chu, please make plans as soon as possible." ”

At sunset that day, Xiong Huai led the Chu army to the south bank of Danshui and confronted the Qin army across the river.

After nightfall, a hundred warships went upriver from Danshui, and after passing through the confluence of Danshui Turbulence, the fleet was divided into two and went upstream to Danshui Turbulence.

After a night's rest, early the next morning, Zhao Ju began to prepare to attack the Qin army camp.

This time, because the main battlefield of the naval division is Danshui, the warships that came here are the largest number of warships in the army, a kind of slender body, many oarsmen, extremely fast, known as the main ships of the big wing, the middle wing, the small wing, the big wing, the big wing, the middle wing, the hundred wings, and the rest are small wings.

The building ships on the Yangtze River, as well as the flagship of the super-large ships, known as the shipwreck, did not follow the king of Chu because of the draft.

The wings are ten zhang long, more than 20 meters long, more than 3 meters wide, and can carry 90 people when fully loaded.

More than a hundred warships were parked on the south bank, and at the bow stood two rows of men with shields and swords, followed by several archers, and the sailors were already ready.

The king of Chu and the main force of the Chu army are here, the Qin army will naturally be heavily guarded here, and the 30,000 Qin army is also ready, 2,000 Qin troops are in front with spears, 3,000 Qin troops are in the back, and then 10,000 Qin troops are on guard with bows, and 15,000 Qin troops are maneuvering in the rear, ready to help.
