Chapter 238: The decisive battle begins
"General, give the order!"
Suddenly, several generals below also raised their heads to fight.
In the final analysis, none of these generals were involved in the court and did not join the factional disputes.
Even if Xianyang changes hands, it will eventually depend on them to lead the troops to fight.
And as a military general, it is natural to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy in order to establish military merits!
Unlike Zhang Han and several henchmen, they were worried that they would be cut off by Xianyang's military power after the loss of their strength was greatly reduced!
Most of the generals asked for battle, which made the atmosphere in the account solemn.
This army has destroyed the first thief Chen Sheng!
Now that he has come with the power of a great victory, he has occupied the superior forces, and he is waiting for work at ease, which can be described as full of confidence.
In the hearts of everyone present, they didn't take the 100,000 anti-thieves in their eyes at all!
Even Zhang Han never worried about defeat.
All I was worried about was how many troops would be lost after destroying these 100,000 rebels.
From the bottom of my heart, I don't want to face it head-on.
After all, this battle was originally intended for the local defenders.
Who would have thought that the local army would actually change generals on the spot, and the command would not move!
There is Sima Xin next to him, and a group of generals are passionately asking for battle, and if they find a reason to shirk and retreat, I am afraid they will have to participate in the last book!
It's not that Zhang Han doesn't understand politics, but he just disguises himself as a reckless man who is only bent on fighting.
If you don't have a little brain, you can marry the princess of Daqin, can you think of taking Zhao Gao's path through the princess in a roundabout way?
Zhang Han turned around, his gaze sweeping over everyone's faces.
Looking at a famous military general full of fighting spirit, he sighed helplessly in his heart.
He said in a low voice: "The whole army will attack and annihilate the anti-thieves in one fell swoop!" ”
"No!"
Suddenly, the faces of the generals below showed excitement.
400,000 troops against 100,000 thieves, that's a battle that must be won!
If you miss it, where can you find such a good meritorious opportunity next time!
As for the 150,000 local defenders, they didn't think they would come to steal the merits.
After all, the combined armies of Xiang Yu and Zhao Wangxie also had more than 100,000 horses, and it was difficult to take advantage of them when they were evenly matched.
If you don't get it right, there is still a possibility of being defeated.
That's if you don't get military merit, you have to be punished.
If the decisive battle between the local army and the anti-thieves is defeated, even if Shima is Fusu's henchman, I am afraid that he will have to go to prison for questioning!
Therefore, in the eyes of everyone present, Xiang Yu should be glad that he did not choose to attack the local army.
In order to be safe, Shima will never jump out to grab credit!
As Zhang Han gave the order to meet the battle, the 400,000 Qin army moved.
Soon, a neatly arranged phalanx blocked the front of those anti-thieves attacking.
The big war is on the verge of breaking out!
Ten miles away, Xiang Yu sat on a black horse.
The tiger's eyes looked ahead, and his eyes were full of high fighting intent.
Long He followed aside, and asked cautiously: "General, can our army really be able to rush straight to the Qin army head-on?" ”
Yu Ziqi also suggested: "The Qin army is overwhelming, and it may be difficult to gain an advantage in a head-on attack on our army!" ”
Xiang Yu retracted his gaze and turned his head to look at the two confidants.
His chin was raised high, and a look of disdain flashed in his eyes.
He said proudly: "Although Zhang Han has 400,000 horses, they are all prisoners transferred from Lishan, how can they be compared with my Jiangdong disciples!" ”
The two looked at each other with a look of approval on their faces.
This point is indeed the advantage of the Chu army.
Although there are only 100,000 soldiers and horses, these are all elites who have undergone strict training, and they are loyal warriors to the Chu State!
And although Zhang Han has an army of 400,000 under his command, in terms of military literacy, it is not good or bad, and it is not the same grade as the Jiangdong soldiers at all!
Even Yingbu, wasn't he born as a prisoner of Lishan at the beginning!
Yingbu is a descendant of Gaotao, the fifty-ninth grandson of Gaotao, a native of Lu'an City, Anhui Province, in the Qin Dynasty. "When he was in the prime of life, he broke the law and was sentenced to death. Yingbu smiled happily and said, "Someone showed me a picture and said that I should be crowned king after being tortured, and now, this is probably the case, right?" People who heard him say this laughed at him. Therefore, it is also called black cloth. Yingbu was later taken to Lishan as a soldier to build the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, and Yingbu interacted with the leaders of the criminals, heroes and heroes, and was very prestigious among the prisoners.
Later, the Lishan prisoners were drafted into battle, and Yingbu was valued by Zhang Han for his excellent performance, and promised to be knighted for his merits.
As a result, Yingbu led a group of followers to escape from the Qin army camp the next day and turned to Xiang Liang.
Because he is brave and good at fighting, he is very valuable.
Otherwise, he would not have been sent to Julu City in advance to test the reality of the Qin army.
In the original trajectory, Yingbu changed his court and voted for Han!
In the end, Han Ting, who betrayed again, was killed because of the rebellion!
Speaking of which, Yingbu is somewhat similar to another three-surnamed domestic slave named X Bu later.
This also highlights the weakness of Zhang Han's army, the good and the bad!
Although these prisoners have received some military training, they are all prisoners in the end.
At the beginning, it was Daqin who had no troops to adjust, so he had to release them.
In terms of combat strength, it's okay to fight with Chen Sheng's exile army.
Even compared with the princes on the other side, the combat power of the same number is also among the best.
But compared to the Chu army, which has undergone strict training, its combat power is not half a star.
This is also one of the reasons why Xiang Yu dared to cross the river.
Coupled with the destruction of the cauldron and the sinking of the boat, the Chu army had no way back to retreat, forcing it to work hard, and its natural combat power soared.
Compared with the Qin army, which has a back road, the morale is not at the same level.
This is the so-called ruthless and afraid of death!
After all, if this battle is lost, there will be no way for the Chu army to survive.
During the march, the two sides soon came together.
Zhang Han's army has already set up a military formation, waiting for the other party.
Although I don't want to fight this battle, since it is unavoidable, I naturally have to go all out.
Although it will lose a lot of troops, it can be regarded as a great achievement to be able to destroy 100,000 enemies.
Knock knock!
On the side of the Chu army, the war drums beat and resounded throughout the whole army.
When the soldiers of the Chu army, who had no way to retreat in the cauldron and sinking the boat, heard the sound of drums, they immediately raised their fighting spirits and raised their swords one after another.
Whining!
At the same time, Zhang Han waved his hand, and a loud horn sounded in the Qin army.
The two armies marched in an orderly manner, lined up in formation, and marched forward.
On the battlefield, an aura of slaughter immediately rose.
When the two sides were two hundred paces apart, there was a shout from the Chu army: "Kill!" ”
Suddenly, the 80,000 Chu army rushed towards the enemy.
"Shoot the arrows!"
"Shoot the arrows!"
The Qin army also fired arrows under his command.
Suddenly, many of the Chu army fell on the way to charge under the screams.
Although many people fell under the first round of arrow rain, the Chu army still held a shield and charged bravely!
The distance of 200 steps is in the blink of an eye.
Finally, the two armies collided together!
Bang bang bang!
