Xiang Wu, the king of Chu, was furious by Chu Tianxiu's words.

What does it mean that a piece of boat is not allowed to cross the river?

What does it mean to return to the state of Chu and write a book of surrender by yourself?

Xiao Duhou brought 6,000 Danyang soldiers, and he dared to shout so loudly with the 100,000 army of the Chu State. It's just, it's unreasonable!

He immediately dispatched troops and personally led 50,000 Chu troops, who remained in place on the building boat and confronted the Danyang army on the shore.

He only ordered the ships to be farther away from the shore, about 200 zhang away, to prevent being shelled by small steel cannons on the shore.

This distance can be attacked, and retreat can be defended.

Once the little dusk marquis senses that something is wrong and wants to escape with his troops.

He could immediately order an army of 50,000 to land and pursue as soon as possible.

The other 50,000 Chu troops floated ten miles downstream on thousands of boats. Find a suitable place downstream and start grabbing the beach to shore.

The 50,000 troops went around to the back of the Danyang army and carried out a flanking attack, so that the little dusk marquis was attacked by the enemy on his back and made dumplings directly.

100,000 Chu troops besieged the Danyang army from all sides at the same time.

This is not a clever tactic, that is, the number of bullying the Danyang army is small, and it is impossible to divide troops to guard the riverbank.

Once the 6,000 Danyang troops are also divided, the advantage of dense firepower will be weakened, and it will not be able to resist the Chu army at all, and they will cross the river in many places and points.

Such a tactical arrangement is obviously very stable and undefeated.

"Even if the little dusk marquis is talented, he can't resist the siege of 100,000 troops from all directions."

"However, the Danyang Army's 'Divine Weapon' is quite amazing. After we attack the county seat of Danyang, we can loot the craftsmen and bring them back to the Chu State to build a batch of gunpowder guns. ”

All the generals said.

"That's nature! If our Chu army can obtain this magic weapon and equip an army of 100,000, it will be enough to sweep the world! ”

The King of Chu couldn't help but feel relieved.

He sat down on the deck of the ship, in a pair of tiger skin seats, and drank refreshments.

...

Chu Tianxiu saw that in the middle of the river, the ships of the 100,000 army of the King of Chu were divided into two, half of them were left, and the other half of the ships were floating downstream, and he couldn't help but frown and jump.

Is this to divide the troops to cross the river?

The King of Chu is obviously making a huge mistake!

The king of Chu must have thought that he only had 6,000 Danyang soldiers in his hands and could not compete with the Chu army, so he divided into two and crossed the river separately.

But in fact, Li Yu was leading 20,000 cavalry and 30,000 infantry to lie in ambush in the woods a few miles behind the river, waiting for fighters.

The Chu army was disjointed, and it was difficult to support each other. Oh

It is completely possible to eat the 50,000 Chu troops who came ashore in one go.

Chu Tianxiu thought of this, and immediately said, "Zu'er, go and inform the county lord and stay put." Let 50,000 Chu troops go ashore to fight, and don't let them escape back to the river. ”

"Yes!"

Zu'er immediately went to a forest a few miles away to give an order, telling Li Yu's 50,000-strong army to stay where it was, waiting for the opportunity to fight.

...

On the banks of the great river.

The 6,000 Danyang soldiers remained silent in place, holding powder guns in their hands, and aimed at the surface of the river behind the mile-long horse.

River.

The king of Chu and the 50,000 Chu army also did not move in the river, confronting the Danyang army on the shore.

The sun is scorching.

The treetops by the river screamed desperately.

Chu Tianxiu took out a water hyacinth and gulped a big sip of water.

I came out in the morning, fought a battle, and didn't eat until noon, so I could only take out a piece of pancake from my pocket and take a few bites to satisfy my hunger.

Under the confrontation between the two armies, it was obvious that there was no way to bury the pot and make rice, so they could only eat two bites.

The Danyang soldiers also took out their dry food and nibbled on a few bites.

On the tall building boat, Xiang Wu, the king of Chu, sat on a comfortable seat, leisurely eating pastries on the table, drinking hot tea, pointing at Chu Tianxiu, and scolding with a smile:

"Little Dusk Hou, why do you say you are suffering?

Eating dry food, carrying thousands of soldiers and horses, guarding the world for the emperor? The emperor Lao'er himself was in Jinling City, and he didn't dare to come out, but he let you die. I won't give you any more soldiers.

This king cherishes talents, as long as you are willing to serve this king, this king is not to blame in the past. still crown you as the third duke and hereditary prince.

Otherwise, when the king's army surrounds you, you will be defeated and become a prisoner, and you will not look good. Even if this king is generous and doesn't kill you, at most he will give you a little faint marquis to continue to be in front of you. ”

"King Chu, it's not that Benhou looks down on you. You have a rather sour appearance, a gray complexion, and at first glance you are a short-lived prince, not like you can be the emperor's life! ”

Chu Tianxiu said with a smile.

"Hmph, I don't know how to lift! After a stick of incense, this king looks at how hard you are a duck mouth?! ”

Xiang Wu, the king of Chu, was eating pastries on the boat, eating and drinking to his heart's content, and patted his stomach with satisfaction.

I waited for half an hour.

However, I saw that on the shore downstream, a huge Chu army had landed and headed towards the Danyang army, preparing to complete the outflanking.

This 50,000-strong Chu army was led by Li Pan, a general under the command of the king of Chu.

There are 10,000 cavalry and 10,000 sword infantry, which are the elite troops of the Chu army.

The Chu army had a total of 30,000 elite soldiers, and there were 20,000 elite soldiers who landed here. There are 10,000 elite archers left, still in the middle of the river, led by the king of Chu himself.

There are also 10,000 knives, shields, and spearmen, but they are all patchwork miscellaneous soldiers, and their combat effectiveness is weak.

Xiang Wu, the king of Chu, couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw his 50,000 soldiers and horses, and was copying the back road of the little dusk marquis.

Once the number of soldiers and horses exceeds tens of thousands, the number of soldiers and horses alone is extremely strong. As many as 50,000 soldiers and horses, of course General Li Pan would not take the Danyang soldiers of only 6,000 people in his eyes.

Before, he was blocked in the river by Xiao Duhou, and he couldn't form a huge infantry attack, so he lost 3,000 soldiers and horses on the beach on the shore.

Now that his 50,000 troops have come ashore, the army is neatly arrayed, which is enough to crush these thousands of Danyang soldiers in one fell swoop.

"Quick, surround the Danyang Army!"

"Catch the little dusk marquis, the bounty is one hundred taels, don't let the little dusk marquis escape!"

Li Pan rode his horse, brandished his knife, and shouted desperately.

The 50,000 cavalry and infantry of the Chu army ran desperately, and surrounded the 6,000 Danyang troops on the bank of the river two or three miles away, in case the Marquis of Xiao Duan took the Danyang soldiers and fled to the Danyang county seat.

Winning the little dusk marquis is the first merit of this battle.

Make a name for yourself today!

...

"Change formation!"

"Round-shaped defensive formation, rejection on the periphery! Block! ”

Of course, Chu Tianxiu didn't run away.

The 6,000 Danyang troops remained in place and began to change formations.

Soon, on all sides of them, a long log resisted the horses, completely surrounded, and tied together with wire.

They can't get out, but it's hard to get in from outside.

The war horse will definitely not be able to rush in.

And it is also difficult for the infantry to drill through the wire that rejects the horse.

Within Ma Wai were 2,000 Danyang soldiers armed with swords and shields, ready to defend. Once the enemy soldiers have rushed past the repulsor, they will rush over and chop.

On the central floor are 4,000 Danyang musketeers, who can shoot 100 paces. The innermost small steel cannon can shoot 300 paces away.

"Yes, yes! These 6,000 Danyang troops have been given full dumplings by Li Pan, the general of this king, look at how arrogant he is Xiao Duhou! ”

Xiang Wu, the king of Chu, was on the boat and saw that on the bank of the river, Li Pan's 50,000 troops were surrounding the 6,000 Danyang army on three sides, and his face couldn't help but be full of joy.
