At the end of August of the 37th year of Qin Shi Huang, Kunyang County, Yingchuan County (Ye County, Henan).

A great battle has come to an end, the losers are scattered, and the victors begin to clean up the battlefield and relieve the siege of the "rebel army" in the city.

"I can't believe that we really won!"

Sitting next to an overturned chariot and letting the medics wrap his wounds, Wu Guang was a little distracted.

Looking at the mountains of armor and food in front of him, he admired Wu Zhonghou and Han Xin more and more in his heart!

Recalling that more than half a month ago, when Wu Guang, who was ordered to recruit Chen Ren in Runan, learned that he had been transferred to Han Xin's command and was going to go north to the hinterland of the Central Plains with him, he was resistant in his heart.

At that time, Wu Guang, although he had regained a foothold in Runan and gathered three or four thousand men under his command, was still a small fight, and did not dare to confront Xia Cai's northern army - in June, the shadow of his and Chen Sheng's defeat under Huaiyang City still haunted Wu Guang's heart.

But the elite of the army under Han Xin made Wu Guang look sideways!

This army of 20,000 people is not only well-equipped, not to mention the rabble under Wu Guang, even the Qin army is not comparable, almost everyone is wearing armor, almost all the mules and horses of the Northern Expeditionary Army are also transferred to Han Xin's use, which is considered a mobile force, and the heavy goods are handed over to the mules and horses, and the soldiers can walk fast and walk fifty miles a day......

It is also considered that Han Xin was lucky, it happened that the Chu thief Xiang Ji in the east attacked Huaiyang, attracting almost all the troops of Chen County, and when Xiang Ji and more than 10,000 Qin troops fought a decisive battle under Huaiyang City, Han Xin took the opportunity to occupy Wufang County, defeated the Shangcai defenders, and completely controlled Runan.

Han Xin's dispatch of troops this time is the most important part of Heifu's defense and counterattack strategy, in the words of Hei Dashuai, that is: "a sharp knife inserted into the heart of the enemy".

"Wang Ben's main force has been attracted to Jianghan and Suixian, and the rear must be empty, if a general can be made out of Runan and hit Nanyang Wancheng, then the grain of Guanzhong, Yingchuan and Luoyang will be cut off!"

Wei Wei rescued Zhao, this can be regarded as the best way for Heifu to think of the best way to break the situation when he was just facing Wang Ben, and this mission was naturally handed over to the most capable general under him: Han Xin.

When Han Xin occupied Shangcai, there were two roads in front of him: one was to go directly to the west, cross the Fangcheng Xia Road, and attack Wancheng.

This Nanyang County is originally a large basin, with the Qinling Mountains in the west, the remaining veins of Daba Mountain in the south, Dabie Mountain in the southeast, Funiu Mountain in the north, and Tongbai Mountain in the east. Among them, between Funiu Mountain and Tongbai Mountain, there are many intermittent hills, which is the "Fangcheng Summer Road".

Because the fractures between these hills are too large and too many, they are not conducive to defense. Therefore, in the Spring and Autumn Period, after the Chu people finally seized the Nanyang Basin, they thought of a way to build a Great Wall here to connect those dirt mountains for defense.

This is the famous Fang City of Chu, because the Fang City is a city, and the Han River is a pool, which has become a barrier in the north of Jing Chu.

Although later, Fangcheng was broken by the combined forces of Zhao, Wei, Han and Sanjin, Nanyang was also occupied by Korea, and decades later it was captured by Qin. But from beginning to end, Fangcheng has been maintained. In this war, Fangcheng also became Wang Ben's eastern defense line, there were 20,000 people guarding the north and south passes of Fangcheng, and after learning that Heifu sent a partial division out of Runan, Nanyang County Shou also immediately led the army out of Wan to Fangcheng to defend the palace.

Seeing that the first-line army of Fangcheng was gathered, Han Xin did not take a shortcut, but took a long detour: he led his army straight north, entered the territory of Yingchuan County, and occupied Wuyang County (Wuyang, Henan......

So Wu Guang and the others had to hurriedly put down the rice bowl in their hands and continue to march north.

It didn't matter if Han Xin went north, but he frightened the county guards and lieutenants of Nanyang and Yingchuan.

It should be known that Wang Ben concentrated 200,000 troops in Nanyang, and spent 300,000 stone of grain per month, which could not be supplied by Nanyang County alone, and he still needed to transport grain from three places.

One of them is Guanzhong, take Wuguan Road, but because of the long distance, the cost along the way is too great, and only 50,000 stones can be transported every month.

Then there is Luoyang, go south to Wancheng in Luyang, and 100,000 stones can be transported every month.

And the most important thing is the grain of Aocang, as the largest granary of the Qin Dynasty in the Kanto, Ao Cang, which stored millions of stones, set out south to Yingchuan, and then passed through Kunyang and Yexian to enter Nanyang County - this is also the reason why Wang Ben would rather give up many counties in Kanto, but asked Yingchuan not to lose!

At present, Han Xin captured Wuyang County, which was only dozens of miles away from the Qin army's grain road, and sent light soldiers to burn and plunder the grain team, and for a while, the grain trucks were parked in Xiangcheng, and they did not dare to go to Kunyang again.

In order to eliminate this great trouble, the lieutenant of Nanyang County had to leave Fangcheng and go north with 20,000 men, while the Qin army of Yingchuan County was also ordered to go south from Yangzhai, hoping to encircle Han Xin in Yedi.

Fighter planes are always fleeting, and at this moment, the Korean remnants in Kunyang County heard that a "righteous army" had entered Yingchuan, and they couldn't hold back, so they staged an anti-Qin riot, killed officials, and occupied the county seat.

The lieutenant of Yingchuan had to besiege Kunyang first, which was a fatal mistake, and after Han Xin learned the news, he immediately led the whole army to the north and broke out a big battle with the Yingchuan army under the city of Kunyang......

The result was the current situation, the Northern Expeditionary Army was victorious, the Yingchuan Army was defeated, and it was dispersed to the north.

Wu Guang wrapped his injured arm, immediately rushed to Han Xin and Licang, and happily reported his merits: "General Han Pi, we have captured a lot of grain, which is enough for the soldiers to have a full meal!" ”

In order to open up the situation before the two Qin armies in the north and south were encircled, when leaving Shangcai, Han Xin ordered everyone to abandon most of their baggage and advance lightly, and the significance of winning this battle greatly boosted the morale of the doubtful soldiers.

"General Han Pi is really like a god with soldiers."

Li Cang also had to admire, as a lieutenant, when he was on Cai, he advocated marching westward and storming Fangcheng Xia Dao, thinking that he would not hesitate to sacrifice this partial division to relieve the siege for Heifu.

But Han Shin rejected his suggestion.

The two had a big fight over the route, but now it seems that Han Xin's strategy is right.

Han Xin saw that Li Cang was finally convinced, and he was a little proud in his heart, and said with a smile: "The art of war, so those who are good at moving the enemy, the form, the enemy will follow it, rather than fighting against the enemy on the battlefield chosen by the enemy, it is better to move and lead them by the nose, this is the tactics of Marquis Wu Zhong when he captured Nanjun, Han Xin is just learning from him." ”

Li Cang bowed: "Kunyang is the place where the north and the south pass are connected, and seizing this place is equivalent to cutting off the most important grain route of Wang Ben's army, and the surrounding rebel army may not be able to sit still." ”

Han Xin said: "This also means that we are afraid that we will be surrounded and intercepted by the rebel army in the Central Plains!" ”

"With General Han Pi in command, there is no fear, as many as you come, you will destroy as many as you want!"

Li Cang was happy in his heart, because the bigger the movement they made, the more likely Wang Ben Lao'er was to withdraw his troops and return to help, and he was worthy of the marshal.

Han Xin turned his head to look at Kunyang, which was in ruins after being besieged for a few days: "Don't talk about this, let's go to the city!" ”

Kunyang was besieged by the Yingchuan army for several days, but the Korean resistance in the city was fierce, and the city was not broken, but the casualties were also heavy.

When the Northern Expeditionary Army and the Yingchuan Army fought, the people in the city were still a little hesitant, but when they saw that the Northern Expeditionary Army was fighting to the death with the banner of "Han", they had some beautiful misunderstandings, and they were comrades who came to return to Korea!

As a result, someone really led the troops out of the city and attacked back and forth, which led to the rout of the Yingchuan army.

Seeing that the war was over, those Koreans who went out of the city to help also came to visit, the leader was a white-faced man eight feet five inches long, about thirty years old, dressed in military uniform, heroic, and a bit of aristocratic temperament, just then he fought bravely, killed a lot of Yingchuan soldiers, and was still stained with blood.

This person was stopped by the guards, and only after unloading the sword did he have to get closer, and he asked Wu Guang and the others where they came from, but everyone was silent, only knowing that they were full of Chen Chu accents.

At this moment, the Korean leader looked at Han Xin, Li Cang and the others again, and his eyes were finally fixed on the banner of the word "Han" behind them, so he no longer had doubts, and bowed his hand to Han Xin with some emotion:

"Han Xin, I've seen the general!"

Han Xin was a little stunned, and thought that he had heard it wrong, and Wu Guang and others on the side thought that it was really disrespectful for him to call General Han's name, so they shouted loudly.

Han Xin stopped them and asked the man again:

"You...... What is it called? ”

The white-faced man was also confused, so he could only say again:

"My name is Han Xin, the grandson of King Han Xiang, I have been waiting for many days, and I finally hope that the righteous master of Chu Di is here, and there is hope for the recovery of Han!"
