On the battlefield of Yunguan, the two sides of Qin and Chu fought a tragic battle in Yunguan again, and finally ended with the Chu army returning in vain.

As soon as Zhao Ju returned to the camp, the general guarding the camp walked quickly to Zhao Ju's side and reported: "Zhu Guo, the general of the water division, Pan Xian, has returned to the camp, and the water division has returned from a fiasco, and General Pan Xian is pleading guilty in the camp. ”

Zhao Ju frowned slightly, nodded and responded, "Okay, Ben will know." ”

Walking back to the big tent, Zhao Ju saw at a glance that a general was kneeling on the ground, and his body was already tied with a rope.

Zhao Ju came to the general, and through his embarrassed face, he still recognized this person, it was Pan Xian.

Zhao Ju immediately came to Pan Xian's side to help him up, and then personally untied the rope for Pan Xian, and asked: "General Pan, why is this, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, why is it here." ”

Pan Xian lowered his head in shame and bowed down: "Zhu Guo, the last general was ineffective in command, and the Qin army was defeated and returned, so that more than 30 large ships of the naval division were destroyed, and more than 70 small boats were destroyed. The last general not only has the trust of the negative pillar country, but now the sailor is no longer able to fight, and the plan to attack the mediocre from the sailor has completely failed, so he came to ask for guilt. ”

Zhao Ju was shocked in his heart, although he was not sure whether the sailor could break through the defense line of the Qin army. After all, the leaders of that key army, Zheng Dang and Lu Fengquan, have not been in contact with Chu for nearly a year, and the direct object of their allegiance is not Chu State, and no one can guarantee that they are still loyal to Chu State at this time.

However, the loss of the sailor was so great that it was still unexpected to him.

Thinking about it, Zhao Ju's face turned cold, and he immediately asked: "General Pan, I will remember that the Qin State has no water division in Shangyong, and when you go away from the waterway, as long as you turn around and retreat, the Qin people can't catch up, why is there such a fiasco." ”

Pan Xian paused, then talked about the battle situation, and finally rejoiced: "Fortunately, the Qin people have no sailors, and most of the soldiers jumped into the Han River to escape, and then were fished out by the ships downstream." Therefore, although the ships of the sailors were almost destroyed, the loss of the non-commissioned officers was only more than 10%. ”

"The defeat of Hanshui is not a mistake in the general's command, but the general's unknown knowledge." Zhao Ju let out a long sigh, then picked up Pan Xian and said comfortingly: "General Pan, please get up, this battle will be self-pleaking to the king." ”

"General Xie!" Pan Xian bowed down movingly.

The sailor suffered such a fiasco, if Zhao Ju did not step forward to resist it, with his small body, he would not be able to withstand it at all, and I am afraid that he could only commit suicide to apologize to the king of Chu.

At this time, Zhao Ju remembered the army led by Huan Zang.

According to Pan Xian's account, the Qin army that participated in the battle in Hanshui this time had as many as five or six thousand people, plus the Qin army in Yunguan and Lingshan, there were not many Qin troops in various places.

If there is a rebellion in Shangyong counties at this time, there is a great chance of success.

Now that the Qin army has arrived in Hanshui, it is no longer possible to let them leave easily, at least not to let the three thousand Qin troops who were originally defending in Hanshui leave easily.

Thinking about it, he pulled up Pan Xian again and said, "General Pan, I wonder if the general can fight again now?" ”

Pan Xian immediately bowed his hand and said: "Please give the general an order to attack Yunguan tomorrow, and the last general is willing to lead the soldiers of the water division to be the vanguard." ”

Zhao Ju smiled and shook his head: "The general has this fighting heart, and the general is very relieved, but in tomorrow's battle, it is not for the general to attack Yunguan, but for the general to go to Hanshui again." ”

As he spoke, seeing Pan Xian's face stiffen, he immediately smiled and said: "It's not for the general to break through the defense line of the Qin army, but to let the general show his face in front of the Qin army, and you can't let the Qin army retreat calmly." ”

When Pan Xian heard Zhao Ju's explanation, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then replied loudly: "No! ”

After Pan Xian left, a general immediately walked in from outside the tent: "General, General Huan has a messenger coming." ”

When Zhao Ju heard this, he responded excitedly: "Hurry, pass it on." ”

"No."

Then, after listening to the messenger's account, Zhao Ju's fists struck each other, and he laughed and said, "It's done!" ”

Next.

Zhao Ju led the army to Yunguan, and saw that the Yunguan city wall was densely covered with flags, and sneered: "Order, set up a formation, and prepare to attack the city." ”

"No!"

In a short time, tens of thousands of people set up a formation, and then, with the sound of war drums, two thousand Chu troops went to Yunguan to kill.

Zhao Ju stared intently at Yunguan, saw the vanguard of the Chu army enter the range of the Qin army, and then killed in front of Yunguan, and then set up a ladder and climbed the city wall, but never saw the Qin army resist.

"The Qin people have run away!"

Zhao Ju was stunned, and suddenly felt uncomfortable in his heart, as if he had been holding back the strength for a long time, and punched him in the air, feeling very uncomfortable.

Just when the gate of Yunguan was slowly opened, a soldier came quickly: "General, the Qin army in Yunguan has disappeared, our army has captured Yunguan, please show the general." ”

Zhao Ju nodded, watching Yun Guan's thoughts instantly spread.

Now that the two counties of Changli Yun County have been recaptured by our Chu State, there is no news about the three counties in the south of the mediocre land.

However, the Chu people everywhere were opposed, and the Qin people did not have an advantage in troops and could not get the support of the people, so they would not dare to divide their troops to defend the three places.

So...

Zhao Ju looked at the southwest and smiled slightly, if the Qin people still have a place to garrison, then it must be mediocre.

Thinking about it, he immediately ordered: "Pass my general order, leave five hundred people to guard Yunguan, and the others immediately advance to Shangyong." ”

"No."

"Send an order to Yun County and Changli County, so that the two places will immediately raise their armies and go to Shangyong."

"No."

"Order the sailor, let General Pan rush to Shangyong as soon as possible to join Ben General."

"No."

As soon as the military order was given, the army immediately went up.

Two days later.

Shangyong City.

When Song Mo returned to Shangyong, he comforted Zhao Ping to be already in Shangyong.

"General Zhao, you will return to Shangyong first, I don't know what the situation is in the city now? Whether the people in the city are stable. ”

Zhao Ping said coldly: "The general can rest assured, the day before yesterday, the Chu people rebelled, but fortunately, the general left enough troops in Shangyong City, so the Chu people failed to succeed." The day before yesterday and yesterday, our army washed the blood of the rich families and nobles in the city once, and now the Chu people in the city are very honest. ”

Song Mo breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, in the past two days, he was most worried not about the loss of Shangyong, but the failure of the plan to lure the snake out of the hole.

If those Chu people who are full of hope for the Chu State are still lurking in Shangyong, he can't stay in Shangyong.

Thinking about it, Song Mo let out a long breath and asked again, "How about the two counties of Fangling and Wuling?" ”

Zhao Ping's face was quite heavy and said: "General Hui, the spies came to report yesterday that Fang County had been lost three days ago, as for Wuling, because the general was near Wuling at the end of the day before yesterday, the Chu people in Wuling did not dare to act. Now..."

Before he finished speaking, a soldier walked in quickly: "Report to the general, another person outside the city who claims to be the commander of Wuling County is leading two hundred defeated soldiers to call the door." ”

The two of them froze when they heard this.
