Shame! An unprecedented shame!

It's not that Zhang Han hasn't suffered defeats before, and it's not that no enemy has created a battlefield miracle of defeating the strong with the weak, but this sneak attack battle outside Fanyang City is definitely the most humiliating and humiliating battle that Zhang Han lost! The strength of the enemy is more than ten times, the weapons and equipment are superior, and the elite soldiers are almost equal to the total strength of the enemy, but the Qin army actually lost, not only was the enemy directly killed into the camp, but also suffered a lot of personnel and material losses, and lost face to grandma's house, and even lost to grandma's house!

After the war, the two or five hundred commanders of the Qin army who were on duty at the camp gate last night were beheaded on the spot, and his boss Nei Shi Bao was also beheaded with fifty military sticks, and more than 20 middle-level generals of the Qin army who were ineffective in restraining the army or took the lead in escaping, and more than 20 bloody human heads were also hung directly on the gate of the Qin army camp.

These middle-level generals of the Qin army who were beheaded by Zhang Han were actually a little wronged, Feng Zhongjun's sneak attack last night not only surprised all the Qin army generals, but also attacked like fire, the speed was extremely fast, and the attitude of daring to fight and rush was extremely resolute, but the Qin army soldiers were unprepared, many people were buried by the collapsed military tent before they even had time to pick up the weapons around them, and then they were stabbed to death and hacked to death, not to mention putting on heavy armor and assembling to fight, no matter which army was replaced, it would not be better than the Qin army last night in such a situation.

It's useless to be wronged, seeing that Zhang Han is angry, including Dong Fei and Sima Xin, the two No. 2 and No. 3 of the Qin Army, they didn't dare to say anything, and watched Zhang Han kill people to vent their anger, not to mention other Qin army generals. However, Zhang Han was still furious, and shouted again: "Order the whole army, pack up the camp at full speed, reorganize the team, prepare for battle, send troops this afternoon, and go to Feng Zhongpifu to settle accounts and take revenge!" ”

"No!"

The generals of the Qin army did not dare to question Zhang Han's decision, they all hugged their fists together and sang a promise, and then hurriedly rushed out to carry out the order, but Sima Xin did not move, or after all the generals of the Qin army left the camp of the Chinese army, Sima Xin said cautiously: "General, Feng Zhongpifu is despicable and sneak attack, extremely rude, it is not false to find him, with the strength of our army, it is definitely not a big problem to defeat him in a strong frontal attack, but the general has not thought about it, if Feng Zhongpifu sees that the opportunity is not good, he immediately retreats to Jishui, or even retreats directly to Wenshui, Isn't the great plan we painstakingly devised to lure the enemy in vain? ”

"Then watch Feng Zhong Pifu continue to be arrogant under our noses?" Zhang Han roared angrily: "We lost so humiliating last night, if we don't settle accounts with him and take revenge, where will we put our face?" ”

"But what about our plan to lure the enemy?" Sima Xin warned again: "Feng Zhongpifu was forced away by us, and we gave way to the ferry again, deliberately allowing the main force of the Chu thieves to cross the river easily, can Xiang Liang suspect that the Fanyang battlefield is a trap?" He was vigilant, and combined with the special terrain east of Fanyang and the upcoming rainy season, he was afraid that we would soon find out what we really wanted. ”

Zhang Han finally closed his mouth, but after thinking about it carefully, Zhang Han shook his head vigorously and said: "It is not a way to continue to indulge Feng Zhongpifu's arrogance, we suffered such a big loss last night, and our strength has the absolute upper hand, so we still don't send troops to take revenge, and it is even more unreasonable to let Feng Zhongpifu continue to protect the road to the army for Xiang Liang's old thief." Xiang Liang's old thief found that this was wrong, and it was also possible to see through our army's intentions. ”

After thinking about it carefully, he found that this was also the case, Sima Xin couldn't help frowning, and said in an embarrassed tone: "Yes, if we don't go to Feng Zhongpifu for revenge, it is indeed more unreasonable, and it is easier to make Xiang Liang's old thief suspicious." It's difficult to do it now, it's not a fight, it's not a fight, how can we lure the main force of the Chu thieves into the Fanyang battlefield? ”

Zhang Han was silent, sat down and racked his brains, and didn't say a word for a long time, and finally, when the soldiers came in to report that the camp had been cleared, Zhang Han slowly spoke, and said: "Feng Zhongpiff's problem is too difficult to handle, and our plan to annihilate the main force of the Chu thieves by water attack is probably difficult to work." It is best for us to make a decisive decision immediately, lead the main force of the Chu thieves to continue westward, and go to other battlefields that are beneficial to our army to fight a decisive battle with the main force of the Chu thieves. ”

"I'm afraid it's hard." Sima Xin continued to pour cold water and said: "Fan Yang is already a little far away from the rear of Huaisi of the Chu thieves, and it will be difficult for us to continue to lure the enemy westward. ”

"It's okay, I've already thought about it." Zhang Han said coldly: "As long as I make Xiang Liang old thief feel that I am angry, or even close to madness, Xiang Liang old thief will definitely seize the fighter plane to chase and kill to the end, and strive to completely defeat our army." ”

"That's a good idea, but how do you do it?" Sima Xin asked.

"It's not difficult!" Zhang Han replied categorically, gritted his teeth and said: "In this battle, we just need to fight as much as we make mistakes!" ”

After making up his mind, just after noon, Zhang Han decisively personally led the main force of the 100,000 Qin army to attack, overwhelmingly killing Feng Zhong's camp, the news was reported to Feng Zhong, Feng Zhong, who successfully stabbed the hornet's nest, did not dare to slack off, and quickly organized the army to immediately prepare for retreat, not daring to touch the stone with eggs, and fighting head-on with the second-rate army of the Chu army under his command and the main force of the Qin army. At the same time, Feng Zhong did not have to be afraid of being held accountable by Xiang Liang for taking the initiative to give up the ferry position - relying on more than 10,000 second-line troops to draw the main force of the Qin army with a full face, and successfully provoked the main force of the Qin army to almost launch a counterattack, no matter how much Xiang Liang picked a bone in the egg, he would never find a word to blame Feng Zhong.

The battle was therefore one-sided from the beginning, and the generals of the Qin army, who had lost face, were all brave, all of them scrambled to be the first, and the soldiers of the Qin army rushed from three directions to the camp of Feng Zhongjun, who was camped against the pontoon bridge and ferry, and Feng Zhongjun was quickly transporting heavy military supplies across the river, and on the other hand, relying on the thin support of the battalion defense, from the very beginning was beaten by the Qin army who was determined to take revenge only to parry, and had no power to fight back.

After all, the hastily established camp defense is relatively thin, and the fierce battle has only been more than half an hour, Feng Zhongjun's camp was broken through by the Qin army head-on, seeing that the situation is not good, Feng Zhong can only quickly discard the baggage, and fled on the pontoon bridge with the rear army in embarrassment, the Qin army soldiers chased closely, and did not hesitate to step on the pontoon bridge to follow the pursuit, forcing Feng Zhongjun's soldiers to quickly cut off the pontoon bridge to block the Qin army's pursuit, but even so, there are still four pontoon bridges that were successfully captured by the Qin soldiers who sacrificed their lives to attack, and failed to completely cut off the Qin army's main force across the river. The red-eyed soldiers of the Qin army also crossed the river quickly on these four pontoon bridges, and continued to hunt down and kill Feng Zhongcunfu, the clown who had brought them great shame last night.

"Zhang Handpifu is crazy! Evacuate! Keep withdrawing! ”

I never thought that Zhang Han would be stimulated so crazy, Feng Zhong, who had caused a big disaster, did not dare to dream of blocking the main force of the Qin army in a state of madness on the west bank of Jishui, and led the army to rush to the Wenshui ferry behind him, the Qin army roared and roared and continued to pursue at full speed, not only forcing Feng Zhong to throw away all the military baggage and flee eastward, but also taking advantage of Feng Zhongjun's panicked opportunity to cross the river, he once again captured several Wenshui pontoon bridges that Feng Zhong's army had not had time to destroy, and continued to advance after Feng Zhong's defeated army with momentum.

"Brother Han, what is Zhang Handpifu crazy about this time? He should have known that our main force was about to arrive, so why did he let his army chase us so closely? ”

Zhang Han's deliberate madness This time, even the soldiers surnamed Han were deceived, so that the soldiers surnamed Han gave the wrong answer to Feng Zhong, and said: "It should be that he lost his face too much last night, and he was completely angry." ”

"He's mad." Feng Zhong smirked smirked as he rode his horse to escape, and said, "Our main force is about to arrive, the more crazy and impulsive he becomes, the easier our next battle will be." ”

It was also a coincidence that when Feng Zhong finished saying this, the front suddenly covered the sky, and a group of Chu cavalry suddenly rushed head-on, Feng Zhong was overjoyed when he saw it, and quickly ordered the army to turn around and fight to the death, and joined forces with the Chu army reinforcements who arrived in time to launch a counterattack.

The situation on the battlefield was quickly reversed by the Chu army, first Xiang Yu led the Chu cavalry to rush into the waist of the Qin army's pursuers, successfully cutting off the front and back contact of the Qin army's pursuers, and then the Chu army's infantry brigade also arrived quickly, and joined forces with Feng Zhongjun to quickly defeat the Qin army's pursuers, and in turn pursued the Qin army's pursuers who were too far away to the west bank of Wenshui, until the Qin army was forced to cut off the pontoon bridge.

In the afternoon of the same day, Xiang Liang personally led the main force of the Chu army to the west bank of Wenshui and joined Feng Zhongjun. If you wish, I will recommend you to the Admiral as soon as I see him. ”

Feng Zhong's previous preventive injections played a role, considering his humble status, even if he was personally recommended by Feng Zhong, it was absolutely impossible to be reused by Xiang Liang. The soldier surnamed Han thought about it again and again before he replied: "Don't worry, let me think about it again." ”

Hearing that Feng Zhong had pulled the main force of the Qin army out of the ground last night, all the generals of the Chu army were amazed and admired, Xiang Liang laughed even more, and personally helped Feng Zhong and praised loudly: "Amazing!" Terrific! The old man has the help of General Feng, and he is really like a tiger with wings, like a tiger with wings! Reward! Reward! The officers and men of our army under General Feng will be rewarded twice as much this time! ”

After rewarding Feng Zhong and his subordinates, Xiang Liang, who was excited, promoted Feng Zhong to a two-level knighthood on the spot and was named a general, so that Feng Zhong's official position was on par with Xiang Yu, and all the generals of the Chu army were envious, and they all said hello to Feng Zhong, Xiang Kang also patted Feng Zhong's shoulder and smiled: "Big brother, it seems that it won't be long before my position as a rear general will be given to you!" Do a good job, strive to be like me, and let the general give you a title! ”

When the generals of the Chu army rushed to congratulate Feng Zhong, a soldier suddenly came from outside the tent to report, saying that Zhang Han had sent an envoy with a war letter, asking Xiang Liang to fight to the death in the western suburbs of Fanyang the day after tomorrow. Xiang Liang was not in a hurry to summon the envoy of the Qin army when he heard this, but just asked the Chu army civil and military who was present: "Generals, as soon as our army arrived in Wenshui, Zhang Handpifu immediately sent a letter to make an appointment for battle, what do you think about this?" ”

"I'm afraid of fraud." Xiang Kang was the first to reply: "Zhang Handpifu obviously has two rivers to defend, Jishui and Wenshui, and he does not intend to defend according to the danger, but takes the initiative to let go of the ferry and send a book to fight, I am afraid that he has another trick, wants to lead our army through Jishui and Wenshui, and then take the opportunity to take trouble from it, we should deal with it carefully." ”

"Brother, why are you getting more and more timid?" Xiang Yu said with some dissatisfaction: "In this situation, what else can Zhang Handpifu deceive?" It's nothing more than taking advantage of the opportunity of us crossing the river to attack halfway, as long as we send the elite to cross the river first, and be careful, what advantage can Zhang Handpifu take? ”

"Brother, it's not that I'm timid, it's that this thing is too weird." Xiang Kang replied: "If we are not good at battle, Zhang Handpifu took the initiative to make an appointment to fight, but to play to our strengths and avoid our weaknesses. But the battle in Luxian has proved that our battle ability is not under the main force of the tyrannical Qin, Zhang Handpifu is not sure, why do you want to ask us to fight head-on? ”

"Maybe Zhang Handpifu is dizzy." Ji Bu, who had a similar interest with Xiang Yu, pointed out: "Today's battle is proof, it is impossible for Zhang Handpifu not to know that our main force will arrive today, but he still let his army chase General Feng Zhong reluctantly, and he is determined to give him shame, and he has obviously lost his mind." It should also be reasonable to want to fight with us head-on. ”

The generals of the Chu army echoed one after another, including Feng Zhong, who felt that Zhang Han had been completely dizzy, and for the first time did not give Xiang Kang help, and stood on Ji Bu's side, Xiang Kang had no choice but to remind Xiang Liang that he should be careful. After thinking about it again and again, Xiang Liang ordered to summon the envoy of the Qin army, and personally approved the decisive battle as promised in Zhang Han's handwritten tactics.

Seeing that Xiang Liang promised a decisive battle, Xiang Kang, who had never liked to fight head-on, of course sighed, Xiang Yu, Huan Chu and Ji Bu and other fierce generals of the Chu army were overjoyed, and rushed to Xiang Liang to ask for orders to be the vanguard, and then it was not surprising that Xiang Liang really handed over the pioneer responsibility to his favorite nephew Xiang Yu, Xiang Yu was overjoyed, but he didn't notice that the soldiers surnamed Han who were waiting outside the tent were carefully observing him, and said in his heart: "Although this person is brave and unstrategic, he is obviously more loved by Xiang Liang than Xiang Kang, If he can obey my words like Feng Zhong, he would be an object to consider. ”

However, Xiang Kang's reminder was not useless, early the next morning, the main force of the Chu army first carefully crossed Wenshui, bullied the Jishui ferry to go down to the village, and then immediately built a large number of pontoon bridges so that the Chu army could enter the decisive battle. The Qin army did not move, watching the Chu army build a bridge and open the way, dredge the road to the outside of the barracks.

In the early morning of the third day, the Chu army began to cross the Jishui to the west, first establishing a solid blocking position on the west bank of the Jishui, and then dispatching the main force to cross the river and calmly and carefully set foot on the west bank of the Jishui. The Qin army, on the other hand, kept its promise, and did not dispatch its troops until three o'clock in the morning, striding over to fight the main force of the Chu army head-on.

Xiang Kang, who is not good at battle, is still left by Xiang Liang to guard the camp and the ferry pontoon bridge to protect the retreat of the main force of the Chu army, but unlike the battle in Luxian, the Chu army is not only in a psychological advantage, but also with the Chu army's partial division, which was surrounded and unable to participate in the battle before, and expanded the battle strength to more than 65,000 people, so Xiang Liang did not put the turtle formation last time, and directly arranged a phalanx with both attack and defense.

Under the command of Zhang Han's banner, the two wings of the Qin army were outflanked and attacked the two weak flanks of the Chu army's formation, but unfortunately Xiang Liang's battle experience was far above Zhang Han, and the elite army was deployed on both wings of the Chu army early, lined up in dense horizontal formations, first with bows and crossbows to meet the Qin army's charging soldiers, and then fiercely brandished spears and halberds, beating the oncoming Qin army to the head of the rat.

Unable to move the two wings of the Chu army, Zhang Han could only attack the back of the Chu army instead, sending a mixed army of chariots and cavalry infantry to detour back behind the Chu army, and at the same time attack head-on, in a vain attempt to flank the phalanx of the Chu army in front and rear. However, when Xiang Liang's command flag waved, Xiang Liang suddenly led the cavalry of the Chu army out of the formation, rushed the Qin army to the army behind the Chu army, and defeated the mixed army of the Qin army in a fierce battle, and achieved the defensive merit.

In the next battle, Xiang Liang, who got Xiang Yan's personal transmission, gave Zhang Han a military lesson in front of thousands of troops and horses, under the command of Xiang Liang's command banner, the officers and soldiers of the Chu army either changed their formations in an orderly and rapid manner, or took the initiative to attack, and the Qin army that was constantly rushing back again and again, and the command of the battle made Zhang Han dazzled, sighing to himself, and changing the formation as a whole in the fierce battle, gradually transforming the Chu army formation into several formations that were easy to concentrate on fighting, and advancing head-on, directly towards the Qin army's battle array.

In order to achieve the purpose of luring the enemy, and in order to try his best to win, Zhang Han did not deliberately give up his efforts, in the face of the slowly advancing Chu army several formations, Zhang Han continued to transfer troops to strengthen the frontal defense, and once divided his troops to attack the Chu army ferry, in a vain attempt to cut off the Chu army's retreat and shake the heart of the Chu army. But it is a pity that the surprise attack team of the Qin army was defeated head-on by the strictly organized Xiang Kang's department, and the efforts were in vain, and at the same time, the dense array of the Chu army was like the top of Mount Tai, which pressed the Qin army to the point of hard to breathe.

When approaching the unitary in the afternoon, as in history, the main force of the Qin army under the command of Zhang Han finally could not stop the frontal attack of Xiang Liang's army, the front of the Chinese army was directly torn open a big hole, the soldiers of the Chu army took the opportunity to kill into the formation, without Xiang Liang's command directly changed into a conical formation, the Qin army was in chaos, and they scattered to the two wings to avoid the edge of the Chu army, Zhang Han saw that the situation was extreme, and had to quickly order Mingjin, and rushed back to the camp before the Chu army completely cut the Qin army frontally, Xiang Liang took the opportunity to wave the army to chase and kill, and the harvest was great, and the Qin army was defeated and was forced to flee back to the camp to defend the camp, paid a considerable price, and also relied on the cover of the army left behind in the camp, so it was not easy to withdraw the main force to the camp.

After winning again, the Chu army was thunderous again, Xiang Liang was even more overjoyed, and pointed at the Qin army's camp with a horsewhip and laughed: "Zhang Han Xiao'er, you can't fight our army in the battle of wits, and you can't fight our army in the battle array, the old man wants to see, what kind of tricks can you play this time?" ”

After laughing, taking advantage of the fact that the sky was not yet completely dark, Xiang Liang immediately ordered the troops to be collected, and said: "Mingjin, collect the troops and return to the camp, and come to Zhang Han Xiao'er tomorrow to settle accounts, this time, this time, we must not let this puppet slip away again!" ”
