"How can such a situation be won in one battle? If our army wins, the best situation is only for the Han army to withdraw from the two states of Dong and Lu, so that it will no longer have the power to expand within a few years, and if our army is defeated, the Han army will be able to fight down and completely control the three states of Dong, Lu and Huai, and if you want to win in one battle, unless..."

Wang Hu took a step forward and said eagerly: "Unless Liu De dies, there will be a chance of reversal." ”

"That's right!"

Fan Ji affirmed Wang Hu's statement, and said: "Liu De is in the prime of life, not a mediocre lord who rests on his laurels, but a Ming Jun who aspires to the world, how can he lose his ambition to whip the world because of a temporary defeat?" ”

"Liu De is so pro-Zheng, this is his advantage and his disadvantage, he is too confident, so confident that he no longer puts the heroes of the world in his eyes, so I designed such a situation, fighting against the water, it is Liu De's opportunity, why not our opportunity?

Although I let the Duke of Qi line up with his back, but there is General Zuo's Tianlong Army in the rear as a support, it is not without a way out, as long as the Duke of Qi can inspire the morale of the army and fight to the death, after General Zuo outflanks the rear, he can completely surround Liu De's army to death. And Liu De will have no escape.

As soon as Liu De died, his sons were young, there must be internal troubles in the Han country, and the border generals were not well informed, so they must be suspicious and support the army to protect themselves, and the foundation established by Liu De in several years will fall apart in an instant, and at that time, it will be our opportunity.

In the end, even if Liu De escaped with his life, the main army was lost, and within five years, it would not be able to recover its vitality, and in these five years, we could consolidate Huaizhou, go south to Yangzhou, level the southern states and counties, and divide the world with the Han Kingdom. ”

"Master Fan has such insight into people's hearts, but the admiration in the hearts of his disciples cannot be expressed."

Wang Ju was called the most outstanding disciple under Fan Ji by Fan Ji, of course, he was quite wise, and after Fan Ji's explanation, he already understood it in his heart, and he was immediately convinced.

Wang Hu finally said: "With the ability of the Duke of Qi to unify the army, relying on the courage of all the soldiers to defeat the Han army is just around the corner. ”

At this time, a sentry suddenly came to report: "Strategist, I have found a trace of the enemy thirty miles away, and Your Highness has ordered me to summon you to the camp to discuss the military aircraft." ”

"The old man is going over!"

Fan Ji responded.

By the time Fan Ji led Wang Hu back to the Chinese army's big tent, many generals, including Qi Gong Xiang Yu, had already arrived.

Xiang Yu saw Fan Ji enter the tent and take a seat, so he said loudly to the soldiers: "The scout just came to report, found the traces of the enemy, and even clashed with our sentry cavalry, killing and wounding several people, it seems that His Royal Highness the Duke of Han is already a little impatient!" ”

Then Xiang Yu directly ordered: "Xiang Tuo, you lead a team of cavalry to help me greet Han Gong!" ”

"The last general commands!"

A burly man shouted when he stepped out of the ranks.

Then Xiang Yu instructed a few more specific matters, and asked the soldiers to go down to prepare.

"Please stay with Fan Gong!"

Xiang Yu spoke out to keep Fan Ji.

"The old minister is here!"

Xiang Yu's originally tall body suddenly became a lot stiffer, Fan Ji was puzzled, but he knew Xiang Yu's personality and didn't ask.

It took a long time for Xiang Yu to speak, and his voice was dull: "The secret agent came to report, Licheng was lost, and Xiang Tu and Xiang Wugu died." ”

"Licheng is lost, the north gate of Dongzhou is opened, and the entire Dongzhou no longer has enough military strength to intercept Zhang Fei, Fan Gong, can there be a strategy?"

Fan Ji listened, but said: "Your Highness, why worry, looking at the overall situation, the real overall situation is here, not in Dongzhou, as long as Huaizhou is not lost, as long as the main force of the Han army here is completely annihilated, then Zhang Fei will definitely retreat, and the counties and counties in Dongzhou will also expel the Han army to welcome His Highness!" ”

On the one hand, Xiang Yu was sad because of Xiang Tu's death, and worried about the loss of Licheng, and now he suddenly said after hearing Fan Ji's words: "But this is the case, even if Dongzhou is lost, what can be done, even if Zhang Fei crosses the Huaishui and captures Huaizhou, as long as Lone conquers the Han army camp and captures Liu De before the news comes, then... Loneliness is destiny! ”

Xiang Yu then stepped down from the main seat, took Fan Ji's hand, and said with emotion: "Fan Gong first assisted my father, and he was supporting me, thanks to Xiang's family... I only know what the public can do today! ”

"The old minister is terrified!"

Fan Ji bowed slightly.

"In this battle, Lone will win!"

......

At the time when Liu De's army set up camp, Xiang Yu sent Xiang Fan to harass the Han army with 5,000 light cavalry to camp, Xiang Yu had no other meaning, and knew that 5,000 light cavalry could not make any achievements in front of the well-guarded Han army, Xiang Yu's ultimate intention was just not to want the Han army to camp so comfortably.

When the generals repelled Xiang Flip and returned to Liu De, it was normal harassment, but Liu De had a moment of restlessness. But I don't know why.

Later, Liu De summoned the generals into the big tent and continued to discuss the military to prevent some omissions.

At dawn on the second day, the Han army had finished resting and recuperated, and began to attack the Qi army, which had abandoned the city and chose to camp on the bank of the river.

With Liu De in charge of the Chinese army, Luo Cheng asked for orders as the vanguard, and the rest of the generals were scattered in various armies, waiting for the orders of the Chinese generals.

And the Qi army also responded quickly, and for a time the army came out, 40,000 soldiers and horses in front of the battle, 10,000 soldiers and horses behind the battle, Fan Ji was the commander of the rear army, but the vanguard was led by Xiang Yu, the noble Duke of Qi.

When Luo Cheng knew that the vanguard of the Qi army was actually Xiang Yu himself, he was immediately overjoyed, and said to Yan Yun Eighteen Riders beside him: "He should have made this great contribution!" ”

Liu De of the Chinese army also learned the news that Xiang Yu was the vanguard, but it is a pity that the army has been formed, and it is not good to mobilize the generals to the front army, because the distance is too far, Liu De can't find Xiang Yu's attributes at all now, but Xiang Yu can build a great reputation, and his martial arts must be good, and the general general may not be able to survive three moves in the hands of Xiang Yu.

Although Luo Cheng's martial arts are high, Liu De still has doubts in his heart, so he said to Dian Wei, Xu Chu, and Li Siye who were guarding him: "The three of you go to the front army, cooperate with Luo Cheng, and kill Xiang Yu, Xiang Yu is so big, if you can kill him in one battle, this battle can end early." ”

Dian Wei said: "As soon as the three of us leave, who will protect your safety?" ”

"It's okay, you also know Lone's martial arts, who can hurt it? What's more, alone in the middle of the Chinese army, with the Tiger Guards on the side, who can rush in? Hurry up! ”

"Yes!"

When the three of them heard it, it was true, although the three of them didn't know why Liu De's martial arts were suddenly so powerful, but they might as well make up for Liu De's ancestors to bless him, help the gods, or be talented, after all, Liu De's grandfather and father are both known for their martial arts, and Liu De, as a descendant of the Liu family, can have this martial arts.

It is very likely that he was weak at the beginning and failed to show it.

The three of them bowed down and went straight to the front army.
