The fire in Qin Pass burned for a whole day, and less than half of the 100,000 soldiers of the Princes' Alliance who entered Qin Pass escaped alive, and more than 50,000 soldiers and horses were lost at once, making the princes cry and wipe their tears, and spray the eighteen generations of Ye Tong's ancestors in their hearts.

The soldiers of the princes' alliance suffered heavy losses, and it took a month and a half to attack Qinguan City, and only lost nearly 70,000 soldiers and horses. Now, more than 50,000 soldiers and horses were lost in one day. The 400,000 army, in fact, is only 250,000, which is to scare people and overreport the strength of more than 100,000 troops.

In the alliance of princes, Xiang Yu lost the lightest soldiers and horses, when attacking Qin Pass, Xiang Yu did not contribute much, entered Qin Pass, with Fan Zeng's reminder, Xiang Yu's soldiers and horses entered Qin Pass not much, only more than 1,000 people. To put it bluntly, in the past two months, the princes' coalition army has lost more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, and Xiang Yu has nothing to do with it.

In this way, the problem arose, and all the princes felt that it was a conspiracy discussed by Xiang Yu and Ye Tong, and the purpose was to make the princes lose their troops and lose their generals. In that way, after arriving in Xianyang, Xiang Yu's soldiers and horses could crush the coalition of the princes, and the princes could only listen to Xiang Yu's words honestly.

The princes thought so in their hearts, but they didn't dare to question Xiang Yu, who made Xiang Yu strong and couldn't beat him! To question, isn't that a search for death?

Fan Zeng admonished: "Yu'er, Ye Tong, the general, has far-reaching strategies, one plan after another, and is a terrible opponent. A fire not only burned 50,000 soldiers and horses of the coalition army, but also separated the relationship between Yu'er and the princes. ”

Fan Zeng could imagine that Ye Tong must have considered that he would remind Xiang Yu with his words and would not prevent the coalition soldiers from entering the Qin Pass.

In fact, it was not Ye Tong's strategy, it was Zhang Liang's strategy. Zhang Liang is a wise sage, and it is difficult to take into account the mentality and thoughts of Xiang Yu, Fan Zeng, and the princes.

"Father, you said it was really Ye Tong who came up with the plan?"

"Yu'er, I don't know who has a plan, one thing is for sure, there are masters around Ye Tong. After leaving Qin Pass, the road is narrow, so be cautious and don't fall into an ambush again. Let the princes' soldiers and horses open the way in front. ”

"Father, enter the customs first and become king!"

Hehe!

"Yu'er, don't you have the strength to be king? As for the agreement of King Chu Qing, don't take it seriously, strength is the foundation of everything. ”

"Okay!"

Next, along the way, the alliance of princes was subjected to numerous attacks, ambushes, and sneak attacks. Although the loss of soldiers and horses is not much, it is uncomfortable and depressing!

Zhang Liang had already predicted that as long as Qin Guancheng was successful, Fan Zeng would definitely persuade Xiang Yufang to slow down the pace of his advance. If the plan fails, Xiang Yu's soldiers and horses will definitely chase and kill quickly, so it will not play the role of blocking and delaying.

Three days later, Ye Tong led two thousand light cavalry, did not entangle the princes' coalition army again, quickly got rid of the princes' coalition army, entered the Guanzhong region at the fastest speed, and caught up with the Chinese army led by Jiang Song two days later.

As soon as Ye Tong arrived at the Chinese army, Jin Yiwei reported: "General, the three thousand soldiers and horses led by General Han Xin were besieged on a hill by Liu Bang's army, and the situation is not very good. ”

Oh!

Hehe!

Han Xin will be difficult for Liu Bang, which is really unexpected. Liu Bangjun used to have Zhang Liang to help him give advice, but now that he is gone, is there any bull fork strategist?

"How many soldiers and horses does Liu Bang have in difficulty with Han Xin?"

"General, Liu Bang has more than 30,000 soldiers and horses to trap General Han Xin's 3,000 soldiers and horses, and the disparity in strength is too great. Han Xin led his troops and horses to break through several times, but they all returned in vain. ”

"That's not right! There are so many soldiers and horses from Liu Bang, who lost almost 70,000 soldiers and horses in the attack and defense of Wuguan, and more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in Qingni Pass, Liu Bang has less than 20,000 soldiers and horses at most, why would 30,000 soldiers and horses suddenly come out? ”

"General, you're right. The problem is that Lu Ze brought more than 30,000 soldiers and horses to support, which suddenly increased Liu Bang's soldiers and horses. In addition to the 30,000 soldiers and horses besieging Han Xin, Liu Bang personally led less than 20,000 soldiers and horses to advance to Xianyang City, and it was not surprising that Liu Bang would enter Xianyang City tomorrow afternoon. ”

Lu Ze? Liu Bang's brother-in-law is very strategic and a rare general. Liu Bang rebelled, no money! It's the money from my wife's family. From another point of view, without the support of the Lu family, Liu Bang would not be able to do anything, and he would not be able to recruit soldiers and horses without money!

"By the way, how far is it from where Han Shin is besieged?"

"General, it's nearly 10,000 meters away."

Sweat!

10,000 meters? That's 10 kilometers! The infantry can't march fast, and it will soon be dark, and it seems that it can't be saved today, but only tomorrow.

"Inform Han Xin, hold on, tomorrow the army will enter from the periphery and wipe out Liu Bang's 30,000 army in one fell swoop."

"Yes!"

"By the way, Jin Yiwei investigated why Liu Bang wanted to entangle Han Xin's army, it doesn't make sense!"

Liu Bang should be busy entering Xianyang City, and his soldiers and horses can no longer take risks, once the soldiers and horses lose too much, how to confront Xiang Yu. At this time, it was unwise to hunt down and kill more than 3,000 soldiers and horses of Han Xin.

"General, the ...... That Han Xin beat Liu Bang badly in Wuguan, and more than 80,000 of the 100,000 troops were wiped out, and he hated Han Xin very much in his heart and vowed to destroy Han Xin. Therefore, as soon as Lu Ze's reinforcements arrived, he immediately ordered Fan Xu, Lu Ze, Cao Shen, Yongya and others to lead a large army to hunt down Han Xin. ”

Zhang Liang explained: "General, the coalition army led by Liu Bang looks like a coalition army on the surface, but in fact, most of the soldiers and horses are Liu Bang's. The other princes did not have many soldiers and horses, Liu Bangwu attacked and defended, and suffered heavy losses, which can be regarded as a broken muscle, and it is not surprising that he hated Han Xin. ”

"Okay, inform Han Xin to hold on as soon as possible and wait for reinforcements."

"Yes!"

Zhang Liang suggested: "General, although it is late, but the morale of the soldiers is high, you can consider marching at night and resting when you arrive at the destination, so that tomorrow the soldiers will not have physical problems." ”

"Good! Just do what Mr. Ovary said. ”

Ancient soldiers and horses were not good at marching at night, and the key was nutrition. Nutrition does not run, and many soldiers have night blindness. The soldiers exchanged by Ye Tong's subordinates have no problem with nutrition, and there is no night blindness. Therefore, Zhang Liang did not suggest that Ye Tong should also order a night march.

In order to ensure the safety of the army, Ye Tong asked Li Shuo and Peng Yue to take turns to lead light horses to explore the road, and Liu Bangjun's horses were cleared. It's best to reach the raid, but there's not much hope.

Two hours later, Jin Yiwei reported: "General, there are still three kilometers away from the place where General Han Xin was besieged, do you want to continue to move forward?" ”

"The army is stationed to rest, send out scout horses, light and dark two groups of sentinels, the cordon is a little farther away, not too close."

"Yes!"

Ye Tong held a combat meeting, Jin Yiwei introduced the reconnaissance situation, and the next thing was the tactical arrangement, Ye Tong meant to let Peng Yue lead two thousand light cavalry to harass with bows and arrows. Ye Tong and Jiang Song led pikemen, shield soldiers, and archers to form a six-flower formation and directly crushed the enemy.

Zhang Liang asked puzzledly, "General, what is the Six Flowers Array?" Why haven't you heard of it? ”

Sweat!

It was the battle formation of the later generations, and it was strange that Zhang Liang knew it.

"Mr. Zifang, the Six Flowers Array is the battle formation of our army's daily training, and each small formation is composed of two shield soldiers, pikemen, and archers; Countless six-flower arrays were combined into a huge array. When attacking, they roll forward and cooperate with each other, which is extremely lethal. ”

Zhang Liang was still puzzled after hearing this, shook his head and said, "General, I didn't understand." ”

Hehe!

"Mr. Zifang, it doesn't matter if you don't understand it now, you will understand it after you read it tomorrow, the battle formation is very simple, the soldiers are not complicated to use, and it has a high actual combat effect."

Li Shuo was puzzled and asked, "General, what about the humble position?" ”

Hehe!

"Li Shuo, you are not familiar with the Six Flowers Array, and your task tomorrow is to protect Mr. Zifang and Secretary Xu Cheng, and not let them face danger. The two of them are national treasures and must be protected. ”

"Yes!"

Zhang Liang was depressed and said: "General, although the grass people are scholars, they can also carry a sword into battle without protection. The same is true for the junior sister, who has the ability to go into battle and kill the enemy. ”

Ye Tong believes that the scholars of ancient times were not weak and weak people. It is a civil and military talent who can help on the horse and settle the country when he gets off the horse. After arriving in the Song Dynasty, scholars became weak and could only write poems. During the Han and Tang dynasties, scholars could ride and shoot.

Hehe!

"Mr. Zifang, General Ben knows that Mr. can help when he gets on the horse, and he can settle the country when he gets off the horse. It's just that Mr. Zifang's safety is very important, and the brain of our army will be Mr. Zifang in the future. We can't let Mr. Zifang be in the slightest danger, and we will be in charge of killing the enemy in battle, and Mr. Zifang will be responsible for making suggestions. ”

"Okay!"

Zhang Liang doesn't resist giving advice now, anyway, after one out, it's normal to have a few more times. Even Zhang Liang himself didn't expect that he was unconsciously helping Ye Tong with advice, which seemed to be a matter of course, and there was nothing wrong with it.

Early the next morning, just after dawn, the soldiers got up and had breakfast, and then began to assemble, lined up in battle, and pressed forward.

The commander of Liu Bang's army is Lu Ze, and he has already received that Ye Tong led his troops and horses not to rescue Han Xin, but Lu Ze felt that it was a fool's dream to rescue Han Xin with Ye Tong's 8,000 soldiers and horses

Lu Ze was ready to engage Ye Tong's army head-on, and Han Xin's 3,000 soldiers and horses were handed over to Cao Shen to lead 10,000 soldiers and horses to surround but not attack, and then clean up Han Xin after solving Ye Tong's army.

Ye Tong and Jiang Song were in front of the formation, adopting the double dragon out of the cage and the double arrow attack mode, making full use of Ye Tong and Jiang Song's strong personal breakthrough ability, and leading the large array to roll forward to attack.

When the distance between the two armies was only about five hundred meters, Ye Tong said in a loud voice: "Whoever leads the army on the other side will come out to talk." ”

A middle-aged white-robed general rode out on horseback and replied, "Who is shouting?" ”

Hum!

Ye Tong snorted coldly and scolded loudly: "Who is here?" When you see General Ben, why don't you kneel down and surrender, do you want to follow Liu Bang's scoundrels, land, and scum to the road of death? ”

Oh!

"It turned out to be a general! Fortunately! Fortunately! This marshal Lu Ze, it is impossible to dismount and surrender. Could it be that the general wants to defeat the army of 30,000 tigers and wolves with thousands of soldiers and horses? ”

Ye Tong sighed with emotion in his heart, General Lu Zeliang! Ye Tong stimulated with words, the purpose was to make the other party angry. When people are angry, they make mistakes and easily find weaknesses in attack. Lu Ze is calm and abnormal, not angry, what a good general!

Hahaha!

"Lu Ze, let's make a bet, if General Ben defeats your army of 30,000 tigers and wolves, you will surrender to General Ben, don't mess with Liu Bang's scum anymore, and mix meat with General Ben to eat and drink good wine. As for your sister Lu Pheasant? Just let her take a break from Liu Bang. ”
