Now there are 500,000 Chu troops and 100,000 Qing troops, for a total of 600,000 troops.

And Hanyang is a giant city, if you stick to this place with this force, then the wind army wants to break through here, I am afraid it will be difficult to climb to the sky!

At this time, Lu Chen was also discussing how to capture Hanyang.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, all the generals of the Feng army gathered, and Xiao Wang took the lead in speaking, "Land battles, the Chu army and the water division will be vulnerable, but where it is worried, it is also the 100,000 green army that is more horizontal." ”

"Yes." Lu Chen nodded in agreement, "We must not let them hug each other, otherwise, our army will stop at Hanyang and be divided." ”

When the generals heard this, they all looked at each other, and Chen Qun couldn't help but ask, "......What does the king mean?"

Lu Chen pondered for a while, and said, "Hanyang is not a Xiongguan Pass, but a place that extends in all directions, our army can draw part of the troops, with a big fanfare, pretending to approach the Chu capital, the king of Chu saw this, he must be frightened, and then ordered Wang Shuang to return to defense, here, we will turn around and attack Hanyang!" ”

"At that time, Hanyang's troops will be insufficient, and our army can also take advantage of the situation to completely eradicate these 100,000 green troops. Liu Yuan followed and said.

Lu Chen's strategy is a bit like a large-scale guerrilla warfare, which is intended to involve the Chu army, divide the battlefield, and mainly annihilate the Qing army. Because there are too many troops in Hanyang now, it is impossible to adopt a strong attack strategy, and only by weakening this place can this place be breached.

After the decision was finalized, Lu Chen also immediately gave an order, and then, the Feng army began to build momentum with great fanfare, preparing to spare Hanyang and approach Chudu.

The news was transmitted back to the capital, and when the king of Chu heard it, he was really shocked.

In fact, at this time, although the central army of Chu was all in Hanyang, it was still a little unrealistic for Lu Chen to approach Chu Capital, because behind him, there were Yue Heng and Wang Shuang! And Chu Youjun army does not say, I don't know how many obstacles will be encountered along the way, if this is the case, it is a lone army in depth, surrounded by a heavy siege, and the supply line is very likely to be cut off.

But the king of Chu was worried, how could he not know the courage of the wind army, and how could he put the capital in danger, so he did not have any consideration, and immediately sent a royal order to Wang Shuang, ordering him to lead the army back to defense, leaving only 100,000 Chu troops and 100,000 Qing troops stationed in Hanyang.

After receiving his royal order, Wang Shuang had nothing to consider, so he immediately found Yue Heng, explained to him, and prepared to obey the order.

But after the latter heard this, he hurriedly stopped him and said, "Hanyang is a strategic place, the general should stick to this place, why should he return to the capital city." ”

Wang Shuang said, "This is my king's order, and this commander must obey it, not to mention that if the capital is in danger, where is the family and country!" ”

Hearing him say this, Yue Heng said urgently, "General Wang, the Wind King acts like this, if he really dares to approach Chu Du, it is tantamount to asking for his own death!" The general doesn't have to bother with ......"

He said that he didn't have to pay attention to it, but Wang Shuang would listen to him, and when he heard the words, he also stared at him, and said with a little dissatisfaction, "General Yueheng, it is my Chudu that the wind army is going to attack, not you Qingdu, you can stand and talk without backache." ”

"I don't mean this, general, please listen to me." Yue Heng explained anxiously.

"Alright." But Wang Shuang waved his hand directly, and said, "Wang Ling is here, it's useless to say more, after I lead the army back to defense, I will also leave 100,000 Chu troops, and let General Zhang Kai defend Hanyang with you." ”

"This ......" Yue Heng still wanted to explain, but Wang Shuang was reluctant to talk to him anymore.

Between the two, although there is no major friction, the order of the king of Chu is irreversible to Wang Shuang, and in the final analysis, he has a set of water battles on the river, but in land battles, he has to stand aside.

As Wang Shuang led 400,000 Chu troops to evacuate Hanyang, Yue Heng also began to become worried.

At this time, Lu Chen, after receiving the news of the military aircraft battalion, also made a quick decision, directly ordered the army to turn around, and began to approach Hanyang!

As soon as Wang Shuang's front foot left, Lu Chen's back foot arrived, and after arriving in Hanyang, he did not immediately start the siege, but surrounded the entire Hanyang with heavy troops.

After the military deployment, Lu Chen also began to convene the generals in the tent, and after everyone arrived, he also pointed to the sand table and said directly to the point, "Now that our army has besieged Hanyang, after the king of Chu learns about it, I am afraid that Wang Shuang will support again, so this king intends to take Hanyang as a point and adopt the strategy of besieging the city and sending reinforcements." ”

As he spoke, he also looked at Qin Mu, and said with a straight face, "Qin Mu! Order you to lead an army of 100,000 to set up an ambush on the main road to intercept Wang Shuang! to prevent him from returning to Hanyang. ”

"Order!" Qin Mu immediately clenched his fists and said.

After giving this military order, Lu Chen also pointed to the location of Hanyang City on the sand table again, and said, "This king originally thought that Chu was in danger, and the Chu army would all return to defense, but I didn't expect that the king of Chu actually left 100,000 Chu troops, which is also a good thing for us." ”

Hearing this, Su Muzhi also immediately bowed his hand and said, "King, whether to take a strong attack on Hanyang." ”

"There's no need to rush." Lu Chen waved his hand slightly, and said, "Hanyang's grain and grass should not be much, now that the army is besieging the city, its grain route has also been cut off, it won't be long before the 100,000 Qing army and the 100,000 Chu army will be in chaos." ”

He was right, although Hanyang is a big city, the grain and grass have been withdrawn, and when Wang Shuang is leaving, it is impossible for the 400,000 army not to eat or drink, so he also took away part of the grain and grass, and now here, all that is left is the county government treasury.

Of course, there were also some grain merchants and people in the city who had food in their homes.

The wind army besieged the city, and Yue Heng could only prepare for the city defense, but after a few days, the wind army still did not move, let alone attack the city, at this time, Yue Heng also saw Lu Chen's intentions.

He also immediately found the Chu general Zhang Kai, and together with him found the head of Hanyang County, after meeting, Yue Heng also asked directly, "Lord County Head, I don't know how much grain and grass there is in Hanyang City." ”

The head of Hanyang County pondered for a moment and said truthfully, "With the use of 200,000 troops, I'm afraid it won't last long." ”

Hearing this, Yue Heng and Zhang Kai couldn't help but glance at each other, and the latter couldn't help but say, "If the grain and grass are exhausted, won't we be trapped alive in Hanyang City?" ”

As he spoke, he said again, "I just don't know where General Wang Shuang is now, and he should be coming to support soon." ”

"Huh." Yue Heng sneered, shook his head and said, "It's useless, the strategic purpose of the Wind King has been achieved, and now the army is besieging Hanyang, on the one hand, it is to trap us and others, on the other hand, it is to besiege the city and send reinforcements, General Wang Shuang is okay if he doesn't support, once he supports, he will be ambushed!" ”

Hearing him say this, Zhang Kai was startled, and immediately asked with wide eyes, "That...... How good is that? ”

"Find a way to break through!" Yue Heng directly said coldly.
