Chapter 171: The Prestige of the Great Qin Prince (Fifth Update)
Wu Guang thought about Tian Zang's incident in his head, and said in his heart that this guy would not have relied on the 150,000 horses to attack Xingyang, and then eat, drink and have fun in the city by himself, and get rid of Lao Tzu, right?
Once such an idea was formed, the more Wu Guang thought about it, the more wrong it became, and after pondering for a full hour, Wu Guang finally couldn't hold back and sent a few scouts to Xingyang City to check the situation.
It stands to reason that Wu Guang should never continue to fight in Sanchuan County with these 50,000 horses, but he thought of Chen Sheng's expectations for himself when he left, and said in his heart that if he went back with 50,000 remnants, would he still be able to keep his position as a false king? There are a lot of people like Tian Zang at the bottom.
After waiting for more than half an hour, the so-called scouts sent out before came back tremblingly, but they only said that the surrounding area of Xingyang City was quiet, and they did not see Tian Zang's 150,000 troops, let alone Wang Li, who was attracted by Tian Zang.
"Tian Zang, this guy! He must have privately led an army of 150,000 to break through Xingyang, and wanted to take the land of Xingyang as his own, but we are under the command of King Chen, how can we allow this guy to do this? ”
So, Wu Guang rushed to Xingyang with 50,000 horses in a menacing manner, in his opinion, as a fake king, as long as he came forward, Tian Zang would not obediently spit out what he ate in his mouth.
Indeed, Wu Guang's estimate of Tian Zang's original thoughts was quite accurate, but Wu Guang didn't count the abilities of Tian Zang and Wang Li.
50,000 horses arrived not far outside Xingyang City, Wu Guang took the lead before he could start calling the door, only to hear the sound of 'swishing ......', Wu Guang subconsciously looked up, and in the next second, he fell down directly from the horse that had not been ridden very steadily, and after that, the second-in-command of the largest anti-Qin force in Great Qin didn't know anything.
When Wu Guang woke up again, he was already in a cell where he didn't know where, looking at the darkness around him and the sour smell in the air, Wu Guang knew that he seemed to have to wake up from the spring and autumn dream of being the second in command in the world.
The 300,000 army, in just over half a month, was wiped out by the 150,000 Qin soldiers led by Ying Gao, and the news was transmitted like locusts to the most rampant places in the east and south where the anti-Qin forces were most rampant.
This battle made many people who did not participate in the anti-Qin secretly rejoice, and deeply felt that the army of the Great Qin Tiger and Wolf was still the same as for decades, and it was not something that could be broken by a few nobles or some Qiantou leaders of the Six Kingdoms together.
"Fake King and Tian Zang, Zhou Wen and his party went to capture Xingyang with 300,000 yuan, but I don't want it to be a situation where the whole army is annihilated, King Chen will send troops in the future, and he must be cautious!"
Chen County, Chen Sheng had just learned that his army of 300,000 had been wiped out by Yinggao, Wang Li and others almost without a single soldier, and for a while his face was full of disbelief, and he didn't hear the reminder of the people under his command at all.
What he was thinking about in his head was the words that incited him to oppose Qin at the beginning, and what he remembered most vividly was that Great Qin was no longer the Great Qin of a few decades ago, and the combat power of the Qin soldiers was the same as that of the head of Qian, like a chicken and a dog.
And when he attacked some counties near his hometown before, the facts were indeed as the man said, what Chen Sheng couldn't understand was why things became this virtue as soon as he arrived in Xingyang.
As the person who informed Chen Sheng at the beginning, Xiang Liang also received the news, and when he received the news, he had just met with Xiang Yu, who had returned from attacking the city to the west, and was also discussing the next step at this time.
"Uncle, now Chen Sheng doesn't have many people in Chen County, and almost all of the generals he sent are people harboring evil intentions, this time this guy has suffered such a big defeat, why don't I take the opportunity to take Chen County and use Chen County as the new capital of my Chu State?"
"Chen County, this is the most important place in my Chu State, temporarily occupied by Chen Sheng, it is just an expedient measure, but at this time it is not a good opportunity to capture Chen County, if you let that Gongzi Gao and Zhang Han and others occupy the favorable terrain of several cities in Sanchuan County, even if we take Chen County and Yingchuan and other places, it is still difficult to attack Hangu Pass, so leaving that Chen Sheng in Chen County, or can lead Gongzi Gao out of Sanchuan County, if Gongzi Gao and others go elsewhere, what are we afraid of?"
Xiang Liang's words made the young Xiang Yusheng unable to refute anything, he knew that although their uncle and nephew had already carried the anti-Qin banner in Huiji, there was still a significant gap in combat effectiveness between the army in their hands and the Qin soldiers, and there was also a lot of difference in clothing, armor and weapons.
Therefore, their only way out is to keep the living force of Great Qin away from their capital Xianyang, and then look for an opportunity, the huge Great Qin is really not something that can be killed in one go.
"Now that the surrounding area of this county has been occupied by us, could it be that we are waiting for the Qin soldiers here?"
Today's Xiang Yu is a good hand at attacking cities, but in addition to the blood in his head, he is indeed missing some foresight, once he can't attack, he doesn't know what to do in his heart.
"A mere Huiji County is naturally not a place to live for a long time, this place is okay as a rear, but if we want to become the mainstay of the anti-Qin forces of the Six Kingdoms, we can't live here for a long time......"
"I don't know what Uncle means......"
"Cross the river to the west!"
Here, Xiang Liang's uncle and nephew's actions are in full swing, and Gongzi Gao, who they are extremely afraid of, is not as easy as they imagined, because now, the problem in front of Yinggao is even more severe.
Although the defeated Wu Guang's so-called army of 300,000 won momentum and glory for the soldiers of Great Qin, Yinggao knew that just a single Wu Guang, and even Chen Sheng, were just touchstones on the road against Qin.
Judging from the news that Yinggao has gotten now, it is indeed not optimistic, now except for the land of Lao Qin, almost all of them have anti-Qin forces, and there are some places where Yinggao has an impression in his previous life, and there is no one who comes out of those places to deal with.
So, where to go, has become the first problem in front of Yinggao, if you enter, where to enter, is it easy first and then difficult or difficult and then easy, if you don't enter, how to curb Xiang Yu, Liu Bang, Zhang Liang out of one moth after another......
