After a short period of thought, Li Mu decided that Liu Xiang would lead the army to resist the enemy, but Li Mu still considered the current situation between the enemy and us. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"General Liu's willingness to share worries for the country is commendable, but it is not clear about the movements of this Qin army, and I don't know the true intention of Wang Peng to attack me, besides, you don't even have 30,000 soldiers and horses, once you fall into danger, there may be a danger of annihilation" Li Mu told Liu Xiang of the worries in his heart.

"Don't be too careful, Wang Peng has already committed a taboo by sending troops alone this time, and if he comes with all his strength, he may not be able to win me," Liu Xiang replied confidently.

Li Mu then made up his mind, ordered Liu Xiang to lead the headquarters to resist the enemy, and sent the general Han Chao to help Liu Xiang break the enemy, the Zhao army generals on the side were still confused, they agreed in their hearts that now they have not even figured out the enemy's attack target, why do you Liu Xiang have so much confidence to win, and still resist the enemy with less than 30,000 troops.

In fact, they didn't know at all that many things during the period from the Qin army's attack on Zhao to the dispatch of troops to resist the enemy had always been planned by Liu Xiao and Jiang Chen a long time ago.

"Big brother, since we have received the information sent by Wei Bing from the Qin camp, although Huan Chong and Fei Ling have a lot of people, we don't have to be afraid of him this time" Jiang Chen said to Liu Xiang when he saw Liu Xiang on the side.

"Of course, we will definitely defeat Huan Chong this time, what I am worried about is that now Zhao State has lost most of its land, and all the soldiers and horses add up to only two or three hundred thousand, and now Qin State has destroyed Wei and Han, but I don't know how long Zhao State can last" Liu Xiang said with a more solemn expression, and Jiang Chen on the side also sighed and didn't say anything.

Here, Huan Chong and Ju Cheng led their respective men and horses to quietly advance northward, and after passing the northernmost end of Zhangshui, they entered the territory of Zhao State.

"General Ju, you see that you have 10,000 elite cavalry, and I will exchange 10,000 infantry with you, how" Huan Chong knew that most of the territory of Zhao was plain, but most of his subordinates were infantry for fear of being disadvantageous in battle, so he started the idea of Ju Cheng's cavalry.

Ju Cheng also knew that the terrain of Zhao was dominated by plains, and knew that the advantage of cavalry on the plains was much greater than that of infantry, so he agreed.

After Liu Xiang arrived at the site of the Qin army's attack as Wei Bing said, he inquired with local officials and learned that there were plains called Zhuze in a radius of 100 miles, except for the middle seat and its steep mountain called Duanling, and there was a small road leading to the interior of Duanling.

Everyone slowly walked into the Duanling Valley under the leadership of the guide, Liu Xiang found that the originally gentle road became more and more rugged, and the group continued to walk towards the depths of the valley, Liu Xiang looked around again, although some gravel and rubble were piled up, but the valley could still run horses, but the space in the valley was limited, and dozens of cavalry could still accommodate it, and if thousands of horses poured in, I am afraid that it would not be possible to avoid a stampede.

This valley does not have an entrance but no exit, and there is a slender exit leading to the direction of Handan for more than 100 miles, and this exit cannot be passed by five people and five horsemen side by side.

After Liu Xiang observed all the situation in the valley, he suddenly had a strategy to break the enemy in his heart, so he carefully deployed with all the soldiers.

At this time, Zhang Enming, who was stationed in Daidi, heard that Liu Xiang was leading a small number of men and horses to resist the attack of the Qin army, and Zhang Enming also knew that Liu Xiang had few soldiers for fear that his battle would be unfavorable, so he sent Liu Xi and Ye Zhao back to Yi'an to help him fight, and Ye and Liu went directly to the camp where Liu Xiang was located after receiving the order.

After Liu Xiang saw the two, he ordered Liu Xi to lead 500 troops to garrison the first military camp in the barrier, and Ye Zhao to lead 800 troops to guard the granary of the second road, and ordered the two to plan to abandon the village and retreat if they encountered an attack by the Qin army.

Here, Huan Chong divided the soldiers and horses into three divisions, one was commanded by Fei Ling, all of whom were composed of cavalry, with a total of 20,000 people, the second was commanded by himself, with a total of 15,000 infantry troops and 20,000 horse troops, and the third division of 10,000 infantry troops was commanded by Wei Bing.

Ju Cheng was afraid that Huan Chong's youth and experience would not be enough for the enemy to calculate, so he was stationed one mile behind the Huan Chong military camp and was ready to respond at any time.

Huan Chong gathered all the generals and colonels in the camp and issued an order to preemptively attack at three o'clock tomorrow.

"Huan Chong, I heard that you ordered to take the initiative to attack, by all means, our army is not clear about the deployment of Zhao when it first arrives, if you take the initiative to attack like this, not only will you fail to conquer the city camp in front, but you may also leak the goal and number of our army" Ju Cheng heard the news that Huan Chong ordered an attack tomorrow, and hurriedly went to the big tent of the Chinese army and said to Huan Chong.

"What does the general think," Huan Chong said to Ju Cheng with an unsatisfactory expression.

"Since the main goal of our army is to conquer Handan, we should march lightly and march quickly, quietly bypassing the nearby place where the Zhao army is stationed and going straight to Handan" Ju Cheng laid out the blueprint in his heart.

"Although the general's strategy is appropriate and reasonable, it is not realistic, as far as I know, the front is more than 100 miles called Barrier Ze, the terrain is flat, but there is a lofty mountain in the middle called Duan Ling, although this ridge is dangerous and wooded, but the valley in the middle is also flat with the outside, you can run horses, there is a passage in the south of the Duan Ling valley that can go straight to the direction of Handan, if you can't get out of here the ten **** army can reach the city of Handan and not be discovered, if you go from elsewhere, it will take half a month and there is a risk of being discovered by the enemy," Huan Chong said.

"Since it is said that the mountains and rivers of Duanling envelop the valley, it is very likely to become the location of the Zhao army's ambush, and even if the terrain inside the valley is flat, it is a valley after all, if the men and horses inside are ambushed, they will definitely suffer a lot of casualties," Ju Cheng still disagreed with Huan Chong's strategy, and said to him.

"General, how does the Zhao army know that our army will sneak attack from here, and besides, as the main general, I have given an order, and the general will try his best to assist me in destroying the city and pulling out the village, and when I return from victory, I will report the general's merits to the general" Ju Cheng walked out of the Chinese army's tent after speaking.

Ju Cheng knew that Huan Chong was determined this time, so he also went back to the camp.

On the second day, it was three o'clock in the morning, and Huan Chong ordered all the troops and horses to march into the army, and soon the army arrived at the military camp where Liu Xi was stationed.

Huan Chong thought that Zhao Jun was aware of it, but from the scouts sent out, he learned that the number of people in this military camp was not too large, and it seemed that it was just a normal garrison.

Huan Chong immediately ordered 500 archers to release arrows from all sides of the Zhao army camp, and the four soldiers on the two watchtowers in front of the Zhao army camp were all shot down, and each military tent in the camp was hit by countless arrows, and many soldiers were still resting in the tent or in the open space outside before being pierced by the arrows.

Many soldiers in the Zhao camp hurriedly looked for shields and things that could block arrows, and at this time, Liu Xi saw the enemy's feathered arrows flying like locusts, but he couldn't figure out where the enemy was.

Liu Xi originally wanted to organize the soldiers to counterattack, but everyone in the camp did not dare to stand up, so in desperation, Liu Xi had to order the soldiers to open the back gate and retreat.

Everyone had just retreated to the gate of the wall, but they found that hundreds of Qin soldiers surrounded two wooden knife carts and killed them. If you want to know how Liu Xi and others got out, please see the next breakdown.
