Chapter 361: The Overlord of Chu Surprises the Han Army
Now Xiao He has returned to Liyang, leaving only Zhang Liang and Lu Yan Sasuke Han Wang, Pengcheng, Liu Bang is also wide-hearted, the city has been occupied for less than a month, and he has brought all his family to him.
Now the king of Liaodong, the king of Linjiang, the king of Jiujiang, and the king of Yin have not been won, and the ghost knows what Liu Bang is happy about, and in the palace of the king of Chu, Zhang Liang and Lu Yan's face is slightly helpless.
"Now that Pengcheng is occupied, the two of them should be happy, why bother to be so frustrated, the overlord is restrained by Tian Rong, and when he comes with the troops, he is afraid that all the land will be owned by Han." Liu Bang said very angrily.
"Brother, you don't know, today's land is only half of the land, you should be cautious, besides, Xiang Yu is like a god with soldiers, if he leads troops to attack, Pengcheng will not be protected." Lu Yan frowned, but Xiang Yu would definitely lead a surprise attack.
As for how to attack, Lu Yan didn't know either, Zhang Liang was also the head of the jaw, "Although Chu is inferior today, its strength is still there, and if the enemy is so light, it is inevitable that something will go wrong." ”
"Don't worry so much, I want to see what Xiang Yu has today, he can rush back from hundreds of miles of Qi and quickly take Pengcheng!" There was a slight disdain between the words.
"In this case, why don't we go back to Xingyang first and rectify the soldiers, what do you think, after all, you can't stay in Pengcheng all the time, Sima Wei, the king of Yin, has not yet broken through, so you should plan early." Lu Yan said unhurriedly.
Liu Bang didn't object, and nodded slightly in agreement, "What Master Hou said is also true, that Sima Weijiu is not a way to sing in Chaoge, and he needs to find a way to break the enemy." ”
Zhang Liang wanted to say something on the side, but in the end he just nodded slightly, "According to what Ziyu said, the king can be more careful here." ”
So, Lu Yan, Zhang Liang and others returned to Xingyang first, leaving many generals to guard in Pengcheng, Liu Bang was originally a ruffian on the spot, and now Xiao He is not there, Zhang Liang returned to Xingyang, and he was even more forgetful.
Pengcheng didn't mention everything, and said that Xiang Yu's troops were in Qi today, and he didn't know that Pengcheng was captured, and almost all of the current Qi land except Linzi was occupied by Xiang Yu, and Tian Rong's army continued to retreat.
Just when Xiang Yu was beaming with pride, Long He and the others fled back from Chudi, Xiang Yu couldn't help but be shocked when he saw this, and immediately invited Zhong Liwu and the others into the account to inquire about the matter.
"General Long, why do you have such a look when you guard Dingtao Waihuang and other important towns?" Xiang Yu asked eagerly.
Long He was timid in his heart, and immediately knelt down and said: "King Qiqi, Weichen has insulted the king's mission and life, and this crime cannot be punished, and I hope the king will punish him!" ”
Xiang Yu hurriedly helped the dragon up, "What's the matter, it's not that Dingtao is lost, this is a trivial matter, I will immediately send troops to recapture Dingtao." ”
"Not only Dingtao, but also Pengcheng in Chu were lost, and many princes and princes and Han kings combined 500,000 troops to occupy all of Chu, and now there is no Chu land." The dragon cried.
When Xiang Yu heard this, he was furious in his heart, and immediately slapped the case, "Liu Bang, if you dare to deceive me like this, I will definitely behead him to show the public and relieve the hatred in my heart!" ”
"The king must not be impatient, this matter needs to be considered in the long run." Fan Zeng persuaded helplessly.
"Why do you need to think long-term, is it possible that I can't send troops yet? Just let that shaft get away with it! Xiang Yu shouted angrily.
Fan Zeng immediately unfolded the map on the side, "King Qiyu, at this moment, there are five disadvantages to sending troops to attack Liu Bang and recapture Pengcheng. ”
"The Father has always been careful, and what harm is there? Why didn't I notice it in the slightest? Xiang Yu said in a gloomy voice, and his mood was a little better.
Fan Zeng Lao Cheng was serious, and took a slight sip of warm tea, "King Qiqi, we are in the land of Qi, and the land of Qi and Zhao has not yet been pacified, so in such a haste to send troops, it is inevitable that the enemy will be attacked on the back, which is a disadvantage; Today, I heard reports from all over the country that Liu Bang coerced the princes to cling, and under the banner of avenging the righteous emperor, he gathered more than 500,000 troops, which was very different from the strength of our army. Now that Chu has all fallen, if you attack rashly, how can you rest and recuperate, if you can't fight quickly, our army may be wiped out, which is three disadvantages; Now our army is in Qidi, if we go to Pengcheng to launch an attack, such an action, back and forth, resulting in the exhaustion of our army, and the Han army to wait for work, defend Pengcheng, these four disadvantages, and the princes everywhere are under the command of Liu Bang, our army alliance isolation is five disadvantages. ”
Xiang Yu bowed his head slightly when he heard this, "That Ya Father is high, what should I do after I occupy Qi Land?" ”
"According to the old man's foolish opinion, occupy Qidi, unite with Chen Yu, and attack Han Xin to the north, if Han Xin's army is defeated, he can take the opportunity to attack Xingyang from the north bank of the river, so that the Han army is isolated and helpless, Liu Bang must be captured." Fan Zeng said slowly.
"What Ya Father said is certainly reasonable, Jinlian and Chen Yu, defeating Han Xin, it will take time, and now Liu Bang is waiting for work in Pengcheng, isn't it cheaper to be a horseman, I have a law, and all the generals will listen."
"Today, Qi is going to be broken, according to the spies, Fan Hao Cao Shen is stationed in the Lu country, I can lead the cavalry to surround Fan Xu in Xiao County and Huling, and then attack the southeast Liu Bang barracks, all the way directly to the outskirts of Pengcheng, what does my father think?" Xiang Yu said quite firmly.
"This place stretches for dozens of miles, all of them are Han troops, how many troops is the general going to lead?" Fan Zeng asked with some confusion.
"30,000 cavalry, a quick battle!" Xiang Yu thought about it for a while and said very seriously.
When the generals heard this, they were all shocked and didn't dare to speak, only Ji Bu hurriedly knelt down and said: "King Qiqi, it is really dangerous to send troops like this, if the king is in trouble, what should we do?" ”
"As the so-called surprise victory, the concerns of the father are important, but it will take a long time, and the Han army at this moment is a rabble, if it is according to the law of the father, I am afraid that the Han army has long been closely connected and difficult to overcome." Xiang Yu also said calmly.
Fan Zeng heard what he said, and suddenly felt that what Xiang Yu said was not unreasonable, "Ji Bu, you get up, let's break through Qi Land here, and then go to meet the king, this is also appropriate." ”
"But, Father, that's more than 500,000, 30,000 cavalry, how terrible is 500,000 soldiers, even if it is a rabble, it is difficult to defeat!" Ji Buchang knelt down.
Xiang Yu immediately stepped forward to help Ji Bu, "Wait here to break Qi, after half a month, Pengcheng will meet and celebrate the banquet of breaking the Han Dynasty!" ”
Seeing this, Ji Bu was just helpless, so he didn't give any more advice, Xiang Yu ordered 30,000 troops in the camp tent, and the left and right deputy generals were Zhou Lan and Zhong Liwu respectively, and rushed to Lu that night.
At this moment, Fan Hao saw that Xiang Yu had no intention of going south, and his heart was a little relaxed, but he didn't know that Xiang Yu had led 30,000 elite soldiers and was rushing towards Lu Fangqiu.
Fan Xu and others did not get the news, the situation can be imagined, Fan Xu was defeated by Xiang Yu's army, Fan Xu could not escape, and was surrounded by Xiang Yu between Huling Xiao County, almost the whole army was annihilated, leading the remnants of the army, did not dare to rush to Pengcheng, and fled directly to Xingyang.
