Chapter 460: The two armies of the Han Dynasty fought against Zhao Di
Chen Xuan listened to Fan Qi's words, and he was overjoyed, as long as Lu Juan did not send troops, it would be the greatest help to himself, so that he would have a chance to breathe and fight against the Han army.
At this time, Liu Bang had already led the army to Handan to garrison the troops, but a spout came to report, saying that the two places in the Yan Dynasty had not fought for many days, and Lu Juan had been cowering in the capital of the king of Yandi.
In the Han camp, Liu Bang was in the first place, and when he heard this, he didn't rush to speak, but looked at the people left and right, "Do you know why Lu Juan is like this?" Mo didn't want to collude with Chen Xuan. ”
Chen Ping has always known the relationship between Liu Bang and Lu Xuan, and said with great interest: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this is not the case, but it is possible that King Yan learned that the Xiongnu and Chen Xuan were united, and their troops were invincible, so they had to stick to the royal capital. ”
Liu Bang bowed slightly, and at this time, Fan Xu next to him immediately got up and said: "Your Majesty can send someone to Yandi at this moment, we are now in Handan, if King Yan sends troops and attacks from both sides, such a Daijun can naturally be broken." ”
For this matter, Chen Ping saw it most thoroughly, directly above Zhao Di was the Xiongnu region, and the east wind was Yan Land, thinking that Lu Juan was fighting very hard some time ago.
But now there is no movement, which really doesn't make people think deeply, but there are two things that happened before and after Lu Juan's troops, Han Xin was killed, Peng Yue was killed, this is the news that Lu Juan can get.
The matter of killing the king like this came out, how could Lu Huang still work hard for the Han Dynasty, this is also the reason why he did not send troops, today Fan asked Lu Huang to send troops, the result must be Lu Huang said that he was sick, if Liu Bang repeatedly issued an edict, if Lu Huang was really anti-Han, the plan for today is not to care about Lu Juan, and after solving the matter of Chen Xuan, Lu Huang at that time was really lonely.
Just as Chen Ping was thinking about it, Liu Bang felt that what Fan Xu said made sense, and immediately asked Chen Ping: "Mr. thinks what General Fan said is feasible." ”
Seeing this, Chen Ping reacted quickly, and immediately defended: "Weichen thinks that this matter is not feasible, the land of Yan is still between Zhao and the Xiongnu, and the Xiongnu have not yet sent troops, if the king of Yan comes to support with troops, the land of Yan will be empty, and then the Xiongnu will take the opportunity to occupy the land of Yan, so the king of Yan will be in an isolated and helpless situation, wouldn't it hurt the life of the king of Yan." ”
"Now that King Yan and the Acting King have fought several times, presumably both sides are already exhausted, and now Your Majesty can lead troops to replace the land, as for King Yan is in the rear of Chen Xuan's army, this is a hidden danger, why does Your Majesty want to remove the enemy's worries and put our army in a dilemma?"
Liu Bang then listened to Chen Ping's strategy, temporarily did not summon Lu Xuan, let him stick to it, before that, the strength of the two armies of the Han Dynasty should be understood, the Han army is hundreds of thousands, the commander Liu Bang, the generals Cao Shen, Fan Xu, etc.
The number of troops on behalf of the land is also nearly hundreds of thousands, among which the generals Hou Chang and Zhang Chun under Chen Xuan, as well as the Xiongnu and the Xiongnu have not yet arrived, and the main cities occupied are Quyi City, Liaocheng, Taiyuan, Dongyuan, Lingqiu and other places.
The Han army was stationed near Handan City, but fortunately, Liu Bang followed Chen Ping's advice and did not go to Yandi to let Lu Juan send troops, otherwise it is really difficult to say who the King of Yan sent troops to help.
When Chen Feng learned that the Han army had come, he ordered Hou Changxian to garrison Quyi City, observe the situation of the Han army, and if the soldiers were general, they would retreat without attacking, and if the soldiers traveled a long distance and were tired and tired, they would be defeated in one fell swoop.
Hou Chang was arrogant, thinking that he had fought with King Yan several times, so he didn't take the Han army in his eyes, but he didn't know that Lu Juan was not good at conquering cities, and he had to be explained by others for his own life.
When Fan Xu heard that Chen Xuan had sent troops to Qu Rebellion City, he asked Liu Bang for instructions and led an army of 10,000 to attack.
So, Fan Xu led the troops first, preparing to let the Han army win the first victory, twenty miles outside Qu Wei City, Fan Xu could not directly garrison the troops, and then ordered several teams of men and horses to go to Qu Wei City to scold.
Hou Chang regarded himself as a military general, and he never thought that there would be a Han army scolding when he first came to garrison Qu Shuncheng, and he really looked down on the Dai Army, and the Han Army came from thousands of miles away, and the Dai Army was waiting for work, if he went out to face the battle, how could there be a reason for failure.
Therefore, Hou Chang ignored the generals' obstruction, personally led the three thousand generations of troops, and went to meet the enemy outside the city.
Fan Xu was not ambiguous, and immediately led all the troops out of the camp to fight, and the two armies met ten miles outside Quyi City, Fan Xu immediately stopped the army and rode away alone.
Seeing this, Hou Chang was also unwilling to weaken his momentum, and immediately stepped forward to answer, Fan Xu spoke first: "The person who came is He Lu's rebel general, report your name quickly, and you will be rewarded at the first level." ”
"This general is the acting king's account Hou Chang is also, Your Excellency is not Hanjiang Fan Xu, a certain has heard that you are warlike, and today you are willing to fight with a certain one!" Hou Chang said very directly.
Fan Xu was beside him, sneering slightly, "It's just a young general!" After saying that, he stepped forward directly with a gun, and Hou Chang reacted quite quickly, immediately raising his halberd to block Fan Xu's swing of the spear.
Hou Chang never thought that Fan Xu's strength was so great, and he was immediately shocked and numb, but Fan Xu didn't give Hou Chang a chance to breathe, drew back the spear, and stabbed Hou Chang in the chest instead.
Hou Chang's body quickly deviated, but despite this, he was still stabbed in the left shoulder, and the two fought for only five rounds, Hou Chang was wounded, so he had to ride his horse and flee backwards.
However, Fan Xu had already seized the opportunity, how could he allow this guy to escape back into the formation, and Fan Xu in the rear immediately threw the spear in his hand, impartially, and hit Hou Chang's back.
That Hou Chang fell to the ground directly, the Han army immediately waved the flag, the soldiers rushed up, the Dai army was defeated, Fan Hao saw that the morale of the Han army was high, and directly ordered people to attack the city, and Hou Chang was cut off the head and hung in front of the three armies.
The rebels in Qu Rebellion City were all surprised to see Hou Chang killed, and immediately ordered the soldiers to be well armed, and ordered people to go to inform Chen Feng and rush to support as soon as possible.
But the morale of the Dai army plummeted, the people's hearts were in turmoil, and they didn't want to stick to the city at all, Fan Hao saw the opportunity, stood alone under the city and shouted: "Now the rebel Hou Chang has been killed by the Heavenly Army, and Chen Feng is based on the frontier, there is no vastness of the Central Plains, it is difficult to dominate one side, if you surrender today, you will treat each other with courtesy, and I hope you will think deeply." ”
Originally, the acting army on the tower of the city gate was already a little chaotic, and when he heard Fan Xu's shouting, almost everyone had the heart of surrender, and without waiting for the deputy general to react, the representative army next to him directly assassinated him.
Then he shouted to the side: "Everyone, our parents are in the Central Plains, why are we subject to the thieves, if we surrender now, we can go back to filial piety to our parents and raise our wives, isn't it beautiful!" ”
As soon as the words fell, the Dai army responded by waving their flags, and then opened the city gate and let the Han army enter the city, so they did not waste much troops, and occupied Qu Reverse City.
After Fan Hao arranged everything, he ordered someone to invite Liu Bang, and at this time, Zhou Chang also responded to Liu Bang's call near Handan, which also put Chen Feng at a slight disadvantage.
