Chapter 378: Building a Chariot Book Radical Xiang Yu
Lu Mu didn't mention it, and said that Han Xin had been in Xingyang for more than ten days, and there was no sign of sending troops, which made Liu Bang anxious, and hurriedly summoned Lu Yan, hoping that he could remind Han Xin.
Speaking of the relationship between Lu Yan and Han Xin, everyone is well known, so Lu Yan did not refuse, and rushed to the camp where Han Xin lived that day.
Han Xin was happy when he saw Lu Yan coming in the tent, and he personally prepared a seat to make tea, "My brother is here, could it be that the king of Han asked my brother to come and comfort me to send troops." ”
"Tautology is really smart, you also know some time ago, my mother died, so it was delayed for some time, now everything is decided, Chu and Han are opposed, grain has been transported from Liyang, there is a lot of inconvenience, you should make a plan to retreat Chu as soon as possible, and then go north to crusade against Daijun, so as not to wait for a long time." Lu Yan said slowly.
Han Xin bowed slightly, "What my brother said is reasonable, the reason why he didn't send troops is just to make chariots, and he can move his troops outside Xingyang City tomorrow, plus Cheng Gao is in the rear, I think that Xiang Yu is familiar with the art of war, and he will definitely not act rashly." ”
"Chariots? Tautology really impressed me, I don't know where to learn it? Lu Yan asked with great interest.
"This is the essence of the military book given by the elder brother, which says that the flat land, can be used for car battles, mountain dangerous places, can be used for foot combat, attack raids, can be used for horse battles, and the role of the location is different, and the tautology is seen outside Xingyang City, there are more than 30 miles, all of which are flat places, so the car war is chosen." Han Xin said very confidently.
When Lu Yan heard this, he suddenly felt ashamed, "Tautology is free to use soldiers, but how to make a car, and how many warlike cars are there today?" ”
"The method of making a car, very simple, take the regular car, take its balance choke, use two horses to drive it, cover on all sides, each holding a spear on the left and right, the front and rear are crossbowmen, four soldiers in the car, in addition to the front of the ten soldiers, staggered with shield spears, after is also arranged ten soldiers, the same as before, if the Chu army comes, twenty soldiers are around the car, stabbing out the spear, if the Chu army retreats, then use the bow and crossbow, the crossbow arrow drawings given to me by my brother, the tautology has been ordered to be transformed, all expanded into heavy crossbow arrows, all on the carriage, in the rear, In case the Chu army is strong, it will break through Xingyang. ”
"This car is in front, if the Chu army is in chaos, then use cavalry to pursue it, and this car can withstand ten cavalry, the line can carry grain, and the stop can be a battalion, so you will be able to win!"
Lu Yan was taken aback when he heard this, "Tautology can be handled by myself, I will deal with it on the Han King's side, but I will go out of the city tomorrow, is it appropriate?" ”
Han Xin immediately waved his hand, "Brother, don't worry, now I have secretly ordered someone to train this formation in Chenggao, and when the soldiers are outside Xingyang, they will meet with them." ”
"That's very good, you have a good rest, and I will tell King Han immediately." Lu Yan said very happily.
In the county government, Liu Bang was also overjoyed when he heard about this, so he didn't ask too much, and the next day, Han Xin really took 50,000 soldiers to be stationed outside Xingyang City.
When Xiang Yu heard about this, he didn't pay much attention to it, because in his opinion, Han Xin was just a crotch and had no merits to speak of, and he was ready to fight to the death with him outside Xingyang City on a certain day.
Han Xin's chariot battle is not without any shortcomings, the only drawback is that he can't send troops first, after all, the carriage is tired, and he should wait for the enemy to attack before it can be effective.
Now Chu Han Chen Bing, Han Xin needs to use a strategy to force Xiang Yu to send troops, as for what strategy it is, it is the same as the method of deceiving Cao Yu at the beginning, that is, to write a letter to scold Xiang Yu.
Xiang Yu is bold by nature, and he can't see this kind of scolding trick the most, looking at the three years of Chu and Han fighting, Xiang Yu's defeat was defeated by impulse, even if Fan Zeng was beside him, he didn't seem calm enough.
There was little gossip, and it was said that Han Xin summoned a messenger and handed him the written letter to him personally, and gave him twenty taels of gold to act at his discretion.
Han Xin also repeatedly instructed, "This letter must not be seen with others, it can only be opened by the King of Chu, and Fan Zeng must not be allowed to get it first!" ”
The messenger received the order to go, this messenger is not someone else, but with He, the person is ordinary, but good at talking, at first Liu Bang's confessor, and then followed Han Xin, the so-called messenger is the person who transmits the message.
When he went to the Chu camp, he met Fan Zeng first, and in the tent, the two of them sat alone, and they were very calm, "The king of Han sent you here, what is the so-called thing?" Fan Zeng asked first.
"This is not the king of Han who sent me, but the general sent me." Sui He said very directly.
When Fan Zeng heard this, he frowned, "You are talking about Han Xin'er, as a general under the account of King Han, how could he send you here, is he not afraid of King Han's suspicion." ”
"Yafu doesn't know, although Han Xin is a Han general, but Liu Bang sees that he is a crotch man, and he is not very welcome, and many things are all handled by Pingnanhou, so Han Xin has the intention of returning to Chu, and specially invites me to come and inform the overlord of Chu." Sui He said in a low voice, which seemed very mysterious.
"In that case, come with me, and the king will be in the tent next to him, and he will consult with him on all matters." There was a slight disdain in the words.
But when he saw the opportunity to visit Xiang Yu, he was overjoyed, and immediately went to Fan Zeng, Xiang Yu learned that a Han envoy came, and he greeted him in the tent with a little salute.
"Then the crotch man and surrender to me, do you have a letter?" Xiang Yu said bluntly.
Sui He didn't say haha, immediately took out the silk book from his sleeve and handed it to Xiang Yu in front of him.
The book said: "Han Shang General Eastern Expedition Commander-in-Chief Han Xin wrote to the West Chu Overlord under the command, bowed his head suddenly, in the past, Han Xin returned to Chu, the official awarded the halberd, and transferred the internal history, working together with the king, it can be said that the world is harmonious, the letter is not Chu Chen at this time, and also knows that the king wants to dominate the Chu country, so he exiles the righteous emperor, kills Chenxian County, and the world gnashes his teeth for it, and the letter is the same, and wants to hold a sword and behead the overlord, and avenge the righteous emperor. ”
"Now the king of the Han Dynasty is reasonable, it is for the elders, so he led the people to avenge the righteous emperor, there was an obstacle on the way, retreated to Guanzhong, believed in the order of the king of Han, the whole army was in peace, commanded the three armies, the clothes were all plain, male and female Xingyang, wanted to hang the head of the overlord, comfort the first emperor, this is the wish of the faith, but also the wish of the people of the world!"
Xiang Yu read the letter, his heart was furious, and he immediately patted the case: "This Huaiyin crotch man, you dare to make fun of me!" If you don't kill your crotch, you won't be a teacher! And pull the messenger out and cut it down! ”
Sui He next to him instantly panicked, "King Qiqi, this is the words of the crotch man, and the minister was also deceived by it!" ”
"If the king kills his ministers, won't he be proud of Han Xin, so that everyone in the world knows that the king killed the Han envoy, if the ministers die, the king will be useless, and Han Xin will be happy!" Then he immediately knelt down and said.
Although Xiang Yu was angry, he also knew the truth, so he no longer had any trouble with him, ordered someone to release him to the Han camp, informed Han Xin, and sent troops to attack the Han army in Xingyang in a few days.
Xiang Yu was provoked by Han Xin's silk book, so he no longer stationed troops in Chen County, and wanted to fight a decisive battle with Han Xin outside Xingyang to break the situation of Chu and Han antagonism.
