Chapter 384: The Road to Promotion
Long and saw that the river was not deep, and the Han army could run directly back to the other bank, so he ordered the whole army to pursue, be sure to annihilate the invading enemy, and catch the enemy by surprise. www.biquge.info If it is a conventional battlefield, this arrangement is not wrong, because the sneak attack troops will not have time to do more comprehensive defense work, and the counter-sneak attack will have a surprise effect. It's just that Han Xin carefully arranged it, just to wait for Long Ji to come back to counter the sneak attack, because he knew Long Ji's personality too well. General Long, like Xiang Yu, likes to solve problems quickly, likes not to give his opponent time to breathe, and likes to seize fleeting fighters.
Just when the Qi-Chu coalition army crossed the river halfway, suddenly the river water in the upper reaches of [Weishui] soared, and the Han soldiers overturned the sandbags that had been filled into the river together, and the long-accumulated [Weishui] rushed straight to the Qi-Chu coalition army like a galloping dragon. It's a pity that there are still a large number of soldiers still in the river, who were directly washed away dozens of miles away by the flood. At this time, the cavalry general Guan Ying, suddenly led 30,000 cavalry like lightning and flint to kill, Zhao State, Yan Kingdom was originally rich in cavalry and archery masters, plus Guan Ying was responsible for training cavalry after the Battle of Pengcheng, so the iron cavalry of Guan Ying was already quite strong at this time!
It was almost a repeat of the Battle of Pengcheng - the cavalry pursued the infantry by the river, and the troops of the Qi-Chu coalition army crossing the river were soon met with the most brutal unilateral pursuit. Soon, the infant iron cavalry was like a wind and clouds, eliminating half of the people who had crossed the river, and using the arrow array to force the dragon to the river, the dragon rose up [Purple Sky Divine Halberd], blocking the east and killing the west, but unfortunately, there were only more than 100 cavalry around him, and they could not withstand the impact of the Han army's cavalry formation.
After two rounds, Long He was left alone, and Long He shouted to Han Xin: "Coward, there is a kind of coming out to fight with Lao Tzu!" But Han Xin didn't answer him, Guan Ying ignored him, Cao Shen didn't pay attention to him, only the crazy arrow array of the Han army, thousands of arrows shot at Long in anger, and the poor Long General, the hero of the world, was pierced by random arrows and died.
On the other side of the river, the Qichu coalition army, which had not yet crossed the river, saw that the commander was killed in battle, and dispersed in a hurry. The Han army crossed the river in pursuit, and almost completely annihilated the Qi-Chu coalition army in the first battle, with only sporadic soldiers who fled back, and it was thrilling to mention this bloody battle many years later.

The Battle of Xingyang lasted for three years, during which there were many rounds of back-and-forth, and the two sides fought fiercely, but neither of them caused mass destruction. On the contrary, Han Xin led more than 10,000 strange soldiers, and there were constantly classic masterpieces along the way.
