Chapter 127: Ten Thousand Horses Galloping
The emperor went out on patrol, and the 20,000 guards who could protect the emperor didn't need to think about it, and they knew that they must be the most elite soldiers of Great Qin. At least it will not be inferior to Meng Tian's 20,000 Ninety-Nine Plains Border Army!
So, how could Xiang Yu still besiege the Qin Emperor, who had 20,000 elite Qin troops, in Chengwu County?
"Bold Xiang Yu'er, dare to bully me!"
Xiang Liang, who understood the cause and effect, suddenly became angry and said sharply!
"Zifang thinks that Emperor Qin is no longer in Chengwu now? How good is that? ”
After scolding Xiang Yu, Xiang Liang asked with a worried face!
If Hu Hai is really not in Chengwu, then Xiang Liang will be embarrassed and thrown home this time! led hundreds of thousands of troops to hurry up, and there were no less than thousands of soldiers killed and injured by heat stroke along the way, not counting how much grain and grass was consumed by hundreds of thousands of troops from Suiyang to Chengwu along the way, but they didn't even see a single hair of the Qin Emperor, so what kind of face does Xiang Liang have to lead these hundreds of thousands of anti-Qin troops in the future?
The entire Xiang clan is afraid that they will lose face!
Zhang Liang looked at Xiang Liang, who was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and said slowly: "The general doesn't have to be anxious!" The ovary just said that Emperor Qin was not besieged in Chengwu by the young general, but he also said that Emperor Qin was not in Chengwu now! On the contrary, the ovary thought that Emperor Qin must still be waiting for us to come to Chengwu at this moment! ”
"Aha! That's good, that's good! Xiang Liang had already been convinced by Zhang Liang, and when he heard Zhang Liang say that Hu Hai must be in Chengwu, his heart suddenly burst into joy! As the words came out, Xiang Liang seemed to think of something.
"Wait, just now the ovary said that Emperor Qin must be waiting for me in Chengwu to wait for the army to come?" Xiang Liang said suspiciously!
"Yes! Then Emperor Qin is really waiting for me! Zhang Liang shook the pu fan and said leisurely!
"I waited for hundreds of thousands of troops to come to kill this person, and he fled without hearing about it, and dared to wait for my hundreds of thousands of troops to come in Chengwu City? Could it be that the little Qin Emperor's head is really burned and confused? Could it be that he really thinks that with his more than 20,000 Qin troops, he can withstand my hundreds of thousands of troops? People say that the second Qin Emperor is mediocre, and Liang thinks that he is not mediocre, but stupid! Hahaha! ”
When Xiang Liang said that he was excited, he couldn't help laughing first!
Zhang Liang, who was shaking the pu fan on the side, heard Xiang Liang's words as such an idiot, and his head was suddenly full of black lines! Wasn't he like this when he saw this beam before, could it be that after being with him for a long time, this beam has become so stupid? Or is it because you're too smart?
Zhang Liang was speechless!
"General!"
Zhang Liangluo's dissatisfied words interrupted Xiang Liang's self-conscious laughter!
"Huh!" Xiang Liangtian went to Zhang Liang with dissatisfied words, and the laughter suddenly stopped! "If you have something to say in the ovary, please speak!"
Although it was a headache for Xiang Liang to become so stupid, Zhang Liang was still very satisfied with Xiang Liang's attitude towards him!
"General, do you remember the letter from Handan?" Zhang Liang asked!
"A letter from Handan?" Xiang Liang was a little puzzled, and then seemed to remember something, and suddenly his face was solemn, "What the ovary said is ......"
"Exactly!" Seeing that Xiang Liang finally figured it out, Zhang Liang nodded with relief!
"In the eyes of the ovary, now the 60,000 troops under the command of the major general are afraid that they will be more than lucky! Since Emperor Qin was waiting for Meng Tian's army to come to the rescue, and wanted to finish our army in one fell swoop, how could he let the 60,000 army converge with our army to increase our strength? ”
"Don't stop there!" Xiang Liang was still very confident in Xiang Yu's combat power, and said with doubts!
"Now that our army has arrived in Chengwu, I think we will definitely be able to receive the letter from the major general later, and we will know when the time comes! It's just that now, the ovary really has some affection for this Qin Emperor! ”
Zhang Liang did not argue with Xiang Liang on the issue of whether Xiang Yu's 60,000 Baiyue barbarians were still there, and the topic changed!
"Indeed it is! If things are really as the ovary said, this little Qin Emperor seems to be more courageous than the first emperor! When Xiang Liang heard Zhang Liang's words, he immediately looked deeply impressed!
When mentioning the three words of the First Emperor, even Xiang Liang, who hated Great Qin to the core, was fascinated!
When Zhang Liang heard Xiang Liang's words, he didn't have an interface, he hated Daqin more than anyone else, and hated the first emperor that Xiang Liang was fascinated by!
"Now it seems that this battle is a vicious battle! The general should prepare early! If I don't take Chengwu and take the head of the Qin Emperor within three days, then I can only retreat and return! Even Chen County and other places must be given up together, and they should be returned to the south of the Jiujiang Huai River! ”
Zhang Liang directly pointed out the consequences of returning in vain if this martial arts battle!
"Hmm!" Xiang Liang nodded solemnly!
They didn't know at this moment that in addition to Meng Tian's more than 100,000 troops, there were also Han Xin's more than 100,000 troops coming from Yingchuan at this moment!
Of course, Zhang Liang is not wrong about one thing, if Xiang Liang does not take Hu Hai's head in the end, he will indeed have to retreat directly to Shouchun, the capital of Xinchu, and then slowly figure it out!
While Xiang Liang and Zhang Liang were discussing Hu Hai, the 8,000 Great Qin Elite Cavalry led by Du Teng, Xiahou Ying, and Fan Xu had already approached Sima Ang's 50,000 former army!
In the wilderness in broad daylight, such a large-scale cavalry movement could not hide from anyone! The overwhelming dust and the rumbling hooves of the horses roared quickly, approaching the sleepy Sima Ang 50,000 front troops!
As the Great Qin cavalry approached, Sima Ang, who was in the Great Army Formation, immediately received the news!
Even if there was no personal guard report, this rumbling earthquake trembled, and he knew that a large group of cavalry was coming towards him!
Now, in addition to the 5,000 Jiangdong Iron Cavalry in Xiang Liang's army at the moment, the entire rebel army has more than 300,000 people, and there are less than 2,000 horses in total! And these less than 2,000 war horses, except for the horses in the rear army pulling baggage and grain and grass, most of the remaining horses are under the crotches of these high-ranking generals!
Some middle-level generals can only walk on two feet like ordinary soldiers, and they don't even have a horse to walk! And Xiang Yu's 60,000 soldiers who came to Chengwu were all foot soldiers, and there was not a single war horse!
Then, with so many cavalry rushing straight over, there seems to be only one possibility, and that is the Great Qin cavalry!
Thinking about this problem, Sima Ang found that his head didn't seem to be enough!
There were only 20,000 Great Qin soldiers accompanying Emperor Qin, and he had to face the siege of 60,000 hundred Yue barbarians under Xiang Yu, who was now said to be besieging Emperor Qin, how could he still have the strength to attack his own army?
What about the 60,000 people besieging Emperor Qin? Could it be that there were only 20,000 people around Emperor Qin? Then Emperor Qin simply set a trap for his people to send them over?
Sima Ang was suddenly frightened into a cold sweat by his series of thoughts! He even regretted it a little at the moment, what did he do to raise troops against Qin and take refuge in Xiang Liang? Not only were tens of thousands of soldiers under his command deprived by Xiang Liang, but at this moment, he seemed to be stupidly following the news that Xiang Liang, who was said to have a reliable report, that Emperor Qin was besieged in Chengwu, and rushed to kill Emperor Qin!
Although Sima Ang thought so in his heart, it was obvious that it was impossible for him to escape alone from the army at this moment, and the most important thing was that he knew very well that his horse with short legs and short legs could not outrun Daqin's war horse at all!
Running away now is purely early death, and there are still hundreds of thousands of troops in the army to back it up!
Sima Ang reined in his thoughts, and while ordering his guards to quickly go to the Chinese army to spread the message that Xiang Liang's front army was attacked by the Qin army, he ordered the soldiers of the front army to set up a position and prepare to resist the upcoming attack of the Qin cavalry!
Nearly 10,000 cavalry galloped in the wilderness, not in person, it is difficult for ordinary people to imagine what it is like to face nearly 10,000 cavalry charges!
The black torrent that seemed to be able to crush everything to pieces was rapidly approaching, and the huge and incomparably huge pressure accompanied by the heavier and heavier earthquake trembled and quickly approached Sima Ang's front army!
Du Teng's thought was very simple, he was going to use a dignified charge to destroy the morale of these hundreds of thousands of rebels!
As for the combat strength of the rebels, although he has not personally fought with the rebels, he has been dealing with the more fierce Baiyue Barbarians every day for the past two days! From this to that! Du Teng also roughly guessed the combat power of these rebels!
The most important thing is that everyone knows that it is impossible for Baiyue Barbarians to have so many people, so now the combat power of Xiang Liang's hundreds of thousands of rebels must be discounted again on the original basis!
This is also why, knowing that Xiang Liang's front army had at least 50,000 troops, Du Teng still insisted on leading the army to attack!
As one of the first people to be promoted from prisoners to generals, Du Teng knew very well what the Great Qin cavalry equipped with horseshoes should be in the Bashang battalion! It is no exaggeration to say that he led 10,000 banners fully equipped with saddles, stirrups and horseshoes, and he even dared to directly challenge 100,000 rebels!
This is not arrogance, after all, in the face of absolute strength, quantity often brings not advantages, but huge hidden dangers! If one person collapses, then the collapse of more than 100,000 rebellious troops will be a disaster!
Now, the 50,000-strong Sima Angqian army is receiving the powerful impact of nearly 10,000 Great Qin Black Iron Cavalry!
Most of these people are ordinary people who come in coercion and become soldiers with a wooden stick! They have never been on the battlefield, how can they face such a big battle!
As far as the eye can see, countless black-armored Great Qin cavalry are quickly slaughtering with indomitable momentum! The earthquake trembled, the hoofs thundered, and the whole heaven and earth seemed to be only the black torrent in front of me and the roar of horses' hooves in my ears!
Everyone believed that even if there was Mount Tai standing in front of them and others at this moment, I was afraid that they would be crushed and flattened by these fierce Great Qin Jing Riders!
Sima Ang looked at the galloping Great Qin Jingqi, and his face was also frightened, and his face turned pale!
This was also the first time he had really seen the frontal charge of the Great Qin Spirit Cavalry on the battlefield! That incomparable pressure is going crazy! There were still hundreds of paces away, but there was already an endless wind blowing through the dust!
Xiang Liang's 50,000 former army all looked at the approaching black torrent with trembling!
Finally, a soldier in tattered clothes with a wooden stick in his hand could no longer stand such a huge pressure, and a stream of water with a fishy smell bubbled down his crotch, and with an "ah" he threw down the wooden stick in his hand as a weapon and turned around and ran!
