On the second day of the fifth month of the first year of Great Qin II.

Before Xiang Yu's letter came, Xiang Liang already knew the number of Qin troops on the north bank of the Huai River and who the generals were. The fine work sent to Chenjun and Surabaya sent back detailed information to Xiang Liang, of course, including the news of the death of Zhang Er, Chen Yu and others.

When Xiang Liang saw the words "Wang Li leads the army" on the military situation, he could no longer remain indifferent.

The Xiang clan and the Great Qin Wang clan can be said to have grievances that are deeper than the sea and wider than the sky. Of course, this grievance is only resentment and not grace.

If the three major clans of Zhaoqujing of the late Chu can be said to be the indirect murderers of Xiang Yan's defeat and death, then Wang Li's grandfather Wang Qian's Wang clan is the direct murderer of the fall of Chu and the defeat of Xiang Yan.

In addition, after Wang Jian occupied the Chu State, he killed countless nobles of the family who resisted the rule of the Qin State, including the children of the Xiang family, in the Chu State, so if the destruction of Great Qin is the main goal of the Xiang clan or the Chu State that is about to be re-established, then the Wang clan is the person who attracts the hatred of the Xiang clan with the highest hatred value in Great Qin.

Xiang Liang took a deep breath, handed the letter in his hand to Fan Zeng, and said, "Sir, please take a look!" ”

Fan Zeng had already found some clues from Xiang Liang's expression, took the letter handed over by Xiang Liang and glanced at it cursoryly, and then understood why Xiang Liang, who had always been calm, was like this.

The hatred of the old Chu, the Xiang clan and the Wang clan Fan Zeng is also very clear as a Chu person.

"The general is...... Want to kill Wang Li? Fan Zeng put down the letter in his hand and asked.

"Not bad!" Xiang Liang said murderously.

"But general, Wang Li has 100,000 Great Qin elites, and Zhang Er Chen Yu's more than 300,000 troops were wiped out before they could be killed, and the country was destroyed. I am afraid that our army alone is tantamount to a sheep in the mouth of a tiger. Fan Zeng said worriedly.

Although Xiang Liang wanted to kill Wang Li, he had not yet reached the point where he was blinded by hatred. From the fact that Wang Li uprooted Zhang Er Chen Yu's Wei State in less than three days, we know the combat power of the Great Qin soldiers.

Although Wang Li is very confident in himself, fighting generals is only one aspect, more about soldiers, and his 80,000 soldiers who have been trained for less than seven days are probably a scum compared to the soldiers of Great Qin!

What's more, he didn't think that Wang Li was inferior to himself.

"Actually, it's not impossible to defeat Wang Li." Fan Zeng looked at Xiang Liangdao, who had been silent for a long time.

"Sir teach me!" Xiang Liang heard Fan Zeng's words and hurriedly said.

"If the general can get the 100,000 barbarian army of Yingbu to be attached, then our army will have 200,000 people. In this way, with the ability of the general's leading army and the Jiangdong elite of the young general, even if he can't kill Wang Li, he can defeat the 100,000 Qin troops on the north bank! ”

"Sir doesn't know, Liang has already sent a messenger to recruit that Jun Wu Rui seven days ago, but there is no news yet." Xiang Liang was also quite helpless about this.

"Oh? In this way, it is better for the general to wait for two more days, if there is no news from Wu Rui yet, he will be the general's envoy and go to persuade Wu Rui! Fan Zeng mentioned Wu Rui because he planned to persuade Wu Rui in person, after all, with this credit as a vote, he can also be used as a promotion qualification.

Although Xiang Liang trusts him now, if he doesn't have a little credit, how can he block other people's mouths?

In the afternoon, Xiang Yu's letter came.

After Long He withdrew from the dense forest last night, he crossed the Huai River directly, but he did not return to the place where Xiang Yu was hiding, but directly touched the place where the Yingbu army was stationed along the Huai River.

Although Yingbu also arranged a lot of secret sentinels, although the Baiyue barbarians were fierce, compared to the dark sentinels arranged by the Qin army scouts, it was simply a heaven and an underground.

Long He easily caught a Baiyue barbarian and brought him back to Xiang Yu's hiding place.

In the two days of secret fighting, the Baiyue barbarians temporarily assembled by Yingbu suffered heavy losses, and they did not catch the live mouth of the Great Qin scouts at all, let alone detect any useful information, except that they knew that the Qin army on the other side was the Qin army, and they did not even approach the Qin army's camp within five miles.

What's more, the Baiyue barbarian captured by Long He was just a small soldier, even if Yingbu found out what was going on, it was impossible for this soldier to know. So Xiang Yu tortured it, but didn't get any useful information.

Although he didn't get any useful information, Xiang Yu didn't blame the dragon, at least it was a great achievement to find the Yingbu army. Therefore, Xiang Yu still ordered someone to report to Xiang Liang the information he had discovered about the Yingbu army, and wrote on it that he had not detected the reality of the Qin army.

The news of the confrontation between the Yingbu army and the Qin army across the river in Xiang Yu's intelligence made Xiang Liang even more determined to persuade Wu Rui.

"The order is to order the major general to immediately lead the army and retreat to the Chinese army." Xiang Liang commanded loudly.

Xiang Liang was already arranging a plan to kill Wang Li, but if he wanted to annihilate Wang Li, his army could not be discovered by Wang Li in the first place, although it was impossible not to be completely unknown to Wang Li, but the later Wang Li found out, the more certain Xiang Liang's plan to kill Wang Li became.

After ordering Xiang Yu's eight thousand Jiangdong elites to retreat, Xiang Liang ordered people to secretly collect ships, while waiting anxiously with Fan Zeng for news from Wu Rui.

……

Wang Li did not find Xiang Liang's 80,000 troops more than 100 miles away, but the elite of the Great Qin scouts went deep into the hinterland of Jiujiang and found out the rebellion of Jiujiang and Huiji.

After receiving the news, Wang Li immediately ordered the Eagle Warrior to report the information he had collected to Hu Hai, and at the same time ordered the scouts to start searching for information about Xiang Liang's army. Wang Li already felt that Xiang Liang would definitely come if he knew that he was on the north bank of the Huai River.

The information that Hu Hai received in the Red and Green Jiabang was the letter sent back by Wang Li about Jiujiang and Huiji.

Ba Shang Battalion!

Hearing that after reading Wang Li's letter, Hu Hai keenly felt that Wang Li was about to face a huge crisis.

Xiang Liang will not let Wang Li go, knowing that Wang Li will definitely find a way to kill Wang Li on the north bank of the Huai River!

Originally, in history, Xiang Yu promised to kill Xiang Liang's Zhang Han to surrender, but killed the captured Wang Li, and then killed all the 200,000 Qin troops who surrendered, which is actually very intriguing.

Zhang Han killed Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu to have a chance to ascend to the throne is only one of the reasons, the most important thing is that there is another person who played a very important role in the process of Zhang Han surrendering and being crowned king.

The pit killing of 200,000 Qin troops is not only because Xiang Yu can basically be said to be the dominant family at that time, and the 200,000 Qin army will be a heavy burden and time bomb, but more importantly, Xiang Yu is very resentful.

Wang Li's family itself has a big enmity with the Chu State or the Xiang family, and 100,000 of the 200,000 Qin troops are Wang Li's army, and it is much easier to explain that Xiang Yu, who does not have the slightest affection for the Qin people, killed Wang Li and killed the Qin army.

The most important thing is that Wu Rui and Yingbu both attached themselves to Xiang Yu in the original history, and Liu Bang did not take refuge until the end. If there is no accident now, Yingbu should soon take refuge in Xiang Liang, Yingbu's rebels alone have more than 100,000, if Xiang Liang's Jiangdong Army is added, Wang Li is probably more than lucky.

It's not that Hu Hai doesn't have confidence in Wang Li, but that Wang Li can't be compared with his grandfather Wang Jian and father Wang Ben.

Wang Li is the general of Great Qin, if Wang Li is defeated and killed by Xiang Liang, then the blow to Great Qin is self-evident, not to mention feuds, just this Xiang Liang will not let go of this opportunity.

Hu Hai has a bit of a headache!

If Wang Li can defeat Yingbu's 100,000 army before Xiang Liang subdues Yingbu, then Wang Li's 100,000 army will not lose too badly in the face of Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu even if he loses.

Even if Xiang Yu has the courage of ten thousand people, but in large-scale group battles, although one person's bravery can play an unexpected role at a critical time, but today's Great Qin soldiers are different from the original history, Hu Hai believes that Xiang Yu may not be able to easily defeat the will to fight of the Great Qin soldiers now.

But if Wang Li wants to defeat Yingbu, he has to cross the Huai River, or Yingbu himself can come over, or will they fight each other with their eyes across a Huai River a few miles wide? I'm afraid that even if I'm blind, I can't die a person.

Wang Li's 100,000 troops are basically northerners from all over Guanzhong, basically they don't know the water surname, and they need boats to cross the river, not to mention whether Wang Li can find a boat that can pull 100,000 people to cross the river, and Yingbu will not watch Wang Li's army cross the river and then set up a decisive battle.

If you can send some reinforcements to Wang Li, it shouldn't be a big problem.

Reinforcements!?

Now the closest to Wang Li is Li Xin, who is guarding in Wuguan. However, in addition to the 20,000 Jiuyuan troops under Li Xin, the rest were less than 10,000 soldiers who originally guarded Wuguan, a total of less than 30,000 people.

Li Xinna also has Xinying, Hu Hai can quickly give orders to Li Xin, but Li Xin led the troops to leave Wuguan, so who will guard Wuguan?

"Liu Bang!"

"Your Majesty is here!" Liu Bang lifted the tent and bowed in response.

"Go and invite Zhang Aiqing and Wei Aiqing."

"Whoa!"

An hour later, Zhang Han and Wei Yi arrived together.

"Why is Your Majesty so sure that Yingbu will definitely join forces with that Liang?" After listening to Hu Hai's words, Wei Yi asked suspiciously. Zhang Han next to him was also puzzled, obviously both of them couldn't understand why Hu Hai was so sure that Wu Rui and Yingbu would definitely belong to Xiang Liang.

"I'm not sure!" Hu Hai said helplessly. Now that history has changed a lot, Hu Hai is really not sure. "But the two Aiqing, what if Wu Rui really belongs to Xiang Liang?"

Wei Yi and Zhang Han glanced at each other, and both knew that this possibility did exist.

"Your Majesty. If General Li Xin is ordered to lead the army to the aid of General Wang Li, what should Wuguan do? Wei Yu said.

"Wuguan? Compared with Wang Li, Aiqing, a martial arts pass is lost! Hu Hai said lightly, and then his voice changed, "If Wuguan is really lost, I can get it back!" ”

At this point, both Wei Yi and Zhang Han already understood that Hu Hai was determined to let Li Xin go out of Wuguan to help Wang Li's army.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Although it was a bit contemptuous of Wang Li's intention to send Li Xin to lead the army to aid Wang Li, for the sake of Wang Li and the 100,000 army, Wei Yi and Zhang Han still chose to follow Hu Hai's intentions.

"Intended! Ordered Li Xin to immediately lead 20,000 Jiuyuan troops out of Wuguan, Xingye and Cheng Cheng to help the army of King Li, Ruyin! Spread the decree that Wang Li, scouts came out in all directions, and strictly prevented the Yingbu army and Xiang Liang's army from crossing the Huai River to the north! Do not send troops to meet the enemy without authorization, and wait for Li Xin's army to arrive! ”

"Whoa!"

……

What Hu Hai didn't know was that the situation facing Wang Li had taken a turn for the worse at this moment
