Chapter 391: Han Xinbing

On the outskirts of Pengcheng, the wilderness is silent.

Long before the arrival of the army of Chu, the people within a radius of dozens of miles had fled into Pengcheng, and at this time, half a figure had long been missing in the wilderness on the outskirts of Pengcheng, leaving only a mess, and a few voles were wandering in the pile of debris left by the fleeing people, and from time to time they would raise their pointed little heads and scan the surroundings vigilantly.

Without warning, a muffled "thump" suddenly sounded in the wilderness.

Suddenly, several voles that were looking for food in the debris pile let out a squeak, and then hid in a hole not far away as fast as they could, and one vole was brave enough to hide at the mouth of the hole to observe the situation, and then there was a muffled bang, and the vole shrank into the hole.

In the lonely wasteland, hundreds of horses were pulling twenty carts slowly.

On the heavy cart, there are twenty marching war drums that are more than two people high, and twenty big men with bare chests and backs, and knotted muscles stand in front of the war drums like twenty iron towers, and the rising sun rises in the east, shining on the bronze skin of this group of big men, looking from afar, like twenty golden gods of war.

Suddenly, the twenty big men raised a huge drumstick at the same time, smashing heavily on the cowhide drum surface, and a series of passionate and high-pitched sounds exploded from the twenty cowhide drums in an instant, and then converged into a huge note, the loud sound of "dong" almost wanted to shatter the dead wasteland, and also easily ignited the raging fire of war in the hearts of the soldiers of the Chu army.

Stand on a towering drum stand and look down. I saw an endless ocean of armor from under the drum frame to the end of the field of vision, the surging armor, the rows of towering spears, the cold shields, and the cherry red tassels. Almost obscuring the whole wasteland.

Among the ten thousand armies, two hundred sturdy wrestlers carried a hundred horns more than a foot long, and slowly moved forward, while another hundred strong men with fat heads, big ears and bulging bellies followed behind, puffing out their huge cheeks and playing hard. In an instant, the sound of a trumpet from hell rushed into the sky.

"Knock, knock......"

"Woo, woo, woo. Woowoowoooooooo......oo

The passionate war drums became higher and higher, more and more dense, like a storm beating on the hearts of the soldiers of the Chu army, and the low horn, like a call from the Nine Hells, instantly ignited the raging fire of war in the hearts of the soldiers of the Chu army, and a shadowless and invisible aura of slaughter spread endlessly on the field in an instant.

Under the lonely sun, the army of 200,000 Chu was like an endless ant colony, spreading over the desolate wilderness and the low mountain beams. Running through the criss-crossing Qianmo, surging forward, ahead, at the end of the field of vision, a huge city has revealed a faint outline, that is Pengcheng, the former capital of Chu. Today's Huainan is the national capital.

Pengcheng, South Gate Watchtower.

Yingbu's face sank like water, staring at the endless wilderness of the south for a moment, and suddenly, a faint drum sound reached his ears. The fat baht, Zhu Jian, Zhang Mai, Ma Ye and others behind Su Li Yingbu also changed color together, the Chu army, the Chu army finally arrived.

Yingbu's face showed a hint of pain, his Huainan Kingdom, I am afraid it will be difficult to escape this catastrophe.

But soon, the color of pain disappeared from Yingbu's face, and was replaced by a trace of inexplicable hideousness, and there was a trace of madness in his eyes.

In front of the field of vision, the majestic outline of Pengcheng is already in sight.

Among the ten thousand armies, Bi Shu's right hand suddenly slowly raised, and in an instant, hundreds of Lingqi rode away from behind Bi Shu in all directions. ..., the general has an order, the whole army stops advancing!

In the sound of orders one after another, the army of Chu State, which was marching forward, stopped one after another.

The sound of hurried horses' hooves, the Ziche Division, Xi Qilie and the generals of the Yu Zi Period had already ridden their horses behind Bi Shu, and the Zicha Division clasped his fists on the horse's back, and said loudly: "General, our army's morale is high, take advantage of the situation to attack the city!" ”

"Nope." Bi Shu shook his head and said indifferently, "Pass the order, and the whole army will camp on the spot." ”

The generals looked at each other, Yu Ziqi hesitated, but still said: "The method of using soldiers, ten to surround it, five to attack it, and to fight it if it is doubled, now our army is twice as large as the Huainan army, and it has the advantage of equipment, how can we not fight?" ”

Bi Shu waved his hand and said indifferently: "Although the Huainan army is not as strong as our army, but there are strong reinforcements outside, before the hope is not lost, they will definitely fight to the death, our army will be difficult to break the city in a hurry, if you reluctantly attack the city, it will only consume the troops in vain, and it will also lose the sharpness, which is not appropriate." ”

As he spoke, Bi Shu suddenly remembered the first battle of Huainan.

In the first battle of Huainan, Han Xin had enough time to break through Pengcheng, but he had to wait until the arrival of Chu reinforcements before making a move, but I am afraid that it was also out of the same considerations, right? Because before the reinforcements were destroyed, the defenders had hope that they would definitely defend the city desperately, which would inevitably cause greater losses to the Qi army, so Han Xin chose to stay put.

This time, Bi Shu also chose to stay put, he had to wait for reinforcements from Qi State.

In fact, the reason why Bi Shu chose to stand still is because of deeper considerations, this time to rescue Huainan Kingdom, did Qi State really only send reinforcements all the way? Han Xin's soldiers never leave room for people, as a rare soldier in the world, how could he not know that the Battle of Huainan was actually a strategic decisive battle between Qi and Chu?

Lou Jing hurriedly walked into Han Xin's bedroom, his eyebrows were full of melancholy, Su Weilang came to Cao Ji late at night to pass the edict, and asked him to enter the palace as soon as possible. As soon as he thought of this, Lou Jing was anxious.

At this time, the Qi country can be described as internal and external troubles, and it is really inseparable from the king!

Lou Jing hurriedly walked into the dormitory in three steps and two steps, but saw the king lying on the soft couch with his back on his back, and the male doctor was giving him a golden needle, hearing the sound of footsteps, Han Xin tilted his head slightly, and smiled at Lou Jing: "Coming?" ”

Looking at the ruddy look on Han Xin's face, Lou Jing unconsciously breathed a long sigh of relief, then slammed it to the ground, and respectfully saluted Han Xin: "Minister, see the king." ”

It happened that the imperial physician of the ram had already finished administering the needle, so he helped Han Xin to sit up and put on a brocade robe for him.

Han Xin lightly exhaled a breath of turbidity and said to Lou Jing: "Yaxiang, the widow summoned you overnight, just for one thing, tomorrow morning, the widow will lead the army to the battle, and all the affairs in the country will be entrusted to you." ”

"Huh?" Lou Jing was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then his face changed dramatically, "The king wants to recruit in person?" ”

Han Xin nodded, sighed and said: "Alas, the prince is still young after all, although he is assisted by Zijin, I am afraid that he is not Bishu's opponent, if the widow does not personally conquer, the battle of Huainan will be defeated." ”

"But......" Lou Jing said with a sigh, "Your body, King?" ”

Han Xin waved his hand and said, "It's okay to have the Ram Imperial Doctor with you." ”

Lou Jing pondered for a moment and then said: "Great King, Zhao State is an ally of Chu State, and there are only 50,000 soldiers left in Linzi City now, but I don't know how many people the king intends to take away?" "Lou Jing can't help but consider, if Han Xin takes away most of the army in Linzi, once the army of Zhao crosses the river and attacks, how can the Qi army resist?

Han Xin smiled slightly and said, "The 50,000 guards in Linzi City, the widow will not take away a single soldier. After saying this, Han Xin said again, "Don't hide it from Yaxiang, long before the prince led the army to the expedition, the widow had already ordered the general to go to Langxie to assemble the army, and at this moment, the guards of Jiaodong and Langxie counties should have completed the assembly." "..., Lou Jing's heart suddenly sank when he heard this, no wonder after the conscription edict was issued, only the guards of Jibei, Linzi, Xue County and Liangdi counties rushed to Lu County to assemble, but the guards of Langxie and Jiaodong counties did not move, Lou Jing was quite puzzled at the beginning, but now it seems that the king of daring has already made careful arrangements.

The southern suburbs of Pengcheng, the Chu army camp.

Five screens are lined up in the big tent of Bishu, and a map is hung on each screen, which is marked with criss-crossing arrows, and there are a large number of text notes under the map, if Han Xin sees it, he will be surprised, because the five maps depicted Huo Ran are the five most proud battles in his life.

The first picture: Ming Xiu plank road, dark crossing Chen Cang;

The second one: Attacking Pusaka in the open, crossing the sun and summer in the dark;

The third: Forming a formation against the water, breaking the Zhao army;

Fourth: Blocking the Weishui, flooding the dragon and;

The fifth: The battle of the wall, the overlord is defeated.

Bi Shu bowed his back slightly, and stopped in front of the five screens one by one to observe, although he had observed these five screens no less than a thousand times, and even with his eyes closed, he could imagine the situation map on these five screens, but even so, every time he observed the map, Bi Shu was still extremely careful, as if it was the first time to observe.

After carefully examining all five maps, Bi Shu fell into deep thought again.

"The way of using soldiers is nothing more than to win with the right and the odd." Bi Shu muttered while pondering, "Even if Han Xin is a rare soldier in ancient times, it is nothing more than this, with the right match, with the odd victory?" ”

After pondering for a long time, Bi Shu Huo Ran turned around and strode to the largest screen directly north of the big tent, but what hung on the screen was not Han Xin's brilliant achievements, but a huge map of Huainan, Bi Shu stretched out his right index finger, followed Linzi all the way down, passed through Lu County, Huling, Liuxian, Pengcheng, and finally stopped at a point.

Then Bi Shu's eyes gradually brightened, yes, this is it!
