From Pengcheng to Daliang, that is, the distance from Xuzhou to Kaifeng, in the era of trains and highways in later generations, this section of the journey took three to four hours, but at the end of Qin, there was no seven or eight days, Liu Bang's army could not reach the Daliang area, during this period of time, if Liu Bang's front army and the rear army marched at different speeds, and the front and back were out of touch, Li Yuan would not mind giving Liu Bang another profound lesson.

Beam.

After the ruined capital of the Wei State was abandoned for a long time, it ushered in a very strange Qin army, which carried weapons not swords, not crossbows, but bundles of long bamboo poles, batches of hoes and other agricultural tools used for digging, and then, these Qin soldiers began to destroy the city incomprehensibly.

The smooth road was dug up, the river that ran through the city was diverted to the dark river, and the collapsed houses were rebuilt, and the people in the Junyi area were already immune to Li Yuanjun's strange actions. In this difficult and chaotic world, it is not easy to live. There is no leisure to pay attention to other things.

Time flies by day by day.

The anxiety of the soldiers of the Qin army began to show on their faces, and even Wang Shang, who began to propose a fight, became uncertain, what if Liu Bang's army was compact in front and rear and couldn't find a suitable fighter? You must know that it is not pleasant to be chased and killed by tens of thousands of enemy troops.

When encountering major events, you need to be calm.

Li Yuan is still arranging various preparatory activities for the battle of Daliang as always, and he has to personally inspect each arrangement, shiyan himself, this is an opportunity to test intelligence and the application of science and technology, whether the existing conditions in ancient times and advanced ideas can be perfectly combined, it depends on the degree of hard work in ordinary times.

Daliang, the new garrison of the Qin army.

"Report, scout urgently, Liu Bang sent Cao Shen, Fan Xu, and Li Shang as the vanguard, leading 5,000 elite soldiers to Xingyang, and the forward arrived in Yangwu last night."

"According to the investigation, Lord Yang Xiong led an army of 30,000 yesterday and went out of the city to Daliang."

Li Yuan benefited a lot from his many years of military career, and the arrangement of the scouts, the reactions of all parties, the survey of the terrain and landforms, the names of the enemy generals who led the troops, and their hobbies -- these seemingly chaotic pieces of information were summed up to be the most accurate operational analysis report.

Wang Shang, Zhou Xing, Gan Houbo and other Qin army marquis, the head of the Qu Dynasty looked solemn, there was Liu Bang's army in front, Yang Xiong's army in the back, and Li Yuan's army was in the middle of the front and rear The situation was very bad, at this suffocating moment, they hoped that they would still be the same as before, as a cavalry general who only carried out orders.

"Urgent report, twenty miles west of Junyi, the rebel smoke and dust have been found, and the number of people is about five or six hundred-!" Li Yuan looked at the situation in his hand, an imperceptible smile appeared on his face, and said: "Gentlemen, the enemy has appeared, listen to my orders." ”

"Zhou Xing."

"Yes."

"Order you to lead 200 soldiers to ambush in the left laneway of Daliang City, and when the enemy is coming, you will see the fire in the city tower as a signal, and lead the army to cover the enemy, and remember the road signs in the city."

"Gan Houbo."

"Yes."

"Order you to lead 200 soldiers to ambush in the right lane of Daliang City, and if there is an enemy attack, you will see the fire in the city tower, and you will cover up and kill it together with Zhou Xingbu."

"Wang Shang."

"I order you to lead the cavalry to a detour to the wilderness three miles east of the great river, and when you see an enemy defeated and retreat here, you will annihilate all the remnants of the enemy."

"The rest of the people, wait with me to guard Junyi."

"No!"

Li Yuan sent troops to point the generals, full of confidence, so that the morale of the generals was high, and the fighting spirit was overwhelming, and in addition to the awe in the eyes of Li Yuan, there was also the excitement of the death of the soldier as a confidant. The two marquis bamboo pole soldiers in the army were ambushed in Daliang City, and the most effective hundred horsemen were sent by him to intercept and kill the remnants of the enemy, and he himself did not hesitate to take on the important task of luring the enemy.

It's a one-time gamble!

In this battlefield feast where you don't gamble or lose, Li Yuan has no qualifications to abstain, what he has to do is to fight big with small and fight with life.

If Liu Bang's vanguard officer was a cautious enough general to consider the overall situation, then he only needed to gather all his troops and attack eastward in the form of a group, then all Li Yuan's arrangements would be useless, with a force of about 1,000 troops to deal with nearly 5,000 enemies, and he was also the vanguard of the Chu army used to attack the fortified village, the Qin army would end up with a head break and a bloody defeat.

Although there is no exact information to confirm who is the forerunner among the three generals of Cao Shen, Li Yuan bets that Liu Bang will send a fierce general to serve as the pioneer of opening the road in the mountains and building bridges in the water, after killing Ji Xin and defeating Peng Yue in a heads-up position, Li Yuan's bravery is enough to impress Liu Bang, and the reason why the fierce generals are brave is that in addition to this strength, in other aspects, the intelligence of the fierce generals is not necessarily enough.

Fan Xu, Liu Bang's brother-in-law, the most trusted and courageous general, among the three generals, he is the most pioneer.

With Fan Xu's consistent style, coupled with the anger of wanting to avenge Ji Xin, Fan Xu will not pay attention to any conspiracy and tricks, and will be blocked by the enemy.

In order not to be discovered by the possible scouts of the rebels, or to be leaked by the people, he did not order the mobilization before the battle, or to transport the remaining grain and straw in advance, anyway, these days, only can not go in and out, and there is not much excess grain left in the Qin army's warehouse, and staying in the city can still give Fan Hao the illusion that the Qin army is invincible and retreating.

"Luo Jia, pass the order, the whole army has been cooking, eating and drinking, and fighting with the enemy!" Li Yuan strode up the Junyi earthen wall, looking at the outer city where the grass grew under the sunset, and he was nervous in his heart. This is the first time that Li Yuan has strategized as the chief general of the army, and whether it is just talking about troops on paper or winning a decisive victory for thousands of miles needs to be tested in actual combat. From corporal to major regiment commander, Li Yuan didn't know if he could cross the gap at one time.

There is always a price to be paid for luring the enemy.

If you want to let Fan Xu be fooled, you need to symbolically resist for a while, if you lose too quickly, Fan Xu is not stupid, once you are suspicious, Li Yuan's arrangement in the girder will be in vain.

Time is ticking, and finally, it's time to come.

When the bright red color on the eastern horizon suddenly appeared, a boulder in Li Yuan's heart finally landed, and the pioneer sent by Liu Bang was Fan Xu, he bet right!

The Qin dog of the Great Liang was in front of him, and Fan Xu couldn't wait to beat the banner out, and he wanted to announce to the Qin army on the opposite side that it was a fierce general named Fan Xu who defeated them.
