Chapter 125: Beating the Reservoir Dogs

Nearly 50,000 Chu troops.

Talking and laughing, the ashes are gone.

Li Yuan's ability to win more with less in this battle made Han Xin feel admired and feared, but he didn't know that Li Yuan's tactics in this battle were based on Han Xin's classic example of fighting against the odds in the future Battle of Jingjing.

The fire is raging.

Fang Cai, the Chu soldier who rushed to the front, has now become the target of the Qin army behind.

The non-commissioned officers of the Chu army who had lost their fighting spirit had completely lost their formation, Yang Xi and other captains, captains, and cavalry generals were killed by the Qin army one by one, and the remaining pawns ran away one by one, hoping that they could run faster than their companions.

"It's over, it's over!" When Long He returned with the main force that had fled, he saw a debris and scorched earth that had been burned to the ground.

Like a boulder pressing on his heart, Long He only felt that this battle was really aggrieved. I thought that the Qin army would be killed on the river beach, no matter how tenacious it was, it would be absolutely impossible to hold out for a whole day, but when one after another ice walls that could be called miracles in the history of architecture appeared in front of Long Ji, this miracle became a reality.

God, it's not fair, the gloomy weather, the damn low temperature, the time is all taken up by the Li thief!

There are also incompetent guys like Lu Matong and Yang Xi, if they were braver, how could they not break through the ice wall defense line of the Qin people.

It's only a moment!

The dragon was defeated.

"General, Qin Gou is still in hot pursuit, what should I do?" The Chu army's pioneer Lu Matong's ability to escape is amazing, just now in front, he ran faster than Long and all of a sudden, if he hadn't seen the Chinese army banner of the Chu army, it is estimated that Lu Matong had already rushed back to the old camp early.

Of course, at this time, Lu Matong had completely lost his high-spirited appearance during the day, and the more than 6,000 soldiers who followed him were now only a few hundred or so.

"What's the panic, this battle is just a few days to make Li Thief a little proud, King Yong and King Zhai are afraid that they will enter Yongzhou City at this time." Long said calmly.

According to Li Yuan's troops dispatched in the battle of Qishan and Weishui, Long He believed that Li Yuan's remaining troops were less than 10,000 people, and in the face of this little Liliang, if Zhang Han and Dong Fei couldn't take it, they would have to go to see Xiang Yu.

"However, now that our army is scattered, Qin Gou is chasing very closely, I'm just afraid-!" Lu Matong swallowed, in fact, his original intention was to ask Long He for a favor, this time the defeat was too miserable, Yang Xi in the vanguard general has been killed, and he Lu Matong is still alive, if Long He is held responsible, then he can't get rid of it anyway.

"Captain Lu should be my great Chu fierce general, at this dangerous moment, Fang shows the true character of loyal ministers, so, after you lead the headquarters to break off, the rest of the generals will retreat with me to the front line of Fufeng and Xianyang." Long He snorted coldly and shouted. Lu Matong, a villain who can only slap the horse, has a glimpse of this kind of goods, and it is better to let him sacrifice his life for the country as soon as possible.

"General, I-!" When Lu Matong heard this, he immediately became frightened. Just now, the ferocity of the Qin army had already frightened him, and he finally escaped, but now he had to take on the task of breaking off, and Lu Matong's heart was like ashes for a while.

"You dare to disobey orders!" The dragon was furious.

"This, the last general's order is!" Lu Matong was glared at by the dragon, and he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, and at this time he woke up, and the number one general of the Chu army in front of him was murderous without blinking, known as the "Dragon King". In a fit of rage, if Long Ji killed him, he could completely shirk the death of the chaotic army, who would he Lu Ma Tong go to?

――。

The Qin army pursued and killed all the way.

After chasing more than 50 miles to collect troops and return to the camp, Lu Matong gathered a remnant of the army and tried to put up a dying resistance, but was shot in the throat by Feng Xuan's arrow, and immediately fell to his death.

As soon as LΓΌ Matong died, the Chu army dispersed.

Long He relied on Lu Ma Tong to attract the attention of the Qin army, retreated back to Fufeng from the path, and when he counted the people and horses, Long He, who had always refused to admit defeat, couldn't help but sigh.

Two thousand defeated.

This is all the remaining troops of Long Ji, even if you add more than 6,000 generals who stayed in Xianyang, Long Ji's hands are less than 10,000 people, and more importantly, Long Ji's losses this time are all the Chu soldiers who have followed him for many years and came all the way from Kanto, and they have lost this elite, and where can Long He recruit so many soldiers who are resentful of the Qin State.

Fufeng.

It is the second largest city in the west of the Guanzhong Plain, the city is towering, the city wall is also very strong, the Zhengguo Canal in the territory passes through the edge of the Loess Plateau, the two big rivers of Weishui and Weishui meet here, forming a thousand miles of fertile fields, the granary of Guanzhong.

This is also the logistics supply transit station for Long's attack on Yongqi, and the grain and straw requisitioned from Xianyang, Xiayi, Linxia and other eastern Guanzhong have to be transferred to the front line through Fufeng, among them: Longhe's main force occupies the largest share, Zhang Han's southern division is a little less, as for Dong Peng's northern partial division, it is mainly self-sufficient, and the requisition of Gaonu County to deal with a force of several thousand people, Dong Fei can't say what Longhe has about eccentricity.

The war was unfavorable, Long and in a bad mood, in desperation, he had to send scouts to Chencang and Gaonu to inquire about the military situation, the Qin army was imminent, only with these more than 2,000 people, it was impossible to hold the granary of Fufeng, Guanzhong. The only hope now is that the two partial divisions of Yongwang Zhanghan and Zhai Wang Dong Fei can take advantage of the opportunity of the Qin army to enter the hinterland of Yongqi and give Li Yuan a tooth for a tooth.

However, before the dragon could take a breath, Yang Wu and Lu Sheng, the two lieutenant generals in charge of grain transportation, also fled to Fufeng with a defeated army.

"Yang Langzhong, Lu Langzhong, you and others escorted the grain, why are you so embarrassed, where is the baggage?" Long He saw Yang Wu and Lu Sheng's frightened looks, and couldn't help but be angry. Under his own hands, there is no general who can stand alone, all these soft eggs who only eat dry food and can't work, this battle cannot be won, the root lies in these incompetent people.

The Chu army that once swept through the eastern part of the country and killed the Qin army in Julu and Thorn Plains is gradually becoming corrupted in the praise again and again, the generals have no enterprising spirit, and the soldiers only think about reaping benefits, how can such an army win the battle.

"Report to the general, the big thing is not good, Xianyang, Xianyang Road was cut off by the cavalry of the Qin people, and we were surrounded?" Yang Wu cried and was stunned.

Three days ago, Yang Wu and Lu Sheng led a thousand soldiers and 3,000 servants to escort the grain from Xiayi, and just entered the Liyi area on the periphery of Xianyang, they were attacked by the Luo Jia cavalry who ambushed here, the grain was burned, and the servants were scattered.
