After dealing with the aftermath of the second elder, Han Xin asked from the people in the village where this group of rebels came from.

This is the West Route Army sent by Wuchen to capture the land east of the river, the main general is Li Ying, he is leading the main force to sit in Jinyang, this chaotic army is a group sent by Li Ying to attack Pang County.

Now that he knew where the revenge was, Han Xin said goodbye to the tomb of the second elder and went to Pangcheng alone.

Found a big bow from the leader of the rebels he killed, Han Xin opened it and tried it, it was not bad, and he collected three pots of arrows for backup. The rebels left behind an old horse, although it was not a good horse, but it also gave Han Xin a lot of confidence.

The village was not close to the county seat, so Han Xin set off before noon and arrived in two hours.

When I went to a high ground, I looked down condescendingly, and saw the sound of killing under the high ground, and thousands of righteous troops were attacking the city.

This rebel army of almost 2,000 people, all light infantry, more than 100 brave men in front of the army naked, carrying a shield in their left hand and a big sword in their right hand, climbed up the city wall from the ladder and fought hand-to-hand with the defenders.

Pang County is only a small county, the garrison is only a few hundred, and the short city wall is only one and a half feet high. Usually it is more than enough to deal with some rogue horse thieves, but when it comes to a large army attacking the city, there is little defense. Fortunately, this rebel army came in a hurry, and it was not long after it became an army, so it did not carry any siege equipment, and the soldiers did not have enough combat experience, and they were all at a loss when facing the high wall, which allowed the defenders of Pangcheng to support them for two days.

Later, a Qin soldier suggested to the leader that he build a simple ladder to siege the city. The leader of the rebel army suddenly realized, and hurriedly asked him to take a group of soldiers to build a cloud ladder, and at the same time sent several teams to loot grain and grass in the surrounding villages, and it was one of them that Han Xin encountered.

With the help of the ladder, the rebel army will get twice the result with half the effort when attacking the city, and in less than two hours, the wall of Pangcheng is full of loopholes, although the county lieutenant who defends the city is extremely brave, but he has no choice but to have more than 600 soldiers. The rebels relied on the advantage of numbers to attack the head of the city, steadily occupying a corner, and reinforcements also continued to attack through the ladder. Although the Qin army fought back desperately and wanted to force the rebels down from the city, the general trend was gone, and the fall of Pangcheng was only a matter of time.

The leader of the rebel army under the city couldn't help laughing when he saw this, although his soldiers suffered heavy casualties, but he didn't care, as long as the city was conquered and the granary was opened, at that time, thousands of troops could be re-recruited with a casual shout.

In troubled times, having food and land is the most important thing.

The leader was looking at Pang Cheng with great ambition, and his heart was full of joy, thinking about how to snatch countless wealth after capturing Pang County, and how to find a few beautiful women to be happy. Of course, you have to honor the eldest Li, and the rest is to enjoy it yourself.

This rebel army was still in a good mood when it came out of Henan, but after crossing the river, the military ministers were eager to expand, so they recruited troops and horses, and some bandits and rogues poured into the ranks of the rebels, and even the atmosphere of the whole army also corroded. In Handan, Julu still have some scruples, as soon as they get out of Jingcheng Pass to Hedong, they will loot and kill unscrupulously, and the slightest unhappiness is to slaughter the village and slaughter the city. The behavior has nothing to do with the self-proclaimed 'rebel army', and is more like a group of organized bandits.

The chief's eyes narrowed, and he was itching, when he heard a commotion behind him, and turned back and shouted; "What is the noise, and if you quarrel again, let you go to the city."

Following the noisy reputation, he saw a horse rushing down the mountain in the distance, and the knight looked like Qin Bing's attire, and couldn't help but be stunned, wondering if this person had a problem with his brain, and rushed over alone, this is not looking for death.

A soldier approached and said in a trembling and startled manner; "Boss, that person is the one who killed Yu Tou, and more than a hundred of our brothers, all of whom he killed."

The leader was shocked, and was hesitating whether to form a formation to defend against the enemy, and was afraid that the formation of thousands of troops was just to deal with a Qin soldier, and if it was spread, people would laugh at him for being cowardly. At this time, Han Xin had already stopped, and from a distance of almost two arrows, he opened his bow and shot. I saw that he was skillful, and the rebels screamed again and again, and more than a dozen people had fallen in a moment's effort.

When the leader saw him with such a miraculous skill, he couldn't help but tremble, and hurriedly drew his big sword and shouted; "Go up to me and kill him." The soldiers rushed forward in a hurry, but he himself quietly retreated.

Seeing the righteous army rushing towards him, Han Xin turned his horse's head unhurriedly and ran to shoot, the arrows were not missing, and when the three pots of arrows were released, nearly 100 volunteers had been killed. Only then did Han Xin throw the big bow, dismount and pull out the fish intestines, and rushed forward with a roar.

Kill one person in ten steps, and don't stay for a thousand miles.

The fish intestines and swords danced like flying, light and elegant, like Ling Bo, but everywhere they brought up a piece of flesh and blood, and the stumps and broken arms fell one after another with the screams of the rebels. Han Xin's eyes were red, and blood seemed to ooze from his eyes. For the first time, he was so angry, so bloodthirsty, that he wanted to kill everyone in front of him.

He has never been a murderous person, even if he kills bloodily in Mobei, it is just to survive. But now it's different, what he feels from Aunt Zhang's body is a strong maternal love, although he is just a substitute for her son, but their old couple saved his life, how is it not equivalent to the reinvention of parents.

The blade of the fish intestine trembled slightly under the high-speed rotation, like a tiger roaring and a dragon groaning. Han Xin strode forward, like a ball of silver light, and in an instant, nearly a hundred people rushed in front of him, and they were all killed and wounded. All the soldiers looked at Han Xin like a killing god with frightened faces, and they all pushed each other to stop, and even turned around and ran when they saw Han Xin killing.

This is the difference between the regular army and the rogues, if the Qin army is a military formation of hundreds of people, there are sword and shield hands in front, and there are bow and crossbow hands and halberd hands in the follow, and the layers are clear. No matter how high your martial arts are, colliding with the military formation is equivalent to sending you to death, and a steady stream of military formations can eventually trap and consume you to death.

But these hastily rushed rebels were different, most of them were honest peasants in the fields or robbers in the mountains a dozen days ago, and they fought completely by virtue of the strength of the number of people and the rush to the top. The weapons in his hands are also various, and there are even those wielding hoes, this kind of hasty army, fighting is nothing more than a group fight, how can he trap a master like Han Xin.

The rebels attacked the city head of the elite and brave soldiers, and most of the people who stayed in the camp were old and weak, and the leader saw that the soldiers in the camp were already timid, and hurriedly blew the trumpet to attract the strong reinforcements from the city. The elite of these rebels are all veterans who have followed the warriors all the way, although the number is only more than 300 people, but they have been in war for a long time and are the core force of the team.

As soon as these people joined, Han Xin felt pressured, and his fanatical brain slowly calmed down, no longer blindly doing brute force, but kept moving his position, specifically moving towards the weak place to fight.

Fortunately, although these people are the elite of the rebel army, they are far inferior to the elite phalanx of the Northern Army's infantry battalion. It's just that they are strong and brave, and they lack tacit understanding with each other, which makes Han Xin easy and calmly rampage through the rebel army.

The inferior armor of the rebel army could not stop the edge of the fish intestines at all, and the rebel army was stirred up by Han Xin, and the cowardly retreated one after another, and the leader was coercive and tempting, but to no avail.

At this time, the city gate suddenly opened, and hundreds of Qin troops took advantage of the situation to cover and kill. The rebel army was already in chaos by Han Xin, and was rushed by the Qin army's array, and immediately scattered and fled.

The Qin general was also a very strategic person, taking advantage of the chaos to immediately pounce directly on the leader of the rebel army, and killed the leader in the melee, and the severed head was lifted high. The Qin army cheered, and the righteous army was in turmoil, and they were suddenly defeated.

Han Xin chased and killed for a while, and then he was relieved. Seeing the Qin army rushing towards him from a distance, he became vigilant and raised his sword to be on guard.

But he saw that the Qin general rode away from the team, galloped towards him, suddenly turned over and dismounted, rushed up and knelt in front of Han Xin, and bowed down; "See General Han for your humble duties."

Han Xin was stunned for a moment, and looked at the Qin general suspiciously; "You are?"

The Qin general wiped the blood on his face, revealing two rows of white teeth, and said with a smile; "Don't you know the general?"

"Zhao Wuji." Han Xin said in surprise and slapped him on the shoulder, "Why are you kid." ”

This person is Han Xin's first appointment as Quhou when he was instructed by Tian City to give him a hundred generals Zhao Wuji, in the first battle of Mobei, Zhao Wuji followed Han Xin in a bloody battle, and killed a Xiongnu minister. After returning to Fushi, he was rewarded for meritorious deeds, and because he was a native of Pang County, he was transferred back to his hometown as the county lieutenant of Pang County through an application, which can be regarded as a return to his hometown.

originally thought that he would be able to enjoy Qingfu after returning home, but unexpectedly, less than a month after taking office, he heard the news of the rebellion in the Central Plains. After all, Zhao Wuji was a veteran officer of the Northern Army, and he keenly felt that the rebellion in the Central Plains might disturb the internal emptiness of Daqin, and it might spread to Hebei. In the past few months, he has been training the soldiers of Pang County, and thanks to this, he has been able to hold out for three days under the attack of the rebels.

Han Xin didn't expect to meet the old ministry here, Zhao Wuji was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked; "General Han, why are you here, is it that our northern army is going south. Haha, I'll just say, as long as our Northern Army comes, how can these clowns be our opponents. ”

Han Xin smiled bitterly, this Zhao Wuji was really brainless, and he didn't want to think about how he could come to the rescue alone if he came to the rescue on behalf of the Northern Army. I wanted to explain, but I didn't know where to start, so I had to shake my head.

Zhao Wuji was very grinning, and he didn't notice Han Xin's bitter smile at all, but looked up to the sky and laughed; "General Han, my old Zhao admires you for the five-body throw, if you can come, don't talk about the rabbit cub in Liying, even if it is a group of bastards like Wuchen and Chen Sheng, it is not a matter of waiting for death sooner or later. Can their chaotic army outperform the Huns? ”

At this time, a group of Zhao Wuji's subordinates also rushed up in a hurry, just now Han Xin's courage They had already seen it in the city, and the safety of the city depended on him to save it. Hearing that he turned out to be Han Xin, the big hero of the county lieutenant every day, he bowed down one after another, and Han Xin couldn't cry or laugh.

I saw a civil official wearing a gauze hat and black suit go out of the city gate in the crowd of a group of small officials, came to Han Xin and bowed to the end, and said respectfully: "Xiaguan Pang County ordered Wen Gao to participate in General Han. He had already learned Han Xin's identity from the soldiers sent by Zhao Wuji to return to Jie, so he rushed to greet him with a group of subordinate officials with joy.

Wen Xian Ling looked around at Han Xin with some doubts, and when he saw that he was only one person, he was surprised; "General Han, I don't know where your subordinates are."

Before Han Xin could speak, Zhao Wuji said disdainfully; "Master Wen, you scholars are just less knowledgeable and don't know the methods of our heroes to fight. You must know that our General Han swept Mobei with an army of less than 10,000 people and captured the royal court of the Xiongnu, so there are 200,000 troops of the Xiongnu, a full 200,000 army. Hmph, these thousands of rogues, General Han alone is enough, how can he use a large army to follow. ”

Nawen County Commander is also a nerd, not familiar with military affairs, and when he saw the Liukou attacking the city, he was so frightened that the six gods hid under the table, and it was no wonder that Zhao Wuji would look down on him. When he heard Zhao Wuji say this, he let out an 'oh' and looked at Han Xin suspiciously.

Han Xin couldn't help but blush when he heard Zhao Wuji help him boast like this, and just wanted to clarify, his heart suddenly moved, and he hesitated for a while and asked Zhao Wuji; "Lao Zhao, how many cities like you are there that haven't been captured by the rebels nearby?"

Zhao Wuji tilted his head and thought for a while, then replied; "There should be three or four more, Jiexiu County and Wu County came to us for help two days ago, Lao Tzu is a fart, there are only 600 soldiers in my city, and no one has come to save me." I don't know about Zishi and Yuci from a distance, but according to what I know about the rebels, they all divided their troops to surround several county towns, and then took one of them with heavy troops, and then attacked in turn. The first two times were to capture Lishi and Huoren, and this time it was my turn to Pang County, so it was okay to come to other counties for the time being. ”

Han Xin nodded, his face suddenly tightened, and he said to Wen Gao and Zhao Wuji solemnly; "Wen County Order, and Zhao County Lieutenant, I was ordered by General Wang Li, the marshal of the Northern Army, to come to Hedong to contact my Great Qin garrison. Unexpectedly, after coming, he found that Hedong had been eroded to this point, and saw that Pang County was in danger of being attacked by the rebels, so he couldn't help but help. ”

In fact, what Han Xin said was full of loopholes, Pang County was far away from the north and was close to Shangdang County, even if Han Xin went to contact, he should go to Jinyang City in the north to find the county guard, why would he make a big detour to Pang County in the south. Wen Xian Ling and Zhao Wuji nodded again and again, with an expression of gratitude.

Zhao Wuji is Han Xin's old subordinate, and he admires him to the extreme, what Han Xin says is what he says, he naturally will not have the slightest suspicion. As for the Wenxian order, he had long been frightened by the momentum of the rebel army, and he was panicking all day long and wanted to escape, and he was afraid that he would be held accountable for abandoning the city and escaping in the future.

In this way, Han Xin became the leader of the more than 400 remnants of the soldiers, and then went around to rescue other besieged counties in Taiyuan County under the banner of the special envoy of the Northern Army, gathered his troops for his own use, and soon gathered more than 4,000 soldiers.

On the land of Hebei, in addition to the Northern Army entrenched in the north, and the military ministers who occupied most of Hebei, a new force has risen. It's insignificant, but the other two can crush it with a snap of their fingers. But it has formed after all, and it is still trying to thrive in the gap between the two sides, little by little.

Finally, Li Ying, who occupied Jinyang City, heard that there was a Qin army in the south that appeared out of nowhere, and defeated several teams he sent one after another. Suddenly the thunder was furious, and immediately ordered the soldiers and horses, and the mighty army of 24,000 came out of Jinyang and rushed towards the south.

The Great War is on the verge of breaking out.
