Chapter 142: Mental War (Extended Version)
This war between Qin Xiaobai and Han Xin is actually more like a mental war, a gamble, betting on who is more crazy.
And the result, it is obvious that Qin Xiaobai won, because Qin Xiaobai can fight to the death, or can only fight to the end, anyway, for him, this is already a copy of death.
But Han Xin couldn't, because Han Xin was too involved, and Han Xin had never been a gambler, and he didn't dare to gamble with the barefoot Qin Xiaobai when he was wearing shoes, so he naturally fell for Qin Xiaobai's plan.
And this strategy is not a military strategy in the traditional sense, Qin Xiaobai has no military adviser at all, this is a conventional strategy, and it is not recognized by the system as having no effect bonus.
Of course, if it is a system-judged strategy of the military advisor, then there is a greater possibility. It was cracked by Han Xin.
Originally, Han Xin thought that Qin Xiaobai would not agree to him anyway, he just tried it with the mentality of trying, but he didn't expect Xiaobai to agree in one bite.
This surprised Han Xin, because the high morale of the Chu army could not be maintained all the time, and it was impossible for him Qin Xiaobai to succeed in two consecutive raids on him.
In addition, because the Chu army has been cut off from food and grass, no matter how powerful the spiritual food is, it is impossible to turn it into real food, and the morale of the Chu army will naturally collapse without a fight.
Even if Xiang Yu defy the sky, if he can still maintain the morale of the Chu army, then when the Chu army is so weak that he is so hungry that he can't even hold a gun, what is the use of the morale.
Therefore, as long as Qin Xiaobai let go of this opportunity, Han Xin decided that the next time he went to the battlefield would be the death date of this Western Chu overlord.
However, Han Xin was not surprised for a while, and his face turned black in an instant.
Although Qin Xiaobai agreed to a truce, from the tone of his voice, it was as if he was beaten by Qin Xiaobai and forced to sign an alliance under the city.
"Make no mistake, it's clear that you asked me for a truce......
Han Xin's face was full of black lines, and he had the heart to refute it. However, the envoy team sent by Qin Xiaobai had already all hit the streets, not to mention that even if they were still alive, it would be useless, because Qin Xiaobai's envoys had never explicitly said that they would ask for a truce. It only revealed a hint of a truce......
Therefore, Han Xin can be described as a dumb eater this time, and he can't say anything to refute if he is trapped.
"When did King Xiang become so shameless, it can be compared to King Han......"
In an instant, Han Xin felt that he was being overshadowed by Qin Xiaobai, although he really felt on the battlefield, the person who fought against him was still the overlord of Western Chu. But outside the battlefield, he felt like he had fought a battle with Liu Bang......
If Xiang Yu becomes both the bravery of an overlord and the despicability and shamelessness of Liu Bang, then his terrifying level will simply multiply several times.
Of course, this kind of thing can only be said in the heart, and Hei Liu Bang's words can't be said nonsense.
"King Xiang is invincible...... King Xiang is invincible......"
And at this moment, the Chu army was already thunderous with joy, although this was only a truce, but Qin Xiaobai led them to chase Han Xin all over the world, plus the words of the truce were Han Xin's mouth first, and finally listened to the tone of their king and Han Xin's words. In Chu Jun's view, this victory and defeat are obviously obvious.
And what they defeated was the only Han Xin who had defeated King Xiang personally commanding the army, so the meaning was different, Han Xin's battle during the day could be said to have broken the myth of King Xiang's invincibility.
And now, the Chu army has just lost 100,000 soldiers during the day, and the overlord has taken them back to the field at night, and they will get up wherever they fall, which makes the morale of the Chu army boost again.
Let them once again strengthen their belief in the invincible myth of the overlord in their hearts, even if the overlord occasionally misses once. It's just careless, as long as the overlord is serious, no one will still be the opponent of the overlord.
Subsequently, after the armistice between the Chu and Qi armies, Ji Bu, Zhong Liwu, Huan Chu, and Xiao Gongjiao. The four armies returned one after another, and each of them was the same as the main force of the Chu army, with almost no losses.
The main force of the Chu army did not have major casualties, because Qin Xiaobai was there, with him, the overlord, as the spear blade, and the strongest tenth-level special forces, the eight thousand Jiangdong disciples as the front spearhead. The follow-up troops only need to follow up to pick up the leaks and expand the results.
And the reason why these four-way armies didn't have any losses was that Han Xin didn't have time to take care of them, and second, they didn't want to break through at all, and rushed to Cao Shen and Xiahou Ying's defense line, they just took advantage of the emptiness of the Qi army's camp and plundered everywhere.
Therefore, the four armies were not only unharmed, but also returned with full loads.
This made Han Xin vomit blood, after this battle, Qin Xiaobai's entire army almost had no losses, but after the first battle, the morale did not decrease but increased, plus Qin Xiaobai plundered so much grain and grass, although Han Xin was not defeated, but in fact, he had been miserable by Qin Xiaobai in this battle.
This made Han Xin couldn't help but put his hand on the military command flag several times, but in the end he held back.
Now that he has ceased war with the Chu army, if he breaks out again, his own soldiers will be unprepared, and the morale of the other party has now reached the top, there is no doubt that once the war starts, his side will inevitably be at a disadvantage again.
In addition, thinking that Xiang Yu had been surrounded by the coalition forces of the princes, he would not be able to break through no matter what, even if he plundered this grain and grass from him now, it would only be 100,000 Chu troops to eat for a few days, and then he only needed to wait for him to run out of ammunition, so he could naturally be easily defeated, so in the end, Han Xin still compromised and let the Chu army retreat.
"King Qi, why did you stop fighting with Xiang Yu?"
At this time, Cao Shen and Xiahou Ying rushed over with their troops, and the battle was halfway through, why did they suddenly stop fighting, and Han Xin and Xiang Yu did not report the truce to the King of Han, isn't this a private truce, and there is still the King of Han in his eyes.
Although the two did not say anything about the private truce, their tone already had a questioning meaning.
At this time, Han Xin was ruthlessly pitted by Qin Xiaobai once, and he was depressed in his heart, and when he heard the two of them questioning like this, he couldn't help but feel a little angry.
Cao Shen and Xiahou Yingming were the talents sent by Liu Bang to assist Han Xin, but in fact, the two were sent by Liu Bang to contain and monitor him Han Xin, which Han Xin knew better than anyone else, seeing that these two questioned him so much, he couldn't help but ask:
"When the princes and kings saw that I was attacked, they all stood still, and did not send a single soldier to rescue, but I was the only one who supported me, and with the courage of the overlord, how could there be a reason not to break through?"
Although Han Xin didn't say anything about Liu Bang on the surface, in fact, in addition to him Han Xin, Liu Bang had the most troops among the princes and kings, and Liu Bang didn't send troops to rescue, how could other princes and kings send troops.
When Cao Shen and Xiahou Ying heard Han Xin's words, they were immediately speechless.
They naturally knew in their hearts why Liu Bang didn't send troops, one was because Han Xin was the strongest prince and king, and he was the strongest in terms of strength and commander's ability, and if Xiang Yu beat him, there was no need to worry too much.
Second, Liu Bang was scared by Xiang Yu, lest Xiang Yu was planning to attack the West and beat Han Xin on the surface, but in fact he was waiting to kill him.
Thinking about it, even if Xiang Yu can't find him Liu Bang, it's okay to find Yingbu, Peng Yue, or the weaker other princes and miscellaneous armies, but he went to find the strongest Han Xin, saying that it was not a plan to attack the east and the west, which made people unbelievable.
Three, Han Xin's army is the strongest among the princes and kings, once he commands and destroys Xiang Yu, then his credit is also the greatest, and when the time comes, Liu Bang will be called how to deal with himself, so Liu Bang does not send troops, it is also possible to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, so that Xiang Yu can consume Han Xin's meaning in it.
Of course, these words, especially the third one, could not be said on the surface, so Cao Shen and Xiahou Ying had no choice but to change the topic and asked Han Xin: "Then King Qi, what should we do next, do we really want to stop fighting with the overlord for three days?" ”
Han Xin, the strongest of the princes' coalition army, once he and the Chu army cease, then the next target of the Chu army must be the Han army, then the Han king is in danger, so the rest can not be said, but this must be asked clearly.
Although Han Xin has a low political consciousness, he also knows that it is inconvenient to entangle more on this issue, so he also followed the topic of Cao Shen and Xiahou Ying: "Next, we can continue to defend the camp, because now it is not that we will cease war with the overlord, but whether the overlord will cease war with us." ”
"Will King Xiang attack the Qi army camp again?" Cao Shen and Xiahou Ying couldn't help but ask when they heard this.
"Yes, Xiang Yu has always been a gambler, the last battle of the Battle of Julu is gambling, the thousand-mile attack of the Battle of Pengcheng is gambling, and he is still gambling,"
"Besides, Xiang Yu can't raid anyone, because whoever he raids, the princes will definitely send troops to rescue, so as not to be really surrounded by Xiang Yu, but if Xiang Yu raids me, the princes will definitely not send troops, and today is to verify this, so next time Xiang Yu will raid my Qi army."
"And in terms of time, it's either tonight or tomorrow's dawn, because it is impossible for the high morale of the Chu army to maintain for more than a day, so you two only need to guard against the camp."
After Han Xin explained, he immediately gave an order to Cao Shen and Xiahou Ying.
"No." Cao Shen and Xiahou Ying immediately received the order.
The Chu army camp.
After returning triumphantly, Qin Xiaobai returned to the Chu army camp and found that the bag in the king's tent was indeed missing, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but sketch a slight smile.
It seems that Xiang Bo did not live up to his expectations, and indeed sent the bag to Liu Bang.
This tip must be one of the important factors why Liu Bang did not send troops tonight, Liu Bang did not send troops, who would be so selfless and selfless to send troops.
Qin Xiaobai, who had expected it for a long time, dared to take away eighty percent of the troops and all the senior generals to fight Han Xin to the death.
Now that the bag has reached Liu Bang's hands, as long as the news of his truce with Han Xin reaches Liu Bang, Fan Zeng's plan will definitely take effect at that time, and that is when he breaks through. (To be continued.) )
