readx;?? The first to hold out on the battlefield was the troops under Lu Xuan's command. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info (шщш.щ novel network debut)

After all, the army under Lu Wan has been fighting for the longest time, and it is not a very strange thing to completely collapse at such a time.

Tu Sui, who confronted Lu Juan, was naturally able to see clearly the fact that the officers and soldiers of Liu Bang under Lu Juan's command had no ability to fight at all, and he did not hesitate anything, but ordered the follow-up 10,000 troops to act as the vanguard of the counterattack on Lu Juan's position.

The officers and soldiers who had fought with the attacking forces of the Lu Xuan Army were either temporarily resting, or they were collecting the corpses and treating the wounded.

Nearly 14,000 people fell on the road to attack Tu Sui's army, and almost the entire Qin army was in front of the corpses or seriously wounded officers and soldiers of Lu Juan.

To be honest, Tu Sui also admired Lu Xuan's perseverance, after all, if their Qin army was able to persist in such a strong attack for such a long time in this situation, it would not be an easy thing to do.

It can be said that under Tu Sui's heart, he has to think that the commander of Liu Bang's army on the other side does have something he admires.

However, that's all.

In the next battle, Tu Sui did not intend to show mercy to his subordinates, he knew very well that he could not let Lu Juan meet Liu Bang's main force like this. Once Lu Juan did this, even if they let these Qin troops defeat Liu Bang's army separately, and then besiege Liu Bang's remaining troops, they would have to spend more effort and pay more casualties.

This time, he clearly understood that some new standard equipment can indeed play a greater role on the battlefield. In particular, the heavy infantry of the Qin army wearing a combination of plate armor can effectively resist the damage of some old weapons, and even make the opponent's weapons unable to penetrate the area hit.

This kind of plate armor is a new type of armor modified by Zhang Jiashi according to the combined armor of later generations.

The defense area of the plate armor is mainly near the chest of the more important points, while the armor defense area of the armor is mainly the abdomen.

This kind of equipment can, to a large extent, allow more officers and soldiers to avoid being directly hit by the enemy on the Achilles heel, thereby improving the survivability of heavy infantry units.

However, the weight of this armor is much heavier than Zhang Jiashi's current mainstream iron armor, and in order to select this more demanding Qin officer and soldier again, Zhang Jiashi even had to select it again in the army.

It can be said that this kind of hoplite has become one of the best-equipped units of the Great Qin Empire.

Of course, the cost and construction time of this equipment are higher and longer than other iron armor equipment under Zhang Jiashi's command.

On average, the forging time of a set of plate armor is 30% longer than that of iron armor. This is also the reason why Zhang Jiashi is unable to make more plate armor in a short period of time.

As for the cost, the main reason is that although some skilled craftsmen have carved and polished for a long time, and even opened the plate holes, because according to the many tests of these craftsmen, even if the infusion mold with improved materials is used, the corresponding process cannot be done directly, if the inherent design of these molds is destroyed, some of the opening positions of this mold have to be opened by human hands, which increases the time requirement for forging.

This is also a problem caused by a process technology that Zhang Jiashi does not have a good way to improve.

After all, compared with the iron armor forging template that is relatively evenly heated, the wear rate of this plate armor component is very high, and many times after forging three or four times, it will cause some design positions to break due to the influence of the heated area.

It can be said that if you convert the long processing time of this process, Zhang Jiashi will have to pay more money and forging time for this new type of plate armor.

However, this kind of payment is indeed a fair thing for Tu Sui and other Qin officers and soldiers who fought on the battlefield.

Although this kind of equipment could not directly lay the foundation for the second victory of the officers and men under Zhang Jiashi's command, the emergence of this kind of equipment, as well as the more elite and concentrated heavy infantry units, played a very important role in many battlefields.

As for why Zhang Jiashi didn't plan to forge a full set of plate armor, it was because this kind of thing was really not ordinarily heavy, and he didn't want the officers and soldiers under his command to be directly dragged down by this cumbersome thing on his body.

......

The counterattack launched by Tu Sui's army against Lu Xuan soon evolved into a pursuit after another group of Lu Juan's troops were defeated.

The physical exertion is very high and the weakness caused by the long-term poor diet has become the factor that Liu Bang's officers and soldiers are simply unable to fight back on the battlefield in this area, and it is even difficult to escape.

In this case, many of the troops under Lu Juan's command became prisoners of the Qin army.

And after Lu Xuan saw that the Qin officers and soldiers gradually broke through the several groups of troops he sent to resist, he couldn't help but sigh helplessly in his heart:

"Liu Ji, Liu Ji, I, Lu Xuan, as your brother, don't regret that there will be such a result today, but have you really tried to treat me sincerely?"

When Lu Juan said this, the officers and soldiers around him were silent.

Because Lu Juan is really good to them, and Liu Bang has not changed Lu Juan on the surface after the Battle of Jiaxian, but they can all feel the melancholy in Lu Juan's heart.

Because Liu Bang has a gradually suppressed attitude towards Lu Juan. Especially in terms of military power, before the Qin army attacked, Lu Juan did not have the opportunity to lead the army again, let alone be sent to the local government to deal with government affairs, but was placed under house arrest by Liu Bang in disguise.

Of course, Lu Juan was finally named a Suiyang Jun, and was able to eat 2,000 households, which can be regarded as the most heavily rewarded Liu Bang after he was named the king of Jiujiang and got a large territory.

However, in the past two years, Lu Juan has not been able to leave Liu Bang's monitoring for more than three days.

In other words, Liu Bang did not continue to treat Lu Juan as he appeared, but put Lu Juan under house arrest in disguise.

How could they, the guards, not be able to feel the change in this situation?

So in their hearts, they all complained quite much about Lu Juan, the lord.

But after hearing Lu Juan's sad cry, they were related, because Lu Huang had already planned what he should do.

After a period of silence, Lu Juan sighed secretly, and then roared loudly: "Brothers, kill !! with me"

After the roar, Lu Juan took the lead, leading his personal guards, as well as the remaining Liu Bang officers and soldiers who were still willing to fight, and rushed into the dense Qin army.

......

Under the light of the setting sun, Lu Juan gently coughed up a mouthful of blood, he had many serious injuries on his body, and many of the injuries could only make him close his eyes and wait for death......

But he didn't close his eyes like this, holding a sword with a lot of notches in his hand, Lu Xuan, who was used to support his body, looked at the Qin officers and soldiers who surrounded them, and he showed a smile of relief.

At this time, Tu Sui rode his mount and slowly walked towards Lu Xuan.

He looked at Lu Xuan, showed a look of respect, and said, "You are a hero." ”

"To be able to get the praise of Captain Tu, I also die without regrets. ”

Lu Juan didn't let his voice become choppy, but reluctantly finished the last sentence.

After listening to Lu Xuan's words, Tu Sui looked at Lu Xuan, whose head was lowered, and nodded lightly: "It's a pity, this person should also be buried." ”

Tu Sui's words laid the foundation for Lu Xuan's final treatment in this battle.

......

Lu Xuan, who had died in battle, did not expect that because of the appearance of Zhang Jiashi, his life trajectory also underwent major changes.

In the world where Zhang Jiashi was originally located, Lu Juan's ending was that he was forced by Liu Bang to die in a foreign land.

And Ma Qian's evaluation of Lu Juan in this situation of Taishi Company is:

Han Xin and Lu Juan were not a family that had always accumulated virtues and virtues, but they were lucky enough to adapt to the situation at the moment, and succeeded with fraud and violence, just in time for the Han Dynasty to be established, so they were able to divide the territory and make the south king. Internally, they are suspected because of their strong power, and externally they rely on foreigners for assistance. Therefore, he was increasingly alienated by the emperor, fell into danger, had no way out, had nothing to do, and finally had to defect to Donghu, isn't it sad!

Whether Sima Qian's evaluation is unfair or not is no longer important to Zhang Jiashi now, and for Lu Xuan, it is even more insignificant.

Lu Xuan, who died in this place, naturally didn't think of the ending that should have belonged to him:

Lu Juan suspected that Zhang Sheng had colluded with the Xiongnu to rebel, so he wrote to Liu Bang and asked the clan to destroy Zhang Sheng. Zhang Sheng returned from the Xiongnu and explained in detail to Lu Juan the reasons why he did that. Lu Juan woke up, so he falsely claimed to Liu Bang that he was a rebel by others, exonerating Zhang Sheng's family, so that Zhang Sheng could be an informant between him and the Xiongnu with peace of mind.

Lu Juan also sent Fan Qi as an envoy to Chen, persuading him to flee (note: probably transferred to guerrilla warfare) and "not to fight with Yan". But this matter was told to Liu Bang by Chen's general. Liu Bang sent an envoy to summon Lu Juan, but Lu Juan, who said that he was ill. Liu Bang also sent the Marquis of Biyang to interrogate him, and Zhao Yao, the imperial historian, summoned Lu Juan and took the opportunity to investigate his subordinates. Lu Wan became more and more frightened and closed the door. He said to his favored subordinates: "Now it is not the surname Liu who is the king, only me and Wu Rui, the king of Changsha." Last spring, the imperial court killed Han Xin, the Marquis of Huaiyin, and killed Peng Yue in the summer, all of which came from the strategy of Empress Lu. Now the emperor is sick, and all political affairs are decided by Empress Lu. Empress Lu specifically wanted to find an excuse to kill the kings and heroes with different surnames. So he said that he was sick. His men fled and hid. But this passage was finally leaked to the ears of Biyang Hou. After the Marquis of Biyang came back, he made a detailed report to Liu Bang. Liu Bang was even more angry.

Liu Bang heard the news that Zhang Sheng was a Yan envoy in the Xiongnu, so he decided: "Lu Juan really rebelled." ”

In March 195 BC (the twelfth year of Gaozu of the Han Dynasty), Liu Bang took Fan Hao as his general and led his army to attack Yan. [24] [25] Later, it was replaced by Zhou Bo.

When Lu Juan heard that Liu Bang was ill, he took thousands of his family members, palace people, cronies, etc., and waited under the Great Wall, hoping that after Liu Bang recovered from his illness, he would personally enter Chang'an to apologize. However, Liu Bang died in April, and Lu Juan led everyone to flee to the Xiongnu. He died in Donghu in 194 BC at the age of sixty-three.

It can be said that such an ending, for Lu Juan, it is impossible to determine who is better and who is inferior than the situation he is going through now, but if Lu Juan knew his original result, he might be grateful to Zhang Jiashi......

...................................................... Dividing Line................................................

Lu Juan's army was defeated and killed, and tens of thousands of troops under his command were defeated, but in fact, it did not have much impact on the battle situation that was gradually controlled by the Qin army.

Because the news of Lu Xuan's defeat and death reached Liu Bang's ears, more than 10,000 knights under the command of Li Shang and Li Scab were launching harassing attacks on Liu Bang's army from the south of Liu Bang's military camp.

Liu Bang, who was caught off guard by this tactic, after mobilizing a large number of troops that had not yet been mobilized to join the battle, he was faced with not only the news that he could not bear, but also the news that Zhou Bo's troops were defeated and fled back to the camp.

......

Opposite Zhou Bo was one of the youngest generals of the Great Qin Empire under Zhang Jiashi, that is, Han Xin, who was also known as the "Soldier Immortal" in this chaotic era at the end of the Qin Dynasty.

In fact, as the general relied on by Zhang Jiashi, Sun Po also preferred the main force arranged on the battlefield by Han Xin under the command of Zhang Jiashi.

However, Han Xin did not accept this appointment, and continued to command his left flank troops according to the original plan, against Zhou Bo, who was commanding on the opposite side.

According to the ability level of both sides, Han Xin, who has already gone to another path of development, does not put much pressure on Zhou Bo.

Of course, Zhou Bo was also a famous general of the Han army in the early Han Dynasty, and he was also one of the handsome talents who could command the Han army.

But the current Zhou Bo does not have the same glory as he used to have in the early days of the Han Dynasty.

The current Zhou Bo, although he is also a member of Liu Bang's command, can be regarded as a famous general who can fight well, but between him and Han Xin, there is a certain gap between what he has experienced and the level of command, coupled with the increase and decrease in military strength between the two sides due to various reasons, Zhou Bojun has become the second Liu Bangjun to be defeated on the battlefield.

Zhou Bo did not make a last fight on the battlefield like Lu Qian to maintain his beliefs, and did not surrender to the Qin army like a large number of former colleagues who surrendered, but led a part of the remnants of the army to defeat and retreat to the camp of Liu Bang's army.

However, after entering the camp, Zhou Bo did not receive Liu Bang's questioning to him, but ordered him to command the troops to resist the attack of the Qin knight troops from the rear of the camp.

After knowing Liu Bang's arrangement, Zhou Bo knew very well that they had actually gone over, and what made him even more helpless was that Lu Juan had actually died on the battlefield.

That is to say, they have been besieged in Hexian County.

He did not follow Liu Bang's order to command the troops in the rear camp to resist the harassing attacks of Li Shang and Li Scabies, but directly found Liu Bang, and in Liu Bang's stunned, Liu Bang was forcibly escorted to the mount, and he quickly commanded the light charioters and knights in the camp who could still fight, intending to escort Liu Bang to break through and defect to Xiang Yu.

As one of Liu Bang's subordinates and Liu Bang's most trusted people, Liu Bang's mind is naturally unable to hide from Zhou Bo or even Lu Juan.

He had already been able to guess from Liu Bang's actions that Liu Bang was planning to defect to Xiang Yu in this situation.

He did this because he didn't want to die in this place where he didn't want to die.

......

More than 100 chariots and more than 1,000 knights, escorting Liu Bang and the civil and military ministers who could be gathered under Liu Bang's command, quickly left the camp to the east.

And Li Shang and Li Scabies naturally saw such a situation.

After they had temporarily regrouped their troops and stopped their harassing attacks on Liu Bangjun, they discussed what they should do next.

That is, they don't think that Liu Bang's departure will be a good thing, and as for this camp, it is not as important as Liu Bang's army and Liu Bang who broke through.

As a result, Li Shang and Li Scab made a decision that was both right and wrong.

It is said that this decision is correct because the large-scale pursuit of Li Shang and Li Scab has caused the strength of Liu Bang's army that broke through to suffer a heavy blow again, and it can even be said that Zhou Bo had to separate his troops so that Liu Bang could escape from this place safely.

And this decision was wrong because of the unauthorized actions of Li Shang and Li Scabies, which made the remnants of Liu Bang's army an important hidden danger for Zhang Jiashi to exterminate the remnants of Liu Bang's forces.

Because if it weren't for Li Shang and Li Zhan to send all the troops to pursue Liu Bang, I am afraid that the remaining more than 30,000 officers and soldiers in the camp would not have been able to leave this place at all, let alone be taken over by some Chu nobles who were unwilling to be ruled by Zhang Jiashi, and the siege battles in many areas would have fallen into a stalemate.

But after Zhang Jiashi learned about this, he did not severely punish Li Shang and the Li Scabies brothers, but only let the two of them be fined and confiscated for half a year.

For Zhang Jiashi, the arrangement of Li Shang and Li Scabies certainly destroyed the original battle plan, but in any case, the two also made considerable contributions in the Second Eastern Crusade, so Zhang Jiashi could not bear to punish Li Shang and Li Scabies who had more merit than the crime.

......

However, whether it was Li Shang and Li Scabies in pursuit, or Tu Sui and Han Xin, who were gradually cleaning up the battlefield, what they didn't expect was that the people who could hold out the longest were not Lu Juan and Zhou Bo, but the original King Han who was assisted by Zhang Liang and continued to command the troops of the front army, and the current general under Liu Bang, Han Cheng......

In fact, Han Cheng alone was indeed unable to resist the army under Su Teng's command, but what no one knew was that Zhang Liang's scheduling in this battle had been arranged a lot, and it was indeed able to make Han Cheng, who was not good at commanding battles, and Liu Bangjun, who was weak, exert very strong combat effectiveness......
