Chapter 14: Breaking through the Xiangliang camp

On the day of departure, 10,000 tiger troops gathered at the gate of the Lantian camp, and Gongzi Fusu appeared in front of everyone in armor, which made the eyes of those soldiers who were accustomed to Fusu's elegant style shine. They didn't expect that the armor-clad son Fusu would be so heroic.

"All the soldiers, except for the horses, each of them will go to the stable and lead two horses," Fusu ordered.

"No," Han Xin said. Then he led the people to the stable, got two horses, and then returned to the gate and assembled.

"Soldiers, this time it is my Great Qin Tiger who is the first to show his edge, I want to let that Xiang Yu know that my old Qin people are not easy to mess with, I want him to pay for Jiangdong's blood debts" Fu Su said resolutely.

"Blood debt and blood payment, blood debt and blood payment, blood debt and blood payment" 10,000 Great Qin Tigers shouted out the power of the Great Qin Army.

"I want you to change horses to ride, and the horses will not stop, and this trip will go straight to Qianzhong County."

Fusu led 10,000 tiger troops all the way south, crossed the Han River, crossed the Yangtze River, and went out of the snow-capped mountain pass. It only took ten days to arrive in Qianzhong County.

……

Qianzhong County guarded the government office, and Fusu flipped through the military reports from Wang Li and Baili;

Wang Li's 200,000 troops had arrived in Nanjun, and Wang Li followed Fan Zeng's suggestion to divide his troops into two places and garrison Yingxian with 80,000 horses, completely cutting off the connection between Nanjun and Hengshan and Changsha counties. 120,000 troops garrisoned the Qianjiang River, blocking the way out for Xiang and Liu to enter the west. Fusu was very satisfied with Fan Zeng's arrangement, there was a Yangtze River moat in the south, and the Han River in the north was obstructed, coupled with the two armies in the north and south, Xiang and Liu were completely trapped in Nanjun. Use the Han River and the Yangtze River to block the retreat of Xiang Yu and Liu Ji. This trick is indeed clever, which shows Fan Zeng's cleverness in using troops.

Let's look at the deployment of Bailiyue. Except for the 20,000 horses of the 100,000 army who continued to confront Zhang Han, the rest of the men and horses arrived in Hanoi County and went out of Yangwu to suppress the two counties of Dangjun and Yingchuan and at the same time intimidate Huhai's Dong County. Fusu was extremely satisfied with Wang Li and Bailiyue's way of using troops, and these two people deserved to be the world's famous generals.

"Doctor Wuxi, Bai Xi can smile at Jiuquan," Fusu said to himself, looking at Bailiyue's military report.

"Ganyu, has the military rations from Xianyang arrived?"

"My son, the military rations arrived the day before yesterday, but I don't know why they were packed into 10,000 bags this time, and they were all cooked food." Gan Yu said with some doubts.

"It's okay, I arranged it, I don't know how you bought the kettle I asked you to buy?"

"Son, all the 10,000 kettles are in order."

"There is one more thing, I asked you to send someone to find the secret path to infiltrate Jiangdong, I don't know how you arranged, have you already drawn a map and found a good guide?"

"Prince, the guide has been found, but I really don't know how to draw this map?"

Fusu shook his head helplessly, no longer bothering about the map.

Leaving the Qiancheng Mansion, Fusu went to the Qiancheng Armory under the leadership of Gan Yao, where 10,000 bags of mixed military rations of fried soybeans and barley were neatly stacked, as well as marching kettles made of bamboo tubes.

The reason why fried soybeans and barley are chosen as military rations is because war horses can also eat in an emergency, and fighting in Jiangdong is different from grassland campaigns, and horses may not be able to eat abundant water and grass at any time. The reason for the inclusion of barley in soybeans is because eating too many soybeans will cause a lot of gas in the human body, and barley can relieve the symptoms of gas. The battle of more than 10,000 people exhausting together is not covered, and Fusu doesn't want to spend the next journey in a fart.

Fusu grabbed a handful of military rations and threw them into his mouth, the taste was indeed average, only the original taste of the grain, because it was fried, it had a slight fragrance. Fusu originally planned to make a batch of compressed dry food, but the Qin Dynasty did not have enough animal fat to use as raw materials, so this plan could only be shelved temporarily. Later, after the Xiongnu were exterminated, the animal husbandry of Daqin developed before consideration.

After tasting the military rations, Fusu came to the place where the kettle was stacked, picked up a kettle and studied it, and the workmanship was quite passable. Bamboo kettle, it's okay to make do with it in the short term, but it's definitely not okay to use it for a long time. It will inevitably crack under the wind and sun. Looking at the kettle in front of him, Fusu thought of the leather water bladders used by the Yueshi and the Huns, and he would have to get some when he had the opportunity in the future.

Coming out of the Qiancheng armory, Fusu returned directly to the Tiger Ben Army garrison. Since Wang Li and Baili Yue have set up the stage for singing, how can he, the protagonist, not hurry up and take the stage? Fusu invited all the captains in the Huben Army to the big tent of the Chinese army and made some arrangements:

1. Each person chooses one of the three military horses with the best physical strength, and the rest of the horses are handed over to the defenders of Qianzhong County and sent back to the Lantian camp.

2. Each person went to the armory to receive a kettle and a bag of military rations.

After Fusu arranged these things, he gave the Huben army two days off, and agreed to gather at the barracks on the morning of the third day. Ten days of continuous marching exhausted the Tiger Ben soldiers and horses. It is still necessary to take a proper rest.

Early in the morning of the third day, the army of 10,000 tigers marched out of Qiancheng under the leadership of the guide, sneaked into the Wuling Mountain, and headed towards Jiangdong. Ten days later, Fusu and his entourage left Wuling Mountain, crossed the Yangtze River, and bypassed Jingzhou along the river, thanks to the dense vegetation on both sides of the Yangtze River, so that the 10,000-strong army could be perfectly hidden.

……

In the camp of the Xiang clan in Wuzhong, Xiang Liang was listening to his subordinates report the news sent back by the spies they had planted in Qindi.

"General Yu, according to the report of the spies planted in Qindi, a cavalry passed through Ba County on the 16th, with about 10,000 people, galloping south, not knowing where to go."

"This matter is not worth paying attention to, my Jiangdong is not as good as the north, it is not a place where cavalry gallops, and there are only more than 10,000 people, and they are definitely not coming to my Jiangdong. I guess their trip was intended for South Vietnam. The mountains and rivers in South Vietnam are steep, and they are not suitable for cavalry combat, it seems that I have lost my eyes, and Fusu Xiaoer is nothing more than that. Xiang Liang said with a mocking expression.

A few days later, Fusu and his entourage came out of Moling, traveled at night, and quietly crossed the old county into the territory of Wuzhong. On Fusu's trip to Jiangdong, almost all of the roads taken were remote trails opened up by hunters and medicine farmers. Therefore, there will be accidents such as people and horses falling off the cliff from time to time along the way, poisonous snake bites, etc., and more than ten people have died when they arrive in Wuzhong. At this time, some discontent had also grown in the army.

"Yu Gongzi, Xiang Liang's camp is outside Wucheng City twenty miles away, I have observed that there are about sixty or seventy thousand horses in the camp. Xiang Liang is in the camp tonight to handle official business, and he should not return to Wucheng Mansion. The Tanma who returned from the camp reported to Fusuyu.

Fusu gathered all the lieutenants together and told them the ultimate purpose of the trip.

"Generals, Xiang Yu killed 20,000 wounded soldiers of my Great Qin, and I went south this time to avenge them. Now that the opportunity has come, Xiang Liang's camp is twenty miles away, do you dare to attack Xiang Liang's camp with me and cut off Xiang Liang's head, so as to comfort the fallen soldiers of Nanjun. After Fusu finished speaking, he looked at the captains in front of him and asked.

"Why don't you dare?"

"Dare, we will swear to kill Xiang Liang in this battle"

……

Everyone said that after suppressing it for so long, they finally found an opportunity to vent, and everyone instantly became excited, and the previous resentment against Fusu's trip also dissipated.

"You go back quickly to prepare torches, velvet and other items, and follow me into Xiangliang's camp tonight."

After receiving the order, the lieutenants of "Nuo" went their separate ways to make arrangements.

At the beginning of the hour (3 o'clock in the morning), Fusu and his party quietly moved to a distance of 500 steps from Xiangliang's camp, and followed a rocket into the air. 10,000 torches lit up the night sky in an instant.

"Kill!" The Great Qin Tiger Army rushed into Xiang Liang's camp like a flood, and Xiang Liang's camp instantly fell into chaos. One by one, the flinching velvet flew towards Xiang Liangjun's camp tent, and in an instant, a raging fire broke out everywhere in Xiang Liang's camp. The cries of the soldiers and the shouts of the Tiger Ben Army echoed and intertwined, resounding outside Wucheng City, and I don't know how many people in Wucheng City were frightened.

When Xiang Liang rushed out of the camp under the protection of the soldiers, he was immediately surrounded by more than a dozen Great Qin Tigers, and helped the soda horse to walk to Xiang Liang.

"I wonder if the general can tell me your name, so that I can know who died at the hands of whom, so that I can die clearly." Xiang Liang stared at Fusu and said.

"Great Qin Gongzi Fusu" After Fusu finished speaking, he ignored Xiang Liang and turned around to kill other places. Xiang Liang looked at Fusu in the distance with a look of remorse, closed his eyes helplessly and shook his head.

When Fusu left, several tiger riders rushed over and slashed Xiang Liang, chopped off Xiang Liang's head and wrapped it in cloth.

An hour later, Fusu led the crowd to evacuate the Xiangliang camp. Although he had already broken through Xiang Liang's camp and killed Xiang Liang. But the situation in Koto as a whole has not changed much. Xiang Bo and Xiang Zhuang still have 40,000 or 50,000 troops in their hands, and all the counties in Jiangdong are still in the hands of Xiang.

For Fusu, Jiangdong at this time was even more dangerous than before his attack. Previously, he had been in the dark, and Xiang was in the light. At this time, his whereabouts have been exposed, and he must not be able to hide. The best option is to leave quickly and flee Jiangdong while the gate is not closed.

The road when he infiltrated Jiangdong before can no longer be used, as long as Xiang Bo thinks about it a little, he can guess how Fusu and his party sneaked into Jiangdong, and then ask a few medicine farmers and hunters, you can find the road when they sneaked in, the mountain road is already narrow and difficult to walk, 10,000 horses can't run fast at all, and it won't be long before they will be caught up by the Xiang family, and then will this 10,000 tiger army still have a way to live? At present, it is no longer realistic to go north to Jiujiang County, and the Yangtze River, which lies between Huiji and Jiujiang County, is the biggest obstacle.

After weighing it repeatedly, Fusu decided to make a risky move, continued to go south deep into the hinterland of Jiangdong, and fled back to Qin from the junction of South Vietnam and Jiangdong. Before leaving, Fusu asked people to cut down the big flag in the Xiang camp, and wrote a sentence on the flag dipped in blood.

"This is a return gift for Xiang Yukeng's killing of the Great Qin soldiers, the Great Qin Tiger Benjun did it, and Fu Su personally gave it, don't thank you."
