The consequences of Pengcheng's defeat continued.

After Wei Bao, Qi and Zhao also turned their backs on Han and Chu one after another.

Although the Chu-Han War was in a stalemate stage, it does not mean that the two sides were evenly matched. For the Han army, holding each other is a way to save face, and hard carrying is the most appropriate adjective.

Liu Bang was really bitter, enduring wave after wave of attacks from the elite of the Chu army in Xingyang.

What's even more bitter is that he can't fool those princes, what kind of benevolent and righteous teachers, what Chu army is brutal, what treachery, all of them are useless, how many years have those people been mixed, and they can see the human feelings thoroughly, they recognize not human feelings, but strength.

In terms of strength, the Han army was far inferior to the Chu army.

Liu Bang knows very well in his heart that for Chen Yu, there is no need to persuade him, he is an old qualification for rebellion, he was willing to kill Zhang Er as a condition to help the war, but now he really wants to be revealed, Zhang Er is not dead, Chen Yu is already angry in his heart, how can he be persuaded to move? Liu Bang also understands that Zhang Er's matter is just an excuse, and the real reason is that Chu is strong and weak now.

Forget it, everyone has their own choice, he doesn't want to, so the widow has no choice but to use force, this is okay, Xingyang will not have any big breakthrough anyway, take this opportunity to kill all these disobedient people, and solve Xingyang's urgent need. Liu Bang pondered Zhang Liang's suggestion carefully, and finally made up his mind.

At this time, Han Xin sent someone to send a copy of the book from Pingyang, Wei State.

Liu Bang hurriedly opened it and looked at it, and was shocked: Han Xin, sure enough, is a national warrior, and he actually coincided with Mr. Zhang's thoughts.

Not only that, Han Xin also added slightly, in which he asked for more troops, the purpose of which was to "raise Yan in the north, Zhao in the east, and attack Qi in the east, and cut off the grain road of Chu!" ”

Wonderful, wonderful. Liu Bang was overjoyed and ordered to meet Han Xin's request for additional troops.

Not only Han Xin's strategic concept is wonderful, but also the generals that Liu Bang sent to Han Xin to help in the war are also wonderful, this general is none other than Chen Yu's friend Zhang Er.

The grievances and grievances between Zhang Er and Chen Yu, the story of their acquaintance, friendship and even hatred, has long been hyped by the roadside society, and has always been the focus of the alley.

It's a brilliant move.

Binh Duong Han Army Station.

Since Han Xin destroyed Wei, he was in a daze at the map in front of him whenever he had time.

It is naturally easy to take down the Dai Kingdom, and the key is the Zhao State.

The state of Zhao was in the southern part of present-day Hebei Province, and the capital was in Xiangguo, which is today's Xingtai, Hebei. Pingyang (Linfen, Shanxi) and Xiangguo (Xingtai, Hebei) are separated by the Taihang Mountains that run through the north and south.

There are eight major passes in Taihang Mountain, among which there is a pass called "Jingcheng Road", the west entrance is Niangzi Pass, and the east entrance is called Tumen Pass, also called Jingcheng Pass. The Jingcheng Road is long and rugged, and it is very dangerous for the army to pass through it.

According to the words of Zhao General Li Zuoche, it is "the way of Jinjing, the car cannot be squared, and the ride cannot be in a column" "Historical Records".

While Han Xin was meditating, Zhang Er led 30,000 horses to Pingyang day and night.

Han Shin was overjoyed.

Therefore, Han Xin immediately began to deploy the representative army to clear the west of Taihang Mountain.

Sure enough, the Han army solved the Dai Kingdom without much effort, and in September 205 BC, Han Xin broke the Dynasty and captured the Dynasty Xiangxia said.

After Chen Yu learned that Daidi had been lost, he quickly gathered troops at Jingchengkou, with a force of 200,000.

Note that this is just a claim, and the actual strength of the army can be at least 75% off.

Han Xinli understands that the significance of breaking Zhao is very important, and it has a bearing on the overall situation.

It's not an easy battle to fight.

At this moment, Liu Bang sent a messenger, and when he saw the letter, Han Xin almost collapsed.

In the letter, Cao Shenhuo was ordered to speed up the elite troops to go south to reinforce the Xingyang line.

Liu Bang personally gave the order, and Han Xin naturally did not dare to disobey it.

It's just that Cao Shen left, and almost all the elite of the Han army under Han Xin's hands was withdrawn.

For this order, Han Xin still understands very well, he is bitter, but Liu Bang is even more bitter, Xingyang is facing the strongest Chu army in the world, and the pressure can be imagined.

What to do, there are not enough troops? It is impossible to wait for Xingyang to send troops to reinforce it, Po Zhao must fight quickly, and when the reinforcements come, the daylilies are cold.

As we said earlier, Han Xin is a person who belongs to the category of creative thinking, and in the military field, his ability to innovate is unparalleled.

If there are no troops, the creation of troops will also be fought.

So, he decided to create troops.

Of course, due to the fact that cloning technology has not yet been invented, direct adhesive copying cannot be created.

His method was to recruit troops on an ad hoc basis.

No kidding, General Han, isn't this battle going to be a quick one, you also look down on the Zhao army, which is known as 200,000 people, although the Zhao army also has new soldiers, but the veteran soldiers are still the majority, and you are deep into the enemy's territory, passing through the valley, it is easy to be attacked on both sides, can the recruits you recruit take on such a big task?

Ben Shuai is also very helpless, is there any better way? Han Xin waved his hand helplessly.

The more in-depth the analysis of the situation of the two armies, the more maddening it becomes.

Can you have a chance of winning this kind of battle?

It should be said that the odds of winning are slim.

It can only be said that Han Xin is bold enough and foreign enough.

Although there were many difficulties, it was impossible to make Han Xin retreat or stagnate, and he remembered when Huaiyin Xiao'er humiliated himself, and on that day, he silently swore to the heavens that he must establish immortal merits in this life and this life, so that all those who once laughed at him and looked down on him would regret it.

Either way, this one is a bet on him.

Han Xin firmly led a miscellaneous army of 30,000 to embark on the journey of the Eastern Crusade.

The magic of Zhang Er is now fully revealed.

After the chaos at the end of Qin, Zhang Er has been mixing in Zhao Guo, and now although he is mixed with Liu Bang, his connections are still there, and there is no shortage of his eyeliner in Zhao Jun. Therefore, Zhao Jun's every move could not escape his eyes.

Zhang Er's informant brought Han Xin great news and reassured Han Xin, who ordered the Han army to march to a place thirty miles away from Jingcheng Road.

According to the informant's report, Chen Yu's general, Guangwujun Li Zuoche, suggested that while Han Xin was tired from afar, he volunteered to lead 30,000 horses to cut off the Han army's grain route. And Chen Yu rejected Li Zuoche's correct suggestion.

This was originally a very effective strategy, could it be that Chen Yu would not be clear?

No, he knew it was a good idea.

Chen Yu has drunk ink, and a commoner can be crowned a king and worship the prime minister, and it is impossible to have some ability! Although the art of war and scheming cannot be said to be proficient, there are not a few big and small battles he has experienced, the reason for his refusal is very simple, he looks down on Han Xin too much, no matter what kind of ghost Han Xin does, Chen Yu firmly believes that he will definitely win, so he doesn't need to spend so much brains with his juniors. In his eyes, Han Xin is a clown who jumps off the beam. Moreover, winning this battle will only add one more to one's own record book: on a certain day, in a certain year, month, and day, the Han army will destroy 30,000 enemies, and that's it, there is no special significance.

So what if you lose?

How can it be defeated? Chen Yu had already carefully calculated an account in his heart.

Han Xin really dared to come, and all Chen Yu wanted to gain from this battle was the reputation of a benevolent and righteous teacher.

So his preparation is very simple, just send troops to wait for the battle, and don't have to work for anything else, wait for the Han army to attack, wait for work, and annihilate in one fell swoop.

But this battle, for Han Xin, has a very different meaning.

If he can win, the first thing is to show solidarity with the frontal battlefield; the second is to win more with less, defeat celebrities, and become famous from then on; Third, train new recruits and train descendants.

Therefore, this battle must be won.

But no matter how you look at it, the Han army has no chance of winning, and many of these recruits have never been on the battlefield, where do they get their combat effectiveness?

If you can't fight, you can only outwit.

This is the only way.

Han Xin stared at the topographic map in front of him and fell into deep thought.

The art of war is cloudy: all those who fight, with the right fit, with the odd victory. Therefore, those who are good and surprising are as infinite as heaven and earth, and inexhaustible as rivers.

There are two rivers outside the mouth of the well, and these two rivers, one flowing east-west and the other north-south, seem to be almost at right angles, and between the right angles, there is a narrow strip of peninsula-type land.

The two rivers intersect. Han Xin muttered to himself, and suddenly he seemed to think of something.

He hurriedly sorted out his thoughts from beginning to end.

I saw Han Xin's frowning brows slowly become relaxed.

Finally, he burst out laughing.

Wonderful, wonderful, God help me, in this way, our army will win. Brother Chen Yu, wait, I'll prepare a wonderful game for you, the bet is your life!

It was late at night.

Come! Han Xin called.

Be! The guard replied in a loud voice.

It was rumored that Zhang Er, Jin She, Fu Kuan, and Zhang Cang came to discuss the matter.

Be!

After a while, Zhang Er and others came to the handsome tent. The generals looked at Han Xin's expression, looking confused, and listened attentively.

Does the marshal have any good strategies to break the enemy? Zhang Er asked.

Han Xin smiled, his eyes full of confidence.

Jin She's obedient!

The end will be!

Order you to lead 2,000 light cavalry in the middle of the night, holding the red flag, climb the mountain at night to hide, and watch our army and the Zhao army fight at any time, if our army retreats, the Zhao army comes to chase after the empty nest, you will lead the army to quickly rush into the Zhao camp, pull out the banner of the Zhao army, and plant the red flag of our army.

Order!

Fu Kuan, Zhang Cang listens to orders!

The last general ordered the two of you to be the vanguard, and led 10,000 people to pass through the well first. Walk between the two waters, and line up for our rear army to come. Remember, don't act rashly beforehand.

The last will be ordered!

Han Xin said to Zhang Er: King Changshan and Ben Shuai will be the rear army together and take command!

Although the generals received the order, they were skeptical.

Han Xin saw that they were confused, and said: Chen Yu definitely wants to annihilate our army in one fell swoop, if our army enters the Jingchengkou together, the Zhao army will definitely attack, if our army divides its troops through the Jingchengkou, the Zhao army will definitely not attack.

Everything was arranged, and Han Xin ordered the whole army to bury the pot in the middle of the night to make up for the hunger, and wait for the Zhao army to be wiped out tomorrow and then have a full meal.

Although Han Xin's military orders were full of his self-confidence, the soldiers of the Han army were skeptical. Everyone understands that no matter whether the battle of tomorrow is won or lost, a vicious battle cannot be avoided, and many of them have just joined the ranks not long ago, and they will have to face such a desperate battle of great disparity.

Can you go back alive, maybe tomorrow will be your last day in the world! The soldiers of the Han army carefully counted their belongings, looked in the direction of their relatives, and silently felt the most difficult night in the world.

In the middle of the night, the narrow well road was already full of Han army camps, and the wind in the path was whistling.

Han Xin meticulously inspected the barracks as usual, listened to the whispers of the soldiers, and watched the orderly and unsteady march of the forwards, how could Han Xin not be full of emotions, thinking of wandering around when he was young, hungry, sending people under the fence, thinking of the humiliation of Huaiyin City's crotch, the grace of his mother's meal, the obscurity and depression in the Chu army barracks, the great kindness of Prime Minister Xiao Cheng, the kind and pitiful mother who was poor and sick, and the cherries who were gentle, lovely, beautiful and virtuous.

In a war tomorrow, you will either die on the battlefield and leave a skeleton empty, or you will become famous in a war and achieve immortal achievements. I won't be defeated, I won't be defeated, the king of Han has given me such a great favor, how can I fail him, if I am defeated, let the world laugh, I Han Xin might as well die. I have come to this day, and I want to make those who have laughed at me, those who have despised me, those who have insulted me, tremble at the sight of my name. What about 30,000 recruits, I can still turn them into tigers on the battlefield and eagles on the battlefield. Chen Yu, just take a look, see how I have turned your dreams into nothing, and see how I have divided and eaten away your army. For myself, for my mother, for the cherry, for the king of Han, for the world, and for my dreams, I must win. Han Xin secretly swore in his heart.

The Han army on Jingcheng Road was nervously preparing, and Zhao Jun noticed the Han army's abnormal movements, and also strengthened its vigilance under Chen Yu's order.

However, Chen Yu at this moment is not too worried about tomorrow's war, he has no reason to worry, in his career, this is nothing. According to his prediction, if the battle started, the Han army could be annihilated in less than an hour.

I haven't seen any big battles in Chen Yu, little Han Xin, what can I do? The stinky boy who doesn't measure himself, thinks that if he kills a Wei leopard, he will be great, dare to come to Tai Sui Ye to break ground, and grandpa will tell you to go and never return.

The Zhao army battalion only reacted to the movement of the Han army by slightly tightening its vigilance, and everything else was as usual, without a trace of the current atmosphere of the great enemy, let alone a trace of nervous and worried emotions about the imminent war.

The Zhao army camp, which was quiet as usual, only had a soft sigh, like a fallen leaf falling on the soil, very light and helpless.

That person was Li Zuoche.

In the Xingyang Han Palace, there is another person who has trouble sleeping, and he has received the news that Han Xin will attack the Zhao army in the near future.

It's been a few days, the widow is very helpless, take away your elite soldiers, the widow knows that you have a thousand difficulties and dangers, the widow is also bitter, Xingyang can never be lost, if you are defeated, the widow will not escape the situation of no return. Either way, you have to win this battle for the widow! Liu Bang prayed constantly in his heart.

This night is destined to be long!
