Chapter 43: Extinguishing Qi
It's not true, tell the widow it's not true, you're deceiving the widow! Xiang Yu was furious in the Chu camp, and things had already fallen to the ground.
Xiang Wang, Xiang Wang... The generals fell to their knees and wept silently.
Long Ji's death was too big a blow to Xiang Yu.
Long Ji is not only Xiang Yu's first fierce general, but also his good brother who has played since he was a child, Xiang Yu will really find it difficult to accept this fact for a while!
The widow wants to see the man alive, and the corpse to die, you go to the widow to find it, and if you can't find it, you don't have to come back! Xiang Yu shouted.
Several of the attendants cried and staggered out of the tent.
At this time, I saw Yu Ji walking in gently, and when everyone saw the princess, they wiped their tears and got up to withdraw from the tent. Yu Ji silently picked up the utensils that had fallen on the ground, put them back in place, and gently set them up.
For so many years, she has followed King Xiang, fought in the east and west, got along day and night, King Xiang's every move, one joy and one anger, Yu Ji is very familiar, but she has never seen him so sad and sad. She knew very well that the man she loved was experiencing unparalleled pain at this moment, she could really feel it, she could feel it, she would be even more sad to see him sad, she would be even more miserable to see him suffer, and if she really could, she would even be willing to bear all the pain for him, as long as he was happy. But what can she do, a weak woman? All she can do is to accompany him silently, accompany him forever, soothe him with tenderness and care, spend difficulties with him, and share with him.
Xiang Yu, who was reclining on the couch, closed his eyes slightly, and he remembered his happy childhood, he played with Long Ji, grew up together, and when he grew up, he worked hard together, fought together, experienced life and death together, hardships and hardships, but at this moment, he could never see his brother again, never again.
Is Han Shin so powerful? Xiang Yu seemed to be asking, and it was like talking to himself, revealing endless sadness in his words.
Brother Long Ji, it's all my fault, my fault, Father, it's all the fault of the child, the child didn't listen to you, child, damn it, damn it! Xiang Yu thumped his forehead.
Yu Ji saw her beloved man treating herself like this, her heart was like a knife, and tears suddenly rained down, she hugged Xiang Yu tightly, grabbed his hand, and cried: King Xiang, King Xiang, don't be like this, Ya Father is gone, Brother Long is gone, you, you, and the concubine, the concubine... The concubine will never leave King Xiang half a step in this life! Besides, King Xiang still has thousands of soldiers of the Chu army.
Yu Ji lay in Xiang Yu's arms and sobbed quietly.
Xiang Yu hugged Yu Ji tightly: Yes, yes, yes... Widows... Widows... There is also a concubine, and a concubine. Also, there are thousands of soldiers of the Chu army.
In the tight embrace, Xiang Yu's mood gradually calmed down.
Xiang Yu is not only sad for the loss of a general, the loss of a brother, but also sad for the loss of the elite cavalry of the Chu army, the situation of the Chu army is getting more and more difficult, no one knows, young Xiang Yu, what else do you need to face when you get up tomorrow? For the future, King Chu Bawang has gradually lost his past ambition, he seems to see that the future is getting farther and farther away from him, and he can't grasp it with all his might.
Long and died in the hands of Han Xin, which meant that Han Xin could already kill the most elite troops at that time.
If you insist on making a ranking, if you use Bai Xiaosheng's weapon spectrum ranking to illustrate, then it can be said that after the Battle of Weishui, Han Xin's invincible intelligence has been ranked first, while the Overlord Gun has taken a back seat.
This proves once again that wisdom is the most powerful weapon!
Han Xin had never been defeated before, but there were many people who still looked down on him, the reason was that he had not really defeated the elite troops of the Chu army, and the likes of Wei Bao, Chen Yu, Tian Guang and others were not in the flow in terms of combat effectiveness, so defeating these people did not cause much panic and attention among the soldiers of the Chu army. In the battle of Weishui, he defeated the 200,000 allied troops of Qi and Chu and beheaded the head of the five generals of the Chu army.
Long Ji's bravery is famous all over the world, he can defeat the contemporary heroes Yingbu into a crushing army, and his Lou annoying cavalry gallops on the battlefield and is unbeatable.
Here's a question, isn't Han Xin working in Qi State, how can he go into battle with Long Ji?
Han Xin really didn't leave the Qi country, it was Long He who came to look for him.
Let's start from the beginning, Han Xin was robbed of the elite soldiers under Liu Bang in Xiao Xiuwu, he did not complain about the sky, the second did not complain, and the third did not complain about Liu Bang, still worked hard, self-reliance, and worked with more enthusiasm, he recruited a group of recruits in Zhao Di, practiced day and night, and was always ready to attack the Qi State.
Coincidentally, in the year of the old man's sixtieth year, the heart of meritorious service did not die, and he recommended himself to the country of Qi to lobby the king of Qi to surrender, anyway, the old man in his sixties, running around, working tirelessly, actively running for the Han River, his spirit is indeed admirable.
To do revolution and career, what is needed is enthusiasm.
Don't look at him old, he can really do things.
Qi Wang Tian Guang, Qi Xiang Tian Heng with his unremitting efforts of three inches of incorruptible tongue, agreed to belong to Liu Bang.
Since the two families have released their previous suspicions and coexisted in harmony, Li Shiqi became a distinguished guest and a guest, so King Qi set up a banquet day and night, and entertained his old man with good food and drink. In a state of joy, Qi Guo's defense was almost in a state of disengagement.
Li Shiqi has made a great contribution, eating and drinking spicy food in the country of Qi, and living a comfortable life. The comfortable days made Li Shiqi reluctant to give up, so he stayed longer. The Gaoyang drunkard was greedy for a cup and postponed the date of returning to Liu Bang again and again, and it was this delay that dragged his life away.
Ministers have the power to bargain, but they do not have the power to decide. Although Li Sheng and the King of Qi had a peace treaty verbally, the peace treaty was not stamped with the great seal of the King of Han, so it did not take effect. Before it takes effect, the two families are still enemies, and even if they make some trouble at this time, there is no way.
Of course, Liu Bang would not want to make trouble, he very much hoped that the Qi State would surrender. Han Xin didn't want to make trouble either, so as soon as Han Xin arrived in Qi and heard that Li Shiqi had convinced the King of Qi, he planned to call off the army.
The bad thing is that someone wants to make trouble, and this person is quite resourceful, he is no one else, it is Kui Che, remember him, he appeared once a long time ago, and then disappeared, it is estimated that he is afraid that the appearance fee is too small, and he is in seclusion, he is now out of the mountain, taking refuge in Han Xin, and he is interested in Han Xin's future and ability.
Kuaiche said: Li Sheng has more than 70 cities in Qi with a three-inch tongue, and the general has led troops for several years to get more than 50 cities, is it better for the general to be born and die, is it better than a Confucian student? Besides, Li Sheng knew that the general was fighting Qi, but he still lobbied, isn't this a competition with the general?
But Li Sheng is still in Qi country! Han Xin hesitated.
He doesn't care about the general, and he grabs merit with the general, why should the general care about him! Besides, did the King of Han have an order for the general to stop attacking the Qi State?
In fact, Han Xin still personally defeated the Qi State and made another contribution, Li Sheng did the matter, he couldn't find a suitable reason to fire, and Kuaiche found a reason for him, even if someone asked him in the future, he could refute it.
As the cliché of basketball goes: this time it's the time difference.
Take advantage of the time difference between the verbal agreement and the big seal, and as soon as the fight starts, the verbal agreement will immediately turn into nonsense.
Everything went according to plan.
The whole Qi country was immersed in the dream of peace, so it was almost defenseless, and Han Xin forced the capital of Qi to Linqi with a devastating and decaying approach.
Seeing Han Xin leading his troops to attack, Tian Hengtian was furious and suddenly felt deceived.
Okay, you old man, use bitter meat to meet the inside and outside. Come on, throw him into boiling water for me! King Qi was furious.
The drunk and messy Li Shiqi is really indisputable, and he can't tell if he jumps into the Yellow River.
Li Shiqi gave his life inexplicably, and this bitter meat plan was too bitter and became a cooked meat plan.
Soon, the city of Linqi was broken, Tian Guang fled to Gaomi, Tian Heng fled to Boyang, and the king of Qi was helpless and sent someone to Xiang Yu for help.
Xiang Yu attaches great importance to it, and he is very happy in his heart, he now wants food, soldiers, and allies. In order to show his attitude, and in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, Xiang Yu sent the first general under his account, Long He, to lead 200,000 horses to rescue.
Don't be afraid, it's just a claim, there are no 200,000.
The dragon marched towards the country of Qi and embarked on the road of no return.
The wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man is gone and never returns.
Long He was very unhappy when he set out to fight against Han Xin, because he looked down on Han Xin very much: King Xiang is really, isn't he just a person who asks for food? The small character who won a few battles by luck actually made Ben hurt his muscles and bones in the future! I'm afraid of tarnishing my reputation by dealing with this kind of person.
Dragons are not blindly confident. The people in this world who can stop the cavalry of the Chu army, he has not encountered it before, and he thinks that he will not encounter it in the future, but in fact, he will encounter it soon.
Although near Xingyang, Han Xin had a record of fighting with the Chu army, but it was Guan Ying who went directly to the battlefield, and he only fought as the vanguard of the cavalry of the Chu army.
He did not fight the strongest and most elite troops of the Chu army. Now there's a chance, and the toughest and most elite force is coming at him. The opportunity is fleeting, and if you seize it, you will leave a name for eternity, and if you can't catch it, you will be crushed.
Come on, the soldiers will block, and the water will be flooded in the future! Han Xin is also very confident, in his eyes, there is no battle that cannot be won.
Come on, Long Ji, I'll take you to see how fast my Han Shin's long sword is! Han Shin is already confident.
In November of the fourth year of Gaozu of the Han Dynasty (203 BC), Long and Han Xin led their troops to fight on both sides of Weishui.
Han Xin sneered and glanced at Chu Jun opposite, his eyes revealing infinite weirdness. Long Ji also looked at the Han army opposite with a sneer, and his eyes revealed infinite contempt.
Long Ji's idea is very simple, directly attack the position of the Han army, and manage and protect the work of one afternoon.
Long Ji's idea is right, it can indeed be done in one afternoon, but the person who finishes it is himself.
Long Ji's idea is simple, but Han Shin's idea is not simple. The Weishui River in front of him made Han Xin fall into deep thought. He loves water, and several of his masterpieces in his life are related to water, and looking at this rushing river, he will have countless inspirations. It is often said that water is the source of life, and Han Shin would say that water is also a source of inspiration.
He is already in the chest, but the bravery of Long Ji and the strength of the cavalry of the Chu army, he knows very well that the opponent's combat effectiveness is far from being comparable to the previous Zhao army. If the TNT equivalent of the Zhao army was 1 before, then the equivalent of this Chu army must be multiplied by at least 100.
To win such a powerful enemy, it is impossible to win a frontal assault, position to position, fortress to fortress. Han Xin almost never plays cards according to common sense, and his method to deal with Long And: hit the snake and hit the seven inches, and capture the thief first to capture the king.
The seven inches of the Chu army are dragons. He is very loved by the soldiers, is a banner in the army, a benchmark, he has a strong cohesion and appeal, and the stronger the general, the easier it is for the soldiers to rely on him. That is, once he falls, there is a high probability that this formidable army will fall apart.
Don't you like to lead by example? Then I'll make you a lonely hero! Han Xin smiled secretly.
At night, Han Xin ordered his subordinates to prepare tens of thousands of sandbags and carry them to the upper reaches of Weishui, blocking the river and blocking the water flow.
The two armies of Chu and Han are fighting!
In order to lure Long He to take the lead in the charge, Han Xin led his troops to cross Weishui, attacked the Chu army, fought for a while and pretended to be invincible, and retreated.
Can't the dragon see that this is a trick to lure the enemy? Can't Long see that Han Xin is feintting? We laymen can see it, how can he, a battle-hardened general, not see it? It doesn't seem to make sense! In fact, this is the case, we are watching from the side, of course we know that this is a trick to lure the enemy, on the battlefield, Han Xin wants to lure the enemy, he has to perform vividly, so that the opponent can not see the traces, and he will not tell others that this is luring the enemy. Dragons are not stupid than us. And the key is that even if Long Ji sees it, he will still rush over, he doesn't take Han Xin in his eyes at all, even if he is in the middle of the scheme, he doesn't think Han Xin can do anything with him?
This is the conceit after countless victories!
It was this conceit that eventually killed him.
As soon as Long He crossed the river, Han Xin ordered people to remove the sandbags upstream, and the accumulated water rushed down, and most of the Chu army had not had time to cross the river, and Long He and a few others were divided by Han Xin.
Han Xin ordered that the dragon must be taken down. So, under an order, the Han army surrounded the dragon and ten layers inside and out, let the dragon and no matter how brave it was, two fists were invincible to four hands, and finally outnumbered and died on the battlefield.
A generation of fierce dragons also fell at the feet of Han Xin! Han Shin is really terrible.
When the Chu soldiers saw that the main general was killed in battle, they quickly fell apart and scattered.
Han Xin took advantage of the victory to capture Qi and kill the king of Qi, Tian Heng defected to Peng Yue, and the Tian Qi state finally perished.
Han Xin finally swept away the periphery, and in his heart, only the last stone was left - Xiang Yu, and he wanted to let the overlord gun rust in the arsenal forever.
The two famous players through the ages finally waited for the opportunity to compete on the same stage.
Defeating him, isn't it Han Shin's dream?
