Fu Qin starts with a plan

Chapter 343 Xiang Yuzhi, Julu Fighting Zhang Han

If you look down from a high altitude now, you will find two huge armies on the ground, one west and one north advancing in two directions.

Going north is Xiang Yu's army, and going west is Liu Bang's army.

Xiang Yu's goal is obvious, that is to rescue the remnant Chu Xiang army in Julu City, and Liu Bang's goal is also obvious, that is the capital city of Xianyang in Hangu Pass.

Although Xiang Yu was very dissatisfied with King Huai of Chu's arrangement, but because he did not have the great contribution of his uncle Xiang Bo, he could only swallow his anger.

It is not far from Anyang to Julu, nor is it close.

After setting off, Xiang Yu ordered to advance at full speed. Facing the 20 Qin army, Xiang Yu led an army of [-] to rescue. It is impossible to say that he is not afraid.

Although Xiang Yu was leading the army, the soldiers still had little confidence in the upcoming battle.

As a result, some deserters appeared during the march.

Faced with this situation, Xiang Yu's solution is very simple, that is to catch them all, cut off their heads, and hang them on the flagpole to frighten people.

A few days later, Xiang Yu, who was in a hurry, crossed the Yellow River mightily, and then went north again.

A day later, Xiang Yu's [-] troops came to Zhangshui, the last obstacle outside Julu City.

As long as you cross the Zhang River, you can reach Julu City.

At this time, the 20 Qin army led by Zhang Han was stationed outside Julu City, and the rebels in Julu City were surrounded by the 20 Qin army.

Xiang Yu, who had just arrived at the south bank of Zhangshui River, was riding on a horse with a Bawang halberd in his hand, looking at Julu City. His black armor reflected the luster of metal, and the bright red cloak behind him flapped in the river wind.

About half a quarter of an hour later, the [-] troops behind him had all assembled at the crossing mouth on the south bank. Without saying a word, Xiang Yu shouted at the messenger Sima beside him: "Cross the river!"

Soon, the messenger Sima conveyed Xiang Yu's order to the generals under Xiang Yu's command, and [-] troops crossed the river one after another.

Xiang Yu's 5000 troops were 5000 led by Longqi, Yingbu, Jibu, Zhonglimei, and Yu Ziqi, and [-] led by Xiang Yu himself.

Although [-] troops rushed to the aid of Julu City, the Qin army outside Julu City did not know that Xiang Yu was among them.

If Zhang Han knew that Xiang Yu was leading the army, he would definitely send troops to stop Xiang Yu from crossing the river when he crossed the river.

However, this time the crossing of the river was extremely smooth, without encountering any resistance, Xiang Yu led an army of [-] troops across the Zhang River smoothly.

According to Xiang Yu's previous urgent marching order, he should have marched towards Julu City immediately, but after Xiang Yu crossed the river, he did not do so.

At this moment, on the banks of the Zhangshui River, the turbulent river water is rolling with billowing waves, beating against the stones on both banks.

The boats used to cross the river are docked on the north bank, rising and falling with the waves.

Xiang Yu, who was riding a horse, glanced at the boats in the river, frowned, and then called out the names of five people: "Longqi, Yuzi Qiyingbu, Jibu, Zhonglimei!"

"To!"

The five of them rode forward with one voice.

Xiang Yu didn't say much, and ordered directly: "I order you now, immediately destroy the boats used to cross the river and the iron pots used for cooking!"

"what?"

Hearing Xiang Yu's order, everyone was taken aback.

Not only the five generals under Xiang Yu's command, but even the soldiers around him were bewildered.

Why smash the ship?Shouldn't you leave a way out for yourself?

In case of defeat, with these ships, maybe one's life can be saved and a comeback can be made!
As if he could see what everyone was thinking, Xiang Yu glanced at them coldly, and said coldly: "This commander knows what you are thinking. If you lose the battle, you can still escape on a boat!"

"But here I, Xiang Yu, have never said of running away. I don't care where you are from, or how you survived before, as long as I, Xiang Yu, can only win, not lose!"

"I can tell you clearly that the reason why the ships and iron pots were smashed was because if you win, you die! In this battle, you must either defeat the Qin army and survive, or be killed by the Qin army!"

"But don't worry, if I lose the battle, I, Xiang Yu, will never live alone. As long as I am still alive, I will be the first to charge. Of course, I will be the first to die!"

"Okay! Don't say much, if you are not afraid of death, come with me!"

After finishing speaking, Xiang Yu turned his horse's head, held the Overlord's Halberd, and rushed straight towards Julu City.

The generals under Xiang Yu's command looked at each other, their eyes were bright, and their blood was boiling.

If you fail, you will perish.

A man should be like this in his life, so there is no need for so many retreats.

The enemy was right in front, and the only way to save their lives was to fight to the death. The pro-army under the command of the five immediately smashed all the boats parked on the north bank of the Wei River, as well as the iron pots on the boats.

"I would like to follow in the footsteps of General Xiang, and if I win, I will perish!"

"I would like to follow in the footsteps of General Xiang, and if I win, I will perish!"

Long Qie and the other five shouted and chased after Xiang Yu.

The tens of thousands of troops knew that there was nowhere ahead and behind them, so they could only bite the bullet and charge forward, because there was still a chance of life going forward, but there was no chance of life going backward.

After all, Zhangshui is dangerous, and it is impossible to cross the river without boats.

So at this moment, the combat power of Xiang Yu's army was instantly raised to its peak.

In Julu City, 20 Chuxiang remnants joined with [-] Zhao troops, and were surrounded by [-] Qin troops, almost cutting off food and grass.

Zhang Han led [-] Qin troops to station on the south side of Julu, and Sima Xin and Dong Yi each led [-] Qin troops to station on the north side.

And Zhang Ping, Zhang Han's younger brother, led [-] Qin troops to station on the west side to prevent the rebels in Julu City from fleeing westward.

At the same time, all reinforcements for the rebels were cut off.

The terrain of Julu is complicated, and Zhang Han's army pursued from the south of the Yellow River to the north of the Yellow River without resting all the way. Therefore, after arriving at Julu, Zhang Han did not order to attack, but surrounded instead of attacking.

One reason is to prepare food and grass, and the other reason is to rest the army.

When Zhang Han received Li Xin's reply, he began to prepare to attack the city. Now that everything was ready, he ordered the whole army to attack, preparing to take Julu City before Li Xin arrived.

"Woooooo-"

As soon as the horn of battle sounded, the [-] army led by Zhang Han took the lead in attacking.

At this time, Zhang Han was riding on the horse, watching the wolf-like Qin army, rushing towards Julu City, but after a while, he felt that something was wrong, so he said to the messenger Sima next to him: "Go and see what's going on!" What's the matter, why haven't Sima Xin sent troops yet?"

The strategy that was originally discussed was to attack from three sides, but his own side was dispatched, and the other two sides did not move. This made Zhang Han feel very puzzled, and at the same time thought of a possibility.

This may be the reinforcements of King Huai of Chu.

As we all know, Chu State is the head of the Six Kingdoms, most of the troops led by Xiang Bo are the coalition forces of the Five Kingdoms, while the Chu State’s army is in the hands of Xiang Yu and King Huai of Chu, so Zhang Han’s destruction of the coalition forces consumes the strength of the six nations , rather than Chu's military power.

In this way, the army that can rush to the rescue of Julu must be the army of Chu State.

Among the generals of the Chu State, Xiang Yu is definitely an existence that cannot be ignored.

"Is Xiang Yu here?"

Zhang Han frowned, thoughtful.

However, before he could figure it out, the messenger Sima who was sent out hurried back and reported to him: "General, there are rebels attacking our army's flank!"

Are there really reinforcements?

How did it come so suddenly?

Zhang Han, who was riding on the horse, was obviously taken aback when he heard the report from the messenger Sima.

After reacting for a while, he frowned and asked, "Have you seen the opponent's flag clearly?"

"I see clearly, it is an army flying the banner of the Chu army!" Sima the messenger replied quickly.

It's really Chu Jun!
It seems that King Huai of Chu really sent someone to rescue him!

Although it was unexpected, it was also expected, but now that the enemy appeared behind him, this was definitely bad news.

Because in order to attack Julu City, Zhang Han's army has been dispersed.

20 troops are divided into four places, and the line of defense is very long. As a result, it is difficult to look after each other head to tail.

"Immediately send an order to close the flanks of the two armies, move closer to the central army, and send someone to Zhang Ping to lead the cavalry to help!"

As soon as Zhang Han's order was delivered, Sima was ordered to ride his horse again and charge westward.

However, before the messenger Sima left, several more messenger Sima arrived in a hurry.

And the news brought by the messenger Sima, without exception, is that the Chu army suddenly appeared behind him.

For a moment, Zhang Han felt that the Chu army was attacking his rear army from all directions.

Even though Zhang Han had fought for a long time, at this moment, he was a little panicked.

Because the rear army is the main force, and now the main force is being attacked by the enemy from all directions, he has to panic.

And the most deadly thing is that the army is too scattered and can only fight on its own, and Zhang Han can't personally command it. In this way, it is easy for the soldiers under his command to mistakenly think that they are surrounded.

Once morale collapses, a big defeat is inevitable.

Thinking of this, Zhang Han immediately changed the order just now, and said to the messenger Sima: "I will send the order to the general, and the whole army will attack Julu City. While attacking, move closer to the Chinese army!"

"The whole army is attacking Julu City? General, don't we attack Julu City from the front and back?" The messenger Sima looked at Zhang Han in puzzlement.

Zhang Han glanced at him, and said coldly, "Do you think the rebels in Julu City won't cooperate with Chu's rescue?"

"This"

The messenger Sima was speechless.

But I heard Zhang Han say again: "If we stick to our position, we will be under the enemy's back. The only way to survive is to attack Julu City and strangle with the rebels in Julu City, and wait for Sima Xin and Dong Yi to come to help!"

"I see!"

The messenger Sima was stunned, and then decisively went to pass the order.

Just as Zhang Han expected, before Xiang Yu attacked Zhang Han's rear army, he had already sent someone to notify the Chu Xiang remnant army in Julu City.

Knowing that Xiang Yu came to help, Chu Xiang's remnant army, as if grasping at straws, immediately united with the [-] Zhao troops in the city, and dispatched all their nests to meet Zhang Han's central army.

For a time, more than 15 troops were fighting outside Julu City.

At the beginning, Xiang Yu ordered Longqi, Yingbu and other five people to attack Zhang Han's rear army respectively, while Xiang Yu led his 5000 troops to take Zhang Han's central army directly.

Seeing that Zhang Han's army did not return to defense, but was attacking in the direction of Julu City, Xiang Yu was a little puzzled for a while.

Fortunately, Xiang Yu's Yafu Fan Zeng solved his doubts for him.

"Yu'er, do you know why Zhang Han didn't retreat but advanced?" Fan Zeng stroked his beard lightly, looking at Zhang Han's army who was fighting in the distance.

Xiang Yu, who was riding beside him, simply shook his head: "I don't know."

"Zhang Han is a genius in the sky. If the Qin government hadn't collapsed, he might have rejuvenated the Qin country. However, time is fate, and it's only because he met you!"

Fan Zeng said something with emotion, and then said to Xiang Yu with a deep voice: "At this time, Zhang Han ordered the Chinese army to attack the city in order to strangle with the coalition forces in Julu City. Only in this way, his rear army will not be attacked by us. collapse!"

"Because the Chinese army attacked the city, it can show that they are not surrounded by us, and once the two sides are strangled together, we will not be able to attack them with all our strength!"

"In this way, Zhang Han can delay the time, wait for another Qin army to arrive, and then surround us here!"

Hearing this, Xiang Yu suddenly realized, and hurriedly asked Fan Zeng: "Yafu, you asked me to use thousands of people to go to the other direction of Julu, and set up a fake army to set up an ambush. Is it to make another Qin army suspicious?"

"Not bad!"

Fan Zeng smiled slightly, then nodded and said: "Although Zhang Han is a man of military skill, not everyone believes in Zhang Han. As long as you give you some time, take off Zhang Han's head, there is no problem!"

"Zhang Han killed my uncle, if he does not avenge this revenge, I, Xiang Yu, swear I will not be a human being!"

A cold light flashed in Xiang Yu's eyes, and he said coldly.

"Yu'er, don't worry, as long as you follow my plan, you will definitely get what you want!"

Fan Zeng is full of confidence.

"Thank you, Yafu!"

Xiang Yu said something solemnly, then raised the Overlord's Halberd, rushed forward like an arrow off the string, and shouted loudly: "I am Xiang Yu of the Chu Kingdom, I am not afraid of death, go forward and fight!"

As soon as the words fell, all the troops were stunned, and then they saw that they were all in a mess.

I saw that Xiang Yu took the lead and led the army under his command like a broken bamboo, breaking through the defense line of Zhang Han's rear army in less than a moment.

At the same time, Zhang Han's army was fighting with the rebels in Julu City to a fierce stage.

Seeing the retreat of the rebel army in Julu City, the smile on Zhang Han's face became wider and wider, but before he was too happy, there was another shout from behind: "General! It's not good! The Chu army is coming this way!" Kill it!"

"what!"

Zhang Han was startled, and wondered how many people from the Chu army had come, and why they killed them so quickly?

Then the rear army has [-] troops. Could it be that the Chu army rescued [-] troops?

"What's going on! Let's talk about it quickly!"

Zhang Han's face darkened, and he immediately shouted at the messenger Sima.

The messenger Sima didn't have time to panic, and hurriedly said: "The specifics are not clear to the subordinates, but there is a man in the Chu army camp who is extremely brave. First!"

"Who is so powerful?"

"My subordinates heard that the man claimed to be Xiang Yu from Chu State!"

Xiang Yu of Chu State?

He really is here!

Zhang Han's expression sank.

Although he had never fought against Xiang Yu, he had heard of Xiang Yu's fighting style for a long time.

It is said that Xiang Yu has unstoppable courage and takes the lead in every battle.

Moreover, in the city that Xiang Yu destroyed, the people in the city would be slaughtered.

Such a brutal and brave general is by no means an ordinary person.

After pondering for a moment, Zhang Han immediately ordered: "Send me the general order, the whole army gathers and resists the Chu army!"
