Warring States Call

Chapter 1902: Han Xin retreats
"Swoosh!" The cold arrow in Xue Rengui's hand reflected up and down. The two generals Xiang Ying and Fang Tianding were looking at Xue Rengui who was running away, but they were full of murderous aura.The movement was done in one go, and the two arrows were fired at once, only Xiang Ying and Fang Tianding were caught off guard.

Xiang Ying was directly shot through the throat by Xue Rengui, and when he fell off the horse and threw him to the ground, he couldn't die. Fang Tianding, who was on the side, had better luck and was shot in the heart. For him, it's just a matter of time.

One arrow killed the two, Xue Rengui turned his hand and took out the cold arrow from the quiver, staring indifferently at the soldiers who charged towards him, Xue Rengui bent his bow and set the arrow.

At this moment, Xiang Sheng and Xiang Xiang in the rebellious army, looking at Xiang He who was shot to death, the anger in their eyes. In their view, Xiang He is their brother, and Xue Rengui can only shoot Xiang Ta. He was completely involved in the sneak attack. He was looking at Xue Rengui at the moment. How could the two bear it? They slapped the horse with their weapons and urged the horse to charge, as if they wanted to fight Xue Rengui desperately.

"Stupid!" Xue Rengui drew his bow to the full moon, grabbed four arrows, and shouted angrily, "Hit!"

"Swish, whoosh!" The sound of four cold arrows radiated out, Xiang Sheng swept the silver gun in his hand, knocking over the two cold arrows in front of him, Xiang Sheng's eyes were full of disdain, and Xiang Ying did the same, both of them were very relaxed .

But the two of them just relaxed and wanted to mock Xue Rengui, but in the next second they only felt their throats choked up and their blood pouring into the spring.

Only then did the two look back at Xue Rengui, seeing that he was still maintaining the posture of shooting arrows, a thought of fear and regret appeared in their eyes, and they finally understood that Xue Rengui's original cold arrow was just to confuse them, the real What shot them was the cold arrow that had just been released.

"Plop... Pat!" The figures of the two famous generals slowly fell off their horses, shaking up countless dust, and left this world with hatred in their eyes.

"Bow...hands! Prepare...prepare...!" Deng Ai was riding a war horse, stammering, with a serious expression on his face.

"Kill...kill...kill!" Deng Ai was about to outflank the soldier and horse, but tens of thousands of shouts came from outside the gate, and the scalps of those who heard it felt a little numb.

Seeing that the situation was gradually being controlled by Han Xin, Han Xin's eyes were full of chances of winning, but the figures of Deng Ai and Zhong Hui appeared in front of Han Xin in the next second, their eyes were full of solemnity, even Zhong Hui's expression was even worse.

Han Xin looked a little puzzled. He still knew the level of his two outstanding apprentices. Zhong Hui had experienced a big battle. Now the two are in such a panic. Even Han Xin is a little hesitant. What made him collapse in the face The apprentice who didn't change his face panicked like this.

"Xiang Guo's reinforcements are here, they seem to be soldiers and horses from the Allied Forces of the Four Nations! The momentum... quite... quite... huge!" Zhong Hui, who was originally fluent, stuttered a little now.

Han Xin's face froze, he hurried to the high point, looked up and down, and saw Xiang!Mountain!Qin!The soldiers and horses from the four kingdoms of Yue charged forward, and Han Xin's face was cloudy and uncertain. He had some doubts whether this was the enemy's suspicious strategy, but Han Xin didn't dare to bet.

Betting on this battle, there are nothing more than two results. One is that this is Xiang Yu's suspicious strategy. This night attack directly turned into a decisive battle. Although it can be won, it will definitely suffer heavy losses. Killing the enemy will cost you eight hundred The result, the other is... This is the reason why the suspect is true. Han Xin will be defeated if he is surrounded by soldiers from all directions.

Once Han Xin's [-] soldiers and horses were wiped out, Han Yi's pace of going south will inevitably stagnate, and he might be counterattacked by Xiang Yu, and various anti-Korean forces are uneven.

Of course, Han Xin has another result, which is to retreat, but the result is that Han Xin, who has never been defeated, will become Xiang Yu's stepping stone.

Han Xin hesitated again and again when it came to fame, fortune, and the righteousness of the family and the country. Han Xin couldn't help but scratched his forehead. To be honest, Han Xin couldn't accept any of these three results. If the two evils are the lesser, then he can only choose the one with the least casualties When that one came to an end, Han Xin sighed and said helplessly, "Temporary retreat! Don't panic!"

"woo woo woo woo!"

The horn of retreat sounded slowly, and all the generals were unbelievable. They were all ready to fight to the death, but they retreated in the end. As generals, they must obey orders.

"Damn it... withdraw." Li Cunxiao stared at Xiang Yu unwillingly. The four of them were sweating profusely. They withdrew immediately, but Xiang Yu didn't chase after him. Looking at the wound left by Liu Zhi's plot, Xiang Yu frowned involuntarily .

Han Xin turned on his horse, looked at Deng Ai and Zhong Hui and said, "Ambush from left to right! If the enemy dares to pursue them, kill them!"

"No!" Both of them were Ming Xiao, and immediately led the troops to stop them.

And Yu Ziqi hurriedly came to Xiang Yu's side on a horse, and said solemnly: "My lord! Do you want to chase?"

"No need!" Xiang Yu waved his hand to stop him, glanced at the orderly Han soldiers, Xiang Yu took off his helmet, sighed and said: "The Han army's state is not in chaos, count the gains!"

"promise!"

"Report! General Shen Zhuliang used the tactic of suspicious soldiers to frighten the Han army away!" Yang Fan urged his horse to come forward and reported the current battle situation to Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu pressed the sword in his arms and looked at the soldiers who kept carrying the corpses. Xiang Yu broke his sword and said with a smile: "Shen Zhuliang did a good job, pass my order, Shen Zhuliang should be the first in this battle, and he will be named Chu Chengjun , Take the position of general!"

"My lord! Thank you, Your Majesty!" Shen Zhuliang, who had just hurried over, knelt down and kowtowed to Xiang Yu with a happy expression on his face.

Xiang Yu was panting heavily, looking left and right, but he couldn't find the figure he wanted to see. Xiang Yu was stunned for a moment, and looked at Yu Ziqi who hurried to the side, and Xiang Yu said with a puzzled expression: "Where is Zhongli Mo? Where's the baby? Where's the person?"

"Your Majesty...!" Yu Ziqi swallowed, and finally told the truth about the situation of the battle, and said solemnly: "Zhongli Mo, Xiang Ying, Fang Tianding, Xiang Sheng, and Xiang Xiang all died in battle."

Xiang Yu, whose face was originally slack, burst into anger, suddenly raised his head to stare at Yu Ziqi, rushed up, grabbed Yu Ziqi with both hands, gasped heavily, and said, "You! Huh! Say it!"

Xiang Yu was like a wild lion on the verge of eruption, glaring at Yu Ziqi, as if this was not the answer he wanted.

Yu Ziqi also knew that he couldn't get rid of Xiang Yu's huge strength, so he could only say helplessly: "My lord! My lord...!"

Xiang Yu staggered and almost lost his footing. Yu Ziqi was about to help Xiang Yu, but was pushed away by Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu steadied his body, and said solemnly, "Where is the man!"

Yu Ziqi waved helplessly, and the soldiers behind directly carried Zhongli Mo's body over, along with the corpses of Xiang Ying and others.

"Admiral of the Five Tigers... I lost the second... Zhong Limei!" Xiang Yu knelt on the ground, looking at the familiar figures one after another in the past, the tears in the corners of Xiang Yu's eyes ran across his face involuntarily. It was honestly picking up Zhongli Mo's body, Xiang Yu said with a stern expression: "Go back to the city!"

"promise!"

The news that Xiang Yu repelled Han Xin's 30 soldiers and horses with only [-] soldiers and horses came out, and the whole world was shocked. The names of Xiang Yu and Shen Zhuliang also resounded all over the world.

To be honest, Xiang Yu's battle was nothing more than a small victory, and Han Xin was not defeated, but he was exaggerated by someone with a heart, which achieved the current result.

Inside the Book Pavilion in Xianyang, Qin State

Ying Zheng looked at the bamboo slips in his hand, and seemed to recall Xiang Yu's defeat of Han Xin in his mind. They gave this battle a name. In the Battle of Pengcheng, Xiang Yu defeated Han Xin with tens of thousands of soldiers and 30 soldiers. Army, beheaded 2 people.

Ying Zheng finished looking at the bamboo slips in his hand, then shook his head with a smile, handed the bamboo slips in his hand to Baili Xi who was sitting below, and said with a smile: "Xiang Guo has shown his face in this world. After the end, Xiang Guo may be destroyed, after all, we underestimated Xiang Yu, he is a character!"

"Your Majesty! Could it be that you want to send troops!" Baili Xi asked subconsciously as he looked at Ying Zheng's cloudy eyes and seemed to sense Ying Zheng's intentions.

"Oh! Ziming understands me." Ying Zheng looked at Bailixi with a smile. He wanted to hear Bailixi's opinion, or this counselor whom he regarded as his confidant.

Bailixi shook his head, and put him away after reading the bamboo slips. Bailixi said indifferently: "At present, our army should absorb refugees, reclaim wasteland, accumulate strength, train the people as soldiers, and train millions of men to train as many as possible." For the soldiers! Implementing the military and civilian system, we are adopting Shang Yang's order of seeking talents, recruiting talents, and preparing for the future war!"

This is Bailixi's initial strategic policy for Yingzheng. In Bailixi's view, Han Yi's desire to dominate the world may be very powerful, and Qin State wants to resist Han Yi. All the people have to be soldiers. Under the premise, you must not be tough with Han Yi, otherwise it will damage the national strength.

"Tsk tsk...!" Ying Zheng felt a little regretful, although he had this idea, but Bailixi's suggestion was more sincere, Ying Zheng scratched his forehead, and then said: "It's a pity, I can't bite off a piece of Han Yi's flesh! "

"My lord! Don't be impulsive in everything. Although Xiang Yu is victorious, he has a lot of water. 30 people beheaded [-], which is of no great use. The country of Xiang will definitely be destroyed." Bailixi said the implementation directly.

"That's right!" Ying Zheng also knew that it was no longer about pure bravery in war competitions. In the 20 years of war, the way of the battlefield has also begun to change.

Let’s use an analogy. When Han Yi destroyed Zheng, it was all based on the bravery of individuals and soldiers, and the combat effectiveness of soldiers. That was the first ten years, and then it changed directly in the next ten years. It began to compete for national strength, which included economics. , military, diplomacy, etc.

In terms of economy, Han Yi vigorously developed elite armor and weapons. When Han Yi was using fine knives and fine armor, they were still using bronze and leather armor, which can be said to be dominated by Han Yi.

In order to narrow the gap with Han Yi, almost all of Qin's half-year tax was spent on iron smelting and forging. In addition, it will vigorously develop fertile land and wasteland, and from time to time send a young general such as Nei Shi Teng to the barbarian land to capture the prisoners. population, teach them to farm and cultivate land, and integrate them into the Qin people, which shows Yingzheng's painstaking efforts.

Ying Zheng scratched his temple, and said worriedly for a while: "If Han Yi succeeds in unifying the south, it will be a good thing for our country!"

"Don't worry, my lord. It only takes three years. When the situation in Liangdi stabilizes, we will have the opportunity to go east. However, it is too difficult for Han Yi to rely on three years to unify the south!" Baili Xi He said with a smile.

"Ok!"

钟吾
Han Yi looked at the battle report in front of him, and leaned on the table with his eyes closed. Beneath him were Han Xin and Zhuge Liang who were kneeling. They came back overnight to report on their duties.

Han Yi lay on the chair, closed his eyes and meditated, and didn't even have the intention to open them. After a while, Han Yi said, "It's been many years of fighting! I haven't tasted the taste of failure. How do you feel now?"

"Your Majesty, I'm guilty," Han Xin said immediately.

"Did Gu ever blame you? Victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. If you come to Zhong Wu specifically to plead guilty to Gu, then you will be so disappointed!" Han Yi closed his eyes, enjoying Xiao Meiniang's pinching for himself. The temple is very pleasant.

"My lord! If you want to divide the troops and fight, let Wu Qi! Zhuge Liang and the two generals each order their own troops to fight. If you restrain the two of them and cannot exert their due combat power, please ask the king to increase the number of troops by [-]. Before the winter solstice, we must Break the ground!" Han Xin vowed.

"Oh!" At this time, Han Yi finally opened his eyes, and Xiao Meiniang behind her also put her hands in her belly, and slowly exited the hall.

"Han Qinhu has 20 soldiers, Cao Cao has 20 soldiers, Wu Qi has 70 soldiers, Zhuge Liang has 30 soldiers, and you have [-] in your hands, adding up to [-], and you can deal with [-] soldiers. Xiang Yu, is he making a fuss out of a molehill?” To be honest, Han Yi didn’t want to increase his troops anymore, after all, the more troops increased, the greater the domestic consumption, and the daily supply of food and grass was in the millions.

"My lord! Xiang Yu is a brave man. It is not difficult to destroy these 30 soldiers, but to kill Xiang Yu, 80 soldiers are necessary. You must lay an ambush on all sides, so that Xiang Yu has no way to go to the sky and nowhere to go to the ground!" Han Xin said solemnly.

"Well!" Han Yi pondered for a long time, and said for a long time: "How about this! Yuan Chonghuan's 90 soldiers and horses in the Sui Dynasty will be under your command for the time being, and the [-] soldiers who are alone in the country will be handed over to Commander Li Jing of the Prince's Mansion. Into your command, [-] soldiers and horses, I will give you two months alone, if Xiang Yu cannot be defeated in two months, you will understand...!"

"I...understand!" Han Xin cupped his fists, his voice was like a bell, as if he was bound to win.

"Gu will take Han Ning back to Chang'an this day, and Ming'er will be under your command to wait for the general's order. The Mountain Kingdom and the Yue Kingdom will not cause you trouble, and Gu will block you for you, but Gu wants to remind you, if Xiang Yu can catch him alive If it doesn't work, then catch the alive... If it doesn't work, then kill it!" Han Yi sighed heavily, Han Yi actually felt guilty, after all, Xiang Yu is a hero through the ages, but with Xiang Yu's arrogance, he will definitely not surrender.

"Minister! Follow orders!"
