Destiny Only Han

Chapter 299 Han Xin: Final round, Gaixia!
The vast plain to the north of Chen County has been covered by black masses of people at this moment.

Although the Han army has as many as 60 million people, it is limited by the width of the battlefield and the chain of command, so it is actually about the same length as the opposite Chu army.

After being down-to-earth, Liu Bang could only give up many whims, but honestly deployed his troops in accordance with the principle of "fight one and defend two".

The so-called fighting one and defending two means that the army is divided into three teams, one of which fights at the front, and the two teams rotate at the back.

If the front team wins, the rear team goes forward to pursue.

And if the former team is defeated, there will be two new teams as support.

It is stable, simple, but easy to use.

But on the opposite side, Xiang Yu didn't have so many troops for rotation.

All the infantry of the Chu army pressed forward, but only ensured that their front line was equal to that of the Han army.

So when Liu Bang stood on the cloud car and looked around, his heart was full of regrets.

If it weren't for the fact that he had no way to command a farther place, he would definitely form a line of troops fighting two and defending one, and surrounded the Chu army to fight!
Beside him, Zhou Bo, who was a general of the Chinese army, also felt a little dizzy before his eyes.

He has been in the army for so many years, and he has never fought a battle with such rich troops!

One person, one pee, definitely drowned Xiang Yu!
As the battle drums were rumbling, the Han army, with a large number of people, took the initiative to challenge.

Drums and whistles are mixed together. Although they are two completely different instruments, their frequencies are exactly the same.

When the drum rang, the copper whistle blew, and the soldiers who heard the whistle immediately took a step forward.

Walking at the forefront of the spearmen's phalanx at this moment is a horizontal line with strong crossbows and bows.

With Honggou, a canal that is more convenient than a highway, the material resources in Guanzhong are continuously transported through the Weishui-Dahe-Honggou water transportation system.

A large boat loaded with heavy loads only needs one person and one bamboo pole to control it freely and comfortably.

What is reflected on the battlefield at this moment is the overwhelming advantage produced by hundreds of thousands of feathered arrows.

Arrows are like rain, piercing the clouds and piercing the sky.

Xiang Yu had no choice but to order the whole army to raise their shields and charge.

The loss of Pengcheng was not only the fall of the capital, but also meant that the entire supply line of the Chu army was broken.

Things such as food and clothes are easy to solve, but arrows, which require feathers, metal, and wood, have no place to replenish them.

Although Western Chu is vast and abundant in supplies.

Even at this time, there are still several counties still loyal to Xiang Yu.

But without the transfer station of Pengcheng, as well as the large and small officials in Pengcheng, the amount of supplies is no longer important.

Anyway, it can't be shipped...

What Xiang Yu's army ahead can rely on is the supply stations they have established before.

The supplies needed by hundreds of thousands of legions every day is an astronomical figure, and it is unrealistic to transport them all at once.

So everyone is setting up a transfer station on the supply line, and then transferring the materials step by step.

This is why Xiang Yu chose to retreat from this road.

Fewer people are better to eat, more people are better to do things.

The army of more than a dozen or 20 people does not rely on the supplies prepared in the early stage to survive, but only relies on temporary robbing, and I am afraid that they will all starve to death within a few days...

On the cloud chariot of the Shogunate of the Chinese Army, after seeing the Chu army begin to charge, Liu Bang immediately ordered the crossbowmen to withdraw from the formation, and the heavy armored spearmen stepped forward to launch a countercharge.

At this time, the autumn air is crisp, and the high temperature that made you sweat all over the body before is gone. Therefore, the heavy infantry in thick armor is now full of energy and marching forward with neat steps.

When the infantry of the two sides fought together, Xiang Yu stepped down from the podium and jumped on his horse.

Commanding the infantry to fight in formation is not his strong point. What he is best at is leading the cavalry to charge into the formation, tearing apart the enemy's formation from point to point.

Therefore, this kind of scene where the infantry on both sides are stalemate together, and it will be impossible to tell the winner for a while, is exactly what Xiang Yu likes to see.

In this way, he has enough time to personally lead the cavalry unit, patrolling the flanks of the battlefield, looking for a suitable time to enter the field.

His tactics are exactly the same as the hammer and anvil tactics used by Alexander the Great back then.

To be together to win by surprise.

In fact, this tactic was not only used by the Macedonians, but also by the people of the Central Plains, and it was not only used before BC, but also after BC.

For example, Kidnapper Horse and Iron Buddha Tu are actually a kind of hammer and anvil tactics.

Well, the Kidnapper Horse is not an original art of Jin Wushu. In the formation diagram formulated by Song Zhenzong, there is already a Kidnapper Horse.

According to the mark on that picture, any cavalry deployed on both sides could be called kidnappers at that time.

But although the Song Dynasty had everything, it couldn't realize the hammer and anvil tactics at all.

The iron-blooded Song Dynasty does not lack cavalry for combat and heavy cavalry for breaking formations. The biggest problem is that the proportion of crossbowmen in the army is increasing.

Thanks to the gift of the Donkey Chariot God of War, the early elites were given for nothing, which led to the subsequent training of heavy infantry who could not hold the line. The result was that the light infantry in the rear had to face the opponent's heavy group directly.

As a result, the light infantry began to stack their armor, which further dragged down the overall rhythm of the attack.

But the art of war is that the dead are alive.

When it came time for Yue Shaobao to show his talents, he changed his previous combat methods and used cavalry as an anvil and heavy infantry as a hammer.

After the battle, the cavalry sticks to the opponent, and then the heavy infantry outflanks and squeezes the enemy, and finally the long sword and big ax that determine the winner come on the stage.

So at this moment, facing the powerful cavalry of the Chu army, Liu Bang did not let the Langzhong cavalry fight, but let the Langzhong cavalry gather and change homes with Xiang Yu.

Simply put, you hit yours and I hit mine.

You flank my rear, and I do the same.

Then, the car overturned...

Most of the guards on the flanks of the Han army were soldiers conscripted from Yanzhao. Although they had been trained, they had not fought many times.

At this moment, facing the main cavalry of the Chu army who was almost desperate, they could only form an formation to protect themselves.

Therefore, Xiang Yu immediately turned on the unparalleled mowing mode.

It's just that in the shogunate of the Han army, except for Liu Bang's unbearable expression, Zhang Liang, Han Xin and others are all in the presence of old gods, looking like they are holding wisdom beads.

In Tian Ji's horse races in the past, the top horses played against the middle horses, the middle horses played against the bottom horses, and the bottom horses played against the top horses. In the end, two out of three games won.

Among the Han army at this moment, it is the following Si pairing the upper Si.

Before the start of the war, Liu Bang distributed almost all the eliminated leather armors to the Yanzhao army at the rear, so they each stacked several layers of armor...

Therefore, Xiang Yu led the cavalry of the Chu army to seem invincible, but in fact the casualties of the Yanzhao army were not large.

As a result, the number of casualties of the Chu cavalry whose charge speed decreased gradually began to increase.

It's very simple. Although the cavalry of the Chu army are brave and good at fighting, the Yanzhao army has more than [-] troops.

The advantage in numbers, coupled with the sense of security brought by the thick armor on their bodies, prevented them from breaking up when they faced the Chu cavalry charge.

After seeing the blood, his courage multiplied, and he had a sharp weapon in his body, and his murderous heart suddenly rose!
Although Xiang Yu tried to break out of the formation, but the infantry phalanx here was stacked on top of each other, and it was impossible to see the end at a glance.

He had no choice but to use himself as the spearhead, trying to break through the blockades, trying to move the cavalry of the Chu army as much as possible, so as to avoid being surrounded by infantry after losing speed, and chopped into a pulp...

Among the infantry of the Chu army, the Langzhong cavalry separated from the Hu cavalry and Yanzhao cavalry who were also in the formation before charging.

This kind of separation is not to fight each other, but to promote the side that each is good at.

Hu Qi is good at shooting immediately, but his lethality is limited, so he can be used to harass before battle.

The Yanzhao cavalry are good at fighting in formations, but their personal martial arts skills are not high, so they are in the rear.

Although Langzhong's cavalry are all-powerful, their number is less than ten thousand, so they wear heavy armor to break the formation.

In terms of specific tactics, the Hu cavalry attacked and disturbed the formation of the Chu army. Afterwards, Guan Ying led the Langzhong cavalry to make a sudden advance on the flanks, tearing open the gap and continuing to attack in depth, and the Yanzhao cavalry who came later took advantage of the gap. Continue tearing the notch.

However, although the infantry of the Chu army is not well equipped, they have rich combat skills.

Guan Ying led the team to charge several times, but did not achieve much results, so he changed from patrolling on the flanks to fighting with the heavy infantry of the Han army.

And Liu Bang, who was on the cloud car, also saw this scene through the telescope.

He glanced at Han Xin secretly, although he was a little reluctant, he still admitted the other party's statement.

The combat power of the Han army is not bad, but because the army is too large at this time, good and bad are mixed, and it cannot take much advantage in the overall battle with the Chu army.

So at this moment, Liu Bang had the idea of ​​withdrawing troops in his heart.

Withdraw first, slowly drill the army, the most important thing is to train together to cultivate a tacit understanding in combat.

Moreover, the Chu army's supplies are still sufficient, and the army's morale is not disturbed. It is not impossible to forcibly eat the opponent, but the loss is too great to be worthwhile.

After figuring it out, Liu Bang looked at Han Xin and nodded slightly, hoping that the other party would take the initiative to take over the command, and then he could find a step to go down by himself...

But Han Xin is Han Xin, and I don’t know if he is pretending not to know, or if he really doesn’t know, he just nodded to Liu Bang, but didn’t say anything...

Zhang Liang turned around silently, his shoulders swaying non-stop.

Liu Bang was helpless, and after giving the order to withdraw troops, he looked at Han Xin and said, "You are right, it is indeed not suitable for a decisive battle with Xiang Yu..."

Han Xin nodded, took out a silk cloth map from his arms, and said confidently:

"The decisive battle I deduced is here...the Chu army will not be able to join the Zhou Yin army, nor will they be able to go north and return to Pengcheng. As for going south, the torrential river will prevent them from crossing the river and returning to Kuaiji..."

"In this way, if you are exhausted, your army has no fighting spirit, and you are desperate, you will definitely be able to win the world in one battle!"

Liu Bang looked in the direction of his finger, and saw a large circle of ink smeared on the north bank of the river, about between Qi County and Xu County.

However, Liu Bang's attention was placed on the edge of the circle, because there were three small characters written there.

Daze Township.

The name was so attractive that he ignored the other two words in the middle of the circle.

Gaixia!
