My son, Fusu, please abdicate the first emperor!

Chapter 253 Attacking the Heart (please give me a monthly recommendation ticket!)

Xiang Yan sent people out of the city several times to provoke him.

But Fusu never even left Xinzheng City.

The soldiers of the Chu State also had spies in Qin. When the news came back to the Chu army, the soldiers of the Chu State began to be a little disappointed with Xiang Yan.

Because things didn't go according to Xiang Yan's words at all.

Xiang Yan appeased the generals, "The spies came to report that the Qin army had separated from the Prince of Qin. In order to appease the Qin army, the Prince of Qin went to the military camp to check in person, and then wait. When the people within the Qin army are uneasy, it is best for us to attack." opportunity."

The generals listened, but they were no longer willing to believe Xiang Yan.

Song Yi and other generals discussed privately, "Whether he will lead troops to fight or not, will it be just us?"

Soldiers on both sides are looking forward to it, looking forward to it, the day of the Spring Festival is coming.

The soldiers under Xiang Yan have been guarding the city for a full month. 20 soldiers and horses are stationed in front of the city. Even if they don't take action, they don't know what the commander-in-chief Xiang Yan is thinking.

The Chu soldiers could no longer hold back and proposed to attack the city again.

Originally, only some senior generals representing the big families of Chu State advocated attacking the city in advance, but now some generals in the middle and lower positions are also talking about it.

Xiang Yan was very passive.

Sitting in the tent, he heard soldiers passing by his door from time to time. Naturally, they would not say it clearly, but they just sighed that the Spring Festival was coming.

When Xiang Yan went out, he would always encounter three or five soldiers gathered together, seemingly discussing something.As soon as he appeared, the soldiers immediately scattered and walked away.

Seeing that they could no longer leave, some of them turned around, clasped their fists, and made a military salute, "Greetings to the general."

Xiang Yan took the initiative to put down her arrogance, looked kindly, and wanted to get close to them to talk, but they didn't appreciate it and just found excuses to excuse themselves.

He could still intimidate these generals with his one-man power; and relying on the King of Chu's trust in him, he always reminded them not to act recklessly.

But once these people took control of the military, they forgot their original intention of winning the battle to please the King of Chu. Now they are thinking about how to use this opportunity to make themselves stronger.

These clues are terrifying to think about.

I saw that my colleagues had no foresight at all and still had the same muddled and narrow mentality as before. "Almost all of them are short-sighted."

Seeing that there were only [-] archers in Wancheng, I felt that the enemy army was small and our army was large, so we could capture Wancheng.There is no big picture at all.

Seeing that the prince of Qin did not retaliate or fight back when being insulted, I just felt that he was cowardly.I never feel panic or worry about the state of mind of such people.

Xiang Yan herself lamented, "I want to go to the sky, but there is no good wind to rely on."

After three or five days, Xiang Yan himself had to waver.

I originally wanted the Qin people to have conflicts among themselves first, causing the Qin army to become morally confused; but now, the Chu people themselves were in chaos first.Xiang Yan frowned, but he didn't even have anyone to complain to.

Xinzheng and Fusu received secret messages from spies in the enemy camp.

Fusu immediately sent people to the military camp to invite Meng Tian and Li Xin to come over.

"I have received news that people in the Chu military camp are now at odds. Before the Chu army came to the city, Xiang Yan did not order troops to attack Wancheng for a long time. The soldiers were speculating and suspicious. For our Qin State, if we take action at this time, it will be more difficult than Xiang Yan. If Yan is slow, our Qin country will suffer heavy losses."

"So I decided to send troops immediately. A fierce general led 5 troops and attacked Pinghe at night."

[Pingyu: Also give lectures on Pingyu]

"Wancheng, Pingyu, and the Xiang family's fiefdom all happen to be on the same line. Wancheng is the farthest east, Pingyu is in the middle, and the Xiang land is behind it."

The surname of the Xiang family was originally named because the fiefdom was in Xiang.Hence the name Xiang Di, but it is actually equivalent to a large city, but the land on that side belongs to the Xiang family.

As a boy, Xiang Yu himself was the heir to a prominent landlord family at that time.

In later history, Xiang Yu showed various obsessions with the land of Chu, which originated from the history and local glory of the Xiang family.

Closer to home.

Fusu thought, "Wancheng is dozens of miles away from Pingyu, and we can't reach it even if we march for three days and three nights. I know that before Xiang Yan left, the King of Chu promised to give Xiang Yan 40 troops. Now, now He only has 20 soldiers and horses."

"I guess that even if the King of Chu didn't give him enough 40, he must have deployed troops elsewhere. I'm afraid there are still a lot of troops. Although Chu State claims to have brought 20 troops, in fact, there are only 12 in Wancheng forward."

"Xiang Yan is different from other generals of the Chu State. As early as when King Chu Kaolie of the Chu State was alive, he pointed at Xiang Yan and said that he could be a general in the future. After the King of Chu succeeded to the throne, he The first major thing he did was to appoint Xiang Yan as the general. Over the years, he had been arranging the army, horses and food, and was very familiar with the cities, population, and terrain of Chu State. Because he was rigorous in running the army, the people of Chu State also Everybody supports him.”

"He led troops to Wancheng, but he never had any intention of taking the initiative to attack. This shows that he has no intention of underestimating my enemy. This alone is already better than many generals."

"He must have backup plans. He must be ready to deal with our army at any time. I guess Xiang Yan must be here. If our army wants to enter the Chu territory, it will definitely divide its troops into two groups. Let's use it to our advantage."

"Pingyu is the headquarters of Xiang Yan's army this time. I think all the soldiers, horses and food must have passed through this city. And behind Pingyu is Xiangdi. The Xiangdi is thousands of miles away and is enough to support the Chu army and supply food and grass."

"Once we have someone attacking Pingyu, for the Chu army, it means cutting off food and grass. Upon hearing this, the Chu army will definitely be determined to go back. At this time, it is a good opportunity for us to counterattack."

"But Pingyu has Xiang Di behind him, and Xiang Yan must have prepared troops in other cities. Our army does not have the advantage in numbers. Once the Chu army wants to fight back, our soldiers will probably be buried in the belly of the fish. Therefore, those who attack Pingyu, You must not be obsessed with fighting. Once you see the enemy coming, retreat immediately. Who do you two generals think is qualified for such a thing?"

The person who originally planned to raid Pingyu was Li Xin.

However, Prince Fusu did not tell General Li Xin before, asking him to retreat before attacking.

Li Xin still feels confused and his throat is tight.

He wanted to capture several cities, but why was it so difficult?

But Fusu is the prince and the general appointed by the king. Since Fusu said such words, he had to go even if he was unhappy.
