"Report to the Overlord, our army lost nearly 5000 troops a day today, and [-] soldiers were injured, but Sanchuan City was still unable to conquer. Although the Qin people in the city suffered casualties, they were still able to hold the top of the city. The Chu army can't attack."

"Report to the Overlord, our army's equipment has been severely depleted by the successive days of attacking the fortification. It's also sold out."

"Report to the Overlord, the food in the army is only enough for three days, and now some soldiers have learned about the shortage of food."

"Report to the Overlord..." Although these words have passed for a long time, Xiang Yu's mind has been troubled by these unfavorable information. No matter how he led his troops to kill him, he was still resisted by the Qin people, and then he was repelled.The Chu army has spent several days here, but it is still difficult to advance an inch. This seriously hit the morale of the Chu army, and even Xiang Yu had already given up the idea of ​​​​giving up on attacking the city.But Xiang Yu also knew that these three rivers and the Hangu Pass behind him were the only way to enter Xianyang. If they were not captured, his troops would not be able to kill Xianyang City. The Qin army's determination to resist will inevitably be shaken, and the cities behind will be much easier to fight. "The land of Qin is indeed easy to defend and difficult to attack. No wonder the coalition forces of the six countries were so difficult for the people of Qin. Apart from the disunity of the six countries, the geographical advantage of the Qin people is also the most important reason." Xiang Yu looked at the hanger. The crude map on the wall, while thinking about the way to break the city, sighed at the same time.

At this time, a soldier opened the door curtain and walked in, saying: "Overlord, there is news from the scouts at the rear."

In order to prevent the reinforcements from the Qin people from attacking from behind without knowing it, Xiang Yu sent dozens of scouts to the back of dozens of miles before attacking the city, keeping an eye on the situation there at all times.Now hearing the news from there, Xiang Yu's already heavy heart sank a bit: "Let him come in and talk to me face to face."

The scout was dressed in common people's clothes, which were still covered with dust, but when he saw Xiang Yu, he ignored his demeanor and hurriedly said: "The situation of the overlord is not good. A Qin army with thousands of people appeared fifty miles away from here. Look! Their formation should be the vanguard of the Qin army, and there should be many Qin people behind."

Xiang Yu frowned suddenly, and after a long silence, he asked, "What's the formation and attire of that team?"

The scout said: "Although we can see that they have traveled a long distance, their military appearance is quite neat, and they should be the elite of the Qin army. It's just because we dare not get too close to them, so we can't see what they are wearing. .”

"You go down." After Xiang Yu let the man go down, he walked to the map, pointed his finger at the place where he said he found the Qin people, and then rowed along the road to where he was. When he reached a mountain pass , his hand stopped slightly.He seemed to have made a decision, and said to the outside: "Come here, call General Xiang Bo, and tell him that I have a task to give to him."

Zhang Han came towards Sanchuan with 5000 troops at the fastest speed. This was a decision he made after discussing with Meng Tian.Because although the 5 horses led by Meng Tian rested for a few days, after all, they were not long after the battle, and many soldiers had not recovered, so the marching speed of the 5 horses was not fast enough.In the end, Zhang Han took the initiative to ask Ying to bring the most elite thousands of troops as a pioneer, and Meng Tian brought his troops to follow.This is the way they finally decided when they arrived in Hedong and found that there was no Chu army staying behind.Because judging from the situation in Hedong, Meng Tian and the others can already judge that the Chu army is only focusing on attacking Xianyang instead of taking the city of Qin State steadily. In this way, there will be no obstacles on the way. There will be no major trouble.As for after seeing the Chu army, Zhang Han's 5000 troops were only used as a check, and they were not expected to have a real battle with the Chu army. It is impossible to realize the idea of ​​​​attacking Xianyang.

With such an important mission on his shoulders, Zhang Han naturally did not dare to neglect, and ordered the army to move forward at full speed along the way, and he did not let the soldiers rest until the army was very tired.In this way, the [-] pioneers and the tens of thousands of Chinese troops behind them had a distance of several days.Seeing that all the way there was only an empty city, and there was still no trace of the Chu army in Sanchuan, Zhang Han couldn't help but began to worry: "Could it be that my Daqin really didn't care about the Chu army who fled here?" Did you have the strength to fight back? Let them kill all the way here. Behind is Hangu Pass, the last barrier of my Great Qin."

Just when Zhang Han was worried, the scouts in front also brought news: "General, judging from the dusty situation ahead, the Chu army should still be fighting my guards at Sanchuan City."

Hearing this, Zhang Han quickly raised his hands and ordered the whole army to stop: "Order the scouts to go forward and investigate carefully, and must inquire about the situation in Sanchuan City. The others rest here first. If the Chu army is really here , we will be discovered by them if we go up again, we are still unable to compete with the Chu army in terms of military strength, we must win with wisdom."

Two hours later, the scouts came to report: "General, the Chu army is indeed attacking our Sanchuan City. Judging by the lineup, there should be [-] to [-] troops."

Zhang Han nodded, and no longer let the army continue to advance, but ordered the 5000 troops to stay fifty miles away from Sanchuan.

At noon the next day, the Qin army began to advance towards Sanchuan. Zhang Han also ordered everyone to dismount and walk to save horsepower, which puzzled the soldiers.It turned out that he wanted to use cavalry to launch a surprise attack on the rear of the Chu army when the Chu army was not prepared, and after killing them by surprise, he retreated to the side and contacted the defenders in the city. Contain the Chu army.As soon as the reason was mentioned, those soldiers of the Qin army would naturally not raise any objections, and just like that, the five thousand elite Qin army quietly went to the Chu army.

When they came to a mountain pass less than twenty miles away from Sanchuan, the sun had already set to the west.Zhang Han said: "Very well, if we suddenly kill the Chu army when they are burying the pot for cooking, the shock to the Chu people will be greater." Famous generals.

But at this moment, suddenly there was a booming sound from the high place above the mountain pass, dozens of huge stones rolled down, and came straight to the middle of the Qin army. Along with the stones came Manshan soldiers of the Chu army.

Qin Jun never thought that there would be an ambush by the Chu army here, and hundreds of people were caught off guard by huge boulders.When encountering this surprise attack, the Qin army couldn't help but panic, and at this time the Chu army on the mountain had already taken advantage of the situation and killed them. The lost Qin army completely lost the ability to resist when they saw the number of Chu troops shouting and killing them. In a short while, nearly half of the troops were killed by the Chu army.The rest of the Qin army was finally brought together by Zhang Han, and fought and retreated continuously.

The Chu army has been chased and beaten by the Qin army these days, and the attack on Sanchuan has been frustrated again and again. A resentment towards the Qin people has already accumulated in his heart. How can he easily let go of this great opportunity at this time, so They chased after the retreating Qin Jun, and kept slashing and stabbing at Qin Jun with their knives and guns.

However, the Qin army lost the opportunity and suffered a disadvantage in terms of strength. They could only be passively beaten. Under Zhang Han's order, they could only jump on their horses and gallop backward.Even so, only a thousand Qin soldiers escaped, and the others became the souls of the Chu army.

It turned out that the purpose of Xiang Yu to find Bo Xiang was to let him bring troops to ambush at this mountain pass, so that the Qin army that came to help was caught off guard. It is ridiculous that the Qin army still thought that he could surprise the Chu army.In order to ensure the state of his men and horses during the raid and grasp the time well, Zhang Han also let his men and horses rest in front for one night, which gave Xiang Bo more time to fully prepare. Shipped up.

When Xiang Bo returned to the camp of the Chu army with the weapons and horses of the Qin army, Xiang Yu was overjoyed and said hello repeatedly, but then he frowned again. But it can be judged that the people of Qin should have completely controlled Chu land, and in this way, they will come to deal with him one after another, and their time is running out. "Once the Qin army's brigade arrives, it will be even more impossible for us to capture Sanchuan, and we will even be unable to retreat completely. What should we do?" Xiang Yu looked at the generals and asked.

When he said this, the generals who were still a little bit happy also lost their smiles. Only then did they realize that their situation had not changed because of repelling one of the Qin troops.A general said: "From the general's point of view, Sanchuan City is indeed easy to defend and difficult to attack. As long as we can occupy this city, then we still have the ability to deal with the Qin people."

Xiang Yu smiled wryly and said: "But now we have been besieging the city for several days, and there is no sign of Sanchuan City being breached at all. How can we use this city to fight against the Qin people?"

When the general looked at the booty brought by Xiang Bo, he suddenly had a bold idea, and whispered to Xiang Yu and the other generals, who nodded repeatedly, thinking that his idea could indeed be tried.Finally, Xiang Yu said: "This is indeed a good way to take the Sanchuan City, then you can lead the troops according to your plan, and all the horses in our army can be chosen by you."

The man hurriedly said: "The last general obeys the orders, the last general will live up to the overlord's entrustment!"
