Qiang Qin

The Chu army was defeated by the chasm.

Even the Overlord Xiang Yu was defeated in this battle.

Li Yuan ordered the corpse of Xiang Yu's head to be restrained, and then found a few former Xiang's soldiers among the captives, and escorted them to Pengcheng.It is conceivable that when Xiang Yu's body is sent to Pengcheng, the capital of Chu, what kind of huge waves will be stirred up, and Xichu, which has lost the support of Zhitian, is bound to fall into violent turmoil.

before death.

They are rivals who face each other and will never die.

after death.

That is the strange way of two worlds drifting apart.

As for Xiang Yu, when he slayed himself, he yelled that Xing Tianwu was a relative, and that he wanted to fight Li Yuan again on Huangquan Road. For the soul, it is the age of science and technology after 2000, and he usually does not believe in ghosts and gods at all. Li Yuan, there is almost no threat.

On Huangquan Road, go all the way.

In this era of chaotic times, heroes are always the only ones, and heroes are also the loneliest. In the days without Xiang Yu and Liu Bang, Li Yuan's eyes will pay more attention to the two strong men of different races in the south and the north .

Zhao Tuo of South Vietnam.

Hun Modun.

On the battlefield of the king's hegemony, there will never be a lack of the next challenger.

——.

Chu State lost its most important leader.

However, the chasm was just a battlefield where Qin and Chu fought. Almost at the same time when Li Yuan and Xiang Yu were fighting fiercely, another melee between the Qin and Chu armies was being staged on the northern Qi battlefield. Different from the confrontation in the gap, the two sides in the battle on the same ground tend to use the method of mobile warfare to show their abilities and existence.

Originally, according to Xiang Yu's vision, except for the confrontation with the Qin army at Honggou, Zhonglimei's more than [-] Changshan troops would sweep across the Qin territory from the Zhao area, and finally cross the river from the Sanchuan County area to attack the back of the Qin army. But it ended because of Ji Xin's outstanding performance in the Battle of Handan.

Except Zhongli Meijun.Xiang Zhuang, a rising star in the Chu army and most likely to be Xiang Yu's successor, led more than [-] Chu troops northward to Qi, trying to contain the Qin army in Yan.

As for the Qin army, the general of the Qin army who commanded this battle was the famous general Han Xin who was stationed in Yandi.This rogue young man in Huaiyin, Donghai County, Chudi, has grown into a resourceful and decisive general in the Qin army after many battles. Especially during the year of guarding Yandi, Han Xin In the case of the state of Chu in the south, the Xiongnu in the north, and the remnants of anti-Qin forces in the interior.A Qin Army Yandi Army composed of [-] soldiers and more than [-] auxiliary soldiers was formed.

The existence of this field force made it unnecessary for Qin to mobilize troops from Jiuyuan and Guanzhong on the long border. The second battlefield, thus threatening the hinterland of Chu State.

This time the Chu army attacked Qin.

As soon as Li Yuan's order came, Han Xin quickly led [-] Qin troops southward from Ji County.The rest of the generals stayed in Yanbei to guard against possible surprise attacks by the Huns. After all, no matter how urgent the war against Chu was.It is not important to let the Huns rush into the hinterland of the Central Plains again.

After Han Xin went south, the Yandi Qin army was handed over to the command of Qin general Yang Wengzi who came from Jiuyuan area half a year ago. Compared with other Qin army generals, Yang Wengzi's name is very strange.However, if you mention him, you should also talk about the most famous general in Qin's war against the Huns: Meng Tian.

In that battle where Meng Tian led 20 Qin troops to drive the Huns out of Hetao.Yang Wengzi served as a former military academy lieutenant, and it can be said that he has made great contributions. If he hadn't been implicated in the Mengtian incident, and he had always been at odds with Wang Li, his position would be far more than just a partial general in the Qin State's frontier army.

The last time Li Yuan toured Yunzhong County and Jiuyuan County, Yang Wengzi was also among the generals of the frontier army. Li Yuan had heard about this frustrated frontier backbone from Meng Hu, and after talking about it, Yang Wengzi was officially included in the list of generals to be tested by Li Yuan.

With this transfer, Yang Wengzi officially broke away from the frontier army system, and like Meng Hu, he became a general under Li Yuan's command capable of conquering battles.

mid-July.

It only took Han Xinjun three days to fight all the way from Yishui to Jishui, almost penetrating through the northern border of Chu State.

It was precisely because of Han Xin's swift action that Xiang Yu had to give up his strategy of attacking Qin's eastern border with all his strength, and let Xiang Zhuang lead his troops to the Qilu area to counter the advance of Han Xin's army. Facing Xiang Zhuang, Han Xin showed a The grandeur of the masters of the art of war.

It took Xiang Yu a total of five years to conquer Qi. During these five years, Tian Rong, Tian Jiao, Tian Heng and others representing the clan power of the Qi State came and went one after another, making Xiang Yu go back and forth on the road to Qi Qi again and again, all the way to Tian Heng. After being killed, Qi Di's resistance finally came to an end.

However, Qi people's deep disapproval of Chu people still exists.

During this year, Han Xin sent scouts and crops to Qidi many times, and had many contacts with the resistance forces in Qidi. This time he went south, it can be said that he had planned for a long time and was well prepared.

In contrast, Chu's conquest of Qidi is only on the surface, but Xiang Zhuang has indeed made great progress in military command. Faced with Han Xin's repeated provocations, Xiang Zhuang remained unmoved. The generals of the army stood dead on the Puyang Ferry by the Jishui River, but did not move a step, which made the Qin army's expectation of directly taking Pengcheng come to naught.

With Xiang Zhuang's ability, it is really difficult to suppress the Qin army with nearly twice as many people as his side alone. Therefore, after the Jishui battle reached a stalemate and Xiang Zhuang continuously asked to join forces, Zhong Limei quickly relieved him. After breaking the siege of Handan, this Chu army also joined the sequence of fighting Han Xin. The Chu army of the two armies formed a tacit understanding and formed a pincer attack on Han Xin's army.

Zhong Limei thought: The Honggou area is closer to Pengcheng, and Xiang Yu personally led the army, not to mention defeating the Qin army. If he persisted, it would be normal for him to be tied within one or two months. In contrast, Xiangzhuang The situation in Xiangzhuang is much more dangerous. The people in Qidi have no strong centripetal force towards Chu State, and Han Xin is a man of many schemes. Although Xiang Zhuang has greatly improved his ability in the past two years, compared with Han Xin , or worse.

Facing the unfavorable situation of interception in front and pursuit of soldiers after interception, Han Xin sent scouts to inform Li Yuan that he asked Peng Yue, a bandit behind Xiangzhuang army, to send troops to harass Xiangzhuang's rear. The Chu army started a decisive battle.Instead, they were broken up into pieces, and small troops of the Qin Army went down to counties, townships, and pavilions in Qi. Fathers of the land.

The Chu army came aggressively, but it was useless because they couldn't find an opponent. Zhong Limei had no choice but to use a small army to deal with the Qin army's small army, but his Changshan disciples were completely unfamiliar with the situation in Qidi. And the Chu soldiers under Xiang Zhuang's command also couldn't find their way.

Without the support of Qi people.The Chu army occupied the favorable terrain in vain, but they could not give full play to their advantages. The two armies continued to fight on a small scale along the Taishan, Mengshan, and Jishui lines.

——.

end of july.

At the most intense moment of the Gap War, Zhong Limei, who had no choice but to attack unsuccessfully, had to cross Jishui and choose to join forces with Xiangzhuang under the circumstances of lack of food and low morale.

Puyang.

Chu army camp.

A dispute about the strategic direction of the Chu army is going on, Zhong Limei and Xiang Zhuang have different analysis opinions on the current battle situation, which makes the two few important generals in the Chu army separate from each other.

"Major General, the Qin army on the north bank of Jishui has now spread all over Qilu. Our army failed to kill them before, and has already lost the wind. The most urgent task now is not to annihilate or recover the land. It is to defend the south bank of Jishui. At the same time, we It is necessary to step up the sweeping of the bandits in Juyeze to ensure that Bawang's central army has a smooth retreat." Zhong Limo was patient.Tell Xiang Zhuang what he has seen and heard, and at the same time, put forward his own suggestions.When Zhong Limei said that.The news of Xiang Yu's death has not yet reached the Chu army camp on the front line of Jishui.

"General Zhongli, you are the ambition of the people of Changqin, destroying the prestige of our great Chu. Xiang Mou, the boy under Han Xin's crotch, has already found out clearly that there are no more than [-] people at best, and most of them are new recruits recruited by Yandi. , if we can't even take down this little enemy army, how can we talk about supporting the Overlord?" Xiang Zhuang said angrily.

As for Han Xin, Xiang Zhuang had some contacts. Back then, when he went in and out of Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu's military camps, it was the tent that Han Xin opened. But Xiang Zhuang is still just a rising star in the Chu army.

The so-called rising star is just to put it nicely.Facing the huge gap, Xiang Zhuang's mentality gradually became unbalanced.

This imbalance became more obvious after Han Xin played "disappearance" again and again and passively avoided the battle. In fact, not only Xiang Zhuang, but also these Chu soldiers under his command also began to doubt the real combat effectiveness of the Qin army.

"Major General, this Han Xin is full of tricks and has won the teachings of Li Yuan. We must not be careless. If we fall into the trap of the Qin people, I will have no chance of winning." Zhong Limei said worriedly.

As soon as Han Xin was mentioned, Zhongli Mo couldn't help feeling regretful.

At that time, Han Xin also had the idea of ​​serving the state of Chu, heeded Zhong Limei's suggestion, and defected to Xiang Liang's command, but he didn't expect that Han Xin could only be a small one with Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu's uncle and nephew. Hold the halberd doctor.

The position of a doctor varies from high to low, and a doctor with a halberd, in other words, is a small officer who guards the tent door, not even a school lieutenant or a captain.Especially after being sent to Guanzhong, General Long Qie of the Chu Army listened to the slander of Fan Zeng, Xiang Bo and others, and he didn't take Han Xin seriously, making it difficult for him in every possible way. bear with it.

On the contrary, Li Yuan of the state of Qin treated Han Xin with the same respect as he had for a national scholar. He not only promoted Han Xin to Weimo, but also handed over the command of the army to a Chu man without any doubt.

What a boldness this is.

Zhong Limei really couldn't imagine what kind of person Li Yuan was, but it was a pity that he had heard his name a hundred times, but he never had the chance to meet him.

"General Zhongli, if you care about your old friendship, you can go back to Pengcheng. However, in order to defeat the enemy in front of you, please hand over the command to Xiang. After victory, you will definitely return it to the general." Xiang Zhuang sneered , said.

"Major General, what are you talking about? Do you suspect that I, Zhong Limo, is collaborating with the enemy?" Zhong Limo said angrily.The implication of Xiang Zhuang's words is to let Zhong Limo hand over his military power, which is more uncomfortable for a general than killing him.

In terms of status in the army, Zhong Limei is now one of the few remaining backbone generals in the Chu army. With his qualifications and experience, he can directly order Xiang Zhuang to follow his orders, but Zhong Limei's personality and experience make him Insufficient confidence, compared with Long Qi's fiery temper and uprightness, Zhong Limei's temper is more composed and forbearing, which makes him adopt gentle persuasion methods instead of fierce confrontation when encountering disputes conflict.

At the same time, the experience of leaving Chu State three years ago and setting up the Changshan Army alone also gave Zhong Limei and his troops a feeling of being out of the order of the Chu Army.

Although Zhongli Mo and his subordinates have made great contributions to the stability of Chu State in the past year, judging from Xiang Zhuang's attitude, Zhongli Moyuan has not won Xiang's trust. In other words, Xiang Yu is probably the only one in Chu who really trusts him. (To be continued..)
