Emperor Qin Ba Shi

Chapter 617 The root of the war against Qin is not in the battle for a city or place, but in the field battle of the army.

But right now, Wang Ben knew that this battle should not have happened. The Qin army in Hu Hai's hands was the last new force of the Great Qin Empire.

Moreover, this is an iron cavalry, with the ability to move quickly and penetrate. With this large army, it can deliver a decisive blow at a critical moment.

As soon as he thought of this, Wang Ben's desire to quickly withdraw the troops from Hu Hai suddenly became heavy.

After all, when the war is at a critical moment, when the enemy and the enemy are evenly matched, a new force of 6 people is enough to turn the tide of the battle.

And the army in the hands of Qin Emperor Hu Hai is a true essence, and it is easy to take on such a task.

With the stick in his hand, Wang Ben drew a line with deep eyes.Regarding the changes in the world situation, he did not discuss with other generals.

Among the Qin army at this moment, all the generals are obedient. He is the backbone of the Qin army, and it can be said that the Qin army shogunate is just a decoration.

"At present, it seems that Han Xin is the most dangerous one. His Majesty must return to Hangu Pass. No matter what, the west of Hangu Pass must not be lost!"

With a decision in his mind, Wang Ben turned his head to Sima, who had just entered the shogunate, and said, "Immediately send an order to His Majesty through the Black Ice Terrace: Let Your Majesty give up the land of Zhao."

"Immediately lead the army, cross Shangdang, go east of the river, enter Lishi Fortress, and join the guard general of Hangu Pass!"

"Yes!"

Seeing that Sima of the Chinese Army was about to leave, Wang Ben gave an order and said, "Tell Your Majesty, King Han Xin of Jibei has broken through Liang County and is in the hinterland of Sanchuan County. The soldiers will threaten Hangu Pass at any time."

Wang Ben knew in his heart that only by telling Hu Hai the seriousness of the matter, could Hu Hai give up fighting Li Zuoche, and then lead the army straight into Guanzhong.

"Yes."

……

As soon as Sima of the Chinese army left, General Bai Shu walked in, but at this moment, Bai Shu's face was not relaxed at all, but extremely dignified.

"General Bai, what happened?" Wang Ben's sense of smell is very keen, as soon as Bai Shu walked in, he sensed the depression on Bai Shu's body.

"General, Xiang Yu accompanied others to send a letter of war. He wants to have a showdown with the general in front of Zhiyuan Pass tomorrow!" Bai Shu said to Wang Ben with a respectful expression.

"Ben will know!"

With a slight nod of his head, Wang Ben knew that the news of Li Zuoche's return must have reached Xiang Yu's ears, and this was Xiang Yu's counterattack.

As a result, Wang Ben glanced at the war letter in Bai Shu's hand, and a gleam flashed in his eyes.

This opportunity is what Xiang Yu needs, why not what he needs, hundreds of thousands of troops, even millions of people, gathered in Sanchuan County.

No matter whether it is Xiang Yu or Wang Ben, they all know that it is not good for anyone to continue to procrastinate.

The opportunity for this battle was actually something that both sides longed for. When Wang Ben saw the letter of war, he decided to agree.

"General Bai, tell the envoys of the Chu army that I have agreed, and the winner will be determined in the battle tomorrow!" Wang Ben's eyes flashed murderous intent, and he no longer had any doubts in his heart.

Because before that, he had already arranged the overall situation properly. With Emperor Qin and Li Bi, even if he was defeated at Zhiyuan Pass, it would not lead to the demise of the Great Qin Empire.

For a while, Wang Ben felt confident!
He has entrusted Hu Hai and Li Bi with regard to the follow-up of the Great Qin Empire, and all he needs to think about at this moment is how to fight.

And in this battle, win the battle!
At this moment, both the Qin army and the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces have the idea of ​​accomplishing their merits in one battle.

Xiang Yu's back is Han Xin, and Wang Ben's back is Hu Hai. This battle is a battle between the four most outstanding commanders on the Central Plains.

"Your Majesty, the chief general of the Qin Army, Wang Ben, accepted the letter of challenge and agreed to fight our army at noon tomorrow!" Xiang Yu nodded at the news from the messenger.

"Okay, you go down and rest, this king knows!"

Xiang Yu has full confidence in breaking through the Yuanyuan Pass, because he is confident that he will not lose to anyone in the art of war.

In history, the victory or defeat of a war has never been only about equipment.

Xiang Yu knew very well in his heart that the root of the war to attack Qin was not in the battle for the fortifications in one city and one place, but in the field battle of the army.

As long as the main force of General Wang Ben's Qin army is wiped out in one fell swoop, the city of Sanchuan County will become an undefended treasury of wealth.

Although they don't have large equipment, as long as Wang Ben is defeated, Luoyang and other places are also within easy reach.

First field battles and then taking the city is called taking the city in a field battle.

Xiang Yu highly respected this kind of tactics, which was created by Bai Qi, Lord Wu'an of the Great Qin Empire.

In history, Lord Wu'an Bai Qi fought more than a hundred battles, beheading more than [-] enemies and dozens of cities in each battle, which can be said to have vividly demonstrated the method of capturing cities in field battles.

Xiang Yu knows better than anyone else that if one city is attacked, the autumn wind will never have the power to sweep away the fallen leaves.

And this time he destroys Qin, he intends to imitate Lord Wu'an Baiqi and defeat the main force of the Qin Empire and the elites of the Shandong kingdoms at once.

At that time, looking at the world, no one or any force can prevent Xichu from unifying the Central Plains.

Xiang Yu thinks highly of himself, in his opinion, what Bai Qi could do back then, Xiang Yu could also do.

At this time, the distant city of Xianyang saw another scene. The news that Qin Emperor Hu Hai had invaded Zhao and besieged Handan had already spread to Xianyang.

When the news came, the Daqin government and the public were in a state of extreme excitement.

The news that Emperor Qin invaded Zhao and besieged Handan surprised and delighted the officials of the Great Qin Empire. The whole country was uneasy because all the soldiers were facing each other at Huanyuan Pass.

And the depression was swept away, and he suddenly cheered up.

"Left Prime Minister, Your Majesty's siege of Handan, although it is just a move, but it is a powerful pillar for the people of the country!"

Right Prime Minister Kuai Che's eyes flashed brightly, and he said to Ziying, "I thought we should announce it to the world immediately to inspire the hearts of the army and the people!"

"Only our Great Qin Empire is united, and our army will win this battle!"

"Look, Taiwei?" After a while, Ziying said to Wei Liao.

At this time, Wei Liao was the most powerful and prestigious in the court, after all, Emperor Qin and General Wang Ben were both on the battlefield.

Although Ziying agrees in his heart, he also needs the consent of Wei Liao and others.

"Left Prime Minister, Right Prime Minister's words are true. Your Majesty led an army to attack Zhao and besieged Handan. You should announce it to the world!"

Wei Liao twirled his beard, and said: "Your Majesty is the emperor, and he is still fighting for the Great Qin. Such news can inspire people to the greatest extent!"

"it is good--!"

Zuoxiang Ziying, Right Chancellor Kuaiche, and Taiwei Weiliao and other high-ranking ministers had a discussion, and immediately sent letters to the counties and counties, announcing the great news to the government and the public.

After all, doing so can unite people's hearts in this mighty war.
