Chu and Han contend for the throne

Chapter 392: Offensive and Defensive Trends
On the banks of the Surabaya River, the battlefield situation is gradually reversing.

Han Xin is worthy of being a master of military strategists. His reputation of being invincible and galloping for decades is by no means blown out. He has just appeared on the nest cart, and he has not even issued any military orders. The soldiers of the army immediately burst into cheers like a mountain roar and a tsunami, and morale also recovered.

When Han Xin took over the command power, he immediately commanded the coalition forces to launch a fierce attack on the Chu army.

Because of the appearance of Han Xin, the morale of the coalition forces rose to the extreme. Facing the tide-like onslaught of the coalition forces, Bi Shu, who had taken over the command from Yu Ziqi, had no choice but to order the entire army to shrink and put up a posture of full defense, because at this time The coalition forces are gaining momentum, and it is not wise to attack them.

On the towering nest car, Bi Shu is issuing military orders one by one.

Facing Han Xin again, Bi Shu was much calmer than three years ago. Han Xin's commanding skills are still so profound, and the Qi army's offensive is still so fierce and tricky, but Bi Shu has also grown up. No matter how Han Xin directs and dispatches, no matter how No matter how tricky the Qi army organizes an offensive, it will be calmly resolved by Bi Shu.

Although the formation of the Chu army was shrinking, it was not in chaos at all.

Xi Qilie took a deep breath and said to Bi Shu: "As expected of Han Xin, he turned the tide of the entire battlefield with his own strength. This appeal, this commanding accomplishment, is really amazing!"

Master Zi Che frowned deeply, and said in a deep voice: "But no matter how strong Han Xin's appeal is, and how profound his commanding skills are? Han Xin should be very clear that in terms of commanding skills alone, the general is not inferior to him at all. Don't worry. Seeing that the coalition forces have the upper hand now, but it is wishful thinking to really defeat our army!"

Yu Ziqi said: "Obviously, Han Xin has left behind!"

Bi Shu said with a smile: "Han Xin is waiting, waiting for his other surprise soldier to surprise him."

"Another way of surprise soldiers?" Yu Ziqi, Zi Cheshi, and Xi Qilie's expressions changed slightly, "In addition to the ambushes who raided the camp, Han Xin actually arranged another way of ambushes?"

Few people in the army knew about Bi Shu's arrangement in Fuli. Even a heavy general like Yu Ziqi only knew that the Huben Army in Jinxiang was missing. They thought that the Huben Army was lying in ambush nearby. Will be the decisive force in the decisive battle in front of him at a critical moment, but he doesn't know that Bi Shu has other arrangements.

"Yes, Han Xin also arranged another ambush." ​​Bi Shu nodded lightly, and said, "However, what this ambush is about to bring him is not a surprise, but bad news!" Having said this, Bi Shu suddenly turned slightly With his head, his distant and deep gaze seemed to have crossed dozens of miles of void and landed on the low Fuli City.

Fu Li, the war has ended.

Although the [-] Qi Army is the most elite imperial army in Qi State, no matter how elite it is, it is impossible to compare with the Huben Army. Whether it is equipment, training, or the quality of individual soldiers, the Huben Army must surpass the Qi State Imperial Army by a large margin. The key is The Imperial Army of Qi had been fighting fiercely under Fuli City for half a day, consuming a lot of physical strength and energy.

Jin Xiang split the Qi Army Colonel in front of him in half with a knife, and when he looked around, he saw that the Qi Army had completely collapsed and was fleeing all over the mountains and plains, while his Huben Army was chasing and killing everywhere!Wiping the body of Captain Qi with a horizontal knife vigorously, wiping off the blood stains on the knife, Jin Xiang turned and walked down the low tower.

Faced with such a result, Jin Xiang had to admire Bi Shu's ingenious calculation.

It is reasonable for Bi Shu to strictly order the Huben army not to attack until noon, because Bi Shu has considered very well. With Fu Li's city wall less than two feet (four meters) low, under the onslaught of Qi's army, Tie Dan The [-] defenders in the army can almost hold out until noon, that is to say, when the Huben army attacked, the Qi army was in sight of victory.

The Qi army turned from victory to adversity. The feeling of falling from a high altitude into a deep ravine is not pleasant. Even the most determined veterans will inevitably lose their fighting spirit. In addition, the Qi army has been fighting for half a day, and their physical strength is exhausted. However, the Huben army has been recharging their energy for a long time, and the final result is self-evident.

In the end, the Huben Army defeated the Qi Imperial Army almost without bloodshed!

If the Huben army had attacked an hour earlier, Tie Dan and most of the defenders could have been saved, but at that time, the Imperial Army of Qi had not seen the dawn of victory, and the psychological gap would not be great when they were flanked by the Huben army. It will be too big. At that time, there will definitely be a fierce battle between the forbidden army of Qi State and the Huben army. The price that the Huben army will pay will never be just 3000 people.

In other words, Bi Shu traded Tie Dan and three thousand soldiers in exchange for more elite tigers who were determined to sacrifice. This deal is absolutely worth it!However, Jin Xiang still couldn't accept Bi Shu's cold-bloodedness. If he was leading the army, he would rather sacrifice more Huben troops than save Tie Dan and the defenders of Fuli City.

In Jin Xiang's view, this is not a question of whether it is worth it or not, but the trust and support between brothers and Pao Ze!
Today you refuse to save Tiedan, so tomorrow, will others refuse to save you too?It would be too cruel if everyone only considers the interests, without the slightest brotherhood and love for robes. Jin Xiang does not want his Huben army to become a ruthless army, not at all.

Looking at the corpses of the Chu army on the top of the city, under the horse road, and lying on the ground inside and outside the city gate, Jin Xiang couldn't help but clenched a pair of big iron fists. I have accumulated strength, but I, Jin Xiang, will never be grateful to you for this, let alone regard you as... robes!

Half an hour later, Bi Shu received the news from Jinxiang.

Hearing that the Huben Army had defeated the Imperial Army of Qi State in Fuli, Yu Ziqi, Zi Cheshi, and Xi Qilie were all excited.

"Han Xin is so insidious, he even wanted to sneak attack on our grain storage base." Xi Qilie said, "Fortunately, the general was prepared and ambushed the Huben army outside Fuli City early, otherwise, this time, we will be in big trouble .”

Zi Cheshi obviously thought farther than Xi Qilie, and said: "General, the imperial army of Qi State has been defeated. After the news spreads, the coalition forces will inevitably lose their morale. Why don't you give the order to fight back and defeat Han Xin at this time!"

"No." But Bi Shu waved his hand, and said calmly, "Han Xin will not let this news spread, and no one will believe us if we send people to shout, so we will only defend today's battle, not attack!"

##########
The offensive of the coalition forces became more and more fierce, but the Chu army remained motionless like a rock.

Ying Bu wiped the sweat from his forehead, turned his head and said to Han Xin: "King Qi, the tenacity of the Chu army is beyond imagination. The coalition forces have been attacking fiercely for almost two hours, and they have not yet shown any sign of defeat!"

"It doesn't matter." Han Xin waved his hand and said, "No matter how stubborn the Chu army is, it will eventually show its flaws."

"Really." Ying Bu's heart moved slightly, and he said, "Dare to ask King Qi, when will the Chu army show its flaws?"

Han Xin smiled slightly, and said: "Don't worry, King Huainan, when it's time to show your flaws, the Chu army will naturally show their flaws."

Seeing that Han Xin was so confident, Ying Bu didn't say anything more, but he was very curious in his heart, what kind of backhand did Han Xin have left behind?

Seeing that Yingbo was suffering, Zhao Yan couldn't help but said: "King Huainan, my king has sent General Cao Yu to lead [-] elite forbidden troops to attack Fuli City, which is an important food storage area for the Chu army. , Burning down the Chu army’s food and supplies, the Chu army’s morale will naturally fluctuate, and at that time, how can the Chu army not show its flaws?”

"Oh?" Yingbo said awe-inspiringly, "The king of Qi has a fortune teller, I admire you."

As soon as Yingbu finished speaking, there was a sudden sound of horseshoes under the nest cart. When everyone leaned out of the guardrail and looked down, they saw a fast horse coming like flying, and on the horse was a man in a blood-soaked war robe. The general of the Qi army, the general of the Qi army roared loudly while galloping his horse, he had already reached the nest cart, and he didn't intend to slow down at all.

Everyone's hearts sank suddenly, and Han Xin also faintly had a bad premonition.

Soon, the general of the Qi army was sent to the nest car by the Qi army in a hanging basket. Seeing Han Xin, the general Qi fell to his knees, fisted with both hands and said tragically: "My lord, it's over, it's over..."

Han Xin's face turned pale instantly, and his thin body shook slightly.

The prince Han He who was standing next to him hurried forward half a step and reached out to help Han Xin, but was blocked by Han Xin. At that moment, Han Xin asked the general of Qi, "Tell me slowly, as long as there are widows around, will the sky of Da Qi fall?" come down."

"Here!" General Qi responded tragically, and told the story of the battle of Fuli.

After hearing General Qi's narration, the faces of Ying Bu, Kuai Che, Zhao Yan, Han He, and Xue Ou all changed drastically.

"What? The Chu army actually left an ambush in Fuli, or the most elite Huben army?!"

"How is this possible?! Could it be that Bi Shu had expected that my king would send surprise troops to attack Fu Li?!"

"This is troublesome. General Cao Yu and the [-] imperial troops have lost all of them. Da Qi has already lost his spirit. The battle of Huainan will be unpredictable..."

Han Xin was unmoved at all, and said coldly, "What are you panicking about?"

Zhao Yan, Han He, and Xue Ou who were whispering were silent, and Ying Bu also looked embarrassed.

Han Xin looked around the crowd indifferently, and said: "The surprise attack on Fu Li is just one of the widow's many methods. Even if you miss it, it has nothing to do with the overall situation. It is indeed a pity that Cao Yu and the 10,000 imperial troops were defeated, but I am still in Daqi. With 10,000+ troops, plus [-]+ Huainan troops, the coalition forces still have the advantage in terms of strength."

Yingbo frowned and said, "But King Qi, it seems that there is no need to continue today's battle, right?"

Yingbo is not stupid, Cao Yu's ambush has been defeated, and the coalition forces have no hope of winning today's battle.

Han Xin nodded, and ordered: "Send the order to seal the news of Cao Yu's defeat, but you can't retreat now, you have to continue to attack the Chu army, and then retreat after dark."
