Overlord of the late Qin Dynasty

Chapter 191 The Death of Wu Guang ([-])

"The final general thought that he could send a troop to recover Nanyang County, while the rest of the troop would go to Sanchuan to destroy Wu Guang, who followed the Chen Sheng uprising and is now Zhang Chu's false king. This will weaken Zhang Chu's momentum and deter the thieves who are entrenched in Wei, Zhao, Yanqi and other places. Moreover, going to Sanchuan to destroy Wu Guang can avoid fighting Xiang Yu who has already occupied Hengshan County. You know, Xiang Yu's subordinates are all the elites of my Great Qin, and you can't easily fight him before the Northern Army has yet to go south!" Su Jiao clasped his hands carefully Zhang Han suggested.

Su Jiao couldn't be careless, after all, Xiang Yu was just like him, a general from the Northern Legion.Moreover, after Xiang Yu became the commander of the navy, he transferred many elite soldiers from the northern army to the navy from Ying Zheng.It can be said that Xiang Yu currently has more than 20 people, at least tens of thousands of them are veterans of the former Northern Army.

Zhang Han originally thought the same way, but he didn't dare to say that he was afraid that the general in the army would say that he was afraid of Xiang Yu.Now that Su Jiao spoke first, he said without hesitation: "What General Su said is reasonable!"

Seeing that Zhang Han actually agreed to Su Jiao's suggestion, all the generals had to think seriously, although they were a little bit disapproving.

"At present, our army can only strangle Zhang Chu, Chen Sheng and other thieves first, and then gather the northern army to attack Xiang Yu with the momentum of a big victory! This can ensure that we will not lose the battle under absolute strength and will not damage the army's prestige!" Zhang Han looked around. The generals in the tent continued to speak when they saw that everyone was thinking.

After hearing what Zhang Han said, everyone recovered from their thinking and listened to Zhang Han's decision.

"Therefore! This general decided that Li Ye would lead [-] troops to recover Nanyang County. The rest of the troops followed this general to Sanchuan, and helped Zhao Ben, the county captain of Sanchuan County, strangle Wu Guang!" Seeing that the generals had recovered, Zhang Han was decisive. The one who stood up ordered.

"Here!" All the generals stood up and bowed their hands to accept orders.

Zhao Qu, the captain sent by Zhao Gao, led troops to garrison Wuguan. This Zhao Qu was Zhao Ben's brother, and he didn't even know that Zhao Ben had defected to Zhao Gao.Since being transferred back to Guowei Mansion together with Su Jiao, he has served as a titular captain. He is really happy to be transferred to take over the position of Wuguan captain today.But he didn't know that he got the actual post of commander because of his younger brother Zhao Ben, and he thought it was Hu Hai and Zhao Gao who sent him here because of his martial arts talent.

More than [-] Qin troops came out of Wuguan, and the entire Kanto was shaken.

Soon, the army 5 miles east of Wuguan was divided into two groups. One group of 30 people was led by the fake general Li Ye to attack Nanyang, and the remaining [-] people marched north into Sanchuan County.

But Song Yi said that since he didn't want to join Xiang Yu, he lived in fear every day, fearing that Xiang Yu would send Cao Shen, the general stationed in Hengshan County, to lead his troops to attack him.

Under the persuasion of his son Song Xiang and his younger brother Song Yan, Song Yi sent troops north to Nanyang County to occupy Suixiang City, which had not yet been occupied by Zhang Chu.Then they sent people to inquire about the news on the west side of Wuguan, and finally learned that Zhou Wen was killed in battle and Zhang Chujun was defeated, so he went to attack Deng County.Because Zhang Chu's troops in Nanyang County were too few, Song Yi took Deng County with less than [-] troops.Then, taking advantage of no one's attention, Song Yi sent his younger brother to lead [-] troops to attack Shandu County and took Zhuyang County with his own troops.

In less than ten days, Song Yi expanded from a small force occupying township pavilions to a medium-sized force occupying several counties with 2 troops.A group of generals gathered under his command, such as Yan Tong from Shandu, Deng Yi from Deng County, and Zuo Shu from Zhuyang.

Shandu County, as the current central city of the Song Yi Group, has gathered [-] troops.Yan Tong, Deng Yi, Zuo Shu and other newly recruited defectors all followed Song Yi here, while Song Yi's younger brother Song Yan led [-] troops to garrison Zhuyang, and his son led [-] troops to garrison Deng County.

"My lord! This Qin army came too fast!" Yan Tong first told Song Yi the latest information around Wuguan, and then sighed.

"I didn't think of that either!" Song Yi also sighed, and then asked Zuo Shu: "Captain Zuo, how many troops does our army have now?"

"In addition to the original 6000 troops stationed in the city, there are also [-] soldiers and horses who joined and were recruited later. The number of soldiers and horses in Zhuyang City has reached [-], and there are also [-] people in Deng County. Our army has now reached Thirty-one thousand, you can fight against the [-] Qin army left in Nanyang!" Zuo Shu cupped his hands to report once, and then told the total number of troops.

"It's true that more than 3 people can compete with the Qin army for a while, but it will hurt our army!" Song Yi said in embarrassment, frowning.

Song Yi was undoubtedly overjoyed to grow from a few thousand people to more than 3 in less than ten days.But thinking of fighting against the most powerful Qin army, Song Yi had some intention of retreating because his future was bleak.

"Although many brothers will die in battle, as long as the lord can fight the Qin army, it will definitely bring you great prestige! If you can defeat the Qin army, the lord will be able to shock Nanyang and other places. At that time, the warriors everywhere In the long run, it is necessary to fight the Qin army!" Seeing Song Yi's hesitant expression, Zuo Shu clasped his hands and talked eloquently.

"My lord! Don't hesitate anymore! Give the order!" Yan Tong and Deng Yi also stood up and begged for orders.

"Okay! No matter what happens in the future, since I met the Qin army, I will fight them well. Let's see why I, the Chu people, lost to the Qin people!" Song Yi saw the servants and generals under his command. They all agreed to fight the Qin army, stood up proudly and decided.

In Danshui County, Li Ye led an army of [-] troops to station here.

After Li Ye led [-] troops to capture Danshui County, the three counties of Neixi County, Rang County, and Li County in Nanyang County defected and surrendered to Li Ye.

In order to appease the people of the three counties and set an example for the magistrates of other counties in Nanyang, Li Ye still appointed these county magistrates of Zhang Chuguo who had surrendered as county magistrates to continue to govern the political side.

After sending several confidantes to the three counties to take over the military power, and recruiting thousands of troops from Danshui County, Li Ye led the army to the south of Mo County.

The county magistrate of Yu County was originally the captain of Zhou Wen's personal army, and he was deeply gracious by Zhou Wen.Knowing that Zhou Wen was beheaded by the Qin army in Guanzhong, he was very angry. After the Qin army entered Nanyang, he recruited soldiers and horses to avenge Zhou Wen.However, this person was brave and foolish, and was soon turned into a ghost under the sword by the mausoleum of the county magistrate in the county.

"General! The Qin army has already arrived, what shall we do?" Wang Ling's lieutenant Wang Shi cupped his hands and asked for instructions.

"With less than 4000 people under my command, it would be unwise to fight the Qin army. Send an order to take away all the food and money that can be brought in the city! We will not fight the Qin army, and evacuate eastward!" Wang Ling thought again and again After that, he gave instructions to Wang Shi.

When Wang Shi was about to hand over his hands and go out, Wang Ling ordered again: "Walk the news that the Qin army will return and kill the people in the city. I want the Qin army to get an empty city when they come! This is my gift to Song Yi in the south." Great gift!"
