Competing

Chapter 146 Three Thousand Heroic Spirits
Julu, also known as Julu, is located on the north bank of Zhangshui River, northeast of Handan, the former capital of Zhao State.Because of its unique geographical location, it has always been a military hub.

"Reading History and Fangyu Minutes" records that the land of Julu "shrinks left and right, spreads wide and open, with rivers and rivers stretching across the border, and sand flooding down to rivers and seas". "Jifu Tongzhi" said: "It is the channel of Tianxiong Xindu, the thoroughfare of the left and right of the mountains."It can be seen that the strategic location of this place is dangerous.

At the end of the Qin Dynasty, Chen Sheng and Daze Township rebelled against Qin. They sent military officials as generals, and Zhang Er and Chen Yu as captains to pacify Zhao.Later, Wuchen was beheaded by his subordinate Li Liang, who defected to Zhang Han and led the Qin army to break Handan.

Chen Yu, Zhang Er and others welcomed Zhao Xie, a nobleman of Zhao State, as king, and resisted the attack of Zhang Han's army.

Qin generals Zhang Han and Wang Li immediately besieged Julu with an army of 40!General Xiang Yu of the Chu State who came to the rescue ordered Yin Xu and Lu Chen to be the vanguard, and crossed the Zhang River first to attack the Qin army's grain road.However, in fact, Yin Xu's actions were a bit special, a bit risky, and he went directly to Julu City...

Approaching Julu City, Yin Xu discovered that there are always many unexpected things. Although he has made enough mental preparations, he knows that Julu City will be a fierce battle.But he didn't expect that the level of this vicious battle was much higher than expected. Zhang Han sent two generals, Sima Xin and Dong Yi, and mobilized [-] troops to encircle and suppress him.

General Yin took a deep breath, it seemed that he was too arrogant, and somewhat underestimated Zhang Han's determination.The original plan was a bit risky, but in order to attract Qin Jun's attention, he exchanged time for Lu Chen to attack the corridor.It is certain to start a war with the Qin army, and it is very likely that it will be a fierce battle, but I didn't expect Zhang Han to put up such a big battle, and he must stay behind!
Just now he was boasting in front of Lu Chen that Xiaoqiang, who claimed to be unbeatable, is in the form of this meeting...

Seeing that the situation was not good, Yin Xu immediately led his people to escape, and rushed out to break out of the siege before the Qin army encircled him.Anyway, the purpose of attracting Qin Jun's attention has been achieved. Is General Yin just waiting to die?We must evacuate as soon as possible, even if the Qin army is chasing after us, we can still resist.If someone makes dumplings, it will be difficult to stand out.

But where to break out?

One is to go directly to Julu City and find a way to let Zhao Jun take him into the city.The second is to go around the west and head north of Julu City.There are reinforcements from Yanzhao and Hebei, and the nearest one is General Chen Yu of the State of Zhao, who still has more than 1 people under his command.According to the previous agreement, after Lu Chen attacked the corridor, he would rush to meet there.At that time, it would be the best if the soldiers and horses of the three routes can join forces in one place.

On balance, Yin Xu chose the second option, he was not willing to hide in Julu City.Just when he was making meritorious deeds on the battlefield, he was trapped in an isolated city. Wouldn't it be a waste of a great opportunity?What's more, when the army enters the city, the pressure on the supply of food and grass will definitely be much greater, and the effect may be counterproductive.Don't be afraid of what happens, just be afraid of [-]. If the Qin army is given an opportunity to take the opportunity to break the city, it will be even more serious.

Instead, he went around to contact Chen Yu to preserve his strength. Xiang Yu's side was about to attack soon, and the main battlefield was in the north of Julu City.It was the time when the man made meritorious deeds, how could he not take part in the battle against Wang Li?
Yin Xu thought over and over again, and immediately rushed to the northwest with more than 6000 soldiers.He reacted quickly, and Dong Yi and Sima Xin couldn't bear it anymore, and immediately dispatched troops to intercept him. It is not known whether he can escape safely.

While Yin Xu was dealing with Dong Yi and Sima Xin, Zhang Han's central army tent received an urgent military report.

Zhang Han looked intently, his face turned cold, his eyes became more and more serious, more and more gloomy.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Ping on the side knew something was wrong, something must have happened.He asked tentatively in a low voice, "Brother, what happened?"

Zhang Han slapped the bamboo slips heavily on the handsome table, and said coldly: "Don't you envy Dong Yi and the others? There is a better chance now, you go... no, you go and gather [-] soldiers now Horse, go out with me."

Uh?Zhang Ping was a little dazed, what happened?Chasing and annihilating Yin Xu is likely to be a great achievement. The elder brother didn't think of himself, but handed it over to Dong Yi and Sima Xin. Could it be that the elder brother is afraid that others will say cronyism?

While guessing, the eldest brother suddenly called for some troops to fight.Zhang Ping couldn't help being surprised, what happened?The eldest brother who is expensive as a general wants to fight in person...

The unfolded bamboo slips fell to the ground, and it was written that the whereabouts of the Chu army were found five miles west of the Calabash Valley, with a number of two to three thousand.

Only then did Zhang Han realize that he might have been deceived, and not all Qin troops were under Julu City.When the spies who reported the news come back, they must be engaged in military law, although the difference between [-] and [-] is not too big.

Now, Zhang Han is not even sure whether Yin Xu is the leader of the army under Julu City.After working for a long time, Yin Xu's fundamental goal is still the tunnel, he was careless!
Facts show that at least one team of more than 2000 people is attacking the tunnel.You must know that after intensive repairs, the tunnel has just been unblocked, and the grain delivery to Wang Li has just resumed. If there is another problem, the consequences will be serious.

These Chu people must be stopped as soon as possible!
This was Zhang Han's first thought, but Song Yi and Sima Xin were both sent out by him, and he wanted Zhang Ping to go.But I also feel that my younger brother is impetuous, not stable enough, and the matter is of great importance, so maybe it will be delayed.Moreover, the person who led the army to sneak attack was probably Yin Xu, his younger brother Zhang Ping might not be able to deal with it properly, and he was thinking of meeting him, so he felt that it would be more appropriate to fight in person, both public and private.

When the army arrived, the destruction by the Chu army had already begun, and the corridor that had just been repaired was destroyed again.The extent of the damage this time was too much, and the delivery of grain and grass to Wang Li was bound to be delayed.

Looking at the ruins, the broken vehicles, the corn all over the ground, and the remains of the beheaded soldiers of the Qin army, Zhang Han clenched his fists and was furious.

Sure enough, Yin Xu ruined his good deed again!
When his subordinates came down to report that the Chu army had not gone far, Zhang Han's anger broke out in an instant, and he immediately ordered the whole army to pursue.Zhang Han's army had cavalry, unlike the Chu army who relied on two legs, and it didn't take long to catch up.

To Zhang Han's disappointment, it was not Yin Xu who led the army, but Lu Chen.Zhang Han sighed secretly, he could only pin his hopes on Dong Yi and Sima Xin.

However, no matter who destroys the tunnel, it is an unforgivable crime. The angry Zhang Han immediately ordered an attack, wiped them all out, and even went into battle in leather armor to direct the charge.

Lu Chen didn't expect that the Qin army would come after him so soon, and it was Zhang Han who led the army himself.It seems that it is not as simple as what Yin Xu said, and it is not easy to get the credit for this day's great work!He knew very well that Yin Xu was not to blame for this, the pressure under Julu City was even greater.

At the same time, Lu Chen also realized a serious problem. Zhang Han besieged himself with ten times the strength, and it was impossible to escape.The fear of death spread quickly in him and his men, and they had fallen into a desperate situation.

surrender?Leaving aside whether he would like it or not, Zhang Han didn't mean it at all.

If you die, you will die, and you have to pull a back when you die. With such a belief, the Chu army started a jedi counterattack.

Life and death have been disregarded, and the Chu army has nothing to fear, brandishing their spears and fighting fiercely with the Qin army.Some fell in a pool of blood in an instant, without a sound, and picked up the next one with a spear, and the soldiers of Chu State who had made three thousand and had no way out were blood-stained on the battlefield like this.

The battle was extremely fierce, and Zhang Han was extremely angry, no matter what the cost, he was bound to retaliate with thunder.A serious warning to the people of Chu and the rebels from all walks of life, and anyone who sneaks into the tunnel will end up like this.

Seeing their companions fall one after another, the Chu army was already red-eyed, and 3000 people attacked the [-] elite Qin army.They defended their dignity and value with their lives, and at the same time opened a door for their companions under Julu City.

Half an hour later, Lu Sanqian's entire Chu army was wiped out, and no one survived, including General Lu Chen.This battle was fought very tragically. When they were dying, they dragged nearly [-] elite Qin soldiers to be buried with them.The most prominent and mysterious thing is not here, but a soldier who is good at bow and crossbow, shot the Qin general Zhang Han with an arrow.

The arrow was wounded on the shoulder, and the blood flowed a lot but it was not serious, not to mention fatal, it just looked a little scary.But no one expected that due to some accidental factors, this arrow would affect the entire battle situation and have an incalculable impact.

Three thousand heroic spirits have knowledge underground, and they can die with peace in their eyes, smiling at Jiuquan!

The general was injured, Qin Jun couldn't help being a little flustered, and Zhang Ping was also taken aback.The elder brother was too angry today, he rushed too far forward when commanding the battle, and was injured by the crossbow arrows of the Chu army.Seeing the blood oozing from the wound, Zhang Ping immediately sent his elder brother back to the barracks for treatment.

Although the eldest brother has repeatedly claimed that it doesn't matter, Zhang Han is very worried, for fear that something will go wrong and something will happen.To be on the safe side, he privately sent someone to tell Dong Yi and Sima Xin to end the battle as soon as possible and come back earlier.

Dong Yi and Sima Xin didn't know what to do, they were at a loss.After questioning, he learned that the general had been shot by an arrow, but the extent of his injury was unknown, so his face turned pale with shock.Guessing that Zhang Ping came to inform him specially, he thought that something big happened, and there was no love to fight.

After letting Yin Xu go, there is still a chance. If there is something wrong with the general, it will be lost forever.

Yin Xu was blocked under Julu City, seeing that he was about to be surrounded by Dong Yi and Sima Xin, Yin Xu didn't care about anything else and tried his best to break through.Naihe has been unable to shake off the pursuers, and has not been able to break out of the encirclement.

What can I do?When he was in a dilemma, he found that the Qin army's offensive was not as violent as before.After breaking through the encirclement, no Qin army continued to pursue them. In this way, they successfully rushed out and approached Chen Yu's tribe in the north of Julu City.

Along the way, Yin Xu was full of doubts, why did the Qin army suddenly withdraw?He still doesn't know that the reason why he can escape safely is the life and blood of three thousand heroic spirits...
