Three Kingdoms: Peak Summons

Chapter 447 The end of the road

Chapter 446: The end of the road

Xiang Yu is a proud man. Hearing what Qin Hao said, he almost lost his mind with anger.

Originally, this disastrous defeat was a big blow to Xiang Yu, but he was just suppressing his anger and not showing it.

Now being so stimulated by Qin Hao, Xiang Yu could not bear it. If Shi Lan hadn't pulled him and Qin Hao was on the tower, Xiang Yu would have fought Qin Hao desperately.

A total of 400,000 troops, Xiang Yu put all his hard work into it.

But he was ruined by Qin Hao in the first battle. Now Xiang Yu is basically alone once he returns to the pre-liberation period.

Of course, Qin Hao destroyed not only Xiang Yu's ambitions, but the entire Yellow Turbans would also be completely destroyed due to Xiang Yu's defeat.

 Hence, it can be said that Xiang Yu ruined the Yellow Turbans and the hopes of the people all over the world, so he will always be despised by the people all over the world.

Of course Xiang Yu couldn't think of these things. All he could think about was what was in front of him.

Now that Fancheng has been occupied by Qin Hao, and he only has 3,000 remaining troops under his command, it is obviously unrealistic to attack by force, so he can only retreat to Wancheng.

Before leaving, Xiang Yu stared at Qin Hao hatefully, gritted his teeth and shouted: "Qin Hao, just wait, our contest is not over yet."

If eyes could kill, Qin Hao would have died ten times earlier, but unfortunately it couldn't.

Qin Hao was extremely helpless when he saw this. The hatred between him and Xiang Yu could no longer be resolved, so he was not prepared to fulfill the agreement with Shi Lan.

With seven armies flooded and ambushed from ten sides, all 400,000 Yellow Turban troops died, but Xiang Yu was still alive and well. Is this because Xiang Yu's life was hard enough?

of course not.

 Xiang Yu did not cross the Han River so long before the water attack, but he crossed the Han River on the day of the water attack. Is there such a coincidence in the world?

 So besides Shi Lan, Qin Hao couldn't think of any other reason.

 But the key point is that Shi Lan didn’t know the specific plan, so how did she know that the Han army would launch a water attack?

 Her own speculation? Or is it a woman's premonition?

No matter what it is, Qin Hao must admit that he underestimated this woman.

 Shi Lan, what will you choose next? I'm looking forward to it! Qin Hao thought with a sneer in his heart.

After watching Xiang Yu lead the army and leave, Qin Hao asked Liu Ji beside him: "Commander, Xiang Yu is still alive and well. Will this affect the subsequent plans?"

Liu Ji smiled calmly and said: "Xiang Yu is brave but without any plan. He used to hold an army of 400,000, but he was still played by the lord between his bones and claws. It is even more impossible now."

Qin Hao nodded, took a long breath, and ordered: "Send the order and quickly stabilize the situation in the city. When the rear troops arrive, they will immediately send troops to Nanyang and never give Xiang Yu any chance to breathe."

It can be said that the Han army marched northward in full force this time, but only fifteen thousand people crossed the Han River.

Ten thousand troops and horses were used to set up an ambush on all sides, so to capture Fancheng, Qin Hao actually only used 5,000 troops and horses.

Fancheng's defense is not low, and there is a special reason why Qin Hao was able to capture it so quickly.

Nanyang was strategically abandoned by Lu Zhi, and most of the cities retained their previous defensive arrangements, so Qin Hao found loopholes and easily broke through the cities.

Of course, this trick can only be used once. When the Yellow Turbans in various places in Nanyang react, they will immediately change their strategic deployment. By then, it will not be so easy to capture the city.

 Such a precious opportunity, Qin Hao will naturally not only use it in Fancheng.

When Xiang Yu arrives at Wancheng, he will find that Wancheng has actually changed hands a long time ago, and the person who captured Wancheng is... Zhu Jun.

 Wancheng. After running around all night, Xiang Yu finally arrived at Wancheng, but when he saw the banners with the characters "Han" and "Zhu" hanging at the top of the city, Xiang Yu suddenly trembled with anger.

On the top of the city, Zhu Jun looked at Xiang Yu below the city with a smile, and said loudly: "Xiang Yu, this Wancheng has been taken by me, you'd better go elsewhere."

 After handing over his military power to Lu Zhi, Zhu Jun led a small number of troops and retreated to Wuguan in a pretentious manner.

Wuguan has 15,000 defenders. After Zhu Jun entered the garrison, the defense became more secure, so Xiang Yu had no idea of ​​​​taking Wuguan by force.

On the eve of the decisive battle, Qin Hao asked Lu Zhi and Ding Yuan to write a secret letter to Zhu Jun, asking him to take advantage of the emptiness of Wancheng and the loopholes in its defense to capture Wancheng after the defeat of the Yellow Turbans.

 The reason why Lu Zhi and Ding Yuan were asked to write letters was actually because Qin Hao and Zhu Jun were not familiar with each other, and he was afraid that Zhu Jun would ignore him.

In fact, Qin Hao was overthinking it. As a famous general, Zhu Jun would definitely take the initiative when he saw a fighter opportunity even if Qin Hao didn't remind him.

Now at the most critical moment, Zhu Jun led 10,000 Han troops to leave Wuguan and capture Wancheng. This was a fatal blow to Xiang Yu.

 The materials seized by Xiang Yu from the massacre of the Nanyang family were all hoarded in Wancheng, so Wancheng was the capital for Xiang Yu's comeback.

With Wancheng here, Xiang Yu can quickly recruit troops and horses to resist Qin Hao's offensive.

 The current climate is no longer suitable for fighting again, so as long as Xiang Yu blocks this wave of offensive, he can defend Nanyang and recover his losses silently.

But if Wancheng is lost, without money and food supplies, Xiang Yu will naturally completely lose the chance to turn around.

With no money or food, how could the people's support alone stop the 100,000 Han troops?

 As soon as he thought about this, Xiang Yu felt despair in his heart.

 Qin Hao didn't give himself any chance. He lost, completely lost!

“Old Zhu Jun, young Qin Hao, I have no sworn relationship with you.”

Xiang Yu raised his head to the sky and let out a thundering roar, regretting in his heart that he did not immediately get rid of this scourge after capturing Qin Hao alive, which led to the current tragic defeat.

Xiang Yu regretted it, but Qin Hao was so happy.

 Because the rewards for this battle are finally about to be distributed.

“Ding dong, the inventory of the ‘Battle of Hanshui’ has begun…”

This battle is the biggest battle Qin Hao has fought since he entered the world, and it is also the one where he has gained the most.

Now that this big reward is about to be received, Qin Hao, who has experienced many battles, is still a little nervous.

 “Burning the new fields: killing four thousand enemies and damaging three hundred;”

 In fact, the burning of the new land was the turning point in the decisive battle.

In this action of the Han army, although the number of enemies killed was not large, it rescued the commander-in-chief Qin Hao. Of course, the most important thing was that it burned the Yellow Turbans' food and grass.

It is precisely because of the lack of food and grass, coupled with Yue Fei's troubles in the rear, that there is no way to replenish it stably, so Xiang Yu chose to withdraw his troops and return to Nanyang.

It can be said that if there was no fire to burn the new field, there would be no flood of seven armies and ambushes on all sides, and this battle would not be won.

 “The Battle of Changbanpo: Killed one hundred and sixty enemies, suffered zero losses;”

One update to make up for what I wrote last night. I actually finished writing it last night. I was so sleepy that I fell asleep before I even woke up. The golden summoning card is about to be obtained. Do you want to summon Bai Qi now? Ruka wants to hear everyone's opinions.
