Chapter 203: The Han Dynasty with the same hatred of the enemy

On July 27, the fifteenth year of Qianyuan, Zhou Shen and Xu Jie were held in funerals. The King of Han ordered the whole city to be filial. At the funeral of the two, the King of Han made a bloody oath and decided to devote all the whole country to avenge Zhou Shen and Xu Jie. However, the facts had to make the King of Han try his best. Now the Qin army has entered the pass in large numbers, and the troops have reached 200,000. As for the Han State, the famous general Zhou Shen and the powerful general Xu Jie were first attacked by the Qin army in Fan County, killing and injured tens of thousands of people. What's more, according to the news from Liangzhou, the Qin State had gathered 100,000 elite troops in the capital Guzang and reinforced Guanzhong at any time. The Qin State had already launched a huge army. The King of Han realized that the most dangerous time for the Han State was coming.

After the funeral, the King of Han personally came to the Han army camp outside Chang'an City. Due to the death of Zhou Shen and Xu Jie, the morale of the Han army was severely hit and was very depressed. The King of Han wanted to boost morale himself, otherwise the Han army would be defeated when the war with the Qin army began.

When the Han King's car arrived at the gate of the camp, white banners had already hung in the entire camp, and all the Han soldiers looked sad. The murder of Zhou Shen and Xu Jie was a big blow to them.

"Dong!Dong!Dong!" The Han King ordered people to beat the drum of gathering generals. Soon, all the Han soldiers came to the generals. The Han King stood on the platform, looked at the sad faces below the stage, took a step forward, and shouted: "All the soldiers, I am the king of the Han Dynasty. Today I will come to see you. I know that the deaths of General Zhou and General Xu make you very sad. To be honest, I am even more sad than you. Both generals are famous generals of the Han Dynasty, who have made a lot of contributions to the Han Dynasty. They have also led the Han army to defeat countless enemy countries. They are my loyal ministers. Their deaths have made me feel very sad."

"However, grief cannot solve the problem. The two generals tragically died the Qin thief. What we need to do now is to cheer up, pick up our weapons, turn grief and anger into strength, and avenge the two generals."

"Avenge! Revenge!" The words of the King of Han instantly ignited the anger in the hearts of all the Han soldiers. Yes, now we should turn grief and anger into strength to avenge Zhou Shen and Xu Jie, so that the Qin people know that the anger of the Han people is not so easy to extinguish.

Seeing that the morale of the entire army was rising, the King of Han was very pleased, so he continued, "Okay, I know that my sons of the Han Dynasty are all strong and brave. Now the Qin thieves are in Yumi. I want you to pick up your weapons and go to Yumi to fight the Qin thieves to die. I wonder if you dare?"

"A life-and-death battle, never ending! A life-and-death battle, never ending!" Everyone said with emotion, his voice was astounding as the sky, and at the same time led the people around him. At this moment, all the Han people shared the same hatred and determined to stop with Qin until death.

After returning to the Han Palace, the Han King summoned all the ministers to discuss the issue of sending troops. Qin had already found out that it forced Han to the edge of the cliff. The Han Kingdom had to fight back. Moreover, this time it was a decisive battle that would never end. The Han King wanted to mobilize all the resources of the Han Kingdom to fight a life-and-death battle with Qin.

"The whole country is ordered to leave a daily garrison in various places. All the troops gathered in Chang'an and went to Yu Mi to compete with the Qin army." The first sentence of the Han King was to gather troops from all over the country to Chang'an.

"Here!" Everyone dared not neglect because the Qin army's ambushing this time really angered the Han people. Now everyone has only one idea in their minds, that is, to destroy the Qin army.

"This time, all the elite troops of my great Han were released. Guan Zhang, Fan Lu, Cao Ying, Gu Sanfeng, Xiahou Wuji, Song Qun, Liu Quan, Zhou Bing, Zhang Tong, Chen Lin, and Zhang Hong were the military advisors to go to Fengxian County. When the troops were assembled, I would go to Yongxian in person to take charge. Zhou Chong guarded Wuguan to guard Deng, the prince supervised the country, Xiahou Jie was in Chang'an, and Prime Minister Cao Qun was in charge of the government." The King of Han decided to go to Yongxian in person. It can be said that the imperial commander personally fought. Logically, such a decision would be opposed by the ministers, but this time the situation was too dangerous. Moreover, Zhou Shen had just been killed and the army was floating, and the King of Han had to personally appease the morale of the army, otherwise this battle would be difficult to fight.

In August of the 15th year of Qianyuan, the Han Dynasty gathered 250,000 troops in Chang'an City, plus 100,000 elite troops in Yumi. This time, the Han Dynasty dispatched 350,000 troops. In addition to some troops guarding Wuguan, Hanzhong, Hanguguan and Beijun counties, there were no soldiers in the Han Dynasty, and the remaining troops on the borders of these heroic passes were only a little more than 50,000.

The Han Dynasty's big move also shocked the world. No one expected that the Han Dynasty would be so tough. Logically speaking, although the Qin army was fully equipped, as long as the Han Dynasty guarded a few important towns, the Qin army would retreat after a long time. There was no need for the Han Dynasty to pull out all its troops. In this way, it would be good to win, but once it lost, the Han Dynasty would probably really be over.

The Han Dynasty's big move also shocked the Qin army. They originally planned to solve Zhou Shen, then break into Guanzhong, occupy some strongholds, and then slowly fight with the Han army. Without Zhou Shen, the Han Dynasty could not support the overall situation by relying on Cao Tian alone. However, now that the Han Dynasty gathers all its troops, once it fights, it will definitely be bloody, and the casualties will be injured. Even if it wins, it will be a tragic victory. However, the Han Dynasty has already set off a carriage, and Qin cannot retreat, right? So Meng Zhan immediately wrote an expedited document, sending it back to Guzang, and asking the King of Qin to quickly increase its troops in Guanzhong.

In Yumi City, Cao Tian was also very comforted after receiving the news from Chang'an. He did not expect that the King of Han would be so courageous this time and dared to bring troops from all over the country to fight such a desperate battle. However, Cao Tian did not object because he knew that it would be difficult to support the entire Han country alone. Instead of letting Qin slowly erode, it would be better to decide the outcome in one battle.

On the tenth day of the eighth day of the fifteenth year of Qianyuan, the Han King arrived in Yong County, and 250,000 Han troops had also arrived in Yumi. When the Han reinforcements arrived, Meng Zhan led the army to retreat a hundred miles and prepare for a decisive battle.

At the same time, the King of Qin, far away in Wuwei County, also received the urgent document from Meng Zhan, and decided to send all the last 100,000 elite troops gathered in Guzang City to Guanzhong. The King of Qin knew that this time he could not retreat because once he retreated, the Han State would definitely attack Longguan at all costs and even march into Liangzhou. After all, this time, Qin State did it really inauthentic.

In the Yumi Qin army camp, the commander of the Qin army, Meng Zhan, made a decision that surprised everyone in the world, that is, Meng Zhan actually gave up the position of commander of the Qin army to Bai Qi, the young general who planned to ambush Wu Yueshan.

"Bai Qi, I will give you this battle to you. You will command the army. Even I am under your command. Do you have confidence?" In front of the entire army, Meng Zhan handed over the position of commander of the army to Bai Qi. This could arouse the opposition of all Qin generals. However, under Meng's combat power, Bai Qi finally took over the position of commander of the army.

Bai Qi looked at Meng Zhan with a firm look and said, "Don't worry, General, the last general will not let the general down. In this battle, the last general will definitely make 350,000 Han troops die under Yumi City, and the entire army will be wiped out, and the prestige of our Great Qin."

"Okay! I am worthy of being a descendant of Wu'anjun. This demeanor is not inferior to Wu'anjun. I will wait and see. Bai Qi, this battle is the beginning of your fame in the world. As long as you win this battle, the former Wu'anjun's reputation will reappear in you." Meng Zhan said.

Cao Tian and other Han generals also learned that the command of the Meng general's army was handed over to Bai Qi. Although they were all very surprised, this was exactly what they wanted, because they wanted to avenge Zhou Shen and Xu Jie.

On August 25, the last 100,000 elite troops of the Qin army arrived in Yumi. The small Yumi gathered 650,000 troops from the Qin and Han dynasties. The decisive battle between the Qin and Han dynasties was about to begin. This battle also touched the hearts of the people of the world. Is it the Qin State defeating Han State and then attacking Guanzhong, or the Han State defeating Qin State to avenge Zhou Shen and Xu Jie, recovering Longguan, and thus marching into Xiliang? Both Qin and Han dynasties bet on national destiny.
