Chapter 303
After Long Qi died, the Chu army he brought abandoned its weapons and surrendered.
The battle in Zhongmu was over. Li Jian was worried about his two brothers, so he immediately asked Han Xin for his orders to lead troops to help the county.
Han Xin gave Li Jian 20,000 cavalry and asked him to immediately rush to Lie County. He led the main force of the Qin Dynasty to rush towards Yan Saner. Five thousand soldiers could confuse Xiang Yu for a while, but they would never last long. Once Xiang Yu found out that he was trapped, none of these five thousand people would survive.
Wei Huo of Lie County did not take the same approach as Li Jian. He asked his deputy generals to defend Lie County with most of his troops. However, he brought a thousand elite cavalry, accompanied by military crossbows and a few new horizontal swords, and took the initiative to attack.
Wei Huo did not defend his head. He believed that the best defense was to hit the enemy and could not attack. Han Xin gave him the order to restrain Zhongli's army. As for how to restrain it, whether it was necessary to use Liexian to restrain it, he did not say anything.
This gave Wei Huo great freedom of movement.
He led a thousand elite cavalry, like a tarsal gu, constantly harassed Zhongli. One thousand people were divided into five teams by Wei Huo. Each team had only two hundred people.
They took the initiative to attack Zhongli, but they didn't hurt, but they were itchy. Zhongli looked around for them to fight to the decisive battle, but they just couldn't find these small enemies, because these guys all appeared at night and disappeared during the day.
In just two days, the Chu army in Zhongli was trapped by the haunted people.
When Li Jian's reinforcements arrived, Zhongliyu had not launched a decent attack on Lie County. The Chu army was completely exhausted from dealing with Wei Huo's harassment.
Wei Huo's achievements surprised Li Jian and he couldn't help but admire his brother. Not only was his master's skill, but he was also incomparable to his strategy.
When Li Jian arrived, Wei Huo and Li Jian cooperated and began a counterattack against Zhongli. The Chu army was exhausted, and the Qin army shared the same hatred for the enemy. Zhongli was defeated.
However, his situation was much better than Long, and although there were not many people who suffered great defeats, he was only forced to withdraw his troops and approached the main force of the Chu army.
In this way, the saddest thing became Yan Saner.
He ran northwards and fled wildly.
The main force of Xiang Yu's army had already discovered that Yan Saner's group was not the main force of the Qin army, but the tempting enemy troops. But it was too late at this time. Long Qi was defeated and Zhongli's withdrawal of troops was reported to Xiang Yu one after another. Xiang Yu calmed down instead.
"You can pretend to be the main force of the Qin army to lure me deeper, then I will really eat you and let it die before you live." Xiang Yu was also helpless at this time. Han Xin's main force of Qin had already been pressed up behind him, and Handan was ahead, which was obviously not so easy to break. Now the plan is to let it die before you live.
After crossing the Zhang River, Xiang Yu ordered the soldiers to sink all the boats and smash all the stoves for cooking, and really played with them.
In Xiang Yu's words, it means rushing through the Zhang River, taking down Handan, making a fire in Handan City, or you will die in the battlefield.
The Chu army was indeed inspired by the actions of the chief general, and with the remaining soldiers of Zhongli, the large army with tens of thousands of people was not as fast as the five thousand long-legged soldiers led by Yan Saner.
This is the season of cold spring. After one or two solar terms, it is the time to open up and sow. The residents of Handan, Zhaodi, were already rolling up their arms and sleeves, preparing to do a great job on the wasteland. However, at this time, Yan Saner ran back to Handan City with his long-legged soldiers who had broken their legs.
Behind them, there were large army of the barbarians of Chu State flocking to them.
The originally clear city of Handan seemed to be covered with clouds in an instant. The four gates were closed and the suspension bridge was raised. It was even above the city, with archers standing there. Many people spontaneously rushed to the city to help the Qin army strengthen the city defense.
"Xiang Yu will inevitably massacre the city and firmly support the royal army." The people in Handan City are all the same. Why are there so many disasters and difficulties in Zhao, which just calmed down, and the bandits came one after another. It really angered the people of Zhao.
As the saying goes, since ancient times, there have been many generous and tragic people in Yan and Zhao.
Xiang Yu's army had just arrived at the city of Handan, and before the camp was captured, it had already welcomed four or five raiders and assassins with Zhao accents. Some of these people were masters, and some could only dance with swords and were not considered very famous in front of the tall Xiang Yu. However, they dared to sneak into the Chu army camp alone and assassinate Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu.
Most of them failed and died under the sword of Chu Jun in the military camp. In addition to the most powerful assassin, he failed to get close to Xiang Yu half a step.
There was only a weak old man who said he was coming to work hard. He was really close to Xiang Yu after he was fooling him. The old man suddenly pulled out a hatchet from his sleeve and rushed towards Xiang Yu.
The result is conceivable. Xiang Yu just pulled it lightly, and the old man's hatchet was gone. After reaching out his hand, Xiang Yu directly grabbed the old man's neck and lifted him up.
"I am the overlord Xiang Yu. You old man should be an old farmer. Why do you learn from others to come to assassinate? The Qin army has a reward?" Xiang Yu stuck his big hand at the old man's neck. The old man wanted to answer, but he just stumbled in his throat and made a whimpering sound.
Seeing that the old man was about to speak, Xiang Yu relaxed his hand slightly. The old man let out a long breath, opened his turbid eyes and sprayed a mouthful of phlegm. Xiang Yu looked slightly, and the phlegm flew over with saliva, but a little bit of it fell on Xiang Yu's face, and some diǎn's slightly cool.
"You turtle Xiang Yu, don't mention giving a reward, even if you ask the old man to pay, you will kill you. I pity my child being killed by you in the city." The old man was furious and burst into tears.
Before Xiang Yu could finish his words, he used his big hand to force it, and with a clatter, he actually crushed the old man's neck.
"I'm immortal, go and accompany you to your devil son." Xiang Yu was depressed. He had no enemy general in his battles. Now he was actually caught on his face by the old man's spit. No, he had to wash his face.
In Handan City, Yan Saner has been a man with title since he made his merit last time. At this moment, he is the highest commander. Several military lieutenants looked at the Chu army camp outside the city with horror. They were waiting for Yan Saner, the highest ruler, to refer to him, after all, he attracted the Chu army.
Yan Saner looked at several military lieutenants and yelled: "Don't look at me, Han Xin asked me to lure the enemy into the depths. Who knows that I lure the enemy into Handan, but I didn't see Han Xin's damn."
The only one who dares to scold the general in the army is probably Yan Saner. After all, Yan Saner's title is now higher than Han Xin. From the court, his words to scold Han Xin are not considered as a crime.
Han Xin had a slightly fever in the middle of the army. I wonder if it was because Yan Saner scolded him. In short, he was very upset now because of the change in the original plan.
He was preparing to let Yan Saner enter from the front of Handan City and retreat from the rear, leaving the entire Handan City to Xiang Yu.
Who knew that Yan Saner, a guy who was afraid of death, did not leave the city, but climbed the city with the soldiers and civilians in the city to defend. Everything deviated from the original combat plan, and Han Xin needed to make a new decision.
Yan Saner was also full of bitterness. She originally wanted to take people out of Handan City. But after Sima Xin was addicted after being ordered by Handan, she was addicted. In just a few days, she said that she was the parents of Handan and could not give up her people and escape alone. She also said that Yan Hou was afraid of death and could leave, and the younger ones would definitely not leave.
Yan Saner was anxious at that time and was afraid of the case. How could I be afraid of death and stayed?
After the passionate energy, Yan Saner cursed Sima Xin secretly and pulled herself down. Now there is only one left to defend herself.
Before going to the city, Yan Saner and Sima Xin worshiped the world. Sima Xin sincerely prayed that Handan would not destroy the city and massacre the city. Yan Saner prayed that Xiang Yu would be struck by lightning.
After arriving at the city, he saw the people on the street picking up hoes, demolishing the houses and preparing to roll the wood. Yan Saner's restlessness calmed down. Seeing the women in Handan City cooking, cooking and delivering food to the city one after another, he didn't know where the heroic spirit came from, and sat down and shouted: "My marquis and Handan City survived and died together." To be continued.
