Chapter 267: Fighting Julu Again

Puzhang Ferry in March.

As the flood of the river passed, the melting ice made an unpleasant squeaking sound when it collided with each other. Sometimes, the ice quickly hit the wooden bridge connecting Guanzhong and Hedong, shaking the sturdy wooden bridge. On the bridge, the Qin army lined up from west to east, with flags directing straight to the east.

"The old Qin will revive my rivers and mountains. The blood will not flow dry, and the battle will not stop until death." The Qin army's battle song roared with the turbulent river water, making people feel a sense of intense tension and suffocation.

"Wuhou has an order to advance at a rapid march speed, with the goal: Chaoge City." On Puban Bridge, a young captain in his 20s was pressing his sword in his hand, and was loudly encouraging his morale.

"Captain Gan Yong, I heard that there are more than 200,000 Zhao troops fighting us. Are there really so many?" A few equally young generals asked with doubts beside the captain.

"It's just 200,000 pigs and dogs. The ring-headed knife in a certain family's hand has never seen blood, so it just makes it drink with pleasure." Gan Yong sneered and said proudly.

Among the Qin army recruited this time, Gan Yong was just one of them. This Qin army with more than 2,300 people was very different from other troops. Their fathers were all generals and officers who served in the Qin army. Therefore, in terms of loyalty to the Qin State, this army was also the highest.

Leading this newly formed young army was Gan Yong, a young captain under Han Xin. His father was also the first generation general promoted by Li Yuan - Gan Houbo.

After two battles between Hedong and Nanyang County, Gan Yong's childishness gradually disappeared. He was able to stand alone and was discovered by Li Yuan and quickly snatched it from Han Xin. Han Xin expressed great dissatisfaction with Li Yuan's shameless behavior.

However, after Li Yuan said that he would command 10,000 generals and soldiers and sent troops from one of the eight paths of Taihang to attack Zhao, Han Xin immediately stopped complaining.

Lead alone.

This is a lifelong wish for a general.

After seeing Li Yuan's style of commanding in the Qin and Han War, Han Xin secretly vowed in his heart that he would lead the army alone and face those conspiracies alone, and there would be difficulties and dangers.

Gan Yong was still at first resistant to being transferred to a newly formed army to serve as a captain. However, when he heard that this new army was formed by Li Yuan himself and might become a model force, Gan Yong immediately said goodbye to Han Xin and rushed back to Chang'an without saying a word.

The Qin army divided into two groups.

The main force of the southern line was led by Li Yuan himself, with 40,000 soldiers under his command, including Su Jiao, Cao Xin, Chen Xi, as well as first-class officers such as Gan Yong, Manqiuchen, Wang Huang. Overall, this is a unit that combines old and new. What is very special is that Li Yuan specially ordered Chen Xi to be transferred back from the Yingchuan line to participate in the war against Zhao, which made Chen Xi very proud, and also disappointed Zhang Ping, who was still stationed in Yingchuan.

Chen Xi is quite outstanding in terms of talent. What's more important is that Zhang Ping's appeal is completely incomparable. Li Yuan transferred Chen Xi into the southern line troops in order to further attack and disintegrate Liu Bang's troops with the help of Chen Xi's identity as a surrendered general of the Han army.

The 10,000 infantry cavalry on the northern line were commanded by the general Han Xin, and walked out of the pass along the well path one of the eight paths of Taihang. This Qin army side division took Li Zuo Army as the side general of the front army and rushed to the rear hinterland of Zhao along the well path.

——.

Julu.

An important town in the southern part of Zhao State.

The 80,000 Zhao army built a temporary defense line here. When Chen Yu, who learned that the Qin State Shenwu Marquis Li Yuan personally led his troops to fight, had been singing the slogan of alliance to attack Qin, was panicked. In a hurry, he quickly led the 80,000 Zhao army that had just gathered to deploy defense along the Zhuozhang River. The strength of the two-to-one advantage could not give the Zhao army soldiers any sense of security.

This result makes people feel funny and ridiculous. Chen Yu's real idea is actually just to use the slogan of attacking Qin to win more points for himself, so as to attract more people to join him. As for attacking Qin, of course, it will be true in the end, but before the Zhao army is really ready.

However, Li Yuan's sudden dispatch of troops was like a scoundrel, beating the fantasy new Zhao King Chen Yu into a stare, and also made Liu Bang, who had finally recovered, sweat again with his nervous hands.

"Zifang, Aze, Ajia, Brother Han, this time it's up to you. Li Zhe is fierce, please be careful. If there is anything wrong, let Chen Yu's troops be in front." Before going to the war, Liu Bang ordered the generals with lingering fear.

Be afraid before fighting.

This is a true portrayal of Liu Bang's troops. The generals are like this, and the soldiers are the same, especially those old soldiers who finally escaped from the north of Yingchuan. When they heard the Qin army attacking, they couldn't help but tremble.

Compared with Liu Bang's soldiers, Chen Yu's Zhao army was a little stronger. Since the earth-shaking war between the Zhao army and the Qin army, there has been no large-scale war. Therefore, the Zhao army's impression of the Qin army was still when they followed behind the Chu army a few years ago to get a bargain.

"Qin Gou, I heard that they are all uneducated dolls, and they are the descendants of the captives who were defeated by us back then. Haha, it's our Great Zhao people's turn to start a massacre."

"This is probably not that easy. I heard from a scout from Liu Jun that the Qin army was quite fierce. They killed their 100,000 troops in Nanyang County and died in blood. Countless people died in battle."

In Chen Yu's army, generals and school members who had opinions from time to time discussed in private. This discussion made the Zhao army's soldiers even more contradictory. Whether they were sure or not, they didn't even know how to win this battle.

March 17th.

The vanguard of Qin's army arrived at the Qingzhang River. The two thousand new troops led by the captain Gan Yong met with Li Qi, a unit of Zhao's army, while searching along the Zhangshui River. The two sides suddenly encountered a melee, and the Zhao army abandoned more than a thousand corpses and fled in a panic.

Initial disadvantage.

The Zhao army changed from being frenzy to being timid. Li Qi was also a general who could fight in Chen Yu's army, but he didn't want to meet a Qin general like Gan Yong, who was not very famous, and was beaten to the point of being beaten.

In the face of facts, Chen Yu's fanatical mood suddenly cooled down, but he felt the strength of the Qin army from one extreme to another.

Persevere and never fight.

Then, multiple envoys were sent to the various princes in Guandong, asking the princes to quickly send troops to reinforce the situation, considering that they were both under the anti-Qin banner.
