Chapter 350 Qin Chu Great Battle

Luoyang.

With Yongchi's daily expectation, the sunrise and sunset.

The wine shop in Linshui has become a fixed position by Yongchi. He lacks connections in Qin State. The former subordinates of Liu Bang whom he knew were disgusted with, and Yongchi was worried about his desire to meet. In his anxiety, all he could do was wait for hopelessness every day.

The Wei Kingdom, which survived in the cracks between Chu, has reached the end of the destruction of the country. The one who gave it the last blow was the former anti-Qin alliance: Chu Kingdom.

Yongchi's hard waiting in Luoyang and his whimsical negotiation conditions did not bring any blessings to Wei. In the face of absolute power, Qin no longer needed a city in Pingyi to exchange for a group of defeated generals from Wei.

In comparison, Peng Yue was warmly received at the residence of Jiang Yu, the governor of Sanchuan County, which moved the thieves who were usually used to the simple and rough days of Daze. They did not expect that they would be treated so generously out of helplessness. What made Peng Yue even more excited was that Li Yuan had already agreed to meet him in person.

Seven years have passed.

Daliang gradually developed from Guidu to an important town above the river and became the capital of Wei again. The young military marquis who had only brought a group of remnants of soldiers outside Daliang City had also grown into the founder of the New Qin and the Wuhou of Qin, who had an unbeaten reputation.

Of course, there are changes and there are constants.

During the seven years of turbulence outside, Peng Yue buried his head in the giant wilderness, focusing on his old job. Now, when he wanted to meet Li Yuan again, Peng Yue was both excited and a little ashamed.

What is a hero?

Only those who face difficulties and move forward bravely are heroes. They hurried in their nests, drank today's wine with a group of idle men, and shouted that I was the best in the world with my dreams. They were just a coward who looked down upon.

Let’s clear your grudges when we meet.

The meeting between Li Yuan and Peng Yue was very hidden. The later the relationship between the thieves of Juye and Qin State was exposed, the greater the attack on Chu State. Peng Yue was a powerful counterattack piece. Li Yuan was interested in Peng Yue's familiarity with the situation in the Juyeze area. He also had the guerrilla tactics he was good at, which could just control the life gate of the Chu army.

As long as Xiang Yu was still nostalgic for Pengcheng, Peng Yue's sharp blade could be inserted into Chu's chest at any time. At the same time, the competition on the intelligence front is becoming increasingly fierce. The Military Intelligence Department, which Yan Le, was in charge, has also increased its efforts to lurk in Chu and attack internal Chu's intercourse. One batch of secret works sneaked into the heartland of Chu from different places, and their tasks were different, and they were responsible for various tasks such as counter-indictment, spy, and destruction.

While rushing to make arrangements, orders from urgently mobilized the army were also sent from Luoyang along the road to various places. The Han Xin army in Yan began to oppress the Qi area, and Feng Xuan's army stationed in the Nanjun area was also actively performing boats and preparing to go east along the river.

In order to deal with the most elite cavalry unit of the Chu army, Li Yuan also summoned more than 5,000 cavalry units that had fought against the Hun cavalry from Hexi, and handed the cavalry to Li Zhongxiang.

In the seventh year of the Xinli period of Qin Dynasty, in the summer of June.

After careful preparation, the Chu army launched a large-scale attack on the Wei State. In a hurry, King Bao of Wei abandoned Daliang and fled westward, and ended up at the city of Xingyang. Wei Bao was killed by the vanguard of the Chu army, and all the wealth of Wei State fell into the hands of the Chu army.

The news was heard, which shocked the remnants of the six countries who had fantasies about Chu. They never thought that it was not Qin who destroyed Wei, but Chu State, which came from the alliance forces. What made them even more incomprehensible was that after capturing Wei Bao and others, the Chu army did not escort them back to Pengcheng, but instead executed the Wei army soldiers bloodily or buried alive in front of the Qin army on the pass.

The Chu army's actions were considered on the battlefield, with the purpose of intimidating the opponents that were about to start a war: the Qin people. At the same time, they also used this excessive killing tactic to stimulate the morale of their own army. They made the Chu soldiers forget their miserable defeat in Yan land and turn them into machines that obey orders in the killing.

Afterwards, the overlord Xiang Yu swore a oath in Pengcheng and raised the banner of anti-Qin again. However, this time, except for the familial tribes in Jiangnan, Xiang Yu could no longer find any allies.

June 15th.

A part of the Chu army sneaked out from the Changshan Kingdom and entered the vicinity of Handan County of Qin. After looting the countryside, the Chu army prepared to return with wealth. As a result, they were surrounded and annihilated by the thieves from Juyeze in Changyi. More than a thousand Chu soldiers were wiped out and all were buried in the big zodiac.

The war immediately spread. On the 17th, Xiang Yu personally led his infantry and cavalry to attack Hulao along the river. Under the command of the county magistrate Jiang Yu, the Qin army that guarded it and insisted on retreating.

On the 18th, Chu general Zhongli Mei launched an attack from Changshan Kingdom again to Handan. This time, the Chu army dispatched more than 13,000 troops. This raid, the Chu army was bound to win, because it was only more than 200 miles from Changshan to Handan, and the Qin army guarded the city with only less than 3,000 local county soldiers, and the guard general was still Ji Xin, the former Chu general.

The governor of Handan County was the former King Xie of Zhao.

The Weiwei of Handan County was Ji Xin, an old general of Chu.

With the ideas of Xiang Yu and Zhong Limei, these two people are certainly not loyal to Qin. As long as the Chu army is approaching, it is no problem to sacrifice the city of Handan.

In order to persuade Ji Xin to surrender, after Zhong Limei surrounded Handan, he sent soldiers to shoot into the arrows tied with letters, using his own examples as a guide, hoping to persuade Ji Xin to return to Chu State.

However, the facts gave Zhonglimei a heavy blow. Not only did Ji Xin not agree to surrender to Chu, but instead sent fast horses to report to the surrounding Qin city. At the same time, Handan City was also working hard to repair the damaged city walls to consider long-term combat.

June 21st.

After the first few days of panic, the Qin army's assembly was finally completed successfully. More than 30,000 Han Xin's army stationed in Yan land set out from Jixian, crossed south to Yishui and marched into Qi and Daijun. Faced with the threat of the Qin army from the north, Xiang Yu urgently sent the fierce general Xiang Zhuang and the Grand Sima Zhou Yin to reinforce Qi.

Hulao Pass.

The stalemate on the front battlefield of Qin and Chu is still continuing.
