Chapter 408 Withdrawal

Bai Qi was in charge of the troops, and a system prompt sound came from Ouyang Shuo's ears.

"System prompt: Congratulations to the player for saying Wuyi, Bai Qi, the general under his command, obtained the command of the Qin Dynasty camp, and rewarded the battle contribution value of 50,000 points, and the battle contribution value bonus of 20%.

Strong!

The 50,000-point battle contribution value is enough to make other players' jealous eyes congested. The battle contribution value bonus means that if Ouyang Shuo wins 10,000-point contribution value, he will get an additional 2,000-point contribution value.

With the achievements of the Shanhaicheng army, Ouyang Shuo will win another big win.

Immediately afterwards, there was a campaign announcement.

"Battle Announcement: Bai Qi, the general of Shanhai City, reached hidden conditions and obtained command of the Qin Dynasty camp. Bai Qi replaced Zhang Han and commanded the 450,000 troops and the Yi Ren Legion of the Qin Dynasty camp."

As soon as the announcement was released, the lords were mixed with all kinds of emotions.

For the lords of the Qin Dynasty camp, they were betting on the right treasure this time. The military god Bai Qi commanded the army of this camp, which is definitely much better than Zhang Han.

The most important thing is that Bai Qi will not be constrained by the court, and this is the most important thing.

After Bai Qi took charge of the troops, the first military order issued was to order Wang Li's army and Zhang Han's army stationed in the corridor to evacuate, lift the siege of Julu, and evacuate to Jiyuan City.

This move was really beyond everyone's expectations.

Even Zhang Han was a little puzzled.

"Wu'anjun, Wang Li's army finally surrounded Julu, why did he withdraw his troops?"

Bai Qi shook his head and asked, "In your opinion, can Wang Lijun capture Julu just by virtue of his own?"

"cannot!"

Zhang Han shook his head firmly. If he could, he would not have to surround him for two months without any progress. Looking back at the Battle of Julu, there was a real hero behind the scenes who had been deliberately forgotten by history.

This hero behind the scenes is Chen Yu, the minister of Zhao State.

As mentioned above, Li Liang, the general of King Wuchen of Zhao, was insulted by Wuchen, and was furious to kill King Wuchen of Zhao and his sister in the capital Handan.

After the ministers of Zhao State Zhang Er and Chen Yu escaped, Xindu, north of Handan, supported the old noble Zhao Xie as King of Zhao, and then defeated Li Liang who was chasing him.

This Chen Yu is that Chen Yu.

The real organization and planner of the Battle of Julu is Chen Yu.

Why do you say that? Let’s take a look at what Chen Yu did in the Battle of Julu.

First, gather the remaining troops.

After Julu was besieged, Chen Yu actively recruited foreign aid to form the Hebei army.

Second, communicate with Julu City.

The two ministers of Zhao State, Zhang Er and Chen Yu, were friends who were slashing their necks. Zhang Er and Zhao Xie, the king of Zhao, were trapped in Julu. During the siege of the city, Chen Yu always had a connection with the city.

Third, communicate with Xiang Yu's army and Zhao's army.

Xiang Yu killed Song Yi and sent troops to rescue Julu. The contact between the two armies was Chen Yu.

Therefore, the core of the connection between reinforcements inside and outside the city is Chen Yu.

Chen Yu was working together outside the city, and it was difficult to capture Julu City with Wang Li's army alone.

As soon as Zhang Han finished speaking, he frowned without waiting for Bai Qi to explain. After thinking about it carefully, withdrawing troops now is indeed the best choice.

Although the Yi Ren Legion joined, the Qin army could reinforce Wang Li's army. But don't forget that the Chu army camp on the other side of the Yellow River also added more than 500,000 Yi Ren Legion.

If so, in order to attack Julu, the Qin army was divided into two parts.

Part of it is in Julu City, part of it is in Jiyuan City.

If the two armies can be linked together, there will be nothing. The difficulty lies in the fact that the Chu army led by Xiang Yu is stuck on the lifeline of the two armies' connection, which is extremely uncomfortable.

It's like a snake, strapped for seven inches.

Continue to attack Julu? He can't defeat it in a short period of time. He is waiting for the defense of the strong formation. He is also facing threats from the Chu army at any time.

It's really a dilemma.

With Bai Qi's command, although there would be no situation in history when Xiang Yu burned his boats and attacked Wang Li's army, while Zhang Han's army was watching from the wall.

But it is difficult to defeat the anti-Qin Allied forces with this.

At most, both sides can only maintain an unbeaten battle. I don’t know when to confront each other. If you are not careful, you may be caught by the Chu army and caught off guard.

Therefore, after understanding the entire battle situation, Bai Qi decisively decided to cut off his arm, give up the siege of Julu, and instead retreat to Jiyuan City.

This is Bai Qi, who never acts according to common sense.

Withdrawal is just the first step in Bai Qi's strategy, and he has further considerations.

The characteristic of Bai Qi's military use is that he likes to think about, think about the opponents and think about the battles. He can often point out the key to the left and right battles.

Seeing that Zhang Han had figured it out, Bai Qi continued, "The key to the victory or defeat is the word "food and grass."

After Zhang Han captured Handan, he plundered all the food around Handan and transported it to the base camp Jiyuan City. Therefore, in history, Zhang Han's army was besieged for more than half a year, but there was no food left.

In the anti-Qin alliance, if the Julu siege is lifted, the food and grass problems of the Chu army will be alleviated in a short period of time, and it seems that there is no big problem.

In fact, the crisis is hidden in the Inhuman Legion.

As the saying goes, good fortune and misfortune depend on each other.

Any advantages have disadvantages.

The 530,000 Yi Ren Legion of the Anti-Qin camp certainly brought powerful combat power, and also brought unexpected burdens to the logistics of the Allied forces.

Julu City is surrounded, so there is not enough food and grass in the city.

It would be fine if it was just the Allies, but it could last for half a month, but with more than 500,000 alien legions, the Allies would have to run out of food in less than a week.

But there is no food in the surrounding areas for the Allied forces to plunder.

Therefore, compared with the two, the Qin army retreating to Jiyuan City was invincible before the war began.

At the same time, Bai Qi also made a thorough analysis of Xiang Yu's character.

With Xiang Yu's conceited personality, he would never be consuming the Qin army. The only way out is to use the method Xiang Yu is best at solving the problem, that is, forcibly attacking Jiyuan City.

In this way, the Qin army had a superior geographical advantage.

For a time, the right time and place were on the side of the Qin army.

It has to be said that Bai Qi's plan is more than that of Zhang Han.

After listening to it, Zhang Han was impressed.

The next step is to discuss how to ensure that Wang Li's army can evacuate smoothly and not be raided by the anti-Qin Allied forces. In this regard, Zhang Han has experienced the old Taoist, so there is no need for Bai Qi to give advice.

On the first day of the battle, Bai Qi set the general tone for the entire battle.

Of course, Xiang Yu's strong individual combat power and terrifying explosive power are the biggest uncertainty factors. Anyone who dares to underestimate Xiang Yu will definitely fall a big fuss. The title of the most powerful general in the ages is not a waste. In history, both Wang Li and Liu Bang have suffered from Xiang Yu's great suffering.

The Jiangdong warriors led by Xiang Yu launched a madman, which was horrifying.

The Battle of Julu is far from time to come to a conclusion.

************

In the next two days, Wang Lijun, under the escort of Zhang Han's army, successfully retreated to Jiyuan City.

Before evacuating, Wang Li's army took away all the food in the camp. Those who could not take it were burned to pieces, leaving no grain for the Allies.

At the same time, Xiang Yu barely completed the reorganization of the Ingenious Legion.

When he learned that Wang Li's army had evacuated, the siege of Julu was unexpectedly lifted.

Xiang Yu did not think about it, and followed the trend to cross the Yellow River, and moved his entire army to Julu City.

At the same time, the 300,000 princes who had previously watched the wall also entered Julu City. At this point, the Battle of Julu was completely on a completely different trajectory from the historical track.

Both sides of the camp each occupy a city, confronting north and south.

The specific location of Jiyuan City is Shuiye Town in the west of Anyang. Here, the Taihang Remnants on the north and south sides are the three sides of the west, which looks like a pocket. Shuiye Town is located at the bottom of the pocket.

And Anyang City happens to be the mouth of the pocket. Although it is a pocket, it is not a Jedi.

From Shuiye Town, there is a great avenue to pass through the steep Taihang Mountains, leading directly to Linzhou, and then to the south, you can enter the Hanoi County, the rear of Zhanghan.

The terrain here is dangerous, with the north being the watershed between the Zhang River and the Huan River. The Zhang River and the Huan River emerge from the west to the east along the foot of the mountain, forming a natural barrier.

After Bai Qi took charge of the troops, he arranged a large army to build three defensive fortifications overnight on the front line of Jiyuan City. He advanced one after another and arrived at the foot of Jiyuan City.

Although Bai Qi pursued an active defensive strategy when retreating to Jiyuan City.

Building defensive fortifications is Bai Qi's strength.

At the same time, Bai Qi also roughly reorganized the 450,000 Qin troops and more than 700,000 Yi Ren Legion and allocated the approximate defense area.

The 150,000 Wang Li's army, mainly elite light cavalry, was arranged by Bai Qi as the general reserve army, responsible for supporting at any time and reinforcement of all parts of the battlefield, which is equivalent to a firefighting team.

There are 300,000 Zhang Han's army, of which 150,000 are stationed in Jiyuan City. The remaining 150,000 troops are based on three fortifications as the axis to form a vertical defense chain.

More than 700,000 alien legions were arranged on three fortifications or placed on the city wall.

Each unit has a specific defense location.

In this way, for the Inhuman Legion, if you want to win the battle contribution value, you should go directly to the anti-Qin Allied Forces in the section where it is responsible.

If you win, you will have a lot of results; if you lose, you will not blame others.

Bai Qi's arrangement minimizes the contradictions and confrontations within the Inhuman Legion.

The lords of the Qin Dynasty camp had nothing to say about this arrangement, which completely dispelled their doubts. Bai Qi was in charge of the troops, and the lords had previously suspected that Bai Qi would have a special preference for the Shanhai Alliance.

Facts have proved that they are just trying to judge a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

Bai Qi has truly treated everyone equally.

The only strange thing is that the three thousand Yulin Guards led by Ouyang Shuo disappeared in Jiyuan City while the chaos was in the chaos.

After that, until the end of the battle, the lords of the Qin Dynasty camp never saw Ouyang Shuo again. The two girls Bai Hua and Feng Qiuhuang disappeared with him.

Although the lords were puzzled, they did not take it seriously.
