In Sanchuan County, Qu Wan was planning a large-scale counterattack. A few days ago, he suffered a big loss. The southern border army of Qin successfully deceived him. Zhou Yu's bastard was sold by the Qin people, and he still didn't forget to cheat him before leaving. Zhou Yu was framed and faced with desperate situations. Is it possible to turn to Chu? It was once one of the issues that Qu Wan had considered. Later, the development of the matter seemed to be moving in this direction. Zhou Yu's handwritten letter was delivered to Qu Wan. The Chu people still had a full understanding of the generals like the enemy. The handwriting and writing tone were all from Zhou Yu himself, and this move really made Qu Wan believe it. At that time, Zhou Yu seemed to have ended his life. Qu Wan was very happy to formulate an annihilation plan for the Xuanyiwei. Of course, the cooperation of Zhou Yu's southern border army was not lacking.

As a result, Qu Wan gritted his teeth. The southern border army did cooperate, but it was not him who cooperated, but Xuanyi Guard. Thanks to Qu Wan's cautiousness. Although he believed Zhou Yu, he still left a backup plan. He recovered the decline in the second half of the war. Finally, he used the advantage of large numbers of people to repel the attacks of two enemy troops, but lost a unit of more than 10,000 people.

After this battle, Qu Wan retreated to Sanchuan County, but the southern form became subtle. Through this battle, the southern border army and the Xuanyi Guard regained their footholds, and they still formed a clamping attack on him from left to right, and the two sides confronted each other.

Afterwards, it was learned through the captured Qin army captives that Zhou Yu had left the southern border army of Qin, and the commander of this army is Meng Tian's son Meng Yong. This made Qu Wan feel so angry that his teeth were itchy.

The current situation in the south is not what Qu Wan wants. Now, he wants to completely establish the Chu army's advantage in the southern part of Qin through a major battle to ensure that the Chu State can completely incorporate the southern part of Qin into rule.

The southern border army of Qin and the Xuanyi Guard were not a solid piece of iron. Such a big thing happened between the two, and even Zhou Yu, who was highly supported by the southern border army, was forced to leave. Qu Wan didn't believe it. Moreover, the Xuanyi Guard was known as the number one elite in Qin. This time, he lost face in front of the southern border army, and he must have a sense of anger. As long as there is a conflict between the two, he can be used.

Qu Wan's strategy is to concentrate his strength and first destroy the southern border army. The reason is very clear. The morale of the southern border army is now unstable. Even though Meng Yong is Meng Tian's son and there is no lack of appeal among the southern border army, there must be a problem with Chu Ge'er who has never been on the battlefield. Even if there are experienced veterans like Wang Ming and Tan Wei in the southern border army. The second reason is that if he attacked the Xuanyiwei first, the southern border army is worried because he offended Lu Chao and must have the intention to make contributions. They will definitely go to rescue, but first fight against the southern border army. However, the Xuanyiwei may not go to rescue, or their rescue steps are not so timely, so he has the opportunity to take advantage of it.

How long can the southern border army be defeated, a Xuanyi Guard, and a Lu Zhihui who rarely fought in battle? The ideal result is the best result, and the worst outcome is that the two sides will start a battle. However, with multiples of their own troops, even if the Xuanyi Guard put aside all achievements and came to support in time, he can still use his advantage in military strength to fight a decisive battle with them, and still be able to win.

After destroying these two armies, Lu Chao's power could be used was very limited. To control the domestic situation and to defend Hangu Pass, he would never be able to take into account the south in a short period of time, which left the Chu State time to integrate and digest the south and completely swallow the southern part of Qin State.

Qu Wan, who was full of confidence, launched an offensive against the southern border troops of Qin in early September. However, what disappointed him was that when his attack just began, his intention seemed to be seen by the Qin people. Although the southern border troops were slow, they were unswervingly moving towards Mengyin where the Xuanyi Guard was stationed. The two armies were gathered to fight with Qu Wan. Although this situation was a certain gap with Qu Wan's ideal, it was still expected that a major battle was held between Mengyin and Qin, the two main forces of Qin, seemed inevitable.

Qu Wan has full confidence in the final victory of this battle of Qin and Chu. In the past few months, the Chu army has been invincible in the southern part of Qin. The army has established full confidence, sufficient logistics, and smooth food channels. The capture of Sanchuan County has made the Chu army stand in a favorable position of attacking and retreating. In contrast, although the Qin army is fighting locally, the two armies have a rift and each have ulterior motives. The logistics supply is not as good as its own. The local war is endless and the morale is low. Compared with the two, if you can't win this scene, it will be useless to bring the soldiers of decades.

This strong confidence continued until the moment when the southern border army of Qin and the Xuanyiwei met, and the war was about to break out.

After a few days of eyes, the weather seemed to be about to change its face again. The gloomy dark clouds were pressing against the top, or because of the weather, or because the war was about to break out, everyone seemed to have a layer of lead falling into their hearts. Even the passionate war drums and horns seemed to have lost their motivational effect in the past. On this day, Qu Wan received bad news, and it was not the same.

The first thing I arrived at was news from Wuguan.

It was a logistics escort team that set out from Wuguan to replenish food and weapons for the army ahead. The food and weapons did not come, but just arrived at two messengers, which shocked Qu Wan.

The troops of the First Division of the First Division of the First Army of the Young Guards of the Han Army suddenly appeared outside Wuguan and launched a fierce attack on Wuguan. Wuguan was in danger. After receiving the news, the chief general of the escort army immediately led his 3,000 troops to transfer to Wuguan to rescue. The two of them came to deliver letters. As for the food and grass escorts from the large number of civilians, they were still advancing halfway towards Sanchuan County, losing the protection of the troops. It is now unwilling to care whether they can be successfully achieved on this enemy land. Compared with losing these logistical supplies, the gains and losses of Wuguan will affect the lives of hundreds of thousands of troops.

However, this is only the first one.

Qu Wan had not digested the news yet, and the second and third messengers had already arrived. This was from Chu State. The news brought by Qu Wan was almost breathless.

The Han army launched a large-scale entry against Chu State, but Pengcheng was lost and the defending general Liu An was killed. The Second Front Army of the Han State took Cui Chengxiu's 18th Army as the vanguard and had already penetrated into the Chu territory.

Jiangdong County was in danger. The Han army's inland river naval division suddenly attacked and wiped out the Chu Navy in one fell swoop. Jiangdong County had no power to restrain the Han Navy along the Yangtze River. Under the transportation of the Navy, the Han army landed at several riverside locations in Jiangdong County. Now, except for Jiangdong County, most parts of Jiangdong County have completely fallen.

On the Dabashan defense line, the Second Front Army of the Han Army, led by Deputy Chief Bai Yucheng, was attacking fiercely day and night, and the defense line was almost collapsed.

Those from Wuguan were in a hurry, but those from the country were urging him to withdraw his troops immediately and return to the country. When these messengers set off, Yingdu probably didn't know that Wuguan was also attacked.

At this time, Qu Wan finally understood that the Qin and Han dynasties had already colluded, and the Han Dynasty's strategy was obvious at this time, that was, to destroy the Chu State in one fell swoop. The troops attacking Chu State, Dabashan and Pengcheng were the main forces of the Second Front Army, and the young guards were attacking Wuguan. The attack from Jiangdong County Waterway was the main forces of the First Front Army, which was supposed to fight against the Qin Army and Wang Jian's troops.

The collusion between Qin and Han Dynasty created a series of illusions to deceive Chu, making the Chu people mistakenly believe that the Han people must take advantage of the chaos in Qin to attack Qin in order to destroy Qin in one fell swoop under this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It is precisely based on this judgment that the Chu State was determined to get a share of the big drama of Han destroying Qin.

But when the curtain slowly opened, the Chu State, which was originally a hunter and a fisherman, suddenly discovered that it had become the fish on the felt board, and it was about to be slaughtered.

The Han Dynasty played a big game of chess.

"General, withdraw your troops quickly! If Wuguan is lost, we will be locked in the southern part of Qin." The generals under our command were all dissatisfied. The importance of Wuguan to them was self-evident. Without Wuguan, they would have no way out, no food and supplies, and weapons replenishment. On the territory of the enemy, destruction would be a matter of a blink of an eye.

He took a deep breath and calmed down himself. He would be the courage of soldiers. If he showed a panic look, he would be afraid that his army would be in chaos and would be defeated without fighting.

"Retreat naturally requires retreating, but don't forget that there are nearly 70,000 or 80,000 troops and Xuanyiwei in front of us now. How can we leave as long as we want? If we are not fully prepared, retreating rashly will be a disaster. I'm afraid that we will be defeated by the Qin army if we can't get through Wuguan." Qu Wan looked at the generals and said slowly.

The generals present also understood this truth, but whenever they thought of the consequences of the loss of Wuguan, everyone was still worried.

"Even if we want to leave, we have to attack the Qin people hard before we can leave. They dare not come and pester us or pursue us." Qu Wan looked at everyone, "Even though it was caught off guard, the terrain of Wuguan is dangerous and not so easy to take over. We have sufficient troops in Wuguan. In order to make the attack sudden, the Han army only appeared under Wuguan for the time being, and the first division of the First Army of the Young Guards. The troops were similar to Wuguan. I believe that Zhang Gan will definitely support us until we return."

"So, in this battle, we not only want to fight, but also fight beautifully and simply."

The generals slowly calmed down as Qu Wan's words. Yes, if they did not defeat the Qin army in front of them, there would be no question of returning to the army to rescue them.

"The General has ordered that it is not too late. We must gather all our strength to defeat the Qin army in front of us in one fell swoop." The generals stood up and pleaded loudly.

Footsteps sounded outside the house, and an officer strode in and saluted Qu Wan: "General, an envoy from the Qin army is here."
