General Qin

"Xiang Qu, your mother and maid."

"Xiang Yan has no descendants, and Chu general Xiang Qu is the son of others."

"Xiang Qu's son is also the illegitimate son of others."

...

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

In the Chu army's camp, Xiang Qu's ears seemed to still be filled with vicious insults.

In a fit of rage, he picked up the wooden case where the map and bamboo slips were placed, and slammed it towards the tent door.

Jing Tong heard Xiang Qu roaring outside, and was about to enter the tent to comfort him.

As soon as he opened the curtain, he saw a huge wooden table flying towards him, Jing Tong screamed, and jumped to the side amidst the lightning and flint, narrowly avoiding the throwing of the wooden table.

boom!

Under Xiang Qu's huge throw, the wooden case was smashed into several pieces.

"If I hadn't jumped so fast, hiss..."

Jing Tong was sweating profusely. If he was hit by this thing, his legs and feet would probably be broken on the spot.

Fortunately, at this moment, after Xiang Qu finished breaking the wooden case, part of his anger subsided, and seeing Jing Tong coming in, he suppressed his anger and said, "Zi Tong, you have heard the insults from those Qin people, right? These people speak so viciously." , it really doesn’t make sense.”

The corners of Jing Tong's mouth twitched. Seeing that Xiang Qu's face was flushed with anger, he didn't want to say anything more, so he could only echo: "What the general said is that those Qin people hurt people with vicious words, they are really shameless."

Although he said it, Jing Tong was actually speechless.

Obviously it is you, General Xiang, who wants to send someone to insult Zhao Tuo and the generals of the Qin army, and give them a violent method, so that the aggressive Qin people cross the river to fight.

Unexpectedly, the people of Qin didn't have any shit, they just sent a group of people along the river to curse back, and in the end they yelled at you angrily.

What is this?

"Qin Jun didn't know what he came up with, but he was able to transmit his voice so far."

Jing Tong was still a little puzzled, because although the Qin and Chu armies scolded each other across the Sui River, the Chu army obviously couldn't scold the Qin army.

The main reason is that those Qin people who scolded were holding a strange-looking thing in their hands, which not only could transmit the sound very far, but also was very clear and loud.

Even if the Chu people shouted hoarsely, they could not suppress the Qin people's cursing. If there was a favorable wind, the cursing could even spread to the military camp along the river in Fulisai.

But now is obviously not the time to worry about these things, Jing Tong said in a low voice: "General, Zhao Tuo is really very cunning, and he has no intention of crossing the river at all. No matter how much the general provokes him, I'm afraid it won't be of any use."

"Well, this Zhao Tuo is indeed difficult to deal with. Now we have been confronting him for more than half a month. If we can't find a way to defeat him, our country of Chu will not be able to survive."

Xiang Qu gritted his teeth, he was really anxious.

Jing Tong was silent.

In the past few days, the rations transported to Suishui from the rear were obviously less than at the beginning.

Most of Chu's food and grass were transported to the front line of Chen Ying, which was barely enough for Xiang Yan's 400,000 troops to feed, and the food stock was getting less and less.

If Xiang Qu can't defeat Zhao Tuo's army and open up the grain transportation channel on the east bank of Suishui River, then the life span of Chu State may only be the last two months.

At the beginning of spring, the food and fodder of the Chu people were exhausted, the morale of the army was dispersed, and they collapsed. The Qin army will take advantage of the situation to hide and kill, and the Chu state will not escape the fate of extinction for eight hundred years.

"I heard that Chen Ying's supervisor, Jin Xia, has urged Ling Yin to send troops to attack Wang Jian several times, but Ling Yin stopped him. Jin Xia's words may be the meaning of the king."

Jing Tong opened his mouth, talking about the news from Chen Ying.

Xiang Qu's face was bright red.

He said bitterly: "Wang Jian is an old turtle, extremely treacherous. My father has fewer troops than him. If he takes the initiative to attack, he may be defeated. Now if he wants to save our country of Chu, the only way is to defeat the little turtle Zhao Tuo on the other side of the Sui River."

"Zitong, if he doesn't come over, then I will go over!"

Jing Tong opened his eyes wide and said in surprise, "General Xiang, you want to cross the river?"

"Of course, this time I have my own strategy to defeat the enemy!"

A cold light flashed in Xiang Qu's eyes.

...

A few days later, the land of Eastern Chu.

Prime Minister, where the fief of the Xiang family is located.

Xiang Yue, who was nearly eight feet tall, was dressed all over his body, stepped on his horse, and looked back at the five thousand soldiers who had been assembled behind him.

This is the last batch of soldiers squeezed out from the entire land of Eastern Chu.

Among them, a thousand soldiers of his Xiang clan, the most elite force in the Xiang clan, are going to save the fate of Chu State now.

"I will lead the troops to Pengcheng to cut off the back of the Qin people."

"Xiang Liang, Xiang Chan, after I leave, you should be very careful. If the battle goes against you, you must protect my Xiang family's blood."

Xiang Yue spoke in a deep voice, even though he was leading his troops to the expedition, his mouth was full of disappointment.

The two young men Xiang Liang and Xiang Chan hurriedly agreed.

Xiang Yue is the nephew of Lingyin Xiangyan and the cousin of Xiang Liang and others. He is the only person in Xiang's younger generation who can lead troops into battle besides Xiang Qu.

When Xiang Yan and Xiang Qu led the troops to the expedition, Xiang Yue stayed in the prime minister to protect the family. Now that the country is in danger of being overthrown, after receiving Xiang Qu's letter, he can only take the last batch of recruited soldiers to the battlefield.

When everyone was saying goodbye to each other, a boy in the crowd heard Xiang Yue's words and shouted: "Why did uncle say such depressing words? When you lead troops to go out, you must go forward bravely and defeat all enemies! An Neng used this ominous Words of encouragement!"

Xiang Yue looked sideways, and saw that the speaker was a boy who was obviously taller than his peers, staring at him.

Just like his father.

Xiang Yue couldn't help laughing and said: "Ji'er is right, our army will definitely win this battle!"

As soon as the words came out, the boy showed a satisfied smile on his face, and everyone became happy.

However, when Xiang Yue turned his head and looked towards the direction of Pengcheng in the northwest, the smile that had just appeared on his face had disappeared, and his eyes were filled with deep worry.

Uncle Xiang Yan was confronting Qin General Wang Jian at Chenying, and his brother Xiang Qu was also leading 30,000 people to entangle Qin General Zhao Tuo in Suishui. The two battlefields could not tell the winner and could only be in a stalemate for a long time, but the national strength of Chu But he couldn't hold it anymore.

Therefore, Xiang Qu passed on a letter, asking him to take the 5,000 conscripts to go north along Surabaya and head straight for Pengcheng.

Pengcheng is a hub city, and it is also where Zhao Tuo's Qin army supplies food and grass.

As long as Xiang Yue can take down Pengcheng, he doesn't even need to take down Pengcheng. He only needs to lead his troops to block the road leading southward from Pengcheng to Suishui, so that the Qin army's food road by the Suishui can be cut off, and the Qin army under Zhao Tuo's command will fall into a trap. The danger of food shortage.

When the Qin army was shocked, it was easy to be taken advantage of by Xiang Qu. He led the Chu army across the river to defeat the Qin army, and completely opened up the connection between the east of Suishui and the battlefield of Chenying, so that the grain from the east could be transported to Chenying, extending the The time when Chu State fell.

Xiang Qu's tactics are very good, but...

"Can elder brother really defeat that Zhao Tuo?"

Xiang Yue was very worried.

In the shadow of a famous tree, Zhao Tuo defeated Zuo Sima Zhaoping of Chu State with few victories and many victories, and turned around and defeated 100,000 Qi troops in Zhencheng. How can such a record make people worry and wonder whether Xiang Qu can win the first battle.

Especially when Xiang Yue looked back at the soldiers recruited behind him, his eyes became more worried.

Among the 5,000 soldiers, except for 1,000 clan soldiers who were quite elite, the other 4,000 people stood crookedly, with different heights, and their armor was even more incomplete. Most of them had mournful expressions on their faces.

A mob.

But there was no other way. The Chu State stationed 400,000 troops on the Huaibei battlefield. These people were already the last batch of soldiers he could recruit.

...

The messenger from the east galloped all the way into the Chu army camp near Fulisai, and delivered the news that Eastern Chu sent 5,000 troops to the general Xiang Qu.

"General Xiang's strategy is very clever. The Eastern Chu soldiers attacked Pengcheng and cut off Zhao Tuo's food road. Zhao Tuo could only let the generals under his command lead his troops back to Pengcheng and confront the Eastern Chu soldiers to ensure the smooth flow of food roads. As a result, the number of Qin troops on the banks of the Sui River will be even smaller, far inferior to ours."

Jing Tong looked excited and said: "The general's action is in line with the law of war. I specialize and the enemy divides. I specialize for one and the enemy divides into ten. If ten attack one, we will be many and the enemy few. If you can use If everyone attacks the widows, then our place will make an appointment with the fighters!"

"Our army already has more troops than Zhao Tuo, and now the general has ordered Eastern Chu to send troops to further disperse Zhao Tuo's troops, so our army will have a greater advantage!"

"Furthermore, the Pengcheng Liang Road behind the Qin army was attacked. The soldiers must be worried, the morale of the army is unstable, and the combat power is greatly reduced. This is also our army's opportunity! General Xiang, he is worthy of being the son of Ling Yin!"

Jing Tong praised from the bottom of his heart that Xiang Qu's strategy conforms to the art of war and is highly feasible. It can indeed greatly enhance the odds of the Chu army's victory, allowing him to see the possibility of defeating Zhao Tuo for the first time.

Xiang Qu smiled.

After knowing that Zhao Tuo would raid Fengfei, why did Xiang Yan send Xiang Qu to lead the army, because Xiang Qu is his son?

No, it's just because Xiang Qu, who was influenced by Xiang Yan since he was a child, is already the most war-fighting group of people in the whole country when the generals in Chu State are scarce and withered.

Familiar with the art of war, with a strategy in mind, he is far more responsible than the young people of Qu Jingzhao's third clan. That's why Xiang Yan entrusted Xiang Qu with the important task of facing the enemy Qin general Zhao Tuo.

Xiang Qu is indeed very strategic. When he set off from Chen Ying's army, he predicted in advance the confrontation with Zhao Tuo in Suishui.

Therefore, at that time, they sent people to Xiang's hometown overnight to serve as prime minister, and asked his cousin Xiang Yue to forcibly recruit a group of soldiers in the land of Eastern Chu, and waited for his order. He breaks the enemy and creates opportunities.

Sui Shui confronted, Xiang Qu wanted to lure Zhao Tuo to lead his army to cross the river, but the other party was not fooled. Although he was angry and annoyed, he did not give up, because Xiang Qu still had Xiang Yue, an amazing soldier!

With just fit, with strange victory.

"It's not enough! Even if Zhao Tuo sends troops north to Pengcheng, he may still have 20,000 troops in Suishui. In this way, our army is only 10,000 more than him, and the chances of winning are not great enough."

Xiang Qu was not proud. From the artillery battle in Huaibei to the present confrontation in Suishui, after several rounds of confrontation, he had already seen Zhao Tuo's difficulties.

Although he was furious, he attached great importance to Zhao Tuo.

"There are nearly 10,000 troops stationed at the border of Xiangyi. Send me 5,000 troops. After our army crosses the Sui River, we will attack Zhao Tuo together!"

"And I will boost morale, burn the boat and break the cauldron, and go forward indomitably!"

"Sun Tzu's Art of War Nine Lands": Burning a boat and breaking a cauldron is like driving a flock of sheep.

"Historical Records: Biography of Huozhi": To the east of Pengcheng, Xiapi, Donghai, Wu, Guangling, this is also Eastern Chu.

Xiaxiang is east of Pengcheng and southeast of Xiapi, so it should be the land of Eastern Chu.

Xiang Yu is known as the overlord of Western Chu, probably because his capital is Pengcheng, which is in the territory of Western Chu.
