Chapter 248 Change

After withdrawing his troops, Fusu summoned all the generals to his tent and asked them to talk about their views on the battle on the first day. This time, Meng Tian and other generals did not sit in the central army with Fusu.

Instead, they went to the front line to command, so they got more detailed information than Fusu. Fusu wanted them to tell him about the Chu army's actions so that he could come up with a strategy that could deal with the Chu army to the maximum extent.

Han Xin first said: "Your Majesty, the general never thought that the Chu army would be so powerful in the battle with our army today. They have only been soldiers for a few years, but now they have no difficulty in commanding. This makes me

The forward troops of the army were deeply trapped in it, and ultimately lost nearly 10,000 people. If we had known that the Chu army was like this, we would not have let the forward troops go deep alone."

Meng Tian also said: "And in today's battle, I found that the Chu army's central army only moved slightly when I attacked on both wings. Obviously they still have reservations. We still can't know how strong the Chu army is now."

Learned."

With these two generals speaking first, the other generals no longer concealed their inner thoughts, and all told Fusu that the Chu army was not easy to deal with and how many soldiers under their command had been damaged.

Such words made Fusu frown repeatedly. Meng and Han said this in a targeted manner, but these generals were completely

Bragging about the enemy's strength may be because all the officers and soldiers took the Chu people too lightly before coming to Chu, so they became fearful when encountering setbacks. Fusu knew that if they were allowed to continue talking like this, these

Once the words were heard by the soldiers, they would definitely affect the morale of the soldiers, so they said: "Isn't there anything that is beneficial to us?"

At this time, Zhang Han, who had been silent until now, spoke. He actually did not go to the front line today, but was arranging the mobilization of troops from behind, so he did not really see how powerful the Chu people were: "The last general has not gone to the battlefield, but

Judging from the casualties of our army, they are only ten thousand

There are only many people, and most of these casualties are caused by the forward troops falling into the enemy's formation without checking for a while, so the general believes that the Chu army's combat power is not as strong as we thought, and we can rely on our superiority in strength to slow down

Slowly drag down the Chu army."

Fusu was overjoyed at first after hearing this, but then he shook his head and said: "No, our army is attacking Chu this time while the Huns on the grassland are in civil strife and are unable to come south. If we delay in Chu,

For too long, the Xiongnu will definitely take the opportunity to attack once the civil strife is over, and then we will be in the disadvantageous position of facing the enemy, so we cannot delay and think of ways to win a quick victory."

When everyone heard that they wanted to fight quickly, they all showed embarrassment. It is true that although the Qin army has a certain advantage in terms of military strength, the Chu army is not weak at all. It is not possible to defeat them as soon as possible. Fusu looked at

Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, he felt helpless in his heart. He didn't know that haste makes waste, but the situation forced him to do this. Seeing that the generals had no idea, Fusu had to let them

Return to camp to rest before fighting again the next day.

After everyone retreated, Han Xin suddenly turned around and said to Fusu: "Your Majesty, the general has thought of a way to defeat these 100,000 Chu troops."

"Oh? Please tell me and listen." Fusu was delighted. Fusu still believed in Han Xin's ability, otherwise he would not have been the founding minister of the Han Dynasty in history.

Han Xin hesitated for a moment before saying: "Compared with the Chu army, our biggest advantage lies in our military strength. However, due to the geographical limitations of this place, it is impossible for our army's 200,000 troops to go into battle together. This allows the Chu army to use its strengths and avoid its weaknesses."

, fought against us with fewer soldiers and horses than ours. In fact, the reason why they were able to do this was that they were helped by the rules on the battlefield..." At this point, Han Xin stopped talking and looked at Fusu. Fusu was very surprised.

He looked at Han Xin strangely: "General Han, please continue talking."

Han Xin said: "What the general said next may be disrespectful to the sages, so I ask for your forgiveness, Your Majesty."

Fusu had a wry smile on his face. Unexpectedly, he stopped because of me, and hurriedly motioned for him to continue. Then Han Xin continued: "What they rely on is the rules of fighting for the people of the Central Plains since the third generation. In two hundred years

Many years ago, the countries in the Central Plains were at war. The two sides only attacked the enemy on one side, and did not stop or pursue the enemies who fled. They opened the net on three sides. However, in the past hundred years, due to the laissez-faire war between the countries,

, coupled with the increase in hatred, some people finally began to attack the enemy from both sides at the same time, but they also allowed the retreating enemy to retreat in order to open up a wider net. This is how our Qin army fought with the Chu people today.

.But this allows the Chu army to confront me calmly with less than half of our army. I think this is really pedantic. Since we are on the battlefield, defeating the enemy should be our top priority.

, no benevolence and righteousness can restrain our hands and feet, so I thought of asking Huang Shang to send a group of troops to bypass the Chu army and attack the Chu army at the same time with my army on three sides. In this way, our army's advantage in strength can be

It was fully reflected, and the Chu army was bound to be in chaos without taking any precautions, and was defeated by our army here. But doing so is contrary to the way of war, so I dare not raise it in public."

After hearing what Han Xin said, Fusu wanted to give himself a slap in the face. He also said that he had traveled from the 21st century and was so ignorant that he would not think of being surrounded by enemies until Han Xin came to ask him.

Obviously, he has been in this era for too long and has gradually lost the modern thinking in his mind. So Fusu hurriedly said: "The strategy proposed by General Han is indeed a clever way to defeat the enemy. I don't think it is

An offense against the ancestors is a kind of transcendence against them. The form of war at that time was completely different from today. How can we remain unchanged? As long as we can defeat the enemy, let alone surround the enemy on all sides, even if it is an ambush from all sides, it is

Just do it as a matter of fact." As soon as the words came out, Fusu felt dumbfounded. This ambush from all sides was Han Xin's last resort to deal with Xiang Yu in Gaixia. Unexpectedly, he would bring it up now.

Han Xin was very touched when he saw that Fusu not only adopted his suggestions, but also praised him greatly. He had always thought that his deviant ideas would not be approved by others. So Han Xin said: "Since the Emperor

Agreeing to do this, the minister asked for orders to lead an army of soldiers and horses to quietly bypass the Chu army. When my Qin army was fighting with the Chu army, he rushed from behind and rushed to the back of the Chu army, thus defeating it in one fell swoop."

Fusu nodded and said: "I'm sure. You can set out tomorrow while our army is fighting with the Chu army. I have already let the scouts explore the roads near here. You can go and find them as guides. And once

As soon as you arrive behind the Chu army, I will launch the strongest offensive with a chain of horses, forcing the Chu army to go all out and leaving its rear empty. This way you will be able to attack the Chu army's rear more smoothly."

Han Xin hurriedly agreed, and the conversation between the two changed the war between the Qin and Chu armies again.

Early the next morning, the Qin army sent out troops to attack the Chu army camp as before. The Chu army also used a normal formation to resist the enemy. Both sides still suffered damage, but it seemed that the Qin army suffered more casualties.

Since the Chu army was on the defensive side, the casualties were relatively small. However, what the Chu people did not expect was that Han Xin and his 30,000 troops had quietly left the Qin camp and started from the side road to the rear of the Chu army.

After the Chu army retreated, Xiang Yu also called several important generals to his tent. He said with a smile on his face: "After these two days of fighting, I can already see that the Qin army is not as good as our Chu army in combat strength.

On the same level, but in terms of fighting spirit, our Chu army officers and soldiers are fighting for the people of Chu, and they will definitely be stronger than these Qin people who are expeditionary against Chu, and there are threats from the Huns to the north. So I think we will attack starting tomorrow

It’s time.”

Long Qie advised from the side: "Overlord, the Qin army was repelled by us and suffered more casualties than me. The reason is that the geographical location here cannot allow all their armies to go into battle. It is not that their strength is really not as good as mine."

In our humble opinion, it is better to hold our position and let the Qin army attack, so that we can slowly eat away at their strength and also delay the Qin army."

Xiang Yu shook his head and said: "I don't want to be attacked head-on by the Qin army without fighting back again. If this is the case, why don't we retreat back to the city? With the high wall of Surabaya as a cover, our army's casualties can be reduced a lot.

.You must know that the reason why I ordered the entire army to come out of the city is to have a happy battle with the Qin army."

When the other generals saw that someone like Long Qie, who was highly valued by Xiang Yu, was also refuted by Xiang Yu, they knew that Xiang Yu was determined to fight the Qin army this time, so they had to remain silent. Seeing this, Xiang Yu said: "Since everyone

They all agreed, then I will arrange the generals who will attack the Qin army's camp tomorrow..." Then he announced the names of each general and asked them to each lead their troops to attack which side of the Qin army. Dozens of generals all

After the arrangements were made, Xiang Yu said: "Long Qi, you can take the rest of the troops and stay with me in the middle of the army to ensure everything is in place."

Long Qie knew that Xiang Yu was still angry at this time and would not listen to his suggestions, so he could only accept the order.

The third day of the decisive battle between the two sides finally arrived. The Qin soldiers quickly ran out of the camp under the leadership of their respective generals, but the first thing they saw was the rows of cavalry covered in armor.

Even they have only heard of the chain horse but have never seen it. On both sides of the chain horse are light cavalry wearing leather armor. They are used to cooperate with the chain horse. Once an enemy is rushed by the chain horse, they will be scattered.

, these light cavalry can annihilate enemies from the side in a flexible fighting form.
