After saying so much, everyone understood Wang Buxu's true purpose.

By setting up such a situation, the main force of the Chu army in Pengcheng was allowed to go out of the city to fight in the field.

To put it more clearly, after the Chu army left Pengcheng, through Wang Li, Han Xin's layout suddenly launched force to surround the Chu army from the rear.

In this case, there are 300,000 Han troops in front and 250,000 Han troops behind. The total number is 550,000. Can the Chu army escape?

As long as the main force of the Chu army is defeated, is it still necessary for Pengcheng to defend?

Does Chu State still have the capital to continue to survive?

This game can be said to be brilliant, but it cannot be said to be brilliant.

Whether he is smart or not depends on whether the Chu army will be fooled. If the Chu army defends Pengcheng and turns a blind eye to the situation in Suiyang, then Wang Buxu really has no choice but to advance step by step and then fight with the Chu army.

Pengcheng fights a tough battle.

And this kind of offensive battle involving hundreds of thousands of people is not something that can be done directly to attack the city.

Pengcheng cannot accommodate hundreds of thousands of garrison troops, so the two sides must fight outside the city first.

If you are lucky, the Chu army will fight you in the field first, and then rely on the city's defense blessing to fight you.

If you are unlucky, all the defenders will be crowded in the city, relying on the city as a cover to fight you below the city.

And you not only need to face the attack of the Chu army, but also defend against the harassment of bows and arrows from above your head.

What's even worse is that because there are a large number of defenders in the city, after this batch is defeated, a new batch will come out the next day.

Relying on this model will continuously consume your vitality and your morale.

Even if they can successfully win a round and prevent the Chu army from sending people out of the city, it will only be the second stage of the offensive at this time.

Siege warfare is still the battle mode with the most casualties.

Therefore, if the battle really comes to this point, even if the Han army can win, it will probably be a miserable victory.

…

Sishui County, Chengfu County.

In the Chengfu County Mansion, Han Xin sat in the high hall with an arrogant face, sweeping away the gloom in his heart.

Although it started off poorly, it's getting more and more comfortable now.

How comfortable is it?

When attacking Ku County, the scouts still made great achievements. They took advantage of the chaos to capture the city gate and let the army enter.

Although it was a pity, the siege force still captured more than 200 people. Then the Kuxian defenders surrendered and successfully captured Kuxian.

And Han Xin raided Ku County, mainly from the local nobles, and got a lot of money and food.

Further back in Qiao County, the scouts failed to open the city gate, but they created chaos inside the city and provided considerable convenience to the troops attacking the city outside the city.

In this battle, the Han army beheaded more than 800 people, which was another huge harvest.

As for the city father, because the opponent was already on guard, his actions were not as big as before, and he only assassinated the county magistrate and the county magistrate.

Because the county captain was always on the city wall and surrounded by troops, he had no chance to make a move, so he had no choice but to give up.

In this battle, the Han army beheaded a thousand people.

Today, it has been more than half a month since he sent out troops. Regardless of whether he has some or not, Han Xin has conquered four cities in a row, killing more than 2,000 enemies and losing less than 500 of his own.

And because Han Xin would collect some of the local surrendered troops every time he entered a city, so up to now, instead of decreasing, the number of troops under Han Xin had increased to nearly 60,000.

The most important thing is that the combat effectiveness of the newly joined 10,000 people can be guaranteed. At least among the Chu army, they are the middle and upper class.

"General, secret message from the king!"

Han Xin, who was enjoying the joy of victory, suddenly received a report from the scouts accompanying the army.

Han Xin couldn't help but put back his joy and took the secret report from the scout.

This pattern was normal in the Han army. If they wanted to keep it secret and be able to guarantee a certain speed, they would let the scouts deliver the message.

If you just want to move quickly, you can use the messenger to deliver it.

After confirming that the seal was sealed and that the mud seal on it had not been damaged, Han Xin opened the seal in front of the scouts, revealing a piece of silk cloth inside.

However, Han Xin did not open it, but waved his hand around.

The reason for doing this is to ensure that there is something inside the opened sealed bamboo tube.

As for the content, I'm sorry, even if you show it to him, he won't dare to take a look.

Everyone around them wisely retreated and started to be on guard around them.

Han Xin opened the secret message and read it carefully from beginning to end over and over again.

Sometimes excited, sometimes frowning.

He was excited and had a headache at the same time as Wang Buxu's request.

He had to mobilize his troops and then gave himself a more difficult task.

Although Han Xin also felt that the situation of the Chu army seemed to be a little different recently. It seemed that the enemy was getting weaker and weaker?

Are they all old, weak, sick and disabled?

And this secret letter told him the answer: the Chu army was about to fight the Han army in Pengcheng.

The Han army did not have enough troops, so it naturally had to draw its main force from the surrounding areas for a decisive battle.

But the King of Han obviously did not want to be led by the Chu army, so he wrote this secret letter.

Of course, everything has advantages and disadvantages, and if there are disadvantages, there are also advantages.

Although his main force will be taken away, at the same time, if he can obtain more military exploits in this situation, it will be able to demonstrate his ability even more.

Han Xin has endured humiliation and hardship for so many years, and what he likes to do most is not to admit defeat.

Otherwise, we wouldn’t have achieved what we have now.

The decisive battle is related to the future of Han and Chu, so he absolutely cannot keep the 50,000 people under his command.

Then if you continue to perform the task, you need to consider the problem from other aspects.

But now, apart from having no one, I have everything else I want.

After plundering the four counties, Han Xin's army now had more food and grass than he could eat. Even if an army of 100,000 people came, he could definitely eat it.

"Pass it to Jiagu!" Han Xin shouted toward the outside.

We are afraid of everything these days, but we are not afraid of food. As long as there is food, it is easy to build a team.

There are no elite soldiers, but the overall situation now is that there are peasant uprising armies everywhere in the world.

Even the Chu army only has so many real elites.

It is precisely for this reason that the Han army is invincible, because in front of the Han army that has undergone systematic and routine training, these peasant armies are simply not resistant to fighting.

The problem that Han Xin is facing now is nothing more than the lack of elites and forcing the level of his troops to the same level as the Chu army. Is this considered difficult?

Don't forget, Han Xin is an expert in military training. As long as he has a thousand soldiers, he will soon be able to train an elite army that is stronger than most of the Chu army.

Not long after, Jagu walked in covered in blood. This was left over from the previous attack on the city. It was all the enemy's blood and had not had time to be washed away.
