Chapter 1060: Suspicions accumulated in the world, traces of Chi You
Blood is flowing freely on the land of Yanzhou. This is not only the largest battle since Liu Chi started the war, but also the most brutal battle. Such a frontal attack requires the most blood and fists. .
In the past, Xu Shiji used many tricks to avoid a head-on confrontation with Chi You. His troops marched in multiple directions and fought step by step, constantly consuming the already weak Chi You and making him even weaker. Most of the tactics he used were boiling frogs in warm water.
With cleverness and strength, there are actually not many really tough battles.
At this time, Chi You, who was at a disadvantage, wanted to fight a tough battle. Only by fighting a tough battle could he find an opportunity to win a quick victory. Moreover, Chi You's always strong fighting style also made him the most suitable for a tough battle.
If he follows Xu Shiji's lead, he will definitely lose.
However, in this last battle, what the Yellow Turban forces want is not just a hard fight, but a fight to the death. What they want to do is the kind of job where either you die or I die.
However, those who are brutal are afraid of those who are violent, and those who are violent are afraid of risking their lives.
The Yellow Turban forces were obviously desperate for their lives at this time, and Xu Shiji was even more unwilling to fight to the death with these desperate lunatics. So he worked hard, then weakened, and finally exhausted. Xu Shiji was waiting for the opponent's strength to weaken. .
However, even Xu Shiji still resisted and avoided the edge at all levels instead of directly fighting to the death with the opponent. However, this battle was still the most brutal battle since the war began.
The Yellow Turbans, which had decided to sink the ship, were like a monstrous wave with a height of dozens of meters, overwhelmingly pressing down on them. Many officers in the back row felt chills in their hearts when they saw it. They were sure that if they encountered such a strong offensive, they would probably be killed. In just a moment, the large army will be defeated and then flee in confusion.
However, under Xu Shiji's calm and calm command, the Han army continued to retreat, sidestep, change formations, and attack. Through dazzling formation changes, they perfectly eliminated the waves of waves, while their murderous intent soared into the sky. Let everyone's combat effectiveness instantly double.
What Zhang Dingbian is best at is fighting raids. Although he has made certain achievements in this kind of frontal confrontation, he is definitely not ignorant. But he is definitely not able to fight with Xu Shiji, the Ten Philosophers of the Martial Temple, in such a large-scale frontal battle. confrontational.
Those who are able to enter the martial arts temple and become famous are not famous for their miracles and risks.
Zhang Dingbian wanted to attack the Han army, but the news of 20,000 soldiers burning cauldrons and sinking boats could not be concealed from the Han army's spies. Therefore, this attack was essentially a storming battle. When he led his troops, he arrived At that time, Xu Shiji, who had received the news, was not completely prepared, but at least he was somewhat prepared. If this kind of attack war did not succeed in a short time, it would develop into a frontal confrontation war over time. .
"General, that old man Zhang Dingbian is so arrogant that he has joined four generals in our army! The last general asked for an order to kill that old man under his horse!" Xie Pilu burst into flames.
As long as these brothers didn't take action, no one in the army could be a match for that old man Zhang Dingbian.
"No! Wait a minute!" Xu Shiji said unmoved.
At this time, Xu Shiji was still waiting for news about Chi You. If Chi You didn't show up, there was still no way for Xu Shiji to completely let go.
Although everyone speculated that the target was probably Guan Yu, and because of Guan Yu's special identity, even if this was just a guess, they had to send Baima Yi, an elite force, to rescue him.
But Xu Shiji himself did not forget that this was just a guess. Since it was a guess, it could not be confirmed, nor could it be ruled out that Chi You had other goals.
Therefore, Xu Shiji did not dare to give up and fight.
Xie Wuyun was seriously injured in the battle before, and at this time, he was not on the front line.
It is precisely because of this that among the three sworn brothers of the Xie family in Xu Shiji's army, only Xie Lao Er and Xie Lao San are left.
Among the three sworn brothers, the strongest Xie Lao is not here. If he sends Xie Lao Er and Xie Lao San out again, then his military strength will be too empty.
Once Chi You's target is not Guan Yu, he actually regards him as his own target. Then, the strength of the Chinese army is empty. Because at this time, he leads the most elite Yellow Turban warriors to kill his Chinese army, it is very likely that he will be directly attacked. Play GG!
Therefore, before the news about Chi You came out, Xu Shiji still had to hold on to a firm hand no matter what.
Thinking about Xu Shiji, he once owned such a strong city as Jiangzhou City, but because of his instability, Wu Qi took advantage of him. The lessons of the past are still vivid in his mind, and Xu Shiji said that he can still be stable at this time.
"Order the scouts to spread out for another ten miles, and be sure to find traces of Chi You!"
Zhang Dingbian indeed hit hard enough, but Xu Shiji did not think that the opponent had the ability to last for a long time, let alone that the opponent could make a comeback.
Zhang Dingbian is not Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu was able to succeed because he had a large number of princes behind him.
"Historical Records of Zhang Er and Chen Yu Biography" also wrote, "Xiang Yu's troops were outnumbered on Zhang Han Yong Road, and Wang Li's army was short of food. Xiang Yu led his troops across the river and defeated Zhang Han. Zhang Han led his troops to relieve the enemy, and the princes' army dared to attack the siege. The Lu Qin army then captured Wang Li."
Xiang Yu's desperate efforts were the most direct factor in the success of this battle, but the subsequent army of princes was the straw that broke the camel's back.
Maybe there is Chi You behind Zhang Dingbian, but after all, Xu Shiji is still guarding against him!
Besides, the Qinghan Dynasty was not the Qin Dynasty at that time!
Rather than saying that Zhang Han was forced to surrender to Xiang Yu and was defeated by Xiang Yu, it would be better to say that Zhang Han was actually defeated by his own people.
According to the records of "Historical Records: Moon Table between Qin and Chu", in December of the third year of Qin II (207 BC), Xiang Yu defeated the Qin army under the giant deer. In the first month, he captured Wang Li, and in the second month, he defeated Zhang Han. , defeated Zhang Han again in April, but it was not until July that Zhang Han asked for an alliance with Xiang Yu because he thought he was suspicious of the court. Xiang Yu accepted the paralysis of Zhang Han on the surface, and then launched a surprise attack, but still failed to eliminate Zhang Han .
From this we can see that even after repeated defeats, the strength of Zhang Han's army cannot be underestimated. At the final alliance, Zhang Han, who killed Xiang Yu's uncle Xiang Liang, actually became King Yong, and was on an equal footing with Xiang Yu's immediate boss, King Chu Huai.
In short, Great Qin at that time probably really should have died.
If the imperial court at the rear had been more powerful, facing a scattered coalition of princes, if Zhang Han's final choice was not to surrender, but to fight to the end, it is really unclear who would win and who would lose!
