Chapter five hundred and fiftieth chapters go out to Chang'an again
After three days of preparation, Lin Ze left Chang'an City again with an army of 200,000.
As before, Hu Hai sent Lin Ze out of the city, but this time, there was no worry or expectation in Hu Hai's eyes.
He just wanted Lin Ze to leave quickly and give him enough time to grow and make plans.
Hu Hai even thought that it would actually be a good outcome for Lin Ze to lead his troops and stay outside forever to resist foreign enemies.
This time, in addition to bringing along Han Xin who led the troops, Wu Fan who was inquiring about intelligence, and Qianyuan who was in charge of logistics, Lin Ze also brought along Chen Ping, who had been staying in Chang'an all year round.
The reason why Chen Ping was brought along was firstly because of Chen Ping's strong request, and secondly because Lin Ze had never understood the whole story of Li Si's rebellion and always felt that Zhao Gao was a little weird.
It wasn't that Lin Ze thought it was too dangerous for Chen Ping to stay in Chang'an, but he thought that in order to lure the snake out of the cave, he had to let it know that there was no danger outside the cave.
When the army was halfway through, Wu Fan had found out all the major events that had happened in the Kanto region during this period and presented them to Lin Ze.
Zhang Han led an army of 100,000 to ambush Xiang Liang, successfully killed Xiang Liang and defeated the 200,000 Chu army. Then Zhang Han went south to attack Chu, which coincided with the Chu State's new Jin Wu Xinjun Xiang Ji breaking through the Grand Master.
Zhang Han was defeated and his whereabouts were unknown. He was suspected to have died at the hands of Xiang Ji. Only a few thousand of the 100,000 Qin troops fled back.
Li Xin led an army of 100,000 to attack Zhao. In the early stage, he was unstoppable and defeated the Zhao army three times. When he arrived at Handan City, something unexpected happened when he was about to destroy Zhao.
There was a strong man from Sishui County named Liu Bang, who, under the banner of avenging Chen She and recovering Zhang Chu, gathered tens of thousands of Zhang Chu's remnant troops and led his troops to rescue Zhao.
At the same time, Qi King Tian Dan sent Tian Rong to lead 100,000 Qi troops to rescue Zhao.
The three parties combined a total of 400,000 troops. With the enemy outnumbered and ourselves outnumbered, Li Xin suffered several unfavorable battles and had to retreat to Chen County to wait for opportunities.
The remaining armies of Qi Zhao and Zhang Chu took the opportunity to divide their territory and besieged Chen County.
Speaking of this, Wu Fan added another sentence: "According to a secret report from the Jinyi Guards, Xiang Ji, the new grand master of Chu State, personally led an army of 80,000 people to the north and came to Chen County with great momentum."
"Liu Bang? Is this the one Liu Ji changed his name to?" Lin Ze turned his head slightly to Wu Fan and asked.
Wu Fan fumbled for a piece of paper from his arms, read it, and read: "Liu Bang, whose real name is Liu Ji, is from Peixian County, Sishui County. He once..."
After reading this, Wu Fan suddenly stopped.
Lin Ze continued with a calm expression: "I was once a retainer of His Majesty, and returned to Peixian County on my order to do business. Then I got together with the remnants of the Six Kingdoms and conspired against Qin. Is that right?"
A trace of embarrassment appeared on Wu Fan's face, and he nodded: "What the Marquis said is roughly consistent with the intelligence records."
Lin Ze suddenly laughed: "Liu Ji, the new one, and Xiang Ji, who broke through to the master level, are all old acquaintances. It's getting more and more interesting."
Then his smile faded and he said calmly: "Send someone to contact Li Xin and tell him that I will be arriving soon, so he must hold on."
Wu Fan bowed slightly, rode away, and told his men to pass on the order.
Lin Ze thought for a moment, then summoned the messenger and ordered: "Tell Han Xin that the whole army will speed up the eastward march. I will hunt down Dongjun and teach Qi and Zhao an unforgettable lesson."
"As for Liu Bang and Chen She, is it still necessary for Zhang Chu to exist?"
Han Xin, who was in charge of the army, immediately issued numerous instructions after receiving Lin Ze's order, and then the army's marching speed increased by 30% in an instant.
The difference between military strategists and ordinary generals is that they have ways to make the army stronger at any time.
…
Chen Jun, Li Xin looked at the pile of battle reports on the table with a tired look on his face. As the head coach of the first army, he was under unimaginable pressure during this time.
The 400,000 allied troops of Qi, Zhao and Liu, who had listened to someone's advice, gradually encroached and could only travel thirty miles a day, no more, no less.
Li Xin held an army of 100,000 people, but he couldn't find any loopholes in the opponent's army. He tried several times and ended in failure.
He could almost predict the outcome. If there was no support, the army he led would only be forced into desperation bit by bit by the Qi, Zhao and Liu coalition forces.
At this moment, a soldier hurried to General Li Xin's camp, knelt on one knee and said: "Report to the general, the scout battalion captured several deserters in the south. According to the deserters, they were under General Zhang Han. Zhang Han
General Han led his army to attack Chu and suffered a huge defeat. General Zhang Han was not sure whether he was alive or dead, and his entire army of 100,000 men was wiped out."
When Li Xin heard this, he stood up in horror, his face extremely ugly. He originally wanted someone to notify his good brother Zhang Han to come back for help, but he didn't expect that something unexpected happened to him. It was really a leak in the house and it rained all night.
The soldier continued: "The scout camp general also said that the Chu army is very likely to go north. Please make plans in advance."
Li Xin remained silent, waved the soldiers to retreat, and fell into deep thought.
Faced with this difficult situation, Li Zhixin had a hint of retreat.
As a military general, he had never been afraid. During the six months in the Northern Army, every time he attacked the Hu people, he took the lead and led the army directly into the battle. Even though he was covered in scars every time, he would not frown at all.
But things are different now. He is the commander-in-chief of an army, and hundreds of thousands of troops are counting on him. As long as he makes a wrong decision, it may lead to the annihilation of the entire army.
This heavy sense of responsibility is what makes it difficult for Li Xin to make an easy decision.
Just when Li Xin was hesitating, a messenger ran in, knelt down on one knee, held up a document, and said with excitement: "General Qi, I just received the news sent by the commander-in-chief. The commander-in-chief personally led the two troops.
A hundred thousand troops will come to our aid soon, so the general must persist."
Li Xin was greatly relieved when he heard this. Lin Ze finally came with an army to support him.
In turn, Li Xin couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. He had always thought that Lin Ze was just luckier than him, relying on his sweet words to win the prince's appreciation. Now when he compared the two, he realized that Lin Ze was indeed better than him.
…
In Dongjun, Lin Ze stood at the front of the army and asked expressionlessly: "Perhaps you have found out the distribution of the Qi, Zhao and Liu coalition forces?"
Wu Fan cupped his hands and replied: "Back to the Marquis, my subordinates have just finished drawing the distribution map of the rebel forces, and followed the Marquis's previous instructions and handed it directly to General Han."
Lin Ze nodded slightly: "Okay, this big battle will be commanded by General Han. I will go and see how far the legendary son of the Red Emperor has grown now."
After that, the whole person rose into the sky, flew to the east, and disappeared.
"Son of the Red Emperor?" Wu Fan was a little confused after hearing this.
Then Wu Fan stopped thinking about it. The Marquis has always been mysterious and he would let himself know what he should know. Then he would naturally say that he shouldn't know what he should know. Asking too many questions would be bad.
My current task is to provide Han Xin with the latest and most accurate information and cooperate with him to defeat the rebels.
Han Xin, who was in the central army, continued to wave the flag of the herald after receiving clear information.
The 200,000-strong army was like a terrifying killing machine, turning crazily and heading towards the Qi, Zhao and Liu coalition forces who did not yet know that a powerful enemy was approaching.
Soon, the 200,000 Zhao troops in the far west discovered Han Xin's army coming to attack them fiercely.
The military officials of King Zhao hurriedly gathered their troops and rose up to fight.
However, all this was in vain. There was no conspiracy or fancy. The two hundred thousand troops were fully integrated and they directly collided with each other. If God blocked the enemy, it would kill the God. If the Buddha blocked the enemy, it would kill the Buddha.
A quarter of an hour later, the entire Zhao army collapsed, abandoning their helmets and armor, and were trampled to death in countless numbers.
Han Xin did not order a chase, but went towards the nearest Qi army to kill.
Then, the Qi army followed in the footsteps of the Zhao army and collapsed.
