Chapter 83 Encountered Difficulties

The former Bashui Qinying is located in the eastern part of the current Xi'an City, and the former Xianyang site is located in the west of Xi'an. Lantian Daying is located in the southern part of Xi'an and Xianyang.

The Bashui Qinying happened to be on the west bank of the Bashui River (now Xi'an City probably has an estimated location in the east)

When Fan Kuai and Xia Houying approached the Qin camp of Bashui, the spy sent came to report that a Qin cavalry was coming to the army.

Xia Houying asked about how many people there were in this cavalry, and did the other party know the arrival of our army.

The spy couldn't explain clearly. There were about a thousand Qin cavalry, who were rushing towards Liu Bang's army quickly.

Fan Kuai was overjoyed after hearing this: "I searched for him for most of the day, but I didn't see the shadow of the Qin army. Xia Houying, why not take two thousand cavalry over here and eat this Qin cavalry first?"

Xia Houying frowned, as if thinking about something. Logically speaking, his 30,000 troops were approaching the Qin camp in a mighty manner, and the Qin general should have already received news from the scout.

Why...it's only been moving now?

What a strange thing! Could it be that the Qin army wanted to ambush our army?

Xia Houying said: "Don't act rashly! The Qin army cannot have not received the news of our army's arrival. I am afraid that the pockets have been set up now and we will get in."

Fan Kuai looked disdainful: "The Qin army is incompetent. Do you think it was the former Qin army? You can see that the Qin army is indeed vulnerable!"

Xia Houying shook her head and said dissatisfied: "The Qin army in Yuguan is a little different from the Qin army we met before, so it is better not to be careless."

Fan Kuai was so angry that he was so angry that he hadn't hit him yet. Before he could hit him, his aura was already three points weaker. I was afraid of a bird, just hit him.

But although Fan Kuai is big and not a mindless person, he also knows clearly what negative impact it will bring if the main and general are not in harmony now.

He suppressed his anger in his heart and said in a voice: "Then what do you think should be done? Can you let his Qin cavalry rush over?"

Xia Houying thought for a while, then said, "Don't go forward blindly. We should send multiple scouts to learn about all the situations near Bashui, know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles!"

"I suspect that his Qin army is to lure him... Let them go back and forth and see what the Qin army wants. We also need to determine whether the main force of the Qin army is in the Bashui Qin camp."

Fan Kuai rolled his eyes and stopped talking. Although he was very frustrated, what Xia Houying said was indeed impossible to find any problems.

The army walked forward for another two or three miles and heard the sound of horse hooves in front of him. When the Qin cavalry was less than a hundred meters away from the Liu Bang army's cavalry formation, everyone raised the Qin crossbow in their hands.

"Swish swish swish swish swish swish swish..."

Thousands of arrows flew into the Liu Bang cavalry formation. However, the distance was a little far and the number of people was small. These arrows were all knocked to the ground by the knights led by Fan Kuai.

"Hmph! It's just a trick of the devil. Xia Houying, can you let them shit on our heads?"

Xia Houying wanted to take out a few walnuts and stuff them into Fan Kuai's mouth to replenish his brain: "Fan Kuai, no matter how stupid the chief general of the Qin army is, he will not send a thousand elite cavalry to die in vain. There must be a fraud among them!"

At this time, the Qin cavalry stopped thirty or forty meters away from Liu Bang's army, and did not attack, but just took crossbows and shot arrows.

Without the order of the commander to attack, tens of thousands of cavalry were beaten by more than a thousand Qin cavalry and could only defend themselves.

I'm afraid I won't make a big joke

Fan Kuai said angrily: "No! I can't stand it anymore. Xia Houying, even if we ignore them, we have to drive this Qin cavalry away first. What do you mean?"

Xia Houying glanced at the nearby terrain a few circles: "Send three thousand cavalry to drive away this cavalry army later, don't chase it."

Then he pointed to a tall hill not far away and said, "Tonight, my army will set up camp here. If our army is united, then no matter how many tricks the Qin army plays, it will not do anything to us."

"When the scout reports the specific location of the main force of the Qin army, it will not be too late for our army to set out again!"

Fan Kuai shook the horse whip and said a little dissatisfied: "I will listen to you."

"Get out of the line of three thousand cavalry and follow me to annihilate the ignorant Qin army!"

"Here!"

Fan Kuai took the lead, followed by three thousand knights behind him, and rushed quickly to the more than a thousand Qin cavalry that were only a few dozen meters away.

The chief general of this Qin cavalry is Ying Jingyu, the eldest son of the Qin Dynasty. Ying Jingyu saw that the other party had begun to fight back.

He shouted: "All the generals obey the orders and return to Bashui!"

"Yes, young master!"

Before Fan Kuai's army could rush out twenty meters, the Qin army opposite had all turned their horses and fled to the north.

Fan Kuai was stunned. It was really strange. Moreover, Fan Kuai found that this Qin cavalry seemed a little different. What was the difference? The opponent's cavalry was very quick and flexible in adjusting the horses.

But it was far away and I couldn't see clearly what the cleverness was. When Fan Kuai pursued the Qin army for four or five miles, he raised his right hand and asked the three thousand cavalry behind him to stop chasing.

If you move forward, you will be afraid you will really fall into the Qin army ambush circle

Then he led the cavalry to the main force of the army. After joining the Xia Houying army, Fan Kuai sighed: "It's true that something is strange. I didn't expect that the Qin army in Guanzhong would be so cunning."

Xia Houying smiled and nodded, "General Fan, don't worry, the main force of the Qin army in Guanzhong is in Lantian, and no matter how many Qin troops there are on the water, it is almost the same as our army."

"And the Qin army lacks war horses. As long as our army is not dispersed, the Qin army will have no choice. And we just need to wait for news about the main force of the Qin army."

Fan Kuai nodded in agreement: "Maybe the Qin army in Lantian has been destroyed by his lord, I am afraid that it is already under Xianyang City at this time. And we are still playing hide-and-seek games with the Qin army, alas..."

Xia Houying stopped replying and shouted: "All the generals obey the order! Our army will stay under the mound ahead tonight and wait for the Qin army to be wiped out tomorrow!"

After hearing this, the army was a little depressed. Everyone thought that the Qin army had sunset, and they had a strong heart in their hearts to destroy the Qin army in one fell swoop.

But I was actually tricked by a thousand Qin cavalry just now, and the sharpness in the army suddenly went down a few points.

"Here!"

This "now" response made the second general Xia Houying quite dissatisfied, and there was no momentum to say.

But it is not the time to criticize the army. He led the troops to the mound to camp next to the mound.

...

At this time, Ying Jingyu led a thousand elite Qin cavalry to the north. Seeing that Liu Bang's cavalry had not chased him, he stopped after pulling the horse and stopped.

Ying Jingyu frowned deeply. Liu Bang's army was not as stupid as he thought. He wanted to separate the cavalry and infantry of this army and ambush and annihilate them separately.

But my trick was discovered by the other party. What's strange is that these thousands of riders only chased after a while and then returned to their horses and retreated. It seems that Liu Bang was indeed not as simple as luck in his ability to penetrate Guanzhong.

Still underestimating the enemy's ability

At this time, a powerful female voice sounded beside Ying Jingyu: "Young Master, Liu Bang's army has not been trapped. What should we do?"

Ying Jingyu sighed lightly: "Some people underestimate the other party. The other party has 30,000 troops, while our party only has 30,000 troops. The number of cavalry is more than three times that of the enemy."

"If we attack head-on, we are afraid that our army will have no advantage at all. Even if we can barely annihilate the other side, our army will suffer heavy losses..."

Zheng Chan, wearing a red armor and red cloak, was heroic and riding on a snow-white tall horse, said:

"Since you can't fight head-on, is the young master planning to deal with it?"

After saying that, Sima Zhou and Li Nian, who were standing beside him, also came forward, wanting to hear how Ying Jingyu broke the situation
