Fame.

In ancient times, without the Internet and mobile phones, it was mainly spread by word of mouth. The reason why King Liu Bang of Han had a good reputation was mainly because he was able to tolerate the so-called scholars who were idle, had nothing to do all day long, and ran around.

Because of the battle in Luoyang, Li Yuan suddenly became famous. This is like the nonsensical talent shows in later generations. You will never know which game will make you famous and which sentence will make you the focus of entertainment.

In comparison, the proposal of the seventeen princes and kings is outdated. After being spread for a while, people are annoyed by speaking and listening, while the new topic of Li Yuan can be maintained for a considerable period of time.

Invincible deeds.

A miracle of rising like grassroots.

There is also a relationship of unknown feelings with Princess Daqin.

There are so many stories that can be derived from Li Yuan, which makes the so-called so-called unsuccessful people who are idle and have no idea of ​​their imagination, but they still think that their imagination is not rich enough.

More importantly, there is basically no risk in editing Li Yuan's false deeds. Although Qin may make a comeback, in essence, in the hearts of the Guandong heroes, there is almost no one who truly believes that Li Yuan, a young boy, may lead Qin to unify the Central Plains again.

According to the current situation, it is the most likely to reappear the situation of the seven heroes in the Warring States Period. This is almost the foresight that the knowledgeable people of this era can foresee. In their opinion, although Qin has embarked on the road to revival, his vitality is severely damaged and there is no chance without decades of rest and recuperation.

The Qin State's national strength has been exhausted, and this counterattack is just a return. Don't you see it? This time, Li Yuan even sent out a young man to chase the Chu army. It can be imagined that the male man in Qin State has already lost almost the same amount.

In comparison, among the new princes, the Western Chu State was the largest. Although the Chu army suffered a defeat, it was not shaken at all. This time, Xiang Yu raised 70,000 troops to fight the west, in order to force the Qin army into Hangu Pass.

After Xiang Yu, the power of King Liu Bang of Han. Although Liu Bang suffered repeated defeats, Liu Bang's influence and recovery ability were incredible. Those who admire King Gao Yi of Han rushed from north to Hanzhong from all over the country to seek refuge with the subordinates of the King of Han, who claimed to be benevolent and righteous.

——.

June in the second year of the Xinli period of Qin.

In the early summer of 205 BC, the prelude to the Chu-Han battle for hegemony slowly began this year. Xiang Yu and Liu Bang, the fateful opponent, also began several undying battles.

But today, reality seems to be a huge joke. Xiang Yu and Liu Bang not only did not rebel against each other, but also sent envoys to communicate with each other, and pointed their common goal at the same person: Li Yuan.

Xiang Yu regrets it too much.

He did not expect that the momentary negligence in Yongqiu City would cause today's disaster. General Long Qi was killed and his cousin Xiang Zhuang was defeated one after another. The reputation of the Chu army's invincible world also fell into trouble in front of Li Yuan. If Li Yuan's power was allowed to develop like this, where would his overlord's reputation be?

Liu Bang hated him to the core.

Failed again and again, this is nothing. As long as he had a breath, Liu Bang would one day get all the interest. However, Li Yuan was too cruel. The payment of ransom suddenly transferred all the internal affairs and food and fodder of Hanzhong and Bashu to Guanzhong, which made the people of the two counties under Liu Bang resentful and the people's hearts unstable.

Before Hulao Pass.

The war drums were set in waves, and nearly 70,000 Chu troops gathered in the Western Chu king Xiang Yu. The one who confronted him was the 22,000 infantry and cavalry under the command of Li Yuan, the Marquis of Shenwu of Qin.

After successfully occupying Henan, Li Yuan quickly mobilized 10,000 generals from Guanzhong to Hangu Pass to support. The arrival of these 10,000 soldiers made the Qin army, which had a little weak force, plan to operate Luoyang for a long time.

In terms of force comparison, the Chu army has an advantage of nearly three to one. If it is on the field plain, Xiang Yu is confident that the entire army can defeat the Qin army baby soldiers on the opposite side in just half a day. But if the other party insists on the pass, this comparison can almost be ignored.

Time is also unfavorable for Xiang Yu. The supply of 20,000 generals and 70,000 generals are two completely different concepts. Every time the number of people doubles, the pressure of logistics supply will increase by more than twice. The Chu army's incomplete logistics support system is difficult to ensure the needs of front-line generals for a long time.

Under these unfavorable conditions, Xiang Yu did not give up. His decision was unexpected. When all the subordinates persuaded Xiang Yu to slow down, the leader of the prince was furious.

Others say that Li Yuan is powerful, so I, Xiang Yu, will meet him hard and see who has greater ability. This is the characteristic of Xiang Yu's personal character. It is this nature that made him defeat the arrogant Qin army that seemed powerful at that time. It is this nature that made him gradually become arrogant and lose the ability to correctly judge gains and losses.

The main force of the Chu army arrived in Xingyang ten days later than expected. Xiang Yu, who delayed the march due to the collection of food and fodder, learned about the defeat of Xiangzhuang, beheaded several Simas in the army, and then forcibly plundered the military supplies used by the 70,000 army.

Xiang Yu's violent decision made the subsequent Donghai County and Dongjun area of ​​Chu become the birthplace of riots. Without food and fodder, the people could live hungry and live for a long time? Xiang Yu, who only understood from the numbers, would not understand that the food and fodder he brought back from Guanzhong and the baggage he plundered from Qi have been exhausted in the endless battles again and again, and the remaining part was hidden by generals at all levels in the army.

Xingyang.

The scorching sun began to bake the Qianli Plain on both sides of the Yellow River. Xingyang, the important town of Sanchuan, once again became a large barracks containing thousands of soldiers. This time, the Qin army was replaced by the Chu army in this riverside city.

Overlord Xiang Yu exerted his strength.

With Xingyang as the rear supply and transfer center, the food and fodder transported by various princes could be placed in the warehouse attached to Xingyang to support the tens of thousands of generals and soldiers in front of Hulao Pass. It has to be said that if everything goes well in Xiang Yu's military strategy can allow the Chu army to maintain strong combat capabilities within a few months.

——.

Gu Pass (Hulao Pass).

Qin army camp.

Li Yuan personally led a large army to camp above the pass. In the era of cold weapons, having such a city pass that can be called a heavenly pass. As long as Li Yuan did not make any mistakes, it would be more difficult for Xiang Yu to break the pass than climb to the sky.

"Mr. Li, according to the recent investigation of the scout, Xiang Yu personally led 30,000 Chu troops to camp at the front of Hulao Pass. If our army does not fight, we will only be afraid that the morale of the army will be unstable. At the same time, the general of the Chu army, Zhong Limei, led 10,000 troops to be stationed on the north bank of the Dahe River, and had the military intention of surrounding our army's rear route. In the Chu army's retreat, the troops of Lu Chen, the chief general of the Cangtou Army, guarding food and fodder along the way. It would be very difficult for our army to use the same trick again."

Han Xin looked solemn. The first time he faced his old master made him feel a little nervous. After all, Xiang Yu's name is synonymous with invincibility in this era.

"Marquis Li, according to his subordinates' opinions, if we want to win this battle, our troops are probably not enough. We need to mobilize troops from Guanzhong to reinforce." Sima Zhao Ben, the Qin army who came with the army, looked around and finally couldn't help but step forward to advise.

This time, Zhao Ben's position as a military officer was assessed and recognized by the Chief Secretary's Office. In terms of internal affairs, Zhao Ben's performance was even stronger than Hou Xi's work performance at the beginning. This fully proves that people cannot just look at one aspect.

Finally, he truly became a member of the Qin army. Zhao Ben was extremely surprised. Over the past year, Li Yuan's territory has become larger and larger, and he needs more and more people. Zhao Ben is now grateful for his actions of abandoning the dark and turning to the light.

"The troops were dispatched, and the remaining forces in Guanzhong were all used to defend several passes. If the guards in Lantian Pass and other places were abandoned, if Liu Bang made any small moves, wouldn't everything be remedied?" Jiang Yu, who had been thinking with his head down before Li Yuan answering, refuted.

The long-term experience of stationing the pass allowed Jiang Yu to have a deeper understanding of the danger and guarding than others. After Liu Bang failed, he was able to pay the ransom and endure it. However, he was definitely not admitting defeat, but accumulating strength.

"General Han, General Han, Zhonglimei of Chu stationed troops on the north bank of the river. He is very likely to cross the river and attack me sideways when the war is at a critical moment. You have confidence to lead an army alone to block the enemy on the north bank." Li Yuan slapped the sand table, pointed to the vast plain of Zhao land north of the Yellow River, and said to Han Xin.

"Mr. Li, are you saying that I will lead the troops alone? Do you trust me?" Han Xin asked in surprise. He did not expect that he would be able to lead the army alone. For a general who wants to make a difference, nothing is more exciting than leading the troops alone.

"Why don't you believe it? Could it be that General Han lacks confidence in his ability? Or do you think the enemy general Zhong Limei is too powerful-!" Li Yuan smiled and said excitedly.

"Of course not." Han Xin hurriedly defended himself. Zhong Limei was a famous general in the Chu army and his former friend in the Chu army. They were familiar with each other. If we say that Zhong Limei's luck is better than him, Han Xin admitted it, but if we say that Zhong Limei's ability is stronger than Han Xin, he absolutely did not agree with this.

"In this way, General Han can lead his troops to detour from Puban Ferry three days later. This time he fought in Zhao. The general was surrounded by various anti-Qin vassal forces. You can deal with it carefully. If there is any unexpected situation, you can quickly move closer to Luoyang." Li Yuan ordered.

"The last one will obey the order and will definitely live up to the entrusted order of Marquis Li." Han Xin answered loudly, and with the envious eyes of the generals, he stepped forward and took the general's order out.

The childish eagle does not fly or roar.

With this experience in the Qin army, Han Xin has already had a considerable sense of identity with Qin and has a deeper understanding of Li Yuan's abilities.

After testing Han Xin for a long time, Li Yuan decided to let him go solo.

Note: Regarding updates, Khan, because he is still working part-time, he is really tight in time. He is working hard on the second update and strives to make more updates on weekends. I think it’s still important to persist. Don’t update more at a while, and stop updates later. Everyone says it is right? (To be continued.)
