Chapter 37 Zhang Liang's Counterattack
Liu Bang was paced back and forth in the tent, while Zhang Liang and Chen Ping were kneeling on the table. Although Liu Bang's expression seemed a little anxious, the expressions on Zhang and Chen's faces were still as calm as before.
The nine armies of armor were waiting for battle, and Xiahou Ying and Li Shang had already led 5,000 elite troops to set off quietly.
All of these ten thousand elite soldiers were selected from the army. Not only were they taller and strong, but they were all veterans who had experienced many battles. More importantly, they all followed the Chu army and brought individual soldiers' rations, full of cloth bags of dry food, which was enough to ensure that they did not have to make fire to cook within seven days!
With dry food, there was no burden of supplies, mule carts, and the Han army could finally cross mountains and ridges to launch sneak attacks on the Chu army. This was Zhang Liang's counterattack, and he would do his best to do it!
The Chu army's hiding place has also been found. After seeing through the secret of gathering troops in the beacon, the general area where the Chu army gathered was basically determined. Zhang Liang then sent the most powerful ranger under his sect, Qingpi!
Qingpi is just a nickname, but his real name is never shown, even if Zhang Liang doesn’t know it.
Qingpi was very skilled in martial arts and was good at using a hammer weighing 120 kilograms. He once followed Zhang Liang to assassinate the King of Qin in Gulangbosha, but unfortunately he failed. However, the assassination was not actually the director of Qingpi. Qingpi was really powerful in tracking and spying! This time, Qingpi did not disappoint Zhang Liang. Soon, he spyed on the exact whereabouts of the Chu army.
Now, the situation has completely reversed, and it has become the Han army in the dark and the Chu army in the dark!
Liu Bang, who was paced back and forth, suddenly stopped, then slapped boxing and said hatefully: "I really want to see what will happen when the Chu army is attacked by our army at night?"
Chen Ping said: "No matter what army, the performance should be similar when they are attacked."
Zhang Liang waved his hand and said casually: "Your Majesty, don't be too anxious. Now the whereabouts of the Chu army are under our control. Therefore, even if this sneak attack cannot seriously damage the Chu army, there will still be a chance in the future. After all, the Chu army is no better than our army. Our army was killed six times but only injured its fur. What about the Chu army? As long as it is defeated, it will collapse!"
"It's best to capture Xiang Zhuang alive." Liu Bang nodded and said hatefully, "I want to cut off his head with my own hands, cut out his heart, and sacrifice to Fan Kuai, Chunyu Hu, and Yin Fu their spirit in heaven!"
#############
"Child Xiangzhuang, die!"
A figure like an iron tower suddenly appeared in front of Xiang Zhuang, and then a long sword with a cold light shook towards his neck like lightning. Xiang Zhuang was shocked. When he was about to dodge, he was frightened to find that his body was filled with lead and could not move at all. He could only watch the long sword slashing towards his neck.
Just when Xiang Zhuang thought he was about to die, he suddenly woke up. It turned out to be Nan Ke Yimeng.
"Hu." Xiang Zhuang couldn't help but breathe a long sigh, thinking that it was so fucking good to live.
I just wanted to take a nap to relieve my illness, but I fell asleep without expecting it. And I had such an extremely unlucky nightmare, which scared him into a cold sweat. Now his whole back is still cold.
I looked up at the sky. It was already late at night. After a moment, the whole army should start.
But for some reason, Xiang Zhuang always felt a little uneasy in his heart. Maybe it was because of the nightmare just now, maybe it was because of his sixth sense. Anyway, he felt that something was wrong today, very wrong.
#############
In fact, Xiahou Ying's five thousand elite soldiers were approaching quietly in the dense forest near.
The light in the forest is very dark. Although it is not as if you can't see your fingers, it's almost the same. Fortunately, this forest is a big pine forest, with thick pine hair falling on the ground. It doesn't matter if you fall down, and it won't make any noise.
Looking out of the dense forest, you can even see a vague bonfire, which must be the Chu army's campfire!
In an instant, a trace of ferocious murderous intent popped up at the corner of Xiahou Ying's mouth. These sad southern barbarians were about to die, but I was afraid they were still thinking about how to sneak attack the Han army outside the mountain pass?
It’s a pity that they have no chance and will never have another chance!
When Xiahou Ying was fantasizing about killing the Chu army, the scout team exploring the way forward suddenly heard a few owls cry. Xiahou Ying quickly raised his right hand, and the five thousand elite soldiers who were slowly following behind him stopped one after another.
When Xiahou Ying came to the front again, he saw the scouts huddled behind a big tree that was falling.
Qingpi, who was sent by Zhang Liang to lead the way, then greeted him and whispered: "General, there is a scout from the Chu army in front of him!"
Xiahou Ying looked in the direction of the green-skin fingers and saw a large stone in the middle of the clearing in front of him, with two blurry figures on it, one standing and the other walking back and forth. Because the stone was very empty and the moonlight shone, it was discovered by the Chu army scout.
Seeing this situation, Xiahou Ying also scratched his head a little. Because the terrain in front was too wide, it was basically impossible to get close to sneak attacks. If he was hunted with archers, it would be difficult to ensure that the two of them were shot together!
Xiahou Ying himself was not sure, so he immediately led the scout team: "Go and call Lou Fan!"
The scout team led the order and soon came to Xiahou Ying with a grown-up Hu man. This Hu man was Lou Fan. Lou Fan was actually the name of a barbarian tribe. This Hu man was obviously Lou Fan, but the Han army soldiers didn't know his name, so they simply called him Lou Fan.
Xiahou Ying didn't say anything, but pointed to the two figures in the open space ahead.
Lou Fan nodded coldly, then pulled out the strong bow and put a heavy arrow with a thick wolf tooth as thick as a thumb on the string. With the tight rattle of the bow arm, the strong bow quickly pulled into a full moon shape. At one moment, two black shadows in the open space overlapped. Lou Fan's slightly narrowed eyes suddenly opened, revealing his splendor, and then released the bow string.
With a buzzing sound, the two black shadows in front fell down, and they were killed by one shot!
"Okay!" Xiahou Ying couldn't help but shout, but he was still too happy!
As soon as he finished speaking, a low horn sound suddenly sounded in the dense forest in front of him. Under the quiet night sky, the low and desolate horn sound seemed extremely harsh and extremely ugly!
"Damn it!" Xiahou Ying knew that his figure had been exposed, and the Han army could no longer approach silently, but the two sides were close enough. So what if the Chu army was prepared for it? The elite soldiers on both sides, a total of 10,000 troops, could they still destroy the three or four thousand remaining soldiers of the Chu army? Xiahou Ying shouted sternly, "Catch a torch and kill!"
#############
Just when Xiang Zhuang was in a state of anxiety, the desolate horn suddenly sounded from the dense forest near the side!
Xiang Zhuang was shocked. Originally, setting up scouts in the dense forests on both sides of the canyon was just to prevent it, but he didn't expect it to work!?
What surprised Xiangzhuang was particularly that the Han army did not take the mountain pass road, but actually crossed mountains and ridges and attacked them!
What does this mean? This shows that Liu Bang, Zhang Liang, Chen Ping and others have fully understood the Chu army's tactics. Now, they have to use their own ways to repay them!
It's worthy of being Chen Ping!
It's worthy of being Zhang Liang!!
It's worthy of being Liu Bang!!!
Xiang Zhuang suddenly stood up, then pulled out the horizontal knife again, and shouted loudly: "Get together, gather urgently!"
Since the Han army's surprise soldiers were found in the dense forest near the left, there must be some in the dense forest on the right. With Zhang Liang and Chen Ping's experienced skills, how could he care about his head and not care about his butt? How could he make such a low-level mistake?
So, if you divide your troops into the forest on the right, you will be seeking death!
For the current plan, we can only concentrate our troops to break through the mountain pass. No matter how many elite troops there are in front, it is just to defeat them, and there is no need to pay attention to how many people there will be, just kill them all!
In a blink of an eye, Xiang Zhuang made a decision!
No matter whether the decision is right or wrong, at least you can't hesitate at this time!
The Chu soldiers who were sitting on the ground resting stood up one after another and began to line up nervously.
Almost at the same time, countless torches suddenly lit out from the dense forest near the left. In the bright firelight, countless Han soldiers were waving their big swords with cold light and rushed down like a tide.
Faced with the sudden outbreak of Han army, the soldiers of the Chu army couldn't help but riot.
"Roar..." Xiang Zhuang suddenly roared to the sky, his hair and hair were wide open, like an angry lion.
This loud and suffocating roar was like the long roar of the wolf king, which shocked the turbulent wolf pack!
After slightly attracting the attention of the Chu soldiers, Xiang Zhuang raised his sword again, pointed the tip of the knife to the mountain pass ahead, and shouted in a singular manner: "Don't panic, everyone, follow me to fight out!"
"Get out!" Gao Chu hit the shield with a knife and roared to the sky.
"Kill out!" Jing Qian hit his chest with his fist and howled to the sky.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!" Behind the two, five hundred personal soldiers howled wolf howled!
In an instant, more than 4,000 Chu troops roared like a thunderbolt in the mountains. Xiangzhuang led his sword forward. More than 4,000 Chu troops immediately swarmed towards the mountain pass ahead like a flood that broke the dike. Although the Han army rushed down from the dense forest near the left, so what? You go to yours, we go to ours, the road is facing the sky, and each side!
#############
Seeing that the remnants of the Chu army in the valley were not only unconfused and disintegrated, but even responded quickly and tried to break through the siege from the mountain pass ahead, Xiahou Ying couldn't help but feel shocked. Is this really a defeated soldier who escaped from the battlefield at Gaixia? Such calmness and calmness are simply the elite among the elites, and how can they look like a defeated soldier?
No wonder the Chu army was able to defeat Fan Kuai first and then Li Zuoche before!
No wonder before, the Chu army was able to defeat six Han troops in succession and beheaded 20,000!
However, no matter how calm or brave the Chu army was, it would still be impossible to escape the end of defeat tonight!
Suddenly, a ferocious murderous intent appeared on the corner of Xiahou Ying's mouth, and his feet suddenly began to accelerate.
#############
Five thousand Han troops swarmed down from the dense forest on the left, and more than four thousand Chu troops swept forward along the canyon.
Seeing that the Chu and Han armies were about to pass by, a desolate horn sounded suddenly in the dense forest in front of the right!
Although Xiang Zhuang was mentally prepared and never had any fantasies about Liu Bang, Zhang Liang and Chen Ping, when the trumpet sounded in the dense forest on the right, he still felt like he fell into an ice cave.
The attack on both sides is indeed the attack on both sides!
Outside the mountain pass ahead, there must be a Han army intercepting it!
Although I was very careful, I still fell into Zhang Liang's plan!
Zhang Liang is worthy of being Zhang Liang. If you don’t take action, you will be dead if you take action!
Xiang Zhuang rushes his sword and forces himself to calm down quickly. At this time, the life and death of the Chu army is all in his thoughts. If one step is wrong, the entire army will immediately end! ###############################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################
