However, although Fan Zeng's idea was good, the plan could not change as quickly as it did. No matter how good the plan was, it would inevitably encounter various problems in the specific process of implementation. Xiang Yu's cavalry had just set off half a day ago, and Li Cunxiao's three thousand flying
The Tiger Cavalry has already arrived as the vanguard force.
At this time, Cen Peng, who was hiding near Guangcheng Pass and looking for an opportunity to plead guilty and meritorious service, immediately found Li Cunxiao and told Li Cunxiao about the situation he had been quietly observing him these days.
Although the surroundings of the Xiang clan were heavily guarded, Cen Peng did not dare to get too close, so he only noticed the Xiang clan's cavalry dispatching but did not know its specific target and direction.
However, Yue Fei had already analyzed for Li Cunxiao the possible attack methods of the Xiang clan. Therefore, Li Cunxiao already had a relative judgment of his own, and he pursued towards Hulao Pass without much hesitation.
At the same time, just in case, Li Cunxiao also asked Cen Peng to go and notify Yue Fei who was still marching. In this case, if he guessed wrong, the target of the Xiang family's cavalry was not Hulao Pass but Luoyang, nor
What big problems will arise?
If Yue Fei is here, if he dares to attack with just a few cavalry, he will definitely go there and never come back.
After all, Sizhou was still Li Xiang's base camp. Although Xiang Yu had set off half a day earlier, Li Cunxiao decided to take a shortcut to catch up. On the other hand, in order to speed up, he directly gave up unnecessary things such as food, grass and baggage to reduce the burden.
Food, grass and baggage may be very important to Xiang Yu, and he must bring enough with him when he sets off, but Li Cunxiao is different. He sent a general order to the county magistrates along the way to help him prepare in advance, so he can naturally carry it with him along the way.
Get enough supplements.
Finally, under Li Cunxiao's full pursuit, he finally intercepted Xiang Yu halfway.
Meeting the world-famous Li Cunxiao, Xiang Yu was full of fighting spirit. What's more, if he wanted to continue to move forward, he had to break through Li Cunxiao's obstruction. Therefore, the two men had to fight.
field.
The first battle between the two sides ended with Li Cunxiao's defeat. When it comes to the combat effectiveness of the soldiers, the individual combat effectiveness of Li Cunxiao's Flying Tiger Army is still as high as the individual combat effectiveness of the three cavalry soldiers: Tenglong, Shadow Tiger, and Thunder Leopard.
Above. However, this is not enough to support these cavalry against two. After all, Li Cunxiao's Flying Tiger Army only has 3,000 people at full strength, while the total number of people behind Xiang Yu is 6,000.
They are also the most elite troops on both sides. Even if the Flying Tiger Army is stronger than the other three troops, the gap between them is very limited, and it is impossible for one to fight against two.
What's more, in addition to soldiers, Li Cunxiao's generals are also relatively insufficient. After all, it is just a vanguard army, and it is commanded by an invincible warrior like Li Cunxiao. In addition, Yue Fei's army also needs enough masters to hold down the formation. Therefore.
, when setting out, Yue Fei only sent one Lu Wenlong to Li Cunxiao to help him.
Li Cunxiao and Xiang Yu were fighting equally. If there were no unexpected factors, there would be no winner even if they fought for a day. But Lu Wenlong fought three by himself, and he didn't have the ability to last long!
Therefore, the first confrontation between Li Cunxiao and Xiang Yu ended with Li Cunxiao taking the initiative to retreat after a brief battle.
However, although they could not defeat the opponent in a head-on confrontation, Li Cunxiao just bit the opponent and refused to let go. The opponent wanted to sneak attack Hulao Pass, and Cao and Yuan's coalition forces attacked front and back, but there was no way!
However, should we say that Li Cunxiao has good luck, or should we say that Xiang Yu has bad luck? Just when neither side could do anything to the other, Li Cunxiao was lucky enough to meet his master Tantaiyu. Although Tantaiyu
He is not as invincible as Li Cunxiao, but he has initially reached the level of a divine general, with a basic force of 106 points.
With Tantai Yu's help, Li Cunxiao was not afraid of confronting Xiang Yu again this time. Although the number of soldiers was still only half of the opponent's, the generals under his command were able to deal with the opponent even if they were two against three.
Before, Li Cunxiao had to take the initiative to retreat for the safety of his generals, but now the relationship between the two parties has been reversed. Although there is still no winner between Xiang Yu and Li Cunxiao, for the safety of his generals, Xiang Yu has become
I had to take the lead in retreating.
Each side has its own strengths and weaknesses, and neither can easily defeat the other. But it is conceivable that the Xiang family's idea of raiding Hulao Pass failed.
When Xiang Yan and Fan Zeng received the news, the wily Fan Zeng suddenly had another plan in mind. Since Xiang Yu's plan to raid Hulao Pass failed, Fan Zeng simply turned his attention to Li Cunxiao and the Feihu Army.
.
If Yue Fei's large army can be planned to capture such an elite force and a strong general like Li Cunxiao when it arrives, it will undoubtedly give the Jin army a few blows, and there will be other plans for their next battle.
benefit.
If Li Cunxiao was the only one, he would inevitably fall into Fan Zeng's scheme. After all, if it was about muscle, Li Cunxiao would be far behind Fan Zeng, but if it was about playing with his brains, it would be the other way around.
Li Cunxiao is thousands of miles away!
Unfortunately, when Yue Fei and Liu Bowen learned about Li Cunxiao's actions from Cen Peng, they had already sent people to notify Li Cunxiao. After blocking Xiang Yu, they stood still and waited for the arrival of the large army. Therefore, after the intervention of Yue Fei and Liu Bowen
However, Li Cunxiao did not fall into the opponent's trap.
Just when Fan Zeng failed and was preparing to carry out the design, Yue Fei's large army arrived at this time. Soon, the two sides faced off near the Guangchengguan ruins.
The situation after that was not very friendly to the Xiang family. Yue Fei's troops were flawless, Xiang Yan had no way to defeat the enemy, and the fighting skills between Fan Zeng and Liu Bowen were equally matched, and no one could take advantage of the other.
As the news of Li Xiang's occupation of Chang'an and Yang Jian's demise came, the people of the Xiang clan became even more confused. The other party had already taken Yongliang initially, and it can be said that more than half of their goal of sending troops this time had failed.
, Li Xiang, who has his hands free, will not let them wreak havoc in Sizhou.
However, although they know that if they continue to fight under the current situation, there may not be any good results. However, the senior leaders of the Xiang family also have their own plans and ideas, and they will not give up this battle easily. No matter what,
, we also have to wait for the actions of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao. As long as Cao Cao and Yuan Shao do not retreat, it is not impossible to continue the fight.
