"Commander, do we really want to believe what Han Xin said? He is obviously just a foot soldier, and he is from Huaiyin, not one of ours." Jiang Chun rode a fast horse and followed Xiang.
An asked suspiciously from behind.
Xiang An didn't speak, he just pondered, seeming to be thinking about something.
"I said, Lao Jiang, you are simply overthinking. Just follow Mr. Xiang An and you're done!" Liao Ye also followed behind Xiang An on horseback, with a slight smile on his face.
Han Xin, I really did not introduce you wrongly, and I was able to tell you a plan that Sir Xiang An was willing to try.
Hehe, does this have to give me one-third of the credit?
"If the second brother is willing to believe it, then I am also willing to believe it. At least the second brother's vision of people is quite accurate, right?" The person who spoke was not Zijuan, the fourth child of the Xiang family, but the elder of the Xiang family who had been following Xiang Yu before.
Three items of honor and a hundred punishments.
"Okay, don't discuss this matter. All you need to do is do as I said before." Xiang An did not let Tuanchi run too fast. Tuanchi was the best among horses in every aspect. If
If you speed up, you may not be able to instantly get rid of the group of people behind you. In that case, only Xiang An will arrive at the ferry in advance, and the effect of the strategy will not be achieved.
"Yes!" The three of them responded in unison.
Xiang An turned his head slightly, glanced at Xiang Jing who looked excited, and frowned.
He felt that his third brother had undergone some kind of change since his uncle's uprising, a very obvious change.
When he was in Kuaiji before, Xiang Jing was generally a polite person with a relatively easy-going temperament. Although his appearance looked a bit scary due to the injuries he suffered when he was a child, Xiang An understood that he was a very gentle person.
people.
However, this tenderness was put on hold during Xiang Liang's uprising and when Xiang Jing followed Xiang Yu to attack the city for the first time.
The so-called gentleness and kindness are just confusion without finding the goal.
Xiang Jing tasted the taste of war, tasted the taste of killing the enemy, tasted——
Xiang Baixing, who also painted his own injuries on others, seemed to have become a different person.
Xiang An didn't know the attitude of Xiang Yu and Zi Juan, but he felt that Xiang Jing was a little strange.
He was preparing for war almost all the time, drawing his sword on the enemy's body and shooting his arrow into the enemy's eye socket.
Moreover, it seems that because the progress of the war continues to advance, Xiang Jing...is getting stronger and stronger.
Now Xiang Jing can even draw a ten-stone bow.
The strength required to draw Xiang Jing's bow can even be used to pick up Xiang Yu's Tianlong city-breaking halberd and half Xiang An's three-piece beryllium at the same time.
You must know that the heavy crossbows placed on the city walls in the Han Dynasty only had the lethality of twelve stones and could directly cut a person in two. However, such a crossbow, at least in terms of accuracy, could not compare with Xiang Jing.
Xiang An withdrew his gaze.
He didn't know whether what happened to Xiang Jing was good or bad, but he... didn't like this change.
But even if he doesn't like it, Xiang An won't say it. Choice is a person's basic right. At least this change of Xiang Jing will help Xiang Liang compete in the world.
Turning his gaze back to the front, Xiang An narrowed his eyes.
Twenty miles ahead is the Huai River. When the time comes, turn eastward for less than three miles and you will reach the Xutai Ferry.
A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and Xiang An said: "Hurry up, we must arrive before dawn!"
He came out this time just for Xutai Ferry, which he must win!
Surprise attack is very simple, but extremely effective.
Moreover, the three hundred men brought by Xiang An are all elite soldiers under Xiang Liang, and Xiang Jing, who can almost be said to be a small slingshot, has only one purpose!
That is to use a small group of troops to control the ferry before Jiang Yuan's main force begins to move.
But this move is very dangerous. The ferry is bordered by water on both sides. If the enemy reacts, a counter-siege will immediately form. Therefore, in addition to Xiang An's surprise attack team, Han Xin has other arrangements for this operation.
.
Xiang Yu and Zhujishi also set off after Xiang An set off. Xiang Liang simply stationed fifty miles away from Xutai, watching with eager eyes and marching as soon as dawn. Jiang Yuan inside Xutai said that it was impossible not to react.
.
He and Jiang Han had been fighting back and forth before, and there was an absolute disparity in military strength. This man's claim that he was incompetent was absolutely false, so he would definitely actively respond to Xiang Liang's attack.
At this time, the role of Xiang Yu and Zhujishi came into play.
Xiang Liang launched a general attack from the south gate, and Xiang Yu led his army to attack the east gate. Zhujishi assisted Xiang Yu in the attack. This was the original plan.
But now, Xiang Yu directly gave up attacking the east gate, and instead led a large number of cavalry to follow Xiang An, hiding in the dawn night, and attacked the north gate of Xutai.
As for the posture of attacking the east gate, Xiang Yu had already laid out it yesterday.
Xiang An took the lead in launching a surprise attack on the ferry. He first captured the most critical ferry and cut off the possibility of the enemy destroying the ferry by breaking pots and smashing it. Then Xiang Yu's cavalry and chariots cut off Jiang Yuan's retreat from south to north. Xiang Liang
This was Han Xin's plan to annex the infantry of Xiang Yu's army and launch a devastating attack from the south gate.
If the original plan is followed, although Xutai can be captured, neither the supplies nor the ferry Jiang Yuan will be left behind. Now with Han Xin's plan, if this plan really succeeds, then what awaits the Chu army will be
It’s a bumper harvest!
That kid is real!
Xiang An grinned and tightened the reins in his hands.
If nothing else happens, he may have found a treasure this time!
While thinking, the scenery beside me disappeared quickly, and Xutai Ferry could be seen in front of me!
"Third brother! Look at the guard at the ferry who has the highest military rank! Kill him!" Xiang An shouted at Xiang Jing.
"Okay, Commander!" Xiang Jing had a cruel expression on his face, and he immediately drew his bow and arrow, aiming in the direction of Xutai Ferry.
Let me see, the highest military position...
You are the one!
He aimed at an officer dressed as a sergeant, opened his one eye angrily, and fully drew his powerful bow——
"Death!" he said quietly but firmly.
call out----
The arrow leaves the string.
With a sound of breaking through the air, arrows as thick as a little finger flew wildly towards the soldier.
Then it accurately hit the soldier commander's eye socket and penetrated his head.
The ferry suddenly fell into a panic without a leader.
"Okay! Charge!" Xiang An was overjoyed, roared, clamped his horse's belly, and rushed out at the fastest speed on a neighing gallop.
Behind him were three hundred people who made the ferry defenders despair.
But... there seems to be something wrong in this ferry?
