"We can't go on like this." Qin Jia slammed the desk with a serious expression.
"Although King Wei is blocking Zhang Han for us in the east, everyone knows how strong Zhang Han's army is, and King Wei can't hold it back!" Qin Jia gritted his teeth and squeezed his whole fist.
Feeling the pain of his nails digging into his palms, he only felt annoyed, "Now Xiang Liang in the south has also crossed the Huai River and is about to come over. Damn them - them!"
Bang!
As he spoke, he patted the desk again.
No one dared to respond.
Qin Jia turned around and glanced at Chu King Jingju, who was sitting in the first place, and found that he had no expression and did not express his position. He could only grit his teeth, let out a long sigh, put his elbows on the table and rubbed his temples.
It's so hard for me.
After pondering for a moment, the whole hall could hear a needle drop. The other generals and ministers had beads of sweat on their foreheads, and they did not dare to take the initiative to look in Qin Jia's direction.
Qin Jia rubbed her temples and calmed down a little.
"We can't sit still and wait to be killed." He put down his hands and glared at everyone with power, "Now that Xiang Liang has crossed the Huai River, the target is very clear, it is us. If we do nothing, we will only be beaten to death.
Here, this is not the purpose of my raising an army."
"General, maybe we can...ask the King of Qi for help?" A general who seemed to have a high status hesitated and suggested.
"...No, Qi Wang Tian Dan is currently rectifying the country, and his attitude towards us is average. He cannot risk asking for help." Qin Jia thought for a few seconds and shook his head, "We must rely on our own abilities to survive.
You just have to pass this level."
"According to the spies' report, Xiang Liang's main force is stationed in the north and east of Huai River. We must take into account his priority in attacking Surabaya and Dangcheng." Qin Jia gently twirled his two fingers, thinking deeply.
, "This bastard of his is definitely not holding back anything good."
"In short, the entire army is under martial law, don't relax your training, and be ready to support other cities at any time!"
"yes!"
...
"Let's separate from here." Xiang Liang looked at his eldest nephew and said seriously, "Think twice before restraining the enemy's main force. Your army is not large enough. If you can't do it, don't force it."
"I understand, uncle." Xiang Yu nodded to show that he understood.
Fighting all the way to the north, Xiang Liang also collected many defeated soldiers from other forces along the way, and many troops came to defect to Xiang Liang. After consolidation and recalculation, Xiang Liang's troops alone now totaled 30,000.
The way people look around.
Including Xiang Yu's 14,000 men and Song Yi's 10,000 men, Xiang Liang had a total of more than 50,000 soldiers.
"In the early morning after eight days, we will attack Dangcheng, Xiang Yu." Xiang Liang said the last thing, pulled the reins, and left with the army in the northwest direction.
Seeing Xiang Liang's mighty army gradually retreating away, Xiang Yu exhaled and turned to look at his generals.
"Eight days later, the general will attack Dangcheng. We must complete the containment of Qin Jia's main force before then." Xiang An stood beside Xiang Yu on Turanchi, frowning and groaning.
"With the whole army attacking at full strength, how many days will it take to reach Pengcheng?" Xiang Yu looked at another man on horseback.
This person is none other than the warlock who joined Xiang Liang's side a while ago, Yi Ke.
"We can arrive in about six days with an all-out attack, but the condition of the soldiers cannot be guaranteed. I don't recommend that the general does this." Yi Ke shook his head and calculated something with a solemn face, "And there will be heavy rain in the Jianghuai generation in four days. We
It also rains where we are.”
Not only did he know how to make fires and explosions, but he could also predict the weather and feng shui, which was of great help to the march.
It is spring now, and if we march in the rain, many soldiers will probably get sick, so this is definitely not feasible.
"Go ahead at full speed in four days, and run as far as you can." Xiang Yu is not an indecisive person. After thinking about it for a while, he said on the spot, "Xiang An, let your left and right divisions separate on both sides and be responsible for guarding.
, set off immediately.”
"General, please obey your orders!" Xiang An handed over his hand, turned his horse's head on a galloping horse, and immediately went to arrange his army.
A truly huge war is about to begin...
...
"Report——" The messenger quickly ran into Qin Jia's camp and knelt down on one knee, "General, we have noticed the movements of Xiang Liang's army!"
"Say it quickly!" Qin Jia's eyes lit up, she slapped the table and stood up.
"Reporting to the general, Xiang Liang's main force is heading towards Qixian County! An army separated from them during the march, and it seems that they are heading straight towards Pengcheng!"
"good!"
Bang!
Qin Jia banged the table suddenly, with excitement on his face: "Well, Xiang Liang, if you really mobilize the entire army to attack Sishui or Dangcheng, I can really regard you as a threat, but now you take the initiative to disperse your troops, you are not just yourself
Big, even stupider!"
"Inform the three armies to go out with me!" He picked up the helmet on the shelf next to him, with sharp eyes. "Xiang Liang went to fight Surabaya because he probably wanted to surround Pengcheng with another army. We are going to kill him now.
idea!”
"Gather all the strength of the army to kill his separated army directly!" He picked up the copper sword and put it on his waist, with a cruel smile on his lips, "Don't he want to surround me?"
"We - in turn, surrounded them!"
"Report----"
Before Qin Jia went out, he heard another urgent order.
Then, he watched a man on horseback rush into the military camp.
He frowned and looked at the straps on the arm of the messenger on horseback: "Is he from Xiapi...?"
After the messenger entered the camp, he turned over and dismounted. The horse ran so fast that it was frothing at the mouth, while the messenger hurriedly ran towards the commander's tent.
"Report----"
"Stop reporting! What happened to Xiapi!?" Qin Jia directly interrupted the messenger and asked anxiously.
There was a vague feeling of bad premonition in his heart.
"General——" The ordering soldier saw Qin Jia and knelt down directly, with tears in his eyes and full of grief, "Xiapi, Xiapi——"
"What happened to Xiapi!? Tell me quickly!" Qin Jia's expression became fierce and he glared at the messenger.
"Xiapi... is gone..." the messenger lowered his head and said with despair.
Qin Jia felt as if her chest was stagnant and her heart was about to stop.
"...Who is it? Who attacked Xiapi?" He endured the overwhelming anger and asked the messenger.
"It's Song Yi, Song Yi under Xiang Liang!" The messenger raised his head with his fists in his hands, "Song Yi led ten thousand people across the river and didn't even get to the city before they reached Xiapi at the fastest speed. We simply couldn't
Before he could react, he attacked the city with all his strength, and we...were unable to defend Xiapi..."
