Chapter 61 10. A scholar dies for his confidant

The first battle of the Han army started, captured Chencang and Haozhi, and drove away Zhang Han.So Han Xin ordered a battle meeting to be held. Everyone came and looked at this guy angrily. All the generals thought that the first battle went well because they fought well. I heard Han Xin say: "Hello everyone, you have worked hard. I hope you will guard against arrogance and impetuosity, continue to work hard, carry forward your style, and play at a high level... No more nonsense, now I order that the Han army is divided into two armies, one is the siege army. , responsible for taking down the abandoned hills, and capturing Zhang Han alive. The second is the army of the Three Qin Lue, who will take advantage of this opportunity to move around to grab the land and the city, and the more they grab, the better."

"The siege army is composed of Cao Shen and Fan Kui. In addition, you two must draw some troops to support the Xianyang campaign." "Zhou Bo of the Lue Land Army moved in the direction of Qian and Long to capture fighter opportunities." "Jin She, the Lue Land Army, pursued Zhang Ping along Longxi, and took advantage of the opportunity of hunting to gain land." "About the land for the military and merchants, and for the north." "The land army Guanying, the camera launched an attack on Liyang, the capital of Serbia." "Okay, do you have any opinions? If you don't have an opinion, go to work!"

The generals came out with the command arrows, you look at me, I look at you, I feel that this guy Han Xin is really good.Listening to his distribution, this battle is particularly easy to fight. So Cao Shen and Fan Kui stormed Feiqiu, and drew out their troops to cooperate with the Xianyang campaign.Zhao Ben, the old opponent of the Han army, had fled into Xianyang at this time, and came out to fight, but Cao Shen had already beaten Zhao Ben smoothly, and was beaten by him, making Zhao Ben ashamed, and the Han army took advantage of the situation to capture Xianyang. Then Cao Shen renamed Xianyang Xincheng, and led his army to Jingling excitedly.Before he could sit down, he saw Sima Xin, the King of Sai who supported Feiqiu, approaching aggressively.Cao Shen was very surprised and didn't understand why Sima Xin came to Jingling to fight with him and defeat Sima Xin.

Then Cao Shen sent his troops to Qidi to chase after Zhang Ping, the Sanqin army.Unfortunately, it quickly caught up.Only when they caught up did they realize that Zhang Ping was no longer Zhang Ping, but the combined army of Zhang Han, Dong Yi and Zhang Ping.No wonder Sima Xin is no longer in Feiqiu, it turns out that Zhang Han also ran out.At this time, the Three Qin Army had three troops, Cao Shen knew that he was invincible, and wanted to scare his opponent by virtue of his previous victories.But Zhang Han didn't take the scare, so he slashed and killed Cao Shen, causing Cao Shen to turn around and run away.

Zhang Han led the three Qin army excitedly, and chased them down.Unexpectedly, another group of people suddenly appeared in front, and it turned out to be Zhou Bo.Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhang Han hurriedly turned around and fled. Cao Shen and Zhou Bo chased after him, causing the land of Sanqin to be violent and dusty. On the side of the Han army, there is also Guan Ying, who started his career as a silk seller. He was ordered by Han Xin to live in Liyang.Liyang is the lair of Sima Xin of Serbia.But Sima Xin failed to rescue Yong, and was chased and killed by Cao Shen in Jingling. When he went home, he found that his old nest was taken away by Guan Ying.At that time, King Sima Xin of Sai was furious and immediately ordered to surrender.

Surrender quickly, don't fight anymore, after fighting for a long time, you still don't know what's going on. King Sima Xin of Sai was the first to surrender.But Zhang Ping, the general of Yongwang Zhanghan, fled all the way to the north, and unfortunately encountered Jin She, the No. There is also Zhai Wang Dong Yi, who was chased eastward and westward for a while, but couldn't find a place to eat, so he also surrendered. The Han army was ecstatic and reported victory one after another.Liu Bang asked: "Then who, where is Zhang Han?" "Zhang Han..." Everyone turned around and searched carefully. They were surprised to find that fellow Zhang Han had fled back to Feiqiu at some point, and the city gate was still closed, stubbornly resisting.At that time, the Han army was so angry, this Zhang Han was really tough, coming in and out uncertainly, going east and west, it was really irritating.

Unable to take down Feiqiu, unable to catch Zhang Han, Feiqiu became a nail nailed into the heart of the Han army, which made Liu Bang panic.He didn't dare to let the army rush eastward, so he first sent two little-known generals, one named Xue Ou and the other Wang Su, to go out of Wuguan to test the limelight.But Xiang Yu sent a team to Yangxia, Xue Ou and Wang Xi couldn't advance half a step. There is no other way, we have to take down the deposed Qiu Zhanghan. But this Zhang Han is really too angry, he can't die in the city, and everyone can't attack him no matter what.A small abandoned hill was fought for more than ten months—accounting for nearly a quarter of the entire Chu-Han War.During this period of time, Liu Bang couldn't wait anymore and ventured out of the customs. As a result, the Kwantung Han Army suffered a major setback under the fierce offensive of the Chu Army.Even Liu Bang was almost captured alive by Xiang Yu, and the Eastward Army was basically wiped out.

Liu Bang was so angry that he ordered Han Xin to kill him and stop being polite to Zhang Han.War is not about treating guests to dinner, making fuss, or embroidering flowers for big girls. If you want to play, you can play the cruelest and bloodiest ones! Seeing that Liu Bang was impatient, Han Xin didn't dare to neglect, so he killed him.He ordered Fan Kuai to dig open the embankment of the Weishui River and divert water to attack the ruined hills and city walls.The city wall collapsed, and the Han army rushed into the city. Seeing that the situation was over, Zhang Han sighed and killed himself with his sword.

Zhang Han did not die for Qin, but died for Xiang Yu, because Qin did not treat him with kindness.He was fighting in the front, while Zhao Gao was in the rear preparing to chop off his head.However, Xiang Yu made Zhang Han the king of Yong, and he was kind to Zhang Han.So Zhang Han is willing to die for his confidant Xiang Yu. In the first battle of the Sanqin Battle on the branch battlefield, the delay was too long due to Zhang Han's steadfast defense of the abandoned hills, which led to the second half of this battle overlapping with the Battle of Pengcheng on the main battlefield. And the Battle of Pengcheng was Xiang Yu's perfect solo show - if he hadn't revealed his cruel and superficial truth prematurely, perhaps this battle would be enough to establish history.
