After Liu Bang learned that the city governor was taken back by the Qin army, he immediately became anxious and ordered the Han army to be assembled to fight back.
"Your Majesty, no."
After hearing Liu Bang's order, Chen Ping immediately stood up and stopped him.
"Aiqing, what's the matter? Is there anything wrong?"
"Your Majesty, this is a big mistake.
Now the city governor has been captured by the Qin army, and we are now leading the army back thousands of miles, and it may be difficult to regain it in a short time.
And once we withdraw the army from Jiangdong and Jiujiang now.
Without the deterrence of our army, many wealthy families in Jiangdong and Jiujiang may rebel immediately.
At that time, we have spent several months to return all the large areas of the Raiders. "
Chen Ping explained to Liu Bang that he hoped that Liu Bang would give up this idea.
"But, Shuzhong is our foundation!" Liu Bang was in pain.
It is true that Liu Bang has always regarded Shuzhong as his base camp, and Shuzhong is the land of abundance.
In the past two years, there have been bumper harvests in Central Shu, and Liu Bang has hoarded a large amount of grain in Central Shu.
The reason why Liu Bang was able to launch successive attacks against King Sima Xin of Ba, and King Linjiang, and now he captured the entire Jiangnan, was all supported by the granary in the middle of Shu,
Now, the Qin army has captured Shuzhong, which means that Liu Bang has lost his foundation, and the Han army has no follow-up food and grass support, so there is no need to fight.
Wars are fought for money and food.
"My lord, we still have a way out now."
Chen Ping said.
"What way?"
"Go north to unite Qi, Chu destroy Qin.
Only by destroying the Tyrant Qin can we take back Shuzhong and give us time to manage Jiangnan.
Otherwise, in the Battle of Handan, if Han Xin and Xiang Yu lost to Tyrant Qin together, we will definitely lose when we face Tyrant Qin.
At that time, Tyranny would not give us time to manage Jiangnan. "
Chen Ping said to Liu Bang.
Originally, Liu Bang planned to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. Anyway, he had soldiers and food in his hands, so he didn't panic.
But now, the Qin army has captured Shuzhong, which is tantamount to giving Liu Bang a drudgery, so that he no longer has the capital to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight.
The Battle of Handan, now Liu Bang has to participate even if he doesn't participate.
"That's the only way to go. This time, Tyranny must be destroyed."
Liu Bang gritted his teeth and said.
"If we join forces with Han Xin and Xiang Yu, we still have a great chance of winning this battle."
"Alright then, pass on the king's order to bring all the food and grass, and set off tomorrow to go north to Handan."
"In addition, block the news that Shuzhong was conquered by the Qin army. Except for you and me, no one else should know."
Liu Bang finally said to Chen Ping.
"promise."
Chen Ping naturally knew how powerful this was, and this news must not spread among the Han army.
On the other side, after Wang Yong and Lu Zhishen captured Shuzhong, they sent troops from Shuzhong to fight eastward without stopping to attack Badi.
The Qin army came all the way, and the cities along the way fell upon hearing the wind. There were no Han troops stationed in these places.
It wasn't until Wang Yong and Lu Zhishen arrived in the Jiangzhou area that they fought against the eight thousand Han troops temporarily organized by Zhang Liang in Jiangzhou.
Zhang Liang did not go looking for Liu Bang, but was responsible for protecting Liu Bang's family members, as well as the family members of other generals of the Han army, such as Cao Can and Guan Ying. This task was equally important.
Although Zhang Liang only had [-] soldiers in his hands, more than half of them were improvised by him.
However, Zhang Liang succeeded in ambushing the Qin army twice in a row by taking advantage of the steep terrain of Badi, which greatly frustrated the Qin army's vigor to conquer Shuzhong and restored the morale of the Han army.
More than [-] Qin troops led by Wang Yong were blocked by Zhang Liang in the mountains of Badi.
On May 15th, Liu Bang also dispatched [-] troops from Shouchun to Handan to participate in this great battle.
Just when Liu Bang sent troops, the war on Handan had entered a very intense stage.
After Xiang Yu led [-] Chu troops across the Zhangshui River, they were blocked by Huang Zhong's [-] Qin troops, and then Lu Bu came to support him with [-] armored infantry.
In this way, Xiang Yu's [-] Chu army and the more than [-] Qin army led by Lu Bu and Huang Zhong fought several battles north of Zhangshui, and the outcome was not decided.
On the Handan side, as Xu Da took away another 10 elite Qin troops, Xu Feng besieged Handan City with only about [-] troops left, still the main force of the Qin army.
Similarly, the Qi army guarding Handan City also has as many as 10 people, and it is also the main force of the Qi army.
Xu Feng's purpose is not only to besiege Handan City, but more importantly, to eat the main force of the Qi army in Handan City.
On the [-]th, in a mountain forest more than a dozen miles north of Huang Zhong and Lu Bu's camp, the [-] Qi army elite led by Han Xin was hiding here.
"Report, Your Majesty, it has been investigated clearly.
Xiang Yu's Chu army and Qin army had been fighting at Guanyepo for three days, but the Chu army still failed to defeat the Qin army. "
A Qi army scout came to Han Xin and reported.
"Well, it's about the same as the king expected.
Xiang Yu's elite Chu army was severely damaged before, and its strength was greatly weakened.
Although the Qin army has few troops, it is extremely powerful. It is not surprising that Xiang Yu was blocked. We need to help Xiang Yu. "
Han Xin was also overjoyed when he learned that Xiang Yu had led the army to fight the Qin army.
Later, Han Xin learned that Xiang Yu was blocked by the Qin army from the Zhangshui side, so he quietly led the army to arrive here, and prepared to cooperate with Xiang Yu first to eat the Qin army of Huang Zhong and Lu Bu.
"Pass down the king's order to let the soldiers rest well tonight and go to battle tomorrow to cooperate with the Chu army and eat up the Qin army."
Han Xin gave the order.
At the same time, in a mountain depression seven or eight miles southwest of Guanyepo, the [-] elite Qin army led by Xu Da was also resting here.
"General, Your Majesty asked us to come out to find traces of Han Xin's Qi army. What did you bring us here to stay?"
General Qin was very puzzled and asked Xu Da.
"Don't worry, Han Xin doesn't need us to look for him, he will jump out by himself soon."
Xu Da smiled slightly and said.
On the [-]th, Xiang Yu once again led the Chu army to attack Huang Zhong's Qin camp at Guanyepo, and the two sides fought at Guanyepo.
"Kill!"
When the battle between the two armies was in full swing, Han Xin led [-] Qi cavalry to fight there and join the battlefield.
Suddenly, the Qin army panicked, the situation on the battlefield deteriorated, and they struggled to support.
"Report, General, the Qi army has really appeared.
About [-] Qi cavalry suddenly rushed into the battlefield and attacked the troops of the two generals Lu and Huang. "
Not long after Han Xin led the army to attack Lu and Huang's army, Xu Da received the report from the scouts.
"Finally showed up!"
Xu Da breathed a sigh of relief, he was actually betting.
Xu Da looked at the entire battle situation in Handan at this time, and the only thing that allowed him to discover the flaws in the Qin army was Lu Bu and Huang Zhong's [-] Qin army.
Xu Da saw it, and he believed that Han Xin could definitely see it too, but he would not let go of this rare opportunity.
Instead of looking for a needle in a haystack and sending people everywhere to look for traces of Han Xin's men and horses, which would scare the snake away, it's better to wait here and be a squirrel.
"Send an order to General Ma to lead [-] cavalry into battle. The troops of Generals Lu and Huang cannot be defeated."
Xu Da gave the order.
"promise."
Soon, Ma Chao received Xu Da's order to rush out of the col with more than [-] cavalry from the integrated cavalry regiment of the Qin Army, and charged towards the Guanyepo battlefield.
Ma Chao was ambushed by Han Xin before and lost more than 1 cavalry of the Qin Army, and he has been brooding about it.
This time, Ma Chao and his cavalry of the Qin Army all wanted to seek revenge from Han Xin.
Han Xin didn't know that a terrible opponent was secretly eyeing him.
Rumble!
The scene of thousands of horses galloping is extremely spectacular, and the movement is also great.
At a distance of seven or eight miles, the cavalry of the Qin Army led by Ma Chao did not take long to kill them.
Before they reached the battlefield, the Qi army had already spotted them.
"Qin Army, Qin Army cavalry!"
A Qi army scout rushed to Han Xin's side on horseback and shouted loudly.
Han Xin looked up to the southwest, and saw a large number of cavalry over there.
"Why did the cavalry of the Qin army appear so quickly? They didn't come from Handan. There is also a cavalry of the Qin army ambushing nearby."
Han Xin thought about it immediately, his face was not very good-looking.
In this case, only other troops who have ambushed can come to support so quickly.
In other words, someone guessed that he would lead the army to attack Lu and Huang's Qin soldiers.

203 The Battle of Fate between Xiang Yu and Lu Bu
[Please recommend for collection! 】
Rumble!
The [-] cavalrymen of the Qin Army rushed over with great momentum, which disturbed the soldiers of the Qi Army on Han Xin's side, and made the Qi Army, which was originally high in morale, panic instantly.
"It's our reinforcements, our reinforcements are here, kill them!"
On the other hand, on Lu Bu and Huang Zhong's side, the soldiers of the Qin army who had been defeated by the Qi army shouted excitedly at this time, their morale soared, and the Qi army launched a counterattack.
"There is no turning back arrow when you open the bow, follow me to kill!"
Han Xin is not a hesitant character, although he has not yet figured out how Qin Jun guessed that he would attack Lu and Huang Qinjun.
But now, for Han Xin, the more important thing is how to win this battle.
The brave wins when they meet on a narrow road. Now that the advantage of the Qi army's sneak attack is gone, it's time to test their courage and bravery.
"Kill!"
The entire battlefield stretched for more than ten miles. Tens of thousands of cavalry from the Qin and Qi armies galloped and fought in the field, and more soldiers fought in a group.
"Report, there is a surprise attack by the Qi army on the troops of the two generals Lu and Huang. General Xu led the army and killed them. The three parties are now fighting in a melee."
After half a day, Xu Feng was in Handan and received the news.
"Han Xin went to attack Lu Bu and Huang Zhong?"
After hearing this, Xu Feng was also shocked.
However, Xu Feng's expression quickly returned to normal, and he said with some relief: "Thanks to General Xu this time."
"Come here, pass on my order, and send another 2 troops to help Xu Da and the others. It is best to defeat Han Xin and Xiang Yu in one battle."
Then, Xu Feng issued a new order to increase troops from Handan to Lu Bu and Huang Zhong.
The battle between the two sides is finally a big fight.
However, this army of Qin soldiers sent by Xu Feng to rescue Huang Zhong and Lu Bu was ambushed by an elite Qi army on the way, and fell into a bitter fight.
At the critical moment, the [-] infantry left by Xu Da arrived in time and rescued the Qin army from the mouth of the Qi army.
"die!"
Lu Bu rode on horseback and charged at the Qi army's infantry. Every time he swiped his halberd, some enemies would be killed. It was difficult for different enemy soldiers to stop him.
