Chapter 295 The Battle of the Building (3)(1/2)

Chapter 295: Battle of Lou Cang (III)

That night, a sad scene was in the Chu army camp.

Xiang Yu leaned half leaning in the central army's tent with a bad complexion, and he let out a suppressed cough without time, which made the atmosphere in the tent colder.

"Liu Kan, you don't plan to fight us at all."

Chen Ying whispered: "Although he acted like a decisive battle with us and attracted us to Sihong. In fact, he wanted to hold us back and drag us down here. If the Major General continues to attack, it will be dangerous."

"Mr. Chen, how can you gain ambition and destroy your own prestige?"

A general of Chu couldn't help but jump out and said loudly: "I don't believe that our army of more than 100,000 will not be able to break this city in Lou Cang."

"Wang Yi, stop talking!"

Xiang Yu suddenly shouted loudly.

A sickly red color appeared on his pale face.

He took a deep breath and calmed down the tumbling blood. "I heard from the military advisor that if I talk nonsense again, don't blame me for using military law to deal with it."

After two consecutive failures, Xiang Yu seemed to have become much more patient.

"Military advisor, please continue."

Chen Ying glanced at Wang Yi and continued: "It is certainly not impossible to break through the Lou Cang. But the question is, how much does it cost to break through the Lou Cang? Not to mention that the Lou Cang City is high and thick, but just the supplies and weapons he has in stock is already a big trouble.

Today they attacked with poisonous water, forcing us to shoot our own people.

General Wang, if they continue to attack like this, how many of our soldiers do you think will persist? You have also seen the result of the Major General's strong attack today... With the ability of the Major General, he can only stop at the foot of Loucang City and it is difficult to advance again.

Well, let’s go out and we have to build the warehouse, but what should we do next?"

"This..." Wang Yi's face turned red and he closed his mouth.

Chen Ying rubbed his cheeks hard, "Major General, now Lou Cang sent a group of troops to make our army's food road unstable. If the food road is not stable, the morale of the army will be unstable. Since the Huai and Han attacks, the food and grass are not sufficient. We originally expected that capturing Lou Cang could alleviate the difficulties of our army, but now it seems that it is a little different... If I had known it, it would be better to give up Sihong and take directly to Xiang County to join King Jiu of Wei."

Xiang Yu didn't say anything!

In fact, he proposed the suggestion to capture Lou Cang.

I originally thought that this small land in Lou Cang could be easily captured, but unexpectedly, the soldiers were lost and the generals were trapped here.

"If we bypass Lou Cang at this time, it would be like a blow to the Chu people.

The capture of troops in Ruyin made many people dissatisfied and secretly guarded themselves. But now, it has become a contempt for our army.

Therefore, the building and warehouse must be captured, which is crucial to us.

But Lou Cang cannot be a tough enemy... I thought that this Sishui Commander was a martial artist and was not worth mentioning. But I didn't expect that he was such a person."

"Then you go and vote for him!"

Wang Yi couldn't help but mutter, which made Xiang Yu furious. Regardless of his illness and weakness, he jumped up and wanted to kill Wang Yi.

Chen Ying hurriedly dissuaded, "The Major General doesn't have to be angry, General Wang is also a heartless saying. Ying was not shaken, but regretted why she underestimated this person at the beginning and did not inquire seriously... Now, although the Qin army is alone, it comes and goes like the wind and acts meticulously.

We have to send heavy troops to escort food and grass. We have overcome this crisis and think of other ways.

The most urgent task is to think of a perfect solution and take down Lou Cang... In the foolish opinion of the infant, it is naturally the best to be able to fight without blood."

The so-called superior army attacks the plan!

Chen Ying’s statement is indeed reasonable. But how easy is it to take down the stairs warehouse without any blood?

I have calculated privately that if you attack the building warehouse, it is impossible to gain a advantage without 60 to 100 days. But the problem is that they don’t have so much time. Once they are dragged down, it means that Xiang Liang’s pressure will increase.

"Liu Kan will fight if he doesn't fight, and if he doesn't leave, it's like a thorn in his throat, it's really hateful."

Xiang Yu clenched his fists and slammed hard on the long desk, "Mr. Chen, what news is there for you to do when you sent to Lou Cang?"

Chen Ying smiled bitterly and said, "Major General, look at the current situation, is it possible for me to get news?"

"What should I do? Could it be that I just drag it?"

Chen Ying shook her head repeatedly, "I can't drag it, I can't drag it..."

Just when everyone was helpless, a junior school suddenly came to report: "Major General, General Long is back!"

Xiang Yu was stunned for a moment, but did not react, and blurted out, "General Long? That General Long?"

"General Long Qie, he is General Long Qie!"

"Ah!" Xiang Yu couldn't help but feel very surprised when he heard this. He stood up suddenly, bypassed the long case, and asked loudly: "Is Lao Long back? Is he not dead... Where is Lao Long? Take me to see him."

No matter how clever Chen Ying is, Xiang Yu still believes in Long Qi more in his heart.

After all, he was the partner who grew up with him. He thought he had died in the battle of Xu County, but he didn't expect that Long Qi was still alive...

This may be the best news Xiang Yu has heard in the past two days.

From outside the tent, Long Qi was helped in by two soldiers.

"Major General, I'm back!"

"Old Dragon..."

Xiang Yu couldn't help but his eyes turned red and his nose sore. He stepped forward and hugged Long Qie, "It's good that you're not dead, I thought..."

"Major General, Lao Long lost your face and let you down."

Long Qi looked haggard and had a sallow complexion.

He knelt in front of Xiang Yu with a pounce, cried loudly, "I have lost all my sons who have given you to me, and I deserve to die."

"Lao Long, victory or defeat is a common thing for military affairs. Get up quickly, get up quickly... If you lose, you will lose. Look at me, aren't you losing in a row now?

The main general of Lou Cang is the guy we met in Zhuluo Mountain back then.

The day before yesterday and yesterday... I broke it in his hand for two consecutive times."

"Ah, Major General, you lost too?"

Xiang Yu obviously didn't want to get entangled with this issue anymore. Being able to admit failure is already his limit. If you discuss it again, it would be impossible.

"Old Long, sit down quickly." He pulled Long Qi and sat down in the big tent, and looked up and down, "Old Long, how did you escape?"

"That's a long way to go!"

Long Qi said bitterly: "That day I was attacked in Xu County and the entire army was wiped out. I was also injured by Qin Gou and almost lost my life... Fortunately, I met someone who rescued me, took me out of the battlefield and was about to raise me. This was just a little bit. I heard that the Major General was at the foot of Loucang City, so I brought that person to see you... Major General, that is a master who is proficient in military tactics."

"oh?"

When Xiang Yu heard this, he couldn't help but widen his eyes and asked curiously: "Where is the master now?"

"Just outside the tent, waiting for your summons."

Xiang Yu and Chen Ying looked at each other, then quickly stood up and said, "Lao Long, how can you let the master wait outside the tent? Come and invite the master quickly!"

After a while, a young man stepped into the big tent.

He looked about in his early twenties, with a youthful face, but majestic and calm spirit.

Is this a master?

Xiang Yu was stunned! Why did he look younger than me...

"Han Xin, a little man, is from Huaiyin!" The young man walked into the tent and bowed, "I have heard of the name of the general for a long time, so I come to visit today!"

Suiyang was the capital of the Song Dynasty in ancient times.

Lu Jia looked at the ancient and heavy city wall, took a deep breath, and clenched his fists hard.

After returning from Xue County, he came directly to Suiyang Ancient City with a letter of alliance with the governor of Xue County Wang Ke.

This will be my place to show my talents!

He secretly cheered himself up. Since joining Liu Kan, Liu Kan has respected him as a guest of honor and asked him for advice on many things. This is undoubtedly a kind of kindness for Lu Jia. The more he did this, the more Lu Jia hoped to do something for Liu Kan.

But he also knew that Liu Kan had no shortage of counselors under his tent.

Whether it is Chen Ping, Chen Daozi, or Kuai Che... these people have been following Liu Kan for a long time and have a deep foundation. A person who has just defected to the past will definitely cause dissatisfaction among Chen Ping and others as soon as they come up. Therefore, when Liu Kan discusses matters, Lu Jia mostly remained silent and did not stand up and speak. First, Kuai Che and others did a good job, and second, they were to protect themselves.

Lu Jia believes that there will always be a chance for him to stand out.

Now, the opportunity has come...

Chen Ping went to Henan, and Kuai Che went to Hebei.

Jia Shao was busy with contact with Shuzhong. Shusun Tong seemed to like to intervene too deeply, and only wandered around the edge, so he recommended some talents.

So, there was a chance to perform.

When he was ordered to supervise Pengcheng, he immediately designed a feasible strategy.

First he went to Xue County, made an alliance with Wang Ke, and then he went to Zhang Han to persuade Zhang Han to cooperate.

Lu Jia knew very well that in Sishui County, he was a three-legged squad. The Qin army, the Chu army and the Lou Cang army... In comparison, the Lou Cang army was the weakest, but the capital in his hand was the largest. Lu Jia needed to convert this capital into Liu Kan's advantage.

Then the trip to Suiyang is the key!

If the trip to Suiyang is successful, Liu Kan's power will be created to the extreme.

Next, just one suitable opportunity was needed, Liu Kan took the opportunity to escape from Sishui and switch to Jiuyuan County.
To be continued...
