Chapter 407 The Battle of Chu and Han

The Jingxiang War broke out suddenly. Although Liu Bang and Xiang Zhuang did not want to fight rashly with each other at this time, sometimes the evolution of the situation was not subject to human will.

In short, the first general meeting broke out suddenly!

To count the reasons, we have to start with the desperate strangle between the scouts and the racist.

Because the Chu army scouts had the upper hand in the secret battle, General Lu Tai of the Han Dynasty and General Zhou Guanfu of the Cavalry transferred more cavalry to form a scout team of fifty cavalry. Unexpectedly, the Chu army's reaction was quick, and they formed a scout team of hundreds of cavalry that night. As a result, the Han army scouts suffered more losses that night, even worse.

The next morning, Zhou Guanfu was furious when he learned the news. He immediately led two thousand cavalry out to sweep the enemy in four directions, hunting more than a dozen Chu army scouts in succession. The Chu cavalry general Meng Keng was Meng Feng's clan brother and was also a master who refused to suffer losses. He immediately took two thousand cavalry out to sweep the Han army scouts, and then the two cavalry inevitably collided.

After more than half an hour of fierce battle, Meng Keng was defeated by Zhou Guanfu and fled.

When Xiang Zhuang learned the news, more than a thousand remaining cavalry had fled to the front of the camp, but the Han cavalry chased him very tightly. If the Chu cavalry did not send troops to rescue him, of course, Xiang Zhuang would not refuse to save him. If he did not refuse to save him at this time, it would not only make Meng Keng and hundreds of remaining cavalry feel heartbroken, but also make the 400,000 soldiers in the camp feel cold.

Moreover, Zhou Guanfu was so arrogant that he dared to chase the Chu army camp with only two thousand cavalry, which also gave Xiang Zhuang the opportunity to capture him. No matter how brave and good at fighting, he could still lead two thousand remaining cavalry to defeat the 50,000 cavalry of Chu? With the order of Xiang Zhuang, 50,000 cavalry came out in full swing and surrounded Zhou Guanfu and two thousand Han cavalry.

Zhou Guanfu is really fierce. Faced with the numerous encirclements of tens of thousands of Chu cavalry, he was still fearless. He led two thousand Han cavalry to clash back and forth in the Chu army formation, shouting fiercely. Wherever the two iron halberds went, the Chu army suddenly felt like waves splitting, and no one could stop it for a moment. Just as he was about to break through, Xiang Zhuang immediately ordered an arrow to be fired. The latest chapter of the Holy Temple

The Chu cavalry suddenly shot thousands of arrows at once, and the Han cavalry following Zhou Guanfu were all caught and fell off the horse. However, the red dragon horse under Zhou Guanfu's crotch was fast and still invincible. Just as Zhou Guanfu was rushing left and right, he was storming, and the Han general Lu Tai arrived with 80,000 Han cavalry and launched a tide-like attack on the Chu cavalry.

Xiang Zhuang then immediately launched more than 300,000 infantry to join the battle. Not long after, Liu Bang also rushed to the battlefield with more than 300,000 infantry and 100,000 Hu cavalry. The first Chu-Han War broke out on the battlefield in Jingxiang. This war broke out so suddenly that even King Han Liu Bang and King Chu Xiang Zhuang were not mentally prepared enough.

Xiangzhuang's hand guardrail stands solemnly on the towering nest car, and the entire battlefield is in sight.

On the left wing of the battlefield, the cavalry on both sides were strangling, and the middle and right wings were infantry duels. The ones at the front of the formation were still heavy armored infantry. Most of them were tall and solid, covered with heavy scale armor, holding shields in their left hand and swords in their right hand. Thousands of people lined up in a row, shouting, cursing and pushing forward.

Although they were hundreds of steps away, Xiang Zhuang could still feel the explosive power they exuded. If the heavy cavalry was the sharpest spear in the world, then the heavy infantry was the strongest shield in the world. When the two strong shields suddenly collided together, the violent impact force that burst out was enough to burn every man's heart!

Following the heavy armored infantry were the halberd spear soldiers. Most of them were wearing light leather armor, and at most they were equipped with an extra heart protection mirror on the chest vest.

The halberd spear soldiers were divided into two groups, one holding a spear of more than three meters in length, and crossing the heads of the front row of heavy armored infantry and thorning forward frantically. They were like poisonous snakes hiding in the shadows. With every time they spit out a letter from the poisonous snake, an opponent's heavy armored infantry would inevitably cry and fall into a pool of blood.

Another scattered spear soldiers held flying spears and threw one of them into the enemy's formation.

Amid the deafening shouts of the soldiers on both sides, thousands of flying spears were empty, and they were thrilling and violently gathered into the other party's formation. In the crowded formation, endless screams and wails would burst out. Even the strongest shield could not stop the thrust of the flying spear. The latest chapter of the Holy Temple

The last one of the formations were rows of archers. With the first time the archers on both sides pulled their bows, a large number of arrows would rise up in the air, and intertwined in the air to form an endless rain of arrows, whistling down towards the formations of both sides, wielding spears, and trying to throw flying spears would fall one by one...

The entire battlefield is like a big pot of boiling boiling water, boiling and boiling.

Looking at the noisy battlefield, Xiang Zhuang was as good as a battle, and his hands couldn't help but sweat.

In this battle, in addition to leaving 10,000 halberds and 20,000 archers to guard the camp, the remaining 370,000 cavalry and infantry army had already emerged in full swing. However, the Han army on the opposite side was even more powerful, especially the cavalry. The Han cavalry and Huyi cavalry also had at least 200,000 cavalry, which posed a great threat to the Chu army.

Bailixian put down the feather fan on his forehead and said calmly: "King, the Han army has begun to change its formation."

Xiang Zhuang nodded silently. After the initial test of the front, the Han army began to change its formation first. Obviously, the Han army had discovered the weakness of the Chu army, at least they believed it was a weakness. This weakness was the Chu cavalry on the left wing, because the Hu cavalry, which was as thick as an ant colony, was gathering in large quantities on the left wing!

Standing on the nest cart and looking down, the entire Han army's formation was like a horizontal sledgehammer. The infantry on the right wing had a hammer handle and a hammer tail, while the cavalry on the left wing had a huge hammer body. This huge hammer body was still expanding. When it expanded to its maximum, it would hit the Chu army violently.

The formation of the Chu army was more like a long sword. The infantry on the right wing had a long handle and a knife tail, while the cavalry on the left wing had a long sword head. The arc-shaped blade was facing the Han army. The two wings were slightly retracted, tough and sharp. However, it was hard to predict whether the huge hammer of the Han cavalry could be blocked.

Xiang Tuo said in a deep voice: "Old Liu Bang wants to defeat my left-wing cavalry first!"

After saying this, Xiang Tuo said with a grim voice: "King, please order the cavalry to fight. I don't believe it. The 50,000 elite cavalry in our Great Chu is not even comparable to the 100,000 Hu cavalry!" Xiang Tuo's words were not nonsense. Although the number of cavalry in the Chu army was not as good as the other party, the excellent equipment and the improved quality of war horses were definitely not comparable to that of the opponent.

"No." Xiang Zhuang gently raised his right hand and said calmly, "There is no need."

"The advantage of the cavalry is that they are fast. Rapid attacks and fast attacks are what they should do. As for the head-on decisive, it should be handed over to the infantry." After saying this, Xiang Zhuang said again, "Tell the order that the cavalry immediately pretends to move to the left to cover the baggage troops. When the baggage troops are completed, the cavalry will detour behind the large formation and attack the right wing of the Han army sideways!"

With the order from Xiang Zhuang, the 50,000 Chu cavalry on the left wing moved in an instant, like a herd of rushing and migrating wild bison, surging towards the left side of the entire battlefield. Hundreds of thousands of iron hooves trampled on the dry ground violently, raising up the smoke and dust, soaring into the sky, and even the vision of the main generals on both sides was disturbed.

With the protection of smoke and dust in the sky, thousands of large baggage trucks that were originally hidden under the banner slowly rushed towards the left wing. Tens of thousands of baggage light soldiers immediately followed him became busy, dismantling the carriage, cutting off iron nails, connecting the carriage, assembling the baffle, and finally putting the bed crossbow frames on the top of the carriage...

#############

The Han army's main formation, Liu Bang, Zhang Liang, Chen Ping and Zhou Bo, frowned at the same time.

The abnormal behavior of the Chu cavalry was completely beyond their expectations. Liu Bang would not say that he had almost never won the war. Although Zhang Liang and Chen Ping were full of wisdom, they were not his commander in the battle. Although Zhou Bo was a famous general, he was not very good at cavalry warfare. Only Lu Tai could understand the intentions of the Chu cavalry at once.

Lu Tai bowed to Liu Bang and said respectfully: "King, the Chu cavalry is obviously preparing to detour behind us and then attack our left wing (the left wing of Han is the right wing of Chu)."

Liu Bang nodded and said, "How should I deal with it?"

Lu Tai smiled slightly and replied, "Just ask the cavalry to bite the Chu cavalry."

Lu Tai has one tactical guiding ideology, that is, cavalry against cavalry, infantry against infantry.

Although this tactical guiding ideology is simple, it is extremely cruel. It is not easy for the Chu army infantry to defeat the Han army's infantry, but the Han cavalry can defeat the Chu army's cavalry in a relatively short time with its absolute superior force. This is equivalent to the Han cavalry detour behind the Chu army's infantry, and the defeat of the Chu army is inevitable.

"It makes sense." Liu Bang nodded happily, turned his head and shouted, "Tell me the whole cavalry to attack, bite the Chu cavalry, eat them, eat them..."

#############

Zhou Guanfu withdrew his gaze from the distant nest cart, and a trace of ferocious murderous intent suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth. He then raised his right iron halberd and pulled it forward hard. At the same time, he looked up at the sky and said, "The whole army obeys the order and chases!"

Ten thousand Han cavalry and ten thousand Hu cavalry chased the butts of the Chu cavalry and chased them up.

Zhou Guanfu took the lead and ran westward against the setting sun. Looking back leisurely, he saw the cavalry behind him like a tide, countless horses were undulating, endless manes were flying wildly in the wind, hundreds of thousands of iron hooves trampling wildly on the desolate earth. Amid the sound of iron hooves like the tide, there were even rolling smoke and dust soaring up to nine nights.

In this situation, the fire in Zhou Guanfu's heart started to burn.

"Ahhh..." Zhou Guanfu raised his head to the sky, let out a wild roar that was not like a human being, and then he attacked each other with two iron halberds in his hand. How could the great man be unable to defeat with such a powerful army? Xiang Zhuang, be prepared to die!
