Chapter 257 Error Signal
The general and the marshal must master every moment of changes on the battlefield.
When Xiang Liang's entire army was dispatched and launched a general attack on the Qin army, Zhang Han immediately ordered the Qin army to fight with all their might. At the same time, he also saw Hu Hai standing in the rear camp on the high platform.
"The whole army attacked and rushed away the front protection of the Chu army. I sent the order to Li Jian. Now he is the deputy commander of the army. Today, he cannot capture Handan City. Let him come to see him." Zhang Han ordered, and the messenger rushed out in a row.
Among the chaotic army, Li Jian's banner kept rushing in the front.
Regardless of whether Li Jian received the order or not, Zhang Han had no time to wait for the reward, and directly took the tens of thousands of elite Qin soldiers around him who had already prepared, and directly detoured towards the two wings to intercept Zhang Han.
This time, Zhang Han led a chariot troops suitable for rushing on the plains.
Although the mobility of the chariot is far less than that of Xiang Liang's elite cavalry, if we confront each other head-on on the battlefield, the two armies will face each other. There is nothing more suitable than a chariot. Elite cavalry is not good either.
Just as Xiang Liang's army began to attack, three cannons rushed into the air with the screams of breaking through the air. As the sound of breaking through the air sounded, black smoke spread out.
This signal is not common on the battlefield. Once released, it immediately attracted the attention of the coalition forces.
In the rear, the coach of Zhao State Zhang Er saw three black smoke soaring into the sky and frowned slightly. For some reason, his heart suddenly twitched. It seemed that something he didn't notice was missed, which created a sense of fear from the depths of his soul.
But Zhang Er thought about it all, but found no flaws. He sneered. In the face of the powerful lineup of the coalition forces, even if the Qin army wanted to play tricks, they could not make any big waves. After all, in the face of absolute strength, all means were futile.
Zhang Er was just a member of the Wei State. When did he command so many troops? He could not be like a real general on the battlefield. This was also the sorrow of the scholar. Although he had full ambitions, he was helpless and had great ambitions and talent.
Xiang Liang and Zhang Han finally met on the flanks of the two armies.
Zhang Han rushed towards Xiang Liang with the pandoor knife in his hand. When Xiang Liang looked at the armor on Zhang Han, he knew that this must be the commander of the Qin army. When he looked at the flag bearer behind him, he had already confirmed that Zhang Han was the one who was coming.
Xiang Liang sneered, pointed the spear in his hand forward, and the horse under his hips neighed, and the man rushed out. The Chu cavalry beside him shouted and rushed towards Zhang Han.
When the Chu army saw the neat infantry formation behind Zhang Han, they all smiled grimly.
The cavalry faces the infantry, and on this vast plain, the infantry is simply a test stone for the cavalry.
Not only the Chu army, but also Xiang Liang laughed at Zhang Han for being unwise. Until now, Xiang Liang doubted how Zhang Han defeated Chen She and Wu Guang's remaining troops and built a barrier for the Qin Dynasty in the Wuguan area.
"It's a pity that there are no heroes in the world, so farmers like Chen She and Wu Guang were the first to rise up. If Zhang Han had met me long ago, I'm afraid that Xianyang of Qin would have been broken long ago, and their ancestral temple would have been trampled under the battle hooves by my Xiang family." Xiang Liang thought, and his spear stabbed towards Zhang Han suddenly.
Zhang Han suddenly sealed the pandoor knife in his hand.
With just a sound of deception, sparks flashed, Zhang Han's body swayed immediately and almost fell under the horse. Fortunately, the dozens of personal soldiers around him rushed up crazily, and barely resisted Xiang Liang's spear attack.
Zhang Han then got a chance to breathe and retreated with his horse.
The infantry beside him died and injured more than a hundred people in an instant under the impact of the Chu army's cavalry. At this moment, seeing Zhang Han retreating, these infantry were also fighting and retreating, and although they were defeated, they were not panic.
Xiang Liang ordered the people around him to shout and kill him, and followed him with cavalry.
Zhang Han and the others came quickly and retreated slowly. It’s a pity that the old soldiers who were in order to protect the commander Zhang Han were killed and injured by the Chu army.
"The Qin army was really defeated." In Handan City, an old man stood at the top of the city and watched Xiang Liang and Zhang Han fight, and fought a decisive battle on the two small mounds mixed with a small wide area. The Qin army's infantry was no match for the Chu army's elite cavalry at all, and they were only crushed and killed.
"Mr. Fan, do you see the clues of the Qin army?" On the one hand, the fat Zhao Wang Xie asked carefully. For Fan Zeng, Zhao Wang Xie had an inexplicable awe. He always felt that this old man was extraordinary, and he felt that it was impossible to see through. This was a feeling of facing a master in the world.
Fan Zeng, on the top of the city, looked at the defeated Qin army, and a smile gradually appeared on his face and said, "I am famous for the Wuxu Soldier, but I don't expect that Zhang Han is so stupid that he actually intercepts the cavalry with infantry..."
Fan Zeng said here and suddenly frowned. When his face changed drastically, he stomped his feet and said, "No, those two mountain bags cannot be ignored. Send the signal quickly and send orders to the general. Don't advance rashly."
After Fan Zeng said this, a communication soldier immediately agreed and ran down the city, wanting to inform Xiang Liang.
But the soldier had just turned around the corner of the city tower and disappeared from Fan Zeng and Zhao Wangxie's sight. His hands were broken by his neck by his hands hidden in the shadow of the city wall. Without attracting anyone's attention, the hands pulled the communicating soldiers away.
There are five soldiers wearing Chu military uniforms in the shadows. The difference is that these soldiers are wearing black silk cloth on their left arms, which is not easy to pay attention if they are not careful.
In Handan City, a cannon roared, and a ray of black smoke rose up.
Fan Zeng, who was on the top of the city, saw this black smoke, his face changed drastically, and shouted in a stern voice: "There is a gap in the city, quickly catch the person who sends the signal."
The old man was really anxious. He used the old hand like a dead branch to pull out the long sword from his waist and ran down the city. He wanted to catch the spy with his own hands. King Zhao was stunned in shock and immediately waved his hand, letting the guards around him go half of them with Fan Zeng. He still had to leave half to protect himself. After all, this was a war, and he was the noble King Zhao.
Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng agreed that once there was no danger, Fan Zeng would release a black smoke and the Chu army would move forward. If there were two black smoke, the Chu army would withdraw immediately and defend Handan.
Now, when Xiang Liang saw a ray of black smoke rising up, he immediately led his army to rush over without hesitation, trying to wipe Zhang Han out on this plain.
Zhang Han's men were quickly defeated, and some smart soldiers ran towards the hillside.
"Kill Zhang Han first, then enter the Qin camp, and capture Qin II." Xiang Liang was decisive and proud. Such generals often make quick decisions and firmly implement their combat intentions.
All the cavalry quickly dispersed and rushed towards the defeated infantry, while more people chased Zhang Han and tried to kill the Qin army commander first.
Just when Xiang Liang thought he was determined to win, two black smoke suddenly rose from Handan City again. The black smoke had not dissipated before, and the two black smokes made three black smoke faintly form in the sky.
The messenger immediately reported to Xiang Liang.
"No, I'll send an order to withdraw the troops." Xiang Liang immediately felt something was wrong. The messenger beside him immediately turned around and tried to send the order out.
