400,000 alliance troops!
He was about to leave Julu!
Liu Bang's less than 100,000 troops had brought immense pressure to Guanzhong.
What kind of scene would the mighty army of 400,000 soldiers look like?
The troops led by Xiang Yu were the most elite of the rebel army. Putting aside the alliance of the other six vassals, just the strength of their headquarters alone was enough to kill Liu Bang in a second. At this moment, they were even able to bring great pressure to the Qin army.
Ying Lin is on the wall of the pass.
He looked towards the northeast.
"Duan Xiu, Can Gang, Lu Mu, what do you think of this matter?”
"Master, these so-called rebel armies talk about exterminating the Qin Empire and attacking the Wudao Empire, but their methods are thousands of times more brutal than the laws of the Qin Empire!”
"However, the news of Xiang Yu and the giant deer surrendering and the arrival of a large army will inevitably bring great pressure to the soldiers and civilians inside the pass. This will be a heavy blow to the morale of the army.”
Ying Lin said," Draw up an edict immediately. Report all the cities that the rebels have slaughtered and the places where the people have been killed. Tell Ziying to announce this to all the cities!"”
"Yes, sir!"
The Dragon Guards understood their master's plan.
This was an opportunity for Xiang Yu to kill and surrender.
They wantonly publicized the atrocities of the rebel soldiers and aroused the hatred of the Qin people.
Fishing vessels were very important.
A great man once said,"If we don't occupy the fishing boat's high ground, the enemy will!"
Qin's laws were too harsh.
The punishment was too cruel.
Ying Lin had to admit this.
However, there was nothing he could do about it.
The world had been divided for too long.
The time for the world to be unified was too short.
If he didn't maintain the high-pressure state during wartime.
Great Qin had gone through great difficulty to unify China, and it would once again be divided.
the whole world rebelled against Qin's general trend.
In essence, it was the old nobles of the Six Nations who were causing trouble.
They wanted to restore the country and return to the Warring States Period.
What was the situation in the Warring States Period? It was filled with slaughter and blood!
Ying Lin decided to expose them one by one in the imperial edict and the criminal exhortation, letting the world understand the actions of the so-called anti-Qin rebel army, letting the world understand the ugly faces of these rebel armies.
Very quickly.
Under Ziying's push.
One denunciation after another spread throughout Guanzhong.
It instantly caused a huge uproar and discussion.
The rebel army led by Xiang Yu had committed countless crimes. It was not an exaggeration to call them tigers and wolves. The 200,000 Qin soldiers on the Julu Battlefield, dozens of cities that had been slaughtered, and millions of vengeful souls were all floating in the land of Hua Xia!
…………
In the evening.
Liu Bang led the army to arrive at the pass.
The size of this main force exceeded 60,000.
Half of them were the victorious troops from the Western Expedition, and their combat ability was relatively strong. If they really fought, the Qin army would have no advantage in terms of size.
Of course.
Liu Bang was not relaxed either.
The Qin army had a solid pass to defend.
Even if they had several times the enemy's troops, it was definitely not an easy task to break through a heavily guarded pass.
Liu Bang rested for a day.
He sent Fan Kuai, Zhou Bo, and Cao Can to launch a probing attack.
As expected, the waves of attacks were all repelled. There should be about 10,000 defenders at the pass.
It was different from dealing with the Nascent Soul.
No matter how Liu Bangjun provoked him.
Ying Lin was just holding on and not coming out, putting on the appearance of a protracted battle.
Liu Bang was so anxious that he was about to spit fire.
He could only look for Zhang Liang to discuss countermeasures.
? Zhang Liang said," Actually, there is no need for you to be so anxious. Ying Lin seems calm, but I think he is just pretending to be calm for us to see. Ying Lin is more anxious."”
"Why is that?" Liu Bang was stunned.”
"Xiang Yu's army stationed in Julu has just started to move out. 400,000 troops will be able to enter Hangu Pass in a month at most.”
At this point.
He paused.
Zhang Liang suggested," Pei Gong, you can build a strong camp at the pass. You can cook and train your soldiers. You can surround them for a long time without attacking. In this way, Ying Lin could neither advance nor retreat. In the end, he would only fall into a passive situation.”
This plan.
It hit Ying Lin's vital point.
Ying Lin's greatest enemy was not at Wu Pass, but at Hangu Pass.
Once Liu Bang adopted Zhang Liang's strategy of surrounding and not attacking, Ying Lin would be in a very passive and embarrassing situation. There were only so many Qin soldiers in the pass. As the saying goes, a clever housewife cannot cook a meal without rice.
Once heavy troops are deployed at Hangu Pass.
The defense of the Wu Pass would be weakened rapidly.
Zhang Liang would definitely be able to find the flaw and take down the pass in one go.
However, if they left Hangu Pass alone, the 400,000 strong army would not be a joke, and Xiang Yu's combat strength would not be a joke either.
In the end.
Ying Lin couldn't hold his breath.
There was a high chance that he would come out of seclusion for a decisive battle.
That would be exactly what Liu Bang wanted.
They had already dug trenches, laid ambushes, and built strong camps outside.
"Military advisor, this plan of waiting for fatigue and stopping by staying still is indeed a foolproof plan.”
Xiao He paused for a moment and continued,""However, I'm afraid that I'll miss the opportunity to enter the pass.”
King Huai of Chu had an oath with the vassals: Those who enter Guanzhong first will be granted the title of King of Guanzhong!
Liu Bang was only a wall away!
The King of Guanzhong that he had always dreamed of.
It was within reach!
Xiang Yu arrived first.
How could he accept this!
Zhang Liang cupped his hands and tried to persuade him.
"Lord Liu, Lord Xiao."
"Our first mission is to destroy Qin!”
"The Guanzhong King is definitely not so easy to fight for!”
"After the Battle of Julu, Xiang Yu's prestige was so great that King Huai was unable to control him at all. According to what he knew, Xiang Yu had already promised to confer Zhang Han the title of King Yong. This meant that he did not even care about the Pact with King Huai!”
"Even if Liu Bang enters the pass first, he might not be able to get the Guanzhong King. He might even offend Xiang Yu.”
Liu Bang shook his head.
He had always listened to Zhang Liang.
Only this time, he was unwilling to accept it.
Since the Western Expedition.
Day and night.
I'm always looking forward to the king of Guanzhong.
Now, he was only one step away from fulfilling the promise of King Huai.
He did not believe that the weakened Great Qin would be able to stop his army.
Liu Bang was unwilling!
He was absolutely unwilling!
Liu Bang was not the only one who was unwilling to accept this.
Xiao He, Fan Kuai, Cao Can, Zhou Bo, Xiahou Ying, Li Shiqi, etc.
These trusted aides and direct descendants were also unwilling to give up. Not only would they not be able to explain themselves if they gave up, but they would also not be able to explain themselves to them.
Zhang Liang said.
He was Han Wangcheng's man.
He didn't belong to Liu Bang's team.
That's why he's so casual!
Li Shiqi suggested," I heard that there is an ancient road in the north of Mount Kui. We can go around the pass directly. Our army has the absolute advantage. Why don't we go around Mount Kui and attack the enemy?"”
Liu Bang's eyes lit up.”
Zhang Liang sighed.
He was somewhat disappointed.
Liu Bang was indeed a hidden dragon.
However, it was obvious that he was not mature enough at this moment.
He was unable to truly recognize his own abilities and position.
Roundabout the mountain to attack.
It was a good strategy.
If Ying Lin wasn't the one guarding the pass.
Of course, Zhang Liang would consider this method.
Now, his intuition told him that this offensive strategy had a lot of risks and variables.
However, if Liu Bang insisted on doing so.
He could only plan it out.
Hopefully, there wouldn't be any major problems.
