1020. Battle of Qin Xiang

The next day, the cabinet of Qi held a meeting.

Qi Xiaobai sat on the main seat, watching the people, arguing with each other, the theme of this cabinet meeting was the Xiang family's major destruction of the main force of the Qin army, and the troops were approaching Xianyang City.

The Xiang family besieged Xianyang City for a month, but did not break the city, and finally the Qin army returned to Xianyang Qinwang.

Even so, Xiang Jia's army fought outside Xianyang City and won a big victory, but in the end, because the grain and grass were willing, they had to retreat on all fronts.

This battle made people realize the strength of the Xiang family of Chu State, and even made people realize a fierce man 'Xiang Yu'.

Xiang Jiajun had a young man in his twenties, named Xiang Yu, who once single-handedly killed the commander of the enemy army, so he was famous all over the world.

Now he led 30,000 cavalry to break the Qin army, field Xianyang, and shocked the Qin army, so that the Qin army did not dare to open the city to meet the battle, defended behind closed doors, refused to meet the battle, and became famous all over the world again.

In this battle, the Qin army suffered heavy losses and could not get out of the customs for at least three years, which was both fortunate and tragic for the Qin army.

Fortunately, the background of the Xiang family in the Chu State is not very deep, and it cannot give the Qin State a devastating blow, if the Xiang family breaks through Xianyang in this battle, then the century-old foundation of the Qin State will inevitably be destroyed.

It's a pity that Xianyang is a strong city, and there are many troops of the Quartet Qinwang, and the Xiang family is isolated, and they can win outside Xianyang City and retreat with their whole body, which has proved its strength, or Xiang Yu's strength.

Before, people thought that Xiang Yu was just a horseman, but today's battle proved that Xiang Yu was not only a brave warrior, but also a very good soldier.

However, for the countries, the relationship between the Xiang family and the central government of Chu is not very good, if the central government of Chu supports the Xiang family, I am afraid that the princes of the world will have to pay attention to this Chu country again.

In the battle of Xianyang, Xiang Yu was only 30,000 iron horsemen, and the Qin army reached as many as 500,000, but in the case of such a big disparity in numbers, Xiang Yu relied on his own bravery to fight with the Qin army in the Xianyang field for eight days and eight nights, a total of 36 charges on both sides, the Qin army was defeated, and finally on the eighth day, the Qin army saw Xiang Yu's posture, feared, and opened the city and closed the battle.

And the two-wing Qinwang army that stayed outside Xianyang did not dare to easily meet Xiang Yu's iron cavalry, which was already less than 30,000.

Because there was a problem with the grain and grass in the rear of the Xiang family, Xiang Yu had to go back, otherwise Xiang Yu could create a myth and destroy the feat of the Great Qin Empire with 30,000 iron horses.

However, it is not enough to destroy a country, just have excellent soldiers and excellent generals, but also need a strong rear force, which can make you feel at ease to fight.

The Xiang family is too weak after all, if the Xiang family is behind the Qi State, the Qin State will be destroyed, but behind the Xiang family is only the Xiang family, not even the Chu State, and the grain and grass are all prepared by themselves.

They launched this war for revenge, when this war was launched, the world felt that the Xiang family was crazy, hitting the stone with an egg, and killing themselves, the central government of Chu State, and the forces of foreign relatives wrote many times to ask the Xiang family to apologize to the Qin State, and sent the head of the head of the family to apologize.

Because they were worried that the Xiang family would be defeated and the western part of the Chu State would become the territory of the Qin State, but no one thought that although the Xiang family did not succeed in breaking the Qin, the Xiang family did not lose a single defeat in the war of the Qin State.

Entering Qin, Xiang Yu led the iron cavalry, won every battle, and won the main army of Qin commanded by Wang Ben.

Before Xiang Yu reached Xianyang, Wang Ben of the Qin army organized a large army to meet Xiang Yu, and Wang Jian also wanted to train his son and get a good merit for his son.

The key point is to make up for the failure in Zhao and Qi, blame, but no one thought that Wang Ben led an army of 300,000 to have a large-scale military conflict with Xiang Yu in Nanzheng, this war, the world thinks that Xiang Yu will be defeated.

However, Xiang Yu destroyed Wang Ben with 30,000 pioneer iron horsemen, and the Battle of Nanzheng made Xiang Yu famous all over the world, making people realize that Xiang Yu is not a simple person.

And Wang Ben's evaluation of this battle is only a short four words: "The god of war is alive!" ”

Wang Ben set up a battle formation in Nanzheng, waiting for Xiang Yu to come, he believed that Xiang Yu would fight against him, and he would inevitably fall into a difficult battle of manpower.

After all, he has an army of 300,000 and sufficient logistics reserves, and Xiang Yu is only 30,000 pioneers, even if the reinforcements behind Xiang Yu arrive at her, she is not afraid.

But he didn't expect that it was Xiang Yu who destroyed his battle formation with a word recklessness, a war horse and a spear, and the battle of Nanzheng lasted for three days, and fought nine times in three days, Wang Ben was defeated, and finally fled from Nanzheng and survived.

The battle of Xianyang is a battle between Xiang Yu and Emperor Yingji of Qinzhao, Yingji personally commanded, personally climbed the city tower to cheer for the army, and at the same time King Qin's army reached one million, although only 500,000 people participated in the war, but compared to the number of Xiang Yu, it was also ten times as much.

And the deputy generals Bai Qi, Wang Qian, Wang Ben, and Li Xin can be described as a star lineup, but in this way, in front of Xiang Yu, it is also a devastating defeat.

Bai Qi's evaluation of Xiang Yu is only four words: "The God of War is alive!" ”

Wang Jian also sighed: "How can there be such a brave person in the world? ”

Yingji witnessed the Xianyang Field Battle, he saw the war, he saw Xiang Yu, he was also afraid, a generation of emperors, he was a little timid when he saw Xiang Yu, a fierce general.

However, Xiang Yu is a human being after all, not a god, he also wants to eat, although the Qin State can't beat Xiang Yu on the main battlefield, but attacking Xiang Tang in the back, the children of the Xiang family, cutting off his food and grass, blocking his rear, Xiang Yu can only obediently withdraw his troops.

Of course, the local grain and grass of the Xiang family have been preparing for this war for a long time, and Xiang Yu has also consumed a lot, if there is no Qin army in the rear, Xiang Yu will have to withdraw obediently after some days.

It's just that the Qin State was blocked in the rear, and Xiang Yu had to leave early.

The Xiang family's war against the Chu State, although there were many victories, but there were also defeats, of course, this was not fought by Xiang Yu, the two main battles, Xiang Yu was handsome, and both won.

And the war in the rear has a battle of Yongcheng, which is a battle between the general of the Xiang family, Xiang Yu's uncle, Xiang Tang is the commander, and Zhang Han, a famous general of the Qin State.

This war was also very fierce, Xiang Tang commanded 80,000 troops and Zhang Han's 200,000 troops fought, and finally one day, Yongcheng collapsed, and Xiang Tang fled.

The army of 80,000 people, according to the battle report obtained by the secret guards, was basically wiped out and all of them were killed, but in fact, most of them fled, those who did not escape died, and none of them were alive.

It was also because of the failure in the Battle of Yongcheng that Xiang Yu had to return to help, but Zhang Han did not collide with Xiang Yu, because he was ordered by Xianyang to avoid Xiang Yu.

Although Zhang Han wanted to see who this fierce man who won the Battle of Xianyang was, he did not dare to disobey the orders of the Central Committee of Qin, so he could only evacuate Yongcheng, avoid Xiang Yu, and not engage him.

And Xiang Yu's way back to help was smooth all the way, and no one stopped him.
