Chapter 818: Lian Po is old?

"Han Xin encountered an attack by an army several times his size, and he was not chaotic in the face of danger, and he lined up against the water to repel Sima Ying's forward."

"Quickly swam across again, waded through the water to attack the deviant division intercepted on the south bank, rushed out of a gap, and finally broke through?"

After listening to the detailed battle report, Wang Ben was silent, obviously not satisfied with this result.

The silence was broken by coughing, Wang Ben gasped, he was an old problem left by many years of war, as soon as the autumn and winter, the weather turned cold, he couldn't stop coughing, and he couldn't stop coughing for months.

During the recuperation period in Xianyang, thanks to the "kang" drummed up by Heifu, life was slightly better, but now that he was out of the customs to fight, the conditions in the army were limited, and the war situation was unfavorable, and his condition worsened.

failed to capture Han Xin, and his subordinates were killed and wounded, and it was not as exaggerated as Gan Tang's "tens of thousands" as he said, but thousands of people were killed on the spot, and thousands were captured, while Han Xin escaped with five or six thousand people......

After looking at the battle map between the two armies drawn by Sima Ying, Wang Ben pondered it carefully, and sighed even more.

"This is the Han Xin who made me fail, it's really terrifying."

In Gan Tang's impression, the Marquis of Tongwu rarely praised people, especially the children of the Wang family, Wang Li and others, and even more derogatory than praised, so he said: "Junhou, Han Xin just took advantage of the loophole, and he was not defeated now, what is the way?" ”

"Not really."

Wang Ben said: "In hindsight, this Han Xin is a strange soldier that Heifu has hidden for a long time, and it is not an easy task to penetrate behind enemy lines, you need to be wise, brave, and have a strong ability to respond to emergencies." ”

"Han Xin went out of Runan in August, did not take the Fangcheng Xia Road, but attacked Kunyang in the north, it seemed that he was willing to seek the near and far, but in fact, he saw that the main grain of our army was transported from Aocang to the south through Yingchuan, and the grain road was cut off, and Nanyang would be shocked."

"Later, he made a move to attack Yingchuan, but in fact, he secretly went to Luyang, not only cut off the grain of Sanchuan, but also transferred the defenders of Nanyang, so he took advantage of the emptiness in the county to kill Wancheng, disturbed my rear, and forced me to retreat......"

In Wang Ben's view, Han Xin, Shen Yun this way, will play Nanyang and Yingchuan defenders.

After learning that the rear was attacked and the enemy would be Han Xin, Wang Ben immediately asked people to check Han Xin's deeds, including the battle of destroying Ouluo in Lingnan, which was reported by Heifu to the imperial court, as well as the sporadic rumors of the battle of Changsha and the battle of Jiangling.

"I'm afraid this is the most capable general under the command of Heifu, and I don't know where he found such a person."

Wang Ben couldn't help but feel a little regretful: "It would be nice if this son was under my command......"

The Great Qin generals withered, especially after the rebellion of the Southern Expeditionary Army, the generals of the DPRK and China were not accepted, Meng Tian could not be used, Li Xin was too far away, and the young Li You, Feng Zai, Wang Li, etc. were very mediocre, and they could only rely on veterans like Feng Wuxue and Wang Ben to support the field.

But in Wang Ben's opinion, Han Xin is not perfect, he is a very talented general, but this has been a victory all the way, I'm afraid it will be too smooth.

"Young people are like this, they are rampant, they are arrogant when they win, and they will be defeated if they are arrogant."

"Han Xin used Qi several times to get his hands easily, so he looked down on our army and saw the generals of Daqin clearly, this time he wanted to repeat the old tricks, but he didn't know that if he used a trick all the time, he would only be seen through!"

Wang Ben expected that Heifu would plot against Hanzhong next, and Han Xin would also go west into Danyang, so he sent someone to intercept him.

He gave a death order to the lieutenants: "You must stop Han Xin!" ”

Let Han Xin make a big fuss in the rear and leave safely, Wang Ben will lose face, and the morale of the northern army will also be slumped......

Fortunately, Wang Ben made the right bet.

It's a pity that he failed to strangle this future general in Danshui!

"Let him escape, and with the help of this son in the future, Heifu will be like a tiger......"

Wang Ben had a headache and felt that this battle was getting harder and harder.

Gan Tang was still immersed in the joy of victory: "Tongwu Hou, with this big victory, you can explain to Xianyang, right?" ”

"A big win?"

Wang Ben shook his head: "Han Xin annihilated at least 30,000 of our army in Shangcai, Kunyang, Luyang, Wancheng, and Danyang......"

Annihilation is not the same as decapitation and killing, but those troops are mostly defeated, and if they are not reorganized, they will no longer be able to fight.

The three grain routes cut off by Han Xin, and the grain burned were even more measured in hundreds of thousands of stones. Nanyang's army could only be hungry and full, and it was about to enter winter, and grain transportation was even more difficult, which was why Wang Ben did not dare to continue to fight on the front line.

In addition to the rear, the defeat of Suixian, the rebellion of Bashu, and the lost counties of Kanto...... Their losses are too great, compared to Danshui's victory, what is it?

Thinking of this, Wang Ben asked, "Did Prime Minister Zuo (Feng Quji) say anything to you?" ”

Gan Tang shook his head: "I didn't say anything." ”

Wang Ben sighed: "Feng Quji also understands that Bashu is all rebellious, and Feng Zheng is surrounded, but our army is really beyond the reach of the whip." Now we can only stabilize the Nanyang Front and prevent Heifu from passing through Hanzhong, and to the north, Yingchuan must also be defended, and we must try to recapture Huaiyang and the chasm! ”

Gan Tang said: "That Xianyang, how to reply, the emperor has been sending envoys recently, urging the Marquis of Tongwu to march and ask about the loss of land......"

After pondering for a moment, Wang Ben said, "Prepare a recital for me and tell Your Majesty." ”

"The situation is difficult, the rebels are like a long snake, and the bandits are also raging in the Kanto, trusted by His Majesty, Wang Ben served the country with an old and crippled body, fought for several months, spent hundreds of millions of dollars in food, but failed to recover an inch of land, and the crime of Ben is also!"

"In the past, the first emperor was eloquent and strategic, swept away Liuhe, and the father and son also served in front of the army and destroyed the five countries. Since he personally participated in the construction of this vast mansion, Wang Ben will not allow anyone to divide her and trample on her! ”

"The rebels in the south, the remnants of the six countries, Wang Ben will do his best to exterminate them, fight for this old life, and also get the kindness of the emperor to the Wang family, and protect the Great Qin Society!"

The cough sounded again, and his body was like a broken candle, flickering and about to be extinguished, but Wang Ben's gaze was as solid as iron:

"Although Lian Po is old, he can still eat!"

"As long as I'm in the day, Heifu, don't think about threatening Guanzhong!"

……

At the same time, Han Xin, who had suffered the first defeat in Danshui, had arrived at Yunguan (Yunxian County, Henan) with a group of remnants of the defeated soldiers......

Yunguan is located on the shore of the Han River, the Han River is wide in the upper reaches of the water, the water potential is gentle, but it flows to the vicinity of Yunguan, because the mountains and rocks on both sides of the river are sandwiched, the river channel narrows abruptly, the water flow is forced into an anti-"S" shaped flow path, there are many whirlpools in the water, and because the slope is larger, it has formed more than ten miles of rapids and rapids, and the mountains and rocks on both sides are like natural stone gates.

Since ancient times, this section of the Han River boat, extremely dangerous, capsized the boat and hit the row of countless people, through this water pass, the water flow is smooth all the way to Xiangyang.

As a result, Yunguan has become a dangerous pass from the land and water into Hanzhong.

With Han Xin's only five or six thousand remaining people, most of them are still hanging lottery, it is difficult to storm this pass, fortunately in the misfortune, 20,000 people from the Dongmen Leopard Department from Jianghan along the northern foot of Wudang Mountain to the west, also arrived here, has conquered Yun Pass, then repelled the enemy army pursuing Han Xin's department, and received them to cross the Han River.

The two sides should have been happy, but Dongmen Leopard had a gloomy face, staring at Han Xin coldly, as if he was about to eat people!

In addition to the nearly 10,000 people under Han Xin's command who were killed or captured, and the losses were too great, what made Dongmen Leopard even more worried was that his son-in-law, Li Cang, was seriously injured after Han Xin was broken when he forcibly crossed the Danshui, and is now being treated and rescued by military doctors in the tent......

And Han Xin also lost his former spirit, he and Dongmen Leopard sat opposite each other outside the tent, their eyes blank.

In addition to the tragic scene of the Battle of Danshui, all that was left in his mind was his disdain for Wang Ben, his own self-defeating, and his own self-restraint.

"Am I like this, and dare to call myself a famous general?"

In hindsight, all this was so ironic, Han Xin clenched his fists, pursed his lips, and then couldn't help but reach for the wine cup and pour it violently.

The wine was very turbid and bitter, but Han Shin liked it, as if he could forget everything about this shame by getting himself drunk......

But the doctor who opened the tent and the little blood stained on his body pulled Han Xin back to the cruel reality.

There are always some facts that must be faced.

Han Xin stood up, and the Dongmen Leopard also got up and roared loudly: "What's wrong?" ”

"General of the East Gate, General Han."

The healer was Chen Wuyi's disciple, and he trembled and said to the two: "Li Duwei, he is no longer in danger of his life, but the anesthetic has not yet passed, and he is still asleep." ”

Dongmen Leopard was overjoyed, glared at Han Xin fiercely, and strode into the camp, but before Han Xin could breathe a sigh of relief, Dongmen Violent Tiger walked out angrily again.

"You quack, where are the feet of Licang!"

The doctor was shocked and hurriedly explained: "General, I have tried my best, and Captain Lidu has been rescued, but his feet have been injured and festered, and his subordinates are really powerless, so in order to save their lives, they can only saw...... off"

Dongmen Leopard couldn't accept it, Han Xin was also like a lightning strike, he remembered that Li Cang fought fiercely in the water, blocking layers of chasing soldiers, and was seriously injured, and finally fell off his horse with an arrow, and was ruthlessly run over by the enemy's chariot, and a group of guards and short soldiers fought hard to snatch him back!

Li Cang is Heifu's most important old disciple, and he is an excellent assistant to Han Xin.

But from then on, the young man who liked to gallop with his heart could no longer stand up, walk, or step on a horse......

For a general who aspires to fame, there is nothing more desperate.

Dongmen Leopard also knew this, and he said angrily:

"The eldest husband should be rampant in the world, but he can only wear a couch and lie on the couch for a lifetime, so it is better to die!"

The Dongmen Leopard completely broke out, and immediately gritted his steel teeth, picked up the halberd in his hand, and walked towards Han Xin with a fierce attitude, and the halberd pointed at him and said:

"You crotchman! My son-in-law has become a cripple, my daughter will be widowed, and my husband will also take off one of your legs! ”
