Xiapi is bordered by Surabaya in the south, Yishui and Wushui flow from the north, the city and Surabaya meet, and the west is Geyi Mountain, which can be described as easy to defend and difficult to attack.

"Have you ever heard the story of the snipe and the clam fighting?"

Qin Jia, a hero from Lingxian County, stood on the edge of Surabaya, with four thousand soldiers standing behind him.

He has been in a beautiful situation recently, not only overthrowing the rule of Qin officials with the heroes who have made friends in several nearby counties, but also seizing Pengcheng and supporting the old Chu nobleman Jing Ju as king. And he established himself as Ling Yin, Dong Xuan, a native of Gongxian County, as Shangzhuguo, Zhao nobles Zhao Sao as Mo Ao, Fu Liren Zhu Jishi as the left Sima, Zheng Bu as the right Sima, and Xu Ding Ji as the stable Yin......

This was something Qin Jia had never dreamed of in the past, but now, his ambition was rapidly expanding, not only to take all of Surabaya County, but also to capture the neighboring East China Sea, forcing another "Chu king" in Huainan to admit the fact that the two Chu were standing side by side.

He raised his whip and pointed at the north bank of Surabaya, and the two armies facing each other said: "The current situation is the battle between the sandpiper and the clam army, the Qin army of 5,000 people, attacking two or three thousand in the city, will only lose both, we will wait and wait, wait for the two to hide, and then sit back and enjoy the benefits of the fisherman!" ”

In his opinion, the sandpiper and the clam are really two Chu, and the fisherman is the Qin army.

At this moment, the scout pointed to the north shore and said loudly: "Ling Yin, Mo Ao, there is a fight over there!" ”

Qin Jia and Zhaosao hurriedly straightened up and looked, but they saw a scene that they would never forget.

A few miles north of Xiapi City, the array of the Qin army, which was pressed by black, suddenly broke out into a riot......

A touch of red, accompanied by the dust it raised, appeared in the northeast direction of the array, but it was a chariot and cavalry that attacked the rear of the Qin army.

When Qin Jia heard from the "Seeing the Sun", who was in charge of overlooking the distance, that army only had dozens of cars and more than two hundred horses, he showed an incredible expression.

"With one hit ten? The impact is still the strong Qin army, isn't that self-defeating? ”

However, in the imagination, the great defeat of the attackers did not appear: the chariot rode too fast, and it came from the northeast where the Qin army was not fortified, and it relied on the impact of dozens of chariots to rush directly into the 1,000 people who were hurriedly transferred to the rear by the commander of the Donghai County!

The car, the wings of the army, so trap Jianchen, to strengthen the enemy, cover the north, before and after the enemy, the line Chen is undecided, that is, trapped!

They stirred up the queue, which made the commotion in the rear of the Qin army expand in an instant.

Qin Jia could see, and the head of Xiapi City was naturally at a glance, at this time, the gate of Xiapi City was also opened, and two thousand people swarmed out, led by Xiang Sheng, and rushed towards the front of the Qin army that was about to turn around!

At this time, even though the Qin army had 5,000 people, the front and rear formations could only fight on their own.

Then, the battle situation did not fall into the usual stalemate, dozens of chariots were not flexible enough, and they had been trapped in the Qin army, and the Chu people abandoned the chariots and fought with swords on the left and right.

But more than 200 horsemen, under the leadership of the red flag, left the battle situation and looked from afar.

The Qin front army of 3,000 people resisted Xiang Sheng's offensive, and after the rear army was raided, it fell into a melee with the chariot soldiers.

The Chinese army suddenly became empty.

The red-robed general found out.

The cavalry moved again, and they were like a red-hot sword, speeding up to cut through the gaps between the front and rear armies, and actually cut the weak queue between the two formations of the Qin army and rushed forward, killing the Qin Zhong army, which was difficult to care about in front and back, and rushed straight to the flag of the commander of the Donghai County.

The next moment, the banner of the captain of Donghai County fell!

The Qin soldiers were all good at fighting, and they were not without fighting spirit, but when they were suddenly attacked, the banner of the county lieutenant also fell inexplicably, and everyone lost their unified command, and they fell into chaos, Qin Jia looked ...... from a distance

"It's like an untied knot!"

This analogy is very appropriate, after losing command, the front and rear formations of the Qin army have already disintegrated, no one knows what is happening, they only know that they are defeated, and they have fled from the array.

And the red chariot cavalry shouted in pursuit, and the Chu people killed in Xiapi City also began to fight back violently, and Xiang Sheng pursued the enemy for ten miles, and the corpses were all over the field......

Qin Jia was a few miles away, and he didn't know what kind of battle had taken place over there, but he only knew that the siege, beheading, flag-cutting, and trapping were all completed in just a moment!

"Qin Jun lost?"

He and Zhaosao looked at each other, Qin Jia had sent people to test before, the soldiers of Donghai County were not small and weak, and they were well-equipped, with strong bows and crossbows, spears and long ge, which seemed to be difficult to defeat, but in just a few moments, they were beaten to pieces.

They ask themselves that they will never be able to do it......

Qin Jia and his subordinates watched this scene blankly, and even forgot to send someone to cross the river to take what he just said about "the fisherman's profit".

Until a red-robed horseman riding a black horse held a halberd and carried the head of Qin Donghai's lieutenant to the north bank of Surabaya.

The horse's front hooves had entered the river, but he saw that he had stuck his halberd deep in the sand, straightened his waist, and shouted loudly to the opposite bank:

"I'm a member!"

"The eldest grandson of Xia Xiangjun (Xiang Yan)!"

"Great Chu Upper Pillar Country!"

This is like a huge thunder, everyone on the south bank of Surabaya heard it, and they all trembled, and remembered that he only led a few hundred chariots to ride, and he dared to charge at the Qin array of 5,000 people, and beheaded the generals, cut the flag, and fell into battle, as if he had the courage of ten thousand people.

For a moment, his heels couldn't help it, and he slowly moved backwards, and the sound of rustling steps was everywhere.

Zhao Sao also said: "Everyone is evil, and thousands of people are wasted, and it is really ......."

Qin Jia frowned: "He's just one person, what's there to be afraid of?" Pass my orders, and those who dare to retreat ......"

Before he could finish speaking, the thunderous voice on the opposite side interrupted Qin Jia's words.

"Qin Jia, you support the pseudo-king Jingju and pretend to be Ling Yin! What does it mean to sit across the strait and watch our army fight with the Qin people today? Do you want to fight the Chu division with the Qin army? ”

Countless eyes stared at him behind him, and Qin Jia had no choice but to bite the bullet and come out to answer:

"Xiang Ji, you should know, the noble relatives of Chu, the three Lu are the greatest, the last Chu princes are all dead, and the monarch has no owner, so the three clans of Zhaojingqu should govern the Chu country. My king is the orthodox king of Chu. It's not a herding cow or a child that you pick up at will. Why don't you let him abdicate quickly, respect my king together, I can make you a great horse! ”

Xiang Ji laughed: "Ridiculous! My family is a general, so I can restore Chu after that, as for who should abdicate? Who is Orthodox? In this way, the two of them are not here, you and I, as courtiers, why not fight here? ”

Xiang Ji openly challenged, Qin Jia was stunned, but the young man opposite raised a hand and beckoned to continue the invitation:

"Qin Jia, you and I will use two boats, no armor, only one sword, in the middle of the river, in the end, only one person will be alive, and the other person will sink in Surabaya, so that the Chu people will not kill each other and cheapen the Qin people!"

If it was placed ten years ago, Qin Jia, as a county hero, faced the provocation of others, and promised to fight him to the death.

But he was in his forties, his spirit was gradually gone, and when he saw that he was brave and brave, he had just swept through the Qin army, and there was almost no enemy, and he felt that he was probably not his opponent, so he pretended to be contemptuous and said:

"How can Ben Ling Yin fight with a child?"

As he spoke, the soldiers in Xiapi City had already exhausted, standing behind Xiang Ji, loudly mocking Qin Jia for his timidity and not daring to accept the challenge.

"Qin Jia, Jing Ju, cowardly as a chicken!"

There is also a bit of rhyme, but this is Zhang Liang's idea.

The whispering behind him became louder, Qin Jia's face was a little unable to pull down, and when he was in a dilemma, it was also a coincidence, south of Xiapi, the smoke and dust were billowing, but it was the large army of Xiang Ji who came, looking at the posture, there were as many as four or five thousand people, and there was a posture of crossing Si......

The enemy army is large, and he has just won a battle, his morale is high, even if he attacks halfway, there is no certainty of victory, Qin Jia was afraid, so he scolded him:

"Xiang Ji is treacherous, asked me to challenge, but left an ambush soldier, what a faithless villain! The second and third sons, Mingjin, quickly withdraw the troops! ”

……

"If the king is worried, he will be humiliated, and if the king is humiliated, he will die, and he will be humiliated by me, but he has no anger to fight, it can be seen that the so-called King Jingju of Chu and Ling Yin Qinjia are not very popular, and the victory or defeat of the two Chu can be known."

Standing at the head of the city, seeing that Qin Jia on the other side of Surabaya had withdrawn, Zhang Liang shook his head, if he could provoke Qin Jia and let him fight with Xiang Ji here, he would be able to make the two Chu merge into one Chu in advance.

Looking at Xiang Ji who had retreated from 4,000 soldiers in a word, he was marching towards the city gate on horseback under the cheers and hugs of the people in Xiapi.

In the process of breaking through the Qin formation, Zhang Liangke could see it clearly than Qin Jia, and knew how Xiang Ji discovered the flaws in the Qin formation in an instant, and led only 200 people to cut into the enemy army and capture the flag.

"Those who are in a military situation, thunder and wind, the last to come, the first to come, the clutch and the homeland, the changeable, and the light disease to control the enemy...... Is that this Major General Xiang talking about? ”

Zhang Liang did not hesitate to praise the performance of Xiang Jicai:

"What a thousand enemies! It will be the courage of the three armies, with such a brave general, no wonder the Xiang family army can succeed, take Huainan lightly, and quickly go to the East China Sea! ”

But Zhang Liang shook his head again: "But if you want to destroy the tyrannical Qin, you can't rely on the military situation alone......

"You have to have the art of military power and strategy!"
