Chapter 291: The Eyes of the Rat
"Xiang Gong, my son's co-lieutenant must have received the letter, waiting for my son's co-lieutenant to successfully attack Nanjun, and at that time, Lu Zhe, who is trapped in the guild chapter, will definitely pay the price for his actions!" Gong Ao seemed very confident, his son had always been obedient, and if the Gong family had encountered such a good opportunity since its decline, he was confident enough to believe that Gong Lieutenant knew how to seize it.
Xiang Liang smiled, he was very much looking forward to what kind of expression Lu Zhe would have when he encountered a fire in the backyard.
First of all, Fan Zeng died in the hands of Lu Zhe, and at that time, Xiang Liang hid his hatred in order to win over Lu Zhe to get Nanjun and Qianzhong County, but Lu Zhe didn't even refuse to ignore it, he just didn't know what to do.
The news that Huizhang County was smashed has been confirmed, and then there is the hatred of Fan Zeng's death at the hands of Lu Zhe, and Xiang Liang's hatred for Lu Zhe has reached its peak, and it can be said that as long as there is an opportunity to put Lu Zhe to death, Xiang Liang will not let it go at all.
"It's ridiculous that Lu Thief reuses it without knowing his identity, and he deserves such an end." Next to the item it said happily.
Xiang Liang smiled reservedly, these juniors of the Xiang clan are all good, this is the foundation of the Xiang clan's continued prosperity, which makes him feel very gratified, it is a pity that Xiang Yu, his most valued nephew, has many bright spots and shortcomings, and he has educated Xiang Yu a few times and has not taken it seriously, which is very distressing.
Xiang Lai had a big question: "Lu Thief has risen for less than a year, should he know that there is no internal stability?" He dared to lead the army deep into Huizhang County, with the intention of cutting off the rear road of our army, and wanted to form a flanking attack with the lost dog Huan Chu and others. However, if you want to form a flanking attack, why do you stay still, you should attack behind our army from the rear immediately after returning to the rear? ”
Xiang Qi sneered: "I heard that the Lu thief has been plundering since he entered Huizhang County. These untouchables who started from the end of the world are untouchables, how can they have a long-term vision? It is not surprising that all that is important in the first opportunity is the wealth, and the delay of the fighter plane because of this is not surprising. ”
Many people's eyes flickered, is Lu Zhe really a person without a long-term vision? How could such a person have such a huge strength in less than a year?
But what Xiang said seems to be a bit ...... Reason? Otherwise, you want to flank. The army has gone back to the rear, and several times his own army has invested a relatively large proportion to attack Huan Chu, why didn't Lu Zhe come to attack the back?
Gong Ao laughed "hehehe", and the more he laughed, the louder he became: "It's not a nobleman, there is no clan support, Lu Zhe can't support it alone, I heard that he is only twenty years old this year?" There are no talents among those thieves, and it is natural that such a force will be blind. ”
From the language, Gong Ao felt that civilians would not have much talent, and those who made a difference should have clans behind them. And the reason why a clan is a clan is either a nobility itself or its ancestors were nobles. Is he a pure "aristocracy"?
The officials of the Chu State are all from noble families, and many times people feel that it is inappropriate, but from the bottom of their hearts, they agree with the words that are in line with their identity, and everyone who hears Gongao's judgment laughs for a while.
Xiang Liang was not so superficial, he glanced at Gong Ao strangely, and felt that those words were okay, but the children of his own family actually agreed, it was really ......
"Hmm!" Xiang Liang interrupted a group of people about the natural goodness of the nobles, and he squinted his eyes: "Now Huan Chu is completely defeated. The 50,000 reinforcements sent by Lu Zhe also left only 20,000 remnants of the turtle shrinking Fanyang......"
They chased the defeated army of Jibu and Huan Chu all the way to the vicinity of Fanyang, and it was not clear that Lu Zhe led the army to continue to attack Qianxian. Lu Zhe's entry into Huizhang County was plundering and sabotaging everywhere, and they thought that Lu Zhe had achieved a real flanking attack regardless of the big strategic purpose. Judging from all these actions, there is nothing wrong with being a rat-eyed mouse. But then again, Lu Zhe's use of troops does not have a fixed routine, so people can't understand it, but it should be?
"The army under the command of the Lu thief is at its peak, and our army is only defeating one of the reinforcements, and the Lu thief has long had the evil intention of not letting Da Chu get Lujiang County. Therefore, it will not just send the thief named Jibu to support the army, and there will be a large army to come. Xiang Liang was very calm, "I'm thinking about it." Everybody! As early as half a year ago, Lu Thief had planted the seeds of Huan Chu and Da Chu's separation, and at this moment, our army's attack on Lujiang County is in bloom, and the fruit has not really grown, so we can't be careless. ”
Hearing Xiang Liang speak seriously, most of the people present converged, only Xiang It and Gong Ao looked disapproving.
Although Xiang Yu was also present, his mind was not in the discussion at all. His mind was full of what had happened on the battlefield, and he recalled Lu Zhejun's deployment over and over again.
Lu Zhejun's troops were not qualified in military formations, but they had a strong sense of combat, so they also filled up the stiffness of the battle formations. And Xiang Yu's deepest impression of Lu Zhejun was the tenacity during the battle, as well as the terrifying advantage of the arrow array.
When the Chu army was fighting with Lu Zhejun, Xiang Yu saw Lu Zhejun's soldiers fighting to the end more than once, although they were afraid, and the soldiers were afraid and did not retreat, indicating that there must be something that made the soldiers more afraid or worried than death. He couldn't guess what made Lu Zhejun's soldiers prefer to die in battle rather than flee without an order, and the team after team of soldiers who were besieged and fought to the death were very emotional, and he also admired such soldiers very much.
Needless to say, the casualties of the Chu army and Lu Zhe's army during the battle were at least five-tenths of the casualties that fell in the arrow array, and even the elite of the elite, the subordinate soldiers that the Xiang clan spent a lot of money to build, more than 2,000 people were lost in the terrifying arrow array.
The total number of 200,000 Chu troops entered Lujiang County, and now the number of soldiers who still have combat strength is only 110,000, and the result of the battle is to eliminate 70,000 people in Huan Chu, and the 50,000 reinforcements sent by Lu Zhe have also eliminated 30,000.
The loss of 90,000 won the result of destroying 100,000 enemy troops, and the Chu army was literally victorious, and from the point of view that they were now killing under Fanyang City, they did indeed gain an advantage. However, they were 150,000 to 70,000 at the beginning, and then 130,000 to 60,000, they have always been outnumbered by the crowd, and they are the side with the advantage of troops, such a victory is not something to be proud of, at least Xiang Yu can't see anything to be happy about.
Now, it took them half a month to stand under Fanyang City, the capital of Lujiang County, the 110,000 army has been exhausted after a long battle, and the military rations are only less than two months' left, Xiang Liang came to Fanyang City and did not launch an attack, and the troops sent out to collect grain did not bring back much, it is obvious that this final victory is not stable.
"Uncle." For the first time in a long time, Xiang Yu spoke: "How many enemy prisoners are there in our army?" ”
Xiang Liang glanced at his nephew with a calm face, and although he was curious why he asked, he still replied: "About more than 30,000 people." ”
"Thirty thousand?" Xiang Yu asked again: "Then how many subordinates belong to Lu Zhe?" ”
Xiang Liang couldn't answer at this time, so he called Chen Ping, a person who was in charge of clerical affairs.
After Chen Ping came in, he kept his head down and looked very humble, and immediately replied after hearing the question: "There are thirty-one thousand two hundred and forty prisoners, and there are two thousand and six soldiers of Lu Zhejun; Eighteen thousand prisoners were wounded. ”
"Lu Zhejun only has two thousand and six?" Xiang Yu just subconsciously repeated, and finally nodded: "There aren't many people who surrender intact, right?" ”
Chen Ping looked up at Xiang Jiahu'er, who was immature but gave people a sense of sharpness and heavy pupils, and bowed: "What the noble man said is right, less than three hundred of the two thousand and six people are uninjured or slightly injured. ”
"Sure enough!" Xiang Yu's voice suddenly became a little loud: "Respecting the enemy is respecting yourself." He looked around at the person whose language was filthy just now, "Lu Zhe's soldiers on the battlefield are not as unbearable as you say. ”
"Yu'er," Xiang Liang saw that many people showed embarrassed expressions, especially Gong Ao's face was embarrassed, he eased the atmosphere, and looked at Xiang Yu who was finally willing to use his brain with an expectant look: "What do you have to say, let the uncles have the right to do business." ”
"There's nothing to say, I just think that Lu Zhe's subordinates can behave so well on the battlefield, and Lu Zhe and his people will not be a useless person." Xiang Yu's words did hurt the face of many people, but he didn't care about the faces of those people at all, and continued: "Uncle, you must not underestimate Lu Zhe. ”
Xiang Liang was happy, Xiang Yu's words were embarrassing to many people, but it was too rare to be able to say those words, but he didn't praise but ordered Xiang Yu to pour tea for everyone.
The nephew went to ask Lu Zhejun about the prisoners of war, "Xiang Yu didn't feel that he was at fault, why did he pour tea for those people who could only use words?" After he finished speaking, he ignored the reactions of the crowd and said to leave.
"My Yu'er ...... because of his father's early death," Xiang Liang said with a sad expression, "Please have a lot of Haihan." Saying that, he bowed around with the respect of the above-ranking person, and then said: "It is indeed no accident that Lu Thief has today's achievements, and I have many followers, and Lu Thief will naturally have it." At present, our army has broken through the enemy's flanking attack, and the army lacks siege equipment, and it is not suitable for siege ......"
Everyone also understands that it's time to take a break, but it is a difficult problem to choose where to rest, and it is also a question whether Lu Zhe, who has always been on his back, will let them rest.
Xiang Liang suddenly saw that Chen Ping was still in the tent, frowned and waved his hand: "Don't retreat yet!" ”
There was no order just now, Chen Ping didn't know who else would ask before he stayed, and now he was frowning and waving his hand, he didn't dare to show a strange expression, and bowed respectfully and went out.
Chen Ping, who had left the military tent, was just about to show the humiliation hidden in his heart on his face, but his shoulder was abruptly patted, making the half-exposed expression freeze on his face.
Chen Ping, who had changed his smiling expression again, turned around and looked, and Xiang Yu stared expressionlessly.
"Lead the way!" Xiang Yu said.
"Lead the way?" Chen Ping kept smiling, and saluted many people strangely: "General, please." ”
"Huh?" Xiang Yu was surprised, he didn't say where he was going, but this thin scribe was able to comprehend? couldn't help but smile, but soon became expressionless again: "You, good! (To be continued......)
