Chapter 450: Bi Shu is here

Chapter 450 Bi Shu is here

It was dawning, and the entire Han army camp was already full of fire. (--net.)

At the opening of the gate, teams of heavy armored soldiers, light soldiers, archers and cavalry rushed out, and then, under the guidance of their respective generals, they began to chaoticly organize the team.

Following the black armored soldiers, there were towering catapults.

Thousands of Han military soldiers exposed their chests and abdomen, struggling to pull the cables with the sound of uniform horns. The bulky catapult slowly drove out of the gate with the rattle of the axle.

Liu Bang hurried out of the tent surrounded by Zhang Liang, Chen Ping and others. Just as he was about to turn over the horse, Liu Bian suddenly came and bowed to Liu Bang and said, "King, the scouts are rewarded. A huge Chu navy is flowing downstream from the Baishui River!" The Chu navy's movement finally alarmed the scout of the Han army.

"Another Chu navy?" Liu Bang said in shock, "From the upper reaches of the Baishui River?!"

Zhou Bo, Lu Tai and Xiahou were also looking at each other. Jiang Ji's navy was blocked by Zhou Guanfu under the carp beach. So could the one who was flowing down from the upper reaches of the Baishui River be the main force of the Chu navy in Zhonglimei?

However, wasn’t Zhonglimei’s main force fighting against the Qihuai coalition forces on the Huainan battlefield?

Could it be that the main force of Zhonglimei's naval army has arrived in Nanyang? Then the speed is too fast. Moreover, Baishui is not connected to Huai River, how did this Chu naval army come? It would take several months to circumnavigate from the Wujiang River? Could it be that so many warships flew from the sky, or actually drove from land?

Zhang Liang's expression was also shocked and suspicious, but Chen Ping was obviously a little confused.

Liu Bang was stunned for a moment, then turned around and asked Zhang Liang, "Zifang, do you still have to go to fight?"

The scene of Chu's crossbow ship being powerful the day before yesterday is still lingering in Liu Bang's mind. He is really afraid of Chu's crossbow ship. As soon as this thing is powerful, people will die one by one! Now another Chu's water army is going down the Baishui River and can reach the Mianshui battlefield within two hours at most. In this case, isn't the Han army going to fight again just to seek abuse by itself?

Zhang Liang was silent. With the Chu navy being watched by his side, the Han army did not have much chance of winning, and it seemed that it was not suitable to go to war.--net.

Seeing that Zhang Liang was silent, Liu Bang said to Lu Tai: "I will stop fighting today. I will order the entire army to scatter the camp."

"Here!" Lu Tai bowed, turned around and conveyed Liu Bang's edict. Soon, the entire team of Han soldiers outside the camp became turbulent, and while cursing and complaining, he returned to the camp.

Liu Bang returned to the tent surrounded by Zhang Liang, Chen Ping, Zhou Bo, Xiahou Ying.

As soon as he entered the tent, Zhang Liang's eyes fell on the map hanging on the screen in the north corner, and a flash flashed through his mind and said, "King, I understand that the main force of the Chu naval army from Zhonglimei, but the Jiangji naval army who was blocked by General Cavalry at Liyu Beach and could not go north!"

"Jiang Ji Navy?" Liu Bang frowned, "How is this possible?"

"Nothing is impossible." Zhang Liang strode to the map, pointed to the two rivers on the map, and said, "Your Majesty, this is Baishui, this is Zao Water. The two waters are only twenty miles apart near each other, and the downstream of the Zao Water flows into the Mian River near Ruo County. Therefore, the Jiangji naval army can go up the Zao Water first, and then sail on land for twenty miles to enter Baishui!"

"Boat on land?" Liu Bang opened his mouth wide and said in surprise, "Zifang, do you mean that the warships of the Chu Navy were all dragged from the land? How much effort does it take?"

"It is naturally difficult to sail on land, but the Chu navy is probably in vain."

Liu Bang suddenly understood Zhang Liang's strings and said, "Are you talking about... attacking Ruo County again?"

"Yes, condemn the cavalry to attack Ruo County again!" Zhang Liang smiled slightly, reached out and patted the icon of Ruo County on the map, and said, "It is necessary to rescue the enemy. This is an open plot. How did the Chu naval army dragged over? Let them drag it back. Haha, if you go through this a few times, the Chu naval army should be exhausted just by being tired. (--net.)"

"Good idea!" Zhou Bo said, "In this way, just dragging the Chu navy down."

"Good, just do it!" Liu Bang slapped his thigh suddenly and ordered Lu Tai who had just entered the tent, "General, you will lead the main force of the cavalry to go south immediately, and join with the 20,000 Yuezhi cavalry that won it to attack Ruo County together!"

"Here!" Lu Tai replied with a loud bang, turned around and left the tent.

Xiang Zhuang took Xiang Tuo, Bailixian and other important civil and military officials on board the commanding van early.

However, what is confusing is that the Han army on the opposite side has not been attacking for a long time. Half an hour later, the Han army gathered on the distant river beach was unexpectedly disbanded. The king and minister of Chu immediately looked at each other. Where is Liu Bang singing? Why did he scatter the troops back to the camp and stop attacking?

Bailixian reacted quickly and said, "King, it is probably the scout of the Han army who discovered General Jiang Ji's navy."

Xiang Zhuang's eyes suddenly shone and said, "Ziliang, do you think Liu Bang will send cavalry to attack Ruo County again?"

Bailixian shook his feather fan and smiled and said, "The Han army rushed to Ruo County to attack Ruo County, which is necessary to rescue me. This is an open plot. If nothing unexpected happens, Liu Bang will definitely do this."

Before he finished speaking, a faint sound of horse hooves suddenly came from the front.

When the king and minister of Chu quickly put on the tent and looked forward, they saw that the black cavalry had already surged out of the Han army camp and headed towards the southeast direction in a mighty manner.

"Haha!" Xiang Zhuang beat the clan hard and turned around and said to Bailixian, "Ziliang, even though Zhang Liang and Chen Pingzhi were extremely tricky, this time he fell into your plan!"

Bailixian's land boating plan offered by him is not just as simple as bringing Jiang Ji's navy. In fact, it is a chain plan. If Liu Bang condemns the cavalry to attack Ruo County again, it will fall into Bailixian's plan.

Baili Xian shook his hand and said, "My wisdom is definitely not as smart as Zhang Liang. However, no matter how wise Zhang Liang is, he is not considered to be the general who will soon arrive at the Mianshui battlefield. If it weren't for this, the Han cavalry attacked Ruo County again, General Jiang Ji's navy would probably be exhausted from running between Baishui and Zaohui."

"Hey." Xiang Zhuang waved his hand and said solemnly, "From ancient times to the present, there have been only heroes who have been determined by success or failure. This time Zhang Liang and Chen Ping fell into your plan, and they are not as good as you, Hum!" After saying this, Xiang Zhuang turned around and looked at the Han army camp in the distance, and said viciously, "It's our turn to take the initiative to attack just by just waiting for the sword to arrive."

As soon as he finished speaking, Hu Yan suddenly hurriedly climbed up to the nest car and reported: "King, General is here!"

"Oh, Bishu is here?!" Xiang Zhuang suddenly looked very excited and said to Xiang He, Baili Xian and other important civil and military officials, "Let's go and welcome the general of our Great Chu State!"

#############

On the wasteland on the east bank of Mianshui, Bi Shu hurried westward under the escort of the three hundred elite cavalry.

Suddenly, a fast horse galloped back from the front, and before he could approach, he shouted excitedly on the horse's back: "General, the king is here to greet you in person..."

Bi Shu's heart was slightly shocked. When he looked up quickly, he saw that the black Chu cavalry had appeared on the horizon ahead. The golden flag that was fluttering in the wind was the king's flag? At this moment, Bi Shu couldn't help but sigh that it would be better to have such a king than Bi Shu's talent.

In less than a moment, the cavalry in front rushed to the front.

Bi Shu quickly turned over and got off the horse, straightened his clothes and then quickly met him.

There were still dozens of steps away from Bishu, so Xiang Zhuang quickly turned over and dismounted. Xiang Tuo, Bailixian and other important civil and military officials who were accompanying him also turned over and dismounted and strode towards Bishu.

"Master!"

"Learn the sword!"

"General!"

When they met, Bi Shu was about to bow, but Xiang Zhuang held both hands.

Xiang Tuo, Baili Xian, Wu She and other important civil and military officials behind Xiang Zhuang also stepped forward to meet Bishu.

Xiang Zhuang held Bi Shu's hands and shook them hard, and said with emotion: "Learn from the sword, I just finished the battle of Sishui, and I let you come to Mianshui without stopping. Thank you so much for your hard work."

"Not working hard." Bi Shu smiled, "This is my duty."

Xiang Zhuang nodded slightly, suddenly turned around and shouted, "Come on, bring my black horse over."

Hu Yan agreed and immediately led the black horse from Xiangzhuang. The black horse is now old and can no longer carry Xiangzhuang to charge into battle like before, but riding is fine.

As everyone's eyes watched, Xiang Zhuang took the reins of the horse from Huyan's hand, and then said to Bi Shu: "Learn the sword and get on the horse."

"King, this is not possible." Seeing Xiang Zhuang invite him to ride a black horse, he quickly shook his hands with his hands when he learned the sword. You must know that the black horse is not an ordinary war horse. The black horse served Xiang Yu one after another, and Xiang Zhuang served two kings of Chu. Such glory is unique. It has become a symbol, and how can others ride it?

Xiang Tuo and other important civil and military officials were shocked and envious, and the king actually wanted to hold the horse and hold the whip for Bi Shu?!

Xiang Zhuang patted the saddle of the black horse again and said without any doubt: "Learn the sword and get on the horse!"

Seeing Xiang Zhuang's expression firm, Bi Shu knew that he could not refuse this time, so he had to tremble and climbed onto the back of the black horse's horse in the stirrup. The black horse seemed a little uncomfortable with Bi Shu, the "stranger", but Xiang Zhuang just gently rubbed its horse's head, and the black horse quickly calmed down.

Under the burning gaze of a group of civil and military officials and thousands of cavalry soldiers, Xiang Zhuang actually held the horse and whipped it, and became a groom for Bi Shu. Then he led Bi Shu all the way to the ferry, boarded a large boat to cross the Mianshui and returned to the Hewan Camp. Once back to the camp, Xiang Zhuang personally handed over the military talisman seals of more than 400,000 troops to Bi Shu.
