Emperor Sun made his fortune from scratch

Shi Ai soon received Liu Beichen's request for help, and soon after, he received a military order from Chengdu, ordering him to recover Jiangling as soon as possible.

If the opponent is only the Xiangyang Army, Shi Ai is not worried.

However, in Yiyang and Changsha and other places in the east, the Qi army had no less than 100,000 troops, and it only took three or five days to attack Wuling.

Within the territory, the cities are ready to move, and they need to leave troops to monitor them.

Now it is going to fight with the Xiangyang Army, which makes the Zhaowu Army a little nervous.

In view of the current situation, Han Zhiyuan bluntly said to Shi Ai that this battle must be resolved quickly, and the battle must be decided.

Shi Ai thought so and hurriedly arranged it.

Recently, although the Zhaowu Army has recruited troops aggressively, Shi Ai does not plan to bring new pawns.

Instead, 60,000 Zhaowu troops were transferred from all over the country, most of whom had participated in the Battle of Yiling, and could be called the elite of the army.

Coupled with the thousands of people around Liu Beichen, the number of Zhaowu troops was about the same as that of the Xiangyang army.

Thinking of the next battle, Shi Ai's heart was pounding, and an inexplicable excitement surged into his heart.

Originally, it was planned that as long as Li Zhao agreed, he would lead his troops to attack Xiangyang at the end of this year or early next year. Now that the other party has taken the initiative to kill, it's not all bad.

After the assembly of the army was completed, Shi Ai had a strong fighting spirit in his eyes, and ordered the soldiers of the whole army: "You must move forward bravely and raise my military might!"

After that, there were no extra words, and he took Han Zhiyuan, Song Jun, Chen Lu and others and marched north.

Not long after departure, Shi Ai received news that there was a rebellion in Wuling City. Fortunately, the Zhaowu army had already prepared and killed all the heroes who were in rebellion.

At the same time, it was also discovered that Qi army scouts appeared near Longyang County (Hanshou, Hunan).

It is estimated that it will not be long before the Qi army in Changsha and other places will discover the movements of the Zhaowu army.

Shi Ai's face was grim, and he ignored it, urging his subordinates to speed up the march.

......

After Yuan Heteng crossed the river, he took the 5,000 Xiangyang army as the vanguard and went south first.

In fact, if it weren't for the lack of warships and the lack of well-trained sailors. The best choice should be to attack Shishou, Yueyang and other places to the east.

Liu Beichen had only more than 1,000 people around him and was forced to retreat to Jin City.

Wei Rui, the defender of Jinshi, led more than 1,000 Zhaowu troops out of the city for thirty miles. When the Xiangyang army besieged Liu Beichen, he suddenly led his troops to kill. After a fierce battle with the Xiangyang army, the Zhaowu army retreated in an orderly manner and retreated into the city of Jinshi.

When Yuan Heteng learned that he failed to eliminate Liu Beichen, he was unhappy and led his army to Jinshi.

Wei Rui and Liu Beichen originally planned to defend the city, but they received a military order from Shi Ai and asked them to take the initiative to abandon Jin City.

Not long after the two led their troops away, the Xiangyang army entered the city.

The local Haoqiang was extremely excited and took the initiative to provide them with grain and grass.

Within ten days, the morale of the Xiangyang army was greatly boosted in the two cities, and the generals asked to continue to go south.

In line with the speed of the soldiers, Yuan Heteng divided his troops into two routes, and led 50,000 people to attack Liyang (Anxiang, Hunan). He also ordered Zhao Cheng, a general, to lead 20,000 soldiers to attack Linli County, and then the two armies joined forces under Wuling City.

Before Zhao Cheng set off, Yuan Heteng told him that if he encountered the main force of the Zhaowu army, if he was not sure of victory, he could retreat to Jinshi City.

20,000 troops held the city, enough to hold out until reinforcements arrived. At that time, the inside and the outside should be combined, and the Zhaowu army can be gathered and annihilated.

.............................................................................................................

Outside Linli City, Shi Ai looked at the news sent by the scouts, and his mood was much more relaxed.

The Xiangyang army is advancing very fast, and if nothing happens, it will be able to kill Linli the day after tomorrow.

This is exactly what Shi Ai wants, and he can't wait to fight the other party as soon as possible.

The king of Qin ordered half a moon to recover Jiangling, and three days had passed.

Although Shi Ai usually looks unhappy or sad, he also wants to save face.

In order to make the battle come faster, the Zhaowu army did not enter the city and headed towards the enemy.

As for the Xiangyang army that killed Liyang, Shi Ai was not too worried.

It is unlikely that there will be a war at Jianmen Pass, and Liu Haoyan has recently been transferred. With 8,000 soldiers, he was stationed in Liyang.

Although they were all generals of the Zhaowu Army, Shi Aiyin had been stationed in Liucheng and Qutang Pass for a long time, and was not too familiar with Liu Haoyan, but according to Liu Haoyan's past achievements, Liyang should not be easily captured.

In order to wash away the humiliation of the previous defeat, Liu Beichen asked Shi Ai for his life, hoping to serve as a striker.

Shi Ai gave him 5,000 soldiers and horses, and asked him and the partial general Wei Rui to set off immediately to meet the Xiangyang army.

Liu Beichen did not delay for a moment, urging his subordinates to rush all the way.

As both sides marched rapidly, the distance was getting closer.

At noon the next day, Zhao Cheng first discovered Liu Beichen's department and sent 2,000 Xiangyang troops to kill him.

Liu Beichen was eager to try, and was just about to lead his troops to meet the battle, Wei Rui said to him: "Since the Xiangyang Army sent its troops, it has captured two cities in a short period of time, and now it has only sent more than 1,000 people, perhaps because he despises our army in his heart. You can pretend to be defeated and lure the enemy deeper. Set up an ambush in a narrow place in the rear, and you will be defeated in one fell swoop.

Liu Beichen thought about it and agreed to this plan.

The Zhaowu army also sent more than 2,000 people, and after a battle, they pretended to be invincible and retreated to the rear.

Seeing this, Zhao Cheng smiled contemptuously and led his troops to chase and kill the Zhaowu army.

The Xiangyang army marched rapidly for an hour, only catching up with a small force of Zhaowu army, and the sergeants and soldiers were a little tired.

When chasing to a mountain path, a large number of arrows suddenly hit both sides of the road, and the Xiangyang army was caught off guard, and there were many dead and wounded.

Zhao Cheng suddenly woke up and realized that he was planning to retreat in a hurry, fearing that the hasty retreat would cause turmoil in the army's minds, and he wanted to pass this road as soon as possible.

However, the road ahead was blocked by boulders, giant trees and other objects, and the Xiangyang army was unable to advance for a while.

Zhao Cheng saw the hillside on the right, the slope is large, and it is not easy to climb. The slope on the left side is slightly smaller, allowing the soldiers to attack to the left.

The Xiangyang soldiers struggled to climb, and arrows, rolling logs and other objects attacked above, and the Xiangyang army was unable to go up for a long time, and the casualties in the army increased sharply.

Liu Beichen stood on a high place, his face was overjoyed: "General Shi is twenty miles behind, as long as it can be dragged until General Shi arrives, he will definitely be able to annihilate the Xiangyang army."

Wei Rui didn't quite approve of it, and said: "The fighter plane is fleeting, how can you waste time in vain." If the enemy army cannot attack for a long time, its morale will be weakened, and our army should take advantage of the situation to attack!"

As he expected, no matter how Zhao Cheng urged, the Xiangyang army was never able to rush up the high slope on the left, but instead lost thousands of soldiers.

Zhao Cheng was helpless and was forced to order the troops to withdraw and return the same way.

On the way back, he was frequently attacked by the Zhaowu army.

The Xiangyang army could not fight back, and withdrew in a hurry, and the formation was scattered.

Feeling that the time was almost up, Liu Beichen drew his sword and pointed at the enemy army, and roared angrily: "Kill!" As

soon as the words fell, Liu Beichen and Wei Rui each led more than 2,000 Zhaowu troops to rush towards the enemy army from a high place, cutting off their waists!

The Xiangyang army instantly fell into chaos, and the formation was not connected from end to end. No matter how Zhao Cheng screamed, he still couldn't effectively command his subordinates.

The Zhaowu army attacked fiercely, the soldiers wielded their swords fiercely, and the Xiangyang army had no intention of fighting.

Liu Beichen remembered the embarrassment of the past few days, and his heart was full of monstrous hatred! He led the Zhaowu army back and forth to kill him, and his momentum was unstoppable!

This long and narrow road was sprinkled with the blood of the Xiangyang army, as well as countless broken arms and stumps.

Zhao Cheng looked at the tragic scene in front of him, his face pale. I was afraid in my heart, after losing so many soldiers and horses, Yuan Heteng would definitely not bypass him.

Knowing that the situation was irreversible, Zhao Cheng took his own soldiers and wanted to return to Jinshi. On the way, he was stopped by Wei Rui, and when he saw that he couldn't escape, he surrendered to the Zhaowu army.

Liu Beichen has gone crazy, and despite Wei Rui's dissuasion, he hacked Zhao Cheng to death with a knife!
