Text Chapter 210 The State of Qi also comes to intervene (second update)

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Watching tens of thousands of troops approaching from a distance, Liu Bang, standing on a certain city wall, was not as calm and calm as he appeared on the surface.

    There are 50,000 troops, of which 30,000 belong to Zhao's army and 20,000 belong to Wei.  Overall, among the 50,000 people, Wei's army appears to be more powerful, while Zhao's 30,000 are somewhat weaker.

    But no matter what, they are more powerful than the Korean army in Handan City.  Of course, there is a huge gap compared to the Qin Dynasty Tiger Guards led by Zhang Han.

    Generally speaking, these 50,000 people are not weak in combat effectiveness. Even if they encounter the Qin army, they can still fight a dozen head-on.

    "Zizi, do you think these people will take action?"

    Liu Bang¡¯s troops are now stationed in a plain open space south of Handan City, just in case.  However, in comparison, facing an army of 50,000, his 8,000 men and horses were completely insufficient.  On the plains, it takes almost no time for eight thousand people to face tens of thousands. Unless the combat effectiveness of the two sides is greatly different, there is almost no suspense about the outcome of this confrontation.

    "The probability is about 30%. Of course, the Nu family still tends not to take action. Even if the people of the Zhao State want to take action, the people of the Wei State will consider it. After all, taking Handan City and attacking South Korea may not be possible for the Zhao State.  It is profitable, but for the Wei State, the advantages may not outweigh the disadvantages. Presumably, as long as the King of Wei and the generals of the Wei army are not fools, they will consider it."

    Liu Bang nodded, and Liu Bang thought so too.

    During their conversation, tens of thousands of troops also arrived not far from Handan City, but it was obvious.  Handan City will not allow tens of thousands of people to enter the city. King Han is not that stupid.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Hundreds of riders were seen breaking away from it and running towards Handan City.

    "Look, that should be the important figure in the Wei-Zhao coalition this time."

    Seeing this, Liu Bang also breathed a sigh of relief. Although it was still not possible to judge that the Wei and Zhao coalition forces would really not take action, this change occurred at this moment.  It should be obvious that even if they have the heart, they may not necessarily have the courage.

    "Yes. It seems that Brother Liu does not need to be forced to help King Han this time."

    Zhang Liang also laughed softly on the side, after knowing that the Wei and Zhao coalition forces were coming.  No matter how calm King Han was, he was still a little scared.  He doesn't have many troops at the moment. Once a siege breaks out, the results can be imagined.

    At this time, the King of Han directly approached Liu Bang and asked Liu Bang to help him if a battle broke out.

    Originally Liu Bang was unwilling to agree, but the King of Han used the conditions of "30,000 sets of infantry equipment, 1,000 fine horses and a considerable number of arrows" to pull Liu Bang into a ship.

    For Sishui County.  Many people now use the armor weapons left over from the Qin Dynasty local army in Sishui County. Most of them are inferior goods that have been eliminated and are at least more than ten or even twenty years old.  This seriously affected the combat effectiveness of the German soldiers in Surabaya County.

    Thirty thousand sets of weapons and armor plus some arrows are very attractive.  Although the quality of these things is definitely not as sophisticated as that of the Central Army of the Qin Dynasty.  But it is definitely much better than what Liu Bang is using now.

    But what moved Liu Bang the most was the 1,000 fine war horses!

    You must know that in the entire world, except for the Qin Dynasty, which has a certain number of cavalry, most of the other countries are based on infantry. Even Chu, the strongest military force today, has more than 100,000 troops.  But the number of cavalry is definitely less than 20,000!  But even these 20,000 people, before encountering the main force of the Qin army, swept across the entire Jiangdong and South!

    Cavalry!  The most terrifying unit in ancient wars!  Amazing fighting power!  But the consumption and burden are equally staggering!

    The most rare thing among them is the number of war horses. There are not many places to breed horses in the Central Plains, unlike the northern grasslands.  Therefore, in the Central Plains region, having a cavalry is a symbol of strength!

    Although the number of 1,000 war horses is not large, once used well, Liu Bang's overall strength in Surabaya County can be greatly improved.  In addition, once the weapons and equipment are brand new, Liu Bang is confident that the combat effectiveness of his army will increase by at least 50% to 70%!

    So after Liu Bang hesitated for a moment, he nodded in agreement.  But the most important thing is Zhang Liang's speculation that the Wei and Zhao coalition forces did not dare to take action!  Otherwise, he is not a fool. Even if the things are good, they still need a life to enjoy them.

    About five hundred people from Wei and Zhao entered the city.  There were more than twenty people among them, all important figures in the alliance between Wei and Zhao.  Among them are the chief generals of Wei and Zhao.

    The King of Han gave the highest level of treatment to the people of the two countries and personally received them in the palace.  This is not only a kind of respectHeaviness is a kind of prudence and solemnity!

    Facing the pressure of 50,000 troops outside the city, King Han was very smart at this moment and did not put on a high profile.

    "Xu Jia of the State of Wei."

    "Zhao Guoyuanli."

    "Meet the King of Han!"

    Among the three kingdoms of Wei, Zhao and Han, Wei has always been the most powerful, and it is also the case now. When seeing the King of Han, the general of Wei, Xu Jia, did not show much respect. He just bowed his hand as a greeting.  Although the Zhao State is not as powerful as the Wei State, they have been in conflict with King Han for a long time. General Yuan Li just snorted and stopped talking.

    "You two have led your troops here this time. I would like to thank the kings of Wei and Zhao for their generosity."

    Since he escaped from the control of the ghost clan, King Han has become more tactful than before.  He was not making trouble at this moment, but showed a smile, and looked quite calm and confident in his understatement.

    Seeing King Han¡¯s attitude, Xu Jia and Yuan Li both changed their minds.  After entering the city, they also discovered the dilapidated walls and some tragic areas of Handan City.  More importantly, they also discovered that the Korean army in Handan City was in a slump at the moment. There were countless wounded soldiers and not many soldiers to fight.

    According to their thinking, King Han is not a fool, and it is impossible not to know the purpose of their visit this time.  But with such a calm and confident expression and attitude, Xu Jia glanced slightly at a young man standing somewhere in the palace at this moment.

    "Let me introduce you, this is General Liu from the Chu State. This time Handan City was able to survive the disaster and forced Zhang Han of the Qin Dynasty to retreat. General Liu took the greatest credit!"

    As if he noticed Xu Jia¡¯s gaze, King Han immediately introduced him.  A strange smile flashed across his face.

    "General Xu, General Yuan."

    Liu Bang nodded slightly to the two of them. Although he had never heard the names of these two people, seeing that they could bring so many troops here, their status in their respective countries should not be low, otherwise they would not  The kings of the two countries would not be able to send them out with confidence.

    Of course, Liu Bang¡¯s attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, just right.

    "General Liu? Chu State?" Xu Jia and Yuan Li both had a flash of doubt, obviously they had never heard of Liu Bang.

    "Liu Bang of Sishui County? When did you become a general of the Chu State?" Suddenly a flash of realization flashed in Xu Jia's eyes, and then his voice rose slightly.

    "Liu Bang?" When Yuan Li heard this, his expression changed slightly.

    Although the world is in chaos now, it has generally formed a mutually stable situation.  Although the Qin Dynasty lost nearly half of its land, it was still the strongest.  The second is to restore the six-party power of the Six Nations during the Warring States Period.  The rest are some insurrectionary armies that have gained ground and can only rely on the six-party forces.

    Sishui County is somewhat famous among them, at least in terms of strength, but few rebels can occupy a county!  You must know that among the six kingdoms, the Zhao Kingdom, which seems to be the weakest now, only has the scope of one county.  Therefore, Liu Bang's reputation was far louder than he expected.

    "Before next year, King Huai of Mengchu was appointed, and now he is the general of the Chu State in the Western Expedition."

    ????????????? If a small Liu Bang does not make the two of them pay much attention to it, but once a Chu State is involved, it will be different.

    Not to mention the weak Zhao State, even the powerful Wei State cannot be compared with the Chu State.  Not only in terms of military strength, but also in other aspects.  The most important one is that there is a Xiang family in Chu State!  There is a Xiang Yu in the Xiang family!

    Regarding Liu Bang, the eyes of the two people immediately changed. They could ignore the King of Han, but they could not treat Liu Bang.  At the same time, each of them was feeling sad in their hearts, as some of the problems implied by Liu Bang's appearance here.

    Does Chu State want to intervene?  Their hearts sank at the same time.

    Not talking about Xu Jia, King Han noticed the rich changes in Yuan Li's expression.  He couldn't help but sneer slightly in his heart. The State of Zhao and him had been grudges for a long time. Although the relationship between the State of Wei and the State of Wei was fine on the surface, who didn't know that the King of Wei was very ambitious?  Hiding evil intentions?  This time we jointly send troops with Zhao State, the plan must be quite big!

    If he hadn¡¯t been crippled by Zhang Han and his strength was greatly reduced, he wouldn¡¯t have been able to come out to meet these two little generals in person!

    "Although I don't know Liu Bang's status in Chu State, I think he doesn't even know it, and these two people must not understand it either. As long as they have some scruples, they won't dare to attack Handan City at will!"

    With these thoughts flashing through his mind, King Han¡¯s smile became even wider.

    Looking at the smiling face of King Han over there, Liu Bang secretly cursed an old fox.  But after all, eating people is short-tongued and soft-handed. King Han gave him a lot of benefits this time, and anyway, he used the reputation of Chu State.??He Liu Bang was happy to give him a favor.

    Xu Jia and Yuan Li, who were not sure what was going on, if they still had any desire to take action before, now they have dropped a lot.  Not talking about the Wei State represented by Xu Jia, even the Zhao State where Yuan Li is located, once the Chu State intervenes in this matter, Yuan Li is not a brainless muscular man, and he also knows that it is inappropriate to take action at this time.

    Just when King Han thought that the crisis was over and he and Liu Bang came up with an empty city plan, things suddenly changed again.

    "Report!!! To the west outside the city, the Qi** team was found!" (To be continued)
