    In Sanchuan County, Qu Wan was planning a large-scale counterattack. Some time ago, he suffered a small loss. The southern frontier army of Qin State successfully deceived him. That bastard Zhou Yu was sold by the Qin people.  Don't forget to trick him before leaving.  Originally, Zhou Yu was framed and faced with desperation. The possibility of turning to the Chu State was one of the issues that Qu Wan considered. Later, things seemed to be developing in this direction. Zhou Yu's personal letter was delivered  In Qu Wan's hands, the Chu people had a full understanding of the enemy's generals. The handwriting and writing tone were all Zhou Yu's own. This move indeed convinced Qu Wan.  At that time, Zhou Yu seemed to be at the end of his rope. Qu Wan was very happy to formulate a plan to annihilate the Xuanyi Guards. Of course, the cooperation of Zhou Yu's southern frontier troops was indispensable.  The result made Qu Wan grit his teeth. The southern frontier army did cooperate, but it was not him, but the Xuanyi guards who cooperated. Fortunately, Qu Wan was cautious. Although he believed Zhou Yu, he still kept a backup plan.  In the second half of the war, the decline was restored, and they finally used their superiority in numbers to repel the two enemy armies' attacks, only losing one unit of more than 10,000 men.  After this battle, Qu Wan retreated to Sanchuan County, but the situation in the south became more subtle. After this battle, the southern frontier army and Xuanyi Guards regained their foothold, and still formed a pincer attack on him, one on the left and the other on the right.  Fang confronted each other.  It was later learned through the captured prisoners of the Qin army that Zhou Yu had left the southern frontier army of Qin, and the commander of this army was now Meng Tian's son Meng Yong.  This made Qu Wan's teeth itch with hatred.  The current situation in the south is not what Qu Wan wants. Now, he wants to completely establish the Chu army's advantage in the south of Qin through a major battle to ensure that Chu can fully bring the south of Qin under its rule.  The southern frontier army of Qin and the Xuanyi guards were not monolithic. There was such a big incident between the two that even Zhou Yu, who was highly supported by the southern frontier army, was forced to leave, saying that there was no grudge between them. Qu Wan was  I don¡¯t believe it, and the Xuanyi Guards are known as the most elite in the Qin State.  This time, I lost face greatly in front of the southern frontier army, and I must be feeling angry in my heart.  As long as there is a contradiction between the two, it can be exploited.  Qu Wan¡¯s strategy was to concentrate his forces and defeat the southern frontier army first.  The reason is very clear. The morale of the southern frontier army is unstable. Even though Meng Yong is Meng Tian's son and has great appeal among the southern frontier army, he is a junior brother who has never been on the battlefield.  In terms of command, there must be problems, even if there are experienced veterans like Wang Ming and Tan Wei in the southern frontier army.  The second reason is that if he attacks the Xuanyi Guards first, the southern frontier army is worried because they have offended Lu Chao and must be thinking of meritorious deeds. They will definitely go to the rescue and attack the southern frontier army first.  The Xuanyi Guards may not go to the rescue, or their rescue pace is not so timely, so he can take advantage of it.  Having defeated the southern frontier army, a group of Xuanyi guards, and Lu Zhihui, who has rarely been in battle, how long can he hold on?  Defeating them one by one is the best outcome. The worst outcome is for both sides to engage in a battle, but with their own strength multipled by theirs, even if Xuanyi Wei puts aside all achievements.  With timely reinforcements, I can take advantage of my military strength and engage in a decisive battle with them in an upright manner, and still win.  Destroyed these two armies.  The power Lu Chao can use is very limited. He has to control the domestic situation and defend Hangu Pass. In a short period of time, he has absolutely no way to take care of the south. This leaves time for the Chu State to integrate and digest the south.  .  Completely swallow up the southern part of Qin.  Full of confidence, Qu Wan launched an offensive against Qin's southern frontier army in early September. However, to his disappointment, when his attack just started, his intentions seemed to be seen through by the Qin people. Although the southern frontier army  Slowly but firmly moving towards Mengyin where the Xuanyi Guards were stationed, their intention to gather the strength of both armies for a battle with Qu Wan was clearly revealed.  Although this situation was far from Qu Wan's ideal, it was still expected. A major battle between the two main forces of Mengyin and Qin seemed inevitable.  Qu Wan has full confidence in the final victory of this battle between Qin and Chu. In the past few months, the Chu army has been invincible in the southern part of Qin. The army has established full confidence, with sufficient logistics and smooth food routes, and has laid down  Sanchuan County put the Chu army in a favorable position where they could advance, attack, and retreat and defend. On the other hand, the Qin army, although they were fighting on their own territory, had rifts between the two armies, each had its own agenda, and its logistics supplies were not as good as its own.  This guest army is suffering from endless wars and low morale in the homeland. Comparing the two situations, if you can't win this situation, then it will be in vain that you have led the troops for decades.  This strong self-confidence lasted until the moment when the southern frontier army of Qin State and the Xuanyi Guards reunited, and the war was about to break out.  After a few days of watching the weather, it seems that it is about to change again.?, gloomy dark clouds were pressing down, either because of the weather or because the war was about to break out. Everyone's heart seemed to be filled with excitement, and even the passionate war drums and horns seemed to have lost their former motivational effect.  On this day, Qu Wan received bad news, and it was not the first time.  The first thing to arrive was the news from Wuguan.  It was a logistics escort team that set out from Wuguan to replenish food and weapons for the army ahead. The food and weapons did not come, but two messengers arrived quickly. The news they brought shocked Qu Wan.  Troops from the First Division of the First Army of the Han Army's Young Guards Corps suddenly appeared outside Wuguan and launched a ferocious attack on Wuguan. Wuguan was at risk. After receiving the news, the leader of the escorting force immediately led the troops.  The three thousand escort troops under his command transferred to Wuguan for rescue, and the two of them came specifically to deliver messages. As for the grain and grass escorted by a large number of civilians, they were still heading towards Sanchuan County halfway, losing the protection of the troops.  Now we no longer care whether we can reach the enemy's land successfully or not.  Compared with losing this batch of logistical supplies, the gain or loss of Wuguan will be related to the lives of hundreds of thousands of troops.  But this is only the first one.  Before Qu Wan could digest the news, the second and third messengers arrived, coming from the Chu Kingdom. The news they brought made Qu Wan almost breathless.  The Han army launched a large-scale invasion of the Chu State. Pengcheng fell and guard Liu An was killed. The Han State's Second Front Army, with Cui Chengxiu's 18th Army as the vanguard, had penetrated deep into the Chu territory.  Jiangdong County was in danger. The inland river navy of the Han Army made a sudden attack and wiped out the Chu Navy in one fell swoop. Jiangdong County no longer had the power to control the Han Navy along the Yangtze River. Under the transportation of the navy, the large forces of the Han Army were attacked several times in Jiangdong County.  Landing at a location along the river, now except for Jiangdong County, most of Jiangdong County has been completely occupied.  At the Daba Mountain defense line, the Han Army's Second Front Army, led by Deputy Commander Bai Yucheng, was attacking day and night, and the defense line was almost collapsed.  Those who came from Wuguan were anxious, but those who came from China kept urging him to withdraw his troops immediately and return to the country. When these messengers set out, I am afraid that Yingdu did not know that Wuguan had also been attacked.  By this time, Qu Wan finally understood that Qin and Han had colluded, and Han's strategy was now clear, which was to destroy Chu in one fell swoop.  The troops attacking Chu State, Daba Mountain and Pengcheng were the main forces of the Second Front Army. Those attacking Wuguan were the Young Guards Corps. However, those attacking from the waterway of Jiangdong County were supposed to be Jinyang or Mengchi against Qin.  The main force of the Han Dynasty's First Front Army and Wang Jian's troops.  The Qin and Han colluded and created a series of illusions to deceive the Chu State, making the Chu people mistakenly believe that the Han people must take advantage of the civil strife in Qin to attack the Qin State in order to use this golden opportunity to destroy the Qin State in one fell swoop. It is based on this  Judgment, Chu State was determined to take a share in this drama of Han Dynasty destroying Qin State.  But when the curtain slowly opened, Chu, who originally thought he was a hunter and a fisherman, suddenly discovered that he had become the fish on the felt board, and was about to be slaughtered before his eyes.  The Han Dynasty played a very big game of chess.  "General, withdraw your troops quickly! If Wuguan is lost, we will be locked up in the southern part of Qin State." The generals under his command all looked pale. The importance of Wuguan to them is self-evident. If Wuguan is lost, they will  There will be no retreat, no supplies of food and grass, and no replenishment of weapons. On the territory of the enemy's country, destruction will only happen in the blink of an eye.  Taking a deep breath, Qu Wanqiang calmed down, which would be a brave soldier. If he showed a panicked look, he was afraid that his troops would be demoralized and would collapse without a fight.  "It is natural to retreat, but don't forget that we still have Qin's southern frontier army and Xuanyi Guards in front of us, with a total of nearly 70,000 or 80,000 troops. How can we leave if we want to? If we are not fully prepared,  Retreating hastily would be a disaster. I'm afraid we will be defeated by the Qin army before we reach Wuguan." Qu Wan looked at the generals and said slowly.  "This truth is understood by the generals present, but as long as they think of the consequences of losing Wuguan, everyone still feels uneasy.  "Even if we want to leave, we have to hit the Qin people hard before we can leave, so that they don't dare to pester us or chase us." Qu Wan looked at everyone, "Even if we were caught off guard, the terrain of Wuguan is dangerous, so we can't leave."  It is not so easy to win. We have enough men and horses left in Wuguan, and in order to attack suddenly, the Han army only has the first division of the 1st Army of the Young Guards at Wuguan, with the same strength.  Wu Guanxiangruo, I believe that Zhang Qian will definitely support us until we return. "So, in this battle now, we must not only fight it, but also fight it beautifully and decisively." The generals slowly understood after Qu Wan's words.  The ground is settledGod, yes, if we don't defeat the Qin army in front of us, there will be no talk of returning to rescue.  "General, please give the order. It won't be too late. We must gather all our strength and defeat the Qin army in front of us in one fell swoop." The generals stood up and asked for orders loudly.  Footsteps sounded outside the house, and an officer strode in and saluted Qu Wan: "General, the Qin army has an envoy visiting." Everyone was stunned. The two armies faced each other. At this time, the Qin people sent an envoy.  Could it be that he thought that the Chu army was really at the end of its rope and wanted to defeat the enemy without a fight?  (~^~)
