"What Qin Jun wants to see most now is probably that we took the initiative to fight out.
The Qin army has already laid a net outside the city. If we fight out now, wouldn't we be asking for our own destruction? "
Zhang Han swept his eyes over the generals of the Qi army and shouted.
The generals were speechless.
Zhang Han continued: "Don't worry, the soldiers, the king will definitely find a way outside.
Before the king left the city, he had made an agreement with this king. Once the time is right, the king will still send us a signal outside the city.
At that time, we will go out of the city to break through the siege, and cooperate with the king inside and outside, and we may be able to defeat the Qin army. "
Zhang Han did not lie to these Qi army officers and soldiers. When Han Xin left Handan City, he had indeed agreed with Zhang Han in this way.
Moreover, during this period of time, Han Xin has been outside, and he has worked hard on how to rescue the [-] Qi troops in Handan City.
However, Qin Jun also has a top strategist like Guo Jia, who has cracked his strategy many times.
At this time, Xu Feng's more than 12 Qin army still has a huge advantage when facing Han Xin's more than 6 Qi army and Xiang Yu's more than [-] Chu army.
Just when Zhang Han was in Handan City and was about to lose his hold, Han Xin was also very anxious.
"Your Majesty, if you count the time, it has been more than two months since the Qin Army besieged Handan City.
King Zhang's food in the city may have been exhausted.
Our scouts reported that last night there were shouts of killing near the wheat fields several miles away from the east, west, and north gates of Handan.
I am afraid that King Zhang wanted to send troops out of the city at night to harvest some wheat as food, but he was ambushed by the Qin army.
We can't wait any longer. If we wait any longer, King Zhang and his [-] soldiers will be finished in Handan City. "
In Han Xin's tent in the Qi army camp, a group of Qi army generals were called by Han Xin for a meeting, and a Qi general immediately stood up and reported.
"Yes, Your Majesty, we can't wait any longer."
"Hey! There are masters in the Qin army, and they are indeed much more difficult to deal with than Xiang Yu."
Han Xin also sighed.
This time, he felt that he had really met an opponent. There were masters in the Qin army, and they were deployed properly.
After Huang Zhong left, Xu Feng asked Zhao Yun to replace Huang Zhong and cooperate with Lu Bu to block Xiang Yu's Chu army on Guan Yepo's side.
He also asked Ma Chao to lead the cavalry of the Qin army to contain Han Xin's men and horses, and asked Han Xin to attack several times, but all failed.
This is not to blame for Han Xin's lack of ability. In fact, from the very beginning, Xu Feng led the Qin army to attack suddenly, allowing the Qin army to take the lead and seize the opportunity on the battlefield.
Taking the lead is very important for the two armies fighting on the battlefield.
In addition, the elite Qin army can often win more with less, and there are powerful generals like Guo Jia, Lu Bu, Zhao Yun and Ma Chao, who are leading the army.
On Han Xin's side, apart from himself being a 'king', most of the rest of his teammates are silver and gold players, so it's normal for them to lose against Qin Jun.
In this way, the time was dragged to June, to the time when Qi Jun couldn't drag it any longer.
"It's time to make a decision.
Originally, the king was still counting on Liu Bang, the leader of the army to arrive, and the predicament in Handan would naturally be resolved.
But what I never expected was that Liu Bang's 10,000+ army was blocked by a mere [-] Qin army to the north of Juyeze, making it difficult to advance.
Liu Bang, I really disappointed the king. "
Han Xin said angrily at this time.
Xu Da, who led 10,000 Qin troops to the south, deployed defenses in the area from Zhangxian to Dong'e, north of Juyeze, and blocked the [-]+ army led by Liu Bang here.
Even, a few days ago, Han Xin received news that Liu Bang led 10,000+ Han troops to advance lightly against the enemy.
Seized by Xu Da, he ambushed in a swamp north of Juyeze.
In this battle, Liu Bang lost tens of thousands of horses, forcing the Han army to retreat to the south of Juyeze, and did not dare to cross even the swamp easily.
Now, Han Xin can only wait for Liu Bang to lead the army, so he can only force a decisive battle.
Otherwise, wait for a while, when the food in Handan city is completely gone, the [-] Qi army in the city may be defeated without a fight and surrender to the Qin army on its own initiative.
On June [-], the seventh year of Qin II, Han Xin swore an oath in the Qi army camp, and sent someone to inform Xiang Yu that he was ready to fight the Qin army.
This time, Han Xin was very helpless and had no choice but to bite the bullet.
On the morning of the [-]th, Xiang Yu led the Chu army to launch a crazy attack on the Qin army's camp at Guan Yepo.
Zhao Yun and Lu Bu led [-] Qin troops to fight against Xiang Yu and Ying Bu's [-] Chu troops at Guanyepo.
At the same time, Han Xin led more than [-] Qi troops, and was also preparing to cooperate with Zhang Han to attack the Qin army that besieged Handan City, break through the siege of the Qin army, and rescue the main force of the [-] Qi troops in Handan City.
On the morning of the [-]th, thick smoke billowed from a mountain in Handan City, which was the signal agreed by Han Xin and Zhang Han.
"King Zhang, this is the king's signal!"
After Zhang Han saw the signal in the city, he immediately ordered the [-] Qi troops in Handan city to assemble.
"Hand down the king's order to let all the resting soldiers gather in the school grounds.
In addition, let the generals of all ministries come to this king to discuss matters immediately. "
Zhang Han began to prepare.
Half a day later, Zhang Han was in Handan City and told all Qi generals, "Is this so, [-] soldiers and horses are enough? There is no joke in the army."
At this time, Xu Feng really expected Xu Da to stand up and provoke the leader.
"Your Majesty, [-] soldiers and horses are enough, and the humble officials are only blocking the Han army, not defeating the Han army.
Your Majesty only needs to give Weichen 3 horses. Even if Liu Bang brings 10,000+ Han troops, within three months, Weichen will never let him cross Zhang County and Dong'e area. "
Xu Da said confidently.
"Haha, okay, from now on, I will give Aiqing special privileges.
Of the soldiers of my 16 army, except for the Xuanjia iron cavalry and the tiger and leopard cavalry, you can pick the rest of the troops at will, and you can pick a full 3 horses.
Dealing with the Han army, I will entrust it all to Aiqing. "
Xu Feng said so.
"Thank you, Your Majesty.
The [-] soldiers and horses of the Weichen should all be infantry, not cavalry. It is best to give the Weichen [-] armored infantry and [-] elite crossbowmen.
There are also [-] specially made bed crossbows in the army and [-] barrels of kerosene, enough food for our army for three months. "
Xu Da spoke his request.
Xu Da's request was already a big mouthful.
You know, there are only [-] armored pawns on the Qin army's side, and Xu Da will go directly to [-], which is nearly a quarter!
There are also 3 elite crossbowmen, and the number of crossbowmen in the Qin army is only [-]. They are all equipped with a longbow and an arm crossbow, which can be used for close combat or long-distance shooting.
There are also bed crossbows and kerosene, which are not very sufficient in the Qin army. These are important strategic materials.
"Okay, I agree."
But in the end, Xu Feng agreed to Xu Da's request without changing it at all.
If Xu Da can use these materials and the 10,000 Qin army to really block Liu Bang's [-]+ army, it will be absolutely worth it.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Xu Da, you can choose another person to assist you."
Xu Feng was still worried, and planned to assign Xu Da another general to assist him in the charge.
"Just let General Huang go south with Weichen."
In the end, Xu Da chose Huang Zhong.
"Okay, let Han Sheng assist you, the two of you gather your troops and go south as soon as possible."
"promise."
"Follow filial piety."
Xu Feng looked at Guo Jia again.
"Your Majesty ordered."
"Immediately send Baili to rush back to Xianyang with my letter, and tell the prime minister to recruit [-] young men and all veterans in Guanzhong, and rush to Handan immediately.
Also, an order was sent to Li You in Luoyang to lead the army to Handan.
Then he sent an order to Jia Xu of Jiuyuan to leave 20 soldiers to garrison the Great Wall, and the rest of the soldiers and horses will all go south and must arrive within [-] days, otherwise the military law will be used. "
Xu Feng also intends to do his best this time, and must win this decisive battle.
For this reason, Xu Feng did not hesitate to transfer all the soldiers and horses that could be mobilized in Daqin.
Especially on the Jiuyuan side, there are more than [-] soldiers of the Qin army at this time, still staying at the Jiuyuan Great Wall.
And after the Xiongnu was severely defeated by Xu Feng in that battle, they have been completely honest in the past two years, and they never went south to attack the customs again.
In this way, it is still possible for the [-] Qin soldiers on the Jiuyuan Great Wall to leave temporarily.
As long as the decisive battle on the Handan side can be won, it doesn't matter if the Great Wall is breached by the Huns, and they can definitely fight back in the future.
But if Xu Feng loses the decisive battle in Handan, he will have no future.
On the second day after Xu Feng's meeting ended, Xu Feng received an urgent battle report at the Qin Army Camp in Handan.
Sure enough, it was about Liu Bang over at Shouchun.
"It really makes Feng Xiao right. Liu Bang really led 15 Han troops to the north at this time."
Xu Feng handed the battle report to Guo Jia who was on the side, and said.
"When our scouts delivered this news, the Han army had already arrived in Xiang County, and it would take at most seven days to reach Zhang County and the Dong'e area.
General Xu Da will go back to lead the army this afternoon, and the time is enough for General Xu Da. "
At the end of May, Xu Da led [-] Qin troops to the south, left the battlefield on the Handan side, and went south to the Dong'e area.
When Xu Da led the army to leave, Han Xin also noticed it, and even guessed what the Qin army was going south.
But Han Xin didn't pay attention to it. First, the Qin army who left was only 3 people, and it was impossible to block the Han army for a long time.
The second reason is that at this time, Han Xin was racking his brains on how to rescue the main force of the [-] Qi army led by Zhang Han who was besieged in Handan by the Qin army.
At this time, Han Xin wished that the Qin army would transfer more soldiers and horses from Handan, so that he could find the weakness of the Qin army and rescue the [-] Qi army in Handan city!
At this time, the [-] Qi troops in Handan City were having a hard time.
Since the [-] Qi troops entered Handan City, they did not bring much food and grass at all.

Bang bang bang!
A large number of soldiers of the Qi army who had killed in front of the shield wall of the Qin army slammed into the iron shields of the Qin army, but the shield wall did not move at all.
"Shoot out!"
On Qin Jun's side, a general roared.
In an instant, a gap suddenly appeared between the shield walls, and the soldiers of the Qin Army inside used the spears in their hands to stab out along the gap between the shields.
puff!
"what!"
Suddenly, the screams of countless Qi army infantry rang out in front of the shield wall.
"Keep shooting, stab!"
Qin Jun's iron shield wall was so strong that it was difficult to break through it.
On the top of Qi Jun's head, there are also arrowheads falling from the sky, and spears that may be stabbed out at any time behind the iron shield in front.
It is causing huge damage to the attacking Qi army at all times.
Not only the battle at the east gate of Handan, but also the Qi army breaking out in the south did not go well at first.
