Starting from the tenth day of the first lunar month, the 300,000 Han army lasted four months, and finally crossed the vast grassland and entered the territory of the Great Xia Kingdom.
"Hey, it's really not easy to finally enter the territory of the Great Xia Kingdom" Looking at the exotic buildings, Yue Fei, the commander of the three armies, couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
Behind him, flags were waved, swords and guns covered the sun, and 300,000 male divisions came all over the mountains, like ant colonies, overwhelming the sky, and the momentum was terrifying.
This is the northeastern border of the Great Xia Kingdom, and it is still about three hundred miles away from Mulu City, the capital of the Great Xia Kingdom.
Knowing that Yue Fei's army had arrived, the thousands of Daxia border soldiers stationed at the border had already fled, and the people had fled without a trace, leaving only the sparse villages to remain silent under the hot sun, and the silence was somewhat creepy.
At this moment, it is May, the temperature in West Asia is scorching, and the armor worn on the body has been exposed to the sun for a day, and the hot skin is painful.
Therefore, since more than a month ago, Yue Fei ordered to travel at night and during the day, avoiding the noon march as much as possible, and taking off his armor and wearing only a thin shirt to hurry.
The soldiers went through a lot of hardships all the way and finally arrived at the Great Xia Kingdom, which was thousands of miles away.
Sun Bin rode forward and said: "Our army came with the overwhelming momentum of Mount Tai, and united with the 500,000 soldiers under the command of Wu Qi, with a total strength of up to 800,000, which is even close to the total population of the Great Xia Kingdom.
According to the scout's report, there are only 70,000 or 80,000 troops left under Xiang Yu's command, and a person who can speak well can be sent to Mulu City to advise, know the benefits, and salute first and then soldiers. ” Yue Fei turned his head and glanced at the other three strategists behind him, Fa Zheng, Liu Ye, and Kou Zhunju all looked upright, and they all agreed to Sun Bin's proposal: "My Han army is more than ten times that of Xiang Yu, if this Yu is self-aware, he should not resist stubbornly anymore and send someone to lobby, Xiang Yu will surrender nine times out of ten." ” In addition to the four major strategists under Yue Fei's command, there are also Ran Min, Yue Yun, Gao Chong, Yang Ye, Gao Changgong, Di Lei, Yan Chengfang, Lu Meng, Dong Xi, Huo Jun, Yue Lei, Xue Dingshan and other fierce generals.
Yue Fei stroked his beard in agreement, and his eyes swept to Kou Zhun: "Xiang Yu is also a prince, and it would be disrespectful to send an ordinary envoy there."
Ben Shuai decided to send Ping Zhong to personally go to Mulu City to lobby Xiang Yu to show his sincerity. ” "Obey Yue Shuai's orders, the lower officials are willing to persuade Xiang Yu to surrender with his incorruptible tongue" Kou Zhun agreed, and took a hundred and ten followers to throw off the team and gallop westward towards Mulu City.
Fa Zheng also suggested: "In order to put pressure on Xiang Yu, please ask Yue Shuai to send a cavalry to follow Kou Pingzhong and raise the prestige of our Han army."
Yue Fei agreed, and ordered Ran Min, Gao Chong, Yue Yun, and Gao Changgong to each lead 10,000 cavalry, and the soldiers were divided into four roads, marching together, and swept towards Mulu City, letting Xiang Yu see the momentum of the Han army first.
Just when Yue Fei's army entered the territory of the Great Xia Kingdom, Wu Qi was also dispatching troops.
Since Liu Xiu led 300,000 Roman troops to rescue Xiang Yu in Layue last year, Wu Qi turned defense into attack, and ordered Su Lie to lead Jiang Song, Zhang He, Kuai Yue and others to lead 150,000 horses to hold Shache City, block the way of Liu Xiu's army, hold on without a fight, and wait for Yue Fei's army to come to help.
In order to preserve his troops, Liu Xiu did not launch a fierce attack on the Han army at the beginning, but played several tricks with Wu Qi by borrowing grain, negotiating peace, etc., but none of them took advantage.
When the Roman scouts discovered that Yue Fei led 300,000 Han troops to help, only more than 2,000 miles away from the north of Great Xia, they realized that something was wrong, and ordered Wu Han, Ma Yuan, Ma Shanwei and others to lead the army to storm the Blue Horse Pass, and strive to meet with the 150,000 Babylonian army in the west and the Great Xia army in the north as soon as possible.
But when he encountered Su Lie, a fierce opponent, after half a month of fierce battles, Liu Xiu did not take any advantage at all.
Moreover, there are as many as 150,000 soldiers and horses in Su Lie's hands, and Tian Dan, who is guarding the Blue Horse Pass, leads 150,000 horses and horses to fight each other, so he can defend the city to the death, and he can go out of the city to fight in the field, and he is not afraid of the Roman legions at all.
The two sides fought fiercely for half a month, winning and losing each other, and the Roman army lost at least 20,000 horses under the city because of the repeated storming of Shache City, and the overall loss far exceeded that of the Han army, resulting in a somewhat low morale.
Wu Qi ordered Tian Dan to be the main general, and led fifteen people with Yang Qilang, Zhang Han, Xue Ji, Sun Yi and others to garrison Lanma Pass, and while resisting the counterattack of the Great Xia army, he waited for the opportunity to rescue Shache City, and Su Lie was each other's horns.
After two fiascos last year, Xiang Yu suffered heavy losses, with a total strength of only about 70,000, including the newly recruited 20,000 new troops, who were too busy to take care of themselves, and were unable to recover Lanma Pass.
Xiang Yu led his troops to attack several times, but they were all shot back by the fierce rain of arrows of the Han army, even if he had the power to move mountains and reclaim the sea, he could not make up for the huge gap in strength.
"Hmph, I defend the city with 150,000 people, and he will commit with 50,000 people, if you get it, what face does my Tiandan have standing between heaven and earth" Looking at Xiang Yu, who was dejected, and the Great Xia army under his command, Tian Dan on the city wall sneered.
Su Lie united with Tiandan, relying on the two impregnable cities of Shache City and Lanma Pass, he could not only carry Liu Xiu in the south, but also reject Xiang Yu in the north, and he was at ease without any pressure at all.
Wu Qi led Huang Feihu, He Yuanqing, Shang Shitu, Fu Zhu and others to the west with 200,000 soldiers and horses, and faced the 150,000 Babylonian coalition army led by Alexander in the area of Maijishan.
Relying on the courage and skill of the Han soldiers, the 200,000 Han troops united as one, won several battles, and broke the Babylonian coalition army with their own ghosts, killed more than 50,000 enemies, and repelled the coalition army for more than 200 miles.
When he learned that Yue Fei's army had approached Mulu City for hundreds of miles, Wu Qi couldn't help but stroke his beard and laughed: "Haha, it seems that Mulu City is going to be captured by Yue Pengju, but he came from afar, this can be regarded as a meeting gift from my colleague to him."
Huang Feihu, He Yuanqing, Shang Shifu and others looked unwilling: "Wu Shuai, we have been fighting for so long, can we give it to Yue Shuai, so the soldiers will suffer too much."
Wu Qi stroked his beard and laughed: "In order for the generals not to fight for the gains and losses of one city and one place, let's go south to copy Liu Xiu's back road and hand over Mulu City to Yue Pengju."
Annihilation of Liu Xiu's corps and the capture of Mulu City, which one do you choose?"
The generals suddenly had an epiphany, and said one after another: "There are only sixty or seventy thousand soldiers and horses left in Xiang Yu's hands, and it is already the end of the strong crossbow, and when I see Yue Shuai's 300,000 reinforcements, maybe I will take the initiative to open the door and surrender."
In that case, it won't be interesting for us to take Mulu City, or the joy of annihilating Liu Xiu's army."
Master Shang touched the bearded monster under his chin and smiled: "More than 200,000 people, you can slaughter again" Wu Qi immediately issued an order, and the whole army turned around and marched westward, intercepting Liu Xiu's rear road as fast as possible.
At the same time, scouts were sent to Lanma Pass, and Tian Dan was ordered to leave a small number of soldiers and horses to guard the pass, and then led the army to the south to join Su Lie's corps, and launched a frontal assault on Liu Xiu's corps, forming an encirclement as soon as possible, and striving to completely annihilate the Roman legion that took the initiative to send to the door.
Just as Wu Qi's army was leaving, Yu Ji took the initiative to ask for a meeting, and Shi Li said: "Wu Shuai, I heard that Yue Shuai led 300,000 male divisions to help, and there are only hundreds of miles left from Mulu City.
And the people of the Great Xia Kingdom are already less than one million, and the number of troops is only sixty or seventy thousand, and they are powerless to resist.
And King Xiang has a stubborn personality, I am afraid that he would rather die than surrender, and the jade will be burned, so I plan to go to Mulu City to meet King Xiang and persuade him to submit to the Han Dynasty and turn the war into jade silk.
Please Wu Shuai complete" "If that's the case, then the good is great, and I should send someone to see him off."
Wu Qi agreed, and ordered a partial general to lead five hundred cavalry guards to send Yu Ji to the north near Mulu City and then come back to resume his life.
With the clatter of horses' hooves, Yu Ji, full of sorrow, headed north, while Wu Qi led nearly 200,000 high-morale Han troops to the south, striving to cut off Liu Xiu's return route as soon as possible, and annihilating the Roman legions that were relying on the outside of Shache City in one fell swoop.
Despite the arrival of Roman and Babylonian reinforcements, the battered Bactria dynasty was already crumbling.
Xiang Yu led 50,000 people to counterattack the Blue Horse Pass, but was met with stubborn resistance from Tian Dan, not only failed to recover the pass, but lost five or six thousand soldiers and horses, which made the Great Xia Dynasty even worse.
Knowing that Yue Fei's army had arrived in the north, Xiang Yu could only abandon Salt Lake City and lead his troops to retreat towards Mulu City, the capital of the country.

Although the red sun is scorching and flowing like fire, Xiang Yu's heart is like falling into an ice cave, and he closes his eyes and sighs from time to time on the horse: "The dream of returning to my homeland should wake up, Daxia is dying, even if I Xiang Yu tries my best to pull out the mountain and cover the world, how can I not recover this fallen tide, and I can't support the building that will collapse, this road is a heroic end after all." t1706231537:
