Xiang Yu sat in his bedroom, breathing deeply and dullly.
"Huhu"
His chest was heaving heavily, and white air seemed to be steaming out of his back.
What's striking is that there is a sparkle in his eyes.
"Future Prediction Module" Xiang Yu's expression was a little uncomfortable, and he pressed a finger on his temple.
"I can see, I can see"
Xiang Yu stood up, released his hands from his head, and looked forward.
What exactly is the scenery he can see in his eyes?
Except Xiang Yu, no one else knows.
The next morning, the room used for meetings.
Xiang Yu and Xiang An sat on both sides of the main seat, while the main seat was empty.
It originally belonged to Xiang Liang.
Sitting in the room were Xiang Yu, Xiang An, Xiang Lu, Zi Juan, Wei Hao, Liang Ning and other generals, as well as confidants such as Han Xin and Fan Zeng.
Everyone was silent.
Even Han Xin is a little pessimistic about the current situation.
Xiang Liang, the biggest backbone of Xi Chu and the source of everyone's unity, died.
Together with Xiang Liang's army and the thousands of defenders in Dingtao City, they were all in a state of loss. Although the Chu army was not less than an average person, it was at least a third of the loss. There are still more, and the injuries and illnesses saved on the Dingtao battlefield still need to be treated, so it is impossible to give up.
"Send someone to contact General Liu. We have to start retreating." Xiang Yu looked around. Among the generals present, he and Xiang An have the highest military positions. He is also Xiang An's brother. Now that he is dead, he has to take over Xiang Liang's leadership and take on the task of commanding the entire army.
Xiang An felt that Xiang Yu made people feel a little strange now, but the overall situation was the most important thing. Although Xiang An almost broke his silver teeth, he still nodded and agreed.
"General Xiang Yu, even if we have to retreat, I still have to say something." Xiang An's eyes had no warmth, only coldness, "Whether it is for revenge for the general or for the prosperity of our Chu, that Zhang Han, It must be eradicated.”
"I know." Xiang Yu nodded carelessly, but subconsciously glanced in the northwest direction.
"Hurry up and reorganize the army. Zhang Han's combat power is still sufficient. Our morale is low now. If we collide with the Qin army again, we may continue to suffer losses." Xiang Yu stood up and patted the table.
Everyone nodded silently, except Zijuan who was still in a daze.
"Xiao Si." Xiang An seemed a little unable to bear it, but still patted Zijuan on the shoulder and shook his head, "It's time to organize the army."
Zijuan's shoulders shook, she raised her head blankly and glanced at Xiang An, nodded, and stood up silently.
Xiang An looked at Zijuan who was walking away, and stretched out a hand, as if he wanted to say something. Suddenly he felt a hand appear on his shoulder. When he turned around, it was Xiang Lu who shook his head.
"Leave Xiaosi alone."
Xiang An was silent for a moment, nodded, and walked out.
Xiang Liang is Zijuan's father. Although he only adopted her, over the years, Xiang Liang has really treated and raised Zijuan as his biological daughter. Zijuan also respected Xiang Liang as her biological father and was filial to him.
Now that Xiang Liang is dead, perhaps Zijuan, Xiang Bo, and Xiang Lu are the most saddened.
After reorganizing the army, Xiang Yu and Xiang An led the two armies with a total of more than 40,000 people and began their retreat south of Huai River.
Linji, Zhanghan Military Camp.
"General, the spies have found out that Xiang Yu and Xiang An have begun to retreat very decisively." Jin Qixiu looked excited and reported to Zhang Han with fists in his hands.
Zhang Han, however, was not happy but was worried, and his brows were furrowed.
"Tsk, retreat"
"General, what's wrong?" Jin Qixiu was a little confused, raised his head and asked Zhang Han.
"Although I don't know which of the two brothers gave the order to retreat, I have to say that they are very smart, at least they are not stupid." Zhang Han sighed, folded his hands together, and looked at Jin Qixiu Speaking of.
Jin Qixiu blinked, ran to Zhang Han's side, and sat down cross-legged.
"Qixiu, let me ask you, what are our losses in this Dingtao battle?" Zhang Han turned sideways and looked at Jin Qixiu and asked.
He was not wearing armor now, and his body was covered with bandages, and blood was still seeping under some of the bandages.
"It was the most tragic battle since we left Hangu Pass in the east." Jin Qixiu sighed, "At least 20,000 of the 100,000 troops we brought out died directly on the battlefield, and the wounded were even more There are countless others, even you, the general, have been seriously injured."
"But what about our morale?" Zhang Han continued to ask with a smile on his face.
"Morale" Jin Qixiu was stunned for a moment, and his expression became excited again, "It is precisely because this battle is so difficult that our army's morale may be at its peak now."
"The enemy." Zhang Han nodded with satisfaction, "Although this battle was difficult, precisely because of the difficulty, our morale will be even higher after we win."
"As for Xiang Liang, although Xiang Yu and Xiang An still have about 40,000 to 50,000 troops, plus Liu Ji who is farther away, they can gather a total of 60,000 or even 70,000 troops, which is not much less than us. Look, You can definitely touch us if you go up there.”
"But they can't touch it now."
"Morale is one of the most critical links in combat."
"A good strategy, high morale, and an overwhelming difference in strength. These three points are the key to winning the war." Zhang Han stretched out a finger and shook it.
"In the world-famous Battle of Pengcheng, Brother Xiang Yu and Xiang An used a good strategy. But this time in Dingtao, we used an overwhelming force difference to kill Xiang Liang. If Brother Xiang Yu and Xiang An are coming now If we do, we can easily win through the gap in morale, so I’m sorry that they are so decisive, and if we try to catch up now, I’m afraid we won’t be able to catch up.”
Zhang Han shook his head regretfully.
"So that's the case. That's really a pity." Jin Qixiu also understood what Zhang Han meant and nodded.
"It doesn't matter. Once Xiang Liang died, we also killed all of Xiang Liang's most elite troops in Dingtao City. Western Chu has nothing to fear." Zhang Han smiled indifferently, "After I have recovered from my injuries and the soldiers have readjusted themselves, we will cross the river and go to the north of the river. Wang Li can only contain Yan and Zhao. If he wants to kill Yan and Zhao, he still needs our help. That’s all.”
"Leave enough garrison south of the river, and then we will leave here."
"This is the last general to obey the order." Jin Qixiu perked up, leaned down, and raised his hands to Zhang Han. ,Please remember:,Free fastest update No anti-theft No anti-theft
