However, although Fan Zeng's idea is good, the plan cannot change as quickly as it does. No matter how good the plan is, it will inevitably encounter various problems in the specific process of implementation. Just half a day after Xiang Yu's cavalry set off, Li Cunxiao's three thousand flying tiger cavalry arrived as the vanguard.
At this time, Cen Peng, who was hiding near Guangcheng Pass and looking for opportunities to make meritorious deeds, immediately found Li Cunxiao and told Li Cunxiao about the situation he had been quietly observing him these days.
Although the surroundings of the Xiang clan were heavily guarded, Cen Peng did not dare to get too close, so he only noticed the Xiang clan's cavalry dispatching but did not know its specific target and direction.
However, Yue Fei had already analyzed for Li Cunxiao the possible attack methods of the Xiang family. Therefore, Li Cunxiao already had a relative judgment of his own, and he chased in the direction of Hulao Pass without much hesitation.
At the same time, just in case, Li Cunxiao also asked Cen Peng to go and notify Yue Fei who was still marching. In this case, if he guessed wrong and the Xiang clan's cavalry target was not Hulao Pass but Luoyang, there would be no big problem.
If Yue Fei is here, if he dares to attack with just a few cavalry, he will definitely go there and never come back.
After all, Sizhou was still Li Xiang's base camp. Although Xiang Yu had set off half a day earlier, Li Cunxiao decided to take a shortcut to catch up. On the other hand, in order to speed up, he directly gave up unnecessary things such as food, grass and baggage to reduce the burden.
Food, grass and baggage may be very important to Xiang Yu, and he must bring enough with him when he sets off, but Li Cunxiao is different. He sent a general order to the county magistrates along the way to help him prepare in advance, so he can naturally carry it with him along the way. Get adequate supplements.
Finally, under Li Cunxiao's full pursuit, he finally intercepted Xiang Yu halfway.
When he met Li Cunxiao, who had been famous all over the world for a long time, Xiang Yu was full of fighting spirit. What's more, if he wants to continue to move forward, he must break through Li Cunxiao's obstruction. Therefore, there had to be a fight between these two people.
The first battle between the two sides ended with Li Cunxiao's defeat. When it comes to the combat effectiveness of the soldiers, the individual combat effectiveness of Li Cunxiao's Flying Tiger Army is still higher than that of the three cavalry soldiers: Tenglong, Shadow Tiger, and Thunder Leopard. However, this is not enough to support these cavalry against two. After all, Li Cunxiao's Flying Tiger Army only had 3,000 men at full strength, while Xiang Yu had a total of 6,000 men behind him.
They are also the most elite troops on both sides. Even if the Flying Tiger Army is stronger than the other three troops, the gap between them is very limited, and it is impossible for one to fight against two.
What's more, apart from soldiers, Li Cunxiao also had relatively few generals under his command. After all, it is just a vanguard army, and it is commanded by an invincible warrior like Li Cunxiao. In addition, Yue Fei's army also needs enough masters to hold down the formation. Therefore, when setting off, Yue Fei only sent one Lu Wenlong to Li Cunxiao to help him.
Li Cunxiao and Xiang Yu were fighting equally. If there were no unexpected factors, there would be no winner even if they fought for a day. But Lu Wenlong fights three by himself. He doesn't have the ability to last long!
Therefore, the first confrontation between Li Cunxiao and Xiang Yu ended with Li Cunxiao taking the initiative to retreat after a brief battle.
However, although he couldn't defeat the opponent in a head-on fight, Li Cunxiao just bit the opponent and refused to let go. The other side wanted to sneak attack Hulao Pass, and the allied forces of Cao and Yuan attacked from front to back, but there was no way!
However, should we say that Li Cunxiao has good luck, or should we say that Xiang Yu has bad luck! Just when neither side could do anything against the other, Li Cunxiao was lucky enough to meet his master Tantai Yu. Although Tantai Yu is not as invincible as Li Cunxiao, he has initially reached the level of a divine general, with a basic force of 106 points.
With Tantaiyu's help, Li Cunxiao was not afraid of confronting Xiang Yu again this time. Although the number of soldiers was still only half of the opponent's, the generals under his command were able to deal with the opponent even if they were two against three.
Before, Li Cunxiao had to take the initiative to retreat for the safety of his generals, but now the relationship between the two parties has been reversed. Although there is still no winner between Xiang Yu and Li Cunxiao, for the safety of his generals, Xiang Yu has become I had to take the lead in retreating.
Each side has its own strengths and weaknesses, and no one can easily defeat the other. But it is conceivable that the Xiang family's idea of raiding Hulao Pass failed.
When Xiang Yan and Fan Zeng received the news, the wily Fan Zeng suddenly had another plan in mind. Since Xiang Yu's plan to raid Hulao Pass failed, Fan Zeng simply turned his attention to Li Cunxiao and the Flying Tiger Army.
If Yue Fei's large army can be planned to capture such an elite force and a strong general like Li Cunxiao when it arrives, it will undoubtedly give the Jin army a few blows, and there will be other plans for their next battle. benefit.
If it were just Li Cunxiao, he would inevitably fall into Fan Zeng's scheme. After all, if it was about muscle, Li Cunxiao would be far behind Fan Zeng, but if it was about brains, then Fan Zeng would be far behind Li Cunxiao!
Unfortunately, when Yue Fei and Liu Bowen learned about Li Cunxiao's actions from Cen Peng, they had already sent people to inform Li Cunxiao that after blocking Xiang Yu, they would stand still and wait for the arrival of the large army. Therefore, with the intervention of Yue Fei and Liu Bowen, Li Cunxiao did not fall into each other's trap.
Just when Fan Zeng failed and was preparing to make a plan, Yue Fei's large army arrived at this time. Soon, the two sides faced off near the Guangchengguan ruins.
The situation after that was not very friendly to the Xiang family. Yue Fei's troops were flawless, Xiang Yan really had no way to defeat the enemy, and the fighting skills between Fan Zeng and Liu Bowen were equally matched, and no one could take advantage of the other.
With the news of Li Xiang's occupation of Chang'an and Yang Jian's death, the people of the Xiang family became even more confused. The opponent has initially captured Yongliang. It can be said that they have failed more than half of their goal of sending troops this time. Li Xiang, who has freed up his hands, will not let them wreak havoc in Sizhou.
However, although I know that if I continue to fight under the current situation, there may not be any good results. However, the senior leaders of the Xiang clan also have their own plans and ideas, and they will not give up this battle easily. No matter what, we have to wait for Cao Cao and Yuan Shao's actions. As long as Cao Cao and Yuan Shao do not retreat, it is not impossible to continue the fight.
