The next day, a huge black and gold Qin flag fluttered in the wind.
Liu Zhang personally commanded the army, with Dian Wei and Zhang Liao guarding him.
One hundred thousand troops left Wancheng and headed straight north to kill Huainan.
The Qin army is fierce and unstoppable, exuding an astonishing aura of being unstoppable and invincible.
However, the morale of this army is amazing, but their marching speed is not very fast.
In other words, a little slow.
All of this was naturally Liu Zhang's order.
Not only was Liu Zhang not in a hurry, he also intervened to slow down the advance.
Let the army march at a speed slightly inferior to normal marching.
One is to reduce the pressure on soldiers during marching.
How huge is an army of one hundred thousand?
Only by slowing down the marching speed can the morale of the soldiers be preserved to the greatest extent.
The second is to leave time for Xu Huang and Gao Shun so that they can expand their results in Huainan as much as possible.
In addition, Pang Tong has also led his army into Huainan, and there should be good results.
Liu Zhang led an army of 100,000 men and did not want to waste too much time in attacking the city.
He has only one goal, Shouchun City.
If possible, it would be best to point directly at Shouchun and attack in one go.
Give Gao Shun and Xu Huang time to smooth everything out.
In this case, the road ahead will be extremely smooth.
At the same time, it also gives the two of them an opportunity to make meritorious deeds in order to erase their previous mistakes.
Of course, it would be great if Gao Shun and Xu Huang worked hard to defeat Shouchun in one fell swoop.
The army will march slowly for the time being and head to Hefei to learn about the latest battle situation.
Then, based on the battle report, you can choose how to advance.
Due to too much delay, Liu Zhang arrived in Hefei three days later.
However, before they could enter the city, bad news struck again.
"What did you say!"
Liu Zhang roared and angrily grabbed the soldier's collar.
The latest battle report was completely unacceptable to him.
"King Qin, spare your life!"
The soldiers still reported things directly to him in Wancheng. The defeat was just like last time. It was still a defeat.
However, this defeat seems to be more complete than before.
Liu Zhang dragged the soldier with no intention of letting go.
He wanted to be updated immediately.
"what happened!"
"King Qin, this is what it is..."
It turned out that after receiving Liu Zhang's order, Gao Shun and Xu Huang quickly organized their troops and marched directly towards Shouchun City.
All the cities they passed along the way were occupied without exception.
Moreover, just as Liu Zhang expected, Zhou Yu withdrew all his troops and the army did not receive any resistance.
This time it was truly a battle without bloodshed.
Knowing that Liu Zhang was about to lead his army, Gao Shun and Xu Huang did not dare to be too lax about the city they had captured, so they left two thousand men to garrison the city.
In this way, by the time they approached Shouchun, there were not many soldiers and horses left under their command.
Fortunately, there was the Eastern Army led by Pang Tong ahead, so Gao Shun and Xu Huang didn't pay too much attention.
The journey was safe and sound. Gao Shun and Xu Huang returned to the army smoothly under Shouchun City.
However, they did not see Pang Tong.
Xu Huang and Gao Shun were both stunned.
The combined strength of the two of them is less than 10,000, and they come to surround Shouchun, whose strength far exceeds theirs?
Isn't this crazy?
Xu Huang and Gao Shun immediately made a decision to withdraw their troops and return to the nearest city to garrison and wait for the follow-up army.
But before they could retreat, the Shouchun city gate opened and Zhou Yu personally led his troops to kill them.
If you withdraw at this time, there will be no problem. The Huainan Army is all infantry and there will be no advantage in pursuing it.
But Xu Huang and Gao Shun both made misjudgments at the same time.
In other words, he underestimated Zhou Yu at the same time.
Although the Imperial Guards are small, they are definitely not comparable to the Huainan Army.
Under the sneak attack and under the fire, the Huainan army could not help but the Imperial Guards, let alone such a head-on confrontation in the blue sky and in broad daylight?
Moreover, Gao Shun brought Sanqian Zhen camp with him!
The two hit it off immediately and immediately began to lead their troops to counterattack.
I want to defeat Zhou Yu in one go!
In this way, the Imperial Guards and the Huainan Army strangled each other again.
At the beginning of the battle, as the two expected, the Huainan Army was vulnerable.
Especially being stuck in a camp is like chopping melons and vegetables.
When the Huainan Army came out of the Shouchun City Gate, the Qin Army kept breaking in, and it was about to break into the city!
Even the commander-in-chief Zhou Yu was completely shocked and froze on the spot at a loss.
Xu Huang understands the overall situation, how could he miss such an opportunity?
He knew very well that as long as he captured Zhou Yu, great things would happen!
Immediately let the trapped camp disrupt the situation outside, while he rushed in frantically with his own soldiers.
Xu Huang became more and more courageous as he fought, and he had no enemy at all.
It only took a quarter of an hour to reach Zhou Yu!
There was no conversation, no contempt, no ridicule, no persuasion to surrender.
Xu Huang raised his hand and struck out with an axe.
As a result, Zhou Yu's head rose up in response.
There is an extra headless corpse on the battlefield.
This situation made Xu Huang confused.
The commander of the Huainan Army, Zhou Yu, who designed them, died like this?
However, before he could be happy, Xu Huang discovered something strange.
Normally, when the commander dies, morale will instantly fall to the bottom.
Wherever the army can resist, it will collapse in an instant!
But the Huainan Army seemed not to be affected and was still fighting the Qin Army.
Just when Xu Huang was confused, the loud shouts of killing sounded again all around.
When he saw the new Zhou flag flying, Xu Huang understood instantly.
Fooled again!
The Zhou Yu who was killed just now was a fake to lure them.
When Xu Huang turned around and looked again, he was instantly stunned.
The mountains and plains were full of enemy troops, and he and Gao Shun were surrounded!
No matter how strong the Imperial Guard is, they cannot face countless enemy troops.
No matter how brave you are when you are trapped in the camp, you will eventually run out of strength.
When there is still no way out despite the constant killing, and enemy troops are everywhere you look, anyone's mentality will be affected.
The Imperial Guards are like this, the trapped camp is like this, even Gao Shun and Xu Huang will be like this!
Fortunately, neither of them are waiting to die.
Faced with this situation, he still did not give up resistance.
Xu Huang rose up again, led his army to break out of the encirclement, and joined Gao Shun.
But facing the boundless enemy army, Gao Shun was helpless.
Being trapped in the camp is a killing spree, but without killing anyone, one's physical strength is exhausted.
If this continues, even if you are wearing iron armor and are invincible, you will fall to the ground exhausted!
At the same time, Zhou Yu had no intention of staying behind.
He gave his soldiers only one order.
Kill without mercy!
