In the south, Lugan, Lugan, and finally Wu and Yue.
As Dongfang Yu and others thought, although the Wu and Yue countries had been established for hundreds of years, their foundations were solid. However, with the unstoppable momentum of the Qin State, it quickly occupied half of the world.
Even the leaders of the two countries are constantly beating the drum in their hearts.
after all! Dongfang Yu can be called the first person in thousands of years. There has never been such an awesome person like Dongfang Yu in all dynasties.
Just like the founding ancestor of the Wu Kingdom, when he pacified the world! The ancestors of the two countries did not dare to rebel, let alone boldly split the country.
now! The Dongfang clan gave birth to a more powerful King of Qin, whose talent and ambition could conquer the world. Two countries, how can we not worry about it?
No!
The leaders of the two countries, Emperor Sun Tao of the State of Wu, Prince Yue and Wang Zheng, together with Lu Gan and Lu Kun, signed the Three Kingdoms Covenant in Xincheng, the capital of the State of Wu.
nature! The Chu State tried to win over the two countries, negotiated for three days, and paid a huge price to win it.
The State of Chu promised the State of Wu 150,000 shi of grain, and promised to return several cities that the State of Chu had captured from the State of Wu. As for Yue State, Chu State promised to deliver 250,000 shi of grain. Giving 400,000 stones of food and grass to the two countries at once, Chu State was bleeding a lot!
but! If we can defeat Qin, then! These costs are all worth it.
to this end! The two countries promised Chu, Wu, and Yue that each country would send 150,000 troops to support Chu.
In other words, in addition to the 300,000 troops of the Chu State, plus the 300,000 troops of the Wu and Yue States, a total of 600,000 troops were needed to fight against the Qin State.
On the border between Yuezhou and Jingzhou, Liu Wenqin had an army of 150,000, and Li Jing had an army of 80,000, totaling 230,000.
In order to win this crusade against Chu, Dongfang Yu decided to personally command the army.
Let Yu Haoming lead 50,000 naval troops and 500 warships to lock the danger of Huaichuan River.
Dongfang Yu personally led Qi Lanyin's 50,000 naval troops, plus 70,000 infantry, and led generals such as Xu Meng, Ma Chao, Pei Yuanqing, Yu Wenhu, Luo Sha, Tan Shan, and Ma Dai into the area south of Jingzhou.
The 120,000-strong army joins the 230,000-strong army of Liu Wenqin and Li Jing, that is to say! In the crusade against Chu, Dongfang Yu invested a total of 350,000 troops.
If you add Yu Haoming's 50,000 fleet division, the number of people participating in the battle will be as high as 400,000.
kill!
kill!
kill!
at this time! In Liu Wenqin's camp, the sound of killing was loud. Since the Jingzhou army had cross-trained with the Qin army, its focus was gradually integrating with the Qin army.
The training model is also gradually changing.
"Your Majesty! In the battle against the Chu State, most of them were appointed, but the Jingzhou Army! Their training level is not as good as our army, and their strength is not as good as our army, let alone the elite level. If we fight the Chu State head-on, The losses are likely to be huge.”
Inside the carriage, Dongfang Yu sat down and Xu Meng was beside him.
When this issue was brought up, Xu Meng was actually very worried.
hey-hey!
But Dongfang Yu smiled slightly and said: "The combat effectiveness of the Jingzhou Army is certainly not as strong as that of the Qin Army. But in terms of strength, it is no worse than the Chu Army!"
"I believe it! This battle against Chu is certainly a bit anxious, but it is not impossible to defeat the Chu army. Therefore! Don't worry, strategist!"
There is no way, this is the confidence!
But at this moment, Dongfang Yu was marching, and there were rustling sounds in the mountains and forests on both sides.
On top, all of them were dressed in black, holding long knives in their hands, with small throwing knives or hidden weapons stuck at their waists.
Totally an assassin outfit.
"Sir, King Qin is sitting on a chariot." A man in black looked at Dongfang Yu's chariot and said to the leading man in black.
"I'm not blind. Everyone, please listen to me. This time I have been ordered by the king to assassinate King Qin. Before leaving, we swore an oath that even if we all die in battle, we will kill King Qin."
"Don't let the king down!" the leader said.
The great king in his mouth was naturally the King of Chu.
In response to Zheng Yu's words, instead of relying on the armies of Wu and Yue, it is better to rely on yourself. Therefore! Dongfang Yin took advantage of the fact that King Qin's foothold in Jingzhou was not stable, so he sent a large number of assassins to sneak into Jingzhou.
The purpose is to destroy King Qin at all costs.
"Don't worry, sir. We have been assassins for so many years, and there is still no one we can't kill."
This time, the King of Chu sent two hundred assassins to prepare for an ambush. Even the thunder jars have been buried, the only way for King Qin to enter the southern part of Jingzhou.
"Um!"
The leader nodded, but remained cautious.
The leader's name is Yan Yan, a general from Jiangdong. He is the main person responsible for assassinating King Qin this time.
Moreover, before setting off, this group of them all made a plan of life and death.
"In a moment, you pour kerosene and throw it on the road. I will shoot rockets, ignite the kerosene, ignite the oil cans in the ground, and blow up King Qin's carriage." Strictly ordered.
Immediately! He lit a rocket and aimed it at the oil can on the ground.
"promise!"
Everyone took orders.
Dongfang Yu's carriage slowly drove into the place where the Chu assassins buried the oil cans. But he didn't notice anything was wrong with Qin Qing's situation at all.
but! The troops protecting Dongfang Yu are the world-famous Xuanjia Army. The Xuanjia Army is the most elite army in the Qin Dynasty, and its acuity is not comparable to that of ordinary people.
"Prepare!"
Yan Yan has slowly raised his big hand.
All the men in black were getting ready.
Fifty of them were holding a kerosene bottle in their hands, waiting for a stern order to throw it down.
"Throw!"
Yan Yan suddenly shouted, and all the men in black immediately raised the oil cans in their hands and threw them down.
Others, however, drew their bows and arrows and shot towards the Qin army.
Yu Wenshu has quick eyes and hands. When Yan Yan first started, he realized that something was wrong and thought to himself: "Not good!"
"Xuanjia Army, block."
Soon enough, the Xuanjia army in the furthest row immediately put their shields upright in front of Wang Chu.
The row of Xuanjia soldiers in the middle and behind quickly drew out the crossbows straddling themselves behind them.
call out! call out! call out!
Qin's crossbows were already extremely powerful, not to mention that at such a close distance, all the cans of kerosene were shot through by the Xuanjia Army's bows and arrows before they even hit the ground.
But... there are still fish caught in the net and fall to the ground.
"Damn it, damn it!" Yan Yan cursed secretly.
Immediately, he shot his own rocket, instantly igniting the kerosene flashing in the air.
The Xuanjia Army, which was stained with kerosene, was no exception. Fire immediately burned on the armor.
The fire burned quickly, but surprisingly, the horse that the Xuanjia Army sat on did not become agitated at all even though it was burned by the fire.
Even horses are like this! Not to mention the Xuanjia soldiers!
"His grandma made a miscalculation. Brothers, kill King Qin!"
"kill!"
Men in black, holding swords in their hands, rushed toward the Qin army from the side slopes.
