Call of the Heroes of Chaos in Another World

Chapter 1994: Han Xin Unifies Qingbei, Zhang Lu Goes to Han Camp
Qingbei!

In the battle that day, Yang Yanzhao, under the remote command of Han Xin, successfully attacked Xuanyuan Huang's vanguard troops.

After this battle, Xuanyuan Huang was not sure how many troops Han Xin had deployed along the river banks!

Although Han Xin's troops were small, the 40,000 Guandong troops were all elite. If their main force did not come, with only their vanguard troops, even with the remnants of Yang Su's defeated troops, they would not be a match for the 40,000 Guandong troops.

Therefore, Xuanyuan Huang, who suffered a setback in the first battle, finally chose to take it slow and wait patiently for the arrival of the follow-up main force.

As for Han Xin himself, he led 5,000 Guandong troops, plus a large number of captured soldiers and horses, and marched non-stop to take over the three northern counties of Qingbei Road.

While he was taking over the three northern counties of Qingbei Road, he was also carrying out preliminary integration of the 100,000 captives during the march.

In order to ensure that these 100,000 troops had sufficient combat effectiveness as soon as possible, Han Xin disbanded all 5,000 Kwantung troops and let these 5,000 men serve as officers of the 100,000 captured troops in order to complete the integration of this army as quickly as possible.

After the main force of Dayan arrived, Han Xin also took over most of the three northern counties of Qingbei Road during this period of time. In fact, the captured army had already begun to take shape in his hands.

Since the three counties in the northern part of Qingbei Road had already been preliminarily accepted and the Han flags were raised in all the counties of these three counties, Han Xin did not stay. After simply leaving some people behind, he immediately met up with Yang Yanzhao.

In the days that followed, Alcyoneus became very powerful and defeated the generals of Dayan, forcing them to stay in their camps and not come out.

Although Deng Jiugong and Anubis had some injuries on their bodies, the giant was still intact. Most importantly, the two main generals, Alcyoneus and Wu Changkong, were also fine.

In comparison, the remnants of Dongcang in Dayan were in a miserable state.

Zhang Churang and Geng Biao were both seriously injured and were far from recovered, and it would take quite some time.

Xuanyuan Ba, the main force, was also injured in the previous battle, although not as seriously as Zhang Churang and Geng Biao. However, he still needs to recuperate for a while.

The only ones left were Zheng Zishan, the navy's top general, and Li Mu, the former top general of the Tianshi Dao.

However, although Li Mu was once the number one general of Tianshi Dao, there is still a big gap between him and the fully grown Xuanyuan Ba.

Alcyoneus is a character that only Xuanyuan Ba ​​can deal with. Li Mucheng can hardly compete with him.

Therefore, they could only allow Alcyoneus to commit atrocities in front of the battlefield.

After all, Xuanyuan Huang has now ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor. It is impossible for him to continue to act like a reckless man and be violent and ruthless on the battlefield as he did in the past.

Even if he was willing, Feng Hou and other advisers would definitely dissuade him in time.

Alcyoneus is ferocious, and the current Dayan can't do anything to him, so Xuanyuan Huang simply doesn't want to fight him in a battle of generals, but in a battle of formations.

But once it comes to a fight, it will be Han Xin's turn to stay behind closed doors and refuse to fight.

Once the battle begins, there will be at least several thousand soldiers, and at most tens of thousands of soldiers. After all, Han Xin has a large number of captive soldiers. Once the battle begins, some of his true strengths and weaknesses will surely be exposed. At present, it is not the right time!
Xuanyuan Huang was also waiting, waiting for Yang Su to find ways to restore the morale of the remaining Dongcang troops. Even if it was far from being able to return to its peak state, at least it could not be as listless as it is now.

At the same time, he was also waiting for the generals to recover from their injuries.

Zhang Churang and Geng Biao might not be able to recover in a short time. However, Xuanyuan Ba ​​was only a little exhausted in that battle, and the injuries on his body were not too serious. Xuanyuan Ba ​​had the foundation to recover in a short time.

As for Han Xin, Xuanyuan Huang was not in a hurry to attack, and he was happy with it.

If he could delay for one more day, he would have more time to integrate these captured troops.

As for Dayan, they obviously did not think that Han Xin would be able to restore the combat effectiveness of such a captured army in a short period of time.

Moreover, although Xuanyuan Huang did not take the initiative to attack at this time, it did not mean that he did nothing.

The 100,000 captured soldiers were all former soldiers of Dongcang. The remnants of Dongcang still had a large number of high-ranking generals of Dongcang. Dayan had been thinking of using this to shake the morale of the 100,000 captured soldiers.

It would be best to cause an internal mutiny. If this can be achieved, their army will take advantage of the situation to launch an attack, and even if Han Xin has extraordinary abilities, he will be defeated in a snap.

For this reason, Zhang Guiba's son Zhang Handing once tried to blend in with the captured soldiers. After all, a considerable number of those captured soldiers had once served under Zhang Guiba.

As long as he can get in touch with this group of people, he is confident that he can attract them over.

However, among the 100,000 captured troops, there are 5,000 people serving as low-level officers. The combat effectiveness of this army may not be restored to a certain extent, but at least Han Xin's control over this army has increased sharply.

Moreover, it is not so easy to sneak into the barracks.

Therefore, Zhang Handing could be said to have lost more than he gained. Not only did he fail to achieve his goal, but he also got himself involved.

According to history, Zhang Handing was the eldest son of Zhang Guiba. However, because he died too early, he has no fame in history.

In this life, although he did not die young, he did not have the chance to make a name for himself as his young life was ended early.

"Yan Zhao, Zhang Handing was killed too early!"

Inside the central army camp, Han Xin held a chicken leg in one hand and spoke with his mouth full of oil.

In Han Xin's opinion, a living person is much better than a dead person.

If Zhang Handing were alive, he could help him accomplish many things.

"This man is so loyal and brave, it's hard to keep him alive!" Yang Yanzhao said with regret.

He also thought about capturing this man alive, but unfortunately, he did not seize the opportunity.

"That's it!"

"He's just a small character anyway!"

Although it was a bit regrettable, now that the matter had been settled, Han Xin didn't need to say anything more.

After all, Yang Yanzhao was Wen Zhong's man, not his, and was only temporarily under his command. There was no need to dwell on minor mistakes.

Moreover, although Zhang Handing was indeed useful to Han Xin, he was not indispensable.

"General Han, General Wu came to report that an envoy from Yan has crossed the river and is seeking a meeting!" While the two were talking, a lieutenant came in to report.

"Xuanyuan Huang's people?" "Why would his people come? Is there some trick?" Yang Yanzhao said to himself with a puzzled look on his face.

"It's okay, send someone to pick him up! Come and see what the trick is!" Han Xin said without raising his head as he continued to eat.

Now, the two armies are facing each other along the river, and the troops of both sides are deployed along the coast. The central military camps of both sides naturally cannot be at the front line. Even the nearest ferry is twenty miles away.

Therefore, Han Xin was not in a hurry at this time, as it would take some time for people to arrive.

By the time they waited, it was almost evening when the envoy from Dayan finally arrived.

As Zhang Lu came along, he saw layers of deer horns and densely packed arrow towers on the camp, in addition to these, there were also watchtowers.

The spears are sharp and the iron armor is clanging.

Along the way, scouts were galloping back and forth outside the camp, and there were countless visible and hidden sentries everywhere.

Above the camp, flags were fluttering, and a large banner was flying in the wind right above the camp, with "General and Protector General of Han" embroidered in the middle.

Behind the big banner, there were flags of various sizes of generals raised in the camp.

Looking at the camp set up by Han Xin, Zhang Lu frowned slightly. The defense of this sturdy camp was no weaker than that of a small city.

No wonder His Majesty did not dare to attack the Han army camp, but wanted to wait until the remaining Dongcang soldiers and horses recovered some morale and were truly useful before launching a general attack. If he attacked at this time, I am afraid that the Yan army would suffer heavy casualties.

Dongcang is now almost in name only. After this battle, the southeastern part of the entire original eighteen paths of Dacang will be dominated by their Dayan.

If their strength is weakened in advance at this time, it will be disadvantageous for the future.

Just from looking at this camp, Zhang Lu had to admit that Han Xin was worthy of being a military master. Putting aside the camp, Han Xin's military level was indeed one of the best in the world.

After dismounting and entering the camp, Zhang Lu saw neatly built tents along the way, arranged in an orderly manner without any sense of clutter.

The soldiers on both sides were big and strong, wearing armor and holding sharp weapons, and they looked fierce and valiant. They didn't look like a group of prisoners.

After seeing the appearance of the Han army, Zhang Lu had to admit that Han Xin's military command skills were also first-class in the world.

After another cup of tea, Zhang Lu finally arrived in front of Han Xin's tent.

And this Zhang Lu is also a system character, a system character implanted into Dayan.

The Three Kingdoms period was a brilliant period in Chinese history with many heroes and generals emerging, and it gave birth to many political and military leaders who are well-known to later generations.

Over the past hundred years, heroes have been vying for supremacy in the Central Plains, and it has been very lively. Among these many characters, Zhang Lu has the weakest presence, but he is also the most unique protagonist.

Zhang Lu ruled Hanzhong for 20 years without fighting for territory, making alliances with other princes, or relying on superior military and political means. He only tried to promote a ruling method that combined politics and religion as the leader of the Five Pecks of Rice Sect. Among the many princes at the end of the Han Dynasty, this one was also a very unique figure.

After he was born, the identity he was implanted with was that of the nephew of Zhang Lingmo, the first leader of the Heavenly Master Sect.

In today's Dayan, he is in charge of many religious affairs of the Tianshi Dao.

Nowadays, there are many people who have established dynasties and proclaimed themselves emperors in the original Da Cang land, but Dayan is a relatively special one. Because of its origin, although Dayan is now a country, it is also filled with a strong religious atmosphere.

Xuanyuan Huang was not only the emperor of Dayan, but also the leader of Tianshidao. Zhang Lu was one of the people who was pushed out to be responsible and actually in charge of all teaching affairs of Tianshidao.

In the big tent, there was a middle-aged man who was less than thirty years old, but looked a little old. This man was Han Xin. He was sitting behind a desk, looking Zhang Lu up and down.

"I am Zhang Lu, and I am here to meet the Grand Protector General of Han and Yan by order of His Majesty."

Zhang Lu stood proudly and said "Greetings" but had no intention of bowing at all.

Zhang Lu is now young, only twenty years old. He comes from a prominent family and holds a high position at a young age, so he is naturally arrogant.

At his age, he is already in charge of the affairs of the Tianshi Dao and holds such a high position. It can be said that from ancient times to the present, there are not many people who have achieved this at this age! Therefore, it must be said that he does have some reason to be proud.

Han Xin looked at the strange young man in front of him and asked, "Zhang Lu? You are a nobody. Why did Xuanyuan Huang send you here?"

Although Zhang Lu is not very famous, as the person in charge of the Tianshi Dao religious affairs in Dayan, he is not completely unknown and becomes the unknown person in Han Xin's mouth!

Han Xin called him that just to suppress his arrogance.

"It is precisely because I am a nobody that I am worthy of a nobody like the general." Zhang Lu was not afraid and said sarcastically, "The general is as timid as a mouse and shrinks his head like a turtle. He refused to fight with my Great Yan five times. Isn't that worthy of a nobody?"

"What a thief!"

"Bold!!"

Yang Yanzhao, who was standing by, drew out his sword with a bang and raised it high, intending to step forward and chop Zhang Lu down.

Seeing that the sword was about to fall, Han Xin stopped it and said, "Wait a minute."

Looking at Zhang Lu's expressionless face, Han Xin looked amused and asked, "Zhang Lu, aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"

"Hahaha."

Zhang Lu laughed as if he had heard a great joke, and said, "My Majesty said that the Grand Protector General is great and brave, wise and strong."

"You are as tall as the gods, as thick as the village wall, impervious to water and fire, and invisible to joy and anger."

"Therefore, not only will the general not vent his anger on the envoy, even if what I say is unpleasant, the general will be able to accept it calmly."

When the generals nearby heard Zhang Lu insulting Han Xin in this way, they became extremely angry and stared at Zhang Lu with wide eyes.

Looking at the posture, it seems as if he wants to eat Zhang Lu.

As the number one general in the Han army, Han Xin was, in a sense, the face of the Han army.

This person is insulting Han Xin here, but it is no different from insulting the Han Dynasty.

Among those present, whoever had a little temper, would want to chop this person into pieces right away.
