Emperor Qin Ba Shi

Chapter 424 The battlefield must be Xin'an!
Hu Hai's eyes flickered, looking back and forth on the map.He knew that Qin Chu's struggle for hegemony in Sanchuan still needed a war, and in this war, due to the weak strength of the Great Qin Empire, the choice of the battlefield became very important.

The choice of the battlefield can even determine the outcome of a war, and this battle is related to the future of the Great Qin Empire, so Hu Hai will naturally be extremely concerned.

Because he knows that the general Wang Ben fights fiercely and steadily, and the emperor's army, which seems to be an imposing teacher, is actually unpredictable.

Once fighting on the battlefield, they are even more courageous and deep, and their desire to win is particularly strong.Looking at the entire Sanchuan County, Hu Hai believed that Wang Ben would definitely choose Xin'an for this battle.

Xin'an is an important military town in Sanchuan County, just on the border with Sanchuan County currently occupied by Western Chu.With Xin'an as the battlefield, Henan is a hundred miles away, and a hundred miles east will directly threaten Luoyang.

More importantly, Xin'an is surrounded by [-] elite cavalry of the Great Qin Empire, and most of the large siege equipment is stockpiled here. In fact, it is the second largest base camp of the Qin Army outside of Lantian.

The shorter the distance to attack the enemy, the greater the advantage of the Qin army.Once the army is all out, they can go straight to Luoyang, so that Xichu withdraws from Sanchuan County.

Doing this will greatly shake the world, and even more shock and deter the Western Chu country.

After all, Xin'an is the current bridgehead of the Great Qin Empire and the base of the Great Qin Cavalry, so using Xin'an as a battlefield is more beneficial to the Great Qin Empire.

Thoughts flickered in his mind, so Hu Hai thought in his heart that Xin'an would be the best battlefield to put pressure on Xichu.At this time, he believed that General Wang Ben would definitely choose this place.

It's just that Hu Hai forgot that Wang Ben, Marquis of Tongwu, was not him, and what seemed best to him might not be in line with Wang Ben's ideas.

……

……

"Your Majesty, the general sent troops to Wan County, Nanyang County, and the army has already moved out..." At this moment, Han Tan walked in from the door, but the news he brought made Hu Hai look complicated.

Hu Hai always thought that General Wang Ben would choose Xin'an, but unexpectedly Wang Ben chose Wan County, which made Hu Hai quite puzzled. Such a choice is really incredible.

Nanyang and Wanxian, which are the territory of Western Chu close to the Great Qin Empire, have only [-] troops in the garrison.Since the Linjiang Three Kingdoms withdrew their troops, the Chu army could no longer deter Wuguan.

Hu Hai couldn't figure out what the general Wang Ben was thinking about attacking Nanyang County with the army of Sanchuan County.

According to the news from Han Tan, General Wang Ben did not dispatch the main force when he went south this time, but only led his [-] elite cavalry.

Hu Hai knew in his heart that the general was going to surprise Nanyang County with [-] cavalry in all likelihood.

At this point, Hu Hai was a little surprised.Although the Qin army's combat power is outstanding, the main force of Western Chu is in Sanchuan County, which is only a stone's throw away from Nanyang County.

Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, only needs half a day to support him. Under such circumstances, how can he be sure of winning!
"Wang Ben, Wang Ben, taking the risk at such a critical point has put me in danger!" After a long silence, Hu Hai couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

He knew in his heart that the news that Wang Ben went south to attack Nanyang County would never be kept secret.Once the news is exposed, Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, will definitely attack Xin'an.

It's just that at this time, Emperor Qin Yingfei couldn't intervene, and couldn't!

In the Great Qin Empire, only Wang Ben was a general who had experienced the test of war. Not to mention that Wang Ben was in power, even in the field of military debate, Wang Ben was also a near-first-class military commander.

In any case, in the entire Great Qin Empire, Hu Hai has not found anyone who surpassed Wang Ben, Marquis of Tongwu, and Tai Wei Wei Liao's strategic ability is the best in the world.

Hu Hai did not underestimate Wei Liao's vision.To be able to teach the sharpest and peerless sword of this era is naturally extraordinary.

There must be a reason for Wang Ben to go south to Nanyang County, so that Wei Liao can take charge of the grain, grass and load.

The battle is imminent, if you speak up yourself, it will disrupt the deployment of Tong Wuhou Wang Ben, and once it is spread, it will undoubtedly disturb the morale of the army.

At this point, Hu Hai felt a little worried.At this critical juncture, what should we do if we fail!
Thinking of this, Hu Hai's heart turned cold - if this battle is defeated, it will become a turning point for the Great Qin Empire, and three years of painstaking efforts will be in vain.

After being silent for a long time, the gleam of light in my heart suddenly dimmed.Once defeated, the Great Qin Empire will immediately be troubled internally and externally. Even if it can form an alliance with Western Chu, it will have to pay a huge price.

It even cut off the chance of the Great Qin Empire going east in the future, and if this battle is defeated, Wang Ben, Marquis of Tongwu, will be in an embarrassing situation.

Since Wang Ben Hengkong, Marquis of Tongwu, was born, it can be said that in the Great Qin Empire, Wang Ben is a pillar different from Hu Hai. It is of great significance to the old Qin people and to the Qin army.

Moreover, Hu Hai is more aware that one general and one prime minister have always been the pillars of the country.Once Wang Ben, Marquis of Tongwu, is defeated, he will inevitably collapse like a tall building overnight.

In this way, the situation of the Great Qin Empire will be even more dangerous!

"Han Tan drafting a book——" Qin Emperor Hu Hai, who had been standing there for a long time, suddenly turned around, his eyes were firm, and there was a kind of madness that no matter how many people there are, he would go for it.

"Yes!" Han Tan spread out the bamboo slips and prepared everything: "Your Majesty, you are ready—!"

Hu Hai's eyes flashed, and he said in a deep voice: "It is said that I have returned to Xianyang, and three days later I will go to Luoyang to meet Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu—!"

After finishing speaking, Hu Hai pondered for a moment, and said: "After writing it, send an envoy to Luoyang City!"

"Yes—" CRRC Mansion Commander Han Tan quickly drafted the edict, copied the engraved slips and sealed them with ink pad within half an hour, turned around and walked out of the hall.

At dawn, three fast horses flew out of Xin'an and headed for the distant Luoyang like lightning.

……

"Your Majesty, the envoy has been dispatched, and the situation is calm at present..." Dun Ruo and Han Tan came hand in hand, with a trace of relief in their expressions.

"The battle between Qin and Chu has just begun!" Hu Hai looked solemn, and looked at the civil and military ministers present, and said: "The news of the general's attack on Wan County in Nanyang will be known to the world sooner or later!"

"It won't be more than three days at the latest. Once Xichu gets the news, with the character of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, he will definitely attack Xin'an!"

Speaking of this, Hu Hai's eyes flashed a look of solemnity: "The most elite iron cavalry in the army, although the general is going south, the current army is mainly composed of cavalry!"

"What's your plan, dear friends, to teach me?"

……

Hu Hai knew in his heart that it was important for General Wang Ben to go south to Nanyang County, but the biggest premise was that the Great Qin Empire could keep Xin'an.

Only when Xin'an is still in the hands of the Qin army, then Hu Hai can rely on Nanyang County to threaten Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, so that he will not be at a disadvantage in the next competition.
