Xiao He and the commanders of the armies responded quickly. If others knew that these 30,000 people dared to fight against 400,000 people, they would probably think they were crazy and talking nonsense in broad daylight. Only they themselves knew that this was true.
"By the way, capture Yi Xiaochuan and Liu Bang. Don't kill them, bring them to me." Chen Fang gave the order. It would be meaningless if these two people were killed.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will arrange it right away." The messenger went down immediately to convey the military order.
"Okay, do as I say. Tomorrow, each AK operator will bring 1000 rounds of ammunition, and the rest of the gun operators will bring 500 rounds each. If you can't carry them, give them to the logistics personnel. Also, tell all the soldiers that as long as the enemy lays down their swords, they must not be killed or insulted. If anyone disobeys my orders, don't blame me for being rude."
Chen Fang said in a cold voice. He knew that most of them could not afford to eat. Why should he kill them all? Wouldn't it be better to leave some chance for survival?
"As ordered."
The officers replied in a serious tone that this was no joke, because Chen Fang had punished many people for bullying civilians and killing prisoners, and these people no longer dared to take it lightly.
The next morning.
"Your Majesty, the army has assembled and is ready. Would you like to say a few words?" Xiao He asked.
"Let's go. We must say a few words before we set off."
on the square.
The three armies plus the artillery units were arranged in four square formations, forming a dark mass and looking very imposing. They were waiting, waiting for the godlike man to give the order to set off.
A few minutes later, the tall and straight Chen Fang finally appeared. Tens of thousands of people became excited and looked up and shouted.
"Eliminate the bandits, unify the world, and build a new Ming Empire! Long live the Ming King."
"Eliminate the bandits, unify the world, and build a new Ming Empire! Long live the Ming King."
"Eliminate the bandits, unify the world, and build a new Ming Empire! Long live the Ming King."
Hiss, the sound of a horn came out.
"Unify the world and build a Ming Empire where all people are created equal. Go, I will be with you, and victory will definitely belong to us!"
"Long live the Ming King."
"Long live the Ming King."
"Long live the Ming King."
Led by the officers, the regiments left the square one by one, with every soldier's face full of determination and their morale as high as a volcano about to erupt. Although they were outnumbered, no soldier was afraid, because they knew that the weapons in their hands would definitely be able to defeat the hundreds of thousands of troops outside the city.
"The feeling of being superior is indeed as addictive as drugs. No wonder so many people in ancient times liked to rebel." Chen Fang murmured while riding on a horse.
"Gee, gee." Chen Fang rode his horse to the command center.
"Guards, hurry up," the guard leader said hastily. They had no combat missions, their only function was to protect Chen Fang. If anything went wrong, they would all be buried with him.
Outside the city of Xianyang, the flags of the Chu and Han armies were flying. Of course, the Chu army made up the majority, and they were lined up two miles outside the city, stretching as far as the eye could see without end.
Looking at the endless line of his men, Xiang Yu suddenly felt heroic and laughed.
"Gong Gong, do you know how the morale of my Chu army is? Haha." While speaking, Xiang Yu patted Liu Bang's shoulder, causing the latter great pain. Brother, you don't know the strength of my hand, do you?
"The army under the Duke of Chu is naturally full of vigor and vitality." Liu Bang said awkwardly. He could only endure it now. Otherwise, what else could he do? Liu Bang's men glared at each other. They would definitely exert their full strength on the battlefield later to let Xiang Yu see that they were not easy to mess with.
At this time, peacemaker Yi Xiao appeared.
"Brother Yu, it would be best for us to attack Xianyang first. I don't know why I always have a bad feeling." Yi Xiaochuan said with some concern.
"Xiaochuan, you worry too much. I don't believe that our army of hundreds of thousands cannot take down the city of Xianyang." Xiang Yu laughed.
"Yes, brother, you are too cautious." Liu Bang said without caring.
Yi Xiaochuan: “…”
On the other side, 60 troops also began to rush to the designated position in a dense manner. The Second Army that had arrived began to set up mortars. There were a total of mortars here, but the distance was still a bit close.
But they were not too far away from the Chu-Han Allied Forces, only two kilometers away.
Naturally, the actions of these 30,000 people could not be concealed from the coalition forces, and soon a messenger came to the big tent to report.
"Report, report, Lord Chu, Lord Pei! The 30,000 Ming troops in the city have begun to march towards us, and it seems that they are going to encircle us." The messenger said truthfully.
"How many people?" Xiang Yu didn't hear clearly at first and thought it was 300,000 people.
"More than 30,000 people?" The messenger spoke very loudly this time, and everyone in the tent could hear it clearly.
"Hahaha."
"Hahaha, this is so funny. A mere 30,000 people want to surround our 400,000 troops. That's simply outrageous." A Chu general said.
"It's more than just being arrogant. I think they are courting death. I, the Duke of Pei, request 10,000 soldiers to go out and fight and defeat the bandits in one fell swoop." Fan Kuai started to ask for orders directly from Liu Bang. Isn't this a soft persimmon that can be pinched?
Liu Bang also laughed a lot. Chen Fang was really arrogant. With only 30,000 troops against 400,000, he had no idea what he was thinking. After he captured Xianyang, he must snatch Lu Zhi away to avenge the humiliation he suffered that day.
Finally, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu agreed that Fan Kuai and Ying Bu would lead 50,000 troops to wipe out the troops that left the city in one fell swoop. As for Yi Xiaochuan's advice, no one took it seriously, mainly because of the difference in cognition.
"Order the cavalry to charge, and the infantry to follow, and wipe out this group of rampant criminals in one fell swoop."
"Drive, drive!"
At the command, Ying Bu was the first to rush out, and the thousands of cavalrymen behind him also accelerated, roaring excitedly and rushing towards the second army's position. Seeing this, Fan Kuai no longer hesitated, and immediately whipped his horse to catch up, fearing that he would lose any credit.
"kill!!"
"rush!!"
"Drive."
All of a sudden, all kinds of sounds were heard, the roars and the sound of horse hooves resounded through the sky, the ground was shaking and the speed was getting faster and faster. In less than a few breaths, they were only 800 meters away from the position. Tens of thousands of infantrymen behind them also rushed to catch up, shouting and killing.
"Report to the commander, the enemy has begun to charge." The messenger saluted and said.
The commander of the Second Army, Zhao You, was originally born a slave. After being accepted by Chen Fang, he was found to have a high talent for command, so he was promoted to commander of the Second Army. He was loyal to Chen Fang, and he would still be building roads without Chen Fang.
"Artillery fire, cut off the retreat!" Zhao You gave the order when he saw that the enemy had entered the range of the mortar.
When the order to attack was given, the artillerymen at the back, who had been impatient for a long time, immediately stuffed the shells into the muzzles of their guns, squatted down quickly and covered their ears.
"Bang bang bang bang bang bang."
A hundred shells rushed into the sky, spreading out in a fan shape in an arc, and slammed down on the heads of the coalition forces as they stared at them in confusion.
"BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM."
Amid the explosion, countless coalition forces were blown to pieces, with flesh and blood flying everywhere. The rubble and soil that were raised were mixed with a large number of mutilated corpses. After a round of bombing, the coalition forces were dumbfounded. They had witnessed the devastating explosion with their own eyes, and looking at the horrific scene of the broken corpses on the ground, everyone hesitated at this moment.
Including Ying Bu and Fan Kuai, neither of them had ever seen such a scene, after all, they were experienced in battle.
But the mortar did not give them time to think and soon began the second round of bombing.
"Boom boom boom boom boom boom." 100 mortars directly carried out saturation bombing, without having to worry about ammunition at all.
Now the coalition forces had only one thought in their minds, and that was to escape, and they had to escape immediately. Before a while had passed, the coalition forces suffered heavy losses, with casualties reaching more than 20,000 people, and they didn't even see the enemy.
Many of them have not received any military training. They basically joined the rebellion just to leave their names behind. They did not have much fighting power.
"Run away."
"Run, there's something weird here."
"God, please come to earth and save me."
Fan Kuai didn't care about that and just ran away. He didn't care about making any meritorious deeds. He was lucky to be alive. Fortunately, this guy was lucky and escaped alive. Ying Bu was not so lucky and died directly.
The gunshots were naturally heard in the allied camp. Yi Xiaochuan said to himself, "Oh no!" Listening to the constant noises, he knew that Chen Fang had a large number of artillery. If I had known this, why would I fight with you and would have surrendered directly.
"Fan Kuai, tell us what happened ahead." Liu Bang asked excitedly. The noise outside was quite loud.
"Gong Gong, we suffered heavy losses. We didn't even see the enemy, and our 50,000-strong army was wiped out." Fan Kuai cried. This was mainly because he was scared. This battle left an indelible shadow in Fan Kuai's heart.
"We actually lost?" Liu Bang couldn't believe it.
"Bullshit, tell me how Ying Bu is doing?" Xiang Yu pushed Liu Bang aside and asked. It was less than an hour, and 50,000 troops were gone just like that? Even 50,000 pigs couldn't catch them all.
"I think Ying Bu has died in the battle." In Fan Kuai's opinion, those who did not come back must have been killed in the explosion, because so many people died, who knows who it is.
This was the result of Chen Fang asking them to show mercy, otherwise if the remaining people opened fire at the same time, I'm afraid no one would be left alive.
The news of Ying Bu's death in battle made Xiang Yu very angry. He immediately assembled an army of 100,000 and prepared to wipe out this group of bandits in one fell swoop. It was really abominable that he actually killed his number one prize, Ying Bu.
Yi Xiaochuan in the corner suddenly said: "Brother Yu, listen to me, surrender! We can't defeat those tens of thousands of troops." Now he understood that Chen Fang simply wanted to wipe them out in one fell swoop. It seemed that these tens of thousands of people were already equipped with guns and cannons.
Eating them is no problem at all.
"Xiaochuan, did we hear you right? You asked us to surrender. Although our attack was just thwarted, we still have hundreds of thousands of troops!" Xiang Yu said. If Yi Xiaochuan had not saved his life, he would have been captured and chopped off long ago. Wouldn't this disrupt the morale of the army?
"It's up to you. That's all I have to say." Yi Xiaochuan went downstairs after saying that. He didn't want to stay here any longer. He knew that the coalition forces would definitely fail, and the final victory would belong to Chen Fang.
Liu Bang and Xiang Yu naturally would not listen to Yi Xiaochuan. You said to surrender, so we surrender. How is that possible? Isn't this nonsense?
Then the two men began to attack with their entire army.
The decisive battle then began, but what awaited the coalition forces was only failure. Hundreds of thousands of troops were surrounded by three legions in the center, which was a bit like the Battle of Changping.
"Don't be afraid, he has only 30,000 men. Can't we defeat him with our army of hundreds of thousands?" After saying this, Xiang Yu began to launch an attack.
As soon as he finished speaking, a piercing whistle resounded through the sky, like a horn from hell. Xiang Yu looked up in surprise and saw a cannonball as big as a bird flying over his head and hitting the back of the military camp.
Destruction has begun, and what awaits them will be hell.
Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom~
The sound of explosions continued. Five hundred mortars fired simultaneously from different directions to cut off their retreat, forming a powerful blockade that tightly surrounded the coalition forces.
"what!!!"
"Help! I... Boom~"
"Run, get out of the way!"
Chen Fang, who was watching the fight, saw this situation and knew that there was nothing he could do. He couldn't just stand in front of them and ask them to surrender, because if he did that, others would just think he was an idiot.
"Send the order, stop the artillery fire, and tell them to surrender."
"promise."
The messenger immediately went forward to convey Chen Fang's order.
People in the Allied camp suddenly discovered that the shelling had stopped and breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that at least they would not die immediately.
"The king has ordered that those who surrender will not be killed. If you do not surrender, the bombardment will continue."
"The king has ordered that those who surrender will not be killed. If you do not surrender, the bombardment will continue."
"The king has ordered that those who surrender will not be killed. If you do not surrender, the bombardment will continue."
When the soldiers heard these shouts, they would not hesitate and started shouting immediately.
"Surrender, we surrender, stop fighting, please don't kill us, wuwuwuwuwu"
"Surrender...We are willing to surrender."
Most people were willing to surrender, because everyone wanted to live. They rebelled just to have something to eat, and no one wanted to lose their life.
Chen Fang looked at the situation and nodded. It seemed that most people were still rational and would not go down a dead end. Of course, there would still be some people who would resist stubbornly, but they would be quickly eliminated.
"Xiao He, you should help capture the prisoners and follow the rules."
"promise."
Xiao He bowed and left.
Soon the soldiers were seen bringing Yi Xiaochuan and Liu Bang over. As for Xiang Yu, he was killed in the explosion because he rushed to the front.
"Chen Fang, what do you want to do? Do you know that you are changing history by doing this? I advise you to give the throne to Liu Bang." This is what Yi Xiaochuan said when they met. He believed that history cannot be changed anyway.
The soldiers who were escorting him immediately handed him two rifles, asking him how dare he speak to their king like that.
Yi Xiaochuan hasn't changed at all. He even still defends Liu Bang. Haha.
"Hello, Yi Xiaochuan. Long time no see."
"My Lord, I, Liu Bang, am willing to submit and serve you at my whim." Liu Bang knelt on the ground and said this. He was not like some idiot like Yi Xiaochuan, who was so rampant in someone else's territory.
"Brother, get up quickly. This world should be yours." Yi Xiaochuan said.
"Xiaochuan, please don't harm me. I am now wholeheartedly loyal to the King. Heaven and earth can witness my loyalty to the King." Liu Bang said, patting his chest.
"Tsk tsk, this Liu Bang is really as shameless as the legend says. Yi Xiaochuan tells you, it was this Liu Bang who sent you to be a eunuch back then. How are you thanking him now? Haha." Chen Fang laughed.
"What, it's you?" Yi Xiaochuan asked in surprise. He didn't expect that the person who sent him into the palace was his good brother, Liu Bang.
Liu Bang felt uncomfortable being looked at by Yi Xiaochuan and lowered his head in embarrassment.
"You are such an idiot. Don't you know that it was Liu Bang who got you drunk and sent you to the palace? You don't even need to think about it." After saying that, Chen Fang left. He didn't want to see these two people again and let them fight each other.
