Originally, he had discovered that Fan Kuai was infuriated by the Han army and was trapped by the Han army. Han Xin finally confirmed that he had encountered an opponent this time. Not only did he understand strategies and tactics, his defense deployment was almost impeccable, and his methods were also extremely sinister and vicious. He was good at taking advantage of human weaknesses. At the same time, he was also very clear about the internal situation of the Nanyang Army. The degree of danger was so high that Han Xin had never seen him in his life.

If the trick of surrendering that led to the partial defeat of the Western Chu army at the Wu City was also the opponent's work, then the opponent would undoubtedly be even more terrible, because he was not only very clear about the internal contradictions of the Liu Xiang coalition, but also very good at using such contradictions to take things from it. In the subsequent war, as long as there was a little bit of dirty between the Nanyang Army and the Western Chu Army, the opponent might be able to exploit loopholes and lead to immeasurable dangerous consequences.

Han Xin didn't know who the opponent was, but Han Xin knew very well that this opponent might not be as good as him in tactical use, but when it comes to cunning and cunning, he might have to take advantage of him.

Fortunately, although the enemy was mysterious and terrible, Han Xin had never been afraid of anyone in war. Even though the strength advantage of Liu Xiang's coalition was not great, the Han army had a great advantage in geographical advantages and could not hold on. At the same time, the Nanyang army had to meet Xiang Yu's harsh requirements and adopted offensive tactics to put pressure on the Han army on the southern front, so that the Han army on the southern front could not come out to reinforce other battlefields. This did not stump Han Xin. After careful consideration, Han Xin quickly formulated an offensive tactic for the Nanyang army.

Han Xin's tactics are actually very simple, which is to target the many small roads in the Songshan area, and the Han army deployed a certain amount of troops to guard each road, allowing the Nanyang army to divide into multiple teams and attack multiple routes to attack the small forces of the Han army stationed on each road.

The defense line of the Han army's Songshan Mountain was also covered with bloody storms. In the mountains, forests, streams, deep streams, and hills, as long as there were Han soldiers stationed, you could see the Nanyang Army and Han soldiers holding spears and shouting and fighting everywhere. As long as the soldiers of the Nanyang Army were found in a team of 200, they would immediately launch an attack without hesitation. If one team could not fight, they would join the second team. If the two teams could not succeed in joining forces, they would decisively join the third team until they defeated the Han army and ran away. In short, they would force the Han army to bleed while luring more troops into the small road to fight.

This seemingly clumsy tactic made Xiang Kang very uncomfortable. In the face of such a dangerous enemy, the complex terrain destined Xiang Kang to closely monitor every path, and could not give Han Xin any chance to win by surprise. It also destined that Xiang Kang must continue to invest his troops and compete with the Nanyang Army for control of the mountain path. However, without having time to establish a strong fortification to guard the Han army, the Han army could only fight on every path, be forced to consume, and the number of casualties rose sharply.

The Nanyang Army could afford such a bloody war of attrition. After successfully taking over the hinterland of Yingchuan, the 30,000 Nanyang Army had already expanded its troops to more than 40,000 when it set out, and could continue to obtain cannon fodder supplies from the hinterland of Yingchuan. At the same time, the partial divisions of the Western Chu Army, which had excellent combat effectiveness, helped to share the pressure on the front. Han Xin could safely use more than half of the Nanyang army for mountain attrition wars, and always occupy a local advantage in military strength. If the Han army could not bear such consumption and launched a counterattack from the front, it would still meet Han Xin's thoughts and give Liu Xiang the opportunity to launch a decisive battle.

Of course, the military strength is not very disadvantageous, and Xiang Kang can also draw the Han army reserve team led by Zheng Bu from the city of Suo to vigorously strengthen the mountain road battlefield. However, Xiang Kang is very clear that this is probably one of Han Xin's goals. As long as he does this, he may give Han Xin ant a chance to chew bones and gradually devour his reserve troops. If he does not enhance the mountain road guards, he will only be beaten. If the mountain road guards are strengthened, they will give the enemy more forced consumption opportunities. The dilemma is causing Xiang Kang to be extremely troubled.

It was not until this time that Xiang Kang truly understood the terrible things of Han Xin, and he also became more and more hoped to capture the thief and capture the king first. He quickly took away this dangerous enemy and reversed the current passive situation of his army. The result was quite good. At the critical moment, the scouts of the Han army finally found out that Xiang Yu sent Xiang Bo to the Songshan battlefield as a military supervisor by grabbing their tongues. As a result, the situation was just reported to Xiang Kang, and Xiang Kang immediately applauded and said, "Successfully, our forged letter to Han Xin really made my brother suspicious of Liu Ji, so he sent my foolish Uncle Ji to supervise the army."

"King, I'm afraid it may not be good news." Long Qi continued to report with great concern: "The scout of the Western Chu thief Army we caught also told the King of Western Chu that he also sent Li Zuoche, the Situ Guangwu Jun of Henan to the battlefield of Songshan to help your Uncle Ji supervise the army. But I remember that General Zhou once told us that this Guangwu Jun Li Zuoche is also a very dangerous opponent, and it is almost impossible to succeed in using tricks against him."

Hearing that Li Zuoche, who was no less dangerous than Han Xin, also came, Xiang Kang was not surprised but happy, and applauded again: "Good opportunity, killing two birds with one stone. At the same time, he took away the troubled opponents Li Zuoche and Han Xin!"

…………

On the same day when Xiang Kang finally counterattacked, on the battlefield of the mountain road, the Nanyang Army once again achieved the results that both Liu Laosan and Han Xin were very satisfied. At the cost of more than 300 casualties, they successfully killed and captured more than 500 Han soldiers at the cost of more than 300 casualties. In the past few days, they had caused more than 2,000 casualties to the Han army, which was no less than winning a medium-scale field battle. How many explanations were made to Master Xiang Bo Xiang who came to supervise the army - after all, doing so would have effectively restrained the Han army on the southern front?

"Why are you talking about thieves so stupid?"

With pride, Liu Laosan laughed at the stupid behavior of the Han army in front of Han Xin and Pei County friends and said, "I know that we have to send troops to the mountain road every day to deal with the bandits guarding the small road, but every day we just left, we immediately sent troops into the small road and waited for death. We dared not increase our strength or voluntarily give up the control of the small road."

Cao Shen and Zhou Bo and other friends in Pei County laughed together and agreed, but Han Xin remained silent and said: "The Han thieves are not stupid. On the contrary, the Han thieves are very rational and smart. They know that the terrain of Songshan is complex and suitable for surprises. Once they give up monitoring and control of the path, they are equivalent to binding their hands and feet for us to fight. Only by strictly controlling every road of all sizes and big or small at all costs will we not give us a chance to win by surprise. Once more troops are added, we will give us more opportunities to consume their troops in the field. Therefore, the Han thieves would rather suffer certain losses every day than adjust their established tactics."

"This is the best." Liu Laosan said carelessly: "Destroying hundreds of bandits every day can not only block the old man Xiang Bo, but also accumulate a small amount and gradually consume the strength of the bandits. When we make a breakthrough in other battlefields, the bandits are forced to make adjustments, and it will be much easier for us to break the bandits."

Han Xin nodded, and became more grateful that he followed the right person. He was able to firmly implement the tactics he proposed, and understand and understand his tactical intentions. Such a boss is not so easy to find - Feng Zhong used to just obey Han Xin's words, but he could not understand Han Xin's tactical intentions by himself.

At this time, it was getting late. Seeing that Han Xin and his friends in Pei County had already finished their supper, Liu Laosan quickly arranged the night defense work of the Nanyang Army, and then ordered the ban to be dispersed and the generals of the Nanyang Army returned to the ban to rest. During this period, he saw Han Xin sneezing, Liu Laosan also took off his cloak and forced it to Han Xin, cursing and asking Han Xin to wear more clothes in the future and never get any disease in the cold.

Putting on Liu Laosan's cloak, Han Xin returned to his tent, instead of lying down to rest immediately, sat under the oil lamp, turned on his own family's "The Art of War" and studied hard on the lamp, and repeatedly studied the chapters that he had already memorized, searching for inspiration from it, and thinking about how to deal with the enemy in front of him. However, halfway through the Nine Changes, the personal soldiers suddenly entered the tent to report and said, "General, you have seen that mother-in-law come again before, and said that there is something important, please be sure to meet him again."

"No." Han Xin ordered casually: "Tell him to leave immediately, and tell him clearly, and dare to come again in the future, be careful of his head."

The personal soldiers took the order and left, but after a while, the personal soldiers returned to the tent and held a letter to Han Xin, saying, "General, according to your order, the villain has driven the man away. However, when the man left, he asked the villain to bring this letter to you, and said it was a letter written by King Xiang Kang of Han. Please be sure to check it out."

"Xiang Kang's thief's handwritten letter?" Han Xin was stunned. When he looked up subconsciously, he saw that the letter was written directly on a white silk thread and was not sealed. Han Xin suddenly complained in his heart and said to himself: "It's trouble. Now I can't prove whether I have read this letter."

While complaining in his heart, Han Xin quickly asked again: "Have you seen this letter by others?"

"The general forgives his crime, and has been read by General Lu Ze (Liu Lao San's brother-in-law)." The personal soldier answered truthfully, saying: "When the villain went to drive away that person, General Lu Ze was also next to him, so he asked for the letter and read it first."

"Treacher! It turns out that it's extremely treacherous! I've known for a long time that our king is very close to the army, and deliberately sends people to deliver letters at night, and deliberately does not put them on the envelope. It's obvious that he wants others to see the content of the letter! It's so despicable that you are so sinister that it's a pinnacle!"

He cursed Xiang Kang in his heart again. In order to know the content of the letter, he would not be lost by Xiang Kangyin in the future and did not know how he died. Han Xin had no choice but to take the letter and read it carefully. Before he could finish reading the letter, Han Xin's hair stood up one after another, screaming in pain, "It's over! This time, I can't explain it clearly even if I have a hundred mouths!"

The content of Xiang Kang's letter was actually not very complicated. He just told Han Xin in a big way that he had received a reliable insider report and knew that Han Xin wrote a letter of informing Xiang Yu and secretly told Xiang Yu about the truth about Hangu Pass. In order to instigate the relationship between Xiang Yu and Liu Laosan, he wanted to use Xiang Yu's hands to get rid of Liu Laosan and take the opportunity to replace Liu Laosan, which led to Xiang Yu sending Xiang Bo to the battlefield of Songshan as a military supervisor, ready to kill Liu Laosan at any time and let Han Xin take the initiative to take over Liu Laosan in charge of the Nanyang army.

Then Xiang Kang said, "Brother Han Xin, you can tell yourself earlier if you want to be the King of Nanyang." As long as you, Han Xin help me kill the Western Chu army partial division led by Liu Laosan and Gongao, I will not only immediately give you the King of Nanyang, but also give you the land of Yingchuan, and will also send troops to help you take down the land of Nanyang and become the veritable King of Nanyang. But if you refuse to agree, then I'm sorry, don't blame me for sending someone to report to Liu Laosan and tell Liu Laosan directly about your betrayal and slander him, so that Liu Laosan can take action to deal with you!

With a bang, he punched the case in front of him with a heavy punch. Han Xin suddenly remembered the stupid words that Master Xiang Xiang said to him before. He also immediately understood that a so-called informant letter must have been sent to Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu believed it, so he suddenly sent Master Xiang Xiang to the front line to supervise the military and also hinted that he was ready to replace Liu Laosan with him at any time! - If Liu Laosan's performance could not satisfy Master Xiang, maybe Master Xiang would really do such a thing!

Knowing that he had fallen into a trap and had no choice but to quickly bring a letter and hurried to Liu Laosan's tent to ask for a meeting. However, after entering the tent, Han Xin wanted to cry and see that Jiang Zhong, a minor official of the Han army who had met him, was still in Liu Laosan's tent at this moment. Lu Ze, the general of the Nanyang Army who led his army tonight, was of course next to him.

After taking the initiative to present the letter written by Xiang Kang to Liu Laosan, Han Xin said helplessly: "King, my subordinates know that he has been trapped and know that even if I have a hundred mouths, it is absolutely impossible for me to make it clear. But my subordinates can swear to the heavens that if I really wrote a letter to the King of Chu in the West and slander you, I can ask the heavens to drop thunder and kill the ministers to death!"

"Hahahahaha!" Liu Lao San laughed out loud and said with a loud laugh: "General, you don't need to make any poisonous oath. What kind of virtue is Xiang Kang's little traitor? I don't know what rumors and slander and sow discord have always been his specialty! His so-called letters, let alone a sentence, is just a word, and I will not believe it!"

After laughing, Liu Laosan first helped Han Xin up with his own hands, then patted Han Xin's shoulder and said, "Don't take it to heart. I definitely trust you! Don't worry, go back and rest. We will go to see Master Xiang together tomorrow, explain it in front of him, and clearly tell him that the bullshit letters are all fake. It was Xiang Kang's child who forged it to frame you. Please destroy the bullshit letters in person! In the future, we will continue to work together to defeat the thieves!"

Han Xin nodded and agreed, thanking Liu Laosan sincerely, but in his heart, Han Xin asked to himself with great concern: "The king really believes in me so much? Will he suspect that I swear to quibble because I accidentally leaked the news?"

Han Xin's concern was right, because he had just said goodbye and left, and Lu Ze immediately asked Liu Laosan: "Master, you really trust Han Xin so much? What if he deliberately made some bullshit and swearing to quibble?"

"Shut up! Of course I can trust Han Xin!"

Liu Laosan scolded him sternly, but in his heart, Liu Laosan had to ask himself: "Do I really dare to trust Han Xin's son with confidence? This little boy is not a person who is willing to be a subordinate. What if he really has the ambition to replace me? If he really has this ambition, whether it is Xiang Yu or Xiang Kang, he will be sure to help him do this!"

In addition, he is neither a time traveler nor a God's perspective. Liu Laosan has to consider another important issue. Why did Xiang Kang so deliberately distract himself from the relationship between himself and Han Xin? Xiang Kang is far away in Xingyang and does not understand the situation on the front line. Han Xin is just a honorary general and has no military power. Even if he succeeds in disagreement, he will only use his own hands to kill Han Xin, which has no impact on the battle situation on the southern front. Why does Xiang Kang need to spend so much effort to do such a thing?

"Is it true that Han Xin's little clerk's rumor is reported?"

In the end, Liu Laosan had to feel such suspicion. Then, there was even a context in Liu Laosan's heart. That day, the Han army failed to surrender Han Xin, not because Han Xin was really loyal to him, but because Han Xin's ambition was far greater than the Han army imagined. At the same time, Han Xin secretly reported to Xiang Yu, trying to use Xiang Yu to let him replace him, the King of Nanyang. Xiang Kang learned about this matter through careful investigation and then generously satisfied Han Xin's ambition, so he sent an envoy to persuade Han Xin to surrender tonight...

Don’t say it’s exaggerating. If Liu Laosan really felt at ease with Han Xin, he would not have stole Han Xin’s seal twice in history and forcibly deprived Han Xin of his military power.

Of course the matter was not over. The next morning, Liu Laosan fulfilled his promise and personally brought Han Xin and Han army messenger Jiang Zhong to the Western Chu army's side division camp. He explained in front of Xiang Bo, but Master Xiang didn't believe it at all. He also suspected that it was because he accidentally leaked the news, so Han Xin denied that it was not his secret to Xiang Yu. In addition, Master Xiang Bo was extremely concerned about one thing, that is, who was the one who leaked such a secret matter to the Han army?

It’s not to mention that under the coercion and temptation of Master Xiang Bo Xiang, the Han army clerk Jiang Zhong, who delivered a letter to Han Xin, gave an important information and said: “General, when we General Long wanted to deliver the letter, we accidentally said that it was the information provided by the people around Master Xiang Bo Xiang of the Western Chu State to the King of Han.”

"The people around me?!"

Master Xiang's hair also stood up, and when he subconsciously continued to ask questions, Jiang Zhong could no longer provide more useful information. He just said that Long Qi was sending the letter to him with confidence, so he casually said that it was the people around Master Xiang who leaked the news and reported Han Xin's informing to Xiang Kang. The other dragons did not say much, and Jiang Zhong did not dare to ask too much. When Master Xiang looked at his side with suspicious eyes, Li Zuoche, who was not the minister of the Western Chu army, knew the inside story, of course, became the target of Master Xiang's focus!

Facing Master Xiang's suspicious eyes, Li Zuoche of course immediately understood that he was suspected, but he had no way to argue. He could only maintain the posture of observing his nose and his nose, and dare not speak again, so as not to be more suspicious by Master Xiang Bo, who is as smart as a pig. This is not a joke.

Finally, after thinking about it, because he was extremely suspicious that Han Xin was forced to deny it. In order to protect the whistleblower, Master Xiang Bo Xiang not only did not take out the letter to confront Han Xin, but also denied the existence of the letter. Han Xin and Liu Laosan also understood his thoughts, but they had no choice but to choose to admit Master Xiang Bo Xiang's casual explanation - all of this was Xiang Kang's shameless trick, the purpose was to alienate the intimate relationship between the Western Chu army and the Nanyang army, so that the Western Chu army and the Nanyang army could no longer continue to work together.

Of course, strictly speaking, Master Xiang Bo and Master Xiang's judgment is definitely not wrong. Among the targets of Xiang Kang's poisonous plan, not only Liu Laosan and Han Xin, but also the Western Chu army who wanted to use cannon fodder and the Nanyang army who was unwilling to be cannon fodder.

But on the surface, Han Xin knew that the matter was not over. Then, as expected, in the afternoon of that day, Liu Laosan called him and made a secret conversation with him with heartfelt intentions. He swears that he would definitely trust Han Xin, but there is no way. Master Xiang Bo, who is as smart as a pig, is still watching Dan Dan. It is possible that Han Xin will really replace him at any time. In order to avoid accidents and unexpected consequences, Liu Laosan could only ask Han Xin to temporarily leave the front line and go to the rear to organize people to supervise the transportation of food and grass. This can not only ensure that there is no shortage of food and grass on the front line, but also protect Han Xin himself and not give the treacherous Han army the opportunity to continue to use Han Xin to make a fuss.

It is clear that Liu Laosan is still not at ease with him enough, and is afraid that Master Xiang will really use him to replace him. In order to prove his innocence, Han Xin calmly accepted Liu Laosan's request and left the front line that day, leading a rear army back to the rear to organize people to transport food and grass. Before leaving, Han Xin repeatedly reminded Liu Laosan, saying that there were capable people hidden in the Han army on the southern front, and that Liu Laosan must be careful in using troops, and never take any tricks, and it is best to continue to maintain a confrontation.
