Chapter 987 The Battle of Julu(2/2)

Shuma continued: "In the south of Julu, there are more than 200,000 troops of Zhang Han, of which tens of thousands are elite troops in Guanzhong, and the rest are prisoners of Mount Li. Zhang Han is responsible for protecting the food route and blocking the bandits coming from the south. Our food comes from Guanzhong and Luoyang. None of the thieves in Guandong are Zhang Han's opponents, and Xiang Liang was even killed by Zhang Han."

"In other words, the Qin army has 400,000, of which about 100,000 are elite."

Chu Tian roughly understood the strength of the Qin army camp in the Battle of Julu.

Although the Qin army's generals did not have an advantage, the Qin army had a large number of troops.

Zhang Han was the last pillar at the end of Qin Dynasty. He suppressed the rebel army and the uncle of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, fought with Zhang Han in Dingtao, but was defeated and died.

Zhang Han is also unlucky. If he had not met Xiang Yu, Han Xin, and Zhang Han were also first-class generals. Unfortunately, Zhang Han was defeated by Xiang Yu and Han Xin one after another, becoming the stepping stone for the two.

Zhang Han's most famous deed was to organize prisoners in Mount Li and defeat the peasant uprising army at the end of the Qin Dynasty that threatened Guanzhong.

Of course, Zhang Han has summoned tens of thousands of Guanzhong Qin troops, and this group of Qin troops is the real main force of the Lishan Army.

At present, there are 400,000 Qin troops in the Chutian camp!

There are also many rebels on the opposite side. The only legion that dares to confront the Qin army is Xiang Yu.

If Xiang Yu could win repeatedly, the rest of the rebels might also join the war.

How to defeat Xiang Yu and how strong Xiang Yu are, these are problems that Chu Tian could not solve for a while.

Fifty thousand Xia troops approached Julu, and the Xia troops could already see the faint city walls of Julu City and the black Qin army camp.

The troops brought by Chu Tian was only one-quarter of Wang Li's 200,000 Great Wall Army!

In addition to the Great Wall Army, Zhang Han’s Lishan Criminal Army also has 200,000!

It was hard for Chu Tian to imagine that such a huge military force would be defeated by Xiang Yu.

This also shows Xiang Yu's terror from the side.

Shujian said: "The remnants of Zhao State were besieged in Julu City, Zhao King Zhao Xie, Prime Minister Zhang Er, and tens of thousands of soldiers. To the north of Julu, there were tens of thousands of troops of Zhao State General Chen Yu. There were also Qi, Yan army, and many soldiers and horses around Chen Yu's camp. However, they were just a group of mobs, not to be afraid. As long as they were killed, they would be frightened and defeated without attacking them."

Chu Tian didn't doubt Shujian's words.

The idiom "watching on the wall" comes from the Battle of Julu. The princes of all walks of life have nothing to do with them and are hanging high. Only Xiang Yu rushed to the front and challenged the invincible Qin army in the world.

So although there are the troops of Zhao, Qi and Yan in the north of Julu and the troops of Chu in the south, in fact, the only troops of Xiang Yu in the Qin army had to deal with.

In addition, there are the legions brought by the princes such as Tongque who came from the main world and Liu Bei and others.

If Xiang Yu's battle is unfavorable, the NPC rebels in the north dare not act rashly.

On the contrary, if Xiang Yu defeated the Qin army, the rebels in the north of Julu would intervene in the battlefield and the Qin army was in danger.

When the 200,000 Great Wall Army saw the arrival of 50,000 Xia troops, they all threw surprise eyes.

Even the Qin army was very jealous of the Iron Cavalry's horses and armor brought by Chu Tian.

Chu Tian’s 20,000 Iron Cavalry are all high-level troops, and they are equipped with the best war horses and armor.

Chu Tian stationed troops outside Julu City.

The princes in the north of Julu were shocked when they saw the Qin army obtaining a brave and good warrior, and they did not dare to act rashly.

When Wang Li met Chu Tian, ​​Chu Tian was able to see Wang Jian's grandson.

Chu Tian had no respect for Wang Li, because even Wang Jian was all under Chu Tian's command.

"Soon, as long as you attack Julu, kill King Zhao, and pass his head to Luoyang, then all the rebels will be frightened and the world will be settled. I, Wang Li, also want to make unparalleled achievements like my ancestors."

Wang Li regarded the uprising at the end of Qin as his opportunity to make contributions.

If the Qin Empire could be recreated, Wang Li's contribution would probably be the same as Wang Jian and Wang Ben.

Chu Tian just smiled slightly, asked Wang Li for various supplies, and at the same time brought the relationship closer.

Unlike the Battle of Kunyang, Chu Tian could trust Liu Xiu. However, Chu Tian could not trust Wang Li in the Battle of Julu.

Not to mention Wang Li, even Wang Ben may not be able to stop Xiang Yu in the Battle of Julu, and Wang Jian is also reluctant. Because in "Lord", Xiang Yu is a king and a saint-level general.

The battle of Julu is much more difficult than the battle of Kunyang, and it is not easy to break the deadlock.

"The south of Julu is Zhang Han's 200,000 army, and the south is the Chu army. If Xiang Yu's Chu army burns his boats north, then it will definitely start a war with Zhang Han's 200,000 army first. The Chu army cannot easily achieve its goal."

Chu Tian was on the snow and used his branches to draw a rough topographic map.

Xia Tianliang, Wei Qing and Sun Bin discussed a plan to break the situation with Chu Tian.

As for Li Guang and Dian Wei, Chu Tian did not expect them to break the deadlock.

The battlefield situation of the Battle of Julu is very clear.

Wang Li 200,000 Great Wall Army besieged Julu and at the same time dealt with the princes in the north.

Zhang Han's 200,000 Lishan troops protected the food route and dealt with the princes in the south.

The Qin army's grain was transported through water, and arrived in Heluo from Guanzhong and Heluo.

Sun Bin said: "I think Wang Li, Shejian, Su Jiao and others are far inferior to the lord and General Wei Qing. It is better to try to undermine their military power and lead the Qin army to fight against the Chu army."

"Insulting Wang Li's military power? This is not easy."

Sun Bin proposed a plan to replace Wang Li and Zhang Han and command the Qin army to fight against the Chu army.
