I switched allegiance to Zhang Han and rebuilt the Qin Dynasty; Liu Bang was heartbroken.

Li Xin stood there watching everyone for a while, and after a long time, a gust of wind blew by, and Li Xin felt himself gradually coming back to his senses.

"Who are those two generals?"

Liu Bang had many generals under his command, but only a handful were capable of leading troops independently.

“Chai Wu leads one battalion, and Wang Ling leads two battalions.”

"The message they sent earlier indicated that they have been avoiding battle until now, and even after fighting the barbarians, they still have seven or eight thousand soldiers."

Li Xin gasped, his expression turning incredibly strange.

Liu Bang wanted to fight to the death, but he was already a dead fish.

There were only forty or fifty thousand soldiers in total, of whom one or two tenths were spies.

Zhao Long asked with a smile, "General Li, is there anything else you're worried about?"

Li Xin shook his head: "I just feel a bit sorry for Liu Bang. He suffered heavy losses, and even his own troops began to turn against him. It must have been really frustrating for him to be the King of Han."

After driving away Zhao Long, he was tricked by Lü Matong. Then, after entering Xieyu Pass, future Qin history would surely record: He humiliated the prince of Qin, was hated by the generals of Qin, and was deserted by his subordinates. In the Bashu region, he was destroyed by the prince.

In short, this perfectly encapsulates the tragic world Liu Bang experienced over the past few months.

"Liu Bang is not worthy of sympathy. He brought all this upon himself. He became extremely arrogant after only a few days as the King of Han."

"He wants to negotiate peace with the Qin army now; he's just afraid."

"If he had sought peace with Xiang Yu instead of being so stubborn, how could Xiang Yu have possibly supported the Qin army?"

Han Xin sneered.

Those who served in the Han army know just how arrogant Liu Bang was after entering Guanzhong.

The reason he initially favored Liu Bang was because Liu Bang was indeed much better than other warlords; at least he wouldn't indiscriminately kill innocent people.

In retrospect, Liu Bang and those feudal lords were all the same.

Everything he did was just a pretense. Once Zhao Long left, Liu Bang could no longer suppress the arrogance within him.

After serving as the King of Han for a few days, he truly felt like an ancient feudal lord, powerfully ruling a country and able to reign supreme over the world.

In reality, Liu Bang had no foundation whatsoever; apart from this army, he had nothing.

Li Xin smiled in agreement: "Yes, this army is Liu Bang's lifeline."

It's just that fate has a traitor among us.

Li Xin pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "With these two generals, the Qin army can advance or retreat as needed."

"Complete control!"

As the art of war says: "If ten times their strength, surround them; if five times, attack them; if twice, fight them!"

"Given the Qin army's inferior numbers, I strongly suggest that we adopt a defensive strategy instead of an offensive one."

Zhao Long, Han Xin, and the others all laughed.

In terms of numbers, the Qin army was indeed at a disadvantage.

Even if all the soldiers from various parts of Hanzhong came, the total number of soldiers would not exceed 13,000.

Even excluding the troops of Chai Wu and his men, the Han army still outnumbers the Qin army.

However, the initiative is now in the hands of the Qin army. Letting Liu Bang walk into their trap is the right strategy.

"The governor is right."

"Even if Liu Bang wanted to fight to the death, with Xiahou Ying in our hands, he would have to put on a show and attack the Yi people."

"We can divide and destroy the Han army."

Han Xin also smiled, his teeth shining brightly.

The group returned to their meeting place and began discussing the specific battle plan.

The time for the decisive battle against the Han army had arrived, and everyone was extremely excited.

After a moment of silence, Zhang Han spoke: "Do you all still remember Xiang Yu's Battle of Julu?"

"remember."

This is an epic tragedy for the Qin army.

Was it fate that led to the downfall of the Qin Dynasty?

No, it was a man-made disaster.

It was the tyranny of the Second Emperor that broke the backbone of the Qin people, and it was also the sudden and violent force unleashed by the allied forces of the world.

"At that time, my strength was actually enough to fight against the allied forces of the feudal lords. They were able to win because Xiang Yu sent General Pu with more than 10,000 men to continuously attack the supply lines between me and Wang Li, which led to the severing of our communication!"

"That's why Xiang Yu later dared to break the cauldrons and sink the boats."

"Liu Bang has always wanted to compete with Xiang Yu, so let's give Liu Bang a chance to attack the Qin army's supply lines!"

Zhang Han's finger tapped heavily on Madao Pass.

Less than 50 li from Liuba City is an abandoned ancient Shu pass, behind which lies the Nanshui River.

If Liu Bang were to attack, the Qin army would block the city gates, and the Han army would be trapped like turtles in a jar.

"Gentlemen, is this plan feasible?"

Everyone burst into laughter: "General, what a brilliant plan!"

Li Xin clasped his hands in a fist salute, his voice resounding: "This plan will surely annihilate the Han army and secure Hanzhong!"

This is the Qin general who almost swept across the world.

The supreme general of the Great Qin has never been weak!

They have failed, they have been betrayed and are afraid, but they have never been weak!

Once Liu Bang falls into the trap, the Han army will be unable to turn the tide.

"Alright, everyone, get ready, the final battle is about to begin!"

"Slay the Han army and pacify Hanzhong!"

……

After Zhao Long left, Li Xin pulled Zhang Han and the others aside to learn about the situation, and then he gasped in shock.

"I never imagined that you, young master, had such a background?"

"However, having endured so many hardships, once you return to Qin, you will surely be like the wise rulers of old, restoring Qin to its former glory!"

All the hardships may have been for Zhao Longzhi's present moment.

A brilliant and ingenious plan to suppress Liu Bang.

He recalled that the First Emperor had once been exiled to the State of Zhao, where he suffered countless humiliations before returning to Qin and establishing an unparalleled empire.

This prince, who carries the blood of both Qin and Zhao, has experienced such a turbulent life and suffered countless humiliations in the Han army. His return now, like that one, is surely the destiny of the Great Qin!

Zhao Long has actually gone back to have a heart-to-heart talk with his little maid.

The maidservant served Zhao Long attentively: "Young master, you must be tired from your journey."

Zhao Long squinted his eyes contentedly: "I'm not having a very hard time."

From the moment he arrived in this era, he already possessed a fortune of millions. When he joined Liu Bang's army, Zhao Long was never short of what he was entitled to enjoy.

It wasn't exactly humiliation, but rather anger at Liu Bang's arrogance!

He slapped Liu Bang hard in return.

And it came quickly and ruthlessly.

The Han army is almost at its breaking point!

Moreover, the Qin army's growth was largely thanks to Liu Bang.

Objectively speaking, Liu Bang was a good person.

……

Han army camp: "Damn it, the Qin traitors are going too far!"

Liu Bang was enraged, and after a series of blows, he developed a high fever.

His face turned as red as a monkey's.

However, Liu Bang knew he couldn't afford to fall.

Xiahou Ying was still waiting for him to rescue him, and the Han army still needed to break through the encirclement and establish an unparalleled achievement once again.

"Yes, Qin traitor is truly a bastard."

The generals also spoke up, continuing to curse, but their voices were no longer as frantic as before.

Who would have thought that Liu Bang's grand strategy was so easily seen through by the Qin army's strategist?

The fighting spirit that everyone had managed to muster was rapidly dissipating!

Whenever the Qin state faced a crisis, it always managed to produce capable ministers who could restore its strength.

It's unbelievable that even after the Qin state was destroyed, a capable person could still rise from the ashes.

So many famous generals of ancient times couldn't defeat the chosen ministers of Qin, could they really?

Moreover, these chosen ministers were all utterly shameless. For example, when Shang Yang attacked the State of Wei, he invited many of Wei's military friends to a meeting on the battlefield, but then turned around and wiped out all of Wei's civil and military officials, leading to a great defeat for the Wei army!

A shameless man leads a pack of wolves and tigers.

Under such absolute power, even these once invincible Han generals began to doubt themselves.

The Qin army was truly brilliant; in just three or four months, they had constructed a massive net for the Han army.

The Han army seemed to have run out of ideas.

"Attacking the Yi people is definitely not an option. Going deep into the mountains to hunt them down would be tantamount to courting death."

"We only need to attack the Qin army, leave the fortified pass of Liuba, and have enough soldiers and provisions!"

"Now, who can turn the tide?"

Liu Bang looked up at the sky, his eyes filled with tears.

Wang Ling took a deep breath, clasped his hands in a fist and said, "Your Majesty, I have a plan that can defeat the Qin traitors!"
