The video takes us to ancient times; Li Er transforms into the Tongtian Emperor of Shu Han.

Chapter 736 One dares to boast, and one actually dares to believe it.

"Why does it feel like Emperor Gaozu is going to pull some crazy moves?"

Look at Liu Bang's words of encouragement and his attitude of not caring about the future.

He looked somewhat familiar.

The more I look at it, the more it resembles Xiang Yu, who took the art of military strategy to its extreme.

"Let me tell you, there's a reason why these two could become friends at the end of the Qin Dynasty."

"Although Emperor Gaozu seemed incredibly smooth and capable of dealing with anything in his own way, deep down he was also a brute."

"However, in most cases, there were people around him who advised him against it, and since he is a person who listens to advice, he never showed it."

Old Zhu always felt that people who could become friends were somewhat similar in personality.

"But he lacked Xiang Yu's bravery, the elite guards of Jiangdong, and the strategic brilliance of Han Xin."

"Wasn't that a bit too reckless?"

Originally, their idea was that the way to break the deadlock would be for Li Zicheng to hold out for enough time, and then for Liu Bang and Zhang Xianzhong to cooperate tacitly.

Zhang Xianzhong, with his large army, was in charge of the main attack, while Liu Bang launched a feint attack from behind the Qing army to disrupt their morale and create a pincer movement.

But now, Liu Bang's plans are clearly contrary to their expectations.

"More than ten thousand troops, intending to launch a main attack and defeat our Prince Zhong of the dynasty head-on?"

"This is beyond delusional; it's downright suicide!"

"You bunch of lackeys, just watch! He'll be dead soon, and his defeat will be a foregone conclusion!"

"Our Qing warriors are skilled in archery and horsemanship, and it is always our army that wins against overwhelming odds. Anyone who dares to underestimate Prince Zhong will pay a bloody price!"

"Just wait, Emperor Gaozu's head will soon become Prince Zhong's spoils of war!"

"Let's see how you guys defend him then!"

"Admit it, you bunch of lackeys are far inferior to my Great Qing!"

Emperor Qianlong was amused and laughed out loud.

Fu Heng behind him no longer showed any sign of worry.

With over 10,000 against 100,000, we should still focus on the main offensive.

What suspense could there be in this battle?

Even if Prince Zhong had been a famous general of the Qing Dynasty, any unknown general could have easily won this battle!

The only remaining question is whether Liu Bang will escape.

In the midst of the chaos, if Liu Bang had been determined to escape, it might not have been possible to accurately capture him.

After all, Dorgon inside the canopy did not know that he was facing Emperor Gaozu of Han.

"You still have the nerve to fart here?"

"Look at that corner at the very top of the sky. Your Manchu Qing dynasty has been almost wiped out, yet you still claim that the Manchu Qing dynasty is invincible?"

Zhao Kuangyin sneered.

Emperor Qianlong: "..."

He looked up and saw that the place he had ignored for so long was still a one-sided massacre.

Those Qing soldiers who he was so proud of were so utterly helpless when facing Xiang Yu and the Jiangdong soldiers beside him.

Even the tens of thousands of troops that Liu Bang brought to Xiang Yu as an extra layer of protection were unable to get involved.

The soldiers recruited by Han Xin in the name of the King of Chu were not used for killing enemies on the grasslands, but for cleaning up the battlefield and transporting large amounts of supplies into the interior.

Is this really the Qing Dynasty?

"Fuheng, tell me, was it because this man was truly exceptionally brave, or was it because our Qing warriors were unprepared and were ambushed by him?"

"Why can't they even mount a decent counterattack?"

One-sided.

A complete one-sided affair.

If it weren't for the advantage of firearms, it would have been difficult to inflict casualties on Xiang Yu and his Jiangdong troops.

But as they gradually learned about this terrifying weapon, their armor became thicker and thicker, and the effectiveness of the muskets rapidly diminished.

Fu Heng: "..."

He gave Qianlong a strange look.

Your Majesty, do you know what you're saying?

Was it because he ambushed her?

This is Xiang Yu, the Hegemon-King of Western Chu!

How many people have you seen who can wear such heavy armor without it hindering their movements?

The key point is that there are more than just a few.

It's hundreds!

Xiang Yu and his Jiangdong soldiers, all clad in heavy armor, still charged freely on the battlefield.

Countless warhorses died from exhaustion, yet the men continued their relentless campaigns as if they were tireless.

Your Majesty, you're saying that this group of monsters won because of a sneak attack?

Aren't you overestimating yourself a bit?

Fu Heng wanted to say this, but he didn't dare to.

"Your Majesty, perhaps Xiang Ji was indeed too brave, but in all these years, there has only been one Xiang Ji."

"In the end, the warriors of our Great Qing Dynasty are still superior."

Hearing this, Qianlong was still dissatisfied.

To admit that Xiang Yu was too brave is tantamount to admitting the incompetence of the Qing Dynasty.

What did he want to hear when he asked that question?

After thinking for a moment, he asked again.

"If you were commanding a large army, how many soldiers do you think would be needed to wipe out this gang of madmen?"

Fu Heng: "..."

Another potentially disastrous question?

Your Majesty, if you wish to punish someone, you can simply state it directly. Why beat around the bush and make me answer all these questions?

How many troops would it take to wipe out this gang of madmen?

Do you want to listen to what you're asking?

The military genius Han Xin, along with Emperor Gaozu of Han and many elite soldiers and generals from the early Han Dynasty, mobilized a total of 600,000 troops.

Even so, Xiang Yu still managed to break through the encirclement!

Now you're asking me how many troops it would take to completely wipe them out?

Can I say one million?

And they can't be the old, weak, sick, or disabled; they have to be truly elite soldiers and generals to have even a slim chance!

A number came to mind for Fu Heng.

Even he himself was taken aback by the number.

Could the entire Qing Dynasty really muster a million elite soldiers even if it sold everything it owned?

He didn't even dare to say the number aloud, because he knew how furious Emperor Qianlong would be upon hearing it, and how he would inevitably be punished.

"Ten, one hundred thousand..."

Left with no other choice, he could only reduce the number by tenfold before saying it.

As he spoke, his old face turned bright red with embarrassment.

I really didn't expect that at his age, he would still lie through his teeth.

"Good, I knew it. The warriors of my Great Qing are unparalleled in the world. We only need 100,000 troops to annihilate Xiang Yu's 50,000 to 60,000!"

The people outside the canopy: "?"

Fu Heng: "?"

Your Majesty, am I referring to those fifty or sixty thousand?

Wasn't it Xiang Yu and his few hundred soldiers?

No, don't you think it's outrageous to say that?

"What I'm saying is, Emperor Qianlong, do you have any shame?"

Old Zhu wasn't just angry anymore; he almost burst out laughing.

It's unbelievable that one person dares to say such nonsense, and the other dares to believe it.

One hundred thousand soldiers against Xiang Yu, who led fifty or sixty thousand troops?

If you ask Han Xin if he's confident, he'll immediately call you a fool.
