Chapter 6, Strategy for Wan City

To raise the banner as soon as possible, so that the people in the southern ruling area, especially those young celebrities of the Three Kingdoms, can become accustomed to their birthplace being the country of Han Xin, rather than the Great Han Dynasty

but rather the county magistrates and officials within Jingzhou, who only gathered together for mutual support due to the initial strength of the Yellow Turbans

The only concern is that with my butterfly, the timeline of the Three Kingdoms may be disrupted, and I wonder if it will cause Cao Cao, Sun Jian, and Liu Bei to rise to power earlier.

Gentlemen, the leader of the Yellow Turbans, Zhao Hong, has taken control of Wan City, and we are currently unable to break through. What strategies do you propose to defeat the enemy? If any of your plans prove effective, on the day we capture the city, I, Qin, will certainly write to His Majesty to commend you for your contributions

In Han Xin's view, there are several benefits to doing this: after Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun's armies were eliminated by him

"No." The messenger received the order and rode away from the troop

The timing is just right

During the march, considering the vast maps for future battles that require crossing countries and dimensions

The establishment of another nation would assist some talented individuals from humble backgrounds in contributing their efforts

"Yes." The generals immediately went to make arrangements. Soon, a large red flag with characters rose in the ranks, and there was no need to change the equipment, as they were all of the official military model.

The entire journey involved reorganization and training, and the return trip took a full five days

During the time of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, they could at most wave flags and shout from the sidelines. If Qin Xie wanted them to genuinely offer strategies and plans, he had indeed chosen the wrong people.

At the same time, Qin Xie, the governor of Nanyang, once again faced difficulties in attacking Wancheng and ordered the sounding of the retreat signal.

Report

Alas, Qin has dispatched multiple teams to search the surrounding area. Either they have not found Master Zhu and the librarian, or the search personnel have gone and not returned. Nowadays, bandits are rampant in the south, which is truly detestable

After a hasty dinner, Qin Xie summoned the generals under his command to discuss matters in the tent

Impulsive in temperament, he could seize the head of a general amidst ten thousand troops, as easily as Zhang Fei could pluck an item from his pouch

As the Prefect of Jiangxia, he was appointed in a time of crisis to succeed the position of Governor of Nanyang, responsible for the campaign against the Yellow Turban bandits

He was able to sweep through most of the southern regions of the Han Empire before realizing it

"Yuan Jian should adapt to the situation; if he can persuade them to surrender, he should do so. If not, let him go down and accompany Zhang Mancheng."

Xu Qiuwu squinted his eyes and gently stroked his long beard with his left hand, saying, "Governor Qin, have you not yet gathered any news about Lord Zhu Jun?"

Name: Han Xin

Han Xin was completely indifferent to someone like Zhao Hong, a mere passerby

He then turned his head towards Xu Qiu, the Inspector of Jingzhou, and inquired expectantly, "Xu Gong, do you have any insights?"

Lu Su? 12 years old

The past six months have indeed been the greatest turning point in Qin Xie's life

Thinking of the future Five Tiger Generals, the epitome of aging with strength—Huang Zhong, Han Xin suddenly felt that he should take a moment to recall which famous figures from the Three Kingdoms period had already emerged in the south, whom he could recruit

Of course, the premise is that his country has remained strong and has not been conquered by the Han dynasty

There is still a chance to directly descend upon Wan City, taking advantage of the fact that the Han army is being delayed by Zhang Jiao in Guangzong, to sweep through Jing and Yang.

During the march, Han Xin opened the game system. After the battle with Huangfu Song, he leveled up twice.

With the addition of the two great generals, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, he was defeated under circumstances both intentional and unintentional. Han Xin did not believe that the Han Dynasty would pose a significant threat to him

In the year 184, Zhou Lang was only nine years old. However, at this time, it seems he had not yet become good friends and study partners with Sun Ce, and he needed to act quickly to secure his position.

He is not worried that the three individuals will pose any threat to him; rather, it is because he is well-versed in history and has a great admiration for some of the generals under the command of the three.

In the end, Han Xin, after careful consideration, felt that it was better to have the pig teammate, Emperor Ling, by his side.

During the late Eastern Han Dynasty, or rather throughout ancient times, employers placed great importance on one's lineage. This was an era dominated by aristocratic families, making it very difficult for talents from humble backgrounds to rise to prominence

Health Points

Qin Xie vowed that if the messenger brought trivial matters to disturb the camp, he would certainly make an example of one to discipline the troops

The team halted, and Han Xin looked up at the sky. He gathered everyone in the open field to discuss matters.

Liao Hua, you will lead two thousand Yellow Turbans to bypass the Qin Xie encampment and infiltrate Wan City

Strength: 18

Commander: 26

The army initially traveled from Wancheng to Bowangpo, taking a full two days. This time, returning, there was no rush. Additionally, while reorganizing the troops along the way, Huanfu Song had originally led three thousand cavalry, half of whom were killed at Bowangpo, while the other half were confiscated by him

The powerful governor of Nanyang, Qin Xie, occupied the seat of honor, with Xu Qiu, the inspector and governor of Jingzhou, seated in the first position to his left, while the others were arranged according to their official ranks.

With the example set by Zhu Jun in defeating the enemy, the remaining individuals all surrendered

Throughout the South, apart from the local militia in various regions, there are no longer any organized and combat-capable troops.

Finally, establishing a nation and disseminating policies that benefit the people's livelihood can make the south the preferred destination for those displaced by war.

Lü Meng is 6 years old

Because at this time the Han dynasty was destroyed, figures such as Cao Cao, Sun Jian, and Yuan Shao might have risen to prominence earlier

In the camp

With the upgrade, the commander has gained four additional points, and now the number of soldiers that can receive skill enhancements has increased to 2,300

The renowned general Zhu Jun, having marched south to provide reinforcements, discovered a group of Yellow Turbans gathering supplies in the wilderness while besieging a city one day. He set out to pursue them, but unexpectedly, he never returned.

In that case, he will have to kill these people in order to defeat them in the future

Regarding whether to "build high walls, accumulate grain, and delay claiming kingship" or to "be the early bird that catches the worm," Han Xin deliberated for a long time before ultimately deciding to raise the flag and confront the Han Dynasty directly

Intelligence: 18

Lu Xun, aged 1

The valiant and extraordinary Xiahou Dun, who draws his arrow and devours the enemy's eyes, possesses the courage that no ten thousand men can withstand

Forget it, after establishing the nation, I will issue a decree to recruit talents, and every day I will stay in the tavern hoping for luck, catching whoever I can.

After thinking for a long time, Han Xin unexpectedly discovered that most of the individuals who would later dominate the world were still underage.

The people in the room looked at each other, most of them shaking their heads. In fact, the majority of those present here did not come from a military background.

The durability aura, after continuous travel, eventually surpassed the life-steal aura in proficiency.

... ...

In the future, if persuasion to surrender is not possible, one can only part ways with tears, which truly contradicts his collecting obsession

... ...

Thus, Han Xin ordered that the cavalry teach the infantry under his command to practice horseback riding

It has been ten days since the attack on Wan City, yet the city has not fallen. The morale of the soldiers under his command has been affected, causing him to become increasingly anxious

Yes, my lord, what should be done about the bandit leader Zhao Hong

Zhuge Liang

Thus, under Han Xin's command, an additional 1,500 cavalry troops were added, excluding the 500 soldiers who died in ambush.

These rabble, no wonder they have been unable to defeat the bandits after a prolonged siege

Brother Kongming, at this time it seems that the child is only three years old and should not have followed his uncle to settle in Jingzhou yet

During the march, there were naturally those officers and soldiers who initially surrendered, tasked with persuading others to surrender.

At this time, however, Zhang Jiao had not yet died from illness. Within the territory of the Han Dynasty, there was the Yellow Turban Rebellion in the north, and internally, there were the incompetent Emperor Ling of Han, the ten eunuchs, and the powerful butcher He Jin, all of whom were unhelpful allies. Additionally, in Xiliang, there was the ambitious Dong Zhuo.

In certain special battlefields, such as siege warfare, mountain warfare, or areas with unfavorable terrain, cavalry cannot exert its effectiveness

As for after the establishment of the nation, Han Xin had also considered that such an act of digging up the grave of the Liu family would inevitably provoke any emperor present to send people to attack him

Qin Xie still wanted to say something when he was suddenly interrupted by a messenger who barged in

With remarkable grace, the young overlord Sun Ce stands out, a lion difficult to rival in its prowess.

He intends for all his subordinates to learn horseback riding, so that when the infantry is on the move, they act as cavalry, and when dismounted, they revert to their original units

Skill: Endurance Aura (Level 1), Passive, increases the combat endurance of oneself and nearby allied units, enhancing health recovery speed by 10%

What is the rush? This is a critical military camp, and you cannot just barge in as you please

"No." After receiving the order from Liao Hua, he led two thousand soldiers, dressed in yellow scarves and appearing disheveled, away from the ranks

After emerging from the portal, his forces increased by one thousand, reaching a total of six thousand troops, including approximately 1,700 cavalry.

The next day, he led his men south to Wancheng

Seeing the messenger's utter lack of discipline, Qin Xie was infuriated

He did not intend for all his subordinates to become cavalry, after all, no matter how formidable the cavalry may be

----------------

In June, he joined forces with Xu Qiu, the governor of Jingzhou, to launch a joint attack, defeating the bandits and beheading Zhang Mancheng. Subsequently, the Yellow Turban forces retreated to Wancheng and appointed Zhao Hong as their leader.

At this moment, he faced two choices. Before the news of Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song's deaths spread, he could disguise himself as their armies and directly attack Luoyang to assassinate the Han Emperor

Report, my lord, at the camp outside m.hetushu.com, Lord Zhu Jun is leading the army to advance into the encampment

Even with his enduring aura or the rapid aura that may awaken in the future, most of the time spent in battle will be wasted on the journey.

Qin Xie posed a question to the crowd

Sigh. Qin Xie let out a quiet sigh, knowing that he could not rely on these good-for-nothings.

———

In February of this year, the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out. In March, the governor of Nanyang, Chu Gong, was beheaded by the Yellow Turban leader Zhang Mancheng

As he watched Liao Hua depart, Han Xin said to the former generals of Zhu Jun who had surrendered beside him: "Next, let us raise the banner of Zhu Gong and head towards the camp of Qin Xie"

Huangfu Song is dead, and those loyal and valiant soldiers have already followed him. The remaining ones, these low-ranking soldiers who serve in the army for food, are not yet at the point of preferring death to surrender.

Level: 8

Indeed, Han Xin decided to march south this time, and after conquering Wan City, he would directly raise his banner, proclaim himself emperor, and establish a nation

After battling with Huangfu Song, Han Xin led his men out of Bowang Slope and rested nearby for a night

At present, they are subjects, and at this time, they have not yet revealed any ambition for independence. After being defeated by him, they can be persuaded to surrender; if they cannot be persuaded, they can be temporarily detained, and after the fall of the Han dynasty, they can be persuaded to surrender again

By the time Han Xin led his army and approached Wancheng, it was already dusk on the fifth day

The valiant warrior Guan Yu, whose righteousness is as vast as the heavens, who rides alone a thousand miles, and who overcomes five passes and slays six generals

As the army passed through Nanyang, Han Xin suddenly recalled that Nanyang had an unparalleled fierce general who could be recruited

The characters he admires are all inextricably linked to figures such as Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Jian

Acting on impulse, Han Xin summoned a messenger and instructed, "You go to Nanyang to inquire about a man named Huang Zhong, also known as Huang Hansheng. He should have a frail and sickly son. Find him and tell him that if he wishes to cure his son's terminal illness, he should bring his son to see me."
