Chapter 107 The First Emperor: Little Thirteen is such a waste!
At this moment, they learned a piece of news that among the tens of thousands of soldiers guarding the farmland, some followed Wang Ben away, while others withdrew to the military camp.

They only have to face a few hundred Jinyiwei, which greatly increases the success rate of the raid!
At this moment, on a gently sloping mountain, Xiang Yu and Zhang Liang were the first to ride out.

Afterwards, the team behind him, like a long dragon, appeared on the hillside one after another.

They were not moving very fast, but in the eyes of the First Emperor and the two secret guards, it seemed as if the team had walked for a full quarter of an hour before they could see the tail of the team.

According to a rough estimate, there are thousands of troops!
The Emperor's pupils suddenly shrank, and he whispered, "Where are these troops from? What do they want to do?"

"Those who lurk quietly in the mountains are definitely not good people!"

Dahei and Xiaohei did not respond. Their hearts were filled with tension and fear.

Every member of the team before him was strong and sturdy, and they rode on excellent horses.

At first glance, there was no weak person.

The two guards were still frightened. If the three of them went forward for another few dozen miles, they would probably meet this team head-on!
And the person they were escorting was the First Emperor!
With only the two of them guarding, if they were to encounter an enemy, even if they tried their best, they might not be able to save His Majesty.

If it really comes to that, they will go through fire and water!

At this moment, the three of them were hiding in a hidden place, spying on the group's movements from afar, and the two secret guards breathed a sigh of relief.

however!
The First Emperor's expression became increasingly gloomy!

The group had stopped at the foot of the mountain and were busy gathering.

And in the direction they were facing, just over a bend in the mountain, was the vast expanse of fertile farmland!
Xiang Yu and Zhang Liang are ready to go.

Zhang Liang deployed: "Young Master Xiang, today you will lead 3,000 cavalry as the vanguard. Your main task is to clear all obstacles."

"If we encounter an enemy, you will be the one to deal with them."

Xiang Yu nodded solemnly.

Zhang Liang continued, "I will lead two thousand cavalrymen to guard the rear, and our main task will be to plunder and burn."

"Seize what you can. If the enemy pursues us too quickly and we can't return with a full load, then pour kerosene on them and burn all the newly planted grain fields and crops! Destroy as much as you can!"

"Only if we succeed can we hope to recruit soldiers and succeed in our uprising."

"Otherwise, the Qin Dynasty now has hundreds of thousands of troops, while the nobles of the six countries put together have less than 100,000. How can we win?"

There were sparks of hatred in Xiang Yu's eyes. They had been preparing for years, but they had never expected that in the last year before the uprising, such a miracle crop would appear in the Qin Dynasty!
This trip can only succeed, not fail, otherwise the chance to destroy the Qin Dynasty will be gone!

Zhang Liang added: "What I just said is all in the plan."

"If you encounter an emergency, such as encountering Qin's cavalry or a large army approaching, do not confront them head-on. Follow the planned route and retreat to the mountain!"

"Once we are on the mountain, our horses are stronger than the Qin army's. They will never be able to catch up with us."

"If their army follows closely, we will lead them to the other side of the mountain, where Han Cheng and Xiang Liang are leading their armies to support them."

Xiang Yu looked dissatisfied when he heard this, but he still nodded.

This strategist Zhang Liang has proven himself to be a rare genius through his many actual combat judgments.

Before setting off, Xiang Liang had instructed Xiang Yu to follow Zhang Liang's advice in everything.

However, Xiang Yu was full of confidence in his own cavalry team. He believed that Zhang Liang only understood strategy but not fighting on the battlefield.

If they really encountered an enemy, no matter if they were cavalry or infantry, he only needed to lead his troops to charge a few times to destroy them. Xiang Yu was convinced that their cavalry could destroy the enemy's army of 10,000 people like a dead tree or rotten wood.

If you encounter enemy infantry, no matter how many of them there are, how many you can kill depends entirely on your own physical strength.

This is his confidence in his own military strength.

Although Zhang Liang had some wisdom, he was indeed inferior in terms of martial arts. Is battle more than just a contest of numbers?
Is five thousand better than three thousand?
not that simple.

If we really get to the battlefield, I will rush in alone and kill a lot of people first. The enemy will immediately be frightened and turn around and run away. How many we can kill depends on our physical strength!

This is the real enemy of ten thousand people!
Xiang Yu was filled with hatred and had infinite power in his body. With this passion, he led three thousand cavalrymen to charge first.

Behind him, Zhang Liang led the remaining two thousand non-combat cavalry, and after walking two miles, they also galloped quickly.

In the dense forest on the mountain, when Ying Zheng saw this situation, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

There was deathly silence in the cellar.

The joy when I first discovered rice, potatoes and sweet potatoes exploded like a bomb.

Now, his mood was as cold as if he had fallen into an endless abyss, and all the blood in his body had frozen into ice!
It must be a traitor!
Powerful rebel!
Why did the rebels choose to emerge from this mountain range?

How did they know that the Qin Dynasty’s secret granary was hidden here?

How could there be such a powerful cavalry unit?

How to deal with it?
If he were here at this moment, what would he choose?
At the foot of the mountain, the Jinyiwei leader Xuanwu had only a few hundred men under his command. Although all of them were skilled in martial arts, they were unable to protect the thousands of acres of mountain farmland.

No matter how strong one's personal martial arts skills are, they will be pale and powerless when facing the chaotic enemy forces on the battlefield.

The other side has thousands of soldiers and horses, especially the horses, which are incredibly strong!

Under the impact of the iron hoof, even a martial arts master of the innate level would not be able to resist in a one-on-one situation, let alone now it is a situation of ten against one!
The Embroidered Uniform Guards would definitely not be able to resist such a large army!
Even if we exaggerate a little, assuming that all of them are masters at the grandmaster level, they would not be able to prevent the food from being looted.

But what if the other party just wants to destroy and set fire to the mountain?

What should I do then?
What can be used to save all this? ! !
The First Emperor did not dare to take risks.

Even he could think of the method of burning the forest, so he didn't dare to bet that the leader who could let thousands of cavalrymen cross hundreds of miles of mountains silently would not think of this method!
The other party chose an excellent geographical location. They gathered on the right side of the hill where Qin Shihuang and his two companions were located. This area could not be seen from the hill where grain was grown, and it was a blind spot.

Once they bypassed the mountain where the First Emperor was, there would be an open area where they could charge directly.

It was only a dozen miles away, and even if the other party discovered it, it would be too late to save the situation.

The distance is more than ten miles, and if a war horse gallops, it may only take a quarter of an hour to arrive.

This amount of time is not even enough for them to gather defense, let alone call for help!
What is Xiao Shisan doing!
It is such a critical place, and the grains are the lifeline of the Qin Dynasty. How could he not send heavy troops to guard it?
At this moment, Ying Zheng's anger towards Ying Che was burning like a raging fire!

waste!

He might be good at governing a country, but he is a complete rubbish at governing the army!

If these grains fall into the hands of the enemy today, the Qin Dynasty will be severely damaged!

Because these grains are the seeds planted by Daqin throughout the summer!
If it is destroyed, it will undoubtedly be a thorn in the spine of the Qin Dynasty!

Although we have not returned to the era of food shortage, knowing all this, we are powerless to do anything.

Now the First Emperor was well aware of the existence of these grains, and there were also top-quality varieties that could produce 5,000 kilograms or even 10,000 kilograms per mu!
If it were destroyed, I wonder how many years it would take to cultivate so many seeds again!
