With the arrival of Han Xin leading 300,000 troops, the encirclement of Gaixia was formed.
The 700,000-strong army was stationed outside Gaixia and did not launch a rash attack.
First, they were wary of Xiang Yu's bravery, as he used his commanding ability to break through the siege. Second, they had not yet formulated a more reliable offensive strategy.
The morale of the entire Xiang Yu camp was extremely low.
The atmosphere in the tent where Xiang Yu and his generals were located was heavy.
The encirclement was complete. As Lin Han had expected, they were surrounded at Gaixia, without even the slightest gap. Their abilities were unpredictable.
Suddenly, the hurried sound of horse hooves outside the military camp broke the dead silence in the military tent, and the air around seemed to flow with tension.
"Report, Overlord. Han Xin commanded Liu Bang's forces and was the commander of this campaign. He divided his troops into six divisions: Kong Lu was on the left wing, Chen He was on the right, Liu Bang was in the rear, Zhou Bo and Chai Wu were behind Liu Bang, and Han Xin led 300,000 men in the vanguard to attack Gaixia."
"Report."
Outside the tent, the spy sent another urgent message.
"Han Xin leads an army of 300,000 and will arrive at Gaixia in two hours."
Upon hearing this, the generals in the tent were shocked.
Xiang Yu raised an eyebrow and without hesitation, he picked up the Tianlong City Breaking Halberd and said, "Generals, listen to my command. Assemble your troops immediately and march forward to fight."
"yes."
Ji Bu, Xiang Zhuang and others were greatly encouraged and followed him out.
The soldiers in Xiang Yu's camp seemed to have their silent hearts activated, running as fast as gears.
In less than two quarters of an hour, all 100,000 soldiers and horses were assembled and marched out from Gaixia in a mighty force.
In the Gaixia military camp, Lin Han did not leave with the army.
Instead, he watched the scene of 100,000 soldiers leaving in a mighty procession from behind. Only after the soldiers had gone far away did Lin Han turn around slowly and go deep into the military camp.
…
When Lin Han entered the Overlord's tent, only Yu Ji was there.
Seeing Lin Han, Yu Ji was shocked.
This tent was the Overlord's private tent, and no outsiders were allowed to enter. However, Lin Han came in, and the guards outside did not make any movement, which shocked her greatly.
"Sir, why are you here?" Yu Ji asked warily.
Lin Han turned a blind eye to Yu Ji's unparalleled beauty. He had more than ten beautiful women of her level in the Bronze Sparrow Tower and had long been immune to women's appearance.
In his eyes, no beautiful woman is so stunning.
"This sudden intrusion is due to an important matter. The Chu army is about to be defeated. Does the princess want to save the Overlord?" Lin Han went straight to the point.
"This..." Yu Ji was shocked and hesitated for a moment.
Since she was accompanying Xiang Yu, she naturally knew the current situation outside and also knew of Lin Han's existence, because Xiang Yu had mentioned Lin Han. Especially after Long Ju's entire army was annihilated, Xiang Yu had regretted not listening to Lin Han's advice.
After Fan Zeng, she rarely saw the Overlord listen to others' advice. Lin Han was the first. The soldiers under the Overlord seemed to have great respect and admiration for Lin Han.
If there is anyone who can save the Chu army now, Lin Han is the most likely candidate.
When Lin Han said this, she had to believe it.
"Sir, what do you mean?"
"The Overlord has led his troops to battle. This time, they will surely return in defeat. By then, the Chu army will lose its last bit of will and become demoralized.
Liu Bang's camp will launch a psychological offensive against the Chu army, chanting Chu songs at night. The Chu army's morale will completely collapse, and the Overlord will lose all his spirit. What does the princess think the Overlord will do then?
Lin Han didn't rush to give the answer, but asked instead.
Upon hearing this, Yu Ji's expression changed drastically.
"The Overlord was a proud man his entire life. He probably couldn't accept such a defeat."
"As expected, the princess knows the Overlord best. If the Overlord loses his spirit after his defeat, what will the princess do?" Lin Han continued to ask.
"This... I would like to follow the Overlord." Yu Ji said sadly and looked lonely.
"Doesn't the princess want the Overlord to regain his strength and make a comeback one day?"
"Of course I do. Do you have a way, sir?" Yu Ji asked anxiously.
"Yes, if there is anyone in the world who can pull the Overlord out of the abyss, it is only the Princess." Lin Han pretended to be mysterious and said, "But the Princess needs to listen to my plan, otherwise the Overlord will surely die."
"Sir, please speak."
"After the Overlord returns, Liu Bang's camp will surely order the recitation of Chu songs to seduce the Overlord. When the Chu songs sound late at night, the army's morale will collapse, and the Overlord will surely lose all his will. You must not commit suicide. Take my elixir and pretend to commit suicide in front of the Overlord to provoke him. After the Overlord breaks through, I will revive you and see you again."
Lin Han took out a Turtle Breath Pill and gave it to Yu Ji.
"Sir, are you serious?" Yu Ji asked in surprise as she looked at the pill that Lin Han handed over.
"Of course I take it seriously. This matter is of great importance. Remember, don't let the Overlord know about it. Otherwise, the Overlord will lose all his spirit and be heartbroken, and I will be powerless to save him." Lin Han said solemnly.
"Okay, I thank you here, sir. If Overlord can restore his confidence, I am willing to pay any price."
Yu Ji bowed to Lin Hanying and thanked her.
"Remember, you can't truly die. The Overlord's feelings for you are his only hope for recovery. If you die, he will have no reason to live."
"Thank you for the reminder, Mr.." Yu Ji nodded heavily.
"I'll leave first. Remember what happened here."
Lin Han withdrew and left the tent in the blink of an eye using the escape technique, quietly, as if nothing had ever happened in the tent.
…
Outside Gaixia, the two armies lined up.
Han Xin had 300,000 soldiers and horses, while Xiang Yu had 100,000 soldiers and horses.
The momentum collided across the air, and the murderous aura condensed. A breeze blew up the dry grass in the army formation, and all the horses were silent.
This was the first time Han Xin and Xiang Yu fought against each other in history.
Han Xin once admired Xiang Yu and followed him, but Xiang Yu was stubborn and self-willed, so Han Xin abandoned him and left.
