After the battle began, the advantages and disadvantages of both sides in terrain became apparent.
The chessboard used in this battle is the topographic map of Jingzhou.
Lu Xun was in the north and Han Xin was in the south.
The three northern counties of Nanyang, Jiangxia and Nanjun have dense towns and water systems, making defense relatively easy.
The four counties of Guiyang, Lingling, Changsha and Wuling that Han Xin occupied were vast, but underdeveloped and had few towns.
The supply line was lengthened, and the risk to baggage and food was greater than that of Lu Xun.
After both sides occupied important towns at the beginning, they finally clashed.
The first battle took place in Linyuan, Wuling County.
Han Xin's fourth army of 100,000 met Lu Xun's army of 150,000 at Linyuan.
The audience couldn't help but get nervous when they saw the two sides about to meet.
The next moment, in full view of the crowd, both sides deployed their battle formations.
The audience can see the overall situation of the entire chessboard, but as the parties involved, Han Xin and Lu Xun only have the information obtained by their team's scouts.
The formation master who was in charge of the war chess game received instructions from the host next to him and immediately called up the status of the battlefield where Lin Yuan was.
Under the illusion mirage, the audience can see that it is no longer a simple red dot.
The armies of both sides were filled with murderous aura.
They are all in strict military formation, and it is difficult to tell which one is better.
The top generals' attitude towards military management will not allow the army to have too obvious flaws, otherwise it would be tantamount to suicide on the battlefield.
"Iron Bull Formation?"
"Is this the famous Iron Bull Formation?"
"It seems that he is really the reincarnation of Han Xin?"
"In the first battle, the Iron Bull Formation was even used."
“…”
After seeing the positions of both sides clearly, the onlookers were all shocked.
In their eyes, in the illusion within the chess game, a huge iron bull loomed over the 100,000 troops under Han Xin's command.
The battle formation, led by heavy cavalry, is invincible.
When the battle formations of both sides were formed, the battle began.
After a brief standoff, the battle began.
Under everyone's attention, the Iron Bull Formation, led by heavy cavalry, charged forward with tremendous force.
It's just a battle chess game, but even through the illusion, the projection's momentum is still terrifying and amazing.
The moment the two sides collided, their momentum reached its peak and exploded instantly.
The battle pace is extremely fast, and the outcome can be determined almost the moment the fight takes place.
In the first battle, Han Xin won, and Lu Xun ordered the remaining troops to withdraw through Huarong Road.
The onlookers were extremely impressed by Han Xin's methods, but the battle was not over yet and the outcome was still undecided.
Suddenly, the audience became agitated.
Under the watchful eyes of all of them, Han Xin's troops began to split up and advance in various directions.
Everyone was shocked by the division of troops before them.
Even Li Jing, who was on the high platform, was extremely surprised when he saw the division of troops in the chess game.
To him, the Iron Ox Formation was just a top-level battle formation, but it was not enough to astound him. However, Han Xin's strategy of dividing the troops astounded him.
He was best at dividing the troops for battle. The Six Armies Mirror was his famous military strategy, which included dividing the troops.
He was amazed by the command and leadership displayed by Han Xin.
As a top-level general, he deeply understood the risks and difficulties of the tactic of dividing troops.
With one more troop, the difficulty of commanding increases sharply, and a lot of calculations and deductions are required to determine the significance of dividing the troops.
The significance of dividing the troops is the overall situation. Put aside small victories in small places, completely disrupt the opponent's layout, make the opponent lose his composure, and then attack when the opponent is in chaos and has weak morale, forming a multi-party encirclement and suppression posture, and push the opponent aside with the overall situation.
In the whole of Daxia, there are only a handful of people who can come up with such a plan.
Now for one more?
Li Jing's eyes fell on Han Xin who was immersed in the illusion of chess, and he was amazed and praised him. Then he looked at Lin Han.
He knew that the emperor was present and should see Han Xin's abilities at this time.
"We are surrounded by ambushes from all sides," said Zhang Liang.
"Zifang knows?"
Lin Han discovered the difference, but he couldn't deduce that far, so he could only watch quietly. There seemed to be an explanation next to him.
In terms of general trends, Zhang Liang's abilities are among the best in history.
"I know a little bit."
Zhang Liang said with confidence.
"Han Xin, following Xiang Yu, learned the strategy of burning his boats and breaking his cauldrons at Julu. Later, Han Xin fought a desperate battle, putting himself in a desperate situation and surviving. Han Xin always grasped the essence of military tactics. At the Battle of Pengcheng, he and Xiang Yu were rivals. Xiang Yu's 30,000 troops defeated Liu Bang's army of over 500,000. Xiang Yu's method of dividing his forces was fully utilized. At the Siege of Gaixia, he deployed a ten-sided ambush formation, commanding multiple armies to encircle Xiang Yu. Once the ten-sided ambush was established, morale would collapse. Unless he possessed the ability of a hegemon, there was no solution. It wasn't just a battle formation, but a higher-level strategy."
While Zhang Liang was speaking, the chess pieces had already changed beyond recognition.
Han Xin's one million soldiers, divided into more than twenty groups, marched towards the territory controlled by Lu Xun. The entire chessboard was full of battle scenes, and the battle scenes were too numerous to watch.
Han Xin's goal was very clear, but Lu Xun, who was in the situation, was very passive against Han Xin's tactics.
A steady stream of battle reports and military intelligence came back, involving as many as twenty armies, which made people's scalps tingle.
He didn't know where the focus was, let alone where Han Xin would attack next.
Han Xin's style is unpredictable.
Previously, the Iron Ox Formation showed its invincibility and dominance, but now it is unpredictable.
Every time he wanted to clash with his opponent again, the opponent knew he was no match for him and avoided fighting, allowing his punches to sink into the water and prevent him from exerting any force.
Suddenly, new information came back, causing Lu Xun's calm expression to fluctuate.
Han Xin's twenty armies, deep in the front,
