The human spirit we possess is even stronger than theirs!
The lands of Chu, Qi, Yan, Wei, and Han—combined, they could easily gather hundreds of thousands of people!
Zhang Liang continued, "Of course, manpower alone is not enough. Ordinary soldiers are still no match for Qin's elite troops. Therefore, the key to this battle can be summed up in one word: 'speed'!"
Fan Zeng said in a deep voice: "The so-called speed is to strike first!"
The Qin state is coming to annihilate us, but we will also overthrow the Qin state!
Of the three armies, Zhang Han was the fastest, with his 100,000-strong army and the demons of Lishan already on their way.
Therefore, we must act quickly and eliminate Zhang Han along the way.
Wang Li recruited soldiers around Xianyang, which took a while to form an army. This was because the soldiers were local garrison troops, and their coordination was poor. The march was not only about getting there, but also about coordinating their efforts.
What we need to do is to be one step faster, defeat Zhang Han, and immediately attack Wang Li's forces!
Meng Tian's Great Wall army was the most elite army in the Qin state. Although it was the strongest, it had to travel a long distance to cross the northern defense line.
Even after defeating Wang Li, we still cannot rest. We must wait for Meng Tian's Great Wall army to be exhausted after their long journey and launch a surprise attack on them.
With such unstoppable momentum, using speed to overcome slowness, we have a chance to defeat the Qin state and secure victory in one battle!
Zhang Liang laughed and said, "Let me add some details that Senior Fan Zeng didn't mention."
The Qin Dynasty's laws were harsh, and Xu Fu's actions chilled the hearts of many Qin people.
The First Emperor's obsession with the secrets of immortality emboldened Xu Fu, who wreaked havoc around Xianyang.
The hearts of the six states were not with Qin, and even the hearts of the Qin people were not with Qin.
"This battle isn't entirely hopeless; the number of people might actually increase as the fighting goes on."
Zhang Liang and Fan Zeng were both top strategists, and their plans were exactly the same.
After giving a brief overview, the two added more details, which captivated everyone present, making it seem as if they truly held the advantage in this battle.
In fact, Zhang Liang and Fan Zeng's tactics and strategies were not problematic, but the most crucial factor was the person who executed them.
It sounds simple to say that speed is the best policy, but in reality, it requires them to not lose a single battle and not rest for a single day.
The Great Wall Legion had traveled a long distance, but so had they. In fact, they had fought continuously, resulting in even greater exhaustion.
Therefore, this battle remains extremely dangerous.
Once the plan was set, everyone immediately began to assemble a large army and take the initiative to attack the Qin state, heading towards Zhang Han's army.
At the same time, all the feudal lords sent messages to various places, instructing their confidants to openly rise up in rebellion and recruit large armies to join them.
At this time, the anti-Qin alliance in Chu, along with the surrendered Qin troops, numbered 300,000 and headed straight for Zhang Han.
Several days later, the borders of Chu were engulfed in flames of war. Qin scouts and anti-Qin alliance scouts had engaged in several fierce battles, and more soldiers continued to advance, forming a dense, seemingly endless mass.
Qin army commander Zhang Han, dressed in silver armor, rode his warhorse and looked at the anti-Qin alliance's army formation opposite him. He then glanced at the ferocious and terrifying demons of Mount Li and sighed deeply.
Zhang Han was one of the Nine Ministers of Qin, in charge of the Imperial Treasury. He was a man of both literary and military talent, a perfect example of someone who could rise to the position of both general and prime minister.
But at this moment, Zhang Han looked weary, his brows furrowed and his face full of sorrow.
Faced with the anti-Qin alliance, Zhang Han had many ways to divide the enemy, but the First Emperor and Xu Fu chose the most brutal one: direct annihilation.
Don't they know that the Qin state's finances are on the verge of collapse?
To build the Epang Palace, the First Emperor dug a hundred feet into the ground; heaven knows what was built beneath it.
Furthermore, Xu Fu acted recklessly, not only consuming a large number of lives but also squandering countless financial resources in order to refine his own evil creations.
Moreover, the lands of the six states were unstable, with rebellious forces everywhere, severely impacting tax revenue. In reality, Qin no longer had the funds to wage war.
However, the First Emperor and Xu Fu seemed unconcerned and still chose to devote the entire Qin state's resources to suppressing the anti-Qin alliance.
To be precise, this was not an order from the First Emperor, but rather an order from Xu Fu combined with an imperial edict from the First Emperor.
Before setting off on his campaign, Zhang Han wanted to meet with the First Emperor to persuade him to rescind his order. However, he didn't even get to see the First Emperor. He only exchanged a few words with him through a curtain before the First Emperor rudely dismissed him, telling him to simply obey the imperial decree.
The voice was the same voice, and the tone was the same tone.
But Zhang Han had a feeling that the person speaking to him through the curtain was not the First Emperor!
Although he didn't know why he had this feeling, it lingered in Zhang Han's mind.
