Julu City, located in an ancient ferry port of the Yellow River, here was originally a prosperous small city of Zhao in the past, and later Zhao was destroyed by the Qin State, under the violent Qin, harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, many names, heavy conscription, natural disasters and man-made disasters, soldiers and bandits are rampant, after more than ten years, the original prosperous small city has long been ten rooms and nine empty, and the population is withered.

In the context of Chen Sheng's martial arts uprising, the leaders of all parts of the world could not bear the suffering, and they rose up one after another to resist the tyrannical Qin.

The descendants of the old officials of Zhao State, Chen Yu and Zhang Er, took the opportunity to recruit troops and horses, gathered tens of thousands of horses, conquered a large area of Zhao State's homeland, and announced the restoration of Zhao State.

However, this restoration did not bring the slightest turn for the small city of Julu, but sent it to the brink of no return.

Shortly after the Battle of Dingtao, Zhang Han led an army of 300,000 with Chu Yuwei and rushed to surround the 50,000 army of Zhao.

Not long ago, Wang Li led 200,000 Great Wall legions to arrive, and the two main forces of the Qin army jointly launched several fierce attacks on Julu.

But by now, the moat had been filled with corpses, and people could walk on the ground, and the fortified walls had been devastated by the catapults, and it was only a matter of time before they were topple, and not too long.

What's more, now they only have 30,000 horses left, and they are sleepy and short of horses, they are exhausted of food, and the army's heart has long been broken.

Death in battle, death in surrender, death in the same way, why not die for the great events of the world, wouldn't it be strong!

Late at night, the moon is like a hook, although it is not as bright as the full moon, but it also has a unique charm.

It was under this crescent moon that a tragic battle began.

More than 100 catapults lined up the open space beneath the city, and then sent stones the size of a millstone to the walls of the giant deer, interspersed with countless fire arrows, like fireworks.

A large number of Zhao troops on the city wall were instantly smashed into flesh by huge stones, and the rest avoided the dense loss, and the screams came and went.

A strong man about thirty years old, dressed in armor, rushed to the city wall: "Don't panic! Don't panic! ”

He is Chen Yu, the coach of Zhao Jun.

It's a pity that now the city tower is in chaos, and no one has the heart to listen to his command.

Chen Yu's face sank, he shouted violently, took off the eagle bow from his back, and opened the bow to shoot the arrow, "Whoosh!" With a bang, a cloud-piercing arrow broke through the air, and a Qin soldier under the city was hit by an arrow in his forehead and fell down with a bang.

Zhao Jun, who was flustered, looked at it and calmed down a little.

Chen Yu's hands didn't stop, "Whoosh!" "One arrow after another shot in front of the Qin army's formation, each arrow will take the life of a small leader of the Qin army, and the Qin army that rushed to the front has no one to command, and the formation is a little chaotic.

The Zhao army was shocked, and they took out their bows and arrows to counterattack the Qin army, the Zhao army was condescending, and the range of the arrows was much longer than that of the Qin army, and after a while, the Qin army was suppressed.

On a high ground in the distance, Zhang Han looked at the battle situation coldly, and his face became extremely ugly.

Sima Xin said cautiously, "General, the Zhao army is determined to fight to the death, even if we can capture Julu City if we continue to fight like this, I'm afraid our losses will be hundreds of thousands, should we think about it in the long run?" ”

Zhang Han shouted: "100,000 is 100,000!" As a soldier of the empire, what a pity to die for the empire! ”

Sima Xin and Dong Fei didn't dare to persuade again, so they obediently shut up.

Zhang Han said angrily: "Beat the drum and attack!" ”

"Knock knock!" The sound of the Qin army's drums resounded in the night sky, and the mountains and rocks trembled.

The Qin soldiers held shields, carried cloud ladders, and walked towards the city wall on the bones of their companions, and on the way to charge, a large number of Qin troops were shot by stray arrows, and some of the corpses were stuck with more than ten arrows.

The Qin army put the ladder on the city wall and climbed upward.

Seeing this, Zhao Jun picked up the huge boulders thrown by the Qin army and smashed them down desperately, and the battle became more and more tragic for a while.

After several setbacks, the Qin army finally climbed the city wall, but was immediately killed by the Zhao army and thrown down, but there were many ladders, and more and more Qin troops climbed the city wall.

Julu City is already on the edge of a cliff!

At this time, another general rushed up to the city tower, he was Zhang Er, I saw him lead a team of soldiers, one of them carrying a bucket of oil, rushed up and poured cover on the ladder of the Qin army, and then lit the torch, the whole ladder immediately turned into a fire dragon, and the climbing Qin army was burned into a fireball and fell down.

The ladder was destroyed, and the Qin army below could not go up, and the Qin army, which had already climbed the tower, was outnumbered and was killed and thrown off the tower, and the offensive of the Qin army was once again blocked.

The beating of the Qin army's drums continued, but the screams and wails of the Qin army in front overshadowed the drums in the rear, and the soldiers of the Qin army were terrified and slowed down the pace of their attack.

Zhang Han saw it in his eyes and shouted angrily, "Pass my order!" Can't capture Julu City tonight, the straw bales under the city walls, regardless of the generals and soldiers! All slashed! ”

Faced with this order, Sima Xin and Dong Fei didn't know whether to convey it or not, so they broke out in a cold sweat and stayed where they were.

"Zhang Han! Are you crazy! A young general rushed to the high ground with a look of rage.

I saw that this young man had a high-spirited face, with the unique arrogance of a noble child, and he didn't take Zhang Han in his eyes at all.

He is Wang Li, the grandson of Wang Qian, a famous general of the Qin State, who was the grandson of his grandfather Wang Jian Shuai who destroyed the Chu State and killed Xiang Yu's grandfather Xiang Yan on the battlefield.

As soon as Zhang Han saw Wang Li, his face became even more angry.

Zhang Han and Zhao Jun were at loggerheads, and the news came back to Xianyang, and Zhao Gao was furious, so he sent someone to transfer Wang Li's Great Wall Army from the Great Wall in the north.

After this Wang Li relied on himself to be a famous general, he was a man who was very happy with Zhao Gao, and he was usually arrogant and domineering, and he fought against Zhang Han everywhere after coming to Julu, so that every time Zhang Han was more restricted, he was even more defeated in attack.

It's not that Zhang Han doesn't know how heavy losses he will suffer if he attacks like this, but he has already received information that Xiang Yu has formed a coalition of princes and rushed towards Julu, and will reach the south bank of the Yellow River tomorrow.

Zhang Han yelled, "Dong Peng! Give me the order! The whole army is on the offensive! ”

Wang Li snorted coldly: "You dare!" ”

The morale of the army in front was sluggish, the corpses of the Qin army were like mountains, the mourning was everywhere, and the drummers in the rear could not bear to send their companions to death, and the drumming sound at this time was already a little smaller, and when they heard Zhang Han's order, they gritted their teeth and hammered up.

Wang Li said coldly, "Fang Cai's attack has already caused my Great Wall Legion to lose thousands of people, now I want to withdraw them and wait until tomorrow daylight, which is more conducive to fighting again when attacking!" ”

If the Great Wall Army suddenly retreats at this moment, the army's morale will inevitably collapse.

Zhang Han's face was pale, and he said coldly, "You dare!" ”

Wang Li snorted coldly, "The Great Wall Army, Mingjin collects the troops!" ”

In an instant, a sound of gold sounded in the back, and the soldiers of the Great Wall Legion who heard the sound of the gong retreated one after another, and Zhang Han's convict corps also began to retreat when they saw this.

Zhang Han's face turned blue with anger, and he drew his sword and said, "You little rabbit!" Do you know that Xiang Yu has already come with a handsome army! ”

Wang Li drew his sword and said, "I know!" That's why we have to retain our strength to fight Xiang Yu! ”

Zhang Han gritted his teeth and said, "You can only talk on paper, what is the difference between you and Zhao Kuo of Zhao State who was buried back then!" Inevitably, my Great Qin will repeat the mistakes of Zhao State, and Lao Tzu will kill you now! ”

After saying that, a sword stabbed him, Wang Li saw that Zhang Han understood the real character, and hurriedly swung his sword to meet it, and the two of them fought together.

Sima Xin and Dong Fei were stunned, reacted, and hurriedly pulled out their swords to separate the two.

Wang Li's subordinates below saw that their boss was fighting with someone, so they hurriedly drew their blades and rushed up, and Zhang Han's subordinates also drew their swords and rushed over when they saw this.

At the moment of the great enemy, the Qin army is actually infighting.

Wang Li was young and frivolous, ignorant and fearless, Zhang Han was sophisticated and deep, he knew what was at stake, and seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, he gritted his teeth, took a step back, and stopped.

Wang Li triumphantly withdrew his sword, then withdrew all the men and horses of the Great Wall Legion, and went back to the camp.

Zhang Han looked at the battlefield that was gradually sinking down, and looked up to the sky and sighed, "Great Qin is in danger!" ”

Zhao Jun once again escaped a catastrophe and roared excitedly.

The moon sets, the sun rises, and a new day begins.

On the south bank of the Yellow River, the sky is full of dust, and a flood of people is rushing to the shore.

Xiang Yu's alliance of princes has finally arrived, and the famous Battle of the Giant Deer is about to begin!

The alliance of princes began to camp from sunrise, until sunset, tens of thousands of military tents have been erected on the south bank of the Yellow River, looking from afar, boundless, the Qin army looked across the bank, and hesitated.

Now that they are no longer numerous, they are tired, and the balance of victory is no longer in their favor.

The Zhao army in Julu City saw the reinforcements coming, and their morale was greatly boosted, and now they just waited for the reinforcements to cross the river, and they rushed out of the city to fight to the death with the Qin army!

However, how cunning Zhang Han is, how could he admit defeat lightly?

No, he would, but he admitted defeat to Wang Li, and he respectfully came to Wang Li's tent to apologize to Wang Li and handed over the command.

He knew very well that now that the numbers were no longer dominant, it would be up to whose army was more united.

Although the alliance of princes is menacing, it is a temporary army composed of more than a dozen princes, they do not have absolute trust between them, there is no cohesion at all, as long as the Qin army makes a gesture of unity, none of those princes dare to go first, except for ...... Xiang Yu!

But Xiang Yu only has 50,000 people, and Liu Bang is less than 70,000, could it be that they are all three-headed and six-armed? As long as Xiang Yu dares to cross the river, he will definitely be called back!

He didn't know that in this short period of time, there was a nobody named Wang Xiaoming, relying on his powerful financial resources, he had already gathered 50,000 Jianghu troops for the Chu State!

In the Chinese military tent of the princes' coalition army, Xiang Yu was full of ambition and high spirits, he had been waiting for this moment for several months, and every day was spent in torment.

Now it's finally time for the decisive battle! He will be ashamed of this battle! Avenge your grandfather and uncle!

And the state of Chu will also completely defeat the old enemy Qin state!

However, in the whole tent, except for himself, all the other people had different faces and selfish intentions.

Tian Heng's injury is almost healed, but after the heavy injury, the Yuan Ben has been damaged, and it is already wishful thinking to restore the former style of the sword saint, he hates Xiang Yu to the core, when Xiang Yu proposed to cross the river immediately to fight with Zhang Han, he had a gloomy face and did not say a word.

He didn't speak, and the rest of the princes were all silent, after all, they were all small families, and no one wanted to lose all their money.

Xiang Yu's combat policy, no one responded......
