Chapter Ninety-Nine: Confronting the Chinese Army
Qu Kuo stretched out his hand, waited for everyone to calm down, and said, "Now there are 30,000 Qin troops outside blocking our way home, what do you say we should do." โ
"Kill." A thunderous sound rang out.
"Okay." Qu Kuo pulled out his sword and said: "Fathers and brothers, please follow this future, fight a bloody way, and go home with me." โ
"Go home!"
As a result, the city gates, which had been blocked for more than 20 days, were opened, and more than 40,000 Chu troops, who were physically exhausted but extremely excited, shouted to go home while killing to the east.
At the Qin army trench.
When Wei Zhang heard the roar coming from the Chu camp, he knew that the Chu army had moved.
But after hearing the army's shouting clearly, he went home, and suddenly changed color.
Even a worm will turn!
Now the mad dog who has been besieged for more than 20 days is going to be desperate.
Although the Qin army is fierce, it is for the title, and the so-called return of the Chu army is for his own life.
One is for money and the other is for life, who is more ruthless than whom, who is crazier than whom, you can think of it without a head.
At this time, the most correct way is to let go of a way out, and then take advantage of the situation to cover up and kill, and definitely kill the Chu army without leaving a piece of armor.
Unfortunately, this method does not work.
"Order, the whole army is on alert, as long as the strength of the Chu army is suppressed, then the Chu army will inevitably surrender in a battle."
After giving the order to the army, Wei Zhang continued: "Report to the general, the Chu army has gone crazy and is very likely to break through, please make plans for the general as soon as possible." โ
Qu Kuo led people to the Qin army's trench and shouted: "The way to life is in front of you, all the fathers and brothers go home with me." โ
"Go home, go home..."
The 40,000 Chu troops were like hypnotized fanatics, shouting slogans in their mouths and frantically charging towards the trenches.
A small earthen ditch, coupled with a low earthen wall built up of the waste soil of the trench, could not stop the crazy Chu army at all, and under the impact of the fierce Chu army, after the corpses of the Chu army filled a section of the trench.
After a period of bloody fighting, the Chu army finally tore a gap in the Qin army's defense line.
Then the gap widened rapidly, and finally less than 30,000 Chu troops successfully broke through.
After Wei Zhang eliminated the remnants of the Chu army and gathered the Qin army, there were less than 25,000 Qin troops left, with more than 5,000 casualties.
At this time, the fleeing Chu army was nowhere to be seen.
Wei Zhang glanced in the direction where the Chu army had fled, and said, "Pass the order, chase and kill the Chu army." โ
Main Battlefield.
At this time, the front army of the Chu army had already broken through the seventeenth formation of the Qin army.
Xiong Huai stood on a high platform in the camp, looking at the two sides in the bloody battle, panting slightly, and it was difficult to calm down in his heart.
I have to say that the shortcomings of the lack of elite soldiers in this battle of the Chu army have been exposed.
More than half of the battle formations were made up of temporarily conscripted troops who had never been on the battlefield.
In the face of the onslaught of the Qin army, these temporary workers presented great problems in terms of experience, organization and cooperation, and psychological quality.
The defense line was like paper, and it was stabbed and broken by the Qin army (temporary worker's potยทยทยท ๏ผใ
If it weren't for the fact that the King of Chu was still here, if it weren't for Zhao Ju's efforts to maintain the front, I'm afraid the Chu army would have been defeated.
Xiong Huai even regretted it a little, if he had followed Zhaoying's persuasion, then with the defense of the military camp, at least he would not have been suppressed so badly by the Qin army.
At this time, Dr. Chen Zhen and Shangguan were all behind the King of Chu, but no one persuaded the King of Chu to leave.
The war has been fought so far, and the Chu army has faint signs of collapse, and if the king of Chu leaves at this time, it will be a heavy blow to the Chu army, and the Chu army will become a rout nine times out of ten.
This situation is unacceptable to anyone.
Now for the Chu army, there is still hope, and the biggest hope is that the general Qu Kuo will break through and attack the rear of the Qin army as soon as possible.
If the Qu Kuo breakthrough fails, then...
Xiong Huai looked at the sun, which was already in the west.
As long as the Chu army holds out until the evening, then there is still hope.
At this time, the general Qu Kuo's department had only broken through the siege not long ago, and there was still some distance from the main battlefield.
"Great King, the Qin army has already attacked the eighteenth army formation." Doctor Shangguan wiped the sweat from his head and swallowed his saliva.
"The widow saw it." Xiong Huai's breathing became even more rapid.
Soon, the Qin army broke through the nineteenth army formation and was about to reach the core area where the king of Chu was located.
As soon as Xiong Huai saw that the circle formation of the Chu army was about to be broken by the Qin army, he couldn't hold back any longer, and said, "The order, the widow must go into battle in person." โ
Chen Zhen and the four of them were taken aback, and hurriedly Chen Zhen grabbed the sleeve of the king of Chu and said: "The king can't, the war is dangerous, how can the king fall into the trap of himself." โ
Doctor Shangguan took a step forward, stood behind the king of Chu, and persuaded: "The king, if the gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall, he will personally go into battle, please ask the king to mention it." โ
Ku Shu also advised: "King, as long as the king stands here, it will be a great encouragement to our army, why bother to go into battle in person." โ
He has already spoken: "The king, now that the Qin army is saying disrespectful words, if the king goes, I'm afraid the Qin army will go crazy." โ
"This..."
Xiong Huai was stunned when he heard this, and the problem he had said was not impossible, and it was very likely.
Now the slogan of the Qin army is to kill the king of Chu, if the king of Chu arrives at the front line, the morale of the Chu army may be boosted, but the Qin army will definitely be excited, with mixed pros and cons.
Just when Xiong Huai was struggling with how to motivate the soldiers, Xiang Chengjun came from the rear.
"King, Xiangchengjun is here." Chen Zhen was the first to discover Xiang Chengjun's figure.
Xiong Huai looked back, and sure enough, this time Xiang Chengjun personally brought two Chu troops to the Chinese army.
"Meet the King." Xiang Chengjun walked alone in front of the King of Chu, gave a military salute, and then continued: "The last general came to support the Chinese army by military order, please show the king." โ
Chen Zhen immediately said: "King, Xiang Chengjun is a general in the army, and if the Chinese army is handed over to Xiang Chengjun, he will be able to block the Qin army." โ
It is definitely impossible to go by yourself, Chen Zhen and Doctor Shangguan's combat experience is not as good as his own, as for the two of the Mo family, although they are famous, they are still the first to appear, not to mention that they don't have much experience, and the key is not to convince the public.
Now that Xiang Chengjun has arrived, he has a high status and rich experience, and he has come at the right time.
Xiong Huai glanced at Xiang Chengjun and said, "Okay, Xiang Chengjun, the widow will hand over the Chinese army and the key to this big war to you." โ
Xiangchengjun bowed down and said: "The ministers will not live up to the king's trust, and if the ministers do not die, the Qin army will not break through the defense line of the Chinese army." โ
"Okay, the military situation is urgent, and the Chinese army will be handed over to Xianqing."
Xiang Chengjun said goodbye when he heard this, and then walked to the front line of the Chinese army.
At this time, the Qin army had already attacked the last line of defense, and after this line of defense, it was the Chinese army camp of the king of Chu.
The Qin army seems to have been able to see the royal flag symbolizing the king of Chu.
Soon after Xiang Chengjun adjusted the defensive line, the Qin army broke through the last line of defense and officially faced the Chinese army of the king of Chu.
"Kill, the king of Chu is ahead, kill the king of Chu and seal the marquis."
After Gongzihua killed the Chinese army, he couldn't help but let out a loud roar.
"Kill the King of Chu..."
The Qin army, which had been fighting hard for a long time, looked at the royal banner of the king of Chu at this time, and in his tired body, a force once again poured out to kill the Chu army.
