Chapter 18: The Awakening of a Strong Country

"Array ......"

"Coax, coax, ......"

At this time, between the sky and the water, the word "array" of soldiers came out......

Immediately afterwards, the sound of the overwhelming footsteps, bursts of eye-catching, its sound is deafening, shattering mountains and rivers, and has the powerful power of swallowing the sea and sky, which country has such a strong spirit at this time? The Qin State, which had just been overthrown and destroyed, did have such a powerful shock when the six heroes were wiped out, and at the beginning of the Qin Zhaoxiang King East out of the world, it was so powerful and had a shocking sense of rhythm, and then, when Qin Shi Huang ordered Wang Jian to raise the whole country's troops to destroy Chu, he also had such a strong spirit, of course, at the moment, in our hearts, maybe only the army of the overlord of Western Chu would have such overwhelming courage, but the overlord's use of soldiers is to win more with less, so it is rare to use such a strong spirit to line up, It will not be easy to use 250,000 strong teams to assemble the division.

The galloping cavalry carried the smoke in the air, the majestic horses were all murderous, and when we had not yet finished appreciating the majesty of the cavalry, there were archers in two ways, and the bow was an embroidered bow, it is said that only when the quality of the bow and crossbow was relatively good, it would be so delicately embroidered, and the crossbowmen were all dressed in exquisite armor, and then the chariots were in place, and they were neatly arranged and entered.

A general in red armor appeared in our field of vision, and held a long sword, commanding the overall situation, and then a hundred flag bearers were distributed in turn to move the flag, and a signal soldier stepped forward quickly, with his hands folded and kneeling on one knee and bowing: "General Qiyu, 120,000 elite infantry soldiers are in place, 80,000 elite cavalry are in place, thousands of chariots are in formation, 50,000 strong bows and crossbows are all in place, a total of 250,000 troops, and 3,000 battlefields" followed by a Qi national flag suddenly appeared.

At this time, the King of Qi was dressed in gorgeous clothes, and a turbid wine came out, slowly dripping down along the beard of the King of Qi, and Xing Tao, who was wearing the generalissimo of Qi, appeared, and his left and right were the left general Peng Kai and the right general Hu Zhun.

"General Xing, Qi since the Spring and Autumn Period, are feared by the Central Plains, since Qin unified the world, the culture of Qi no longer exists, today, our neat and orderly army, not for the Qi country to use the single horn, and annex the world, is the trend of the times, but also the expectations of everyone, today's Qi country, will no longer be the evil Qi of the world, when the king of Qin Zhaoxiang used strategy, with my Qi country east and west and hegemony, so that we annexed the Song State early, and united the heroes to defeat the Qi State, Jiang Qi no longer exists, and then, fortunately, the Tian family rises, Re-establish the Great Qi, how can a strong and prosperous country be abolished, now, the world is in chaos, my Qi country is coming to bloody Great Qin to take revenge, come, we want to win the Central Plains, unify the world" King Qi said.

General Xing Tao raised his sword and threatened: "Qi country since ancient times for the land of capable ministers, first Jiang Taigong established the Great Qi, and then born Sun Wu, Sun Bin and other capable people, it can be said that for the Qi country, the lack of a good opportunity, now, my king prestige, in a short period of time gathered the remnants of the Qi country, and won the support of the people of Qi, the establishment of a new Qi and the world, this is the wisdom of my king, and now, as the king said, the Great Qin burned books and pit Confucianism, now, I have only one culture in the Central Plains, This also means that there is no other way to unify the world, so from now on, I, Xing Tao, will definitely lead the powerful Great Qi to the westward into the countries and unify them all."

At this time, the king of Qi laughed three times, and then said proudly: "Well said, my great general, this king believes that you will definitely be able to help this king take this world, and you must remember that it is no longer a nation, but a prince."

"My king's teachings, Xing Tao keeps them in mind"

"Okay, let's send troops"

After listening to the king's words, I saw General Xing slowly pull out his long sword, and pointed at the army, and then said in a loud voice: "The governor of the three armies, Qi Huai, Wen Chong, Pang Shi, Yin Kong"

At this time, under the loud voice of the general Xing Tao, Qi Huai came out of the ranks: "Report to the general, the infantry is all in place, waiting for the troops"

"The chariots, crossbowmen, and cavalry are all in place," said Wen solemnly.

Then Pang Shi came out: "Pang Shi, the chief of grain and grass, reported that all grain and grass have gone first, waiting for our army to advance westward."

Yin Kong appeared and reported: "Report to the general, at the moment of the day, it is an auspicious day to send troops today, and it is powerful for me."

"Okay, the time, place and people are all complete, what else do you need to worry about, the whole army will attack, for the sake of Daqi, kill ......" After Xing Tao's arrogance, at this time, Xing Tao and the left and right generals Peng Kai and Guo Zhun

Looking at the back of the army going west, the King of Qi at this time was full of heart, of course, the King of Qi at this time knew very well how it was possible for the current Qi State to recover to the strength of the Duke of Qi Huan back then, of course, it is not a bad thing to have the opportunity to rise in the east now, because at the very least, there is still a chance to rise, only after the rise, can there be a chance to dominate, but the passionate King of Qi is also very clear in his heart: "The reason why the Duke of Qi Huan was strong back then was indispensable to Guan Zhong recommended by Uncle Bao, Guan Zhong's ability can be said to be extraordinary, Back then, Guan Zhong was still in Lu State, and Duke Qi Huan did whatever it took to get Guan Zhong in order to ask for it, but now, is there still peerless talents like Guan Zhong and Sun Wu in Qi State? Of course, these are not important, because, the times create heroes, and I believe that in the next battle, there will be a lot of capable ministers and righteous people in my Qi country."

Qi State westward, the first step is to threaten the Yan State in the north, the swept land, the first is to annex the seventeen cities in the south of Yan State, and then, Qi State did not put Yan State in his eyes at all, but directly pounced on Zhao State, because the King of Zhao at this time is weak, so King Qi must also hope to take Zhao State, of course, in order to be more realistic, so Xing Tao ordered Peng Kaiyue to lead a strong army to assault first, by the way, talk about Zhao State.

At this time, Chifeng was in a desperate crisis and was actually rescued by the overlord.

Looking at the man in front of him, he was burly and with a powerful murderous aura, a black black horse, a murderous Yin Wind Slaying Dragon, and a red cloak in all directions......

"Yes, that's right, he, he is the overlord, our Western Chu overlord Xiang Yu..."Chifeng's inner thoughts wandered.

At this time, he said calmly: "You are Chifeng", and his voice carried a calm power.

"It's... I don't know when, Chifeng actually became nervous, I don't know if it was the overlord's spirit that scared Chifeng, or the overlord's temperament completely shocked Chifeng.

"Smack..."

Chifeng immediately knelt down on his knees to the overlord, and then said: "Chifeng is guilty"

"Oh? What a sin?"

"If you commit the following crimes, you should be beheaded"

"Haha, you are a pawn, but you are full of loyalty, in order to resolve the big problems in the army, you stood up to save the lives of other soldiers, dare to love and hate, extremely capable, and defeated your general, but then, you used your life to wash the face of the general, such a heart is the heart that my Western Chu army should have, such a warrior is the most admired soldier of my Western Chu overlord, if you are convicted today, he will think that my Western Chu army is a real loyal and brave army, and who else will be afraid of us" After the words of the overlord, In Chifeng's eyes, the image of a righteous Gundam appeared in an instant, such a master, a loyal minister who regarded death as home, was what Chifeng should do.

Then Chifeng greeted him and said: "Chifeng must regard death as home, fight with all his might for my Western Chu army, and if he doesn't fight until the last moment, he will never let go of the Chu sword!" ”

"Haha, it is said that what you said back then, for the traitor Han Xin, you chose to be loyal to my Xichu, and gave up the righteousness of your buddy, this point, how to say, I will also canonize a general for you"

"Chifeng leads the order" Chifeng was expressionless, and listened carefully to what the king said.

The overlord said: "Now the vanguard commando of the Western Chu army needs to be led, and you Chifeng, as far as I know, is brave first, and the strategy is not bad, so in this Northern Expedition army, you will be the vanguard general, do you think it's okay?" ”

"Chifeng only listens to commands"

"Okay, from now on, you will be led by Ji Bu, and the comforting future of the Northern Expedition will depend on you."

After the two sides stabilized, at this time, the Western Chu army was stationed in the south, and the east out of Qiangqi was in the east of the army, in order to fight more cautiously, Xiang Yu under Fan Zeng's suggestion, placed Ji Bu's northern expedition army at about 120,000 people.

At the moment, the 120,000 Western Chu army is all looking at Chifeng's 1,000-man assault team, while the 250,000 Qi army is ready to rely on Peng Kai's 2,000 scouts.

At this time, in the harem of King Zhao's court, there was a fine work coming, and in the palace, he told King Zhao about the whole situation: "Unexpectedly, this king's unconscious actions have actually led to the battle between tigers and wolves, is this the will of heaven?" ”

To the south of Handan, at this time, the two expeditions slowly converged, in an inconspicuous forest, the two vanguards were getting closer and closer, and at this time, most of the Qi soldiers were mainly foot soldiers Changge, while the soldiers of the Chu people were mostly foot soldiers and long sword soldiers.

A small-scale battle between the two sides is about to begin.

"Who?" Following Peng Kai's words, the raid team led by Chifeng then began to attack him, and both sides seemed to be familiar with the enemy's flag.

"Chu?" Peng Kai raised his sword: "Actually, the army of Western Chu is here, okay, in order to revitalize the prestige of our Great Qi today, I will fight with you here."

There is a partial general Wang Kuo stepped forward: "General, the Western Chu army is extremely brave, and there are many people, let's leave."

"Nonsense, in such a dense forest, what appears is generally a scout, how many can be killed, kill Lao Tzu"

"Obedience"

At this time, Chifeng looked calmly and found that the front was actually the flag of Qi State, and after thinking for a moment, Chifeng ordered: "Withdraw while fighting"

The partial general was puzzled: "Why don't you fight?" My Xichu army is all penetrated with bravery, so it won't be the best plan to escape, right? ”

"The battlefield of the soldiers is ever-changing, and it is precisely because my Western Chu army has never been afraid of fighting, so if I run away now, they will definitely think that it is our lure of the enemy to go deeper, and when the sharp spirit of the enemy's soldiers decreases sharply, they will counterattack" Chifeng said.

Yu Qi smiled: "The last will understand"

At this time, as Chifeng said, retreating while fighting suddenly made the Qi army feel that something was wrong, and then, Peng Kai immediately ordered the emergency collection of troops, just like that, the two expeditions faced each other in the mountains, at this time, the Western Chu army stood below the mountain forest, and the Qi State vanguard stood above the mountain forest.

The moon is high and the cold wind, the bones of the soldiers are slowly pierced, for the soldiers who used to live along the coast, this is nothing more than a kind of destruction, but then, the Western Chu army rushed up the mountain under the order of Chifeng, and at this time, the long-awaited Qi people felt that the opportunity had come, because if the Qi people stayed up again, it would inevitably cause everyone to get sick because of the climate, but the Chu army attacked in such a hurry, there were two major drawbacks, the first is that the Chu army is from the bottom up, and the weapon held is a long sword, the Qi army is from the top down, holding Changge, Then from personal advantages to geographical advantages, it can be seen that the Chu army is bound to defeat and has no intention.

So after a short battle, as expected, the Chu army fought very hard, and after that, Chifeng commanded the Chu army to retreat, under the dark night, the Chu army left quickly, from the quality of the troops plus the climate under the moon, the Chu army ran as fast as a rabbit, and the commander of the Qi army, Peng Kai, ordered the rapid collection of troops: "Poor soldiers do not chase, in case there is fraud"

For generals, Peng Kai is a very cautious general, but at this time, Peng Kai has a deep understanding, in fact, the invincible combat power of the Chu army seems to be a bit boastful, and this battle is a good start for the entire Qi country to advance westward.

"Unexpectedly, the annexation of Zhao Di has become a direct battle with the Chu army, and the current strength of Western Chu, including the courage of the soldiers, does not seem to be very good, and my Great Qi is now in the prime of the army, so it seems that my Qi country has enough ability to fight with Western Chu, such information, I must report to General Xing Tao" Peng Kai obtained the information, and then turned around and prepared to leave, and there was thought in his heart: "Use your brains a little, they can't do it, sure enough, as everyone said, the Chu army is heavy on military force and suppresses literature, purely relying on brute force, Western Chu will definitely fail, Where did you get so much luck in the battle of the giant deer to the overlord, hahaha"

Peng Kai returned with the assault team.

At this time, looking into the distance, Chifeng slowly turned his head and looked calm, then turned around and returned with the raid team.
