Chapter 15: Ambush on All Sides and Set Fire to the Mountain

"Prince, the army is sleepy and tired, why don't you rest here for a while before leaving?"

Xiang Sheng's face was tired, and the mouth and nose of the war horse under his crotch were steaming, and he was already exhausted.

"No!"

Without hesitation, Xiang Tian rejected Xiang Sheng's request, he was extremely jealous of Han Xin, the immortal of the military family, and knew in his heart that this was definitely not the time to rest and relax.

Once rested, I am afraid that the pursuers behind will catch up, at this moment there is no Zhong Liwei and Yu Zi period after the break, the army is sleepy and tired, once the pursuers bite, I am afraid that there will be more than auspicious.

……

"Han Xin's soldiers are like antelopes hanging on their horns without a trace, and although our army has broken through at this moment, it is still unknown how many traps are waiting for our army."

"Besides, the pursuers come from time to time, and there must be no rest at this moment."

Xiang Tianhu's eyes flashed with a touch of exhaustion, clenched the iron halberd, and said: "Ordering the army to speed up, the lonely belt is equivalent to a drunken Shouchun."

"No."

Seeing Xiang Tian's resolute expression and his tone as cold as iron, Xiang Sheng no longer insisted, turned his head and shouted.

"The prince has an order, the army speeds up!"

……

"Drive!"

……

Running continuously, the army of more than 30,000 people was exhausted, and when he heard the military order of the prince Xiang Tian, he still galloped his horse and beat the horse's back with all his might.

Along the way, they saw the strength of the crown prince Xiang Tian, and they went all the way west, avoiding the eyes of the Han army. It is precisely for this reason that the 30,000 army has a belief in their hearts that they can live with Prince Xiang Tian.

……

It can be said that after this battle, the prestige of the crown prince Xiang Tian in the Chu army is close to that of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu.

……

"Prince, there is a valley in the middle of the high mountains on both sides here, it is very easy to set up an ambush, once our army enters the valley, I am afraid that the whole army will be wiped out if the mountains and rocks fall."

Glancing at the mountains on both sides, Xiang Tianhu's expression changed slightly, especially when he saw the yellow and deciduous trees on the mountain, the smirk on the corner of his mouth became more and more terrifying.

……

"Xiao Kai, Uncle Sun Jian."

"Prince."

Looking at the mountains on both sides, Prince Xiang Tian said coldly, "Collect all the Chu army markers among the generals and organize people to set fire to the mountains."

"No."

……

"Prince, the mountains of the two places stretch for hundreds of miles, once the mountains are set on fire, I am afraid that the fire will not stop for several days......"

Xiang Sheng was shocked in his heart, in his opinion, Xiang Tian was too crazy, he didn't send troops into the mountain to inspect, and directly ordered the mountain to be set on fire.

Even Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, was not so crazy.

……

"Now our army is like a lost dog, chased by the coalition army led by Liu Ji, the king of Han, and it is in panic all day long. Sending troops into the mountains is irresponsible to the soldiers. ”

Xiang Tian didn't need to look at it to understand what Xiang Sheng was thinking, the practice of setting fire to the mountain would hurt the heavens and peace, but the situation of the Chu army made it impossible for him not to do it.

"As long as you can survive, let alone set fire to the mountain, even if you slaughter the city, you will not hesitate to be alone."

Xiang Tian's voice was cold, standing here, Xiang Sheng felt a strangeness, the gentle prince at the beginning had now become like a demon.

The sun fell from the sky and fell on Xiang Tian's body, making him look like he was covered with a layer of golden light, Xiang Sheng looked at the young man in front of him, and actually gave him a feeling of standing up to the sky.

As if there was this young man in front of him, the sky in Xichu would not fall.

It is this feeling that makes Xiang Sheng, a battlefield general, have a touch of expectation for Xiang Tian, and has a glimmer of hope for Xichu.

……

"Boom!"

The fire was raging, the billowing smoke rose, and the mountains in the two places were ignited by Xiao Kai and others.

"Prince, will there be ambushes in the coalition army?"

Glancing at Xiang Sheng, Xiang Tian, he said: "Han Xin's troops are good at using the terrain, the two mountains are so Jedi is the best place for ambushes, how can Han Xin, the king of Qi, miss it."

Speaking of this, Prince Xiang Tian sighed and said, "Even if there is no ambush by the coalition army, setting fire to the mountain is just a convenient thing to do, and it will not have much impact on our army."

……

"Prince, the mountains in both places are burning, and then our army will ......"

"The army rests in place and eats immediately."

"No."

……

Just gnawed a few pieces of dry food with clear water, Xiang Tian's eyes never left the two mountains, he was observing the fire, waiting for the best time to cross the valley.

When the fire reached the extreme, it was the time when the Chu army crossed the valley.

……

"The smoke?"

Pang Heizi sniffed and couldn't help but look overhead.

"General, someone set fire to the mountain."

……

Seeing the fire rising up and constantly sweeping towards the top of the mountain, Pang Heizi's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly shouted, saying.

"Hurry back!"

……

At the same time, Cheng Buer on the opposite side also chose to retreat. They knew in their hearts that when the fire burned to the top of the mountain, the only way awaited them was death.

Although the ambush of the Chu army is important, it is not worth mentioning at all compared to life.

……

Smoke billowed out like a tornado, like a pyrotechnic dragon spreading its teeth and claws in midair.

"The army obeys the order and crosses the valley with the lonely."

"No."

Since Xiang Yu has always been the one in the Chu army, the main general gave an order, and the army acted quickly without refutation.

This, at this moment, made Xiang Tian command without constraints, increasing the chances of the Chu army surviving.

"Drive!"

……

Xiang Tian took the lead, slapped the war horse under his crotch, and the painful war horse ran wildly, like a sharp arrow shooting towards the deep valley.

"Drive!"

At this moment, the 30,000 Chu troops were like fearless warriors, facing the raging fire, the fire that was almost encircled, and went to die impassionedly.

……

"Speed up!"

With a roar of the tiger, Xiang Tian rushed in, he knew in his heart that this was simply survival in death, and he could only survive by passing through the valley in the shortest possible time.

"Ahh

……

Only by finding the valley and passing through it quickly can you survive, because the mountains in both places are burning, the temperature in the valley is terrifying, as if it will roast people all at once.

The mountains on both sides burned, and the ashes of plants and trees flew in the valley, rampage, and the whole person's mouth and nose were covered with ashes of plants and trees.

……

"Xiao Kai, count the number of people."

"No."

……

At this moment, the Chu army finally rushed through the valley, but in the process of rushing the valley, there were still many soldiers left, and the terrifying high temperature and the gray grass and trees in the valley made many soldiers who were physically exhausted fall.

"Prince, there are still 32,400 people in the army, of whom 1,325 have burns on their bodies."

Glancing at Xiao Kai, Xiang Tian was very satisfied with the number of the army, and he knew in his heart that the reason why he could survive so much was because Zhong Liyuan and Yu Ziqi blocked Han Xin, the king of Qi.

Otherwise, I am afraid that it will be like Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu in history, with only 800 cavalry left around him.

……

"Soldiers, our army has just escaped, everyone hold on, wait for the attack to break Shouchun, and ask the best doctor to treat you."

……

Xiang Tian led them out of the place of death, and even broke the ambush on the mountains of the two places, which convinced the soldiers of the Chu army in Xiang Tian's heart.

……

"Please give the prince an order, we can still fight!"
