One hundred and eighty-eight Overlord charges
γChinese Networkγ, to provide you with wonderful reading.
"Cut off our retreat?"
Xiang Yu's face was full of disdain after hearing the report, and the knuckles of the ten knuckles of his hands were "grid", and he said to Xiang Liang: "Hongnong is not Yique, and our uncle and nephew are not Tang Yu, is it useful to cut off our back road in vain?" β
Xiang Liang was not nervous about the sudden situation, and agreed with Xiang Yu's words: "The grain and grass in the army can still support a month and a half, and it is still unknown who wins and who loses." β
Hongnong County is flat and broad, with a radius of hundreds of miles, and there are also counties such as Shaanxi, Tianjin, Huxian, and Caoyang around the Chu army camp; The Qin army in the west was still stationed in Huayin, a hundred and fifty miles away, which was completely different from the situation in which Tang Yu was surrounded in the Yique Valley.
The 100,000 Chu army led by Tang Wu was surrounded in a narrow valley, surrounded by enemies, with no strategic depth, and facing the Qin army, which was twice his size and occupied a favorable position, he could only be slaughtered.
The Chu army led by Xiang Liang was different, but the road to retreat from Hongnong to the east was cut off, and the army could still continue to advance westward and go straight to Huayin. Or to capture Hongnong, Shaanxi and Tianjin and other surrounding counties, and wait for help. Or they could collect boats to cross the Yellow River and go north into the territory of the Ji Kingdom, and then go east to the Tang Kingdom.
In short, Xiang Liang still has a lot of choices, and it is by no means the same as Tang Yu, who has no way out.
Xiang Yu ordered someone to erect a ladder in front of the tent, and personally climbed to overlook the Qin army coming from the east, "It seems that this Qin army does not have too many advantages in strength, and our army can completely counterattack and defeat it." β
Xiang Liang hesitated a little: "Bai Qi is known as the number one general of the Chu State, and he has gone on many expeditions before, but he has not tasted defeat. I think we'd better capture Hongnong City first and wait for reinforcements, right? β
Hongnong City is located at the junction of the Qin State and the Zhou royal family, currently controlled by the Zhou royal family, there are only about 2,000 soldiers and horses in the city, and 100,000 Chu troops can completely break the city with one drum.
But Xiang Yu showed a strong fighting spirit, drew his sword out of the sheath, and begged for battle in a loud voice: "Bai Qi has not tasted defeat but has not met our uncle and nephew. β
Zhong Liwu, Ji Bu, Yu Ziqi and others hugged their fists to support Xiang Yu: "We think that General Xiang is reasonable, and if he is unprepared, he may be able to have an unexpected gain." β
Xiang Liang pondered for a moment, and finally agreed: "Since you and the others are high-spirited, then launch an attack on the Qin army, and let Bai Qi taste the power of our Great Chu Xiong Division!" Let the people of Qin know that the soldiers of my Great Chu are also brave and warlike sons, and they are by no means lambs to be slaughtered. β
After Xiang Liang's response, Xiang Yu was overjoyed, and ordered Zhong Liwu to rate 30,000 people on the left, Ji Bu to rate 30,000 people on the right, himself and Yu Ziqi to rate 30,000 people in the middle, and Xiang Liang to lead 10,000 people to respond to the palace and rush to help at any time.
"Warriors of Great Chu, charge with me!"
Xiang Yu roared, flew under the black horse, carried the dragon halberd to break through the city, and led the 30,000 Chu army to rush straight to the Qin army formation.
"Charge in the footsteps of General Xiang Yi!"
Zhong Liwu and Ji Bu on both wings shouted, each brandished his weapon, and led the Chu army behind him to attack the Qin army all over the mountains.
The 90,000 Chu troops were divided into three groups, like a tiger descending from the mountain, and like a torrent raging, the smoke and dust of the trampling were rolling, and the tide was pouring towards the Qin army array.
"The Chu army actually took the initiative to attack our army?"
Seeing the menacing Chu army, Bai Qi was a little surprised, it seems that he underestimated Xiang Liang's uncle and nephew, this Chu army is simply different from the Chu army commanded by Tang Yu.
"Maybe that's what the saying goes, a nest of bears and a soldier bears, right?"
Bai Qi spat his saliva, drew his sword out of the sheath, and commanded the Qin army to move forward to meet the battle, "Zhang Han is on the left, Wang Ao is on the right, Ben General and Fan Yu are in the middle, each with 40,000 people, we must block the counterattack of the Chu army." β
"Kill, Great Qin will win, and the Chu army will be defeated!"
Under the command of Bai Qi, the Qin army was also divided into three groups, and all 120,000 soldiers were thrown into battle, their swords unsheathed, shouting and roaring to the west to meet the battle.
Between heaven and earth, the two armies were like the tide of hedging, and in the blink of an eye, they met on a narrow road, and the sound of the battle shook the sky and the earth, resounding through the valley.
First, the crossbowmen of both sides fired at each other, pouring a rain of arrows into each other's formation, and countless arrows fell to the ground, and screams came one after another.
Immediately after the two sides engaged in close combat, hundreds of thousands of soldiers raised their swords and guns, roared and shouted and slashed at each other, splattering blood everywhere and stumps everywhere.
"Da Chu Xiang is here, and those who stand in my way will die!"
Xiang Yu roared like thunder, the halberd flew, no one in front of the horse could stop it, and every time the halberd was split, it would take a life.
However, after a meal, there were more than 100 Qin troops who died under Xiang Yu's halberd, and their blood-stained robes were stained with blood, and their faces were covered with blood.
Under the leadership of Xiang Yu, the morale of the Chu army was high, and they all slashed with knives and stabbed with spears, and the Qin army led by Bai Qi, who was directly killed, retreated.
In the midst of the chaos, an eight-foot-tall Chu military captain charged bravely, the spear in his hand flew up and down, and every shot would knock over a Qin pawn, and no one could stop him close behind Xiang Yu.
The Qin army that died under his gun was not inferior to Xiang Yu, and also assassinated nearly 100 people.
"Hey...... What is the name of the school captain? β
Xiang Yu looked sideways, wielding a halberd to kill the enemy, and shouting loudly.
The lieutenant stabbed a shot, knocked a Qin army general off his horse, and loudly reported his name: "The villain Zhang Dingbian was promoted to captain by General Xiang a few days ago." β
Xiang Yu praised loudly: "Your martial arts are one of the few in our Great Chu, and today you are fighting bravely to kill the enemy, Xiang Yu is now promoting you to a partial general, and I hope to make persistent efforts!" β
"Thank you, General Xiang!"
Zhang Dingbian was excited, roared angrily, stabbed a soldier of the Qin State with a gun, and violently threw it into the Qin army formation with a gun, and knocked down another person.
"Isn't there a decent fierce general in the Qin State?"
Xiang Yu shouted violently, and the dragon halberd in his hand slashed down in the air, splitting a Qin army general in front of him into two, and the shocked Qin army shuddered, and subconsciously retreated.
Xiang Yu raised his head sharply, and found that Bai Qi's handsome banner was only about 1,500 zhang away from him, and he could vaguely see a general in his forties, who was commanding the Qin army to fight, and knew that this person was Bai Qi.
"Capture the thief and capture the king first, as long as the battle is beheaded, why worry about the Qin army being undefeated?"
Xiang Yu made up his mind and urged the horse to go forward and take the Qin army commander's banner, "Sons, keep up with my pace, go straight to the Qin army's commander's banner, and cut Bai Qi in front of the battle, so that the Qin State will know how powerful my Great Chu Xiong Division is!" β
The sound of horses' hooves rumbled, and the three thousand Chu State iron horsemen followed the steps of Xiang Yu and Zhang Dingbian, rushing through the Qin army's array like a dragon, and unstoppably rushing straight to the Qin army's marshal banner.
"Xiang Yuxiu is going to be rampant, Fan Yu is here!"
With a shout, a general was killed in the oblique stab, carrying a big axe, and led thousands of pikemen to block Xiang Yu's way. For mobile phone users, please browse M. Reading for a better reading experience.
