After Han Xin arranged everything, he took advantage of the night to lead his troops to the direction of Pengcheng, preparing to attack Pengcheng around the time, when Wang Ling happened to send troops to confront the Chu army head-on, so that it could not be supported back and forth.

In the Chu camp, Xiang Yu had already completed the army, and he didn't know anything about Han Xin's sneak attack on Pengcheng.

Xiang Yu had an impulsive personality, and when he heard that the Han army was coming to scold, he was furious, and immediately led the crowd to meet the battle, Zhou Lan, Ji Bu, and Zhong Liwu were all around him, and the 100,000 army was waiting for him.

And Wang Ling only had 60,000 on his side, but he was not afraid of Xiang Yu at all, and replied directly in front of the prancing horse formation, "The overlord of Western Chu is unpopular, surrender as soon as possible, you can avoid a life, why is this so, you don't know the current affairs, and you want to fight with the sky?" ”

"Where are you boy, dare to shout in front of the battle, where are Han Xin and Liu Bang, quickly answer in front of the battle, you wait for the child, don't be embarrassed here!" Xiang Yu said rather sarcastically.

"My Han King and the general are noble people, so fighting against a puppet like you, wouldn't it be a loss of etiquette, if you want to see the Han King, pass me first!" Wang Ling said as he rode forward.

Zhong Liwu next to Xiang Yu also went out to fight, the two sides fought for fifty rendezvous, regardless of victory or defeat, Wang Ling fought for such a long time, presumably the time was almost up, so he hurriedly rode back.

The Han army in the rear saw the front waving the flag, immediately rushed towards the Chu army, the overlord was naturally not afraid, and the generals fought bravely to kill the enemy, the two sides fought for a long time, Wang Lingsuo led the army at a disadvantage, immediately Ming Jin retreated.

Xiang Yu saw that Wang Ling had collected his troops, and knew that he was not standing, and wanted to lead the army to pursue, but Ji Bu next to him hurriedly admonished: "The road to the road is rugged, I am afraid that something will happen, the king should not chase in a hurry, he should go back to the camp to rest." ”

"Today, the Han army is 60,000 or 70,000, all of them are defeated generals, what is there to fear, all the generals will kill the Han generals with me, so westward, it is like destroying the withering and decaying." Xiang Yu stopped saying that, and immediately rushed forward.

Zhou Lan was about to speak, but how did she know that Xiang Yu and Zhong Liwu had already led the army forward, Zhou Lan and Ji Bu frowned slightly, "General Ji Bu, what should we do?" ”

"Don't worry, now that the Chu army of 100,000 is gathered in one place, even if there is an ambush, it may not be able to defeat us, and you can go with the king." Ji Bu said very decisively.

"But what if the Han army hijacks the camp in the rear?" Zhou Lan then said.

Ji Bu was beside him, and immediately rode forward, "General Zhou doesn't have to worry, if the Chu camp is occupied, we will attack the Han camp, after all, there is a loss before there is a gain!" ”

Zhou Lan thought about it for a while, and rushed forward with the army, Wang Ling saw that the overlord led the army to chase after him, and his heart was overjoyed, at this time Li Zuoche had already buried the crossbowmen on the left and right.

At this time, Fan Xu on the Jiuli Tomb learned that the overlord was going to pursue the royal tomb, and immediately waved the flag, and Xiahou Ying and Zhou Bo around the Chu camp led 20,000 horses and horses directly into the Chu military camp.

Now in the Chu camp, there are only three people, Xiang Zhuang, Xiang Bo, and Yu Ji, and more than 1,000 soldiers.

Xiang Bo and Xiang Zhuang immediately prepared horses to protect Yu Ji and left, did not go to Pengcheng, but also wanted the overlord to withdraw his troops to fight back, Xiahou Ying according to Han Xin's instructions, did not occupy the Chu camp, but set fire to the grain camp tent, and then led the army to meet in the meeting of Guanying Cao, if nothing else, Xiang Yu will definitely withdraw from Pengcheng.

The overlord pursued Wang Ling without mentioning it, and said that when Han Xin led his army to Pengcheng overnight, the city gate was closed and there were not many guards, so Han Xin immediately ordered people to set up a ladder to attack.

More than 2,000 Chu troops in the city, all of them are old, weak, sick and disabled, how to withstand Han Xin's 20,000 soldiers, so attacking the city, like destroying the withering and decaying, the city will be occupied in a moment, and the hundred officials of the Chu State will be killed, and the edict will be issued, and go to the periphery of Pengcheng, if they surrender, they will be treated well, if they do not vote, then the Han army will immediately go to attack the city.

As everyone knows, since Han Xin's siege of the city, the surrounding counties have all heard the wind and surrendered, and before noon, Chu was reduced to Han soil, and Han Xin successively sent Han troops to accept various cities.

Pengcheng was lost, not to mention, and said that the overlord pursued the Han army for more than 20 miles and killed more than 1,000 Han troops, but when the overlord army was rising, he was falling into Li Zuoche's trap.

At this time, Wang Ling led the army and did not abscond, the overlord saw this, his heart was overjoyed, and he was about to step forward to capture and kill Wang Ling, and suddenly, the Han army on the left and right hills emerged.

Suddenly, the arrows flew together, like clouds and rain, and the Chu army was shocked, "King, there is really a fraud, what should I do!" Zhong Liwu said first.

"Don't panic, generals, retreat in an orderly manner!" Xiang Yu shouted at the same time, but the arrows were like rain, the Chu army was like ants, and in less than a moment, more than 20,000 people fell.

The Chu army panicked instantly, and all ran backwards, among which the trampling of the dead did not know how to go, Xiang Yu had no choice but to lead the army to flee to Pengcheng, and met Yu Ji on the way, only to know that the Chu camp was burned.

Wang Ling and Li Zuoche joined forces together, went to pursue, and wanted to capture the overlord alive, at this time Xiang Yu led the Chu army of only more than 40,000, unable to retreat in an orderly manner, resulting in trampling and death of as many as 20,000, and the Han army behind, the wounded will definitely die.

At Jiuli Mountain, Xiang Yu reorganized his army slightly, and without waiting for Wang Ling to chase after him, he quickly rushed towards Pengcheng, but at this moment, Guan Ying, Zhou Bo, Cao Shen, and Xiahou Ying had already been ambushed.

The Chu army left the Chu camp for about thirty miles, and encountered the Han army again, and couldn't help but panic, Xiang Yu immediately led the army to respond to the battle in a hurry, and only wanted to return to Pengcheng as soon as possible.

Therefore, he fought with the four generals of the Han Dynasty for half an hour, losing more than 20,000 soldiers, and Wang Ling also chased from the rear at this moment, and many Han soldiers joined forces and went straight to Pengcheng.

Xiang Yu saw that Pengcheng was not far ahead, and he was quite happy in his heart, but as soon as he came to Pengcheng ten miles away, he saw the remnants of Chu fleeing from Pengcheng.

Zhong Li hurriedly stepped forward to arrest Chu Shu, and only after asking did he learn that Pengcheng had been occupied by Han Xin, and then the Han army pursued the soldiers at this moment, and the overlord was also a little panicked at the moment, and immediately summoned Zhou Lan and Ji Bu to ask for a strategy.

The overlord's face was quite guilty, "I regret not listening to the words of the second general, which caused the Chu army to be defeated and Pengcheng lost. ”

Ji Bu immediately stepped forward and said: "King Qiqi, now Pengcheng has been lost, can not move forward, for today's plan, first rush to the south to Qixia, and then to cross the river, and then return to Wuzhong, and then reorganize the army to fight with the Han." ”

"Ji Bu said very much, since Emperor Yi moved out of Wuzhong, the people have been recuperating for several years, the king has lived in Pengcheng for a long time, only from Huiji to transport grain, but there are still tens of thousands of soldiers, is fundamental." Zhou Lan then said.

Xiang Yu nodded when he heard this, "In that case, the whole army will go to Xiaxia." ”

At this time, Wang Ling and others also chased after them from the rear, and when they saw Xiang Yu going to Yuanxia, they joined forces with Han Xin, arranged everything, and directly led the troops to Qixia to pursue the Chu army.

After this new defeat in Pengcheng, the 100,000 soldiers of the Chu army, the dead were killed, the wounded were wounded, and those who fled, leaving only 8,000 children, all of whom were surrounded by the Han army.
