Chapter 32: Overlord Xiang Yu

"My lord, what are we going to do?"

One of Tong Er's personal soldiers asked anxiously.

From time to time, there were screams from Tong Er's team, and those soldiers kept being hit by arrows, and many people were extremely frightened.

Tong Er's mind was turned around, and it would take at least 60 steps to break through the armor with the power of the firecracker, and this was still without reducing the gunpowder.

This means that they must charge forward 140 steps (210 meters) to damage the enemy, but it will take at least 30 seconds to charge 140 steps while fully clothed.

When it came to range, the daylilies were cold.

Looking at the soldiers with frightened faces, Tong Er quickly realized that this battle was going to be lost soon.

"Order all soldiers to charge!"

Tong Er said viciously.

At the same time, he also made up his mind to escape, only by letting these infantry stop the enemy, he could escape the pursuit of the enemy.

"What did you say?"

The soldier looked surprised, their infantry charging at the enemy? Isn't that a death sentence?

"I said let you all charge, didn't you hear?"

Tong Er said viciously again.

Feiwei had been observing Tong Er, who had been staring at this officer for a long time.

After seeing that the musketeers were basically killed, he immediately shot his horse and rushed out, and then shot an arrow at Tong Er.

Tong Er never thought that there would be people who would always think about him.

When he finished speaking, he felt a pain in his throat.

He reached for his throat and found that an arrow had pierced his throat.

"This ......"

Tong Er's face was in disbelief, was he really going to die?

He doesn't want to die!

"My lord, what's wrong with you?"

The soldier said with a look of horror.

Listening to the frightened words of the soldier, those infantry quickly became strange.

"Your Excellency is dead."

Soon someone said with a panicked face.

More and more people are discovering this situation, and their morale, which was already close to collapse, is rapidly crumbling.

And Mao Wenlong quickly discovered this situation, so he shouted loudly: "The enemy general is dead, everyone shout with me." ”

"The enemy general is dead!"

"The enemy general is dead!"

“……”

After receiving Mao Wenlong's order, his subordinates hurriedly shouted.

Their voices grew louder and more neat.

Soon all the burgers found out about it.

One of the soldiers threw down his weapon and began to flee.

With the first there will be a second, and soon more and more people will join the fleeing band.

After seeing that the enemy's team began to collapse, Mao Wenlong couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"Everybody chase me!"

Mao Wenlong shouted loudly.

After receiving Mao Wenlong's order, all the cavalry and infantry immediately began to chase and kill.

Faced with this situation, none of the burgers were willing to come back and resist.

Each of them knew they were finished, and their best hope was to escape faster than anyone else.

When it comes to pursuit, the advantage of cavalry is relatively large.

Lu Yan and his cavalry pursued and killed for half an hour before returning.

Everyone's horses were full of heads before they returned, and in the end there were few enemies who could escape the cavalry.

The war was finally won, and Lu Yan was a little worried when he was happy.

The number of soldiers under his command is slowly increasing, and the rest and replacement of weapons also need to be put on the agenda, and they can no longer be replenished by capture as before.

And many of their weapons are different from the standards of the Ming Dynasty, the most typical such as the Divine Arm Bow, the crossbow of the Divine Arm Bow is much shorter than that of the Ming Dynasty.

If you want to add it, you have to make it yourself.

Lu Yan secretly thought to himself, maybe he should summon some craftsmen.

And the rewards of this battle are also very rich, Lu Yan has obtained 4,800 points of combat merits, which is the first time that Lu Yan has obtained so many combat merits.

But in the face of the encirclement and suppression of the next Jurchens, this military achievement was almost a drop in the bucket, and in history, the Jurchens sent 5,000 troops to pacify Zhenjiang Fort.

And now he has to find a good general for himself.

After all, now that the number of his soldiers is about to exceed two hundred, he needs a suitable future to lead these soldiers, and he can't let them fight on their own as before.

Lu Yan kept selecting among those generals, and finally his eyes finally stopped at a person who was famous all over the world.

******

******

In a dense forest on the east mountain of Zhendong, a majestic man with a height of eight feet, heavy eyes, and a face like a heavy jujube appeared in front of him.

I saw him holding a Chu halberd, wearing a black gold armor, a tiger skin red robe on his back, a treasure knife at his waist, and riding a black horse with black in blue and white.

Although he didn't make any moves, Lu Yan felt as if he was facing an extremely dangerous beast.

Lu Yan looked at him with admiration, this is the overlord of Western Chu, who is known as the first fierce general in the ages.

Wujiang easily slaughtered hundreds of Han troops in the first battle, and in the end he didn't want to live anymore, so he came to Wujiang to kill himself.

If this were not the case, it might be possible to fight a thousand against a thousand.

can have this fierce general under his command, what are the regrets in this life.

"Lu Yan has seen the overlord!"

Lu Yan said very respectfully.

That's right, the military general summoned by Lu Yan this time is the invincible overlord Xiang Yu in Chinese history.

Since ancient times, it is estimated that only Xiang Yu can barely compete with it in terms of force.

"If you want this overlord to work for you, you have to promise me two things."

The overlord's words surprised Lu Yan, he never thought that Xiang Yu would make conditions with him, this was the first time he had encountered such a thing.

"Overlord, please speak."

Lu Yan smiled faintly.

"In my previous life, King Ben brought eight thousand Jiangdong disciples across Jiangdong, but they all died with me. If you can resurrect them, this Overlord is willing to fight for you. ”

There was a hint of sadness on the overlord's face.

Lu Yan only thought about it for a while, and then agreed.

Sure enough, he is worthy of being a bully who values love and righteousness, although he is not as ruthless as a hero, but such an overlord is even more admirable.

"I don't think it's a problem, it's just not possible for a short time."

Xiang Yu also knew Lu Yan's difficulties, so he nodded in agreement, and then continued: "Second, I hope you can resurrect my Yu Ji. Back then, our army was surrounded by the Han army on all sides, and Yu Ji actually killed herself in order not to drag me down, and I have always felt deeply sorry for her. ”

Hearing this, Lu Yan's expression moved, and he remembered the historical record of Yu Ji.

Yu Ji often went out with Xiang Yu, in the later stage of the Chu and Han wars, Xiang Yu tended to lose, in 202 BC, was besieged by the Han army (now southeast of Lingbi County, Anhui Province), the soldiers were few and the food was exhausted, and the night heard that it was embattled, and the general trend of mourning had gone.

Facing Yu Ji, he drank wine in the camp tent and sang sadly: "Pull out the mountain and cover the world, the times are not good, the skulls will not pass away, what can I do, what can I do?" The lyrics are desolate and tragic, and the feelings are full of compassion, which is known as "Song of the Fall".

At this time, this powerful figure also revealed the lament of children's love and heroic shortness. Yu Ji, who was accompanying her, suddenly drew her sword and danced, and sang to it: "The Han soldiers have skimmed, and the Quartet is singing; The king is exhausted, and the concubine is not alive. ”

(Historically known as "Song of the Return" or "Song of the Harmony")

The song is self-slaughtering, with the private feelings of Xiang Yu's worries, stimulating Xiang Yu's fighting spirit, hoping to break through the siege victoriously, and buried under the wall after his death, Xiang Yu, who was inspired by Yu Ji, really fought his way out of the encirclement.

When he thought of the loyal and strong Yu Ji, Lu Yan was fascinated for a while, not knowing if he could meet his own Yu Ji in his life.

Lu Yan quickly found Yu Ji, and he even asked for 1,000 battle merits.

Although this number was a bit much, Lu Yan unceremoniously agreed.

"I don't think there's a problem, but not yet, I guess I'll have to wait two years."

As long as you can see Shangyu Ji, 1,000 points of combat merit is nothing.

"Thank you so much, just tell me anything in the future. No matter who dares to offend you, this overlord will take his life for you, even if he goes up the sword mountain and down the sea of fire. ”

Soon, the overlord Xiang Yu said arrogantly.

"Thank you so much for that."

Lu Yan also laughed.

Soon Lu Yan suppressed these thoughts, and then summoned other troops.

10 elite crossbowmen of the Northern Song Dynasty, 50 soldiers of the trap battalion, and 50 arms bearers of the Qi family.

Since the next battle will be to defend the city, Lu Yan's summoning is mainly long-range troops.

Not to mention those god-arm crossbowmen, the performance in the last battle was very good, which made him feel very satisfied.

The trapping camp is even more famous in the world, with the reputation of every attack, invincible, once defeated Liu Beijun with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, is an invincible division of the Three Kingdoms.

Lu Yan observed the equipment of the sinking camp, covered in heavy armor, holding a five-meter spear, a long knife tied to his waist, immediately carrying a heavy crossbow, and some of them were also holding shields, which were really armed to the teeth.

Not to mention the firecrackers of the Qi family's army, there were two armies in ancient China that had never been defeated since they became an army, one of which was the Yuejia army, and the other was the Qijia army.

Qi Jiajun's bird gun is very well-made, made by craftsmen in Jiangsu and Zhejiang with the best craftsmanship in the Ming Dynasty at that time, and there is no danger of exploding.

Moreover, the marksmanship of the Qi family's military bird gunner is very superb, and the second shot from a hundred steps away hits a humanoid target is qualified, which is very rare in the era of smoothbore guns.

In addition to this, he also summoned more than a dozen craftsmen of various kinds, who not only had to repair equipment for Lu Yan's army, but also needed them to make bows and arrows.

Of course, if there are not enough people, Lu Yan will allow them to recruit helpers among the Mingren.

After explaining some things to them, he took them to Zhenjiang Fort.

Of course, Xiang Yu's identity is the second leader of the horse thief, and Lu Yan proposed to let him change his name slightly, after all, the name of the overlord is too loud, and it is definitely known to the world.

But the overlord refused without hesitation, he was a dignified overlord, he didn't change his name, he didn't change his surname, how could he change his name for such a small reason.

In the end, Lu Yan was so angry that he could only rack his brains to think about how to round this name.

After learning that Xue Rengui had sent more than 100 reinforcements again, Mao Wenlong was immediately overjoyed.

He not only greeted him in person, but also added Xiang Yu as a garrison on the spot, which made everyone stunned.

So then Mao Wenlong ordered Chen Zhong, Xiang Yu and others to attack everywhere and kill the nearby Jurchens.

On July 23, the first year of the Apocalypse, Xiang Yu, Chen Zhong and others led a team up the river and killed more than 500 people, including the salt tax guerrilla Miao Yizhen.

After learning that the Ming army had occupied Zhenjiang Fort, Chen Jiujie and Li Shike, the fort officials of Tangshan and Xianshan, were tied up by the people and dedicated to Mao Wenlong.

Kuandian, Sanyang area also surrendered one after another, hundreds of miles of the castle to look at the wind and return, a large number of people with beef and wine came to reward the Ming army, Mao Wenlong's prestige was resounding to the extreme for a while.

At the same time, a large number of elite horsemen were sent from Zhenjiang Fort to kill the nearby Jurchens, and the Jurchens within a radius of hundreds of miles were almost all culled.

On the first day of the eighth month, Mao Wenlong's envoy to Xinbao was killed by Zhao guerrillas, and Mao Wenlong was furious.

Under the persuasion of Lu Yan, Mao Wenlong ordered Xiang Yu to lead the team to attack at night, and then successfully broke the city, killing more than 1,000 enemies overnight and capturing countless people.
