Chapter 148: Shou Chun Comes

Zhang Liang's words fell, and Xiang Liang also reacted!

Without catapults and siege equipment, it would be obviously impossible for this small Chengwu City to be taken down in a day or two! And now the catapults and siege equipment have been destroyed and burned by the cavalry of the Qin army, and there is not much left in the camp!

If you want to siege the city, how can you get on the city wall without siege equipment in the ladder? How do you break the city gate without hitting the cone? The most important thing is that without the cover of catapults, the Qin army can defend on the city wall unscrupulously!

It's good if the army has strong bows, but with the only thousands of strong bows in the army, I'm afraid that the Qin army will almost be wiped out with only one round of crossbow arrows on the city wall!

Now that all the timber stored in the camp has been burned, the trees must be cut down again if the contents of the catapult are to be recreated!

But twenty miles away from Mengshan, not to mention whether the road is far or near, just this hot weather is a very headache!

What a good plan! Xiang Liang sighed in his heart!

"What should I do now? Ovary! Xiang Liang was in a hurry, and hurriedly asked!

"For the sake of now, I can only give up the catapult! When I wait for the timber to be brought back to make the catapult, I'm afraid that the army of Meng Tian will also arrive! Fortunately, the big shield and other things in the army have not lost much! There are quite a few ladders! Now there's only one way to attack! General! Zhang Liang said helplessly!

"General, General, General!"

As soon as Zhang Liang's words fell, a burst of eager excited shouts came from outside the big tent!

"Why are you so alarmed!?" Xiang Liang's face sank and he said unhappily!

"Report to the General!" A personal guard lifted the curtain and bowed!

"What?"

"General! Major General, General Long and General Yingbu are back! The guard looked up and said excitedly!

"What?" Xiang Liang Huo got up and walked a few steps in a row, grabbed the guard, and asked!

"Great General, the Major General is back!" The guard said excitedly!

"Xiang Yu is back? Take General Ben with you! Take General Ben with you! Xiang Liang was extremely surprised and said incoherently!

"Xiang Yu, the general of the defeated army, meets the general! Please, General, punish you! ”

Before Xiang Liang's words fell, Xiang Yu's voice had already sounded outside the big tent! At the same time, there were also the voices of Long Ji and Yingbu who pleaded for sin!

Xiang Liang heard Xiang Yu's voice, and hurriedly opened the big tent and walked out!

I saw Xiang Yu, who was dressed in strips of cloth, kneeling on the ground, and behind Xiang Yu were the two of Long and Yingbu, who were also in rags!

Xiang Liang took two steps to help Xiang Yu up, and said with tears: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back!" ”

"My nephew is not filial, which makes my uncle worried!" Looking at Xiang Liang, who was revealing his true feelings, Xiang Yu's eyes were also red!

Xiang Liang straightened Xiang Yu's messy hair with his hand, patted him on the shoulder with pity, then let go of Xiang Yu, and helped Long Heying, who was also kneeling on the ground, one by one: "The two virtuous nephews have suffered!" ”

Xiang Liang inherited the style of his father Xiang Yan, who has always had only superiors and subordinates and no relatives in the army, but this time he uncharacteristically called Yingbu and Long He virtuous nephews instead of in the army, which has made it very clear that there is no intention to hold them accountable for the three defeated generals!

"Suspend the siege! Treat the whole army tonight! Xiang Liang held Yingbu in one hand and the dragon in the other, and said loudly!

"Whoa!"

The guards next to him are all members of the Xiang family, and they are all sincerely happy about Xiang Yu's return!

When the news came out, Xiang Liang's army suddenly came with cheers, as if they had won a big victory instead of defeating the battle! However, in this short hour or two of battle, it is really difficult to say who will win and who will lose!

In an hour or two, the number of elite soldiers killed by the Qin army reached nearly 4,000 for the first time! And these more than 4,000 people are all elite Qin troops guarding Hu Hai to the north, not ordinary people! And most of these elite Qin troops died under the trebuchet of Xiang Liang's army! Among them, there were more than 2,000 wounded soldiers of the Qin army! Nearly 3,000 people were killed and more than 2,000 wounded!

In less than two hours, Hu Hai's 30,000 army suffered one-third of the casualties! The most important thing is that the casualties of the elite Qin army have reached the point of breaking their muscles and bones!

Fortunately, the Xuanwu Army is still there, and there are still 6,000 elite soldiers!

And the casualties of Xiang Liang's army, not counting yesterday's casualties, today the casualties of the siege should be more than 20,000 people!

One side attacked the city, the other side defended the city, and the casualties were two to one.

This ratio really can't be said that the Qin army won! If you really want to calculate it according to the actual combat effectiveness, the Qin army should be regarded as the losing side!

By the time Fan Shui got the news and rushed to Xiang Liang's Zhongjun tent, Xiang Yu, Long Ji and Yingbu were already wearing brand new armor, and they were in good spirits after washing!

For the first time since the start of the war, Xiang Liang held a banquet in the army to entertain the generals!

However, the atmosphere of the feast was a little weird!

All the remnants of the Six Kingdoms and the generals in the army praised Xiang Yu's return in unison, then this battle will be won, it seems that as long as Xiang Yu goes out of the horse and becomes a martial city in the next moment, the city has been broken, and then Hu Hai's head has been sent to Xiang Liang!

But no one mentioned the annihilation of the 60,000 Baiyue barbarians led by Xiang Yu and the three of them!

However, the more they didn't mention it, the more resentful Xiang Yu felt in his heart!

The surprise, doubt, incomprehension, and resentful eyes of the Jiangdong guards who were killed by him before they died have always been deeply engraved in Xiang Yu's heart! It's tormenting him all the time!

Maybe it was because Xiang Yu was not very interested as the protagonist, but everyone also knew it in their hearts, and the noisy tent gradually quieted down!

As the head coach, Xiang Liang sat on the top of the big tent, below him was Zhang Liang on the left, Fan Zeng on the right, and Xiang Yu was sitting under Xiang Liang's seat! Since the beginning of the feast, Xiang Liang has been smiling and watching many remnants of the Six Kingdoms spare no effort to praise Xiang Yu, only occasionally looking at Xiang Yu who was drinking silently with strong pity, and then respecting Zhang Liang and Fan Zengyao who were laughing and groaning!

When the big tent was quiet, Xiang Liang got up and said: "Today, thank you to the ancestors of the Xiang clan for letting the little nephew Xiang Yu return safely!" Ben will give you a toast! Dry! ”

"General Xie!"

Xiang Liang personally toasted, and the generals in the tent and the remnants of the six countries got up one after another, bowed down and thanked him!

After everyone finished drinking and put down the wine bottle, Xiang Liang picked up a glass of wine again and said, "The second glass of wine, this general wants to respect Fan Lao!" Dry! ”

Xiang Liang didn't say why, it seems that everything is unspoken!

Fan Zeng hurriedly got up, bowed to Xiang Liang Yaoyao, and drank all the wine in the wine bottle!

"This third glass of wine, General Ben is going to pay tribute to the ovary room! If there is no ovary to guide us all the way, I think our army will definitely not be able to encircle the Qin Emperor in this Chengwu City! Please! ”

"General, please!" Zhang Liang got up and saluted Xiang Liang with a smile!

"For this fourth cup of wine, General Ben wants to apologize to all the clan elders who sit down again on behalf of my nephew! Tens of thousands of Yue people died in other places! This hatred, Xiang Liangdan has a chance to live, and he will definitely take off the head of the Qin Emperor to comfort the souls of tens of thousands of Yue people in the sky! ”

Xiang Liang bowed to the dozens of Baiyue clan elders sitting in the big tent, and said earnestly!

"The general is serious! Since we are here to oppose Qin, the Qin people are fierce, and many sons and daughters have already had the will to die! From now on, all the tribes of Baiyue will definitely only look forward to the general! As soon as the general has an order, all the clans of Baiyue will definitely help! ”

A strong old man with a gray head, but still wearing a ** upper body, and bulging muscles seems to be the leader of all ethnic groups in Baiyue, bowing to Xiang Liang and saying angrily!

"I'm waiting for the only general to look forward!"

The strong old man's voice fell, and dozens of ** Baiyue clan elders with their shoulders stood up and said loudly!

"Liang, thank you clan elders!"

Xiang Liang fell to the ground deeply at the dozens of Baiyue clan elders who got up!

Seeing this, Fan Zeng and Zhang Liang next to them secretly glanced at each other and smiled!

"Today, Liang still has something to tell you!"

After drinking, waiting for dozens of Baiyue clan elders to sit down, Xiang Liang said loudly!

"Now, the Qin people and the great general Meng Tian are leading more than 100,000 starry nights to come to the aid of Emperor Qin!"

Xiang Liang's words fell, and the big tent suddenly fell into a dead silence, and then the remnants of the six countries and many generals in the tent were in an uproar!

"The general forgives the sin, dare to ask the general if this letter is accurate??" Soon, a remnant of the Six Kingdoms stood up and asked for verification!

Xiang Liang smiled at the question of the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, and then said loudly: "Everyone be quiet! When the big tent quieted down, Xiang Liang continued: "This letter is true! Now that I think that Meng Tian has crossed the Yellow River, he will definitely be able to reach this Chengwu in three days at the latest! ”

One stone stirs up a thousand waves!

Who is Meng Tian? The invincible pillar stone of the Qin State!

Although Xiang Liang now has more than 300,000 troops, everyone here knows that these more than 300,000 people have no way to take others against the more than 10,000 Qin troops of the Qin Emperor, so when Meng Tian's more than 100,000 Jiuyuan army arrives in Chengwu, Xiang Liang's 300,000 army is afraid that it will be defeated in a battle!

At that time, it was not whether he wanted Emperor Qin's life, but whether Emperor Qin wanted their life!

The remnants of the six countries in the big tent were all worried in their hearts, their faces were pale, and their eyes showed panic!

Seeing these remnants of the Six Kingdoms like this, Xiang Liang's eyes showed a few sneers!

"What does the general command! Just say it! ”

It's still the remnant of the Six Kingdoms who spoke earlier!

Xiang Liang recognized him, Tian An, a nobleman of Qi State! I didn't expect this Tian An to be a little bold!

"After the feast, the whole army began to attack the city! If we can't capture this little Chengwu at night, then it will be the time for us to die! However, as long as Cheng Wu is broken and Emperor Qin is in hand, even if Meng Tian leads 300,000 Jiuyuan troops to come, what are we afraid of? ”

The reason why Xiang Liang chose to hold a banquet today was not only to exonerate Xiang Yu, but to put pressure on these bereaved clans of the Six Kingdoms who were eating together, so that they knew that the danger was in front of them, and if Cheng Wu couldn't take it, then they should soon flee with him!

"Report!"

Outside the big tent, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves, followed by a loud report from Xiang Liang's personal guards!

"What?"

"General Hui, Shouchun is coming!"
