The night was dark, and the baby escorted Liu Bang into a small village in a panic.

The people in the small village had already fled the mountains, and they didn't even leave a grain of grain, and they couldn't find anything to eat after looking for the baby for a long time, so they had to take a bamboo jar and fill Liu Bang with a jar of water.

Liu Bang looked at the clear water in the bamboo jar in front of him, and suddenly thought of yesterday's battle of Shuishui, and then thought of the 600,000 army that was wiped out once, and he didn't feel sadness coming from it, so he covered his face with his hands and howled loudly, Liu Bang was sad, after the defeat of the battle of Shuishui, the Chu army would definitely attack Guanzhong on a large scale, and at that time, how could the Han army resist?

Guan Ying and the soldiers of the Han army next to him also looked sad.

Thinking about a few months ago, when the Han army marched out of the pass, how magnificent the military appearance was, and how confident the monarchs and ministers were, but I never thought that in the end, it would end up like this.

Guan Ying sighed and said in a low voice: "King, you have to take care of your body." ”

It's okay if the baby is not persuaded, but this persuasion, Liu Bang cried more and more sadly.

At this moment, a fast horse suddenly rushed into the small village like a storm, and the knight on horseback jumped off his horse, fell on one knee and panted to report: "My lord, the pursuers have arrived!" ”

"Huh? The pursuers are coming so fast! When Guan Ying looked up to the south, he saw that there were already dots of fire under the dark night sky, Guan Ying's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly got up and shouted at the cavalry soldiers around him, "Put out the torches, get on the horse, everyone get on the horse, quick, hurry up......"

Guan Ying knows very well that the Chu army is powerful, and this cavalry in his hand must not be invincible, for today's plan, only to break through in the dark, as for how many people can break through in the end, only God knows, but no matter what, even if he dies, he will definitely protect the King of Han to break out of the encirclement!

The faintly burning torches were extinguished. More than 100 riders such as Guan Ying also turned over and got on their horses, preparing to break through.

However, before the fire in front of him approached, another man took advantage of the night to touch the entrance of the small village, and Guan Ying was shocked to see that many black shadows suddenly appeared like ghosts at the entrance of the village. Immediately instructed the deputy general Guan Zhong and said: "Guan Zhong, you lead people to protect the king from behind to break through, I will stop these damn Chu Guoyan, quickly!" ”

"Whoa!" Guan Zhong responded with a bang, and picked up half of the cavalry to turn around and leave.

At this moment, a surprised voice suddenly came from the entrance of the village: "It's the baby general in front?!" ”

The baby was stunned when he heard this, why does this voice sound familiar? If you look back carefully, isn't it the uncle and grandson of Yulin Zhonglang? At that moment, the baby was also surprised and said inexplicably: "It's the uncle and grandson general outside?" ”

"It's the last general!" The voice answered, and hundreds of torches were lit at the entrance of the village. In the bright firelight, riding a prancing horse and crossing the halberd, who else is not the uncle and grandson of Yulin Zhonglang? Behind Uncle Sun Ying, there are nearly 1,000 horsemen, all of whom are the most elite Yulin cavalry of the Han Kingdom.

Uncle Sun Ying was followed by a person, and it was the military advisor Zhang Liang.

Entering the village, Zhang Liang rushed to the infant and said, "General Infant, have you ever seen the king?" ”

It turned out that the uncle and grandson had already taken the trilogy to highlight the encirclement. It was only after breaking through that he found that the king was missing, and the surprise of his uncle and grandson was really extraordinary, so he quickly led people back to find Liu Bang the same way, and fought with the Chu army all the way, but he never found Liu Bang's whereabouts, and he didn't want to meet the baby here when he had nothing to do.

Guan Ying hurriedly said: "The good teacher knows that the king is here." ”

The voice fell, and Liu Bang turned out behind the baby, and said in a trembling voice: "Ovary." Is that you? ”

"King, the minister is here, here!" Zhang Liang hurriedly turned over and dismounted, Liu Bang also rolled the saddle and dismounted, and the monarchs and ministers immediately hugged their heads and cried.

Guan Ying looked up at the long line of torches that were getting closer and closer in front of him, and said anxiously: "King, military advisor, this is not a place to talk, please leave quickly, and the minister will intercept the pursuers!" But Uncle Sun Ying waved his hand. Said: "General Guan Ying, you protect the king and the military division go first, and as for the chasing soldiers, it will be handed over to the last general!" ”

After saying that, Uncle Sun Ying immediately turned around, raised his halberd and led it forward, and shouted loudly, "Sons and daughters of Yu Linwei, it's time to fulfill your oath and follow General Ben...... Kill! "Liu Bang's 3,000 Lin Wei were all selected from the children of the nobles, and at the beginning of joining, he had sworn a blood oath to protect the King of Han to the death.

Not to mention that Uncle Sun Ying led the troops to intercept and kill the pursuers, just said that Guan Ying protected Liu Bang and Zhang Liang to the north for less than ten miles, and there was a tidal sound of horses' hooves behind him.

Guan Ying was about to fight to the death, but a familiar voice suddenly came from the front: "Old Guan, let me chase after it!" ”

"Wang Sue?!" Guan Ying was surprised and delighted, and couldn't believe it, "Didn't you be ordered to stay in the camp?" You're not dead? ”

More than a dozen torches lit up, and the Han general Wang Suck rushed out of the fire surrounded by dozens of elite riders, Wang Suchong rolled his eyes, and said angrily: "I didn't have anything good to say when I first met, what about the king?" "It turned out that it was not the Chu army that was chasing from afar just now, but the Han army led by Wang Su.

Guan Ying pointed behind him with his hand and said, "The king and the military advisor are in front." ”

As soon as the words fell, a small army of horsemen beside Wang Suo had already galloped forward.

Guan Ying was stunned, Wang Su spread his hands and explained: "Old Guan, that's Mr. Chen Ping." ”

After a while, the uncle and grandson also chased after the royal forest guard, and at that moment, the baby, Wang Su, and the uncle and grandson were together, and they came north, and soon caught up with Liu Bang and Zhang Liang.

Besides, when Liu Bang, Zhang Liang and Chen Ping met, the three of them hugged their heads and cried for a while.

Liu Bang said to Zhang Liang and Chen Ping while crying: "Ovary, Chen Ping, this disaster is over, and the Han Dynasty will die in ...... future."

Zhang Liang choked up and couldn't make a sound, but Chen Ping patted Liu Bang on the shoulder and comforted in a low voice: "The king doesn't have to be sad, the army of Chu can't catch up, and the Han country can't die!" ”

As soon as the white spear woke up, he felt lightheaded, standing up and walking a few steps was like stepping on cotton, and the light and fluttering feet had no roots and no foundation, which was very uncomfortable, and the white spear grabbed the tent and poked his head into the bucket and poured it wildly, and was soaked in cool cold water, and the whole person was a lot more comfortable, and the white spear didn't care much.

Just after breakfast, the horn of the assembly sounded.

The white spear carried the riding bow and the ring knife, and dismantled and folded the tent, and then put it into the canvas bag, and then wrapped the canvas behind the saddle and bound it, and then turned over and went to assemble outside the camp, however, the white spear always felt that the sun was a little dazzling this morning, and the body was not very strong, could it be that yesterday's fight was too fierce and lacking?

The dozens of horsemen under the command of the White Spear were not much better, all of them were listless and yawning.

In fact, not only the group of white spears, the groups of Chu troops who entered the Han army camp with them yesterday to grab prisoners of war all had the same situation, but compared to hundreds of thousands of Chu troops, the strangeness of a few hundred people is really nothing, and these Chu troops are all strong guys, and they can stand up for the time being, let alone attract attention.

Looking at the slumped subordinates, Bai Mao frowned, cheered up and shouted: "Cheer up Lao Tzu, don't fucking wilt as if you have been sucked dry by the girls, hum!" ”

When Xiang Zhuang walked out of the big tent surrounded by Xiang Tuo, Bi Shu, Bai Lixian and other important civil and military officials, the army of more than 300,000 Chu had almost completed the assembly, and the tents on the river beach were almost all pulled out.

Qu Bucai stepped forward quickly and handed a secret letter to Xiang Zhuang.

Xiang Zhuang hurriedly finished the secret letter and couldn't help but change his face slightly, turned his head and said to Bi Shu and Bai Lixian: "Learn the sword, Ziliang, last night Lu Tai and Zhou Guanfu had already crossed the water east with 50,000 cavalry!" ..., Bi Shu frowned and said: "This Lu Tai, it seems that he still has a few skills." ”

The Chu army has already left an ambush on the road, if Lu Tai leads the army north, it will definitely be ambushed by the Chu army, but Lu Tai unexpectedly led the army to the east to cross the water, which is a bit tricky, because there is such a huge Han army, if they are not ignored, they will definitely turn the Nanjun, Hengshan and Jiujiang counties in Jiangbei upside down!

If you send troops to chase and kill, it must be cavalry, otherwise you can't catch up at all, and the number of troops can't be too small, otherwise it is easy to be bitten by the Han army. But the problem is that if too many cavalry are dispatched to pursue and kill the Lutai army, it will inevitably affect the plan of quickly attacking Guanzhong.

However, Xiang Zhuang has never been an indecisive person, and he soon made a decision.

After a moment of silence, Xiang Zhuang instructed Xiang Tuo: "Ziyan, order Jiang Ji to clear the obstacles in Liyutan as soon as possible, and then go south along the river, block the river, and block the passage of the Lutai army to cross the river south; Let Meng Yan lead 50,000 cavalry to follow and kill, and then let Yu Ziqi lead the army into Hengshan to intercept it. ”

Xiang Zhuang's arrangement can be said to be leaky, with Jiang Ji's army blocking the Yangtze River, the Han cavalry will not be able to cross the river to the south, and the foundation of the Chu State will not be shaken.

"Whoa!" Xiang Tuo responded with a bang and took the order.

Over there, Xiang Zhi has already brought the black horse over, although it is impossible for this meritorious old horse to charge with Xiang Zhuang, but it is more than enough for him to ride, Xiang Zhuang turned over and got on the horse, and turned back to greet Bi Shu and Baili Xian: "Learn the sword, Ziliang, we should go to Xianyang, hehe!" ”

Bi Shu and Bai Lixian looked at each other and smiled, and turned over on their horses one after another.

In less than a moment, more than 300,000 Chu troops set up more than a dozen columns, along the wide gallop road towards the north of the mighty march, while the army went north, another cavalry turned south, billowing smoke and dust, rushed to Ruoxian mighty, that is the 50,000 cavalry led by Meng Yan.
