Chapter 340: Lu Pheasant Dies
The vast Shennongjia.
Two thousand years later, it is still intimidating and does not dare to go deep without permission, and in the pre-Qin period, it was a forbidden area for humans and a paradise for wild beasts.
The temporary recuperation of the Eighteen Dragon Pond did not make Lu Pheasant change his destination, on the contrary, without Liu Ying's ties, this woman with a heart like steel led the team into the journey of death without hesitation.
Zhang Pingzuihou, who chased all the way here, saw the wolves all over the ground, as well as the skeletons of the horses that had been killed, and these already thin and only shelf-free livestock were exhausted of all their strength, and even their bodies could not escape the tragic fate of a thousand cuts. At the bottom of one of the pools, the Qin army also found the bodies of more than a dozen soldiers who had been massacred.
The wounded were apparently abandoned. In order to prevent the wounded and the soldiers from informing, Lu Pheasant, Guo Ting and others tricked them to the edge of the deep pool before leaving, and Zuihou indulged in the bottom of the pool.
Since then, Lu Pheasant's group has not appeared elsewhere, what is their final fate? It wasn't until more than 700 years later that another group of fugitives broke into the jungle and found hundreds of human corpses gnawed by wild beasts and only messy skeletons at the bottom of a cliff.
The corpses died in a horrific state, and the only one who could be identified was the gender.
However, judging from the swords stuck in the corpses, they also went through a fight before they died, and some of the corpses even hugged each other in one place.
According to this analysis, these corpses fought with each other for food or other reasons, but the final result was that they all died together.
For her own selfishness, Lu Pheasant coerced Lu Shizhi, Guo Ting, and Zhang Ping to be buried in the jungle together, and all her dreams stopped at this moment.
At this point, all the remnants of the former Han State finally disappeared under the blows of the Qin army.

While the riots in Hanzhong subsided, the battle of Yingdu was entering a white-hot stage.
The Eastern Chu naval division led by Zhou Cheng surrounded Yingdu under the leadership of the robber Kou Xi Juan and others, and the Eastern Chu generals relied on the advantage of excellent water quality. Constantly attacking from the Water Gate.
The moats surrounding the city, once dug to block enemy attacks, were now used by Eastern Chu soldiers and bandits to get close to the city walls and the city gates.
The water network zone is guarded.
The opponent is a proficient water-based water thief, and Feng Xuan's difficulty in defending the city can be imagined.
The Eastern Chu army, which lacked food supplies from afar, frantically invested nearly two-thirds of its troops to storm the city walls, and the two sides lost nearly 1,000 lives each just for the water gate.
In order to block the onslaught of the enemy, Feng Xuan led his guards into battle, and his repeated charges moved the soldiers and civilians in the city. They also went to the city to help in the war, in fact, the thieves' ferocious Yingdu people also understood that they had been holding a wait-and-see and indifferent posture, just because of the inherent vigilance of the Qin people.
February 24.
After looking forward to the long-awaited Pakistani army finally arrived at the battlefield of Yingdu, this Pakistani army came from the Jiangzhou area, and experienced many difficulties and dangers along the way, and their appearance made the balance of victory in the battle of Yingdu begin to tilt towards the side of the Qin army.
Twenty-fiveth. Daybreak.
The Pakistani army had a fierce battle with Yunmengze Jiangkou Xi Juan on the outskirts of Yingdu, Luo Xian's performance in this battle was impressive, and when he met Xi Juan, an enemy general who was also not very good, Luo Xian burst out of his full potential. Xi Juan was killed by an arrow, and the rest of the army also scattered.
Twenty-seventh, dusk.
Li Yuan's personal guards descended the Han River on the ships of the Nanjun Qin Army's naval division, and joined the Qin general Chen Xuan, who had been reinforced from Sanchuan County, in the area of Deng County. The two armies advanced by land and water, and the great momentum of the Qin army shocked the Eastern Chu army, which was in a dilemma under the city of Yingdu.
The weekly cost is not strong.
This time, it was found out that Li Yuanqin led the army to kill it. The only bit of courage finally dissipated, in the face of a Feng Xuan, he was already helpless, and in the face of Li Yuan, who was not even afraid of the overlord Xiang Yu, Zhou Cheng did not even have the courage to fight, and hurriedly ordered the soldiers to board the ship and retreat.
It's just that it's too late for them to retreat now.
The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind.
Yunmeng Daze's Jiang Bandit is not just Xi Juan's group, the largest and most powerful Deng Tuo Department has always existed with a wait-and-see attitude in the previous battle.
Now, after seeing the Qin army regain the upper hand, Deng Tuo exerted his strength.
Yun Mengzezhong.
The fleet of the Eastern Chu army returned east with exhausted soldiers who had lost their fighting spirit, and when their fleet passed through Panlong City, they were attacked by Deng Tuo's troops.
Zhou Cheng, who was completely on guard, never expected that he would be ambushed in Daze, you must know that in the previous contact, although Deng Tuo did not express his support for Dongchu, he did not show much hostility.
The southeast wind blows strongly in early spring.
Deng Tuojun, who seized the upper wind and rushed the fast boat, lit a torch at the bow of the ship, and under the cover of the thick smoke, the Deng army robbers rushed into the slow fleet of the Eastern Chu army.
Fire fuels the wind.
The sails of the ships that were burned by the fire were burned to ashes in the flames, and without the support of the wind, the ships of the Eastern Chu army full of soldiers began to spin in place like a heavy old ox.
Seeing this, Zhou Cheng was in a hurry, and hurriedly ordered several burning warships to be broken. The key to water warfare lies in speed. Once the fleet of the Eastern Chu Army stagnates, the Qin Army's naval divisions that are chasing far behind will pounce like wolves, and the officers and men of the Eastern Chu Army, who are inferior in speed, will have no skills and will not be able to deal with the fast-moving opponents.
The Eastern Chu army broke its tail to survive.
More than 20 warships, plus nearly 1,500 soldiers on board, watched their companions fly away, these abandoned Jiangdong children in desperation, kept scolding Zhou Cheng's ancestors and female ancestors in the family, and the familiar voice faintly reached Zhou Cheng's ears, making the face of the defeated commander of the Eastern Chu Army become more and more ugly.
Upon hearing the news of the defeat of the Eastern Chu army, Mei Juan's army, which was still on the road north of Changsha Kingdom, immediately turned around and retreated towards the Lingnan area.
The siege of Namgun was lifted.
After this joint battle, the Qin army generals guarding Yingdu and the people of Chu finally broke the barrier between each other, and from the smiling faces, it can be seen that the people of these southern counties began to identify with the Qin army.
When Li Yuan led the team into Yingdu, the crowd of people who welcomed them broke out into bursts of cheers, and at this moment, Li Yuan and other Qin people from Guanzhong were not enemies, but friends who really helped them defend their homeland. (To be continued......)
