Chu is not rich in horses, but is famous for its heroic warriors who fight with swords. But this is not absolute, such as the Jiangdong soldiers under Xiang Yu's command.

Xiang Yu has been famous in Jiangdong for his bravery since he was a child, and his bow and horse riding and archery are unparalleled, and his favorite is the art of cavalry. Influenced by it, there was also a wind of riding and archery among the sons of Jiangdong Haoqiang who followed him, and they were proud of their proficiency in bows and horses. When Xiang Liang's uncle and nephew killed the county guard Yin Tong in the Huiji incident, it was these 8,000 Jiangdong soldiers who relied on him.

In the Battle of Julu, Xiang Yu relied on this elite as the backbone to break Wang Li's powerful northern army and create a brilliant record. After claiming the title of king, Xiang Yu selected brave men from the Chu army to join it, and recruited the Loufu tribesmen who were good at riding and shooting in the north to join the army, and the scale of this Jiangdong army continued to expand, reaching the scale of 40,000 people at its peak, and has maintained this scale since then. Among them, there are actually not many Jiangdong people, but they are still known as Jiangdong's soldiers.

Xiang Yu placed this elite army alone, commanded by himself, ate and lived with the soldiers, and decided all matters with him. In peacetime, the food degree is several times that of the ordinary Chu army, and the supply of only 40,000 people has exhausted twenty percent of the tax grain in Chu. Over time, it naturally made other Chu army soldiers complain, and even Zhong Liwei and Yu Ziqi's cronies also complained a lot, but Xiang Yu was still the same.

Facts also prove that Xiang Yu's way of elite soldiers does have his reason, this Jiangdong army attacked like the wind, the offensive was rapid, the horses used were all purchased by Xiang Yu from outside the fortress, and they could still quickly enter the war after running for hundreds of miles. The battle of Pengcheng was their famous battle, and the Jiangdong soldiers were still able to maintain their strong physical strength to devote themselves to the attack after nearly 1,000 miles, and the first battle made Liu Bang's 560,000 coalition army rout, and the world was eyed by it.

Therefore, it is recognized by the world that Xiang Yu's Jiangdong soldiers are the first elite in the world, and even the Yulin elite cavalry in the Qin army cannot take its edge. And most importantly, they have an invincible commander of the past and the present - Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu.

After being silent for another half a year, the Jiangdong soldiers began to create their new glory again, and the opponent was the equally famous elite of the Qin State.

Although Yingbu was frightened in his heart, after all, he had experienced a hundred battles and decisively issued orders in the shortest possible time.

At the critical moment of life and death, the Qin people also showed their well-trained side, quickly forming a formation to resist. The hasty salvo of the crossbowmen did not bring a devastating blow to the Chu army, and the offensive of the Chu army did not even stop for a moment, and it was only a matter of an eye.

The Qin army was close to each other, impenetrable to each other, resisting to death, the halberd in their hands and the robes behind them were all they could rely on.

The war horses leaped high, and the Qin soldiers roared in unison and stabbed out the halberds in their hands, as if the roar could increase their courage and strength. The cavalry galloping at high speed slammed into the long halberd of Rulin, and none of the knights and horses were spared, but the cavalry behind did not hesitate at all, and smashed it one after another, using the huge impact of the cavalry to shake the Qin army formation.

The jumping war horse was soon pierced into a hornet's nest by the halberd in the hands of the Qin army, but the knight on the horse was still dancing bravely with his spear, striving to assassinate the Qin army. Immediately after the second and third waves, waves of Chu troops collided with each other.

This hastily deployed Qin army had a fatal flaw, that is, they did not have time to remove the large shield from the carriage while they were marching. The lack of protection from shields greatly reduced the prestige of the Qin army's originally strict formation, and they could only rely on the halberd array to resist the impact of the cavalry. This undoubtedly provided an opportunity for the Chu army, and the Qin infantry continued to retreat under the fierce attack of the Chu army, and the soldiers fell in rows, but the people behind followed one after another, constantly stepping forward to make up for it. The two armies of Qin and Chu were like two fierce beasts that had killed red eyes, fighting to the death, desperately trying to beat each other's momentum down.

Seeing that the forward was blocked, the follow-up cavalry stretched like two wings like mercury pouring on the ground, and the cavalry who couldn't squeeze forward took out their bows and arrows and shot long shots in the sky.

Yingbu saw that the situation was not good, and he knew that if he continued like this, he was afraid that he would not be able to withstand a few rounds of arrow rain and the Qin army would collapse, so he immediately made a big roar, and rushed out with eight thousand iron horsemen of his personal guards, wanting to disturb the subordinates of the Chu army from behind.

Seeing that the Qin army rushed out and led the troops was Yingbu, who had not met for a long time, Xiang Yu, who was sweeping the formation, had a faint look of excitement in his eyes and shouted loudly; "Good time."

Immediately, with a wave of the halberd, the fiery red banner with the huge word "Xiang" was waved in the wind, and more than 10,000 cavalry rushed out, like a red tide, rushing towards the Qin army.

The two streams of iron collided violently, and the soldiers on both sides fell off their horses with screams and screams, and were soon trampled into pulp in the galloping of thousands of horses.

The Chu army was like a sharp spear, fiercely inserted into the ranks of the Qin army, and Xiang Yu was undoubtedly the head of this sharp spear, and his halberd was directed, and the Qin army fell one after another.

The halberd was horizontal, throwing the body of a Qin general through the air, and blood suddenly spurted out and drenched Xiang Yu's face. Xiang Yu stretched out his hand and roared angrily, "Death to those who stand in my way!" ”

More than 10,000 roars rang out immediately; "Death to those who stand in my way!"

"Kill!"

The halberd in Xiang Yu's hand was as fast as lightning, and soon more than a hundred Qin troops died under him, and he was covered in blood to drive the black horse, and with a hideous smile on his face, he looked for Yingbu's figure in the chaotic army. Soon, Yingbu's muscular body caught his eye.

Yingbu is wielding a big knife to slash vertically and horizontally, he is a fierce general in the world, Rao is Jiangdong's disciples are strong in martial arts, but there is still a big gap between him and his thoughts, and no less than fifty people died under his knife.

After Xiang Yu found his figure, he saw that he was frantically slaughtering his subordinates, and he was immediately furious, and slammed the horse's belly.

"Yingbu dog thief, take your life."

Ying Bu heard Xiang Yu's roar, looked back, and was immediately frightened. If he said that the person he feared the most in this life, there was no one except Xiang Yu, Xiang Yu was jealous and hateful, and he would be revenged, not to mention the former general who had rebelled like him.

Yingbu secretly complained in his heart, but he couldn't avoid it, so he had to face it head-on.

With the swords and halberds intertwined, Yingbu only felt that his arm sank, and hurriedly unloaded his crotch mount, and the mount bent his legs and struggled before standing up again. In an instant, Xiang Yu's halberd stabbed out more than a dozen shots as fast as lightning, Yingbu deserved to be a fierce general in the world, and the halberd that was originally a fatal move was narrowly avoided one by one under his hard blocking.

The two horses passed by, each reining in the reins. Xiang Yu's eyes were like lightning, and crazy flames flashed in his squinted eyes, and he obviously found a hearty pleasure in Yingbu that he hadn't tasted for a long time.

Yingbu was already sweating profusely, and the dozen or so moves just now almost exhausted all his strength, and he really hovered back from the edge of life and death, and the domineering aura that radiated from Xiang Yu's body made him almost suffocated, and he almost couldn't help but want to drop his weapon and surrender several times.

In fact, even if Yingbu's martial arts are not as good as Xiang Yu, they are not far behind, and they will never be so bad, but he has already preconceived in his heart and believes that Xiang Yu is invincible, and he is already timid before fighting, how can he be undefeated.

Xiang Yu's eyes flashed, but he saw that Yingbu's hand holding the big knife trembled slightly, and his eyes suddenly became cold, and Zou Mei said; "Yingbu, are you scared?"

Yingbu clenched his teeth, closed his eyes and let out a long sigh of relief, then his face was slightly better, and he said; "Under the overlord's halberd, there is no reason not to be afraid."

"Yingbu has seen the overlord."

Xiang Yu snorted heavily, a fierce color flashed in his eyes, and said; "If you dare to betray me, you should know that you will end up today."

Yingbu sighed and smiled bitterly; "Don't you know, overlord, the reason why I surrendered to Han Xin that day was just to save my life. I asked myself if I was already worthy of the Chu State, worthy of the overlord you, in Julu, in Xianyang, when did I not charge ahead and work for you. ”

Xiang Yu was not moved at all, but instead showed murderous intentions, "Yingbu, I had already agreed when I went around your life that you would work hard for me, and I would return you to be rich and noble, and we would not owe each other." But you betrayed me, and the most intolerable thing for me Xiang Yu in this life is betrayal, so it's useless to say more, it's better for you and me to make a decision. ”

Yingbu sighed again, but closed his eyes and looked up to the sky, "I'm not your opponent, since you refuse to let me go, then kill or kill you." ”

Xiang Yu didn't laugh angrily, looked up to the sky and laughed; "Yingbu, you are also a hero, but you said such a shameful thing, I am still a hero in vain, but you are a woman, you disappoint me too much."

Yingbu was irritated and said angrily; "Xiang Yu, if you want to kill, you will kill, why insult me, what is wrong with me being appointed if I am not as skilled as others."

"Of course it's wrong." Xiang Yu raised his head proudly and said in a solemn tone; "If you draw your sword against me, I still have a trace of admiration for you, and if you abandon your weapon and surrender, I will only be ashamed to know you."

After all, Yingbu is a reckless hero, who was originally arrogant and uninhibited, and was so agitated by Xiang Yu that he suddenly raised his knife in his chest and said angrily; "Okay, you're going to fight, and your head is not going to get a big scar. I'm a hero all my life, and it's worth dying in your hands. Xiang Yu, come on. ”

Xiang Yu shouted three times in a row, the prancing horse lifted the halberd, and the halberd in his hand stabbed towards Yingbu, Yingbu was separated by concentration, and slashed it with his backhand. At this time, Yingbu had already left life and death behind, and there was no fear in his heart, but a knife was as fast as a knife, and Xiang Yu couldn't help him for a while.

After dozens of moves, Xiang Yu became more and more courageous, the halberd was as fast and fierce as a poisonous snake spitting out a letter, the move was not far from the point, the excitement in his eyes became stronger and stronger, and the offensive in his hand became more and more fierce, and the violent offensive pressed Yingbu almost breathlessly,

Xiang Yu saw an opportunity, stabbed Yingbu's ribs with a halberd, and yelled in his mouth; "Come on."

At this time, Yingbu was swinging his knife to separate the halberd, and he had no time to return the knife, so he could only watch the halberd penetrate the armor and stab straight into the warm body.

Xiang Yu put away his halberd, the two horses staggered, Yingbu staggered on the horse as if he was drunk, suddenly fell off the horse, and struggled on the ground without moving.

Xiang Yu used his halberd to pick Yingbu in the air, and roared like thunder; "Yingbu is dead, and you won't be captured before you can tie your hands."

Yingbu's death immediately plunged the already unfavorable Qin army into chaos, and the Chu army took advantage of the situation to attack the phalanx and launched a fierce attack on the Qin army from all directions.

The Qin army was leaderless, and the phalanx had already been torn apart, so they could only fight against the Chu army by fighting for themselves. Although the army was defeated like a mountain, few abandoned their weapons and surrendered, and most of them fought to the end and died under the hooves of the Chu army.

The sporadic fighting lasted until late at night before finally ending, and the 40,000 Qin troops were annihilated, and only more than 100 people surrendered, and the main general Yingbu also died on the battlefield. When the wailing came, the whole country of Qin was shocked.
