At noon on the second day after the camp was robbed, Suihou did as promised, and came to meet the teacher with a team that stretched for ten miles. The original two battalions of soldiers and horses were crippled and incomplete, so Zhao Bohu simply merged the two battalions and let the men and horses of Suihou build two other large battalions at the foot of the mountain. The three camps are centered on the Tonglu Mountain, arranged in the shape of "product", and the momentum is huge.

Now that the prince has arrived, then Ji Hu's identity as the crown prince no longer has to be hidden. Everyone only knows that Zhou Tianzi attaches great importance to the Jianghan countries, and sent the prince to reward the soldiers of the three armies, and all of them were encouraged and their morale was greatly shaken. Ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to take the stage to inspect the parade of soldiers and horses to shock the prestige. Summoning Bohu is undeserved, Ji Hu agreed with seven points of excitement and three points of fear.

On the day of the school inspection, the flags were unfurled under the copper green mountain, the swords and halberds were like a forest, and the shouts of the sergeants reached the sky, and the scene was very spectacular. Ji Hu is only seven years old after all, where has he ever seen such a battle? I don't feel my legs and stomach tremble. He trembled and stepped onto the stage, turning his head to Zhao Bohu with a pleading gaze. Zhao Bohu just smiled slightly: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, they are all your soldiers, you can say whatever you want." It's all right! ”

Ji Hu was encouraged, took a step forward, and shouted with all his strength: "My brave soldiers of the Great Zhou! I was ordered by my father to come to the army! ”

"King Xie will wait for me!" The shouts were overwhelming.

"For decades, Chu Man has bullied the Jianghan countries, not just one day. Now they dare to claim the title of king, annex the country of Hubei, and hang the head of the Hou Hou to the public, where did they put me Hehe Zongzhou? Our king endured and endured, but they kicked their noses in the face, and dared to march north with their troops, in a vain attempt to seize the Tonglu Mountain. Here," he said, pointing to the patina behind him.

"It is related to the national lineage of my Great Zhou, once it is taken by the Chu people, the country will not be a country, and the family will not be a home. Soldiers, can you agree? ”

"Can't—can't—" echoed in the mountains.

"Then follow the bloody battle of Prince Ben to the end, we will definitely drive out Chu Man, and return the land of Jianghan to peace!"

"No!"

After Ji Hu finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Bohu and Ji Duoyou on the side with apprehension, and the two of them showed appreciation and raised a thumbs up at him. The three of them looked at each other and smiled.

In the war of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the official decisive battle will be written and the date of the decisive battle will be agreed. The Zhou army and the Chu division have been facing each other in Tonglu Mountain for a whole summer, each winning and losing, and it is time for a decisive battle. If it drags on any longer, the logistical supplies of both sides will soon be unable to keep up.

It was a day in early autumn and August, and the two sides were in good positions at the foot of the Copper Green Mountain, ready to fight. The king of Chu, Xiong Qu's father, took the lead, and the chariot swaggered in the center of the front of the formation. The left and right sides are the eldest son Xiong Kang and the second son Xiong Hong, it seems that Xiong Kang's leg injury is almost better, and he is full of energy, no less than his younger brother Xiong Hong. Behind the father and son, followed by Ling Yin Mizhao, a middle-aged man who was quite thin, was also dressed in armor and neatly draped.

On the side of the Zhou army, there were nearly ten princes lined up in front of the formation, and it was the Suihou who was in the center, Shenhou and Fanzi were guarding him on the left and right, and the rest were lined up on the left and right.

Seeing that his soldiers were strong and strong, Sui Hou was very confident, and raised the halberd in his hand and pointed at Xiong Qu: "Bark!" How dare you claim to be the king? Kill your head today! ”

"Phew! You big-eared fat pig, is it great to have the support of King Zhou? If Zhou Tianzi knew that his betrothed daughter-in-law was robbed by you, how should he feel? Hahaha-----"

As soon as Xiong Qu said this, a burst of wild laughter broke out in Chu Ying. Shenhou's face was particularly ugly, his sister was married to King Zhou Yi, and he didn't want Ji Xie to be seized by his uncle King Zhou Xiao, so he changed his hexagram, retired from his family, and remarried Shen Jiang to Suihou as his wife, and everyone in the Jianghan and Han countries knew about it. But it is indeed a bit unbearable to mention it in front of the two armies.

Sui Hou was so angry that his face swelled like a pig's liver, and he was about to rush to Xiong Qu when he lifted the halberd. Suddenly, a young general flashed out from behind him: "Kill chickens with a knife? Please wait for a moment while the young general will take the lead. ”

This person is none other than Ji Tayou. On the side of Chu Ying, Xiong Kang also took the initiative to ask for battle: "Father, wait for the child to take off this kid's head and sacrifice the flag!" ”

As soon as the drums sounded, everyone opened their eyes to watch the duel between the two young players, which was an appetizer before the official fight.

Xiong Kang made a halberd, Ji Duoyou wore a sword, and the two of them fought back and forth for more than 20 rounds. Gradually, Xiong Kang fell behind, Xiong Hong wanted to urge him to come forward to help, but was stopped by Xiong Qu: "Don't win more with less, teach people to look down on my man surnamed Mi!" ”

"Yes!"

Here, Ji Duoyou deliberately sold a flaw, Xiong Kang thought that the opportunity had come, and he came to stab with a halberd. As soon as Ji Duoyou let go, Xiong Kang couldn't control the momentum and fell under the horse. Ji Duoyou swung his sword to slash, and suddenly a copper arrow shot like lightning, hitting his sword, the force sank, his wrist sank, and the sword almost fell off.

Xiong Qu abandoned the car and rode the horse, and arched his hand and said: "The general is really a young hero, and the dog is not an opponent." I don't know the name of the little general? ”

"In Shimohime Tayou, a patriot."

"The little general is strong in martial arts, and he yearns for it alone. Can you try it out with Lone? ”

"What do you want to compare?"

Xiong Qu smiled and said: "Compared with arrows, does the little general have the guts?" ”

Shenhou was anxious: "Ziliang, don't agree." Xiong Qu's archery skills are unparalleled, you are not an opponent. ”

"Hahaha------" Xiong Qu laughed loudly: "Shenhou don't worry, I'm just cherishing my talents, this kid is a young hero, I will definitely capture him alive, and I will never harm his life." ”

Ji Duoyou was enraged and yelled: "Take my 'Golden Servant Aunt'." ”

When the arrow was taken, Xiong Qu was obviously attracted by this big yellow bow, and said "Huh": "What's the name of this bow?" Where does it come from? ”

"This is my 'golden maid', I don't know where it came from. I don't know how the predecessors want to compare arrows? ”

"Simple. I'll let you shoot an arrow, you shoot first, I won't move. How is it? ”

"No, I can't. You were killed by an arrow, how can you tell the difference? Why don't we both shoot an arrow at each other at the same time, life and death are up to us, how about it? ”

"Boy arrogant, then as you wish." Xiong Qu sneered, took off the hard bow on his back, and began to prepare to aim.

Ji Duoyou didn't dare to slack off, carefully took off the "Golden Servant Aunt" on his back, took a deep breath, pulled the bow to the full, put the arrow on the string, squinted his right eye slightly, and pointed the arrow at Xiong Qu's throat.

Xiong Qu saw that Ji Duoyou's arrow had been issued, and immediately lowered his head, and he didn't see that he was preparing to aim, only to see an arrow flying out of his hand, as fast as a meteor, as fast as wind and thunder, and breaking through the air with a sharp whistling. Ji Duoyou didn't see the trend of the arrow clearly, only heard the sound of "dang", and he was hit hard in the chest, and the two arrows fell under the horse together.

It turned out that Xiong Qu's arrow was in the air against the arrow that Ji Duoyou had just sent, and because of its great strength, he actually pushed Ji Duoyou's arrow back, and the tail of the arrow was on his chest. If you weren't wearing armor, you wouldn't be able to shoot through this shot, and you would definitely vomit blood. Ji Duoyou couldn't stand up for a while, and swayed several times on the horse before he stabilized himself and didn't fall.

Ji Duoyou felt that all thoughts were discouraged for a moment, and he lost such a big ugliness in front of nearly 100,000 soldiers of the two armies, and he was ashamed for a while. But if you lose, you will lose, and the momentum can't be lost, he arched his hand to Xiong Quyi and said: "This time I lost the arrow, I lost under it, and I have nothing to say." My predecessors wanted my life and demanded it, but if I surrendered, it was impossible. ”

Xiong Qu only thought that this young man was very interesting, and laughed: "Young man, you need to know that 'there are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people'." You are also a rare talent, and at your age, my archery skills are far inferior! ”

Sui Hou had long been impatient, and when Ji Duoyou went out to fight just now, he looked at the lookout on the high place of Tonglu Mountain from time to time, where Zhao Bohu and the crown prince were closely watching the situation on the battlefield. He was in a hurry to show his face in front of the crown prince, and this time when he saw Ji Duoyou's defeat, he immediately shouted: "Enough! How can the two armies rely on the courage of the horseman? It's time to fight! ”

Xiong Qu broke off and shouted: "Okay! Archers ready! ”

If the pre-battle competition just now was just an appetizer before the war, then now it is an appetizer for the feast. The archers on both sides ran in front of the formation, drawing their bowstrings. With a command, one after another feathered arrows shot towards the opposing army with a heart-palpitating whistling sound. Immediately, the sound of pain after being hit by an arrow rang out.

After the last battle of the copper thorn car, Zhao Bohu changed the formula of casting arrows, especially the arrowheads, which were transformed from the original sharp blade shape to a four-petal spiral, which is more penetrating and faster. The cowhide armor of the Chu people couldn't withstand such arrows at all, and they fell down one after another. Although the archers of the Chu State were able to draw their bows fuller and shoot farther, relying on the advantage of their weapons, this round was considered a victory for the Zhou army.

"Retire——, slinger prepare!"

The archers turned and retreated into the gate, and hundreds of slingers, each carrying a large stone covered with rattan nets, ran in front of the formation, and began to prepare for the stone throwing.

With a wave of the banner, countless arms waved, and countless stones slammed into the enemy camp in a perfect arc in the air. Obviously, the Chu army's slingers were more powerful, threw farther, and the weight of the stones was greater, and the Chu army won this game.

The appetizers are finished, and it's time for the feast to begin. There was a drum sound from the top of the Tonglu Mountain, and all the soldiers of the Zhou army looked at the high platform. Zhao Bohu's blue-green robe was particularly dazzling against the background of the scarlet red flag behind him, and this flag was the signal of the array.

"Array!"

With a burst of drinking, there was a commotion in the Zhou army's camp. The princes retreated into the formation, and after the clamor of chariots and horses, a huge rectangular battle formation appeared on the battlefield. In addition to the southeast, northwest, and southeast, southwest, northeast, and northwest divisions are divided into eight formations, marked by red orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, white, and Xuan, and they move incessantly.

Xiong Qu pulled out the long sword from his waist and shouted: "This is the Zhou people playing tricks, don't be fooled!" Beat the drums! Look at how my Jing Chu boy breaks the formation and kills the enemy! ”
