But he said that the prince had returned, Liu Bang's father and son had a reunion and a couple's reunion, and the white hair and red face were drunk with each other, which was really gratifying. However, in Empress Lu's heart, she still hated to judge her and was not allowed to be here.

The king of Han was successful in the peace negotiation, and King Xiang had returned, and he also wanted to quit the army and return to Guanzhong. Zhang Liang and Chen Ping came in together and admonished: "The ministers asked the king to negotiate peace, just for the sake of the prince and Empress Lu. Now they have returned, and they are at war with him. And now I have obtained two-thirds of the land in the world, and the countries of Yan and Qi have come to submit, and the power is strong. Xiang Wang's soldiers are short and the food is exhausted, this is the time when the sky is dead in the Chu State! If you don't take advantage of this time to enter the army to exterminate it and let it go back, it is tantamount to raising tigers and causing trouble! The king of Han said: "The covenant of the chasm has an oath, and if it is changed now, it is not enough to win the trust of the world." The two of them said in unison: "If you detain a small letter and lose your righteousness, the wise will not do it." In the past, if Tang Wu did not punish him, the world would never be able to get it. If the king of Han detains himself with an oath, and Hongji is the king of Xiang's income, the king suffers for half his life, and the ministers work for nothing, may the king unify the territory as the lord of the four seas, so that the princes of the world will face the king in the north, and the ministers will also be the ministers of the prosperous world, isn't it beautiful! The two of them knew that they would seek profit and not pay attention to faith, and the king of Han changed his plan again, so they sent Han Xin, the king of Qi, and Peng Yue, the king of Wei, to raise troops to respond. He also ordered Lu Jia to repair the book to the overlord, and the book said:

Liu Bang, the king of the Han Dynasty, wrote to the overlord under his command: The former prince and the queen of Lu were in Chu, and they were not ordered to return to the country for a long time. I am afraid that the rat wound weapon is very dilemma, and I have to make peace with you, and now the prince and the queen have returned to the country, so they will meet the army with the king, if the king is not afraid, quickly raise troops to come to the decisive battle, do not violate!

The overlord was furious when he read the book, so he tore the book and scolded him: "Liu Bang repeated villains, lured the prince and Empress Lu to return to the country, but now he has broken the alliance. I think I am invincible after more than 300 battles. Er Ke quickly returned to tell Liu Bang that I would lead the troops to fight a decisive battle with him, and swear not to kill this horseman! ”

A few days later, there was a report from the small school of the outpost, the overlord commanded 300,000 troops, and drove from Xuzhou, all the way to the county officials to escape, and the people were uneasy. The overlord's men and horses will go to Guling and set up camp thirty miles away. The king of Han originally asked Han Xin and Peng Yue to lead the troops to the meeting, but the time limit had passed, and the soldiers and horses of the two roads still did not arrive, so they had to fight alone.

On the same day, the two sides lined up in formation, and King Xiang came out and scolded King Han: "Regardless of faith and righteousness, repeat villains!" While scolding, a horse rushed into the Han army.

General Han hurriedly stopped him, how could he not help but get a wave of anger from King Xiang. No one in the Han army was his opponent, either stabbed to death by him or stabbed by him, and the king of Han saw that he was overwhelmed, and immediately slapped his horse and ran back. As soon as the commander moved, the whole army dispersed, and King Xiang was happy to kill for a while, drove the Han soldiers back to the camp, and then collected the troops and left.

The king of Han returned to the camp in embarrassment, thousands of soldiers died, and dozens of generals died, and he couldn't help but sit in the tent depressed. Coincidentally, Zhang Liang came in, so the advisor said: "Han Xin, Yingbu, and Peng Yue have been summoned repeatedly, so what?" Zhang Liang said: "Although Han Xin was crowned king, he did not divide the land; Peng Yue has made great achievements repeatedly, and there is no reward for knighthood; Yingbu has not given preferential gifts since he turned his back on Chu and surrendered to the Han Dynasty. The three of them forgot their righteousness and greedily and were self-conscious, and if the king split the soil and rewarded him, so that each had a county under his jurisdiction, they all vied with each other to fight hard. As soon as the king's command comes, he will come to him, and there will be no one who will not obey it! King Han said: "Mr. has insight into the hearts of the three people. I will now crown Han Xin as the king of Sanqi, and the surrounding counties are all in charge, and all the taxable money and grain will be used by the king of Qi. Yingbu was crowned the king of Huainan, and all the things produced by Huainan were all the expenses provided by Yingbu. Peng Yue was named the king of Liang, and all the Liang land was collected and disbursed by Peng Yue. Han Xin, Peng Yue, and Yingbu were overjoyed when they heard this! Immediately agreed to bring troops in.

Although King Xiang defeated the Han soldiers, he slowly retreated all the way due to lack of food. The king of Han led his troops to chase after him, and it happened that Han Xin and Peng Yue led the troops to arrive, and they were united with the king of Han. After Yingbu pacified Jiujiang, he also brought troops to respond.

Han Xin immediately commanded the army to go first, and the Han king's men and horses advanced one after another, thirty miles away from the Chu camp and went down to the village. After a while, someone reported to the king of Han, saying that Han Xin led dozens of horsemen to the southeast tonight, and he didn't know where to go. King Han was shocked: "Chu and Han are fighting, and the lord will flee at night, so why don't you want me to make peace with the overlord?" King Han was undecided, but he could only sit with the lamp in his hand. After five drums, the moon has sunk in the west, and the colonel hurriedly returned: "The marshal has returned to the camp!" King Han hesitated for a long time, and then sent Xiao He to ask him. Xiao He immediately brought several people to the Chinese army to meet the letter. Han Xin said: "Is the prime minister suspicious of his late-night visit? Xiao He said: "The marshal is far away tonight and I don't know where to go?" Han Xin said: "King Xiang is brave, and Pingchuan is afraid that it will be difficult to win against the enemy, so he is looking for a place to punish King Xiang." Xiao He was very happy when he heard it, and when he saw Han Wangbei and said the previous situation, Han Wang was overjoyed.

The next day, Han Xin summoned the generals to wait for the military orders: Fan Hao and Guan Ying were the first, Zhou Bo and Zhou Chang were the second, Jin She and Lu Juan were the third, Lu Matong and Yang Xi were the fourth, Zhang Er and Zhang Cang were the fifth, Lou Fu was the sixth, Xiahou Ying and Wang Ling were the seventh, Cao Shen and Chai Wu were the eighth, Yingbu was the ninth, and Han Wang and the generals were the tenth. Each leader of 5,000 elite soldiers, according to the local station, the cannon sounded as a signal, rushed out to attack, and when King Xiang entered Guangwu, there was no way out, and Han Xin's personnel and horses were transferred.

Then Han Xin posted a list to insult Xiang Wang, and the list wrote:

All hearts are betrayed,

Providence belongs to Yan Liu,

Sword light gives rise to flames,

To behead the overlord.

As soon as the overlord saw Bangwen, he immediately led the generals to flock over, and Han Xin came out to meet him. The overlord stood out in front of the army and scolded: "Han Xin's crotch! You were originally a Chu minister, and the day before yesterday, I summoned Wu Shi to return to Chu, why did you stubbornly disobey? Gui Chu you may still be the king, Gui Han you die without a burial place! How is my battle with you today? It's better to die at my hands than at the hands of Liu Bang! Han Xin said: "Your Majesty, the contemporary emperor, how can you personally fight against me with a spear and want to bring humiliation on yourself?" The overlord took Han Xin straight with his gun, and Han Xin fled to the southeast with a false shot. The overlord urged the three armies to shout: "I must catch this crotch man today, and I have infinite hatred for snow!" Zhong Liwu, Xiang Bo, Xiang Zhuang, Zhou Lan, Yu Ziqi, Huan Chu, Ding Gong, Yongya, Zhou Yin and others followed the overlord to chase Han Xin. Han Xin gradually introduced the overlord into Guangwu Mountain, Zhong Li said urgently: "Guangwu Mountain has only this way out, if Han Xin's troops block the mountain pass, our soldiers will definitely be trapped!" Your Majesty can't try your best to catch up, so why don't you camp here for the time being, wait for the rear army to arrive, and watch the situation? The overlord said: "There is no way out, and the troops are stationed here." We'll talk about it when the rear army arrives. Suddenly, I saw the rear army coming to report: "The rear soldiers and horses were cut off in half by the Han general Fan Hao and the baby, and they were not allowed to advance." Zhong Li said: "There is a mountain in front of you, and there are Han soldiers in the back, Your Majesty is not allowed to station troops here." The overlord said: "Hold it at the mountain pass, there must be heavy troops around, and you can't kill it for a while, if you still chase Han Xin, kill this crotch man." ”

The two of them had not yet decided, and the artillery on all sides was raised, and I don't know how many Han soldiers rolled to the ground. The Chu soldiers were in chaos without a fight. The overlord was furious, waved his men and horses to rush out, and was blocked by Yingbu, the king of Jiujiang. The overlord scolded: "Treasonous thief, what face does you see me!" Bu said: "It is your work to kill the righteous emperor, but you have made the princes of the world scold me, and I am trying to punish this rebellion today to clarify my heart!" "Raise the axe and take the overlord, and the overlord will raise the gun and return it. Overlord and Yingbu fought for fifty rounds. At this time, Lou Fu rushed over, Ji Bu and Heng Chu hurriedly raised their weapons and went out, and the overlord saw that the two generals were out to fight the enemy, so he collected his guns and turned his horse back to Shanfu.

In the middle of the fight, Cao Shen and Chai Wu arrived again, and the Han soldiers on all sides surrounded them again, and the overlord hurriedly turned around his horse, and saw Han Xin camping on the top of the mountain, and the two sides sang songs in unison to drink. The overlord scolded angrily: "Crotch husband An dares to bully me like this!" "Urgently order the generals on the left and right to urge the men and horses to go up the mountain separately, and arrest the crotch man Han Xin. The generals were about to go up the mountain, but suddenly they saw the wooden cannon stones on the mountain to knock the generals down, and the soldiers could not go up. The overlord gritted his teeth and wanted to go up the mountain in person, but Ji Bu admonished: "No! Han Xin set up this treacherous plan, which was to make His Majesty angry and go up the mountain in person, and when it was dark, he had to guard against artillery. If you don't spend a night for a while, Hou will hit and kill again tomorrow. ”

Within a day, King Xiang's soldiers arrived, and the Han soldiers gathered in all directions, and King Xiang was not afraid at all. Han messenger general Kong Xi led the troops on the left wing, and the general Chen He led the troops on the right wing, and led the generals to the Chinese army. He also made the generals Zhou Bo and Chai Wu lead the troops to protect the king of Han for the rear team.

Han Xin led the Chinese army into battle, and the two formations were in a circle. Everyone in Chu fought bravely, and they all competed for the lead. But when he saw the smoke and dust rising to the sky, the shouts shook the earth. This vicious battle was fought for more than two hours without a winner! King Xiang was able to kill, and with a loud shout, the horses fell into battle, and the Chu army then poured in. The Han soldiers gradually could not resist the enemy, Han Xin ordered the army to retreat, and King Xiang led the crowd to come. But after listening to the second artillery fire, there were two ambushes to intercept Xiang Wang. King Xiang was able to kill, but there was still no retreat, and the Han army ambushed one after another. King Xiang killed again and again, and when he reached the seventh and eighth times, the troops were scattered and the generals were killed and wounded, and King Xiang also felt tired, so he had to collect his troops and retreat to the camp, and the counting of men and horses had been broken in half.

Han Xin returned victoriously, assigned soldiers to camp on all sides, and surrounded the Chu army several times. In order to break the morale of the army, Han Xin sent people to make kites out of cowhide, put bamboo flutes on them and put them in the night sky, the wind blew the flutes to make a desolate sound, and Zhang Liang ordered the Chu people with the army to sing Chu songs. When Chu Jun heard the hometown sound and remembered his hometown, his fighting spirit was weakened. The song says:

In late autumn in September, the four fields are frosty;

The sky is high and the water is dry, and the geese are sad.

The most bitter side, wandering day and night;

Wear a firm and stubborn edge, and stand in the sand!

After ten years away from home, his parents parted;

His wife He Kanxi, lives alone in a lonely room.

Although there is a field, who should keep it?

The wine next door is ripe, who should taste it?

The white hair leans against the door, looking through the autumn water;

The child's remembrance is longing, and tears break the liver and intestines.

Huma hisses and loves the soil;

Life is a long-term guest, would you rather forget your hometown?

Once the army is engaged, it will die by the sword;

The flesh and bones are muddy, and the grass is weak.

The soul is long, and I don't know what to rely on;

There are few ambitions, and there are absurdities in paying.

When this eternal night falls, remembrance returns to the province;

Disperse early to avoid death.

My song is not born, and heaven sends you to tell you;

You know your fate, don't say it's slim!

The king of Han is virtuous, and he will not kill the army;

Mourn and return to love, let you soar.

Don't keep the empty camp, the grain road is gone;

Finger to catch the feathers, the jade is injured.

King Xiang thought that the soldiers were widowed and the food would be exhausted, and he was helpless. I can't sleep in the tossing and turning bed. So he went out of the tent alone and went to the camp for a walk. Suddenly, I heard the sound of singing from afar and responded everywhere, listened carefully to the clear words, and secretly surprised: "This is Chu Ge, is it possible that Chu land is occupied by the Han people?" How is this good!? King Xiang returned to the tent depressed, ordered to take out the wine and food left and right, and called Yu Ji to drink with him to relieve his boredom.
