Under the light of the moonlit night, the Huai water flows slowly.

The sad and desolate song came from all directions in the night.

Although Chu Wangqi did not grow up in Chu, he admired Chu culture since he was a child, and he was no stranger to the bursts of Chu songs.

Sadness.

Homesickness.

A faint melancholy appeared in his heart.

Especially when he was just reminiscing about the past in Guanzhong under the moonlight, he was hooked by this song, and his heart became more and more sad.

But soon, Chu Wangqi reacted.

"On the battlefield, the Qin army surrounded both sides, how could there be Chu people singing? Could it be that the Qin army withdrew? ”

Chu Wangqi was puzzled in his heart, but soon his face changed greatly, and he roared in a low voice: "No, this is the conspiracy of the Qin army!" ”

On the Huai River, there are Qin boats.

On both sides of the Chu camp were tens of thousands of troops of Feng Wuxue and Zhao Tuo, and they knew that these movements were made by the Qin army.

Chu Wang Qi looked around and saw that there were soldiers in all the tents of the Chu camp coming out.

They looked around, and their faces changed in the midst of the singing, and many of them were full of sadness and worry under the light of the campfire and the moonlight.

Chu Wangqi listened carefully and found that many of the Chu people who sang around him had Jiangdong accents, and they were also singing the homesick tunes of Jiangdong Wuyue.

Most of the soldiers under his command are from Jiangdong.

"Are the Qin people trying to attack the heart of our army? Such a trick must have been thought of by Zhao Tuo! ”

Chu Wang Qi immediately guessed the purpose of the Qin army, and was about to give an order to let these soldiers return to their accounts.

At this moment, the homesick singing around suddenly stopped, and then there were words of persuasion.

"Second and third sons, please listen to our robe brothers!"

"Now that the state of Chu has perished, even the king has surrendered to the Qin army, and ordered all the cities and towns to raise their flags to surrender to Qin! If you don't obey the order, it is a rebellion against the Chu State! ”

"Today, the Qin State has occupied most of the rivers and mountains in Chu, Ludi, Huaibei, Huainan, and even Jiangdong have been attacked by the Qin army. The king of Chu surrendered to Shouchun, the Chu general Xiang Yan killed himself in Shandao, and even Huaiyin was broken by the Qin army, otherwise the Zhao general An Neng's troops entered here and surrounded you! ”

"Only 20,000 or 30,000 people in the huge Chu Land are still raising the banner to resist Qin, looking around, but there is still help?"

There was an uproar in the Chu camp, so that Yin actually committed suicide in Shandao? Huaiyin was also captured?

There are also those Chu people from Jiangdong, whose faces are even more shocked and full of worry.

Has their hometown fallen into the hands of the Qin army?

Despair spread in the Chu camp.

"Rumors, this is the words of Qin Jun's demagoguery, return to the account quickly, don't listen to Qin Jun's demagogy!"

Chu Wang Qi was shocked, and hurriedly sent an order for military officials at all levels to drive all those soldiers back.

The words around him were still spreading.

"The second and third sons are like us, they are all commoners, they have worked hard at the age of one, and most of what they have obtained have been taken away by the nobles of Jing Chu. Jing Chu Yu You He Jiayan? ”

"Now, you are waiting for these sons of ordinary people, but they want to abandon their relatives and relatives, and use their own heads and lives to fight to the death for a pseudo-king Xiong Qi, how different is this from a fool!"

"The Qin State has occupied the general trend, and the puppet king Xiong Qi does not know the destiny of heaven, just like a mantis arm as a car, and will be destroyed sooner or later. If you follow him, you will definitely die here. When you died, did you ever think that your parents and children were still looking forward to your hometown, waiting for you to return! If you die, what will he do? ”

Crying sounded in the Chu camp.

Parents, wives and children, who doesn't miss them?

Chu Wangqi trembled all over when he heard it, knowing that the big thing was not good.

While he asked his cronies to drive the soldiers back to their tents, he had people shouting in the camp in an attempt to counter the demagogic voices outside the camp.

But it was useless, the Qin army had a certain method that could amplify the sound, plus they shouted together from all sides, no matter which direction the night wind was blowing, it could clearly blow into the Chu camp, far louder and clearer than the sound of the Chu pawns in the camp.

"Second and third sons, if the Qin army does not attack the Chu camp tonight, if you want to save your life, you should be able to run away at night. Wouldn't it be beautiful and happy to go back to their hometowns to accompany their parents and families? Why bother to fight for that pseudo-king Xiong Qi, fight with your life, and in the end you will be in a different place, and your relatives will cry bitterly! ”

"Tonight is the only chance to live, early tomorrow morning, the Qin army will attack the camp on a large scale, and when the camp is broken, if there are resistors, all of them will be killed, and there is no reason to live!"

"In addition, General Zhao Tuo has an order, and there is a person who captures and kills the pseudo-king Xiong Qi, and a reward of thousands of gold, and a high lord!"

"If you want to be rich and noble, you can cut off the head of the bear and offer it!"

……

"The King."

The soldiers screamed worriedly.

Chu Wang Qi trembled as frightened as if he was frightened, and looked at the personal guards who called him with a wary face.

"The king, we swear to defend the king to the death, and there is no second heart!"

The guards immediately knelt down and prostrated their heads to show their loyalty.

Chu Wang Qi was slightly relieved, but when he glanced at Siye and saw a pair of eyes that didn't know what to think, he felt cold all over his body.

"What a vicious trick, this Zhao Tuo has actually practiced the technique of attacking the heart to such a point, this is to disintegrate the army under my command overnight."

Chu Wang Qi gritted his teeth with hatred, although he asked people to spread rumors in the camp that what the Qin people said was demagogy, but it didn't have much effect.

Most of Chu pawn's thinking had already been guided by the Qin army.

As the Qin army said, if it weren't for Yin Xiangyan's death in battle and the fall of Huaiyin, how could Zhao Tuo's Qin army march into this place and surround them with Feng Wuxuan's Qin army.

What Qin Jun said must be true!

In this way, these Chu troops are really helpless, they are really alone, and the only way waiting for them is death, such a situation makes people feel desperate just thinking about it.

At this desperate time, the Qin army gave them another hope of survival and escape, and ran out of the camp at night and returned to their hometowns.

The promise that the Qin army would not hunt them down and allow these Chu soldiers to return to their hometowns to accompany their parents and relatives was full of endless attraction for these Chu people in despair.

I want to live!

What Jing Chu Sheji, serving the king of Chu, has nothing to do with me, a common man?

Except for those Chu people who are bent on survival.

There are still many people in the camp who are bold and want to be rich and noble, and they have already given birth to ambitions.

Tonight's Chu camp is unpredictable.

When Chu Wang Qi thought of all the consequences, he was terrified.

He could only shrink into his tent and lament under the heavy escort of his short soldiers.

He didn't even dare to appease the soldiers overnight, because he was afraid that those soldiers would suddenly rise up under the leadership of someone with a heart, cut off his head, and go to the Qin camp in exchange for wealth.

Just when Chu Wangqi was frightened and frightened in his heart, in the second half of the night, what he was most afraid of finally happened.

In the Chu camp, there were first shouts and angry scolding.

Immediately afterward, there were cries of fighting and wails of pain.

Someone started, like a stone stirring up a thousand waves, shouts after shouts sounded, and the Chu camp, which had 20,000 people, fell into chaos completely.

"King, there are two Sima in Nanying who lead the team to escape at night!"

"King, Dongying has a lead to grow out of the camp!"

"King, someone set fire to Xiying!"

"Great king, there are traitors who want to attack the king's tent."

"Please also ask the king to change his clothes quickly, and we will escort the king to run!"

In the panic of the short soldiers.

Chu Wang Qi sat powerlessly on the ground, his eyes confused.

He whispered: "The 20,000 army of Bugu is gone like this? ”

……

There was a hill a few miles south of the Qinchu battlefield.

On a cliff to the north, there are two figures, one large and one small, standing there, facing the cold wind, looking at the scene under the moonlight in the distance.

From their point of view, countless fires were coming out of the Chu camp in the middle, running in the direction of avoiding the Qin camp on both sides.

Those were all Chu soldiers who lit torches and fled for their lives.

"Father, has the Chu army been defeated?"

Han Xin raised his head and asked.

He is eight years old, with short hair hanging down, slightly pale skin, and some baby fat on his face.

A pair of eyes are shining brightly, especially spiritual.
