Chapter 40: Ge Ying Lichu

Since Chen Sheng captured Chen County, under Ge Ying's self-recommendation, he ordered him to send troops to Jiujiang to open up the road to the south and prepare for him to recover Chu in the future.

At this time, Ge Ying led five thousand soldiers and horses all the way south, collected ships from Xincai, and prepared to cross the river, watching the mighty army begin to assemble in the river port, Ge Ying sighed lightly, he didn't know how many troops and horses Qin would send to suppress Chen Sheng, but he turned to Jiujiang in time, which was definitely the right choice.

Soon, the ferries began to set sail, this is the first batch of troops to cross the river set off, Ge Ying watched the boats gradually move away, but on the side, a henchman came over, beside him and whispered: "General, I don't know whether to say something or not." ”

Ge Ying was slightly displeased when he saw him spitting and spitting, and reprimanded: "If you have something to say, say it quickly!" ”

"I think that we should not support Chen Sheng and be a nameless Chu army, but should visit the Chu people and make him the king of Chu.

After Ge Ying heard this, he couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly, staring into the distance, he was also thinking about the pros and cons of this matter, if he didn't handle it well, would he be burned? But what the henchman said is not unreasonable, since ancient times, he has been famous since ancient times, so he can not be defeated in a hundred battles, and Ge Ying began to be moved.

I don't know how long it took, but a man came with his horse and said, "General, you can cross the river." ”

Ge Ying was interrupted to ponder, he looked into the distance, the ferry boat did not know when, had returned, Ge Ying nodded, and headed towards the river port, at this time, he remembered the words of his henchman just now, looked at his henchman, and ordered: "Don't make a noise about this matter, you can secretly investigate." ”

The henchman nodded, clasping his hands into fists: "Don't worry, general, I will handle this matter well and never let the general down." ”

The henchman left, and Ge Ying watched his back gradually disappear, so he turned his horse's head and headed towards the river port.

。。。。。。

Crossing the Huai River, Ge Ying led the army and marched eastward, they avoided the big city with more Tun troops, and marched along the winding path to Zhongli, preparing to occupy a foothold there, and then Xu Tujiujiang, little by little, to eat away the power of the Qin State here.

Just when the army was dying down and advancing rapidly, the Qin army was in the north of Yinling County, setting up a position, preparing to meet Ge Ying's army.

Ge Ying boasted of being clever, but when he passed through Quyang, he showed his horse's feet, Shouchun 3,000 soldiers, rushed for a day and a night, and then rushed to the front of Ge Ying's army, ready to attack Ge Ying's army, the war drums were beating the sky, the rumbling sound was deafening, five hundred cavalry were in front, two thousand infantry were in the back, and on both sides, it was the most powerful crossbow array of the Qin army.

And Ge Ying was also ready at this time, his army was all poorly armed peasant army, when he left Chen County, although some weapons were replenished, there were still many people with simple bamboo spears and rakes, and their combat effectiveness was not strong.

It is precisely because of this that Ge Ying considered avoiding the main force of the Qin army, after all, his strength was not mature, but God did not fulfill people's wishes, and Ge Ying finally encountered the Qin army in the Yinling area.

At this time, the war drums also beat in the Chu army, and the red Chu flag was waving in the wind, at this time, Ge Ying came out with a spear, and on the opposite side, a Qin army general held a double hammer and came to the front of the formation, he was Zhang Tong, the chief general of the Qin army.

Zhang Tong looked Ge Ying up and down for a while, and when he saw that he was dressed shabby, he couldn't help but sneer, his contempt paused, and he turned around and smiled at the soldiers: "Look at me within the three, kill this thief!" ”

"Mighty! Mighty! The Qin army shouted loudly in the formation, morale was high, Zhang Tong rode out of the horse, faster and faster, and went straight to Ge Ying to kill, and Ge Ying on the opposite side was also vigilant at this time, he looked at Zhang Tong who was galloping, the spear in his hand was clenched, and after a short period of self-motivation, Ge Ying shouted, straightened his spear, and killed Zhang Tong.

The two sides met together in just an instant, Ge Ying's spear swung and flew over, stabbing towards Zhang Tong's door, Zhang Tong's double hammer swung strongly, separated the spear, and smashed straight to Ge Ying's face, Ge Ying saw Zhang Tong's fierce attack, and had to lie on his back on horseback, avoiding Zhang Tong's attack.

The two sides quickly separated by the speed of the horse, but soon, the two of them turned their horses' heads and killed each other again, Ge Ying dangled a spear this time, Zhang Tong set up a double hammer to block, but soon, Ge Ying spearhead Heng finger, with a spear shaft to knock Zhang Tong off the horse, a muffled // hum, Zhang Tong fell out of more than ten steps before stopping.

This head, Ge Ying has already reined in the horse and turned around, raised his spear and stabbed at Zhang Tong, Zhang Tong's double hammer had been taken off the horse when he fell off the horse, at this time he had two empty hands, and had to fight to dodge, taking the opportunity to grab // Ge Ying's spear, and with both hands, he dragged Ge Ying off the horse.

The huge impact force made Zhang Tong have to let go of the spear, Ge Ying rolled a few times before stopping, barely getting up, only to feel that his chest was stuffy, a mouthful of blood spurted out, Ge Ying felt a lot better.

But fortunately, the spear was next to Ge Ying, Ge Ying picked up the spear, looked at Zhang Tong coldly, the two sides were deadlocked, Zhang Tong wanted to pick up the war hammer, but he couldn't find a chance, about the time of the stalemate of a stick of incense, Ge Ying shouted, brandished the spear to kill, Zhang Tong took the opportunity to roll on the spot, rolled to the side of the war hammer, he was happy in his heart, picked up a war hammer, turned back suddenly, and wanted to slash Ge Ying, but Ge Ying's spearhead had already pierced Zhang Tong's throat first.

"Whoosh" a few times, Zhang Tong wanted to speak, but he couldn't say a word, the blood flowed down the spear shaft // Soon, Zhang Tong knelt down, tilted his head, and died under Ge Ying's spear, Ge Ying pulled out the spear from Zhang Tong's throat, waved forward, and shouted: "Kill it!" ”

Ge Yingjun's morale was greatly boosted, and they swarmed out and killed the Qin army, but the Qin army folded the main general, the dragons were leaderless, and the swarm of bees broke up and fled towards Yinling.

Along the way, the banners and weapons of the Qin army fell all over the ground, but Ge Ying stopped the soldiers from picking up items, and chased after the Qin army, and finally, at a mountain bag, Ge Ying's army surrounded more than 2,000 Qin troops, and the soldiers all excitedly shouted: "Those who surrender live, and those who resist are killed!" ”

The Qin army was cornered, so they had to throw down their weapons and surrender, Ge Ying won the first battle, and his heart was happy, although he still escaped nearly a thousand Qin soldiers, but this battle was enough to make Ge Ying famous in Jiujiang County.

More than 100 Chu troops gathered their weapons along the way, and loaded the items thrown by the Qin army into the carriage, while Ge Ying's main force escorted the Qin army to the Yin Tomb, when the sun fell, the Ge Ying army came to the city of Yin Ling, a thousand pioneers have prepared the ladder, lined up and waited, as long as Ge Ying gave an order, the Chu army will not hesitate to launch a fierce attack on the Yin Tomb.

Finally, the sound of war drums stopped abruptly, Ge Ying waved his spear, pointed forward, a low horn sounded, a thousand vanguard troops rushed forward without hesitation, and went straight to Yinling City......

The flames of war burned every inch of the Yinling Tomb, the soldiers brandished Changge and rakes, rushed into the Yinling City, it was late at night, Ge Ying was escorted by more than 100 people, and went to the county office.

In the lobby, the county order and the county have been killed, some soldiers are cleaning up the battlefield, Ge Ying feels exhausted, he has exhausted his physical strength in today's battle with the Qin general, at this time sitting on the soft seat, Ge Ying feels sleepy, but this is not the time to rest, there are still many things to deal with, Ge Ying is strong, at this time, a relative brought a cup of tea, Ge Ying picked up the teacup, blew lightly, took a sip, and felt much better.

Soon, outside the noisy hall, a soldier rushed in and said: "General, the latest information, Jiangdong Huiji, Xiang Liang and others after Xiang Yan killed the county guard, supported the army and stood on their own. ”

Ge Ying nodded, the soldier retreated, at this time, Ge Ying put down the teacup, got up and paced in the house, the descendants of the Xiang family are revolting in Huiji, if he can ally with the Xiang family, together to support the descendants of the Chu State, and establish the foundation of the Chu State, at that time, he will be the founder of the country, and the future is limitless.

Thinking of this, Ge Ying couldn't help but smile secretly, tidy up the affairs of the Yin Tomb, he might as well continue to move south, and march to Liyang, thinking so, Ge Ying was sleepy again, this time, he really couldn't stand it, he had to rest first, and he was thinking about the next step, thinking of this, Ge Ying strode towards the back hall.

。。。。。。

Ten days later, Ge Ying's army continued to march south, by this time, his army had reached nearly 10,000 people, and his equipment had also been significantly improved, and the morale was high, and the number of chariots had increased from more than ten to more than thirty.

The mighty Chu army was walking on the galloping road, at this time, several fast horses rushed in the direction of Ge Ying, and soon, Ge Ying's henchmen came to Ge Ying on horseback, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, I lived up to the general's expectations, I brought people here." ”

Behind the henchman's fingers, a middle-aged man in a gray robe rode a horse, and when he approached, the middle-aged man smiled and said, "In Xiaqi Xiangjiang, I have seen General Ge Ying." ”

'Mi' is the surname of Chu State, and it can also be surnamed 'Xiong', at this time he reported his name, Ge Ying knew a little in his heart, as long as he was a descendant of Chu State, he could be justified and ascended the throne as king, and they would easily get the support of the Chu people.

At this time, Ge Ying had already looked up and down at Xiangjiang, although he was dressed plainly, but his temperament was extraordinary, Ge Ying could see that he was the person he wanted to get, thinking like this, Ge Ying couldn't help but smile and said: "In Ge Ying, I have seen Brother Xiangjiang." ”

"Hahaha, why is General Ge Ying so polite!" Mi Xiangjiang couldn't help but raise his head and laugh, the two of them turned their horses' heads, and marched side by side, at this time, Ge Ying sighed first, and then said: "Since the fall of the Chu State, the Qin State has dominated the world, since then, the Chu land has no peace at all, so many years, as a Chu person, I have always wanted to recover the Chu State, but the Qin State is still strong, the people of Chu are unstable, and it is difficult to overthrow the tyrannical Qin, until Chen Sheng revolted, I gathered more than 100 people to meet Chen Sheng, and then I had to show my strength and develop to the south. ”

Speaking of this, Ge Ying pretended to sigh, glanced at Xiangjiang, and saw that he was listening, so he continued: "Chen Sheng is not a descendant of the Chu State after all, he is soft-spoken, although the scenery in front of him is infinite, but his power is difficult to hold for a long time, it is not as prestige as the descendants of the Chu State, and he can stabilize the Chu land, and he responds to every call, so he ......"

Ge Ying deliberately paused and turned his head to stare at Mi Xiangjiang, and Mi Xiangjiang also heard the meaning of Ge Ying's words, perhaps, this is an opportunity for his own restoration, he pondered a little, and said with a smile: "If you can take Jiujiang as the foundation and spread the Quartet, with the Xiong family's century-old royal industry in Chu State, you will be able to get the response of the Quartet, and the great cause will be profitable, and the Chu State will be able to regain its majesty, break the military barrier, and overthrow the tyrannical Qin." ”

Mi Xiangjiang's thoughts coincided with his own, and Ge Ying couldn't help laughing, "I am about to promote Brother Xiangjiang to the throne of King Chu, and I hope that Brother Xiangjiang will not shirk." ”

After a brief look at each other, the two high-fived each other as an oath, and both looked up and laughed.

Three days later, Ge Ying built a high platform in the south ridge of Dongcheng, surrounded by troops, the red Chu flag fluttered in the wind, but unlike other Chu troops, their military uniforms will have gray mainly, at this time, Mi Xiangjiang is wearing a royal robe, a jade belt around his waist, a crown on his head, and his feet are Taihe boots, under the protection of several personal guards, he ascended the throne, and named Ge Ying as a general, and the rest of the people have their own rewards.
