Chapter 83: The Battle of Puyang 7

Shi Lei and Xiang Ye led the army towards Zhang Han together, but the combat effectiveness of the Qin army was obviously not as weak as they imagined, and when more than a thousand Chu troops turned the focus of their attack to Zhang Han's location, several spear walls were already neatly arranged in front of them.

The Qin army put out a spear formation, and the Chu army led by Xiang Ye couldn't catch their horses and crashed into them one after another. Many of the cavalrymen fell to the ground after their horses were pierced by spears, and as soon as their bodies hit the ground, a Qin army stepped forward and plunged spears into their bodies.

In a rush to kill, the Chu army lost nearly 100 people, Xiang Ye no longer cared about whether he would be surrounded by the Qin army, and hurriedly jumped off his war horse and pounced on the Qin army's spear array.

As he approached the spear array, dozens of spears stabbed at him in unison. With a pocket in his left hand, he dragged three or four spears, flipped his right hand, and the long sword was pointed upward, pushing the remaining spears aside, leaning forward, and crashing straight into the first heavy Qin army spear array.

After Xiang Ye crashed into the spear array, the dense spear array was suddenly knocked out, and more than a dozen Qin Jun necks gushed blood and fell under his long sword.

After Xiang Ye made a gap, Shi Lei also turned over and dismounted, and rushed into the Qin army's spear formation with a spear in hand.

The Chu army behind saw that the main general and deputy general had all dismounted, and they also knew that it was not a wise choice to continue riding on horseback in front of the spear, so they jumped off the horse one after another.

The spear array blocked the advance of the Chu army, and when the Chu army jumped off their horses, groups of Qin infantry immediately rushed up, dividing them into small areas, and the Chu army couldn't care about each other for a while.

After being surrounded by the Qin army, many Chu troops fell under the approaching spear wall, and more Chu troops were gradually compressed into groups, each forming a small defensive circle.

Xiang Ye swung his sword and slashed down a Qin army, looked back, and saw that the Chu army was divided into small pieces, he was suddenly in a hurry, and hurriedly shouted to Shi Lei: "Shi Lei, quickly, gather everyone together, don't fight on your own!" ”

"Order!" Shi Lei replied loudly, brandished his spear and turned to kill backwards.

While Shi Lei was killing backwards, Xiang Ye also retreated while fighting, retreating towards the Chu army that was divided and surrounded.

After Xiang Ye jumped off the horse, Chi Ji had been standing outside the battle group, and the two Qin soldiers saw a fiery red war horse standing on the battlefield that was much taller than ordinary horses, and hurriedly ran over to take the reins of the horse, wanting to dedicate Chi Ji to Zhang Han and win the official title.

Seeing two Qin soldiers running towards it, its two front hooves were raised high, and with a long hiss, the front hooves slammed heavily on the chest of a Qin soldier.

Qin Bing was trampled on the ground by Chiji, his chest was stepped out of two large nests, a puddle of blood spurted out of his mouth, his body trembled a few times as if he had been shocked, his head tilted, and a wisp of resentment curled away.

Another Qin soldier couldn't help but be stunned when he saw his companion being trampled to death by Chiji, and was about to turn around and flee, but Chiji was half a step faster than him turned around, and his two hind legs kicked backwards in the air.

As soon as the Qin soldier took a step, his back was as if he had been hit hard by a sledgehammer, and he didn't even have time to scream, and the whole person flew out in the air.

After kicking over the two Qin soldiers, Chi Ji hissed again, turned around and jumped out of the battle group, looking at Xiang Ye who was fighting against the Qin army from a distance.

Xiang Ye's Xianglong swordsmanship was the most powerful in the battle array, and he killed dozens of Qin troops one after another, gathering several groups of Chu troops who were originally scattered and surrounded to form a large defensive circle.

Not far away, there were many Chu troops scattered and surrounded by the Qin army, Xiang Ye was a little anxious, if he didn't gather all the scattered Chu troops as soon as possible, they would be quickly divided and wiped out by the Qin army.

"Everybody's moving closer here!" On the battlefield where the shouts of killing came one after another, Xiang Ye's shout was heard, after he stabbed the long sword into the chest of a Qin soldier, his free hand grabbed a handful of it forward, grabbed the collar of another Qin soldier, and dragged the Qin army in front of him, and the hilt of the long sword slammed into the forehead of Qin Jun.

Xiang Ye, who had experienced the Battle of Huling, knew that the battlefield was cruel, and there was only killing and being killed here, and any mercy could bring ruin to him and his companions. If he hopes that more people from the Chu army on the battlefield can return alive, he must kill as many Qin troops as possible, and only by killing more Qin soldiers can he and the Chu officers and soldiers he led win more chances of survival.

Li Xinpeng and Zhao Ben fought for nearly 100 rounds, and in the end, Zhao Ben was defeated because of his age and physical strength was not as good as Li Xinpeng.

Driving Zhao Ben away, Li Xinpeng shook the reins of his horse, and rushed towards Xiang Ye and them.

Li Xinpeng was the only one in the Chu army who was still riding a war horse, and his charge caused some confusion among a small group of Qin troops, and by the time these Qin troops came back to their senses and were ready to stop him, he had already rushed to Xiang Ye's side, turned over and jumped off his horse, and confronted the Qin army with a spear in hand.

More and more Chu troops gathered together with the efforts of Xiang Ye and others, and when the last handful of Chu troops surrounded by the Qin army gathered in Xiang Ye and their group, Xiang Ye sadly found that more than 1,000 Chu troops were only fighting for a pillar of incense, and there were less than 500 people left.

He held a long sword in his hand, a bloodthirsty resentment flashed in his eyes, he roared, and rushed towards the Qin army.

"Follow General Xiang, kill!" Shi Lei and Li Xinpeng saw Xiang Ye rushing out, and at the same time brandished a spear and yelled and followed out.

The Chu army that had just gathered saw that all the main and deputy generals had been killed, and knew that under the siege of the Qin army, if they didn't rush out in one go, they would all die, so they all shouted in unison and rushed towards the Qin army behind them.

The so-called timid are afraid of the bold, the bold are afraid of the dead, and the brave are afraid of not dying. The Chu army had long been surrounded by the Qin army's regiments and no longer had too many expectations for survival, and when they were fighting, they were completely fighting the Qin army in a desperate way, and they actually launched a decent counter-charge against the Qin army under the leadership of Xiang Ye, forcing the Qin army, which was dozens of times their number, to retreat again and again.

The plan of the Qin army was to surround these hundreds of Chu legions in the middle, and they were not in a hurry to annihilate them immediately, they thought that a long encirclement would deal a great blow to the morale of the Chu army, and the Chu army would eventually collapse completely because it could not withstand the blow.

It's a pity that the Qin army miscalculated, although the Chu army has been surrounded, but their morale has not suffered a fatal blow, but the strong oppression exerted by the Qin army has stimulated their desire to survive, and nearly 500 people have killed together, and they have actually killed a bloody way in the tens of thousands of Qin troops.

"Xiang Ye, I'm here to save you!" Just when Xiang Ye and the others were covered in blood and their physical strength was gradually exhausted, and they saw that they were about to be surrounded by the Qin army again, a loud shout came from outside the battlefield.

A white-robed general, wielding a spear, led hundreds of cavalry to rush towards the place where the fierce battle was taking place.

Seeing this person, Xiang Ye shook his head helplessly, the last thing he wanted was for this person to appear on the battlefield, but the more he was afraid of something, the more something would happen.

The white-robed general who led hundreds of Chu troops rushed over was none other than Meng Su, who Xiang Ye had been trying to protect, after she learned that Xiang Ye was under siege by the Qin army, she first asked Liu Bang to send reinforcements, but Liu Bang thought that the Qin army was not in chaos, and the time was not ripe to launch a general attack, so she rejected her request.

In desperation, Meng Su thought of Xiang Yu, Xiang Yu and Liu Bang basically had the same idea, but he did not directly refuse Meng Su's request like Liu Bang, but allocated 500 people to her, asking her to rescue first, and told her that the army would arrive later.

When Xiang Ye saw Meng Su, his mood was very complicated. He was deeply surrounded by the Qin army, and he saw that he was about to exhaust his last strength and stain the battlefield with the blood-stained and exhausted soldiers of the Chu army around him.

When he was about to despair, he suddenly killed a team of saviors, if this team of saviors was led by someone else, Xiang Ye would definitely be inexplicably excited, but these cavalry who came to the rescue were led by Meng Su, he was inevitably a little more worried.

Meng Su held a spear, and after killing the Qin army, she stabbed left and right, and the Chu army behind her was obviously much more well-trained than those led by Xiang Ye, only to see this group of Chu troops who had just come in gathered in one place, posed in the shape of an arrow, and followed Meng Su to stab directly into the Qin army.

When the reinforcements came, Xiang Ye waved the long sword in his hand and shouted: "Soldiers, the reinforcements are coming, let's kill them!" ”

Before Xiang Ye's words fell, he only heard a woman's voice in the distance: "Xiang Ye, are you still alive?" I'm here to save you! ”

Following this shout, Xiang Ye looked into the distance, and he saw from a distance that hundreds of cavalry of the Chu army were rushing towards him under the leadership of a female general, this female general was holding a halberd, and after entering the Qin army, the halberd flew up and down like a wind wheel, and all the Qin troops in front of her were all slashed to the ground by the halberd.

Seeing this female general, Xiang Ye stroked his forehead with a helpless expression, he knew very well what it meant to be the most difficult to accept the grace of a beauty. It is difficult for women to pay for a man, once they are willing to give, even when they know that they need to give their lives but still do not hesitate, there is only one explanation, and this explanation is that the man they pay for is the man who has been chosen as a man to rely on for life.

Meng Su and Xiang Qing led the army to kill Xiang Ye, and the two daughters first glanced at each other in front of Xiang Ye, and then each supported each other on the left and right, leading the army to continue to fight with the surrounding Qin army.

"When will the army arrive? We can't hold it anymore! After Xiang Ye slashed over a Qin army officer, he looked at Xiang Qing and shouted.

"I don't know!" Xiang Qing replied to Xiang Ye loudly while wielding a halberd to fight with the Qin army: "I saw Meng Su borrowing troops from my eldest brother, so I led the soldiers in front of the tent to rescue you, how would I know when the army will arrive?" ”

"General Xiang Yu said that the army will arrive later, presumably soon!" Meng Su speared, pierced the chest of a Qin general, and shouted to Xiang Ye while collecting the gun: "Fight with them, if the army does not arrive, I will die with you!" ”
