Bai Fu and Wei Feng said undiminished that the fire was not easy to put out, Xiang Ye frowned, he pondered for a while before saying to the two: "I want the soldiers to hide behind the big shield, in a group of three, not to target the Qin army in the city, only shoot rockets high, and attack for a whole day, do you think it is feasible?" ”

"Will Xiang Yu agree?" At this time, Meng Su, who had been sitting next to him and did not speak, opened his mouth and said: "Xiang Yu's tactics have always been to attack, like this method of delay, I'm afraid he won't approve of it!" ”

Xiang Ye sighed, and said with some amazement: "But if I urge the soldiers to go to the attack, I'm afraid there are not many chances of success, if I can light a fire in the city, the people and defenders in the city will inevitably divide their energy to fight the fire, so that the purpose of dispersing the enemy army can be achieved, and when the garrison in the city is relaxed, and then launch a strong attack, it will be broken in one fell swoop!" ”

Meng Su furrowed her brows and didn't speak, but she felt a little dissatisfied with Xiang Ye's arrangement in her heart, and always felt that although it might cause trouble to Qin Jun, she would not be as optimistic as Xiang Ye thought.

Wei Feng and Bai Fu didn't speak, and the two of them were not very optimistic about Xiang Ye's plan. Rockets are generally used to disperse the enemy, or when the enemy is surrounded in a house in order to force people out, and there is no precedent for Xiang Ye's use in large-scale sieges.

Xiang Ye looked at everyone, patted his hands on his thighs and said: "If you all have no objections, this matter will be done, today's third watch, Bai Fu and Wei Feng are responsible for leading the crossbowmen to attack the city!" ”

"How long?" After Xiang Ye gave the order, Bai Fu and Wei Feng asked at the same time.

"Until dawn." After Xiang Ye said this, he waved his hand at the two of them and said, "You guys go and rest first, tonight's attack is also dangerous and abnormal, and you still need to maintain a lot of physical strength!" ”

After Wei Feng and Bai Fu left, Xiang Ye stood up, walked to Meng Su's side, stretched out two hands, took her little hands and dragged her up, and then wrapped his hands around her soft waist and said softly: "What are you coming to me for?" ”

Meng Su lowered his head, pursed his red lips, and after a long while, he raised his head and looked at Xiang Ye's eyes and said shyly, "Are you really willing to marry me?" ”

Xiang Ye smiled and nodded, took Meng Su into his arms, and said softly: "I don't know when you have become the most important woman in my heart, and I will definitely make you my wife." ”

"What about Xiang Qing?" Xiang Ye's promise did not make Meng Su lose her mind happily, she said a little sourly: "You also promised to marry her as a wife." ”

"Xiang Qing has some affection for me, and with General Xiang Yu's matchmaker, I have no choice but to marry her." Xiang Ye shook his head bitterly, this question was the last thing he wanted to mention, he knew very well that if women were sour, men's jealousy towards them would be completely incapable of controlling.

To Xiang Ye's surprise, Meng Su did not show jealousy, but gently leaned his head on his chest and didn't say a word for a long time.

"I'll marry you." Xiang Ye stroked Meng Su's hair and said affectionately.

Monsu just buried his head in his arms and nodded slightly.

"General, General Xiang Yu summoned you to listen to the order!" While the two were hugging each other tightly, the shouts of the soldiers came from outside the tent.

Hearing the shout, Xiang Ye let go of Meng Su, who was hugging him, and said helplessly: "It seems that Xiang Yu is eager to break through Yongqiu, but Li You is impregnable, and it is really not easy to break through!" I'll go see what he's looking for me now, and I'll be back later! ”

Meng Su nodded, and when Xiang Ye walked to the door, she suddenly stopped Xiang Ye.

Xiang Ye turned his head, looked at Meng Su who was still speechless in surprise, and asked with some puzzlement, "What else is going on?" ”

"Can you promise me one thing?" Meng Su pursed his lips and groaned for a while before muttering: "Once Yongqiu City is broken, I hope you can save Master Li, he is as kind to me as a mountain, I can't watch him die." ”

Xiang Ye nodded as if he had given Meng Su an answer, but when he turned around and walked out of the tent, his heart was as uncomfortable as if he had knocked over a five-flavor bottle.

Li You and Xiang Ye did not have a deep friendship, but when he was in Xingyang, he saved Xiang Ye's life, and Xiang Ye was always unforgettable. This attack on Yongqiu is inevitable for Xiang Yu and the Chu army, and Li You's efforts are just a mantis arm as a car, and sooner or later it will fail.

History has told him that in the Battle of Yongqiu, Li You must die. He didn't want Li You to die, and Meng Su made the same request to him, all he could do was to do his best to find Li You at the moment when the city was broken, and then capture him so that he would not die in the chaos.

When he returned to Xiang Yu's big tent, Xiang Qing was still there, and at the same time, there was one more person in the big tent, a Chu army wearing partial general armor.

The armor on this general's body was damaged in several places, and blood was faintly oozing outward from the damage. He looked very embarrassed, his face was covered in dust, and he looked like he had just experienced a big battle.

As soon as Xiang Ye entered the big tent, Xiang Yu beckoned to him again and again and said: "Brother-in-law, you came just in time, Chen Wu led the army to block Zhang Han's reinforcements a few days ago, and encountered Sima Qu, the general of Zhang Han's department who came to support twenty miles away, the enemy army was numerous, and our army was defeated. You should put aside the matter of attacking Yongqiu, and lead 3,000 people to support Chen Wu, and be sure to break the Qin army to prevent our army from suffering in the future. This time to block the enemy army, Xiang Qing will go with you. ”

Getting Xiang Yu's order, Xiang Ye breathed a long sigh of relief, he was still thinking about how to spend a day with the Qin army in Yongqiu, and only launched a general attack the next day, it happened that Xiang Yu sent him out to attack the Qin army reinforcements, this was a good opportunity to delay, he did not hesitate to accept this order.

Gathering 3,000 soldiers and horses, Xiang Ye and Xiang Qing followed the Chu army generals who came to report on the road to march all the way, wanting to rush to reinforcements before the Chu army retreated.

These 3,000 people were all cavalry, and Xiang Ye deliberately only ordered cavalry when he ordered troops. In the siege, the cavalry did not play any role at all, and there was not much to do in Yongqiu, and the cavalry of the Chu army was simply equipped, which was only suitable for launching a surprise attack, and was not suitable for charging and killing in battle formations at all.

Xiang Ye chose them in order to only make full use of the characteristics of rapid mobility and kill the Qin army's reinforcements by surprise.

The army was marching rapidly, and Xiang Qing always wanted to ride forward with Xiang Ye, but Xiang Ye was not riding an ordinary war horse, but a famous horse Chiji, so she could only look at Xiang Ye's back and sigh from behind.

When the team rushed forward for more than ten miles without stopping, only a shocking shout of killing was heard from a distance.

In the dark, Xiang Ye faintly saw a group of Chu troops who had lost their armor and were running towards them. Behind these Chu troops, there was the Qin army that was chasing after them.

Seeing the Chu army chasing after him, Xiang Ye slapped his horse, drew his long sword, and rushed towards the Chu army, which was retreating like a tide.

"I am Xiang Ye, the pioneer of General Xiang Yu's account, leading the army to support General Chen Wu, you will quickly turn back, fight to the death with the Qin people, and those who dare to flee will be killed!" Rushing close to the defeated and fleeing Chu army, Xiang Ye waved his long sword, knocked down the person who was running in front with a sword, and shouted to the panicked Chu army.

The defeated Chu army saw that a person suddenly rushed out of front and shouted that they were coming for reinforcements, they were stunned at first, and before they could come to their senses, the three thousand cavalry brought by Xiang Ye and Xiang Qing also appeared in their field of vision.

As soon as these Chu troops saw the reinforcements arriving, they didn't care how many reinforcements came, they all shouted in unison, picked up their weapons, and killed the Qin army that was chasing them.

"Reinforcements are coming, brothers, kill!"

"Reinforcements are coming, we're saved!"

There were excited shouts of the Chu army everywhere, and what contrasted with this was the instant collapse of the morale of the Qin army.

A soldier of the Chu army who fled behind saw that he was about to be caught up by the Qin army, and as soon as he heard that the reinforcements were coming, he immediately turned around and slashed his head at the Qin army behind him.

The Qin army only cared about chasing, not guarding against the soldiers of the Chu army who would suddenly turn around, and in shock, their heads had been split into two pieces.

This Chu soldier did not stop after slashing and killing one person, and the shield in the other hand smashed down on the head of the other Qin soldier who rushed over. The Qin soldier only paid attention to the short sword in his hand, where did he think that he would smash it with a shield, and he was hit by a shield on his temple, and his head was suddenly stunned, and he fell to the ground.

After the Chu soldiers smashed over the Qin soldiers, they took a step forward, flipped their wrists, squatted on the ground and stabbed the short sword straight into the heart of the Qin soldier, and with a burst of blood rushing out of the Qin soldier's chest, there was another wisp of unjust souls killed on the battlefield.

Xiang Ye rode a horse, and after slashing and killing more than a dozen Qin troops who were fighting separately, he stopped a Chu soldier and asked in a loud voice, "Where is General Chen Wu?" ”

The soldier was depressed when he was chased by the Qin army before, and he was killing at this time, but he was stopped by Xiang Ye, thinking that it was the Qin army, and with a slash of the short sword, he slashed at the war horse under Xiang Ye's crotch.

Xiang Ye's long sword was horizontally downward, blocking the short sword slashed by the Chu soldiers, stirring it aside, and shouting, "Where is General Chen Wu?" ”

Chu Bing was stunned by his drink like this, and when he saw that the person he had just chopped was actually a partial general of his own army, he was immediately frightened into a cold sweat, and stammered and pointed to the most fierce place in front of him and said: "General Pu is retreating slowly, and he is surrounded by the Qin army!" ”

Xiang Ye didn't talk nonsense with this soldier anymore, he shook the reins, and gently pinched Chi Ji's abdomen with his legs, Chi Ji let out a long hiss, and quickly rushed towards the most dense place of the Qin army in front.

After entering the battle group, Xiang Qing was worried about Xiang Ye's safety, and approached him while killing the enemy, and when he saw Xiang Ye rushing towards the most dense place of the Qin army, he was immediately in a hurry, and hurriedly rode his horse and followed behind to kill the Qin army.
