After Yingbu and General Pu led the army and set off, Xiang Ye also led his troops and horses to the bank of the Yellow River.

He did not follow the same path as the British army, but made a detour to the northwest, deliberately slowing down the pace of the march a little. (text only)

The 5,000 soldiers and horses under Xiang Ye's command were not really 'elite' in the Chu army, most of his soldiers were surrendered during the first western expedition, and even some were recruited in Pengcheng with little combat experience, which was also the reason why Xiang Yu did not let him fight the Qin army head-on as the main force, but only launched an attack from the rear of the Qin army as a surprise army.

Leading the soldiers and horses of his headquarters, Xiang Ye tried to avoid the main road along the way, passed through some wasteland without roads, and rushed straight to the edge of the Yellow River.

There are many warships in the place where Yingbu crosses the river, and if Xiang Ye wants to avoid the eyes and ears of the Qin army, it is impossible for him to cross the river from a place where there are warships, and Xiang Yu is indeed a problem for him.

When he was about to reach the bank of the Yellow River, Xiang Ye ordered the soldiers to cut down many trees, and when the soldiers who went to cut down trees came back with dozens of big trees, he ordered the soldiers to tie these trees side by side with hemp rope, and it took nearly two hours to build a huge raft.

This raft is several feet wide, and there are thick ropes wrapped with several hemp ropes tied at both ends of the raft, and after the soldiers built this strange guy, they all looked at Xiang Ye with some suspicion, not knowing what he wanted to do when he 'made' such a thing.

"Who has the ability to swim across the river?" When the raft was built, Xiang Ye looked at the five thousand Chu troops in front of him and asked loudly.

As soon as his voice fell, hundreds of people raised their hands, these people have lived by the river since childhood, and their daily entertainment is to toss back and forth like fish in the river, swimming over the river where the current is not very fast, naturally it will not take too much effort to look good:.

"I need you to swim across the river." When these people raised their hands, Xiang Ye said to them: "Now that the weather is cold, jumping into the river will definitely not be as comfortable as swimming in the river before, if you dare not go into the water, you can put your hand down." ”

After listening to Xiang Ye's words, Chu Jun, who raised his hand, looked at each other, and several of them retracted their arms slightly, as if they wanted to put their hands down, but after seeing that the other companions did not let go, they raised their hands high again.

Xiang Ye nodded, and said with great satisfaction to these Chu Jun who raised their hands: "Very good, you are all warriors, go and prepare first, and then in a group of ten people, tie them to their waists with hemp rope, and the first person in each group will go down the river with wood, and wait until you all cross the river, and then pull the raft from the opposite side and pull the whole army over!" ”

After half a pillar of incense, those Chu Jun who had good water 'sex' had already 'made' their whole body cold and fart-free with the cold river water. The strands were soaked in water. "Search to see the fastest"

The biting water of the river passed by them, and at first they shivered and could not adapt to the temperature of the river, but gradually they got used to it, and some of them even began to toss up and down like carp in the water.

Xiang Qing frowned, looked at the red and churning men in the river, pursed his lips tightly, and didn't say anything.

Xiang Ye reached out and gently poked her waist, and whispered, "It's very enjoyable, right?" Look at so many bare farts. How do you feel about the man swimming? ”

Xiang Qing snorted lightly, and said without being salty: "What is this?" Isn't it just men, except for you, I'm afraid that no man is naked that will make me feel that if you are naked and standing with them now, I will definitely take a closer look at you from head to toe. ”

"Ugh!" Xiang Ye didn't expect that he wanted to make fun of Xiang Qing, but he was mercilessly ridiculed by Xiang Qing, smiled a little embarrassedly, turned around and raised his hand high, and shouted to those Chu soldiers in the river: "Cross the river!" ”

With his order, the Chu army in the river pulled the water surface and swam towards the other side of the river like carp scrambling to jump the dragon gate.

Xiang Ye pressed the hilt of his sword with his hand and looked at the Chu officers and soldiers in the river with a frown. The 'bed' of this section of the Yellow River was very wide, and the current was also very gentle, and those Chu troops floated and fell in the river, and soon some people climbed to the opposite bank.

The Chu army on the opposite bank pulled the rope tied to his waist hard, helping Tong Ze behind him to speed up his landing.

More than 100 people quickly went ashore, and when all of them landed on the shore, they pulled the ropes tied to the big raft and beckoned to Xiang Ye on the other side of the river.

Seeing those Chu soldiers waving, Xiang Ye hurriedly led the horse to the big raft, and accompanied him to board the big raft with Xiang Qing and others and a large group of Chu officers and soldiers.

Before getting on the raft, Xiang Ye asked people to put the clothes of the Chu army pulling the rope on the other side on the raft, and after they were all standing, he waved his hand at the Chu army on the other bank.

Those bare-fart. Seeing Xiang Ye waving, Chu Jun, who was dragging the big thick hemp rope, shouted in unison, and pulled the rope tied to the raft and dragged it towards the opposite bank.

The raft moved slowly, and it didn't take long for it to reach the other side.

"Put on your clothes and rest first!" As soon as Xiang Ye landed on the shore, he personally picked up a few sets of armor and handed them to the Chu soldiers who swam over first, and said, "Brothers, you have worked hard, I, Xiang Ye, will never forget what you have done for Da Chu today!" ”

Xiang Ye's words stunned the Chu soldiers who came first, they have been soldiers for so long, and they have never been so cared about by any general, many Chu soldiers were holding the clothes and armor that Xiang Ye brought to them, and they forgot to put them on for a while, with tears in their eyes, and couldn't stop saying: "Thank you to the general, thank the general, I am willing to go to the soup for the great Chu and the general!" Never give up! ”

These Chu army's performances made Xiang Ye feel a little crying and laughing, it was he who drove them into the water on a cold day, let them swim across the Yellow River, and suffered from the cold for half a day. If this matter is placed more than 2,000 years later, Xiang Ye has no doubt that the person who gave this order will be scolded bloodily, even if the soldier does not dare to scold, in his heart, he must have greeted the whole family of the person who gave the order, "female" and "sexual".

The soldiers of the Chu army who swam across the Yellow River obviously did not have this kind of consciousness, not only did they not slander Xiang Ye to give such an order that lacked human 'nature', but after Xiang Ye said two words of concern, they were 'excited' and almost jumped up and hugged his big 'legs' and called him "relatives".

"The times really determine people's worldview and outlook on life." Xiang Ye smiled bitterly in his heart, but his face showed a look of loving soldiers, very distressed by those swimming Chu Jun, and said to them: "Don't be stunned, put on your clothes quickly, don't freeze!" ”

As soon as these words were spoken, those Chu Jun who were holding the armor in their hands had tears in their eyes, and silently put on the armor, although Xiang Ye had already ordered them to rest first, but after they put on their armor, they still rushed forward to help Tong Ze pull the hemp rope tied to the raft.

With this method, Xiang Ye's 5,000 soldiers and horses soon crossed the Yellow River, and if he suddenly led his army towards the main formation of the Qin army at this time, I am afraid that the unsuspecting Qin army would also be beaten into a 'chaos'.

But Xiang Ye is not the kind of person who likes to take risks for the sake of merit, and when all the troops and horses have crossed the river, he waved his hand at the whole army and said, "All the troops obey the order and march east along the river bank with me to support General Yingbu and General Pu!" ”

After Yingbu and General Pu crossed the river, they quickly set up a defensive formation on the bank of the river to strictly prevent the Qin army from attacking, and guarded the mouth of the river for the Chu army on the opposite side of the riverbank.

When Xiang Yu led his army to be stationed in Dingtao, Zhang Han thought that the Chu army was just bluffing like other princes, and he must not dare to cross the river easily to fight a decisive battle with the Qin army, so he did not defend the riverbank.

When he received the news that Yingbu and General Pu led their troops to cross the river, he was taken aback, and hurriedly ordered Dong Fei and Sima Xin to lead 20,000 soldiers and horses to attack, wanting to 'force' the Chu army back to the other side of the river.

Dong Fei and Sima Xin led the army to the bank of the Yellow River, and saw from a distance that Yingbu and General Pu had already prepared a defense, and the two sides were equal in number, fighting on flat ground, comparing courage and tactics.

Sima Xin and Dong Peng divided the army into two routes, wanting to launch a siege of the Chu army from both flanks.

In the face of the surging Qin army, Yingbu and General Pu adopted the tactic of static braking, and they placed 20,000 Chu troops in a circular formation to defend against the Qin army's attack from all sides.

"Kill!" Sima Xin on the left flank took the lead in attacking the Chu army, and the cavalry of the Qin army held shields and 'stood up' with spears to kill the Chu army in a circle.

At the same time as Sima Xin launched an attack, Dong Peng, who had already detoured to the right side, also led his army to rush towards the Chu army.

"Archer, locate!" Seeing the Qin army attacking, Yingbu shouted loudly: "All archers aim to the right, ignore the Qin army on the left, and crush the Qin army on the right in one go!" ”

With his order, the archers of the Chu army aimed their bows and arrows at the Qin army led by Dong Fei.

"Whoosh!" After a burst of arrows breaking through the air, a row of arrows flew towards the Qin army, but due to the distance, these arrows did not pose a threat to the Qin army, but were nailed to the ground and trembled slightly.

Seeing the arrows of the Chu army falling to the ground, Dong Fei, who was sitting in the rear army to command the attack, laughed and shouted loudly: "Yingbu Xiaoer! Are you afraid of seeing General Ben like this? Shoot arrows at such a distance! If you are afraid, kneel in front of General Ben and call Grandpa a few times, General Ben will consider leaving you a whole corpse today! ”

Due to the distance, although Dong Fei shouted loudly, Yingbu didn't hear a word, and his shouting only caused Qin Jun who were huddled around him to let out a burst of laughter.

The Qin cavalry on the left and right flanks rushed towards the Chu army quickly, and when the Qin cavalry on the right flank reached the position of the arrows that were 'inserted' in the ground, the Chu archers opened their bowstrings again and poured the arrows towards them.

The arrows of all the archers of the Chu army were 'shot' to the right side, and the cavalry of the Qin army on the right saw that they were getting closer and closer to the large array of the Chu army, but a black and oppressive arrow rain suddenly flew in the sky, and many people could not block it with their shields, and they were hit by arrows and fell off their horses.
