Chapter 165: The Battle of the Giant Deer 9
The bravery of the Chu army almost completely destroyed the morale of the Qin army, but the Qin army was still relying on the advantage of numbers.
Zhang Han originally had a plan, he wanted to fight against the Chu army with 40,000 'elite' soldiers, and when the two armies were in one place, he would feint again, and join up with the Nine-Way Qin army behind him to annihilate the Chu army in one fell swoop.
His plan was undoubtedly perfect and feasible, but he didn't expect to meet Xiang Ye's team halfway.
Five thousand people were nothing in Zhang Han's eyes, and before Wei Feng 'shot' his crown, he even thought about how many men and horses he would use to wipe out this Chu army.
But after the real battle began, he found that he was wrong, and it was very wrong, the combat effectiveness of this Chu army was different from any one he had encountered before, and the bravery of the Chu army not only shocked the Qin officers and soldiers who came with him, but also shocked Zhang Han.
Xiang Ye fought fiercely with the Qin army on the ground, and Chi Ji had been patrolling not far from him.
Some Qin soldiers saw that Chi Ji's majesty was very different from ordinary war horses, and wanted to capture it and give it to Zhang Han, but before they could rush to Chi Ji, a group of Chu soldiers rushed to them and stopped the fiery red 'hair' war horse behind them.
Two hours passed, the two sides were still fighting, and nearly half of the 5,000 Chu troops fell, but in front of the Chu army, there were nearly 10,000 corpses of Qin soldiers.
Many of the Chu army's spears were broken, and they fought with the Qin army with half-cut spears or large shields.
"Our reinforcements are coming!" The battle between the two sides was in a stalemate, and I don't know who shouted in the Chu army, and everyone on the battlefield turned their eyes in the direction of the Yellow River with this shout.
A cloud of smoke and dust rolled in from afar, and at the very front of this smoke and dust, a tower-like general rode a black war horse and rushed towards the battlefield.
"Xiang Yu is here!" I don't know who in the Qin army shouted such a voice, and the Qin army, which was already not strong in battle, suddenly fell into a panic.
Xiang Yu brandished his spear and rushed towards the Qin army who was fighting with Xiang Ye's Chu army, and a group of Qin soldiers saw Xiang Yu killed, so they screamed and dropped their weapons and turned around and ran.
Fear, this is Qin Jun's fear of Xiang Yu, the demon god, from the bottom of his bones.
Zhang Han's original plan was to feint defeat after engaging Xiang Yu, but when Xiang Yu really appeared, he found out that the feint had actually turned into a real defeat.
Xiang Yu picked up his spear and slaughtered into the Qin army, and when he rushed to Xiang Ye, who was desperately slashing the Qin army like a mad tiger, he couldn't help but glance sideways at his future brother-in-law.
Xiang Qing was injured, although he was no longer in danger of life after Han Xian's diagnosis and treatment, Xiang Yu was very dissatisfied with Xiang Ye for not protecting Xiang Qing. Xiang Qing is Xiang Liang's only 'daughter', and he is also the only little sister he regards as his own sister in the clan.
On the way to lead the army, Xiang Yu gritted his teeth with hatred, and swore that he would reprimand Xiang Ye fiercely after this battle.
But when he saw Xiang Ye, who was covered in blood but still harvested Qin Jun's life with a long sword like a mad tiger, he changed his mind.
The battlefield is inherently unforgiving, on the battlefield, there are no men and 'women', no old people and children, no strong and weak, as long as they wear armor, they are the objects of the enemy's slashing.
Xiang Ye withstood the attack of the 40,000 Qin army with 5,000 people, and the soldiers under his command were all covered in blood but were still struggling to fight with the Qin army, seeing such a scene, how could Xiang Yu harden his heart and blame these warriors who had 'handed' their lives to the battlefield because his sister was injured?
The Qin army that responded in the back rushed towards the Chu army in 'wave' segments. When these Qin troops had not yet arrived, a group of Qin troops were killed in the oblique stab.
The first Qin general was Wang Li, and after Wang Li killed Chen Yu, he rushed in the direction of the Yellow River non-stop, wanting to launch a surprise attack on the Chu army when the Chu army was not firmly established.
His movements were obviously much slower, and when he led the army to kill, Xiang Yu and Xiang Ye had already worked together to repel Zhang Han and were chasing the fleeing Qin army.
"Xiang Ye! Stop them! Seeing Wang Li's army rushing out of the spur, Xiang Yu shouted to Xiang Ye, who was covered in blood and stepped onto the horse again: "The army of Yingbu and General Pu is temporarily under your command, and after killing Wang Li, it will immediately join up with the army and annihilate the Qin army of Zhang Han's department in one fell swoop!" ”
Xiang Ye, whose eyes were red and who had not yet calmed down from the frenzy of the battle, answered, clamped his horse's belly with his legs, and shouted at the Chu army assigned to him: "Soldiers! Kill me! ”
When Xiang Ye shouted these words, more than 20,000 Chu troops shouted in unison, and rushed behind him to kill Wang Libu who had just appeared.
Wang Li was taken aback when he saw Xiang Ye, he had been fighting for several years, and he had never seen such a terrifying person. The armor has become purple and black red 'color', 'naked'.' Lu's face and arms were also red with blood on the outside, how many people would have to be killed to get to look like this?
Xiang Ye shouted frantically, and rushed towards Wang Li. Li Xinpeng and Shi Lei, who had returned to him, glanced at each other, nodded and followed closely behind him.
Both of them were wearing the armor of their own soldiers, and they followed Xiang Ye and killed Wang Lijun.
Wei Feng and Bai Fu respectively untied their bows and crossbows, and while charging, they 'shot' arrows at the Qin army. Wang Li was surrounded by a group of Qin cavalry regiments, and they could not attack him for a while, so they had to turn their attention to the partial generals of the Qin army.
With the sound of the two of them shooting with their bows and crossbows, one by one the partial generals of the Qin army fell off their horses, and when Xiang Ye rushed into the Qin army, they had already 'shot' and killed more than a dozen partial generals of the Qin army.
Before the two armies could engage in battle, the Qin army lost its generals one after another, and its morale was greatly reduced, and when Xiang Ye, who was covered in blood, rushed into the array of the Qin army, the Qin army around him all smelled a thick bloody breath.
This time Xiang Ye didn't dismount, he didn't need to dismount at all, the Qin army in front of him had already shown cowardice, when he entered the Qin army array, the Qin army close to him didn't want to rush forward and kill him for meritorious service, but retreated cowardly one by one.
On one side was the Qin army, which had no morale at all and had completely lost its fighting spirit before the engagement; On the other side was the Chu army, which was greatly encouraged by the bravery of its commander.
Although the number of people on both sides was unequal, when the Chu army entered the Qin army's array, it hunted the lives of the Qin army like a group of hungry wolves that had entered the flock.
Wang Li wanted to step forward to fight Xiang Ye, but when he saw Xiang Ye covered in blood, he felt an inexplicable sense of fear in his heart, coupled with the two helpers beside Xiang Ye who were wearing personal armor and were very good at martial arts, he couldn't find the feeling of being brave in the past at all, and subconsciously retreated.
Li Xinpeng rode on horseback, the halberd in his hand flew up, and the surrounding Qin troops fell under his halberd one by one.
"Up!" With a loud shout, Li Xinpeng's halberd was raised high, and a member of the Qin army's partial general was actually picked on the tip of the halberd by him.
"Kill!" Li Xinpeng was powerful, and Shi Lei was not ambiguous, the spear in his hand stabbed forward violently, and the spear stabbed into the 'chest' of the oncoming Qin army with a "poof".
After the spear pierced into the 'chest' of the Qin army, Shi Lei did not withdraw the barrel of the gun, but pressed forward, and the spear pierced through the back of the Qin army and pierced into the body of the Qin army behind.
"Yikes!" After a loud shout, Shi Lei actually picked up the spear that was holding the two corpses of Qin Jun, slashed it a few times, and fiercely threw the two corpses towards Qin Jun who was rushing towards him.
A large group of Qin troops were rushing towards Shi Lei, and they were hit by the two corpses, and they immediately fell. These fallen Qin troops were about to get up, and some Chu troops seized the opportunity and pounced on them, spears and swords beckoning to them.
"Withdraw! Remove! Wang Li saw that the Chu army was fierce, and knew that if he fought hard, this battle would inevitably suffer great losses, so he hurriedly ordered the army to retreat.
Xiang Ye led the army to chase for a while, then turned around and moved closer to the main force of the Chu army.
Xiang Yu led the Chu army to chase and kill Zhang Han all the way, and the soldiers and horses under Zhang Han's command were cried wolf by the ghosts killed by the Chu army, and fled without their lives.
Just as the Qin army was fleeing, an army with the banner of Great Qin appeared, seeing this army, Zhang Han's heart calmed down a little, and shouted to the Qin army who fled for their lives: "Our reinforcements are coming!" Turn back and fight the thieves to the death! ”
Although his shouts were loud, in the chaotic battlefield, where could anyone hear him clearly, in fact, even if someone could hear him clearly, they would not pay attention to him in this situation.
No one does not cherish life, soldiers and generals have only one life, after they die in battle, they will completely disappear from this world, although they are not as noble as generals, but they also do not want to die on the battlefield.
There were more and more banners of the Qin army that appeared behind, and Xiang Yu looked up, and there were as many as eight banners of the Qin army that appeared in his field of vision.
The black-pressed Qin army rushed towards the Chu army like a flood, and seeing so many enemies, Xiang Yu not only did not have a trace of fear, but was a little excited.
Since he raised his troops in Jiangdong, although he has experienced dozens of battles, he has never led 50,000 soldiers and horses to contend with 400,000 enemies like today.
If this battle fails, the only way to face him and the 50,000 Chu army is death; But if he wins, the prestige of the Chu army will spread far and wide all over the world in the future, and no one will dare to compete with the Great Chu Xiongshi in the southern and northern wars!
"Kill!" Xiang Yu shouted violently, brandishing a spear to speed up the pursuit of Zhang Han.
Zhang Han's soldiers and horses were busy fleeing in a chaotic manner, and the Qin army who came to support them saw them running around with their heads in their hands, and thought that they were feinting defeat according to the original plan, they were just about to list the formation and fight the Chu army, but they didn't expect those defeated Qin troops to break into their queue without any scruples, and the queue was immediately dispersed.
