Chapter 167: The Battle of the Giant Deer 11
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; In a scuffle, the Qin army was once again defeated by the Chu army, and they all retreated back.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; Just when Su Jiao led his army to block the Chu army, Wang Li had already ordered the whole army to adjust the direction of defense. It's a pity that although he adjusted in time, he made the same mistake as Zhang Han.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; The Qin army, which was pursued and killed by the Chu army, fled straight towards the main formation, and quickly broke through the defense organized by Wang Ligang, and the Chu army took the opportunity to enter and melee with the Qin army.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Xiang Yu saw Wang Li who was commanding the Qin army to resist from a distance, his legs clamped the horse's belly, the black horse neighed, and the two front hooves were raised, rushing towards Wang Li.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; A group of Qin soldiers saw Xiang Yu rushing towards Wang Li, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop them, Xiang Yu didn't pay attention to them at all, and when he was about to rush to them, he lifted the reins fiercely, and the black horse fought with him for a long time, and there was already a tacit understanding between the main horsemen, only to see the black horse jump up in the air, and actually jumped over the head of the group of Qin troops.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;The group of Qin troops was taken aback when they saw the black horse jumping over their heads, and by the time they turned around, Xiang Yu had already rushed to the front of Wang Li.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; Wang Lizheng was commanding the army to fight against the Chu army, and when he saw Xiang Yu suddenly appear in front of him, he hurriedly raised his halberd to stab. Xiang Yu turned his head away, avoiding the halberd that Wang Li stabbed at him, his legs clamped the horse's belly, and the black horse jumped forward violently, rushing in front of him before Wang Li had time to collect the halberd.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; In front of Wang Li, Xiang Yu burst into a shout, grabbed Wang Li's neckline, and pulled him under the horse, Wang Li only felt a strong force leading him, and he couldn't help but fall off the horse.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; A spear was pointed at the shoulder of Wang Li, who fell to the ground and was trying to struggle to get up, Wang Li raised his head, only to see that Xiang Yu, who was pointing a spear at him, did not look at him, but looked directly at the Qin and Chu armies who were fighting.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"Wang Li has been captured, and if you don't surrender, when?" Xiang Yu pointed his spear at Wang Li, who had fallen to the ground, and shouted to the Qin army who was fighting.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; His voice was very loud, although it was on the chaotic battlefield, it still penetrated the shouts of killing one after another, and reached the ears of many Qin soldiers.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;When the Qin army heard Xiang Yu's shout, their morale suddenly fell to the bottom, and many timid Qin troops had already begun to drag their weapons and turn around and run backwards.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; The news of Wang Li's capture was undoubtedly very exciting news for the Chu army, and they shouted in unison and rushed towards the Qin army even more bravely.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; Most of the Qin troops could not withstand the attack of the Chu army, and turned around and fled outside the battlefield, only Shima led a group of soldiers to be surrounded in Wang Li's camp.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; This group of soldiers was not large, only a few dozen, and all of them were personal soldiers beside Shiruma.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; Most of the Chu troops pursued and killed the fleeing Qin army, and more than 10,000 Chu troops surrounded Shima and his personal soldiers who did not have time to escape, but swore to die.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; Looking at the Chu army surrounded by the camp, Shibu smiled bitterly and said to the soldiers beside him: "Since Xiang Yu's uncle and nephew left Jiangdong, everywhere Xiang Yu passed, they slaughtered the city to show their might, and those who surrendered will die!" Even if we can survive by luck, we will inevitably suffer humiliation, we are all courtiers of Great Qin, and now we can't sweep away the robbers, but are surrounded by the robbers, and we have no shame to see the fathers and elders in Guanzhong if we live, if we serve the country here with a death today, we can still have some dignity left! ”
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; The faces of the Qin soldiers surrounding Shima were covered with dust, and many of them were wounded, and blood was still gushing from the wounds.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; "General, we listen to you! Dozens of Qin soldiers hugged around Shijian, looking at the approaching Chu army, and at the same time let out a resolute shout.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; "Set fire to the camp!" Shibu frowned and shouted at Qin Jun beside him.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; After a few Qin soldiers with flints in their arms got the order, they hurriedly took out the flint from their arms and set the nearby camp tent on fire.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; After the tent was set on fire, the soldiers without flint rushed forward, knocked down the burning tents, and dragged the burning tents towards the other tents.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; Soon Wang Li's military camp was in flames.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Xiang Yu raised his hand to stop the Chu army that was approaching the camp, and tens of thousands of Chu troops silently watched as Shijian and dozens of Qin troops were engulfed in flames.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; None of these people who were consumed by the fire let out a terrible howl, and when the flames fell on them, they just stood silently, until their lives were baked out of their bodies, and then one by one they fell to the ground.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; Xiang Yu didn't speak, and when the Qin army's camp was completely enveloped in flames, he waved his hand at the Chu army and shouted, "Go!" ”
Except for Wang Li, the Chu army did not leave any prisoners, and all the Qin troops they caught up with were killed on the way.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; Wang Li was tied up in a mess on the back of a horse, when he saw the corpses of the Qin army all over the ground, he bit his lip tightly, because he bit too hard, his lip was bitten, and a trace of blood stains flowed out of it without realizing it.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Shima's death was a great shock to Wang Li. Shima was once Meng Tian's general, and after Wang Li took over Meng Tian's position, he followed Wang Li to fight in the south and the north, and once showed excellent command talent in the battle to eliminate Zhang Chu's general Zhou Wen.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; The most important thing is that when Xiang Yu's spear was pointed at Wang Li, Wang Li didn't even have the courage to move. However, as a general of his subordinates, Shima was able to set fire to the ** with a group of unyielding warriors at the last moment, and used their deaths to swear loyalty to Great Qin.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; "Xiang Yu, you kill me!" Wang Li, who was lying on horseback, suddenly shouted loudly at Xiang Yu's back: "If you are still a leader of the troops, you will kill me!" ”
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; Xiang Yu turned his head to look at Wang Li, and said lightly: "Why did I kill you?" ”
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; Wang Li glared at Xiang Yu angrily, from Xiang Yu's eyes, he could see the banter, which was a kind of banter that the beast played in the palm of his hand after catching its prey.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"Yikes! Wang Li let out a sudden howl of despair, writhed, and struggled to fall off his horse.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; When he fell off the horse, he deliberately put his head down, and when he landed, his head first made a heavy contact with the ground.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; Although the fall was heavy, Wang Li was not killed, he just felt his head dazed for a while, and he passed out.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; He was not killed, but the Chu army behind him did him a great favor, and a group of Chu cavalry who followed him saw him fall off his horse, and hurriedly pulled the reins to stop the pace of the horse.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; But the incident happened in a hurry, although the cavalry of the Chu army walking in front tried to pull the war horse, but the people who rushed up behind pushed them forward.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; Heavy horse hooves stepped on Wang Li, and when the Chu cavalry finally stopped the war horse and stopped, Wang Li had been trampled into a ball of flesh.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; "Report to the General! Just as Xiang Yu wrung his brows and looked at the puddle of broken meat on the ground, a cavalryman ran over, and when Xiang Yu got to the front, the cavalry turned over and jumped off the horse, half-knelt on the ground and hugged his fists and said: "Zhang Han heard that our army was attacking Wang Li, and hurriedly led the soldiers and horses to come to the rescue, and now he is halfway down!" ”
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"Yingbu, Longand, Jibu! After Xiang Yu heard the report, he hurriedly called Yingbu and the others, and said to them: "You lead the troops and horses of your headquarters to intercept the Qin army in three sections, cut them off from it, and I will lead the main force to give them a head-on attack!" ”
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; Yingbu and the others responded, and led the soldiers and horses of the headquarters in the direction of Thorn Plain.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; When the three leaders left, Xiang Yu was about to lead the main force to follow, and another cavalry ran towards him, this cavalry just arrived in front of Xiang Yu, and just like the previous cavalry, he jumped off the horse and half-knelt to salute Xiang Yu and said: "Report to the general, General Xiang Ye was seriously injured, and he woke up regardless of the doctor's dissuasion, and he had to rush to the battlefield. ”
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"Oh? Xiang Yu was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Xiang Ye to be so crazy, he was seriously injured, and he just woke up and ran towards the battlefield.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; But he didn't show any puzzlement, and said to the cavalryman: "You go back to Yafu, General Xiang Ye will hand it over to me, and I will take care of him." ”
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; The cavalry responded, turned on their horses, and ran towards the rear army of the Chu army.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; Xiang Ye rode on Chiji's back and hurried in the direction where Xiang Yu's army was. He went to see Xiang Qing just now, Xiang Qing's injuries were more serious than his, although Han Xian said that she was fine, but Xiang Ye still felt very guilty, if it wasn't for protecting him, Xiang Qing wouldn't have been injured. Since Xiang Qing couldn't even take his life for him, why couldn't he help Xiang Yu kill more enemies for Xiang Qing's sake?
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; Five healthy horses rushed towards Xiang Ye, Xiang Ye raised his head and looked at the five people who came over with his eyes a little misty.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; After Xiang Ye was injured, they had been taking Xiang Ye's headquarters to fight with Xiang Yu, and when they heard that Xiang Ye had returned, they were naturally overjoyed and hurriedly greeted him.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; But when the five of them came to Xiang Ye, they wrinkled their brows at the same time. Xiang Ye's face was pale, and his body was shaky on horseback, as if he could be blown down by a gust of wind.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; "General, ...... your wounds?" Jing Ao looked at the wound on Xiang Ye's shoulder with some concern, the linen wrapped around the wound was still oozing blood, and the linen cloth that was supposed to be white was dyed black and red by the blood.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; Xiang Ye bit his lip, shook his head vigorously, and forced himself to cheer up and asked the five people, "How is the battle?" ”
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; "We just defeated Wang Li, and Wang Li, Shijian, and Su Jiao have all been ambushed!" Wei Feng said to Xiang Ye with the reins in one hand and a spear in the other: "The 200,000 Qin army has been scattered by our army, and now it only needs to defeat Zhang Han's troops again, and the siege of the giant deer can be lifted!" ”
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; "Wang Li is dead? Xiang Ye looked at Wei Feng in some surprise and said, "Isn't he captured?" ”
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; He still remembered that in the history books it was recorded that Wang Li was captured by the Chu army, although it was not written what happened to Wang Li, but it was also not clear whether Wang Li was alive or dead.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; Wei Feng nodded, and said with some regret: "Originally, he was indeed captured by the general, but then he jumped off his horse and was trampled to death by the cavalry following behind. ”
