Chapter Seventy-Nine: Soldiers Descend on the City

Outside the city of Dong'e, the clouds are rolling in the sky. In the gap between the heavy dark clouds, the sunlight finally broke through the clouds, and the wisps of sunlight leaked between the sky and the earth. Looking into the distance, the mountains are undulating, continuous, at the end of spring, the beginning of summer, the sun flickered and darkened, and it was because of this that you could see the clouds flowing like water in the Tianshan Mountains.

Early in the morning, a rapid sound of horses' hooves sounded, galloping towards Xiang Yu's big tent.

Ji Bu entered Xiang Yu's big tent and said with a solemn expression: "Young General, Tian Rong, the commander of the Qi army, relied on his own meritorious service in attacking Qin, and when he returned to the division, he abolished the newly established Qi Wang Tian Jiao, and supported Tian Shi, the eldest son of Tian Zhan, the king of Qi who died in battle, as the king of Qi. Tian Jiao fled to Pengcheng and joined Wu Xinjun, while Tian Jiao, the prime minister of Tian Jiao, fled to Zhao and joined his brother Tian Ma, who had already fled from Zhao. Now Tian Rong asked us to kill Tian Jiao, and Zhao killed Tian Jiao in the field before he was willing to send troops. The last general had no choice but to come back and ask the general to make a decision?"

Xiang Yu was furious: "Tian Rong, who has no overall situation, is a big enemy, and he doesn't want to break the enemy, but he only knows that he cannibalism, and there is more than enough success and defeat, you go and tell him that Tian Fake was originally the king of my Chu country's allies, and he was desperate to vote for my Chu country, and our army couldn't bear to kill him." ”

Ji Bu thought for a while and said: "Tian Rongnai is a small-minded person, and the young general failed to fulfill his wishes, so it is expected that he will still not send troops." ”

Xiang Yu said contemptuously: "Without that rabble, I, Xiang Yu, would still be able to clean up Sima Xin and Qin's soldiers." You send a messenger to make a trip, and we will go after the Qin army. ”

Xiang Yu then ordered Xiang Zhuang, Ling'er, and Ji Bu to immediately lead the soldiers to chase and kill Sima Xin, chase them outside Chengyang City, and find out that Sima Xin had merged with Chengyang Guard Chen Qi to resist the Chu army together.

Xiang Yu ordered the soldiers to secretly camp on the side of a mountain 100 miles away from Chengyang, and ordered the generals to have lunch and go to the main general's camp to wait for dispatch.

Xiang Yu commanded majestically: "Xiang Zhuang and others led 10,000 cavalry to the left to surround it, and Hu Ling and others led 10,000 troops to the right to surround it." ”

He also ordered: "Ji Bu, Xiang It, Xiang Qiang, Xiang Long, and others each led 5,000 infantry to besiege from the southeast, northwest, and north. ”

He himself led 10,000 cavalry to attack from the front, waiting for dark to launch a surprise attack, and ordered his soldiers to be ready for battle.

Sima Xin in Chengyang City lost his troops and lost his generals, and was looking for Chen Qi in the Taishou Mansion to discuss countermeasures, and just sat down and sighed, before he could speak, the guard general Chen Qi said: "Why does Lord Sima sigh for a long time?"

Sima Xin said: "I and General Zhang's soldiers divided into two ways to recover the lost territory occupied by the Qi army, I don't want to meet Xiang Yu's Chu army traitors, that Xiang Yu is brave and good at fighting, he has a lot of strange people and fierce generals, superb spells, and good planning, so that the old man not only lost Dongyang, but also lost countless losses, and now fled here, I hope that General Chen will defend it strictly to prevent the Chu army from sneaking attack." ”

"Master Sima, don't worry too much, with me Chen Qi here, if Xiang Yu'er comes, it will be self-defeating, and adults will look at my means. Chen Qi's voice was full of smiles.

Sima Xin was apprehensive and said, "General Wanwang Chen is cautious and subtle, and must not underestimate the enemy. ”

Suddenly, a fierce light appeared in Chen Qi's eyes, and his forehead suddenly opened, and he said with a smile: "A murderous aura rose several miles outside the city, rushing straight into the city, it must be Xiang Yu'er's chasing soldiers who want to attack the city at night." ”

Sima Xin was shocked and said: "It turns out that the general has divine eyes, and I expect that the general must have extraordinary skills, today Xiang Yu attacked at night, how will the general resist the enemy?"

Chen Qi was calm and calm, and said confidently: "I am a member of the Baiyue clan in southern Xinjiang, the secret techniques of my clan are extremely exquisite, and the magic weapons handed down by my clan are all treasures of the world, just wait for Xiang Yu'er to arrive, and the adults will see my means." ”

Sima was overjoyed and said, "That's very good. "My heart gradually settled down.

Chen Qi recruited a few more partial generals and ordered them to do so, and those partial generals were suddenly full of energy, and said: "The general is wonderful, and tonight is scheduled to fight to the death against the thieves." ”

That night, I saw the wind blowing, the black fog in the city covered the sky and the moon, the boundless darkness surged in all directions, the haze soaked into everyone's hearts silently, and the silence was terrible everywhere.

Ling'er felt strange in her heart, and the closer she got to the city, the more confused she became. Although the city looks brightly lit, it is surprisingly quiet, there is not a single defender on the city wall, which is too abnormal, in the past, the Qin army was densely packed with soldiers, this time I couldn't even see a single soldier, didn't even have a few patrols?

Ling'er was the vanguard of the team, so he hurriedly ordered to suspend his advance, and personally turned around and went back to find Xiang Yu.

Because the front team stopped, Xiang Yu sat on his horse and looked at the city carefully. He also felt that the city walls were empty, and not a single defender was too abnormal.

"Major General. Ling'er rode his horse to the front.

The soldiers were still on standby, but for some reason they stopped, and their hearts were hesitant. Although it is inconvenient to talk to each other, they all question each other with their eyes.

"The city was very quiet, and there was not a man guarding the walls. Ling'er's horse head approached Xiang Yu's horse head, and Ling'er also lowered her voice.

"Do you want to go back here?" Xiang Yu asked in an affirmative tone.

Ling'er also knew that the army had already come to the city, and Brother Yiyu's character would never retreat at this time, so after thinking about it, he whispered, "Sima Xin is treacherous, it's better for the young general to lead the army to wait and see here, Ling'er will lead the army to sneak attack, in case there is fraud, it is better to retreat and withdraw." ”

Xiang Yu knew that although he should be like this, he hesitated again: "Since you are pouring out of the nest and are afraid of the tail, how can you win a big victory?"

Before Xiang Yu could give an order, the front army gradually rioted.

Ling'er and Xiang Yu glanced at each other, and their expressions couldn't help but become nervous.

"Ling'er goes first, and the young general breaks off!" Ling'er didn't wait for Xiang Yu's order, and had already rushed forward on horseback.

I saw a strange wind coming, the wind was violent, like a tiger howling a wolf, and like a beast roaring, suddenly the dust flew, the river and the sea were overturned, the flowers and plants withered together, the trees were cut down as if they were together, and the clouds and fog blew like a tornado.

The soldiers were frightened by the hurricane, and they were unsteady on their feet, so they turned around and ran back.

Xiang Yu came on horseback, and shouted angrily when he saw this scene: Where are the monsters here to bewitch the hearts of the army, and they have the ability to come out to fight with me, and all the soldiers and cowards will not be killed. ”

When the soldiers of the Chu army heard Xiang Yu's shout, they immediately made up their minds, and they turned back one after another to fight the enemy.

I saw a burly man in a purple robe in the wind, surrounded by six snake skull chains, a rich black air flow around his body, riding a fierce tiger roaring from the city and flying up the city wall, holding a long whip in one hand, the long whip waved, as if opening a mechanism, countless neatly arranged Qin soldiers slowly rose from all sides of the city wall, and a bowbow and crossbow with a winding bow and crossbow were aimed at the Chu army outside the city.

The burly man shouted: "Is it Xiang Yu'er?"

Xiang Yu said angrily: "It's your Grandpa Xiang, who boldly reported his name?"

Dahan said: "I am Chen Qi, the guard general of the Qin army, you killed countless soldiers of my Qin, and relied on force to kill innocent people indiscriminately, Xiang Yu Xiaoer, you are under the banner of destroying the tyrannical Qin, and you are doing things against the sky, and you are sent to the door today to seek a way to die." ”

Xiang Yu's face was so angry that his face was pale, and his eyes were about to erupt with fire, and the sound of Sen Han's sword roar came out angrily.
