Chapter 101: Outwitting Yongqiu

Li You immediately withdrew his hand, only to hear a slight hissing sound, and a cold light rushed along his chest.

He was surprised, his chest suddenly tightened, the pain suddenly intensified, and the pain seemed to stop breathing!

Looking down, I saw that Princess Longji was urging with all her strength, the long sword as thin as a cicada's wings had completely penetrated his body, blood seeped out from his chest, Li You's body twitched twice, and then struggled to sit up.

At this moment, Xiang Zhuang and Ling'er chased after the Chu army, and when they saw the scene in front of them, they all opened their eyes wide, and they all held their breath, and on the entire battlefield, there was only the heavy snorting of war horses and the burning sound of fire.

When Princess Longji saw that Xiang Zhuang had arrived, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and when she saw that Ling'er was also beside him, her face suddenly returned to calm, and she turned her head and asked softly, "General Zhuang, what should Li You do?"

Xiang Zhuang slowly turned the horse's head around behind Li You, turned over and dismounted, and asked with a serious expression: "General Li, what else do you have to say today?"

Is this going to die? Li You's heart was at a loss.

Raising his head with some difficulty, Li You saw a young face, it was Xiang Zhuang.

Looking from the bottom up, Xiang Zhuang's face looks well-defined, a little handsome, and more heroic.

In just two years, the once powerful Great Qin Empire has been full of smoke, anti-Qin troops have come one after another, and one city after another has been breached, but the imperial court is unable to send troops to suppress it, is it really that the Great Qin Qi has run out? Looking at Xiang Zhuang in front of him, and at the fairy Princess Longji, and the imposing Chu army behind them, he seems to see the sad song of the Qin army, the end of the Great Qin Empire.

With a sudden flip of his wrist, blood splattered, and the cicada-winged sword had been completely drawn, and the blazing firelight illuminated his pale face, showing a kind of resoluteness.

"General Li!" Xiang Zhuang and Ling'er exclaimed at the same time.

Li You's face fell down calmly, his eyes slowly closed, and his body became cold.

Xiang Zhuang, Princess Longji, Ling'er and all the other Chu troops couldn't help but respect this unyielding enemy general.

Ling'er stepped forward and said, "Brother Zhuang, is General Li You's body going to be returned to the Qin army?"

"No need! you can't be merciful to the enemy!" Xiang Yu rode a black horse and galloped with a team of men and horses.

Xiang Yufei dismounted, cut off Li You's head with a sword, held Li You's bloody head high with one hand, raised the seven-killing sword with the other, and shouted at the soldiers of the Chu army: "Chase me and kill all the fleeing Qin troops." ”

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

Thousands of Chu troops shouted in response, and chased out in the direction of the Qin army's escape.

Xiang Zhuang immediately came back to his senses, leaned over Li You's corpse and turned out a brief, put it in his arms, and then got on the horse and chased out, Ling'er and Princess Longji also followed left and right.

It was chased until dozens of miles east of Qinglongling that he caught up with some of the remnants of the Qin army who fled, and it was another tragic battle, and Yu Qiu took advantage of the melee to escape to Sanchuan County.

Xiang Zhuang suddenly stopped his horse, looked back at the accompanying Gao Jian and said: "Blow the trumpet, the whole army will stop pursuing!"

"No!" the blood-covered high sword suddenly agreed, and immediately found more than a dozen horn players, and in an instant, the long and long horn sound had resounded throughout the mountains, and the soldiers of the Chu army who were enjoying the killing feast heard the horn sound, although they were unwilling, but they had to reluctantly stop the footsteps of chasing and killing the rout.

In less than a moment, Xiang Yu, Ji Bu, Zhou Bo, Fan Xu, Guan Ying, Ling'er, Princess Longji, Chen Qi, and Xia Houying hurried to Xiangzhuang's horse, everyone was in blood-stained robes, and their expressions were hideous, but when they looked at Xiang Zhuang who was riding on the horse, their eyes immediately showed a look of appreciation, and a faint admiration, yes, it was admiration!

Although Xiang Yu was also impressed by many villages, he didn't understand why Xiang Zhuang wanted to retreat, and asked, "Why don't you chase and kill the Qin army anymore?"

Xiang Zhuang said frankly to Xiang Yu: "Big brother, Li You is dead, Sanchuan County is no longer in trouble, it is not appropriate to consume troops on hundreds of remnants at this time, now is the best time to take Yongqiu, Yongqiu Taishou must not have expected that Li You has been defeated, I have a plan to take Yongqiu." ”

When Xiang Yu heard this, he was very excited, and praised from the bottom of his heart: "Brother Zhuang is really a hero!

Xiang Zhuang's dark gaze was like a sharp knife, scraping over the faces of Zhou Bo, Fan Xu, Xia Houying, and Guan Ying one by one, and then said in a deep voice: "The four of you will immediately lead the herd and wrap the hooves, and each of you will quickly rush to Yongqiu to find hidden terrain on all sides to ambush, so that the Yongqiu defenders can not be noticed, and when you see the rockets in the city, you will immediately enter the city from the four gates of the southeast, northwest, and north." ”

"No!" Zhou Bo and Fan Hao agreed to the promise, and immediately led the men and horses to lead the order.

Xiang Zhuang's gaze finally fell on Chen Qi's face, and said: "General Chen Qi, I still have to work hard for you, immediately pick up the men and horses, pretend to be Li Youqian's army, be sure to be exactly the same as the Qin army, and the guard of Yongqiu will open the city gate, and shoot rockets into the air after entering the city." At the same time, he took out Li You's official document from his arms and handed it to Chen Qi.

Chen Qi took the official document and said, "General Zhuang's plan is very good, the last general will not disgrace his life and take Yongqiu!"

Xiang Yu asked, "Brother Zhuang, what should I do?"

Xiang Zhuang said: "Big brother, Ling'er, Princess Longji will follow me as a reserve army, let's follow General Chen from a distance, and wait for General Chen to send a signal to take Yongqiu in one fell swoop." ”

"What is the last general doing?" asked Ji Bu.

"General Ji is responsible for the supply of siege materials, especially the preparation of some sulfur and fire nitrate for fire attack, etc., to ensure that nothing goes wrong and take Yongqiu. ”

"No!" Jibu took the order.

.........

Yongqiu, Du Jiang, the general of the Qin army, is discussing countermeasures with Sima Xin in the mansion, the north wind is howling outside, but the lights and candles are shining in the hall, giving people a sense of tranquility and peace.

Sima Xin said: "Lord Taishou, now the anti-thieves are gaining momentum, and they will attack the city in the near future, and I hope that the adults will take strict precautions." ”

Du Jiang said: "What Lord Sima said is very true, I have sent additional soldiers to garrison the city wall day and night, the people know that Xiang Yu is brutal, they are worried about being slaughtered, and they are sworn to resist the Chu army, I sent to ask for the rescue of Lord Li You of Sanchuan County The scout report will arrive in Yongqiu in a few days, when we are strong and strong, the rebels will not be worried, Lord Sima rest assured." ”

Sima Xin's hanging heart reluctantly relaxed, and said with a smile: "This is very good! But the Chu army is cunning, and the general is careful." ”

The guards served a plate of roast leg of lamb and mutton soup. Du Jiang smelled the aroma, and couldn't help but say: "Hey, at this time, if you take another sip of wine, it will be strong!"

The guard smiled and said, "Try this bowl of soup." As he spoke, he opened a covered eating vessel next to him. Du Jiang took a sip and sighed, this is obviously wine. The guard said: "This is the Linzi wine I prepared for the general, it has been too hard to guard against the rebels recently, it is better to drink this wine and rest for a good night, so that you can have the spirit to eliminate the rebels." ”

Du Jiang also smiled, he took a big sip, and said, "It's really exciting! Go up again, and present a good wine to Lord Sima, so that Lord Sima can also rest for a good night." ”

"Well, I'm afraid that's not right. Sima Xin shirked his mouth, but he couldn't withstand the temptation of the aroma of wine, and couldn't help but take a big sip.

"Just this once, the next step is an example!" he said, and drank another bowl.

At this time, Xiang Zhuang's army was like a silent leopard, pounced on its chosen prey!
