Chapter 4 No Truce
Yongqiu left school field.
The generals from the two camps under Li Yuan have firmly controlled this place, and the Qin army's structure in the city has been completely disrupted. The Qin soldiers who originally guarded the school grounds were mostly served by the anti-theft pavilions in the city, and their combat effectiveness was negligible. What's more,
It was the same friendly forces that came to occupy it.
"Hu Lu Lu!" A war horse neighed, and not far away, the shouts of the Chu army soldiers could be heard. The stable was an important place for cavalry to rest in this era. Although it was located in the west of the city, it was blocked by two partition walls.
Now, the Chu army is not familiar with the road conditions in the city and will not be able to reach the school grounds for a while.
"Marquis, there are few horses and many people, what should we do?" Seeing Li Yuan coming here with hundreds of people, Hou Xi, the secretary in charge of counting the grain and fodder personnel, was at a loss.
Hou Xi, a native of Xianyang, was twenty-two years old in his thirties. He joined the army in the twenty-seventh year of the First Emperor's reign and was a first-class official. In Hou Xi's resume, there is no record of how many levels of beheadings there were. If he were not able to write, and in terms of numbers
If they were talented, ordinary soldiers like Hou Xi would probably become cannon fodder early on.
Hou Xi was responsible for recording Li Yuan's military exploits in killing Cai Ci. Hou Xi naturally had to fawn over a warrior like Li Yuan who could kill the enemy in battle, but he had a dark eye for Li Yuan and did not recognize any warriors for the time being.
For those who travel through time, Hou Xi was the first person to talk to him, and he naturally became the target of his wooing.
There are more than 300 war horses, and there are about 500 generals of the Qin army following them. On the way to escape, there are horses and horses, which are almost the difference between life and death. At this time, if the Qin army internally stirs up trouble, the Chu army does not need to attack.
This group of broken soldiers will disperse on their own.
"Send the order, line up!" Li Yuan shouted, the voice was not loud, but it was enough for the surrounding soldiers to hear clearly. After witnessing Li Yuan's series of arrangements, even the soldiers who were not Li Yuan's troops agreed to accept Li Yuan's orders.
unified command.
There is strength in numbers!
There is only one fate for stragglers, they are killed!
"Scouts, come out!"
"Crossbowmen, come out!"
"Good riders, step forward!"
"The rest of the people are waiting. If there is a charioteer, please mount the horse and give it a try!"
Without more complicated orders, Li Yuan immediately started the process of selecting breakout cavalry. The Qin army had strict military discipline. As a military prince, he was the highest decision-maker, and his orders were the instructions for action.
Soon, the cavalry of the Qin Army was almost full. In addition to Li Yuan's more than 70 old soldiers, the remaining horses were also divided up by the Qin soldiers. Whether the riding skills were good or not, judging from the posture of mounting the horse, the strength of the legs,
The action of kicking the horse's belly can be easily detected by the look on the soldier's face. Everyone has a standard in mind.
Survival of the fittest.
According to the laws of nature, there are still more than 200 Qin soldiers who have been eliminated. Many of them cast envious glances at the cavalry.
"Marquis Li Jun, I have something to ask of you. If possible, please send this thing to the home of Mr. Zheng, Didao, Dingxi County. If you do this, it will be a pity that you will die!" In the infantry queue, a man with a beard and a beard dressed as a commander looked at Li Yuan and said,
He stepped forward with heavy steps, his hands tightly holding an object wrapped in cloth, with a few lines of bloody words hidden on it.
"What's your surname, a strong man?" Li Yuan took the cloth bag and nodded in agreement.
"A certain Zheng Chengzhong, line 2." When the man saw Li Yuan's answer, a relieved smile appeared on his face. The worries in his heart were gone. He no longer hesitated and turned back to the infantry formation.
"Jiujiu Lao Qin, restore our rivers and mountains, and we will fight until the blood dries out!" Zheng Jiu sang the Qin army's war hymn in a hoarse voice. At first, he sang alone, then slowly, several people, and then dozens of people sang.
, and then five hundred Qin soldiers shouted in unison.
"A certain Liu Wu, from Xianyang!"
"Su Da is from Jiuyuan, Shangjun. I have an old man in his seventies!"
One after another, the Qin army's infantry walked to the front of the team, stopped in front of Hou Xi, the secretary-general, reported the names of their relatives who needed to be recorded, and put down the things around them that were most worth worrying about.
This moment is the difference between life and death.
"Gentlemen, mount your horse! Kill the enemy!" Li Yuan's eyes were wet. The brotherhood on the battlefield was the same a thousand years ago, and it will be the same a thousand years later. He seemed to have returned to the time when he fought side by side with his good brothers in the army.
The sound of horse hooves left dust in the sky.
Zheng Chengzhong squinted his eyes and stood motionless, letting the yellow sand and dust cover his body and half of the loess to bury the battle bones. This city was also a good place to bury the bones. It was better than the wilderness. At least, it was lively.
The remaining Qin infantry is now under the command of Zheng Chengzhong. They will fight until the blood is shed. This group of Qin infantry is worried. They have only one idea, and that is to let the Chu people see what the Qin army is.
Death warrior!
——.
To the west of Yongqiu City, five miles away.
The forty-eight-year-old Liu Bang, the commander of the Central Army of Liu Bang's Army and the commander-in-chief of the Chu State's West Route Army, sat cross-legged on the edge of the carriage, took off his shoes, and looked at the billowing smoke above Yongqiu City.
"A Ying, tell me, how long will it take for the rabbit we are waiting for to appear?" Liu Bang raised his feet, kicked down a patch of weeds beside the chariot, and asked the driver in front of him.
Just wait and see.
That's right, Liu Bang led more than 2,000 people from his headquarters to wait in the west of the city, preparing to wipe out the Qin army that broke out of the city. The war in the city is now under the command of Xiang Yu. Liu Bang has been unsuccessful in many battles and has been forced to stand aside, and he is unwilling to do so.
All the credit was taken by that boy Xiang Yu, so he prepared to become a hunter.
"Pei Gong, Ah Shen reported not long ago that he has broken into the city with the Chu army. I'm afraid Li You won't be able to get out. Why don't we go forward to meet him and maybe get a few more heads?" Xia Houying answered eagerly.
, Cao Shen is his good brother, and at this moment he has led the main force of Liu Bang's army of tens of thousands of horses into the city.
Seeing his brother making great achievements while he was exposed to the sun and sweating outside the city, not to mention Xia Houying, even the soldiers of Liu Bangjun next to him were not angry. If Shouzhu's plan was not Liu Bang's idea, Xia Houying would probably be angry now.
Others have already raised doubts.
"Haha, Ah Ying, you have underestimated the Qin dogs in the city. Our army has not been able to retreat for several days. It is not because of the incompetence of the soldiers, but because of the Qin dogs barking. I guess this fat rabbit is coming soon!" Liu Bang laughed loudly, with a look in his eyes.
However, a cold feeling passed through him. In this battle at Yongqiu, Lao Liu was not fighting well. After working hard for a long time, he lost tens of thousands of men and horses, but he was still close to being able to win.
Xiang Liang would not have sent Xiang Yu to pick ready-made peaches if the group of idiots who followed him hadn't made a noise, saying that the losses were too great and that they would be ruined if they continued to fight.
"You little brat, let me be proud of you for a moment!" Liu Bang spat out grass foam and thought bitterly in his heart.
"Pei Gong, look, here we come, the Qin dog is out!" Xia Houying stood high and could see far away. His surprised shout made General Liu Jun, who was drowsy under the summer sun, lift up.
head.
Not far away.
A black line is getting bigger and longer. The Chu army is red and the Qin army is black. This black wave is like the tide lapping against the rocks. Even if you are shattered to pieces, you must fight to the death!
