Of the six ice walls laid out by Li Yuan, the Chu army's vanguard only passed four before having to stop moving forward.

In front of the Chu people, the Qin army's defense line had been compressed to Qishan, with a radius of only 500 steps between the Wei River. The Chu army's forward momentum was dampened, and Long Jie led the Chinese army to the front. It seemed that as long as they continued

With a little more effort, the people of Qin will all go down to the river to feed the fish and shrimps.

"Lu Matong, why are you stagnant?" Long Qie's body as broad as a wooden board pressed against him, making Lu Matong sweating coldly and almost suffocating his breath.

"General, the Qin people still have two earthen walls in front of them. The soldiers really can't break through them." Lu Matong lowered his head and said nothing more as if he had surrendered.

Long Qie stared at Lu Matong coldly, unable to hide his disappointment. Could this be the knight-riding general who follows the Overlord? When will a soft-footed shrimp like Lu Matong beside the Overlord be reused?

In the past few years, it is not that Xiang Yu has cultivated outstanding generals around him. Long Qie, Zhong Limei, Ji Bu, and Xiang Zhuang were all heroes of the moment, but now Lu Matong and Yang Xi are obviously no longer with them.

On a higher level. Without the new force that will be produced in the future, what else can Xiang Yu use to fight against the princes of the world?

"Brother Jiangdong, charge!"

"Da Chu, Da Chu!"

Long Qie raised his arms and roared, waving his flag, and the soldiers around him rushed out first. At this moment, Chu Feng was defeated, and the only one who could boost morale was Long Qie.

——.

The Chu army no longer even retained reserve troops and attacked with all their strength.

On Li Yuan's side, the slow-moving Thunderbolt Bamboo Gun Chariot, the high-swinging long-range stone-shooting chariot, and groups of sharp soldiers who had been reorganized and went into battle, under the command of Li Yuan and officers at all levels, guarded the area.

The last two ice walls of defense.

Depressed emotions were brewing in the hearts of every Qin army soldier. After the Chu people broke through the ice wall one after another, the soldiers' eyes would flash with unwillingness to be humiliated.

"This is a battle of revenge, a battle of life and death -!" Every soldier of the Qin army understood that if they don't win, they will die. There is no other choice, even surrender.

Li Yuan is waiting.

Waiting for the moment when the pent-up Qin soldiers really exploded, waiting for the moment when the Chu people were careless and exhausted, and when Long Qie's Chinese army rushed up, a smile finally appeared in Li Yuan's dark and tired eyes.

.

Long Qi, does he think he is Xiang Yu?

No, he is not.

The first wave of crossbow bolts that greeted the Chu soldiers was denser than before. Now that Long Qie had exerted his strength, Li Yuan no longer held any reservations. The two thousand crossbowmen had been accumulating their strength in the previous battle and did not suffer much damage.

Casualties, even the crossbow arrows in the pot were only used up one-third.

"Porphyry, porphyry, porphyry!" the Chu soldiers rushing in front were howling miserably. When shooting at a close range, the power of the crossbow arrows was much more accurate than that of bows and arrows.

Several consecutive waves of crossbow arrows from the Qin army set back the momentum of the Chu army. However, the arrows thrown by the Chu army's archers caused almost no damage to the Qin crossbowmen who were lying behind the ice wall.

"Quick, charge forward!" Long Qie roared. At medium and long distances, the organized crossbow troops of the Qin Army have always been the force most feared by the anti-Qin princes. The only way to eliminate this technical force is

The best thing is to get close to them and rely on physical combat to annihilate them.

Long Qie's troops rushed forward one after another, regardless of life and death. Like a red torrent, they rushed towards the Qin army's defense line made of black and white. Then, they crashed straight into the ice wall. The Qin crossbowmen were on the Chu soldiers

As they got closer and closer, they began to switch defenses with the infantry. For the Chu people who believed in bravery, how could an earthen wall built overnight stop the Chu soldiers? Even a hard collision could kill the Qin people.

Several holes were made in the simple earth wall defense line.

"Peng!"

A bearded Chu soldier yelled strangely and hit the ice wall with his shield. The solid wooden shield and the slippery ice wall made a clear tearing sound. Then, the wooden shield was stuck in the ice slag and was pulled out.

If you don't come out, you can't move, but the ice wall doesn't even shake.

The Chu people underestimated the strength of this ice wall, and the bearded Chu soldiers shouted in despair. The soldiers behind were rushing forward, but the front was already the end of the wall, and they were squeezed in the middle for only a moment. This fierce Chu soldier

His face turned red and his eyes widened. As he exhaled his last breath of vitality, the Chu soldier's head dropped and he was squeezed to death between the ice walls. One Chu soldier after another was squeezed.

Death, their bodies were quickly trampled underfoot and became a stepping stone on the way forward.

At several doorways of the ice wall, the fighting was even more intense.

After seeing that the ice wall was difficult to knock down, the Chu army involuntarily began to rush towards the gap. On the Qin army's side, chariots equipped with dense bamboo spear formations piled up in front, blocking the small gap.

Ice gate.

There are many bamboo guns.

A Chu soldier was stabbed in the abdomen by a protruding bamboo spear. He originally tried to cut the bamboo spear in half, but the Qin soldier in the car who was holding the gun shrank quickly, and then stabbed forward quickly, causing him to be stabbed.

Wear them together——.

The Chu army left four thousand casualties in front of the seventh ice wall. When the eighth ice wall appeared in front of the Chu soldiers, not only the Chu army soldiers, but also the general Long Qie let out a long sigh.

.

The Chu army stagnated. This time, even if Long Qie forced his orders, he could not make the Chu soldiers advance much. The difference between meritorious service and death was just this one step away.

It's getting late.

The temperature dropped rapidly in early winter. For the Chu soldiers who had been killing all day long, this day was like a nightmare. Their companions died in front of them, and the groans of the wounded soldiers sounded even more depressing.

"Anyone who can break through the enemy's treacherous wall will be rewarded heavily!" Long Qie shouted loudly.

"Those who offer tricks to defeat the enemy will be rewarded with heavy rewards!" Shouts kept coming and going. The Chu army no longer put their hope of defeating the enemy in a strong attack. Instead, they hoped to use tricks to win a victory.

"Fire, light it up quickly!" After suffering huge casualties, some Chu soldiers finally began to think of ways to deal with the ice wall and bamboo spears. Fire can melt everything, and frozen earth walls will disintegrate under high temperatures, while bamboo spears

It can't withstand the burning of fire.

"Quickly, go back to the camp to find something to ignite the fire!" Long Qie's eyes lit up, but then dimmed again. This time he went into battle, he was being plotted at every turn, and he never thought that he would have to set fire to overcome the enemy's obstacles.

"General, fire, fire!"

As soon as Long Qi finished speaking, he heard several shouts, and then more Chu soldiers shouted in panic. They all turned their heads and looked at the starting point - Chu Camp.

There, the fire was raging and smoke was rising into the sky.
