Chapter 182 The Battle of Hulao Pass (7)

Lucky.

It will always come to those who are prepared, and Li Yuan firmly believes in this.

When he saw Wang Shang and Zhang Ping's team coming from the back mountain, Li Yuan knew that he was still the unshakable winner in this battle with Xiang Yu.

It is not because of God's favor, but because of a little more foresight than the other party.

The Qin army was full of morale because of the arrival of reinforcements. The roaring Qin soldiers began to force their opponents with an unparalleled aura.

At the end of the powerful crossbow, the power cannot penetrate Lu silk.

The tense Chu army finally collapsed. Not only ordinary soldiers, but also some generals felt deeply desperate. The Qin army in front of them, these Qin soldiers, like Xiaoqiang who could never be killed, killed one and pounced on them again. This kind of life-and-death tactic was felt by the Chu army that once had brilliant achievements. Now, they found in despair that the unyielding old Qin people were back.

"Overlord, where is it?" Chu general Zhou Lan pulled over a broken Xiang Yu's personal soldier and shouted.

"It's on the high slope of the top of the mountain." Before the personal soldiers could answer completely, Zhou Lan led a group of soldiers toward the top of the mountain like a fleeing.

Of course, Zhou Lan was not trying to make another contribution to the meeting with Xiang Yu. He just felt that he could not fight anymore. Since he could not fight again, it would be better to retreat early.

——.

Very strange.

At the moment when the two armies of Qin and Chu killed each other, Xiang Yu and Li Yuan, the two main generals, met but did not fight. They spoke in just a few words to each other and told them all about the hardships on the road to hegemony.

Li Yuankong was named a second-generation rich man, but in fact he was a grassroots person who could not be more grass. As for Xiang Yu, although Xiang Liang and Xiang were supported behind him, he was almost defeated by Xiong Xin and Song Yi, a conspirator like Xiong Xin and Song Yi.

"Li Yuan. If you dare to surrender, Xiang Mou would like to grant your title to the princes. How about?" Xiang Yu's double pupils showed a complex look of appreciation. The young man opposite was inconspicuous at first sight. He was just an ordinary general of the Qin army. However, after a real battle, he found that this person was incredible and had no trace to be found.

surrender--.

This overlord Xiang Yu really has a heart of pity for heroes. He is cruel to ordinary people and benevolent and righteous to those he regards. Such a Xiang Yu acts like this and is speechless. No wonder Lao Liu was defeated by Xiang Yu again and again in history, and he can survive and resurrect.

"If you want to fight, you can fight, why should you say too much?" Li Yuan sneered, but his feet did not move. He would rather be the head of a chicken than the queen of a cow. He finally struggled for the next foundation and had a group of brothers who were with him. Naturally, Li Yuan could not be interested in working for Xiang Yu, let alone Xiang Yu was a short-lived boss.

Mountains, forests, rocks.

All are natural battlefields.

The steep rocks in the mountains are more rugged and steep than ordinary flat grounds. For Li Yuan, who has practiced fighting under special conditions, flexibility and adaptability are the places where he can have advantages compared to Xiang Yu, so of course he must make good use of it.

"Do you really think that you can escape under a certain sword? Isn't it enough for the princes?" Xiang Yu was so embarrassed and shouted angrily. In Xiang Yu's heart, no one of the seventeen princes was not a hero. The title of Li Yuan as a descendant was already his greatest reward.

"The princes, the overlord is really generous. But what Li wants is, the overlord cannot give it. Speaking of which, in the battle of Huzhu today, Qin and Chu were both injured, and only one person was cheaper." Li Yuan smiled indifferently and said lightly.

For Li Yuan, Xiang Yu's appreciation was just a feather on the top of Mount Tai. Neither existence nor non-existence would affect other things. Because of Xiang Yu's will, the current Qin and Chu armies have become deeply resentful and cannot be untied.

"Who?" Xiang Yu's eyes narrowed and he asked.

Although Li Yuan is an opponent, he is a person who is appreciated by Xiang Yu. Even if Xiang Yu doesn't accept what such a person says, he will keep it in his heart.

"Didn't the King of Han send you a letter? He would raise his troops out of Wu Pass and attack our army's retreat from Nanyang County. At this time, I think he had already sharpened his sword in Nanyang. Did the Overlord find any news?" Li Yuan replied with a sarcastic smile.

He was too lazy to persuade Xiang Yu about such a silly mind. He was fooled and helped people count money. He was either heroes or fools. Xiang Yu was just such a person.

"You--!" Xiang Yu's anger hit his chest and was questioned by a junior. For him, who is accustomed to high positions, he has not heard such a rebellious remark for a long time.

The smooth days of this period made his temper grow bigger and bigger, and he gradually began to lose his advice from his subordinates. What made him even more embarrassed was that after thinking carefully, this battle in Hulao Pass would really be a wedding dress for Liu Bang. According to Liu Bang's thick and dark style, once he was allowed to leave Hanzhong, it would be extremely difficult for Xiang Yu to drive him back again.

Xiang Yu, who was respected as a king by all the princes, was just a moment of being so popular that he was obsessed with his eyes and mind. When he gradually understood what Li Yuan said, his fighting spirit was also gradually fading away.

If the battle continues, what is the effect? ​​If Li Yuan can be killed, let alone, even if the Qin army is defeated, the Chu army will be greatly damaged. If Liu Bang really makes a comeback, what effect can a group of exhausted Chu soldiers and several wounded generals play?

Top of the mountain.

The Qin army's central army flag is still flying, and its existence inspires one Qin army soldier after another to move forward bravely. Its existence gives them confidence and strength, not for anything else, because it represents Li Yuan, the new king of Qin, who is still fighting and has not given up.

In this era of cold weapons, the role of the chief general is more in strategy and morale-enhancing. After all, there are not many people who are trapped in the battle like Xiang Yu, even Xiang Yu has basically stopped going to the front line after becoming the leader of the princes. This decisive battle with Li Yuan was also Xiang Yu's first battle since the Julu War.

"Marquis Li——!" A cry came, and Wang Shang led a team of soldiers to run and sweat profusely. Finally, he saw that Li Yuan was still alive, and his face turned pale in fright.

For him who started from the slightest and whose name was only Wang Laoliu, Li Yuan was the heaven and everything. Without Li Yuan's support, he, a small pawn in the Qin army, could he become a senior general who ruled an army like today, and could make his powerful opponent fail repeatedly.

"This is your subordinate, good, very good. I hope one day, we can fight the previous battle without any ties." Xiang Yu "chuckled" and went back to the scabbard, nodded at Li Yuan, and turned around and went downstairs.

Along the way.

Although the Qin generals were standing in front, Xiang Yu seemed to pass by them as if he didn't realize it. Facing this man who was no one else and extremely brave, no one had the courage to come forward to stop him. For ordinary Qin generals and soldiers, such a plague god only hoped to get along better and better.

"Old King, I'll give you another word. Pengcheng is in danger, so come back quickly!" Li Yuan stared at Xiang Yu's somewhat lonely back, and suddenly a burst of sadness surged into his heart.

Xiang Yu is a proud and lonely man.

Have personality and shortcomings.

But it is true, not hypocritical, not artificial. If you appreciate someone, you will appreciate someone. If you hate someone, you will hate someone. Such a hero died too early, leaving only a song about Chu Song in Gaixia that makes people feel sad.

"Thank you!" Xiang Yu didn't look back, but waved to Zhou Lan, Ji Bu and other generals who were still fighting, signaling the Chu army to leave contact and retreat!

After Wang Shang arrived, Zhang Ping, who had solved Ji Xin's army, then joined the battle group. The situation of the Chu army became increasingly unfavorable. Although there were Yu Ziqi, Ding Gong's two troops, as well as some miscellaneous powers of the small princes, these soldiers who were scared by the cruel battle situation could be used, so that they could attack the passes that were dead. I am afraid that no general would accept the order.

The Chu army retreated like a tide.

This fierce battle caused the Chu army to lose nearly 10,000 elite soldiers. This is not the disappearance or death of a large number of generals like Ji Xin. The key is that the Chu army under Ji Bu has always been the main force in charge. Their losses also made Xiang Yu lose the ability to continue attacking in a short period of time.

As the side guarding the pass, the Qin army undoubtedly took advantage of this powerful attack with huge force disparity. In the combined attack, the Qin army suffered more than 2,700 casualties, of which: in the battle to ambush Ji Xin, Wang Shang and Zhang Ping cooperated tacitly and wiped out Ji Xin's interspersed troops at less than fifty people; in the battle to pass, the biggest casualties of the Chu army did not come from the last moment of the attack, but the previous hopeless and meaningless battle to fill the pass.

Looking up, Li Yuan couldn't help but think about the broken Qin army flag that was still floating on the top of Hulao Pass.

Finally passed another level!

This process of breaking through the dangers made Li Yuan feel pain and happiness again and again.

This fierce battle in Hulao Pass lasted for ten days since early July. Although it was not long, in terms of the intensity of the war, it was more cruel than any war that Li Yuan had experienced before.

battlefield.

Changes rapidly.

The plan arranged in advance seems to be a little disconnected from reality.

Han Xin's northern expedition troops were unknown on the north bank of the Great River. Faced with the encirclement of Zhonglimei, Zhang Er, Zhao Xie and other princes, he wondered whether he could fight a bloody path and create a world for the Qin army in Hebei.

As for the plan to instigate Hou Yingbu of Jiujiang, I don’t know if Zhao Ping’s lobbying was successful. However, Yingbu is also a hero. Li Yuan has no idea what he would think and do. The last sentence he said to Xiang Yu was actually just a premonition in his heart.

Yingbu, he should not give up this rare opportunity.
