Chapter 2 Xiang Yu kills
Xiang Yu rode his horse and followed the Jiangdong children, followed closely behind him like shadows. Thousands of cavalry swept through the craze, the sound of horse hooves was like thunder and lightning, shattering all obstacles, and heading towards Yongqiu, a small city that was swaying in the wind and rain.
The earth trembled, the mountains collapsed, and the heroes of Jiangdong sacrificed their lives for justice. From Kuaiji to cross the river north, Xiang Yu followed his uncle Xiang Liang to fight and defeated the troops of various counties of Qin. He mostly earned the reputation of the bravery of the Chu army. This made Xiang Yu, who was always proud, even more arrogant.
"The Qin people are just a group of grass dogs; Song Yi's old man dared to underestimate a certain family." Xiang Yu led the army to help, and received the emergency from Liu Bang, the commander of the Western Expedition Army.
The Chu army dispatched the most elite cavalry units and tens of thousands of powerful soldiers. This confrontation further aggravated the inequality on the battlefield.
Li You had too few troops.
After defeating Chen Sheng, Zhang Han of the Shaofu transferred the main force of Li Yousanchuan soldiers in the name of attacking Xiang Liang, and the combat effectiveness of the county soldiers left behind decreased sharply. If Li Yuan's team had not returned too late as the task of returning to Dingtao, Zhang Han would have been transferred to Dingtao by Zhang Han. In Dingtao, Zhang Han's opponent was Xiang Liang. After Chen Sheng's death, Xiang Liang had become the new leader of various anti-Qin troops in Guandong.
The weeds fall.
The Chu army was in such a state of power.
"Major General Xiang is really powerful!" Liu Bang and other princes who were bleeding from the head under Yongqiu City all looked shocked and suspicious when they saw the Chu army's appearance.
Xiang Yu's reputation has gradually spread with the successive victory of the Chu army. He also mentioned his brave and good combat achievements, as well as his untouchable temper. Chu people are barbaric and aggressive. It is common to draw the sword to face each other in a word. If you fight alone, who is Xiang Yu's opponent.
With Xiang Liang pressing, Xiang Yu might not do anything randomly. Now that Xiang Liang is not here, how could Liu Bang and others be able to suppress Xiang Yu? What's more, Liu Bang still couldn't capture Xiang Yu for a long time. More than a dozen coalition forces, nearly 50,000 soldiers confronted the Qin army of less than 3,000, and he could not win a small city for several days. This made Liu Bang very embarrassed. However, this later generations of Emperor Gaozu of Han's research on the theory of black and black has reached its peak.
It doesn't matter if you can't defeat Yongqiu. Please ask Xiang Yu, who is more capable, to fight. As for being ridiculed, what does it matter? I, Liu, are based on the princes, relying on a network of relationships that are good at both sides, not bravery.
"kill!"
The black-cone horse was standing upside down, Xiang Yu roared, pointed the halberd in his hand directly to the city, facing him, and facing the Chu army was the flag behind Li Yuan.
The Chu soldiers abandoned their horses and ran towards the city walls, and the arrows and crossbows all over the sky fell like locusts. This time, the Chu army siege did not hesitate at all. They climbed up to the top of the city at the risk of being hit by the hot oil of the rolling stones.
"Hey!" On the city, the Qin soldiers shouted one after another, and stones and wood were transported up and then quickly smashed down.
Li You had enough experience to defend the city. In the Battle of Xingyang, Wu Guang's troops were besieged for several months, but they still could not allow the Li Youqiu army to give up the city. Although Yongqiu's city walls were not as good as the strong city Xingyang, Li You was still confident to resist the first wave of offensive of the Chu army.
Li You regarded Xiang Yu as Wu Guang.
No wonder he is. No matter how famous Xiang Yu is, he has not yet raised the banner of rebellion. Wu Guang is coming loudly.
The Chu army rushed forward.
The battlefield rules that Xiang Yu believed in were to use the strong to fight against the strong, to detour, and to avoid the real and to the virtual. Facing Li You who defeated Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, Xiang Yu was in awe of fighting spirit.
"Bor!"
A burly Chu soldier was shot into the eye socket by a powerful arrow. The Chu soldier pulled out a triangular arrow and continued to climb along the gap in the city wall with blood flowing.
On the city, a garrison leader of the Qin army saw that there was a bargain to take advantage, so he poked out half of his body from the battlement and stabbed a spear at the Chu soldiers. The sharp spear tip cut through the thin armor and embedded it in his hot chest.
"Ah!" As the screams, Chu Zuo reached out to hold the copper spear, pulled it hard, and immediately pulled the unstable Qin Junmen Station away from the city wall.
The two of them fell to the city under the action of inertia. Before the fallen Qin army camp leader could wake up, hedgehog was stabbed by several spears.
Use life to repay life, and use blood to repay blood.
In front of the Chu people's desperate rush, the Qin army's defense line was shaking.
The Qin army's army began to loosen, and the losses on the front line became increasingly greater. Most of the subsequent soldiers who made up the Jin Dynasty were new soldiers. After seeing the heavy casualties, the morale of the new soldiers began to fall. Some new soldiers standing in the front row began to look around in horror, and the timid ones began to retreat.
Li You on the city tower also saw the disadvantage. He was still using the flag to mobilize the follow-up troops in the city, trying to control the increasingly unfavorable decline.
But his efforts were futile. The Qin army guarding the city was just a second-rate county and state soldiers. Their fighting will not be compared with the Qin field elites guarding the Great Wall. Faced with a smooth victory, they could be very morale and move forward, but in the face of a stalemate and arduous battle, their gap began to emerge.
At first there were one and two auxiliary soldiers behind the formation, and then a single soldier on the edge of the front formation. More and more Qin soldiers retreated, and fewer and fewer Qin soldiers who continued to hold on the city.
Li Yuan stabbed out a spear and took down a Chu Zhu who was climbing up for fear of his life. He took advantage of the gap and exhaled his burning blood.
The section he guarded was located at the front of the city gate and was under the greatest pressure. If it weren't for his help from the left and right, the Chu army would have broken through several times.
"Mr. Marquis, on the left and on the right, the thief is coming up." Behind him, Luo Jia's scream came.
Li Yuan turned his head and saw that the Qin army in black armor could hardly be seen on the left and right wings, and bright red appeared one after another.
The two wings of Qin army have collapsed, and it is useless to defend again.
Li Yuan sighed in despair. In the face of absolute superior forces, the Qin army's resistance was just a flash in the pan. Li You could no longer gather much reinforcements, otherwise he would not have allowed the city wall to be captured by the Chu army.
In the midst of the encirclement, if the city is broken, the entire army will be destroyed.
The Qin army was defeated.
Li Yuan led his troops to fight and retreat, and he also had to pay attention to strategies when he escaped. Alternate retreat was the best way. On the contrary, giving up all his back to the enemy is the stupidest way.
“Uh…”
A shrill scream rang behind him, almost behind his head. Li Yuan pulled over the panting Luo Jia and turned around to meet the approaching Chu Zu.
The copper spear stabbed out quickly. With the violent sound of weapons, Li Yuan's tiger's mouth was shaken by a huge force, and his chest felt even more stuffy. With such a powerful force, the enemy soldiers behind him were not a easy-to-waste role.
