Once the sun sets, the temperature will go straight to over 30 degrees below zero. However, the wind is colder than ice and snow. Under the somatosensory effect, even at the hottest noon, as long as the wind speed reaches level 6 (10-13 meters/second), the naked skin will be as cold as it is placed at 38 degrees below zero. Once the sun sets, the north wind becomes stronger and stronger, and the wind speed becomes faster and faster.

Just the two-level light breeze before sunset. The Qin soldiers without headwear and handwear had cold cheeks and fingers to minus forty-six degrees. The Qin soldiers lined up at the northernmost end would be frostbite as long as they showed their faces. The unwrapped fingers were almost completely stiff and would break at any time. When the wind speed gradually increased, the two-section light breeze turned into four-section gentle breezes. The exposed skin instantly cooled to more than minus fifty degrees. The skin was frozen and cracked. The frozen fingers would break with a little force, and the copper spear covered with blood clots fell to the foot.

Unfortunately, the Qin army array was not a transverse array in the north and south, but a vertical array in the east and west. The soldiers with bare skin at the northernmost end had their cheeks cracked and their fingers broke. Most of the soldiers south of the northernmost end did not feel the low temperature of minus 50 degrees or 60 degrees due to the obstruction of their comrades. They just felt that the sky was getting colder and colder and the wind was getting colder. They were more concerned about the enemy array where the trapped beasts were fighting against each other.

At this time, all the coalition brigades affiliated with Youque were put into battle and used spears that could not kill the enemy to stabilize the array that was about to collapse. The artillery fired and the chamber exploded. The remaining hundreds of thunder bombs and more fired medicine bags were taken to the battlefield by the artillery guards. After igniting the fire, they threw the thunder bombs or medicine bags at the Qin army. Some artillery guards rushed into the Qin army array with dozens of medicine bags on their backs and ignited them in a shout.

All this is for darkness. The coalition generals struggled to support the battle to drag the battle into the night. However, this was not for victory. Any rational generals knew that the coalition had failed. The thin array that barely maintained was only a few lines and dozens of steps. With the support of Youque, the sacrifice of the artillery soldiers was not defeated by the Qin people. Most of the soldiers had been killed in battle, and the few remaining could not reverse the battle.

Zhuang Wudi, who should have done something, felt relieved. The Sima of the army rushed to the shogunate to discuss countermeasures again. At this moment, the shout of "King Jing has passed away" came from behind the Qin army array. With the last light, the huge phoenix flag spread across the north wind. Several of the heads under the banner were lifted high by the chief spear. The blood on the neck was frozen before it condensed, showing a strange bright red.

"Da Ao?!",

"It's King of Chu..."

The soldiers of the Allied Army in the snow dust could not see the face of their heads, but could see the three phoenix flags clearly. The flag was there, the flag was dead, and the people were dead, and the three phoenix flags fell into the hands of the Qin people. The thin array was shaken continuously, and the soldiers of the Chu army looked at the phoenix flag and shouted desperately, and rushed towards the Qin army. The Qi army, Wei army, Yue army, and Lu army, who knew that the defeat had been decided, retreated quickly, and only the Zhao army led by Sima Mao rushed towards the Qin army like the Chu army with bone-breaking hatred.

The explosion sounded again, accompanied by the explosion was a shrill military newspaper. Sima, the divisions of the shogunate who were discussing how to withdraw the troops, heard the scream of "the army formation was broken". Everyone's expressions changed drastically, and they struggled to hold on until now, just to wait for the night to fall. The entire army might retreat at night, but unexpectedly, the army collapsed before the night was approaching.

"Report—!" The cavalry who was the first to run to the shogunate shouted in a crying voice: "The Qin people seized the banner of Da Ao, saying that Da Ao has passed away and our army is defeated!"

"Black of the Great Ao?" Zhuang Wudi stood up excitedly, and he rushed out of the black curtain, and the rest of Sima followed him out of the tent.

Taking advantage of the last few rays of light between the sky and the earth, Zhuang Wudi saw that some people fought and some retreated hundreds of steps away. In the snow dust, Qin cavalry crossed the broken line and chased the fleeing soldiers. The phoenix flag was held by the Qin cavalry and floated back and forth behind the front line. When he saw the flag, Zhuang Wudi almost knelt down. The other Sima's eyes were cracked, some people trembled, and more people cried. Only one soldier beside Peng Zong shouted with tears: "Don't believe! I don't believe!"

"Report——!" The guard knight with frosty and snow finally ran back to his own shogunate from the Qin army's shogunate. He rushed to the vicinity before reporting in a voice: "Da Ao was caught in an arrow and had already arrived at the Daying Medical Camp."

"Ah..." The Simas said a long sentence. The soldiers who didn't believe Xiong Jing had died just now ran to the horse and grabbed the knight and asked anxiously: "Brother Wang was caught in an arrow?! Brother Wang..."

"It's a fierce..." The knight was surprised. He heard the voice, and no one expected that Xiong Han, who was obviously in Xinying, would appear in the army again.

"Brother Wang is shot, can Brother Wang be? " Xiong Han is anxious. The older he is, the more things he knows. The teenager's self and pride made him extremely ashamed of the ascension farce that happened in his childhood. He urgently hoped to use the blood of the enemy and even his own blood to wash away this humiliation. This battle he realized his long-standing ideal, but he did not expect it would be a defeat.

Xiong Han was anxious, and Sima Zhuang Wudi and others were also anxious. The knight answered helplessly: "My doctor Yin Yan, it's not clear."

Over the past twelve years, Xiong Jing has been in battle repeatedly and has never been seriously injured. With the protection of the guards and the strength of the giant armor, except for that fracture, the rest were all minor injuries. The injury to the arrow was still serious, Zhuang Wudi instantly thought of Jing crossbow. Ou Chou once said that the only thing that could hurt Da Ao in the Qin army was Jing crossbow and the catapult. The arrow was definitely a crossbow. Thinking that the Jing crossbow, which was nearly ten feet long, passed through Xiong Jing's body, he shook it a few times and could no longer hold on to fall.

As night fell, the main hall of Daliang royal city was clear. During the days when the snow stopped, Zhao Qian, who was staying in the Chu army camp, quickly moved back to Daliang after the Qin army withdrew. The north city was burned, so he could only live in the south city temporarily. The decisive battle that determined the fate of Wei and Zhao began at noon, and the feast in the main hall also began at noon.

Although Zhao Qian was at the banquet, he was sad that his mother's death was gone. He did not eat or drink until he heard the Wei soldiers on the city wall report that the Qin army was defeated by the coalition forces as soon as the war began. Then he started to enjoy the banquet. Later, when the Chu cavalry broke through the formation, the Qin army was so happy that they couldn't help drinking. The war reports kept coming, and the situation suddenly reversed at the last hour. He was shocked. Wei Zengze looked unmoved. Not only did he drink, but he also summoned actors to promote their skills and play music, singing and dancing.

The war report was never heard half an hour before the night fell. Wei Xi asked Wei Xi, who said that the battle had not stopped and would not be decided. Such an answer made Zhao Qian feel at ease, but Wei Zeng laughed loudly, and he said loudly: "I am sorry that my ancestor Wu Hou did not listen to Gongshuzhu's words and did not kill Wei Yang. Wu Hou is a gentleman's heart and does not know the abdomen of a villain. He only knows that Wei Yang has no talent and does not know that Wei Yang has no virtue. Otherwise, how could Wei Ang be deceived?"

The Wei Kingdom was once a great power that dominated the world, and compared with the second-rate power of Zhao Kingdom, which had never dominated the Central Plains from beginning to end, it had a hegemonic style. The country may be about to fall, but when Wei Zeng remembered the past more than a hundred years ago, he spoke loudly, and his kingly aura was imposing.

"That's right." Zhao Qian, the King of Zhao, didn't know how to answer. Zhao Han, the king of Pingyuan of Xinxiangbang, smiled and said, "If the Wei State did not move to Daliang, how could the Qin people get the land in Hexi? Guandong was always inferior to Qin, and the various countries were conquering each other, so that the Qin people could take advantage of the opportunity. The Han people bribed Qin again, and Qin gained profits but could not stop, so they had the heart to merge the world and swallowed the ambitions of the six countries."

"There is Hangu in Qin, and all the nations have no." Wei Prime Minister and Xia Cai County Duke Cai Wen, who talked about the reason why the Qin people became big, had his own opinions. "In the past, our Chu army attacked Lantian. If Han and Wei had not been bullied by the Qin people at that time, how could the Qin people have today?"

"Chu and Qin have been married for a long time. If the State of Chu had not been close to Qin, the Qin people would not have been like today." Wei Zeng drank a lot of wine, but he didn't see Wei Jianyou's stopping expression, and he said to himself.

"The State of Chu was close to Qin, and the Qin people went to the city before building it, not behind it." Cai Wendao. "At that time, everyone in the world was already afraid of Qin, so what could the State of Chu?"

"The words of the prime minister are reasonable." Wei Jian said with a smile. It is not necessary to say that he was defeated in this battle. If he wins, Chu will be the overlord of the world and cannot be offended. "Although King Huai has great ambitions, he believed in Qin very deeply and finally died in Qin. Only Da Ao knew that the Qin people had the heart of tigers and wolves, and the ambitions of the world were all the same, and that they would not stop attacking Qin. If all the countries exist, this was Da Ao's achievements."

"Oh!" Cai Wen couldn't help sighing when he heard this. As a husband's clan, he originally did not support Xiong Jing's plan to get into evil with Qin, but Xiong Jing survived several disasters and the relationship between Chu and Qin could not return, so he could only follow the trend of attacking Qin. There is nothing to say if he wins the decisive battle. If he loses the decisive battle, he cannot say that he hates Xiong Jing, at least he will blame Xiong Jing.

If he hadn't been showing off his courage and courage again and again, and did not make friends with the Qin people, how could the Chu State die early? The Qin State had been saying that the world had been annexed decades ago, but so what? The Chu State moved east for decades, and still had sacrifices. The world is so big, how could the Qin people swallow it and die if it is dead? They had good friends with Qin, smelting iron, casting cannons, and spear formations could be carried out indifferently. In the future, Qin State really wanted to destroy Chu and fight again, so why should they rush to the forefront from the beginning...

Cai Wen sighed, because of complaining. After complaining, he felt that it was unfair to think like this. King Zhao Zheng of Qin was young and energetic, and he was also the king of bravery. He could not not want to unify the world. However, the affairs of Chu State seemed feasible, but in fact it was not feasible. Even if the Chu army had giant armor, artillery, and spears at that time, the county divisions in the country would not follow the orders of the Grand Sima Mansion.

No one can do better than Da Ao. Cai Wen was in a state of mind, and when he thought of this, he sighed heavily. Cai Wen sighed twice, and everyone was confused and it was inconvenient to speak. There was only a faint sound of music in his bedroom. At this time, someone outside the bedroom hurriedly climbed the steps, and as soon as he pushed the cold outside the hall, he rushed in, "Report to the king, the coalition forces are defeated!"

The person who came was covered in ice, and in one sentence it made everyone in the hall feel like they fell into an ice cave. Wei Zeng, who had a fight between teeth, had not restrained his trembling. The sound of war horses came from the steps, and the sound came from the steps: "I am ordered by the Sima of the Chu army to see the king..."

"Report to the king, the coalition forces are defeated!" A Chu army officer was still wearing huge armor and his head was covered with his head, revealing only his eager eyes. "The army Sima ordered his ministers to advise the king: Those who want to arrive in Xinying must leave the city at night within an hour, which is not as late as possible."

"Ah?!" Wei Zeng, who had already stood up, collapsed again. He did not expect to be defeated so seriously. He did not answer, and the military officer said again: "The people who avoid evading the evading in all countries are in Chu at this time. If the Qin people enter Chu directly, they will be captured by the Qin people. Therefore, the army said that the Wei State must defend Daliang until spring. Only in this way can the evading people leave Chu and Xinying."

"How about the Chu army? What about the Chu king?" Wei Jianyou finally asked. This was him and everyone was most concerned about.

"The coalition may have retreated into the camp, and Da Ao has not returned, and I don't know." The military officer was the one who drove away from the shogunate before the sun set. When he left, the Qin cavalry had already covered the battlefield. "This is the only thing I have said. Da Ao once said that Qin would join the world, and he would capture concubines and princesses from all countries, kill noble people from all countries, and move wealthy people from all countries, and the king must not be lucky."

Before, he was playing music and laughing, but for a moment he faced life and death. Wei Zeng, the King of Wei who was helped up, could not suppress his trembling. The heroic aura just now disappeared, and he didn't know how to choose at such a critical moment.

While Daliang was singing, dancing and drinking, Shouying Grand Sima Mansion could always receive information on the battlefield. More than half an hour before the sun set, the north wind became stronger and stronger. The snow dust blowing along the Feixun blocked the view, and the contact was interrupted. There were only two left in the five military formations of the Qin army, and the losses were heavy. However, after all, the Qin army had 500,000 people, and the losses of 300,000 people were still more than the coalition forces, and the outcome was still unknown.

With such a cautious attitude, Nao Li and others could only wait with peace of mind. Feixun interrupted and there was still pigeon news. The sand sea was less than a thousand miles away from Shouying, and the pigeon could fly to one or two hours. In the spring, with the rapid footsteps outside, the pigeon news that the two were waiting for finally arrived. What caught their eyes was Yin Qule, the communications officer of the Communications Department, who looked at him without joy, and his eyes were wandering.

Naojiu asked in a hurry: "How is the war?"

Qu Le opened his lips and spoke in a voice that did not belong to him: "The State of Chu will never perish!"

"Ah?!" Naoji exclaimed. The teacup that Li Qi was holding fell and shattered, and the room was full of the sound of broken porcelain. After a while, when Naoji frowned, Li Qi asked, "How about Da Ao?"

"Da Ao, Da Ao..." Qu Le was chilling when he saw Ge Xun, but he was so scared that he couldn't react at all. At this time, he saw Nao Ji and Li Qi crying, and he whimpered, "Da Ao is seriously injured and is about to die."

"Ah!" Hearing that Naojiu was forced to calm down when he heard that Xiong Jing died, he could no longer calm down. He ran over and grabbed Xunwen from Qu Le's hand. Qu Le cried and said, "The giant armor and iron were too cold and cracked like tiles. The Qin people killed me with a copper spear, and most of the generals of the entire army died in battle. The remaining troops retreated into the camp, and the Qin people quickly attacked the camp, and the entire army surrounded me!"

"The Qin people surrounded me, how could Da Ao go to Xinying?!" Qu Le cried bitterly, and Li Qi couldn't help but cry. He could accept defeat in the battle, but he would never accept Xiong Jing's death in the battle.

"Oh!" Nao Ji strongly cheered up and finished reading the news. The news briefly mentioned the situation of the battle and the current situation of the coalition forces, including the things Qu Le just said. Nao Ji really couldn't think of any other reason. The soldiers could not be used because of the cold, and the cannon exploded due to the cold. His heart had nowhere to vent his sorrow and grief. He hit his chest with a heavy punch. He raised his head and shouted angrily: "This is the sky that will destroy Chu!!"

Li Qi had wiped his tears. Looking at Naoji, who was extremely sad and sorrowful, he shook his head vigorously: "Don't believe! The State of Chu will never perish."
