Chapter 243
Although the Qin army experienced a cruel bloody battle, the soldiers on the battlefield relaxed a lot. The injured brothers had been sent to the city for medical treatment, and the Huotou Army had prepared hot broth. Liu Bang was obviously an extremely good person. Under Liu Bang's organization, the wealthy merchants in the city also prepared roasted sheep and pigs to comfort the soldiers.
The days of the Chu army were much more miserable than the Qin army. Although there were doctors in the Chu army, there were too many injured soldiers. The doctors in the army could only treat the injured officer first, while the injured soldiers could only wail in the camp. The wailing of the injured soldiers cast a layer of haze in the hearts of the Chu army.
Smelling the scent of meat floating from the other side of the river, Chu Jun instantly felt that the cake in his hand was no longer fragrant.
"Brother Wei, what kind of life are we living?"
The people around Wei Bao bit the hard cake and said angrily.
Although Wei Bao's thief army did not make much effort in today's war, after both sides withdrew from the battlefield, Xiang Yu handed over the work of collecting the body and burying people to him. So on this day, he was carrying the body and digging a pit to bury people, which made him very tired.
"Okay, the battle is like this, and some food is good."
Wei Bao gnawed the bread in his hand and said to the people beside him. Wei Bao is also a self-aware person, knowing how much he has.
Wei Bao could tolerate the life of eating hard cakes, but the people under his command couldn't stand it. Fortunately, although his subordinates had no ability, they were still a little smart.
"Brother, you have been fighting hard on the battlefield for a day and just eat this. I thought we were the only ones who ate this, but I didn't expect you to be the same."
"That's right, it's fine if we didn't fight this food today. These bloody brothers actually ate this, it must be that the boy Xiangzhuang had withheld the military rations."
The bandit army under Wei Bao began to provoke the Chu army.
The atmosphere of the Chu army was extremely depressed, and there was no room for provocation. The cakes were all made a few days ago, and they had become dry and hard. Smelling the aroma of meat from the other side of the river, the Chu army suddenly felt that the big cakes in their hands were no longer fragrant.
“We want to eat meat.”
“We want to eat meat.”
“We want to eat meat.”
The Chu army shouted, holding up the pancakes in their hands that could be used as bricks.
At this time, in the Chu army's central tent, Xiang Yu was having a meal with his confidant generals. Of course, in this situation in the Chu army, their food was not much better. Even Xiang Yu's food was just a few pieces of dry noodles, and some dried pickles were added.
"King, the soldiers are making trouble and are shouting to eat meat." Xiang Zhuang looked at the chaotic shouts outside and quickly reported the report.
"Where is meat?"
"I, Xiang Yu, are here for about 100 pounds, so let them stew me."
Xiang Yu was also very angry when he looked at the noisy soldiers.
It is a difficult thing for soldiers to make trouble. Once the soldiers cannot calm their emotions, deserters will appear one after another. I am afraid that it will be troublesome to bomb the camp in the face of the battle.
"Master, in my opinion, it is better to slaughter the horses among the generals. Let's stew some broth for the brothers." Ji Bu thought for a while and said.
The slow horses in the army were used to transport food and supplies. Now that the food and supplies were burned by the Qin army, these slow horses were naturally useless. Since this is the case, it is better to kill the slow horses to calm the soldiers' emotions.
"Old Ji has a good idea. Anyway, we can't use these slow horses, so we can do this instead." Long Qi rarely agreed with Ji Bu's idea. This is not how good his relationship with Ji Bu is, mainly because he really can't swallow the dry prawns. It's just his wish to be able to stew some horse meat.
"Xiang Zhuang, kill me."
Xiang Yu ordered that he was not an indecisive person. Since the horse was useless, he would kill him.
The Chu army did not have many slow horses, and these 70,000 to 80,000 people were waiting to share the meat. After all the slow horses were slaughtered, they only distributed a small bowl of meat, but fortunately they could drink enough soup.
After drinking horse meat and meat soup, Chu Jun was finally able to fall asleep warmly. Unexpectedly, Chu Jun had just fallen asleep, and a familiar singing came from his ears.
"The heaven is in a state of great power and anger. I will kill all the people and abandon the fields. I will not go in and go back. The plain suddenly has a long road. I will carry a long sword and hold the Qin bow. My head and body are separated and my heart is not punished. Since I am brave and powerful, I will never be strong. Since I die, my spirit and spirit are resolute and I will be a ghost hero."
Qu Yuan's nine songs echoed around the Chu camp, and the Chu people's feelings for Qu Yuan were definitely not in the Qin people's feelings for Bai Qi. Bai Qi's martial arts nourished the Qin people's martial spirit, which was also the capital for the Qin people to rise up. Qu Yuan's writing also influenced the Chu people, making Chu people born with the spirit of breaking jade rather than being full.
Qu Yuan's nine songs can be said to have been heard by every Chu people. When this familiar song sounded, the sobs of soldiers were heard among Ying Zheng of the Chu army.
Chu Ge echoed in the Chu camp all night, and at the end, the singer Liu Bang found was even hoarse in his voice. The next day, the Chu army was listless and dark circles were pressing against each other. Many Chu soldiers fell asleep crying in the camp, and Chu Ge's thoughts became stronger.
They began to miss their parents, wives, and children. They began to miss the life of resting at sunrise and setting, a life of reuniting even though they were not rich.
The next day, neither side started a war, as if they were cultivating and resting, or perhaps they were brewing a more intense battle.
That night, Chu Ge resounded again around the Chu army's camp. Han Xin's knife was not covered with blood, but he really wanted Xiang Yu's life.
"The family should be neatly arranged."
A Chu army soldier left a sentence before going to bed at night, and disappeared the next day. He ran away, went home, and went home to find his parents, wife and children.
Once someone starts his head, it will be like a flood that has leaked from the gate. If there is one, there will be a second person, and if there is a second, there will be a third person.
Xiangzhuang's military law team is siegeing and blocking every day. Once the deserter is caught, it will be executed in public. But even so, people still run away every day.
"King, if this continues, our people will run away first."
Xiang Zhuang said to Xiang Yu worriedly.
"Fight, fight tomorrow." Xiang Yu said firmly.
Xiang Yu also knew the current form and could no longer wait. In just two nights and one day, his soldiers fled more than 3,000. After waiting for the battle, there was no need to fight. Xiang Yu just rolled the bed and left.
(ps: This chapter is the third update today. Some readers said that two updates are too few. In fact, it is not that I didn’t write them. I also tried the third update last month for a week. At that time, both orders dropped below 1,000, so I didn’t dare to update three times. This book has been around 1,000 since it was released. I have been ordering more, and if I can’t add them, the average subscription will drop below 1,000. If a book does not have a thousand, it will be difficult to recommend it. In order to maintain a thousand average, it can only be two updates. Now, both subscriptions are still in a safe area, so I will update three times today. Let’s read it first in the third update one week. If the average subscription can grow and always be safe, then the third update will be in the future. If it is almost below 1,000, I will resume two updates. I’ll still be able to read pirated versions and those who read on other websites. If you read the original version, you probably have two thousand.)
