Chapter 20 The Underdog Will Win
The sound of the ox horn, which was so powerful that it was suffocating and desolate that it made people tremble, was like a violent whirlwind, instantly blew across the camp and drove away the violent in the hearts of the Chu army soldiers. They were running, screaming, crying, laughing, and even chopping and killing the Chu army soldiers. They all calmed down, and their originally dull eyes gradually became clear.
The sound of the horn lasted for about half a quarter of an hour, and the Chu army's rebellious soldiers finally completely restored order.
It's really lucky that this bombing camp did not evolve to the final stage of large-scale firefighting. Except for a very small number of riots, most of the Chu soldiers were still in the initial stage of blind whistling and violent running. Once powerful external factors intervene and forcibly awaken their consciousness, the bombing camp that had just begun to brew will disappear.
However, although the danger of the bombing camp has been temporarily eliminated, the crisis faced by the Chu army has not been resolved.
The news of Xiang Yu's defeat to Wujiang has spread throughout the army. The shocking news brought to the Chu soldiers' mental blows can be said to be disastrous. If Xiang Zhuang cannot properly eliminate the negative impact of this news on the Chu army, then even if the army completely collapsed, even if it avoided today, the camp bombing incident will still occur in the future.
However, how easy is to eliminate the negative impact this news brought to the Chu army?
It is not difficult to do ideological work for a few people and turn grief and anger into strength. However, it is almost impossible to successfully motivate thousands of big-headed soldiers to forget their sorrow, no longer despair, and incite them to revenge, but it is almost impossible to complete. What is particularly hopeless is that these big-headed soldiers are all illiterate who don’t know a few big-headed soldiers and don’t understand any big principles at all!
However, the State of Chu had no way out, and Xiangzhuang had no way out. No matter how difficult this matter was, he could only rush forward. As the saying goes, if a person dies, he will go to the sky and never dies for thousands of years. Whether the Chu army can turn around from a defeated army with a weak morale and a depressed fighting spirit to turn into a sad soldier who is determined to revenge and is as iron-like as a war. It depends on Xiangzhuang's ability!
Taking a deep breath, Xiang Zhuang slowly raised his right hand, and the majestic and desolate sound of the cow horn suddenly stopped.
The next moment, Xiang Zhuang pressed the hilt of his sword and stepped onto the gate step by step. The entire camp suddenly became silent like death. Everyone held their breath, and only the bearskin cloak behind Xiang Zhuang was flying and rolling in the north wind, making a sound.
The gate was only about a foot high and the steps were only more than ten, but Xiangzhuang took half a cup of tea to finally finish it. It was not until she stepped out of the last step and stepped onto the gate that Xiangzhuang slowly turned around. Facing everyone, more than 5,000 Chu soldiers saw this, and they couldn't help but rush towards the gate, blocking the inside of the gate.
Xiang Zhuang waved his hand to stop the surging tide of soldiers, then drew out his sword, and shouted angrily: "The king's sword is here. Seeing the sword is like seeing the king, don't you kneel down yet!"
"Master!"
"Master!"
"Master!"
Xiang Zhuang's words "Seeing a sword is like seeing a king" immediately aroused the memories of the Chu army soldiers of Xiang Yu. The generals and veterans who were squeezed in front of him fell to the ground on one knee, calling the king three times. Although the strong men who had just joined the army did not hear it clearly, they saw that the veterans of the generals and schools in front of him knelt down one after another, they instinctively knelt on the ground.
Xiang Zhuang held up the King's Sword and continued to roar, "When you give me the King's Sword, do you know what the King said to me?"
Under the gate, five thousand Chu troops were silent. In the camp, only Xiang Zhuang's hoarse roar was stirring and echoing.
"The king told me, Xiangzhuang, you will be given the thousands of orphans in the remnants. You must take them back to Jiangdong and fight them back alive. Otherwise, even if the orphans die, they will not be able to remain in peace!"
"Master!"
"Master!"
"Master!"
A mourning sound suddenly sounded under the gate, and many Chu soldiers even started to cry.
Xiang Zhuang's heart was cold. If he wanted to inspire these soldiers, he had to inspire their desire to survive!
"Yes, the king died in battle, but he died to save you!" Xiang Zhuang's roar continued, "But, look at what you are now? What have you done just now? Om!? They either jump up and down, or they call ghosts. What do you want to do? They want to kill everyone, and want the king to die in vain?"
"Someone actually stabbed the sword at his own people! Who are you worthy of, are you worthy of the king?"
Many generals and soldiers immediately lowered their heads in shame, especially the Chu generals such as Huan Chu, Ji Bu, Zhongli Mei, Xiao Gongjiao, and Yu Ziqi. They no longer dared to look directly at Xiang Zhuang's sharp eyes.
"I promised the king that I would definitely take everyone back to Jiangdong and fight back alive! But I tell you, I will never be able to take a group of bears and soft eggs back." Xiang Zhuang said this, took a deep breath first, and then used all his strength to howl to the sky, "Tell me, are you still men!"
"yes!"
"yes!"
"yes!"
First, a few personal soldiers answered loudly, and then hundreds of generals and schoolmen began to respond. In the end, all the more than 5,000 Chu soldiers roared hysterically, all of them blushed and thick necks, and they used all their strength to roar to the sky. The huge sound waves soared into the sky, and were clearly heard from ten miles away.
Human emotions can be infected. Xiangzhuang's emotions infected the personal soldiers and generals. The emotions of the personal soldiers and generals infected all the veterans. The emotions of the veterans felt all the new soldiers. In the end, all the Chu soldiers were infected by Xiangzhuang and all roared hysterically.
"Tell me again..." Xiang Zhuang waved his fists hard and roared again, "Do you want to survive?"
"Living!"
"Living!"
"Living!"
Five thousand soldiers shouted again to respond, and the momentum was shocking!
Xiang Zhuang raised the king's sword in his hand again, and Shanhu of five thousand soldiers suddenly stopped.
"Very good!" Xiang Zhuang still held up the King's Sword and shouted loudly, "I heard that the king died in battle, but my Xiang Zhuang is still alive! Although Chu has three households, Qin will be destroyed; although Xiang Zhuang is one, the Great Chu will prosper! As long as my Xiang Zhuang is here, the sky of the Great Chu will not collapse! One day, my Xiang Zhuang will take you back to Jiangdong!"
"Catch back to Jiangdong!"
"Catch back to Jiangdong!"
"Catch back to Jiangdong!"
Five thousand soldiers responded with the third mountain cry, looking crazy!
Looking at the more than 5,000 soldiers who were furious at the gate, Xiang Zhuang finally breathed a long sigh of relief.
The devastating impact of Xiang Yu's defeat and death on the Chu army was finally eliminated. Although the Chu army soldiers could not have emerged from the shadow of Xiang Yu's death in a short period of time, at least, they would not be desperate. More importantly, Xiang Zhuang has completely aroused their desire to survive. If they continue to live, they must fight back to Jiangdong alive!
Amid the roar of five thousand soldiers like roaring like a tsunami, Wu She hurriedly climbed the gate and leaned into Xiang Zhuang's ear and said, "General, the scout just came to report that the five thousand vanguards of the Han army have advanced ten miles east of Shouchun!"
When Xiang Zhuang heard this, his heart suddenly became shaking. The Han army came so fast, faster than expected!
Immediately, a trace of ferocious murderous intent popped up at Xiang Zhuang's mouth. The Han army came just right! As the saying goes, the soldiers will win. He had just incited the anger of revenge of the five thousand Chu army. On the other hand, the Han army rushed outside Shouchun City, and it was only five thousand vanguards, not the main army. Isn't this just here to test the sword for the Chu army?
The five thousand Chu troops have a strong heart to fight. If they don’t fight at this time, when will they wait?
At that moment, Xiang Zhuang raised the king's sword again, and the roar of the five thousand Chu troops suddenly stopped like a knife cut.
Xiang Zhuang slowly turned the king's sword in a slanted direction, pointed at the east side, and roared with a ferocious look on his face: "Reward, the five thousand Han troops have already attacked outside Shouchun City. Tell me, what should I do?"
"Kill them all, no one will be left!"
"Defeat the Han army and avenge the king!"
"Try out a bloody road and fight back to Jiangdong!"
Under the gate, five thousand Chu troops roared like roars and roars again. With excitement, they all held up their spears, swords, halberds and shields in their hands. In an instant, countless weapons hit the air continuously, and the sound of clanging sounds was endless. The continuous clanging sound almost shattered everyone's eardrums!
Xiang Zhuang pressed forward with the king's sword in his hand again, and the five thousand Chu troops suddenly felt like a flood breaking the dike. They rushed out of the Chu army camp through the open gate, and then clamored across the long street, and rushed out of the Shouchun East Gate. What would happen in the future? At least at this moment, the five thousand Chu troops had completely recovered their fighting spirit!
When Xiang Zhuang strode down the gate, Gao Chu had already brought a full black horse with him.
Xiang Zhuang turned over and stepped on the black horse, took the helmet from Qin Ji and put it on his head. Finally, he took the large iron halberd weighing fifty or sixty kilograms from Jing Qian. When he was about to urge the horse to leave the city, Wu She rushed forward in two steps, grabbed the reins of the black horse tightly, and advised quickly: "General, the Han army is fierce, our army is absolutely defeated, so don't do anything with impulse!"
Xiang Zhuang smiled steadily and shouted: "This battle is either the Han army dies or the Chu army dies. There is no other way to go to this, so start!"
Wu She was so shocked when she heard this, she had to retreat two steps. Xiang Zhuang ignored Wu She and urged her feet gently. The black horse immediately raised her head and neighed, then threw away her four hooves and rushed out of the camp.
The north wind is fierce, the setting sun is like blood, and a horse is like flying, leaving the dust!
Crossing the city of Shouchun, on the endless horizon in the east, the rolling smoke and dust gradually rose. Han general Fan Kuai, with five thousand elite soldiers, crushed towards Shouchun with a scattered sea of force. ###########ps: Thank you for the generous rewards of the dragon and phoenix abc, standing tall on the top of the mountain, the thirteen little demons, the dragon 12346, died before dawn, Ye Chengtian, Nalan Buyi╅, and Chu and Han for their generous rewards.
