Terrified

Terrified
Xiang Yu led a cavalry of about a hundred people to defeat the pursuing Han Sui rebels. This battle directly cast a psychological shadow on these Han Sui rebels, describing him as a man standing when the sun was about to set.
The living King of Hell on the hillside leads a group of ghost-like cavalry that rush out of hell with blood all over their bodies. They have unimaginable power of ghosts and gods, which are simply not something that mortals can compete with.
Although Xiang Yu is indeed very powerful, it is obviously a bit exaggerated to say that he and his cavalry have the power of ghosts and gods. However, as the saying goes, everyone wins, and such rumors spread among Han Sui's army. At first, many people
Of course I don't believe it, but I can't help but more and more people are affected by this statement, and gradually Xiang Yu is really described as a terrifying existence that cannot be defeated.
For this reason, Han Sui's generals often tried to prevent the spread of this theory by killing as a warning to others. Many soldiers were beheaded in public using the so-called military law, but they still failed to stop this kind of attack on Xiang Yu.
Panic spread among the army. On the contrary, even more outrageous claims began to appear, saying that Xiang Yu could still breathe fire and was not afraid of fire. He led an army from hell to set Chencang City on fire, and it was so uncomfortable to shuttle back and forth in the fire.
.
Some people say that Xiang Yu is the god of killing reincarnated from heaven, which is a proof that troubled times are coming. He is the one who comes from heaven to punish this sinful and corrupt human world. His power cannot be resisted by mortals.
All those who stand in his way will die.
There are many similar statements to this, but they basically highlight the terrifying and invincibility of Xiang Yu and the army he led. Some describe Xiang Yu as an evil god who devours the body and soul and is full of bloodlust.
He is described as a righteous being sent by God to punish evil, and a great hero who wants to turn things around through his own force.
However, no matter which statement is made, it will obviously shake the morale of Han Sui's army, but the generals have no way. No matter how many soldiers they kill, they still can't stop this statement or some kind of fear.
The war mood spread, and the more soldiers they killed, the more these soldiers began to spread another mood, which was rebellion.
Originally, the composition of these soldiers was relatively complicated. They included Qiang people from the Xiliang area, some Han people mixed with the Qiang people, and some pure Han people. In fact, there were obvious regional differences in culture and personality among them.
Some of them voluntarily initiated and participated in this rebellion, while others were coerced by the general trend. There are some problems with the loyalty of these people.
Beigong Boyu originally forced Bian Zhang and Han Sui to join the gang and elected them as leaders in order to use their lineage and status as officials of the Han Dynasty to better absorb the power of the Han people and some Han and Qiang mixed ethnic groups in the Xiliang area.
Judging from the actual results, Han Sui indeed completed this work beyond expectations. It is precisely because of Han Sui that this rebel force has been able to develop and grow to its current level.
But now Han Sui is not here. Perhaps Han Sui can still rely on his personal prestige to suppress these soldiers so that they will not be disobedient even if they are afraid of Xiang Yu. But when Han Sui is not here, these sources
Complex soldiers who are originally rebels may have various camps or even internal rebellions.
Perhaps sensing that the situation was not good, these generals finally stopped killing their soldiers to prevent the spread of rumors, and instead tried to bring the soldiers together to carry out ideological education work. At the same time, they also stopped continuing to march. It turned out that
They waited for Han Sui's arrival. At this time, the entire main force under Han Sui had begun to have problems with the supply of food and grass. However, they could still persist for a period of time by regulating the food supply.
After the entire Chencang City went through a baptism of fire, almost half of the area turned into ruins, and the army could only temporarily station outside Chencang City.
The current situation is that the connection between Han Sui's main force and its rear is still blocked. Previously, Bian Zhang was captured by Xiang Yu, and the Xiliang rear army lost a backbone. Beigong Boyu was forced to come to the front line in person.
Command the soldiers, but he was hesitant at this time. Bian Zhang was defeated by Xiang Yu three times in a row before, not only losing Chencang City but also Dashan Pass. The loss of Dashan Pass made it easy for Beigong Boyu to lead his army to fight
Han Sui's troops rendezvoused.
Because Xiang Yu or Sun Quan can come out of Dashan Pass at any time and attack Beigong Boyu's army from the flank. Beigong Boyu is cunning and suspicious by nature and will not easily put himself in danger. Moreover, he has heard that his soldiers
Xiang Yu was described as a very terrible general, so he was even more afraid to lead his troops to Chencang to border Han Sui's main force.
What he was thinking about was waiting for Han Sui to come back with his army. In this way, even if Xiang Yu was really that brave, he would not be attacking him when he attacked. If Xiang Yu was just in name only, then Han Sui's main force could just wipe him out in one fell swoop.
You just need to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. There is no need to lead the army yourself.
If he had absolute confidence in his own strength and influence, he would not have forced Bian Zhang and Han Sui to join the group and elected them as leaders of the rebels.
Let's talk about Xiang Yu returning with a great victory. Sun Jian personally led people out of Dashan Pass to greet Xiang Yu. At this time, Sun Jian seemed to have completely gotten rid of his original knot. He was really convinced of the strength of Xiang Yu, a later generation. Come to think of it,
He himself is actually quite a figure, so why is he always fighting with a junior.
What's more, he had talked with Xiang Yu over wine before, and he had some understanding of Xiang Yu's character. He knew that Xiang Yu was actually an upright and upright man. What reason did he have to hate such a person?
Sun Jian saw that among the two hundred cavalrymen led by Xiang Yu, there were still seventy or eighty people alive at this time, so he asked Xiang Yu in detail what happened. Xiang Yu smiled slightly, and while drinking and eating meat, he explained in detail how he ordered Chen Cangcheng to be burned.
, and then told the story of how he fought with Han Sui's army in the city and beat Han Sui's army into chaos.
Sun Jian was very fascinated by what Xiang Yu said, and was completely drawn into it, as if he was also deep in the battlefield. Later, how Xiang Yu would lead his army to counterattack the pursuers, and kill the enemy with corpses everywhere and rivers of blood.
After saying it once, Xiang Yu laughed loudly and said that these Xiliang rebels were really not very good.
At first, Sun Jian just thought that Xiang Yu was indeed brave, but the more he heard about it, the more his scalp became numb. He thought to himself that Xiang Yu was so brave, he was like a god of war. Of course, he did not doubt what Xiang Yu said.
Is it a bit exaggerated? After all, being able to lead only two hundred cavalrymen alone behind the central hall of Chencang City, and still be able to go through several fights and finally come back with seventy or eighty cavalrymen, is what a few people can do. If they don't really
The opponent was frightened by the killing, so how could he give up the pursuit when he had an absolute advantage in strength?
