Chapter 363 A sword ruins the plan

When the first battle started, Mei Kai knew that He Chuan Hu was outnumbered, but he was not really worried.

Since a few days ago, Mei Yi always thought of Jinling and the river... and could no longer feel at ease.

"If Xiang Yu were to conquer it himself, there would probably be no one in the world who could defeat him."

Mei Yi retracted his gaze from afar and looked towards the southwest from time to time. Following the flow of the Huai River, he first went west and then turned south to reach the Six Cities.

Shouchun can abide by the rules and take refuge in six cities as a last resort.

The sun was high in the sky, and the Chu army had been waiting like an iron plate for half a day.

The Yue people already thought that Zhou Yin was bluffing, and a small boat on the west branch of the Six Cities completely ruined their luck.

A Chu soldier got out of the boat and mounted his horse, and ran straight towards Zhou Yin under the watchful eyes of both armies. He held a wooden box in his hand and gave instructions to Zhou Yin for a long time.

Zhou Yin nodded with a smile, threw the box aside, grabbed the hair on his head with one hand, and pointed it at Mei Ao from a distance.

"This man is the most powerful subordinate of Marquis Tai? He has been killed by Lu Lingyin. Why don't you attack the city quickly and surrender?!"

After Zhou Yin finished speaking, Chu people suddenly laughed wildly.

Mei Yi couldn't see clearly even though he looked as hard as he could, his whole body was lying on the top of the city, and his fingers seemed to be dug into the city wall.

Hua Wuhai and Wu Cheng held on to Mei Ai's sleeves tightly, fearing that she would fall.

Zhou Yin sneered lightly, passed the head to the soldiers on the left and right, and rode quickly to Shouchun City.

Mei Yi recognized the head at a glance, and was unable to stand. He was helped by the two men and fell to the ground.

"It's a traditional leader... it's really a traditional leader!!" Mei Yi was completely desperate. His fingers were trembling and he pointed forward. He was dizzy and could no longer direct the battle.

I was so sad that I couldn't bear to look at it a second time, and secretly blamed myself for not being able to share Mei Yi's worries.

Wu Cheng was in disarray, and the Chu army could come from the south so easily. I am afraid that the six cities would not be protected. The entire Jiujiang County, except here and Yinling where Deng Ruo was guarding, was trampled by Chu's cavalry.

"Today... we can only fight to the death." Wu Cheng swallowed his saliva.

"Kill the Yue people!"

Zhou Yin waved his hand gently, and the "locusts" swarmed up. Although there were obstacles on the road, the Chu army was well prepared and sent a team of soldiers and horses to clear them. The subsequent soldiers held siege logs and hit the city gate.

The filthy swords that filled the sky were shot at, but the Chu army did not push away. Even though they had arrows stuck in their bodies, they still climbed the ladder up the city, as if they had never been hit by an arrow.

Mei Yi was helped down the city wall, while Wu Cheng and Yao Wuyu commanded the Yue people to fight.

Wu and Cheng could hide their emotions, but all the Vietnamese soldiers knew that He Chuan Hu Xi was dead, so they suppressed their fear and faced the enemy, and their movements had already slowed down too much.

The Chu soldiers who were still at the bottom of the city just now had already walked up the wooden ladder to the front without paying attention.

"Kill the enemy, kill the enemy!"

Yao Wuyu almost felt dazzled, so he rushed to the Chu man and stabbed him with his sword. Before the Chu man who was attacking the city fell to pieces, he stabbed Yao Wuyu with his sword and scratched his arm.

"Commander, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time. Why don't our troops withdraw? Go straight to Hengshan Kingdom. If Wu Rui is unable to resist, the Qin Kingdom will also rush to help here." The soldiers admonished.

As soon as this statement came out, the Vietnamese army, which was already low on fighting spirit, only thought about how to escape. They had no intention of fighting and found it difficult to serve as an army.

Wu Cheng, as the great pillar of the Hengshan Kingdom, did not want to bring disaster to Hengshan, but the current situation meant that he would either die in battle here or be chased to Hengshan and die. The latter might still have a glimmer of hope.

"Trouble broke out after the Qin State sent an envoy to the Chu State. This war must be related to the Qin State. We don't need to sacrifice our lives for the Qin people!"

Without waiting for a reaction, the Yue people who were fighting dropped their weapons and stepped back to open the city gate for the Chu army.

"The overlord only wants to kill Wu Rui and Ziying. Taihou is not at fault. We are willing to surrender!" the Yue people shouted.

Mei Cheng's Vietnamese soldiers were mixed with those sent by Wu Rui. Wu Cheng's subordinates saw that something was going wrong, so they pulled Wu Cheng down to the top of the city and rode their horses together to escape to the south of the city.

“Don’t be timid in front of the enemy!!”

Seeing this chaos, Mei Yi exclaimed. Some of the soldiers looked ashamed but did not intend to fight, while the rest of the Yue people were calm.

The Yue people are not one tribe at all, they are just a collection of indigenous people who live together in the same area. Only Wu Rui back then could unite these people into fighting, but Mei Ao did not have this ability. We are fine when we are rich and powerful, but we cannot stand side by side in times of adversity.

Seeing the situation, the Chu army took the opportunity to attack the city wildly, followed closely by Zhou Yin Danxiao.

Before coming here, Zhou Yin had told his subordinates that they would not kill the Vietnamese if they surrendered. This place would be under his jurisdiction in the future, and he did not want to lay the foundation for chaos.

Zhou Yin was surrounded by guards, fearing that the Yue people were trying to surrender, so they escorted Zhou Yin step by step to the top of the city.

"Those who surrender...will not be killed." Zhou Yin could show a charitable smile.

"Thank you, Commander Zhou!" The Yue people were saved from death and shouted in unison.

"Ha..." Zhou Yin lightly kicked a Yue corpse, "If this had been done earlier, the Yue people would not have suffered any casualties. The overlord wants to attack Wu Rui, why should Taihou intervene? His subordinates suffered such an unreasonable disaster. Taihou has done it before."

Before Yao Wuyu could react, he stood there blankly, watching Zhou Yin approach step by step.

"Is there any chance?" Zhou Yin patted his shoulder lightly, "It is your blessing that Commander Xiang Guan did not die in the previous battle. Otherwise, if I had let Commander go today, the Overlord would not have agreed."

Yao Wuyu originally wanted to take action, but after hearing Xiang Yu's name, he had to hold back.

"Even if Zhou Yin can be killed, Xiang Yu will eventually fall if he comes here." Yao Wuyu thought in his mind, seeming unwilling to give up, but also looking for a reason to feel at ease for his defeat.

Zhou Yin shook his head intentionally or unintentionally, "Bring Mei Yi up!"

Mei Rong, who was suddenly left alone, was pushed away by the Chu army. He was resentful and unwilling to face Zhou Yin.

"The previous defeat of Chu was due to the trick of more people. However, this time the army is pressing down, the trick is just a trick and not worth mentioning." Zhou Yin said sarcastically.

"snort!..."

Mei Yi snorted coldly, but before he could speak, he was kicked down by Yue Ren, who was just a subordinate.

"Don't be rude to Commander Zhou!" the Yue people shouted.

Mei Hao gritted his teeth, but didn't know how to scold him.

"Hahaha..." Zhou Yin shook his head and laughed, reaching out to help Mei Rong up, "Taihou should know at this moment that he was determined to fight against Chu. The overlord did not let Taihou be crowned king because he had a deeper meaning. Now he is helping Chu to attack.

Hengshan captured Wu Rui alive."

"Capture Wu Rui? Does Commander Zhou not know that I and Wu Rui are not only from Yue, but their mother's surname is also Mei?" Mei Rui also agreed to this matter in his heart, but still wanted to show his dignity.

"Why not?"

Zhou Yin was too lazy to persuade him any more and stared at Mei Yi, saying that he would agree even if he didn't agree today!

puff--

Mei Hao suddenly opened his eyes wide, his chest was opened, and a sword penetrated from behind. The soldiers on both sides were stunned. When Mei Hao's body fell, the man who had just sent the head appeared in front of Zhou Yin...

"Who asked you to kill?!"

Zhou Yin was shocked and turned pale. He drew his sword and cut off the man's right hand, saying, "If Mei Yi is left alone, the two Southeast Zuos will not invade Chu! He and Mei Yi are from the same clan, and they will not be Wu Rui's."

Work hard!!"

Zhou Yin was completely in disarray. The army suppressed the city without attacking. He first used his momentum to win people's hearts, and then used his head to shake Wu Yu's head as a inducement to win without a fight. This was just to An Meiyue and retreat from the Zu clan.

Otherwise, we can just attack early, why bother to go to such trouble?!

But the Chu army destroyed his carefully planned plan with just one sword!

When Mei Yuan died, the two men were afraid but would not give up. On the contrary, they were self-defeating.

"Yes... it is the overlord's intention." The Chu army gasped in pain, "Mei Yu dug the Huai River and flooded the fertile fields of Chu... so he had to kill..."

Zhou Yin's face was livid, and he was speechless in retorting. He suddenly stabbed the Chu soldier to death with his sword, grabbed the armor and threw it off the city wall.

"Remember! This man died during the attack on the city!!" Zhou Yin shook his blood-stained sword, his anger still lingering, "Why don't you chase Wu Cheng quickly?!"
