Chapter 40 Ge Ying Li Chu

Since Chen Sheng captured Chen County, under Ge Ying's recommendation, he ordered him to send troops to Jiujiang to open up the road to the south and prepare for the recovery of Chu in the future.

At this time, Ge Ying led 5,000 troops and horses all the way south, gathering ships from Xincai and preparing to cross the river. Seeing the mighty army starting to gather in the river port, Ge Ying sighed softly, he didn't know how many military and horses the Qin State would send to suppress Chen Sheng, but his timely transition to Jiujiang was definitely the right choice.

Soon, ferries began to set sail. This was the first group of troops crossing the river. Ge Ying looked at the ship gradually and walked away, but a confidant came over and whispered beside him: "General, I don't know whether I have anything to say."

Seeing that he was hesitant, Ge Ying was a little unhappy and scolded: "Speak quickly if you have something to do!"

"I think we should not support Chen Sheng and be the nameless Chu army, but should seek the people of Chu and make him the King of Chu. Only when the truth is right can our army be loyal to death. We will also transform from a 'chaotic army' and 'bandit army' into a regular Chu army. The morale of the army will be greatly improved, and the battle will be won and the attack will be overcome."

After hearing this, Ge Ying couldn't help but narrow his eyes and stare into the distance. He was also considering the pros and cons of this matter. If he was not dealt with properly, would he cause trouble? But what he said was not without reason. Since ancient times, he was famous in his masters, and Ge Ying began to be moved.

Not long after, a person came with a horse and bowed and said, "General, you can cross the river."

Ge Ying was interrupted and pondered. He looked into the distance. The ferry had already returned at some point. Ge Ying nodded and headed towards the river port. At this time, he remembered the words of his confidant just now, looked at his confidant and ordered: "Don't make a statement about this matter, you can secretly search for it."

The confidant nodded and clasped his fists: "Don't worry, General, I will do this well and will never let the general down."

The confidant left, and Ge Ying watched his back gradually disappear, then turned her horse's head and headed towards the river port.

......

Crossing the Huai River, Ge Ying led his army to the east. They avoided the big city with more troops and marched towards Zhongli along the winding path, preparing to occupy their foothold there, and then hurriedly drew Jiujiang to erode the Qin power here bit by bit.

Just as the army was about to stop and advance rapidly, the Qin army set up a formation north of Yinling County to prepare to fight against Ge Ying's army.

Ge Ying claimed to be a master, but when he passed by Quyang, he showed his legs. Three thousand soldiers in Shouchun rushed for a day and a night before he rushed to the front of Ge Ying's army, preparing to attack Ge Ying's army. The war drums sounded loudly on the sky, and the rumbling sound was endless. Five hundred cavalry in front, two thousand infantry in the back, and on both sides were the most powerful crossbow formations of the Qin army.

Ge Ying was already in line at this time. His army was a poorly armed peasant army. Although some weapons were added when leaving Chen County, many people still held simple bamboo spears and rakes, and their combat effectiveness was not strong.

It is precisely because of this that Ge Ying considered evading the main force of the Qin army. After all, his strength was not yet mature, but things did not go as expected. Ge Ying finally encountered the Qin army in the Yinling area.

At this time, war drums were also beaten in the Chu army formation, and the red Chu flag fluttered in the wind. At this time, Ge Ying came out with a spear. Opposite, a general of the Qin army came to the front of the formation with a double hammer. He was Zhang Tong, the leader of the Qin army.

Zhang Tong looked at Ge Ying for a while. Seeing that he was shabby in clothes, he couldn't help but sneer. He suddenly felt contemptuous and turned around and smiled at the army and said, "Look at me within three combinations, kill this thief!"

"Magnificent! Magnificent!" The Qin army shouted loudly in the formation, with high morale. Zhang Tong drove out the horse, and moved faster and faster, heading straight for Ge Ying to kill. Ge Ying on the opposite side was also extremely alert at this time. He looked at Zhang Tong who was galloping towards him, clenched the spear in his hand, and briefly motivated himself. Ge Ying shouted loudly, thrust the spear horizontally, and killed Zhang Tong.

The two sides met in an instant. Ge Ying swung his spear and stabbed Zhang Tong in front of him. Zhang Tong waved his double hammers strongly, separated the spear and rushed straight to Ge Ying's face. Ge Ying saw Zhang Tong's attack fiercely, and had to lie on his back on his back and avoid Zhang Tong's attack.

The two sides quickly separated with the speed of the horse, but soon, the two turned their heads and rushed towards each other again. Ge Ying flicked his spear this time, and Zhang Tong set up a double hammer to block it, but soon, Ge Ying hit the Hang Seng Index and knocked Zhang Tong down with a spear. With a muffled sound, Zhang Tong fell more than ten steps before he stopped.

Ge Ying turned around, raised his spear and stabbed Zhang Tong. Zhang Tong had already lost his hand when he was dropped. At this time, he had both hands and had to avoid it. He took the opportunity to catch Ge Ying's spear, and used both hands to pull Ge Ying off the war horse.

The huge impact force forced Zhang Tong to let go of his spear. Ge Ying rolled a few times before stopping, barely getting up, feeling his chest tightness, and a mouthful of blood spurted out. Ge Ying felt much better.

But fortunately, the spear was next to Ge Ying. Ge Ying picked up the spear and looked at Zhang Tong coldly. The two sides were in a stalemate. Zhang Tong wanted to pick up the war hammer, but couldn't find the opportunity. It was about a stalemate for an incense stick. Ge Ying shouted loudly and waved the spear to kill him. Zhang Tong took the opportunity to roll on the spot and rolled to the side of the war hammer. He was happy in his heart, picked up a war hammer, and suddenly turned around, trying to slash Ge Ying, but Ge Ying's spearhead had already stabbed Zhang Tong's throat first.

"Wait," Zhang Tong wanted to speak, but he couldn't say a word. Blood flowed down the spear. Soon, Zhang Tong knelt down, tilted his head, and died under Ge Ying's spear. Ge Ying pulled out the spear from Zhang Tong's throat, waved forward, and shouted: "Kill here!"

Ge Ying's morale was greatly boosted and he flocked out to kill the Qin army. The Qin army broke the main general, and the dragons had no heads, fled to Yinling in a swarm.

Along the way, the Qin army flags and weapons all over the ground, but Ge Ying stopped the soldiers from picking up items and chased the Qin army. Finally, in a mountain area, Ge Ying army surrounded more than 2,000 Qin troops. The soldiers were all excited and shouted: "Those who surrendered live, and those who resisted will be killed without mercy!"

The Qin army was desperate and had to throw away their weapons and surrender. Ge Ying won the first battle and was happy. Although he still fled nearly a thousand Qin soldiers, this battle was enough to make Ge Ying famous in Jiujiang County.

More than a hundred Chu troops gathered their weapons along the way and put the items thrown by the Qin army on the carriage. Ge Ying's main force escorted the Qin army to advance to Yinling. When the sun was shining, Ge Ying's army came to Yinling City. A thousand vanguards had prepared a ladder and lined up. As long as Ge Ying gave the order, the Chu army generals did not hesitate to launch a fierce attack on Yinling.

Finally, the sound of war drums came to an abrupt end. Ge Ying waved her spear and pointed forward. The sound of a low horn sounded. A thousand vanguards rushed forward without hesitation and headed straight for Yinling City. After half a stick of incense, the ladder mounted the Yinling City Wall. The Chu army climbed up hard. Three hundred Chu soldiers holding the wood in their hands rushed to the city gate, shouting slogans, and crashed into the city gate...

The war burned every inch of Yinling land. The soldiers rushed into Yinling City with long spears and rakes. It was late at night. Ge Ying, under the escort of more than a hundred people, headed towards the county government.

In the lobby, the county magistrate and the county magistrate had been killed, and some soldiers were cleaning the battlefield. Ge Ying felt exhausted. His battle with Qin General today had exhausted his energy. At this time, he sat on the soft mat. Ge Ying felt sleepy, but it was not the time to rest, and there were still many things to deal with. Ge Ying was forced to get energetic. At this time, a follower brought a cup of tea. Ge Ying picked up the teacup, blew lightly, and took a sip. It felt much better.

Soon, outside the noisy lobby, a soldier rushed in and bowed and said, "General, the latest information, Jiangdong Kuaiji, Xiang Liang and others killed the county magistrate and supported themselves. Now they are well-known in Kuaiji County, with strong soldiers and strong horses."

Ge Ying nodded and the soldiers retreated. At this time, Ge Ying put down the teacup, stood up and walked around the house. The descendants of the Xiang family revolted in Kuaiji. If he could join forces with the Xiang family to support the descendants of Chu and establish the foundation of Chu, he would be a founding hero and his future would be limitless.

Thinking of this, Ge Ying couldn't help laughing secretly. He might as well move forward south and go to Liyang to advance. Thinking of this, Ge Ying was sleepy again. This time, he really couldn't stand it anymore and had to rest first. He was considering his next plan. Thinking of this, Ge Ying walked towards the back hall.

......

Ten days later, Ge Ying's army continued to march south. At this time, his army had nearly 10,000 people, and his equipment had also improved significantly. Moreover, his morale was high, and the chariots increased from more than ten to more than thirty.

The mighty Chu army was walking on the road. At this time, several fast horses ran towards Ge Ying. Soon, Ge Ying's confidant came to Ge Ying and bowed and smiled, "It really did not disappoint the general's expectations, I brought people."

Behind his heart-wrenching finger, a middle-aged man in a gray robe came to ride a horse. He was approaching. The middle-aged man bowed and smiled, "I have met General Ge Ying in Xiami Xiangjiang."

"Mi" is the surname of Chu, and it can also be named "Xiong". At this time, he reported his name himself. Ge Ying knew a little in his heart that as long as he was a descendant of Chu, he could be justified and ascend the throne and become king. Moreover, they would easily get support from the people of Chu.

At this time, Ge Ying had already looked at Mi Xiangjiang up and down. Although she was dressed simply, she had an extraordinary temperament. Ge Ying could see that he was the person he wanted. Thinking of this, Ge Ying couldn't help but bow and smile and said, "I have met Brother Xiangjiang at Ge Ying."

"Hahaha, why should General Ge Ying be so polite!" Mi Xiangjiang couldn't help but laugh. The two turned their horses and marched side by side. At this time, Ge Ying sighed first, and then said: "Since the demise of Chu, Qin has unified the world. Since then, Chu has no peace. As a Chu man, I have always wanted to restore Chu, but Qin is still strong. The people in Chu are unstable and it is difficult to overthrow the violent Qin. It was not until Chen Sheng's uprising that I gathered more than a hundred people to meet Chen Sheng, and I was able to show my strength and develop southward."

Speaking of this, Ge Ying pretended to sigh, glanced at Mi Xiangjiang, and saw that he was listening, he continued: "Chen Sheng is not a descendant of Chu after all, and he is a little bit light. Although his sight is unlimited, his power is difficult to last for a long time. It is not as prestige as the descendants of Chu, and can stabilize the land of Chu. He responds with one call, so..."

Ge Ying deliberately stopped the verb and turned to stare at Mi Xiangjiang. Mi Xiangjiang also heard the meaning of Ge Ying's words. Perhaps this was an opportunity for him to restore the country. He pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "If you can seize Jiujiang as the foundation and send a letter to all directions, relying on the Xiong family's 100-year royal career in Chu, you will definitely be able to respond to all directions, and great achievements can be made. Moreover, Chu will be able to regain its might, break Wu Pass, and overthrow the violent Qin."

Mi Xiangjiang's idea coincided with her, and Ge Ying couldn't help laughing, "I'm about to recommend Brother Xiangjiang to ascend the throne of King Chu, and I hope Brother Xiangjiang will not refuse."

After a brief look at each other, the two of them swear by high-fives, and they all raised their heads and laughed.
