It was night, and the sky was as black as the bottom of a pot.

Nearly 700,000 to 80,000 Chu troops were lying dead outside Hangu Pass. Countless red streams flowed from high places to low areas, making a faint sound and making a sound of blood flow! The smell of flesh and blood attracted wild beasts from the nearby countryside, such as cruel leopards and greedy wolves.

Hungry wolves, brave lions, croaking vultures. The sounds of wild beasts fighting for prey, the neighing sounds and the pale and pitiful cries of lost horses, make people feel fear and sadness!

Xiang Yu led the defeated troops to retreat fifty miles and set up camp!

The gate of Hangu Pass opened wide, and a group of people and horses rushed out like ghosts. It was as if they had practiced light kung fu and could walk on the snow without leaving a trace. Although the horses' hooves quickly kicked up dust, they did not make a sound. This group of people and horses was about ten thousand people. After passing through the suspension bridge,

They went straight to the mountain path without even lighting a torch. An experienced professional soldier could tell at a glance that the cavalry had wrapped the horse's hooves with sheepskin, and the horse's mouth was choked with a cage. The soldier had something in his mouth.

Plum branch!

Chu, Chen Ying of Shangzhu State.

The famous man next to King Huai of Chu!

The lucky old man who was hit by pies falling from the sky one after another!

In desperation, he finally rebelled against the revolution!

This cavalry was led by Meng Duo himself, with Huan Yan as deputy general. Under the leadership of Chen Ying, they went straight to the Chu army's granary!

The person guarding the granary is Xiang Yu's trusted general, his brother-in-law Yu Ziqi. This may be the person with a foreign surname that Xiang Yu trusts the most besides Fan Zeng. The problem lies with the deputy general, Dong Yi.

The dead trees and cliffs in the wilderness seem to be covered with a layer of black veil. You can see the dark outline, but you can't see the tall and steep majestic posture. Everything is as misty as a dream. On the winding mountain road, a team is crawling,

Neither holding a torch nor saying a word, he was like an arrow that had been detached from the string, darting towards the camp in the distance.

It was Xiang Yu's bad luck. Meng Duo came at the right time. Yu Ziqi went to the Chinese army to hold a battle summary meeting, leaving Dong Yi to look after the house. Dong Yi had been in a depressed mood for the past two days. He was drunk and fell into a coma.

.

He knew there was a sharp sword hanging above his head, and it could strike down at any time.

Ever since Xiang Yu killed 300,000 to 400,000 Qin army brothers, Dong Yi often got drunk. Whenever he got drunk, a sea of ​​fire would appear in front of him.

That was the fire set by General Shejian.

Dong Yi never expected that Shejian, a guy with a mean and sinister speech, would be so loyal, so strong-willed, and so like a Qinchuan man.

"Wang Li, Wang Li, you are young and arrogant, how can you compete with Zhang Han? If you and Shejian hadn't relied on your regular border defense Qin army and looked down on the temporary miscellaneous army, how could Zhang Han be in charge?

The Jiyuan camp in the south of Zhangshui is standing still - think about how Yingbu and General Pu's 20,000 troops can cut off the tunnel - how can we end up in this situation - "

Dong Yi did not see Wang Lisujiao beheaded, but he saw with his own eyes the fire in Shejian on the top of the mountain.

On that day, Wang Li was beheaded by Xiang Yu, avenging Xiang Yan. Su Jiao was also killed by Long Qie. She Jian led the remaining few border Qin troops and were surrounded in the camp. Zhong Limei was ordered to attack the stronghold and repeatedly persuaded She Jian.

She Jian vowed not to surrender to the death: "I am a loyal minister of the country, and I have been favored by the emperor in this life, how can I surrender the traitor!" Hearing that Wang Li and Su Jiao were killed, She Jian was disheartened and unwilling to surrender, let alone be captured.

He gritted his teeth, set a fire, burned Qin Ying to the ground, and died in the fire.

Even if I burn it, I won’t leave it for you.

Dong Yi was stupid at first, but now he feels ashamed every time he thinks about it. He always feels that it would be clean to die as grandly as She Jian did. It is better than being condemned by conscience every day now.

Dong Yi couldn't figure it out. Zhang Han originally wanted to use the hands of the rebels to teach Wang Li and Shejian a lesson. If he then sent troops to rescue him in a big way, he would suppress Wang Li and Shejian's arrogance. In the future, the two of them would

He couldn't turn his nostrils to the sky and feel arrogant. However, he never thought that Wang Li and Shejian's army would be wiped out in a single battle, leaving him in an isolated and helpless situation.

Especially when Zhang Han heard that Wang Li and Su Jiao were killed, and She Jian*, he burst into tears and regretted everything in his intestines. Even if Wang Li could hold on for one more day, why did he collapse at the first touch? I'm afraid this is not the same as Wang Li's.

Arrogance has something to do with Xiang Yu's desperate situation. In short, Zhang Han completely miscalculated.

Despite this, Zhang Han's hundreds of thousands of troops still had a chance to turn defeat into victory. At this time, Zhao Gao's dog thief came out to make trouble again. However, this time Zhao Gao did not completely spread the rumor. Zhao Gao told Qin II a reason, and he did it

Qin II jumped up to Lao Gao and became furious.

"Your Majesty, please think about it, why Wang Li's 200,000-strong army was completely wiped out, but Zhang Han's more than 300,000-strong army was not injured at all. Isn't this worthy of doubt?"

If Wang Zhu was the emperor at that time, he would have doubted it, but Wang Zhu would not have been so confused as to issue an edict to condemn Zhang Han at this time. Qin II also did not expect that Zhao Gao would send people to hunt down Sima Xin behind his back.

.

Dong Yi did not regret his original surrender. However, he did not expect that more than 300,000 brothers would be killed in this inexplicable way on this piece of paper.

If these people died in battle, it would be their fate and the honor of being loyal to the country as a soldier. Dong Yi would not be too uncomfortable. However, such a way of death would be tantamount to sending these brothers to death with his own hands.

Desperate stage!

Dong Yi wanted to cry but had no tears. Familiar faces flashed before his eyes, like a fleeting moment. For a living person to live to this point, it would be better to be dead. He feels heartbroken, bleeds, and has no face to see Mr. Qin Chuan!

No matter how much gold, silver and jewelry you give, it will be useless.

Drinking Yunnan Baiyao cannot make up for the psychological trauma!!

Having said that, Xiang Yu didn't give the three of them any good treatment. Zhang Han had the title of King Yong, but he couldn't control any soldiers and stayed with Xiang Yu as a hostage. Sima Xin was the general, and Dong Yi was the second general.

, commanded the Qin army, but the next day the two of them found that they could no longer command, and the Qin army was all killed, leaving no one alive.

After hearing the news, the three of them were all stunned, as if they had been hit with dozens of sticks on their heads. Dong Yi didn't even think about his own life at that time. He knelt on the ground with a thud and started crying: "Brothers, I'm sorry for you.

!”

Zhang Han and Sima Xin were trembling all over, but they didn't dare to speak. Their eyes were filled with tears and they were hazy. They were sweating like they had just been fished out of a pond.

Xiang Yu didn't bother to pay attention to them, turned around and left, casually saying: "Don't cry, there is nothing to cry about, aren't you still alive?"

There are two reasons why Dong Yi was not killed due to his behavior. The first is that Xiang Yu does not want outsiders to say that he has crossed the river and burned the bridge and is not loyal. The second is that he does not take them seriously at all. Most of them are the latter.

Human hearts are made of flesh. Hundreds of thousands of brothers who have been through life and death have lost their lives in vain. Can the boss feel at ease? Those are more than 300,000 living men!

Dong Yi gets drunk every day.

Yu Ziqi's character is very similar to Xiang Yu, rude and rude.

Birds of a feather flock together, and people fall into groups. The two met in their teens, perhaps because they had similar temperaments. Dong Yi worked under him, and the abuse he suffered can be imagined. He was angry all day long, homesick, and had a lot of mental pressure. For several months

During the war, Dong Yi was stooped, mentally depressed, and looked dozens of years older.

When he was lying in the handsome tent with tears in his eyes and a drowsy state, there was a loud shout of killing outside the tent. A group of Qin soldiers from Yu Ziqi lifted up the curtains and rushed in with the cold wind and snowflakes. With suspicious eyes, they raised their voices.

He shouted: "General, it's bad, the Qin army robbed the camp——"

Dong Yi suddenly jumped up from the couch, hurriedly picked up the spear and went out. "Quick, meet the enemy and send people to protect the food and grass."

When Dong Yi rushed out of the tent, he discovered that it was too late. The back village where the grain and grass were stored was already in flames. The fire burned the entire sky like the bottom of a flaming pot.

In the entire camp, the Chu army and the Qin army were mixed together, and the sound of killing was loud. There was already a layer of corpses lying at their feet. Three Qin generals rode towards the central army tent on horseback. Dong Yi got on his horse and was about to fight, but

He was grabbed by the captain of the soldiers on the side: "Do you want to escape? It's not that easy?"

Dong Yi was immediately confused: "How dare you, why should I escape? I, the general, will kill the enemy."

"Come on, catch this spy." The captain of the soldiers, ignoring the life-and-death struggle in the camp, commanded hundreds of soldiers who were direct descendants of the Chu army and surrounded Dong Yi.

Dong Yi was furious: "Who do you think is a spy? Who do you think you are?"

"I am from Chu, a soldier from Jiangdong. You are a spy. If you were not a spy, how would the Qin army know that the food and grass are here? It is even less likely that they would attack the back village as soon as they came up. It must be you, the surrendered general, who informed me.

I will take you to see my lord and kill you with a thousand cuts."

The commander's tent was hit by several rockets and began to burn. The sound of crashing filled his ears. The firelight illuminated Dong Yi's face, which was as pale as paper. The Qin general rushed forward and hacked to death the Chu soldiers blocking the way.

Except for the disciples of Jiangdong Army, the rest all fled in all directions.

Dong Yi was trapped by his own people and could not mount his horse to meet the enemy. The Qin army set fire even more unscrupulously. The fire became more and more fierce. Hundreds of thousands of grains were turned into black ashes in the blink of an eye. Everywhere in the camp was on fire. Ten miles away,

The hot wind was blowing, and my hair was permed and curled.

When Meng Duo arrived at the central military tent, he found that there was no one inside. Someone reported that more than 20 enemy cavalry soldiers broke through the rear stronghold and fled for their lives. Meng Duo instinctively thought that it might be the enemy generals of the Chu army who had escaped.

The military supplies had been burned, and Meng Duo did not dare to stay. He immediately led his troops back to Hangu Pass the way they came. As for the Chu army's baggage, Meng Duo didn't even bother to look at it. The Qin Dynasty was short of men. Other things, including weapons, food, grass and horses, were all available.

They had just been defeated, and now the army rations had been burned again. It would be strange if Xiang Yu didn't get furious.

"Come on, press Dong Yi up for me."

Dong Yi was tied up and staggered forward to the central military tent. When he saw Xiang Yu, he was knocked to the ground by Yu Ziqi before he could explain.

"You bastard, didn't I tell you to take strict precautions? Why did the enemy burn the food and grass? What did you do for food?" Yu Ziqi was so angry that he raised his big foot and kicked him violently.

At this moment, Zhang Han and Sima Xin were pushed in from outside. When they saw that Dong Yi was beaten with a bruised nose and face, they were scared and angry.

Sima Xin took two steps quickly, cupped his hands and said: "My lord, victory or defeat is a common thing for military officers. Now Dong Yi has just lost his granary. He can't handle it by military law. Why use lynching?" When Yu Ziqi heard this, his eyes were as wide as bells.

He said angrily: "You bastard, you have no right to speak here. He is my lieutenant. I can beat him if I want. It's none of your business! If you piss me off, I'll beat you too!"

Sima Xin's face turned green with anger, but he didn't dare to speak. He huffed and looked at Xiang Yu, hoping that Xiang Yu would provide him with justice! Guess what Xiang Yu said:

"Ziqi, Ziqi, that's about it. Don't beat me to death!"

What is this word?

Zhang Han pulled Yu Ziqi and said, "My lord has said that he will not be beaten!"

"Go away, my lord said he wouldn't be beaten to death, but he didn't say he wouldn't be maimed!" Yu Ziqi shook off Zhang Han's arm.

"General, Sima Xin, you don't need to plead for me, just let me be beaten to death - I have already done enough of this kind of life!" Dong Yi curled up on the ground and followed the raindrops.

A fist rolling.

"No -" Zhang Han became anxious and pushed Yu Ziqi towards him, then drew out his sword with a clang: "Stop! Yu Ziqi, what right do you have to use torture?"

"Okay, okay--" Xiang Yu sneered and waved his hand to repel Yu Ziqi.

When Yu Ziqi saw that Zhang Han was so audacious, daring to glare at him, and even dared to strike him with a knife, he wished he could crush Zhang Han to pieces immediately, but he didn't expect Xiang Yu to ask him to stop!

"You bastard General Qin, I get angry when I see you. Do you dare to draw a sword with me? Okay, Zhang Han, I remember you, just wait for me!"

Zhang Han also took the risk: "Wait just wait, you will look unhappy with me, and I will look at you as an eyesore. You are a fake and powerful thing. If it weren't for your sister, you would be where you are today!" "What a fool -" Yu Ziqi took a step.

Stepping out of the handsome tent, after hearing these words, he immediately exploded like a gun with a fuse lit, and pounced on Zhang Han like a hungry tiger: "I'll kill you!"

Xiang Yu stood up and strode away. His arms separated the two people who were looking at each other with splitting eyes. He pointed at Zhang Han's forehead and said: "I'm telling you, even if I give you a lesson three times today, I won't kill you if you make any mistakes in the future. Today

To give you a face, you take Dong Yi back. If I find out that he leaked the military plan, I will skin the three of you together. Get out!" Zhang Han's eyes were straight, and his hair and beard were bulging:

"Lord, what do you mean? How could we leak the secret? Why should we do this?"

Xiang Yu roared at the top of his lungs: "Because you are surrendered generals and people of Qin. The people of Qin are all despicable and shameless. All the people of Qin should be killed. Damn it, when I enter the pass, I will kill them all and wipe out the roots of the people of Qin."

Absolutely."

Zhang Han knelt down on the ground and said excitedly: "My lord Mingjian, at this moment, the three of us are the least likely to surrender! My lord, think about it, we three Qin people have surrendered to the Chu State, and Qin Chuan's father hates me.

It’s hard to wait until we get to the point where we still have a way to turn back!”

Xiang Yu gave him a cold look: "Don't do this. I've told you everything you need to say. You'd better be smarter and don't let me catch you. Take Dong Yi with you and get out."

Sima Xin's whole body trembled, and the scales on his armor trembled and rattled: "My lord, why do you doubt Dong Yi?"

Xiang Yu's eyes widened: "The granary is so secret, and few people in the Chu army know where it is. How come the Qin army can find it? It would be strange if there wasn't a spy who reported it!"

Sima Xin argued: "Even if there is a spy, it may not be Dong Yi!"
