Chapter 01 The Battle of Gaixia (1)
“Woo woo woo woo…”
The long and long horn sound came faintly from the front. Xiang Zhuang slowly looked up and saw a purple crow rising slowly from behind the low ridges in the north. Following the crow, there was a large forest of endless halberds, and the cold and cold blade was almost reflecting the cold and dark sky.
What appeared later was the storm of people.
Thousands of soldiers, endless, tens of thousands of soldiers, grounded to the sky!
Hundreds of thousands of Qi soldiers gathered into an endless wave of purple. Under the guidance of the purple flag, they rolled down the low ridge and rolled forward. Their vanguards were almost within the range of the Chu army's crossbow, but the light soldiers of the rear army were still rising endlessly behind the ridge.
Xiang Zhuang licked his chapped lips, and a strange bitterness appeared in his heart.
It was Han Xin. Han Xin arrived. He finally led the Qi army to the battlefield in Gaixia!
At this moment, Xiang Zhuang felt unprecedented despair. The Chu army was defeated!
Speaking of which, Xiangzhuang is not the real Xiangzhuang. The real Xiangzhuang should have died in a battle not long ago. Xiangzhuang is just another soul lent in his body. The soul of a veteran nicknamed "Butterfight" more than two thousand years later, the butcher has almost forgotten his original name.
However, the butcher's life was really not very good. It was already unlucky enough to travel through time to the chaotic times at the end of the Qin Dynasty. What's even more unlucky is that he actually traveled through time to become Xiang Zhuang, the number one dancer in all ages. Moreover, when he traveled through time, the Hongmen Banquet had already passed, and the Battle of Gaixia had come to an end. It was already this time. What else could he do? What else could he do besides waiting for death?
Assist Xiang Yu to complete the Jedi counterattack? Stop kidding, that is delusion.
If Xiang Yu was a hero who deserves assistance, Liu Bang would have been killed by him long ago. Where would the Battle of Gaixia today come from?
Let’s take a look at the coalition lineup that was hostile to Chu, Liu Bang, Han Xin, Peng Yue, Ying Bu, Zhang Liang, Chen Ping... Just thinking about it makes people feel numb! The "butcher" never thinks he can play with these ancient people. Even though he is a time traveler, even if he has two thousand years of experience, and there are so many classic battle examples that can be learned from in history books.
Therefore, following Xiang Yu can only be a dead end, so running away? That is a dead end!
Liu Bang is not a good man and a trustworthy woman. He will never let any of the direct descendants of the Xiang family. The "butcher" is now Xiang Zhuang, Xiang Yu's younger brother, and Xiang Yan's grandson! Even if he escapes to the ends of the world and into the desert, he will most likely not escape Liu Bang's vicious hands. How could Liu Bang be the best emperor from the market to the extreme?

Under the purple flag, Han Xin, wearing a white robe and white armor, rode a white horse, slowly raised his right hand.
In an instant, hundreds of cavalry followed the marching line and rushed from the front to the back formation: "The king has an order, stop moving forward!"
"The king has an order, stop moving forward!"
"The king has an order, stop moving forward!"
"The king has an order, stop moving forward!"
The orders were issued one after another, and the hundreds of thousands of troops that were moving forward slowly stopped.
Amid the chaotic sound of horse hooves, generals such as Guan Ying, Cao Shen, Li Zuoche surrounded Han Xin.
"King, set up a camp." Li Zuoche rushed forward. He was the grandson of Li Mu, a famous general of Zhao State, and had a lot of strategies.
Han Xin ignored Li Zuoche's suggestion, but narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the Chu army in front of him, waiting for battle without saying a word.
In a daze, a smile appeared on the corner of Han Xin's mouth, and then raised his right hand again, stretched out his index finger and gently pressed it forward, and said lightly: "Transfer the order from the big flag, the whole army will attack!"
As soon as this statement was made, generals such as Guan Ying, Cao Shen and Li Zuoche were shocked.
The big sign was sent, but it was the general attack of the entire army, and even the tentative attack was spared?
"Your Majesty," Li Zuoche hurriedly stopped him, "Our army had just passed a long march, and the soldiers were extremely tired and had not yet established a stable foothold. How could they rashly fight the Chu army?"
"Yes, lord, let's fight again another day."
"Master, why not lead the left army to attack by the Mo General."
Guan Ying, Cao Shen and other Qi generals also stepped forward to dissuade them.
Han Xin waved his hand gently and repeated in a faint and unquestionable tone: "The big flag is sent, and the whole army will attack!"
After a moment, the horns in the Qi army formation suddenly changed, from distant and long to high and exciting. In an instant, hundreds of thousands of Qi soldiers rushed forward like floods breaking the dike.
#############
Seeing the entire Qi army attacking from afar, the Chu army suddenly became in an uproar.
Xiang Zhuang couldn't help but take a breath. Han Xin, it's worthy of being Han Xin. He dared to launch an attack when the army arrived, and from the beginning it was the general attack of the entire army, without even a tentative attack!
Han Xin is a soldier who is really like antelope hanging on his horns, and there is no trace of it!
When she looked back suddenly, Xiang Zhuang's eyes fell on the man as majestic as the mountain mist beside her.
The man was handsome, his eyes were as bright as lightning, and he was more than eight feet tall. He was extremely majestic and majestic under his crotch. He held a large iron halberd, which was 18 feet long!
Xiang Yu, he is Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu!
Seeing the Qi army launching a large-scale attack, Xiang Yu was furious: "Han Xin, how dare you be so arrogant!"
Xiang Yu could not be angry. He was always a burden and never took the heroes of the world seriously. Now Han Xin was out of the ordinary. The army marched here for a long distance, and neither rested nor tempted. He was attacking the entire army at the beginning. He was extremely contemptuous of the Chu army. How could he with Xiang Yu's pride?
After saying that, Xiang Yu looked back suddenly and said to Xiang Zhuang: "Third brother, the big brother, the army will attack!"
"Brother Wang, what can't do it!" Xiang Zhuang knew Han Xin's power well. In his attainment to commanding the large corps to fight, this person was unmatched in the past, and few people in later generations could defeat him. Isn't it because the Chu army fought against him, so wouldn't it be a death? Xiang Zhuang now advised, "Brother Wang, our army has little troops and food, so it's not appropriate to fight again. Let's retreat quickly while the coalition forces have not yet completed the encirclement."
"Shut up!" Xiang Yu said in anger, "Go and pass the order quickly, otherwise you will die."
"No!" Xiang Zhuang felt awe-inspiring and immediately issued an order to attack the entire army. In an instant, the 100,000 Chu troops also faced the Qi army with tit-for-tat under the guidance of the yellow flag.
Xiang Yu then turned over and dismounted, held a large iron halberd and rushed towards the Qi army's flag opposite.
#############
When the Qi army was central to the Qi army, when she saw Xiang Yu personally led the Chu army to launch a tit-for-tat attack on the Qi army, Han Xin couldn't help but feel a faint disdain on the corner of her mouth and said, "Xiang Yu, after all, is just a fierce man."
Guan Ying, Cao Shen, Li Zuoche and other generals looked at each other. In the world, only the King of Qi dared to say this. Isn’t the 200,000 elite border troops of the Great Qin Empire defeated Xiang Yu’s “violent battle”? Heroes like Han King Liu Bang were also defeated by Xiang Yu’s “every man” many times and were defeated by Xiang Yu’s “human”?
#############
The two armies advanced, and within a short time they had already collided with each other. The two armies suddenly had people and horses overturned in front of the formation!
Xiang Yu was very powerful, and swept across the board with a halberd in his hands. More than ten soldiers in front of him fell to the ground, and all the long halberds in his hands were broken on the spot!
A Qi army chief was very strong and waved his halberd to take Xiang Yu straight, shouting: "Xiang Yu, die!"
Xiang Yu laughed and suddenly opened his mouth and roared at the Qi army chief. The sound was like thunder and like a mountain collapse and rock crack. The Qi army chief heard a buzzing sound in his ears, and then he looked like stars and collapsed to the ground.
"Hahaha!" Xiang Yu smiled three times at the sky, danced his halberd again and made a rush forward crazily, and no one could stop him for a moment.
Behind Xiang Yu, Xiang Zhuang led 800 sharp soldiers to follow the death. The attack arrow composed of these 800 sharp soldiers was like a sharp bone-clearing knife, and it immediately entered the front of the Qi army.
#############
In the central army of Qi, Li Zuoche showed a solemn expression on his face and said to Han Xin: "King, Xiang Yu is indeed well-known. In just a short time, his vanguard almost broke through the front of our army!"
But Han Xin said lightly: "The Dead Soldiers Camp forward and respond to the front army!"
#############
In front of the two armies, Qi infantry wearing light armor and holding long spears suddenly retreated like a tide. A large group of light soldiers wearing grazing clothes, tied with buns and holding short swords appeared in front of the Chu army.
Xiang Zhuang's eyes suddenly condensed and shouted at Xiang Yu: "Brother Wang, the dead soldiers of Qi army!"
"Dead Soldier?" Xiang Yu sneered when he heard this and said coldly, "I will make them dead!"
The next moment, Xiang Yu had already abandoned the big iron halberd and broke into the Qi army's dead soldiers formation with a sword in one hand.
"Die!" Two Qi army dead soldiers protected their swords behind them and coldly faced Xiang Yu's sword edge with their chests. The dead soldiers were dead soldiers. In order to kill the enemy, they would never be stingy with their lives!
But it’s a pity that they are facing the most powerful man in the ages - Xiang Yu!
In the flash of lightning, before the two Qi army soldiers could lift out the short sword hidden behind them, the big sword in Xiang Yu's hand had already swept through the necks with a dazzling cold light. Blood splattered, and the two ferocious heads with their eyebrows and eyes were thrown high. The two corpses with lost heads rushed forward, but the short swords hidden behind them could not be handed out.
Xiang Yu killed two people with one sword, and two more Qi army soldiers arrived. Before he could return the sword, Xiang Yu suddenly sank his shoulders and collided. The two Qi army soldiers could not react and were immediately hit, and their chests collapsed and their bones were broken, and their internal organs were shattered.
Witnessing Xiang Yu's divine power, the Chu army following him immediately cheered like a tsunami.
On the other hand, all the dead soldiers of the Qi army opposite were shocked. The dead soldiers were not afraid of death, but were afraid of death in vain. Their death also came at a price. When they found that their death was costless, they would also retreat.
#############
In the middle of Qi army, Li Zuoche's expression on his face had become solemn and horrified, and he said to Han Xin in disbelief: "King, the Dead Soldiers' Camp cannot stop it, and was led by Xiang Yu to break through!"
"See it." Han Xin said lightly, "Change the Martial Purse Formation."
#############
In front of the two armies, the Qi army soldiers wearing grazing clothes and holding short swords retreated like a tide.
Xiang Yu raised his bloody sword and pointed at the Qi army's flag faintly visible in front of him. He was about to say a few words of cheering to the Chu army soldiers following him. Suddenly, neat and heavy footsteps came from behind. He turned around and saw countless Qi army infantry wearing iron armor, iron helmets, and shield spears, pressing over with neat steps.
"Wu Zhuang!" Xiang Zhuang shouted sternly, "Brother Wang, it is the Qi army's Wu Zhu formation!"
The so-called martial soldiers are actually heavy infantry covered with armor, created by Wu Qi, a famous general of the Wei Kingdom!
According to historical records, after the Wei Wuzhang trained to form an army, he fought south and north under Wu Qi. After 72 major battles, 64 of which were completely won, and the rest were tied, but none of them were defeated!
The Qin State, which was neighboring Wei, was deeply hurt. In the battle of Yin Jin, 500,000 Qin troops were defeated by 50,000 Wei Wushang, resulting in a large area of land east of Huashan. As a result, the population of Qin State dropped sharply and its national strength declined. Qin Xiaogong Yingquliang was ordered in the face of danger, which led to the later Shang Yang reforms and Qin Shihuang's troops swallowing up the six countries!
The martial arts soldier is notorious, but Xiang Yu is fearless and said sneeringly: "Let me see how I can break it!"
After saying that, Xiang Yu abandoned his sword and replaced it with a large iron halberd, and then waved his halberd to break into the Qi army's military military formation.
Although the Qi army's military soldiers were protected by heavy armor and covered by large shields, all of this was useless in front of Xiang Yu who could carry the tripod. Xiang Yu's halberd was aimed at, and all the spears, swords, shields, armor were shattered, and soldiers and generals were invincible. Xiang Zhuang and 800 personal soldiers took advantage of the situation to cover up the killing, but they could not stop them. Although the Qi army's military soldiers fought to the death, they were still killed and retreated step by step.
#############
In the middle of Qi army, Li Zuoche changed his face even more and said to Han Xin: "King, the martial soldiers cannot stop Xiang Yu!"
Han Xin looked up at the purple flag above his head, then looked down at Xiang Yu who had almost reached the forefront, and then calmly ordered: "Retreat the flag, and the troops will fight and retreat."
When the generals heard this, they were all disgusted. The two armies were fighting endlessly. The most taboo thing was to retreat. When the troops were not large, it was okay to say that once the troops exceeded 100,000, it would be difficult to maintain effective command of each army and division while retreating. Therefore, if you are not careful, the entire army will be defeated, especially when facing a brave general like Xiang Yu, you should be more cautious.
General Cao Shen gritted his teeth and stepped forward to persuade: "Master, think twice. At this time, the enemy and our army have been strangled together. Suddenly, the order to retreat may lead to the defeat of the entire army!"
The cavalry general Guan Ying also said, "Yes, you can't retreat!"
Chapter completed!
