Chapter 47
The Han army camp was in full swing.
The more than three thousand remaining soldiers of the Chu army were like crazy beasts, launching an extremely fierce attack on the Han army. The four thousand Han army guarding the barriers were obviously unable to bear it!
"Assault, assault, the whole army assault!"
In the back formation of the Chu army, Xiang Zhuang waved his long sword and was roaring wildly.
He was seriously injured, and Xiang Zhuang could no longer charge in the battle. He could only stay in the backyard to cheer for Jing Qian. Gao Chu and hundreds of personal soldiers shouted and cheered, and loudly encouraged the Chu army to step up the attack. At this moment, Xiang Zhuang was also red. The Han army in front of the barrier was obviously out of support. As long as the Chu army worked harder, they could break the barrier and kill Liu Bang!
"Behead Liu Bang! Behead Liu Bang! The men of the Great Chu, who will make contributions today, kill Liu Bang!"
The bright red blood was gushing out through the bandage of the wound, but Xiang Zhuang didn't notice it at all. He just raised his sword and shouted and roared towards the barrier ahead, like a crazy tiger.
"Kill Liu Bang!" Jing Qian responded wildly, slashing over the Han army commander in front of him with one knife.
"Kill Liu Bang!" Gao Chu shot out an arrow, and a military marquis in the Han army fell.
"Kill Liu Bang!" Hundreds of sharp soldiers waved the thick-backed single-blade ring-headed sword, and howled forward. Under the increasingly fierce attack of the remaining soldiers of the Chu army, the Han army that had been struggling to collapse. First, a few people turned around and fled, then dozens and hundreds. After a while, the remaining more than three thousand Han troops ran away.
After all, these Han troops were just the civilians whom Xiao He forced to recruit from Guanzhong. After all, they were not Liu Bang's personal soldiers, nor were they like the Chu army's remaining soldiers opposite. They were determined to be either you or I died. After all, the Han army was just fighting for military merits, while the Chu army's remaining soldiers fought for survival!
In order to survive, people can fight to the death!
But if you can earn military merits, you have to have the life to enjoy it.
#############
On the walls, Liu Bang was so anxious that he jumped straight into the air.
"Don't run, don't run, come back, come back all of them..."
Although Liu Bang's voice was almost hoarse, no one heard it, and no one paid attention to him. Looking at the Han army's defeated soldiers who were fleeing in all directions under the barrier, Liu Bang suddenly fell into an ice cave. It's over. It's over. How could he stop the remaining soldiers of the Chu army like a tiger and wolf with just this simple barrier and only 800 personal soldiers? It's over, it's over!
"Swish!" Amid the shrill scream, another heavy wolf-toothed arrow broke through the air.
"Du!" Fortunately, a doctor was quick-eyed and quick-handed, carrying a big shield in front of Liu Bang.
Liu Bang, who was still in shock, quickly shrank his body behind the big shield, looked back at Zhang Liang and Chen Ping, and lamented tragically: "Zhang Liang, Chen Ping, my life is over, my life is over!"
Zhang Liang and Chen Ping also looked bleak, and they all reached this point. Even if they had the talent of heaven and earth, they would not be able to transform into a 100,000 army. What they could do now is to guard and wait for assistance. Fortunately, the police call had already sounded, and most of the Han troops and princes around them had already received news. The reinforcements should be coming soon, right?
#############
On the rugged mountain road, Han Xin was leading 8,000 elite troops to advance rapidly.
"Quick, speed up! After rushing to the Han King's camp within half an hour, I will definitely receive a reward!" Han Xin urged the horse to move quickly while shouting loudly. To be honest, he didn't like fighting in the mountains because the mountainous terrain was too complex and there were too many uncertain factors. The Battle of Jingxing was also the mountainous terrain, and Han Xin relied on taking risks to win in the end!
Nowadays, Han Xin has many soldiers and generals, but he no longer needs to take such a strange risk. According to Han Xin's meaning, Liu Bang did not need to come to this wild mountain at all. He just sent Peng Yue or Ying Bu to lead 100,000 troops to guard the mountain pass. When the weather returns to warm, snakes and insects are rampant in the mountains, mosquitoes and flies are growing, and the remnants of the Chu army naturally collapse.
Han Xin also advised him, but Liu Bang didn't listen at all.
The King of Han was still anxious, he was too anxious.
#############
Ying Bu was neatly dressed and was about to leave the tent to order troops, his adviser Ma Ye suddenly came uninvited.
"King, are you planning to lead troops to rescue the King of Han?" Ma Ye asked.
Ying Bu nodded and said in a deep voice: "The Han King's camp was attacked by the remaining Chu soldiers. The Han King had already called for help, so I all set up a large army to rescue him."
Ma Ye said: "But I heard that King Liang only sent three thousand people."
"Huh?" Ying Bu said in surprise, "Peng Yue only sent three thousand people?"
Ma Ye nodded and said, "There are only three thousand people, but they are just Liu Kou's tiger and wolf camp."
"Bird!" Ying Bu groaned and said disapprovingly, "What a tiger and wolf camp, just the three thousand bandits of Liu Kou, I can destroy him with just a turnaround. Peng Yue, the old boy, only sent three thousand people, must have no good intentions."
Ma Ye nodded and said, "I heard that Fan Yang Kuai Che is not favored by the King of Qi, and now he has already defected to King Liang. The King of Liang has mostly listened to Kuai Che's slander, so he came up with this bad strategy. However, the king cannot learn from him. The King of Han still needs to save him, and the troops cannot be too small. However, this road is not easy to walk, and the king cannot go too fast."
"What's this mean by sir?" Ying said, "Rescue is like putting out a fire. How can you do if you don't want to?"
"King!" Ma Ye had no choice but to say, "The King of Han must save him, but he cannot really save him!"
"Okay, okay." Yingbu suddenly had a head bigger than two, and he waved his hands repeatedly, "Sir, you have to arrange the King of Han again, and it's just a little bit of a mess. My ears are almost heard. Okay, I won't talk much nonsense to you, so I'll leave." After that, Yingbu turned around and left the tent.
#############
The Zhou Yin army was stationed fifty miles away, so the latest news that the Han king was in danger was received.
"Father! Something big happened!" Zhou Huan made great strides and said to Zhou Yin panting before he could see the ceremony, "The remnants of the Chu army are attacking the Han King's camp. The Han King has already called out the roar to ask for help from all the princes!"
"What did you say!" Zhou Yin was startled and said in disbelief, "The Chu army is attacking the Han King's camp?"
"Yeah!" Zhou Huan said in an inexplicable tone with boxing, "I really didn't see this Xiangzhuang before. He led thousands of remaining soldiers and dared to attack the Han King's camp!"
Zhou Yin then became silent and slowly sat back on the table.
Zhou Huan said again: "Father, should we send troops to save the King of Han?"
"We are too far away, and most of the time we go, we will not be able to catch up with the war there." Zhou Yin said this and said, "However, we still have to go there. Otherwise, if the King of Han escapes this disaster, he will definitely resent you, my father and son when he turns back. In addition, the King of Han did not trust you, my father and son very much, the situation will be even worse. You bring five thousand elite soldiers and set off quickly."
"No!" Zhou Huan bowed and took the order.
#############
"Attack!" Xiang Zhuang roared a long sword, and ten Chu soldiers carried a large wooden stake and rushed towards the barrier gate.
Another dozen Chu army soldiers held up the large Han army shield he picked up, and formed a tight shield wall on their heads and sides, covering the ten Chu army soldiers who were carrying the wooden blocks. There were also more than a dozen Chu army soldiers following behind with shields. Once casualties occur in front, they are ready to fill the gap at any time.
Arrows and wooden rocks fell from the barriers one after another. In less than a moment, the shield wall built by the Chu army was filled with dense arrows. Six or seven Chu soldiers were hit and fell into a pool of blood. However, soon, the Chu soldiers following behind pushed the gap they left behind, and finally rushed to the front of the barrier gate!
"Boom!" The bumping wood finally hit the barrier gate heavily, and the soil and dust suddenly fell down.
"Retreat, retreat, retreat..." As the trombone of the leading school, more than a dozen Chu soldiers retreated one after another, and then strode forward with the shrill trombone of the school. The heavy hitting wood hit the gate and hit the barrier. More than a dozen Han soldiers standing behind the gate were instantly shocked to the ground.
Above the barrier, Liu Bang yelled loudly: "Populate the tincture oil, pour the tincture oil!"
Not far from Liu Bang, several large pots of hot turbulent oil were already boiling. Four Han soldiers came forward and raised two pots of hot turbulent oil to strode directly above the barrier gate. With Liu Bang's roar at the top of his lungs, the hot turbulent oil had suddenly poured down from the barrier. The Chu army Ruis hiding under the shield wall was immediately scorching.
"Set the fire, set the fire quickly, burn them to death, burn them to death!" Liu Bang stamped his feet repeatedly and yelled repeatedly.
More than a dozen torches were thrown off the barrier, and the fierce tinder oil stained on the shield wall of the Chu army's sharp soldiers immediately started to burn. In the blink of an eye, a sea of fire outside the barrier gate was completely formed. More than 30 Chu army soldiers responsible for hitting the door were swallowed up by the raging fire in an instant.
Seeing this tragic scene, Xiang Zhuang's heart almost dripped with blood!
These more than thirty Chu soldiers are the elite among the elite!
"Attack again!" Although Xiang Zhuang's heart was bleeding, he never retreated and raised his sword and roared angrily.
"Damn it, you, you, and you, hurry up and carry the wooden stakes over there!" Jing Qian roared, and then roared at Gao Chu, "Old Gao, put on a shield, I will kill them directly and kill their fierce tinder oil first!" The fierce tinder oil has always been a great enemy to attack the city. If you don't burn it, you don't know how many people will be burned to death if you want to open the door.
"Okay!" Gao Chu focused his attention and immediately brought dozens of Ruiz to set up a shield.
The so-called shield frame is actually dozens of Chu soldiers holding large shields to build a slope upward slope on their heads. Chu soldiers can rush up along the slope and finally jump up to the barrier! Although the height of the shield frame is less than one meter, soldiers with over-legged strength can still jump onto the barrier. After all, the barrier is less than two meter high.
When Jing Qian held up the torch and was about to rush up, a soldier behind him snatched his torch.
"Kaozi?" Jing Qian was stunned for a moment, then shouted angrily, "Han Xiaodao, come back for me!"
