    Chapter 427 Blood-stained Yingtail

    "put!!!"

    "Boom! Boom! Boom!" Dozens of fireballs covered in kerosene flew out with a line of black smoke.  The fireball fell into the water, melted in an instant, burned on the water, and turned into a raging sea of ??fire.

    "Charge!" But the Han soldiers were not frightened by this, their resolute faces were full of fearlessness, and the troop transport quickly rushed towards the sea of ??fire.

    The Eastern Chu army could not help but be frightened by the momentum of the Han army, and the arrows that flew out were scattered and weak.

    "If it weren't for this favorable location, I'd be in trouble!" Shi Qi couldn't help but say something a little dejected.

    The deputy general next to him comforted him: "General, no matter how brave the Han army is! Can they still climb over this city wall? With the city wall blocking them, no matter how brave the Han army is, what's the use?"

    Hearing this, Shi Qi felt relieved and laughed loudly: "You are right! With such a favorable location, even if Yang Zilu captures Yingwei, he will not be able to expand the results!"

    "This is all due to your wisdom, General. You built the camp here in Yingwei in advance, otherwise today would not be so easy!" the deputy general complimented.

    Although Shi Qi didn't speak, the contentment on his face betrayed his inner feelings.

    It¡¯s just that Yang Zilu really doesn¡¯t know how difficult Yingwei is to capture?  No!  Just when Shi Qi's complacency had not yet faded, a soldier hurried over and said, "General, something bad has happened! Suddenly more than ten thousand barbarians appeared in the rear and came to kill him!"

    "How could this happen?" When the deputy general heard this, he was shocked before Shi Qi could speak.

    Although Shi Qi was frightened, he didn't panic yet. He knew it was useless to panic at this time.  "Who is here? Under what banner?"

    "Under the guise of the big Han Da Sima's tongue! It should be the tongue of the Han barbarians." Xiao Bing thought for a while and said.

    Shi Qi nodded, frowned and thought about a strategy to resist, but Shi Qi had not yet come up with a countermeasure.  Another soldier came to report, this time more embarrassed than the previous soldiers and covered in blood.  "The general is in trouble! The Han barbarians have broken through the camp and have already entered!"

    "What? How is it possible!" Shi Qi couldn't help being shocked. Although the defense of the Eastern Chu Army's rear was weak, they had erected wooden fences and dug trenches. There were also antlers at key positions. How could they be broken?

    But now it was obviously not the time for Shi Qi to think about this. Ji Yong was riding on horseback, with a spear in his hand, flying up and down, and led more than 500 cavalry in full armor to rush into the camp first, killing everyone along the way.  The Dongchu army was in disgrace.

    ??The Dong Chu army suddenly heard shouts of killing from behind, and found that there were actually Han soldiers in the killing camp. There was an endless stream of Han soldiers pouring in from behind, and they didn't know how many people came.  The Eastern Chu army was immediately in chaos and was attacked from both sides by the Han army.  It really happened that the house was leaking and it rained all night. The Eastern Chu army was in chaos, but the Han army had already set up a siege ladder to attack the city and establish a foothold.

    "The whole army is pressing forward!" Yang Zilu naturally refused to be polite to Shi Qi and waved the long knife in his hand.

    The sound of drums in the Han army's formation was moving, as if a thunderstorm was coming.  Tens of thousands of Han troops' mighty troop transport ships on the upper left rushed towards the other side.

    After all, the Eastern Chu Army is not a regular army. A considerable part of the Eastern Chu Army is from farmers and has only undergone a few months of training.  There are also some soldiers who were originally trained by Han Jiading but were recruited and surrendered by Shi Qi. These people have been brainwashed by the Han army.  Although I dare not say that everyone is die-hardly loyal to the Han army, there are still a few die-hard loyalists. Usually there is nothing wrong with them, but now they have become a fuse, detonating the powder keg!

    "Run away! Otherwise, you won't be able to escape!" Someone shouted.

    At this moment, everyone's nerves were tense. When they heard someone shouting like this, many people instinctively listened to this.  People all follow the crowd. Maybe not many people just started to listen to this, but the negative emotions it caused were huge.

    Thousands of Dongchu troops fled in fear. Although the number was large, as long as the commander was willing to order the killings, this decline could definitely be stopped.  It's just that Xiong Yiliao was brave and brave, but he didn't have much commanding experience, so he was stunned at this moment.  Without Xiong Yiliao's order, even if some generals ordered the killing of deserters without authorization, it would still be an individual incident and would have no impact on the overall situation.  Suddenly, thousands of people turned into tens of thousands.

    Shi Qi wanted to take over the command and change the situation, but at this time there was nothing he could do about it!

    The Han army was like rough waves on the sea, surging one after another on the broken boat of the Dong Chu army.  The only thing the boat could do was to make feeble moans again and again.

    Finally, under a huge wave, the Dongchu army finally collapsed and the entire army was defeated.  Yang Zilu ordered the Han cavalry to attack. Ten thousand soldiers had already arrived.The Han cavalry who were ready to go were like bears that had just hibernated. Their hunger made them more ferocious, opening their bloody mouths and killing the fleeing Dong Chu army.

    A strange scene appeared on the battlefield. Often a dozen Han cavalrymen were already chasing enemies several times their number, some even ten times their number.  The mighty cavalry of the Han army was raised on the banks of the Yingshui River, and the flags of the Eastern Chu army were scattered everywhere on the ground.  The flag that was respected by people in the past is now covered with chaotic footprints.

    Xiong Yiliao had already escaped, but seeing such a scene, he felt mixed with grief and anger, and ordered: "Go back! Today's defeat is my fault! I have no shame to go back to see my father and fellow villagers! Instead of being killed in shame, I should  It¡¯s better to die in battle!¡±

    "General! No! This battle was not a fault of the war. How could you commit suicide like this?" The driver of the car was shocked when he heard this.  He was Xiong Yiliao's retainer. After Xiong Yiliao died, it didn't matter whether he would be the emperor or a courtier, or whether he could be reused by Xiong Yiliao's son.  How can Xiong Yiliao's son have Xiong Yiliao's power?  This was a matter of the rest of his life, so Yushou naturally objected.

    "Although many of Confucius' words are stinky, one of his words is correct. A gentleman does something and refrains from doing something! I, Xiong Yiliao, want Yang Zilu to know! There are still warriors in Dongchu!" Xiong Yiliao glared angrily.

    Seeing Xiong Yiliao's resolute attitude, the driver couldn't help but sigh and turned the chariot around.  Xiong Yiliao suddenly said: "Wait!"

    "No!" When the driver heard this, he couldn't help but feel a glimmer of hope. Could it be that his lord has figured it out?

    It was just Xiong Yiliao's actions that shattered the hope of the driver. Xiong Yiliao jumped off the chariot and picked up a flag of the Eastern Chu Army covered with footprints. A large Chinese character Chu fluttered in the wind.

    "Kill the Han barbarians!!!" Xiong Yiliao stood as straight as ever, like a big mountain, full of solidity.
