    In Handan City after the war, the strong smell of gunpowder smoke did not dissipate quickly, and fires could still be seen burning in some places in the city.

    From time to time, there were some painful groans, which were from some wounded soldiers who were not dead but seriously injured.

    On the street, you can see countless corpses lying in various directions, or lying on their stomachs.  Even some corpses were not complete, and disemboweling them was a trivial matter. Some corpses were broken into several pieces during life or death.

    Among them, some corpses stared angrily, even if they died, they would not close their eyes. Their eyes were open, as if they were looking at the world, with nostalgia and resentment.

    War is always accompanied by death, and here, at least tens of thousands of people have turned into resentful souls.  Only a small part of them actually died as soldiers, and the greater number were innocent ordinary people.

    Handan City is the largest city in Handan County and one of the few large cities in the Central Plains.  Hundreds of thousands of people live here.  Originally they could live and work in peace and contentment and have children.

    But because of the war, tens of thousands of people fell into a pool of blood.  Some were affected by the flames of war, but more were hacked to death during the confrontation between the Qin Army and the Korean Army and were unable to evacuate in time.  In such a situation where people are red-blooded, whether it is the Qin army or the Korean army, they will not care whether you are a commoner or not. They only know that if you are not one of their own, they will be killed!

    ??Whether it is the Qin Army or the Han Army, for this city.  They are not from their own family, so they have no scruples at all about the people here.  As long as you can kill the opponent, even if you kill a thousand people by mistake, you will not let anyone go!

    Along the way, I looked at the wailing people around me, including soldiers.  There are also common people.  Although the fighting has stopped, it is still unknown whether these people can survive.  The slightly injured one is doing fine.  Some seriously injured people may even survive if they cannot receive quick medical treatment.  It will also result in at least one disability.

    But in this era, there is no universal medical treatment. Doctors are even rarer than gentlemen in this era.  A few doctors are also searched by some high-level people. For people at the bottom, if they can find a barefoot doctor with a little bit of medical knowledge, they are considered lucky.

    But after every war, the mortality rate of those seriously injured often exceeds 90%!

    War kills people, but only a small number actually die in the flames of war.  More often than not, it is caused by disability that cannot be treated in time.  Of course, after being defeated and captured, he was trapped and killed.  This is also the case.

    "Damn Qin Dynasty's lackey! Come and accept your fate!"

    Turning a corner, suddenly a heartbreaking roar came from the front.  I only saw a severely injured soldier with a broken left arm in a Korean uniform. He held a bronze sword in his hand and stabbed a person on the ground fiercely.  Stabbed him in the chest.

    Poof!  The sharp blade completely ignored the thin leather armor and pierced the man's chest.  The man who was severely injured and weak and could not even stand up immediately started spitting blood.  Judging from his appearance, he was a soldier of the Qin Army, but he was too seriously injured and did not have time to evacuate Handan City.

    And the Korean soldier should have discovered him.  Then he made this move out of great resentment.

    But the next moment, a hint of ferocity flashed in the eyes of the dying Qin soldier, and he suddenly grabbed the Han soldier's neck, and then inserted a short sword directly into the latter's mouth that was opened wide because of the roar.

    The dagger penetrated directly through the head of the Korean soldier, and then both of them lost their lives at the same time.

    This is not the first time Liu Bang has seen people die in front of him.  But such a scene shook his heart severely.  Whether it was the one-armed Korean soldier or the dying Qin soldier, the two sides did not have any hatred for killing their father and taking away their wives, but they fought until the last moment.

    This is war, full of blood and fire, but more importantly, death!  It's hatred!

    It¡¯s just a word from a person in power, or a goal and ambition, but countless people devote themselves to the battlefield and throw away their lives for their ideas.  After each war, how many people become orphans and widowers?

    "In troubled times, all life is in ruins"

    Liu Bang muttered silently, thinking that his ability to accept things was relatively good.  It was also because of this in the beginning that after arriving in this era, I quickly adapted to it.  But the scene just now still touched him a lot.

    The era in which he was born, although not too peaceful, was at least far away from war.  It¡¯s not that there were no dead people, but the death of dozens or hundreds of people would be a sensational event.

      And tens of thousands of people?  It is estimated that except for natural disasters that occur once in a few decades, it will really never happen.

    But at this moment, in this city, at least tens of thousands of people are either dead or disabled, and many families have been destroyed.  The culprit that caused all this was not the Qin army, nor the Han army, nor Liu Bang.

    It¡¯s this world!  It¡¯s not anyone who is wrong, it¡¯s the world that is wrong!  Because the world is in chaos and we are in troubled times, it has become like this!

    There is only one way to change this situation!

    "I will bring an end to the troubled times, even if more people are bound to die in the process!"

    If before, Liu Bang participated in this game of world hegemony in which only a few people were qualified because of the ridiculous and naive reason of having many beautiful and lovely girls, then things have quietly changed now.  In that ridiculous reason, there is a hint of other factors.

    Regarding the appearance of Liu Bang's troops, some Korean troops in Handan City were somewhat nervous. After all, after a big battle, the number of Korean troops in Handan City that could still barely fight was less than 5,000, and most of them were still injured.  On Liu Bang's side, the eight thousand men and horses suffered almost no losses, and a few hundred men were only slightly injured.

    In this case, after seeing Liu Bang's people appear, one can imagine how worried the King of Han and others were.

    "Liu Bang of Chu State, pays homage to King Han."

    The King of Han did not refuse Liu Bang¡¯s visit.  In order not to make King Han too nervous, Liu Bang only brought a few hundred people into the palace.  The rest of the people stayed in Handan City. Of course, as long as something happened on Liu Bang's side, people outside would react immediately.

    As the saying goes, it is indispensable to let others go. Who knows what kind of person King Han is?

    "Are you that Liu Bang?"

    A dignified middle-aged male voice with a hint of surprise came into his ears. Liu Bang looked up and saw a white-faced man in his thirties but not forty years old, looking at him with strange eyes.

    Beside the man, I also saw a few people who looked somewhat embarrassed, but were trying to show off their superiority.  There were old and young, but Liu Bang ignored most of them with just a glance.  His eyes only looked at a few of them carefully.

    Except for the man who spoke, who should be the King of Han, an old man in his sixties made Liu Bang pay more attention, and he vaguely felt a familiar feeling.

    The old man was also looking at him at this moment, but then, the old man's eyes turned to Liu Bang's side, and then a glimmer of light flashed in his old eyes.

    "It's right down there."

    "Thank you so much, General Liu, for sending out troops to save Handan City from danger! I would like to express my gratitude here."

    He said words of thanks, but his tone and demeanor were like a reward.  Liu Bang frowned slightly. Although the other party was the King of Han, his status was similar to that of King Chu Huai of Chu State. In the entire world, in terms of status, he was probably at the top of the pyramid.

    But what kind of attitude is this?  When facing the benefactor who saved his life, he actually treated him with an understatement, no, even as if he was giving alms?

    Although Liu Bang was dissatisfied, he did not show it.  It was not like he had not known about these royal families and nobles who felt good about themselves during this period of time.  This group of people are inherently inferior, and there is no need to be familiar with them.

    After that, the two sides talked about some useless topics, which were nothing more than words on the scene.  King Han thanked the Chu State for its strong support, and praised the Chu State's righteousness several times. Bo Yuntian came to help.  But the rest is not expressed at all.

    There is not even any material gratitude, let alone other things.

    Liu Bang had a smile on his face, but no dissatisfaction broke out.  But in my heart, I scolded the King of Han from beginning to end. If a country led by such a person is not destroyed, is there any justice in it?

    Although he was somewhat disappointed, Liu Bang didn't care.  This time, his goal was basically achieved. He forced back Zhang Han, the famous general of the Qin Dynasty who was now at the top of his game. This would definitely shock countless people in the world.

    Of course, it also contains some factors of the Korean army. After all, if they and the Qin army were not consuming each other, Liu Bang and Zhang Liang's plan would not go so smoothly.  But even so, if Liu Bang could do all this with only 8,000 men, his reputation would definitely rise throughout the world!

    This is what Liu Bang needs!  Conquering the world not only requires military strength and financial resources, but also fame!  Now, Liu Bang's other two are still barely up to standard, but in terms of reputation, they are lacking.  But after this time, countless people will know Liu Bang's name in the near future!

    Forced to retreat from Qin Dynasty Zhang Han, this war effort?, you can even suppress that damn stinky woman Xiang Yu in a short period of time!  After all, although Xiang Yu had been victorious in every battle before, he had faced some three-legged opponents. But this time, Liu Bang faced a famous general of the Qin Dynasty!

    After this time, whether it is the people from the Chu State or other forces, they should all face up to Surabaya County and Liu Bang!

    "It's a pity that the damn King of Han didn't even get a cent!" Liu Bang was a little angry. He originally thought that because of the favor of saving his life, the other party would be mean. Suddenly, Liu Bang blacklisted King Han for future relationships. Such a supercilious look.  The wolf deserves to be exterminated in the end!  (To be continued)
