Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Xiang Yu galloped on his horse, and his subordinates from Jiangdong followed closely behind him. Thousands of cavalry, a sweeping frenzy, and the sound of horse hooves like thunder and lightning, crushed all obstacles and headed towards the small city of Yongqiu that was in the wind and rain.  The earth trembled, the mountains collapsed and the ground cracked. The heroic warriors from Jiangdong sacrificed their lives for righteousness and crossed the river from Kuaiji to the north. Xiang Yu followed his uncle Xiang Liang and killed them all the way. They defeated the soldiers and horses from all the counties of Qin and fled.  Most of his fame is earned by him.  This made Xiang Yu, who had always been proud, even more arrogant.  "The people of Qin are just a bunch of idiots; the old man Song Yi dares to look down on a certain family." Xiang Yu led the army to come to the rescue after receiving an urgent call from Liu Bang, the commander of the Western Expeditionary Army.  The Chu army dispatched the most elite cavalry troops and tens of thousands of soldiers. This confrontation further exacerbated the inequality on the battlefield.  Li You¡¯s troops are too few.  After defeating Chen Sheng, Shaofu Zhang Han transferred the main force of Li Yuan's Sanchuan soldiers in the name of attacking Xiang Liang. The combat effectiveness of the remaining county soldiers dropped sharply. It would have been too late for Li Yuan's team to return if it had not been tasked with scouting.  , was also transferred to Dingtao by Zhang Han. In Dingtao, Zhang Han's opponent was Xiang Liang.  After Chen Sheng's death, Xiang Liang has become the new leader of the various anti-Qin armies in Guandong.  The weeds are lodging.  The strength of the Chu army is like this.  "General Xiang, you are so mighty!" Liu Bang and other princes, who had suffered a bloody blow at the foot of Yongqiu City, looked surprised and suspicious when they saw the appearance of the Chu army.  Xiang Yu's reputation has gradually spread with the Chu army's successive victories. Along with his bravery and good fighting achievements, there is also his untamed temper. Chu people are savage and aggressive. He will draw his sword if he says something wrong  Confrontation is common, but in a one-on-one fight, who is Xiang Yu's opponent?  With Xiang Liang suppressing him, Xiang Yu might not act recklessly. Now, without Xiang Liang, how could Liu Bang and others suppress Xiang Yu.  What's more, Liu Bang still couldn't attack for a long time. More than a dozen coalition forces and nearly 50,000 soldiers faced off against the Qin army of less than 3,000. They couldn't take a small city for several days. This made Liu Bang very embarrassed. However, this later generation  Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty's research on Houheixue had reached its pinnacle.  "It doesn't matter if you can't defeat Yongqiu. Please invite the more capable Xiang Yu to fight. As for being laughed at, it doesn't matter. I, Liu, have a foothold in the princes, relying on the network of connections to get both sides, not bravery."  "Kill!" The Wuzui horse stood upside down on its front hooves. Xiang Yu roared and pointed the halberd directly at the city. Facing the Chu army, it was the banner behind Li Yuan.  The soldiers of the Chu army abandoned their horses and ran towards the city wall. Arrows and crossbows filled the sky like locusts falling down. This time, the Chu army attacking the city did not hesitate at all. They risked being hit by rolling stones and hot oil and climbed up to the top of the city.  "Hey!" On the city, the soldiers of the Qin Army shouted one after another. Stones and wood were carried up one after another, and then quickly smashed down.  Li You had enough experience in defending the city. In the Battle of Xingyang, Wu Guang's troops had been besieged for several months, but they still could not let Li You and the Qin army in the city give up the city. Although the walls of Yongqiu were not as good as the fortified city of Xingyang, Li You still had confidence.  Withstood the first wave of Chu army's offensive.  Li You mistook Xiang Yu for Wu Guang.  No wonder he is, no matter how famous Xiang Yu is, he is still not as famous as Chen Sheng and Wu Guang who first raised the banner of rebellion.  The Chu army charged forward.  The law of the battlefield that Xiang Yu believed in was to use strong against strong. He did not like tactics such as roundabout ways and avoiding the real and taking advantage of the weak. Facing Li You who defeated Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, Xiang Yu was full of fighting spirit.  "Porphyry!" A burly Chu soldier was hit in the eye by a powerful arrow. The Chu soldier pulled out the three-sided arrow and continued to climb along the gap in the city wall with blood on his face.  On the city, a commander of the Qin Army saw that there was an advantage to be taken. He leaned out half of his body from the battlement and thrust a spear at the Chu soldiers. The sharp spear tip cut through the thin armor and embedded in the warm armor.  In the chest.  "Ah!" Amidst the screams, the Chu soldier reached out to hold the bronze spear and pulled hard, immediately pulling the unsteady Qin army commander off the city wall.  The two of them had a spear and fell under the city under the action of inertia. Before the fallen Qin Army commander could wake up, he was stabbed into a hedgehog by several spears.  Life for life, blood for blood.  In the face of the Chu people's desperate charge, the Qin army's defense line was crumbling.  The Qin army's military formation began to loosen, and the losses on the front line were increasing. Most of the subsequent reinforcements were new soldiers. After seeing the heavy casualties, the morale of the new soldiers began to drop. Some of the new soldiers standing in the front row  He began to look around in fear, and the timid one began to shrink back.  Li You on the city tower also saw the disadvantage. He was still using flags to mobilize the follow-up troops in the city, trying to control the increasingly unfavorable decline.  But his efforts were in vain. The Qin army guarding the city?They are just a second-rate army of soldiers. Their fighting will cannot be compared with the Qin field elites guarding the Great Wall. In the face of a smooth victory, they can have high morale and move forward indomitably, but in the face of a stalemate, hard and fierce battle, they  The gap begins to show.  First there were one or two auxiliary soldiers behind the formation, and then a single soldier on the edge of the front formation. More and more Qin soldiers retreated back, and fewer and fewer Qin soldiers continued to hold on to the city.  Li Yuan thrust out his spear and knocked down a Chu soldier who was climbing up desperately. He took advantage of the gap and exhaled hot blood.  The section he was guarding was located in front of the city gate and was under the greatest pressure. If he hadn't rushed to the left and right just now, the Chu army would have broken through several times.  "Marquis, on the left and on the right, the rebels are coming." Luo Jia's voice came from behind.  Li Yuan turned around and saw that the Qin army in black armor could hardly be seen on the left and right wings. Bright red patches appeared one after another.  The Qin army on both wings has collapsed, and it is useless to defend it any longer.  Li Yuan sighed in despair. In the face of the absolutely superior force, the resistance of the Qin army was just a flash in the pan. Li You could no longer gather much backup force. Otherwise, he would not have allowed the city wall to be captured by the Chu army.  In the midst of a heavy siege, if the city is broken, the entire army will be dead.  The Qin army was completely defeated.  Li Yuan led his troops to fight and retreat at the same time. Escape must also be strategic. Alternating retreats is the best way. On the contrary, giving up all the back to the enemy is the stupidest way.  "Uh ah" A shrill scream sounded behind him, almost right behind his head. Li Yuan struggled to pull the panting Luo Jia away, and turned back to meet the Chu soldiers who were approaching.  The bronze spear stabbed out quickly. Amidst the violent collision of weapons, Li Yuan's tiger's mouth was shattered by a huge force, and his chest felt tight. With such a tyrannical force, the enemy soldiers behind him were not easy to dismiss.  "The dragon is here, the enemy generals must stop leaving!" Amidst the shouts like thunder, Li Yuan saw an armored enemy general rushing forward with a knife.
