Chapter 295 Xiang Yu, surrender!

Xiang Yu never expected that things would unfold in such a way.

He is ready to die!
There is a net outside, and it is impossible for him and his injured uncle to escape.

But with the advantage of the location in the courtyard and his bravery, he also has enough confidence to tear off a piece of Qin Jun's flesh.

But he didn't expect that Zhao Si would not send anyone in at all, but chose the simplest way.

set fire!

Either wait to be burned to death, or rush out to be pierced by thousands of arrows, or surrender, there is no fourth possibility.

Holding the halberd in his hand, Xiang Yu felt powerless when he saw the rising smoke and the gradually spreading flames.

Xiang Yu, in the final analysis, is also a human being.

The mighty power from nature cannot be resisted by human beings, the fire is coming, even if he is Xiang Yu, he will still be burned to ashes.

It's clearly an inevitable end...

With so many people under Zhao Si, even if Xiang Yu came one by one, he would eventually be exhausted, but Zhao Si refused to let Xiang Yu die in battle.

For Zhao Si, the soldiers of the Qin army are also human lives, and he does not need to use the lives of soldiers to pile up Xiang Yu's heroic life.

There is no need to prove anything in this way.

"membership……"

Compared with Xiang Yu's resentment, Xiang Liang's eyes were extremely calm after being shot by an arrow.

"Pull out the arrow for me." Xiang Liang smiled and handed the long sword to Xiang Yu.

"Uncle... Qin Jun is by your side, now pluck out the arrow..." Xiang Ji hesitated.

Xiang Liang didn't speak any more, he took back his long sword on his own, cut off his arm abruptly, and used his fingers to pull the arrow out of the flesh, blood began to flow uncontrollably.

"Uncle! What are you going to do!" Seeing this, Xiang Yu hurriedly tore off his clothes to cover Xiang Liang's wound, but the blood still gushed out uncontrollably.

"Ji, uncle is going to die today, I don't want to die with Qin's arrows in my body." Xiang Liang shook his head.

"Even if you have to die, you should die in battle. Jiangdong men never lead their necks to be slaughtered!" Xiang Yu held his uncle's arm.

"Uncle, I'll take you out!" Xiang Yu's eyes were full of firmness and resentment.

"There is a crossbow chariot of the Qin army waiting outside. You have no armor. Even if you are brave, you may not be able to kill a Qin soldier." Xiang Liang shook his head.

Xiang Yu didn't speak, but silently watched the flames soaring into the sky.

"Ji, let's surrender." Xiang Liang spoke in silence for a moment, his voice a little hoarse.

"I bear the responsibility of murder and train soldiers for Yin Tong. The King of Qin will not let me go, but you are different. You will be demoted to a slave at most, but you will survive." Xiang Liang said in a deep voice.

"A real man only dies standing up, but never born kneeling. I won't surrender!" Xiang Yu shook his head.

"Does uncle think that I am afraid of death?" Xiang Yu looked at his uncle.

"Ji, you were brought up by me. I know your courage better than anyone else. No one in the world can match your bravery, but you are not brave enough!" Xiang Liang shook his head.

"Death is easy."

Xiang Liang stabbed the long sword on the ground.

"Back then, my father, your grandfather, the general of the Chu State, killed himself with this sword after he was defeated by Wang Jian." Xiang Liang sighed.

"And now, I will also pick up this sword to bear the responsibility of defeat, and you can do the same." Xiang Liang shook his head.

"This is the easiest thing in the world. You only need to swing the long sword." Xiang Liang looked at the long sword in front of him playfully.

"The state of Chu has always believed that if a defeated person cannot kill himself in gratitude to the king, it is the most shameful thing, the most courageous rat, but I think that the person who dares to survive is the one who is truly courageous." Xiang Xiang There was some sadness in Liang's eyes.

This is the tradition of the Chu State. Whenever the main general is defeated, he must kill himself as an apology, and the process of killing himself is strictly in accordance with the etiquette process, so the king will not hold him accountable for his fault.

It is precisely because of this that Chu people are famous all over the world for their courage.

Xiang Liang was also deeply affected and proud of it, but when he was unswervingly working hard on the road of opposing Qin and restoring the country, Xiang Liang gradually began to feel that this might not be a good thing.

The state of Chu couldn't tolerate a failed general, so it was doomed to the continuous decline of talents.

No one is born without failure...

The state of Qin is powerful, and those young heroes who fought against the state of Qin were defeated and killed themselves because of military strength, logistics and various factors, which is the most regrettable.

Li Xin conquered Chu and buried 20 elites of the Qin State. The King of Qin was able to face it calmly. Even Li Xin's request to apologize with death was severely rejected by the King of Qin.

Xiang Liang saw many things during his hibernation, and he also thought about many things clearly at the end of his life.

"Qin..." Xiang Liang sighed.

"The general trend of Qin's dominance of the world is irreversible. The King of Qin dominates the world, and all the princes submit to him, denouncing and denouncing him, but no one dares to disobey the will of the first emperor. The Qin State is too strong. It's not for the purpose of opposing Qin and restoring the country, but hoping to make the king of Qin reward them with some food that can survive by clamoring.

If there are really people in the world who have the courage to dare to oppose Qin in such a situation, then I think you are the only one left! "Xiang Liang looked at his arm, which was still bleeding continuously. The blood had spread along his arm to his lower limbs, soaking his robe.

"Uncle Xiang has always been cowardly and weak. Once I die, the Xiang family will definitely bow down in front of the King of Qin. If you die together with me, when uncle Xiang Tong dies of old age, the Xiang family will kneel down in front of the King of Qin forever and become the king of Qin. Hawkdog, there is no possibility of standing up again.

The king of Yue can live on his salary and taste his courage. I can only entrust the Xiang family to you! "Xiang Liang felt a little dizzy and lost more and more blood, and he couldn't speak clearly.

"People without great courage can't do this kind of thing. I can only leave it to you, Ji, sing for me." Xiang Liang pulled out his long sword silently, and then adjusted his figure to the direction of the Chu Palace.

Then, according to the etiquette of slaying oneself, perform the ceremony of kneeling and worshiping.

He tried his best to wear his clothes neatly, but unfortunately, the people of Qin had set fire to him, and he had lost too much blood, so he didn't have time to change into a clean dress.

He stood up straight and looked in the direction of the King Chu's palace. The long sword was not wiped clean, and he was a little rude, but there was nothing he could do. He believed that the late King Chu and the ancestors of the Xiang family would forgive him for his helplessness.

A horizontal sword on the neck!

Swipe!

The long sword cut across the throat, and Xiang Liang tried his best to control his body to fall in the direction of the motherland at the last moment of his life.

Fortunately, the last step was barely rude.

Xiang Yu watched all this silently, and sang the ballad of Chu State for his uncle, but the voice was a little silent. He adjusted his uncle Xiang Liang's body and put it in order, looking at the blood on the ground and the rushing blows. Firelight and smoke, he sat down slowly, put the halberd aside, his eyes flickered and blurred.

Outside the courtyard, the soldiers had already prepared bow and crossbow chariots and were ready for battle!
"It took so much kerosene, why don't you let me enter and fight!" Fan Kui muttered to the side.

Zhao Si looked at the flames and smoke all over the sky, and when he heard Fan Kuai's muttering, he just smiled and didn't say much.

It is true that a lot of kerosene was used, otherwise there would be no way to ignite a big fire in a short time.

Objectively speaking, if you look at the price, the precious kerosene may really be more expensive than a few human lives.

But if he really rushed in and faced Xiang Yu, he might consume far more than a few lives.

According to historical records, the desperate Xiang Yu killed hundreds of Han troops and forty or fifty soldiers at the last moment of his life.

Han Xin's 10 people in ambush on all sides could allow Xiang Yu to lead [-] cavalry to successfully break through.

To be honest, Xiang Yu cannot be overemphasized.

If it weren't for the gunpowder technology tree of this era that hasn't come out yet, Zhao Si wouldn't mind the cannon firing at his mother at all.

Setting fire is the easiest way.

Once Xiang Yu came out, all arrows were fired.

In such a situation, Zhao Si knew that even he had to simply kneel down.

Although the method of setting fire is immoral, it is safer and can avoid losses to the greatest extent. Anyway, it is the Xiang family's property that was burned, so Zhao Si didn't feel bad at all.

In history, Xiang Yu still set fire to Afang...

As for whether Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu would come out and surrender, that was not something Zhao Si had to consider.

"Xiang Yu...after all, he is still a human being." Zhao Si looked at the flames soaring into the sky, feeling inexplicably emotional.

According to the character of the overlord of Western Chu in history, I am afraid that he would rather be burned to ashes than come out and surrender?

The Chu people are so heroic, and the folk customs are here!

Regarding integrity, Chu people have never lost at all.

Zhao Si looked at the only way out that was shrouded in flames and was barely safe.

Although he didn't have much expectations for Xiang Yu and Xiang Liang's surrender, Zhao Si still set up a survival channel when the kerosene was ignited.

However, as the fire spread, this survival channel was about to be shrouded in flames.

Wait a little longer, even if Uncle Xiang Liang wanted to surrender, he would not be able to get out, and could only be burned alive inside.

Zhao Si watched as the smaller and smaller survival channels were gradually engulfed by flames.

"after all……"

Before Zhao Si finished speaking, he saw a figure striding out of him.

Holding the body of his uncle Xiang Liang horizontally, Xiang Yu stepped out of the flames steadily.

The soldiers who were waiting in full battle subconsciously drew their bows and set their arrows.

"Don't shoot the arrow!"

Zhao Si waved his hand, he noticed that Xiang Yu was unarmored and unarmed!

Xiang Yu stepped out of the ferocious flames and laid the body of his uncle Xiang Liang horizontally on the ground. His immature face in his 20s showed a composure and determination that did not match his age.

"Sinner Xiang Ji, beg for surrender!"

Zhao Si opened his mouth!

Looking at Xiang Yu who was kneeling on the ground and Xiang Liang who was already dead, there was some surprise on his face.

Xiang Yu, down...
