Xiang Yu fights the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 45
Xiang Yu easily occupied the west gate of Chen Cang, and then let go of the gate to welcome a hundred elite cavalry outside the city to enter the city. At this time, the defenders in Chen Cang City also realized that something seemed wrong, but everything was over. When it was too late, Xiang Yu got on his horse and ran to Lei, and led a group of cavalry to charge towards the south gate of Chen Cang with his gun in his hand.

After Xiang Yu captured the west gate of Chen Cang, he lit the fire above the city gate, so that some cavalry from his south also began to detour and enter the city from the west gate. At this time, Bian Zhang also happened to stay in Chen Cang City. But he obviously didn't expect that Xiang Yu would come to the south of Chen Cang in such a sudden and silent manner, and even launched a surprise attack in the dark.

"General Bian, the west gate has been broken. There is a fierce general rushing forward. No one can stop him. He is heading towards the south gate. I'm afraid the south gate won't last long!" Not long after waking up, there was an unknown fire in his heart. He was just about to get angry with the adjutant in front of him, but when he heard that Xiang Yu had led the army into the city, he immediately felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on his head. All the anger was extinguished, and it even made him shiver uncontrollably.

"What did you say?" Bian Zhang's voice was full of surprise and even fear. "How could Ximen be breached so easily? What are you idiots doing?"

The adjutant hunched his head and didn't dare to look at Bian Zhang. He thought Bian Zhang was going to get angry with him, so he was ready to bear the anger, but there seemed to be no anger in Bian Zhang's tone. He was slightly taken aback, and then Said: "there is a secret passage under the west gate, few people knew about it at first, but that fellow was able to find such a secret place, but they attacked and snatched the west gate."

"It's trash! Trash! Absolute trash!" Bian Zhang finally got angry. He picked up a bundle of bamboo slips and threw them at the adjutant in front of him.

At this time, another spies reported from outside the gate, saying that the south gate was already in danger at this time, the soldiers in the middle saw only the flickering fire in the darkness, and the leader rushed out a man in his twenties The young tiger general rode a black horse on his crotch. He was extremely fast and fierce. He held a long spear in his hand, and no one could stop him. Several guards who were originally very brave fought with him, but the results were all insignificant. They were beheaded one after another in the round, and other people around did not dare to step forward after seeing them.

When Bian Zhang heard that there was such a powerful general who looked like a god descending from the earth, he didn't have the slightest desire to resist, so he called the adjutant to his side and quietly discussed with him the strategy of escape.

Not long after, Bian Zhang took dozens of cronies and horses around him and took advantage of the night to leave Chen Cang's north gate and headed straight to the west. He will be cut off from the food road. At this moment, he has only one thought in his heart, which is to run as far as possible. After all, he only has one life. If he stays in the green hills, he will not be afraid of running out of firewood!
Just as Bian Zhang led a group of people in embarrassment and ran out of the city gate north of Chencang, he saw some faint fires in the distance to the north.

Fortunately, he made a prompt decision and made the decision to escape as early as possible, otherwise he might not be able to escape if he wanted to escape a little later. He immediately ordered everyone to extinguish the torches in their hands, and then fled towards the west with everyone's heads. .

But he said that the troops coming from the north were none other than the two thousand cavalry led by Sun Jian. After encountering Sun Jian's troops, they surrendered directly. It was almost dawn at this time, and the sound of cock crowing from the city could even be heard from a distance.

After Sun Jian led the army into the city, he discovered that Chencang City had already been occupied by Xiang Yu. Sun Jian couldn't help but look gloomy when he saw this. A good thing, he accepted Xiang Yu's invitation and came to the mansion in the city to discuss with Xiang Yu.

Seeing the strange expression on Sun Jian's face, Xiang Yu didn't say anything, but took the initiative to toast Sun Jian, and said that Sun Jian led his troops to come in time. He shook his hands and left the mansion, Xiang Yu was not angry when he saw this, he just asked someone to bring out good wine, and had a big drink with all the soldiers.

After Sun Jian left, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became. Early the next morning, he led two thousand cavalrymen under him out of the east gate of Chencang City, planning to strike first. He will take the lead in the matter of the grain road in the east, and at least he will make some military exploits so that he will not fall behind Xiang Yu.

In fact, Sun Jian has been a soldier all his life, and he is not a person who has no guts at all, but it is also strange to say, I don’t know if he is in conflict with Xiang Yu, anyway, after seeing Xiang Yu, he felt very uncomfortable. At first, he really felt that It is impossible for Xiang Yu to have much ability at such a young age. He underestimated and looked down on Xiang Yu, but he was defeated by Xiang Yu head-on, and he was still defeated in front of so many people. My heart couldn't help becoming a little twisted.

Now he is completely in a state of anger, and he has to find an opportunity to get the place back. Originally, he thought that attacking Chen Cangcheng this time was a very good opportunity for him, and he even chose to be here. He launched an attack on Chen Cang that night, but it happened that Xiang Yu was a little bit late, just a little bit late.

Although he was a little surprised that Xiang Yu captured Chencang City so easily, he still thought that if he arrived earlier, he would be able to capture Chencang more easily than Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu was just lucky!

Xiang Yu didn't appear to be in such a hurry. After he captured Chencang City, he spent three days drinking and chatting with the soldiers, and he didn't care at all about Sun Jian leading the army to leave. In his opinion, since Sun Jian chose to lead the army to the east And go, then he will lead the army to go west.

Although Han Sui's main force was unable to come back in time in the east at this time, the number of the rebels was in the tens of thousands. It was just because their front line was quite long, so the front and rear were somewhat out of touch. Still have some strength.

And Xiang Yu is actually waiting for an opportunity these days. On the one hand, the soldiers were very tired from the rapid march a few days ago. Situation of the rebels to the west.

Until this day, judging from the information obtained by the spies, the rebels in the west did not seem to have any plans to recapture Chencang, which surprised Xiang Yu. He actually did not expect that Bian Zhang was in this battle. Having been beaten by Xiang Yu completely without courage, he did not dare to attack Xiang Yu easily. Instead, he was prepared to stick to the city, and was ready to guard against another surprise attack by Xiang Yu from his army. After all, he was suddenly awakened in the middle of the night and found The enemy has already approached the city, and even took down the city where his army was stationed in less than a night. Who can bear it?
