When Zhao Jun sent troops, he didn't think he could capture the counties and counties guarded by Chu soldiers, but he didn't expect that although the Chu army took down Xue County and other places, they only left dozens of soldiers.As soon as the 4 troops of Zhao State arrived, the Chu soldiers fled back in a hurry. This made the Zhao people overjoyed. go.Along the way, those Chu soldiers were finally overtaken by the menacing Zhao people. They rose up to resist and fled desperately, and finally let one of the soldiers escape with serious injuries to Xiang Yu's army who was attacking Linzi.

But the Zhao people were finally stopped by the army of Chu State in front of Jibei County.The number of the Chu army stationed in Jibei County is only 3000, and many of them are slightly or seriously wounded. Originally, Xiang Yu left them there to allow them to recover from their injuries. Unexpectedly, they now But it became the vanguard of Zhao Bing.

Seeing that the two counties had been bloodbathed by the Chu soldiers, the envoy of Qi was furious, and repeatedly asked Lian Hai to kill all the Chu people.After Lian Hai sent troops, he had already made up his mind to wipe out the Chu army in Qi State.Because since the war with the Chu people has already started, there is no need to show mercy. If one more Chu soldier is killed now, there will be one less hostile Chu people in the future.So even if there were [-] wounded soldiers defending the city, Zhao Guo's army would attack with all their might, trying to annihilate them all.

After Xiang Yu and the generals heard the words of the Chu soldiers who came to report, their expressions changed.Xiang Yu had always looked down on Zhao State, whose capital Handan was almost captured by Qin State. In his mind, since the Zhao people could not even defeat the Qin people, they naturally did not dare to provoke Chu State, a powerful force that could defeat Qin's [-] troops.But his idea was wrong. Zhao Guo not only provoked Chu State, but also joined forces with Qi people to attack him.

After hearing the news, Xiang Yu had already recruited all the soldiers who were still attacking the city, and then discussed the current situation with everyone.Xiang Yu looked at the full account of the generals seriously and said: "What should we do now? It seems that Jibei County can't hold it anymore. How many people should we send to stop the Zhao people?"

"If you send fewer people, you can't stop Zhao's attack, but if you send more people, I'm afraid the Qi people in Linzi City will take advantage of the opportunity to send troops. In my opinion, we should give up attacking Linzi City and attack Zhao with the whole army. People." Xiang He pondered for a moment.

"But seeing that the city of Linzi is about to be destroyed, it is really not reconciled to lead our troops back like this. And once our army retreats, the people of Qi must know that when they chase after them, our army will still be attacked by the enemy." A general said.

His words were exactly what Xiang Yu thought in his heart. After listening to them, Xiang Yu nodded repeatedly and said, "You are right. The result of our retreat is actually the same as now. Then what do you think we should do?"

The general was affirmed by Xiang Yu, he was determined, and thought for a moment: "In fact, Linzi City is about to be captured by us now. If we can capture Linzi before the Zhao people arrive, we may be able to take these Zhao troops as well." Eliminate here."

Xiang He thought carefully and said: "The general's words are unreasonable, but this requires us to take down Linzi city as soon as possible. I wonder if the general thinks we can take down Linzi within a few days?"

Xiang Yu stood up and walked outside the tent, looked at the city of Linzi not far away, thought for a while and said, "I think this city can be taken within three days."

"How does the general have such confidence?" Xiang He asked in puzzlement.

"Because of their actions!" Xiang Yu pointed his finger at the Qi soldiers who were fighting at the top of the city.

Everyone followed his fingers and saw that the Qi people were carrying the bodies of dead soldiers. From their actions, it seemed that the Qi army was exhausted.

"But isn't the general afraid that the Qi people will fight to the death?" Xiang Ta continued to ask, because he knew that once he pushed people into a corner, he would often burst out with great potential.

"I haven't finished my words." Xiang Yu patted Xiang He on the shoulder, "I didn't plan to send troops to attack the city two days ago, but I also wanted to pretend that our army was about to retreat, so that the Qi army could have hope. But on the third day, we will launch a fierce attack on it. Once the will of the Qi army is relaxed because of our illusion, when our army suddenly attacks suddenly, the army will be in chaos, and then we will take down this Linzi city with ease."

After listening to Xiang Yu's analysis, Xiang he found it very reasonable, and he couldn't help admiring him: "I didn't expect the general to use his troops so well. The last general actually underestimated the general. I just hope that the Zhao people will come back in three days, otherwise our army will be in a bad situation." gone."

In this way, under Xiang Yu's order, the Chu army began to make the illusion that they were about to retreat, and they no longer attacked Linzi City.This made the Qi army in Linzi city greatly relieved.They are already waiting for the Chu army to leave, and those with strategic vision have already begun to deploy a counterattack when the Chu army retreats.No one in the city thought that the Chu army would attack Linzi City with all its strength, and the defense force in the city began to relax.The soldiers defending the city were exhausted after the battle of the previous days, and they just wanted to rest for a few days, and wait for the Chu soldiers to retreat before taking revenge for the previous days.

Everyone rested like this for two days. On the third day when the Qi people wanted to come, the Chu army should have everything ready and then retreated.So they are also ready to open the city gate at any time and hunt down the Chu army.

But what they waited for was the screams of killing, and the Chu army launched an attack on Linzi City at dawn.Every Chu soldier rushed forward. There were less than a few hundred Qi soldiers on the city, and their bows, arrows, stones and trees were not ready. They could only watch helplessly as the Chu army rushed to the city and quickly built the ladder.At this time, the Qi army guarding the city woke up and hurriedly picked up a few bows and arrows and shot down, but this could no longer stop the Chu army's attack.

The Qi soldiers guarding the city hurriedly passed the news in. At this time, the generals of the Qi army who were waiting to kill the Chu army realized that they had been tricked by the Chu people. The defensive weapons that had been removed were brought up again.

But at this time, the morale of the Qi army was as weak as Xiang Yu expected. After resisting for a while, the city wall was breached by the Chu army. Army attacked.The Qi army had to retreat while fighting. Following their legs, the Chu army occupied the entire city of Linzi.Then the Chu army ran down and opened the city gate and lowered the suspension bridge. The Chu army waiting outside also rushed in and launched a more violent attack on the Qi army.

Xiang Yu rode on a black horse and dashed left and right, and the general in front of him only killed him, which made him very excited.But then he realized that the people of Qi were still organizing resistance, because the speed of the Chu army on the road to Qi Palace was much slower than other roads.So he took his own soldiers to kill there, and he wanted to smash the last resistance of the Qi people by his own bravery.

After the city was broken, the people of Qi knew that they had no choice but to fight to the death, because Xue Jun's lessons learned from the past were vivid.So not only the Qi soldiers resisted the Chu army, but even the people in the city who could take up arms fought against the Chu army.Xiang Yu can be regarded as paying off his debts for the crimes he committed in Xue County and other places.

But the combat effectiveness of the Chu army is much higher than that of the Qi army after all, not to mention the common people, so they can only hinder the Chu army for a while and cannot really resist them.An hour later, the Chu army had arrived in front of the Qi Palace. This magnificent palace was an eye-opener for the soldiers of the Chu army, but what they wanted in their hearts was to attack the palace and rob property.

Just when the Chu army was about to take down the Qi palace in one go, there was a sudden cry of killing outside the city, and Zhao's army arrived at this juncture.

When the Zhao people used their absolute advantage to attack Jibei County, they encountered unexpected resistance.Although there were only 3000 Chu troops defending the city, they blocked the Zhao army with their lives for two days, which made Zhao people unbelievable.As a result, all three thousand Chu soldiers in the city died in battle, and none of them escaped.

After taking down Jibei County, the Zhao people rushed to Linzi overnight without taking a rest, but they were still a step too late, and Linzi City had already been broken by the Chu army.But when the Zhao people came to the gate of Linzi City, they were not blocked by the Chu army like the previous counties, because the Chu army had all rushed into the city.So they also honestly and unceremoniously went to the city to kill.

The people of Qi were already in despair, but they suddenly found that Zhao's reinforcements had suddenly killed them, and their dead hearts came back to life again, and launched an attack on the Chu army with their last strength.

Chu Jun never imagined that the victory was about to come, but someone came from behind, and he panicked for a while.The armies of the Three Kingdoms fought together in Linzi city.

However, the morale of the Chu army has plummeted, and they are gradually no longer the opponents of the Qi and Zhao armies.After Xiang Yu followed Xiang Ta's suggestion, he began to gather his troops and retreat towards the city gate.At this time, the armies of Qi and Zhao have already taken their place.The Zhao State traveled a long distance, and it was a tired army, and the Qi army only mustered its last strength. After the Chu army withdrew from the city, the armies of the two countries stopped pursuing and let the Chu army retreat.

But even so, the Chu army still suffered heavy losses, with less than 2 horses left in the [-]-strong army.Xiang Yu had never suffered such a disastrous defeat. He was very unconvinced, and after he settled down in the exit city, he said, "Unexpectedly, Zhao Jun would arrive in time, otherwise Qi State would be wiped out by me. Let's talk about what we should do next." what to do?"

Xiang Ta was also injured in many places. While bandaging the wound, he said: "Now our army has been defeated, and the enemy's numbers are far greater than ours. The only way now is to retreat." The generals also said Agree with his comments.

Xiang Yu looked at the wounded generals, and knew that he would not admit defeat this time, so he said: "Then our army will withdraw from the range of Linzi City before dawn to prevent the enemy from pursuing."

When the Qi and Zhao armies rested all night and were about to go out of the city to launch the final blow to the Chu army, they found that there was no one from Chu outside the city.
