The Summoning World of the Great Qin Empire

Chapter 880
In the ancient army, there were many kinds of arrows.The arrows that people in later generations are familiar with are naturally the arrows with an inverted triangle shape or a diamond-shaped blade, but the arrows that Xiang Yu is using now are crescent arrows.

What is Crescent Arrow?
The arrowhead of the Crescent Arrow resembles a crescent moon, and the inwardly concave part of the arc is the arrowhead. The original use of this kind of arrow is not to kill the enemy, but to shoot down the local military flag and deter the enemy.

The reason why Xiang Yu chose this kind of crescent arrow now is because after the crescent arrow hits the Shu army on the tower, it will not pass through the body, but will fly out directly with the person shot.

Only a person with inexhaustible strength like Xiang Yu can come up with such a way to kill the enemy. Every time a sword is shot, the person who is shot will not pass through the body because the arrow is in the shape of a flat crescent. It will shoot that person into the air, and knock the person behind him into the air.

"Let's break open the city gate and follow this king to conquer Shangyong, a dangerous place!"

"attack!"

"attack!"

"attack!"

After so many people died, they finally reached the bottom of the city wall, and the ladder began to stand up. The top of the ladder was equipped with iron hooks, which could hook the walls and make the ladder more stable.

Xiang Yu held his bow at the bottom of the slope, and the Shu army who was shooting did not dare to show his head.

Anyone who dared to look up was immediately shot by Xiang Yu, so the Chu army immediately attacked the tower. Seeing that the city was about to be broken, there was a loud roar from the tower, which made the soldiers on the entire battlefield pause.

Li Yuanba rode his horse to the top of the city tower, and with a chain on his head, the beating drum, urn and golden hammer swung towards the outside of the city wall, and immediately broke the ladder.

For a moment, the soldiers of the Chu Army fell down like dumplings.

Xiang Yu fired his bow several times in a row, but Li Yuanba blocked the arrow with a golden hammer beating a drum and urn on the tower!

At this moment, the Chu army turned from an advantage to a slight attack, and those Chu troops who were not afraid of death and killed on the tower, but because of Li Yuanba's chained drum beating urn golden hammer smashed the ladder, they were immediately killed. Cut off the way back, no matter how fierce he is, but in the face of Li Yuanba who is like a wolf and a tiger, what can he do?Wasn't he being hammered to death and smashed into the air, falling down from the tower!

"Is it possible to bully no one in our army? Let's see the widows go to battle in person!" Xiang Yu's eyes were tearing, seeing so many Chu soldiers alive and dead, both eyes were about to bleed.

"boom--"

Soon, the Shu army in the city repeated the old trick, throwing the kerosene tank outside the city tower again, and then shot it to pieces with arrows. Xiang Yu saw it, only sighed, and angrily shouted: "Retreat!"

If they don't retreat, these soldiers of the Chu army on the slope will turn into ashes.

The army retreated, and the soldiers in the army brought a huge human head to Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu gritted his teeth even more when he saw it. What kind of giant man is there? It's clearly a pig's head!
Naturally, it can't be seen from a long distance, but when it's close, the pig's head has been cut off and the snout has two big ears, so it can be seen no matter what.

"If you don't break Shangyong, you will never withdraw your troops!"

Xiang Yu ordered his subordinates to rectify the army, and then sent someone to the Xiaodao Pass to inquire about the war. It turned out that the head was fake, so Ji Bu and Ju Mac were naturally safe and sound.

"Your Majesty, a letter sent by Mr. Yingdu Xiangguo himself!" Just as Xiang Yu was furious, Xiang Sheng held a letter and delivered it to Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu could only suppress the anger in his heart, opened the letter and read it carefully. After reading it, the anger in Xiang Yu's heart disappeared, and he looked at Xiang Sheng with a smile instead.

Xiang Sheng was taken aback by Xiang Yu's inexplicable expression, but he didn't dare to offend, so he took a step forward and called out in a low voice, "Your Majesty...?"

"Xiang Sheng!"

As soon as Xiang Sheng's words fell, Xiang Yu shouted in a deep voice.

Xiang Sheng immediately cupped his hands and said, "The end is here!"

"Reward the three armies, continue to attack the city tomorrow, and try it with your people tomorrow." Xiang Yu said meaningfully, but the sound did not notice the chill in the depths of Xiang Yu's eyes at all, just cupped his hands and said: " The final general will definitely do his best to take down Shangyong!"

"Shangyong is Xiongguan, and there are powerful generals like Li Yuanba stationed in the city, so if you want to take it down in a short time, there is no objection." Xiang Yu said coldly.

Xiang Shengli didn't dare to speak at the side, but heard Xiang Yu say: "Tomorrow when you lead the army to attack the city, first go fast, then slow, and then go fast, I will order someone to set up a platform outside the city tower, so that we can observe Shangyong City, maybe we can find a way to break the city."

"Your Majesty, Shengming!" Xiang Sheng bowed his hands and stepped back, not having any doubts about what Xiang Yu said.

Not long after, the people who went up the trail to attack the trail pass also returned.

Ji Bu, Ju Ba and others were ashamed and bloody, and when they approached the Wang tent, they knelt down on the ground and mourned: "The last general is incompetent. He failed to capture the pass of the trail. He is willing to be punished."

Big Mac, Ji Xin and the others even lowered their heads, not daring to speak.

Xiang Yu said: "Get up, go back and wash it first, the widow is hosting a banquet, and you will all come later."

"Chen..." Ji Bu felt like a knife was twisting his heart, he really hated the terrain of the trail, the inability to break through was not due to carelessness, it was because the terrain was too difficult.

"Victory or defeat is a common thing for soldiers. Only a tyrant will kill his generals because they are not good at attacking the city. I know that you have worked hard to attack the city, so naturally I will not blame you. Go back and appease the soldiers. Change the bandages to bandage the wounds. Wait a while At the banquet, we are full of food and drink, and tomorrow our army will concentrate on attacking Shangyong, and then you and I will sit on the general platform with you and see what method we can use to defeat Shangyong."

"Here!"

All the people retreated, went back to the army tent, appeased the soldiers in the army, washed and rested for a while, and then came to the king's tent.

Sure enough, Xiang Yu had already held a banquet to make many generals eat and drink well. He only explained at the banquet that in the next day, the soldiers under Xiang Sheng's command would attack the city. Flaws, and then take down Shangyong City Yunyun in one fell swoop.

A general in the army picked up Xiang Yu's broken tiger-headed panlong halberd, and told Xiang Yu whether to forge it again.

Xiang Yu held the two truncated war halberds in his hands, and hissed endlessly: "This war halberd was made for me after the incident in Kuaiji. Uncle found a stranger from Wuzhong for me and made it for me. I never thought that it would break today. It really hurts my heart. I heard that there was a man who loved weapons more than his own life in ancient times. After the weapons were damaged, he built a military grave for the weapons. You took five soldiers and dug a deep pit and buried them. , plant a sycamore tree on top of this soldier mound to entrust the widow's affection."

After hearing this, the general didn't dare to say anything about remelting and forging the weapon, but just pushed it out.

Under the candlelight, Xiang Yu reopened the letter sent by the Prime Minister Guan Zhong from Yingdu, read it through the candlelight, and the coldness in the tiger's eyes was extremely strong.

"puff--"

Gently ignite the letter, and then turn it into a fly ash in front of the desk...

It is said that in the middle of the night, a meteor suddenly fell from the sky and landed on Tianlong Mountain, which was [-] miles away from the camp of the Chu army. The meteorite was so heavy that it almost knocked down the top of Tianlong Mountain.

The sound was naturally grand, not only the Chu army who was forty miles away heard it, but also the Shu army in Shangyong City naturally heard the sound.

Li Shimin and Xiang Yu woke up from their sleep almost at the same time. The former thought it was an earthquake and the city wall collapsed, while the latter thought it was the Shu army coming to attack the camp at night.

After rushing out of the military tent, he looked to the east forty miles away, where the red clouds were all over the sky, and a large area of ​​flames could be vaguely seen rising into the sky.

"What is that!" Xiang Yu asked, and the soldiers guarding outside said:

"My lord, I just saw a meteor fall from the sky and hit that place."

"Where is that?" Xiang Yupo felt strange and asked.

After looking at it, the soldiers turned to Xiang Yu and said, "I heard from the local people that it is called Tianlong Mountain. According to ancient legends, a Tianlong was suppressed here, so it got its name."

Xiang Yu looked thoughtful, and then said, "Where is Xiang Han?"

A martial artist with thick eyebrows and big eyes came out, bowed his hands and said, "Your Majesty!"

Xiang Yu looked at Tianlong Mountain in the east and said: "Whenever there is a major change in the world, God will always make some kind of omen. I heard that the first emperor was 36 years old, and he kept his heart in confusion. A meteorite fell in Dongjun. He wrote a letter saying that the first emperor died. As for the division of land, after the death of Yingzheng, the land was divided as expected, and the princes of the world rose together. Yesterday, the few people were not able to attack the city. The tiger head and the dragon halberd, which they carried with them, were broken under Li Yuanba's pair of golden hammers for beating drums and urns. At night, meteorites fell. , During this period, is it possible that there is God’s will Zhao Ran? You immediately lead an army of five hundred, go over and check, what is it, and there must be no mistake.”

After Xiang Han heard this, he quickly took the order and rushed towards Longshan that day with five hundred soldiers who were good at running.

It didn't take long for Xiang Han to arrive here. It happened that there was a village at the bottom of Tianlong Mountain. There were about a hundred families in the village, and it was considered a big village.

Xiang Han asked, "The meteorite just fell from the sky, do you know where it is?"

Originally, when the meteorite just fell, its brilliance soared to the sky, so it could be seen clearly, but when Xiang Han led the people here, he couldn't see where it was.

The head of the pavilion cupped his hands and bowed: "The falling stone fell on the top of Tianlong Mountain that day, and the upper part was broken. If the general wants to find it, my subordinates will call for people."

"No need." Xiang Han waved his hands impatiently and said: "Our army has already brought enough people, you can find one or two people who know the way, and lead the way. My Great Chu is a big country above, and I will definitely not disturb the people. To find out."

When the pavilion chief heard what Xiang Han said, he said, "It's just to lead the way. Do you need others? The lower officials can lead the way for the general."

With that said, the pavilion chief lit a torch and led Xiang Han to look for the meteorite.

And I don't know whether the meteorite falling from the sky is a blessing or a curse, and I can predict what will happen next. Please listen to the next chapter to break it down.
