Chu and Han contend for the throne

Chapter 1 The Battle of Gaixia

"Woooooooo..."

The distant and long sound of the horn came faintly from the front, Xiang Zhuang slowly raised his head, and saw a big purple banner rising slowly from behind the low mountain ridge in the north, followed by a large stretch of endless The forest of long halberds, that piece of cold blade almost wants to reflect the cold and dark sky.

What appeared after that was the raging crowd.

Thousands of soldiers, boundless, tens of thousands of soldiers, earth to sky!
Hundreds of thousands of Qi soldiers gathered into an endless purple wave. Under the guidance of the big purple banner, they rolled down the low mountain ridges and rolled forward. It was within the range of the Chu army's bed crossbow, but the light soldiers of the rear army were still rising endlessly behind the mountain ridge.

Xiang Zhuang licked his chapped lips, feeling a strange bitterness in his heart.

It's Han Xin, Han Xin has arrived, and he finally rushed to the Gaixia battlefield with the army of Qi State!
At this moment, Xiang Zhuang felt unprecedented despair, the defeat of the Chu army is doomed!
Speaking of which, the current Xiang Zhuang is actually not the real Xiang Zhuang. The real Xiang Zhuang should have died in a certain battle not long ago. The current Xiang Zhuang is just another soul borrowed in his body Forget it, the soul of a veteran nicknamed "The Butcher" came from more than 2000 years later, and the butcher had almost forgotten his original name.

However, the fate of the butcher is really not very good. It is unlucky enough to travel to the troubled times of the end of Qin Dynasty. It's long gone, the battle of Gaixia has come to an end, it's already at this time, what else can he do?What else can you do but wait to die?
Assist Xiang Yu to complete the Jedi counterattack?Don't be kidding, that's delusional.

If Xiang Yu was a hero worthy of assistance, Liu Bang would have been killed by him long ago. How could today's Gaixia battle come about?
Look at the lineup of the coalition forces that are hostile to Chu, Liu Bang, Han Xin, Peng Yue, Yingbo, Zhang Liang, Chen Ping... just thinking about it makes one's scalp tingle! "The Butcher" never thinks that he can beat these ancients, even if he is a time traveler, even if he has 2000 years of knowledge, and there are countless classic battle examples that can be used for reference in the history books.

Therefore, following Xiang Yu can only lead to a dead end, so escape?That is also a dead end!
Liu Bang is not a good man and a believer in women, he will never let go of any of Xiang's direct descendants, the "butcher" is now Xiang Zhuang, Xiang Yu's younger brother, and Xiang Yan's direct grandson!Even if he fled to the remotest corners of the earth, even into the desert, most likely he would not be able to escape Liu Bang's murderous hand. How could Liu Bang be easy to deal with when he was able to become the emperor from a rascal in the market?

Under the big purple banner, Han Xin, wearing a white robe and armor and riding a white horse, slowly raised his right hand.

In an instant, hundreds of commanders galloped along the marching line from the front to the rear: "Your Majesty has an order, stop advancing!"

"Your Majesty has ordered you to stop advancing!"

"Your Majesty has ordered you to stop advancing!"

"Your Majesty has ordered you to stop advancing!"

The orders were issued one after another, and the hundreds of thousands of men who were moving forward slowly stopped.

Amidst the chaotic sound of horseshoes, Guan Ying, Cao Shen, Li Zuoche and other generals crowded behind Han Xin.

"Your Majesty, let's make a stronghold." Li Zuoche stepped forward on his horse. He is the grandson of Li Mu, a famous Zhao general, and he has a lot of strategy.

Han Xin turned a deaf ear to Li Zuoche's suggestion, just squinted his eyes slightly, watching the Chu army waiting in front of him without saying a word.

Suddenly, an imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of Han Xin's mouth, and then he raised his right hand again, stretched out his index finger and pressed lightly forward, and said lightly: "The big banner sends an order, the whole army will attack!"

As soon as this remark came out, Guan Ying, Cao Shen, Li Zuoche and other generals suddenly turned pale with shock.

The order from the big banner means that the whole army will attack, and even a tentative attack is avoided?
"Your Majesty, don't do it!" Li Zuoche hurriedly stopped him, "Our army has just gone through a long march, and the soldiers are extremely exhausted, and their footing is not stable, so how can we rush to a decisive battle with the Chu army?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, let's fight another day."

"Your Majesty, why not let the last general lead the left army to attack."

Guan Ying, Cao Can and other generals of the Qi army also stepped forward to dissuade them.

Han Xin waved his hand lightly, and repeated in a calm and unquestionable tone: "The big banner sends an order, and the whole army goes out!"

A moment later, the horns in the Qi army's formation changed abruptly, from long and long to loud and passionate. In an instant, hundreds of thousands of Qi army soldiers rushed forward like a flood that broke the embankment.

##########
Seeing the whole army of Qi State attacking in the distance, there was an uproar in the Chu army.

Xiang Zhuang couldn't help taking a deep breath, Han Xin, as expected of Han Xin, the army dared to launch an attack when it first arrived, and it was a general attack by the whole army as soon as it came up, not even a tentative attack!
Han Xinbing's soldiers are really like an antelope hanging horns, no one can find them!
Looking back suddenly, Xiang Zhuang's eyes fell on the majestic man next to him.

The man looks majestic, his eyes are like lightning, he is more than eight feet tall, and his crotch is extremely handsome. He is holding a big iron halberd, which is one foot and eight feet long!
Xiang Yu, he is Xiang Yu, the Overlord of Western Chu!

Seeing the Qi army's massive attack, Xiang Yu was furious: "Son Han Xin, how dare you be so arrogant!"

It is impossible for Xiang Yu not to be angry. He has always been conceited and never puts heroes in the world in his eyes. Now Han Xin is uncharacteristic. Extremely, with Xiang Yu's pride, how can he bear it?

After finishing speaking, Xiang Yu suddenly turned his head back and said to Xiang Zhuang, "Third brother, send an order from the big banner, all the troops attack!"

"Brother Wang, you can't do it!" Xiang Zhuang knew very well that Han Xin was very powerful. His accomplishments in commanding a large army were unmatched in ancient times, and few people in later generations could defeat him. Wouldn't it be great if the Chu army fought against him? court death?At that moment Xiang Zhuang persuaded, "Brother Wang, our army is short of food and food, and it is not suitable to fight again. Before the coalition forces have completed the encirclement, retreat quickly."

"Shut up!" Xiang Yu said angrily, "Hurry up and deliver the order, or you will die."

"Promise!" Xiang Zhuang's heart was awe-inspiring, and he immediately gave the order for the whole army to attack. In an instant, [-] Chu troops, led by the big yellow banner, faced the Qi army tit for tat.

Xiang Yu immediately dismounted from his horse and, holding the big iron halberd, rushed to the Qi army's big flag on the opposite side.

##########
The middle army of the Qi army saw that Xiang Yu personally led the Chu army to launch a tit-for-tat attack on the Qi army. Han Xin couldn't help showing a faint disdain, and said, "Xiang Yu is just a fierce fighter after all."

Guan Ying, Cao Can, Li Zuoche and other generals are facing each other, Gu Moran, in the whole world, I am afraid that only the king of Qi dares to say that, the 20 elite frontier army of the Great Qin Empire was defeated by Xiang Yu's "fight fiercely" ?A hero like Liu Bang, the king of the Han Dynasty, was defeated many times by Xiang Yu, the "man" and wiped out his entire army?
##########
The two armies advanced against each other, and within a moment they had already collided with each other, and the front of the two armies suddenly turned their backs!
Xiang Yu was so powerful that he swept the halberd with both hands, and the dozen or so Qi soldiers standing in front of him fell to the ground one after another, and all the long halberds they held in their hands were broken on the spot!
A commander of the Qi army relied on his strength, and while swinging his halberd to capture Xiang Yu, he shouted: "Xiang Yu, die!"

Xiang Yu was stunned, and suddenly opened his mouth wide and roared at the commander of the Qi army. The sound was like thunder, like a mountain avalanche. Collapsed.

"Hahaha!" Xiang Yu raised his head to the sky and laughed three times, and once again danced his halberd and rushed forward frantically, no one could stop him for a moment.

Behind Xiang Yu, Xiang Zhuang led [-] sharp men to follow him to the death. The attack arrow composed of these [-] sharp men was like a sharp boning knife, and it drove into the front of the Qi army in one fell swoop.

##########
In the middle army of the Qi army, Li Zuoche showed a dignified expression, and said to Han Xin: "My lord, Xiang Yu really deserves his reputation. In just a short time, his striker almost broke through the front of our army!"

Han Xin said indifferently: "The battalion of dead soldiers moves forward to meet the former army!"

##########
In front of the formation of the two armies, the Qi army's infantry wearing light armor and holding long halberds suddenly retreated like a tide, and a large group of light soldiers wearing kudzu clothes, slanting their hair in a bun, and holding short knives appeared in front of the Chu army. before.

Xiang Zhuang's eyes froze for a moment, and he shouted at Xiang Yu: "Brother Wang, a dead soldier of the Qi army!"

"Dead men?" Xiang Yu said coldly, "Let them become dead!"

The next moment, Xiang Yu had already abandoned the big iron halberd, and rushed into the Qi army's dead soldiers with a sword in one hand.

"Death!" The two dead soldiers of the Qi army guarded their swords behind their backs, and coldly faced Xiang Yu's sword with their chests. A dead soldier is a dead soldier. In order to kill the enemy, they will never be stingy with their lives!

But it's a pity that what they faced was the number one hunk of all time——Xiang Yu!
In the blink of an eye, before the two dead soldiers of the Qi army drew out the short knives hidden behind them, the big sword in Xiang Yu's hand swept across the necks of the two with a dazzling cold light. The ferocious human head was thrown high immediately, and the two headless corpses rushed forward, but the dagger hidden behind them could not be handed out again.

Xiang Yu beheaded the two men with a single sword, and two more dead soldiers of the Qi army arrived. Before he could return the sword, Xiang Yu suddenly slammed his shoulders forward. The two dead soldiers of the Qi army had no time to react. broken.

Witnessing Xiang Yu's supernatural power, the sharp soldiers of the Chu army who followed him cheered like a tsunami.

On the other hand, the dead soldiers of the Qi army on the opposite side were all shocked. The dead soldiers were not afraid of death, but they were afraid of dying in vain. Their death also required a price. When they found that their death was priceless, they would also shrink back.

##########
In the middle army of the Qi army, the expression on Li Zuoche's face changed from solemn to horrified, and he said to Han Xin in disbelief: "Your Majesty, the battalion of dead soldiers can't stop it, it was broken by the troops led by Xiang Yu!"

"I see." Han Xin said indifferently, "Change the pawn formation."

##########
In front of the formation of the two armies, the dead soldiers of the Qi army in Ge clothes and holding short knives retreated like a tide.

Xiang Yu raised his bloody sword, pointed at the faintly visible banner of the Qi army, and was about to say a few words of encouragement to the sharp soldiers of the Chu army who were following behind him, when suddenly there was the sound of orderly and heavy footsteps behind him. Turning around sharply, I saw countless Qi army infantry wearing iron armor, iron helmets, and holding shields had already rushed over at a neat pace.

"Military pawns!" Xiang Zhuang shouted awe-inspiringly, "Brother Wang, it's the Qi army's pawn phalanx!"

The so-called military soldiers are actually heavy infantry in full armor, created by Wu Qi, a famous general of Wei State!
According to historical records, after the soldiers of Wei were trained into an army, they fought in the north and south under the leadership of Wu Qi. After 72 battles, 64 of them were victorious, and the rest were tied with no defeat!
The state of Qin, which was adjacent to Wei, suffered greatly from it. In the battle between the Yin and Jin Dynasties, 50 Qin troops were defeated by [-] Wei soldiers, causing a large area of ​​land to the east of Huashan to fall. As a result, the population of Qin State dropped sharply and its national power declined. Qin Xiaogong won Quliang and was ordered in the face of danger, which led to the later Shang Yang Reform and Qin Shihuang's swallowing of the six kingdoms!
The military pawns were famous, but Xiang Yu was fearless and said, "Let's see how Gu can break it!"

After all, Xiang Yu exchanged his sword for the big iron halberd, and immediately swung the big halberd around his head and rushed into the formation of Qi army soldiers.

Although the soldiers of the Qi army were protected by heavy armor and shields, all of these were useless in front of Xiang Yu, who was capable of carrying a tripod. Zhuanghe's eight hundred soldiers took advantage of the situation to cover up the attack, and they were unstoppable. Although the soldiers of Qi resisted desperately, they were still killed and retreated steadily.

##########
In the middle army of the Qi army, Li Zuoche's face changed even more, and he said to Han, "Your Majesty, soldiers can't stop Xiang Yu!"

Han Xin looked up at the big purple banner above his head, and then looked down at Xiang Yu, who was almost in front of him, and then calmly ordered: "The big banner retreats, all armies fight and retreat."

All the generals changed their faces when they heard the words. The two armies were constantly fighting. The most taboo thing is to retreat. It is okay to say that when the number of troops is small, once the number of troops exceeds [-], it will be difficult to maintain effective command of the various armies and ministries while retreating. Therefore, if you are not careful, the whole army will be defeated, especially when facing a hero like Xiang Yu, you should be more cautious.

General Cao Shen gritted his teeth, and stepped forward to persuade: "Your Majesty, think twice. At this time, the enemy and our armies have been strangled together. If you suddenly order to retreat, it may lead to the defeat of the entire army!"

The cavalry general Guan Ying also said: "Yes, Your Majesty, you can't retreat!"

"It doesn't matter." Han Xin waved his hand, and repeated lightly, "Send the order, the big banner retreats."
