Chu and Han contend for the throne

Chapter 21 Heads-up (seeking a few recommendation tickets)
To the east of Shouchun City, the [-] Chu troops who had marched out of the city before had completed their formation.

Xiang Zhuang wore a black iron helmet on his head, straddled a black horse, held a big iron halberd in his hand, and hunted in the wind with a bearskin cloak on his back, like a god of war from the heavens. When the halberd was emptied forward, the five thousand Chu troops cheered like a tsunami.

Reining in his horse and turning his head, the five thousand Han troops had already approached within a thousand paces.

The next moment, the continuous sound of horns sounded in the formation of the Han army. Amidst the desolate and distant sound of the horn, two thousand armored soldiers of the Han army slowly moved forward. After setting up the formation, the formation flags were unfurled immediately, and dozens of riders leaped out of the formation. The first person, wearing heavy armor, was Fan Kuai.

Xiang Zhuang slightly raised the big iron halberd in his hand, and the cheers of the five thousand Chu troops stopped abruptly.

Only then did Xiang Zhuang urge the black horse to move forward slowly, and stopped when it was still a stone's throw away from the main formation of the Han army, and then sternly shouted: "General Xiang Zhuang, the great Chu general, is here, who dares to fight with me?" World War I!?"

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the five thousand Chu troops stamped their halberds on the ground, or struck their shields with their swords, and roared in protest.

In the opposite formation, Fan Kui frowned instantly, this little shrimp in Xiang Zhuang, riding a black horse and holding a broken iron halberd, did he really think of himself as Xiang Yu?However, such a small shrimp is not worthy of Lao Fan's personal action. Now Fan Kui looked back at the generals behind him and said: "Who dares to go out and take Xiang Zhuang's head?"

Sima Luohu of the other department came out in response and shouted sharply: "The young general is willing to go!"

After all, without waiting for Fan Kui to agree, he has already urged his horse out of battle, and came straight to Xiangzhuang.

In this era, when military commanders participate in large-scale melee battles, they will definitely choose foot combat, because horse combat consumes too much energy. For generals, a short horse battle will not cause their physical strength to be overdrawn.

Seeing a Han general going out to fight, Xiang Zhuang slightly raised his big iron halberd and galloped his horse to meet him.

The bitter new wind whistled past his ears, and the ground under his feet receded like a tide. In just a moment, Xiang Zhuang and the Han general Luo Hu had already crossed their horses. Luo Hui swept away, and the Han general, not to be outdone, rounded his iron halberd and swept towards him tit for tat.

Hearing the sound of "clang", the Han general Luo Hu suddenly flew upside down from his horse.

There was a burst of exclamation in the Han army formation, and Fan Kui couldn't help but widen his eyes. Sima Luohu, who was known for his bravery, was swept off his horse by Xiang Zhuang after only one fight?How can this be! ?Xiang Zhuang, this little shrimp, could it be that Xiang Yu has possessed him?Otherwise, how could it be so brave?

Cheers like landslides erupted in the Chu army formation.

Whether it's Huan Chu and Ji Bu who are straightforward by nature, Zhong Limei and Xiao Gongjiao who are resolute, or even Yu Ziqi who is always moody and angry, they all roared hysterically. Under the agitation of the blood of the soldiers, they thumped their own breastplate with their fists crazily, like wild beasts, bang bang.

In the distance, at the head of Shouchun City, Concubine Yu was watching the battle from a distance under the guard of Qin Yu. Seeing Xiang Zhuang's majesty, Concubine Yu couldn't help but recall Xiang Yu's demeanor, lord, lord, are you really dead?Concubine Yu wants to follow you under the Nine Springs, but Concubine Yu promised you that she must see the revival of Chu State with her own eyes...

Before the formation of the two armies, Xiang Zhuang had already caught up with the Han general Luo Hu who had fled in the desert. He shot Luo Hu with a single halberd in the back, and Luo Hu fell down on the ground and lay dead on the spot. Xiang Zhuang cut off Luo Hu's head with two halberds, The tip of the halberd was poked and then raised high into the air. In an instant, the five thousand Chu troops roared and cheered even more obsessively.

"The Chu army is mighty!" Xiang Zhuang raised his arms and roared angrily.

"The general is mighty!"

"The general is mighty!"

"The general is mighty!"

Five thousand Chu troops responded, and their morale was at an all-time high.

Xiang Zhuang threw the head of the Han general Luo Hu back to the front of the Han army.

When Fan Kui saw this, he was furious, thinking that at the Hongmen Banquet, he didn't even pay attention to Xiang Yu, who could lift mountains, so how could he be afraid of Xiang Zhuang, a small shrimp?Immediately Fan Kuai wanted to urge his horse out of the battle, but before he could do so, the fake Sima Gao Xian and Jiang Wei had already urged their horses out of the battle, and took Xiang Zhuang with their halberds.

"Good time!" Xiang Zhuang shouted, and immediately urged his horse to meet him.

When they were still a hundred steps away, Xiang Zhuang suddenly put his halberd in front of the saddle, and immediately drew a bow on the horse's back and set an arrow. He aimed an arrow in front of him, and hit the Han general Jiang Wei's throat, and Jiang Wei fell off the horse in response!General Gao Xian of the Han Dynasty was startled when he saw this, he thought that he alone was definitely not Xiang Zhuang's opponent, so he turned his horse's head and fled into the slanting stab.

Xiang Zhuang's horse was fast, and it only took a moment to catch up with Gao Xian after urging the Wuzhi horse.

With just one halberd, the blood splattered, and Han General Gao Xian's big head flew into the air.

Xiang Zhuang reined in his horse again, turned around, and savagely led forward with the blood-dripping iron halberd. The five thousand Chu soldiers immediately roared like mountains and seas. Many soldiers of the Chu army were emotionally agitated, and they simply tore open the battlements on their bodies. Robe, revealing the thick and dense chest hair, and then pounding his chest vigorously, while roaring wildly like a beast, its shape is so crazy to the extreme!
It took half a cup of tea before Xiang Zhuang slightly raised his left hand, and the roar and cheers of the five thousand Chu troops gradually died down.

Xiang Zhuang mobilized the black horse, stepped forward again, pointed at Fan Kui in front of the Han army with his big iron halberd, and said directly, "Fan Kui, man, do you dare to fight me!?"

"Xiang Zhuang's son, you are looking for death!" Fan Kui was so proud of his martial prowess that he didn't even fear Xiang Yu, so how could he put Xiang Zhuang in his eyes?He didn't fight before, he just didn't bother to make a move, now that Xiang Zhuang just beheaded a few young generals of the Han army and then flaunted his power in front of the battle, he couldn't hold back anymore, and now the flying horse came out and swung his halberd to fight Xiang Zhuang.

Xiang Zhuang's pupils shrank suddenly, and his heart felt even colder.

As the number one general under Liu Bang's command, Fan Kui's force is comparable to the few Han generals who had been beheaded before?At the Hongmen Banquet, even Xiang Yu was afraid of Fan Kui, how could Xiang Zhuang dare to be careless?

In all honesty, Xiang Zhuang really didn't want to single out Fan Kui!

As the commander-in-chief of the three armies, Xiang Zhuang should not have acted like this!
However, Xiang Zhuang had no choice. Today he had to fight Fan Kui in a duel. Not only did he want to fight Fan Kui, but he also had to win the duel!Only by winning this duel can Xiang Zhuang replace Xiang Yu as the new god of Chu, and only by winning this duel can Xiang Zhuang have a chance to replace Xiang Yu as the new spiritual pillar of the Chu army!

A country cannot survive without gods!

An army can never do without spiritual support!

Therefore, Xiang Zhuang must replace Xiang Yu, he has no choice!

In an instant, Xiang Zhuang's eyes became colder than ever before, how about Fan Kui?What about Xiang Yu?Immediately, Xiang Zhuang cut his halberd, let me ask the world, who dares to fight for the front! ?
"Kill!" Xiang Zhuang lightly urged the black horse, and faced Fan Kui like a storm.

In the blink of an eye, the two horses were close to meeting each other. The big iron halberds in the hands of Xiang Zhuang and Fan Kui collided fiercely in the air, and there was a fierce clang immediately, and then the two horses passed by, and Xiang Zhuang straddled The figure on the horseback remained motionless, but Fan Kuai's majestic body visibly wobbled, almost slipping off the horseback.

In the eyes of the soldiers of the Chu and Han armies, Xiang Zhuang clearly had the upper hand in this first round of confrontation.

In an instant, the soldiers of the Chu army cheered like a tsunami again, while the morale of the Han army became more and more low.

Fan Kui galloped his horse a hundred or ten paces away, only then slowly reined in his horse and turned his head, and when he raised his halberd to face Xiang Zhuang, Fan Kui's eyes finally showed a rare solemnity.

On the opposite side, Xiang Zhuang's heart was even more awe-inspiring!
He seemed to have the upper hand in the collision just now, but he was not. When the two halberds collided, the wild power rolled back, and Xiang Zhuang almost let go of the iron halberd. Until now, he still feels his arms are sore and his mouth is numb. Obviously, Fan Kui's physical strength is much stronger than him. If it weren't for the power of the stirrup, Xiang Zhuang might have fallen off the horse and lost!

However, even if Fan Kui's physical strength is far superior to him, he will definitely lose today!

Because Xiang Zhuang has stirrups, man and horse are united, [-]% of the force can be exerted to [-]%, but Fan Kuai can only rely on his legs to clamp the horse's belly, with no roots under his feet, and [-]% of the force can only exert [-]%. Long, the judgment is high and low, unless Fan Kui can kill Xiang Zhuang in the first round, otherwise, he has already lost in today's heads-up!

"Ha!" Xiang Zhuang urged the black horse again to meet Fan Kui, how could Fan Kui be willing to show weakness?
The two fought like a lantern for more than 50 rounds, and finally Fan Kuai was exhausted.

Xiang Zhuang, however, became more and more courageous as he fought, and urged his horse to kill back again. Immediately after a violent roar, the big iron halberd weighing more than 60 kilograms in his hand swept towards Fan Kui wildly and unparalleled with a piercing sound of piercing the air.

Fan Kuai's physical strength was overdrawn, and he couldn't lift his strength, so he had to parry with his halberd. He only heard a "clang" explosion, and Fan Kui's strong body flew backwards from the horse's back.

In an instant, the Chu army cheered loudly.

On the other hand, the Han army showed expressions of fear, and their morale fell to the bottom.

However, Fan Kui is Fan Kui after all. Although he fell off the horse, he has no fear, holding a dagger and wanting to fight a trapped beast. However, it is impossible for Xiang Zhuang to give him any more chances. It was a halberd thrown obliquely, and it hit Fan Kuai's breastplate. Fan Kuai's breastplate was completely shattered, and his body weighing more than three hundred catties (Han Jin) flew up like a kite.

After flying dozens of steps away, Fan Kui's body fell heavily to the ground, but this time he was fatally injured!
The front of the two armies suddenly became deathly silent. Whether it was the soldiers of the Chu army whose expressions were extremely excited, or the soldiers of the Han army whose morale had dropped to freezing point, they all opened their eyes wide and held their breath at this moment. On the entire battlefield, Only the heavy whirring of the black horse and the dull hooves of the horses were clearly audible.

Fan Kuai's body twitched twice, and then he struggled to sit up.

Xiang Zhuang slowly turned his horse's head around to get behind Fan Kui, then got off the horse, holding a halberd in his left hand and a sword in his right. The swords and halberds crossed and placed between Fan Kui's left and right necks. He turned around suddenly, his bloodthirsty eyes locked tightly On the opposite side of the Han army, there was a sound of breathing in the Han army formation, but the five thousand Chu troops were furious, and each of them roared until their voices were almost hoarse.
