Chu and Han contend for the throne

Chapter 42 The Only Chance

The sky finally brightened, and the tragic and long night finally passed!

Suddenly, there was a sudden rustling sound in the dead reed field, and immediately the closest clump of reeds moved without wind, and was pulled away forcefully, and Gao Chu, who was covered in blood, bent down and got out from inside.

Gao Chu carefully inspected the surroundings, and found that there was no sign of Han soldiers within a few miles, so he turned around and made two old noises towards the depths of the reeds. The reeds began to move automatically in the absence of wind, and amidst the continuous rustling, figures emerged from it one after another.

Xiang Zhuang was the last one to get out of the reeds, and he let out a long sigh of relief until he stepped on the ground.

Now, the crisis is finally lifted temporarily, and the lives of nearly [-] remnants of the Chu army in Xiangzhuang are finally saved!

However, this does not mean that the remnants of the Chu army are safe. In fact, they are far from out of danger!

Commanding a large army of tens of millions of people to carry out field battles, Han Xin is the most powerful. It can be said that he uses ingenious schemes and tricks, setting endless traps, trapping, exhausting, and annihilating the enemy invisibly, but Zhang Liang is the most powerful. horrible!How could it be so easy to escape the trap set by Zhang Liang and avoid Zhang Liang's calculations?
Not to mention anything else, but all the mountain passes around must be guarded by Han troops!
Also, although the two groups of Han army pursuers have been lured away by Huan Chu and Ji Bu, by noon today at the latest, the elite Han army who followed and killed them will definitely see through the truth!At that time, hundreds of scouts would swarm out to search all over the mountains and plains. At that time, where could the remnants of the Chu army hide?
You can't dig a hole to hide, or fly to the sky, right?
I'm afraid that the tragedy of yesterday will be repeated in the end, and I will attack all the way until I am exhausted and overtaken by the pursuers, and I am defeated!

"General, someone is coming over there!" Jing Qian, who was guarding the front, suddenly shouted, "It's the Han army!"

"Huh?" Hearing this, Xiang Zhuang hurriedly climbed up the mountain ridge, and sure enough, he saw a group of Han troops approaching here. The number of this group of Han troops was not large, there were about a hundred people, and dozens of people were still in custody. , the dozens of people all had their hands tied behind their backs, and their clothes and armor were soaked in blood, and it was unknown whether it was someone else's blood or their own blood.

Xiang Zhuang's heart suddenly hangs, that is probably a captured Chu soldier!

As soon as Xiang Zhuang waved his hand, nearly [-] remnants of the Chu army quickly retreated into the reed marshes.

But this time, Xiang Zhuang didn't dare to let the remnants of the Chu army go deep into the reeds. He didn't want to take another risk, and the Han army coming from the front was only more than a hundred people. You can also kill them with a backhand, even if you escape a handful of fish that slipped through the net, that's okay, anyway, the situation will not get worse than it is now!

Gongsun then dragged his heavy legs, moving forward step by step.

Bright red blood continuously gushes out from the wound on the forehead, flows down the cheeks, and finally drips on the Ge Yi battle robe. The Ge Yi battle robe, which should be khaki, has long lost its original color , the patches of stains are all dried blood, some from the Han army, and some from himself.

Recalling the fierce battle last night, it seems that it has been a long time ago.

In the battle last night, he single-handedly chopped down more than a dozen soldiers of the Han army, broke off two double-edged swords, and took away a long halberd of the Han army. The soldier of the Han army fell to the ground, and he was captured alive, which is a shame. For a veteran, being captured alive by the enemy is definitely the greatest shame.

Gongsun Sui would rather die in battle than be captured alive by the enemy on the battlefield.

Moreover, the Han army had no good intentions to capture them alive, let alone let them live. Their final fate must be to be shown to the public at a certain expedition ceremony or a certain celebration banquet!If you are unlucky, they may even be used to sacrifice the dead Han soldiers.

What is a living sacrifice?It's like tearing out your heart alive!
Before you take your last breath, you will see your heart, lungs, and liver being placed on the altar to commemorate the fallen soldiers of the enemy army. That is definitely the cruelest thing in the world.

Thinking of this, Gongsun simply stopped and did not leave.

Both left and right are dead, so why suffer this living crime again?Why bother to covet this moment of life?

Seeing that Gongsun Sui refused to go any further, the leader of the Han army stationed in a big step forward, and without any explanation, he whipped the whip off Gongsun Sui's head and face. Unexpectedly, he didn't even blink his eyes in a daze, but just stared at the Han army chief coldly, staring straight at the Han army chief's heart.

"Are you going?" Seeing that the whip was ineffective, the head of the Han army drew his sword backhand.

The corner of Gongsun Sui's mouth couldn't help showing a disdainful smile, what I want is death!

The commander of the Han army felt that his prestige had been challenged, so he jumped into a rage, raised his sword and chopped off Gongsun Sui's neck. One shot pierced the elbow of the head of the Han army, and the head of the Han army immediately howled like a pig, and the big sword in his hand fell to the ground.

The next moment, there was a roar of shouts like a tsunami in the reeds beside the road, and immediately thousands of figures swarmed out of the reeds wielding cold sharp knives.

Gongsun Sui was taken aback for a moment, and then his eyes showed infinite surprise!

It's Chu Jun!It turned out to be Chu Jun!Isn't the figure that rushed out first the general?

"General!" Gongsun whimpered, trying to take the first two steps, but finally fell down because of the serious injury.

"Kill!" Xiang Zhuang raised his horizontal saber and drew forward, nearly [-] remnants of the Chu army swarmed forward. In less than half a cup of tea, more than a hundred Han troops were killed!

The few Han soldiers who ran away were also shot and killed one by one by Gao Chu with a strong bow.

Seeing Xiang Zhuang and the sudden appearance of Pao Ze, the dozens of Chu soldiers burst into tears after they came to their senses. After Gongsun Sui was rescued, he even hugged Xiang Zhuang's thigh and refused to let go, weeping uncontrollably: " General, my general died miserably, he died so miserably, you must avenge my general, revenge..."

After all, Gongsun Sui struggled again to lead Xiang Zhuang to a stretcher, lifted the white cloth covering it, and found Xiao Gongjiao's corpse underneath, Xiao Gongjiao's corpse was already bloody and bloody, and there was almost no other body left. The skin and flesh are intact, and the head has been separated from the body, and it is only pressed on top of it.

"Kill Xia Houying and avenge the general!" Dozens of Chu soldiers also fell to their knees.

Looking at the dozens of bloody Chu soldiers kneeling on the ground, Xiang Zhuang couldn't help but shudder!
Behind Xiang Zhuang, Gao Chu and the rest of the soldiers had already clenched their fists, Jing Qian was even more ashamed to death, even Zhongli Mo and Yu Ziqi, who had always been calm, were furious after seeing Xiao Gongjiao's head , obviously, Xiao Gongjiao's death stimulated them severely, Xiao Gongjiao and Wubaiqu could have survived, they died fighting to cover the main force to break through!
The ancients valued faith and righteousness. For a word of righteousness, they would often give up their lives. Xiao Gongjiao died in order to cover the retreat of the army. How could Zhongli Mo and Yu Ziqi remain indifferent?
Looking around again, almost all the remnants of the Chu army were already burning with anger.

Xiang Zhuang shook his head coldly, it was too late to break through, how could he care about avenging Xiao Gongjiao?

Let's not talk about whether it is possible to kill Xia Houying, even if it is really killing Xia Houying, is it useful?Can it change the current situation?

Xiao Gongjiao's unfortunate death in battle is certainly heartbreaking, but isn't his death just for the main force of the Chu army to break through?If the main force of the Chu army died in battle to avenge him, then the death of Xiao Gongjiao and Wubaiqu would be meaningless. Xiang Zhuang, as the general of Chu and the commander of the whole army, would never Made such a low-level mistake.

However, when Xiang Zhuang accidentally saw the corpse of the Han army on the ground, his heart suddenly moved.

Where are these hundreds of Han troops escorting dozens of Chu army prisoners, and Xiao Gongjiao's body and head?Could it be that Liu Bang's camp is just ahead?

As soon as this idea popped up, he was as calm as Xiang Zhuang, and his heart began to beat unhurriedly. Xiao Gongjiao died in battle, and the remnants of the Chu army were filled with anger. The army's morale is available, or this is really an opportunity!
In an instant, Xiang Zhuang's brain began to calculate rapidly. Today, the situation facing the Chu army is still severe, and the current security and peace are only temporary. The inner pocket heads back, at that time, the Chu army will still face the desperate situation of blocking and chasing, intercepting and killing again and again!
Zhang Liang and Chen Ping jointly designed the sky and earth network, is it a child's play?

Now that the Chu army has fallen into Zhang Chen's scheme, it will be even more difficult to escape from the sky!

However, the Chu army is not completely without chance. At least now, the Chu army has a chance, a chance to survive from death, to win in danger. Perhaps, this is also the only chance for the Chu army to escape! #################################################### #######PS: Thanks, Enrique Hot, ≌Magician, Rabbit Mi Youski, Ancestor of Kendo, Jiangnan Flying Mouse, Wind Blowing Sea Blue, ぁ泪满ぁ, Qingman, Zhao Tong, ╆Nalan Commoner ╅, Happy Thirteen Cheap, Bow your head and ears, Heart, Just grew up, Pure love piglet, MO is the way, Rogue rises up smoke, Pure love piglet, Story of the starry sky, Zhao Tong, Happy and romantic, Wandering ￡Feng, Gucheng~Wanlishang, Flying Blood and Flowers, Fantasy HOP, Fate April, Xuanyuan ㄨ Meteor, Zilong Ranger, Xuanyuan Yueyue, Starry Sky Story and other book friends' generous rewards, thank you very much.In addition, this book is still short of a few recommendation tickets before it can be listed on the homepage recommendation list, so I urgently need a few recommendation tickets.
