Chu and Han contend for the throne

Chapter 448 Escape to Mount Yao
The night was so dark that it seemed to be soaked in ink, and you couldn't see your fingers.

After more than ten days of rushing out at night and day, Jin Xiang finally brought three thousand tigers to the outside of Hulao Pass without anyone noticing. Before nightfall, the news came from the Wumuya dead soldiers lurking in Hulao Pass , They will move closer to the closed door after nightfall, and when the Huben army raises their fire, they will try their best to snatch the closed door.

Jin Xiang silently counted the time in his heart, when it was almost time, Jin Xiang suddenly turned around and shouted: "Fire!"

A soldier had struck the flint with a "cha" sound, and a few sparks splashed into the previously prepared velvet ball, and the velvet ball burst into flames, and Jin Xiang put the rocket fastened on the string to the velvet ball With a flick, the rocket burst into flames, and Jin Xiang drew up the iron tire bow again, and shot an arrow at the dark night sky in front of him.

Suddenly, a dazzling stream of light pierced the dark night sky.

Not long after, faint shouts sounded in the Hulao Pass not far ahead, and then clusters of fires shot up from the pass city, and half of the night sky was instantly reddened.

Jin Xiang pulled out the horizontal knife and drew it forward, shouting: "Kill!"

In the next moment, Jin Xiang had already rushed towards Hulao Pass with strides. Behind Jin Xiang, three thousand tigers accompanied him like a shadow, rushing forward. Jin Xiang had just rushed to Hulao Pass with three thousand tigers. The closed door creaked and opened, but it was the Wumuya dead soldier who sneaked into the pass beforehand and opened the closed door.

Without any hesitation, Jin Xiang rushed into the Hulao Pass holding the horizontal knife high.

Three thousand tigers rushed in and fought with the guarding Han army startled by the news. In an instant, the sound of killing was so loud that it could be heard clearly for tens of miles away.

When Uncle Sunying rushed to the gate of the Hulao, a banner of the Chu army had already been erected at the gate!
Looking up at the big banner of the Chu army that was fluttering on the closed side, Uncle Sunying's heart suddenly sank infinitely, and he hurried, but he was still half a step late. Could it be God's will?A canopy of feathered arrows suddenly shot down from the head, Uncle Sunying just woke up like a dream, hurriedly danced the sword to push the arrow away, reined in the horse, turned and left.

"Look, general, horse dung!" Hei Lang held a lump of horse dung and shouted at Hu Yan, "It's still hot!"

"Hahaha!" Hu Yan raised his head to the sky and laughed three times, then looked back at the three thousand wolf riders behind him, and said murderously, "Wolf cubs, old Liu Bang is not far ahead, let me chase after him!"

The three thousand wolf riders roared in an instant, and then followed Huyan and chased after him like a wind.

Xiang Zhuang gave the order to die, and Hu Yan also became ruthless. His three thousand wolf riders hardly rested during the journey, and the Xiao cavalry of the two brothers Meng Yuan and Meng Liao had long been left behind by his wolf riders. Well, the Han army is not stupid, fleeing all the way and setting up suspicious formations all the way, but with the black wolf who is very good at tracking, the Han army has nowhere to hide.

"Report..." Amidst the sound of hoofbeats, a fast horse chased up from behind like a storm.

Liu Bang, Guan Ying, Wang Chi, and Chen Ping all reined in their horses and stopped in a short time. After a while, the horse galloped up to Liu Bang, and then got off the horse and said, "Your Majesty, the Chu army is less than ten miles away from here!"

Guan Ying and Wang Chi's expressions suddenly changed, the Chu army came so fast? !

Liu Bang's face turned pale, he turned his head anxiously and asked Chen Ping, "Chen Ping, what should I do?"

Chen Ping was also shocked. This place is only near Yangdi, and there are hundreds of miles away from Hulao Pass. If we continue to go forward like this, I am afraid that no one will be able to get away!
"Your Majesty, the only thing we can do now is divide the troops!" Chen Ping said decisively.

"Divide the troops, divide the troops, then divide the troops." Liu Bang repeated, "How to divide the troops?"

Chen Ping said to Wang Chi: "General Wang Chi, please lead the army to turn south and divert the pursuers!"

"Here!" Wang Xi responded with a bang, and immediately mobilized an army of [-] to turn southward in a mighty way, while Liu Bang took [-] light cavalry, took a small road and continued eastward, heading straight for Hulao Pass.

However, less than fifty miles to the east, they met the uncle and grandson who had turned back in a hurry.

"What did you say? Hulao Pass has also been lost?!" After hearing the report from his uncle and grandson, Liu Bang was in a state of confusion, looking at Chen Ping in panic and said, "Chen Ping, what should we do? What should we do? "The three roads back to Guanzhong were all blocked, and Xiang Zhuang's son was so vicious in his attack, really he didn't leave a way for people to survive?

The monarchs and ministers of the Han Dynasty were in a panic, and they reported to the Chu army that the Chu army was catching up again!

When Liu Bang heard that he was really scared, he quickly got off his horse, pouted his buttocks and crawled into the chicken coop on the left side of the road. He couldn't care less about the stench inside, and he didn't even care about the chicken manure on his face. , Guan Ying and Chen Ping couldn't stand it, rushed forward and dragged Liu Bang out of the chicken coop.

"My lord, what are you doing?" Guan Ying frowned.

"Hide quickly, hide quickly." Liu Bang said anxiously, "The Chu army is about to catch up!"

After all, Liu Bang struggled to break away from Guan Ying and Chen Ping, and was about to go into the cowshed on the right side of the road. Chen Ping took two steps forward to block Liu Bang, and sighed: "Your Majesty, you can't hide."

"Then what should we do?" Liu Bang said hysterically, "We can't go back to Guanzhong!"

Chen Pingdao: "At this point, we can only flee to Mount Yao, or we can find a way out."

After finishing speaking, Chen Ping turned his head and gave Guan Ying a deep bow, and said, "General Guan Ying, please take the army forward and lead the Chu army to Hulao Pass!"

Guan Ying didn't talk nonsense, just bowed to Liu Bang and Chen Ping respectively, then got on his horse and yelled at the Han cavalry who followed him: "Young men of the Han Dynasty, follow me!" After a while, Guan Ying He took more than 2000 riders along the main road, and there were only Liu Bang, Chen Ping, Shu Sunying and more than a hundred Yulin guards left in the village.

After Guan Ying's cavalry army had gone far, Chen Ping asked his uncle and grandson Ying to go to the village to search out farm clothes and exchange them with everyone, and then ordered more than a dozen imperial guards to drive all the mounts to turn south, and went south as the imperial guards Then he took his uncle, grandson Ying and the remaining imperial guards to protect Liu Bang and turned north, escaping into the vast and vast Yaoshan Mountain.

About half an hour later, Huyan chased here with three thousand wolf riders.

"Woo..." At the fork at the end of the village, Hu Yan lightly stopped the horse under his crotch, raised his right hand, and stopped the three thousand wolf riders accompanying him.

Before Hu Yan could give an order, Hei Lang had already dismounted from his horse, lay down on the ground, sniffed and touched, carefully checked the weeds beside the road, and then got up to report: "General, the Han army fled here and suddenly divided into three groups. Going forward, there are more than a hundred riders turning to the south, and more than a hundred people are rushing to the north to the mountains."

"What? Divided into three ways?" Huyan frowned instantly.

However, Hu Yan only hesitated for a moment before making a decisive decision: "Hei Lang, you lead people to follow south. Although this group of people are riding horses, they are most suspicious; Black Eagle, you lead people to chase and kill That group of people in the north must kill them all before entering the mountain no matter what, black bear, black fox, you and I will continue to chase!"

With Huyan's order, the three thousand wolf cavalry divided into three groups instantly, two thousand cavalry followed Huyan and continued to chase towards Hulao Pass, and the other thousand cavalry divided into two groups, chasing and killing towards the north and south respectively.

The wolves rode one man and two horses, and their horsepower far surpassed that of the Han cavalry. At dusk, Huyan's two thousand wolf cavalry caught up with Guan Ying's two thousand Han cavalry. As soon as the army fought in a melee, the Han cavalry, who had lost their morale and fighting spirit, were defeated without any suspense. Two thousand Han cavalry were almost killed.

Guan Ying was wearing a few arrows and surrounded by more than a dozen wolf riders.

Hu Yan raised his horse, pointed at Guan Ying's throat and shouted, "I'll ask you again, where is old Liu Bang?"

Guan Ying was unafraid, facing Ma Qian's sharp edge and said, "Want to know? Hehe, I won't tell you."

"Looking for death!" Huyan was furious, and pierced Guan Ying's throat with a spear, and then turned around and shouted, "Go and look around to see if there are any old people among them, and report back immediately if you find it!"

Liu Bang woke up from the nightmare again, but when he looked up, he saw the sky full of stars.

"Your Majesty, are you having nightmares again?" A cold voice suddenly sounded in his ear. Hearing the sound, Liu Bang turned his head and saw Chen Ping standing behind him like a ghost. Liu Bang unconsciously felt a chill. In order to prevent the Chu army from chasing and killing Chen Ping, Liu Bang was a little afraid of Chen Ping.

Seeing Liu Bang's head covered in cold sweat, Chen Ping sighed: "My lord, the Chu army will not catch up again."

At this time, it has been two days since they escaped into Yaoshan. The Han army has been playing tricks with the Chu army for the past two days, but before nightfall tonight, the Han army finally got rid of the Chu army's pursuit and has been chasing behind. The Chu army fell into Chen Ping's plan to get rid of the golden cicada and was led in another direction, but the price was that there were only [-] guards left in the hundreds of imperial guards.

With the sound of light footsteps, the uncle and grandson had already come out of the Orion's hut, holding a large bowl of squashed rabbit meat in his hand. With Lin Wei's gaze, everyone swallowed their saliva. They hadn't eaten a grain of rice for three days, and their stomachs were already growling with hunger.

Liu Bang only took one bite and handed the rabbit meat to Chen Ping. He really lost his appetite.

Chen Ping handed the meat bowl back to Liu Bang, and persuaded: "Your Majesty, you should eat something at least. This mountain road is not easy to walk, and you can't do it if you don't have enough physical strength." The famous Dashanchuan between the two counties of Yingchuan is hundreds of miles away, and it is not something that can be walked in ten or eight days.

Liu Bang had no choice but to frown and ate the rabbit meat.

It wasn't until Liu Bang finished eating that Uncle Sunying brought out the whole cauldron from the hut, first filled Chen Ping with a bowl of broth, and then waved his hand, the twenty or so imperial guards immediately rushed forward, directly using their hands Picking up the wild vegetables from the pot and eating them voraciously, it's really pitiful to say it. When did the Yulin guards suffer from this kind of suffering?

PS: There was a mistake in the last chapter. The first meeting between Zhang Liang and Liu Bang should not be when Bo Langsha assassinated the King of Qin, but at the end of the Qin Dynasty when Zhang Liang met Liu Bang on the way to join Jingju. Apologies everyone.
