Chu and Han contend for the throne

Chapter 48

"Puff puff!"

The four or so long halberds pierced almost at the same time, piercing through the soldiers of the Chu army and holding him above the iron cauldron.

The bright red blood immediately splashed out like a fountain, and then gurgled down several long halberds. Even though they were severely injured, the soldiers of the Chu army still did not die. They just raised their heads and screamed pitifully. The two iron halberds were abruptly pulled out from the body, and the Chu soldier's body suddenly lost its support, and he fell heavily into the big iron cauldron holding the torch again.

"Pfft!"

"Whoa!"

Almost at the same time that the soldiers of the Chu army fell into the big iron cauldron, the boiling oil suddenly splashed in all directions, and the dozens of Han soldiers guarding nearby were scalded and scorched, screaming and rolling. He fell to the ground, and the next moment, the falling torches ignited the splashing fire oil, and the raging fire burned up.

"Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..." A soldier of the Han army was covered with fire, screaming and running wildly, but after running two steps forward, he knocked down another big iron cauldron and fell into the boiling oil pan , The next moment, another mass of fire blazed up, and the whole city was plunged into a sea of ​​flames in an instant.

A dozen steps away, Liu Bang, who was hiding behind the shield wall, was also splashed with kerosene.

"Ah, fire, fire, put out the fire!" Liu Bang screamed and slapped the flames on his shirt. Zhang Liang and Chen Ping also hurried forward, frantically following the flames on Liu Bang's body, and at the same time ordered his relatives The soldiers built a shield wall between Liu Bang and the fire scene, which finally stopped the spread of the fire.

In the confusion, Zhang Liang persuaded: "My lord, the top of the city is too dangerous, let's go down."

"Yes, yes, go down, go down." Liu Bang was still in shock, and nodded again and again. Just now, just now, the scene of the Chu army soldier jumping into the frying pan without fear of death really frightened him. , these southern barbarians are not human at all, they are all fucking beasts, they don't take their own lives seriously!

Liu Bang really didn't dare to stay at the top of the city for a moment. The one who jumped up to the top of the city this time was just a small soldier. Maybe the one who jumped up next time would be Xiaoer Xiangzhuang himself. With the bravery of Xiaoer Xiangzhuang, who can stop it? he?Who will keep him safe then?Liu Bang looked at the hundreds of soldiers around him, turned around and went down to the top of the city.

After getting down from the top of the city, Liu Bang ordered his soldiers to bring dozens of fast horses. Although this street rogue was afraid of death and looked extremely embarrassed now, his mind was still very clear. I can take advantage of the chaos to forcefully break through. As for whether I can break through, only God knows.

On the mountain in the distance, two Chu soldiers stood facing the wind.

Looking back, one can faintly see the camp of the Han army rebelling against the sky. Hearing the momentum, the Chu army is attacking urgently, but they don't know how the battle is progressing?Has the general beheaded the old man Liu Bang by the knife?At this moment, the two Chu soldiers really wanted to follow the general to fight on the battlefield, but they couldn't because they had more important tasks.

Suddenly, a sharp-eyed Chu soldier pointed forward and shouted: "Han army, Han army reinforcements!"

When another Chu soldier looked back anxiously, he saw that the endless Han army was like a swarm of ants, rushing from the other side of the mountain. There were at least 5000 people in that formation!Immediately, the two Chu soldiers raised their horns and blew vigorously without any hesitation. In an instant, the low and desolate sound of the horn rose into the sky.

##########
"Attack!" Xiang Zhuang looked ferocious, raised his saber and roared again.

"Roar, roar, roar, hit!" Jing Qian roared hysterically, leading a dozen or so soldiers of the Chu army to carry a ramming log weighing nearly a thousand catties, and slammed into the gate of the barrier at the fastest speed. Hearing the loud sound of "expansion", the already dilapidated gate suddenly disintegrated and shattered into pieces of residual wood.

"Hahaha, kill!" Jing Qian looked up to the sky and laughed, and immediately rushed into the gate with his sword drawn.

"Assault, the whole army assault, kill all the Han army!" Xiang Zhuang also roared excitedly to the sky.

However, at this moment, a sudden sound of a horn suddenly sounded behind him. The sound of the horn was deep and powerful, but it was tense and desolate.

"Huh!?" Xiang Zhuang suddenly looked back.

"Han reinforcements have arrived!" Yu Ziqi said awe-inspiringly, "General, withdraw your troops!"

"General, you can't withdraw!" Gao Chu said with a grim expression on his face, "If you don't kill old Liu Bang, you will never withdraw!"

"General, you lead the army to retreat first!" Zhong Limo said solemnly, "The last general only needs five hundred elite soldiers from his headquarters, and he will definitely behead Liu Bang's dog's head and avenge the king and General Xiao Gongjiao!"

In an instant, Xiang Zhuang fell into a violent struggle.

withdraw troops?Seeing that the gates of the barriers have been breached, how can the hundreds of Han troops inside resist the remnants of the Chu army like tigers and wolves?Half a quarter of an hour, half an hour at most, Old Liu Bang will surely die!How can Xiang Zhuang be willing to withdraw his troops at this time?How can he be willing?Not reconciled, never reconciled!

However, if the Chu army continues to attack, even if they can kill Liu Bang, they will definitely be held back by the swarming Han army. No matter how brave the Chu army is, they have been fighting continuously for such a long time. Physical strength has reached its limit, and once trapped in a tight siege at this time, it will inevitably end in the destruction of the entire army!

Just leave Zhong Limei and the five hundred Chu troops?Obviously not!
Gritting his teeth, Xiang Zhuang still gave up the crazy idea of ​​dying with Liu Bang.

Now, all the Han armies and princes from all walks of life are probably on their way to rescue, right?
Now that the various Han armies and allied armies have been mobilized, the net set by Zhang Liang and Chen Ping will be destroyed by itself. In this case, why put all your eggs in one basket and fight Liu Bang to break the net?If Liu Bang is really killed, Xiang Zhuang will also die. In the end, isn't it cheaper for Han Xin, Yingbo, and Peng Yue?
It's a pity that Liu Bang can't be killed this time, but as long as he is alive, there will always be a chance in the future!
"Ah!" Xiang Zhuang raised his head to let out a roar of extreme anger and unwillingness, and then sternly shouted, "The order is for the whole army to retreat, let's go..."

Before he finished speaking, Xiang Zhuang vomited blood and fell backwards.

Zhongli Mo, Yu Ziqi, and Gao Chu were shocked when they saw this, and hurried forward to support Xiang Zhuang.

In just this moment, Xiang Zhuang's face was already pale and his lips were purple. In fact, he was seriously injured a long time ago. He was only supported by an extremely excited emotion just now, so he didn't feel it. Now this excited emotion Once retreated, the physical injury immediately redoubled.

"Go." Xiang Zhuang waved his hands weakly, "Go back to the mountains, old camp!"

Gao Chu suddenly got up, turned his head and yelled a trombone: "Let's go, let's go..."

With an order, the remnants of the Chu army who were crowding outside the gate of the fort immediately retreated like a tide, and immediately carried Xiang Zhuang and more than a hundred seriously injured Chu soldiers out of the Han army camp like a tide.

##########
Liu Bang huddled in the corner of the horse shed, his face paled from fright.

Dozens of steps away is the gate of the barrier. Liu Bang can clearly see that a small Chu army with a strong figure and wearing heavy armor has rushed into the gate with a long knife. Seven or eight armored soldiers of the Han army swarmed up, but unexpectedly Unable to stop him, he was cut down by the Chu army's elite soldiers in a row, and the remaining few were also chopped down to the ground by the swarming Chu army.

More soldiers of the Han army were rushing down from the tower, trying to hold the gate that had been knocked open.

However, everyone can see that the barrier fell within a short while, and even if the remaining hundreds of armored soldiers were all Liu Bang's dead soldiers, they could all die for Liu Bang, I'm afraid they won't last long , because the Han army had already been frightened by the vigor of the Chu army, even Liu Bang, why isn't it also a two-way battle now, trembling all over?
It's over, it's over, I miss Liu Ji's first hero, and I don't want to die in this barren mountain in the end!
Just when Liu Bang thought he was going to die, there was a continuous sound of horns outside the barrier, and immediately the small Chu army turned around and left, and the dozens of Chu soldiers who had already entered the barrier retreated like a tide , the soldiers of the Han army who were still desperately resisting just now were a little dazed, but none of them dared to chase and kill them.

Liu Bang was also a little confused, what happened to the Chu army, why did they retreat?
At this moment, Zhang Liang slid down the stairs with disheveled hair, scrambling and scrambling, and rushed to Liu Bang in two steps, panting violently: "My lord, the Chu army has retreated, the Chu army has retreated!"

"What, Chu Jun retreated? Really retreated? Really retreated?"

"Well, we're really retreating!" Zhang Liang nodded heavily, "Reinforcements have arrived!"

"Okay, that's great!" Liu Bang's expression immediately brightened when he heard the words, his legs stopped shaking, his body stopped shaking, and his originally extremely pale face suddenly returned to rosy. He laughed loudly and said, "Hahaha, son of Xiangzhuang, it's not so easy to want my life, Liu Ji!"

Less than three quarters of an hour later, Xia Houying finally arrived with the army.

"Your Majesty, where is your Majesty!" Xia Houying, who was already out of breath, almost crawled into the barrier. Xia Houying was in as much embarrassment as he wanted. It fell off, the bun also fell apart, the armor on his body was turned upside down, and one of the boots on his feet also ran away.

Seeing that Liu Bang was safe and sound, Xia Houying's hanging heart finally fell back into his stomach, and he fell to the ground and cried: "I have caused the king to be in danger, and I will die!"

For the rest of Liu Bang's life after the catastrophe, his heart was full of joy. Naturally, he didn't mean to blame Xia Houying at all. He got up and touched Xia Houying's shoulders repeatedly, and said with emotion: "Xia Houying, Xia Houying, this time I'm alone It’s thanks to you that I can not die, you are really a lonely lucky general!” ################################## ################################PS: Thank you for the generous rewards and congratulations on becoming "Chu The guardian of Han Zheng Ding!Thanks to: Jiangning Feixue, the ancestor of kendo, Lonely Outsider, s Shukuang & Shangs, lan904849990, Ping Shaosan, Ji Xing, Hot Coca-Cola, Deep Sea Dragon Fish, Story of the Starry Sky, Jade Blood Sword 1, Crazy Bookworm 11, Generous rewards from book friends such as Ah Gengjianjian, Happy Thirteen Cheap, ╆Nalan Buyi╅, Drunk Sword, Flying Blood Flowers, Sexy Corn 2, Flying Clouds, Hongchen Rumeng, L Liying, etc. Thank you so much.
