Competing

Chapter 105 Chapter [-]
"General, the Chu army has broken out!" Zhang Ping resentfully walked into the tent of the Chinese army, and reluctantly reported the military situation to Zhang Han.In business affairs, even his own brother would call Zhang Han the general in front of everyone.

Zhang Han coughed lightly, picked up the bronze utensil containing water on the case, and put it down heavily, causing water to splash everywhere.Yin Xu's sudden appearance completely disrupted his deployment, and the Qin army was in chaos, and rescued Xiang Liang's remnants under his nose.This matter made him feel a great shame, and he was extremely depressed for a while.

Seeing this, Zhang Ping hurriedly reported: "General, the Chu army lost 5000 people by the Beigou, and the last general personally led his men to pursue them, and beheaded more than [-] Chu soldiers by the Jishui River. Until Chen Sheng's former subordinate Lu Chen appeared, We had no choice but to withdraw our troops." As for the eight thousand casualties of the Qin army, he didn't say anything, but Zhang Han already knew it.

"Uh..." Zhang Ping paused, and continued: "According to news, Xiang Liang was injured by our army's arrows and will die soon."

Oh?Hearing this news, Zhang Han was pleasantly surprised and relieved a lot.Huo Di stood up and hurriedly asked: "Is the news true?"

"Yes, Xiang Liang was injured by the arrows of my Daqin soldiers. The wound was at the vital point between the chest and abdomen. Thousands of soldiers saw Xiang Liang being carried away. Even if he didn't die, he was seriously injured. .” Zhang Ping was delighted, and answered crisply.

"Very good!" Zhang Han turned his worries into joy. If Xiang Liang died, the siege battle would be a big victory if he failed.The significance of Xiang Liang's death in the battle of Qi Chu is extraordinary, and it directly affects the overall situation of the anti-Qin uprising in the south of the river.

"Send someone to investigate and confirm whether Xiang Liang is really dead?" This matter requires a sure-fire answer.

"No!" At the same time Zhang Ping was leaving the account, the two came over!One is Zuo Ming, Dong Yi's subordinate, and the other is tall and burly, wearing the costume of a general of the Qin army.

"The last general, Zuo Ming, see the general!" Zuo Ming, who went in first, knelt down and saluted.

Zhang Han just nodded, and Zuo Ming said: "General Dong Yi sent the final report to the general!" He couldn't help but become hesitant, and said: "The battle of Dong'a failed to keep Yin Xu, let him slip away. Already!"

Zhang Han snorted coldly: "It's late! Get out and reflect on yourself!"

Zuo Ming was frightened. When he arrived, he had already learned of Yin Xu's surprise attack and rescued Xiang Liang's troops.Ever since Yin Xu crossed the river, both he and Dong Yi were worried about Yin Xu's coming to Qi, so they rushed to report the news.I don't think it's still a step too late, and as expected, a big mess happened.The more this is the case, the more courageous it is to admit mistakes. It will be very bad when Zhang Han is held accountable.Only then did Zuo Ming bite the bullet, and when he came in, he was scolded by Zhang Han again,

After Zuo Ming left resentfully, the burly general entered the tent and saluted: "The last general, Wang Shan, is ordered by the general to come to pay respects to the general!"

The highest military rank in the Qin State is General, and now there is only Zhang Han.The second is the general, and now the Qin army can only have the title and only Wucheng Hou Wangli.He is the grandson of Wang Jian, the son of Wang Ben, and the son of a famous general family. When Qin Shihuang was in power, he was granted the title of Marquis of Wucheng.

At that time, Wang Li was serving as Meng Tian's assistant general in Shangjun. The first emperor died in the sand dunes, and Meng Tian was imprisoned and killed in the north.He took over the Northwest Frontier Army defending the Huns.At present, the main force of the Qin army that can be mobilized is the judging army led by Zhang Han and mainly composed of Lishan prisoners.The other is the Northwest Frontier Army led by Wang Li. These two can be regarded as the mainstay of the current Qin State.

Zhang Han said politely: "Sit down and talk!" Although Wang Shan is only a lieutenant general, he represents Wang Li, face and etiquette are a must.

Wang Li thanked him for taking his seat, and reported: "General, Marquis Wucheng has found out what you want after receiving His Majesty's order, and led 20 frontier troops to approach the northern border of Zhao State. Now they are stationed in the Yanmen area and can send troops at any time. Go south and coordinate with the general to fight Hebei."

Zhang Han smiled lightly, and all the things that he told Zhao Cheng that day have been done today.Wang Li's timely arrival is undoubtedly the best consolation for today's failure.

"Great, as long as the news of Xiang Liang's death is confirmed, Qi and Chu in the south of the river will not be worried. I will immediately lead the army to the north and attack Yanzhao with the Marquis of Wucheng!" Zhang Han couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, but behind his smiling face was Hidden with a trace of doubt, is Xiang Liang really dead?
At the edge of Jishui, after a desperate struggle, the Chu army finally broke out a bloody road, broke out of the encirclement, and just got rid of the pursuit of the Qin army.5000 troops were lost at Beigou, and the 3000 troops at Jishui were almost wiped out. If Lu Chen hadn't come to respond in time, the consequences would have been disastrous.

The fog had completely dissipated, and Yin Xu ordered to rest by the Jishui River. The blood-stained and ragged Chu army was exhausted, but no one sat down. They all looked at the place where the commander-in-chief flag was by the river, and remained silent.

The seriously injured Xiang Liang was lying on a simple stretcher, his face was extremely pale, without any trace of blood.The shaft of the arrow has been cut off, and the arrowhead is still stuck in the chest. If someone dares to move it, according to the words of the military doctor, a slight touch will kill him immediately.

Yin Xu, Zhong Limei, Xiao Gongjiao, Lu Chen and other important generals surrounded him, all with moist eyes and sorrow.

Xiang Liang was seriously injured and could no longer speak. Everyone saw grief, hatred, and endless worries in his painful eyes.

"Marshal..." Zhong Limei was sobbing as soon as he opened his mouth.

Xiao Gongjiao stepped forward and said: "Marshal, don't worry, we will do our best to avenge you, and Song Yi, Tian Rong, and Zhang Han will not be left behind!"

There was a gleam of joy in Xiang Liang's eyes, and only worry was left. His eyes swept across the faces of everyone, and finally fell on Yin Xu's face.Yin Xu couldn't bear his pain and worry, stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Marshal, don't worry, brother Yu has already inherited your ambition, defeated Qin, and revived Chu! We will do our best to help him." These few words Yin Xu The sonorous and forceful words, the confusion in the mind, is a promise, and it is also a comfort to a dying old man.

A trace of comfort flashed in Xiang Liang's eyes, and a faint smile emerged from the corner of his mouth, tremblingly wanting to raise his hand.But in the end he didn't lift it up, his big callused hand suddenly fell down, and Xiang Liang, a famous general in the area, passed away suddenly.

"Marshal!" All the generals bowed down and cried bitterly.The soldiers in the distance saw this and knew that the marshal had passed away, and they all fell to their knees.For a while, the bank of Jishui was gloomy, and the sound of mourning and crying could be heard for miles.

Yin Xu sat on the ground slumped, with tiger tears streaming from his eyes, Xiang Liang was still dead.Although he tried his best to rush back to Qi State, even though he took the risk to rescue him in time from Juyeze, he failed to save the life of Xiang Liang, a famous general. There is always a lot of helplessness and regret in the world!

The night came quickly, and for Fan Zeng, waiting for the arrival of this night was extraordinarily long and tangled.The moonlight in the sky tonight is not clear, but the little stars in autumn are particularly bright.Fan Zeng walked out of the room tremblingly, stood in the courtyard for a long time but did not look up.At this moment, his desire to watch the stars is more urgent than ever, but he is afraid of seeing the last thing he wants to see.

Xiang Yu walked over, with worry and hope intertwined in his eyes, and nodded to Fan Zeng.Fan Zeng finally mustered up the courage to look up somewhere in the sky.A moment later, the old body suddenly burst, and the crutch in his hand fell to the ground with a bang.

Xiang Yu was extremely worried, and an ominous feeling suddenly pervaded his whole body. Reason made him look at Fan Zeng, expecting to hear a different answer.

Fan Zeng was silent for a long time, then said sadly: "The stars will fall..."
