Legends in Chu and Han

C159



The setting sun gradually descended, dying the sky red with sunset.

In the tents of the Qin Army, the troops were noisy, the seventy to eighty thousand people that had retreated from the front lines were in the midst of rearranging their troops.

Dong Yi was supported by two assistant generals into the tent. Zhang Han, Sima Xin and the rest were researching the layout of the Hangu Pass, no one expected that they would lose to the huge army of a hundred thousand in the rope pool city.

Seeing that, Zhang Han immediately went forward to scout, and asked: "How can a small city lose and return, could it be that the allied forces are truly so tenacious?"

Dong Yi coughed twice and spat out a mouthful of blood, he was supported by the assistant general on the chair and felt completely exhausted, the pain was unbearable: Reporting to the general, although there are many members of the allied army, but they are powerless in battle, and are not our match. I do not know why, but just as they were breaking down the city, a soldier of the Yan family standing on the wall shot his arrow at the top of his bow, and suddenly struck a iron arrow that was struck by it and fainted.

The deputy general named Zheng Yue replied, "Reporting to General Dong, after General Dong was shot, the Swallow Soldier shot two more arrows, knocking down the army's banner and the Thunderclap Drum, causing chaos in the front lines, causing heavy casualties from the rebel army's counterattack. Seeing that there was nothing more to be done, the soldiers lost their fighting spirit and ordered the retreat of their troops to report to General Zhang, who shall decide."

Zhang Han could not believe it: "Three arrows repelled one hundred thousand of our elite soldiers?"

He had always prided himself on his superior arm strength and shooting skills, but he could only shoot from his bow to around a hundred meters, there were actually hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the Yan Jun, and he had really underestimated this group of scattered troops. Curious, he observed the arrow feathers on Dong Yi's shoulder, and shockingly carved out the word "dragon" on it, and asked in shock: "It's him? It's really him! "

All of the generals in the tent were shocked, thinking that the person was actually the old friend of the general.

He looked around at the crowd and said: "Outside Luoyang City, the vanguard of our army had been ambushed by the Yan soldiers. The weak and weak Yan Jun, why did you have the guts to turn your head and go back and ambush the Qin Army? At that time, when you saw the crossbow bolts shot by the archers, you already felt that something was amiss.

The crowd was silent. After guessing for a while, they still couldn't figure it out, so they shook their heads and looked at each other.

Zhang Han frowned, his expression grave as he spat out each word, "Dragon … Heavens … "Yu!"

All the soldiers present paled in their clamor, not daring to breathe too loudly. It was him, no wonder!

… ….

Long Tianyu returned to the camp and gathered with Li Yueyao, Xue Mengyi, Xiahou Ying and the others inside the camp to discuss the next step of the military deployment. Everyone knew very well that once the first wave of Qin Army was forced back, Zhang Han would very quickly lead the army behind him to attack.

Including Long Tianyu, even if these hundred thousand people were to be under his command, the odds of winning were very slim against the more than two hundred thousand Qin Soldier warriors. After all, the divine speed of the troops did not matter, and the number of victories was because his subordinates were always elite soldiers who fought alongside him in battles to the north and the south.

If he were to command this group of undisciplined, unexperienced allied army, he would know that he would be defeated without a doubt even without fighting, because he really couldn't think of a reason to win this war.

Xue Mengyi could not help but ask: "Tian Yu just said that he had a plan to defeat his enemy, Yi Yi would obviously want to hear about it."

Li Yueyao was also curious: "Facing Zhang Han's over two hundred thousand Qin Soldier, other than retreating towards the Hangu Pass, we can't think of any other way to destroy the enemy. Long Lang, Yueyao also wants to know too!"

When Long Tianyu saw the beautiful eyes of the two of them looking at him with their extremely tender and beautiful faces, the candlelight inside the tent shone on them with a strange light. He couldn't help but be dumbstruck for a moment, and then said: "To rope pool, there is the advance of Qin Army, and to the rear, the Chu Army who is eyeing us covetously, the situation is grim. To the other loyal troops, there are only two paths for them to survive.

Xue Mengyi looked at Li Yueyao, thinking that her father was the pillar of the Chu Nation, as long as she wrote a letter to the general of the Chu Army, there would be no reason for him to not save her.

Li Yueyao felt the fiery gaze of the renowned Ji, and already understood the meaning of the other party's words, she shook her head and sighed: "Don't look at me, this daughter of Chu Xiang is only hanging on the signboard, she will not accept any orders from the foreign army. Even if my father gave the order, I think that Xiang Yu would probably not let the allied army off, because he is not willing to become not only a general of the Chu Nation, after all, does he not belong to the Chu Nation?

"Second, if Xiang Yu wants to dominate the world, she'll definitely use Fan Zeng's poison to fight against the Qin Soldier. Unless both sides suffer, he won't open the Hangu Pass's gates, so not only will she weaken the Qin Army's power, she'll also need the help of the Qin Soldier to clear out the obstacles of the six united nations. Tell me, how could he possibly let go of such an excellent opportunity?"

Xue Mengyi's face turned white, and said in shock: "What you mean is that we are in a dilemma, and the only way is to defeat Zhang Han's army, but …. But the difference in strength between the two armies is too wide, unless the Dragon General himself leads, like in the Pengcheng battle, the difference in strength is too great, who in the world would have the ability to do so? "

Long Tianyu thought: "Beautiful girl, aren't you thinking too highly of me!"

Although he did not want to disappoint the beauty, he was helpless against the Qin Army. He laughed bitterly: "It's not that I am unscrupulous, but I am powerless to help the army that is attacking the city from outside the city. Today, I have only been able to push back the first wave of the vanguard with luck, followed by the generals and enemy soldiers.

Xue Mengyi said anxiously: "Is there really no other way?"

"Yi Yi, don't be anxious. Let's listen to what Long Lang has to say first. I believe he has his own ingenious plan." Seeing that her husband was not in a hurry and was still in dire straits, she must have made a plan to deal with the enemy soldiers.

Xue Mengyi nodded, hearing her unintentionally calling Long Lang and bringing him along, she immediately felt embarrassed, her cheeks immediately turned red, she stole a glance at Long Tianyu, and shyly lowered her head.

Long Tianyu thought that he was still extremely intelligent, and could guess from my actions that I would not be without schemes against my enemies. He smiled lightly: "Sister Yao need not praise me, I am no longer the one leading the troops to settle this issue, in fact, if I were to reveal my identity, not only will Zhang Han be able to guess the strength of the city, even Xiang Yu will not let me off so easily.

Everyone was confused, they did not know what medicine he had bought, and looked at him suspiciously. Xue Mengyi, after all, did not interact with him for long, and was not like the generals that followed Long Tianyu, who were aware of the unfathomable profoundness, but were still not surprised. The more mysterious she was, the more curious she got, and she asked: "If we can't beat him, how can we retreat? Dragon General, quickly tell me! "

Li Yueyao pulled her arm from the side and huffed a laugh: "You don't know, this is how Long Lang is. Before the critical moment that concerns survival, he has a profound look and his words seem to be filled with profound mysteries.

Xue Mengyi felt that she was too reckless and thought that she was saying this on purpose or not. The more she thought about it, the hotter her cheeks felt, and her heart was beating like a deer in shock. She lowered her face, afraid that the people she liked would see.

Long Tianyu held onto the two of them and laughed out loud: "Don't worry, your husband has his reasons. This time, not only will we withdraw from Zhang Han's army, we will also let Xiang Yu face the consequences."
