Chapter 997: The Eve of the Final Battle

"The flank has been breached, and the troops are temporarily suspended!"

Fan Zeng saw that the flank composed of Jingzhou Army and Jiaozhou Army was defeated by the Cavalry Army, and the Cavalry Army tried to go around and attack the Chu Army's camp, so he called for money again and withdrew his troops.

Xiang Yu had already defeated Wang Li's Qin army, demolished seven arrow towers of the Qin army, beheaded more than a thousand people, and slaughtered all directions.

However, Chutian avoided confrontation with Xiang Yu again, and attacked Jingzhou Army and Jiaozhou Army who were covering Xiang Yu, in an attempt to surround Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu heard the voice of Mingjin defenders and had to retreat.

The Great Wall Army besieged Xiang Yu and was defeated by Xiang Yu again.

The iron cavalry army did not try to attack the Chu army's camp, but retreated in time.

When Xiang Yu turned back, he missed again.

"Qin Jun is playing with us..."

Fan Zeng felt like he was being tricked again.

When Chu Tian dealt with Xiang Yu, he never attacked from the front, but only attacked from the flanks, encircling Wei and saving Zhao.

As soon as Xiang Yu retreated, the Chu army's offensive was contained.

Yang Shilang and Wang Defa fled back in disgrace.

On the other side, the Beifu army also had to retreat.

"The effect of breaking the boat is only one day. If we don't completely break through the Qin army's defense line, our troops will become smaller and smaller, and it will be difficult to win."

Seeing that the Jingzhou Army and the Jiaozhou Army were also severely damaged, Tongque fell silent, leaving only the Chu Army and Jiangdong Army.

"I will help you four thousand Jiangdong disciples to strengthen your flanks."

Xiang Yu handed over 4,000 Jiangdong disciples to Yang Shilang and Wang Defa to supplement their forces.

"Will the frontal forces be insufficient?"

Yang Shilang worried that after Xiang Yu divided his troops, he would not have enough troops to break through.

"Keep the flank so I can attack."

Xiang Yu was depressed for a while. He attacked twice in a row, but Chu Tian used flank attacks to defuse them. At this time, he had to divide his troops and strengthen the flanks.

Tongque's Beifu Army and Sun Jian's Jiangdong Army did not need Xiang Yu to divide their troops, the Beifu Army itself was already strong enough.

Xiang Yu saw that the physical strength of the troops had declined, so he said: "The whole army rests, and we will fight again tomorrow."

Tongque reminded Xiang Yu: "Among the Qin army, the real commander is Chu Zimou. If he can be killed among thousands of troops, then the Qin army will be defeated without a fight."

Tongque thinks that Xiang Yu can be used.

With Xiang Yu's force, if Chu Tian is found among the Qin army, there is a high probability that he can kill Chu Tian.

"Chu Zimou?"

Hearing what Tongque said, Xiang Yu believed that Chu Tian, ​​who was in command of the Cavalry Army, should indeed be sanctioned.

Fan Zeng's thinking is more long-term: "I have sent people to contact Zhao Jun, Yan Jun, and Qi Jun, and they are finally willing to send troops to help."

After Xiang Yu retreated, the camp of the Qin army was in a mess. Seven wooden arrow towers were destroyed by Xiang Yu with his bare hands, and dozens of cowardly Xue troops were killed by Xiang Yu in the melee.

The Qin army that Xiang Yu personally killed ranged from one thousand to as many as two thousand.

"Xiang Yu kills thousands of people in every battle. If Xiang Yu recovers his physical strength and comes to fight again, wouldn't he kill ten thousand people in ten days, and kill one hundred thousand people in a hundred days..."

Seeing the devastation everywhere, Chu Tian couldn't help being shocked.

Xiang Yu is equivalent to a giant humanoid beast. No one in the Great Wall Army can kill Xiang Yu, but when Xiang Yu goes berserk, even the arrow tower can be easily dismantled.

The Qixue army deployed on the arrow tower, as a ninth-tier unit, could not escape.

The face of Wang Li, the leader of the Great Wall Army, sank like water. Of the 50,000 people killed in the Great Wall Army, only 150,000 remained.

"50,000 people were killed at one time, and there has never been such a loss."

Wang Li patrolled among the wounded Qin army. Half of the 100 wooden arrow towers were destroyed by the Chu army. The wooden fence and repelling horses were also destroyed, and many antlers were emitting black smoke.

"Tomorrow the Chu army is expected to launch a decisive battle, let Wei Qing and Zhang Han lead their troops to join in advance."

Chutian's Qi Xue army lost about 700 people in the melee.

The Qixue army was deployed on the arrow tower and mixed with the Great Wall army, and was killed by Xiang Yu and Jiangdong's children 700 times, but the Qiexue army shot cold arrows, and Jiangdong's children died and injured even more.

Sun Bin deduced: "The flanks of the Chu army were severely damaged, and the main force of the Qin army was believed to be at the end of its strength. Most likely, Xiang Yu would divide his troops to strengthen the flanks. We can concentrate the main force in the central army and fight Xiang Yu head-on. This is a false plan."

"False and real, real and false, the art of war is really terrible."

According to Sun Bin's idea, Chu Tian concentrated his main force and prepared to shake Xiang Yu.

Of the five major princes, only Tongque and Sun Jian's military strength is relatively complete, and the military strength of the other three princes has been severely damaged by Chutian, so there is basically nothing to fear.

Sun Bin said to the two generals, She Jian and Su Jiao, "Tomorrow will be a decisive battle, and the two generals will swear to stop the Chu army."

Shejian and Su Jiao said sharply: "I wish to fight to the death, until the last soldier, and never retreat!"

"My lord, please trust the two generals, what they said should not be false."

"Um."

Chu Tian didn't have enough generals at this time, so he could only trust She Jian and Su Jiao.

She Jian and Su Jiao are generals of Meng Tian's subordinates, probably because of Meng Tian's former subordinates, under the influence of Meng Tian, ​​they are upright.

In Zhang Han's camp, the general Zhang Han was injured in the battle with Xiang Yu. He planned to rest for a while before fighting Xiang Yu. However, Chu Tian sent Wei Qing to take over Zhang Han's cavalry.

"Two generals, the Chu army is rushing to attack, and the Qin army in the north will be defeated. We must go north to support without stopping, and we must arrive tomorrow!"

"Wei Qing, I will hand over 20,000 cavalry to you, and go north first."

"Can."

Wei Qing led 20,000 cavalry and headed north immediately.

According to the original plan, Wei Qing and Zhang Han went north in three days, but Xiang Yu wiped out 50,000 Qin troops in the first battle, and the offensive was more ferocious than Chu Tian imagined.

Zhang Han watched Wei Qing take away 20,000 cavalry, rectify the remnants, and then went north: "This man's ability is superior to mine, and he may be able to turn the tide."

The two generals, Sima Xin and Dong Yi, were surprised: "Even the generals say that. Could it be that they can save us Daqin?"

"We can only see if we can create a miracle in the battle with the Chu army tomorrow."

Zhang Han put the last of his troops into battle.

Zhang Han still had 100,000 Qin troops, Wei Qing took away 20,000 cavalry, and Zhang Han commanded 80,000 infantry, crossbowmen, and Lishan prisoners to go north.

To the north, Wangli still has 150,000 Qin soldiers, and Chutian has about 70,000 troops.

The strength of the Chu army was small, only 150,000 left.

The Zhao army in Julu City was 50,000, and the combined army of the princes in the north was 100,000.

Because of Xiang Yu's repeated victories, the coalition forces of the princes in the north and the Zhao army in Julu City are ready to move.

The next day, at the end of the night, Xia Liang opened his eyes and came out of the tent. 5,000 soldiers from the Shenji Battalion had already entered the second line of defense.

Xia Liang yawned, and the Qin army and the cavalry army on the first line of defense in front were wearing sticks, ready to fight to the death with the Chu army.

To the north, the 100,000 allied armies of princes who were watching from the wall finally began to go south, trying to attack the Qin army with Xiang Yu.

In Julu City, Zhang Er, Prime Minister of the State of Zhao, stood on the city wall and said to Zhao Wangxie: "General Xiang Yu of Chu State killed 100,000 Zhang Han in the first battle, and 50,000 Wang Li in World War II. We are invincible. We can cooperate with Xiang Yu and the north Let the princes join forces to attack the Qin army."
