Chapter 47: Zhang Han Begs to Surrender (Part 1)

Xiang Yu sat high in the Chu army's tent. At this time, he had an angry look on his face and stared quietly down at Han Xin, who was trying to persuade Xiang Yu.

Liu Bang moved to fight in Shenyuan. Han Xin predicted that Liu Bang had entered Nanyang and opened the entrance gate from Wuguan. He hoped that Xiang Yu would pay attention to Liu Bang. Liu Bang is Xiang Yu's real enemy. It only takes one battle to destroy Zhang Han. .But Xiang Yu was angry with Han Xin because Han Xin had conspired in the past to allow him to march westward to Xiangcheng. He still refused to reuse him.

"I think Han Xin's strategy can be used." Fan Zeng advised from the side. But Xiang Yu was unwilling to listen to anyone's advice. He stood up and looked at Fan Zeng coldly. He said urgently: "Father, I have made up my mind on this matter. You don't have to do it anymore." Speak for him."

At this time, Xiang Yu already respected Fan Zeng as his second father. Fan Zeng also became Xiang Yu's chief adviser for a time. At this time, Fan Zeng wanted to persuade Xiang Yu to pay attention to Liu Bang. But Xiang Yu believed that Liu Bang was not a member of a famous family. He only rose up temporarily and was not a formidable enemy. .but refused to obey.

Seeing that Xiang Yu still refused to listen to him, Han Xin finally gave up. He secretly made up his mind not to set up another plot for Xiang Yu. Just when Han Xin secretly decided to give up on Xiang Yu, a personal attendant walked in quickly. He came to Han Xin's side, cupped his hands and said, "General, the envoy from the State of Qin is asking for an audience outside the camp."

"No." Xiang Yu was furious at this time. But Fan Zeng coughed dryly and patiently advised: "The envoy of Qin is here. The general should not close the door. It is better to meet him."

There was a brief silence. Xiang Yu finally restrained the anger in his heart. He looked at his entourage and shouted: "Bring him in."

He followed Chang Nuo and left. Xiang Yu looked at Han Xin again and said bitterly: "You...step back."

Han Xin sang a promise and left in a hurry. At this time, Fan Zeng sighed helplessly: "Han Xin is indeed a general. Why don't you use him as a general?"

"You don't need to persuade me anymore. I won't use him." Xiang Yu refused decisively. Seeing that Xiang Yu still refused to use Han Xin, Fan Zeng had to say: "Since the general refuses to use him, why not kill him."

Xiang Yu was also shocked when he heard Fan Zeng proposed to kill Han Xin. He stared at Fan Zeng in surprise. Fan Zeng sneered: "If you don't use him for me, you will definitely kill him for me."

"I swear I won't do such a villainous act. Yafu, it's better not to say anything." Xiang Yu rejected Fan Zeng. At this time, rapid footsteps sounded outside the tent. Soon, Shicheng was led by the Chu army. .walked into the big tent. After entering the big tent, he came to the center. He looked at Xiang Yu who was high above him. A chilling air came over him. Shi Cheng felt his whole body trembling. He immediately knelt down on one knee and cupped his hands. : "The envoy of Qin Shicheng met General Xiang."

"Tell me why Zhang Han asked you to come." Xiang Yu's voice was cold. Seeing that Xiang Yu was vaguely angry, Shi Cheng had to be cautious. He was afraid of offending Xiang Yu. After thinking for a moment, Shi Cheng replied: "My general is deeply touched by Xiang Yu. The general is mighty. I am willing to surrender the 200,000 Qin troops. I hope..."

Before Shicheng could finish speaking, Xiang Yu was furious and said: "The hatred for killing my uncle is irreconcilable. I wish I could kill Zhang Han with my own hands. How can I accept his surrender? Go back and tell him. You can meet him at Ji tomorrow." Yuan bows his head and waits for orders. I will definitely take his dog’s head.”

After finishing speaking, Xiang Yu stood up angrily. Fan Zeng stood aside and wanted to interrupt. Xiang Yu waved his hand and said, "Uncle, there is no need to say more. I have made up my mind."

Xiang Yu walked towards the back tent. Long Qie stood up and shouted: "Come here, see off the guests."

...

Shicheng was rejected in the Chu camp. He hurried back to Jiyuan and rushed to Zhang Han's tent. At this time, Zhang Han was pacing in front of the map. He was extremely anxious. Seeing Shicheng, Zhang Han hurriedly asked : "How does Xiang Yu reply?"

"He... refused to accept the general's surrender." Shi Cheng sighed helplessly. After a moment of pause, Shi Cheng continued: "Xiang Yu also said that he would have a showdown with the general tomorrow."

Hearing Shicheng's last words, Zhang Han was sure that Xiang Yu was determined to fight with him. Recalling that Xiang Yu was brave and invincible on the battlefield and had the courage to be unstoppable, Zhang Han's heart became even stronger. Melancholy. How could I be Xiang Yu’s opponent?

Just when Zhang Han was thinking about it and couldn't calm down in his heart, a personal attendant shouted outside the tent: "General, there is a person who claims to be Chen Yu's personal attendant. He has a letter. He wants to send it to the general."

Zhang Han was a little surprised when he heard the other party mention Chen Yu's name. At this time, he looked at Shicheng who was aside. He waved his hand helplessly. Shicheng retreated. At this time, Zhang Han ordered outside the tent. : "Bring him in."

After a while, a personal attendant brought a plainly dressed middle-aged man. The man walked into the tent, knelt down on one knee, and saluted Zhang Han. Then he took out the letter from his arms and handed it to Zhang Han with both hands. First, he took a look at the man. He saw that he was indeed from the military and had a strong build. He took the letter and opened it to read. At the top, Chen Yuduo advised Zhang Han to make plans early. If he could not fight, it would be better to surrender to Chu. The Qin Dynasty Specialize in killing meritorious officials. They will die if they have meritorious service. They will also die if they have no merit.

After reading it, Zhang Han couldn't help but let out a long sigh. Why didn't he want to surrender to the Chu army? But Xiang Yu...

Is it just because he killed Xiang Liang in the first battle? Everyone is his own master. Why should he be so fussy about it? The more Zhang Han thought about it, the more annoyed he became. He returned the letter to the sender and sighed softly: "Please tell General Chen Yu for me. He If so, I’ve written it down.”

The man left. Only Zhang Han was left in the tent. At this time, he walked to the map and stared at it closely. He was silent for a long time. Zhang Han had considered breaking out of the siege and heading towards Sanchuan County many times. marched, but Zhang Han was always worried that Xiang Yu would not let him go willingly. Once he retreated, it would trigger a war between Qin and Chu in advance. But today, Xiang Yu took the initiative to propose a battle. Zhang Han felt that his heart suddenly became at ease. Already.

In this way, Zhang Han spent a difficult night sighing and regretting.

In the early morning, when Zhang Han was still lying half-lying beside the desk, one of his followers hurried in. He didn't care whether Zhang Han was awake or not. He hurriedly shouted: "General, it's not good. The Chu army is in trouble." Settling camp."

Hearing the word "Chu Army", Zhang Han sat up. Before he could react, he instinctively picked up the long sword on the table and hurried out of the tent. As soon as he walked out of the tent, he met his son Zhang Ping. Zhang Han hurriedly asked: "Where are the Chu troops now?"

Zhang Ping saw that his father already knew that the Chu army was attacking the camp, so he replied: "Father, the Chu army has crossed Sanhujin and is heading towards Jiyuan. The first wave of Chu army, about 7,000 people, has been shot by us. The formation is blocked outside the camp."

Hearing that the Chu army did not attack the camp, Zhang Han felt a little relieved. But after thinking about it, he found that the Chu army was unstoppable and that no ordinary person could resist it. Zhang Han had to fight in person. He had to order: "Prepare your horses. I will go and see for myself." look."

Under the protection of everyone, Zhang Han came to the front camp of Dazhai. He walked up to the watchtower and looked into the distance. There were red yaya. He didn't know how many Chu troops were ahead. This made Zhang Han couldn't help but think of the formation of the army yesterday. According to the news, Xiang Yu has agreed to fight to the death with him today. Could it be that the Chu army will attack the city so soon?

With surprise and suspicion, Zhang Han walked down the watchtower, took the reins from his attendants, and climbed on his horse. At this time, outside the Dazhai, although the archers kept shooting arrows, they had resisted the Chu army. However, the Chu army's shield soldiers and cavalry Suppressed with all their strength. There were also non-stop counterattacks with crossbows in the ranks. The casualties of the Qin army were increasing day by day. Zhang Han looked at it for a long time and couldn't help but sigh: "If we defend the camp like this, sooner or later the Qin army will trample it."

With a sigh, Zhang Han looked at Dong Yi who was not far away and ordered: "Gather the troops. Follow me and rush out."

"Dong dong dong" the rumbling drums echoed in the Chu camp, and the low horns whimpered. Suddenly, the gate of the camp slowly opened. Zhang Han took the lead, leading 20,000 Qin troops to gallop towards the Chu army on the opposite side.

The Qin army's horses were churning, and their giant shields echoed those of the Ge soldiers. They followed the cavalry and advanced. Soon, after running hundreds of steps, they encountered the Chu army.

The two armies collided with each other and made a "boom" sound. The Chu army was suddenly counterattacked by the Qin army and was killed by surprise. Even Long Qie, who had always been good at conquering and fighting, was disrupted by Zhang Han. A halberd almost almost killed him. He slapped Long Qie on the head. With panic, Long Qie hurriedly reined in his horse and retreated.

Seeing that the Chu army was dispersed, Long Qie fled in a hurry. Zhang Han followed closely on his horse and chased reluctantly. For a time, the morale of the Qin army was greatly boosted. The soldiers shouted and roared, and once again found their former rampage. It felt like a battlefield. The Chu army's shield formation in the middle was broken through and they began to retreat across the board.

On the side, Zhang Ping saw his father defeating the Chu army. His blood boiled with excitement. He waved his spear excitedly. He swung it forward and roared: "Follow me and kill him."

Another wave of nearly 10,000 Qin cavalry troops rushed out of the stronghold and rushed towards the retreating Chu army.

The war drums beat louder and louder. The low sound of horns whimpered in the air. Suddenly, in the direction of the Chu army's retreat, fierce war drums sounded again. The retreating soldiers of the Chu army began to turn around and counterattack. Then, a wave of nearly ten thousand people The Chu army's cavalry group rushed over. For a moment, this team encountered the Qin army. The two sides started a fierce fight.

Zhang Han thought he could defeat the Chu army in one fell swoop. However, he did not expect that the Chu army's reinforcements would arrive on the battlefield so quickly. The dragon he had just chased had already turned his horse and was ready to fight Zhang Han. But suddenly from behind him... A general came out. He was wearing silver armor and holding a big halberd in his hand. He was majestic. He was Xiang Yu.

At this time, Xiang Yu roared and went straight to Zhang Han to kill. Zhang Han, who had once fought fiercely with Dingtao and killed Xiang Liang by luck, was right in front of him. This time, Xiang Yu would not let him go no matter what. Zhang Han. He wants to avenge his uncle. He wants to fight to the death for the rise of the Xiang family.

When he met Xiang Yu for the first time, the fear in Zhang Han's heart ignited again. He hurriedly waved his halberd to fight Xiang Yu. The two horses crossed each other. Their weapons suddenly collided with a huge impact. Sparks flew from the two weapons, accompanied by the rapid impact of the horses. The two soon separated again.

Xiang Yu and Zhang Han each ran for dozens of steps. They stopped their horses and turned around to look at each other. Their eyes met. On the battlefield where thousands of horses and troops were fighting, they both knew that a battle was inevitable. It’s about to begin…
