Chapter 6 The House of Flying Daggers
Chen Yu stepped onto the black horse again and raised the halberd. Looking at the flags and thousands of Chu soldiers, listening to the sound of the wind and the loud chants of the eagle above his head, Chen Yu inexplicably developed a passion: commanding thousands of troops and horses, and spreading the battlefield in the world. Isn’t it what every man dreams of? Now God has given me this opportunity. If I let these 100,000 passionate men down, I will be really shameless to face the elders of Jiangdong.
"Three Army sons, Liu Bang's son was untrustworthy, tore up the alliance, so that we could not return home. Behind us is the 400,000 Han army who were eyeing me in one bite. If we don't defeat Liu Bang's son, we will never have peace. Today you will follow the orphan king again. Do you have the confidence to defeat the Han army?" Chen Yu held up his painting halberd and made a general mobilization before the war.
"The King of Western Chu, invincible! The King of Western Chu, invincible!..." The hundred thousand Chu soldiers shouted like one person, and the shouts were shocking the sky and the earth. Even the eagle soaring in the sky were so scared that they flapped their wings and flew higher.
Chen Yu held the painting halberd in his hand tightly and secretly shouted in his heart: The King of Western Chu is indeed invincible! Since he started to rebel against Qin, Xiang Yu has never suffered a defeat once, and this time he will not be defeated!
"Report! A large number of Han troops appeared in front of him." The detective came to report.
So fast? Chen Yu frowned, then he opened his eyes wide open, shouting: "Set up the formation, I want to meet the leader of the Han army."
The red Han army team had arrived. Seeing that the Chu army was ready for battle, they stopped moving forward and suppressed their positions. A large flag surged out of the central army, with the word "Han" embroidered on it.
Han? Could it be Han Xin? Chen Yu thought about it, and immediately stepped forward and shouted in a deep voice: "Is the one who comes Han Xin?"
The cavalry opposite also rushed forward and replied loudly: "Old King, don't be fine, Han Xin is polite."
It was indeed Han Xin. Chen Yu looked carefully and saw that the man had a jade face, his eyes were like beads, and the golden helmet on his head seemed a little dazzling under the sunlight. Is this Han Xin, known as the immortal of military strategists? Is this Han Xin, who was arranged by Xiang Yu as a guard?
"I was under the orphan tent back then, but I didn't expect that one day you would be the one who would be the enemy of orphans, Han Xin." Chen Yu pointed at the halberd and said.
"Han Xin thought of this day under the Overlord's tent." Han Xin chuckled.
As expected, there was a general like a general, why didn’t Xiang Yu notice it before? Chen Yu couldn’t help but feel disappointed. If Xiang Yu had appreciated Han Xin back then, the villain Liu Bang would have been embarrassed now.
However, it is already like this. It is useless to say more, and it is useless to regret more. Chen Yu knew that delaying time would only be bad for him, so he laughed loudly and said, "Then, let's compete today and see who is the real invincible world."
Han Xin was not polite either. With a wave of the handsome flag, thousands of Han troops rushed over. For a moment, the red flags were everywhere in the mountains and fields, and it was very powerful to swallow thousands of miles.
Good! Chen Yu's chest was filled with a thousand pride and his hand raised his halberd: "Brothers of Chu Army, follow the orphan king - kill!"
Perhaps Xiang Yu's arrogant spirit was still circling in this body. Chen Yu felt his blood surge upwards, and the black horses under his arm and the weapons in his hands emitted endless heat, driving him to move forward bravely and knock down Han generals one by one.
If we talk about Xiang Yu's Chu army, the combat capability is definitely the first-class today. At that time, he defeated Zhang Han's 200,000 Qin troops. Now he meets the Han army, which is also inheriting the glorious tradition of the Chu army. They all bravely move forward and kill the Han army to flee in a panic.
The "Han" flag began to move backwards. Han Xin also retreated backwards under the crowd of people.
"Catch Han Xin, reward ten thousand yuan, and grant ten thousand yuan of marquis!" Chen Yu remembered the way Liu Bang treated Xiang Yu recorded in "Records of the Grand Historian".
The Chu army had already become more murderous, and their eyes were red. When they heard the overlord's heavy reward, they threw all their fatigue aside. They all went down the mountain like tigers, killing Han soldiers like sheep to cry and cry, and they only regretted that their parents had fewer legs, threw down their weapons and flags and fled back.
"Chasing!" Chen Yu also became more and more ecstatic when he saw the Han army defeated. He danced with a painting halberd and commanded the Chu army to pursue him.
As soon as they chased after a few miles, the Han army on both sides seemed to have emerged from the ground, roaring out with the generals.
"Overlord, we are ambushed!" a general exclaimed.
Chen Yu was already shrouded in his murderous spirit, and his painting halberd was raised: "What are you afraid of? No matter how many Han troops are, it is not enough for our Chu brothers to eat. The Chu brothers killed these bastards and each of them would give them a thousand guan of money when they go back!"
The Chu army was in full swing. Although they were ambushed, none of them rushed towards the Han army like crazy. As the saying goes, the soft ones are afraid of hard ones, and the hard ones are afraid of life. The Han army is considered brave enough, but who has ever seen such a Chu army that is afraid of life? So from the courage to be brave, the Han army lost one level, and the front rows of people were unfavorable to fight, the rear army was quickly defeated.
"You must catch Han Xin! Grab him better than defeating the 300,000 army. Capture him and defeat Liu Bang is just around the corner." Chen Yu was a little lost in his heart, and left the Han army on both sides and chased Han Xin in the middle.
After chasing for seven or eight miles again, two more Han troops broke out on both sides, blocking Chen Yu's way out.
Chen Yu was puzzled. Han Xin was using his troops like a god. He gradually retreated, but he always couldn't escape. Every time he chased him, a large number of Han troops arrived. Could it be that this was his "ten-sided ambush?"
Thinking of this, a hint of chill rose in Chen Yu's heart. He had indeed killed a little just now, so he pursued him all the way, and now he is probably going deeper.
He was really careless! Fortunately, he knew history but still couldn't escape the shackles of history, and he was still caught in Han Xin's trick of "ambushing the world". It seems that Han Xin is really not simple. Even though he has the advantage of knowing history, he was easily fooled in front of a dragon and a phoenix like him. He really underestimated the ancients.
"Three Army men, retreat!" Chen Yu had to issue an order to retreat, although he was still a little unwilling to accept it.
"Report!" A spy came, "Overlord, the big Han army has blocked our army's retreat."
Chen Yu was shocked. He was indeed the trick of this bastard Han Xin!
"The Han general who blocked our army's way was Kong Xi who was let go by the overlord!" The spy continued to report.
"Kong Xi?" Chen Yu smiled bitterly, "As a matter of being besieged us, Kong Xi!"
No matter who blocks the way, he has to fight for a way out. Chen Yu waved his halberd and shouted: "The army turns around and kills back! Those who block our Chu army will die!"
