Chapter 117 Return to Daliang City all night

The fire was bright around him. Ying Bu slowed down and took out his spear, and immediately threw it towards Xiang Yu behind him. Xiang Yu suddenly pulled his horse and swung it away with his right gun in his right hand to block it.

Chen Yu went to chase Li Mai's numerous cavalry, and the soldiers led by Ying Bu also fought with the Chu army twenty miles away from Daliang. Due to the obstruction of several woods, the Daliang defenders could not see the scene here at all.

When Xiang Yu saw Ying Bu turn around, he was a little surprised and turned to sneer, "Chen Shi was defeated by me, abandoned the broken halberd and fled. Today he fought with me, wanting to win. I said bluntly that you are defeated!"

Hearing this, Ying Bu was very angry and stopped answering him. He stepped forward and hit him hard. Xiang Yu was always strong, so he was not afraid. The two of them took advantage of the fire to travel back and forth for dozens of rounds, no victory or defeat.

However, the Qin army was defeated by the Chu army, and if they were not careful, they would be wiped out. Ying Bu seemed to find something wrong, so he had to turn around and rode his horse and signal the soldiers to retreat.

Ying Bu retreated and fought, Xiang Yu was chasing him, and the people fought to the dark place. Ying Bu no longer cared about Xiang Yu behind and ran straight forward.

Xiang Yu looked cautious and thought there was a deception, so he had to stop the war horse. At this moment, Long Qi also rushed back from the rear, with a cautious expression, "Report to the king, all the Qin thieves fled in all directions. Chen Yu and others have already gone to chase Li Mai, don't you know Ying Bu?"

"If you chase, if you don't capture Ying Bu, how can you convince the public? Zangtu Shuzi mocked someone again and again, because Ying Bu was the one who got Ding Tao, it was not my intention! Ying Bu was brave and he would lose Qin's troops!"

Long Qi was by his side and did not dare to refute, so he led the generals to chase him. Ying Bu was alone and there were no soldiers behind him, so he had no scruples in his heart and took advantage of the darkness.

On the other hand, Li Mai's cavalry was very fast, but he rushed outside Daliang City for a moment. At this moment, the gate of Daliang City was closed and only a few soldiers were guarding it. After all, after Dingtao, the guard was a little relaxed.

When the soldiers on the city gate tower saw someone coming, they couldn't help but feel a little confused and immediately shouted: "Who are you? The hour of Mao is approaching. Wait until the city gate opens, wait for a while."

Li Mai frowned and said, "I am Li Mai, deputy general of Dingtao. Now that Dingtao has been lost, please open the city gate quickly. If there is any mistake, can you bear it?"

The guard was above and saw Li Mai wearing ragged clothes, he felt a little dazed, and then waved his hand and said, "You can open the city gate. You are so brave to guard it, be careful to alarm Your Majesty!"

The soldiers next to him carefully opened the city gate and put these Qin soldiers in. Originally, Hu Hai wanted to rest in Xingyang, but because he knew that the matter was urgent, he led 10,000 cavalry with Feng Zheng and Meng Wen.

In the city where Li Mai entered, some soldiers recognized him as the deputy general, so they did not dare to delay and led him straight towards the Daliang Palace, "Where is Peng Yue now?"

The soldiers leading the way walked slowly and said seriously after hearing this: "Your Majesty came last night. The Marquis of Wei has already lived in the side hall. I wonder what you are looking for Marquis of Wei?"

"What? Your descendant, do you mean that reinforcements have arrived?" Li Mai said ecstatically.

"Lead ten thousand cavalry, and the rest will arrive at noon this day." The attendant said with a blank expression on his face.

While the two of them were talking, they came to the main hall of Daliang. At this moment, Hu Hai was sleeping. Feng Zheng from the front hall saw Li Mai in rags and blocked him directly.

"This general, please wait. Your Majesty is still resting?" Feng Zheng said calmly with a look of expression.

Li Mai looked up and down at Feng Zheng and immediately said seriously: "Boy from the Feng family, how can you know the national affairs! General Yingbu is still fighting against the Chu thieves outside the city. If you miss the time, I dare to ask you what you have to do. Your Majesty has always been for the country and the people. How could he punish you for such a matter? It would be better to get out of here quickly."

"You dare to ask you," Feng Zheng was shocked by Li Mai and asked in confusion.

"I am Li Mai, who is under the subordinate of the former General Wang Ben." Li Mai said loudly on purpose. Afterwards, Hu Hai heard the noise in front of him and walked out with a little sleepy eyes.

He yawned and asked Feng Zheng, "Why is it so noisy? It's just the hour of Mao?"

When Feng Zheng and Li Mai saw Hu Hai coming out, they immediately stepped forward and bowed: "I pay homage to Your Majesty, and I will live forever!"

Hu Hai narrowed his eyes and waved his hand, "Get up." He said that, rubbed his eyes, and then he saw clearly that General Li Mai was actually in front of him, and he was instantly inspired.

"Li Mai? Why are you here? Where is General Na Yingbu?" There were all worry in his words.

"Report to Your Majesty, General Yingbu is still outside the city and does not know the situation. This is my fault. I hope your Majesty will send troops to rescue me, and then I will punish me for neglecting my duties and leading the army to escape first!" Li Mai said very depressedly.

Hu Hai was beside him, shocked and pondered for a moment before saying to Feng Zheng: "Go and notify Peng Yue quickly and lead 5,000 troops to rescue. Be sure to bring Ying Bu back. Li Mai, please go down and rest, and then make a decision. The thief is impermanent, and you can do nothing. This is the case with the country, and it cannot be punished."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Li Mai said gratefully. To be honest, he did escape back on his own initiative, but there was nothing he could do about it.

Feng Zheng took the order and Li Mai was also supported by the servant and walked down. Hu Hai stretched a little, "It's time to get up at this time."

"Where is Meng Wen?" Hu Hai then realized that the son of Wuhou was following him. At this moment, there was no sign of people. The corner of his clothes was exposed in front of the desk. It was Meng Wen sleeping soundly.

Hu Hai walked to the desk reluctantly, "Cough cough cough!"

Meng Wen was awakened and saw Hu Hai standing in front of him, and hurriedly stood up to salute, "I am rude to you, I am trying to wake Feng Zheng up, so I slept for a while."

"No problem, there are still important things tomorrow. Don't get tired of your body. In the future, you and Feng Zheng will take turns to be on duty. I want to go to the city gate tower. Do you follow me? Or maybe stop?" Hu Hai asked with his sleeves in his arms.

"I am willing to go." Meng Wen nodded.

After receiving the order, Peng Yue immediately led his troops out of the city with Feng Zheng. Ying Bu ran away all night and spent many circles between Dingtao and Daliang in order to get rid of the Chu thief.

Xiang Yu behind him was like a jackal, following him reluctantly. There were less than a hundred soldiers following Ying Bu. Looking at the beam in front of him for only more than ten miles, the war horses ran all night, and there was no strength left.

"General, let's go, let's fight with you!" At this time, the Qin army, who was in the meeting with Ying Bu, said Cang Ran.

Although Ying Bu was reckless, he was still a loyal and righteous man. Seeing this, he immediately shouted: "Let's escape, don't fight with him! If not, fight with him! You will go back to Daliang to help rescue soldiers!"

Xiang Yu was in the rear, holding a spear, and was very happy, "Yingbu reckless man, quickly dismounted and surrendered. The city is still far away, and there is no help from both sides, why do you have to do this!"

"Hmph, loyal ministers do not serve the two masters, and righteous generals do not say anything to surrender. I have received kindness from Qin, how can I enter the nest of thieves? What do you mean by benevolence and righteousness?" Ying Bu shouted with all his last strength.

Just at this moment, a young general suddenly rushed out of the woods on both sides, and then thousands of troops rushed out. Xiang Yu looked surprised and immediately rode his horse to fight him.

The visitor was Feng Zheng. After receiving the order, he came to support him without stopping. Peng Yue was still behind and could not come immediately. Ying Bu's face relaxed when he saw the support of the person, and he rode his horse towards the city, just in time to meet Peng Yue.

"Who is the young general in front?" Ying Bu asked curiously.

"It's Feng Zheng, the grandson of Feng Jie. You will go back to the city to meet Your Majesty. The rest of the matter will be handed over to us!" Peng Yue finished speaking and immediately led his troops forward.
