Legends in Chu and Han - C302
Long Tianyu took the letter and impatiently opened Yueyao’s silk. The words on it were beautiful and elegant, the calligraphy in her hands were like dancing phoenixes, they were extremely beautiful and imposing.
The words mentioned that she was together with Yu Ji, that she had been sent by Fan Zeng to be placed under house arrest on the Lan Tian Road, that she would take care of Ji Er and herself on her way, that they would try to meet one day, that there would inevitably be a few words that they would miss each other, and that after that, she would introduce Chen Ping to the Dragon Army.
After reading it twice, fortunately, he had spent this entire year learning Qin Xiaocheng’s body and also gained a lot of historical and cultural knowledge. As such, he quickly took note of the written and written letters, and even though he had read them twice, he was still able to understand them well. He sighed in his heart: Fan Zeng, this old fox, had left these seven thousand rogue soldiers as bait, and had long taken Yu Ji and Wan’er to Lantian City, which was fifty miles away.
After wasting so much time here, perhaps Fan Zeng had set up sentries here when he saw that he was being chased. He would definitely gallop on his horse, so if he continued to chase, wouldn’t he be unable to break through the city? Four or five thousand men would attack the city, but they couldn’t attack it during the day. They also didn’t have any siege equipment, so breaking through the city would be extremely difficult.
The first sentence that Chen Ping wrote was actually, “When Jun read this letter, I believe that the seven thousand Chu Army s that were left behind have already broken through and captured this lowly one, Sima Mao. However, I have also lost the opportunity to chase after Fan Zeng …”
Long Tianyu’s heart trembled, just from these few sentences, it was evident that Chen Ping was not an average person!
It was written below: Fan Zeng had sent troops to guard Yu Ji and Yueyao, and to retreat all the way to Lan Tian, mainly to lure the king away from the mountain, all in order to make him leave the mountain, all in order to make him fight outside the city, all in the Chu Army, if Pei Gong himself led troops to Lan Tian, it would make the Xianyang’s army empty, and all the people in the city would be unstable, Old Qin would not let this go, if the guards were too weak, there would be nobles starting a riot, which was one of them; Xiang Yu brought an army of soldiers, facing the enemy, if they had the advantage and annihilated the allied forces, they would definitely counterattack the Xianyang, if not, no one could stop King Chu on the battlefield.
‘s actions were to force Pei Gong into a corner in the future, and as a bargaining chip between them, they would be able to turn the situation around and win. Before that, they would have no worries in their lives … If he could capture Xiang Yu or the other Five Tigers General, in exchange for what might be a good idea, he would pay respects to Pei Gong as a benevolent master, and would be willing to give in to him. If Pei Gong did not mind, he will do his best to protect the two Dragon Sisters until he is safely sent back to Pei Gong not long later … ”
Long Tianyu was afraid that he might have missed something, he read the letter twice, after understanding the gist of it, he maintained a cool head, and carefully thought about the current situation. Indeed, it was as Chen Ping had analyzed, with every sentence reaching the right point, he sighed: “Chen Ping is indeed Chen Ping, his intelligence and talent is not inferior to Fan Zeng at all. Heaven’s will has fallen! ”
He somersaulted down from his horse and walked to Sima Mao, who was kneeling on the ground, along with the five hundred soldiers, and smiled: “General Chen Ping sincerely wants to rely on our loyal army, and has plans to offer them up, I am very happy, you are Chen Ping’s sworn brother, and are recommended in the letter, and coincidentally, my army has talents as a general. You are no longer a direct descendant of the Chu Army, but a general of my Dragon Army, and are temporarily conferred the title of Cockroach.
Sima Mao was overjoyed, but he was afraid that the other party’s position would be too low, and that his words would not be accurate, he asked suspiciously: “Thank you for your kindness, general, which general is this under Pei Gong?”
Long Tianyu smiled, and looked at Zhang Yun, who replied him: “Sima Mao, this is the Pei Gong whose name shook the world, and who single-handedly shook the entire underworld! Didn’t you just say that you wanted to meet my master? Are you satisfied now? ”
“Pei Gong?” Sima Mao and the other five hundred soldiers all stared widely, in the past few exchanges, they had never fought directly with the Dragon Army, so they had never seen Long Tianyu like this. Now that they had heard Pei Gong’s name, they immediately bowed and kowtowed: “Greetings, Pei Gong, Sima Mao is willing to follow Pei Gong till death!”
“We are all willing to follow Pei Gong to our deaths!” Over five hundred people shouted in unison, their voices were quite loud.
Long Tianyu nodded his head: “Okay, this general will reward you clearly, only things are not the right way, those who are capable will be promoted in the Dragon Army, and they will not practice favoritism!”
Sima Mao was ecstatic. He had been being suppressed in the Chu Army, especially since Xiang Yu did not give Chen Ping any more importance, allowing the rest of them to take over the rear of the army camp to take on the missions of protection, blockade and logistics. How could she be willing to do that? Long had the heart to seek the enlightened lord, the Dragon Army that submitted to him today was invincible, and it was in their hearts!
“Hehe, in the future when we go to war on the battlefield, there will be hope for a successful career. The rewards and punishments within the Dragon Army are clear, unlike the sarcasm and ridicule from the direct line of descent in the Xiang Army. Following the Dragon Army to fight the world, even death would be a glorious death!” Sima Mao and the other officers all thought the same, as their morale rose.
Long Tianyu did not want to delay any longer, so he immediately gave the order: “Let’s all ride, go back and fight to the death with Chu Army!”
“Kill!” Kill! Kill! ” The Dragon Army soldier roared, as though the battle just now had not been over, he urged his horse and galloped back in the direction of the Xianyang, causing the entire ground to shake for no reason.
The Qi Jun, the Korean army, the, the Wu Rui army, the Wu Rui army, Zhang Yao and the other generals had led forty thousand Qin Soldier to chase down the remaining twenty to thirty thousand defeated troops. The troops from the Qi Jun, the Wei Jun army, the Wu Rui army, the Shen Yang army were all defeated and slaughtered, scaring the lord and his men to the north gate of the Xianyang to the point where they were praying that they did not get killed by this damned Chu Army, otherwise, if they became dukes with no authority, who would give them face?
Suddenly, from the right side of the road towards the north gate, a burst of sound could be heard. The swishing sound was extremely powerful, the leaves on the trees were all blown around by the strong wind, Lu Jianli, Zhang Yao and the rest of the soldiers were at the front, hearing the noise, they immediately turned to look, only to see a dense number of light dots flashing under the morning light, and the light dots rain down from the sky, chillingly cold.
“Not good, there’s an ambush! Quickly defend!” Lu Jianli shouted to the people behind him, at the same time, he waved his sword and used the Swordflower to block the arrows.
In a flash, a cold light flashed, the soldiers turned around, but their hands were not as nimble as his, there were already hundreds of people shot, their screams continued without end, the blood that splashed out dyed the armor of the people around them red, these Qin Soldier s immediately set up a simple defense, many people with shields gathered at the front to form a shield wall, reducing the threat of long-range arrows attacks.
The ambush soldiers shot out a few more arrows, killing and injuring two to three thousand enemy soldiers, seeing that the threat of arrows was getting weaker and weaker, blocked by the shield, and at the same time, a large group of people suddenly jumped out from the forest. The person in front was the great general Fan Kuai, holding onto his eight python spear, he shouted angrily: “Bastard Zhang Han, to chase this far, is the place where you will die, die!”
Immediately, he led his troops and rushed out, behind them were Hidden Tea, Zhang Er, Zhang Ao, Zhao Xin, Yan Zhao and her men, as well as six or seven thousand dragons, they pierced right through Zhang Han’s vital parts, striking towards the Chu Army troops that were formed by the Qin Soldier. There was no mercy on the battlefield, only by killing all of them before the enemies could kill you, would there be a way out!
