After Xiang Yu set up the military camp, Yafu arrived. Everyone welcomed Yafu into the camp. At this time, Chen Yu came up and said to Xiang Yu: "General, Qin General Shejian has escaped. If he is not captured, there will be trouble in the future." Xiang Yu asked who was going to pursue him. Chen Yu said enthusiastically: "General, Julu has been relieved. The Zhao people cannot repay your kindness. Just leave Shejian to me." Xiang Yu was overjoyed and ordered Chen Yu to capture Shejian. Chen Yu immediately accepted the order, and he and Zhang Ao led their troops to hunt down Shejian.
When lunch was approaching, Zhang Er personally came to Chu camp to invite Xiang Yu and others to the city to attend the banquet, because by this time Zhang Ao had brought rich food from outside the city. Everyone came to the city. After sitting down, King Zhao and Zhang Er took turns toasting to Xiang Yu and thanked him again and again for saving Zhao. After drinking for three rounds, Zhang Er stood up and asked Xiang Yu: "General, what are you going to do with Qin General Wang Li?" Xiang Yu ordered his soldiers to escort Wang Li in. After a while, Wang Li was taken away. Xiang Yu angrily said to Wang Li: "Your grandfather Wang Jian killed my grandfather. Now I want to use your head to commemorate my grandfather. What else do you have to say?" Wang Li replied in a neither humble nor condescending manner: "Prisoners below the rank, You can kill or scrape at your will, please do as you please!" Seeing that he was also a tough guy, Xiang Yu said, "Don't you have anything to say?" Wang Li said, "What did you say? I can only hate..." Wang Li gritted his teeth with hatred. . Xiang Yu asked him what he hated. Wang Li said resolutely: "I can only regret that fifteen years ago, after the Qin State destroyed Chu, my grandfather did not eradicate your Xiang family, and that is why today's disaster happened!" Xiang Yu heard this and said angrily: "Qin State's xianzheng The people of the world are resisting, and the destruction of Qin is right in front of us! Since your Wang family did not exterminate our Xiang family more than ten years ago, you should eradicate your Wang family now!" Wang Li said: "You just kill me, and you will do nothing to Qin. There is no damage at all. The terrain in Guanzhong is dangerous, and there are hundreds of thousands of troops. You can't break through the pass?" Xiang Yu said disdainfully: "My Wuzui horse can conquer the Qin Pass, and my Canglong Moon Swallowing Halberd can Sweeping thousands of armies, how can Qin Guan resist the Chu people's cavalry?" Wang Li laughed and said: "I heard that after you captured Xiangcheng, there were almost no people left alive in the city. A thug like you who kills innocent people indiscriminately is Even if he has an army of millions, he will not conquer the world? Hahaha!" Xiang Yu was so angry that he ordered his soldiers to push Wang Li out and kill him. Wang Li laughed loudly and turned around without changing his expression.
Xiang Yu was shocked and suddenly called Wang Li and said: "You helped the tyrants to do evil, and I finally surrendered. Now you are about to die, but you are still laughing. Is it because you are not convinced?" Wang Li said: "Of course you are not convinced! It's not you who cut off my food. "The soldiers are all hungry, how can you attack my camp?" Xiang Yu said coldly: "Since you don't accept it, can we have another big fight in front of the two armies in the future?" Wang Li said: "Hehe. ! Am I afraid of you?" Xiang Yu asked the sergeant to temporarily imprison Wang Li and serve him well. When King Zhao and Zhang Er saw that Xiang Yu would not kill Wang Li, they hurriedly said: "General, please don't let him go! I remember when Bai Qi killed 400,000 of my Zhao army in a trap, and Wang Jian also defeated the Chu army. This hatred is not Report, we Zhao people and you Chu people have been uneasy for generations!" Xiang Yu said: "Prime Minister, don't be anxious, I will be in front of the two armies tomorrow, I have a reason!" After hearing this, Zhang Er did not dare to say anything else . However, the soldiers and civilians of Zhao State hated Wang Li very much, and they wanted to cook him immediately and use his dead body to feed the dogs.
When the generals from various countries heard that the Chu army had won, they walked out of the camp together. They saw the scattered equipment and unburned fires still smoking, and the entire battlefield was filled with mountains of corpses. They arrived at the battlefield. When they saw the dead bodies with missing arms and legs, their faces turned pale with fear. Then they tiptoed past the battlefield to the east and came to the east gate to see Xiang Yu. Zhao Jun, who was guarding the gate, reported in. When Xiang Yu heard that the generals of the coalition forces had come to see him, he said angrily: "Where did they hide when we fought with Wang Li? What are they doing here now? They're gone!" Fan Zeng said to Xiang Yu: "General, Although Julu has been relieved, Zhang Han's army is still there. Now our army is very tired. They have help when they come. How can they not be seen?" Yingbu also smiled and said: "That's right, it's a scarecrow. Can you also scare wolves?" Hearing this, the generals burst into laughter. Xiang Yu said: "Then let them station their troops and horses in the south of the city. If Zhang Han comes to attack, go and resist for a while. If you don't dare, let them take their own troops and go back!" The generals from all over the world heard this. , ashamed and frightened, they followed Xiang Yu's instructions and brought their troops to the south of Chu camp to form a formation, preparing to resist Zhang Han's attack.
In Jiyuan's camp, Zhang Han was so shocked that he was speechless for a long time when he learned that Xiang Yu had defeated the Great Wall Army and captured Wang Li. Early that morning, he saw the officers and soldiers of the Great Wall Army fleeing back to his camp one after another, and Zhang Han hurried out to express his condolences. Seeing that everyone was starving, he immediately ordered the sergeant to start cooking so that everyone could have a full meal first. Zhang Han frowned and felt extremely sad when he saw them devouring their food. As a veteran general, he couldn't figure it out. In just one night, Xiang Yu defeated the 100,000 Great Wall Army and was completely defeated. Why is the Chu army so powerful? Is that Leng Wa, who is in her twenties, really the nemesis of Qin? Is the Qin Kingdom really coming to an end? What is even more tragic is that the commander-in-chief of Qin's border army, Wang Li, a famous star, was also captured by Xiang Yu. He is now trapped in the enemy camp, and he doesn't know whether he is dead or alive? He quickly sent out several waves of envoys and went to Chu camp with generous gifts, hoping to reach some agreement with Xiang Yu, or to have him make some harsh demands and release Wang Li.
"Report!" Suddenly a hurried voice came, and then a sergeant ran into the camp holding something. When he saw Zhang Han, he reported in panic: "General Zhang, the envoy we sent was killed by Xiang Yu again. Yes, this is..." Zhang Han looked at the bloody head and was so panicked that he quickly signaled to the sergeant to take out the head and bury it. At this time, all the generals had no idea, so they asked Zhang Han: "General, it seems that Xiang Yu will not let General Wang come back. What should we do?" Zhang Han pondered for a long time and said: "Rather than suffer Please, it’s better to end it with them, otherwise the rebel army will become even more arrogant!" After Zhang Han finished speaking, he immediately summoned the two Great Wall Army generals Han Zhang and He Huan who had escaped from Julu, and asked them first After checking the battle situation last night, he checked Han Zhang's injuries. The two made a detailed report on the situation, and Han Zhang also said that his health was not serious. Zhang Han asked the two to continue participating in the battle, and then gathered the team.
In the afternoon, a thick layer of dark clouds suddenly rolled up in the southwest sky. Then strong winds came and the dark clouds rolled towards the giant deer. This seemed to indicate that another war was coming. Zhang Han divided the Qin army into two echelons: the first echelon was composed of infantrymen, who were fully armed, holding a large shield in their left hand and a long weapon in their right hand, walking menacingly behind; the second echelon was composed of chariot soldiers and cavalry, fighting The chariots were arranged in a rectangular battle formation to clear the way in front, and the fully armed cavalry followed behind the chariots. Zhang Han stood on a chariot in the middle and commanded the entire army. On his left are Chief Shi Sima Xin and Captain Dong Yi, and on his right are his younger brother Zhang Ping and General Han Zhang of the Great Wall Army, each driving a chariot. The chariot is also equipped with a shooter and a driver, both of whom are fully armed. After the formation was formed, the soldiers of the Qin army were at war with each other, shouting slogans of revenge for Wang Li, and drove towards Julu in a mighty manner. In a short time, the dark Qin army appeared on the southern plain of Julu City. As they marched, they beat the war drums so loudly that the mountains resounded, and the black banners covered the sky and the sun. The majestic marching sound was simply disturbing. The mountains and rivers are trembling, and the earth is groaning.
The coalition forces heard the Qin army beating drums and knew that Zhang Han was attacking, so they quickly sent someone to report to Xiang Yu. After a while, Zhang Han's army arrived at Julu. When the generals of the coalition forces saw how powerful the Qin army was, they were all panicked and at a loss. At this time, Xiang Yu and the generals of Zhao State were standing on the high Julu City and watching. They carefully observed the Qin army's formation. When the Qin army arrived, they used shields to form a neat and strict barrier. When King Zhao saw that the Qin army was so timid, he was so frightened that he trembled all over. Xiang Yu, however, seemed to have nothing to do and asked Fan Zeng calmly and calmly: "Father, Zhang Han is here to ask for someone." Fan Zeng said, "Let me say something first to dampen Zhang Han's spirit." Xiang Yu said He led Fan Zeng and a group of Chu army generals down the city. They rode to the forefront of the coalition position and stood immediately. When the coalition generals saw Xiang Yu coming, they immediately became proud.
Seeing Xiang Yu's arrival, Zhang Han shouted: "Xiang Yu, you traitor to the country, hand over General Wang as soon as possible, otherwise I will avenge the Great Wall Army!" Fan Zeng came out and said: "General Zhang, please calm down and listen to me. : Your Qin State, the second generation is extremely mediocre, and coupled with Zhao Gao's dictatorship, the people are already miserable. Because of this, the talents of the Six Kingdoms have risen up. Everyone has only one goal, which is to march into Xianyang and eradicate the evil government. Think about it. I miss you Qin State, which has long lost its former glory. Qin State’s territory is limited to Guanzhong, and Qin State’s hegemony has long been gone. But you can’t see the situation clearly and continue to help the evildoers! Now that Wang Li has been arrested, with the How can you save the Qin State with your own strength? Think about you being isolated and helpless outside, and being jealous of traitors inside. Even if you win the battle, can Zhao Gao let you go?" After hearing Fan Zeng's words, Zhang Han didn't know How to answer, but the army was also silent, everyone was listening to Fan Zeng's words quietly. But Zhang Han was afraid that the morale of the army would be weakened, so he hurriedly said: "Old man, don't confuse the public with your lies! More than ten years ago, as soon as our Qin army came out of the border, the people of the six countries collapsed without fighting, and your alliance will never be We cannot defeat Qin. Now Qin has transferred another hundred thousand elite troops from the north. General Zhao Hai will arrive at Julu City in the near future. When the army arrives, you will die without a burial place!" Zhang Han finished. , and shouted to the people in the formation: "Who is going to chop off the old man's head to strengthen the army?"
As soon as he finished speaking, He Huan was eager to avenge the Great Wall Army and responded. But when he came to the middle of the formation of the two armies, he heard a "swish" sound and immediately fell off his horse. Zhang Han was shocked. It turned out that Xiang Yu was furious when he heard Zhang Han scolding his father. He shot He Huan to death with an arrow before he arrived at the position, giving the Qin army a disincentive. Seeing that He Huan was dead, Xiang Yu laughed and said, "Who dares to come to fight?" He saw that the Qin army was completely silent. Seeing that no one dared to challenge him, Zhang Han said to Xiang Yu: "If you don't hand over General Wang Li, we will have to decide the outcome!" Xiang Yu shouted and ordered Wang Li to be escorted up. After a while, the Chu army brought Wang Li to the front of the formation. Xiang Yu shouted to the Qin army's position: "Wang Li, the grandson of Wang Jian, the son of Wang Ben, and the commander-in-chief of the Great Wall Army, is here. Who among you will save him?" Xiang Yu's voice frightened the Qin army. Zhang Han felt extremely relieved to see that General Wang Li was still alive, but he could only look ahead dreamily and did not dare to rescue him rashly. He just had to wait and see how Xiang Yu would deal with it next.
When Xiang Yu saw that no one came to save Wang Li, he pointed at Wang Li angrily and said, "You Qin slaves are all cowards and cowards! Did you see that? No one came to save you. You, as the commander-in-chief, are really embarrassed!" Let the sergeants untie Wang Li. Others were shocked when they heard this, thinking that Xiang Yu was going to let Wang Li go, so someone stepped forward and shouted: "General, you must not let him go?" Xiang Yu said loudly to Wang Li: " Aren't you dissatisfied? You also said that I cut off your food supply. Today, after you have eaten enough, we will compete in front of the two armies! I want everyone to see who is you and me. With great martial arts skills, who is the best hero in the world? Do you dare? If you defeat me, you can go back and reorganize the army to fight. I, Xiang Yu, will never break my promise!" People were surprised when they heard Xiang Yu's words, thinking that Xiang Yu It's crazy. If Wang Li wins and lets go, won't everyone's efforts on the battlefield be in vain? But Xiang Yu seemed very confident at this time. Wang Li was also very surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect Xiang Yu to say such things, so he shouted excitedly: "This is what you said, don't go back on it then!" Xiang Yu said: "Once I have said it, It's hard to catch up with a horse!" Wang Li felt that there was hope of rebirth, and he immediately became energetic and asked Xiang Yu: "How do you compete? You have weapons and horses, but I don't?" Xiang Yu jumped off his horse and inserted the moon-swallowing halberd into his horse. On the ground, he walked up to the warriors in front of the formation, took two pairs of spears and shields from their hands, and then threw one of them to Wang Li. This move is to show everyone that the weapons they hold are the same, and it depends on who is more skilled in martial arts. When Wang Li saw the weapon thrown over, it was as if he saw a life-saving straw. He quickly walked over and picked up the weapon.
Next, the two began to compete. This will be a duel between two commanders. This will be an unparalleled battle. The two began to fight one after another. They thrust their weapons at each other, either slashing or stabbing, using 80% of their strength. When the opponent's weapon struck, the shields of the two played a huge role. Once the spear tip hit the hard shield, sparks flew out. Every move the two made used all their strength, making it impossible for the other party to respond. They have brought the Sanda in traditional Chinese martial arts to the extreme. Every move has the brute force of a doer, as well as the graceful routine of a martial artist, and is done step by step with wonderful tricks. The soldiers on both sides were dumbfounded at this time. They gave out thunderous cheers in unison, and they all cheered for their respective commanders. The performance of the two generals at this time also showed the world that they will be men among men, heroes among heroes, and unparalleled generals and fighters. After they had a serious and thorough contest, the arrogant Xiang Yu could not help but admire Wang Li in his heart: If this thing were not the descendant of an enemy, an opponent on the battlefield, and a marshal of an enemy country, he could indeed be a good teacher and helpful friend. Because he is ten years older than me. At this time, Wang Li also admired Xiang Yu from the bottom of his heart: Although he is a general of the enemy country, his martial arts is unparalleled in the world. He is the most difficult tiger general I have ever encountered on the battlefield since I was a general. This The commander-in-chief of an enemy country who is ten years younger than himself is truly remarkable. It seems that his ability to be invincible is truly worthy of his name! At this time, the two people had fought for fifty or sixty rounds, but there was still no clear winner.
At this moment, a sonorous and powerful hoarse voice suddenly came: "Nephew, kill him! His grandfather killed your grandfather, which is my father! He is a descendant of our Lao Xiang family's enemy. ! Today is a showdown between the two sides. You must not be soft-hearted. Don’t forget how his grandfather led 600,000 Qin troops to defeat our Chu army in the east of Chen County fifteen years ago. Your grandfather was defeated in that battle. Did you commit suicide later?" Xiang Yu heard the voice of his uncle Xiang Bo. Yes, it was his uncle who was reminding him. Xiang Yu's eyes suddenly widened, and his cheeks suddenly turned red. This naturally awakened the resentment that had accumulated in his heart for many years. He and Wu Xinjun fled, wandered, and hid from trouble for many years just for this reason. At this moment, he wanted revenge, and the spark of hatred that had been extinguishing him for a long time was once again activated in his heart. Xiang Yu then used all his deadly force, stabbing Wang Li with several consecutive shots that made Wang Li dizzy. Xiang Yu thought to himself: Although he is a hero, he is the descendant of an enemy and a sworn enemy. His grandfather killed my grandfather, so I must kill him. Thinking of this, Xiang Yu blocked the spear sent by Wang Li with all his strength, and then hit him hard on the back without any obstruction.
Wang Li was hit, and he climbed down. He let out a painful beast-like howl from his throat. It seemed that all his energy was exhausted at this moment, and he fell to the ground immediately. At this moment, Xiang Yu took another step forward, pointed the tip of his gun at Wang Li's throat and said, "Are you convinced now?" Wang Li stared in horror. He was completely desperate and closed his eyes in pain... But after waiting for a long time, Xiang Yu didn't make a move. Wang Li opened his eyes and saw that everyone was watching them. Everyone wanted to see what Xiang Yu would do with him. But Xiang Yu suddenly took back the weapon in his hand, and then said angrily to Wang Li: "I heard that you galloped across the desert, conquered the Xiongnu, and repeatedly defeated the Hu chieftains, and made great contributions to the Qin State! I won't kill you today. You can go back and continue to rectify the situation. The army is coming to fight!" Wang Li was moved. He never expected that a commander-in-chief of an enemy country for three generations would praise him so highly. When he was satisfied, he slowly stood up, looked at the mighty Xiang Yu, and said, "Thank you, General. Thank you for killing me!" Then he bowed to Xiang Yu. He thanked Xiang Yu for giving him the dignity of a general who would be honored even if he was defeated. He looked up to the sky and laughed and said: "My king, Li, was defeated at the hands of the general. It is considered a great honor. Yes, but a man is too powerful to yield! After my death, the grudges and grudges between our two families for three generations will be over!" After saying that, he picked up the weapon from the ground, pointed the tip of the spear at his chest, and He shouted: "As a general, you will be defeated in the third generation. This is me!" Then he sent the spearhead straight into his chest. In order to feel more comfortable, he pulled out the spear with force again, and once A stream of blood spurted out. Wang Li's vision went dark, and the giant body fell down like an iron tower. His life came to an end, and his proud soul was scattered on the ruthless battlefield as blood spurted out.
Zhang Han saw Wang Li committing suicide from a distance, and he shouted in pain: "General Wang!" It was as if the spear had stabbed him. All the Qin soldiers who saw this scene felt frightened all over. Everyone was dumbfounded, and there was a sudden silence on the battlefield. Xiang Yu was extremely shocked when he saw Wang Li committing suicide. He really admired such a strong man and hero, so he abandoned his shield and spear, bowed to Wang Li, then jumped on Wu Zhui, and said sharply to Zhang Han : "I respect him as a man! Will you come and collect his body?" After saying that, he led Yafu to ride back to the city. When the people of Zhao State saw Xiang Yu entering the city, they all knelt down to greet him, not even daring to raise their heads to look at Xiang Yu. The allied soldiers shouted in unison: "Long live the Chu army! Long live Xiang Yu!..." There is a poem saying:
Thousands of troops and horses are like a rainbow, just like when they fought against Chen Dong.
The soul is still shouting after ten years, and three generations of ancestors and grandchildren have succeeded.
Introducing the sword quickly will cause and effect, and the three families will die in the Qin Dynasty in the dark.
Where can I offer sacrifices to Zhangshui? Don't judge heroes by success or failure.
There was a truce between the two sides for the next period of time, and the Chu army was not in a hurry to attack Zhang Han again. Zhang Han also returned to the Jiyuan camp to set up a mourning hall to pay homage to General Wang. Then, while reporting the funeral to the court, he sent sergeants to kill Wang Li. The coffin was transported back to Pinyang Dongxiang in Guanzhong for burial.
