Chapter 245: Three thousand dead soldiers turned into a boat
In Hulao Pass, the two armies faced each other.
Twenty thousand Yanmen cavalry surrounded three thousand Yellow Turban warriors. Xiang Yu glanced coldly at the four generals on the opposite side, without any panic in his eyes.
Looking at the remnants of the Yellow Turban army waiting in formation on the opposite side, Yue Fei frowned, rode his horse to Qin Qiong's side, and said in a solemn voice: "General Shubao, the situation is not quite right. It is better to attack quickly, and things will change later."
Qin Qiong's eyes flashed with surprise and asked, "Brother Pengju, have you noticed it too?"
Yue Fei nodded solemnly and said solemnly: "Xiang Yu could have tried his best to break out of the encirclement before it was completed, but he waited for us to complete the encirclement."
"Xiang Yu is preparing to break the axe!" Qin Qiong said with a wry smile: "Be careful now, he is really going to fight for his life."
Yue Fei nodded seriously. Qin Qiong rode his horse to the front of the two armies and shouted: "Xiang Yu, Hulao Pass has been recaptured by our army. Now you are also surrounded by our army. Don't make any more unnecessary resistance." Come on, surrender, I, Qin Qiong, guarantee your life safety."
Qin Qiong also knew that Xiang Yu would definitely not surrender. The reason why he said this was just to disrupt the remaining Yellow Turban army, but the effect did not seem to be ideal.
"Surrender?" A hint of disdain flashed at the corner of Xiang Yu's mouth, and he sneered: "A joke. There is only Xiang Yu who died in battle, not Xiang Yu who surrendered."
Xiang Yu turned around and looked at the three thousand dead soldiers behind him, and shouted: "Brothers, are you afraid of death?"
"Don't be afraid." The three thousand dead soldiers shouted in unison.
Looking at the resolute faces in front of him, Xiang Yu shouted again: "I ask again, those who want to surrender should come forward as soon as possible. I, Xiang Yu, do not ask everyone to accompany me to death."
No one stood up. Seeing this, Xiang Yu nodded slightly moved and shouted: "Very good, you are all real warriors. Now we have no way to retreat and can only fight to the end. Let us kill to our heart's content today, If we die, let’s fight to the death together!”
"Kill, kill, kill..."
The three thousand dead soldiers roared to the sky, and they all looked at death as if they were going home, killing each one to make a profit.
"No, thanks to Xiang Yu's encouragement, everyone in the Yellow Turban army is now ready to die. We can't drag it out any longer." Qin Qiong was shocked when he saw this and quickly ordered: "The whole army attacks!"
After receiving the order, 20,000 cavalrymen rushed out from all directions at the same time. Seeing this, Xiang Yu raised his halberd and shouted: "Rebel the tyrant, kill the faint king!"
After saying that, Xiang Yu took the lead in charging into the enemy army with his halberd, and the yellow scarf warriors behind him all shouted the slogan "Fight the tyrant, kill the faint king", followed Xiang Yu, and charged forward without hesitation.
"Ding dong, the army command effect of Xiang Yu's skill 'Broken Army' is activated. When leading the infantry in battle, command + 4, force + 3. Currently, Xiang Yu's command is 94 and force is 110."
"Ding dong, affected by the 'Broken Army' effect, the morale of Xiang Yu's entire army has increased, their combat power has increased, and their speed has increased..."
Qin Hao, who was at the front gate of Hulao Pass, was shocked when he heard this, and quickly asked: "Isn't the 'Pojun' sealed by the 'Double Door God'? Why can it still be activated?"
"The 'Double Gate God' is the 'Po Jun' sealed in the battle. Now that the battle has ended, the sealing effect has disappeared."
"This is going to be difficult!"
Qin Hao put his Yanmen Army on the front line this time regardless of losses, just to kill Xiang Yu 100%. However, Qin Hao calculated all his traps, but ignored that Xiang Yu's "broken army" could actually be launched again.
'Broken Army' is definitely one of the skills with the greatest amplification effect on ordinary soldiers.
Break an ax into a boat and defeat all armies.
During the Battle of Julu, Xiang Yu used 30,000 Jiangdong soldiers to defeat the 300,000 tiger and wolf Qin troops head-on. The role of strategy was only one of them, and the contribution of 'breaking the army' was probably even greater!
It is naturally impossible for Xiang Yu's three thousand tired Yellow Turban warriors to break through the encirclement of the Yanmen Army that is ten times their size, but with the support of the 'Po Jun' it will be different!
Xiang Yu personally served as the arrowhead, and behind him were three thousand dead soldiers in yellow turbans, with high morale and as if they were ready to die. They suddenly exploded with combat power twice his own.
The Yanmen Army was stunned and retreated steadily, screaming incessantly!
Although the Yanmen Army was all cavalry and was surrounded on all sides, due to the limitations of the site and the lack of sufficient distance, the cavalry's speed advantage was brought into play, and their performance at this time was even worse than that of the infantry.
"Anyone who stands in my way will die!" Xiang Yu shouted, and with each sweep, four or five knights would be swept off their horses.
The Yellow Turban warriors all howled and charged forward. Everyone was red-eyed. Even if they died, they would have to drag the Moon Gate cavalry as their backs.
"Young Master, Xiang Yu has broken through the siege of the four generals and is heading towards the city gate."
Listening to the continuous screams not far away, Qin Hao sighed and said: "Notify General Chunyu Qiong and let him be prepared to intercept!"
At this point, Qin Hao had no choice but to fulfill his destiny and listen to human affairs.
This battle with Xiang Yu made Qin Hao understand the weaknesses of his subordinates. Xiang Yu alone defeated seven of his generals. Although his generals have good overall abilities, they still lack top-notch generals!
It seems it’s time to use that yellow scarf to randomly summon the card. I hope I can summon a top warrior! Qin Hao thought to himself.
After a life-and-death struggle, the three thousand Yellow Turban soldiers finally broke through the siege of 20,000 Yanmen cavalry, but the number also dropped from three thousand to one thousand.
On the road leading to the front gate of Hulao Pass, a thousand remnants of the army were fighting and retreating towards the city gate, and behind him, there was a mass of countless cavalry.
Whenever the rear warrior dies in battle, there will always be new warriors who automatically stay to delay time.
In this way, the remnant army of less than a thousand fought through tight sieges and finally arrived in front of the Hulao Pass city gate.
In front of the city gate, the 20,000 Hulao Pass garrison who had already formed a formation had completely blocked the city gate. If they wanted to get close to the city gate, they had to fight through the crowd.
Seeing this, Chunyu Qiong immediately ordered: "Fire the arrow!"
Xiang Yu's eyes narrowed and he immediately shouted: "Raise your shield!"
The golden warriors with shields all raised their shields, while those without shields hid behind the yellow scarf warriors with shields.
After three rounds of arrow rain, two to three hundred people died under the sword rain, but most of the Yellow Turban warriors were like awls, directly piercing into the Han army's formation.
There were only six or seven hundred Yellow Turban warriors left. After plowing into the crowd of Han soldiers, the Yanmen pursuers in the rear naturally lost their target to pursue.
The Yanmen cavalry can't rush in too, as this will only make the situation more chaotic.
The Yanmen cavalry stopped chasing, which was naturally what Xiang Yu wanted to see most. If the opponent became the defenders of Hulao Pass, the Yellow Turban warriors would also go from being chased to a one-sided... massacre!
