Chapter 240 Doomsday Competition (seeking monthly ticket)

The fire rose.

The corner of the Taiwei Mansion in the south of Wancheng City was reflected. After being exhausted and dragged the sick body for more than a month, Zhou Bo gave up.

He died by self-immolation. Surrendering to Qin or being captured and living in siege is absolutely impossible. For others, it may mean rebirth, but for Zhou Bo, death is liberation.

Even at the moment of his death, Zhou Bo was trying his best to create opportunities for the Han army in the city. The fire of the Taiwei Mansion soared into the sky. This situation fell into the eyes of those soldiers loyal to Zhou Bo. Without thinking too much, you can know that something happened to Zhou Bo. This made Chen Xi, who was thinking of using the tiger symbol to order the entire army to surrender out of the city and feel a sense of hatred.

In this doomsday competition where heroes compete in troubled times, the first leading contestants withdraw from time to time. Chen Sheng and Wu Guang were defeated and died, and Cao Shen and Zhou Bo were the same.

There were righteous men in ancient times.

In order to repay Liu Bang's brotherly friendship, Zhou Bo, like Cao Shen, burned every drop of blood in his body. As for whether it is worth it, they can only experience and understand it themselves.

Cao Shen and Zhou Bo successively fulfilled their promises when the brothers of Pei County gathered together with their actions. From this point of view, Liu Bang was a very lucky person and a very charming person. Chen Xi looked at Zhou Bo's death in a complicated mood. He was grateful, ashamed, and a little bit of inexplicable sadness towards this Han Dynasty Taiwei who had promoted and reused himself.

"Put the corpse of the Taiwei and get a grand funeral!" Chen Xi said.

"I'll do it now." Zhang Chun nodded, then turned around and told the guests around him to find Zhou Bo's remains among the piles of ruins. He restrained them with a pottery jar.]

This is the last respect for a respected deceased person, and Zhang Chun did his best. In this turbulent and chaotic world, someone could restrain himself when Zhou Bo died. Zhang Chun didn't know if he would treat himself like this kindly when he died.

Of course, Zhang Chun would not know that in the original historical time and space, Zhou Bo would lead troops to attack the Chen Xi forces in Dai, Zhang Chun, Manqiuchen, Wang Huang and other Chen generals were eventually chopped off by Zhou Bo, and his head was then sent to Chang'an City. He hung it on the top of the city for two months.

"Menqiu, you will quickly hold the military talisman and lead a team of people to the east military camp of the city. If someone resists or refuses to follow, he will be killed without mercy." Chen Xi had calmed down his excitement and ordered.

"I will obey the order." Manchugong clasped his fists and bowed.

"Chen. You immediately send a letter to Qin camp outside the city, and you said that I, Chen Xi, did what I said, and asked General Han to quickly send troops into the city to calm the chaos in the city."

"I'll go here." Chen Chu waved his hand excitedly and rushed into the Taiwei Mansion with great strides.

Zhou Bo was the Grand Marshal of the Han Dynasty and the county magistrate of Wancheng. Among the 30,000 defenders, there were about 10,000 troops loyal to him. These soldiers are currently the most unstable source. Whether Chen Xi’s fake orders can work? First, if the news of Zhou Bo’s death has been spread to the Han army. Second, it depends on whether the Han army’s soldiers’ desire to fight is strong, and third, it is the easier it is to control the situation when the Qin army enters the city.

——.

A mutiny.

With Chen Xi's careful planning and Zhou Bo's abandonment, it was successfully staged. Among them, I would like to thank Guan Ying's head for the shock and the deterrent power brought by the Cao Xinyuezhi Warriors' siege during the day.

Dongcheng Tavern.

The captain Wang Huang, under Chen Xi's command, pulled Zhao Wu, and Li Qi, two captains guarding the city, were drunk.

Zhao and Li were once subordinates of Zhang Er, the king of Changshan. After Zhang Er was defeated by Chen Yu, they joined forces to King Liu Bang of Han.

As the long-time general who experienced the magnificent war on the wall, it goes without saying that the combat experience of Zhao and Li generals were mostly Chu soldiers, while Zhao and Li generals were Zhao people. They lacked some loyalty and control of the troops. Zhou Bo promoted Zhao and Li and the other two acted helplessly. The defeats again and again caused serious blood loss within the Han army, especially the long-term vacancy of middle and lower-level officers was not supplemented.

"Two brothers, you have been together for many days, so there is no need to say much about your relationship. Now, brothers, I am not satisfied with you. Mr. Chen has already negotiated with the Shenwu Hou of Qin. As long as I have offered the city, at that time, at least one lieutenant can be found in the Qin army. Even if I don't want to join the army, I can still transfer to the local area. The county lieutenant of any county is much better than today and tomorrow in the Han Dynasty." Wang Huang took advantage of his drunkenness and looked at Zhao and Li's expressions while slowly speaking out his mind.

"Isn't Captain Wang telling a joke? The army of King of Han will arrive soon, and Chen Xi dares to rebel. He really deserves his life." Li Qi's face changed and he waved his hand anxiously.

"Brother Li misunderstood Mr. Chen. As you said, the King of Han really sent reinforcements this time, but the reinforcements were stopped by the army of Qin Shenwuhou. After a fierce battle, the Han army's fierce general Guan Ying also died in the battlefield. During the day, he was sent to Wancheng. Brother Li, Brother Zhao still didn't believe it?" Wang Huang said with a smile.

Although Li Qi showed surprise, he was not angry. This shows that Zhao and Li were just worried that the rebellion would not be successful, and that it would be a waste of life. They were not truly loyal to Liu Bang. As long as they dispel their concerns, the persuasion to surrender this time would be accomplished, and it would not be in vain for his social engagement efforts for many days.

"That's really Guan Hou's head? Why did the Taiwei say that this is the Qin people's plan to alienate each other?" Zhao Wu asked in shock.

"It's true. To be honest, Mr. Chen has decided to launch a mutiny tonight. If the two brothers look down on me, Wang Huang, stay here and don't care about anything. You and my brother only drink and talk about women. If you look down on me, Wang Huang, you must wade into this muddy water. Then don't blame Wang for being rude." Wang Huang sneered and raised his glass to the ground.

Outside the restaurant, the soldiers of Wang Huang's troops who had already been hiding here immediately rushed in and pointed the bright and sharp sword at Zhao Wu, Li Qi and the others.

"Brother Wang, where did this come from? We and the two of us did not disagree with what Brother Wang said. Come on, pour in fine wine and drink him with pleasure." Li Qi shook his head helplessly and said.

As a Zhao man, Li Qi and Zhao Wu did not have much feelings for Liu Bang, the new master, and even Zhang Er and others were just used to following each other. Now that he saw Wang Huangtu appearing and wanted to use a real knife, Li and Zhao immediately surrendered.

Zhao Wu and Li Qi abandoned the army and just hid in the wine shop and drank and had fun. The Han soldiers guarding Wancheng had no heads and were in chaos. The army controlled by Chen Xi fought with the soldiers who were trying to escape in the city.

"This dog thief Chen Xi cannot die well."

"The Qin army has entered the city, so we should take off our armor early and flee each other." The most sturdy fortress is the easiest to break from the inside, and the shouts of killing everywhere made the Han army generals frightened.

Chen rushed to the Qin camp outside the city and reported the mutiny in Wancheng to Han Xin. After learning that Chen Xi had killed Zhou Bo, Han Xin made a quick decision and immediately mobilized the Qin army soldiers under Chen Xi's leadership to enter the city through the two gates guarded by Chen Xi's army.

The turmoil lasted for two days. After entering Wancheng, Han Xin posted a list of people in the city to appease the people, and quickly dispatched elite troops to quell the rebellion of many fugitives of the Han army.

——.

Thirty thousand Han troops in Wancheng were annihilated.

This news caused the Qin and Han armies to fight in the Wolonggang area to be sad and happy. The accidental collapse of the Han army and Guan Ying's army caused Xiahou Ying's plan to abort, and the proportion of nearly 7,000 people to die, which made the elite Han army lose their mobility and offensive capabilities at once.

In desperation, Xiahou Ying had to choose to retreat and set up camp ten miles.

At the same time, after learning that the vanguard was not good, King Liu Bang of Han also braved the attack of the Qin cavalry to speed up the march. After the two armies met, the Han army's strength returned to the scale of 96,000 people. Compared with the Qin army, he finally gained a little advantage. However, in terms of morale, the Han army was very depressed.

Hanying.

The solemn atmosphere was almost suffocating.

Liu Bang sat upright in the middle of the military tent, staring at the pottery jar in front of him, speechless for a long time. Inside the pottery jar was the ashes of Zhou Bo, whom he was familiar with, who could not be more familiar with. Chen Xi finally remembered Zhou Bo's kindness and sent Zhou Bo's last commemoration to Han Camp.

"Brother, why did you go? You and A Shen left. What's the point of leaving me in this world? Forget it, I won't want this king anymore." Liu Bang cried bitterly, tears falling like rain.

Men will not shed tears easily.

It’s just that I haven’t arrived at the sad place.

When Cao Shen died in battle, Liu Bang was able to wipe away his tears and vowed to avenge him. However, when Zhou Bo died in battle, Liu Bang no longer had the strength to make such a vow.

Nearly fifty years old.

Half a lifetime of military service.

After years of fighting, what was waiting for was not the joy of returning home in glory and being named King Chenghou, but the ashes of brothers. Under such a gap, even Liu Bang, who had a tough personality, could not help but become discouraged. When one familiar subordinate after another left him, Liu Bang only felt the old aura of the elderly was sweeping over.

"King, take care of yourself. The 100,000 soldiers in the army are still hoping that the king will recover as soon as possible and go to the battlefield to kill the enemy. The people of Yingdu and their families are also waiting for the news of the triumphant victory in the army?" Prime Minister Xiao He saw that Liu Bang was so sad that he stepped forward to persuade him.

Hearing Xiao He's persuasion, Liu Bang finally stopped his grief. He glanced at Xiao He and Lu Wan, two old brothers in Pei County, and cried and said, "When Akuai died, I said in front of my wife and sister that I must take the head of Li Zhe to avenge this great revenge; when Akan died, I told myself that when he occupied Nanjun and the Han army had 200,000 people, I would personally raise the army and fight to the death with the Qin army. Now, Abo has left, but I did nothing. When I am in the nine springs, what will happen to me, Liu Ji, see them--!"

"King, these are all hateful thieves in Qin. There are so many princes in the world. I don't know what the little thief Li Yuan thought, but he just stared at us." Lu Wan said hatefully.

As time goes by, when Lu Wan talked about Li Yuan, he no longer had the contempt and disdain that he had in the Battle of White Horse. In his sour words, there was more awe and fear.
