The two sides fought until dawn. Xiang Ye and Xiang Qingcai led the Chu army to repel the Qin army. Seeing that there was no hope of breaking through the Chu army's defense line, Sima Qi had to take his troops to retreat to Puyang with his troops.

After repelling the Qin army, Xiang Ye met General Pu. It was only then that he realized that General Pu was not surnamed Pu, but Chen and Wu.

This is not mentioned in history textbooks. Xiang Ye really has the urge to travel back to two thousand years and tell all of this to his classmates and teachers. But he has no idea what to do to go back to two thousand years later.

After defeating the Qin army, he did not return to the outside of Yongqiu City immediately. He knew that there must be a fierce battle there, and it was not rational to return to Yongqiu at this time. If Xiang Yu handed him over the responsibility of commanding the siege, he would definitely be defeated like Ji Bu and Ying Bu.

War is an extremely barbaric way of dealing with disputes invented by humans. When Xiang Ye first came to this world, he felt a little scared and sad when facing death.

Over time, he gradually became numb to death. Like any other creature, as long as he lives, there will inevitably be conflicts.

Seeing death is common for Xiang Ye, and he is already numb to death. The only thing he doesn't want to and wants to see is that the people around him will leave him forever. He hopes that Yu Fanjun will be the first and last person who has truly cared about him.

On a dirt slope ten miles away from Yongqiu, Xiang Ye put his hands behind him and looked at Yongqiu City in the distance.

The dark outline of Yongqiu City appeared faintly under the sunlight. Xiang Ye looked up at the sky, sighed sadly, and said, "It's raining!"

Xiang Qing, who was standing beside him, also looked into the sky with his gaze. The fireball-like sun hung high in the air and cast a golden light into the whole world.

She turned to look at Xiang Ye and asked in confusion: "The sun is in the sky, how do you know it's raining soon?"

Xiang Ye smiled bitterly and said slowly: "The storm is about to come and the wind fills the building. The strong wind is strong here, so it will definitely lead to heavy rain. It seems that my fire attack plan is about to be ruined."

"It won't rain. I believe your plan will be implemented smoothly." Xiang Qing shook his head and smiled sweetly at Xiang Ye. She didn't know when it started, but she developed a sense of incomparable trust in Xiang Ye from the bottom of her heart.

Xiang Ye didn't say anything, but put his hands behind him, avoiding the sunshine, and looking up at the blue sky. In the sky, a white cloud floated leisurely over him and Xiang Qing's heads, and gusts of mountain wind passed by him and Xiang Qing, lifting up their clothes and messing up their hair.

In Yongqiu, the fierce battle was still going on, and the Chu army was still at a complete disadvantage and was always suppressed and beaten by the Qin army during the attack.

"Sir! It's not good!" On the Yongqiu city wall, the commander-in-chief Qin general ran to Li You and half-kneeled on the ground and said in panic: "Our army's arrows have been sold out, the big stones are almost thrown out, and all the oil that can be collected in the city has been collected. Judging from the current consumption rate, within three hours, our army will not be able to effectively kill the bandits, and can only fight with them in the city!"

Li You frowned and said to the side general: "Don't panic, our army is above and the enemy is below. We still have the advantage. We strictly order all troops to defend and prevent them from being strong and not give bandits a chance to climb the city!"

"Yes!" The side general responded, stood up and shouted to the Qin army on the city: "The county magistrate has an order. All troops will defend and guard against each other. Do not give bandits a chance to enter the city!"

When the Qin army crossbowmen pulled out arrows from the quiver pot, they were no longer as casual as they had been the previous two days. Each of them shot the arrows before shooting them out, causing the Chu army under the city to suffer even more heavy losses.

Many Chu soldiers were shot by arrows flying down from the city while charging, and fell to the ground while turning around, becoming members of the thick pile of corpses outside the city.

After three days of attack, corpses piled up all over the ground under Yongqiu City. It would be very difficult for the Chu army to go forward every step. They had to step past their companions' bodies before they could rush to the foot of the city wall. When setting up a siege ladder at the foot of the city wall, they had to pull away the bodies under the foot of the ladder. These extra actions caused them to suffer greater losses.

Yu Ziqi, who was in charge of commanding the siege on the third day, closed his eyes and tried not to see the cruel battle under the city. It was a completely one-sided massacre.

He sighed, reached out to wipe his face, let out a sigh, and said to the side general around him: "How many people have we lost?"

"Report to General, since the early morning siege, our army has been killed by nearly two thousand people, and countless injured!" The side general lowered his head and bowed his hands and said tremblingly.

"Oh, it's much easier to break a thousand-year-old black iron into a worldly magical weapon than to break through Yongqiu!" Yu Ziqi sighed, shook off the reins of the horse, and turned around and walked towards the back formation of the headquarters.

He was standing in front of the formation and looked at Yongqiu City, which was fighting fiercely.

At the foot of the city wall, rows of Chu troops were shot to the ground by crossbow arrows and bows and arrows shot by the Qin army on the city; big rocks smashed the Chu army climbing up the city foot, and at the city gate, a pot of boiling oil poured down towards the Chu army holding a log to rush to the city gate.

While the sound of the siege of the Chu army siege came from the city, there were also the screams of some wounded people and the screams of the officers urging soldiers to climb the city.

A group of Chu troops climbed the city wall, but they would soon be driven down by the Qin army on the city.

A Chu army had just climbed up the battlement and before they could gain a foothold, a figure rushed towards him.

The Qin soldier who rushed over was a Qin army whose arm was cut off by one of his arms and was still bleeding from the wound. The Qin soldier looked pale. In addition to the broken arm, there were several wounds on his body, and blood was surging out from the wound on his body.

He rushed to the Chu soldiers who had just climbed to the top of the city, tightly clamped the Chu soldiers with the remaining arm, and jumped down the city wall.

The Chu soldiers let out a shrill scream and fell into the pile of corpses under the city with the Qin soldiers, and fell into two piles of meat paste.

The Qin army set up a spear formation beside the city wall. As soon as the Chu army climbed the battlements, more than ten spears would pierce towards them. Under this dense defense, the Chu army climbed the city wall were pierced and fell down one after another.

At dusk, the Qin army in Yongqiu threw the last big stone, shot out the last arrow, and fell down the last pot of boiling oil. They had no more weapons to cause large-scale damage to the Chu army under the city.

The sky gradually darkened, the dusk sunset was covered by a dark cloud, and the blood-like residual clouds gradually lost its luster under the dark clouds. The earth was reflected by the light projected from the setting sun, as dark as the face of the sick man.

A flash of lightning broke through the sky, and then a loud thunder came from mid-air. Xiang Ye, who was riding a war horse and leading three thousand cavalry slowly towards Yongqiu, looked up at the sky, smiled at Xiang Qing, who was riding beside him and said, "It's really going to rain."

Xiang Qing looked up at the sky. Her jade-like face was also reflected in the dark yellow light. She frowned and said to Xiang Ye anxiously: "You can still laugh. Once it rains, your plan to burn Yongqiu will be ruined."

Xiang Ye shook his head and said to Xiang Qing: "The fire of Yongqiu is not what I most hope to happen. This rain came in time. It made me understand that using the fire to burn a city guarded by warriors is unethical and not allowed by heaven."

"What are you going to do?" Xiang Ye's words failed to convince Xiang Qing. She always felt that using fire to burn Yongqiu City was the most ideal method.

Xiang Ye sighed and sighed, "The most convincing way to fight against the warriors is to conquer them with the same brave heart! Only then can he be recognized by the whole world and conquered the heroes in the world!"

"Your idea is very similar to my elder brother!" Xiang Qing curled his lips and shook his head and said, "My elder brother is born with divine power. He goes in and out of the army, as if he is entering a state of no one. But you can only rely on foot to exert the maximum lethality. If you rush into the enemy formation, you will easily be surrounded without a mount and die in the end!"

Xiang Ye agreed with Xiang Qing's words. He sighed helplessly and said, "Mr. Gai Nie only taught me this set of swordsmanship in the field, but did not teach me how to fight horses. This is indeed something I have been struggling with."

When Xiang Ye sighed that he could not do anything about horse war, Xiang Qing smiled sweetly at him and said, "General Long Qi is my elder brother's brother. His martial arts are taught by his elder brother. Why don't you ask your elder brother to teach you his "one-handed eighteen picks"? In this way, you can handle the horse war calmly and you won't be afraid of anyone in the future."

Xiang Qing's words made Xiang Ye's eyes lit up, but in an instant the light of expectation in his eyes dimmed again, and he said with some regret: "General Long Qi is General Xiang Yu's brother, but I am nothing. How can I ask him to teach me martial arts?"

"Who said you are nothing?" Xiang Qing pouted with some displeasure and argued with Xiang Ye: "You are his brother-in-law, and the husband of her favorite sister. If he dares not teach you, I will ask my father to teach him a lesson."

When Xiang Qing mentioned her father Xiang Liang, his face was filled with infinite pride. But when Xiang Ye looked at the pride on her face, he felt a palpitation in his heart.

Xiang Qing didn't know that her father would be defeated Dingtao shortly after the destruction of Yongqiu City and left her forever. Looking at her face full of happiness, Xiang Ye couldn't help but feel a little jealous of those who didn't know what would happen in the future.

If you don’t know the future, you will still have expectations in your heart. But Xiang Ye, who already knows the future, can hardly do anything except struggle in established historical events.
