Chapter 29 The Traces of Han Xin

"Dongdongdongdongdong--" The war drums in the Han camp sounded again in a hurry, but this time the reaction in the Han camp was much slower. Many soldiers had just fallen asleep and were awakened by the drum sound less than a moment after closing their eyes. Their resentment can be imagined - they were tortured for a long time that night, and they were about to be pulled up as soon as they lay down. After pulling them up, they found nothing wrong. Then they lay down and fell asleep, but the sound of death-seeking drum sounded again. Needless to say, this time it must be the disturbing tactics that the Chu people played again. What if they were, let's continue to sleep.

Cao Shen was the same. Soon after he fell asleep, he was awakened by the sound of war drums again. However, as a general, he was naturally much more alert than ordinary soldiers. He was shocked, turned over and got up, picked up his weapons and left the camp, shouting as he walked: "Tell all battalions to quickly prepare and standby, and there must be no mistakes."

The generals quickly conveyed it, but most of the soldiers in each battalion still lay still - who can withstand such a quarrel? People's energy is limited, and people's patience is limited. After all, they play with us again and again, and really treat us like monkeys?

However, this time it was the Chu army attacking the camp, not the straw man pretending to be a slander.

Xiang Yu, Zhonglimei, Ji Bu and other generals, together with tens of thousands of troops, broke through the vast Weishui River and captured the gate of the Han army camp with lightning speed. As for the two tower posts, Lao Chen and Liu Qi, they were shot down by Ji Bu and one arrow. Liu Qi's thank-you wine was probably going to the underworld to invite Lao Chen to drink. The two brothers were companions, and they were no longer alone on the road to the underworld. This was thankful to Ji Bu for his success. Unfortunately, Ji Bu would not drink their thank-you wine.

Ji Bu was so uncomfortable these days that his hands were itchy, but he was blocked by a pool of Weishui. However, the overlord actually came up with the move of using a hanging sheep to beat the drum, which made the Han army exhausted. He also used a broken ship and a few straw men to paralyze the soldiers of the Han army. When the real army came out, he did not encounter much resistance. Ji Bu was even more able to kill and quickly rushed to the central army's tent with his troops.

Cao Shen also wanted to lead the crowd to resist, but was dragged by several deputy generals. One of them begged: "General, the Chu army is powerful and has already broken through the gates. Our army has only 10,000, and we are in a hurry to fight, so it is difficult to resist the enemy. If we do not retreat, there is a possibility of annihilation of the entire army. I hope the general will make a quick decision."

Looking at his panicked subordinates and looking at the begging deputy generals, Cao Shen was reluctant but had to grit his teeth and ordered helplessly: "The entire army retreated to Linzi and standby."

The Chu army was not in power and did not let anyone take over the Han camp, so they stopped their troops and refused to chase after him. After a quick look, there were more than a thousand people in the Han camp who were still sleeping and not resisting. When they opened their eyes, they became prisoners. Some people didn't believe it. When they saw groups of Chu soldiers entering one after another, they realized that they had become prisoners of the overlord Xiang Yu.

Not to mention that Cao Shen was in a mess all the way, he stopped when he arrived in Linzi. Even the overlord Xiang Yu had not been asleep for a night, and his fatigue quickly enveloped his whole body. After ordering Ji Bu to clean the battlefield and check the results of the battle, Xiang Yu also buried his head and fell asleep. Outside the camp, Zhang Huo and Xiang Sheng were staring like copper bells, guarding Xiang Yu who was snoring loudly.

It was dawn, and the Han army camp had been replaced with the Chu army flag. Thousands of Han army prisoners were divided into several small groups. Those who were willing to surrender were arranged to join the Chu army and join the organization. Those who were unwilling to surrender were executed on the spot - no one was unwilling to surrender.

"Overlord." The official in charge of the record saw Xiang Yu and hurriedly stood up and said.

"See the Overlord." The Chu army and the New Chu army (the Han soldiers who were willing to surrender) fell to their knees and bowed to the ground.

"All get up." Xiang Yu raised his hand and said, "You should do whatever you should do, don't be stubborn because you are alone."

"No." The chief official bowed.

Xiang Yu looked at the endless prisoners and suddenly remembered something and asked, "How many prisoners have been captured in this battle?"

The chief official quickly stood up and replied: "There are a total of 2,438 people, of which 762 were injured."

"Only two thousand four hundred and thirty-eight people?" Xiang Yu suddenly felt a little unknown, and hurriedly grabbed a nearby prisoner and asked sternly: "When my Western Chu army attacked the camp, how many Han soldiers were there?"

The soldier was so scared that his legs were trembling, fearing that the Overlord would be dissatisfied and tear himself in half. He quickly replied with a trembling trembling: "Little Man, the villain is the subordinate of General Cao Shen. Only General Cao Shen's headquarters's troops are 10,000, and there are no other soldiers."

"What?" The soldier's answer seemed to confirm Xiang Yu's uneasiness, and he asked hurriedly, "Then do you know where Han Xin led the army? Humph, say it, there is a heavy reward, but it will not be reported if it is known. If it is killed without mercy, it will be executed immediately, and will never be tolerated."

"The villain really doesn't know. The King of Qi led his army out of the camp yesterday. Where did he go? The villain really doesn't know. Please spare your life." The soldier was already distracted, his lips turned dark purple, but his face was very pale, like a piece of wax paper.

"Go down." Xiang Yu let go, and the soldier almost fell and staggered. After two staggers, he barely stood firm.

Xiang Yu didn't have time to pay attention to him and quickly shouted: "The commander, please go and invite General Zhongli and General Ji Bu to come to the Central Army's tent to discuss matters. There must be no mistakes."

The commander was stunned for a moment, then turned over and ran towards the two generals' garrison.

Xiang Yu did not hesitate, turned over the black horse, and did not wait for others. He ran towards the central army's tent as soon as he hit a horse.

Time is tight, so he is not allowed to stay for too long. If he is not careful, he will fall into the encirclement that Han Xin has been conspiring for a long time. In that case, the entire Chu army will face an extremely arduous battle, and if it is not done well, it will be wiped out. This does not allow Xiang Yu to ignore it, so he hurriedly summoned Zhonglimei and Ji Bu.

Zhonglimei received the urgent message from the messenger, and hurriedly put on a neat dress and rushed to the central army tent. He was meeting Ji Bu who was coming and asked, "General Ji, do you know that the overlord calls me to come quickly, what's the matter?"

Ji Bu was also puzzled and spread his hands and said, "Where did Bu know? Let's not figure out the meaning of the Overlord. Wouldn't you understand after entering?"

As soon as the two of them stepped into the central army tent, they heard another rapid sound of horse hooves behind them. Zhonglimei and Ji Bu couldn't help but look back and saw a scout rolling off the horse, running to Xiang Yu in three steps and two steps, and report: "You are the boss, big things are not good."

"What's the matter?" Xiang Yu had already guessed it, but still asked.

"Han Xin personally led his army to attack Pei County, which has cut off our army's route." The scout reported urgently.

"What?" Zhonglimei and Ji Bu said in unison, "Han Xin attacked Pei County?"
