Chapter 11 In the early morning in Huainan, it was already dawn, but the sky was still dark and foggy.
The Qi army, which had been attacking the city for several days, was exhausted, and most of the soldiers were still sleeping.
Even if there is a vigilant sentry, the sleepy person will slowly lower his head and then raise it suddenly like a chicken looking for food.
With the sound of trumpets, the soldiers in the camp were reluctantly awakened to start another day of siege.
The other three ladder trucks were also completed last night.
Guan Ying vowed to massacre this city today.
After the soldiers drank a bowl of gruel, they began to leave the camp one after another to assemble.
The drums were rumbling, and the Qi army carrying various siege equipment began to surround Guangling City in all directions.
At this time, the sound of attacking drums and horns covered up a sound like rolling thunder in the distance.
A Qi army cavalry scout with his face covered in blood and arrows stuck in his body galloped over on horseback from a distance.
Before he reached the camp, he started shouting hoarsely: "Enemy enemy soldiers are attacking."
However, his voice was covered by the noise before the attack.
It wasn't until he rushed to the front of the camp that he was discovered by several captains and military commanders.
Then they saw a large number of unknown cavalry four to five hundred meters behind the scout.
Only then did the shouts of "enemy cavalry attack" spread one after another.
When Guan Ying received the news, the cavalry several hundred meters away had already reached a hundred or ten meters in front of the camp.
"Quick, get my weapons and horses!"
Guan Ying shouted in panic.
When he was speaking, Xiang Yu, the overlord who was rushing at the front, had already used the strength of carrying the cauldron to swing the great halberd, and led three thousand Chu army cavalry like an arrow to shoot into the position where the Qi army had gathered to attack the city. .
This is the cavalry charge formation used by the Overlord.
Where the three thousand cavalry passed by was a bloody alley, where halberds fell and heads were broken, and people were killed by swords.
Xiang Yu led 3,000 cavalrymen and killed thousands of Qi soldiers along the way.
In a matter of seconds, the Qi army assembled in the wilderness was reduced to pieces, and the people they killed were thrown off their backs.
When Guan Ying and the soldiers of the Qi army saw clearly that the leader was the Overlord, their body and mind were already as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
Guan Ying's troops were in a mess, with corpses scattered all over the wilderness.
The wounded soldiers were wailing, and the rest of the soldiers were either Running around like a headless fly in a daze, or at a loss.
Guan Ying saw the Overlord running towards him and the big banner behind him.
He shouted anxiously, "Quick, send my order to the general, and the whole army will withdraw to the camp.".
But there was no trace of Lingqi beside him.
He had no choice but to flee towards the camp by himself, followed closely by Da Bao's hand, and some scattered soldiers also followed Da Bao and rushed into the camp.
At this time, the gate of Guangling City suddenly opened wide, and thousands of Chu army infantry swarmed out of the city.
With high morale, the Chu soldiers bravely pursued the defeated soldiers of the Qi army.
Even the crossbowmen joined in the pursuit.
They chased them three or four meters behind the defeated soldiers and shot them with an arrow in the back, knocking them to the ground.
Guan Ying, who fled into the camp, shouted "Close the camp gate", but no one responded.
When he turned around, he saw that a large number of Chu army cavalry had already poured into his camp, wielding the ring-headed sword and slashing and killing him.
Then he heard a thunderous roar.
Overlord Xiang Yu's Wuzui horse was charging from five battles away.
The great halberd had already been swung and was slashing at him.
Guan Ying gritted his teeth and used the spear in his hand to block.
With a violent collision, Guan Ying felt as if the wrists of both hands holding the gun were about to break, and he almost dropped the spear.
Xiang Yu turned back his halberd and thrust it forward.
Guan Ying couldn't even lift his spear at this moment, so he could block it.
A halberd was pierced into Guan Ying's thigh, and he was taken off the horse in one fell swoop.
The Wuzui horse's momentum did not slow down, and the iron palm of its front hoof stepped on Guan Ying's chest.

His ribs were all broken, and his chest was instantly stepped down.
He vomited a few mouthfuls of blood and died.
Xiang Yu turned his horse's head and cut off Guan Ying's head with a single slash of his halberd.
Then he inserted the tip of the halberd into the head of the man's hair, lifted it up, and galloped wildly, shouting: "The thief chieftain Guan Ying has been beheaded."
Wherever they passed, the Chu army roared with joy and fought harder.
The Qi army collapsed and dispersed.
The Guanying tribe in the Han camp was completely defeated.
From the time when the Guanying tribe attacked Guangling to the present day, more than 30,000 Qi troops have been beheaded.
When Xiang Yu returned to Jinling, the news that Guangling was besieged by Guan Ying had just come.
He took three thousand cavalry on board in the middle of the night and sailed down the river.
It was already dawn when he landed on the river bank south of Guangling.
After landing, he immediately galloped ten miles on horseback and stormed to the foot of Guangling City.
Although Guan Ying's peripheral scouts discovered the enemy's presence immediately, they had no time to report it to Guan Ying in advance.
In less than half a month, Overlord Xiang Yu defeated the eastern and western armies of the Han camp without any damage to himself.
The precarious situation was quickly relieved.
More than 80 large ships went up the river.
Xiang Yu ordered the cavalry to rest in the cabins.
They had all fallen asleep after a big battle.
The horses on the bottom of the boat also began to replenish their soybean horse feed.
It was already dark when we drove back to Jinling.
Xiang Yu was woken up by the soldiers: "Lord, we have returned to Jinling."
Xiang Yu boarded the deck and looked at the stars in the sky.
He had a sudden idea in his heart and a bold plan came up.
After Xiang Yu's soul piercing, he could not change the core of his character.
The courage to take risks is exactly what Han Xin lacks most.
Although it seems that Han Xin's battle examples include many risky moves, in fact he has carefully evaluated the situation and is confident, not taking risks.
For example, the world thinks that Han Xin's last-ditch battle and Xiang Yu's desperate battle are the same thing, but in fact they are completely different.
The real intention of the former is mainly to use the river to cover his back.
Of course, the river also plays the role of supervising the battle team.
This saves all the troops needed to cover the flanks and back and devote them to the front.
On the front, Han Xin was fully confident that with the tens of thousands of soldiers fighting in formation, he could defeat the hundreds of thousands of opponents who swarmed in and started snatching supplies and goods before they saw the formation.
"My king's order is that the fleet should not dock at Jinling, but continue up the river and sail on the left bank," Xiang Yu ordered.
In the deep night, the cavalry and war horses who had rested on the boat for a day once again boarded the land on the north bank twenty miles downstream of Wujiang County.
This time they were going to raid the main camp where Liu Bang's 300,000 troops were stationed.
Liu Bang was in charge of the main camp of the Chinese army.
Liu Bang, Zhang Liang, Zhenping and other generals were silent.
They were just summoned because Liu Bang had just received two pieces of bad news.
A few days ago, Yingbu's Jiujiang army was defeated by Xiang Yu, and Yingbu was executed.
And early this morning, Guan Ying's tribe, which had been unsuccessful in attacking the city for many days, was also attacked by Xiang Yu's cavalry, and Guan Ying was executed.
Liu Bang said with a mournful face: "Dear gentlemen, please give me some advice.
Otherwise, don't say anything."
Zhang Liang, who had frowned and pondered for a long time, was the first to speak: "Once these two roads are broken, we will be very passive, not only" His words were interrupted by a panicked soldier.
"Report to Xiang Yu that Xiang Yu attacked our rear camp from the north and burned down the supply camp."
Liu Bang slapped his thigh, jumped up with a sound of "Ah", and said in shock without even thinking: "Quickly, the Chinese army's tent has been moved. ” Zhang Liang quickly grabbed him and persuaded him: "Your Majesty, please don't panic.
Your Majesty, please don't panic.

Let's find out the actual situation first."
The Overlord's three thousand cavalry rode a few dozen miles after landing ashore, and detoured back to Liu Bang's rear camp and distribution center.
They suddenly broke in, beheaded more than 4,000 people, and set fire to many baggage warehouses.
Then we detoured back to the river bank again, twenty miles upstream of Wujiang County.
At this time, more than 80 ships arrived at almost the same time.
After everyone boarded the ship, the fleet turned around offshore and sailed down the river back to Jinling in two hours
