My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?

Chapter 234 Let Xiang Yu die in his father’s body!

The night is dark.

The central city of Xiangcheng was bustling with people.

"Children of the Xiang family, listen to the order! Quickly grab your armor and sword, mount your horse and leave the house!"

"The enemy is attacking the city, we will quickly board the city to guard it!"

"Quick! Run! All the soldiers and servants will leave the mansion immediately. Anyone who dares to stay in the mansion after a quarter of an hour will be killed!"

The heritage of being a general for many generations is not just about military skills or tactical experience.

It’s also the population!

He is a tribesman who has been exercising, teaching military skills, and practicing riding and archery since he was a child!

The clan land of each family with generations of generals is like a military camp.

This was true for the Qin State before the reform, and even more so for the Chu State before the reform!
In just three-quarters of an hour, more than [-] Xiang clan members who were still sleeping had finished dressing up, riding out of the house on horseback, and assembled on the main road of Xiang City.

More than five thousand of them were heavily armored and armed with large guns.

There are more than a thousand people riding war horses and holding horse poles.

And behind them, more than [-] soldiers guarding the hospital have also assembled and are ready!

Xiang Cang put on his helmet and rode his horse forward, shouting in a deep voice: "Xiang Feng led a thousand of his disciples and three thousand soldiers to reinforce Nancheng."

"Xiang Wu led [-] of his disciples and [-] soldiers to the city from the North City Horse Road, and immediately transferred to the West City!"

"The rest will go to war with someone!"

As soon as the words fell, Xiang's children quickly divided into three groups and rushed towards the three city walls.

Xiang Cang even led a thousand of his clan's elites who were capable of riding and fighting to ride their horses ahead and rush towards the west city.

"Hold on, you must hold on!" Looking at the Qin army's banner standing at the top of the city, Xiang Cang murmured nervously: "Brother entrusted Xiang City to XX, how can XX live up to eldest brother's trust!"

The speed of the war horse under his crotch was pushed to the limit. Xiang Cang wished he could flash to the west city to join the battle!
Unfortunately, the road must be crossed step by step after all.

When Xiang Cang finally arrived at Xicheng, what he saw was the city gate that had been opened!
Xiang Cang's brain buzzed, almost stagnating, and he lost his ability to think.

The city gate was breached?
The next moment, a surge of anger surged into his heart. Looking at Xiao Tu's troops blocking the city gate from a distance, Xiang Cang roared: "Children of the Xiang family, charge and kill!"

While shouting and shouting, Xiang Cang clamped the horse's belly tightly with his legs, and pointed the horse spear at the neck of a Qin soldier with both hands.

Xiao Tu shouted in shock: "Everyone, be careful, Chu army reinforcements have arrived, shieldmen come forward!"

"Array of gunmen!"

A row of shield bearers immediately stepped forward, and the spearmen stood behind the shield bearers, with spears in their hands arrayed like a forest.

Xiang Cang shouted: "Come into the formation with someone!"

While shouting, Xiang Cang stretched out his arms, driving the heavy horse to swing the spear in front of him.

In the absence of high-bridge saddles, most soldiers would be pushed off their horses by the reaction force of the collision of weapons.

But Xiang Cang's legs were tightly clamped on the horse's belly as if they had roots. However, his center of gravity was a little unstable. He couldn't control his upper body and couldn't jerk to kill the enemy. His whole body was still firmly sitting on the horse's back.

Xiang Cang didn't panic at all and shouted in a deep voice: "Step!"

After giving the order, Xiang Cang placed his horse's hind hooves on his crotch to support his body, and stepped heavily on the shield erected by the Qin army with his front hooves!
"Oh!"

The dull sound was deafening, and the horse's hooves easily trampled the shield down, crushing the shield-bearer hidden under the shield.

Xiang Cang, who was sitting astride the horse, also took the opportunity to adjust his body shape. He raised the horse stick in his hand and aimed at the Qin army in front of him to stab him.

In the blink of an eye, two lives were taken in succession. Xiang Cang once again clamped the horse's belly and drove the horse to charge, shouting: "Charge and kill!"

Xiao Tu's military formation was like paper in front of Xiang's elite, and was easily knocked away.

Ying Chengyu couldn't help but show caution on his face, and shouted: "Order! Xi Feng's troops speed up!"

"Order! Personal soldiers and family soldiers, turn to the horse road!"

As for Xiao Tu’s headquarters?
There is no need to send orders anymore.

Xiang Cang has already used the speed of his war horse and his condescending attack style to kill Xiao Tu's troops!
"kill!"

He then cut off the head of a Qin soldier with his horse, and Xiang Cang's eyes suddenly opened up.

Xiang Cang unexpectedly discovered that Ying Chengyu had led his family and personal soldiers onto the horse path, and even closed the gate from the horse path to the city!
Xiang Cang was slightly startled, then he laughed and shouted: "You just abandoned the soldiers and horses in the city when you saw our army charging, and even more abandoned the city gate that was finally taken down?"

"Everyone in the world says that Lord Chang'an is as brave as a tiger, but I only see Lord Chang'an as timid as a mouse!"

"My disciples, continue to charge forward, turn around at the city gate and fight back!"

"Slaughter all the Qin dogs!"

Ying Chengyu's concession greatly encouraged the Xiang family's descendants.

Listening to Xiang Cang's shouts, all the Xiang family's descendants shouted in unison: "Slaughter all the Qin dogs!"

However, as they continued to move forward, a golden shadow burst out of the darkness.

It was a chariot drawn by four horses!
Followed closely by the second and third planes!

Sixty chariots lined up in threes and threes and rushed toward the west gate.

Xi Feng shouted angrily: "Archer, shoot!"

At the command, sixty archers standing in the chariot drew their bows and nocked arrows, aiming at Xiang Cang's troops and shooting arrows.

Xiang Cang's pupils suddenly shrank.

The superiority of cavalry and chariots depends on the battlefield environment.

In large battlefields or mountainous and hilly battlefields that can be turned around, cavalry has a great advantage over chariots.

But this place is the city gate cave!

The flexibility of the cavalry cannot be used at all, and they can only fight head-on with the chariots.

The only thing waiting for the cavalry is to be crushed!

Xiang Cang shouted: "Get on the horse..." Xiang Cang subconsciously wanted to get on the horse road to avoid it, but the gate of the horse road to the city had already been closed by Ying Chengyu.

Looking behind him again, Xiang Cang saw that Xiao Tu's troops had reorganized and were blocking Xiang Cang's troops' return path.

Even if Xiang Cang can lead his army to break through Xiao Tu's army, how long will it take?
In that time, the Qin army’s chariots would have already rushed over!

Xiang Cang had no choice but to change the topic: "Raise your shield and charge faster!"

Xiang Cang slowed down slightly and merged into the cavalry formation. Dozens of Xiang's disciples stepped forward consciously, turned out their round shields behind their backs and blocked them in front of them, and accelerated forward against the arrows fired from the left side of the Qin military chariot.

Xi Feng stared at Xiang's cavalry with his eyes fixed on him, calculating the distance in his mind.

When the distance between the two armies was only thirty feet, Xiang Cang shouted: "The shield troops retreat, and the elite troops advance!"

The shield-bearing cavalry blocking the front slowed down and merged into the army. Xiang Cang was about to lead his elite troops forward when he heard Xi Feng shouting: "Crossbow!"

The first three carriages on the left and right picked up Qin-style Chu crossbows, slightly aimed in the direction of Xiang Cang's troops, and then pulled the connecting rod wildly.

"Boom!!!"

The dense and subtle sound of crossbow strings sounded like firecrackers.

In just ten breaths and a short distance of twenty feet, all the arrows contained in the crossbow were fired into the air, and sixty arrows were sprayed towards Xiang Cang's cavalry!

"Appreciate~~~"

"what!"

"No!"

More than ten war horses were hit by arrows and fell down, unable to get up again.

Several descendants of the Xiang family who rushed at the front were unable to hold the horse's belly after being hit by arrows, and fell to the ground.

But whether they were thrown off their horses or fell without power, there was only one fate waiting for them.

Trampled to pieces by Pao Ze's war horses!

The war horse suddenly staggered, and Xiang Cang knew very well that it was because it had just trampled to death a descendant of the Xiang family.

That man might be Xiang Cang's nephew, or he might be Xiang Cang's cousin.

But Xiang Cang had no time to be sad.

Looking at the Qin army's chariots that were close at hand, Xiang Cang quickly controlled the horses and roared angrily: "Spread out and speed up! Charge into the formation!"

"Getting out of the city gate is victory!"

In the midst of shouting and drinking, the two armies officially collided!

Whether it is the Qin Army's war horse or the Xiang's war horse, a head-on collision while running at high speed will lead to death!
The battle lines between the two armies were like a meat grinder, constantly devouring the lives of the horses of the two armies.

The death of every Chu army horse will cause a Xiang son to fall off his horse, and then be trampled to pulp by the wheels of the chariot or the horses of Paoze!
The death of every Qin army horse will... the charioteer directly cuts off the horse's rope with a knife. Although this will cause the chariot to lose control, the Qin army on the chariot can still continue to kill the enemy!
The sword pierced the heart of another charioteer, and Xiang Cang roared angrily: "Disperse! Avoid the battle!"

"Don't ask to kill the enemy, just rush out of the city! Get out of the city!"

After paying the lives of more than [-] Xiang family members, Xiang Cang's troops finally broke out of the city gate.

However, the infantry of the Western Front had already come to cover them up.

Ying Chengyu has even returned to the city wall, causing thousands of crossbowmen to draw the strings of their crossbows.

Looking down at Xiang Cang's troops at his feet, Ying Chengyu ordered in a deep voice: "Shoot three times in turn! Release!"

The sound of the crossbow string sounded again, and crossbow arrows were fired from Xiang City, which originally belonged to the Xiang family, towards the children of the Xiang family.

Seeing a clan member being killed by a crossbow and looking around at the infantrymen advancing in formation in the distance, Xiang Cang wailed and roared: "Disciples of the Xiang family, Sui..."

However, before Xiang Cang could finish his words, an arrow suddenly pierced the back of his neck!

Xiang Cang was in a daze as he looked at the arrow that had broken his Adam's apple and appeared within his field of vision.

As Xiang Yan's younger brother, Xiang Cang originally thought that he just lacked an opportunity, otherwise he would be able to win consecutive battles like Xiang Yan.

But to this day, the opportunity he wanted has still not come, and it will never come!

The strength in his body was draining away, and Xiang Cang fell backward helplessly.

Staring at the dark sky with godless eyes, Xiang Cang couldn't understand why he died here so hastily!
The hexagram master put the long bow behind him again, and complained speechlessly: "You charge so far forward, shout so loudly, and don't even let your own soldiers protect you. You must be looking down on me!"

The children of the Xiang family couldn't hear the hexagram master's complaints. They just watched in shock as Xiang Cang's body fell down.

"Second uncle!"

"Brother Cang!"

"Get Uncle Cang's body quickly. Don't let Uncle Cang's body be humiliated by the Qin army!"

"Go and find the clan leader quickly. You must inform the clan leader about this matter!"

Xiang Cang died in battle, and the Xiang family's cavalry was leaderless.

Turn around and attack the city?

Give me a break.

Whose cavalry can attack a city?

As a clan elder shouted, a group of Xiang's cavalry finally had an idea and charged towards Anling City.

Ying Chengyu ordered in a deep voice: "Order! The infantry accompanying the chariots will stabilize the formation and intercept the Chu army."

"Part of the West Front sent out thirty chariots to chase the Chu cavalry, and the remaining thirty entered the city and charged along the main road in the city. Xiao Tu's troops were ordered to follow the chariots to cover!"

"Order Li Xin's troops to enter the city, circle from the west city to the south city, and attack the Chu army defending the city."

"Instruct all ministries to surround and kill Chu General Xiang Yanzisi at all costs!"

Is it cruel to kill the enemy in the cradle?

It is indeed a bit cruel.

Fortunately, counting the time, Xiang Yu was not born yet.

So Ying Chengyu chose to let the future Overlord of Western Chu die in his father's body!
