It was already evening when Fan Kuai's army joined forces with Zhou Ju's remnants to the outside of Shouchun City.

Zhou Ju's remnants met on the way to Quyang. Needless to say, they were incorporated by Fan Kuai on the spot.

Seeing that the four gates of Shouchun were wide open, and there was no one in the city and outside, Fan Kuai was a little puzzled, so he said to Zhou Jiu, the rebel general who was accompanying him, "Zhou Jiu, take people in and see, what's going on?"

Zhou Ju did not dare to disobey Fan Kuai's orders, so he had to order hundreds of remaining troops from his troops to enter the city.

After entering the city, Zhou Ju found that the entire Shouchun was empty. Not only did the people run away, but the large amount of weapons stored in the city were gone. Zhou Ju couldn't help feeling bitter when he saw it. These weapons and food were prepared for the 50,000 troops in Gaixia. Now the whole family is gone. Uncle Zhou Yin knows that he can spare him?

After leaving the city, Zhou Ju still had to smile for Fan Kuai and said with a charming face: "General, the defeated Chu army heard that you have led the army here and have abandoned the city and fled."

"Haha, these stray dogs ran fast." Fan Kuai laughed twice, then looked behind him and said, "Sent orders to the army enter the city to camp, have a full meal tonight, and it will not be too late to attack the Chu army's defeated soldiers tomorrow." After that, Fan Kuai said to Zhou Jiu again, "Zhou Jiu, the food, grass, wine and food required by the army will be left to you to solve."

How dare Zhou Ju refuse? He said with a bitter face: "No."

Xiang Zhuang pressed the hilt of the sword in his hand and stood solemnly on a cliff in the wind.

Behind Xiang Zhuang were generals such as Huan Chu, Ji Bu, Zhongli Mei, as well as Wu She and the depressed Wei Liao. Although the old guy still refused to admit it, Xiang Zhuang had already determined that he was Wei Liao.

Below the cliff, there is a terrain of the valley. The terrain is flat, but there are wormwood overgrown.

Xiang Zhuang pointed to Juegu under his feet and said lightly: "It's this, this is the burial place of Fan Kuai's army!"

Huan Chu, Ji Bu, Zhonglimei, Xiao Gongjiao and other generals looked at each other, not knowing where Xiang Zhuang got the confidence? Wu She also shook her head secretly, only Wei Liao frowned slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.

Xiang Zhuang suddenly turned around and looked at Wei Liao and asked, "Sir, how should I fight this battle?"

Wei Liao rolled his eyes and ignored Xiang Zhuang at all. Xiang Zhuang was not angry and said with a smile: "It seems that the sir is still angry about what happened in the morning. Well, I will apologize to you. As the saying goes, I am forced to do so. I hope you can forgive me." After that, Xiang Zhuang really knelt down on one knee to Wei Liao.

Seeing this, all the generals of Huan Chu were moved. If they were the arrogant Xiang Yu, they would never be able to do this.

Wei Liao was expressionless, but he turned around and avoided Xiang Zhuang's kneeling ceremony, and said lightly: "I am a mountain village man, and I can't stand such a great gift from the general."

Xiang Zhuang was still not angry, and stood up immediately and said, "Since the sir is unwilling to give him advice, then forget it. Although Fan Kuai is brave and good at fighting, he is just a brave but unscheming man. Although this general only has three thousand defeated soldiers, he can still destroy him in a flash!"

After saying this, Xiang Zhuang said again: "Zhongli obeys the order!"

"The last one will be here!"

"Leading 800 troops to ambush in the dense forests north of Shouchun City, but seeing the beacons rising in the mountains, I took advantage of the situation to attack Shouchun! Don't worry about the defenders in the city. This general has set up an ambush in the city. At that time, the city gate will be opened to pick up your troops into the city!"

"promise!"

"Huan Chu, Ji Bu, Xiao Gongjiao!"

"The last one will be here!"

"Each leader of five hundred people and ambushed on the road. When Fan Kuai's army comes, ignore it. Just let them go and wait until they are defeated and fled, and then intercept them along the way!"

"promise!"

"Yu Ziqi!"

"The last one will be here!"

"Lead 500 people to prepare more firewood, dead leaves, sulfur, and other items that cause fire in the valley. Remember to add more camouflage and not be too easily seen through. When Fan Kuai's army enters the valley, set fire to the valley!"

"promise!"

"Gaochu!"

"The villain is here!"

"Lead fifty sharp men to be responsible for receiving the response on this cliff. When Fan Kuai's army enters the valley, he will raise the fire as a sign! Also, don't forget to prepare a large hanging basket!"

"promise!"

"Jing Qian!"

"The villain is here!"

"Lead two hundred elite soldiers and wait for tomorrow to follow me to lure the enemy outside the mountain!"

"promise!"

Xiang Zhuang waved his hand again, and the generals turned around and left, and then they each raised their troops and left.

Xiang Zhuang then walked to Wei Liao and said lightly: "Mr. Wei Liao, I am the general who made such arrangements. I wonder if I can defeat Fan Kuai's army?"

Wei Liao looked up at the sky, but still ignored Xiang Zhuang.

"It seems that the gentleman has a bad temper." Xiang Zhuang smiled slightly and said, "But it doesn't matter. I can wait. One day, the gentleman will give advice on the Chu army, haha."

After saying that, Xiang Zhuang left straight, leaving only Wei Liao and Wu She to face each other.

After a while, Wu Shecai said half-believingly: "Sir, can the General's arrangement really destroy Fan Kuai's army?"

"It will be destroyed naturally." In front of Wu She, Wei Liao did not continue to remain silent. He said now, "But what if he defeated Fan Kuai's army? Now the foundation of Chu has been lost, with only three thousand troops left for hundreds of thousands, while Han has counselors, fierce generals are like rain, and millions of armored soldiers. If Chu wants to revive it, there is almost no hope."

The next day, the sound of horns rang out in Shouchun City early in the morning.

Fan Kuai left Zhou Ju with hundreds of remaining soldiers to defend the city, and he set up a large army and left the city in a mighty manner. Then he followed the road to the mountainous area in the northwest. Just half a quarter of an hour ago, the scouts had just returned and found the marching stove left by the Chu army in the mountains in the northwest. Obviously, the Chu army fled from Shouchun had already rushed into the mountainous area.

Less than half an hour after the march, Fan Kuai's army arrived at the site where the scouts discovered it.

After carefully counting the number of stoves left by the Chu army, Fan Kuai found that the Chu army had lost less than 2,000 troops. Obviously, during the escape, the phenomenon of Chu army deserted never stopped. The day before yesterday morning when the Chu army was discovered, there were still more than 4,000 troops. In just two days, less than 2,000 troops were left.

The army chased forward for twenty miles and discovered the Chu army's stove again.

There were even fewer stoves discovered this time. Judging from the number of stoves, there were only more than a thousand defeated soldiers in the Chu army. Obviously, when they heard that the Han army was pursuing soldiers, the phenomenon of desertion of the Chu army's defeated soldiers became more serious, Fan Kuai couldn't help but be anxious. If this continues, when they catch up with the Chu army's defeated soldiers, there are probably only a few hundred heads left.

Fan Kuai touched one of the stoves, but unexpectedly found that the ash was still warm. He said happily: "Ha, the ash was still warm. This must have been left by the defeated Chu army in the morning. They were not far away from the front. I sent the order to speed up the marching speed, chased after them, and killed them all, hahaha..."

With Fan Kuai's order, the Han army immediately accelerated the marching speed.

After chasing for less than 30 miles, it was almost noon, and smoke suddenly came from behind the mountains ahead. The Han soldiers, who had already been chasing, were immediately excited when they saw this. They rushed up the mountains one by one. Looking down from the mountains, there were indeed three or five hundred Chu soldiers burying the pot on the back of the mountains.

Seeing the Han army's pursuit suddenly emerging from the mountains, the defeated Chu army immediately exploded, threw it down and ran away.

A general of the Chu army wearing armor and tiger skin cloak ran a few steps, suddenly turned around and turned back, shouting in panic: "Where is the jade seal? Where is my Qin King's jade seal!?"

Fan Kuai, who was leading the army to chase down the mountain, heard it from afar and was immediately overjoyed.

The reason why Liu Bang sent Fan Kuai to lead the army this time was mainly for the Qin King's Jade Seal!

After the Guan Ying cavalry killed Xiang Yu by the Wujiang River, they did not find the Qin King's jade seal, and even the black horse that Xiang Yu had always kept away from him and the beautiful Yu Ji were not found. Therefore, Liu Bang suspected that the Qin King's jade seal was probably no longer by Xiang Yu's side, but was taken away by the remnants of the Chu army who had no idea where they were hiding.

There is no need to say more about how important the Qin King's Jade Seal was to Liu Bang.

To be serious, if Liu Bang could not obtain the jade seal, he would not even be able to ascend the throne and become emperor!

Therefore, once the remnants of the Chu army were discovered, Liu Bang immediately sent his closest confidant Fan Kuai to lead 3,000 elite soldiers to chase and kill him, and also sent Zhang Liang to the Qi army camp to prevent Han Xin from sending troops to chase him, because Liu Bang was worried that the Qin King's jade seal would fall into Han Xin's hands. Although Han Xin has not revealed his rebellion recently, people will change, right?

When Fan Kuaizheng was secretly happy, a Chu army school at the foot of the mountain suddenly shouted excitedly: "General, I'm looking for the jade seal, I'm looking for the Qin King's jade seal!" After that, the Chu army school handed a brocade box to the Chu army general wearing armor and tiger skin cloak. The Chu army general took the brocade box, turned around and ran away.

"I'll hear it all!" Fan Kuai drew his sword and pointed at the Chu general who fled in a panic at the foot of the mountain, and shouted loudly, "The guy wearing a tiger-skinned cloak is the general of the Chu State. Don't let him run away!"

"The general has an order to capture the general of Chu State alive and capture the tiger-skinned cloak alive!"

"The general has an order to capture the general of Chu State alive and capture the tiger-skinned cloak alive!"

"The general has an order to capture the general of Chu State alive and capture the tiger-skinned cloak alive!"

The Han army soldiers who were charging down the mountains and fields suddenly screamed like a tsunami.

The Chu general who was fleeing in a panic on the mountain road ahead was immediately anxious. In addition, the tiger-skin cloak on his body hooked the thorns on the road several times, seriously hindering his escape speed, so he simply cut off the cloak with his sword.

Fan Kuai saw it from afar, and shouted again in desperation: "The general of Chu is wearing black iron armor!"

"The general has an order. The general wearing black iron armor is the general of Chu! Capture the black iron armor alive!"

"The general has an order. The general wearing black iron armor is the general of Chu! Capture the black iron armor alive!"

"The general has an order. The general wearing black iron armor is the general of Chu! Capture the black iron armor alive!"

The Han soldiers who were chasing each other at the same time rushed to respond again, with a huge momentum.

The general of the Chu army who was fleeing in a panic in front saw the pursuit soldiers getting closer and closer, and the Han army pursuers believed that the black iron armor on his body was still unwilling to let go. In desperation, he simply took off his armor with the help of his personal soldiers and ran wildly in a light robe.

Fan Kuai, who was chasing him relentlessly, was reluctant to give up. He immediately shouted loudly again: "The general of Chu is wearing a white robe. Don't leave the white robe!"

"The general has an order. The general wearing a white robe is the general of Chu. Don't leave the white robe!"

"The general has an order. The general wearing a white robe is the general of Chu. Don't leave the white robe!"

"The general has an order. The general wearing a white robe is the general of Chu. Don't leave the white robe!"

The Han army soldiers who were chasing relentlessly shouted again. Seeing that the Chu army fleeing ahead could not escape the pursuers, they finally realized that something was wrong, so they left the Chu generals and fled in scattered. The Han army pursuers ignored these defeated soldiers at all, but chased the Chu generals in white robe and chased them all the way into the valley.
