Chapter 315
The Chu army, who had eaten horse meat, was as if injected with chicken blood. At the call of Xiang Yu, stood up and vowed to fight to the death with the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty.
Zhongli was following Xiang Yu closely. As the only general whom Xiang Yu could rely on now, Zhongli was loyal and competent. He turned around and looked outside the camp gate where Yu Ziqi disappeared, and secretly prayed in his heart that Yu Ziqi's stupid hat must not come back. Judging from what King Xiang meant, this trip was death and lifeless.
But with the wish, half an hour passed, Xiang Yu's army had just been sorted out, and Yu Ziqi had already appeared outside the camp gate with one man and one horse.
When Xiang Yu saw Yu Ziqi's figure, his face immediately became gloomy: "Didn't you let you protect her?"
Yu Ziqi did not speak, but clasped his fists at Xiang Yu.
Xiang Yu did not blame him anymore. Yu Ziqi's personality is like his sister. He is the kind of person who would rather bend than bend. He must be indispensable in this battle.
"Now, I want to fight Han Xin's son to a decisive battle. Our Chu soldiers are in death, and they can only fight. If you fight out, you cannot escape from heaven, but you cannot die in vain. You are willing to join the enemy with me," Xiang Yu said resolutely.
The Chu army had no choice but to respond loudly to Xiang Yu. His heart was filled with despair, and he only hoped that he could bring some cues before his death. The so-called killing one is enough, killing two is enough to earn one.
But just as the Chu army was filled with thoughts, a shout suddenly came from the Qin army.
A short and tall Qin soldier held a simple trumpet-shaped megaphone in his hand and shouted to the Chu army: "Friends from Chu, under Xiang Yu's command. Hello. This is the Propaganda Department headed by Han Xin of the Great Qin."
For a moment, the Chu army looked at each other. The Propaganda Department was a little bit like that, and even Xiang Yu was stunned for a moment, and it sounded seriously.
"Since the war in Handan started, our side has won one after another, and Xiang Yu has retreated step by step. The commander of the Qin Dynasty, Han Xin, Marquis of Yangwu, has a virtuous life and cannot bear to commit more murders. Therefore, he hereby promotes the Chu army, letting go of the army, and Han Shuai promised to let you and others return home. Now the remnants are only Xiang Yu. If anyone can capture Xiang Yu alive, the Emperor of Qin will have an order to be granted the Marquis of Wanhu. Those who can kill his head will be granted the same title as Wanhu." The so-called soldier of the Qin army's Propaganda Department was sent by Li Yuan.
He learned a lot of methods from later generations in Wuguan and Hu Hai, and used them in military conquests. Now the two armies have surrounded Xiang Yu across the river, and have ordered people to bring these methods to Han Xin.
When Han Xin saw the various propaganda methods brought by Li Yuanbing Ding, he couldn't help but be amazed. It was the first time he saw the movable type printing and pattern printing plates specially used in the army, and he felt even more magical. When he learned that it was taught by the second emperor himself, he couldn't help but secretly get lucky because he defected to the Qin Dynasty.
Such a smart emperor is not easy to defeat the chaotic people.
Seeing the printed versions of those half-covered beauties, Han Xin couldn't help but send someone to print one. Looking at the bewitching language and the seductive concave curves on it, he repeatedly lamented the terribleness of this propaganda method for disintegrating the morale of the army.
When I think that these methods were all made by the emperor, I couldn't help but feel even more unfathomable about Hu Hai who was far away in Xianyang.
With the shouts of soldiers from the Propaganda Department of the Qin Dynasty, the arrows without lethality were airdropped into the Chu army camp with the leaflets above. There were characters and paintings on them.
At first, the Chu army thought that the Qin army was attacking the arrow formation, and they hid one after another. When they saw clearly that there were empty arrow shafts. There were sheets of paper hanging on them, and they all picked them up. Some picked up pictures of beautiful women and immediately hid them secretly. Some were chanting loudly, and their original high momentum became relaxed because of the arrival of shouting and leaflets.
This scene. Xiang Yu sighed, took his horse out of the camp, and shouted loudly to the Qin army camp opposite: "If there are surrenders, you really won't kill them."
"My general said that they are all Chinese people. If you don't distinguish between Qin and Chu, you will definitely not kill them." The Qin soldiers on the opposite side responded quickly and answered in time.
Xiang Yu was stunned, the people of China. What a heart-warming four words. When he fought, he was afraid that there would not be many people. Every time he broke through the city, he would slaughter the troops. Now, he thought that the ruler of the Qin Dynasty, who was defeated by the people of the world, was not very disappointing.
"You heard it. I will definitely not surrender to Qin. But you have followed me for many years and today there is a way to live. Let's stay or choose. If you want to leave now, if you want to leave after the war begins, don't blame me for being ruthless in painting." Xiang Yu said to the moved Chu army behind him.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw someone leaving the Chu army formation, put down his weapons, and even took off his armor. Then he bowed to Xiang Yu and turned toward the Qin army camp.
With the first one, there will be a second and a third one
These Chu troops who chose to surrender all put down their weapons, took off their armor, clasped their fists and bowed to Xiang Yu, and walked slowly out of the Chu army camp.
Yu Ziqi and Zhongli held the weapons in their hands tightly, and together with Xiang Yu's elite cavalry, which were less than 6,000 left, they all held the weapons and wanted to kill all those who surrendered.
But without Xiang Yu's orders, no one dared to move around.
The original tens of thousands of people had already left most of them. Now there are only about 30,000 people left in the Chu army camp. These people are the old subordinates of Xiang Yu. They are determined to break through the siege with Xiang Yu, fantasizing about making a comeback.
According to Yu Ziqi and Zhongli's idea, it was to take advantage of the opportunity of the Qin army accepting these surrenders and rushed over directly, and caught the Qin army off guard. But Xiang Yu stopped this idea.
It was not until the Qin camp successfully accepted the surrendered soldiers that the Chu army was ready to send troops.
The people from the Propaganda Department of the Qin Army stood on a high place with a loudspeaker and shouted loudly: "Xiang Yu, the Chu man from Huo, Marshal Han Xin, said that you did not take advantage of our army to accept the surrendered soldiers and are considered a true hero. The Marshal will not make things difficult for you. As long as you are willing to surrender, he will lose the title of Marquis of Yangwu and save your life."
Xiang Yu snorted coldly and said to his close friend, "This person is very noisy. Give me a hard bow and see if I shoot him down."
Immediately someone offered a strong bow and crossbow. Xiang Yu took it, tried his best, took the lead, bent his bow and arrow, aimed at the propaganda soldiers who thought they were safe on the platform, and there was an arrow.
"If you surrender or not die, you will be lucky and you will be able to be sealed."
"Puff" Xiang Yu had an arrow and hit the choking throat of the Qin army's propaganda soldiers. A string of blood shot out from the propaganda soldiers' neck and fell into the dust as his body fell into the dust.
"Kill" the Chu army roared in charge.
The Qin army was also prepared, and the camps were opened, and some soldiers rushed out frantically.
The decisive battle between Qin and Han Dynasties finally began. To be continued.
