Chapter 700

Outside Xingyang, Zhang Chu's army camp.

It was late at night, and Wu Kuang was standing in front of the military map, unable to fall asleep.

Since the Daze Mountain incident, their momentum has been increasing day by day. With the disciples from the original farm and the righteous men who defected all the way, Zhang Chujun was invincible and occupied most of the land in the Central Plains south of the Dahe.

Chen Sheng established himself as king, established his capital in Chendi, commanded the princes of the world, and had the same scenery.

But within a few months, a split appeared within the rebel army.

The rebel army heading north is advancing smoothly.However, its leaders, such as military officials, invaded the land of Zhao and established themselves as kings, so they no longer obeyed orders.

The rebel armies heading east met the Tian family of Qi State and the Xiang family of Chu State, and were unable to move forward.Although the Tian family and the Xiang family still listened to Chen Du's call on the surface, they went their separate ways.They reached an agreement with Zhou Shi, the leader of the East Road Rebel Army, supported Wei Jiu as king, seized the old land of Wei State, and no longer obeyed Chen Du's orders.

The original mission of the various rebels heading south was to capture Jiujiang, Hengshan, Nanjun and other Southern Chu areas.But before they crossed the Huai River, they encountered resistance from the Mohist family and the local county soldiers. Not only did they fail to complete their original mission, they even failed to complete the first step of capturing Shouchun, the old capital of Chu State, and they returned in a disastrous defeat.

The main force of Zhang Chu's army was still concentrated on the west road, in order to attack Guanzhong and destroy Qin.Under the leadership of Wu Kuang, its elite forces attacked Xingyang, and the other two partial armies attacked from Yingchuan and Nanyang respectively, in order to break through Hangu and Wuguan of Qin State.

The army attacking from Yingchuan was smashed to pieces by Li Xin's [-] flying army after entering Sanchuan, and the whole army was wiped out.

The army that attacked Nanyang had its [-]-mile-long land logistics and grain road blocked many times by Mengshi's iron cavalry, and retreated after running out of food, losing half of its troops. Yang rests.

Now among all the rebels, he is the only one left who is still dealing with the Qin army.

Wu Kuang is very clear that the responsibility on his shoulders is heavy.

Xingyang and Aoshan reflected each other, followed by Chenggao. The main force of Li You's Sanchuan army was stationed at these three places, like an iron wall, blocking his advance.

Whether it's Ao Cang on Mount Ao, Hulao Pass in Chenggao, or Xingyang City, which is the key operation of the empire, they are all important military sites that are easy to defend but difficult to attack.

This area is also the dividing point of power between the empire and the Kanto princes.

Now the other two armies in the West Route Army have failed, and Zhao Guo's military officials refused to send troops to reinforce them. They captured Hanoi according to the original plan and attacked Luoyang from the north of Sanchuan.In this way, Wu Kuang can only break through from this area.

Over the past few days, Wu Kuang has repeatedly attacked Xingyang, but they all returned in defeat. The rebel army suffered a lot of casualties, and their morale was even lower.

Wu Kuang already wanted to retreat, but he couldn't.The time for Chen Sheng to become king was very short, and there was already a state of separation within the rebel army at this time.At this time, they need a victory too much to stabilize their hearts.

If they retreat, the rebel army may be completely divided.

"Fake King, General Tian Hu is out to see you."

"Let him in."

Wu Kuang waved his hand and didn't care.But when Tian Hu entered the tent, his heart was full of vigilance, and he woke up suddenly.

There was a killing intent on Tian Hu's body.Wu Kuang is temporarily unsure, who is the cause of Tian Hu's killing intent?
"Tian Hu, you came late at night, what are you talking about?"

"The battle is not going well, and the brothers are very angry. Let me ask, does the fake king have any good strategies to deal with the Qin army?"

"Now that the rebels from all walks of life are not attacking smoothly, and Li You is defending Xingyang like an iron bucket, I'm afraid there will be no good solution in a short time."

"Since we can't attack, let's retreat! Now that Daliang, Suiyang, Xinzheng, and Yangdi are all big cities in our hands, where can we go?"

Wu Kuang shook his head and sighed at Tian Hu's words.

"I can't retreat. With this retreat, I am afraid that the situation will be reversed."

After Tian Hu heard this, he smiled coldly.

"I don't understand this. Since you can't attack and you won't retreat, isn't it just taking the lives of your brothers to fill this hole for nothing?"

Wu Kuang noticed the change in Tian Hu's attitude, felt depressed, and reprimanded him without explaining.

"The king accepted me as a false king and ordered me to lead hundreds of thousands of troops westward into Guanzhong. If I say you can't retreat, you can't. Go down!"

Tian Hu didn't leave, but still stood there, looking at Wu Kuang with a cold light in his eyes.

"The hundreds of thousands of troops are not yours alone. Among them are my brothers from Chiyou Hall and Gonggong Hall. If you don't retreat, then I will leave with the brothers from these two halls. We also have a share in this fight , My brothers and I want Yingchuan County, it’s not too much! You take the rest of the army, and you can go to Daliang or Suiyang, it doesn’t matter.”

Wu Kuang was furious, drew out his sword and pointed it at Tian Hu.

"Tian Hu, are you going to rebel?"

Tian Hu laughed out loud.

"We were rebelling, have you forgotten?"

Following this laugh, there was the sound of fighting outside the tent.

"You traitor!"

Wu Kuang stabbed at Tian Hu. The opponent had been prepared for a long time, pulled out the tiger soul, and with a slight pick, Wu Kuang's sword edge was staggered.In terms of cultivation, Tian Hu is better than Wu Kuang.

But at this time, Tian Hu had no intention of fighting Wu Kuang, so he shouted.

"Go!"

Six Sword Slaves rushed into the tent from all directions, with their sword intent aimed at Wu Kuang.

The six sword slaves have honed for many years in order to fuse sword intent with each other and complete this must kill for a while.

When Zhao Gao trained them, it was to deal with Zhao Shuang.But in the palace of the empire, Zhao Gao didn't see whether his years of painstaking efforts finally succeeded or not, he had already failed.

The six people split up and reunited, and in just a moment, Wu Kuang received several swords and fell to the ground, dying.

Tian Hu looked at Wu Kuang, but he couldn't bear it after all.

"I told you a long time ago that we are going our separate ways. I occupy Yingchuan and you occupy Dangjun. You must listen."

Wu Kuang looked at Tian Hu with a hint of pity in his eyes.

"Do you think Zhao Shuang can make you king in Han so easily? You..."

There was a bit of sadness in Wu Kuang's words, but he lost his voice before he finished speaking.

The tent door opened, Tian Yan came from outside, looked at Wu Kuang who had fallen on the ground, just glanced at him, then turned his gaze, and took the soldier talisman Wu Kuang put on the table.

"Ah Yan, what should we do now?"

Six Sword Slaves followed Tian Yan's side, respectful.Tian Yan handed the soldier talisman to Tian Hu.

"Second Uncle, take the soldier talisman and go to take over the army under Wu Kuang's command, and don't cause any trouble."

"I'm going right now."

Tian Hu was in a hurry, and before he had walked a few steps, he was stopped by Tian Yan.

"In addition, report the matter here to Chen Du and tell Chen Sheng."

"what?"

Tian Hu stopped in his tracks, shocked.

"Even if Second Uncle doesn't say anything, Chen Sheng will know about it."

"But……"

"Don't worry, the second uncle said, not only will Chen Sheng not blame him, but he will reward the second uncle."

"This... ok!"

Tian Hu left the camp and went to dispatch troops.

Tian Yan lowered his body, brushed Wu Kuang's cheek with his hand, and made him close his eyes.
