Just after Lu Bu took two steps, Zhao Yun rushed over on horseback and shouted at him.

 "Humph!"

 In the end, Lu Bu snorted coldly, his face was ashen, and he came back sullenly.

Chapter 40 The Power of the Bed Crossbow

 40 The power of the bed crossbow

 [New book please recommend for collection! 】

 "Yafu, are you okay?"

 Xiang Yu came back covered in blood, went straight to Fan Zeng, and asked concerned.

 "Ahem, General, just come back."

 Fan Zengsheng's old wrinkled hands grabbed Xiang Yu's wet, blood-soaked hands and said weakly.

 "Yafu, Yu took you back, you need to recuperate."

 Xiang Yu was about to help Fan Zeng up, but was held back by Fan Zeng, then stared at him and said word by word: "General, promise Yafu that you will not use your emotions in the future.

 You are the commander-in-chief of the three armies, don't be brave and ruthless, and show off your bravery! "

 "Yes, Yu remembers Yafu's lesson."

 It was rare for Xiang Yu to be so obedient, so he responded.

 Xiang Yu looked at Fan Zeng, whose face was pale and blood was still on the corner of his mouth, how could he contradict him again, Xiang Yu respected Fan Zeng like a father.

 In the past, Xiang Yu would never take this kind of lesson from Fan Zeng to heart.

 Xiang Yu has absolute confidence in his bravery, thinking that no one in the world can defeat him alone.

 But this time, after Xiang Yu fought against Lu Bu, his self-consciousness subsided a lot, and he no longer thought that he was invincible in singles.

 "Withdraw troops, return to camp!"

 Immediately, Xiang Yu issued an order to withdraw with Fan Zeng and his soldiers and return to the camp.

 "Lu Bu, are you okay?"

 On Xu Feng's side, he also looked at the blood-stained Lu Bu back and asked.

 "Your Majesty, don't worry, I'm fine. They're all minor injuries. You'll be fine after a few days of recuperation."

 Lu Bu's complexion was a little pale, and his response to Xu Feng's concern was somewhat perfunctory.

 Obviously, in the previous foot battle, he was suppressed by Xiang Yu, which still made him uncomfortable.

 "It's fine, let's go back."

 Immediately, Xu Feng also brought Lu Bu, Guo Jia and the others back to Hangu Pass.

 The first meeting between Xu Feng and Xiang Yu, and the first confrontation between Lu Bu and Xiang Yu ended like this, without a big fight.

 On the second day, Xiang Yu led the army to attack again, and sent someone to send the letter of war again, asking the Qin army to go out and fight.

 Xu Feng followed Guo Jia's suggestion and refused decisively.

 Immediately, Xiang Yu led the army to forcibly tackle the problem.

 Oh oh oh!

 The low sound of the horn resounded through the vast land outside Hangu Pass.

 Soon, Xiang Yu's army appeared outside Hangu Pass, as well as a tall building car, on which stood many soldiers of Xiang Yu, holding bows and crossbows.

 "Kill!"

 Not long after, there was a fierce shout of killing on Hangu Pass, and tens of thousands of Xiang Jun soldiers began to attack the city.

 It's a pity that the terrain of Hangu Pass is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. The high pass wall is like a natural moat, and it is extremely difficult to attack by force.

 "Li You, haven't you always wanted to see the power of this kind of bed crossbow? I'll let you see it today."

 Xu Feng took Guo Jia to stay in the pass building of Hangu Pass. At this time, Xu Feng looked at Li You with a smile and said.

 Soon, on the side of the soldiers of the Qin Army, hundreds of soldiers operating the bed crossbow loaded the huge bed crossbow with arrows, and then a dozen soldiers of the Qin Army slowly turned the axles to pull the bowstrings apart.

 "Your Majesty, the bed crossbow is ready."

 "shooting."

 After receiving the order from Xu Feng, the soldiers of the Qin army adjusted the direction of the bed crossbow and shot it out of the pass.

 Buzz!

 After the crossbow arrows were shot, the air trembled and buzzed. Each of the crossbow arrows was as thick as a thumb and more than one meter long. They were shot into the air, drew a half-arc, and then fell into the group of rebels below.

 The arrows of the bed crossbow are different from the arrows of ordinary crossbows. His arrows do not need to be as sharp as ordinary arrowheads.

 The arrowheads of the bed crossbow are divided into two types. One is a small iron ball. After the arrow is thrown out by the bed crossbow, it will fall vertically from the mid-air due to the heavy weight of the arrow, and rely on its impact force to pour into the human body.

 There is also a kind of arrowhead with a shovel-shaped arrow on the head. This kind of arrow is generally used for direct shooting.

 The bed crossbow exchanged from the system is obviously an improved version, which can be shot directly, and can be thrown by raising the head of the crossbow.

 At this time, the Qin army was guarding the pass, condescending, and it was obviously the most suitable for throwing.

 "what is that?"

 At this time, the rebel soldiers attacking the city outside the pass saw a few black shadows falling from the sky. They had never seen such a long arrow before.

 Puff puff!

 In an instant, the arrowheads falling at high speed pierced into the crowd of rebels. Some unlucky soldiers were hit by arrows. The long and thick arrows directly penetrated the human body and nailed them to the ground.

 "what!"

 The nearby rebel soldiers screamed in horror. They never thought that they could be attacked so far away from Hangu Pass.

 You must know that the rebel soldiers who were shot by the arrows were five or six hundred steps away from Hangu Pass.

 These rebel soldiers had never seen arrowheads that could shoot so far.

 "It's so far away."

 Li You stood outside Hangu Pass, looking at the arrows that shot hundreds of steps away, and also praised them.

 "Your Majesty, this kind of bed crossbow is so powerful that it can shoot so far, the person who hits the arrow is sure to die.

 With such a huge crossbow, we can shoot at the rebels for several rounds when they attack the pass. "

 Li You said to Xu Feng excitedly.

 But soon, Li You's excitement subsided because he remembered that Xu Feng only brought ten bed crossbows at this time, which was too small.

 "Unfortunately, the number is too small. If hundreds of bed crossbows can be erected on the wall, it would be a dream for the rebels outside the pass to break through."

 "Haha, don't worry, before I leave Xianyang, I have ordered the craftsmen to learn how to make this kind of bed crossbow as soon as possible.

 In the future, we will have more bed crossbows of this kind and equip them in the army.

 Not only this kind of bed crossbow, but even the god arm crossbow in the hands of my guards will be equipped in the army at that time. "

 Xu Feng smiled at Li You and said,

 "Your Majesty, this statement is true."

 Li You had already seen those divine arm crossbows in Jin Da's hands, and he was even more shocked. He couldn't believe that someone could make such an exquisite arm crossbow, and he was always envious.

 Now, when he heard Xu Feng say that in the future, the Qin army would also be able to equip a large number of god arm crossbows, of course he was excited.

 Afterwards, the soldiers of the Qin army on Hangu Pass used the bed crossbow to shoot several rounds in a row, killing many rebel soldiers.

 In fact, relying on these bed crossbows alone did not kill many rebel soldiers.

 However, the bed crossbow's ability to shoot and kill enemies at such a long distance still caused a great shock to these soldiers of Xiang Jun, making them no longer feel at ease even after a long distance.

 "Aim at the enemy's building car and shoot!"

 Soon, when the building cart of the rebel army advanced outside Hangu Pass, the crossbowmen above shot arrows at the Qin army on the pass wall, causing many casualties to the Qin army.

 At this time, the soldiers of the Qin army aimed the bed crossbow at these buildings.

 "shoot!"

 Buzz!

 Following the order of a general of the Qin Army, ten bed crossbows shot at a building cart together.

 Bang bang bang!

 There was a muffled sound, and the arrowhead shot by the bed crossbow directly shot through the wooden boards on the building car, and directly shot through the rebel crossbowmen who were hiding behind the wooden boards and shooting arrows.

 Even, if the ten bed crossbows shoot at a building car, if they can shoot accurately, they can even break the wooden pillar with one arrow and make the building car collapse.

 Such power frightened many rebel soldiers, their morale plummeted, and their attack became weak.

 Tens of thousands of rebel soldiers stormed Hangu Pass for half a day, but they still failed to break through the pass wall. On the contrary, they lost thousands of soldiers and gained nothing.

 Dangdang!

 Half a day later, the sound of golden gongs sounded in Xiang Yu's camp outside the pass, and Xiang Yu called Jin to withdraw his troops.

 This siege was somewhat anticlimactic, which also proved that Xiang Yu at this time did not want to fight this kind of offensive and defensive battle with the Qin army again.

 The tall Hangu Pass is too unfavorable for Xiang Yu and his soldiers on the attacking side.

 Xiang Yu just hopes to have a field battle with the Qin army, which is what they are best at.

Chapter 41

 41 Fan Zeng's plan

 [New book please recommend for collection!Revision. 】

 "Peng!"

 "Ying Huhai, you have no guts!"

 In Xiang Yu's handsome tent, Xiang Yu smashed the wooden table with his foot angrily, and roared angrily.

 The result of this half-day storm was the same as the result of the previous half-month, returning in vain and losing troops.

 Even, because of the Qin army, Hu Hai personally led the army to help, the morale of the Qin army soared, coupled with the encouragement of the bed crossbow, the casualties of Xiang Jun's attack were greater than before.

 The most important thing is that Xu Feng still can't hold on. This situation makes Xiang Yu even more irritable, and this is what he is most worried about.

 "At first, I thought that with Ying Huhai's stupidity and arrogance, he would probably not continue to hold on. Now it seems that things are not as simple as we thought."

 Zhongli Mo on the side also looked worried, worried about their next situation.

 "Don't worry, general, guard against arrogance and impetuosity."

 Fan Zeng was still very steady and tried to comfort Xiang Yu.

 "Yafu, how could this general not be in a hurry, we have been blocked at Hangu Pass for more than 20 days, and seeing that the severe winter is coming, in half a month, the mountains here will probably be covered with heavy snow.

 At that time, it will be extremely unfavorable to our army's war.

 Moreover, I don't know how Liu Bang's fellow is progressing at this time.

 This general must not allow him to enter Xianyang city ahead of time. This general does not want to lose to him and let him be the king of Guanzhong. "

 "Haha, don't worry, General, Liu Bang can't be the king of Guanzhong.

 Except for the general, this Guanzhong king has no qualifications or ability to do it.

 As for dealing with the boy Ying Huhai in Hangu Pass, let's wait and see, let Yafu touch his temper first.

 The general will continue to send people to challenge Ying Huhai tomorrow, but he can send envoys to humiliate Ying Huhai to see his reaction.

 At the same time, continue to attack the city in the next few days, but the defeat will be even worse, and the old and weak in the battalion will be sent up. "

 Fan Zeng advised Xiang Yu.

 "Okay, just listen to Yafu."

 Sure enough, on the second day, Xiang Yu continued to send Zhong Limei and Ji Bu to lead the attack on the city, but they were all old, weak, sick and disabled.

 Soon, Xu Feng in Hangu Pass received another tactic from Xiang Yu.

 "Military Master, Xiang Yu has sent someone to fight again, what should we do?"

 Xu Feng looked at Guo Jia and asked.
