~Date: ~October 11th~

The Mianshui War finally came to an end.

Xiang Zhuang must estimate that at least 100,000 Han troops died in battle or trampled on each other, there were about 200,000 prisoners of war kneeling on the ground and begging for surrender, and there were almost 100,000 defeated soldiers scattered into the mountains and fields. At most, the Han troops broke through the system would not exceed 100,000 cavalry at most. After this battle, the Han army was really injured!

However, what Xiang Zhuang is most concerned about is Liu Bang's life and death.

Whether Liu Bang was captured or killed alive will directly affect the subsequent unified process.

If Liu Bang was captured or killed alive, then there would be civil strife in the Han Dynasty. Even if the Han Dynasty did not have civil strife, it would definitely be volatile. The resistance the Chu army encountered when attacking Guanzhong would be much smaller. If Liu Bang was not dead, there would probably be a fierce battle between Chu and Han when attacking Guanzhong next.

"Have you ever captured Liu Bang?"

"Have you ever killed Liu Bang?"

"Where is the Han King's Chronicle?"

"Where is the old man Liu Bang?"

On the battlefield where corpses were everywhere, Xiang Zhuang asked everyone, and at this moment, Xiang Zhuang was not as calm as before. There was no way. Liu Bang was a great man who created the Han Empire. The entire Chinese nation was named Han because of him, but now, Xiang Zhuang has stepped on Liu Bang under his feet. How could he not be excited?

However, all the soldiers I met on the road shook their heads and said they didn't see Liu Bang.

After a long time, Xiang Zhuang met Meng Shi and Hu Yan, who were intercepting the Han army's rear. Xiang Zhuang rushed forward and asked, "Have you ever intercepted the old man Liu Bang?"

Hu Yan said annoyedly: "No, let Liu Bang run away."

Meng Feng also said: "The king, only the Han Taiwei Zhou Bo."

"What? Old Liu Bang ran away?" Xiang Zhuang was disappointed and immediately said, "Chase, send troops to chase him!"

Meng Feng said hurriedly: "Don't worry, I have sent Meng Yuan, Meng Liao, each of them leads five thousand cavalry to chase him. Liu Bang's old man cannot escape." Meng Yuan is Meng Feng's eldest son, Meng Liao is Meng Feng's second son, and both brothers are already adults. They have learned a good martial arts from Nai's father, and they are known as the Five Horses of the Great Chu together with Pang Zheng, Xiang Zhi and Gao Lang.

Xiang Zhuang was still worried and ordered Hu Yan to say, "Click the wolf cavalry to chase after you again, no matter what, Liu Bang cannot be left!"

"Here!" Hu Yan responded with a loud bang and recruited the wolf cavalry. Only the three imperial guards of the Great Chu were the same cavalry. The main forces of the Tianlang Army and the Tiger Ben Army were all infantry, but each had three thousand cavalry, called the wolf cavalry and the tiger cavalry, and were all elite. Especially Hu Yan's three thousand wolf cavalry, most of whom were recruited from Liaodong.

In a short while, Xiang Tuo, Wu She, Bi Shu, Baili Xian and other important civil and military officials also arrived one after another.

Xiang Zhuang immediately ordered Xiang Tuo, "Zi Yan, send an order. Let the soldiers speed up the cleaning of the battlefield, settle the prisoners of war, and then the entire army rest for one night. They will set off the camp and head north early tomorrow morning and knock on Wu Pass!"

"Here!" Xiang Tuo responded with a loud bang, turned around and went there happily.

Xiang Zhuang held Bi Shu's hands again and said, "If you learn swords, if you destroy the Han Dynasty, you should remember your first merit!"

"The king is so serious." Bi Shu smiled slightly and said calmly, "The reason why our Da Chu was able to win the battle of Mianshui is due to hundreds of thousands of soldiers fighting for the enemy, but I have only fulfilled my duties.

Xiang Zhuang shook Bi Shu's hands vigorously, then freed up his right hand and laughed and said, "Learn from the sword, Ziliang, let's go, I will drink three hundred cups with you tonight. Hahaha..." The departure of Liu Bang made Xiang Zhuang feel a little regretful, but no matter what, the Chu army finally won the Battle of Mianshui, which is indeed worth it!

Bai Ji led a team of cavalry to rush into the Han army camp like a storm.

The entire camp was almost empty, with discarded weapons, golden drums, and flags everywhere, but few people were seen. It was not until I entered the baggage camp in the rear that I finally met a group of Han soldiers. Under the temptation of military achievements, Bai Ji and dozens of cavalry under his command suddenly shone with their eyes, pulled out the ring-headed sword and rushed over.

The group of Han soldiers immediately shouted and fled in scattered.

However, the footsteps of the defeated Han army soldiers were very empty. After a few steps, they were caught by the Chu cavalry. Bai Ji used horsepower to lightly slash the neck of a Han army school. The Han army school fell to the ground screaming, but several drops of blood splashed on Bai Ji's face. Bai Ji only touched it casually and didn't care.

In less than a moment, more than a dozen Han army defeated soldiers were killed.

Baimao owls the Han army's terror level hanging on the horse's neck. As soon as he rolls over the horse, some soldiers shouted excitedly: "Look, there are Han soldiers in front, and there are many in front!" Baimao looked up and saw that there were more Han soldiers in front, but most of these Han soldiers were pale and frivolous, as if they were all wounded.

Almost at the same time, several Chu cavalry also discovered this group of wounded Han soldiers.

The next moment, these Chu cavalry shouted at the same time, as if they smelled a bloody wolf pack, and rode their horses and raised their swords to kill the group of Han soldiers. These were the wounded soldiers of the Han army. If they were left behind, they would have no share in their military achievements. Under the reward mechanism for military merit, it would be difficult for the Chu soldiers not to be bloodthirsty.

With just a few breaths, hundreds of wounded Han soldiers were killed by the Chu army.

Many Chu soldiers were still not satisfied and overturned dozens of nearby tents and cut off the heads of the wounded Han soldiers who had died inside. There was no way. These were all the soldiers who didn't know half of the big words. They didn't care whether the deceased was the most important. They knew that the Han soldiers could earn military merits, exchange for titles and bounties, and everything else was nonsense.

A Chu soldier owled more than a dozen Han soldiers' heads, then used his blood-red puffed right hand to take out half a cake from his arms. While eating it in the cold water, he said proudly to Chu soldiers beside him: "Black dog, I have to get a title that I can't get any more, hehehe, there are eleven heads!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a cavalry in front turned back and shouted: "There are thousands of defeated soldiers in front!"

The Chu soldiers who were searching for the bodies of the Han army everywhere suddenly had their eyes lit up, and they quickly turned over and swept forward like a whirlwind.

"These Yuezhi people are simply sheep, no, they are worse than sheep!" Seeing that the Yuezhi people were defeated again, Zhou Guanfu was furious and turned his head to Lu Tai and said, "Please let me go this time?"

But Lu Tai waved his hand and said calmly: "Surviving, we are just a feint attack, so there is no need to take it too seriously."

Zhou Guanfu frowned and shouted: "If I could take it down, wouldn't it be better if I could burn the Chu army's food and grass?"

Lu Tai said: "Chu State is rich and even if it burns millions of stones of food and grass, it will not hurt its roots. The purpose of our trip is to mobilize the Chu State's naval army and create opportunities for the decisive battle in the Mianshui River."

As soon as he finished speaking, a fast horse suddenly rushed from the north.

Before he could approach, the cavalry on the horse shouted in panic: "General, trouble is wrong, trouble is wrong..."

Lu Tai felt excited and shouted loudly at the cavalry and said, "Shut up, with this general here, the sky will not fall!"

The cavalry's shouts suddenly stopped, and then they turned over and got off the horse and knelt down in front of Lu Tai on one knee, then lowered their voices to Lu Tai. Zhou Guanfu said, "Two generals, the big thing is wrong. Our army was defeated in Mianshui. More than 500,000 troops have been destroyed. The Taiwei was killed in battle. The king, military advisor and deputy military advisor were still alive and dead..."

"What did you say?" Lu Tai was shocked when he heard this and said in a lost voice, "How is this possible?"

Zhou Guanfu's eyes turned dark and almost fainted when he heard this. Fortunately, Zhou Yafu was quick-eyed and quickly supported him. After a while, Zhou Guanfu finally recovered from the bad news. Then he drank the northwest direction and gritted his teeth and said, "Old man Xiang Zhuang, if I don't kill you in this life, I, Zhou Guanfu, will not be a human being!"

After saying that, Zhou Guanfu ordered Zhou Yafu again: "Yafu, gather people immediately!"

"Yes!" Zhou Yafu responded with a loud bang, turned around and was about to gather people, but was grabbed by Lu Tai.

Lu Tai grabbed Zhou Yafu and turned his head to Zhou Guanfu and said, "Shengzhi, what are you going to do?"

Zhou Guanfu gritted his teeth and said, "The revenge of killing his father is irreconcilable, so I will go to find Xiangzhuang's old man to take revenge!"

"Nonsense!" Lu Tai stomped his feet and said anxiously, "The king's army of more than 500,000 was defeated in one battle. Now we only have 50,000 cavalry left. How can we be the enemy of Xiang Zhuang? Isn't it a sheep entering the tiger's mouth when you go?"

"Are you afraid of death?" Zhou Guanfu glared at Lu Tai coldly and said, "It's okay if you don't go. I will only take the three thousand elite cavalry in the headquarters to go!" After saying this, Zhou Guanfu cut off a corner of the battle robe with his backhand and threw it on Lu Tai's face, saying sternly, "But the brotherhood between you and me is like this robe, and it has been broken in one sword from then on!"

"Surviving!" Lu Tai said angrily, "I don't mean that!"

"What do you mean?" Zhou Guanfu said furiously, "My father is dead, the king, the military advisors are still alive and dead. If we don't hurry up, we will go north to pick him up and help him, and why do we keep him here?!"

"Calm down, we must calm down!" Lu Tai took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "The Han Kingdom has reached a critical juncture of life and death, we must calm down!" After saying this, Lu Tai said again, "Have you ever thought about victory? The king's army has been destroyed. Next, the old man Xiangzhuang will definitely rush his troops north and knock on Guanzhong. Guanzhong is now empty. Even if Ya Xiangzhi is a good plan, how can he resist it without any soldiers?"

Zhou Guanfu was stunned and furious: "What do you think you should do?"

"Let's go east!" Lu Tai raised his horse whip and pointed to the east of Mianshui, saying a grim voice, "With the Chu army not yet reacted, crossed Mianshui and went east, burned, killed, plundered and swept across Nanjun, Hengshan County, and Jiujiang County, and pointed directly at Zhiling. Only in this way, some of the Chu army could be transferred back. Only in this way can we reduce pressure to Guanzhong and Yaxian!"

"Okay, then go east. Even if I can't get down to Ziling, I will still bend Xiang County and I will be digging the Xiang family's ancestral tomb!" Zhou Guanfu waved his iron fist and roared to the sky, then knelt down to the ground in the northwest direction, crying loudly, "Father, my father, I kowtowed to you, howl..." (,.
