The moment I heard Fan Zeng's voice.
Xiang Yu suddenly realized that the thing he was most worried about had happened.
He quickly got off the carriage and heard the shouts of fighting and killing getting closer and closer to him, and he became extremely anxious.
"Where is my warhorse? Where is my halberd?"
Originally, he thought that the Qin army had really retreated, so he simply handed over even the halberd that he never left behind to the soldiers around him for safekeeping.
However, he really didn't expect that the Qin army would attack again.
Fan Zeng said anxiously, "Your Majesty, at this hour, you are still thinking of counterattacking? Run away first!"
escape?
After hearing this, Xiang Yu laughed and said, "Prime Minister, even if the Qin army attacks, what can we do? Don't forget, they have already returned with 200,000 troops. How many more troops are there?"
"Even if the Qin army really has the strength to annihilate our army, there is no King of Western Chu who would escape. I would rather die in battle!"
Hearing the voice, Fan Zeng was stunned.
Then he saw Xiang Yu already mounted his warhorse, holding a halberd, and said, "Father, you have treated me well, and I know this in my heart. I hope you will go ahead."
"If I lose this battle, with my father's wisdom, surviving the rest of my life shouldn't be a problem!"
At such a critical moment, Fan Zeng still had some weight in Xiang Yu's heart.
But if Xiang Yu had listened to the advice, why would he have ended up in this place?
But then again, how could the Overlord listen to advice?
This is the Overlord!
"My fellow men, you are all heroes of our Great Chu!"
"Now, those scoundrels from Qin State are taking advantage of our army's unpreparedness and attacking us. What should we do?"
Xiang Yu roared loudly to all the soldiers.
The sound was deafening.
At this moment, many soldiers' originally confused minds immediately calmed down after hearing his voice.
"Fight back!"
"That's right, fight back!"
“…”
Overlord Xiang Yu is the soul of this army.
As long as he is here, even if the morale is crushed, the military spirit will still live on.
Without him, even if the army's morale was high, it would be difficult for it to be a match for the Qin army.
"Our army still has 300,000 elite troops, and a full 100,000 local troops, a total of 400,000 lions!"
"And the Qin army has only about 200,000 to 300,000 men, and they are all old!"
"Today, history books will record that I, Xiang Yu, led you to defeat the Qin army!"
"My fellow men of the Great Chu, follow me..."
"Charge!"
Wait until Xiang Yu finishes his last word.
The Chu army, which had not yet been attacked by the Qin State, quickly recovered and went to meet the Qin army.
At this time, Fan Zeng, who was very obedient to advice, had already left on his warhorse.
After he ran a certain distance, he vaguely heard Xiang Yu say the word "charge into battle" and said with a wry smile:
"The Qin army attacked from behind, and our rear army has been thrown into disarray. Now, the Chu army capable of fighting is no more than 100,000, so how can we have 400,000?"
"My king, my king, if you listen to me today and retreat for the time being, you can gather the remaining troops of my army and perhaps gather 200,000 or 300,000 men. But now..."
After saying this, he continued riding forward.
After running for a while, he suddenly turned his horse's head and looked at the huge crowd of people in the distance. He gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice:
"Well, I will die with you, and this life will not be in vain!"
“Gee! Gee! Gee!”
He ran towards Xiang Yu again.
Now, Fan Zeng is already very old.
Even his hair and beard have turned white.
In ordinary people's lives, an old man like him should have been enjoying his retirement long ago.
But this old man was worried about Xiang Yu and insisted on following him.
Although Fan Zeng was not considered a top-notch strategist, he was definitely among the best. He was many times stronger than people like Fa Zheng who surrendered to Liu Bei.
How could a smart person like him not know that given Xiang Yu's character, in today's turbulent and contentious world, becoming an overlord was already the limit?
Knowing this, he still followed and tried to change his destiny.
This is called knowing that something cannot be done but still doing it.
People say that there are different levels of strategists, including those who plan for themselves, those who plan for others, those who plan for land, and those who plan for the country.
Serving the country is the highest priority.
In fact, it is not.
Those who dare to plan for destiny are the highest level of strategists.
Fan Zeng was such a strategist.
On Yue Fei's side.
Just as he led the Qin army to completely defeat the rear army of Chu.
Seeing Xiang Yu leading his vanguard army to attack, I couldn't help but feel deeply moved.
"Only Your Majesty can compare with Xiang Yu's bravery."
At this point, the Chu army was doomed to defeat.
Knowing you will lose, why do you still want to give it a try?
Why bother?
In fact, to put it bluntly, Fan Zeng and Xiang Yu are fundamentally the same type of people.
They are all people who dare to do things even though they know they are impossible.
Xiang Yu was not a fool, so how could he not know that the country was beyond salvation?
Even if Chu was given another thirty years, it would never be a match for Qin!
Such a simple truth can be understood by people of all nations, so how could Xiang Yu not understand it?
He just didn't bother to understand.
He has reasons to persist.
He is from Chu.
If a country does not have people like Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng who do things knowing that they cannot do so, that would be the greatest tragedy for that country.
If the person is hopeless, find a way to save him, even if it means death, instead of blaming others!
At this time, Yue Fei's son Yue Yun, seeing Xiang Yu's invincible bravery and killing all who stood in his way, also felt the desire to fight. He waved his sledgehammer and said:
