Zhou Zhang was hit by Lu Bu's full-strength arrow and was seriously injured. He could no longer lift the sword in his hand.
In Ying Yuan's previous life, Zhou Zhang was a leader of a peasant uprising during the late Qin Dynasty.
He once followed the Xiang family and made great contributions.
It can be considered as making a name for himself.
Therefore, he was able to carve out a name for himself during the chaotic era at the end of the Qin Dynasty.
And now, he is about to die here.
As the saying goes, Lü Bu among men and Red Hare among horses.
Lu Bu riding on the Red Hare is invincible.
Although the siege battle had to be fought on foot, without the help of Red Hare, it would affect their combat effectiveness.
but.
He is Lu Bu after all.
With a Fang Tian Hua Ji in one hand, he charged onto the top of the city wall as if there was no one around.
Even Pan Feng was outshined by him.
When both sides were killing the enemy, they were approaching each other without any prior agreement.
When they were only a few steps away, Pan Fengcai said while killing the enemy, "General Lu, I have killed sixty enemies. I wonder how many you have killed?"
Hearing this, Lu Bu said complacently, "I have killed over a hundred enemies!"
This number shocked Pan Feng.
They are all experienced warriors, so they have a general understanding of each other's strength.
Pan Feng thought that he was no match for Lu Bu.
Fortunately, this peerless warrior is his colleague, not his enemy.
Otherwise, when they meet on the battlefield, they will inevitably feel timid.
Pan Feng and Zhao Yun knew each other, and the former believed that in order to defeat Lu Bu on horseback, at least the two of them would need to work together.
"Zhou Zhang, give me your life!"
Just as the two were competing with each other to see who had killed more enemies, Zhang He, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, noticed Zhou Zhang who was seriously injured.
Afterwards, he decisively took the initiative to kill the enemy while he was ill.
The results are obvious.
Zhou Zhang was killed by Zhang He.
In this battle, the Qin army won a great victory.
If the Chu army had focused on defending the city, the Qin army would have had no chance today.
Unfortunately, most of their troops had already withdrawn from Hangu Pass.
At this point, the first pass of the Qin State, which had been captured by the Chu State for several months, returned to the hands of the Qin State again.
"The traitor general Zhou Zhang has been executed. The rest will surrender and be spared!"
Zhang He roared.
All the Qin army soldiers were immediately inspired and roared:
"Those who surrender will not be killed!"
"Those who surrender will not be killed!"
“…”
......
Hangu Pass was recaptured.
The four provincial governors were also implementing their plan to encircle the fleeing Chu army.
As for Cao Cao, he only slowly entered the city gate after the enemy troops surrendered one after another.
Led by the Chu army soldiers, Cao Cao came to the burial place of Xiang Yan.
Cao Ren sighed beside him, "A great general of his time has met such a fate. Even his tomb has been treated so hastily."
Hearing this, Cao Cao said sternly, "This is our fate. On the battlefield, no matter our status, having a place to rest after death is enough."
He waved his hand, summoned several generals, and said in a deep voice: "Dig the grave, take out Marshal Xiang's body intact, and give him a proper burial.
Remember to put in plenty of gold, silver, and jade, and have two coffins, and invite a few magicians to come."
"promise!"
The generals retreated upon hearing the sound.
Go and take care of this matter.
Cao Ren bowed and said, "Marshal, you are kind-hearted. I admire you."
Cao Cao shook his head and laughed, "I'm not a kindhearted general, I just can't bear to see such a famous general end up living here."
After a pause, he looked in the direction where the Xiang army was fleeing and muttered, "I wonder what the battle situation is like there."
......
at the same time.
The three Xiang Chao brothers were leading a large army to evacuate from the Qie River towards Yiyang.
Passing near Wangwu Mountains.
Xiang Liang rode up to him and whispered:
"Wangwu Mountain is adjacent to Taihang Mountain in the east, Zhongtiao Mountain in the west, Taiyue Mountain in the north, and the Yellow River in the south. Legend has it that Emperor Xuanyuan once performed a Fengshan ceremony here."
Xiang Bo said, "If the enemy has set an ambush here, I'm afraid our army will never escape. Unfortunately, the enemy is focused on attacking Hangu Pass. Once they take it, they won't be able to catch up with us."
Wangwu Mountain has a dangerous terrain and is surrounded by dangers on all sides.
If the army is trapped here, there will be no chance of escape.
However, in the eyes of the three brothers, the probability of this happening is almost zero.
"Once we cross Wangwu Mountain, we will be safe."
Xiang Chao looked back in the direction of Hangu Pass, gritted his teeth, and continued to order the army forward.
Unexpectedly, when they arrived near Wangwu Mountain Range, they saw flags waving in the forest.
Xiang Liang was shocked and blurted out subconsciously: "That's... the Qin army? Impossible! How could they suddenly come here?"
Xiang Chao frowned deeply, without giving it time to think, and shouted loudly: "All troops, alert! Alert!"
The next moment.
Countless arrows flew from the mountains and forests in all directions and shot at the Chu army.
For a moment, groups of Chu soldiers fell to the ground.
Huge rocks and trees also rolled down from the top of the mountain.
Many Chu soldiers were knocked down.
"Brother, how come the Qin army is catching up so quickly?"
Xiang Liang was surprised.
Even without thinking, they knew that they were ambushed.
Xiang Chao shouted sternly: "All soldiers, listen to my orders, follow me and charge forward, kill!"
At such a critical moment, as the commander-in-chief, he naturally could not hesitate.
