Battle for hegemony at the end of the Qin Dynasty in the military god system

Chapter 295 sees an ambush
With a heavy heart, Liu Bang and the others fled towards the south for tens of miles, and when they came to a fork in the road, they found that there were no traces of the pursuers, and they were completely relieved.

"My lord, this is a fork in the road. Which one should we choose?" Chen Ping's voice came from behind Liu Bang. Liu Bang didn't look back. No need to remind him, he could see that it was a fork in the road.Facing this fork in the road, Liu Bang also hesitated, because Liu Bang knew very well that even if he escaped such a long way, it was still not safe, and he was still within the range of the enemy's control. He didn't know when the pursuers would arrive.

"We want to go south, which way is closer?" Liu Bang, who had been pondering for a long time, asked calmly.

Zhang Liang, who had studied abroad, clasped his hands and replied, "If it's the closest, the mountain road is the closest, but that place is so inaccessible, the road is probably not easy to walk. If you walk along this straight road, you will be the official building built by the Qin State. If we choose this road, the time we spend will not be slower than walking the mountain road.”

"I'm afraid there are quite a few pedestrians on the official road! No! The goal is too big, let's take the mountain road." Liu Bang decided vigorously, and Zhang Liang and Chen Ping also agreed. What they lack most now is not time but strength. He will be targeted by the Qin army soon, and whether he can reach his destination safely is still a question.

Now that the decision was made, Liu Bang and the others did not hesitate anymore, and rode their horses towards the mountain road.

The mountain road was not so easy to walk, and many places simply could not allow the passage of war horses. Liu Bang and others had no choice but to abandon their mounts and go on foot.

When he was about to walk out of the mountain path, Liu Bang laughed and said, "If we get out of this valley, even if we have completely got rid of the enemy, even if the Qin army has wings, they will not be able to catch up with us."

After going through a long journey, everyone was exhausted, but the Lord's words reached everyone's hearts. Thinking of being able to escape with their lives, everyone immediately felt that the hardships of this journey were worth it.

Liu Bang rolled up his sleeves and wiped the sweat from his forehead, shook the dust off his body, and led the crowd towards Taniguchi.

When he was about to reach Taniguchi, what Liu Bang saw was not the endless plain, but the rain of arrows that he never wanted to see.

"Withdraw! Quickly withdraw!" Liu Bang shouted anxiously.

Zhang Liang and the others were also heartbroken, and quickly turned around and ran towards the valley.A sharp arrow seemed to have eyes, chasing Liu Bang and others.

With a piece of dog's tail hanging from the corner of Xie Feng's mouth, he smacked his lips and said disdainfully: "I have been guarding here for many days just to catch you mice, if you let you slip away again, how can the lord assign me tasks in the future. "Xie Feng waved his hand and ordered the mountain infantry to enter the mountain to arrest people.

"Catch me, don't let them escape." Xie Feng spat out the dog's tail grass on his mouth, pulled out his saber, and shouted with a ferocious expression.

Liu Bang and the others tried their best to flee towards the valley. Many soldiers, because of their haste to escape, tripped over the rocks on the mountain road and fell to the ground.

Xie Feng, who followed with strides, walked up to the captured soldier of Liu Bang, and said coldly, "Kill him, don't take him prisoner!" After finishing speaking, he chased towards the depths of the valley without looking back.

With Xie Feng's order, these soldiers who were unfortunately captured had a tragic ending.After being captured by the soldiers of Liangshan Army, they just wanted to surrender, but they didn't know that the opponent didn't give a chance at all, and the shining sword turned into the scythe of death, harvesting their lives.Some people who were struggling saw the fate of their comrades-in-arms, and they were horrified, and they made up their minds not to surrender.Even if you are captured by the enemy, you must hold your head up and resist.

Xie Feng, who wanted to chase and kill Liu Bang wholeheartedly, didn't think too much about it. In his opinion, these hundred and ten deserters couldn't escape from his palm at all.He led his subordinates into the mountains to search for traces of Liu Bang and others. Although the strength was far superior to the opponent, but because the time of action was too early, Liu Bang and others had the opportunity to escape.Now there are only dozens of people who can catch up, but the key figures, Liu Bang, Zhang Liang and others are nowhere to be seen.

Looking at the dense forest, Xie Feng stomped his feet angrily and cursed: "These mice run really fast, they disappeared in the blink of an eye."

Xie Feng's deputy general whispered in his ear: "General, this kind of search is not an option, such a dense forest, even if all of us are sent in, it is difficult to find traces of more than ten people, and there must be poison in the dense forest, hidden Murderous intent, I’m afraid it’s a mistake to enter rashly, we’d better take back the manpower and make another plan.”

The deputy general's statement was indeed true, but after staying here for many days, he only killed a few kittens and puppies, but the key person let him escape, and it would be difficult to explain to General Han Xin when he returned.Xie Feng hesitated for a while, then sighed and shouted into the depths of the forest: "Don't let me catch you, otherwise I will skin you and cramp you, and cut you into pieces with a thousand cuts." He told the lieutenant general: "Take the brothers. Call everyone back! Let’s withdraw our troops and return, and I will take care of all the problems.”

The deputy general was extremely happy. He was not happy for Liu Bang and others, but because he was a local and had heard rumors about this mountain forest.The reason why no one wants to visit this mountain forest is because there are many tigers, leopards, apes and snakes in the forest, and there are a lot of poisons in the depths. Many people who travel have accidentally died in the mountain.So when Xie Feng received the mission to ambush in the mountains and forests, the deputy general advised Xie Feng to guard the exit of the valley, because if the opponent wanted to cross the valley, they would have to pass through here.This was also the reason why Xie Feng did not ambush in the valley. Of course, it was also the reason why Xie Feng recalled his soldiers and gave up the pursuit.

There were not many left of Liu Bang's remnants who entered the dense forest. Many soldiers were either captured and killed or lost in the forest. Only a few dozen people could still follow Liu Bang.Looking at the soldiers around him, Liu Bang felt a burst of sadness in his heart, and said to the left and right in a low voice: "I blame Liu Bang for my incompetence! You have caused you to follow me to take risks many times."

When everyone heard Liu Bang's self-blame, they felt a cloud of sadness in their hearts.The lord is in a dangerous situation, doesn't that justify his dereliction of duty as a subordinate?In other words, they are really incompetent as subordinates.

"Lord, stop talking. We will follow you no matter life or death. As long as you don't give up, we will never back down." Chen Ping replied loudly.

Tears were shining in Liu Bang's eyes, he clenched his fists tightly and said nothing for a long time.

The sun shines through the woods and falls on the weedy woodland. Liu Bang looked at the spots of white light on the ground and said leisurely: "Such a dense forest is a good place to hide."

Zhang Liang replied with a smile: "It's not bad, the opponent won't go deep into the pursuit at all, we can rest here for a while, then we can return to the valley and continue our journey."

Liu Bang looked at Zhang Liang in surprise and asked in a deep voice: "Why is Zifang so determined?"

"I'm guessing, my lord, don't you think ambushes are more effective in the woods on both sides of the mountain road? The army on the opposite side is only guarding the valley exit, but not on both sides of the mountain road. Doesn't this explain a problem?"

Both Liu Bang and Chen Ping nodded. In this way, the other party would not chase into the forest at all, so Zhang Liang's deduction is quite possible.

"Okay, just listen to Zifang. Let's take a break and go down the mountain to have a look." Liu Bang is also a decisive person. He doesn't like this dangerous mountain forest, because when walking on the mountain road, some people are bitten by some poisonous insects. Injured, poisoned and died.
