I am already immortal, why should I ascend to become an immortal?

Chapter 245 Jin Chan and others meet Ying Lou; Xiao Luoyang questions Xiang Yu
"Let us kill these Qi people, why doesn't Jin Chan do it himself?"

Xiang Yu said angrily.

"To destroy Qi, I'm afraid that after Tian Gao's death, when Qi's million reinforcements arrived at Hangu Pass, Qin's goal has changed."

Zhongli Mei was not wrong in this regard.

"General, don't hesitate. The plague hasn't completely dissipated yet. If we take action now, we can still say that it was the spread of the plague, and we won't be criticized by the world."

Seeing that Xiang Yu still had concerns, Zhongli Mei simply began to persuade him.

But it is indeed as he said, because the sudden outbreak of the plague in Queqiaotian can be used as an excuse to inform the world in the future.

"General."

Just when Zhongli Mei was about to speak up again and propose to lead his troops out of the camp to kill the one million Qi troops and bear the eternal infamy for Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu suddenly stretched out his right hand and interrupted him.

"Give the order, after the meal, all the soldiers will cover their mouths and noses and follow me to annihilate the Qi army."

Xiang Yu was just stubborn, but he also knew that he had no choice at this point.

But as the commander-in-chief of the State of Chu, how could he let his subordinates bear the infamy of killing millions of people?

"As ordered!"

At this time in the Qi army camp.

There were broken and rotten corpses everywhere, the stench was overwhelming, and flies were buzzing everywhere.

Over the past few days, at least 500,000 people in Qi died because of Queqiaotian.

Of the remaining nearly one million people, 40% are still hovering between life and death.

However, without medicine and food, these 40% of people will most likely not survive.

Even if the remaining 60% of people managed to survive, there was no life in their eyes. They were exhausted both physically and mentally and were all quietly waiting to die.

"Food, the Qin State is distributing food!"

Someone yelled.

I saw bags of grains, beans and food being transported in from afar.

Get the pot off the stove.

Wisps of smoke rose from the firewood.

After a few sticks of incense, all the surviving people of Qi ate the long-lost grain meal.

Even the seriously ill soldiers had a sip of hot soup.

Although it was just an ordinary meal, the feeling of being saved from a desperate situation made most people cry with excitement.

"Is the war over?"

"probably!"

"Can we go home now?"

"It might work!"

"I miss my wife and baby."

"I miss my mom, too."

suddenly.

Whoosh.

A silver light fell from the sky.

The two old soldiers, who were still immersed in family happiness, were pierced through the head by flying arrows.

Followed by.

Arrows flew across the sky and shot into the crowd one after another, causing chaos.

The kicked-together firewood set fire to the nearby tents, and the unfinished bean and rice soup spilled on the ground, emitting wisps of white hot steam.

The people around me fell one after another.

"You son of a bitch Qin people, I'm going to fight them!"

"No, it seems that he is not from Qin. It is... Xiang Yu, a Chu person!"

After a round of volleys from the archers.

Only a distance is seen.

Xiang Yu, dressed in silver armor and holding a spear, rushed to the front, and behind him was the mighty Chu army.

Although the sackcloth covered half of his face, the murderous look in his eyes was enough to make people shudder even from a hundred meters away.

"kill!"

With one swipe of the gun, several heads fell to the ground.

The prepared Chu army reaped the lives of the Qi people like autumn wind sweeping away leaves.

The people of Qi were dumbfounded.

Although there have been some conflicts between the two countries before, there is no reason to kill each other so ruthlessly.

The Qi people realized the situation later and only picked up the weapons around them after the first round of attack by the Chu people.

There were shouting and screaming inside Hangu Pass in an instant.

The sound of steel clashing with swords, the interweaving sounds of wailing and anger.

Even the Tang army stationed far away could hear it clearly.

It was located fifty miles east of the Yinglou convoy, on a mound near Hangu Pass.

It was the first time that Xiao Luoyang saw the cruelty of war so directly. He clenched his fists and placed them at the sides of his legs. Although his whole body could not help but tremble slightly, his eyes were still fixed on the front.

"Luoyang, the battle at Hangu Pass is over. Tomorrow you will negotiate with the Chu army on my behalf!"

Li Si suddenly spoke from the side.

“Students know!”

Two smart people don't need to ask questions back and forth, they can understand everything just through a simple conversation.

"The Qin State is fortunate to have such a King of Qin. It seems that within ten years, he will be able to unify the Central Plains and accomplish a great cause for the ages. Luoyang, you and I are fortunate to have witnessed history with our own eyes, and it is worth our lives in this world."

Li Si stroked the one-foot beard on his chin and muttered to himself.

However, Li Si was a student of the Legalists, and even little Luoyang was the first time to hear his teacher say such words, so he couldn't help but look back with some curiosity.

The sun gradually moves from midday to dusk.

This almost one-sided massacre has come to an end.

Inside the pass, there were mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Even in hell filled with evil spirits, there probably wouldn't be so many corpses.

The Chu people had become numb from killing, and even though the blades were curled and broken, they still swung them again and again.

The Qi people on the other side had already given up struggling.

It only took the last 20,000 or 20,000 surviving Qi people just over half a day to go from initial resistance to subsequent despair.

At this moment, they all sat on the ground with their legs crossed, raised their heads, watched the last sunset, chanted the Qi folk song, and waited quietly for the long knife to cut off their heads.

"That's it!"

At the gate of Hangu Pass.

Jin Chan was seen leading several teams of black-armored Qin troops, holding black water dragon flags and marching in neat steps from outside the pass into the inside of the pass again.

"Xiang Yu, take your Chu people back to the camp. Tomorrow you will meet the King of Qin and the Qin ministers will discuss the matter with you in detail."

After Jin Chan finished speaking, he waved his hand and ordered the Qin army behind him to block the Chu people and the Qi people.

Seeing this scene, Xiang Yu, whose silver armor had turned red and was covered with minced meat, instantly opened his eyes and stared at Jin Chan motionlessly.

Zhongli Mei on the side was so frightened that he dared not say a word, for fear of angering Xiang Yu and making all his efforts go to waste.

"It's yours!"

Xiang Yu did not take any action, but turned around and walked towards the direction of the Chu camp after saying this.

at the same time.

About a mile west of Guannei, a half-ruined tower emerged from the ground.

"Boss, what should they do?"

Looking at the Qi man who was still sitting there with lifeless eyes, Zi'an asked Jin Chan.

"Tell them they can go home!"

After all, someone needs to convey this massacre to the King of Qi, and these survivors are the best choice.

After hearing that they could go home, the people of Qi who were lucky enough to be alive were stunned at first, then immediately covered their faces and burst into tears.

In this battle, Qi suffered heavy losses, far more serious than when Bai Qi buried Zhao alive.

Several generals in the army died one after another, and only about 20,000 were left out of more than 1.6 million people.

After packing their bags, the Qi people walked out of the pass, supporting each other, without even looking back.

Although everyone was injured, there was no hesitation in their steps.

A few hours later, it was already dark.

"Sir, you guessed it all right. The Qin army has re-entered the pass. The three kingdoms' coalition forces were defeated in the Battle of Hangu Pass. Only one tenth of the Qi army survived. Almost all of them were killed in the battle."

A few hundred kilometers away from Hangu Pass, a middle-aged man who looked elegant was roasting dinner for himself and his men by a campfire.

Around him were several young men and women.

"Wrong, it wasn't the Three Kingdoms that attacked Qin, it was Qi and Chu that attacked Qin!"

The man turned the wooden stick in his hand, took a look at the pheasant that was sizzling with oil, and thought that it might not be cooked through yet, so he continued to roast it.

He didn't seem surprised at all at what his men said, as if everything was expected.

"Sir, you are really smart, but I don't understand, how do you know that Tang Guo has been secretly cooperating with Qin Gou for a long time?"

A young man in white, who looked only fifteen or sixteen years old, closed the book in his hand and looked over in confusion.

"Yeah, Boss, how did you know that?"

On the other side, the playful girl sitting on the log kept her eyes on the pheasant on the fire, but she was also equally curious in her heart.

"I guessed that when the old king of Tang died in a civil war, the new king did not stabilize the country first, but instead sent a large-scale army to Hangu Pass. This is illogical."

"Although Lincheng was captured by Wang Jian and his son, Qin Qiong was a very capable person. He could not take back such an important place. Combining these two points, it is not difficult to guess that the Tang State must have other purposes for sending troops to Hangu this time."

It was a matter of 70% guessing and 30% guessing, but Li Mu didn't expect that he would actually guess it right.

"Sir, I heard that the reason why Qin Gou was able to win this time was all thanks to the sudden appearance of a guy called Jin Chan. I heard that this guy not only defeated Li Cunxiao and Xiang Yu, but also blocked Lian Po's final attack. Sir, do you think it's useful?"

A masked young man in black wiped his neck with his hand and asked Li Mu with cold eyes.

"Haha, I may not even be a match for General Jinchan. Forget it. Just practice martial arts and strive to be able to fight in battle as soon as possible!"

After Li Mu distributed the roasted pheasant to everyone, he took out a piece of dry food from his cloth bag and started to eat it.

"Boss, when are we going back to Zhao? There is nothing in this desolate mountain and wilderness. It's so boring!"

The girl complained somewhat dissatisfiedly.

"Don't worry. Although the battle of Hangu is a foregone conclusion, this good show may not be over yet."

The night wind suddenly became violent, and dark clouds covered the full moon in the sky.

Li Mu looked up and saw a meaningful smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Go tell the people of Han and Wei that the King of Qin has not yet shown up. If you want to continue watching the fun, don't leave in a hurry. Something unexpected may happen!"

the next day.

Inside Hangu Pass.

Although the Qin army cleaned up for a whole night, they still had not moved all the piles of corpses from the Qi people.

The stench was still so bad that it was impossible to open one's eyes.

The mass grave outside the Great Wall had already been filled up. After careful consideration, Li Xin ordered his men to pour kerosene on the remaining bodies and burn them.

The Si hour has just passed.

Didn't even eat.

Jin Chan was seen leading the Qin generals, Li Cunxiao and Xiang Yu, riding their horses and galloping towards the camp of Yinglou in the distance.

"Two generals, please put down your weapons and follow me into the tent to meet the King of Qin."

Zhao Gao, who had been waiting for a long time, saluted to Jin Chan and others, and then spoke to Xiang Yu and Li Cunxiao.

"Humph!"

Xiang Yu just glared, and the aura bursting out from his body made the eunuch Zhao Gao's legs go weak instantly, and he collapsed directly to the ground.

If Li Cunxiao hadn't picked it up with his toes, Zhao Gao would have been in a big embarrassment.

"Brother Xiang, why bother? It is reasonable for foreign ministers like me to leave our weapons behind when we meet the King of Qin."

Say it.

Li Cunxiao took the lead and threw the sword at his waist aside.

Although Xiang Yu was dissatisfied, he also knew that the eunuch in front of him was also following the rules.

After a brief pause, Xiang slammed the Overlord Spear in his hand directly into the ground.

"Generals, please follow me in."

Zhao Gao patted his clothes, still with that familiar smile on his face.

As soon as I stepped into the King of Qin’s tent.

An atmosphere of solemnity and majesty instantly overwhelmed me.

The tent was tall and spacious, supported by thick black tent cloth, and had an orderly layout.

Bronze candlesticks stood nearby.

Although it is not as big as the Qilin Hall in the Afang Palace, it is also extremely spacious, like a temporary palace.

Inside the account.

The black-armored Qin army stood on both sides, holding spears and with stern eyes. They were obviously the elite among the elite of the Qin army.

A long carpet extends from the curtain all the way inside.

And at the rear.

There are several desks on each side.

Near the throne were Li Si in black official uniform and Xiao Luoyang in a white skirt, one in front and one behind.

As for the black water dragon throne in the center, Ying Lou was sitting on it, his black dragon robe shining brightly under the light of the bronze lamp.

The young face was as firm as a knife, with sword-like eyebrows slanting into the temples and eyes deep and sharp, as if he could see through everything.

Although his body was a little thin, there was no sign of sickness. His slightly raised chin gave him an imposing manner, showing the domineering aura of a king.

"Is this the King of Qin?"

Xiang Yu and Li Cunxiao sighed in their hearts at the same time.

Contrary to rumors, the young King of Qin did not look like a sickly person who might die at any time.

After everyone entered the tent.

Ying Lou, who was sitting on the dragon throne, raised his head slightly, glanced around, and then a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but at the same time, there was also some unquestionable confidence.

"Meet the king!"

"I've met King Qin!"

After bowing.

Zhao Gao then took Jin Chan, Li Xin, Zi'an, Mu Xuanzi, Bai Macuo and Li Cunxiao and sat in their respective seats.

Only Xiang Yu stood there and did not move.

"General Xiang, since you are here to negotiate, why don't you take a seat?"

As soon as Ying Lou opened his mouth, his deep and magnetic voice startled Xiang Yu subconsciously. He had never had this feeling even when he met the King of Chu.

"The King of Chu has agreed to cede the three cities of Lin, Le and Liang to Qin. I have already put Denglou inside the pass. After informing you, I plan to lead the army back to Chu today. As for the food in Qin, I am not used to it."

Looking at the meals that the palace maids and eunuchs brought one after another, Xiang Yu said expressionlessly.

"General Xiang, you are the one who can decide the peace talks with the defeated country!"

"If you Chu army can return whenever you want, why wait until now?"

Xiao Luoyang nodded to Ying Lou, then stood up and walked with lotus steps to the middle of the tent.

His tone was neither humble nor arrogant, and his back was as straight as a green bamboo.

Although the voice is soft, every word is precious.

　I saw someone asked in the previous chapter, if Yidi's Partridge Sky was so powerful, why not just throw it directly into the Chu army camp.

　　This has actually been explained in the article.

　　Tian Dan wanted to threaten the Chu army and negotiate peace with the Qin State.

　　If all the Chu troops were killed, it would be like losing all the bargaining chips.

　　Tian Dan did that just to kill Xiang Yu and a group of Chu generals, then use the advantage of military strength to control the Chu army, and then negotiate peace with the Qin State.
