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

Chapter 306 These two bodies can be combined into one, maybe it will make up for everything

The Qinling Mountains run for thousands of miles, dividing the vast Qin Empire into two parts, north and south, from west to east.

There were quite a few Qin people who depended on the mountains for their survival.

this day.

The old Qin people who live near the mountains go hunting in the mountains as usual.

"Little bastard, you have to watch out for me today. When hunting, you must first learn to observe. When drawing the bow, your arms must be steady and you must aim at the prey's vital parts, such as the eyes and neck. The waist is the key and must be coordinated with your arms to keep it steady."

A hunter in his thirties, as soon as he arrived at the foot of the Qinling Mountains, couldn't wait to turn around and tell his eldest son about his hunting experience over the years.

He gestured as he spoke.

He completely failed to notice his eldest son's wide-open eyes, cold sweat, and extremely terrified expression.

"Little bastard, did you listen carefully to me? This is all what your grandfather taught me."

Seeing that his son seemed to be in a trance, the hunter scolded him unhappily.

"Dad, Dad, mountain, this mountain it"

The eldest son, whose face was as pale as frost, pointed his finger forward and spoke tremblingly.

"You bastard, can you still fly away from this mountain? If you can't kill a wild boar today, you can go home and starve. Even if your mother comes to beg me, it won't work."

The hunter was dissatisfied, thinking that the boy was so scared before even entering the mountain, he must have been spoiled by his wife.

"Dad, this mountain is really flying!"

The son yelled, his knees went weak and he fell to the ground.

The hunter immediately looked back.

I saw the Qinling Mountains in front of me, which seemed to have no boundaries to the east and west, floating in the air.

Although it was less than half a meter high, this scene frightened the father and son so much that they collapsed to the ground.

at the same time.

Along the Qinling Mountains, tens of thousands of people witnessed this incredible scene.

Although it is only half a foot above the ground.

But the earth shook and rocks fell, and the mountain king was thrown to the ground.

The top of Zhongnan Mountain at this time.

The majestic national destiny wanders among the rocky cliffs.

Five rotten dragon claws seemed to be about to break out of the ground.

Whoosh, whoosh.
An ominous backlash engulfed Ying Lou, who was gasping for breath.

"Sure enough, no matter Ying Lou or Jin Chan, no one can control this place of national destiny alone!"

Looking at his entire right arm covered by the black line of national destiny, Ying Lou frowned slightly and said to himself.

Two bodies.

A man whose national fortune is the greatest in history, even the combined fortune of the seven kings is not as good as one percent of his.

But unfortunately, the mortal body is simply unable to support the mobilization of such a huge national destiny.

Not to mention the entire Central Plains, at this moment Ying Lou couldn't even raise the Qinling Mountains an inch.

And the other body.

Although he is immortal, no matter if his head is chopped off or he is chopped into pieces, he can be restored to his original state in the blink of an eye.

But unfortunately, he did not have even a trace of the country's destiny, and he was unable to muster even a trace of the military spirit that ordinary soldiers could learn.

"If my two bodies could be combined into one, perhaps everything would be made up, and even the military spirit might be mastered."

After reinserting the jade seal into his chest, Ying Lou lowered his head slightly and looked at the sticky blood plasma hanging on his palm. After calming down for a while, he spoke in a flat tone.

"Heibingtai, return to the palace!"

"After the six kingdoms return to Qin, I will personally tour Zhao, Wei, Han, Qi, Chu, and Tang, the six places of national destiny in the Central Plains."

Leaving the top of Zhongnan Mountain.

Ying Lou just raised his hand slightly, and someone from the Black Ice Platform came over to wipe the blood off it.

the other side.

The war between Qin and Chu north of the Huai River was still in full swing.

The city of Runing was surrounded by Xiang Yu.

Not to mention food and fodder, even a fly couldn't fly in.

Because Jin Chan was in charge, Xiang Yu only launched small-scale sieges every few days and never planned to send out all his forces.

This huge contrast also made Zhongli Mei and others look at him differently.

After all, if he were a former overlord, he would only think about defeating the enemy head-on and would never use this method of siege and food cut-off to win the victory.

Over there in the second city.

Because of the Qin army's retreat.

It has been occupied by the Chu army led by Yu Wei and a dozen generals.

Xiao Luoyang was stationed in the third city, commanding eight Qin generals, Ying Dang, Ying Ji, Zhu Hai, Zhuan Zhu, Wang Ben, Meng Yi, Li Xin, and Zi'an, to fight against it.

time flies.

In the blink of an eye, the autumn wind sweeps away the leaves.

The nearby trees and grass have begun to turn desolate.

The sky is as blue as a gem, but because it is so high it seems a little cold.

A few white clouds as thin as cicada wings, like casually discarded cotton wool, float lonely in the wind.

The sun is no longer as hot as it was in summer, but a little weak.

A dry day.

In the camp of the commander of the Chu army.

"It's not good, it's not good!"

The messenger, who was running out of breath, shouted loudly.

"Drag him down and stick him for thirty!"

Xiang Yu sat high on the chair, supporting his chin with his fingers crossed, and spoke with a slightly raised eyebrow.

Now everything is developing in a favorable direction. Those who disrupt the morale of the army must be punished.

"General, why don't you listen to what it is?"

Zhongli Mei quickly stood up.

Although he could not imagine what important military information would happen at this moment, he still stopped Xiang Yu.

By the way, he also winked at the messenger, asking him to report quickly.

"General, our boats at the ferry were all burned down by the Qin people!"

"what?"

When the generals heard this, their expressions changed drastically.

If all the ships were destroyed, in order to return to Chu, they would have to take a detour of thousands of miles, or even go deep into the heart of the former Korea.

When he thought of this, Zhongli Mei focused his attention and thought about what Jin Chan meant.

After all, that person would never do anything useless.

"General, the Qin army is trying to cut off our retreat!"

"General, please prepare as soon as possible. The Qin people may counterattack in the next few days."

Looking at the people below the stage talking to each other, Xiang Yu's expression never changed from beginning to end.

"Everyone, don't panic!"

"We have come to Runing City to fight the Qin army to the death. Why should we be afraid of having our retreat cut off? The Qin people are doing this just to disrupt the morale of our Chu army. But these little bastards don't know that I value more than just these ten cities!"

Xiang Yu stood up calmly, picked up the Overlord Spear that was stuck in the ground beside him, and shouted loudly.

The voice was loud and clear, reaching the army outside the camp, and its power was as strong as a mountain, as if it could swallow the world, exuding a terrifying domineering aura.

"Hangu, Xianyang, and even every inch of Qin's land, I will lead you all to accomplish this unprecedented hegemony."

"Now, the boat has sunk. You must quickly inform the entire army of this matter. Tell my people of Great Chu that we have no way out. We can only fight to the death, break through Hangu Pass, and capture Xianyang. The passionate men of Chu should use the swords in their hands to achieve unprecedented merits. This is the only way to go!"

Every step Xiang Yu took forward seemed to step on the heartstrings of the people.

"Are you afraid of Qin? Are you afraid of Jin Chan?"

"No fear!" "Okay, Zhongli Mei, Long Qie, Ji Bu, Yu Ziqi, you four have been with me the longest. Today, I will order you four to lead 60,000 soldiers each and take 10,000 heads of Qin people for my Great Chu as a sacrifice. If you can't do it, you will each lead 100 military sticks!"

Xiang Yu knew that if Qin did not have the Golden Cicada, the army would not be so panicked even if the King of Chu died, let alone the burning of the ships.

At this time, no matter what you do, the most important thing is to stabilize the morale of the army first.

"I'll wait for the order!"

Say it.

Zhongli Mei and his men picked up their weapons, walked out of the camp, and prepared to go into battle.

And Xiang Yu also moved outside the tent.

Raise your chin and look at the sun above your head which is not too glaring.

"Jin Chan, after I kill Meng Wu, it will be your turn!"

The red pupils reappeared, spinning back and forth in Xiang Yu's eye sockets.

In the center of the forehead, three black lines were twisted together.

His hair was like iron bars, flying up without wind.

The military spirit that was unconsciously condensed has already broken through to 990,000.

"Brothers, the heads of ten thousand Qin people are not so easy to take!"

"Stop talking nonsense. If you have the time, you might as well kill a few more!"

"General, this is to stabilize our army's morale. We can't kill ten thousand Qin dogs, but we need these one hundred military sticks."

Zhongli Mei and his companions stood in front of the city gate, shouting and cursing while chatting.

Another month has passed.

The weather is getting colder.

There are only five days left of the Cold Clothes Festival.

The Qin army has not taken any action since it burned the Chu ships last time.

This also made Zhongli Mei and Yu Wei a little confused, and they had no idea what Jin Chan was thinking.

"General, our food and fodder can only last until the winter solstice at most. However, based on my observations over the past few days, the smoke from the cooking fires in Ruyang City has decreased significantly. I guess their food and fodder has run out!"

In the tent, the Chu generals gathered together, burning a large cauldron with firewood, and inside the cauldron were two goats and some vegetables.

Even Yu Wei, who had not been seen for many days, returned here.

"Okay, in about a month, when the Qin army's food and grass are exhausted, we will capture the city."

"Yu Wei, you are responsible for cutting off the support of the Qin people's third city. As for Ruyang City, leave it to us."

Xiang Yu reached into the boiling mutton soup in the cauldron, grabbed a goat, and cut it into pieces, distributing them to Yu Wei, Zhongli Mei and others.

"Yu, I always feel that things are not that simple. If Jin Chan knew that the food and grass were insufficient, how could he..."

Seeing that Yu Wei seemed to be hesitant to speak, Xiang Yu interrupted her again.

"Although Jin Chan is brave and can be regarded as the best general in the Central Plains, he is not invincible. He can defeat a million troops alone. Moreover, the foolish order to abandon the second city has doomed him to failure. This time, God bless our Great Chu."

Xiang Yu knew that Yu Wei was a person who was too cunning.

Now the Chu army has no way to retreat, and is waiting for the day when the Qin army runs out of food and supplies.

Moreover, this time, both Qin and Chu have basically put their entire national strength into the battle. No matter who wins, the other will fall from the list of powerful countries, and in serious cases, it may even be destroyed and annexed.

In fact, neither country has any way out.

"Ok, I trust you."

Although Yu Wei said this, she knew Xiang Yu's character well and had already made second-hand preparations.

That was to send a message to the old general Dou Yujiang who was far away at Hangu Pass.

Let them abandon Hangu Pass, purchase ships from South Korea, and be ready to provide support at any time along the Huai River basin.

If the battle north of the Huai River fails, at least Xiang Yu can return to Chu safely.

And at this time in Runing City.

Jin Chan was feasting and drinking with Meng Tian, ​​Meng Wu, Yang Ruihe and Bai Longju.

"If it weren't for Mr. Bai, I'm afraid the Chu army would have discovered that we have sufficient food and grass long ago."

Meng Tian picked up the wine glass and raised it to Bai Longju beside him.

"It's a small matter. To me, it's all a small matter. It's just that stupid boy Xiang Yu who was so blind that he didn't see my ability!"

"Come on, do it!"

Bai Longju was quite generous. He grabbed the jar of wine, clinked glasses with Meng Tian, ​​and then drank it all in one gulp.

These days.

The reason why there was less smoke from cooking fires in Runing City was that every night, Bai Longju took advantage of the cover of darkness to go to Xiao Luoyang to carry the cooked food.

"Master Bai, I want to ask for your permission for something. Is that possible?"

"Tell me, I'm in a good mood today, I agree!"

Bai Longju, who was already getting drunk, agreed without thinking.

"General Jin, our army has sufficient manpower, why do we have to act this way? Even if we fight head-on, we Qin people will not lose!"

Veteran Yang Ruihe was somewhat puzzled by Jin Chan's actions.

In his mind, although the Qin army was smaller in number than the Chu army, the Qin people had been warlike and brave since ancient times, so they still had a great chance of winning this battle.

"General Yang, what our Great Qin wants is not just the land of Chu, but the whole world. The Chu army has more people than us. Even if we win north of the Huai River, we will suffer losses. Who will take over this huge land of Chu? Who will conquer Zhao and Wei?"

Jin Chan explained patiently.

But the reason concerning Xiang Yu was not mentioned.

"I am too shallow!"

Yang Ruihe thought about it and replied with a fist salute.

And the next day.

The gate of Runing City was wide open, and Meng Tian, ​​riding a white dragon horse, led hundreds of thousands of Qin troops and shouted at the Chu camp, asking Xiang Yu to come and fight to the death.

And Xiang Yu had been suppressed for too long.

When he saw that there were Qin people challenging him, he picked up the Overlord Spear and led his army out alone.

This battle.

Meng Tian knew that he was not yet a match for Xiang Yu, so he tried to please the White Dragon Horse last night and asked it to carry him back to the city at the critical moment.

However, the competition with Xiang Yu did help him improve a lot.

Another twenty days later.

The Cold Clothes Festival has passed.

The weather has gradually turned colder.

There was not even a trace of smoke from cooking fires in Runing City.

"Notify the entire army and get ready. The Qin people may open the city for a decisive battle in the next few days!"

Zhongli Mei gave orders to the soldiers below.

Just as the entire Chu army was on standby, ready to fight a decisive battle with the hungry Qin army.

But who knows.

More than thirty days passed.

The winter solstice is here.

The Qin people remained indoors.

"General, we are running low on food and the soldiers are already complaining."

"General, the front line reported that the Qin troops in the third city launched a general attack on General Yu Wei."

"General."

Sitting in the camp, Xiang Yu heard military intelligence that gave him a headache and ears tired every day these days.

Either the food supplies were running out, or Yu Wei's city was under siege.

"Zhongli Mei, were you really right about the Qin army's food supplies that day? It's been more than a month since the Cold Clothes Festival, why haven't the Qin army left the city yet?"

Xiang Yu asked with a frown.
