The allied army, which was physically and mentally exhausted, rested for a whole day, which also gave the Chu army a day's respite; The two sides soon engaged in another confrontation, and the Chu army retreated again, eventually retreating to the area of Baiju.

Baiju is named after the cypress mountain towering and the water surrounding, and it is the west gate of Dabie Mountain. The Chu army repeatedly entered Dabie Shandong to conquer Wu, but it was never blocked by the enemy from home to the door.

The Chu army was still on the defensive, hoping to drag out the battle until the day when Zuo Sima rushed to reinforce it, but the coalition forces would definitely not drag the war on. Although not all of the Chu troops had lost confidence, Nangwa's mental state had completely collapsed. The night before the battle, Emperor Shi came to see Nangwa, but saw him sitting with his head drooped, and his reaction was extremely slow; It seems that even breathing is very difficult, and from time to time I exhale with difficulty.

Shi Huang said: "I'll tell Ling Yin that Wu Chenghei has taken refuge in Helu. He has long been bought by Wu Guoren, and we have all been deceived by him, but I am also very responsible. The soldiers who delivered the letter to Zuo Sima were expected to return in three days, and Zuo Sima's army would take at least ten days. But we only have a day or two left, and although our army will be defeated, we must fight to the end. If Yin dies in battle tomorrow, all sins will be forgiven by the king. ”

Nanwa looked up, a look of surprise on her face.

The state of Chu is still the most powerful country in the world today, and he is still the most powerful person in the world. In his heart, he is the master who can call the wind and rain and has the power to decide the life and death of others, and he never considered that he would also be cornered one day.

He subconsciously blurted out, "Why should I die?" ”

Emperor Shi's heart was filled with resentment, and he felt great shame for Yin's cowardice and selfishness, and felt guilty for his own narrow-mindedness, which only considered the interests of Nangwa.

Emperor Shi said loudly: "King Xianwu and King Wen died in the army, and the first doctor Qu Fang (Mo Ao, the crown prince of Chuwu) and Cheng Dechen (Ling Yin Ziyu) hanged themselves in Yegu, so what could Yin not die?" The first king and the first doctor have always been remembered by the people. If Ling Yin Zhan dies in Baiju, he will be greatly praised by the Chu people, and his descendants will be prosperous, otherwise he will be convicted and flee, and the family will be defeated. Where to go, please Ling Yin think about it. ”

After Shi Huang finished speaking, he brushed his sleeves and left, leaving Nangwa alone in the corner and messy. The time had entered midnight, he suddenly stood up, faced Chu Guo, clenched his fists, made up his mind, and resolutely said: "I will never die!" ”

Early the next morning, the army was not assembled, and it seemed that there would be no fighting in the morning. The husband hurriedly approached him and begged him to attack immediately and not to give the enemy a chance to repair.

He Lu said: "This is the last battle against the enemy's soldiers, and the widow has to carefully study the battle plan." ”

The husband said: "The king studied, and the enemy studied; By the time the king finds the enemy's weakness and makes a plan, they will make up for it! Isn't it self-defeating to attack again according to the original plan? It is better to take advantage of the fact that both sides have not settled down and launch an attack. ”

He Lu still decided to fight again the next day, and he sent someone to write a war letter. He was afraid that the Chu army would avoid the war, so he wrote extremely ridiculous and humiliating words in the war book.

The war letter of the Emperor worked, and Nangwa agreed to a decisive battle in Japan because of insanity or for some reason.

The next day was the 18th day of the 11th month of the lunar calendar, and the morning was windless, cold and foggy, frost on the blades of grass, and the sun faded into a yellow shadow.

The two armies began to line up, and in a short time the fog cleared slightly, and each side could barely see each other. Fu Ji pleaded to He Lu: "The enemy army is still superior in numbers, but Nangwa has no benevolence, if he concentrates his forces to attack the Chinese army first, his left and right will inevitably escape, and then our army will all press, and the Chu army will be defeated!" ”

He Lu did not agree to this tactic, because the Chu army had fought very bravely and tenaciously in the previous three battles, and they were all fought under the poor command of the commander, and the result did not collapse, which is really surprising. Now that the two armies are facing each other head-to-head, ordinary tactics have lost their meaning, and they are afraid of the enemy's bravery and do not dare to take risky actions.

The husband returned to the left flank and shouted angrily to his subordinates: "The proverb says: 'Do what is right, do not wait for the king's order.'" I'm going to put that saying into practice now! You all have to attack the Chinese army with me, and you must catch the old thief of Nangwa! As long as I can win the victory, I will not regret dying today! After that, he beat the drum desperately, and led the five thousand athletes under his command to shout loudly and rushed straight to the central army of Chu State.

This tactic was a great surprise to both sides, and the sac stood on the chariot dumbfounded, his nerves paralyzed, and he forgot to beat the war drum. The sergeant next to him waved his hand and stomped his feet urgently, but he just didn't move. At this critical moment, the right side of Nangwa's car grabbed the drumstick and slammed the war drums, and the Chu army formed a dense defensive formation and began to advance slowly.

The husband adopted a deadly style of fighting, like a sharp axe slashing into layers of tiles, and breaking through the defense line with a single charge; The nervous system of Nanwa finally collapsed at the moment of the confrontation between the two armies, and he trembled and demanded to evacuate the place as soon as possible. Yu Rong withdrew from the battle group in a car, and then fled in the direction of Shi Huang's army with the Liangguang Guards (thirty chariots and corresponding infantry).

But Nangwa did not go to find Emperor Shi, but asked to continue to flee north. Father Yu Rong Heng stopped the car and said, "The chariot of the Chu State is to face the enemy, not to flee for your life!" You're safe, go down! We're going back to fighting! ”

Enraged, he drew his sword and threatened the royal with his usual ferocious gaze. But Che Youzi Ran put Ge against his neck: "Nangwa, didn't you hear Father Heng's order?" ”

Nangwa looked left and right, and saw that the eyes of the sergeants were shining with a fierce light, as if he was when he learned that Wuchenghei had rebelled and defected to the enemy. He let go of his sword, slowly retreated from his chariot, and fled on foot towards the north. The sergeants spat on his back, then turned back to continue the battle.

Father Heng handed over the Liangguang Guards to Emperor Shi, and Emperor Shi asked, "Where is Lord Ling Yin?" Father Heng replied, "Nangwa is dead." Shi Huang nodded and said, "That's good." ”

Emperor Shi rode on the chariot of Nangwa, and at this time, the main force of Helu was suppressed, the Chinese army had fallen, and the two wings began to retreat. Emperor Shi knew that the general trend was gone, and all he could do was to attract as many enemy troops as possible and create more opportunities for his comrades to escape. He handed over command to his deputy, and then rushed to a prominent position with the guards, exposing himself to the tiger and wolf division. He Lu was worried that he couldn't find the bagwa, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw the banner of the bagwa, and waved his sword and shouted: "Repeat the order of the widow: those who get the bagtile will be rewarded with one county, and those who get the guards of Liangguang will be rewarded with ten slaves!" ”
