Han Feng drew his spear mid-air and unleashed another fierce strike, slashing straight down.
Seeing this, the Chu army commander had no choice but to grit his teeth and raise his spear to block again.
however.
This time.
He could no longer withstand Han Feng's fierce slash.
Boom~
Han Feng's strength was immense. The Chu army commander felt a tremendous force and was instantly sent flying backward.
Han Feng seized the opportunity to pursue, spurring his horse forward.
puff~
The spear, as swift as a dragon, pierced straight through the chest of the Chu army's commander-in-chief, much to his horror.
Then, it pierced through his chest!
"what!"
The Chu army commander let out a scream.
Immediately afterwards, it crashed straight down to the ground.
Boom~
The Chu army's commander-in-chief crashed heavily to the ground and died instantly.
His eyes were wide open, and he died with his eyes open in disbelief.
The death of the Chu army's commander-in-chief immediately caused the morale of the Chu army to plummet.
They were already at a disadvantage, and now that they had lost their commander, they immediately fell into chaos.
"kill!"
Han Feng picked up the corpse of the Chu army's commander and slammed it down on the Chu army.
then.
He spurred his horse forward and led Wang Tieqiang and his men in another charge.
Under their onslaught, the leaderless Chu army completely collapsed, routed, abandoned their armor and weapons, and fled in all directions.
The Chu army suffered a crushing defeat!
Han Feng led Wang Tieqiang and his men, pursuing them directly into the territory of the Chu Kingdom.
Blood flowed like a river and corpses were everywhere.
They pursued them relentlessly until they reached the walls of a border city of Chu, where they finally stopped.
"Master, shall we attack the city?"
Wang Tieqiang's eyes flashed with a sharp glint.
As long as Han Feng nodded, he would immediately lead his army to attack the city.
Han Feng looked at the Chu city, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack, with its gates tightly closed, and the Chu army standing ready on the city walls, and shook his head.
"The enemy was prepared. If we launch a full-scale attack, the casualties will be too great. We have already achieved our objective, and there is no need to continue the siege."
"We'll come back for this city later."
Han Feng's expression was cold, and his tone was firm.
This battle is a great victory!
Not only did they kill the Chu army's commander-in-chief, but they also killed several other Chu generals and beheaded 50,000 Chu soldiers.
One hundred thousand Chu troops attacked Xiangyang City. After a prolonged siege, they lost more than forty thousand men, and Han Feng killed more than fifty thousand of them. In the end, less than ten thousand escaped alive.
The State of Chu will surely be severely weakened, and will definitely not send troops to attack the State of Han in the short term.
Han Feng was confident that he could conquer the Chu city in one fell swoop, but the price he would have to pay would certainly be high.
This is not a wise move.
Furthermore, if we capture the area, we will have no troops to garrison it, which would only tie us down.
Therefore, Han Feng is even less likely to choose to attack.
Now, the pursuit of the Chu army to this point is enough to intimidate the Chu people.
There was absolutely no need to do anything unnecessary or add unnecessary details.
"It's the master!"
Wang Tieqiang nodded in response.
"go!"
Han Feng turned his horse around and rode back.
Seeing this, Wang Tieqiang and the others turned their horses around and followed.
······
early morning.
Han Feng's figure appeared outside Xiangyang City.
At this moment.
Inside and outside Xiangyang City, corpses littered the ground, blood flowed like rivers, and all was deathly silent.
There were only a few dozen people scattered on the city wall.
These dozens of men were Chen Yong's surviving guards.
Upon seeing Han Feng and his group, the guards sprang into action.
They were unsure whether the newcomers were friend or foe.
Then, figures surged on the city wall, and hundreds of people in armor appeared, but their steps were chaotic and disorderly.
Han Feng watched all of this with a blank expression.
The people who appeared later were clearly not regular soldiers.
Han Feng guessed that they were residents of the city.
And this time.
On the city wall, someone shouted loudly, "Who goes there?"
· ······Request flowers·· ·
Upon hearing this, Wang Tieqiang spurred his horse forward and shouted, "Why don't you all open the city gates at once and welcome my lord!"
Those on the city wall, upon recognizing Wang Tieqiang, knew that the newcomer was an ally.
During the day, they had witnessed the bravery of the person before them.
"Open the city gates immediately!"
The leader dared not delay and hurriedly gave the order in a loud voice.
soon.
The city gates were then opened.
"Enter the city!"
Han Feng gave the order expressionlessly.
Upon hearing this, Wang Tieqiang immediately led over a thousand elite soldiers of Daliang into the city.
After entering the city, they took control of the city gates.
0 .... 0
On the city walls, elite soldiers from the Great Liang army were also deployed.
Upon seeing this, Han Feng led his army into the city.
"We pay our respects to the Crown Prince!"
When Chen Yong's personal guards saw Han Feng enter, they knelt down on one knee to greet him.
“My master has already obtained the title of Marquis, he is now a Marquis.”
"You all must not call me by the wrong name again!"
The Heavenly Sin Star Mirror's inner demon looked at Chen Yong's personal guard kneeling on the ground and gave him a reminder.
Chen Yong's personal guards were all taken aback upon hearing this.
Immediately, they clasped their hands in greeting again and addressed him differently, saying, "We pay our respects to Your Excellency!"
Han Feng nodded slightly.
Where is General Chen?
Han Feng stared at the person in the lead.
