"Hurry up……"

On the road northwest of Yan City, the sound of the clash of armors mixed with the low sounds of orders rolled toward the front.

A Taoist soldier's figure passed by him. As the general of the Chu army, Qu Boyong subconsciously looked to the southeast.

Yancheng, which was supposed to be quiet, seemed to be as bright as day at this moment, and the sounds of fighting and shouting became a war song floating in the sky above Yancheng.

His left hand secretly touched the sword at his waist, and a touch of anxiety that time and time could not wait quietly appeared on Qu Boyong's face.

He didn't have much time to worry about anything else. Only by taking down the dam that could determine the fate of Yan City as soon as possible could the entire war situation be completely reversed.

"All officers and men of the army, speed up!"

After giving a low command, Qu Boyong subconsciously accelerated his steps so that he could keep up with the speed of the team.

During the rapid march to the northwest, the Chu army led by Qu Boyong seemed to be favored, everything seemed so smooth, and they did not even encounter the threat of even a small group of coalition forces.

When the long night gradually dissipated and the sun shed its first ray of morning light, Qu Boyong was already standing under the high slope. Looking up, he could see the nearly completed dam above.

A hint of excitement quietly appeared in his eyes, and he held the hilt of the sword in his right hand, pointing the sharp blade forward.

"Send my order to the entire army..."

"attack!"

"kill!"

After giving the order, accompanied by the thunderous sound of charging and killing, the huge waves formed by countless Chu soldiers were about to crash towards the high slope in front of them.

But before the sky-high power of this huge wave came down, fierce sounds of breaking through the air suddenly sounded on the battlefield.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

The moment the sound rang out, the Chu soldiers who were charging upward subconsciously looked up.

When the arrow screen formed by feather arrows and crossbow arrows came into view, a look of fear appeared on everyone's faces.

"Be careful, there is an ambush!"

Shouts soon rang out among the Chu army's ranks, but at this moment it was already too late. Feather arrows and crossbow bolts poured down in an instant, and the sharp arrow clusters effortlessly penetrated the Chu army's armor.

A dull sound resounded in the phalanx, and the Chu soldiers fell on the charging road one after another, with bright red blood flowing on the battlefield.

Below, seeing all this, the expression on Qu Boyong's face looked particularly ugly.

At this moment, how could he not see that what was in front of him was not the opportunity he had been waiting for to turn the tide of the war, but a trap carefully prepared by the coalition forces for him and his soldiers.

The situation was just as Qu Boyong expected. Just as the Chu soldiers who were hit head-on were gradually retreating, a loud voice suddenly came from above.

"The distinguished guest is here, and Pang Juan seems to be a little distant to welcome him."

"Pang Juan..."

After gritting his teeth and saying the name, Qu Boyong saw only the silhouette of a Taoist soldier emerging above him, and a red banner of the Wei army fluttering high in the wind.

Under the banner, the Wei soldiers who were waiting in full formation suddenly gave way to a path. The leader of the coalition forces, General Pang Juan of Wei, came to the front of the formation under Qu Boyong's gaze.

"I wonder where Da Sima is?"

When Pang Juan's questioning voice from above fell into his ears, Qu Boyong pressed his sword with his left hand and immediately prepared to step forward to answer.

But before he could take a step forward, a right hand suddenly rested on his shoulder, "Sima, wait a minute, I'm afraid there's some fraud involved!"

"Is it a scam?"

He glanced up with a bit of a wry smile, looking at the almost invisible red torrent above, and suddenly a ridiculous feeling arose in his heart.

There might be some fraud involved, as he had already fallen into the trap prepared by the person above.

Secretly calming down his mind, a look of solemnity appeared on his face, Qu Boyong walked step by step past a famous Chu soldier who was guarding him in front.

"Qu Boyong, the Qu family, has met the general."

Pang Juan looked down at Qu Boyong, who was slowly bowing in front of him. There was no slightest hint of contempt in his eyes, but he treated him with the same courtesy.

"Pang Juan, I have met Da Sima."

After standing up, he glanced at a famous Chu soldier below, and Pang Juan's voice rang in Qu Boyong's ears.

"With the ability of the Great Sima, the strength of the Chu army's officers, and the strength of Yan City, if our army wanted to attack Yan City, it would not be an easy task. If not, our army would not patrol under Yan City.

As time goes by, it becomes difficult to make progress.”

"It's just that the weather is on my side, and the continuous rain has given our army a good opportunity to break the city, and it has also facilitated the meeting between Da Sima and I, Pang Juan, today. Now, Yan City has fallen into the hands of our army, and so has the army led by Da Sima.

There is no way to retreat.”

"Your Chu army was defeated in this battle!"

Every time Pang Juan said something, the expression on Qu Boyong's face became uglier; until he heard the last four words, a bitter taste suddenly filled his mouth.

It's just that Qu Boyong understood that he couldn't show even a little bit of weakness at this moment. All he could do was to swallow the blood in his mouth.

There were still some traces of blood on his teeth. Qu Boyong stared at Pang Juan above him, "The general said this just to shake the morale of our army."

"Pang Juan just wants to tell Da Sima that now the victory between you and me has been decided, and there is no need to start this unnecessary battle." Pang Juan shook his head and said loudly to Qu Boyong.

"No need."

The long sword in his right hand pointed at Pang Juan from a distance, and Qu Boyong said resolutely, "Qu Boyong has something to tell the general. The sons of my Qu family have always been willing to sacrifice themselves for the country. They will never be greedy for life, afraid of death, or endure humiliation and steal their lives."

"If you want to fight, then fight!"

"kill!"

Holding a long sword, shouts rang out at the front of the Chu army's formation. Qu Boyong took the lead and launched an offensive against the Wei army above.

Looking at the resolute figure below, Pang Juan's face showed a bit of sadness, and then he silently retreated to the center of the Wei army's formation.

Facing the earth-colored tide coming up again from below, the Wei soldiers couldn't help but hold the halberd and giant oar in their hands.

"Wei Wu soldiers, prepare to meet the enemy!"

…

South Korea, Wanjun, Wancheng.

A fast horse galloped into Wancheng, delivering the news from the front line to the king of Wei, Wei Feng, and the king of Han, Han Wu, who had stayed in Wancheng for many days.

"Report..."

"Your Majesty, King Han, our army has successfully conquered Yan City. The leader of the Chu army, Grand Sima Qu Boyong, died in the battle."

"Zhengzheng martyr, it's a pity, it's really a pity."

"What a pity indeed!"

Facing this battle report from the front line, Wei Feng and Han Wu first expressed their regrets for Qu Boyong, who died for his country, and then began to celebrate the victory achieved in Yancheng.

"Yan City is the gateway to the Ying capital of Chu State. Now that Yan City has been captured by our coalition forces, Ying City is very close."

"Han Wu congratulates the king of Wei and congratulates the state of Wei."

"King Han, you don't have to be like this." Wei Feng waved his hand gently and said with a smile on his face: "After this battle, Chu's threat to Wancheng has been completely weakened, and Wancheng will be stable from now on."

"On the contrary, I want to congratulate the King of Han and congratulate South Korea!"

"Congratulations, congratulations!"

"Hahaha……"

Because of this battle report from the front line, cheerful smiles rang out in Wancheng;

Because of this battle inside and outside Yan City, the fate of the Chu State and even the world gradually began to become clear.
