Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne

Liu Che stood on a high slope, looking at the fighting on the front battlefield, with a slight smile on his lips.

The Han army ambush led by Lu Xun did not disappoint his expectations. The Chu army's vanguard cavalry suffered heavy casualties under the rain of arrows. In the chaos, the Han cavalry took the opportunity to charge and forced the Chu army back hundreds of steps.

"Chu Ning, you're nothing but this!"

Liu Che sneered, his eyes gleaming with the pleasure of revenge. "Do you think I will flee like a stray dog? Today I will make you realize that the might of the Han army is not in vain!"

However, just when he thought he had victory—

"kill--!"

"Kill all the Han troops!"

The deafening shouts of killing suddenly erupted from both sides!

Liu Che was shocked all over and turned his head suddenly. He saw two cavalry units of the Chu army sweeping in like raging waves under the morning light. Their iron hooves stepped on the ground, shaking the earth!

"This...what's going on?" Liu Che's face suddenly changed, and a hint of horror flashed in his eyes.

"Your Majesty! Something bad is happening!"

A scout came galloping over, his face filled with fear. "The commander of the right wing of the Chu army is the famous Chu general Zhao Yu, and the commander of the left wing is Ran Ming! Both wings of our army... have collapsed!"

"waste!"

Liu Che was furious and roared, "What are those two wings for? How could they be breached so quickly?"

However, before he could finish his words, the situation on the battlefield had completely gotten out of control!

On the left wing of the battlefield, the Han army's defense line had been shattered.

A Han general had just organized a shield wall to try to stop the Chu army's charge, but the next second...

"boom!"

A black warhorse rushed into the formation like a hurricane. The general on the horse held a 10-foot-long spear in his hand. The tip of the spear was stained with blood and flashed with cold light!

"Anyone who stands in my way will die!"

Ran Ming laughed wildly and swept his spear across, knocking three Han shield soldiers away in an instant, their sternums broken and blood spitting out of their mouths!

"Stop him! Stop him!" the Han army captain roared, but before he finished speaking, Ran Ming had already rushed in front of him, and his spear stabbed out like a poisonous dragon -

"Pfft!"

The tip of the spear pierced the captain's throat and blood spurted out!

Ran Ming grinned grimly, lifted the corpse high up with one arm, and then smashed it hard into the Han army formation!

"Hahaha! The Han army is nothing but this!" He laughed wildly, his spear flying left and right. Wherever it passed, the Han army fell like straw.

The Chu cavalry followed closely behind, crushing the Han army's resistance with their iron hooves, and the left wing defense line completely collapsed!

On the right wing battlefield, the situation of the Han army was even more tragic.

Zhao Yu, dressed in silver armor, rode his horse to charge into the battle, the spear in his hand flashing with cold light like a swimming dragon, and his spear shot out as fast as lightning, every strike was sure to take a life!

"Form a formation! Form a formation quickly!" the Han general roared, trying to stabilize the situation.

However, Zhao Yu sneered, shook his spear, and the tip of the spear drew a silver arc, instantly piercing the chests of three Han soldiers!

"Kill!" He shouted loudly, and his horse suddenly accelerated and rushed straight towards the main general of the Han army!

The Han general was horrified and quickly blocked with his sword, but how sharp was Zhao Yu's spearmanship?

There was a flash of the spear, and the long spear circled the blade like a poisonous snake and instantly pierced into the throat of the Han general!

"puff!"

Blood gushed out, the Han general's eyes widened, and he fell off his horse with a bang!

"The general is dead!" The Han soldiers shouted in horror, and their morale collapsed instantly.

Zhao Yu raised his spear high and shouted sternly, "Soldiers of the Chu army, follow me and kill the enemy!"

Silver armor was stained with blood, war horses were neighing, and Zhao Yu led the Chu cavalry to rush into the Han army like a torrent, leaving corpses everywhere in their path!

Liu Che stood on a high slope, watching his left and right wings being killed by the Chu army, his face ashen.

"His Majesty!"

Jiang Yun rode closer, his voice trembling, "Both wings have collapsed. General Lu's ambush troops are still holding us in the front, but if we don't retreat, our army will be completely wiped out!"

Liu Che gripped the reins tightly, his knuckles turned white, and a look of struggle flashed in his eyes.

"Retreat?" He gritted his teeth and growled, "If we retreat now, what will happen to Lu Xun and those 20,000 soldiers?"

Jiang Yun was silent.

Liu Che suddenly raised his head and looked towards the battlefield——

On the left wing, Ran Ming's spear had penetrated the Han army's formation and was heading straight for the center army!

On the right wing, Zhao Yu’s silver spear was like a dragon, and the corpses of the Han army were everywhere!

On the front battlefield, Lu Xun was still fighting desperately, but with the collapse of both wings, his troops were surrounded by the Chu army on three sides!

"Damn it!"

Liu Che finally made up his mind, yanked the reins, and shouted angrily, "Order! Retreat!"

Jiang Yun was shocked: "Your Majesty! General Lu and those 20,000 brothers..."

"I don't care about that anymore!"

Liu Che interrupted sharply, "Break as many as you can! If you delay any longer, I will die here!"

Before he finished speaking, he had already turned his horse's head, kicked the horse's belly hard, and the warhorse neighed and galloped towards the north!

Upon seeing this, the morale of the Han army completely collapsed. They threw away their armor and weapons and fled in all directions!

On the front battlefield, Lu Xun was covered in blood, and his long sword had cut into his body, but his eyes were still sharp.

"General! His Majesty has retreated! We..." A captain approached with a terrified look on his face.

Lu Xun glanced at him coldly and gritted his teeth, "If we retreat too, the Chu army will definitely pursue Your Majesty!"

He suddenly looked up and looked at the fluttering dragon flag in the Chu army formation in the distance - Chu Ning was there!

"Pass the order! All troops, follow me and charge!" Lu Xun shouted sternly, "Kill them all! Kill as many as you can!"

He knew that he was doomed to die, but if he could delay the Chu army, or even... kill Chu Ning, he might be able to buy Liu Che a chance of survival!

"Kill!" Lu Xun raised his long sword and led the remaining elite Han army to rush towards the Chu army!

In the Chu army formation, Chu Ning looked at the Han army's counterattack coldly, with a sneer on his face.

"It's quite courageous."

He slowly drew the sword from his waist, the blade flashing with a cold light: "But... this is the end!"

"Your Majesty!" the general beside him said hurriedly, "I will kill him!"

Chu Ning snorted coldly: "No need, I will come myself!"

Before he finished speaking, he had already rushed out on his horse, and the warhorse swept across the battlefield like lightning, heading straight for Lu Xun!

Seeing this, Lu Xun's eyes flashed with madness: "Chu Ning! Just in time!"

If we can kill the Emperor of Chu, it will be an honor even if we lose this battle!

The two of them clashed instantly—

"clang!"

Lu Xun slashed down with his long sword, Chu Ning blocked it with his sword, and sparks flew!

"Han general, tell me your name!" Chu Ning shouted coldly.

"The Han general who guards the north, Lu Xun!" Lu Xun roared, and the sword turned and swept out!

Chu Ning sneered, turned his body to the side, and stabbed Lu Xun's throat with the sword as sharp as lightning!

Lu Xun was shocked and leaned back quickly. The sword edge grazed his neck, leaving a blood mark!

"Good skills." Chu Ning praised, and then the sword's momentum changed again, attacking like a storm!

Lu Xun gritted his teeth and resisted, but Chu Ning's swordsmanship was extremely sharp, and every sword strike went straight to the vital point!

"Dang! Dang! Dang!"

Swords collided and sparks flew!

In the seventh round, Chu Ning suddenly changed his tactics and stabbed Lu Xun's chest with his long sword like a poisonous snake!

Lu Xun barely managed to block the attack with his sword, but Chu Ning flipped his wrist and the sword slashed across his wrist.

"Pfft!"

Blood splattered, Lu Xun groaned, and the long sword fell out of his hand!

"It's over." Chu Ning said coldly, and his long sword pierced Lu Xun's heart like lightning!

Lu Xun's pupils suddenly shrank, and he wanted to dodge, but it was too late -

"puff!"

The sword pierced through the chest and blood gushed out!

Lu Xun's eyes widened, blood oozing from the corners of his mouth, and he slowly fell off his horse...

Chu Ning put away his sword, looked at his body indifferently, and said lightly: "Give him a proper burial. He was a warrior."

Then he looked up to the north - the direction Liu Che escaped, with murderous intent in his eyes.

"Pass on my order, the entire army will pursue!"

"I want Liu Che's head!"
