Sky Curtain: The Overlord Charges into Battle, Shocking Emperors of All Dynasties
Chapter 2 Feather's Divine Valor, Unparalleled in History
On the sky, a powerful melody began to play: (Jingwei, the March of the King of Guanzhong, DJ version).
【Ta-da! Ta ...
But what is the meaning of my existence? The unwavering passion that fills my joys and sorrows?
I understand~
On the hillside, Xiang Yu, riding his black horse and wearing silver armor, led twenty-eight cavalrymen, reining in their horses on the slope, his face calm.
Below the hillside, more than 5,000 Han soldiers were arrayed and waiting, completely surrounding them.
Behind him, Liu Bang stood behind several armored soldiers carrying shields, looking smug, and said to Xiao He beside him, "Now Xiang Yu has nowhere to escape."
"They can't escape."
This is a force of over five thousand soldiers, while Xiang Yu has less than thirty men by his side. Surely they can win now?
If you, Xiang Yu, can still win like this, then I, Liu Bang, will eat this shield right here and now!!!
Xiang Yu charged forward on his horse, followed closely by twenty-eight riders, none of whom flinched or fled.
Xiang Yu raised his Overlord Spear high,
"kill!!"
A total of 29 men charged straight toward the Han army at the foot of the hill.
Astride his black steed, Xiang Yu galloped like a whirlwind, spear in hand, charging into the Han army's ranks, encountering no enemy who could withstand his attack.
The spear in his hand was not limited to thrusting forward; it transformed into a long dragon in his hands, slashing, thrusting, picking, and deflecting with ease.
The spear possessed the strength of a hegemon, capable of piercing a Han soldier's chest with a single thrust, lifting him off his horse and hurling him at the surrounding Han troops.
The black horse charged relentlessly, and Xiang Yu continued his charge, his spear flashing in front of and behind him, his armor and face splattered with the blood of Han soldiers.
The twenty-nine riders moved as if they were in an empty field. For a moment, the Han soldiers around Xiang Yu retreated as if they had seen a god or a demon.
Liu Bang, standing behind the shield, initially seemed confident of victory.
As Xiang Yu charged into battle, the expressions on his face gradually changed, from confidence to surprise, confusion, fear, and bewilderment.
Is this human?
This guy is practically a superman; who could possibly beat him?
Twenty-nine against five thousand, Xiang Yu lost two men, while I lost several thousand. I'm not even going to bother with the act anymore.
Not only did Liu Bang grin with disbelief at Xiang Yu's charge, but people from other time periods who witnessed this scene were also dumbfounded, especially the military generals.
Dude, are you serious? I thought it was an open secret that historical records exaggerated battle achievements, like saying that if there were 5,000 enemy soldiers and 500 were beheaded, it could be written as 30,000 enemy soldiers and several thousand were beheaded.
How come your account in the history books isn't exaggerated at all?
Shen Chuan saw Xiang Yu charging into battle on his black horse, his silver armor and black steed gleaming with his spear, a sight that resembled a beautiful ink painting.
This is me!!! Just like in my dreams.
This is so cool! This is the real battle on the battlefield. No wonder there is no king who surpasses Xiang Yu and no general who surpasses Li Yu. This is the pinnacle of human martial arts.
Not to mention that he didn't charge alone, but led twenty-eight men, and in the end only lost two.
Three Kingdoms
When Liu Bei and the others saw this, their eyes widened, and Guan Yu even forgot to stroke his long beard, also stunned.
"Brother, strategist, I think Xiang Yu is nothing special. Didn't Second Brother also behead Yan Liang amidst ten thousand troops?" Zhang Fei said, somewhat indignant at the three men's shocked expressions.
"Third brother, that's not how it's calculated," Guan Yu said to Zhang Fei, regaining his composure.
"Xiang Yu had no reinforcements at the time, and his army's morale was low; they were a desperate army."
Under these circumstances, he led twenty-eight cavalrymen to successfully break through the encirclement, including killing enemy generals and capturing flags, and repeatedly charging into enemy lines. After the successful breakout, he only lost two men.
"I was the vanguard, with reinforcements behind me. Yan Liang was caught off guard and his army was unable to cope, which is why I was able to behead him."
"Whether in personal bravery or in leading troops into battle, I am inferior." Guan Yu shook his head.
Zhuge Liang, on the contrary, became curious about the text comments that appeared on the sky. Although the characters were different and some of them had no meaning, he soon understood their general meaning.
"Strategist, I can actually understand the meaning of these words!"
However, the text states that Xiang Yu brought twenty-eight sons of Zhao Yun...
"Indeed, it seems that Zilong must be referring to the Zilong standing before us."
"Ah, are you talking about me?"
Zhao Yun was clearly a little unsure; how could he have been recorded by the heavens?
Liu Bei grasped Zhao Yun's hand, his face beaming with undisguised joy.
"Zilong's bravery will surely be known to the Celestial Immortal. We congratulate Zilong."
Liu Bei raised his wine cup.
At the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty, Liu Bang had already closed his eyes.
Fan Kuai and the others, as if they had just seen Liu Bang, immediately showed expressions of grief and burst into tears.
"Your Majesty, you can't die! Could it be that you were scared to death by Xiang Yu?"
"Bullshit!" Liu Bang opened his eyes and cursed at Fan Kuai and the others when he heard his men wailing.
"Your Excellency does not wish to see that beast Xiang Yu again."
Even now, Liu Bang still feels a bit scared. The scene on the sky seems to be a replay of what happened back then, vividly showing his expression at the time.
The music, especially when paired with the visuals, is even more chilling, as if Xiang Yu is about to jump out of the sky and shoot you.
Shen Chuan opened the comments section. The people in the comments section were witty and spoke nicely; they were all talented.
People in different time periods also saw the comments section.
[Feather's valor is unparalleled throughout history]
[Liu Bang: This is a human! I remember I was the one who surrounded him (with picture)]
Follow-up comment: Twenty-eight to five thousand, the advantage is on my side!!
This is a true general, compared to a certain TV drama.
Don't forget the Battle of Pengcheng, where Xiang Yu won with 30,000 troops against 560,000.
[There's someone even more valiant than Lü Bu! Whose general is this?]
Follow-up comment: Deaf again (doge emoji)
[This is the only person who wasn't an emperor but was included in the Imperial Annals—that's incredibly prestigious!]
Although Xiang Yu wasn't a good ruler, he was undeniably a brilliant and courageous warrior.
Follow-up comment: Putting aside his stubbornness and lack of clear distinction between rewards and punishments, the burning of Xianyang alone is enough to show how brainless Xiang Yu was and how he lacked the vision required to conquer the world.
Follow-up comment: That's right. Xianyang preserves the ancient books and records of the various states after Qin conquered them, as well as the technological relics of the Qin Dynasty itself. If Xiao He hadn't brought the archives out in advance, even if Liu Bang had eventually conquered the country, without institutional references and data support from various regions, governing the country would have been a major problem.
Follow-up comment: Regarding the burning of Xianyang, Xiang Yu could easily sit at the same table as Dong Zhuo. This was no less significant than the Qing Dynasty's compilation of the Siku Quanshu (Complete Library of the Four Treasuries), which nearly led to the extinction of Chinese civilization.
Shen Chuan looked at the comments section and remembered that when he was in high school, there was an excerpt from the Biography of Xiang Yu, "The Siege of Gaixia," in his Chinese textbook. At that time, he admired Xiang Yu very much and thought that Liu Bang was a hypocrite and Xiang Yu was the real hero.
As I grew older and learned more about Xiang Yu's deeds, I realized that Xiang Yu was not suited to be a monarch, but only a general.
He himself lacked the vision and magnanimity expected of a monarch, and even promoted the enfeoffment system, granting fiefdoms to various vassal kings. If Xiang Yu had truly conquered the world, the Chinese land might have resembled modern Europe, with numerous states.
Qin Dynasty
The assembled officials in the hall trembled with fear, not daring to move an inch, their heads bowed to the ground. The entire hall was oppressed by an invisible aura, the source of which was the First Emperor, Ying Zheng, with a somber face, seated on the dragon throne.
Everyone was marveling at Xiang Yu's superhuman abilities and unparalleled bravery, but suddenly words appeared in the sky saying that he destroyed the Qin Dynasty and burned Xianyang? Which Qin Dynasty could it be? It can only be our Qin Dynasty.
Moreover, the decorations and weapons of the people in the sky are clearly the same as ours now.
"Xiang Yu, Xiang Yu."
"My Great Qin Dynasty was destroyed by Xiang Yu, and there was also Liu Bang."
Ying Zheng originally thought that his Qin Dynasty would last for thousands of generations, so he called himself the First Emperor, and that his descendants would be the Second, Third, and so on without end.
However, the information on the sky indicated the fall of the Qin Dynasty, and even the existence of the Qing Dynasty after it. Judging from the tone of the information on the sky, it was clear that the Qing Dynasty did not follow the Qin Dynasty, and there were several dynasties in between.
"Your Majesty, the most urgent matter is to confirm whether Xiang Yu and Liu Bang have been born. If they haven't been born yet, that would be better..."
The courtiers in the hall also realized that if Xiang Yu and Liu Bang were still alive today, wouldn't that mean that the Qin Dynasty wouldn't last much longer before it was destroyed?
Ying Zheng pondered for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "Immediately send men to search the entire country for anyone named Xiang Yu or Liu Bang. If they are found, regardless of age, bring them back to Xianyang immediately."
Ying Zheng was eager to know how later rulers governed the Qin Dynasty.
He glanced at Fusu standing beside him and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. This child is filial and righteous, but he is nothing like me. He has been brainwashed by Confucian benevolence and righteousness.
The reason why our Great Qin was able to rise from a small western state to unify the world was because of its iron will and domineering nature, not because of its benevolence and righteousness.
However, Ying Zheng also understood that his other sons were even less capable than Fusu. Fusu was weak-willed, but capable of maintaining the status quo.
The remnants of the six former states were stirring up trouble, and the people in the former territories were restless. Thinking of this, Ying Zheng's eyes turned cold.
"I wonder how much more time Heaven will grant me," Ying Zheng murmured, gazing up at the sky. "If there truly are immortals, could you perhaps grant me a few more years..."
