Xiang Yu did not stop after capturing Jinling City. He carried Xiang Guan and other generals in a boat up the river and attacked Hengshan County directly.

If you are traveling on horseback, there is a mountain range running from north to south in Hengshan Kingdom, which separates the capital city of Hengshan to the west. The mountain range can prevent foreign enemies from invading.

Xiang Yu was eager for revenge and wanted to win with one blow, leaving no chance for Wu Rui to defend.

The remnant soldiers who escaped from Jiujiang County informed Wu Rui of their defeat, only to receive lamentations in return.

"Mei Yuan has already fought for Hengshan. I, the king, have no reason to surrender in a timid battle. The generals who have reorganized the boat will fight with the Chu army in the near future!"

In the palace of Zhucheng, Wu Rui threw down the bamboo slips and scolded the ministers who had surrendered.

"If the king is like this, he will be harmed by Ziying! The king has old grudges, but Ziying only wants to let Chu and Yue fight and benefit from it. Such treacherous people cannot be together!" Wu Chen knelt down and shouted, "Commander Deng Ruo

, the life and death of Wu Cheng in the Zhu Kingdom are uncertain, no more soldiers will be killed or wounded in vain!"

"Zi Ying...The King of Qin will not plot against me. He should have wanted to use Xiang Yu's hand to kill Mei Rong, which coincidentally caused Xiang Yu to attack Hengshan." Wu Rui closed his eyes and shook his head.

"Even so, shouldn't Ziying send troops to help? He clearly wants to go with the flow! As long as Chu is weak, he can allow a country to perish. Father and king mistakenly trust others!" Wu Chen gritted his teeth and pounded the ground.

"No nonsense!"

"I'm just telling you what happened." Wu Chen did not give in and glanced at Mao Qiao in the crowd, "Chief Mao once had an old relationship with Ziying. What kind of person is Ziying? Is it possible for him to betray his friend in order to survive?

?”

Mao Qiao frowned and shook his head. Ziying once killed Mei Yuan's ministers, but he could make a dangerous bridge for the soldiers. Mao Qiao believed that Ziying would not do this.

"Mr. Mao doesn't know Ziying's heart, so he must be extremely sinister!" Wu Chen said anxiously.

"Ah? I said no, but I don't know." Mao Qiao quickly explained.

"I didn't say it bluntly before, but now it's too late to regret it! If Hengshan is destroyed, I'm afraid Ziying will send someone to rescue Mao Qiao, and he won't take into account the safety of Hengshan's important ministers."

"Don't be rude to your uncle!" Wu Rui shouted angrily.

However, the officials are in turmoil. They can die for Wu Rui, but they cannot die for Ziying.

"Asshole!"

With his son disturbing people's hearts, Wu Rui wanted to leave, but he still had to stay here to resolve a life-and-death matter.

"The surviving soldiers have returned to the country. If Xiang Yu can reach Hengshan in a few days, how can we fight without the two most skilled warriors in the country? Your Majesty... it would be better to surrender. Maybe you can avoid death."

The surrendered minister suggested again.

"Hmph, when I led my troops to unite Hengshan County, I am the best warrior! If Xiang Yu comes, I will personally lead my troops to attack him!" Wu Rui couldn't bear it anymore and stood up and shouted.

Mao Ping appeared outside the palace at some unknown time. She met Wu Rui's eyes and both sighed and avoided.

When a great disaster approaches, the king of a country is sometimes like an ordinary man who cannot even take care of his family.

"If you don't want to fight, you can stay in the capital. Those who want to fight will follow me to Pengli Lake to meet the enemy today, and today... we will be separated." Wu Rui waved his hand gently, signaling for the ministers to retreat.

The hall was filled with sadness, and no one moved.

Suddenly, footsteps could be heard outside the palace, and three or five guards pressed a young man in.

"Your Majesty, this man said that he was sent by the King of Qin to help your Majesty." The guard called.

Wu Chen turned around and took a closer look. Although the man had a smile on his face, he always felt a bit treacherous.

"This person is untrustworthy! Most likely, Ziying was sent to fight the war between Chu and Yue. This person must be for war rather than peace!" Wu Chen said first.

All the officials looked at him angrily.

The man choked on his words and laughed scornfully, "You can live if you fight, but you will die if you don't fight. I am here to help you survive. If you seek death by force, there is nothing I can do."

"Who are you?" Wu Rui asked.

"Chen Ping, the imperial censor of the State of Qin." Chen Ping raised his face and smiled, "If someone else were to send the envoy, Hengshan State might think that the King of Qin does not value Hengshan Mountain, so he came down here."

"Did you persuade Dong Yi and the Huns to attack Chen Ping of the Wei Dynasty?" Wu Chen asked. This matter had been spread by Dong Yi who was still alive, and Chen Ping's reputation was known all over the world.

"Everyone who surrendered to the Xiongnu can be trusted? Why don't you believe Xiang Yu's words? If Xiang Yu said that you would be spared and not die, then you would be safe, okay?" Chen Ping said sarcastically.

"Nonsense!"

"Nonsense? I don't think I need to remind you. You all think so, right?" Chen Ping opened his guard's hand and looked around with a smile, "Just do your thing and see if Xiang Yu will ignore Sima Longju's death and be benevolent.

Forgive you all."

All the ministers looked gloomy.

"Haha... You have reached the point where you will die, but you don't want to fight. I admire you the most. If you want to kill me, you don't need to take action. All you need to do is trap me in Zhu City. Xiang Yu will massacre the city and die together with the people of Zhu City.

." Chen Ping sneered.

Wu Chen was frightened, but still had doubts, "If Ziying wants to help him, why don't you come with your troops? How can Yingbu let you wait for Nanyang so easily?"

"Great Qin knows Yingbo's plot, so I can use this threat to get through. If I bring a large army, it will hinder Yingbo's major affairs and I will definitely not agree." Chen Ping was confident.

"What happened to Yingbu?!" Wu Chen said anxiously. His sister died at his hands and he must take revenge on Yingbu.

"This matter is not urgent. The first priority is to resolve the danger of Hengshan. In the future, the King of Qin will decide to take revenge on the King of Hengshan." Chen Ping raised his hand towards Wu Rui.

Wu Rui reluctantly nodded, "But I have never heard that Doctor Chen can lead troops in battle, so why can I help him?"

"The person who can help me...is here." Chen Ping turned around and said.

An elegant man was followed by three people who smiled lightly, and there were no Hengshan guards in trouble.

"Mr. Zifang?!"

Wu Rui stood up from the throne. Wu Chen, the Mao Qiao brothers and sisters, and all the ministers all looked happy, as if they had seen that the battle had been won.

"I am sent by the King of Qin to come here with Chen He, Ding Fu and Fu Kuan to help." Zhang Liang saluted.

"Our army is not as strong as the Chu army, and its morale is not as good as the Chu army. Can Mr. Ziying really win?" Wu Rui asked, eager to express all his concerns.

"As long as the ministers of the King of Hengshan remain calm, Xiang Guan and Sima Longju can fall into the trap and be defeated, and Xiang Yu is no exception. I can not only retreat the enemy, but also make the Chu army return with a great defeat." Zhang Liang said with a smile.

Zhang Liang has always been humble, and he used appeasement tactics to conquer the Qin Dynasty, which was admired by all the ministers. Seeing Zhang Liang speak so confidently for the first time, they had some doubts. However, after hearing this, most people's negative energy suddenly dissipated.

"Mr. Zifang is tired from traveling and traveling, so let's go to the banquet to welcome him!" Wu Chen stood up and said with a smile, took Zhang Liang's hand and walked out of the hall.

Chen He and three others followed behind them. All the ministers showed no signs of discouragement and left the palace safely. Only Chen Ping was ignored by everyone.

Mao Ping, who was about to leave, saw Chen Ping who seemed out of place, so she greeted him with a smile and walked behind Zhang Liang and his party.

"Madam, when it comes to fighting, Mr. Zifang is even better. When it comes to retreating, I will do my part as well." Chen Ping raised his face and said.

"Doctor Chen, can you give it a try someday?"
