Chapter 06: Late Night Visitor

Xiang Zhuang's words were extremely certain, allowing Kong Ji to see Xiang Zhuang's determination. At this moment, Kong Ji's inner swing gradually became firmer. He lowered his head and thought for a while, then looked up at Xiang Zhuang and said in a deep voice: "I got an urgent report from a horse that my father, Kong Kun, had already gone north half a month ago. It is estimated that he will reach Xianyang soon,"

"Is Uncle Kong going north?" Xiang Zhuang was slightly surprised. He did not expect that Kong Kun would go north at this time. He asked again: "Uncle Kong went north this time for the sake of his brother's entry into the customs."

Kong Ji nodded and sighed: "There are gradually differences within the Chu army. My father is very worried that the temporary prosperity of the Chu army will not last long."

Kong Kun's worries are not unreasonable. If historical development is followed, Xiang Yu was finally defeated at the hands of Liu Bang. His coquettishness and violence doomed the defeat of Chu State.

Once upon a time, Xiang Zhuang also thought that he would use his own efforts to change history and change the fate of his uncle Xiang Liang and his brother Xiang Yu. But in the battle of Dingtao, his uncle was still defeated by Zhang Han. Now, the troops have entered Xianyang. Xiang Yu is still arrogant and arrogant. Even Han Xin left sadly because of Xiang Yu's distrust. All of this is beyond Xiang Zhuang's control and cannot be changed.

Because of this, Xiang Zhuang decided that instead of changing other people's history, it would be better to change his own history. He wanted to have a place in Jiangdong. He wanted to use his own efforts to compete with Liu Bang and push Chu State back to the peak of history.

Thinking of Kong Yu going north, Xiang Zhuang told Kong Ji: "Uncle Kong is old and tired from the long journey. You must arrange for someone to go and meet him and make sure there is no mistake."

Kong Ji nodded and said: "I'm afraid there is another person in the team going north this time that you didn't expect."

Kong Ji smiled meaningfully. When Xiang Zhuang heard what he said, a beautiful figure appeared in his heart. He couldn't help asking: "You mean Xiuyun also went north?"

"It's not Xiuyun, it's Cao Feng. It's Cao Feng who escorted my father north this time," Kong Ji laughed happily. He saw that Xiang Zhuang still missed his sister. This was enough. They didn't have to be together every day. is happiness,

Xiang Zhuang did not expect that a silly girl like Cao Feng could follow Kong Kun to the north. He felt secretly happy in his heart. The dissatisfaction with Xiang Yu just wiped away. Xiang Zhuang took a long breath, got up and walked around in the tent. At this time, , Kong Ji added: "Also, there is news from Poyang that General Wu Rui also went north not long ago, and Han Wangcheng also led his army to enter the pass in a hurry,"

Speaking of this, Kong Ji pointed to the west: "I'm afraid Xianyang will never have peace from now on."

The sudden change during the dinner made Xiang Yu extremely angry. At this time, he left the commander's tent and returned to his tent accompanied by everyone. Two of his followers hurriedly brought the charcoal pot and then left.

Everyone gathered around the charcoal pot to keep warm. The night was extremely cold at this time. Xiang Yu returned to his desk and sat on the soft seat. He clenched his fist with his right hand and slammed the desk, making a muffled sound.

Xiang Zhuang suddenly fell out with him, just because of Han Xin, which Xiang Yu couldn't accept no matter what. Is this Han Xin more important than the brotherhood between himself and Xiang Zhuang?

The answer is definitely no, but why did Xiang Zhuang do such an abnormal behavior today?

Xiang Yu was puzzled. Fan Zeng, who had been warming himself by the fire, warmed his hands and came to sit on the soft mat next to Xiang Yu. Seeing that Xiang Yu was still angry, he smiled happily and said, "General, are you still angry? "

"Now that his wings are hardened, do you want to fly?" Xiang Yu sneered and shook his head helplessly.

Yu Ziqi, who had been warming himself by the charcoal pot, came over and asked with a smile: "Xiang Zhuang is indeed unusual today. Is it worth it for Han Xin to turn against the general? I think there must be some misunderstanding about this matter."

"It shouldn't be a misunderstanding. I think General Zhuang is very serious." From the side, Long Qie came over with a smile. Huan Chu, Zhong Limei, Pu Shan and others also came to sit on the soft mat next to Xiang Yu one after another. Everyone gathered around Together, although the atmosphere at the banquet was very awkward, at this time, everyone had broken away from the tense atmosphere and sat together, feeling relaxed again.

Facing everyone's discussion, Xiang Yu sighed: "I have to admit that I was dissatisfied with Han Xin when he suggested to my uncle that I go capture Xiangcheng. However, this person has high vision but low hand, so I am not optimistic about it. When it comes to Zhuang'er, Very fond of him,”

Xiang Yu was willing to lower his head and admit his mistake. Fan Zeng and others were slightly surprised. At this time, Xiang Yu continued: "If it weren't for Zhuang'er's face, this common man would have died countless times. Now that I can spare him from death, it would be very long." That's right, if Zhuang'er insists on cutting off my robe with me, I can't do anything about it."

"The matter is not that serious. Although General Zhuang is a little reckless, he will not alienate the General because of this. Please relax, General," Yu Ziqi advised,

Fan Zeng also said: "Brothers are fighting, father and son are fighting. Each of you brothers has a military power. If you can work together, why worry about the injustice of the world. I advise the general to forget what happened today. Don't let it happen. Alienated from brotherhood,"

Fan Zeng's words are easy to say, but it is not easy for Xiang Yu to abandon Cheng Jian. Moreover, Xiang Yu himself can also feel that he and Xiang Zhuang are becoming estranged day by day. To win people's hearts, has he considered his own feelings?

Xiang Yu was still deep in thought, and Fan Zeng laughed dumbly beside him and said: "I once heard that after following Xiang Zhuang southward, Han Xin made a plan to surprise Fengxiang. His plan was frightening and cunning. Therefore, General Xiang Zhuang fell in love with him. It’s inevitable,”

"Oh, tell me," Xiang Yu was interrupted from thinking, and couldn't help laughing.

"When Liu Bang came to borrow troops, General Xiang Liang promised Liu Bang that he would take Xiangzhuang as the commander, lead his army south, and assign Han Xin to General Xiangzhuang's command. After they arrived in Fengxiang, Fengxiang's guard Yongchigucheng It would be extremely difficult for the Chu army to shake Fengxiang if they defended it. If they wanted to attack Fengxiang, they would have to pay a lot of losses. Therefore, Han Xin proposed a plan to feign an attack on the city at night and had a heavy army stationed under the city. By daybreak, Fengxiang could be defeated. ,"

Speaking of this, Fan Zeng stopped talking. Everyone looked at Fan Zeng with interest. Huan Chu urged him: "What happened next?"

"Haha, later, Fengxiang was easily defeated by the Chu army after a few hours. Therefore, it can be seen that Han Xin is not mediocre. He can come up with such a cunning strategy. It is conceivable that his method of using troops is not ours. Can be easily evaluated,"

After hearing this story, Xiang Yu did change his opinion of Han Xin, but he did not regret not using Han Xin again that day. At this time, everyone was discussing this topic. Xiang Yu sighed slightly irritably: "This matter has passed and Han Xin has left. Chu Ying, don’t mention this matter again in the future,”

Everyone saw that Xiang Yu would never be able to overcome this hurdle, so they had no choice but to give up.

At this time, a personal attendant hurriedly walked in from outside the tent and came to Xiang Yu. He raised his hands and said: "General, there is a man outside the camp who claims to be from Liu Bang's camp. He has something important to ask to see the General."

Hearing that it was Liu Bang's person, Xiang Yu said slightly unhappy: "No,"

"Slow down," Fan Zeng waved his hand and stopped his departure. At this time, Fan Zeng looked at Xiang Yu and advised: "General, why don't you meet him? Besides, this person is visiting late at night, so he must have something important to do."

Seeing what Fan Zeng said, Xiang Yu could only order: "Bring him in."

Just as he walked out of the big tent, a figure hurriedly came towards him. As soon as the man stepped into the big tent, Xiang Yu and others saw clearly that it was Xiang Bo. At this time, Xiang Bo went to the charcoal pot to test the fire and warm his hands. , then looked at Xiang Yu and asked: "What's going on with you brothers today? Do you have to go to war like this for a partial general?"

Being scolded by Xiang Bo, Xiang Yu shook his head helplessly: "Uncle, you'd better sit down first."

Xiang Bo came to Xiang Yu and sat down on a soft mat. Xiang Yu sighed: "I don't like that Han Xin very much, but Zhuang'er is very fond of him because I couldn't keep him. That's what caused Zhuang'er to get furious at the banquet today. I have put this matter behind me and no longer care about it, and my uncle doesn't have to worry about it."

Xiang Yu rarely tolerates others. This time he was willing to back down. Xiang Bo's anxious heart was finally relieved. He smiled at Xiang Yu and nodded in relief. At this time, there was a sudden sound of rapid footsteps outside the tent, and everyone looked outside the tent. , I saw a group of garrison sergeants escorting a middle-aged man in black. The man quickly came to the big tent, knelt down on one knee in the tent, cupped his hands and said, "This is Cao Wu, the Zuo Sima under Liu Bang's command. The wounded soldier has a very important secret letter that he wants to give to General Xiang."

"I am Xiang Yu. Tell me, where is the secret message?" Xiang Yu stared at the man. The man took out a bamboo slip from his arms and handed it to him with slightly worried hands. A follower walked over and took the bamboo slip. , handed the bamboo slip to Xiang Yu, Xiang Yu read it quickly, and then handed the bamboo slip to Fan Zeng.

Xiang Yu frowned at this time, and there was something in the letter: Liu Bang wanted to occupy Xianyang, monopolize the palace, and enjoy the beauty. He would be the king of Qin, and Ziying would be the prime minister. He had already moved into the palace half a month ago, and it was only because Xiang Jun entered the pass. , so he had to station his troops to overlord and wait for an opportunity to attack Xiang Jun. This information was very similar to what Xiang Yu had, so Xiang Yu had to believe it.

The tent was very quiet at this time. Fan Zeng hurriedly read the letter and handed it to Xiang Bo. Xiang Bo looked at everyone one by one, and everyone had a look of surprise on their face.

Xiang Yu thought for a while, and then looked at Fan Zeng who was standing aside. Fan Zeng nodded slightly, indicating to Xiang Yu that he could send troops to attack. Xiang Yu looked at the generals again, and saw that they all looked angry. At this time, Xiang Yu slammed the table and said in anger. He shouted: "Liu Bang, a common man, has bullied me too much. I will never tolerate him in this matter."

After saying that, Xiang Yu stood up and ordered Yu Ziqi, Long Qie and others: "Immediately send orders to the three armies. I want troops to march into Bashang and kill Liu Bang."

All the generals walked out one after another and sang promises in front of Xiang Yu. Just as they were about to leave, someone beside Xiang Yu shouted in a hoarse voice: "Wait a minute..."
