Chapter 270: That book is not a thing
It's not easy to find someone in the middle of nowhere.
But if you want to find Xiang Yu, it's not that difficult.
And the main reason is because Xiang Yu is too easy to identify.
First, Xiang Yu is eight feet tall, second, twenty-seven years old, third, he can carry the tripod, and fourth, he has a lower accent.
With these four points alone, it is really not difficult to find him by increasing the intensity of investigation along the way.
Of course, this was based on the premise that the Han army also walked a large number of scouts on other country roads in addition to the main roads of the city.
As long as the requirements are met, they will be taken away for interrogation.
Moreover, Xiang Yu had only been away for less than three days, and he relied on walking, so he couldn't walk too far, and he must still be nearby.
North suburbs of Shuyang.
Xiang Yu was tired and hungry and walked here.
The idea of revenge has taken over all of him.
The death of the concubine, the death of the father, and the death of the uncle and the brothers.
All of this, Xiang Yu attributed them to the Han army and the king of Han.
There was even an urge to kill directly in front of King Han.
And now Xiang Yu, like a walking corpse, only knows to go south with his head down, and even he doesn't know why he goes on like this.
In order to be able to avoid the eyes of the Han army, he did not enter any county town along the way, nor did he go to any place with a large number of people, official roads.
When he met the Han soldiers, no matter how many people there were, he hid and walked, and it was not until the Han soldiers left that he dared to come out and continue walking.
He did not ride a horse, did not carry a large weapon, and carried only a short blade that was easy to hide.
And today, Xiang Yu really has no choice.
The rations he brought with him have been eaten, and he can't do anything in the jungle, and he hasn't done it, and besides, in this place, where did he come from to fight him?
So, I saw a village with many people busy in the fields.
Xiang Yu decided to go forward and beg for food.
If in the past, even if he starved to death and died of thirst, he would never have done such a thing, and his dignity did not allow him to do so.
And now, he has no dignity left.
As soon as he arrived around the crowd, Xiang Yu faintly heard that these people seemed to be talking about the war in Qu County, and couldn't help but be a little curious, could the news spread so quickly?
If you didn't guess wrong, the battle in Qu County should have been participated in by my uncle.
And Xiang Yu is also curious, what is the final result over there?
"This old man, can you ask for a bowl of water to drink?" Xiang Yu endured the discomfort in his heart, gritted his teeth cheekily and stepped forward.
"Hey, this little brother is a little faceless!" The old man looked at Xiang Yu and asked.
The so-called noodle has two meanings, one is the real noodle sheng, and the other is an unfamiliar accent.
If you have a similar accent, they will basically ask you directly which village you are from.
"Yes, I am a subordinate minister, and I want to return to my hometown on this trip, but the rations are exhausted, so I can only bother the villagers!" Xiang Yu said.
"Oh, the prime minister, it's not far, less than a hundred miles to the west, two or three days away." The old man smiled and scooped out a bowl of water from the bucket and handed it to Xiang Yu.
He took out a steamed cake from his bosom and handed it over.
Xiang Yu glanced at the old man gratefully, and then devoured it.
A piece of steamed cake didn't play a role for Xiang Yu, but it was also a life-saving ration.
Although he was still very hungry, Xiang Yu was embarrassed to ask for it again at this moment.
"Little brother is coming back from the north?" The old man asked directly, as for giving him a piece, what did he give himself to eat?
It's good to be able to divide half of him, but you can't catch a sheep and pet it hard, right?
"Well, it's from the north." Xiang Yu did not deny it, and nodded directly in acknowledgement.
"Hey, it's good to come back, then you must have seen Xiang Ji, right?" The old man then asked.
Xiang Yu was stunned for a moment, and then nodded: "I've seen a few times from afar." ”
"Then you have to be careful, the Han Kingdom is now rewarding him, those who find traces and report them, reward Su Baishi after verification, follow those who confirm the hiding place, reward Su Baishi, give the five doctors, those who can capture or kill him, reward Su 500 stones, and give the lord Zuo Shuchang." The old man said.
In these years, the reward is not very popular, and food is king.
Moreover, the Han Kingdom also increased the reward of titles, which made it even more attractive to people.
The title of the Han State can be an official, although it is only a supervisor and an inspector, but it is also an official, and it also has a fortune.
Ordinary people can have such an opportunity, who will not cherish it?
Now the title of the Han Kingdom is very valuable.
"Xiang Ji is also a general of the Chu army, this head is too worthless, right?" Hearing that his head was only worth five hundred stone of grain and a Zuo chief, Xiang Yu was instantly a little dissatisfied, who did he look down on?
"I can't say that, in fact, the head of this nationality is still quite valuable, I heard that the general of the Han Kingdom originally planned to offer a reward of thousands of stones, and the lord was less than 10,000 gold, but when I thought of Xiang's person, I felt that he was not worth so much, so I reduced a lot." The old man said unhurriedly.
“???” Xiang Yu looked confused, what's wrong with me?
"I heard that this book is not a thing, leaving his uncle and the king of Chu to flee by himself, not to mention, he even let his henchmen go to tell the Han army the whereabouts of the king of Chu, and conceal his whereabouts, the Han army defeated Wu Xinjun, captured the king of Chu, and did not find the body of Xiang Ji left and right. When I asked the soldier who reported the news, I learned that the soldier was Xiang Ji's henchman, and by doing so, it was to lead the water to the east, so that the king of Chu and Wu Xinjun could attract the main force of the Han army and leave more time for himself to escape. ”
Speaking of this, the old man paused again, and then sighed and said: "Hey, you don't know how miserable Wu Xinjun died, more than 3,000 people, even the side of the Han army is gone, everyone has at least a dozen arrows stuck in their bodies." ”
"The general of the Han State had worked under Wu Xinjun back then, although his status was humble, but he also knew gratitude, so he didn't let Wu Xinjun's head be cut off, so that he could leave completely, you see, this nephew is not as good as an outsider......"
Xiang Yu clenched his fists tightly......
The teeth in his mouth trembled slightly.
Angry, dissatisfied, but the mouth is on others, how to say that it is someone's business.
And the current Xiang Yu is not the same Xiang Yu a few months ago.
Resisting the idea of killing the old man in front of him several times, Xiang Yu could only thank him in the end, and left quickly.
And the old man was a little confused, looking at Xiang Yu's back, body shape, and accent.
It looks like it's like the one announced.
Suddenly surprised: "Could he be Xiang Ji??? ”
