The princess thought about it, and said to Chen Sheng: "Since this is the case, then our army should retreat a little bit, stay away from the city gate, and let him secretly send someone to deliver a letter to Zheng Guo at night." ”

A few days later, Zheng Guo received a report from a messenger from Jiguo, saying that 10,000 horses were attacking their city, and these 10,000 men were all cavalry.

King Zheng convened his ministers to discuss, and everyone believed that Jiguo was surrounded by Zheng on the east, south, and west sides, and bordered the Zhou Dynasty on the north, and all the troops of the Zhou Dynasty were only 10,000, how could there be 10,000 cavalry, and whether there was support from other major powers, and they wanted to fight Zheng Guo.

At this time, a general named Shen You said: "King, during this time, the minister listened to the gossip: there is a new force in the Zhou Dynasty, last winter to capture the subject of Qi Su State, after the spring of this year, the King of Qi brought 200,000 people to attack, but not two days to bring people back, I heard that it was a little loss, a few months ago, this force destroyed the original country, and then should be the subject of the country Fan Guo besieged, the King of Qi sent several groups of messengers, but there is no news, and now it is estimated that this force is fighting the idea of the country. ”

King Zheng was a little surprised when he heard this: "Is it King Zhou who attacked Jiguo?" General Shen, how many troops does King Zhou have now? ”

Shen You said: "The king of Zhou originally had 10,000, ate three small countries, and estimated that he had received 15,000 troops, and now he should have 25,000 to 30,000 troops." ”

The ministers thought that they should send troops to support Jeguo and directly eliminate this force, so King Zheng ordered: "Shen You obey the order, you lead 100,000 troops, and set off in 3 days to support Jeguo and eradicate this force." ”

Two days later, the spies sent by Xiang Yu to Zheng Guo reported back and said: Zheng Guo sent 100,000 troops to support Jiguo, and there was one day to go. Xiang Yu asked the princess and Chen Sheng to inform them that they would now start to surround the city and not let anyone enter or leave.

The next day, Xiang Yu Hualong brought all his men and horses to Jeguo and began to attack the city. First use a catapult to attack the city wall and the city gate, the effect is wonderful, less than twenty minutes, the city gate was opened, Xiang Yu led people to kill in, according to the custom, Hua Long and the princess they were waiting outside the city gate, suddenly, a soldier ran over and reported urgently: "General Hua, something is wrong, General Xiang was assassinated." ”

Hua Long was shocked: "How is it possible?" ”

Hua Long hurried over under the leadership of the soldiers, Chen Sheng pressed his hand on Xiang Yu's chest, Xiang Yu was covered in blood, and the ground was all over the ground. Hua Long asked Chen Sheng: "Did you call the military doctor, what happened?" ”

"Called, General Xiang was stabbed and unconscious." Chen Sheng said: "We killed the king of Jiguo, escorted their family out, General Xiang saw it, told us to stop, he saw a woman was very excited, walked in front of the woman, looked at it for a while, did not speak, then Shen hand to hug the girl, that knew that the girl suddenly took out a dagger, stabbed General Xiang, General Xiang hurriedly retreated, but it happened too suddenly, most of the dagger still stabbed into General Xiang's body; A soldier and I hurriedly took out a sword to cut the woman, General Xiang saw it, jumped directly at us, and knocked the two of us far away with both palms, he used this force, and the wound on his chest spurted out a lot of blood, and then he shouted at us: 'Call my second brother over, Yu ......', and fainted before he finished speaking. ”

After a while, the military doctor came, and hurriedly helped General Xiang stop the bleeding, and the princess was also very anxious, saying, "I will send someone to the palace to send the imperial doctor." ”

Hua Long knows the medical conditions of this era, Xiang Yu's injury, it depends on whether the heart is injured, if the heart is injured, he can't survive tonight, if he survives tonight, he will still be saved, and calling the imperial doctor will not do much, but it is better than not applauding.

After stopping the bleeding, Hua Long called someone to bring a wide plank, and then carefully moved Xiang Yu to the plank, and then carried him to the bed, and now remembered the girl who assassinated Xiang Yu, and shouted: "Bring that woman over." ”

After seeing that girl, everyone understood why Xiang Yu hugged that girl, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she has the appearance of a sinking fish and a goose. Li Tingting thought about why Xiang Yu kept ignoring herself, she couldn't compare with this woman at all. The princess always thought that her conditions were good, but compared with this girl, she felt that she was much worse, and thought: No wonder Brother Xiang is lukewarm to herself.

Hua Long didn't ask anything, and said: "Li Tingting, from now on, you will live in this room, sleep here, take care of Brother Xiang, Chen Sheng, you go and help Li Tingting move a bed, send people to take turns on duty, guard this room, and don't let anyone in without my consent; Arrange another room for this woman, Xia Xueqin lives with her, Xia Qi sends people to take turns on duty, responsible for their safety, no one will be allowed to enter without my consent, and if this woman commits suicide, escapes or starves to death, everyone will have to die, and then her family will be locked up. ”

Everyone was shocked, they had never seen Hua Long get angry, and this anger was too ruthless, but now everyone was very sad and didn't care too much.

Hua Long was in a very depressed mood, and thought: Zheng Guo's 100,000 army is about to attack, and now he doesn't know how to deal with it, run away, Brother Xiang is injured like this, if there is a bump on the road, he will definitely die, if he doesn't escape, he can't fight. I feel that I don't have any confidence at all now, thinking that since I crossed here, everything has been so smooth, so organized, so believing, and so confident, all brought to him by Xiang Yu, the two have been here for less than a year, and they have finally developed to this point, and when they are about to make great progress, this situation suddenly happened, and the two of them are estimated to die here, so let's wait for Brother Xiang to survive tonight.

That night, King Zhou's imperial physician came to see it, shook his head and said Let's see General Xiang's creation. Hua Long stayed in Xiang Yu's room and didn't sleep, and at more than 4 o'clock in the morning, Chen Sheng and Li Tingting persuaded Hua Long: "Brother Hua, go to sleep, you have to hold on, if you fall, what should we do, Brother Xiang will be taken care of by us, right?" ”

Hua Long thought to himself: Brother Xiang should be able to survive tonight, so let's go and rest by myself. The next day, Hua Long got up very late, thinking that Zheng Guo's 100,000 army should set off today, and it would be here in 5 days at most, hey, I'm too lazy to think about it now, let's go see Brother Xiang first.

Xiang Yu still hasn't woken up, and it is estimated that it will be a few days before he wakes up, and everyone is very anxious. Hua Long didn't speak for a day, and everyone didn't want to bother him, and at night, Hua Long stayed in Xiang Yu's room for a long time, and was finally persuaded by Chen Sheng and Li Tingting to go back to rest, and spent another day in dizziness.

On the third day, Hua Long woke up, called the prince, princess, Chen Sheng, Xia Qi, Xia Xueqin, and Li Tingting to his room, and said to everyone: "Prince, princess, go back with your father's 5,000 men and horses, after Zheng Guo kills us, he will not embarrass your father again; Chen Sheng, Xia Qi, Xia Xueqin, Li Tingting, you can call Chen Rong, Chen Lichuan, and Wu Changfeng again, and go home together. Hua Long suddenly thought of another matter, so he said to the princess: "Princess, there is another matter, you must help?" ”

"What's the matter? I'll definitely help. The princess said.

"Take the woman who assassinated General Xiang away, don't kill her, let them go, and give them more money." Hua Long said.

"Okay." The princess agreed.

"Brother Hua, you called us all away, you have the determination to die!" Xia Xueqin said suddenly.

Chen Sheng and the others also said: "Brother Hua, let's not leave, accompany you." ”

"No need, you're all young, let's go." Hua Long said softly.

The prince suddenly said: "General Hua, your arrangement like this, on the surface, seems to be righteous and considerate of us, but in fact, it is the most irresponsible. ”

Xia Xueqin said unhappily: "How can the prince say this about Brother Hua, he is ready to die in battle."
