Chapter 21: Shouchun under the Bloodless Blade (Ask for Collection, Ask for Recommendation)

The 30,000-strong army was like a pack of wolves, and under the leadership of Li Zuoche, the head wolf, swept towards the Jingchuan River.

The heart of pursuit is great, Li Zuoche is a famous and wise man, he naturally knows that in the hands of Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, there is the jade seal of the king of Qin that the princes of the world dream of.

Li Zuoche knew better that the pursuit of the Han king was coming soon, and he wanted to kill Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, and seize the jade seal of the king of Qin before the Han army arrived.

……

"Phew!"

As soon as he grabbed the reins of the horse, Li Zuoche's expression changed impermanently, the big river in front of him blocked the road, the two sides of the bank were silent, and the perennial sense of smell on the battlefield made him sense that something was wrong for the first time.

There was no battle between the two sides, let alone traces of battle, which means that the Chu army crossed the Jingchuan River, and the war must have taken place on the opposite bank.

"Come, immediately go to the vicinity to collect boats for the army to cross the river."

"No."

……

Li Zuoche was anxious, but at this moment he didn't have a good way, the Jingchuan River was rushing and turbulent, and the army couldn't cross the river at all.

Moreover, the winter is cold, and the river water is cold to the bone. Crossing the river in such a turbulent water is certain death.

"What a powerful prince of Chu, he uses soldiers like a god, and he is really no longer under the overlord of Western Chu."

……

"Drive!"

Xiang Tian, who was galloping all the way, didn't know what Li Zuoche was thinking at the moment, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care. At this moment, he was leading 27,000 Chu troops, exhausted.

Breaking through the ten-sided ambush of Han Xin, the king of Qi, is the only obsession in Xiang Tian's heart.

"Prince, ahead is Shouchun."

……

Xiang Tianhu's eyes were like knives, his left hand pointed forward, and said, "Can the Zhou Yin military flag that was ordered to be made before the Lone Breakthrough be there?"

"It's in the army."

The thought flickered, Xiang Tian said in a deep voice, "Beat out Zhou Yin's military flag, pretend to be Zhou Yin's army, and deceive Shouchun."

"No."

Xiang Tian had expected this step before breaking through, Zhou Yin was the former Grand Sima of the Chu State, and the Chu army of Shouchun was equipped with the same equipment as the Chu army led by Xiang Tian.

As long as the flag of Zhou Yin's army is played, it is enough to confuse the real with the fake. Moreover, Xiang Tian burned the King of Chu and the banner of the Chu army in the mountains of the two places, just for this moment.

……

Before the army, a large banner of Zhou characters was waved in the wind, and 27,000 Chu troops were approaching Shouchun.

……

Shou Chun.

Shouchun was originally an important town in Western Chu, but after Zhou Yin rebelled against Chu, it no longer belonged to Western Chu.

"Second general, there is an army of 30,000 people approaching Shouchun, and their banner is General."

Zhou Shou was called the second general by the soldiers, because he was the brother of the general Zhou Yin, but compared with Zhou Yin, Zhou Shou's talent was plain, and he was simply a fool who ate and waited for death.

If it weren't for Zhou Yin's old remembrance and promotion of him to deputy general, I'm afraid that the five thousand soldiers guarding the city in the city would not have taken him in their eyes at all.

"Brother is back, open the city gate quickly, I was going to welcome my brother outside the city in triumph."

"No."

I have to say that since Xiang Tian broke through, his luck has begun to improve, whether it is the arson of the mountains in the two places, or the attack on the Jingchuan River in the middle of the crossing, he has a thrilling time.

And it was Zhou Shou who defended Shouchun who was stunned, it can be said that Xiang Tian had been fighting for many days, and finally had a chance to breathe.

……

"Prince, there are people out of the city ahead, as if to welcome our army."

Hearing this, Prince Xiang Tian was overjoyed, looked at Xiang Sheng on the side, and said: "This is just right, our army can go down to Shouchun without blood, and order the army to catch up."

"No."

……

In an instant, Xiang Tian and the others rushed in front of Zhou Shou, and Xiao Kai led the left battalion to surround Zhou Shou and the others.

"Phew!"

Gently pulling the reins of the horse, Xiang Tian finally looked at the opposite side, smiled slightly, and said.

"Lone again, thank the general and go out of the city to greet him."

……

"Who are you?"

Even if the nerves were big, Zhou Shou understood at the same time that the army was besieged, and this army was not his brother, but other generals pretending to be it.

"Haha......"

Smiling proudly, Xiang Tian took a deep look at Zhou Shou and said, "Remember, the lonely name is Xiang Tian."

……

"Xiao Kai, lead the army to control Shouchun."

"No."

Looking at Xiao Kai leading the army away, Xiang Tian said, "Xiang Sheng, follow the lonely into the city."

"No."

……

The bloodless swords of Shouchun were a bit unexpected by Xiang Tian, and at the same time, this also gave Chu Jun a little more trust in Xiang Tian.

Along the way, Prince Xiang Tian's performance can be called excellent. Even if it is replaced by Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, I am afraid it will not be more perfect than this.

After continuous battles, although Xiang Tian's prestige in this Chu army was not as high as Xiang Yu's, he would not be ignored as before.

……

In the county government, Xiang Tian sat in the first place, and the voice of Xiang was everywhere.

"Uncle Sun Jian, order Xiao Kai to control the Shouchun City Gate, and the rest of the army will rest on the spot, the war horses will be fed, and the soldiers will eat."

"No."

Watching his uncle and grandson Jian leave, Xiang Tian then set his eyes on Xiang Sheng and said.

"The situation is in crisis, we can't afford to slack off for a moment, Uncle Clan, you immediately organize people to recruit troops in Shouchun City, the more the better."

"No."

……

"General Zhou, in the treasury of Shouchun Mansion, is there enough grain and grass?"

Everyone else left, and only Xiang Tian and Zhou Shou were left in the entire county government, and at this moment he already knew that Zhou Shou was Zhou Yin's brother.

It's just that compared to Xiang Sheng and the others' anger at Zhou Yin's rebellion, Xiang Tian is undoubtedly much calmer. After stopping Xiang Sheng and others from killing Zhou Yin's family, Zhou Shou was grateful to Xiang Tian.

……

Xiang Tian knew in his heart that since Long He died in battle and his father Fan Zeng left, the talents in the Western Chu Kingdom withered, and the people who were in charge were almost nothing.

Now that Zhong Liwei and Yu Ziqi do not know the life and death, and the lieutenant generals of the army have withered, Xiang Tian must deal with it carefully, because Zhou Yin is not simple.

Xiang Tian, who is at this time, can get a fierce general, that is.

……

"Are you the crown prince Xiang Tian?"

Zhou Shou finally realized who the young man in front of him was, because he had been known for a long time, he still called Xiang Tian with affection.

He called Xiang Tian the crown prince, not the prince of Chu, which meant that Zhou Shou always recognized him as a Chu person.

"Exactly."

This point was naturally noticed by Xiang Tian, who was good at observation, and the Shouchun army and people had a heart for Chu, which was undoubtedly great news for Xiang Tian.

……

"The last general Zhou Shou, meet the prince."

After a pause, Xiang Tian smiled slightly and said, "General Zhou doesn't have to be like this, can you tell Gu how the situation is in the city?"

Zhou Shou, who was full of excitement, seemed to have forgotten Zhou Yin's betrayal of Chu, and said to Xiang Tian.

"Prince Yu, there is plenty of grain and grass in Shouchun City, and the people all have the heart of Chu."

After a pause, Zhou Shou suddenly remembered something, and said to Xiang Tian: "Prince, there is a person in the prison of Shouchun City, who is a Wushi from Xuyi."

In Zhou Shou's opinion, since Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, has arrived in Shouchun, this means that the battle of Qixia has been defeated by the overlord of Western Chu.

In order to prevent Xiang Tian from pursuing Zhou Yin's betrayal of Chu, Zhou Shou at this moment can be said to know everything and say everything.
