On the edge of the river (Yellow River), Gao Chu had a black face, and he was training the five hundred longbowmen of the Nufeng Battalion overnight.

That day, the Daokou interception missed, although it was because Chen Xuan's disciple Manqiuchen was too vigilant, so that the other party did not enter the ambush circle and hurriedly attacked, but the performance of more than a dozen longbowmen in the Nufeng Battalion still made Gao Chu feel embarrassed, he shot Chen Xuan's nine disciples alone, but more than a dozen longbowmen did not make any achievements!

Although there are objective reasons, because the longbowmen only use a simple single longbow, neither the accuracy nor the strength can be compared with Gao Chu's iron-tire bow, but more than a dozen longbowmen each shot at least three arrows, but none of the arrows hit the target, which makes Gao Chu, the angry captain, embarrassed?

didn't say it, Gao Chu could only train five hundred archers to the death!

It is not that being tall and strong will make you a good archer, and the archer is never born, but by pulling the bow, releasing the arrow, pulling the bow again, and releasing the arrow...... This is the result of countless extremely boring exercises! For example, in Gao Chu, in order to practice archery well, the bronze finger sleeves alone wore through six!

In the sound of instigation and instigation, twenty archers lined up, holding their bows and releasing arrows under the moon, their goal was a row of scarecrows a hundred steps away in front of them, for these recruits who had only been in the army for a few months, this level of training was indeed a bit cruel, but Gao Chu didn't care about these.

Soon, twenty archers had shot all ten arrows.

Immediately, an archer ran forward with torches and reported the targets one by one: "No. 1 target, none of them hit!" ”

Gao Chu couldn't help but say that according to the head archer, he was given two lashes, and only after he finished smoking, did he say, "How does it taste?" ”

The archer in front reported again: "Target No. 2, hit an arrow!" Gao Chu untied the sheepskin bag around his waist and handed it over.

The archer, who was standing in the second place, quickly took the sheepskin bag, raised his neck and poured a big mouthful, and when he was finished, he wiped his mouth with his sleeve and praised: "Good wine, next time the villain will have to make two mouthfuls!" ”

Gao Chu snorted: "As long as you can hit five arrows in ten arrows, Lao Tzu will reward you with a whole bag!" ”

The archer was dumb, and it was a matter of luck to hit two arrows, and five out of ten arrows was a joke.

The shouts of the archers in front were still staccato: "Three targets, none of them hit; No. 4 target, none of which hit......"

When the night sky descended, there was a continuous crackling sound, this is the rule of the high school, if you shoot and drink, if you don't hit, then wait for the whip!

Gao Chu was having a good time, and suddenly there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves behind him.

When he looked back in a hurry, it was Gongsun Sui who was rushing here with a torch, and the person arrived before he could say anything: "General Gao, the general asks you to return to Aocang quickly, there is urgent military affairs!" ”

"Got it!" Gao Chu agreed, then turned around and shouted, "Collect the team, go back to the camp!" ”

In Aocang City, the hall of the government office.

More than a dozen pine torches illuminated the entire hall as bright as day, Xiang Zhuang was standing in front of the screen hanging the map with his hands behind his back without saying a word, and behind Xiang Zhuang, there were Wei Yu, Wu She, and Chen Xian, who was trembling, Chen Xuan's mood at this time could really be described as walking on thin ice, because he really couldn't guess the deep thoughts of this general of Chu State.

Chen Feng was really sleepy, saying that Xiang Zhuang trusted him, but he was afraid that no one would dare to believe it, and he didn't believe it!

But if Xiang Zhuang doesn't trust him, then why should he hand over the 30,000 Wei troops to his commander? even didn't give him a deputy from the Chu army to elbow him, which is even more unreasonable! As far as he knew, Xiang Ying wanted to be the chief general of the Wei army, but Xiang Zhuang immediately refused!

After facing the map for a while, Xiang Zhuang finally turned around: "General Chen Xuan." ”

Chen Feng hurriedly raised his hand and said respectfully: "The end will be here!" ”

Xiang Zhuang nodded, and said: "The Chu-Wei coalition army and the righteous armies of various counties and counties have captured the city one after another, and the momentum is growing, it is impossible for Liu Bang and Peng Yue in Huainan not to know, if nothing else, now Liu Bang and Peng Yue must be on the way back to the division!" Therefore, General Ben decided to personally lead the army eastward, join forces with the Dangjun Righteous Army, and attack Liu Bang and Peng Yue together! ”

After saying this, Xiang Zhuang stepped forward and put his arm around Chen Xuan's shoulder, and said earnestly: "As for the defense of Aocang and Xingyang, Guangwu, Chenggao, Jingyi, and Suoyi, I will hand it over to you, general, your task is not light, not only to guard against Lu Ze in Sanchuan County, but also to guard against the Zhao army, Yan army and Han army in Hebei to cross the river to the south." ”

"It's really hard for the last general to take on this important task." Chen Feng hurriedly said, "I hope that the general will take back his life." ”

Xiang Zhuang smiled quietly and said, "Is the general still worried about our army's sneak attack on Aocang?" ”

Chen Feng hurriedly said that he didn't dare, and Xiang Zhuang said: "Actually, the reason why our army successfully attacked Ao Cang last time was because many coincidences were gathered together, if it weren't for the general's guest Hou Chang to introduce the general into Ao Cang City, if it weren't for the general's over-cautious need to go to Chenggao to inspect in person, maybe Ao Cang is still in the hands of the general!" ”

Chen Feng hurriedly said: "The general is wise and brave, the Chu army is unstoppable, and there are military advisors and Mr. Wu Shi to assist, even if there are no coincidences, the last general will definitely not be able to defend Aocang, so I hope that the general will choose another general to guard Aocang, and the last general is willing to occupy the deputy position and do his best to help defend the city!" ”

Xiang Zhuang waved his hand and said undoubtedly: "It's you." ”

Chen Feng didn't dare to say any more, so he had to shake it and respond.

Xiang Zhuang said again: "The general will go back and send troops to take over the defense of the cities!" ”

"No!" Chen Feng bowed to Xiang Zhuang again, then turned around and walked out of the hall quickly.

Not long after Chen Feng left, Xiang Ying, Huan Chu, Ji Bu, Yu Ziqi, Xiao Kai, Jing Qian, Gao Chu and other Chu army generals walked into the hall of the government office.

Xiang Ying is also a clan general, and originally guarded Dangjun together with Xiang Tuo, the head of the Great Chu Shangzhu State and Dang County.

After Xiang Tuo was defeated by Peng Yue, he went to Lu County with more than 10,000 remnants, but Xiang Ying was trapped in Quyuyi at the junction of Dangjun and Sanchuan County.

However, after arriving in Aocang, Xiang Ying knew that it was not Xiang Yu who came, but Xiang Zhuang.

Moreover, the Chu army did not have 500,000, but only 5,000 people, Xiang Ying was inevitably disappointed, but since he had already come, he didn't want to leave anymore, after all, he still had something to eat in Aocang, right? However, for the future of the Chu army, Xiang Ying obviously has no hope, for him, a day is a day.

"Listen up." Xiang Zhuang's eyes swept across the faces of the generals, and said in a deep voice, "Now go back to the camp immediately, pick up the people in the headquarters, and start overnight!" ”

"No!" The generals Huan Chu and Ji Buzhu agreed to the promise and took the order.

In the hearts of Huan Chu, Ji Bu, Xiao Kai, Yu Ziqi, Jing Qian, Gao Juni, and other generals, as well as five thousand elite soldiers, Xiang Zhuang has established absolute authority, as long as Xiang Zhuang gives an order, they will definitely obey it to the letter, but Xiang Ying is reluctant to leave, hesitated for a moment before asking: "Xiang Zhuang, where are we going?" ”

Xiang Zhuang frowned when he heard this, these generals of the Xiang clan are really nerve-wracking, it seems that in their eyes, there is only Xiang Yu, the king, and there is no other Xiang Zhuang as a general at all! Xiang Bo was like this in the past, Xiang Han was like this later, and Xiang Ying is still like this now, will Xiang Tuo in Lu County be like this?

Wu Shi on the side couldn't help but remind Xiang Ying: "General Xiang Ying, this is a military order." ”

"I didn't ask you again!" Xiang Ying didn't have a good breath, "Lao Tzu is asking Xiang Zhuang?!" ”

"The same thing, General Ben doesn't want to say it twice!" Xiang Zhuang said coldly, "Hurry up and go back and prepare!" ”

Xiang Ying was also furious, and immediately snorted and left, Xiang Zhuang treated him like this, he had already decided to return to Quyu.

Seeing Xiang Ying leave, Wu Shi said with some worry: "General, General Xiang Ying left in a bad mood, who are you worried that he will disobey the order?" ”

"Whatever he wants." Xiang Zhuang said coldly, "If he doesn't want to go, forget it, let him fend for himself!" ”

Speaking from the heart, Xiang Zhuang really didn't want to take Xiang Ying as a burden, he himself was unruly and unruly, and the seven or eight hundred people under his command were even more burdensome, that was the real remnant of the defeated soldiers, not only the morale of the army was sluggish, morale was low, and the quality of the soldiers was also extremely low, saying that they were a rabble was considered to be elevated!

With such a rabble, how to march, how to turn to battle?

Half an hour later, a group of heavily armed "Han troops" slowly drove out of Aocang City.

On the head of Ao Cang City, Chen Feng held the battlements in his hands, standing solemnly in the wind, and behind Chen Feng, dozens of heavyweight doormen such as Hou Chang, Zhang Chun, and Man Qiuchen lined up, all with solemn expressions.

Suddenly, Manchuchen said, "General, is the Chu army really leaving?" ”

Chen Xuan nodded and said in an inexplicable tone: "Yes, Chu Jun is really leaving." ”

"I really didn't expect that Chu Jun would really leave!" Hou Chang also said, "Xiang Zhuang Xiao'er really handed over Ao Cang to the general, isn't he afraid that the general will rebel again, cut off his grain route and cut off his back road?" ”

"Sir, be careful!" Manqiuchen hurriedly stopped, "The general is no longer the Ao Cang Order of the Great Han now, but the Shangzhu State of the Great Wei and the Sanchuan County Guard!" ”

"That's what I'm saying below." Hou Chang said authentically.

Chen Feng sighed in his heart, yes, he is no longer the Ao Cang Order of the Great Han Dynasty, but the Shangzhu State of the Great Wei and the Sanchuan County Guard, so even if he is willing to defect again, Liu Bang, the king of the Han Dynasty, is afraid and will not accept it, you know, just if he loses Ao Cang, Liu Bang will definitely not spare him.

Chen Feng was silent, and only after a long time did he say, "Has Her Royal Highness the Princess left?" ”

Hou Chang said strangely: "Her Royal Highness the princess has already married Xiang Zhuang, so naturally she will follow." ”

Chen Feng fell into a long silence again, and several customers looked at each other, as if since the fall of Ao Cang, Chen Feng seemed to have changed as if he had become a different person, and he had become silent.
