In the next few days, Han Xin stayed at Xiang's house, wanting to see Yu Miaoyi but couldn't find a suitable excuse. Fortunately, Xiang Yu has nothing to do these days, and Han Xin doesn't feel too bored to have him by his side.

Both of them are martial arts masters, Xiang Yu is born with divine power and is invincible, while Han Xin is superb in swordsmanship and agile in his body. In the past few days, the two of them have been learning martial arts whenever they have free time, and they are also quite interested.

On this day, Han Xin and Xiang Yu made another move in the garden, both of them were bare-chested, holding short weapons and fighting fiercely.

I saw Han Xin stumbling under his feet, almost slipping, and saw that Xiang Yu's big knife had been swung to his chest, but his arm was sore, and he was unable to raise his sword to parry.

When he reached Han Xin's chest, Xiang Yu suddenly stopped, put away his knife and jumped back, laughing; "Pleasure, pain."

Han Xin smiled bitterly, his martial arts may not be weak to Xiang Yu, but it is not as good as this guy's innate divine power. After an hour of fierce fighting, his hands and feet were already sore, but Xiang Yu seemed to be inexhaustible, and the more he fought, the more courageous he became. I don't know how this guy was born from his mother's womb, he doesn't look like a human at all.

Picking up the tea next to him, Han Xin only felt that his mouth was dry, so he drank it all.

I heard a burst of applause at the entrance of the garden, but it was Yu Ziqi who was clapping his hands and clapping with a smile, and when he saw that the two had finished the fight, he stepped forward and said with a smile; "Brother Yu is good at martial arts, and Brother Han, it's not easy for you to be able to hold on to Brother Yu for so long."

Xiang Yu said with a smile; "Ziji, I haven't played with you for a long time, and today is in high spirits, let's try it too."

Yu Ziqi hurriedly shook his head like a rattle, and said with a stupid face; "Brother Yu, I'm not your opponent, I didn't lie on the bed for several days after I did it with you before, but now it's rare to have Brother Han on par with you, so I don't need it." After speaking, he smiled and squeezed his eyes at Han Xin, and his smile was a little narrow. How could he not know the physical strength of Xiang Yu's monster, in the past, Xiang Yu had pulled him up when he had no opponent, but now when he saw Han Xin's unlucky look, he couldn't help but gloat a little.

Han Xin was a little angry, so he could only drink tea violently.

"Ziji, what are you doing here?" Xiang Yu took the coat handed by Han Xin, put it on simply, and asked.

Yu Ziqi pondered for a while and said, "Brother Yu, it's something wrong in the south. ”

Han Xin saw that the two seemed to have something important to discuss, so he found an excuse to retire, but was stopped by Xiang Yu.

"The second brother is not an outsider, the child period, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

Yu Ziqi nodded and said in a deep voice; "A batch of armor we built from Hengshan County was robbed by Yingbu when we passed through the mouth of the Sanjiang River."

Xiang Yu's eyes widened angrily, and murderous intent appeared in his eyes, "It's this Yingbu again, didn't you beat him up last time." We don't mess with him, he's messing with us again. ”

The Yingbu in their mouths is a giant thief who crisscrosses several counties along the river. Last year, because Yingbu robbed a batch of money and silk sent to Wucheng by the Xiang family, Xiang Yu personally led the children of Jiangdong to pursue all the way, defeated Yingbu, and recaptured the money. Later, Xiang Liang was afraid of causing trouble, so he made peace talks with Yingbu and gave him a batch of money every month. As a condition, Yingbu also did not hijack caravans that had been marked by the Xiang family.

In the past year, there has been nothing wrong, but unexpectedly, Yingbu suddenly changed his mind and hijacked this batch of soldiers sent to Wucheng.

"Brother Yu, how should we deal with it?"

Xiang Yu sneered; "I want to see what this Yingbu has to do, and dare to provoke me Xiang Yu three times and twice."

"Ziji, immediately notify Liwei and Long Ji, and let them bring their sons and daughters to join me. The brothers have been recuperating for too long, and it is time to recuperate. ”

Yu Ziqi nodded, and said with some doubts; "But we just got on the line with Zhao Gao, if we come out of the nest. In case Zhao Gao needs our strength to help him do things, then how should we reply. ”

Xiang Yu waved his hand, "It's okay, just let Yingbu stay, our headquarters will not move, stay in Wucheng and hand it over to him for deployment." ”

looked at Han Xin with a smile and asked; "Second brother, would you like to go with your eldest brother?"

Han Xin arched his hand and said with a smile: "Follow the orders of the eldest brother." ”

Han Xin followed Xiang Yu and Yu Ziqi out of Wucheng, rode all the way to the west, and galloped along the south bank of the river for three days, and then arrived outside the agreed woods in the afternoon.

I saw Yu Ziqi take out a thing from his arms, put it to his mouth and blow it hard, and a sharp whistle sounded, like an eagle roaring, and like a kite.

It didn't take long to hear the same whistle in the woods, and I saw more than a dozen riders coming out of the woods.

The current two of them are both Xuan Yu and heroic, Han Xin thought that this should be the Liwei and Long He in Xiang Yu's mouth, but he couldn't tell who was who.

When everyone saw Xiang Yu saluting one after another, Xiang Yu smiled and exchanged a few words with everyone, and then introduced Han Xin to the two in advance, saying that he was his righteous brother who had just worshipped.

On the left is a seven-foot man wearing red light armor, with a temperament and charm that resembles Xiang Yu, and he knows that he is a bold man at a glance. He nodded to Han Xin with a smile, and Yu Ziqi on the side introduced him as Zhong Liwei.

Another handsome young man had a somewhat cold attitude, and when he saw Han Xin greeting him with a smile, he just nodded expressionlessly, with a proud expression. This time, it was Zhong Liwei who explained to Han Xin with a smile; "Don't pay attention to him, his nickname is Long Mutou, and he is just as cold to everyone, I really don't know if his wife is pregnant with his child."

Everyone laughed out loud, and the dragon only frowned, but he was not angry, and he thought that he was very familiar with each other.

A group of people surrounded Xiang Yu and returned to the woods, only to find that Han Xin found that a large number of people were already waiting there in the forest, and roughly calculated, there were about a thousand people.

Xiang Yu saw that it was getting late, and everyone had been running around for a few days, and the sleepless people were sleepy, so he ordered him to go down and camp in the woods tonight to rest, and then go on the road tomorrow.

At dawn the next day, a group of horses left the woods and headed for the post road, where scouts had already discovered the location of Yingbu's lair.

Han Xin saw such a large group of people running on the post road, but he didn't see the government come to ask, and he thought that Xiang Yu and the others had already taken care of the local government offices, and he couldn't help but feel a little strange in his heart.

Daqin is really not good, and the local county governance is so erosive. The powerful stand side by side, bandits are everywhere, but they are afraid of the majesty of the first emperor, and no one dares to openly raise the anti-flag.

It seems that what Zhang Liang said is not made up, once the first emperor dies, if the enthroned is not a promising king, then the Great Qin is likely to collapse, and the empire established by the sixth monarch is likely to be short-lived in the end.

Approaching Yingbu's lair, Xiang Yu also became cautious, and the scouts went around to find information. In the afternoon, he finally encountered Yingbu's men. The vanguard led by Long Ji was ambushed by thieves led by Yingbu himself at a gorge, and the scouts did not find any clues in advance.

Fortunately, Long and his martial arts are strong, and most of his subordinates are brave people in Chudi, plus Xiang Yu is very close, so he arrived in time to scare away Yingbu, which did not cause a big loss.

Yingbu used his actions to tell Xiang Yu and the others that he was not a docile rabbit.

Xiang Yu saw the dead and injured subordinates, but faintly showed a look of excitement. It seems that this Yingbu is not simple, he is a character, so he is worthy of being his opponent Xiang Yu.

Immediately retracted the people, Yingbu's troops tentatively attacked several times, but they were all repulsed. However, this Yingbu is also really good, and several sneak attacks failed to retreat with the help of the terrain of mountains, forests, rivers and rivers, leaving only dozens of corpses.

Yingbu saw that the sneak attack had no effect, but the loss was not small, so he simply withdrew to the old nest Qingfeng Village with all the men and horses, waiting for Xiang Yu to come.

At dusk the next day, Xiang Yu and others rushed to the front of Qingfeng Village.

Qingfeng Village is the old nest of Yingbu business for several years, built by the mountain and the water, the fence is surrounded by the round log with the thickness of the arm, there is an arrow tower and a shooting tower on it, although it is simple, but it is undoubtedly an insurmountable barrier for Xiang Yu and others who are just light soldiers to go.

Xiang Yu saw that although Qingfeng Village was simple, but the construction layout was exquisite, surrounded by mountains on three sides, only the east side could be used by the brigade of people and horses to walk, but it was the gate of Yingbu. If you want to attack by force, whether you succeed or not, you will definitely suffer heavy casualties.

Thinking of this, Xiang Yu couldn't help frowning, so he had to set up a village in a forest outside the gate of the village. On the second day, he sent Zhong Liwei and Long He to take turns to scold in front of the village, but Yingbu just closed the door.

It's been three days, and Xiang Yu looked at the cottage that he couldn't attack for a long time, and his face was cloudy.

He knew in his heart that the dry food brought by his men was not much, and if he didn't capture it in another three days, he would have to retreat.

The dragon beside him showed impatience on his face, and said in a rough voice; "Brother Yu, it's not a way for us to go on like this, give me five hundred brothers, and I will definitely lay down the gate."

Xiang Yu frowned and reprimanded; "Even if you capture the walled gate, how many brothers will we kill and wound. The blood of my Chudi heroes is prepared for the great cause of opposing Qin, how can it be shed in vain in such a small place. ”

Long He didn't know this truth, but he was really aggrieved in his heart, so he had to swing his spear and slam it to the ground to vent the boredom in his heart.

Yu Ziqi groaned; "It's better to choose the elite, sneak down from the back mountain, and suddenly attack at night, and take the gate of the village together."

Xiang Yu shook his head and said; "I've thought about this for a long time, you see, is there a bare barren area in front of the fence. If we send someone to sneak down from the mountains, but there is nowhere to hide, we will inevitably be discovered by the people in the village, and we will lose the lives of our brothers in vain. ”

"It seems that this Yingbu is indeed a talent." Xiang Yu showed an appreciative look in his eyes.

Han Xin looked at Xiang Yu with some surprise, although he had always admired Xiang Yu's heroism, but in his heart he still classified him as the kind of fierce general who was strong in martial arts but acted recklessly. Today is the first time I have discovered his meticulous side, and it seems that this big brother is indeed a hero.

Xiang Yu saw Han Xin looking at him with a thoughtful look. Thinking that this second brother was thoughtful, maybe he would pay attention, so he asked with a smile; "Second brother, do you have any good ideas?"

The dragon on the side showed a look of disdain, and Zhong Liwei didn't think so. Both of them knew that Han Xin was just a chick and had not experienced any actual combat, so it was a little funny to hear Xiang Yu ask him his idea.

Han Xin pondered for a while, and then didn't go back directly, but asked Xiang Yu a question that seemed unrelated.

"Big brother, do you say that we are in a hurry now, or is Yingbu in a hurry."

The dragon on the side laughed dumbly; "Needless to say, of course we are in a hurry. As long as he Yingbu is a turtle with a shrunken head in the village, we have no choice but to withdraw from the army. ”

Han Xin shook his head, "I think he should be in a more urgent hurry than us." ”

"Oh?" Xiang Yu was slightly stunned, with an interested look on his face, "Second brother, let's listen to it." ”

Han Xin said with a smile; "In the past few days, I have asked Brother Yu a lot about Yingbu's deeds, and I have a general understanding of his character. He was born as a prisoner in Lishan, and most of his subordinates were unruly rogue thieves, and the reason why Yingbu was able to subdue these people was because of his strength and prestige. ”

"Big brother, you guys come from a family, and you may not know much about the psychology of these mustard heroes. They compare each other with a ruthless fight, whoever has a big fist and who has a hard fist is the boss, and there will never be too many die-hard people. The reason why Yingbu was able to dominate the banks of the river was because of his prestige gained by his repeated victories, so that many small forces depended on him. Now he has been defeated several times, and he is blocked by us at the door of his house and does not dare to come out to fight. His prestige must have plummeted, and his franchise was expected to be more centrifuged. ”

Han Xin spread his hands and said with a relaxed expression; "On the other hand, if we can't beat it, we will go home at most, and we have nothing to lose. That's why I said that Yingbu is more anxious than we are. This time, even Long He nodded secretly, thinking that Han Xin's analysis really made sense.

Han Xin smiled again and said, "So Yingbu doesn't want to fight, he really wants to fight." The reason why he closed his door and refused to fight was that we were too strong, and he could not see any hope of victory. ”

Xiang Yu laughed, and immediately understood what Han Xin meant. "I see, let's go and show Yingbu the hope of victory."
