Chapter 344: Border City Crisis 2

Implement the plan now and come up with a result tonight so that we know how we deal with the situation on both sides next! ”

"If our plan succeeds tonight, we can disintegrate the strength of this 250,000-strong army, and even transform it into our companions, not only will the battle of Lingcheng end, but the garrison strength of the border city will also be multiplied, killing both sides with one stone!"

"And if the plan fails tonight - we will lead all the armies and cover each other to retreat to the border city - first stabilize the situation in the border city, and then delay the war and find a way to fight against Yingzheng!"

"Anyway, we can't wait any longer, we have to do something tonight!" Xiang Yu clenched his right fist and said with a firm gaze. "Indeed...... We don't have time to wait any longer......" Liu Bang looked at the resolute light in Xiang Yu's eyes, pondered for a while, and finally said slowly, "Since you have decided, you are the commander of the coalition forces—then we will act tonight!" ”

After getting Liu Bang's consent, the gaze in Xiang Yu's eyes became a little firmer. "Good!" Xiang Yu let out a loud sigh and turned to look at Ji Bu, "Ji Bu listens to the order." ”

"The last general!" Jibu immediately responded with a fist.

"Pass my military orders! Implement the battle plan against the 250,000-strong army of Lingcheng tonight! Most of the army entered a state of pre-battle and marching, and stayed where they were, waiting for orders at any time. The three regiments of the Hundred Beast Legion, Kui Wolf, Black Rhino, and Grizzly Bear guarded the mountain and forest defense line, and were ready to wait for new deployments. The Fourth Regiment of Fierce Eagle Regiment is on standby, and will attack the Mausoleum City with me at night tonight! ”

"The last general obeys," replied Jibu, and immediately turned to deliver the order. In this night when the song of the clouds is still fluttering, the coalition forces lurking in the mountains and forests have finally decided to dispatch. - "You...... Are you ......" Far away in the forest outside Xianyang Palace, Han Xin barely supported his scarred and wrapped body covered with medicinal cloth, but his eyes were staring at the man who was sitting on the branch of a big tree wearing a linen cloak, his expression was indescribably shocked, "You are the senior who saved me!" ”

Han Xin, on the other hand, stared at him in shock, yes, he had never seen this man in a sackcloth cloak, let alone what kind of face was covered under his cloak, but—the aura was too strong, too familiar. At the beginning of the Eagle Mountain Gorge, when Han Xin faced Bai Qi's interception, he was hooked out of his soul by Bai Qi with the awakened secret power "Soul Slayer", at that time, his body and soul were separated, and he was in a desperate situation and was unable to save himself, so he could only wait silently for Bai Qi to swing the death sickle. Han Xin is far from being an opponent of Tu Baiqi, and death is a very inevitable result.

However, Han Shin survived in the end, because at the moment when his life was close to death, the old and kind voice appeared, and it was because of the appearance of that voice, or the unknown person, that he supported Han Shin, who was about to fall to death. He promised to help Han Xin block Bai Qi for three minutes, and then he really did it to block Bai Qi for three minutes, fighting for Han Xin for the last chance of life, allowing him to finally cross the gap in Eagle Mountain Gorge, release signal flares, and even pick up a life that lasted for a long time. Although the person did not appear from beginning to end, Han Xin firmly remembered the voice with a low breath and a sea inside. That's the voice of the man sitting on the branch and wearing a sackcloth cloak! At this moment, he sat quietly on the branch, speaking concise and profound words, and his voice was like an invisible wave surging towards Han Xin from all directions at the same time, making Han Xin feel the aura of the vast sea again. Han Xin looked down at the medicine cloth he was wrapped in, recalled the various scars he had suffered when he entered Xianyang Palace alone, and suddenly looked up at the mysterious person sitting on the branch, paused, and asked, "Senior...... This time, did you save me again? "It doesn't matter if you can't save it or not, it's fate to see it, it's just a hand." The old man chuckled, and his voice poured towards Han Xin from all directions, making it impossible to tell where he was with his hearing.

I don't know what to say. "I'm a person who does things very casually, and I don't force it. Just as when I was in Eagle Mountain Gorge, I promised to help you block Bai Qi for three minutes, so I never made a move against Bai Qi, but only blocked him for three minutes. And as soon as the three minutes were up, I was gone, not a minute or a second—and you were able to escape in the end, and it was your own creation. ”

"But I'm still grateful to you, and without you, I wouldn't have survived these two times. The great grace of the seniors, Han Xin is toothless and unforgettable! Han Xin looked at the old man and said with a firm gaze. Scold...... Did I really save you? The old man smiled again and said slowly, "I just picked you up and threw you in the forest." But you broke into the heavily guarded and dangerous Xianyang Palace City alone, and in the end you were able to pick up a life, and you were thrown out of the city alive by Bai Qi - do you think who saved you? ”

Listening to the old man's words coming from all directions, Han Xin's pupils inadvertently condensed, memories surging in his mind, and his expression gradually became dull. And the old man found the answer for him first-"It's Wang Zhaojun-it's Wang Zhaojun who saved you—it's Wang Zhaojun!" ”

- "What's wrong with the border city?" What's wrong? Liu Bang stared at Xiang Yu and asked with an extremely serious gaze. When he heard Xiang Yu say that something had happened in the border city, his expression immediately became nervous, and Ji Bu, who was standing on the side, was also surprised and at a loss. Border Cities - The two border cities of Qin and Chu, Longshun City and Huyao City, are the first line of defense of the entire country in the face of the desolate ancient land, and they cannot be moved by any wind and waves.

This is the reason why Qin Chu always has to be prepared for danger in times of peace, even in the most peaceful times - crises have always lived by their side. The stability of the border cities is the foundation for the tranquility of the entire country. Beyond that border, we are facing an ancient land where countless wild monsters and monsters are inhabited - that is the power that can destroy the life of a country! Therefore, in fact, Xiang Yu and Liu Bang's coalition army this time was a very risky decision, because they were using the defenders of the border city to compete with Yingzheng! The garrison of the border city is empty, and the slightest carelessness will lead to problems with the safety of the border defense line.

But Xiang Yu and Liu Bang have no way out, they are really in a dilemma, no matter what, Yingzheng, the emperor of great sins, must be eliminated first. I can't understand the internal worries, what is the enemy outside? But in this way, it did bring the border city to the brink of danger, and at this time, the urgent report of the danger "See for yourself......

Xiang Yu was unable to elaborate further, so he only handed the letter to Liu Bang, "There is a crisis in the border city...... Liu Bang immediately took the letter and opened it to read it, Ji Bu was also anxious on the side, so he leaned over regardless of his identity and followed the content of the letter.

While watching, Liu Bang and Ji Bu's expressions became more and more shocked, "The Ancient Land is actually restless at this time!" Liu Bang couldn't help but be surprised, "However, in the border city now, don't say that you and I are not there, even the army has been transferred to the battlefield in the interior by us...... The border city is extremely empty, if something really happens, they can't hold it at all! ”

"Of course I can't hold it, but what can I do about the current situation...... Here in Lingcheng, maybe there will be a big battle after all, and our troops are already small, so we can't call back at all, and we can't go back......" Xiang Yu said in a deep voice, "The big problem of the border city, we can't deal with it now!" ”

"The misfortune of the country does not go alone...... Liu Bang sighed in a low voice, and then said, "Is this really the will of heaven to force us into such a dilemma?" "What's the use of saying that? I, Xiang Yu, don't believe in the will of God! Xiang Yu shouted in a low voice, and then fell silent again. His mood was also forced to the brink of an outburst at the moment. And Ji Bu stood aside, never daring to say anything, and now that the situation was so critical, he didn't dare to say anything more. The atmosphere suddenly became serious and silent. Indeed, they are being forced into a dilemma.

"I can only - take a gamble!" After being silent for a long time, Xiang Yu finally stared, clenched his fists, and said in a deep voice, "We'll implement the plan tonight!" ”

"What? But Zhang Liang, they haven't come back yet! Liu Bang said immediately. I know, but time doesn't allow us to delay—the border city is in danger, and it is impossible to wait for a massive invasion of ancient beasts. ”
