Chapter 815: Thorn Tuo (Medium)
Outside the tent, the black banner representing the general is erected high, gorgeous and solemn, showing the majesty and nobility of the commander of the army.
Before he could get closer, Xiang Ji saw hundreds of heavily armed Qin guards outside the tent from a distance.
These people can be generals and short soldiers, they are all carefully selected, all of them are more than eight feet tall, their eyes are shining, and they are sharp soldiers in the army at a glance.
"One-on-one, they're not my opponents, but if the number goes up, it's going to be troublesome."
Xiang Ji was secretly vigilant.
Although he has the courage to do so, his two fists are hard to beat with four hands, let alone so many well-equipped and well-equipped sharp pawns who know how to cooperate with the battle array.
Once there is a head-on conflict, Xiang Ji may be able to kill several people, or even more than ten people, with his bravery, but the final outcome must be to die of hatred.
"Fortunately, I chose to assassinate, bypassing these short-handed guards, and I can directly attack Zhao Tuo."
"My household registration verification is all legal things that Jing Tong and the Liu family spent money to get from the Xutai County government, which are thousands of miles apart, no matter how they check it, they can't find a flaw."
"Since I joined the army, I have made great achievements one after another, Zhao Tuo must not have imagined that I, the five hundred masters of the Qin army who killed King Luo, would be the remnant of the Xiang clan that he wanted, hehehe, this thief should be killed here today!"
Xiang Ji sneered in his heart.
It's just that before he could get into the account, he encountered his first problem.
"Remove your weapon before you can enter the account."
A short-bearded Qin general with a long face and thin eyes guarded the door, and after skipping Han Xin, who was in the lead, he spoke coldly to Xiang Ji and the others who were following behind.
Xiahou Baby.
This person is a close general of General Zhao Tuo, who is in charge of the army's guards.
Remove the weapon?
Xiang Ji looked at Han Xin in front of him.
This is obviously not needed, Han Xin didn't unload his sword.
Xiang Ji quickly reacted.
Differences in status.
Han Xin is a disciple brought out by Zhao Tuo, and he is a senior Qin general whose title has reached the rank of Zuo Shuchang, and his reliability is beyond doubt, and he naturally does not need to unload his sword when he enters and exits the handsome tent.
How could they, the lower-level generals, be treated the same as Han Xin.
At this time, Liu Bang, Zhang Bei, Guan Zhong and others who were traveling with them had already untied their weapons from their waists and handed them to the short soldiers next to them.
Xiang Ji's face was as usual, and he unsheathed his sword and handed it over.
Seeing this scene, Xiahou Ying nodded, waved his hand, and let them enter the account.
Xiang Ji breathed a sigh of relief.
He had anticipated the possibility of being disarmed before entering the account, and had prepared accordingly.
In his armor, a dagger was hidden.
It was not a divine blade, it was a bronze dagger that he had captured from the Yue people and secretly hidden.
Its quality was far inferior to Qin Jun's machete, but it was enough for Xiang Ji, as long as he was given a chance, a bronze weapon could still kill Zhao Tuo.
The only thing Xiang Ji is worried about is that he is afraid of being searched.
Fortunately, they are meritorious soldiers in the army, and generally speaking, they will not be subjected to body searches, which is unlikely.
As he thought, when he entered the account, he only unloaded the sword, and did not search his body, so that Xiang Ji smoothly entered the handsome tent with a dagger, and was one step closer to Zhao Tuo.
Things went smoothly, all the things he was worried about didn't happen, Xiang Ji was excited, and felt that God was really helping him.
It wasn't until he entered the tent and saw the distribution of the people in the tent that his mood became solemn.
Zhao Tuo, who Xiang Ji longed to kill day and night, was sitting in the middle of the handsome tent, wearing armor and a crown on his head, looking at them with a calm face.
On the seats on the left and right sides of Zhao Tuo, it was not Li Shiqi and other scribe staff that Xiang Ji had guessed before, but two strong and burly generals.
Fan Xu.
Cao Shen.
In addition, behind Zhao Tuo, there was also a young Qin general with bronzed skin.
Mei Kai.
The three brave generals surrounded Zhao Tuo, wearing armor and weapons at their waists, looking majestic and mighty.
As for Li Shiqi, he was sitting under Cao Shen's hand and was looking at them with interest.
The seating distribution in front of him made Xiang Jixin's head covered with a shadow, and he always felt wrong, not like a normal way of sitting.
This configuration is not easy to use.
"There is still a chance, as long as Liu Bang makes a move to assassinate Li Shiqi, Fan Xu, Cao Shen and others will definitely instinctively go forward to stop Liu Bang, and even Na Mei will be attracted to it. At this time, if I make another move, I can directly take Zhao Tuo and pierce his throat with a sword! It's a surprise! ”
Xiang Ji's thoughts flashed through his mind, and at the same time he stepped forward to bow down and salute Zhao Tuo.
"Subordinate Liu Yu, meet the general."
"Subordinate Liu Bang, meet the general."
……
Zhao Tuo sat on the main seat, looking at the few people who fell down in the tent, and there was a strange feeling in his heart.
was worshiped by Han Gaozu and the overlord of Western Chu at the same time, this treatment can not be enjoyed by ordinary people.
"You and others are all meritorious soldiers in our army, no need to be polite, get up."
Zhao Tuo raised his hand and motioned for everyone to get up.
His gaze swept over Liu Bang and landed on Xiang Ji's young face, especially those strange eyes.
Heavy pupils!
This is really an extremely rare feature, even if Zhao Tuo is well-informed, it is the first time he has seen this kind of strange eyes.
"Liu Yu, I heard that you are brave, you once fought a giant elephant in Xiou, and won the head of King Luo among the ten thousand armies, your skills are not small."
As soon as Zhao Tuo opened his mouth, he praised the courage of Xiang Ji.
Xiang Ji listened to it in his ears, and his heart was happy.
Zhao Tuo, a thief, also knows how brave I am?
Even if Xiang Ji hates Zhao Tuo and can't wait to eat his flesh and skin, Xiang Ji also admires Zhao Tuo's meritorious achievements. was recognized by such a figure in public, and he suddenly felt happy in his heart.
This Zhao Tuo has a good vision.
Xiang Ji arched his hand and said: "The general has praised it falsely, and the subordinate is just a vulgar soldier, thanks to the general's use of soldiers like a god, and the plan of the Yue people, he has the opportunity to make this contribution." ”
Seeing Xiang Ji's modesty, Zhao Tuo smiled, too lazy to say some more nonsense, and as soon as his voice changed, he went straight to the topic.
"Liu Yu, I see that you have a vision in your eyes, I don't know why?"
As soon as the words came out, everyone's eyes fell on Xiang Ji's face, staring at his eyes.
Xiang Ji's face turned red.
The joy brought by Zhao Tuo's appreciation just now was all replaced by humiliation and anger.
Impudent thief!
Xiang Ji secretly scolded in his heart, and said: "The general knows that this is an eye disease that the subordinates are born with, but it is difficult to treat it for those who seek medical treatment. ”
"So it's an eye disease?"
The corners of Zhao Tuo's mouth hooked slightly, and said: "When I first saw your eyes, I thought it was some kind of vision." Li Sheng, I heard that there were people like this in ancient times, but I can't remember who it was. ”
Li Shiqi responded: "Back to the general, it is said that the ancient holy king Yu Shun is one eye and two eyes, called the double pupil, and the folk rumors say that this is the appearance of the holy king." ”
The faces of the generals in the tent changed slightly.
Liu Bang swallowed his saliva fiercely and said secretly: "Heavy pupils? It's amazing that such ugly eyes still have such a background! ”
Xiang Ji became the focus of attention at this moment, which was completely different from what he had thought before.
Everyone is looking at him, how can this be stabbed?
There is also Zhao Tuo, a thief, is there something wrong with his brain, how can he always talk about things with other people's eyes.
Xiang Ji helplessly explained: "The subordinates are from a despicable family in the countryside, and I have never heard of the heavy pupil, and the lowliness of the subordinate officials will not be this kind of vision, but they are born with eye diseases, and the general is asked to see it." ”
Seeing Xiang Ji's face was ashamed, he explained weakly.
The smile on the corner of Zhao Tuo's mouth was even worse, he didn't plan to let go of the other party, and sighed in public: "It turned out to be an eye disease, so there's no problem." But I look at her like an old friend. ”
Old friend?
Xiang Ji is a spirit, could it be that Zhao Tuo can see it?
In order to continue to disguise his identity, he could only bow his head and not answer, pretending to listen.
Zhao Tuo didn't care about him, and said to himself: "The first time I met the old man was in the main hall of the Qin Palace, when I was Lang Wei next to the emperor, and the old man was the deputy envoy who came to sacrifice land and sue for peace on behalf of the Chu State......"
Listening to Zhao Tuo's narration, Xiang Ji only felt angry in his heart.
He didn't know that the old man Zhao Tuo said was his father Xiang Qu.
Is it because the father and son look too similar, and Zhao Tuo saw the clues?
Talking about his eyes first, then talking about his appearance and old people, Zhao Tuo's words are constantly approaching his identity.
Xiang Ji estimated that if he continued like this, he would probably have his identity exposed, or even if he had already been exposed.
We can't wait any longer, the longer it drags on, the more troublesome it becomes.
So far, I can only take a risk!
He tilted his head slightly, looked at Liu Bang, and released a signal to the other party to make a move.
Liu Bang blinked, pretending not to know, and his body didn't move.
Xiang Ji's face was shocked.
What's going on with Liu Bang, is the chain falling at this critical moment?
The small movements of the two were clearly seen by Zhao Tuo.
Zhao Tuo felt funny in his heart, and while continuing to tell the story of him and the old man of the Xiang family, he looked at Han Xin and nodded at him.
Han Xin understood, coughed twice at Liu Bang, and glanced at the same time.
Liu Bang received the signal, no longer hesitated, and suddenly screamed and rushed in the direction where Li Shiqi was.
All of this is detailed, but it happened in a very short time.
When Xiang Ji saw Liu Bang do it, he didn't have time to think about it, and he didn't want to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Just when Fan Hao and Cao Shen were shocked by Liu Bang's movements, they stood up and wanted to pounce on Liu Bang.
Xiang Ji jerked his hand into his armor and pulled out a dagger.
"Zhao Tuo traitor, suffer death!"
