Chapter Seventy-Six: The Divine Crossbow General
After Xiang Ye and Meng Su left Liu Bang's tent, the two walked side by side towards Xiang Ye's tent. As he walked, Xiang Ye turned his face to look at Meng Su, his eyes were a little complicated, as if he had something to say but couldn't say it.
"Why do you look at me like that?" Finding Xiang Ye looking at him, Meng Su lowered his head a little shyly and asked in a muttered voice.
"You slept in my tent last night?" Xiang Ye pondered for a moment before he opened his mouth to ask Meng Su.
Meng Su lowered his head, and after a long while, he nodded in response: "You were drunk last night, I was afraid that you would be thirsty, and then I was worried that the people who came to set the fire would not be good for you, so I did not go back to my camp." ”
After listening to Meng Su's explanation, Xiang Ye didn't speak again, just walked forward silently, but his heart set off turbulent waves.
He was so drunk that Monsu could have imagined that he would be thirsty, and that she could still consider his safety when someone went to the barracks to set fires. Xiang Ye was suddenly confused, he couldn't tell who he and Meng Su were protecting whom.
"General Xiang!" When Xiang Ye and Meng Su were about to arrive in front of the tent, Shi Lei led Li Xinpeng to greet him, and as soon as he saw Xiang Ye, he hurriedly pulled Li Xinpeng to introduce him: "We have been waiting for you for a long time, this is a little brother I met yesterday, he is really skilled, and he fought with me, but he didn't distinguish the winner or loser, and he specially brought an introduction to the general." ”
"Oh?" Xiang Ye looked at Li Xinpeng from head to toe with a look of surprise, and shook his head, he didn't quite believe what Shi Lei said, the young man in front of him was seventeen or eighteen years old at most, and he didn't look very strong, how could he have such good fist and foot kung fu?
He has seen Shi Lei's fist and foot kung fu, even if Liu Bang's army is turned over, there will never be more than a slap in the face that can fight him to a draw.
Seeing Xiang Ye's expression with doubts, Shi Lei was a little anxious, he stepped forward, pulled Xiang Ye with one hand, and pointed at his face with the other hand and said: "Don't believe it, look at this, and this, it's all beaten by this kid, damn it, the kid is not big, and his fists are hard!" ”
As he spoke, Shi Lei let go of Xiang Ye's hand, turned around and was about to take off his pants and pout his ass to show him: "And on my ass, I was kicked twice by this kid...... Ah! ”
Shi Lei's pants hadn't been pulled off yet, and he had been kicked by Xiang Ye firmly on his buttocks, and he was kicked forward several steps, fell to the ground, and fell to the mud.
After falling, he rolled over, sat on the ground and stared at Xiang Ye with his eyes wide and shouted, "Why are you kicking me?" ”
"Why did you kick you?" Xiang Ye glared back at Shi Lei and scolded: "I'll kill you shameless thing, can you casually pick up that thing for people to see?" I was beaten like a panda, I don't know how to be ashamed and ugly, and I ran over to show me your ass, I'm damn it! Why are you three points thicker than the city walls? ”
"Ugh!" Shi Lei was stunned for a long time by Xiang Ye's scolding, sitting on the ground stupidly poking and poking at a loss of knowing how to defend himself.
Xiang Ye didn't dare to talk back when he saw that Shi Lei was scolded, walked up to Li Xinpeng, patted him on the shoulder, pointed at Shi Lei and asked, "The injury on that kid's face was really beaten by you?" ”
Li Xinpeng first looked at Shi Lei, then nodded heavily and replied: "General Hui, General Shi's injuries were indeed beaten by me, and I was also injured, don't believe me to show you!" ”
As he spoke, he had to follow Shi Lei's example and untie his armor and lift his clothes.
Seeing that Li Xinpeng also looked heartless, Xiang Ye suddenly had a black line, and hurriedly pressed his hand that was unarmouring and said, "Okay, okay, I'll know if you see the blue and purple on your face." Shi Lei's fists and kicks are already very remarkable, if you can have a draw with him, you must not be far behind, follow me in the future. ”
"Then what kind of official are you going to give me?" Hearing Xiang Ye say that he wanted to follow him, Li Xinpeng suddenly became excited, and hurriedly said: "It's best to make me a general, and I can also lead troops to fight in the future, haha!" ”
At this time, Shi Lei had already gotten up from the ground, walked behind Li Xinpeng, raised his slap to the back of his head, and scolded and said, "Fart general!" Our General Xiang is still in name only, give you a general, you will be beautiful. In the future, you will follow me to be a big soldier, and make sure you have wine and meat! ”
"Ugh!" When Li Xinpeng heard that he couldn't be a general, he rolled his eyes depressedly, pouted and said, "You ...... in the field yesterday."
As soon as he said the words "in the field", Shi Lei hurriedly reached out to cover his mouth, and raised his foot to kick his ass and scolded: "If you talk nonsense again, if you talk nonsense, I will chop you and feed the pigs!" ”
Seeing that Li Xinpeng had just said the words "in the wilderness", Shi Lei looked like he had done something bad and was afraid of being exposed, and Xiang Ye and Meng Su were a little curious.
Xiang Ye glared at Shi Lei and ordered, "Let go of your hand and let him speak!" ”
Although Shi Lei came to the barracks with Xiang Ye, except for Meng Su, he and Xiang Ye were the only ones in the entire barracks who had the closest relationship, but if Xiang Ye became serious, he was still a little jealous, so he had to let go of the hand covering Li Xinpeng's mouth, glared at Li Xinpeng, and stood aside.
"What did he do in the wilderness? What did I tell you again? Xiang Ye asked Li Xinpeng with a serious expression.
"General Shi was in the field yesterday with a woman in the wild, and I broke it, he wanted to kill people and fight with me. Later, when he saw that he couldn't beat me, he said that he wanted to recommend me to General Xiang, so I came with him. Li Xinpeng is also honest, although Shi Lei glared at him and blew his beard on the side, but he still explained to Xiang Ye about Shi Lei and Lu Pheasant's affair like pouring beans into a bamboo tube.
"With a woman?" After listening to Li Xinpeng's words, Xiang Ye frowned and glared at Shi Lei, he suddenly had an ominous feeling, except for Liu Bang and some generals with their families in the barracks, ordinary officers and soldiers were not allowed to bring their families with their families.
Although these family members were served by handmaids, the army controlled them very strictly, and they were not allowed to leave the barracks even half a step when they were stationed. The woman who was with Shi Lei Ye was most likely the family of a certain general, and if that was the case, when the matter spread, they would be in big trouble.
Thinking of this, Xiang Ye pulled Li Xinpeng over and said to him: "General Shi didn't lie to you, you follow me, be my personal soldier first, and when you have military achievements, I will recommend you to Pei Gong, don't mention this matter to anyone in the future, you know?" ”
Li Xinpeng nodded as if he didn't understand, although he was the famous general Li Mu, but since he was born, he has always grown up in the countryside, and he usually comes into contact with some simple villagers, so he naturally won't be as complicated as Xiang Ye. Since Xiang Ye had already said that he would recommend him to Pei Gong if he had military exploits in the future, he had no reason not to follow Xiang Ye.
No matter how simple a person is, he has a desire for power in his bones. The difference is just that some people are more depressed, while others are more obvious.
Li Xinpeng naturally has a desire for power, being a general like Li Mu has been his dream since he was a child, since the bright future is in front of him, how can he let it go?
At the behest of Xiang Ye, Shi Lei took Li Xinpeng back to his original team. After conveying Xiang Ye's order to transfer Li Xinpeng to the centurion, they returned to Xiang Ye and continued to advance westward with the army.
On this day, the speed of the army's advance was very fast, and Xiang Yu couldn't hold back his excitement after learning the news that Zhang Han was in Puyang from Liu Bang, urging the army to speed up the pace of march and fight Zhang Han outside Puyang City.
Liu Bang's army was still falling behind, looking at the aggressive Chu army in front, Xiang Ye couldn't help but think of Xiang Qing and Xiang Tong. I couldn't help but feel sad in my heart.
"The Qin army is coming!" The army was advancing slowly, and just as Xiang Ye was sleepy on horseback, a panicked shout behind him shook him.
He hurriedly turned around, only to see a black and oppressive Qin army appear on the side of the road, and a member of the Qin generals rushed towards the Chu army with a crossbow arrow while holding a crossbow arrow.
Every time the Qin general shot a crossbow arrow, a Chu army would cry miserably and fall to the ground holding his forehead.
Seeing those Chu soldiers who fell to the ground, Xiang Ye couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his spine. Every crossbow arrow shot by the Qin general was impartially shot at the center of the Chu army's eyebrows, and all the crossbow arrows penetrated from the center of the eyebrows and then from the back of the head, and even the strength was almost identical.
"Whoosh" A crossbow arrow flew towards Xiang Ye with a strong wind, and the position was exactly towards Xiang Ye's eyebrows.
The speed of the crossbow arrow was extremely fast, Xiang Ye hurriedly leaned over to dodge, and the crossbow arrow flew past the back of his head, shooting the deflector on Xiang Ye's side off the horse.
Xiang Ye avoided the crossbow arrows, and the Qin generals who rushed towards the Chu army were also taken aback. Picked up the crossbow again and shot at Xiang Ye.
This time, Xiang Ye had already prepared, and when the crossbow arrows flew towards him, he took out his long sword, waved it in front of him, and picked the flying crossbow arrows aside.
"Kill!" Seeing that the two crossbow arrows were all shot empty, General Qin put away the crossbow, drew his spear from behind his back and waved it forward, and took the lead in urging the war horse to kill the Chu army.
The two Chu generals saw that General Qin was killing with a gun, and hurriedly rode their horses to meet them.
The three horses were staggered, and I saw that Qin pulled the spear, first made a fancy play, and then sent it forward, shouting "Get off the horse!" A member of Chu will be caught off guard.
Another member of the Chu General saw his companion fall off the horse, and the long halberd in his hand stabbed towards the waist of the Qin general, this halberd was pierced quickly and ruthlessly, seeing that the Qin general was already unavoidable, he was about to be picked under the halberd. Even if it was Xiang Ye, when he saw this scene, he couldn't help but sweat for the Qin general, if it was replaced by himself at this time, he really couldn't think of any other way to crack it except to abandon the horse.
A scene that everyone didn't expect happened at this moment, not only did the Qin general not abandon the horse, but instead raised his head and exposed the key points under the halberd, with a spear in his hand, he spun around his head and shouted again: "Dismount!" ”
