Chapter Eighty-Eight: Vigilant Xiang Yu
Ying Xuan rushed to the south city wall at a very fast speed.
Left behind by the Huaiyang army during the siege of the city, the chaotic battlefield has not been cleaned up.
The city gate that was damaged was also barely erected, and it took dozens of square logs behind it to hold on.
With such a crumbling appearance, if the other party is really an enemy, Ying Xuan has no confidence to stop it.
Standing on the city tower, Ying Xuan looked at the approaching smoke and dust in the distance.
The banner is gradually becoming clear.
Ying Xuan's constantly strengthened eyesight could already tell that it was a black flag.
I was happy in my heart, but I frowned.
It stands to reason that when the herald summons reinforcements, he should be the vanguard to open the way and bring the news back to Shouchun.
But the reinforcements have already arrived, why hasn't the herald come to report yet?
Ying Xuan paid a little attention.
I didn't rush to open the door to greet him, and stood quietly on the city tower and waited.
At this moment, the Huiji army is divided into three parts.
At the foreground is a horse chariot as the vanguard, and a majestic black flag representing Daqin is erected on its chariot.
They were followed by a small number of single-riders, numbering in the hundreds.
Behind them, there are ordinary Daqin soldiers, spearmen first, and sword-wielding sharps behind!
The crossbow phalanx hung far away, following unhurriedly.
The scouts who had stepped forward to ask had turned back.
"Report! The other party said that they were the county guards of Huiji County, Yin Tong, leading the troops! ”
"Come to solve the difficulties of Shouchun and help the son to quell the rebellion!"
Hearing the news, all the soldiers shouted happily.
"Reinforcements are coming!"
Ying Xuan, who was about to smile, suddenly froze.
"Wait? Huiji County? Yin Tong? ”
This familiar name instantly awakened Yingxuan's memory.
Isn't Yin Tong the county guard who was slaughtered when Xiang Liang got into trouble?
And this guy is stupid and trusts Xiang Liang very much, and tells Xiang Liang about the uprising in private!
Before being hacked to death by Xiang Yu, he still looked like he believed that he was a good brother with Xiang Liang!
He came to support, would he bring the Xiang family with him?
If that's the case, these people aren't necessarily reinforcements!
Ying Xuan suddenly frowned, and waved his hand to suppress the cheers of the soldiers.
As the opposing vanguard approached.
Ying Xuan saw a strong man from a distance, with a majestic figure and a burly face.
Sits on a black steed with a halberd in hand.
His eyes were wide open and he happened to be looking at him.
Ying Xuan immediately saw that this was the famous Chu Overlord through the ages! Xiang Yu!
I couldn't help but cover my face with a headache.
Reinforcements are not good, come on this guy!
Who knows if this is to save themselves or to themselves?
The root cause of the overthrow of Great Qin was the banner of the uprising raised by this clan and Chen Sheng and Wu Guang.
Since then, the prince and the prince have a kind of Xiangning, which has become the main theme of this land for thousands of years!
Ying Xuan had a headache, what kind of reinforcements is this! I'm afraid I'm here to help the rebels!
It didn't take long for the pair to rush to the city wall not far away.
Ying Xuan looked at the crossbow bolts that stopped outside the range of the crossbow arrows, and the county guard and the army.
Completely dead, how can there be reinforcements so guarded, don't think about it, they must be here to start an uprising.
Na Yin Tong stood in front of the battle and shouted at the city gate.
"The county guards Yin Tong! Meet the eldest son! ”
Although Ying Xuan already knew the details of the other party, he still said politely.
"The county guard is coming with a large army, why don't you attack from one side!"
"This son can also lead the army to rush out of the east gate and sweep away the rebels from both sides!"
Yin Tong laughed.
"The subordinates led 30,000 soldiers from Huiji County to come, and they will help Gongzi to quell the rebellion!"
"It's just that the soldiers are hurrying all the way, and they are already tired at the moment, so it is not suitable to fight immediately."
"Please also ask the prince to open the city gate and let us into the city for a while."
"After resting, you will definitely be able to go out of the city to quell the rebellion, and return Daqin to a peaceful and prosperous era!"
Ying Xuan frowned, you can't be a fool for me?
Such an anomaly will open the door for you.
But then, the Huiji army suddenly began to shout in unison.
"Please also son, open the city gate and let me wait to rest in the city!"
"Please also ask Childe to ......."
Ying Xuan raised his eyebrows, what does this mean.
Zhang Liang behind him stepped forward.
"Childe, I'm afraid this person is plotting against him! This is to provoke the people of the city to put pressure on you to open the city gates! ”
"If you don't open it, you are unkind and force the army to fight tired! And they took possession! ”
Ying Xuan nodded, but he turned around and looked at the city, where the streets were empty.
Not to mention putting pressure on him, the people of Shouchun don't know where to hide!
It was also a little funny at once.
Suddenly, Ying Xuan's brows furrowed slightly, and he had a good idea!
In the army of Huiji, the corners of Yin Tong's mouth were slightly upturned, this was all Xiang Liang's strategy.
With such a loud noise, see what reason Yingxuan has to stop the army from entering the city!
And Xiang Liang looked at Ying Xuan, who was standing at the head of the city with a handsome face and an elegant appearance, and suddenly frowned.
He doesn't look like a tyrannical person! It's really rumored that there are some rumors, that gentle and benevolent appearance.
Xiang Yu found that this son had been staring at him intentionally or unintentionally.
Could it be that you can see that there is something wrong with my Xiang clan?
Xiang Yu didn't dare to be careless at all, after all, no matter what the rumors were.
At this moment alone, he was able to personally lead the 30,000 people of the Huaiyang Army to capture such a majestic giant city at the age of only ten years.
That is also the inheritance of the first emperor's invincible spirit in the world!
No matter how it is, it should not be underestimated.
At this moment, a scout came from the east gate to report to Yin Tong.
"It has been determined that the more than 300 people hanging at the east gate are the entire Jing clan!"
"And there was another man, tied to the campfire and roasted! Looking at its appearance, the skin and flesh have been stripped away! ”
"I don't know how long it's been baked!"
Hearing this, everyone's faces were stunned, but they didn't expect that this seemingly elegant childish man in front of him would have such a vicious heart!
Yin Tong has never been on the battlefield, and he feels creepy when he hears this!
"This son is worse than the tyranny of the First Emperor!"
At this time, Xiang Liang raised his eyebrows and said in relief.
"Isn't that what we want?"
Yin Tong was stunned and reacted instantly, so it can be used to promote his own righteousness, which is very beneficial to himself!
Immediately laughed.
"Although such a person has the courage of a soldier, he has no heart for the world!"
Xiang Liang also said.
"That's right, how can such a person win the hearts and minds of the people?"
"People who have lived at the top of their power since childhood may be very good at taking advantage of it."
"But he doesn't understand the foundation of power!"
"Exterminate the Jing clan as soon as it comes up, this is to abandon the hearts of the people of Chu!"
"Compared with the First Emperor, it's really bad!"
Everyone present nodded, but Xiang Yu frowned and remained silent.
He found Ying Xuan looking at him several times, but every time he looked at him, he shifted his gaze, and there was a slight sigh on the corner of his mouth.
That kind of look seems to have seen through everything, full of indifference from above.
Like the sigh and regret of the strong for the future fate of an ignorant person!
This made him feel very uneasy.
Ying Xuan on the city wall frowned.
In this scenario, not allowing them to enter the city is directly equivalent to setting up tens of thousands of enemies.
If they are allowed to enter the city, Shouchun will change hands immediately!
Subsequently, they united with the old nobles and royal families of various countries to set off rebellions, but I am afraid that they will be worse than the Yue people.
Although Ying Xuan thought of a solution, the most critical step was stuck with Xiang Yu!
You must know that Xiang Yu in history was stubborn, narrow-minded, and advocating force.
The most important thing is that he lacks foresight, and his own move may make Xiang Liang and Yin Tong, who are resourceful and worried, suspicious.
But Xiang Yu is the kind of master who doesn't care, if he shouts to take the lead, he is afraid that he will lose his wife and lose his soldiers!
At this moment, nearly a hundred civilians ran into the city.
It was Ying Xuan who spent ten gold to send a message to a loyal citizen.
Let it recruit a hundred civilians to act.
He also sent another person to inform the Huaiyang County Guard and the County Lieutenant in Dongcheng that they were ready to attack at any time!
At this moment, there is no other way, Ying Xuan can only gamble, betting that Xiang Yu has no rights now, and Xiang Liang will not take the risk of changing his mind.
As long as the other party hesitates slightly, then you have room to play!
As soon as the people arrived at the door, they shouted.
"Childe! The reinforcements have worked hard, please open the door to greet them! ”
"That's right! Please also ask Childe to open the door for reinforcements! We've already killed too many people! ”
"Do you still want reinforcements, dragging their tired bodies to meet the rebels, and suffer the same casualties as we do?"
The loud voice reached the ears of people outside the city.
The corners of Yin Tong's mouth curled, and Xiang Liang was full of smiles.
This is basically close to what they predicted in the city.
Then they saw that Ying Xuan could only pull his face and shout.
"The soldiers of Huiji County are rushing to help, and they are indeed working hard!"
"Go into the city first and rest, that's inevitable!"
The voice came, and the gate under the city wall really began to move.
The people of the Xiang clan are excited, as long as they can enter the city, then Shouchun will be theirs!
The goal is about to be achieved.
Ying Xuan suddenly waved his hand to stop it.
"Wait! In order to prevent the army from disturbing the people of the city! ”
"Yin Tong County Guard! You go into the city first. ”
"Let's talk to the county guard of Huaiyang, the urban area assigned by the soldiers of the two counties."
"It's good to reduce the harassment of the people!"
This time, the people of the city did not speak.
The smile on Yin Tong's face froze on his face.
He was a little weak-hearted.
Just now he had a conversation with Ying Xuan, and he didn't even salute.
Now with public opinion, Yingxuan is forcibly pressed into the city.
Who knows what Yingxuan will do to herself!
When I thought of the guy at the East City Gate who wanted to die but couldn't.
Yin Tong shivered fiercely.
No, you can't go in alone.
He was about to shirk it.
But he didn't want to, but Xiang Liang on the side suddenly spoke.
"Yes! The county guard! Childe's words make sense! ”
"Why don't you go in first, and ask for more places for the Huiji generals!"
"Our soldiers are many! You can't all lie down on the street and rest! ”
Yin Tong's eyes suddenly widened with anger, and he wanted to scold this strategist who had always respected him.
But he didn't want to, and the children of the Xiang family behind him also echoed him.
Immediately after that, the whole army was led and shouted to let themselves into the city!
Yin Tong's heart instantly cooled by half.
This is how you lead them to revolt! This is obviously because he was framed in front of Xiang as a shield!
Xiang Liang was very happy at the moment.
The last difficulty of the original uprising was how to deal with this nominal leader!
Now Childe is directly helping.
Looking at his style of acting, Yin Tong will definitely not be good if he goes!
If Yin Tong can be eliminated with the hand of Ying Xuan, it will be perfect!
Everyone in the Huiji army was happy to hear about it.
Only Xiang Yu.
He stared at Ying Xuan tightly, and felt more and more that something was wrong.
He found that Ying Xuan looked at him after reading Yin Tong, and his eyes kept wandering on the two of them.
This made him more and more vigilant.
