Hearing what his uncle said, Xiang Yu stood up from his seat and waved to the dancers to signal them to go down. After all the dancers had retreated, he pulled out the saber from his waist. Zhitian began to dance.

This act of dancing swords to cheer up wine was extremely popular at that time. Of course, sometimes the sword dancer would be a young girl, which would make it look even more beautiful.When Fusu was in Shangjun, he also saw many people dancing swords at the banquet. They were either quick or clever, but Fusu felt that their sword dance was not used to kill the enemy on the battlefield.But as soon as he saw Xiang Yu's sword dance, Fu Su knew what a beautiful and practical sword dance was.

The long sword flickered in Xiang Yu's hands, suddenly like a breeze and sometimes like lightning, when there was a breeze, there was no sound, but when there was lightning, there was loud thunder, and Fusu was dumbfounded by being able to dance a sword into two completely different states .Suddenly Xiang Yu yelled, and his figure moved faster, making Fusu feel that the upstairs is full of sword lights, and the sound of the long sword piercing through the air is all around his ears. Just when Fusu was greatly admired by this move, Xiang Yu's movements changed again, he stopped suddenly, and then threw the long sword into the air.Fusu was taken aback by his sudden stop, and now seeing him throwing the long sword in the air and reaching for the wine glass, he even opened his mouth to scream.I saw that Xiang Yu took a cup and drank the wine, and then turned his body to the side. The long sword just fell from above, but when he heard the sound of "敪", the long sword penetrated into the scabbard around his waist impartially. among.

This last move completely stunned Fusu. This move required not only strength of hand, but also courage and timing. It took a long time for Fusu to recover from the shock just now.At this time, Xiang Liang asked from the side: "You two, how do you see Yu'er's sword dance?" Dance with satisfaction.

Yu Fulong on the side nodded repeatedly and said: "Okay, I have seen many people's sword dances, but it is really one of them to be like General Xiang Yu, especially the final closing momentum is even more shocking and inexplicable." He drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, but he used the wine to suppress his shock, because the sword light that filled the building just now made him terrified, and he was afraid that Xiang Yu would suddenly assassinate himself with his sword dance.

Fusu could also see the worry in Yu Fulong's heart, so he quickly took up the topic and said: "Just because of General Xiang Yu's good sword dance, I dare to say that the people on the battlefield are the opponents of General Xiang Yu."

When Xiang Yu heard that, his face beamed with joy. After all, he was just a young man, and he didn't have any city mansion. Hearing people's affirmation of him, his face naturally showed the feeling in his heart.When Fusu saw him, he had a good impression of Xiang Yu. This man is a man of true temperament, and he is worthy of the praise that the people of the country have given him for thousands of years.

At this time, Xiang Liang said in a year: "Look at Zhou Changshi is also a martial artist, why don't you dance a part and let me see it later?"

Upon hearing this, Fu Su quickly waved his hands and said, "If there were no jewels and jade from General Xiang Yu in front, the lower officials would still show their ugliness, but now it is better to hide their ugliness than to hide their clumsiness." He laughed self-deprecatingly.

"It's better to show your ugliness than to hide your clumsiness. Zhou Changshi is really eloquent. In this case, Zhou Changshi will show your literary talent and comment on Yu'er's sword dance with poems." He saw that Fusu had been talking in words just now. Suppressing himself, so he took advantage of the problem and wanted to suppress Fusu.

How could Fusu know how to compose poems? He thought about it, but when he saw Xiang Liang's mocking face, he became angry, so he began to think hard. After a while, he thought of a few suitable sentences, and opened his mouth and said: " Like a Yi shooting nine sunsets, as delicate as a group of emperors and dragons soaring. Come like a thunder to absorb the wrath, and stop like the river and sea to condense the clear light." These few lines are from the famous poem "Watching Gongsun Da Niang's Disciples Dancing Swords" by Du Fu, a famous poet in the Tang Dynasty. Su used to memorize it when he was in school, but now he used it for emergency.

As soon as these poems were uttered, the smile on Xiang Liang's face disappeared, replaced by a look of surprise. He never imagined that this young-looking Chang Shi could say such beautiful lines, and with The dance my nephew just performed was so appropriate.Although at this time, martial arts were valued over literature, Chu people have always passed on their literary style to the world, and Xiang Liang did not avoid this, so his contempt for Fusu suddenly became an emphasis.He recited twice in his mouth, "Yuan is like Yi shooting nine sunsets, delicate like a group of emperors and dragons soaring. Coming like thunder, receiving wrath, and stopping like rivers and seas congealing and clearing light." Then he said, "Okay, it's really a good poem. This poem once De Yu'er's sword dance is about to fade."

Fusu didn't expect that he could have such a great power in stealing the poems of the sage of poetry, but felt a little embarrassed, and hurriedly declared that he didn't dare.On the other side, Yu Fulong also had a qualitative improvement in his opinion of Fusu, and he has decided to make good use of Fusu.

From then on, there were less verbal arguments at the banquet, and more conversations with friends, and Xiang Liang also had the intention to attract Su Fu, and no longer bossed him around when talking to him.After the banquet was over, Xiang Liang said to Fusu and the two of them: "Prefect Yu, Zhou Changshi, the dancers who came up to dance for fun just now were sent to you by the order of the King of Chu. I will send them to the two of you." How is your residence?"

Yu Fulong hurriedly said: "I'm just a surrender, how dare I be so honorable. It's a great blessing to be entertained by General Xiang today, how dare I want beautiful women from Chu?" He knew in his heart that these dancers might It was the spies or even killers that Chu people placed beside him, and he didn't dare to ask them to live in the same room with him.

Fusu also resolutely refused to accept it, Xiang Liang had no choice but to give up when he saw it.

After getting out of the wine hug, Yu Fulong invited Fusu to get in the car with him, but Fusu felt that he had drunk too much and declined, so he walked slowly along the long street to his residence alone.Not long after he walked, someone called him from behind: "Young Master Zhou, please go slowly." Fusu stopped when he heard the sound, and turned around to look, but it was Xiang Liang who was chasing him from behind.He looked at Xiang Liang strangely and said, "Is there anything else for General Xiang?"

Xiang Liang came to Fusu, looked at him carefully and said, "Young Master Zhou is both civil and military, why do you want to make a long history in this small city of Jiujiang? When he was showing his strengths. I didn’t want Mr. Zhou’s talents to be buried, so I came here to persuade you.” While speaking, he didn’t call himself a general, but called himself a subordinate, let alone Fusu Zhou Changshi. Take son.

Hearing what he said, Fusu thought it was funny, but he didn't expect that he came here to dig a corner.If I were really just a young man with good learning, I might have listened to Xiang Liang and defected to them, but I am not an ordinary person. I still have an army of hundreds of thousands in my hands, and my identity It is still the Qin people that the Chu people hate the most, and the prince of the Qin people, of course it is impossible to defect to the Chu people.So he said with a smile: "I'm just a famous person, but the prefect Yu was promoted to an important position in the history. He really has the kindness to me, so I won't abandon him and vote for another one. I hope General Xiang can understand. .”

Hearing that Fusu was not moved by his words, the respect in Xiang Liang's eyes went even further, and he said, "Actually, Eunuch Yu is already a subject of my Great Chu, and since the young master is his subordinate, he is naturally a subject of my Chu State, why bother?" Do you have to help him?"

Fusu knew that it would be embarrassing to refuse him face to face, so he said: "The general, let me think about it."

Xiang Liang smiled and nodded and said: "Tomorrow Japan will return to Kuaiji County. Once Mr. Zhou wants to work for me, I, Xiang Liang, will definitely open the door and wait." After saying that, he cupped his hands and left.

After Fusu watched him leave, he sighed lightly, he was also afraid that if the other party was unsatisfactory, it would be bad for him.

Early the next morning, Xiang Liang led the army back to rest and wait for the next time to expand the territory, while Xiang Yu stayed in Jiujiang City as said at the banquet, and besides him, [-] elites from Chu State also accompanied him stayed together.

There is no war in the southeast for the time being, but the battle in the Central Plains has just begun.Together with the Baiban Company, Zhang Han sent 15 troops to attack the newly rebuilt Handan City by Zhao Ren.This army, with 8 horses brought by Zhang Han as the main force, launched an attack from Shangdang, while Baiban's tens of thousands of horses set off from Taiyuan County, trying to conquer Julu County, which had been occupied by the Zhao people, and then attack it. Attack Handan from behind.Zhang Han's army was well-trained and well-equipped, so the newly built Zhao army, which broke out of the city outside Handan to meet the enemy, beat them so hard that they dared not go out of the city again.Zhang Han's name spread throughout the Central Plains overnight, and people finally knew that there was such a powerful general in the Qin army.But Bai Ban's army encountered a lot of trouble when they attacked Julu County.

Relying on their familiarity with the local geography, the Zhao people always launched sneak attacks on the Qin army with a small group of troops in the mountains. Often before the Qin soldiers began to encircle and suppress them, they scattered and fled. Once the army ignored them, they would Then they harassed the supply troops, and after fighting each other like cats and mice for a long time, the Baiban army finally reached Julu, the governor of Julu County, but their morale had been greatly reduced at this time.When Bai Ban saw it, he knew that he couldn't attack the Julu immediately, so he changed the attack to a siege, surrounded the Julu first, and then thought of a way.

The Zhao people in Handan feared that Bai Ban and Zhang Han would attack back and forth. Now that Bai Ban's army has been dragged in Julu, they are more at ease. The walls of Handan City are thick and high, not tens of thousands of horses can break through In addition, the food inside was well prepared, so Zhang Han's army could not attack it.

Just when Zhang Han tried his best to capture Handan City, the situation in Xianyang City was changing, and the contradiction between Hu Hai and Zhao Gao began to be fully aroused.
