From a small soldier in the frontier army, an immortal god of war was born

After three rounds of drinks, a square-faced man in his thirties next to Xiang Yu patted him on the shoulder, then stood up and walked out of the tent.

"uncle?"

Xiang Yu looked at his uncle Xiang Liang who was leaving quietly, frowned slightly, but still drank the wine in the glass, then stood up and followed.

After Xiang Liang walked out of the tent, he did not stop, but went directly to a secluded place, turned around, put his hands behind his back, and looked solemn.

"Uncle, why did you call me..." Xiang Yu was confused.

Xiang Liang lowered his voice and said, "Yu'er, Danyang City was captured an hour ago."

"The city is broken?"

Xiang Yu was slightly stunned and very surprised.

You have to know that Danyang is where the Ma family is stationed. How could this family, which is on par with the Xiang family, only lasted half a month in Danyang?

According to his original estimate, even if the city was captured, it would take at least until next month. How come it fell so quickly?
"The urgent report just now did not specify the specific battle situation, but it is certain that Danyang has been completely lost."

"What about Ma Quan?"

Xiang Yu suddenly remembered that Ma Quan had also set out for Danyang a few days ago.

"Dead, shot dead on the spot by champion Hou Wu Fengdeng."

Xiang Liang's words surprised him again. Although Ma Quan was not as good as himself, he was also a demon-like existence. Even he was not sure if he could kill him, but he died directly at the hands of Wu Fengdeng!

Xiang Yu's eyes focused, and then his breathing quickened, his heart quickly filled with excitement and high will to fight.

Wu Fengdeng is indeed a strong rival!
Perhaps seeing the burning ambition in his eyes, Xiang Liang smiled bitterly and said, "Yu'er, don't worry, he will come here to fight you soon. What I want to talk to you about today is about this."

"Uncle, please tell me. I am in my prime now. I am confident that I can defeat Wu Fengdeng!"

"Haha, it's great that you have such faith. Today, my uncle will introduce you to a senior."

Xiang Liang smiled, then turned around and said respectfully to the bright moon in the sky: "Sir Wangshu, you finally showed up."

As soon as he finished speaking, a female figure suddenly appeared in Xiang Yu's vision. She had long flowing hair and was wearing a blue and purple silk dress. She was immersed in the moonlight, as dreamy and beautiful as a fairy.

Wangshu descended, and only then did Xiang Yu realize that she had no facial features, or rather, her face was obscured by a hazy halo and her features could not be seen.

Even so, her temperament is one of the most beautiful in the world.

However, in Xiang Yu's eyes, this kind of beauty had a very dangerous taste of death, which made him frown.

What does the Yin-Yang School god have to do with this matter?
As a native of Chu, Xiang Yu was quite familiar with the Yin-Yang School. After all, it originated in Chu, and the names of all gods were also their Chu mythology.

Especially since the demise of Zhao State, Yin Yang's family moved back to Chu State and had closer contacts with officials and aristocratic families in the court.

However, Xiang Yu was not interested in them, and Wangshu's appearance at this time also made him feel confused.

"General Xiang, Young Master Xiang."

Wangshu's voice was cold and he remained silent after a simple response. Instead, Xiang Liang continued, "Yu'er, this is the high-level god of the Yin-Yang family, His Excellency Wangshu."

"What I am going to talk about today is related to the Yin-Yang School."

After saying this, a hazy ball of light floated in Wangshu’s hand.

Boom~
In an instant, Xiang Yu's face changed drastically, all the hair on his body stood up, his domineering aura suddenly burst out, and he retreated several steps, even holding the spear in his hand.

"This thing is too dangerous!"

He just took a look and felt as if all the life force in his body was drained away in an instant, which shocked him greatly.

"Uncle, what does this mean?"

"Yu'er, don't be nervous."

Xiang Liang smiled slightly and said, "Lord Wangshu has no hostility towards me. This is a hidden weapon she made specially. You will be able to use it in the future."

"Uncle, please tell me clearly." Xiang Yu never let down his guard.

"In short, Wu Fengdeng will come to support the Qin army soon. At that time, you two will definitely have a decisive battle. Uncle hopes that you can kill him in the duel. If it is difficult, you can use this thing, which will definitely make Wu Fengdeng unable to return!"

"Of course, uncle has no doubts about your ability, he just wants to increase your confidence."

Hearing this, Xiang Yu also understood what was going on. He immediately showed a slight sneer on his face, stared at Xiang Liang and said, "Uncle, do you mean to let my nephew use it to attack Wu Fengdeng?"

"It can't be called a sneak attack. This hidden weapon is not disposable. After use, it can be placed under the moonlight to be used again. It can be regarded as a weapon given to you."

"Ah."

Xiang Yu shook his head and said, "Uncle, a real man should act in an upright manner. I disdain these unorthodox ways to harm others. Please rest assured that I have the strength to kill Wu Fengdeng!"

Since it is a duel, it must be fair. Xiang Yu has always despised these despicable means.

Seeing that he refused so straightforwardly, Xiang Liang frowned and said, "Yu'er, this is a battlefield! All is fair in war, how can you harm others secretly?"

"Wu Fengdeng is a capable man. Even Ma Quan was shot dead by him in the first battle, which shows his potential. Uncle did this for your safety."

This is true. Ma Quan's death shows that Wu Fengdeng really has the strength to rival Xiang Yu, so he will also be in danger.

Under such circumstances, the Xiang family must make preparations early and never allow the risk of following in the footsteps of the Ma family!

Xiang Yu was stubborn and said in a deep voice: "My nephew is not made of clay. Fighting with the strong is what I want all my life. If I wanted to be sure of nothing, I would not come to this battlefield."

"Nonsense! As the young master of the Xiang family and a minister of Chu, how can you act on impulse?"

"Even if you don't consider yourself, what if you let Wu Fengdeng escape this time? If he grows up again in the future, won't he be a great threat to our Great Chu?"

"Then why don't you just kill him!"

Xiang Yu shouted louder than Xiang Liang, then looked at Wangshu and sneered, "Since you all set the goal of killing Wu Fengdeng, why do you need my help? As a Zhenwu realm, it shouldn't be difficult to kill him!"

Wangshu was not angry at being offended by him, but said coldly: "I am busy with affairs and cannot spare you. If Young Master Xiang is unwilling, then forget it."

"I won't send you far."

"Lord Wangshu!"

Xiang Liang glared at him fiercely and hurried forward to stop Wangshu: "My nephew is too stubborn, please don't mind it!"

"Wu Fengdeng is the common enemy of our Great Chu and the Yin-Yang family. We must kill him here in this battle. I have made up my mind. I hope Your Excellency Shu will not worry too much."

"I don't like to force people to do things that are difficult for me, General Xiang, there is no need to say more."

Wangshu's voice was even colder, which made Xiang Liang even more anxious. He bent over and spoke a lot in a deep voice, and finally there were some signs of easing.

Then he walked up to Xiang Yu and sternly rebuked him: "Yu'er, don't be willful! This battle and the fate of our Chu are at stake. You can't be willful!"

Xiang Yu looked at him deeply, his face showing some annoyance. He said without compromise: "Uncle, no matter how much you say, it's useless. I have always despised those despicable means, and I will never use my reputation to do dirty things."

"I will personally kill Wu Fengdeng, but from now on, please don't mention the Yin-Yang family in front of me. Others may be afraid of them, but I am not!"

After saying this, he turned around and left without paying any attention to Xiang Liang's angry glare. Before leaving, he did not forget to say, "Uncle, you should go and discuss future strategic countermeasures with Grandpa as soon as possible."

"Yu'er!"

...After leaving this place, Xiang Yu's face was obviously gloomy. He did not return to the tent to continue drinking, but came to a river bank and looked at the silent river.

The water sparkled under the moonlight, and the fragmented light shone on his face, his eyes were unusually firm.

lol~
At this moment, footsteps were heard and a graceful figure walked up cautiously.

She was wearing light armor and long gown used for logistics, and had a pure and charming appearance. It was Yu Miaoxi.

After the last conscription in Yujia Town, Yu Miaoxi learned that her two brothers were serving in the Xiang Family Army and had been sent to garrison at Yunjing Mountain.

In order to find out their current safety, she joined Xiang Yu's army and went to war as a handyman. On weekdays, she just washed clothes and cooked in the barracks, which was considered to be the best she could do.

After a few days of contact, the two of them became familiar with each other.

"Young Master Xiang, the banquet hasn't even ended yet, why are you wandering here in a trance?" she asked puzzled.

Xiang Yu glanced at her, and finally spoke out his true feelings in this quiet atmosphere.

"Strong men are rare, how can you harm them with despicable means! A real man born in this world should march forward courageously, only in this way can he live up to the teachings of his ancestors."

"If you prepare despicable means in order to be absolutely sure, it is contrary to the ancestral teachings. How can you expect to reach the pinnacle of martial arts?"

Yu Miaoxi was stunned, not understanding what Xiang Yu meant at all, but that was precisely why he expressed his true feelings like this.

She paused, then said, "Although I don't understand what you mean, you are definitely right."

"How can you be so sure?"

"Because Young Master Xiang is the most heroic person I have ever seen. He has the power to swallow up mountains and rivers. I admire him and regard him as a god."

As she spoke, her thoughts unconsciously returned to the scene in Yujia Town that day when he held the huge tripod high in the air.

His tall and burly body stood between heaven and earth, holding up the huge tripod in his hands that even the flood had not washed away, and his handsome and resolute face looked like the majesty of heaven.

It is true that he is as strong as a mountain and as powerful as the world.

Xiang Yu had heard Yu Miaoxi's words many times. Over the past decade or so, countless people had praised him and admired him.

This is why he is so tired of red tape.

However, this time Xiang Yu could not hear any flattery in her voice. The girl had a bright face and her sincere and pure eyes were like the moonlight.

Quietly, he seemed touched.

"Master Xiang, why are you looking at me like this?"

……

Danyang City.

Wu Fengdeng slowly came back to his senses from his training state, and the red lotus fire on his body slowly retracted.

After two hours of practice, he finally recovered from the side effects of the blood rush.

It was already dawn.

"General Wu!"

At this time, Qiao Zhanbo hurried over from outside and said with a fist: "General Wang Jian invites you to the City Lord's Mansion to discuss matters!"

"Ah."

Wu Fengdeng nodded, and brought Jiang Qiyu to the City Lord's Mansion. The generals who were seated stood up one after another, bowed and clasped their fists to greet them.

"General Wu!"

At this moment, everyone except Wang Jian showed respect to him. Although they were all commanders, the importance of this Marquis of Champion far surpassed theirs.

He is already the second most important person in the entire army.

"You are welcome, no need to be polite."

Wu Fengdeng had no intention of greeting or declining the seat at this time, and simply sat down in the first seat under Wang Jian.

"Gentlemen."

When everyone was present, Wang Jianfang said slowly, "Now that Danyang County has been captured, our Great Qin's plan to destroy Chu can proceed to the next stage."

"However, unfortunately, Li Xin and his troops in the north have not yet conquered Yunjing Mountain. They are blocked by the Xiang family. And judging from what is described in the letter, the situation is not optimistic."

He paused for a moment, then said, "The biggest change was the young master of the Xiang clan, Xiang Yu."

"Xiang Yu..."

Except for Wu Fengdeng, all the generals looked at each other, and everyone had more or less suspicion and confusion on their faces.

Xiang Yu?

The person who dealt a heavy blow to Li Xin's subordinates during the last battle against Chu?

Don’t they already have a way to deal with it this time?
Wang Ben was more knowledgeable and continued, "Xiang Yu is the grandson of Xiang Yan. As far as I know, he is only nineteen years old this year. He has never been on the battlefield and there are few rumors about him."

"Father said that General Li still has no one to deal with?"

Wang Jian nodded: "Yes, now Xiang Yu has a combat power far beyond the Concealing Qi Realm, stronger than before. He killed two of my Qin generals in succession and severely injured many others. No one on Li Xin's side can match him."

"Because of this, the top combat forces are unable to break through, and the morale of the ground forces is also low due to this, so there has been no breakthrough so far. In fact, if it drags on, I'm afraid they will be driven back to Yingchuan County."

Hearing this, Wu Fengdeng finally understood the purpose of this meeting. He said, "Since Xiang Yu has no one to deal with, I will go."

He knew very well that he was the only one who could take on this mission and he could not shirk it, which was exactly why Ying Zheng wanted him to go on the expedition.

As for why he didn't follow Li Xin's subordinates from the beginning, he was also considering helping Wang Jian take Danyang first.

Wang Jian smiled and said, "General Wu is a man of few words. This is exactly what I am planning. After all, if Li Xin's side does not progress smoothly, we will become an isolated army and it will be difficult for us to continue in the future."

"General Wu, you will set out immediately, but you don't need to bring any troops with you. Li Xin has enough troops, so you only need to contain Xiang Yu."

"As ordered!"

Wu Fengdeng nodded in agreement and walked out with Jiang Qiyu.

Now that he is in a high position, he no longer needs to do trivial things. Everything is done according to the principle of efficiency, and no one dares to say anything.

"Qiyu, does your sword still have the blessing of Master Yisu?"

Jiang Qiyu nodded and said, "Yes, after the last time, Master left a trace of original spiritual energy. Even if there is a Zhenwu realm to deal with us, it can keep us alive."

After saying that, she seemed to realize something and looked up and asked, "Brother Fengdeng, do you think there will be an ambush on this trip?"

Wu Fengdeng said seriously: "It's hard to say. There are many people who want to kill us now. It's not difficult for the Chu army to guess our action of going to support them."

"If I were them, I would also do something on the road, or... do something to Xiang Yu. In short, there is a high probability that an accident will happen."

Jiang Qiyu pursed her lips, then held his hand tightly and said calmly: "Okay, I understand. I believe that if we are together, everything will be solved!" (End of this chapter)
