Chu and Han contend for the throne

Chapter 365
Huanglongdang is just the most common section of the Zishui River, but it is destined to become a historic site that will go down in history!
The reason why Han Xin chose to meet Xiang Zhuang at Huanglongdang was entirely because Huanglongdang was surrounded by wilderness and had a wide field of vision. Neither the Chu army nor the Qi army could lay ambushes on both sides of the Zishui River. There are sufficient guarantees for the safety of the monarchs on both sides, of course, the main thing is that the safety of Han Xin can be guaranteed.

Just after the application time, Han Xin and Xiang Zhuang appeared on both sides of Huanglongdang with hundreds of relatives each.

It was the beginning of September at this time, and the climate in Qidi had gradually turned colder, and the sun in the sky was not so harsh. The sun shining on the body only made people feel warm and warm.

A hundred steps away from the river bank, Xiang Zhuang suddenly raised his right hand.

Jin Xiang, Hu Yan, and hundreds of relatives who followed behind them reined in their horses and stopped. You Yuan, who was among the ordinary soldiers, instinctively squinted his right eye and looked at Han Xin on the other side of the Zishui River. The distance was still a bit far. Shooting a cold arrow at this distance, the possibility of hitting Han Xin is less than half, and it is even more difficult to shoot Han Xin.

Stopping the accompanying soldiers and generals behind him, Xiang Zhuang lightly pushed the reins again, and the Wuzhi horse flicked its four hooves again, and walked slowly towards the Zishui East River. Almost at the same time, Han Xin on the other side also stopped. Riding together with them, riding alone to the Zishui West River, amidst the sound of light horseshoes, the two of them quickly walked to the Zishui River.

The width of the Zishui River in Huanglongdang is less than [-] feet. Standing on the east bank of the Zishui River, Xiang Zhuang can clearly see that Han Xin did not carry any weapons, let alone bows and arrows. Of course, Xiang Zhuang He didn't worry about Han Xin carrying weapons at all. With Han Xin's meager martial arts skills, it was wishful thinking to shoot Xiang Zhuang.

Han Xin also saw very clearly that Xiangzhuang on the other side also did not carry any weapons.

At that moment, Han Xin gave a shallow bow and said, "The king of Chu is indeed a man of faith. I am very pleased."

Xiang Zhuang smiled slightly, cupped his hands and said, "The king of Qi is indeed extraordinary, and he is worthy of the reputation of being a military strategist."

"Fairy of a military strategist? The King of Chu is over-reputed." Han Xin smiled lightly, and said, "If it is possible, I really want to become friends with you, King of Chu. It's a pity that good fortune tricks people and let you and I fight each other on the battlefield. See you, I'm really sorry." With just this one conversation, Han Xin has already discovered that Xiang Zhuang is definitely not a brave and foolhardy man like Long Qie.

It seems that it is not easy to repeat the good show of flooding the Chu army in Weishui.

"King Qi, in fact, we have every chance to become true friends." Xiang Zhuang's eyes were as sharp as a knife, he looked straight into Han Xin's eyes, and said word by word, "As long as King Qi puts aside the old grievances and grievances in the past, we will be together." If the ten prefectures of the land are merged into Dachu, then the widow can guarantee to share the world with you, and from this point on, the Han and Han surnames will take turns to be kings and brothers forever."

There was a trace of anger on Han Xin's face, but he quickly suppressed it.

So far, Han Xin is basically sure that Xiang Zhuang is a tough opponent with both wisdom and courage!
"People say that the king of Chu is not only excellent in martial arts, but also eloquent. I have learned the lesson today." Han Xin smiled and counterattacked tit-for-tat, "This sentence is exactly what I want to say to you. Ruo Chu Wang, if you can merge Bashu, Jingxiang and Jiangdong into Daqi, then the widow can face south with you and call you lonely."

"Haha." Xiang Zhuang looked up to the sky and said haha, "King Qi, the scenery here is beautiful."

"The scenery is not bad?" A cold light flashed in Han Xin's eyes, and his tone could not help but become colder, "The widow only sees the city being destroyed, the fertile land being trampled on, and the innocent people displaced. How can there be a good scenery?" ?”

"The widow also seems to have seen the flames of Zhao land and the people displaced?" Xiang Zhuang said, "King Qi, what you and I have done is basically the same, so there is no need to criticize each other. This is called big brother farewell." Say brother."

Han Xin was slightly suffocated when he heard the words, then he smiled again and said: "Well, I won't mention these things. Now that the widow has withdrawn his troops and returned to the country, can your army leave Qi? As long as the king of Chu is willing to retreat , I will not make it difficult for you, in addition to allowing all the checkpoints along the way to pass, I will also give away the food and grass needed by the army!"

Han Xin didn't think that Xiang Zhuang would accept his kindness, but if Xiang Zhuang could accept it, that would be the best.

Han Xin knew very well that from this moment on, the desperate struggle between him and Xiang Zhuang had already begun. He would never let the Chu army who invaded Qi escape, let alone let Xiang Zhuang return to Jiangdong alive!

"Hehe, I appreciate King Qi's kindness." Xiang Zhuang smiled slightly, and said, "I have disturbed you a lot since I came to Qi, so I am really sorry to bother you, but if your army can retreat ten miles, I would be very grateful if you allow our army to build a pontoon bridge at Huanglongdang so that the army can cross the river and return."

At this time, the Chu army was confronting the Qi army across the Zishui River. The marching route of crossing Weishui, Jiaoshui, Jiaodong and Langxie back to Huainan had been determined long ago. The reason why Xiang Zhuang told Han Xin that he would fight in Huanglong The purpose of the bridge is nothing more than to confuse Han Xin's vision, so as to create an opportunity for the Chu army to cross Weishui and win time.

"It's easy to say." Han Xin smiled all over his face, but sneered in his heart, building a bridge to cross the river in Huanglong?How dare she show her ugliness in front of the few people with her trivial tricks?

Xiang Zhuang talked happily with Han Xin, while hundreds of his relatives waited quietly a hundred paces away.

In the crowd, You Yuan held the seven-stone hard bow tightly in his left hand, and the wolf-fanged heavy arrow in his right hand, and cold sweat broke out in his palms.

Youyuan began to practice archery under the supervision of his mother from the age of five. At the age of 13, he went to the mountains alone to hunt. At the age of 15, he hunted down the first tiger. At the age of 17, he completed the feat of piercing through a tree with a hundred steps. His archery skills are unparalleled in the world. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to surpass the high school in archery when Jiuyuan was a senior colonel.

But now, Yuyuan is indeed a little nervous.

Because this time, what he wants to shoot is not a wolf or a tiger, but Han Xin, a great military strategist in the world!Thinking that Han Xin might die under his own arrow today, You Yuan felt extremely excited, but if he missed, then You Yuan would become the target of thousands of people. This is an excellent way to kill Han Xin Chance, and quite possibly the only chance.

Taking a few deep breaths, You Yuan tried his best to calm his heartbeat, and at the same time hinted to himself that his archery skills are unparalleled in the world, Han Xin, he is dead!

##########
Half an hour passed quickly, and both Han Xin and Xiang Zhuang felt that the time was almost up.

Xiang Zhuang bowed first, and said to Han Xin: "King Qi, why don't you come here today?"

"Forget it, let's talk about it another day." Han Xin smiled slightly, but he didn't move. The so-called guard against others is indispensable. It's not too late for him to turn around after Xiang Zhuang turns around. You need to know that Xiang Zhuang is a fierce general in the world. In case he was carrying some hidden weapon, it might be able to shoot through the thirty-foot-wide river and pose a threat to him.

How could Xiang Zhuang not know what Han Xinxin was thinking, so he reined in his horse and turned around immediately.

Seeing that Xiang Zhuang reined in his horse and turned around, Han Xin felt relieved, and followed him to turn around and prepare to leave. At this moment, Xiang Zhuang suddenly raised his right hand, and his outstretched fingers clenched into a fist.

##########
A hundred paces away, seeing Xiang Zhuang's gesture, Jin Xiang and Hu Yan, who stood in the front, reined in their horses hard, and the mounts under their crotches immediately gave way to the left and right sides, almost at the same time as they reined in sideways, You Yuan had already stood up on the horse's back, and as he exhaled, his hard bow, which was as strong as seven stones, opened in response.

On the west bank of the Zishui River, Cao Yu, who was also a hundred paces away from Han Xin, opened his eyes wide in an instant, and yelled in terror, "Be careful, your lord be careful..."

As soon as the voice fell, Youyuan had let go of his hand suddenly.

There was only a muffled buzzing sound, and the spiked heavy arrow on the string was shot out like a shooting star. The speed of the heavy spiked arrow shot by the seven-stone hard bow was beyond imagination, almost in an instant. In no time, the Spike's heavy arrow flew over a distance of more than 150 steps and hit Han Xin's vital point in the vest.

Xiang Zhuang didn't even have time to turn his head to look back, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw a flash of cold light, and Han Xin on the other side of the river groaned and fell off his horse.

"Your Majesty!"

"There are assassins!"

"Protect the king!"

"Fight with these nasty Chu barbarians!"

Seeing Han Xin fall from the horse, the imperial guards of the Qi army who were a hundred steps away exploded in an instant. Some of the imperial guards drew their bows and shot arrows at Xiangzhuang on the east bank of the Zishui River indiscriminately, while more people seemed to be crazy. His horse rushed forward and tried to rescue Han Xin. Su Weilang galloped Cao Yu forward while drawing his bow and firing arrows again and again, the arrows never leaving Xiangzhuang's vital points.

Xiang Zhuang raised his elbows and used the iron elbow guards on his wrists to block the arrows shot by Cao Yu, but turned his head excitedly and shouted: "Yu Yuankuai, hurry up and shoot Han Xin again!" , shoot Han Xin..."

At this moment, Xiang Zhuang really wanted to ride his horse across the river and wring Han Xin's neck with his own hands.

But Xiang Zhuang just thought about it in his head, Zishui was more than [-] feet wide, if he really dared to ride his horse across the river, he would definitely fall into the river in the end, and then be shot into a hedgehog by the swarming Qi army guards.

Without Xiang Zhuang's reminder, You Yuan had already pulled back the hard bow again.

After taking a breath, Youyuan shot two more arrows at Han Xin who had fallen to the ground on the other side. Youyuan's archery skills were really not blown out. With a distance of more than 150 steps, all three consecutive arrows hit the target, but because Han Xin fell to the ground, And it happened that his feet were facing the east bank, so the next two arrows only hit Han Xin's thigh.

After shooting three arrows, You Yuan's right hand drooped weakly.

The seven-stone hard bow is not a joke. Looking at the world, there will never be more than two hands who can pull the seven-stone hard bow. Even if You Yuan has extraordinary physical strength, after shooting three arrows, he will not be able to bear it. At this time, his I'm afraid he can't even hold an egg in his right hand, and he won't be able to hold the bow for at least half a month.
