Competing

Chapter 100
At the same time that Yin Xunan was crossing the river, south of the river, the Chu army's rescue of Qi fell into a huge predicament.

At night, Yongqiu went to a certain riverside in Pengcheng to light a pile of bonfires, and the exhausted Chu army rested beside the fire.They were the Chu army under Xiang Yu who had fought in Yongqiu before, and they were returning to support Xiang Liang's troops who were going to Dingtao with all their strength at this time.

The dry firewood crackled and crackled, and sitting around the bonfire were senior military generals, Xiang Yu, Fan Zeng, Xiang Zhuang, Long Qi, Yu Ziqi, Chen Ping and others.

"Major General, eat something!"

"Xiang Zhuang, it's been a whole day, how can we do without water and rice? Saving the marshal requires physical strength to travel, doesn't it?"

Xiang Liang and Xiang Zhuang felt very heavy. Ever since they received the news that day, Xiang Liang led his army to Dingtao to rescue Qi, and King Huai of Chu sent Song Yi to support him.They felt a little uncomfortable, especially when the battle situation in Dingtao had worsened in the past few days, they were even more worried.In the past few days, the battle in Weidi ended in a hurry, and they rushed to Dingtao without stopping, and the people were exhausted along the way.Both Xiang Yu and Xiang Zhuang were so worried that they couldn't eat.

"Yu'er, Xiang Zhuang, eat something!" After Fan Zeng spoke, the two brothers reluctantly finished the food that Yu Ziqi handed over.

At this time, the subordinates came down to report that Pengcheng Jibu had sent an urgent letter, Chen Ping naturally got up to finish it, and after reading it, he couldn't help saying angrily: "Song Yi, this old man, is so disregarding the overall situation!"

Long Qi said: "How to say?"

The two brothers Xiang Yu and Xiang Zhuang put down the food in their hands at the same time, and Fan Zeng's eyes fell on Chen Ping.

Chen Pingdao: "Zhang Han transferred his troops to besiege the Marshal and Dingtao, but Tian Rong couldn't shrink back. He adjusted the price with me, Da Chu, and asked for a field leave before he would send troops to rescue. Song Yi actually persuaded King Huai What did you say about Tian Jia? After all, he was once the king of Qi, and it was unjust to flee to Da Chu to kill him. King Huai listened to him, so Tian Rong refused to send troops."

Yu Ziqi said angrily: "The marshal went to Dingtao to rescue his country of Qi, yet Tian Rong abandoned his allies." Speaking of this, everyone was filled with righteous indignation.

"What about Song Yi's reinforcements?" Xiang Zhuang asked eagerly, thinking about his father's safety very much.

Chen Ping explained: "Song Yi led his army north out of Pengcheng, and encountered some resistance from the Qin army, making it difficult to advance. General Ji Bu believes that Song Yi may have done it on purpose, and General Lu Chen has brought more than [-] troops with him Going to the rescue, the number of people is too small after all, if Song Yi's reinforcements don't arrive, the marshal is afraid that he will be in danger!"

"Ah!" Xiang Yu suddenly dropped the pottery bowl in his hand, and shouted angrily: "How dare Tian Rong bargain? For a dispensable farm holiday, he didn't save his uncle! Song Yi and Xiong Xin are nothing. Don’t save uncle because of field leave! You will die in the future!”

Xiang Yu's rage was completely reasonable, Tian Rong and Song Yi's actions completely ignored Xiang Liang, and they did things that harmed the interests of the country for the sake of grievances of the dead, regardless of the overall situation.That is to say, starting today, Xiang Yu hated them, and the tragic fate of Song Yi, Tian Rong, and Xiong Xin was doomed.

Chen Pingdao: "Our distance is too far, now we can only hope that the Marshal will support us for a few more days, or Song Yiliang will quickly go to the rescue if he finds out!"

Yu Ziqi sighed: "I don't know where Donglai is now? If he is here? Maybe we can rescue him in time!"

"Donglai is still in Hebei, there is no news." Xiang Zhuang shook his head feebly.

Long Qi couldn't help complaining: "Yin Xu is also true. If he didn't obey the order and died leading his troops to Hebei, the marshal's situation would not be so difficult."

What he said seemed out of place, Chen Ping couldn't help but feel his heart tighten, and his eyes fell on Xiang Yu.I saw Xiang Yu's fist tightened first, then relaxed, and said calmly: "This matter must not be blamed on Donglai, he is also thinking about the situation of the battle."

Fan Zeng, who had been silent all this time, coughed lightly, and said, "Everyone go to rest, and leave early tomorrow!"

After Fan Zeng spoke, everyone got up one after another, but Fan Zeng and Xiang Yu did not leave.Everyone knew that Old Mr. Fan had something to say to the Major General, perhaps he was the only one who could comfort him at this time, and he never stopped.Chen Ping looked up at the sky, saw the moon disappearing and the stars appearing, the stars were shining brightly, and his thoughts moved.Finding an excuse to stand behind a nearby camp, prick up your ears and listen intently.

"Mr. Fan?" After a long silence, Xiang Yu asked.

Fan Zeng looked up at the sky, was silent for a long time, then spoke reluctantly, and said sadly: "Yu'er, the Marshal may not be able to save him!"

Although the situation was critical, no one gave up. Chen Ping behind the tent was shocked. Fan Zeng was so sure that he was superior to others.Xiang Yu's heart was shaken, he fell to his knees suddenly, and choked up, "Mr. Fan...Uncle...Uncle?"

Fan Zeng focused on the starry sky, and couldn't bear to sigh: "The star is dimmed, it's almost dark, and it looks like it's falling down, Marshal... I hope you, Yu'er, are mentally prepared and can be strong!"

Xiang Yu couldn't help the wet eyes, choked up and said: "Mr. Fan, my father left early, my uncle raised me single-handedly, and treated me better than Xiang Zhuang. Uncle's suffering...I...I..."

Fan Zeng sighed: "Yu'er, you are deeply in love with the marshal's uncle and nephew. I look into your eyes, but fate is hard to break. Ever since I learned that the marshal's troops entered Dingtao, I feel uneasy. I have overestimated Song Yi's people." Good product, it would be nice if we returned to aid earlier!"

Xiang Yu shook his head, both of them fell into deep self-blame.After a long time, Fan Zengcai said: "No, the star represents your uncle and nephew. After the marshal passes away, Yuer, you will shine brilliantly. This is the destiny. The old man speaks bluntly. I hope you can be stronger and accept the reality. "

Xiang Yu nodded with difficulty, his progress and advancement were based on the pain of losing a loved one, and no one can easily accept such encounters.

"This is the destiny, the world is small and cannot be changed!" Fan Zengcheng sighed.Hearing this, Chen Ping couldn't help shaking his head, knowing that Xiang Liang must die, he felt a little sad.Not long after, Chu State and even Qi State would have a bloodbath... Just as he was about to leave, he heard Fan Zeng let out a groan, and there seemed to be too much surprise and surprise in his tone.

When Chen Ping was curious, Xiang Yu had already asked him a question: "Mr. Fan, what's wrong?"

Fan Zeng looked at the starry sky in disbelief, and said after a long time: "The general just now had a gleam of light, and it flashed with a small star in the north. It should be coming from the east!"

"Donglai?" When Chen Ping heard that it was about Yin Xu, he immediately pricked up his ears and listened attentively.

I only heard Fan Zeng say: "A few days ago, when he went to Hebei from the east, his little star disappeared and became dim. Just now, the old man observed carefully, and the sky at the junction of Qi and Zhao flashed a light, although it was gloomy but faint. Shenghui. Judging from the location, he should have come from the east, and he should have gotten rid of Dong Yi and returned to the south of the river."

Xiang Yu was pleasantly surprised in his heart, and quickly asked: "What about uncle?" Yin Xu's sudden return to the south gave Xiang Yu a glimmer of hope that maybe he could save his uncle's life.

Fan Zeng was silent for a while, then sighed: "It's hard to say now, the general's light flashes, maybe it's hope, maybe it's a return to light. If Donglai is in time, luck may be able to rescue the marshal... God's will is unpredictable, I can't see it!"

Fan Zeng looked at the bright starlight, each star was shining brightly.God's will is unpredictable, some will fall into the mortal world after one night, and some will shine brightly, no one can predict...
