Competing

Chapter 65 Introducing the Wolf
Yin Xu and Chen Ping found the grandson of King Huai, and news of Song Yi's involvement spread like wildfire.Of course, it also included the classic competition between Yin Xu and Ping Wu in Xihe Village, which spread far and wide as if it had grown wings.

The first person to get the news was Zhenze Mountain Villa in Kuaiji. It was hot in midsummer, and Fan Wenxuan always liked to sit by the lake and fish in the shade of green willows.

Footsteps sounded, Fan Yang came quickly, and was about to speak, but seeing his father making a silent expression, he had to stand aside quietly.

A quarter of an hour later, the buoy on the water suddenly sank. Fan Wenxuan stood up and quickly pulled up the fishing rod. A carp weighing several kilograms shook its tail and struggled non-stop.Fan Wenxuan took off the hook, put the carp into the fish basket, and said with a smile: "Look, you don't need to be impatient when fishing, you need patience to catch big fish!"

"Yes, the child has been educated!" Fan Yang could hear the meaning of his father's words.

Fan Wenxuan washed his hands by the lake and asked, "Is there any news from Jiujiang?"

Fan Yang nodded and said: "Yes, father, Song Yi got the news and rushed to escort him in time."

Ok!Fan Wenxuan smiled lightly: "The result?"

Fan Yang replied: "It has been decided to temporarily set up Xuyi as the capital, and we will jointly escort it with Song Yi and Yin Xu."

"Oh? Yin Xu is also going to escort?" Fan Wenxuan was very interested, as if he had expected it, and seemed a little surprised.

"Yes, Yin Xu insisted on closely guarding the grandson of King Huai. Song Yi didn't want to, so he sent his number one swordsman, Ping Wu, to fight Yin Xu. Yin Xu won, so he stayed."

Fan Wenxuan smiled and said, "Is Ping Wu a direct disciple of the Xiangfu family of the Mo family?"

"Yes, it is said that he is the outstanding person of the Xiangfu family in recent years. He was expelled from the gate for violating the gate rules and was taken in by Song Yi." Fan Yang admired his father more and more. thing.

"He was defeated by Yin Xu's sword?" Fan Wenxuan asked in a deep voice,

Fan Yang nodded: "Yes, Yin Xu's martial arts are very good, and the water-breaking sword given by his younger sister is even more powerful. It is said that Yin Xu forced Pingwu to retreat in a row that night. If Yin Xu didn't take the initiative to give up, I'm afraid..."

Fan Wenxuan lowered the hook into the water again, thought for a moment and shook his head: "Don't just look at the surface in everything, victory must be victory if you gain the upper hand? Weakness must be the one who retreats? Sometimes avoiding the edge and accepting the good is self-protection. It's all wisdom!"

Fan Yang nodded hesitantly: "Yes, the child understands!"

"What's the reaction from Pengcheng?" Fan Wenxuan nodded in satisfaction, either because he was satisfied with his son's attitude, or because there was someone else.

Fan Yang said: "It stands to reason that Pengcheng already knew about it, but the news hasn't come back yet. Zixiang Liang may have gone into a rage at this moment. Xuyi is a hub, and Song Yi has occupied it. I'm afraid he will have trouble sleeping and eating in the future."

"Well, let's see! Anything else?"

Fan Qing thought for a while and said, "By the way, that grandson of King Huai is young, but calm and calm, old and mature, and seems to be playing a balance between Yin Xu and Song Yi."

"Really? This is an unexpected harvest! It's just that if the balance is not well grasped, it will fall badly." Fan Wenxuan laughed, and continued: "Leave Song Yi and Qi's affairs to your third uncle Well, you go to the north."

Fan Yang was stunned, and questioned: "Huh? Father means Donghu? The foundation on Dingtao's side has always been taken care of by the elder himself. I'm afraid it's not appropriate to hand it over to the third uncle? Besides, Song Yi and Tian Rong , Tian Heng's input, can Third Uncle handle it well?"

Fan Wenxuan said: "That's natural. You don't have to worry about Dingtao's affairs. You can take care of it for your father. Besides, there is Yilan! Don't they always want rights? I'll give it to them. If they can do it well, then Seeing their skills, I can clean my ears for a few days. You go to the north to straighten out the relationship between Yan and Zhao. After the death of General Meng, the upper road in Shangjun can no longer be used. It can only be reopened in the east. It will be of great use. Furthermore, the business with the Xiongnu and Donghu has been suspended for a long time, which is not very good! It is almost autumn, and the Central Plains is full of wars, and there is a shortage of war horses!"

Fan Yang has been fascinated by his ears and eyes since he was a child, and he has assisted his father in running the business for many years. He immediately understood: "Father, don't worry, I will leave as soon as possible, and the things in the north will be settled. You and mother take care of your health."

"Well, be careful yourself and send the message back in time!" Fan Wenxuan couldn't help sighing softly as he saw his son's back going away.

At the same time, Xiang Liang, who was far away in Pengcheng, also let out a long sigh, holding in his hand the urgent letter sent by Yin Xu from Jiujiang.

"Uncle, what happened?" Xiang Yu asked worriedly.

Xiang Liang sadly handed over the letter, and Xiang Yu was also taken aback after reading it.Letters written by Chen Ping were circulated among the core figures of the Kuaiji Army.

"Hey, how did you manage to kill Song Yi?" Song Yi's sudden appearance was beyond everyone's expectation.

Xiang Bodao: "Song Yi has been entrenched in Jiangxia before, why did he suddenly appear in Jiujiang, just in time for General Yin and Master Chen to find Prince Xiong Xin?" This can be said to be the doubt in everyone's mind.

Ji Bu said: "The news must have been leaked somewhere, or it may be that Song Yi has been watching, the mantis is looking for the cicada, and the oriole is behind, reaping the benefits."

"Song Yi is a despicable villain at all. When the city was destroyed and the country was destroyed, he didn't want to serve the country and escape. Now tens of thousands of soldiers are recruited in Jiangxia, but they don't take the initiative to fight against Qin. Instead, they come to spoil our good deeds and hinder us. Ugh!"

"According to what Chen Ping said, Prince Xiong Xin obeyed Song Yiyan's advice. This is a serious matter!"

Long Qie said: "If you coerce the prince to command the princes, you will inevitably be constrained in the future, just look at his face."

Xiang Yu looked at the letter and corrected him: "Not necessarily, General Yin means that the crown prince seems to be very assertive, and he and Song Yi only see each other check and balance."

Fan Zeng, who had never spoken, smiled: "It's interesting!"

"The key point is that Prince Xiongxin's capital is hanging in Xuyi, and he will be enthroned there. Song Yi brought 4 horses there. The food and grass of our army are mainly transported from Huainan in the east of the Yangtze River and northward along Hangou. Xuyi is the hub. , the future supply of food and grass will inevitably be somewhat..." Yu Ziqi did not continue, but everyone understood what it meant for Xuyi to fall into Song Yi's hands.

Zhong Limo sighed: "Oh, it would be great if General Yin brought the prince back to Pengcheng by two or three days later."

Xiang Zhuang said: "General Yin has done his best. He only brought 300 troops. Song Yi has 5000 people. If the crown prince is unwilling to come, there is no way. Fight against Ping Wu."

"Fortunately, General Yin won!"

Xiang Zhuang shook his head: "Winning is also a narrow victory. Ping Wu is a rebel who was kicked out of the gate by the Mohist Guild. His swordsmanship and martial arts are extraordinary. Most of the Donglai will have to fight hard to narrowly win. It is very difficult!"

I don't know who came up with the words of "big rebellion": "I knew that the grandson of King Huai would not have looked for it, but now the crown prince didn't invite him. Instead, he lured wolves into the house and Song Yi came."

Fan Zeng, who had been silent like gold all this time, sneered and said, "What are you all afraid of? Since we are luring a wolf into the house, let's go to Xuyi and meet this wolf to see how capable he is."

Xiang Yu's majestic and deep voice sounded: "That's right, we started our army with eight thousand soldiers in Jiangdong, and we've come all the way to today. Will we be afraid of a little Song Yi?"

Xiang Liang listened for a long time, nodded and said resolutely: "Yes, go to Xuyi to meet Song Yi, and see what this wolf can do?"
