Legends in Chu and Han - C314
Chen Ping volunteered himself and accepted the mission, attracting the attention of all the generals present. Originally, Chen Ping was a high-ranking officer in the Chu Army and a strategist, who had offered many times to Xiang Yu, but he was helpless against Xiang Yu’s actions, he had not used it, but because he recommended Han Xin, he had suffered great losses to the Hangu Pass, and because of the fire ambush he suffered during the previous attack on the Allied Army Camp, the Chu Army denounced him for delaying the opportunity, which resulted in him not being able to kill the Allies in time. However, this time, because of his subordinate Sima Mao’s surrender, he had a rather large opinion on him, so the seats in the hall was arranged for him.
“General Chen is willing to go?” Fan Zeng looked at Chen Ping and asked with a fake smile.
The moment he said calmly, “As generals, we should consider the righteousness and supremacy of the Chu Nation. This time, when we go to the Xianyang and meet with Long Tianyu and the various allied armies, it looks like we are just sending them a letter, but we did not fulfill the letter we sent earlier, which caused the Alliance to be very annoyed with the Chu Army. Now that we are going to deliver the letter, the reality is that we have to master all of their plans, allowing them to put down their guard and go to the feast.
Fan Zeng thought about it carefully, and felt that Chen Ping’s words were reasonable. He wanted to invite the Dragon Army and the various loyal soldiers to the Great Clan, but it was a great deal of knowledge, and the weak strategists could not even speak after seeing Long Tianyu, the general had gone to the Xianyang, so with just a few words, he revealed his intentions. Although the Hong Gate banquet did not have any good intentions, and his trump card was to use Yueyao and Ji Yu to threaten Long Tianyu, in exchange for the eastern half of the mountain, it was not possible for him to completely enrage the Dragon Army.
“Does anyone have any objections?” Or think of a better candidate? ” Fan Zeng then asked the generals and advisers present, but other people were already a little afraid of Xianyang, after Chen Ping analyzed everything, they felt that he was more suitable.
The corner of Chen Ping’s mouth raised into a smile. “With me, Chen Ping, in the past, you Chu Army should just wait to be slaughtered, good birds choose trees to live on, no men should be allowed to live here, if not men should be allowed to live here, it would be better for us to go to the lord’s side instead of encountering a talent like this.”
Xiang Yu looked at Chen Ping, and said indifferently: “Since there are no objections, then General Chen Ping will be responsible for this time’s entry into the Xianyang as an envoy. No matter what, we must convince the allied forces and Long Tianyu to enter the Hongmen Banquet, and cooperate with us in the implementation of our plan to split the world, after this is done, we can let bygones be bygones, and can even be promoted to the next position!”
He knelt on one knee, thumping his chest as he promised, “I will live up to Overlord’s expectations. As for Long Tianyu and the other leaders of the allied armies, I, Chen Ping, will definitely bring them to Hong Men for a banquet. I will cooperate with the general and his military strategy.”
Fan Zeng squinted his eyes, his gaze was as sharp as a sword, as though he had his own guesses. He stared at Chen Ping for a good while, then laughed lightly: “Let’s not delay this any further, General Chen will immediately enter the Xianyang with peace and discussion, and see what his intentions are, whether it is love for the river or love for the beauties, both want Long Tianyu to personally attend the feast. Also, warn him, if he dares to play any tricks, just wait for the Lady Wu Yu’s corpse.”
Chen Ping accepted the order, went out to pack up, and prepared to enter the city to meet Long Tianyu, his heart was filled with anticipation.
… ….
Outside Xianyang City, a group of thousands of cavalry soldiers rode on dust.
A Academy Officer in the city gate tower shouted: “Who are you?”
One of the vanguard cavalry generals said: “I am General Zhou Bo’s vanguard, Chai Wu, and General Zhou Chang on the right. I have come to Xianyang to seek an audience with Pei Gong.
“Vanguard General Chai Wu, Right General Zhou Chang?” Xiahou Ying and Zhang Yun who had come to patrol the city gate heard the shouts outside, and immediately went up to the city gate tower. Looking down, he shouted, “General Zhou Chang, Chai Wu, how are you guys?”
“General Xiahou?” Chai Wu was shocked when he saw Xiahou Ying’s figure, but at the same time, Zhou Chang rushed forward and laughed: “Xiahou Ying, how have you been? Quickly open the city gates, we want to see our lord.
The city gate opened, and Xiahou Ying, Zhou Chang, Chai Wu and Zhou Chang, the two vanguard generals from the rear, saw each other, laughed and scolded: “How come you guys just came, and missed the few big battles, yesterday you fought against Chu Army’s hundred thousand men, and formed a river of blood and a pile of bones, what a great surprise!”
Zhou Chang sat on the horse and shook his head: “Sigh, we are acting as reinforcements, of course we are not as pleased as you guys, we can follow by Master’s side and go to war with him, we have only fought a few battles with the scattered Qin Army and we have not done anything yet. Let me tell you, although the training time for this gathering of one hundred thousand reinforcements is not long, but they are all strong and strong, and their fighting strength is not much weaker than your black-armoured armors. Humph, I have a chance of letting you guys experience the power of our army.”
laughed: Of course there’s a chance, Chu Army has retreated to defend the Lantian City, and is about to fight with the Dragon Army for the Central Plains. Master was worrying about the lack of manpower, and now it’s time for General Zhou Bo and his reinforcements to arrive in time to gather.
was practicing his sword in the courtyard, releasing cold light in all directions. The sword beams were like rainbows and many sword curtains wrapped around the figure of a person, moving like a swimming dragon. It was Long Tianyu.
The two peerless beauties, Pure Yu Wan’er and Yi Yi Yi were watching the sword from the sidelines, enjoying the scene. The sword art had reached the limit of the human body, and the light blue sword qi suffused the air, making sizzling sounds.
Xiahou Ying, Zhou Chang and the rest did not dare to disturb Master from practicing his sword skills, they stood quietly at the side, looking at the dazzling sword technique in front of him, their hearts were filled with shock, Master’s Sword Truth has truly reached the Grandmaster Realm.
After a while, Long Tianyu retracted his sword, took the towel Su Zi gave him and wiped the sweat on his forehead, sheathed his sword and said: “Just a little more, and I can finally comprehend a new sword intent. Unfortunately, there seems to be something missing, which is different from what I thought last night.
“Master, General Zhou Chang and General Chai Wu requests an audience.” Xiahou Ying said from the side.
Long Tianyu turned around and smiled, nodding: “The reinforcements have finally arrived. Where is General Zhou Bo?”
Zhou Chang felt honored and replied: “Reporting to my lord, General Zhou Bo has already passed the trial and is currently marching between Lintong and Lishan. In four hours, we will arrive at the Weishui’s riverbank and the bottom of the Xianyang City.”
Long Tianyu nodded his head and said: “Wonderful, at present the Xianyang is basically stable and has more than enough defenses, but my offense is insufficient, my troop is insufficient, so I am unable to intimidate the various dukes, everything is ready, and I am waiting for Zhou Bo to bring reinforcements over. Haha, it is finally time to chase a deer and bring about the start of the battle between Chu and Han.”
The generals were confused by the last two lines, trying their best to understand the meaning of the Chu and Han dispute. Just then, Ge Li walked into the courtyard and said respectfully: “Master, there is an envoy of the Chu Army outside the city that has come to negotiate. She was brought to the entrance by the guards, and called herself Chen Ping.
Long Tianyu’s expression changed, and he cried out: Chen Ping? “Quick, invite him in!”
