Chapter 564: The Steady Xiang Yu
Because before this, Wu Qi accepted Ying Yuan's reward.
So in the eyes of other countries, it was equivalent to Wu Qi being recruited by Ying Yuan.
Now, when the Emperor of Xia and the Emperor of Qi realized that Wu Qi was not in Xianyang.
Everyone felt that something was wrong.
"Is Ying Yuan really going to attack the State of Chu? Why does he have to choose this time?"
"We've all been fooled by Emperor Qin!"
The two emperors never expected that they were just one step slower.
However, it was at this step that Emperor Qin was far ahead.
"We can't just watch the Chu State disappear like this. If we let the Qin State take over the Chu State's territory, who among the other nations will be able to stop it in the future?"
Emperor Jifa of Qi became deeply worried.
Emperor Xia smiled bitterly and shook his head: "What else do you think we can do now?"
"I guess the entire Xianyang city is under full martial law at this moment."
"If our message can't get out, the so-called anti-Qin alliance won't be able to send troops quickly."
"By the time they send out their troops, the situation in Chu will have already been decided."
He is right.
In fact, even Ying Yuan didn’t know that Xianyang City was now under full martial law.
Perhaps all the officials in the court agreed that such a small matter did not need to be reported to him.
Ever since I learned that Qin was determined to attack Chu.
Overlord Xiang Yu has been waiting for the arrival of the Qin army.
When he confirmed that the Qin army had indeed appeared on the border of Chu, he immediately summoned his civil and military officials to discuss the matter.
First, Fan Zeng, Xiang Yu's chief counselor, spoke slowly:
"We should first ask Fengguo for help. Without Fengguo's intervention, it will be difficult for us to defeat Qin."
"Secondly, we need to find out who the generals Qin is sending this time are."
"I really don't believe that the Qin State went to such great lengths to send only one Yue Fei."
After the defeat, Xiang Yu did not change his arrogance, but he became much more prudent in dealing with the war.
"Yue Fei... I've met him before. He's quite skilled at commanding large armies."
"Even if he comes alone, we can't let our guard down."
After hearing this, Fan Zeng was obviously relieved and said with a smile:
"Your Majesty is right. I will follow you and fight that fellow a few times to see what he is capable of."
Soon, all departments of Da Chu began to move.
As soon as possible, they gathered enough military food and supplies for Xiang Yu to use in the expedition.
It's been about six or seven days.
Xiang Yu slowly arrived at the border area.
He spoke to the soldiers:
"I know Yue Fei, he's quite good at siege warfare."
"So, defending the city gate and engaging in a battle would actually give the Qin army what they want."
"I will lead an army and launch an offensive against Yue Fei."
This was a strategy that he had discussed with Fan Zeng on the way here.
The next day, Xiang Yu led 300,000 lions to play chess with Yue Fei.
Before the war began.
Yue Fei invited Xiang Yu to come and have a chat in front of the two armies.
After hearing the news, Fan Zeng said worriedly:
"Your Majesty, the Qin army has been fighting for several days and is exhausted. If our army suddenly charges at this moment, we will surely achieve success."
"Besides, it seems that you and the Qin general Yue Fei have no past to discuss."
"I'm worried that this is a delaying tactic by the Qin army, or it might be disadvantageous to you!"
The reason why Yue Fei invited Xiang Yu to come and have a chat was not a delaying tactic.
Instead, it is to deliberately provoke the other party.
When Xiang Yu heard what Fan Zeng said, he smiled disapprovingly and said:
"If I don't leave, I'm afraid that people all over the world will really think that we Chu people are afraid of Qin people."
The latter sighed softly, "Forget it, Your Majesty, please be careful."
Then.
Xiang Yu really came to the front of the two armies and met Yue Fei.
The latter laughed and said, "I didn't expect you to dare to come. I thought that you, the Overlord, were too old to dare to come."
Xiang Yu frowned,
"The truly old man should be your Qin State's Emperor Ying Yuan, right?"
"This time, he didn't come here in person, but sent you here instead. Could it be that he was afraid of facing me?"
"In that case, you'd better go back to where you came from. Otherwise, I will make sure you become my dead soul."
Yue Fei sneered and said, "I originally thought that the great King of Chu was a great man of the time."
"From what I've seen today, he's nothing more than a mean-spirited person who only knows how to talk."
Hearing the word "villain", Xiang Yu really felt a little furious.
"Qin thief, do you really think I can't kill you?"
Yue Fei laughed and said, "Stop bragging. This time, I will definitely annihilate your Xiang army."
As soon as the words fell.
Xiang Yu turned his horse around and prepared to return to his own camp to charge at the Qin army.
However, at this moment, he heard Yue Fei's words again,
"I forgot to tell you that I built a kneeling statue of your grandfather Xiang Yan inside Hangu Pass."
"I want him to be spurned by the people inside Hangu Pass and to submit to the feet of the Great Qin for eternity!"
Xiang Yu turned around abruptly and shouted angrily, "Thief! Thief! I will capture you alive and skin you alive!"
The next moment, he actually rushed directly towards Yue Fei.
Seeing this, the latter calmly turned his horse around and returned to the camp.
When Fan Zeng saw Xiang Yu coming alone, he rushed to the Qin army.
He was shocked and immediately ordered:
"Soldiers, charge! Charge!"
