Pirates: Be the Master from the East China Sea

The old capital of Zhao and the Qin army's garrison outside the city.

The lieutenant general said respectfully: "I heard that King Chu Huai has sent reinforcements, which are now on the other side of the river. Should we divide our forces to deal with them in case they are inside Zhao Guocheng and those reinforcements should be combined inside and outside?"

Zhang Han smiled and said: "Those reinforcements are just here to watch, you don't need to care at all."

The deputy general raised his eyebrows and said: "You mean they will sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight?"

Zhang Han nodded and said: "Just like the reinforcements from other countries that have arrived before, they will definitely be wary of our Qin army's combat power, so they will make a wishful thinking. They only hope that we and the Zhao army will lose both sides, so that they can take advantage of it. profit."

The deputy general shook his head and sighed: "These rebels are really in disarray."

Zhang Han said: "There is only one thing we have to do now, and that is to concentrate our firepower to defeat Zhao State first, and then go back and deal with them to achieve the goals of defeating them."

The deputy general quickly clasped his fists and said, "The general understands!"

At this moment, on the other side of the river.

Xiang Yu held the King's Halberd in his hand and rode a horse on his hip. He ordered: "Prepare the warships. Let's prepare to cross the river."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a messenger running from the distance, saying loudly: "The general has given an order to stop crossing the river and everyone returns to camp!"

Xiang Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "The Qin army is about to break the city, so we just ignore it?"

The messenger said: "These are the orders of the superior general and have nothing to do with me. If the sub-general has any questions, you can feel free to ask the superior general for feedback."

Xiang Yu snorted and galloped away.

He rode back to the camp, dismounted and went straight to the central military tent. When he saw Song Yi drinking in the tent, he couldn't help but frowned and said, "Why doesn't the general want us to cross the river? Don't you know that soldiers are valuable and quick?"

Song Yi took a sip of wine and said lazily: "General, can you tell me why we need to cross the river?"

Xiang Yu snorted coldly and said: "Of course I want to save the Zhao State from the crisis, and cooperate with them inside and outside to defeat the Qin army with Zhang Han, and show the majesty of our Chu State!"

Song Yi smiled and said: "General, does he know what it means to sit on a mountain and watch a tiger fight?"

Xiang Yu retorted: "Although the Qin army is a tiger, the Zhao army is just a sheep. After the tiger eats the sheep, not only will its strength be damaged, but its morale will be high. And without the support of the Zhao army, we will easily lose our footing after crossing the river." , the general wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, but I’m afraid he made the wrong calculation!”

Song Yi snorted coldly: "You are just a martial artist, how can you understand my plan?"

Xiang Yu took a step forward and said angrily: "Are you really planning to stand still and not save Zhao until death?"

Seeing Xiang Yu's anger, Song Yi couldn't help but retreat secretly and said: "I am the general, you must obey my orders. How dare you commit a crime like this and not be afraid of military law?"

Xiang Yu secretly gritted his teeth, snorted coldly, then turned and left: "Song Yi, take care of yourself!"

Due to Song Yi's suggestion, the Chu army could only camp on the river bank.There has been nothing else to do for days but practice over and over again day after day.

Noon, meal time.

There was a long queue of soldiers, all carrying rice bowls, waiting to eat. The few soldiers in the front saw that there was only thin soup in the bowls, and couldn't help complaining: "Why are they still here? They are all wild vegetables and soup, and the rice is getting less and less. It's simply Just like pig food, hasn’t the army ration arrived yet?”

The gang leader sighed: "You'd better save your energy to complain later. I'm afraid you won't even be able to eat pig food in two days."

When the soldiers heard this, they couldn't help but said anxiously: "Why is this? We are fighting to the death. We may die in battle tomorrow. In the end, we will not even have a full meal. Doesn't this force us to rebel?"

The gang leader said quickly: "You dare to say such things, do you really want to die?"

A soldier said: "But didn't I say above that the next batch of military rations will arrive in two days? Why did you just say that the food will be worse and you won't even be able to eat these things?"

The leader of the group lowered his voice and said: "Don't dream, boy, the military rations have not been blocked at all. They have been delivered here long ago, but they were all given to the old Qi military camp stationed nearby by our general."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was slapped on the shoulder. When he turned around, he saw Xiang Zhuang's angry face: "You are so courageous, how dare you talk nonsense here!"

The leader of the group was startled and said tremblingly: "General, you don't dare to lie!"

Xiang Zhuang said angrily: "Then you just said that all the military rations were given to Qi by the general. What on earth is going on?"

The gang leader said: "I heard that the general has only one purpose for doing this, and that is to find an official position for his son in Qi State. I heard that they have reached an agreement now, and sending military rations is only part of the deal..."

Xiang Zhuang snorted coldly: "Song Yi is trusted by King Huai, why should his son seek employment in Qi?"

The leader of the group sighed: "The general doesn't know something. Now the old Qi is stronger than us. Song Yi's purpose is to leave a way out so that he can escape to Qi in the future..."

Xiang Zhuang pushed away the leader of the group and said coldly: "I will find out about this matter. If you tell a lie, you will be punished by military law and you will not be spared!"

The leader of the group said: "Every sentence is true, I have a clear conscience!"

Xiang Zhuang stopped talking nonsense and turned around with a cold snort. As soon as he left, the leader of the group was surrounded by angry-looking soldiers: "Old Liu, is what you just said true?"

Xiang Zhuang walked around a tent and saw Fan Zeng standing around him, looking at the noisy soldiers with a smile on his lips.

Xiang Zhuang leaned against the flagpole and said with a smile, "Lao Liu, his acting skills are really good."

Fan Zeng slightly nodded and said calmly: "The development of things is as I expected. It seems that Song Yi's good days will not last more than two days."

Xiang Zhuang said quickly: "When should we start the next step?"

Fan Zeng said: "Wait a little longer, let them build up their anger to the highest point, and then our deputy general will find Song Yi for this and make a righteous protest. Song Yi, who became angry and angry, decided to harm the deputy general, and then we had to Resist and kill this traitor."

Xiang Zhuang smiled and said: "Perfect script!"

Fan Zeng stroked his beard and said calmly: "That will only happen if Song Yi is willing to take the bait."

At the same time, Song Yi camped.

Song Xiang said: "There are rumors everywhere in the military camp that I will go to Qi to serve as an official. The situation is very unfavorable to us now. I'm afraid there will be a mutiny if we let it go. What can my father do?"

Song Yi gritted his teeth and said, "Xiang Yu must have done this. It seems that he couldn't help but want to seize my military power. But the problem is, our arrangement is so secret, how could he know about it?"

Song Xiang asked: "Could someone tell the truth?"

Song Yi shook his head and said: "No matter what the truth is, we can only act first. If we hesitate for a moment, we will definitely not be able to escape Xiang Yu's vicious hands."

Song Xiang said quickly: "Then what should we do?"

Song Yi stroked his beard and said: "We will ask Xiang Yu to go hunting in the wild tomorrow, and then notify General Yingbu and ask him to lead his trusted troops to eradicate Xiang Yu."

Song Xiang said: "Yingbu?"
