The bright moon dominated the world during the Qin Dynasty

Fan Zeng woke up from his coma and saw the faces of all the Chu generals in the camp.

"Father, you finally woke up."

Xiang Shaoyu was very worried, gathered around the bed, and held Fan Zeng's hand.

The tent was very warm, with charcoal fire burning, but Fan Zeng, who had just woken up, still had something strange in his eyes.

Xiang Shaoyu and all the Chu army generals smelled faintly of blood.

"Zhao Shuang called?"

Faced with Fan Zeng's doubts, all the Chu generals lowered their heads. Only Xiang Shaoyu said calmly.

"We had a battle with Zhao Xie."

"What!"

Fan Zeng wanted to sit up, but his weak body could not support him and he kept coughing.

"Father, your health is important, don't worry about these things at this time."

Listening to Xiang Shaoyu's persuasion, Fan Zeng coughed more and more. It took a long time to calm down.

"Yu'er, you are confused!"

Fan Zeng didn't want to know the cause of this incident. He had already guessed it anyway.

"How is Zhao Xie doing now?"

"Left with tens of thousands of remnant troops, it seems that they are preparing to return to Zhao."

Xiang Shaoyu originally wanted to explain, but at this moment Fan Zeng looked at the skylight at the top of the tent, and his originally distracted eyes gradually condensed.

"No, we can't let Zhao Xie leave like this."

"Yafu, what did you say?"

Everyone looked at Fan Zeng, but saw that his face was not as usual at this time, and he was quite cold.

"If the situation is like this, he cannot be allowed to return to the Kingdom of Zhao. Now that the land of Yan is in the hands of Zhao Shuang, if Zhao Xie changes his attitude and joins Zhao Shuang's camp, it will be fatally dangerous for us."

"But there is a deep hatred between Zhao Xie and Zhao Shuang. Will this be the case?"

Zhong Lihuan asked from the side, but this question only received a positive answer.

"Will do!"

Fan Zeng said, knowing the current situation well.

"Zhao Shuang is already the king, and he has much more chips than before. As long as he is willing to admit Zhao Xie's position as king, Zhao Xie will immediately turn to him when he is angry."

Fan Zeng's words turned cold. At this time, everyone in the camp seemed to not recognize Fan Zeng.

"In addition to Zhao Xie, the most important people in the Zhao Kingdom are Zhang Er and Chen Yu. As long as they have the support of these two, the situation will not be out of control. Tell Xiang him to guard Baima Jin. Don't let Zhao Xie cross the river. Yu'er, go there yourself and capture Zhao Xie."

Xiang Shaoyu did not hesitate when he heard this. He stood up and said something.

"Yafu, please wait for my news."

Xiang Shaoyu picked up the Flame God Spear and was about to leave when an emergency call came from outside the tent.

"General, Puyang has been lost."

The sound was like thunder, causing the entire camp to explode.

Fan Zeng, who was deep in thought, no longer wanted to lie down, and sat up with Zhong Lihuan's help.

"what happened?"

The Chu military captain who came to report looked at the weak Fan Zeng and was hesitating when he heard him urging him.

"Say it."

"Five thousand cavalry from Qi State arrived in Puyang not long ago. The brothers didn't pay attention at first and distributed food and grass to them according to the original rules. But they suddenly took action, attacked the city gate and captured Puyang."

"Tian Rong?"

Puyang was the capital of the Wei Kingdom in the past, and now it is also an important town under the Chu Kingdom, hoarding supplies mobilized from the hinterland of the Chu Kingdom.

But why did Tian Rong attack the city controlled by Chu State at this time?

The strange thing made everyone in the tent become silent, and they didn't know how to answer for a while.

But soon, another urgent message came from outside.

"General, Hakumagatsu has been lost!"

"what happened?"

The messy situation made Xiang Shaoyu extremely irritable, and he was completely unable to grasp the situation at this time.

"The imperial army took advantage of the confrontation between General Xiang Ta and Zhao Xie to capture Baimajin, and then five thousand cavalry attacked our army and Zhao army. Our army and Zhao army were defeated, and General Xiang Ta and King Zhao did not know Whereabouts."

Fan Zeng coughed louder.

"Zhao Shuang's Huben army has been in Yangzhai and has shown no sign of mobilization. Our army has sent out sentries around Xingyang and along the river. Where did these five thousand cavalry come from?"

"I don't know. I only know that these five thousand cavalry are coming from the direction of Puyang, and they are all flying the banner of the Qi army."

Fan Zeng's expression changed drastically, and at this time, a third urgent report came from outside the camp.

"General, King Qi is leaving with his army."

Fan Zeng sat up at this time, his face became harder than before.

"Jibei County must have changed for this to happen."

…

"I treat him well, and Brother Wang treats him well, but he betrayed our Qi State and incited the defenders of Jibei County to betray me."

Tian Rong was very angry and cursed.

"Wei Ci, this bastard, I will kill him with a thousand knives."

Just scolding him cannot relieve his hatred. Now Tian Rong can't wait to fly to Jibei County immediately and cut Wei Ci's body into thousands of pieces.

But at this time, he could only wander around in the camp.

"Your Majesty, Fan Zeng is here."

Tian Rong temporarily extinguished the anger in his heart and waved his hand.

"Let him in."

Tian Rong knew about the entanglement between Zhao Jun and Chu Jun. At first, he was a little gloating about the misfortune, but now, the anger burned to his eyebrows.

Fan Zeng walked in with his cane and was supported by Zhong Lihuan. He was about to salute when he was stopped by Tian Rong.

"It doesn't have to be this way."

Fan Zeng was very weak, as if he would collapse if the wind blew, but his eyes were still sharp.

"King Qi, what happened in Jibei County?"

Fan Zeng knew very well that the great changes in the current situation were closely related to Jibei County.

But that was Qi's territory after all, and no one knew the situation in Jibei better than Tian Rong at this time.

"One of my ministers betrayed me and incited all the Jibei guards to surrender to Zhao Shuang. At this time, the rebels in Jibei plus the empire's reinforcements had reached 50,000. If I don't return the reinforcements, I'm afraid Qi will be defeated." The country will perish."

When Fan Zeng heard this, he gradually understood that his plan to ask King Qi to postpone the return of aid might not be realized.

Finally, Fan Zeng bowed his hand.

"Puyang and Baima have now fallen into the hands of the empire. I am afraid that King Qi's journey will not be smooth, so please take care of yourself."

Once Puyang was lost and Tian Rong wanted to return for reinforcements, the nearest road was blocked. He could only take a detour back to Linzi and make plans again.

"Thank you sir!"

Tian Rong returned the favor.

A gust of wind blew, stirring up the somewhat panicked camp.

With the support of Zhong Lihuan, Fan Zeng walked out of King Qi's tent. Fan Zeng did not leave, but stood in the center of the camp, looking at the busy Qi soldiers around him, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Amazing!"

"Yafu, what did you say?"

"That person sent by Zhao Shuang!"

Zhong Lihuan didn't know what Fan Zeng was talking about at this time, but he could hear the sadness in Fan Zeng's words.

"Zhao Shuang has been in Xingyang City, watching all this, watching the alliance collapse. Now, what should we do?"

Fan Zeng had no idea, but in this noisy environment, he heard the last news of the day.

"Father, there is an urgent battle report ahead."

Zhong Lihuan asked, standing by.

"what happened?"

"Han Xin led an army of 200,000 troops out of Shouchun, and the vanguard has arrived at Pengcheng."

"Han Xin only has 50,000 troops. Where did he get 200,000?"

Zhong Lihuan asked eagerly from the side.

"Many of them are soldiers from various places, as well as new recruits trained by him."

"It's just a bunch of rabble, Yafu, don't worry."

Zhong Lihuan was comforting him. He could see that Fan Zeng's face was getting paler. He stared at the person in front of him and asked.

"How's the fighting going over there?"

Fan Zeng knew that if it was just a makeshift army, it would be impossible to reach Pengcheng.

The person who came to report hesitated, but finally said it.

"General Long Qie's Tenglong Legion fought with them and the entire army was annihilated."

Fan Zeng's complexion suddenly changed drastically, turning blue and white, and finally he vomited out a mouthful of blood, his breath was weak.

"Zhao Shuang!"

On the side, a figure hidden in the darkness looked at this scene, slightly raised the corner of his mouth, and left.

…

In the dark camp, there were faint lights flickering.

Yingbu sat in the general's position with a large box in front of him.

In the camp, a group of Yingbu's generals were sitting.

The atmosphere in the camp was very awkward. Everyone kept wanting to ask what was in the big box, but Yingbu never said anything.

Finally, he spoke.

"You are all aware of the current situation. The coalition forces are scattered, Fan Zeng is seriously ill, and we are in danger."

Listening to Yingbu's words, the generals noticed something unusual.

"Some of you are old friends who have followed me since the Chu Kingdom, some of you are brothers who I met during my exile and have shared hardships together, and some of you are friends who have resisted the tyranny of the empire together. I will not hide this from you."

Yingbu waved his hand, and the cronies on both sides opened the box.

"Here is the edict of reward given to you by Zhao Shuang. I have read it, and you can read it too."

After Yingbu said this, the generals stood up, walked to the box, took the bronze bone scroll with their names in the box, and opened it.

However, compared to the tempting rewards above, the more sober ones among the crowd still asked.

"Zhao Shuang actually treats me like a boss. He even knows how many children I have in my family?"

Hereditary disregard!

Compared to the bright characters on the bronze bone scroll, everyone was more frightened by the terrifying power revealed behind the scroll in their hands.

"I don't want to hide it from my brothers. I plan to raise troops tonight and surrender to Zhao Shuang. If any of your brothers are unwilling, I won't force you. You can take your troops and leave separately. After that, if you want to stand on your own, Okay, even if you want to tell Xiang Shaoyu, I won’t stop you."

Ying Bu had finished speaking, and all the generals touched the heavy bronze scroll in their hands. In the end, no one left here.

"I am willing to listen to the general's orders!"

Yingbu grabbed the two axes in his hands and said.

"In this case, we will work together to seek wealth and wealth. We will raise troops and attack the coalition camp."

…

Wei army camp.

The tranquility of the night was replaced by the hustle and bustle. Wei Bao woke up from his deep sleep and was shocked.

"what's going on?"

No one can answer Wei Bao's question, because even the cronies around him don't know what happened?

"Your Majesty, there are imperial troops on all sides."

A group of Wei ministers gathered around Wei Bao, only to see that the Wei army camp was surrounded by enemies, but they had no idea how this scene happened?

You know, according to the original deployment, the Wei army had to face only the 10,000 Tigers and Guards troops in the direction of Yingchuan County, and the other directions were all allies' armies.

But now, this is not the case at all.

Today's situation is too complicated. Wei Bao could only make the simplest but most effective order.

"Let Peng Yue bring reinforcements to come to the rescue."

"Your Majesty, I sent people to ask for help from the very beginning, but now, no reinforcements have arrived."

"What happened?"

Wei Bao was very puzzled, but saw a black cavalry unit rushing into the Chinese army camp amid the night fire.

The tall war horses and the knights covered in armor and holding spears exuded cold air and murderous intent in the dark night, destroying all obstacles that stood in their way.

"Hu Ben Army!"

Wei Bao shouted in horror and hurriedly escaped from here under the protection of his personal guards.

…

"General Peng Yue, what are you waiting for? Go and save the king!"

Wei Bao's envoy urged him eagerly.

Peng Yue, however, was playing with the jade bone scroll in his hand, taking some time to relax and coiling it calmly.

"hold on!"

"But the king can't wait much longer. When I came, the enemy troops had already captured the camps around the Chinese army's main tent."

"That's why we have to wait."

A soft voice made the messenger confused.

Situ Wanli walked in, stabbed the messenger's body with a dagger in his hand, covered his mouth, and quietly took his life.

The tent suddenly became bloody, but Peng Yue did not blame him, he was still the same as before.

Situ Wanli looked at the jade bone scroll in Peng Yue's hand and seemed to complain.

"The general seems to have won the title, but I only got the silver bone scroll."

Peng Yue didn't care and just said.

"The defenders of Jibei County rebelled, and among them were members of the Tian family. Now Tian Heng led Qi's defenders to attack day and night, and Tian Rong also hurried back. This jade bone scroll is not so easy to get. .What does the king want me to do?”

Situ Wanli noticed the change in the name of Zhao Shuang in Peng Yue's words and said slowly.

"Now that Tian Rong is anxious to return to Qi, it is the perfect time to attack from behind. If the general had made great achievements, the weight of this jade bone scroll would be even heavier than it is now."

Peng Yue put away the jade bone scroll in his hand and said.

"good!"

…

The morning light was dim, and when the sun shone on the top of Xingyang City, Zhao Shuang was watching from above.

In the distance, there was originally a neat coalition camp, but now it has become collapsed.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

Chen Ping's voice came from the side, filled with joy.

"The old thief Fan Zeng is dead. My people watched him die last night."

Zhao Shuang still looked ahead and did not look back.

"Once Fan Zeng dies, the Chu army has nothing to fear. You did a good job."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Zhao Shuang waved his hand, and the subordinates on the side came over.

"Order Li Xin to take charge of Zhao, join forces with Taiyuan Army and Yan Army, and destroy Chen Yu. Then order Han Xin to go north from Pengcheng, unite with Peng Yue, and destroy Qi. Order Yingbu and Li Zuoche to join forces and capture Suiyang. "

"Your Majesty is really wise, but who will deal with the Chu army?"

Chen Ping originally thought that Zhao Shuang would lead the army in person, but he just smiled.

"The trapped beast is still fighting, you must first build the shackles to bind the beast!"
