Chapter 211 Iron Sword Killer
"No." Xiang Zhuang waved his hand and said lightly, "It's not the time."
Although Xiang Zhuang was also worried about Gao Chu's safety, he did not think it was a good idea to take the army across the river now. Baili Xian was afraid that he would not agree with the big moves of crossing the river at this time. The reason why he said this was mostly concerned about Gao Chu's identity, because Gao Chu was not only his confidant and beloved general of Xiang Zhuang, but also a leading figure of the Chu general, and his identity was extraordinary.[]
If Bailixian advised Xiang Zhuang to remain calm at this time and not lead his army across the river, once this statement is heard in Gao Chu's future, it is very likely to cause Gao Chu's misunderstanding. Even if Gao Chu does not misunderstand Bailixian, what about the generals under Gao Chu's command? If you are not careful, this statement may trigger conflicts between the two major general groups of Qin and Chu.
It should be noted that the last time in Jiuyuan's big competition, Yuyuan stole Gao Chu's limelight, which made the Chu general unhappy. Fortunately, Yuyuan's ancestor Yang Youji was also from Chu. Otherwise, the Chu generals would not know what would happen.
Bailixian is extremely smart, how could he make such a low-level mistake?
Seeing that Xiang Zhuang did not adopt his opinion, Bailixian smiled slightly and stopped saying anything. Anyway, he had already expressed his attitude. As for whether Xiang Zhuang accepts it or not, it was not something that Bailixian could control. Bailixian bowed to Xiang Zhuang again, said goodbye and went back to his apartment to write the font comparison table.
Watching Bailixian's figure go away, Xiang Zhuang ordered Jin Xiang again: "Jin Xiang, immediately condemn the flying cavalry and tell Gao Chu that he should not be impulsive in his actions, and put the overall situation first!" After thinking about it, Xiang Zhuang deliberately added another sentence, "It's nothing to tell him that he is wronged now, but it will be ten times more, and a hundred times more will be retrieved."
Xiang Zhuang had hope for Gao Chu, not only because Gao Chu was loyal to him, but also because Gao Chu himself was also a talent that could be made. Gao Chu did not disappoint his Xiang Zhuang's expectations. In just over a year, he had grown from a small, small personal army chief to a general who commanded the army!
Although Gao Chu is not as aggressive as Pang Yu in terms of ability, he is more aggressive than Pang Yu and is closer to Xiang Zhuang in terms of military use style. This is also related to Gao Chu's long time following Xiang Zhuang.
If Gao Chu has any weaknesses, it is a relationship between children.
Especially Qin Yu, Gao Chu's life gate. Once Qin Yu has something to do, it is entirely possible for Gao Chu to do anything in anger. Therefore, Xiang Zhuang specially added: It is not too late to find it back in the future. That is to say, major events are important now, and as for personal revenge, it is not too late to avenge it in the future.
"Here!" Jin Xiang bowed and took the order.
Watching Jin Xiang's figure go away, Xiang Zhuang pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked subconsciously: "Military advisor, who would have sent this assassin named Tianyan..." Halfway through speaking, Xiang Zhuang suddenly remembered that Wei Liao had left and his expression turned dark and sighed a little lonely. As soon as the old military advisor left, he was really not used to it.
Pengcheng, Huainan Palace.
Kuai Che stroked the willow beard under his jaw, walked a few steps to Yingbu, and shook his head again.
Ying Bu was a little impatient and urged, "Oh, Prime Minister, please tell me who is this assassin named Tianyan?"
Kuai Che did not answer, but said in a faint voice: "King, I heard that this Tianyan is quite famous in Wu and Yue?"
"That's it." Ying Bu nodded, "This Tianyan is indeed a famous swordsman. When I raised an army in Fan County, I sent someone to invite him to join, but this guy refused."
Kuai Che nodded and said, "So, Tian Yan should be a long-standing swordsman, and when the king sent someone to invite him to join the gang, he was rejected by him. This shows that Tian Yan is not a swordsman who can be bribed, so this assassination of Gao Chuyi is quite strange."
Ying was confused and frowned and asked, "Prime Minister, who is this Tianyan?"
Kuai Che spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "If Tian Yan is really a paradise and is not bribed by money and goods, then he is not something that Xiang Tuo or Xiang Guan can do."
"The Prime Minister is saying..." Ying Bu said sternly, "Is this instructed by Liu Bang?"
Since the day he attacked Xue County, Ying Bu has officially turned against Liu Bang. Although Liu Bang has not sent anyone to return Xue County, Donghai and Sprinkle Water to the Three Counties, and has not even sent anyone to scold him, Ying Bu knew that the ally relationship between him and Liu Bang had long been broken, and it was a matter of time before the war began.
"It won't be the King of Han either." Kuai Che shook his head and said, "If Tian Yan was really the King of Han, then his target of assassination would not be Gao Chu, a general under Xiang Zhuang, but Xiang Zhuang himself."
"Yes." Ying Bu nodded, "Whose person will this Tianyan be?"
Kuai Che pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked Ying: "King, have you ever heard that the Qin Empire, which had been destroyed for many years, once had a very mysterious army. At that time, almost all the Qin army was still using bronze ware, but this army had already used extremely sharp iron ware. This army was called the Iron Sword Dead Soldier!"
"Iron Sword Dead Soldier?" Ying Bu couldn't help but breathe in the air when he heard this.
As a rebel king at the end of Qin, how could Ying Bu not know the iron sword dead men of the Great Qin Empire? In fact, Ying Bu not only knew the existence of the iron sword dead men, but also was assassinated by the iron sword dead men. These iron sword dead men not only had extremely high sword skills, but also regarded life and death as nothing, and were simply a group of bloodthirsty monsters!
Kuai Che said again: "The base of these iron sword dead soldiers is on a Qianzhang Jue Peak called Hei Bingtai in the South Mountain. Later, in order to keep secrets and make a fool of themselves, the black ice platform became the official title of these iron sword dead soldiers.
"Black Ice Platform? Has the Black Ice Platform been broken by Xiang Yu long ago? The iron sword dead soldiers stationed on it, whether they were apprentices, swordsmans, and even the chief teacher at that time, had been shot and killed by the Chu army..." At this point, Ying Bu suddenly took a breath and said sternly, "Is the Prime Minister saying that Black Fire is not dead, is the pseudonym Tianyan taking revenge?"
"Avenge?" Kuai Che shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, you are too young. Look at these iron sword dead soldiers. In their eyes, there is no personal grudge at all, and there is even no national grudge. They only have the orders of the Qin royal family!"
"The Qin royal family?" Ying Bu frowned, "Isn't Qin prince Ziying killed by Xiang Yu's whole family? Where is the Qin royal family now?" After saying this, Ying Bu said, "Besides, the Qin Empire has been destroyed for so many years. Even if there are really iron sword dead soldiers who miss the net, I'm afraid they'll hide in their own name long ago?"
Kuai Che said: "The so-called small hidden in the wild, and large hidden in the city. Compared to hiding in the mountains and becoming a famous swordsman in the world, isn't it better to protect yourself?" After saying this, Kuai Che said, "As for the bloodline of the Qin royal family, as far as I know, it has not been cut off. When the Chu army captured the Xianyang Palace, a princess Shiman left."
Ying Bu said disapprovingly: "What can you do if a little girl is a little girl? Even though she escaped by chance, she is either dead in the wilderness or married to a mountain villager. From then on, she has been married to a sack of a cloth dress and hairpin. How could she contact the Iron Sword Dead Soldier? It is even more impossible to instruct the Iron Sword Dead Soldier to assassinate Gao Chu."
Kuai Che did not refute Yingbu, but just stroked the willow beard under the jaw and said, "King, as far as I know, this Princess Shiman who missed the net did not die in the wilderness, nor did she marry a mountain village man. In fact, she had married Xiangzhuang half a year ago! If nothing unexpected happens, she will also become Xiangzhuang's wife and the queen of Chu!"
"That's even more wrong." Ying preached, "If Princess Shiman married Xiang Zhuang, how could she instruct the Iron Sword Dead Soldier to assassinate Gao Chu? You need to know that Gao Chu is Xiang Zhuang's confidant general!"
Kuai Che shook his head and said calmly: "Master, is this really the case?"
Ying Bu frowned, then lowered his head and thought. After a while, he was shocked and said sternly: "Major, are you saying that Xiang Zhuang has a factional dispute?"
"That's certainly." Kuai Che said, "Xiang Zhuang employs people completely differently from Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu only trusts people in Chu, and even only trusts relatives of the Xiang clan, but Xiang Zhuang dares to use anyone. Now his subordinates not only have Chu people, but also Wei people, Qi people, and even a large number of Qin people. There are so many people from different countries. If there is no power or factional dispute, it would be strange."
Ying Bu touched the curled beard on the corner of his lips and smiled and said, "Strike, let them fight, the more intense the fight, the better. It would be better for Xiang Zhuang to go to war with Xiang, Xiang Tuo and Xiang Guan to fight him, both sides will be injured. By then, I will be able to personally raise the army across the river, and I will be able to win the two counties of Jiangdong without any effort, hahaha."
Kuai Che smiled faintly and said nothing more.
Since Xiang Zhuang stationed in Liyang and did not cross the river rashly, Kuai Che knew that Xiang Zhuang, Xiang Tuo, and Xiang Guan could not fight. Moreover, if nothing unexpected happens, Xiang Zhuang would eventually stand out from among the various Xiangs and inherit the throne of Chu. Today, Xiang Zhuang is extremely politically mature.
However, Kuai Che did not say what he was thinking, because he knew that Ying Bu definitely didn't like to hear such disappointing words.
In the northern suburbs of Wuzhong, Xiangtuo Daying.
Hundreds of sentry detectives sent to investigate Tian Yan's whereabouts have returned to the camp, but they have not found Tian Yan's whereabouts. Since the assassination failed a few days ago, Tian Yan has disappeared like air. However, this is also expected by Xiang Tuo. Tian Yan was originally a lone ranger, and he has probably already fled to a foreign land.
However, if you can’t find Tian Yan, Gao Chu, it’s hard to explain to Xiangzhuang.
