Except for Liu Ji and others, as well as Han Xin from the north, others also reacted extremely fiercely, but in the final analysis, their reactions were insignificant.
In this drama that has intensified, the protagonist has been determined, and only a few people can stand at the center of the stage.
After the battle between Xiang Yu and Xiang An in Dongjuncheng, the Western Chu chose to curb its offensive and moved its army back a lot for the first time, from Dongjuncheng to Chengyang and Dingtao Yiyi, giving way to
The fertile land between the river and the Huai River.
Xiang An's departure not only took away several capable generals, but also took away half of the Western Chu army.
Xiang Yu, who was at the center of the storm, never showed up again due to his injuries.
...
"Lord Xiang Yu, are you feeling better?" Poppy sat beside the bed and fed Xiang Yu the medicinal porridge she had cooked with her own hands.
"Huh..." Xiang Yu sat up, exhaled, took the poppy's bowl with an expressionless face, and drank the contents in one gulp.
Putting the bowl aside, Poppy sighed: "I don't know how uncle is doing now..."
"Lord Xiang Yu, why do you have to think about forcing uncle away? Obviously, there is a better solution, isn't there..."
Xiang Yu shook his head and answered the question incorrectly.
"He has now declared the founding of the country. The name of the country is Beichu. He probably wants to conquer Sanqi and use it as his own territory." Xiang Yu sat up, put his hand on Yu Meiren's hand, and said calmly, "And
With Xiang An's ability, he probably has some ideas about the two swallows in the north."
"...Yes, but what are your thoughts, Lord Xiang Yu." Poppy held up Xiang Yu's chin with one hand and looked into Xiang Yu's eyes.
"No one understands your heart, including me."
"Why do you keep hiding yourself, Lord Xiang Yu?"
Xiang Yu and Poppy looked at each other, seeing pain and sadness.
Even if he does not understand human beings, even if he is not a human being and does not intend to become a human being, Xiang Yu understands one thing.
Poppy, loves herself deeply.
She had fallen in love with him since the moment he wiped away her tears on the plateau.
Xiang Yu was a little silent and wanted to move his eyes away, but Poppy caught up to him instantly.
As a last resort, he lowered his eyes and spoke slowly.
"Yu... do you really want to know?"
"All this is very cruel to you. Even if I say this, you still want to know?"
"think."
Poppy's eyes were extremely serious.
"No matter what kind of Lord Xiang Yu he is, no matter what he is, I will love him sincerely."
"So, let me know, Lord Xiang Yu."
"..." Xiang Yu opened his mouth, and for the first time his face showed some human helplessness.
"Oh well."
...
"General Wei Ya, take your men and pass from the side. You must be fast. Don't give Peng Yue and Tian Bing time to react." Xiang An was able to get out of bed. Without any delay, he put on his horse and braved his weakness.
His body came to the front line and personally directed the battle.
"I will obey my orders, Your Majesty!" Wei Hao knelt on the ground with an excited look and a loud voice.
Xiang An is already the king of Northern Chu. As Xiang An's minister, he naturally calls Xiang An "the king".
"Xiao Si, I leave this frontal attack to you." Xiang An looked in another direction, with an undeniable fatigue in his voice.
"I will obey your orders, Your Majesty." Zijuan promised, but his eyes revealed deep worry, "Your Majesty, you'd better go and have a rest as soon as possible. When daybreak, I will definitely let Your Majesty stay in Linzi.
Recuperate in the city."
"Well, I'll leave it to you." Xiang An smiled as gently as he could, patted Zi Juan on the shoulder, and looked at Xiang Lu, "Fourth uncle, I have to leave this battle to you, Xiaosi.
I'm a little inexperienced, please take care of me."
"General, please obey the order and leave it to me. Don't worry too much now and go and have a rest." Xiang Lu nodded and said as if he was expelling someone.
"It's no problem for me." Although Xiang An was weak, he still shook his head stubbornly and looked in the direction of Linzi with determination in his eyes. "This is the founding battle of Beichu. If it weren't for the fact that his injury hadn't healed, I would have thought
Personally lead the troops to Linzi City and cut into pieces the five horses of Pengyue who spread evil words!"
"So..." He looked back at the three people in front of him with sharp eyes, "This battle must be won! Do you understand?"
"yes!"
It was already late at night, and the three generals, together with all the soldiers of Beichu, pressed in the direction of Linzi in a mighty manner.
Xiang An's march is not a secret. After he withdrew, Peng Yue and Tian soldiers tried to attack back and took back several cities from Xi Chu. Xiang An took them back and ate them on the way here.
After taking all the land in Jibei and most of Qi's land, Linzi, the capital of Qi, is now in front of us.
Linzi's defense will definitely be extremely firm, even at night. How crazy Xiang An will be after leaving Xiang Yu, even just imagining Peng Yue and Tian Bing will understand, so their defense will also be extremely crazy.
But even so, Xiang An still has to fight, because as long as this battle is won, the entire Qi peninsula will be taken into Xiang An's hands and become part of the new country "Northern Chu".
"Xiaoye, do you think we will win?" Xiang An said to his side while riding on Tuanchi's back, looking at the bright lights in the direction of Linzi.
"I will definitely do it, Your Majesty!" Liao Ye, who was also riding a horse, vowed, "General Zi will definitely win!"
Zijuan is now the general of Northern Chu.
"Well, let's go back." Xiang An nodded, withdrew his gaze and looked at his abdomen.
If nothing else, it's probably bleeding.
After a fight with Xiang Yu, Xiang An suffered more injuries than all the previous injuries combined. Now it is extremely difficult to be able to ride on a horse and talk to others.
However, what makes Xiang An feel more sad than his physical injuries and pain is Xiang Yu's attitude.
From the beginning to the end, Xiang Yu showed no trace of remorse or emotion about the past or what he had done, nor did he show any desire to retain his biological brother. Xiang An left countless leeway for Xiang Yu, as long as Xiang Yu opened his mouth to retain him.
In one sentence, Xiang An might not even leave.
But Xiang Yu didn't say a word to save him, and he took his sins as a matter of course.
Xiang An has completely given up.
From now on, Xiang An will dominate the north of the rolling river, forming an opposition to Xiang Yu in the south of the river, and officially participate in the team competing for the common master of the world.
