Chapter 13 Conspiracy

"What happened?" Xiang Yu was startled when he heard what the person said. He quickly grabbed the big sword leaning on the weapon rack and said, "Take me quickly to take a look." As he said this, he jumped on the platform.

A Wuzui horse was grazing not far away. Other Xiang clan members were also busy riding forward behind him.

The group quickly arrived at the camp where the city guards were placed in the western suburbs of Kuaiji City. They saw dozens of people tied up outside the camp. Each of them had their limbs tied together with arm-thick hemp ropes, making them unable to move.

Behind them was a strong man holding a broadsword, who was obviously the executioner preparing to execute them.

When Xiang Yu and others arrived, a man dressed as a scribe walked out of the camp and said to everyone: "You are gathering people to make trouble and disrespecting the general. I am here to conduct military justice on you and others under the order of General Liu. Come here."

Which, the execution will be carried out immediately."

Upon hearing this, a group of executioners hurriedly walked up to them, raised their swords, and were about to chop off their necks. The eyes of all the soldiers showed grief and anger, but their limbs were tied and all were gone, otherwise they might have died.

I'm about to rise up and resist.

Seeing this situation, Xiang Yu shouted: "Save someone under the sword!" With his loud shout, Wu Zui, who stepped down, came to the crowd like lightning. The sword in his hand flashed dozens of times, killing those people.

All the knives that were slashed at the soldier's neck were blocked. This move from shouting to running to blocking all the knives was completed in just one moment, which shocked the scribe and all the executioners.

"General Xiang!" All the bound soldiers shouted excitedly when they saw that Xiang Yu had rescued them.

"Xiang Yu? Why do you want to prevent our army from punishing these soldiers who have violated military discipline?" the scribe asked.

But Xiang Yu didn't even look at him, he just shouted: "Who is in charge here, come out to see me!" As he said this, he motioned to several subordinates to untie the ropes that bound the soldiers. At this time, he

Only then did he realize that the people who were almost killed were generals who had fought several tough battles with him, and his expression became even more gloomy.

"I don't know that General Xiang's arrival is too far away to welcome you." A general came out of the main tent and said, the word "小" was particularly strong in his words, which was naturally used to point out that Xiang Yu was no longer there.

He is no longer the true leader of the army.

Xiang Yu recognized this man as Zhou Bo, a general under Liu Bang who was captured alive by him, so he sneered: "Who do I think I am? He was defeated by my subordinates from far away. Why doesn't your general come out?"

You want to see me, but let a subordinate come out." The contempt in his tone was very strong.

A hint of hatred flashed in Zhou Bo's eyes, but then it disappeared and he said: "My general is not in the army now, and now I am in charge of this military camp. Isn't it too much, General Xiang, to obstruct the law enforcement in our army?"

"What crime did they commit that they should be beheaded in public?" Xiang Yu took a step forward and stared at Zhou Bo.

Zhou Bo looked at the soldiers who had been released and stood up and said: "They gathered to make trouble and wanted to provoke internal fighting in our army. What's wrong with me killing them on General Liu's order?"

"Fart!" one of the soldiers yelled. "If you hadn't deducted our military pay, we wouldn't have gone to Liu Bang to ask for an explanation. But Liu Bang clearly wanted to do something bad for us, so instead of pursuing it, he said I'll wait.

He despised the superior officer and beat several soldiers who went to argue with him with a hundred military sticks. This made us dissatisfied and gathered a crowd to argue with him, but he said that we were gathering to cause trouble and tied us up and wanted to kill us."

When Xiang Yu heard what was going on, the anger in his eyes burned. He stared at Zhou Bo and said, "Is he telling the truth?"

"This is a matter within our army. What right do you, a general from other armies, have to interfere with this matter?" Zhou Bo felt chilled by Xiang Yu's stare, but he did not loose his words at all.

"Just because I was the commander-in-chief of these soldiers back then, I knew their character very well and knew that they were not people who would easily violate military regulations, let alone gather people to cause trouble." Xiang Yu said coldly, "If you can't give me anything today.

If I give you a satisfactory explanation, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave here safely today." As he spoke, Xiang Yu inserted the big knife in his hand into the ground.

A chill arose in Zhou Bo's heart. He knew Xiang Yu's abilities very well. He was not Xiang Yu's opponent in the first place, but now he is the first to bend the rules. As the saying goes, only by being straight can one be strong. Now it doesn't matter if he is not straight.

Can he fight with Xiang Yu? But he was ordered by Liu Bang to hold him back if Xiang Yu really came to cause trouble, and waited for Liu Bang to find outsiders to see this scene, so that Liu Bang could find Xiang Yu's fault, and thus

To deal with Xiang Liang, he could only bite the bullet and said: "General Xiang also said that you were the former commander-in-chief. Now these people are all subordinates of General Liu. How General Liu wants to punish them is reasonable, even the king can't

Opposed.”

Xiang Yu also knew that he really had no reason to ask about Liu Bang's military affairs, but the one who was going to be killed was his brother who had been with him for a while, so how could he stand still, so he said forcefully: "Whether it is Liu Bang or the king, if you want to

I, Xiang Yu, will have to interrogate any brothers who try to frame me, Xiang Yu. Not only must I interrogate, but I must also uphold justice for these brothers."

"Since General Xiang said so, I have no choice but to sell your face. Let's do this. When my general comes back, you will find out after you talk to him yourself." Zhou Bo's purpose is just to keep Xiang Yu and others.

, instead of falling out with him, so he said this to Xiang Yu. At the same time, he ordered the soldiers: "Go and find General Liu quickly, and tell him to come back if there is something in the camp." Then he winked at the soldiers.

The soldiers had already received the order from everyone and immediately took the order.

At this time, Liu Bangzheng, Song Yi, and Qu Dou were drinking at Qu Dou's house. Song Yi said: "If Xiang Yu did not go to the military camp to rescue those soldiers today, wouldn't all our plans be in vain?"

Liu Bang said with a smile: "General Song is overly worried. I expected that Xiang Yu would definitely rescue those soldiers. This is due to his character, otherwise he would not be Xiang Yu. And even if he is blocked by Xiang Liang, he will not be able to leave.

, our plan will not suffer any loss."

"Yes, if he doesn't save him, then several of Xiang Yu's trusted generals will die in the military camp. At that time, this army that we cannot fully control will be leaderless, and we can take the opportunity to completely seize the general power.

, this is one;" Qu Dou also followed Liu Bang's words and said, "Second, the reason why Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu are supported by most of our soldiers in Chu is firstly because of their military merits, and secondly because they can

Treat the soldiers as brothers and sisters. If Xiang Yu does not save those people today, the status of their uncles and nephews in our Chu army will be greatly affected, which will cause some people to defect to our side. So regardless of whether Xiang Yu goes or not

Save those people, they will all end in failure this time."

Song Yi scratched his head and said, "Hearing what you said, I'm really worried about the two uncles and nephews of the Xiang family." He laughed loudly.

Just as the three of them were talking happily, the soldier came in and reported Xiang Yu's arrival at the military camp to Liu Bang and the other three. "Then I will go back to the camp to stabilize Xiang Yu. I will leave the rest to Master Qu."

." Liu Bang stood up as he spoke.

"I will go to the palace to see the king and persuade him to go and see for himself, while you will move your army to the west of the city to prevent Xiang Yu from causing trouble." Qu Dou also stood up and said to Song Yida.

So the three of them split up and launched an operation against the uncle and nephew of the Xiang family.

When Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng learned about this, their expressions changed. Fan Zeng even shouted unconsciously: "No, the general has fallen into the trap!" After Xiang Liang walked back and forth several times, he said: "

It seems that I have to go there to take a look this time. I hope Yu'er's trouble hasn't been too big, otherwise our situation will be a little bad."

"General, if you go now, I'm afraid it will suit the wishes of everyone in Qudou. From what I think, they didn't set up this plan just to deal with the young general. I'm afraid their real target is you, general.

Fan Zeng hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Xiang Liang and said, "If you leave, Qu Dou and others will take the opportunity to frame you."

Xiang Liang suddenly stopped, but then said: "But if I don't go, Yu'er's future may be ruined. I have to call him back. Otherwise, I will be sorry for my elder brother who died young."

After he broke away, Fan Zeng left. Fan Zeng looked at Xiang Liang's leaving figure and sighed: "The general still cares too much about family ties. This is why Qu Dou and others can use this tactic to deal with the general."

Xiang Yu had already met with Liu Bang at this time, and the two refused to give in to each other and argued for a long time. Finally, Xiang Yu sneered and said: "Liu Bang, you are just a surrendered general. What qualifications do you have to kill my general of Da Chu?"

"You..." Liu Bang didn't expect Xiang Yu to reveal this. He suddenly remembered the past when his brother was killed by Xiang Jiajun, and there was murderous intent in his eyes. It took a lot of effort to pull it out.

It pressed down.

Just when both sides had nothing to say, a voice came from outside the tent: "The king has arrived!" One after another, honor guard teams were seen walking in, followed by the King of Chu and Qu Dou who went to call him.

King Chu looked at the tense atmosphere in the tent and said, "What is going on? Why did Xiang Qing come to the military camp?"

When Xiang Yu saw the King of Chu arriving, he knew that he might have fallen into the trap of these people. He was not a stupid person, but when he thought that his brother was going to be killed, he was not afraid even if the other party was the King of Chu, so he

After telling all the things, he looked at King Chu and said, "Your Majesty, please tell me, is it inappropriate for Liu Bang to convict them?"

In the palace, the King of Chu only heard Qu Dou say that Xiang Yu was going to incite rebellion in the western suburbs, so he rushed to suppress it. Now after hearing Xiang Yu's statement, he knew that there was something fishy about the matter, so he looked at the other protagonist Liu Bang.
