It was dark in the night, and Gao Chu was ambushing the artemisia bushes outside the mountain valley with more than 200 personal soldiers.

Looking back, you can vaguely see the lights in the fortress. You can imagine with your toes. What is going on in the fortress now? The remaining troops of more than 3,000 Chu troops, except for the more than 200 of them, are all popular in the fortress and drink spicy food. If you are lucky, you can still hold your wife and have fun.

"I can't figure it out, the general is too indifferent."

"That's right, we are the general's personal soldiers, but we are drinking the northwest wind instead?"

"If I go back late, I will have no share of delicious food or delicious food."

The soldiers below complained, and Gao Chu was in a bad mood. He scolded him angrily: "Shut up, who dares to say more? I really let him drink the northwest wind!"

With more than a dozen teams leading the team, Shi Chang suddenly fell silent and dared not say anything more.

Gao Chu then took the sacks of rice balls beside him and ordered several teams to lead the team: "Go, divide these rice balls for everyone. Don't forget to give him two more black spears, so that he can brighten his eyes and keep a close eye on me."

"No!" More than a dozen teams led the team, and the leader agreed and left unhappily.

Although this rice ball is cold and hard, dry and astringent, it can always fill your stomach. If you really annoy Gaotun Chief, I am afraid that even this rice ball will not be eaten.

#############

In the fort, three thousand Chu soldiers were caring.

Some people are busy boiling water and cooking, some are busy killing pigs and sheep, and more people are holding bowls and chopsticks, sitting around the stove, waiting to have a feast. After so many days of hunger, today I can finally eat with my stomach open. I'm anxious! Of course, some people have also kidnapped young and beautiful women and are having fun.

Of course, Xiang Zhuang knew about it, but he did not stop it.

Because this is a chaotic world, there are rules for troubled times.

What's more, in this era, the concept of chastity has not yet been formed. Many places even have the custom of wives and guests. Even those women are not ashamed of, but rather happy. What's the matter with Xiangzhuang?

After all, rape means that one party is unwilling. If both parties are willing, is it still called rape?

In the tiled house in the center of the fort, two multi-branch lamps and more than a dozen wall lamps illuminate the entire hall as bright as daytime. Xiang Zhuang was having a banquet for Huan Chu, Ji Bu, Zhonglimei, Xiao Gongjiao, Yu Ziqi and other Chu generals. Each of them had a whole half-cooked pork trotter on their desks, a large jar of brown rice, and a full jar of water and wine.

"Come on, generals, you've done it!" Xiang Zhuang raised his cup and greeted the generals from afar, and then drank it all in one go.

The so-called water wine cannot be considered a true wine. At best, it is just a drink fermented with mixed grains. Its alcohol content is quite low, but if you drink too much this thing, you will also get drunk.

While Xiang Zhuang was drinking with the generals, the leader of the army served a fat chicken that was roasted golden.

Xiang Zhuang grabbed the roast chicken, thought about it and tore off half and handed it to Jing Qian and said, "Go and send this half of the chicken to Yu Ji."

To be honest, Xiang Zhuang did not care about Yu Ji's life and death. Although she was a charming beauty, Xiang Zhuang was not a person who was merciful at all. If he wanted to follow his original intention, he would not take Yu Ji to escape. However, since this was Xiang Yu's order, and now it was probably Xiang Yu's last order, Xiang Zhuang could not say so, so he could only obey the order.

Jing Qian took the order and then Xiangzhuang grabbed the fat chicken and started eating it in the wind.

Huan Chu and the other two also ate their food and drink. Until they had enough wine and food, Huan Chu burped and asked, "General, I don't know what we should do next?"

Ji Bu and the other two also put down their bowls and chopsticks and raised their ears.

Xiang Zhuang suddenly smiled slightly. After all, Huan Chu and others didn't accept him much. If it were Xiang Yu's leadership, they would never and dare not ask this question.

However, this is also expected.

Things like Xiang Zhuang's tiger body was revived, Huan Chu, Ji Bu and others took their heads and bowed to each other, only in the poor movies and TV dramas in later generations. In the real ancient world, this situation is absolutely impossible. Don't underestimate the wisdom of the ancients, especially those of ruthless people like Huan Chu and Ji Bu. How could they become generals from Yi Jie Buyi?

Xiang Zhuang smiled slightly and asked without answering, "General Huan, according to your opinion, what should we do next?"

"This..." Huan Chu replied after pondering for a moment, "The last general thinks that Jiangdong is the foundation of our army, so in the end our army should still fight back to Jiangdong!" After saying this, Huan Chu sighed again and said, "I just don't know how the king is now, and there are two counties in Jiangdong. I wonder if they have been lost?"

The hall suddenly became silent, and everyone bowed their heads in despair.

Although no one wants to believe it, in fact everyone knows that Xiang Yu is definitely in danger. Most of the two counties of Zhang and Kuaiji in Jiangdong have also been lost. In other words, their three thousand remnants are already a completely lonely army. From then on, they will not get any foreign aid and they will be enemies of the whole world!

"Jiangdong, we must be killing back." Xiang Zhuang nodded and said solemnly, "Because that is our hometown, there are our parents, wives, children, and relatives there, but..." After saying this, Xiang Zhuang said again, "Not now. When we go back to Jiangdong now, we can only fall into the trap, that's asking for death!"

Ji Bu, Zhonglimei and Xiao Gongjiao all nodded silently.

Huan Chu said again: "Then general, what should our army do now?"

"Now?" Xiang Zhuang said lightly, "Eat, drink, just do it!"

"General, the last general is talking about tomorrow." Huan Chu frowned, "What should I do tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow?" Xiang Zhuang said again, "I will go to the city tomorrow, and continue to eat and drink when I get to the city."

"Entering the city?" Zhong Limei changed his mind slightly, "What is the general saying, Shouchun? We want to fight Shouchun?"

As soon as these words were said, Huan Chu, Ji Bu, Xiao Gongjiao and Yu Ziqi all changed their faces. You must know that Shouchun is the county seat of Jiujiang County, with a high city and deep ditch. It is believed that there are still heavy troops to guard it. Even if 100,000 Chu troops come to attack, they may not be able to take it down in a hurry. Now there are only more than 3,000 remnants, which is even more impossible.

"Yes, Shouchun." Xiang Zhuang's tone was still plain, as if taking down Shouchun was just a trivial matter.

"General, this matter is very important. Think about it all!" Zhong Limei was very anxious when he heard this, "Shouchun is not easy to fight!"

Xiang Zhuang waved his hand and said lightly: "General Zhongli is worried, I have my own concerns." After saying this, he looked around Huan Chu, Ji Bu, Xiao Gongjiao, and Yu Ziqi, and said, "Please rest assured, generals, I will never take the lives of three thousand soldiers to take risks. Fighting Shouchun is to take a wise lead, not to attack!"

"Go ahead of wisdom?" Huan Chu, Ji Bu and others looked at each other.

"Yes, take advantage of the situation." Xiang Zhuang nodded lightly, "If the soldiers are not bloody, take down Shouchun!"

The Battle of Shouchun was of great significance to Xiang Zhuang. He not only wanted to reduce the losses of the Chu army as much as possible, but also wanted to establish his prestige by using this battle, so that the Chu army generals such as Huan Chu, Ji Bu, Zhonglimei, Xiao Gongjiao would no longer dare to question his decision. Otherwise, if this continues, there will be a big trouble in the future.

Outside the hillside, more than 200 personal soldiers had already drunk the northwest wind for the middle of the night.

Gao Chu fell asleep and woke up by the cold, then fell asleep, and then woke up by the cold. After four repeated times, two harsh old screams finally came from the top of the mountain. In an instant, Gao Chu's sleepiness disappeared because he knew that it was not the real old scream just now, but the black spear ambushed on the top of the mountain to warn.

"Wake up, wake up!" Gao Chu quickly woke up the team leader who was sleeping soundly beside him, and whispered, "Go and wake up all the brothers and get ready to work!"

The order was conveyed quickly, and more than 200 personal soldiers woke up one after another.

Less than a moment later, a few faint flames suddenly appeared under the night sky ahead. As time went by, the flames gradually became clear, and then gradually turned from one to two to four to become more than a dozen bright pine and bright torches. When they got closer, they found that it was a scout team of about twenty people.

Gao Chu's lips suddenly had a grim smile. As expected, after deliberately letting dozens of villagers go away, Shouchun really sent a scout team to spy on military information.

As he was about to enter the ambush circle, the more than 20 scouts suddenly stopped.

Gao Chu was shocked and was discovered and hidden. Can't you? Just as Gao Chu was hesitating whether to launch an attack, the scout team leader who was walking in front suddenly shouted: "I heard carefully. There is Panchuanao in front. I have turned off the fire for me. When entering the mountain awning, I will put my hands and feet lighter, so don't disturb the strong men inside."

"No!" The scouts agreed and put out the torches one after another.

In the darkness, more than twenty scouts continued to move forward and soon entered the ambush circle.

"Raise the fire and kill!" Gao Chu gave the order, dozens of pine and open torches lit up. Then more than 200 Chu soldiers rushed out of the wormwood bushes with their cold swords. The more than 20 scouts who came to spy were caught off guard. Most of them were cut down in just a few seconds, leaving only seven or eight people still fighting stubbornly.

The scout team had a particularly powerful lead. They used a pair of short spears and even beat more than a dozen Chu soldiers in a row.

Seeing that the scouts were about to break through, Gao Chu arrived in time, and the big broad sword weighing about fifty pounds blocked the scouts' route. The two fought for a few minutes, and the remaining scouts were also chopped to the ground one after another. The scouts were hopeless to escape, and when they gritted their teeth, they turned around and wanted to commit suicide.

How could Gao Chu let him do what he wanted? The big sword shook, and a clear sound was heard. The two short spears led by the scout team had been swept away. Two Chu soldiers took advantage of the situation and rushed forward to the scout team to the ground. The scout team was in a state of grief and anger. However, when he saw the color of the two Chu soldiers' robes, his eyes suddenly lit up and his face showed a look of shock and suspicion.
