Seventy-one Overlord's Ambition
"The general has any conditions to do so. As long as you can rescue my grandfather and family, Susu is willing to do something to do!
Baili Susu lost the sword stained with blood and knelt down in front of Xiang Yu again. At this moment, she only had family in her heart.
She was just a weak woman, and at this moment she was just thinking about saving her grandfather and mother, two brothers and a sister, as well as two uncles, aunts, cousins, cousins and cousins, and dozens of families!
It’s not that she is unpatriotic or selfish. The Baili family has contributed almost everything to the Yu State. Do they have to endure the disaster of extermination? Why do so many men in the Yu State want to let themselves, a woman, suffer the grief of losing the entire clan?
When he stole the tiger talisman and left the Yu army camp, Baili Susu was only disappointed. It was obvious that Fang Li was unwilling to save his family at all. He deliberately pretended to ignore this matter. He had already put his grandfather's kindness in his support for him behind his head!
"Fang Li, Fang Li, grandfather misread you, and I misread you, you are too heartless!"
As Yu State traveled along, Baili Susu kept resounding in his mind, and the other party's disappointment even turned into hatred.
"stand up!"
Xiang Yu reached out and signaled Baili Susu to get up, but did not come forward to support him directly. "I heard from my grandfather that Mr. Baili is a great talent for governing the country and ensuring national security. Our Chu State has always lacked internal affairs talents. I will help you rescue your grandfather. You advised him to follow me to serve Chu State for five years. How about it?"
Baili Susu was surprised by Xiang Yu's conditions and said in surprise: "This, this... I'm afraid I can't be the master of my grandfather. If the general rescues him, what should he do if he doesn't agree?"
"Kill you!"
Xiang Yu's answer was straightforward and ruthless, "If your grandfather refuses to come to our Chu State to serve, I will kill you!"
Baili Susu's thoughts flew around and finally nodded and agreed: "Okay... As long as the general can rescue my relatives, I promise to help you persuade grandpa to serve Chu for five years. If he doesn't agree, there is no need for the general to do it, I will commit suicide in front of you."
Xiang Yu praised him with high fives: "It's so generous, I admire you a little!"
He turned his head and ordered: "Where is Xiang Zhuang?"
A middle-sized captain in his thirties turned over and dismounted and bowed: "What are the instructions of the Major General?"
Xiang Yu pointed to Li Ji in the carriage and said, "I will give you fifty people to escort Li Ji south, are you sure?"
Xiang Zhuang held his fists and took the order: "Major General, please rest assured. You will enter our Chu State after walking more than a hundred miles south from Xinye. There is no problem!"
An eight-foot-tall, strong and handsome officer, about 30 years old, suggested: "Brother Xiang, why not let me escort Li Ji to avoid an accident on the way?"
Xiang Yu patted Ji Bu on the shoulder and said, "I only have more than 400 people in my hands when attacking Pinglu this time. I have to rely on you and Ziqi. The two brothers Zhongli are enough to have Xiang Zhuang escort Li Ji."
"Okay, then I'll take a risk with Brother Xiang!" Ji Bu smiled and agreed to Xiang Yu's request, "It's crazy to think about it!"
"Hey hey hey... I don't want to go to Chu State, I want to go home!"
Li Ji in the carriage heard that things had changed again and poked her head out to protest again.
Xiang Yu suddenly glared at her, without any mercy on her face, and angrily scolded: "Shut up your mouth, otherwise you will cut your tongue! The lord only asked me to escort you back, but did not guarantee that you would be intact."
Li Ji was so scared that she hurriedly retracted her head back into the carriage, curled up in a ball, choked with tears, and sighed that she was beautiful and had a poor life.
"Major General, then we're leaving!"
Xiang Zhuang bid farewell to Xiang Yu and took fifty people to escort Li Ji to the south, and continued to move towards Yingdu, the capital of Chu.
Xiang Yu stood in the cold wind and looked at Xiang Zhuang and his ranks gradually distant. Then he slowly turned around and swept around the three confidants behind him. In addition to Ji Bu, there were also Zhonglimei and Yu Ziqi, all of whom he made private friends in Chu. They were skilled in bows and horses, brave and good at fighting.
"Let's go north with me to attack Pinglu and rescue Mr. Baili!" Xiang Yu turned over and took the lead in the horse.
Ji Bu, Zhonglimei, and Yu Ziqi did not ask much, nor did they question whether Xiang Yu's trip was too risky. They only had trust in Xiang Yu, and they all urged their horses to whip and followed Xiang Yu to the north.
"It seems that he is not lying to me, this is the real hero!"
Baili Susu was infected by Xiang Yu's passion and returned the tiger talisman to Yan Ti, and told him to go back and hand it over to Fang Li. He then put his sword back into the sheath, bandaged the cracked tiger's mouth, and followed Xiang Yu to the north.
Looking at Li Ji who was heading north and heading south, Yan Ti shook his head and ordered his subordinates to take the golden gold back the same way, and rushed to Chiyang and reported to Fang Li.
In the past, the road from Xinyehou was flat and the horse was flat. Xiang Zhuang and others surrounded Li Ji's carriage and walked all the way. After noon, they had already arrived at the border of Deng. After walking more than ten miles, they would enter the border of Chu.
At this moment, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from the west, and a team of more than 300 people swept over like lightning. The horsemen were all wearing strong clothes, hanging bows and arrows on their waists, and riding horses like flying.
"Prepare for the fight!"
Xiang Zhuang was shocked, drew his sword in his hand, and shouted loudly: "Where are the bandits coming? We are the army of Chu. Don't build a spy!"
The response to Xiang Zhuang was a sharp arrow, which broke through the air and passed by lightning.
Xiang Zhuang could not dodge and was shot in the shoulder with an arrow, almost falling off his horse.
He hurriedly looked down and found that it was a feather arrow used by the Qin army. He couldn't help but be surprised, "Are you from Qin?"
Xiong Lu, Duke of Chu, issued an edict to all countries along the way. The news of Li Ji's journey south to Chu was very rumored. The scout of Qin immediately reported the news to Xianyang. After learning about Qin Mu Duke Ying Renhao, he immediately ordered the Xiao general to select an elite force to go south to intercept, intending to humiliate Chu, and threaten Jin with Li Ji for his use.
After receiving the order, Wang Li selected three hundred warriors, rushing thousands of miles from Qin, chasing Li Ji's whereabouts until the junction of Chu and Deng.
At first, Wang Li was worried about the number of Chu and Yu soldiers, and was not sure of robbing people. He was suffering from the opportunity to take action, but for some reason, the Chu army suddenly parted ways. The large army headed north, and only a small group escorted Li Ji south.
Wang Li was overjoyed and immediately led his troops to cross the road south until he confirmed that there was no risk before he could kill people.
Wang Li and the three hundred Qin soldiers in the cold wind were all wearing strong clothes, masked with black scarves, holding a scimitar, and rushed towards the Chu people, "Don't want to fight, snatch people and leave!"
The two sides quickly fought together. Although the Chu people were brave, the Qin army was also brave and good at fighting, not to mention that the number of people was far greater than that of the Chu army, and soon gained the upper hand and cut dozens of Chu troops under the horse.
"Break through!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Xiang Zhuang waved his sword and opened a bloody road, leading the remaining Chu army to the north, preparing to chase Xiang Yu and report the news.
Wang Li successfully robbed Li Ji and shouted, regardless of Li Ji's yelling, surrounded the carriage and rushed northwest.
Xiang Yu did not know the bad news of Li Ji's robbery at this moment, so he led his troops to speed for a day. By the evening, he had already rushed north for more than 300 miles and entered the territory of Shen Kingdom. Seeing that it was getting late, he ordered to camp on the spot and sleep in the wild.
A bonfire was formed in the tent of the coach. Xiang Yu, Ji Bu, Zhonglimei and Yu Ziqi formed a group of people to drink, chatting about some of the experiences and customs of various countries.
Ji Bu took a sip of wine and asked, "Brother Xiang, I don't understand why you chose to take the risk to go north. Are you moved by this little girl?"
Xiang Yu smiled, raised his head and drank the wine in his glass and drank it all: "A real man should live a world-wide life, and this life will be worthwhile! I, Xiang Yu, ambitious to seek a career as a king, how can I stay under others for a long time? If one day breaks the soil and stand on my own, Baili Xi will be a good helper!"
