The general is wise and mighty

Xiang Liang's body was still in the big tent, and Xiang Zhuang was guarding the door, trying to get in but not daring to go in.

An Sheng said, "Go in if you want."

Xiang Zhuang was startled and waved his hands again and again: "No, no, no, I guess my brother will throw me out when I go in."

An Sheng frowned: "Why?" He opened the curtain and walked in while talking, "Probably not."

It was autumn, and the smell in the tent was not too strong. An Sheng stood at the door to get used to it for a while, facing the man standing in the center of the big tent, and looked down at Xiang Liang who was lying peacefully with him.

Unshaven and gray complexion, he doesn't quite look like the Uncle Xiang that An Sheng knew.

Xiang Ji said indifferently: "Bury it."

"Okay, I'll go to the teacher to arrange." An Sheng walked towards the door and stopped when he opened the curtain, "Chicken—"

Xiang Ji looked at An Sheng, his eyes no longer confused.

"It's best for everyone to see Uncle Xiang for the last time."

Fan Zeng had been hiding Xiang Liang here before, and the soldiers had heard the news, but they hadn't seen anyone, and they had already started discussing the reliability of the news in private.An Sheng worried that this would lead to difficulties in leadership after Xiang Ji, so he put forward his own suggestion.

"You arrange it." Xiang Ji agreed, and turned back to look at Xiang Liang.

Five days later, Xiang Liang was buried in the western suburbs of Pengcheng. All the soldiers of the Chu army took off their helmets and bowed their heads in silence.

"Let Yingbu take Lu Chen to the east of Pengcheng to tie the knot." Xiang Ji sat on the general's chair with one leg still on it, "Let Liu Bang get out of the way, the general doesn't want to see him again."

Xiang Ji also hated him because of what happened in Chengyang last time, that is, the Chengyang massacre separated him from An Sheng for such a long time, and he was out of sight and out of mind as soon as possible.

An Sheng laughed and looked at the map: "Then let him go to Dang County to stay."

Huan Chu's movements were similar to Xiang Liang's, and he was also leaning on his seat: "Xiao Ji sent people so far away if he didn't want to see him."

"If you want me to say, send that villain directly to the Xiongnu or Baiyue." Fan Zeng had been hearing An Sheng whispering in his ears that Liu Bang was a villainous person, so he didn't want to see him at all.

An Sheng felt that he might have said too much, if Liu Bang didn't come to compete with Xiang Ji in the future, and replaced him with a dirt bump that he didn't know where he didn't know, it would be difficult to handle .

"General." Fan Zeng got up and stood in front of Xiang Ji. He didn't bend down, but just clasped his fists. "The old man asks the general to defeat the Qin army and avenge the general."

"Of course the general is going, Zhang Han and Sima Xin, I remember the names." Xiang Ji said he understood, "Let the soldiers rest for a while, they all came to Pengcheng after a long journey."

An Sheng nodded, agreeing with Xiang Ji's idea, and as expected, he was given a stare—brat, I am your teacher!

An Sheng replied with a smile - there is no way, if they stay together for a long time, they will become wild.

Fan Zeng blew his beard and stared, walked to his seat and sat down heavily.

After the generals had dispersed, Xiang Ji An Sheng chatted with a friend he hadn't seen for a long time.

Long Qie and Xiang Zhuang sat far away from each other.Xiang Ji whispered to Long Qie: "How are you guys doing?"

Long Qi looked at Xiang Zhuang who was chatting with Huan Chu who was sitting opposite him, and smiled wryly: "Uncle Xiang left, he was sad two days ago and asked me to drink, and if he drank too much, he directly pointed it out. He has been avoiding me since day one, and he hasn't said a word yet."

Xiang Ji smirked: "Success as soon as possible."

"Thank you." Long Qi stared at Xiang Zhuang and talked to Xiang Ji, "How are you?"

"The general is fine." Xiang Yu propped his hands behind his back.

"With whom?" Long Qi asked.

Xiang Ji looked at Long Qi: "Who are you asking? If it's An Sheng, it's good."

Long Qi gave me a clear expression: "I've seen that the relationship between the two of you is not normal. Since An Sheng came, you have protected him, and you don't take my brother seriously."

"Yes?" Xiang Ji asked back.

"Yes." Long and sure.

"Hmm—" Xiang Yu stroked his chin, looked at An Sheng on his left, and began to think deeply.

An Sheng was studying the map with his head down, looking at the route he would take when going north or south. After being watched for a while, he felt something was wrong. He raised his head just in time to meet Xiang Ji's gaze.

"What are you looking at me for?" An Sheng wondered.

"The general can't see it?!" Xiang Yu was caught on the spot, a little embarrassed, and quickly covered it up.

An Sheng lowered his eyes again: "Just look, I'm very generous." Then he ignored Xiang Ji, and started to ask Fan Zeng which route to take was faster.

In the past few days, Xiang Yu had been pinched by Yu Ji's shoulders and made him drowsy. He wanted to lead the troops east, but was stopped by An Sheng, saying that someone in the army was seriously injured and needed more time to recuperate.Moreover, Xiang Liang has also recruited a lot of small teams during this period of time, which also gives Xiang Ji the opportunity to build up a relationship with Xiang Liang's soldiers and facilitate management.

Huan Chu had led soldiers in battle before, and he had the same idea as An Sheng, plus the group of generals that An Sheng discovered, Xiang Ji had to obey the wishes of the crowd and stay for a few more days.

"General, the envoy of King Huai has arrived." A soldier outside the tent shouted.

"Come in." Xiang Ji cheered up, waved Yu Ji back, and finally came to something to do, directly ignoring An Sheng's request to call him, thinking he could handle it.

It was none other than Lu Chen's father Lu Qing who had just been driven away by Xiang Ji.

"I'm here, Lu Qing, I met the general." Lu Qing made a gesture to kneel down, and moved slowly, waiting for Xiang Ji to say please.

Xiang Ji didn't have such a high level of morality yet, so he felt that even if he said "please get up", it should be after Lu Qing knelt down.So after waiting for half a minute, I finally saw Lu Qing's knee touching the ground. In order to show that he was very stable, he stopped for more than ten seconds and raised his right hand: "Please get up."

Lu Qing knelt reluctantly, always thinking that he would be called up, but he didn't expect not only to kneel, but also to kneel for so long.

"King Huai specifically asked Lu Qing to come and inform the general that King Huai will come to Pengcheng tomorrow, and I hope the general will make preparations as soon as possible." Lu Qing held himself as the envoy of King Huai, with his chin raised high.

"The general knows." Xiang Ji straightened his back, not losing the slightest bit, "Go down."

Lu Qing thought that he would arrange a place to live for himself, but Xiang Ji didn't even mention it. He thought that he might be ready, but he couldn't speak up, so he had to leave.

As a result, Lu Qing was wronged all night in the small tent where the prisoners were held. He hated Xiang Ji so much, but he couldn't swear at people in the middle of the night, otherwise it would be strange not to be thrown out.

The next day, An Sheng was checking the situation of the grain and grass. Xiang Ji was watching the soldiers practicing kung fu on the temporary drill field. When he saw An Sheng's figure in the distance, he ran over happily and accompanied him to see the grain and grass.

"elder brother!"

Xiong Xin's clear voice stunned An Sheng for a moment, thinking he was hallucinating, but he was hugged quickly before he believed it was true, turned around and saw Xiong Xin's small head, which had reached his chin .

"Why are you here?" An Sheng was surprised, why didn't he come to inform in advance, even if Xiong Xin didn't know what to do, Song Yi should understand.

"I heard that the general was seriously injured and died for his country. I came here to inspect it." Xiong Xin put on airs and finished speaking, then turned to look at Song Yi, "Is that so?"

Chen Ying bent slightly and lowered her head: "King Huai is smart."

Xiong Xin narrowed his eyes with a smile: "I asked Lu Qing to tell you yesterday, didn't you see anyone?"

"Lu Qing?" An Sheng also thought of who it was, and looked at Xiang Ji, "Here?"

"Uh..." Xiang Ji completely forgot as soon as Lu Qingren left, and only then saw Xiong Xin and remembered what news he had learned yesterday, "Here we come."

"Didn't you tell me to come over?!" An Sheng was furious, obviously he had promised well before.

"What the general thinks he can solve..." You don't need to make a move—Xiang Ji was interrupted by An Sheng before he finished speaking.

"You solved it? Where did Lu Qing live last night, I don't believe you remembered to arrange it!" An Sheng didn't have any hope for Xiang Ji's public relations ability.

"I..." Xiang Ji was at a loss for words, he really forgot to arrange a place for Lu Qing.

An Sheng knew what was going on just by looking at his expression, and asked the sophomore who was next to him to go to the camp to find out where Lu Qing was, while he and Xiang Yu accompanied Xiong Xin to Xiang Ji's big tent.

As soon as she arrived in the tent, Chen Ying said, "King Huai is going to worship at the general's grave, please arrange it with the general."

Just as Xiang Ji wanted to ask if there was any good arrangement for this, he just kowtowed a few times when An Sheng stepped on his foot.

"Arrangement!" Xiang Ji frowned and looked at An Sheng, he was not very tall, but he had a lot of strength this time, "Go in the afternoon!"

An Sheng laughed dryly——if I don't step on you, something will happen.

Angrily, Lu Qing lifted the curtain and walked in, only bowed to Xiong Xin, completely ignoring Xiang Ji who caused his tragic encounter last night.

Xiang Ji felt nothing, but An Sheng felt that it was necessary to show his deterrent power.

"Lord Lu Qing is the envoy of King Huai. Why did you not pay respects to the general you wanted to make, and so on? Don't you take the general seriously?" An Sheng stared at Lu Qing with sharp eyes.

Lu Qing didn't want to leave An Sheng at first, he was just a little military advisor, but Xiong Xin spoke up.

"Didn't you hear what brother said?"

Lu Qing had no choice but to smash his teeth and swallow it in his stomach, then came out and clasped his fists: "I'm here, Lu Qing, I have seen the general's military adviser."

Xiang Ji didn't know what he was thinking about, so he didn't reply, and was immediately stepped on by An Sheng. He retracted his foot in pain, and replied, "I've seen it before."

An Sheng stood beside Xiang Ji, not answering.

Seeing An Sheng standing, Xiong Xin also stood up and asked An Sheng to sit down.An Sheng couldn't resist him, so he had to sit beside Xiong Xin, and he hugged an arm.

Xiang Ji looked at it and felt uncomfortable, and called An Sheng: "Come."

An Sheng looked at him - unable to leave.

"Come on." Xiang Ji continued, and An Sheng actually imagined a beautiful girl in a brothel standing on the side of the street, waving a small handkerchief, exuding makeup, and inviting people with a charming voice.

The corner of An Sheng's mouth twitched, so he had no choice but to pull out his arm, walked up to Xiang Ji and stood next to Xiang Ji, which was to show his position.Xiang Ji moved to the side and patted the empty space beside him.

An Sheng didn't understand and looked at Xiang Ji.

Impatient, Xiang Ji reached out and pulled An Sheng to sit beside him.An Sheng laughed, and sat down quietly.

In the afternoon, Xiong Xin went to pay respects to Xiang Liang's grave, and even brought Chen Ying and Lu Qing to pay respects.

An Sheng felt that this little boy was actually quite pitiful. The country was wiped out before he had any memory. He went to herd sheep for more than ten years and was dragged back to become King Laoshizi Huai. Do what you can to help him.

"Little military master." Chen Ying walked to An Sheng's side after paying homage, "Chen Ying heard that there are still some people in other places, and asked the little military master to send someone for King Huai to invite them."

An Sheng knew that it must be Chen Ying who asked Xiong Xin to win over all the troops into his own hands, and it was considered for the child's sake, so he agreed without saying anything.

On the way back to the camp, An Sheng was still at the forefront accompanying King Huai, Xiang Ji was only a few feet behind the two of them, and followed closely behind.

An Sheng took the opportunity to help Xiang Yu win over Xiong Xin: "Does King Huai want to assign tasks to various people?"

"En." Xiong Xin nodded like an adult.

"I wonder if King Huai has plans in mind?" An Sheng continued to ask.

Xiong Xin: "Some prototypes."

"Then, can An Sheng ask for convenience?" An Sheng smiled.

"Where do you want to go, brother?" Xiong Xin was very smart, otherwise he would have been tricked by Chen Ying and Lu Qing, and he probably lost his life.

"Just walk into Guanzhong more easily and quickly." An Sheng made a request.

"Then brother, come with me. Although a little slower than them, it's easy." Xiong Xin's eyes lit up.

An Sheng made a look of embarrassment: "King Huai has Chen Ying and Lu Qing as his companions, but General Xiang has an old man by his side. Without An Sheng, he would be bored all day long."

Xiong Xin turned to look at Xiang Ji behind him, and followed closely, wishing to walk side by side, so she gave in to An Sheng: "Okay, I'll go back and have a look."

An Sheng is satisfied, it seems that his face is still worth some money.

Two days later, Yingbo, Lu Chen, and Liu Bang all returned to Xiangji's camp on the west side of Pengcheng. Lu Chen was overjoyed when he saw Lu Qing, and finally found a backer. Lead the troops alone.

Liu Bang has been busy making friends with people around Xiong Xin. Some of the newcomers have not been tortured by An Sheng, and they don't have any inherent impression of Liu Bang, but they know quite a few people.

An Sheng met Ji Bu, a young general in Xiang Liang's army. He seemed to have heard of this name before, and felt that since he could leave his name in history, he must not be a weak character. He immediately searched for the agarwood brand and engraved his name on the back. After sending it over, a general was recruited for Xiang Ji.

All the personnel gathered, all the generals gathered in Xiang Ji's big tent, waiting for King Huai to appear.

Xiong Xin tightly grasped An Sheng's hand, his palm was full of sweat.An Sheng was funny, wasn't he confident before, why did he get nervous at this moment.

An Sheng touched Xiong Xin's little head: "Relax."

Xiong Xin took a few deep breaths, let go of An Sheng's hand abruptly, opened the curtain, strode into the tent, went to Xiang Ji's front chair and sat down, looking down at the people of all colors, looks and personalities, all younger than him. He is big, but the tension can only be in the heart, and the surface should always be calm and composed.

This is the emperor's mission and his sorrow.
