Han Xin's sword tip met Zhongli Mei's neck coldly, its speed was extremely fast, its sword force was bizarre, shocking everyone present. The move of drawing the sword, releasing the sword, and controlling the enemy in one breath, all of them were completely unable to see his movements, the attack was already complete.
With Xiang Yu's ferocity, Li Yueyao's intelligence, and the courage of the Five Tigers General, the entire audience was quite surprised. This Han Xin's skills were indeed unfathomable, and she was even good at utilizing the environment, controlling the tempo of the entire audience.
Han Xin withdrew his aura and sheathed his sword. He cupped his hands and said humbly: "General Zhong Li, you have let me win."
Zhongli Mei looked at him dumbfoundedly. He found it hard to believe, and his eyes sparkled as he stared at Han Xin, sizing him up. After a while, he replied, "Warrior Han's swordsmanship is unfathomable, Zhongli Mei is convinced.
Han Xin did not dare to be arrogant, and immediately replied politely: "To be able to befriend General Zhongli Mei, it was Han Xin's fortune.
Zhongli Mei waved his hand, and laughed: "How can that be, if it is not so, I would not be able to test your true abilities, and would not be able to enjoy the competition so much, I can make it, haha."
Han Xin felt grateful in his heart, for this battle, was related to his future prospects and path of battle. It was rare that Zhongli Mei was so straightforward, and did not care about the victor or loser, making the atmosphere between them extremely awkward.
Between simple drawing of the sword and drawing of the sword, victory was already in his grasp. Before the sword technique reached a certain level of mastery, he would not be able to use it. Of course, controlling the environment was also essential to the opponent's underestimation.
Li Yueyao was the first to applaud Han Xin's excellent swordsmanship, the rest of the officers immediately reacted, applauding and cheering, cheering for the two's brilliant match.
Fan Zeng smiled as he stood up, carrying two glasses of wine, and walked to the two people's side, and said indifferently: "The two warriors have fought a great battle, which has made our blood boil, made us stand out among ourselves, and gave you two cups of wine, in the hope that we can befriend you, and in the future, help each other out on the battlefield!"
Han Xin and Zhongli Mei took the wine and drank it all, happily accepting the praise of the crowd.
Fan Zeng turned around and looked at Xiang Yu, saying, "Chief General, you can now bestow Han Xin the title of marshal, right?"
Xiang Yu was actually thinking about Han Xin's victory, but he actually lost to the talented girl. She was slightly unhappy, her face slightly darkened, and nodded helplessly: "Alright, since Han Xin is intelligent and brave, with the ability of a commander, this general will temporarily bestow you with the post of Great General Feng, leading fifty thousand troops to guard the Hangu Pass, to block Long Tianyu's and the other armies' attacks. Zhongli Mei will be the deputy general, while Teng Gang, Teng Yan and Cao Jiu will be the helpers, waiting for Han Xin's commands, you cannot disobey."
Xiang Yu had given him the Tiger Tally and the Commander Seal. From this moment onwards, Han Xin was the Great General of the Chu Army, someone who had risen from the middle man to the general position in one fell swoop. This was something that was rarely seen in the army.
Zhongli Mei went forward and put his arm around Han Xin's shoulders, and said with a smile: "Brother Han, Shangguan Lu, don't forget to do me a favor!"
Han Xin was immediately infected as he held Zhongli Mei's hand and said excitedly: "No matter what, Han Xin will always see Zhongli Mei as Big Brother. In the future, when we enter the battlefield, I hope that Big Brother can help me!"
Zhongli Mei was originally joking, but when he suddenly saw Han Xin revealing his deep brotherly feelings, he couldn't help but move, and sincerely said: "Good brother, in the future, you, Han Xin, will be my, Zhongli Mei's, sworn brother.
Han Xin was so excited that he couldn't say anything. This meant that he had already obtained the recognition of the military. In the future, when they transferred troops and generals, his position and prestige in the Chu Army Camp would be consolidated.
Fan Zeng sent someone to set up a seat for Han Xin. After Han Xin took his seat, he first accepted the toasts from some of the generals. After three rounds of wine, Fan Zeng asked him: "Facing Long Tianyu who is outside of Hangu Pass, what plan does General Han have to defeat the enemy?"
Han Xin felt everyone's gaze on his, and then looked at the talented girl, and suddenly became enigmatic, and smiled: "I do not have a detailed plan yet, but I still need to see how Long Tianyu will send out the troops, and then take measures to destroy them one by one. As long as we can hold on for one for a month, when the Chu Army breaks through, Long Tianyu will definitely retreat and defend the Pengcheng, and at that time, it will not be too late for Long Tianyu to win!"
Xiang Yu was still a little worried, she said to Han Xin: "How much do you know about Long Tianyu? He is not easy to deal with, before battle, you must have the confidence and courage to strengthen yourself. Many generals heard that you have to confront Long Tianyu first, before you fight, be mentally prepared!"
Han Xin disapproved, coldly snorted, and said angrily: "Long Tianyu? "Hmph, there is an unbreakable grudge between him and I. The reason why I, Han, want to join the army was completely forced by him. I swear to deal with him, defeat his allied army, and let him rest easy!"
Once he said that, everyone looked at him curiously. They did not know what grudges he had with Long Tianyu.
Li Yueyao was also surprised, thinking that Long Lang did not mention that he had a grudge with her?
Fan Zeng was secretly happy when he heard this, and said: "Oh? General Han, whatever grudge you have, just say it. I will help you fulfill your wish, others are afraid of him, only Chu Army is not afraid of him. " With just a few words, he had pushed Han Xin to the brink of a confrontation. There was no power that could make others more eager to fight than hatred.
"I, Han, am in Huai Yin and have not interacted with the outside world for a long time. Half a year ago, two swordsmen suddenly came to the street and asked about me. At that time, seeing that I was dressed in rags, that I was extremely hungry and sickly, they mocked and ridiculed me, and even shamed me in front of everyone."
"Ahhhh!" Everyone was shocked, the humiliation at the bottom was a great disrespect to men, they thought, was Han Xin really humiliated?
Han Xin continued to speak, "That day, I was furious in front of everyone on the street, and I wanted to pull out my sword to stab them, but I would definitely be hunted down by Qin Soldier Huai Yin. I could only bear the humiliation and crawl past the two swordsmen … After the two swordsmen left, I secretly followed them and disappeared into the wilderness. After that, I found out the symbol of the allied army and the Armour from the two of them, and found out that it was actually the Iron Guard who was by Long Tianyu's side. Unexpectedly, after a month, two more waves of strangers came to Huai Yin to find out where I was, and they were all eliminated by me.
It turned out that Han Xin was originally a descendant of an important official of Korea and after the unification of the six nations, his family was once wanted. Han Xin lived alone in Huai Yin for many years, but because he was a proud and upright clan member and could not be a customer, he could not manage agriculture, and had lived a poor and destitute life, until one day half a year ago, when he was unable to endure his hunger. He stole a bamboo from a girl's basket and starved himself.
When Long Tianyu sent the two of them away, because it was not easy to prove Han Xin's identity, he did not give any more warnings to the Iron Guards. When the two saw Han Xin's shabby and obscene appearance, they did not believe that he was the person Han Xin was looking for, with such a high number of names, after confirming that it was not the case, they humiliated him in public, and when the two of them went to search for him, they were killed secretly. After two waves of investigation, Han Xin mistook it to be a crime.
No one thought that he and Long Tianyu had such grudges, but they just could not understand, Long Tianyu was the most trusted general in the world, how would he send people to deal with an unknown, destitute person?
Li Yueyao's jade cheeks thought for a bit, and then flashed with a sacred radiance, untainted by the temperament of a mortal, she was ice and snow intelligent, and immediately guessed that there was some misunderstanding, she definitely had to find an opportunity to explain themselves, and to recruit this person, I'm afraid that the higher my position in the Chu Army, the more benefits I have, the more I will not easily give up on the Chu Army.
When Xiang Yu heard that there was enmity between him and Long Tianyu, she immediately had a good impression of Han Xin, and appreciated him greatly. She was secretly delighted in her heart: "Long Tianyu's enemy is my, Xiang Yu's, friend." He turned to Han Xin and said: "Since this is the case, General Han, you can rest assured. With your skill and intelligence, you will definitely be able to make Long Tianyu suffer, while I can attack the Xianyang peacefully. I hope that you all will stay here and guard the Hangu Pass, do not disappoint me!"
"Yes sir!" The generals agreed in unison, their fighting spirit soaring.
When Li Yueyao walked out of the banquet hall, she looked up and saw that Leng Yue was floating in the sky, looking lonely and beautiful, just like her current state of mind, "Long Lang, with Han Xin as guard, the Chu Army is about to attack the Xianyang, and if Xiang Yu were to take the first step and overthrow second place, he would be the King in name, and will even tarnish my reputation and integrity, Yueyao is truly worried, can Husband feel it?"
