The Conqueror Isn’t Alone

Xiang Boyuan wanted to make a more thorough plan, but he couldn't care about that at the moment.

He believed that he was Xiang Yu's uncle after all and had made great contributions. As long as he refused to admit it, even if others slandered him, Xiang Yu would not believe them and he could get away with it.

The ovary is different.

He had witnessed with his own eyes the murderous intention shown by Xiang Yu at the banquet that day - if Lu Bu, who was full of conspiracy and scheming, had not had some bad ideas and stepped in to stop him, he would not have dared to stop him directly.

Knowing clearly that Xiang Yu was violent towards his enemies, how could he sit back and watch his ovary stand under a dangerous wall?

When he thought of Zifang's kindness in saving his life, Xiang Bo felt more and more obligated.

He was cruel and decided not to hesitate. As the saying goes, it is better to choose a day than to hit it, so she simply chose the moment when Xiang Yu had summoned all his ministers and the guard was most empty.

In order to avoid attracting attention, he only ordered twenty personal soldiers and quietly went to the cell.

After going down to the prison, facing the greedy jailers who came up to him, he only gave orders with his eyes. The soldiers behind him immediately understood, and when the jailers bent over to salute, they killed them all neatly and touched them out. key.

Zhang Liang, who was meditating in the cell with his eyes closed, could not have missed these sounds. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Xiang Bo, whom he had just met yesterday, looking nervous. He lowered his head to open the lock and asked hurriedly: Is the ovary safe? Are you okay?

Zhang Liang was surprised and said: Brother Xiang, this is...

King Xiang has a violent temper and has murderous intentions for the ovary. Uncle Xiang finally opened the heavy lock, breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly explained: Brother Yu will never see the ovary even if he risks his life. If you are coerced by him again...the lock has been opened, dear brother, follow Brother Fool!

The incident happened suddenly. Zhang Liang was as resourceful as Zhang Liang. In addition to forcing him to suppress his uneasiness, Xiang Bo dragged him out of the cell. He also put on a Chu soldier's uniform over his prison clothes and joined the personal escort team. Once outside the prison, it was too late to come up with a better suggestion.

This was the first time that Xiang Bo directly violated Xiang Yu's wishes and committed a traitorous act without even a decent fig leaf except for the title of repaying the favor of saving his life. You can imagine the tension in his heart.

The group of people walked out of the prison as if nothing had happened and headed towards the palace gate.

Even though Xiang Bo is not as close to Xiang Yu as he used to be recently, he is still the most respected and dignified Zuo Yin in many years. Therefore, when he walked quickly towards the palace gate with his entourage with a gloomy face, Chu Chu on the way Although the soldiers were confused, no one dared to ask questions.

And because Xiang Bo usually gave people the impression of being easy-going and friendly, his sudden sullen expression attracted Chu Bing's attention. He had no time to pay attention to the unfamiliar face that blended in with his entourage, as well as his out-of-place gait.

The string in Xiang Bo's mind was always tight, and he walked quickly along the way. The sun was high above his head, the weather was hot, and he was already sweating profusely in his general uniform.

He didn't speak. Zhang Liang was still digesting the sudden change of situation and was speechless.

After all, he had been in prison for half a month. Although his spirit could not be called depressed, he was still struggling to adapt to the dazzling sunlight at this time, trying his best to walk in line with the gait of the soldiers around him, so as not to show too much weakness in his steps. .

From the perspective of this group of people who were well aware of the seriousness of what they had done, this familiar journey seemed extremely long at this time. After an unknown amount of time, Nangongmen, who had the fewest guards, finally Finally appeared from afar.

Almost as soon as he looked at the familiar palace gate, Xiang Bo, who had been anxious all the time, suddenly relaxed, forced a smile on his face, turned his head slightly, looked behind Zhang Liang and said: Son——

Before the word 'fang' could be uttered, everyone heard a sharp sound piercing the air. At the same time, a slender shadow appeared out of nowhere and flew down quickly, as if it were dangerous. It almost happened to brush against the cheek of Uncle Xiang, who had just turned his head.

Before it scratched the oily skin on his face and caused a wisp of blood to spill out, the slender shadow that carried a huge amount of power and appeared to be extremely fast continued to move forward in everyone's peripheral vision.

——It's like lightning piercing the clouds, and like fire falling to the ground.

It wasn't until it was embedded in the solid brick a foot away from the tip of Xiang Bo's boot that it finally stopped.

It was at the moment when it completely stopped that everyone who was caught off guard saw its true face.

——This is an ordinary arrow used by the Chu army, but the sharp arrow has been completely buried in the adobe bricks, and the wisp of white smoke it stirred up has not yet stopped.

Such accurate arrows and such arrogant warnings frightened them who were already uneasy.

Found! ! !

Xiang Bo felt as if he had been hit in the head with a sledgehammer on the spot, his mind was buzzing, and he was covered in sweat.

One moment, I thought I was progressing smoothly and was successful, but the next moment I was blocked by this threatening arrow. The feeling of despair brought about by the ups and downs is very difficult for people to endure, especially for Xiang Bo who has always had smooth sailing?

He couldn't care less about his life-and-death friend at this moment. He was like a rabid dog driven crazy. He looked around uncontrollably on the spot, trying to find the person who shot the arrow, and yelled: Yes. Who?! Who?!”

Raise your head, a playful whistle sounded, followed by a voice that was extremely lazy and revealed the master's insouciance. It was in sharp contrast to the sharpness of the arrow just now and was still fresh in Xiang Bo's memory. It sounded far away from the west: Your grandfather is here first.

Uncle Xiang gasped, turned around suddenly, and looked up towards the source of the sound!

The man was sitting on the eaves of a palace a hundred and fifty steps away, with his legs crossed in a majestic manner and his expression

” Isn’t the contemptuous and proud tall Chu general Lu Bu who made Xiang Bo hate him deeply? !

He was holding a bow and arrow and was humming an unknown weird tune. He took another arrow from the quiver and unhurriedly put it on the string.

impossible!

Uncle Xiang's eyes widened and he blurted out!

When talking about marksmen, the first thing that comes to mind is Yang Youji from the previous dynasty.

The power of his impressive shooting with a hundred steps piercing the Yangtze is talked about by the world, and also makes the soldiers fascinated.

He once witnessed Lu Bu holding a broken guqin and smashing the King of Chu's head with no expression on his face; he also witnessed Lu Bu holding a long sword he had just picked up and killing one for a hundred in less than a cup of tea. The bravery of more than 60 people; the body of the most valued general around Liu Bang was inspected afterwards, including Fan Kuai, who was known as the first warrior beside Liu Bang.

But what he never dared to imagine in his dreams was that there was someone who was so gifted and blessed that he not only had a superb long sword, but also had a powerful shooting skill that could rival Yang Youji in such a deep and hidden way. , it wasn’t until today that he showed his edge!

How could he dare to believe it, and how could he be willing to believe it? ?

When Lu Bu heard Xiang Bo's question, he was not annoyed at all. He even raised the corners of his lips slightly and raised his eyebrows in a smile: Oh?

If he knew what Bo Xiang was thinking, he would definitely feel that these words were unreasonable and simply incomprehensible.

How could he deliberately hide it? It’s just that I didn’t have a chance to show it.

Moreover, when a person is under the roof, he can do less if he can do less. He is not willing to be idle to show that he has other special skills - from how he treats Gao Fuyi, we can tell that the capable work hard These four words come.

To put it bluntly, he only temporarily surrendered to Xiang Yu to kill Liu Bang, and he didn't really want to serve him to the death. It was more than enough for him to be a young general who could lead troops to kill Liu Bang. Why bother to work so hard, work so hard, and ask people to do it? Split them up and serve as several servants?

After Xiang Bo's roar, Lu Bu didn't bother to defend himself.

When I was at the camp gate shooting the tip of the painted halberd a hundred steps away, the turtle grandson hadn't even come out yet... he had been dead for hundreds of years.

Although he disliked that the bow and arrow he temporarily borrowed from Han Xin were too fragile, and he couldn't use 80% of his strength to avoid breaking the bow. He could only use a six-pointer with discretion, but he was unambiguous in using it.

His response to this was to directly put down his crossed legs, bend his bow and nock an arrow, narrow his eyes slightly, aim at Uncle Xiang who was still stunned in place, and shouted: Go!

A sharp arrow shadow similar to the one before was as fast as a shooting star and as cold as frost, and it unceremoniously rushed straight to Xiang Bo's front door again!

Xiang Bo questioned, but he understood in his heart, so he was more or less prepared.

Even so, when Lu Bu fired the second arrow openly in front of him, he still couldn't dodge!

As soon as the swish sound came out, when Xiang Bo yelled and fell to the ground awkwardly in a panic, Lu Bu only raised his eyebrows in surprise and muttered: Too slow! He eats so big, but Could it be that he is older than that old man Fan Zeng if he has such a virtuous attitude?

——Compared to the sharp arrow, Xiang Bo's reaction was indeed too slow.

When Xiang Bo stood up in cold sweat with the help of his entourage, he didn't even bother to pat the dirt on his body, but he took a deep breath because of the sharp pain coming from his scalp.

Just like the first arrow that provocatively passed by his cheek, this second arrow from the world's unique marksman seemed to be aimed at his appearance, but in fact it was only aimed at his scalp. .

A large cut was made on his scalp, and when it was soaked with sweat, the burning pain almost forced Uncle Xiang to shed a few tears on the spot.

While covering his wound, he didn't dare to look at Lu Bu anymore. He only lowered his head to chase the landing point of the second arrow.

What frightened him was that after the second arrow missed it again, it landed precisely one foot behind his heels. The force it carried was stronger than the previous one, and it hit the floor tiles. A large piece was broken like a spider web.

Two arrows shot forward and backward, blocking the path one foot in front and back of him.

Xiang Bo's soldiers, who also took this scene into consideration, had shock on their faces and were too frightened to move.

It was obviously just two simple arrows, but it had forced him to this point, and made him dare not move forward even half a step.

Even though he was in excruciating pain, he also knew that it would be easy for Lu Bu to kill him with his superb shooting skills, but for some reason, he just kept playing tricks on him...

What Xiang Bo didn't understand, Zhang Liang couldn't understand.

He had been silent and ignored Xiang Bo, who was sitting slumped on the ground and was being teased by Lu Bu like a trapped animal. He only raised his head. No matter how uncomfortable he was, he still braved the sting of the burn and looked at the hot place. The sun looked towards the direction of Bashu again.

He sighed softly, frowning slightly, hiding his heart full of reluctance. When he opened his eyes again, there was peace and indifference.

There is only one possibility for Lu Bu to shoot arrows to stop Xiang Bo without killing him.

That is...

Just when Lu Bu was weighing his quiver and wondering if he wanted to shoot another arrow to scare Xiang Bo, he caught sight of something from the corner of his eye.

Got it.

When Lu Bu saw that the victim had arrived, he stopped staying. He stood up leisurely, turned his back on his body, and rolled back into the fence neatly.

Although it took a little effort, Xiang Bo was still scared to death, and after he found someone who helped the enemy escape, regardless of what happened to Xiang Bo, he admired the miserable state of the enemy with his own eyes. At least it was very enjoyable.

——Hehe, if Uncle Xiang wants to complain, he has to complain.

Xiang Yu has a dog-like temper. I was so tormented that I was startled, and even went to listen to the chatter of those scholars for a long time.

He's so angry. If he can't take it out on that idiot overlord, he can always take it out on that bullshit traitor, Uncle Xiang, right?

Lu Bu retired with great satisfaction, feeling refreshed.

What was left to the people present was a horrific scene like purgatory.

After receiving the report from Han Xin, Xiang Yu, who had a dull look on his face, rushed here with his last bit of luck, but only gained the words both the person and the stolen goods, and the evidence is conclusive.

The moment Bo Xiang saw the familiar stalwart figure, he also figured out the key.

His face was ashen, knowing that he had no way of denying it, he bowed his head silently, and knelt down tremblingly in front of Xiang Yu, who had an expressionless face and an unpredictable mood.

Uncle, Xiang Yu was silent for a long time. He didn't call Uncle Xiang to get up, but he showed a trace of confusion in front of everyone and asked softly: ...Why?

Since the Xiang family was convicted one after another, he had been wandering around with his uncle Xiang Liang in his early years, hiding in Tibet, and he had become a suspect.

Among the close confidants who had been with the army for many years, he had doubted Fan Zeng, Zhongli Mei, Ting Bu, Long Qie, and many, many people.

——Only the one who has never doubted his blood relative is his younger uncle Xiang Bo.

However, it was his most valued uncle who betrayed him, and the evidence was conclusive and beyond doubt.

Facing this simple question, Xiang Bo, who was filled with only fear, finally felt a little bit ashamed and a little bit regretful.

It's just that at this moment, even he himself doesn't understand why he is so obsessed with his life-and-death acquaintance, and for the sake of his children and relatives who have not yet seen a shadow, that he completely sacrifices his nephew who relies on him the most. Betrayed...
