Chapter 1327 Overlord Xiang Yu
Yang Feng was bored, so he started talking: "When Xiang Yu finally fled to Wujiang, he only had 28 riders left. At that time, there were still several thousand Han soldiers chasing him. Xiang Yu stopped at this time and spoke to more than 20 people."
“He said: It has been eight years since I started my army. I have personally fought in more than seventy battles and have defeated all the enemies I have encountered. These people have all surrendered and I have never experienced failure. That is why I have been able to dominate the world.
However, I was trapped here today. This is the will of heaven, not because of my poor fighting ability. Today I am determined to fight with you and hope to show you three victories: breaking through the encirclement, killing the enemy general, and cutting down the enemy flag. After that, you will know that this is the will of heaven, not because of my fighting ability. "
When Yang Feng said this, his tone became somewhat emotional.
Zhao Zhuwei and the others opened their eyes wide and asked quickly, "What's next?"
"He divided his cavalry into four groups, facing four directions. The Han army surrounded them in several layers. King Xiang said to his cavalry, 'I will take down the first enemy general for you.'
He ordered the cavalry to charge down from all directions and agreed to meet in three places on the east side of the mountain. Then King Xiang shouted loudly and charged down, and the Han army was defeated. King Xiang really killed a Han general.
At this time, Yang Xi, Marquis of Chiquan, was the cavalry commander and pursued King Xiang. King Xiang opened his eyes wide and roared, and both the Marquis of Chiquan and his horse were frightened and retreated several miles. King Xiang and his cavalry met at three places.
The Han army did not know where King Xiang was, so they divided their army into three parts and surrounded them again. King Xiang then galloped and entered the Han army again, beheaded another captain and killed hundreds of people, then gathered his cavalry again, losing only two cavalrymen. "
Yang Feng continued like a storyteller: "After this battle, King Xiang planned to cross the Wujiang River to the east."
"The chief of Wujiang River waited for the boat to dock and said to King Xiang, 'Although Jiangdong is small, it has a radius of a thousand miles and a population of several hundred thousand. It can also be called a king. I hope the king will cross the river quickly. Now I am the only one with a boat. If the Han army comes, there will be no way to cross the river.'"
"King Xiang smiled and said, 'If Heaven wants me to perish, why should I cross the river? Besides, I and 8,000 Jiangdong men crossed the river and headed west, but now no one has returned. Even if the people of Jiangdong pity me and let me be king, how can I face them? Even if they don't say anything, won't I feel ashamed in my heart?'"
Yang Feng's expression was somewhat moved, as if he also saw the former overlord before he committed suicide.
Before I knew it, quite a few people had gathered nearby to listen to the story.
They were all looking at Yang Feng impatiently.
Zhao Zhuwei urged, "Keep talking."
"King Xiang said to the guard, 'I know you are a loyal and honest man. I have raised this horse for five years. It is invincible and once traveled a thousand miles a day. I cannot bear to kill it, so I will give it to you.' He ordered the cavalry to dismount and fight the Han army's pursuers with short weapons in hand."
Yang Feng's tone gradually became depressed, and he continued: "In this battle, Xiang Yu killed hundreds of Han soldiers alone. Xiang Yu was also wounded in more than a dozen places. He turned around and saw the Han army's cavalry Sima Lu Matong, and said, 'Aren't you an old acquaintance of mine?'"
"Lü Matong knew Xiang Yu and said to Wang Yi beside him, 'This is King Xiang.' King Xiang then said, 'I heard that the King of Han offered a reward of a thousand gold coins for my head and a fief of ten thousand households, so I will do you a favor.' Then he cut his own throat and died."
Yang Feng sighed and said, "In this battle, all those who got a portion of Xiang Yu's body were appointed generals and given titles of nobility. This shows the status of Xiang Yu in the eyes of the Han army at that time."
His tone was emotional.
"I didn't expect that the King of Chu would not even have a complete body in the end."
Gao Ronghai was also moved at this time.
Zhao Zhuwei listened, but was puzzled: "You just said that in Xiang Yu's last battle, he killed hundreds of Han soldiers alone? Is he still a normal person?"
"It is recorded in history books. According to official history, Xiang Yu, the King of Chu, is the most powerful general in history."
Yang Feng shook his head and said, "Other people's fighting ability is overestimated because of fiction in novels or operas, but only the King of Chu Xiang Yu has truly left the most brilliant achievements and personal abilities in history books, otherwise how could he be revered for more than two thousand years."
His words were full of admiration for King Xiang's abilities.
The people around, even the boss who came to deliver food, stopped at this time and listened to Yang Feng telling this story.
Apparently, heroic stories seem to be so attractive no matter what time it is.
But soon, someone realized the problem.
"Since you said Xiang Yu was so powerful, why did he lose in the end?"
A bystander asked a soul-searching question at this moment.
Yang Feng shook his head and said, "Individual strength does not represent the cohesion and strength of the team. Victory in war does not mean the success of the final strategy. He was always winning, but lost in the end, which is a strategic failure."
"So where did he fail?"
"Perhaps it's because he thinks he's strong enough to the point of being stubborn and self-willed."
Yang Feng shook his head and said, "An invincible overlord, his personal ability is too strong, so he feels that he does not need others, nor does he need strategy, because wherever he goes, he brings victory."
There seemed to be a hint of sadness in Yang Feng's words.
But soon, he realized a problem.
With so many people gathered around, I originally wanted to have a quiet chat with Gao Ronghai for a while, but I'm afraid I won't have the chance anymore.
As the meal came to an end, the boss seemed to appreciate Yang Feng very much and gave them a free meal, which seemed to be the fee for listening to the book.
A few people walked on the street after having a midnight snack, like four homeless people strolling on the street.
But no one knows that the net worth of any one of these four people is terrifyingly high.
After walking for a while, Yang Feng started to complain gloomily, saying, "I shouldn't have said it if I had known earlier. There were so many people surrounding me just now. If someone didn't know, they would have thought I was setting up a stall and performing crosstalk."
"Hehe, don't be so unhappy, at least you saved money, didn't you? In the end, the boss not only waived our bill, but also packed a portion for us, so we can eat it when we get home."
Zhao Zhuwei chuckled.
Liu Qinglan was much more sensible and said, "Zhu Wei, let's go buy something to drink in front? I ate too much barbecue just now and I have a bit of heartburn."
"Okay, Yang Feng, do you two want to drink?"
"Get me some juice."
"Then you two just wait."
Zhao Zhuwei and Liu Qinglan walked towards the convenience store in the distance.
Yang Feng watched the two of them leave before turning to look at Gao Ronghai who had been waiting for him to speak.
"What are you doing lately?"
Yang Feng asked as if he was just chatting.
Gao Ronghai laughed and said, "What else can I do? My hometown is undergoing a major development. I have also recently invested in some businesses in my hometown and have invested all the money and dividends I earned previously."
"Well, you won't lose money investing there."
Yang Feng hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "I know which family those Japanese people who are causing trouble for you are from."
