Hearing this, Zhao Lang was slightly startled.

Han Xin was also confused, not because Xiao He said that Zhao Lang was not sincere.

After all, everyone saw Zhao Lang's attitude just now.

I was just thinking, didn’t you say you should take a look first?

How did it suddenly turn into ‘I’m here to vote’ in the blink of an eye?

"Where do you start talking about this?"

Zhao Lang asked puzzledly.

Xiao He looked serious and replied,

"When I came in just now, there was food on the table for one night. That was King Zhao's daily food."

"In order to entertain me and others, Zhao Lang gave him ten days' worth of meat."

"Is that right?"

When Han Xin heard this, his expression changed slightly when he looked at the food and wine in front of him.

Zhao Lang showed a hint of embarrassment and said,

"Mr. Xiao, this..."

Xiao He said,

"Please also ask King Zhao to bring some ordinary food."

Zhao Lang couldn't refuse at this time and said,

"Slave, go get three bowls of potato flour."

The slave quickly delivered three bowls of potato vermicelli.

Looking at the obviously much coarser potato vermicelli in front of him, Xiao He showed a smile and said,

“This is quite filling and tastes good.”

The three of them ate potato vermicelli and talked freely again, but this time, the conversation went much deeper.

We talked about it from morning to noon, Zhao Lang sighed,

"Mr. Xiao is indeed a great talent. From now on, I will have Mr. Lao in charge of military matters!"

Xiao He was stunned when he heard this. Although it was good for him to show his talent, the other party handed over the power too readily!

How long have they known each other?

What if he is just a talker?

So I couldn't help but ask,

"King Zhao, do you believe me so much?"

Zhao Lang waved his hand and said,

"Don't trust people when you hire them, and don't use people when you doubt them. You are a great talent, so that's how it should be!"

Are you kidding? He doesn't dare to use this person, who else dares to use him?

Seeing Zhao Lang's resolute attitude, Xiao He stood up and saluted,

"I will do my best!"

Zhao Lang quickly stood up and helped the other person up, then took out a bag of gold nuggets from his waist and said,

"I, the king, have been negligent today. This money is money for us to drink."

Xiao He did not refuse this time. He looked at each other and smiled at Han Xin, then accepted the money with a smile.

After the few people chatted for a while, Zhao Lang sent the two of them to rest. After all, they had also worked hard all night.

After everything settled, Zhao Lang suddenly smiled.

He couldn't help but be unhappy. Now, he already had Chen Ping, Han Xin, and Xiao He.

There are helpers in both military and domestic affairs.

Even if one day I retreat to the grassland, I will just rely on these talents and add my own potatoes and gunpowder.

For the first time, Zhao Lang had absolute confidence to fight back!

Just when Zhao Lang was in a very happy mood, on the other side, in Xingyang, Xiang Yu was staring at Xiang Zhuang with blood-red eyes, exuding endless power.

Like a furious lion, saying,

"What did you say?!"

Xiang Zhuang was shocked by Xiang Yu's power and took a few steps back. He gritted his teeth and said,

"Ayu, our army was defeated in Dingtao! My uncle...he was also killed by the Qin army!"

"nonsense!"

Xiang Yu roared extremely violently,

"How could my uncle be killed?"

Xiang Yu didn't want to believe this. Although Xiang Liang was not his father, his martial arts and military skills were taught by Xiang Liang.

The relationship between the two is closer than that of father and son.

After he became an adult, Xiang Liang also trained him as the heir of the Xiang family.

But now, such a man who was also a teacher, father and friend was actually killed?!

Xiang Zhuang also said with tears at this time,

"Ayu, I know you feel uncomfortable, but now the Xiang family is relying on you."

"The Qin army has now captured Dingtao and is heading towards Xingyang. You must make a decision early!"

After hearing this, even if Xiang Yu didn't want to believe it, he knew that his uncle was no longer here.

At this time, Fan Zeng on the side said with an extremely serious face,

"Ayu, now that the Qin army is powerful, we should retreat to Chu, gather the army, and then plan for further effects!"

Fan Zeng had previously warned Xiang Liang to be careful of the Qin army's deception.

But I didn't expect that the Qin army's counterattack would be fatal!

In one battle, Xiang Liang was killed!

Now, they only have 50,000 to 60,000 Chu troops in their hands.

And most of them are civilian men recruited, so they cannot be the opponents of the Qin army!

"Retreat?"

Hearing Fan Zeng's words, Xiang Yu's eyes flashed with violence and he shouted,

"I want the Qin army to pay with blood!"

Fan Zeng frowned, looked at Xiang Yu who was almost going crazy and said,

"Ayu! The Qin army is in full swing. I'll wait..."

But before he could finish speaking, Xiang Yu ordered,

"Send the order! Eight thousand Jiangdong cavalrymen, follow me to raid Dingtao!"

"Xiang Zhuang, you and the others will come after you!"

After saying that, without waiting for anyone else, he took his big halberd and walked outside.

Seeing the powerful Xiang Yu, no one dared to step forward to dissuade him.

Not long after, the sound of dispatching troops and generals came from outside.

Everyone in the room was stunned, and Xiang Zhuang was even more stunned.

Dingtao is hundreds of miles away from here. With eight thousand cavalry rushing over here, can we still fight?

Besides, I ran back all night on horseback, but it would take several days of running with infantry to get there!

There are also supplies of food and supplies, how should I arrange them?

But he didn't dare to say these words. At that time, he was really afraid that Xiang Yu would kill him!

Fortunately, Fan Zeng, who was sitting in the upper position, quickly said,

"General Xiang, please work harder. Lead the elite of the army and set off immediately with three days of food and grass."

"I will lead the army with the baggage and food supplies and then support!"

After a short time, Fan Zeng had arranged everything. Xiang Zhuang breathed a sigh of relief. It would be nice if someone arranged it!

He quickly took the order, turned around and walked outside. He saw a few familiar figures and shouted quickly,

"Liu Bang! Follow me back to Dingtao!"
