"Guards!"
"Here!"
"Send a letter to Xiangyu. Tell him that his second father is in our hands. Ask him to exchange for Han Xin. Otherwise, Fan Zeng will die in Anyang. "
"Yes, Sir!"
Exchanging Fan Zeng for Han Xin was not a bad deal.
After Fan Zeng was taken away, Ouyang Shuo held a discussion with the others before dismissing the meeting.
Anyang was now rich in resources and a strong military force. Ouyang Shuo was confident that even if Xiangyu personally led an attack, Anyang could hold out for a few days.
The army guarding Anyang consisted of 140,000 soldiers from Wang Li's army, 10,000 from the Imperial Guard, and 2,400 from the Featherwood Guards, a total of 160,000 soldiers.
The 500 elites brought by Baihua and Feng Qiuhuang were basically wiped out. Ouyang Shuo simply removed them from the fighting force and focused on protecting the two women.
The two generals, Cao Can and Zhou Bo, could only serve as guards for the time being.
Similarly, Xiahou Ying stayed by Ouyang Shuo's side as a personal guard.
This was the good thing about the game. As long as a general recognized a master, they would not betray him. Naturally, Ouyang Shuo did not have to worry that Xiahou Ying would kill him while he was asleep to avenge his former master.
The core of the army was still Xiao He.
Taking advantage of his free time, Ouyang Shuo sought out Xiao He several times to discuss the territory.
Yes, territory.
Ouyang Shuo no longer had much suspense about the Battle of Giant Deer. His mind was already focused on the changes and arrangements of the main map after the battle.
The current Xiao He was far from being as powerful as the Three Heroes of Han in history.
However, Ouyang Shuo was not worried at all.
As soon as they returned to the main map, Gaia would naturally revise the subdued historical figures so that they would be at their peak level.
In the main camp of the Revolutionary Army.
Xiangyu was shocked and angry when he received the letter.
As expected, everything was as he had predicted.
While the feudal lords were still arguing, Bai Qi's butcher's knife had already fallen.
It was too late.
Xiangyu was dejected.
Xiangyu did not object to exchanging Han Xin for Fan Zeng. No matter what, Fan Zeng was his second father. He had to save him. Most importantly, the Revolutionary Army was in a desperate situation after their rations were robbed.
Their plans for hegemony came to nothing.
"Guards!"
"Here!"
"Bring Han Xin to me."
"Yes, sir!"
The guard recognized Han Xin. After all, Han Xin had come to Xiangyu's tent several times to speak to him, but he had always been rejected.
After a while, Han Xin was tied up and brought into the tent.
Upon closer inspection, Han Xin's expression was unusually calm. Han Xin had naturally heard about what had happened in the army over the past two days, and he seemed to have already predicted today's outcome.
Xiangyu looked up at Han Xin with a complicated expression.
For a long time, Xiangyu did not speak, as if he wanted to say something.
Seeing this, Han Xin smiled.
"General, there is only one way to turn the tables, and that is to create the illusion of peace talks during the exchange of captives. In fact, it is a desperate battle. You will attack Anyang City with all the strength of the army.
With Han Xin's intelligence, he had long noticed Xiangyu's indescribable feelings.
Han Xin's judgment had been verified several times, so Xiangyu naturally wanted to hear Han Xin's opinion. Unfortunately, he had rejected Han Xin's suggestions several times and even mocked Han Xin.
Based on Xiangyu's character, how could he open his mouth?
Xiangyu's expression became even more complicated when he heard that.
After a while, he shook his head and said, "That's Second Father. I can't disregard his life."
"Alas!"
Han Xin let out a long sigh and did not speak.
What a woman's benevolence!
The next day, Han Xin was tied up and sent to Anyang City.
Ouyang Shuo kept his promise and immediately let Fan Zeng go.
"Untie General Han."
"Yes!"
Although Han Xin was captured, his expression was unusually calm.
"General, please sit down!"
Hearing this, Han Xin calmly sat down below.
"General, I have admired your name for a long time. Please forgive me if I have neglected you."
Ouyang Shuo was very polite to Han Xin.
Han Xin did not express an opinion.
Ouyang Shuo's expression changed when he saw this. "Did Di Chen send an invitation to you?"
"Yes!"
"Why didn't you agree?"
Ouyang Shuo looked nervous. He was really afraid that Han Xin would say something extraordinary.
"There is no other reason. The timing is not right."
"Hmm?"
"If Di Chen could take Anyang City, I would have agreed. Unfortunately, he didn't."
"…"
Ouyang Shuo was speechless. That was close. Di Chen almost succeeded. He could not imagine what kind of waves Di Chen would cause in the north if he had two generals, Lian Po and Han Xin.
Fortunately, Bai Qi was more skillful.
"What do you think about the Lord of Martial Peace's plan?"
Ouyang Shuo changed the topic.
Han Xin said lightly. "Not bad."
"That simple?"
"That simple."
Ouyang Shuo's mouth twitched. Han Xin was not convinced. If Han Xin was in charge of the revolutionary army, the situation would be unpredictable.
"General, are you willing to take up a post in Shanhai City?"
Ouyang Shuo asked carefully. He was really worried that Han Xin would refuse.
Compared to Di Chen, Ouyang Shuo was more attractive to historical talents. The characteristics of Shanhai City was also not something that Handan City could compare to.
Ouyang Shuo still did not have full confidence.
"Yes!"
"Cough." Ouyang Shuo choked.
Please, you are a Divine General. Shouldn't you be more reserved?
"You don't understand?"
"A little."
Ouyang Shuo admitted honestly that he did not expect Han Xin to agree so readily.
"I know a little about the art of judging people. The Marquis has the Emperor's Qi. He is a rare wise ruler. I have been looking for a wise ruler everywhere. Now that I have met him, what reason do I have to refuse? "
Ouyang Shuo heard this and suddenly understood.
Had the Emperor's Qi already taken root in his body?
If Han Xin did not say it, Ouyang Shuo would not have believed it.
He only knew that the Golden Qilin Seal had become more and more unpredictable after he extracted the dragon soul from Liu Bang. When Ouyang Shuo practiced the Inner Canon of the Yellow Emperor, he could vaguely feel that he had established a mysterious connection with the seal.
Other than that, Wang Feng and the other generals were even more in awe of Ouyang Shuo.
It seemed that all this was the effect of the Emperor's Qi.
Ouyang Shuo's luck and characteristics were undergoing some mysterious transformation. This transformation, because it affected the spiritual level, would also have an interactive effect on reality.
It was just that he did not know what kind of state it would eventually become.
The difference between Ouyang Shuo and Di Chen was vividly demonstrated.
One tried his best but could not get what he wanted, while the other made a Divine General submit with just a few words.
Could it be that this was the legendary aura of a king?
Ouyang Shuo thought maliciously.
Ouyang Shuo was naturally very happy to be able to subdue Han Xin.
In this battle, he had won Xiao He in literature and Han Xin in martial arts.
Of the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty, Ouyang Shuo had won two. What was there to be dissatisfied with?
"General!"
Ouyang Shuo bowed to Han Xin as a form of greeting.
Han Xin turned sideways and then solemnly bowed. "Greetings, Marquis!"
At this point, the relationship between the ruler and the subject had been settled. Ouyang Shuo had won another Divine General.
Ouyang Shuo checked Han Xin's attributes.

[Evaluation]: The best in martial arts, the best in strategy. Overcome danger, destroy hardness, and be brittle. Zhao plotted against Han Bin, and set up Wei Biao. Since the capital was tightened, he led the army to the north. He helped Wei, climbed the mountain to destroy Zhao. His might was as bright as fire, and his momentum surpassed the wind. His generation was like a remnant, and his level was like grass. Two prefectures were purged, and the four states were raised. He cared for Northern Yan, and represented the East Sea. Subdued the dragon, and took its journey.
Han Xin's commander-in-chief was a little higher than Bai Qi's, close to the War Saint Sun Wu's. Bai Qi was both a commander-in-chief and a fierce general. Han Xin was a more purely a commander-in-chief.
The more soldiers Han Xin had, the better.
This showed Han Xin's ability to command troops.
How could the title of Soldier Immortal be easy?
In addition, Han Xin was also a military theorist, a representative of "military strategists." He had organized military books with Zhang Liang, and had written three chapters on the art of war in Han Xin.
Compared to Bai Qi, Han Xin's personality was slightly flawed. For Ouyang Shuo, he was naturally tolerant. The generals in his army might not all be great and honorable people.
After learning that Ouyang Shuo had subdued Han Xin, the two women were both envious and jealous.
"Why do you always get to see good things?"
Feng Qiuhuang was unhappy.
"There's nothing I can do about it. Looks determine fate."
Ouyang Shuo was in a good mood, and he joked.
"Tsk, he's clearly not handsome."
"That's right, he's not tall either."
How could the two women tolerate Ouyang Shuo's smugness? They continued to mock him.
"Jealousy. You're just jealous."
Facing a certain person's shamelessness, the two women were also speechless.
The battle of Giant Deer was about to end.
The looting of the supply team signaled the end of the volunteer army.
The 600,000 volunteer army was blocked by the 1,000,000 Qin soldiers, unable to advance or retreat.
The army was short of food, and it looked like they would run out of food soon.
The ones who could not sit still were not the feudal lords, but the players of the Anti-Qin Faction. The feudal lords, who should be harvesting contribution points, had already reaped great rewards from the earlier battles.
They did not want to be buried with the volunteer army. In order to reduce their losses, the feudal lords thought of a solution, which was suicide.
Once a feudal lord committed suicide, the army he brought could be safely teleported back to their territory.
In just a few days, the feudal lords, who were suffering from a lack of food, committed suicide one after another.
In a short period of time, the numbers of the volunteer army decreased sharply. Under this chain reaction, in just four or five days, other than a few ambitious feudal lords, the rest of the feudal lords had already retreated from the battlefield.
Once the Inhuman army retreated, the volunteer army's defeat was irreversible.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the valley, making it look exceptionally bleak. (To be continued.)
