Chapter 368: The arrangements of the Great Chu remnants, Seeing Xiang Yu's resolution, conspiracy

If they were eliminated in the mountain peaks, it wouldn't achieve such a good deterrent effect.

"Yes."

Lu Li responded in a low voice, and Yuan Zuozong also quickly received the news.

He naturally knew more clearly where the Great Chu remnants were hiding around that forest.

So, upon receiving the news, he immediately led the Snow Dragon Cavalry to the surrounding locations.

In the dense mountain forest, there were all kinds of jagged rocks.

Making the road forward extremely difficult.

Not to mention fighting in this place, even walking was somewhat difficult.

Wang Ben chose a mountain and personally led the team to the depths of this mountain forest.

He knew that doing this was not a good idea.

The best way was to remain unchanged to meet all changes on the outside.

As long as they guarded the middle position, no matter which mountain this group of Great Chu remnants hid in, they would always come out.

But he didn't have that much time to wait.

If he chose the previous method, the waiting time might be three months, or even half a year.

His Majesty simply couldn't give him that much time.

And if he didn't get results for a long time, it would only make His Majesty disappointed in him, and in turn, disappointed in the entire Wang family.

This was not something Wang Ben was willing to see.

So he could only take a risk and choose a mountain to enter and search for people.

"General, judging by the traces here, people have indeed walked here before."

A soldier turned his head from the front and shouted loudly to Wang Ben.

It wasn't that every soldier lacked experience in mountain forest warfare.

This soldier was clearly able to investigate whether anyone had passed through here by the traces on the ground.

"Find the direction and search for me on a large scale."

Wang Ben heard this news, and his complexion finally felt a bit better, and he issued the order without hesitation.

The tens of thousands of people behind him immediately advanced in that direction.

"Ah."

A miserable scream came from the front.

In the entire mountain forest, all kinds of birds and beasts were startled and flew away.

Wang Ben realized something was wrong, his figure jumping quickly in the mountain forest.

By the time he arrived at the front position, his pupils contracted violently.

This was clearly a carefully arranged trap.

At this moment, three soldiers had already fallen into the trap, their entire bodies pierced by the wooden spikes below.

"Using this trick again."

Wang Ben felt his entire blood and energy surging somewhat.

He hadn't expected these Great Chu remnants not to choose to face the enemy head-on, but to choose the back, and even play tricks.

"Do you only know how to play these tricks?"

"Is this the method of your Great Chu?"

Wang Ben roared directly, his voice shaking the area for dozens of miles through internal energy.

Seeing Xiang Yu and Xiang Liang and others, hiding in the shadows, naturally heard Wang Ben's voice.

"Young Master, this is truly not the style of our Great Chu."

One of the people beside Seeing Xiang Yu said.

He was also a noble of the Chu State and had received a good education.

If they were defeated on the battlefield, he would have nothing to say.

But when the two armies were at war, playing these low-down tricks was something he couldn't accept.

"You also think he is right."

Seeing Xiang Yu turned his head, his gaze looking calmly at this subordinate.

If the Chu State hadn't been destroyed, this subordinate would never have dared to open his mouth like this in front of Seeing Xiang Yu.

"I implore the Young Master to fight the Qin army in a dignified manner."

The subordinate knelt down in front of Seeing Xiang Yu with a thud, his voice sincere.

Following the kneeling of this subordinate, several other subordinates who also belonged to the Chu State nobility followed and knelt down.

Xiang Liang stood in the distance, but he didn't intervene in this matter.

He was curious to see how Seeing Xiang Yu would resolve this matter.

"You should also be well-versed in military strategy."

Seeing Xiang Yu didn't answer the words of these subordinates, but asked instead.

"This subordinate has a family tradition of learning and has been well-versed in military strategy since childhood."

One of the subordinates raised his head and looked at Seeing Xiang Yu, saying.

Although in the army, there was a scholarly aura about him.

"Then may I ask, in military strategy, is there any mention of which methods are legitimate and which methods are villainous?"

Seeing Xiang Yu asked calmly.

That subordinate was immediately somewhat speechless, because all the knowledge in military strategy was about tactics during battle.

The most important point was that as long as one could win, it was a good method.

And it also required not to be constrained by the knowledge in books, but to apply it flexibly.

"You say our current methods are not dignified."

"Then how do you think we, with less than half the troops of the other side, can defeat their 100,000 troops?"

"Even if by luck, we can win,"

"don't forget why we rose up?"

Speaking the last sentence, Seeing Xiang Yu's voice grew louder, and his entire aura changed.

At his age, he should have been accepting knowledge in a study hall, but he had already developed the demeanor of a General.

Why rise up?

Everyone here knew the answer.

If they didn't rise up, what would face them would be the Ghost's pursuit.

And no one here didn't know the Ghost's terror.

After the banner of uprising was raised, those Chu people hiding in the shadows still chose to join; they all knew this point.

The Ghost was like a knife hanging over their necks.

At any time, it could be chopped down directly.

And wanting to break this knife,

one could only make one's own strength more powerful.

A head-on confrontation with Wang Ben would only reduce their own strength.

Even if they won against Wang Ben, so what?

These words immediately made the previous few subordinates show a look of shame on their faces.

"This subordinate was ignorant."

"Sometimes, integrity can make one passed down for generations,"

"but I just want to let more people survive."

On Seeing Xiang Yu's face, for the first time, a mature expression appeared that didn't fit his age stage.

From childhood to adulthood, he knew he was carrying a lot, a lot.

He was shouldering the expectations of many Chu people for him.
