The decisive battle!

As long as they win this fight, then... he will lead the multitude of troops to charge into the Central Plains.

Everyone was extremely excited, and then, they proceeded to set up an ambush and wait!

However, a day passed, and the scout did not report any signs of Han Xin's great army advancing!

Two days passed, and the scout still did not report!

Three days passed, and the scout still did not report!

"What are they doing? Why aren't they coming quickly? What are they waiting for!"

A group of grassland people were impatient!

The people of the Central Plains could not wait either!

Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu was especially anxious as if burning with fire!

Fan Zeng said, "No need to rush; most likely, they want to rest and reorganize for a few days!"

He spoke these words.

Everyone nodded; at this moment, they could only continue waiting.

Then, on the fifth day, finally, the scout came to report: "Han Xin's great army has moved!"

"Moved?"

"Are they coming?"

At that moment, many people were excited!

However, accompanied by the scout's next report, everyone was stunned!

"Han Xin's great army has bypassed the Hulun grasslands and is heading north!"

"Heading north?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the Xiongnu generals were dumbfounded!

Seeing Xiang Yu was equally dumbfounded!

Chanyu Modu Chanyu Modu Chanyu was dumbfounded!

Countless experts were equally dumbfounded!

Fan Zeng's head was buzzing even more!

With a face full of disbelief, he looked at the scout: "Are you certain?"

The scout said, "Absolutely certain; they broke camp this morning and then marched in the northern direction!"

"By now, they have already traveled twenty li away!"

"You..."

Fan Zeng clenched his fists tightly, and then immediately roared: "Bring the map!"

Moments later, someone placed the map before Fan Zeng!

Fan Zeng was still examining it, but... a large group of Xiongnu generals were already furious; they drew their swords and all advanced threateningly toward Fan Zeng!

The experts from the Central Plains also surrounded Fan Zeng!

Although Chanyu Modu Chanyu Modu Chanyu and Seeing Xiang Yu immediately stood before Fan Zeng to protect him, causing the crowd to dare not act rashly.

But... the anger levels of everyone were soaring!

They were all waiting, waiting for what Fan Zeng would say next!

If the words Fan Zeng spoke could not satisfy them, then... Fan Zeng would surely die!

No one could stop it!

After a long while, Fan Zeng spoke: "Wait!"

These words left his mouth!

And the moment these words were spoken, instantly, countless people became enraged!

One person raised his sword, stepped forward, and directly let out a great roar:

"Old fool Fan Zeng, go die!"

Shouting this, disregarding Chanyu Modu and Seeing Xiang Yu, he charged directly at Fan Zeng and slashed down!

Although Seeing Xiang Yu kicked this person flying with a single kick, but... the anger of everyone surged to the heavens!

At that moment, countless Xiongnu generals knelt before Chanyu Modu: "Chanyu Modu Chanyu! This old fool Fan Zeng is a man of the Central Plains; he harbors evil intentions and seeks to destroy our Xiongnu!"

"Chanyu Modu Chanyu, this Fan Zeng cannot be trusted; we can no longer trust him!"

"It is precisely because we trusted him that our Xiongnu have lost so much territory within these forty days!"

"We can no longer trust him!"

"What we should do now is immediately go out and engage Han Xin in a decisive battle!"

At that moment, many people were shouting!

Even the experts from the Central Plains were persuading Chanyu Modu!

"Kill him!"

"If this person truly possessed real talent and learning, then why was he not revealed during the time when Qin Mie destroyed the six states?"

"If this person truly had ability, then how could he have caused so many of us to eat poorly and sleep poorly?"

"Kill him!"

"Kill him!"

At that moment, the experts from the Central Plains were all shouting!

Even more people surrounded Fan Zeng!

"Who dares to kill my Second Father?"

Xiang Yu let out a roar of fury and drove the Eight-Treasure Tuo-Long Spear deep into the ground.

In that instant, his eyes turned red as he stared deathly at everyone present!

The crowd feared him; for a moment, no one dared to step forward!

Yet someone shouted, "No matter how fierce Xiang Yu is, he is still only one man. If we all rush him together, even Xiang Yu will die!"

As they shouted, at that moment, numerous Central Plains experts and Xiongnu generals all closed in!

Xiang Yu flew into a rage, kicked the Eight-Treasure Tuo-Long Spear hard, and stood firmly with the spear held horizontally!

He intended to fight everyone present with brute strength!

Everyone's anger surged to the heavens!

A great battle was about to erupt!

"Stop!"

Just then, Chanyu Modu Chanyu Modu Chanyu finally stepped forward, let out a roar, and directly shouted back all the Xiongnu generals present!

Then, he grabbed a Central Plains expert by the scruff, threw him aside, strode forward with long, swift steps to Fan Zeng's front, and shouted angrily at the crowd, "What are you all doing?"

"Can you not distinguish friend from foe?"

"Is this the time to stir up internal strife?"

"If we act like this, how can we possibly kill the powerful enemy?"

He roared in fury, his cold and ruthless gaze sweeping over everyone present!

In that instant, everyone who met his gaze could not help but lower their heads, beginning to feel fear!

Yet the crowd's anger did not subside; a Xiongnu general knelt before Chanyu Modu and said,

"If we do not kill him, then expel this man immediately. We cannot continue to waste time here; we must launch a surprise attack on Han Xin's army at once!"

He shouted.

But the moment those words left his mouth, Chanyu Modu flew into a rage on the spot: "Surprise attack Han Xin's army? Can you defeat Li Yuanba?"

"Li Yuanba alone can fight tens of thousands of men. Combined with Han Xin's military formation, they are already an invincible existence. Can you defeat him?"

"Are you taking three hundred thousand men to their deaths?"

He asked in a furious voice.

For a moment, everyone fell silent.

"Then kill Fan Zeng first to vent our anger!"

A Xiongnu general roared again, rushing forward!

Chanyu Modu shoved this man aside, then swept his gaze over everyone present!

Under his intimidation, not a single person in the scene dared to move!

Seeing this, Chanyu Modu grabbed Fan Zeng and dragged him away into the distance!
