Chapter 28 Chilling
Liu Jia was very clear-headed and figured out the key point almost instantly.

Zhou Yin's rebellion was beyond doubt. When he was cleaning out and killing the 21 generals planted by the Han army, he deliberately let his stupid and cowardly nephew see it, forcing him to escape from the barracks and flee to Ying Bu's army. Then he pretended to be Ying Bu on the way and led the cavalry to kill him, making him and his subordinates mistakenly believe that Ying Bu and Zhou Yin had rebelled.

The worst thing was that his stupid and cowardly nephew was deliberately released. In order to avoid punishment from the King of Han, he would insist that his death was caused by Zhou Yin's alliance with Ying Bu in rebellion.

In this case, how would the King of Han react? Obviously, there is a high probability that he will be deceived.

At the most critical moment of the struggle between Han and Chu, the remnants of the Chu army were surrounded and faced defeat, but this unexpected change occurred. If the King of Han fell into the trap and made a wrong decision, the whole situation would be affected, and the already clear situation would become confusing again...

Thinking of this, Liu Jia felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart.

"Zhou Yin, who came up with this sinister plan? Don't say it's you. It's not that I, Liu Jia, look down on you, but you don't have the brains for it." Liu Jia gasped heavily, his old eyes bloodshot, and he yelled at Zhou Yin with his neck stiff.

Zhou Yin looked at him with pity and said nothing.

Xiang Chang leaned down, stared at him intently, and said coldly:
"Why are you feeling so bad? Do you feel bad about being the target of a conspiracy? My father has been the target of conspiracy so many times, what else did you say? If you feel bad, just bear with it."

Liu Jia was startled and looked at Xiang Chang with surprise and horror:

"It's, it's you? How is that possible? How old are you…"

"It doesn't matter whether it's me or not. What's important is, what will Liu Bang do next after he gets the information brought back by your stupid nephew? Will he take the initiative and attack Ying Bu's army?" Xiang Chang said in a cold tone.

"You underestimate the King of Han and the two counselors Zhang Liang and Chen Ping beside him. Although your plan is ingenious, it may not be so easy to fool them." Liu Jia gasped rapidly, blood foam overflowing from the corners of his mouth, and he said with all his might.

"Who said they had to be fooled? As long as Liu Bang had doubts about Ying Bu, everything was enough. People like Liu Bang casually tore up the covenant, without any reverence or integrity in their hearts, how could they trust the integrity of others? What is the most fearful thing for a person like him who destroyed the foundation of the world's credibility? Isn't it that he is afraid of facing others' dishonesty and stabbing him in the back at his most important moment?"

"Now that Zhou Yin has rebelled and you are dead, Ying Bu has completely lost control. He is suspected of rebellion and has a bad record of betraying the king even when he was offered the title of Overlord. Will Liu Bang dare to continue to tolerate him controlling tens of thousands of troops and being an unstable element that can threaten him at any time, instead of choosing to strike first?"

"Haha, in this case, facing Liu Bang's attack, I wonder how Ying Bu will choose to respond? Will he be a good boy and surrender obediently, or will he be angry and fight hard with your good cousin? Tsk tsk, just thinking about it makes me feel excited and full of expectations. Hehe, this is the so-called end of those who play tricks and will be controlled by the conspiracy!"

...Listening to Xiang Chang's chilling yet patient and incisive words, not only did Liu Jia feel cold all over, but his soldiers also froze in place. Zhou Yin and a group of soldiers beside him were also stunned, looking at him as if he were a monster, full of horror and awe.

Liu Jia no longer doubted that all this was planned by this brat, and as he analyzed the situation, he admitted in his heart that this little thief had seen through his cousin. After learning the news brought back by Liu Xin, he would definitely find ways to control Ying Bu and seize his military power.

If this little thief hadn't existed, Liu Jia wouldn't have worried at all, and the King of Han would definitely have succeeded. But because of this little thief's existence, how could he just sit back and watch without stirring up trouble? The consequences of this made Liu Jia, a dying old man, shudder.

"You, your father is just a monkey in human form. Apart from his personal bravery, he has nothing else to show for it. He is totally incapable of building an empire. You have such talent, you should..." Liu Jia racked his brains to find words to try to persuade the kid not to follow his father down the same path.

Xiang Chang lost interest in talking nonsense with him at this time. He stood up straight, drew out his sword, and said coldly:
"You go to the underground first and lead the way for your cousin Liu Bang, he will be here soon!" As he said this, in front of Liu Jia's horrified and desperate eyes, he chopped off his head with a sword.

At this time, a group of cavalrymen had also finished cleaning the battlefield. Zhou Yin issued a military order, and they immediately mounted their horses and lined up in an orderly manner. They stood silently facing the direction of Ying Bu's army, looking up, as if waiting for something.

Zhou Yin unconsciously let Xiang Chang move to the center position, and he, the commander-in-chief of the army, was placed at the bottom.

Now he no longer dared to look down on Xiang Chang just because of his young age. He had truly experienced this guy who was ruthless to his enemies and himself, had good plans, and was extremely treacherous. The memories of Gan Luo, Mengchangjun and other great predecessors who were smart at a young age and had achieved great achievements and left a glorious reputation in history flashed through his mind unconsciously.

"The Xiang family is indeed a family of generals from the ancient Chu. Our ancestors are spiritual, and great men have emerged from generation to generation. This eldest son seems to be as wise as Fan Zeng, and he is also quite brave and resourceful. With his help, the king will be even more powerful. Even if he cannot destroy Liu Bang, he will surely be able to share the world with him."

Zhou Yin looked at Xiang Chang and secretly thought about this.

Everyone waited for a while, and then, from the direction of Ying Bu's military camp, another rolling earth dragon rose into the sky. The flamboyant Ying Bu, wearing golden armor, took the lead and galloped over with a hundred soldiers.

So after his rebirth, Xiang Chang finally met a great man who could influence the direction of the turbulent history at the end of the Qin Dynasty!
Although this cavalry unit consisted of only a hundred men, it gave a completely different feeling from the hundred Han troops led by Liu Jia just now. When they were galloping, their formation was disorganized and extremely loose, as if they had no order at all. However, there was an arrogance, fierceness and murderous aura surging in them. Even a blind man could clearly feel that this was obviously a ferocious and fierce brigade that had fought its way out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood!
Xiang Chang found this cavalry very familiar, whether it was the loose outer appearance and tight inner body marching formation, the arrogant state, or the cruel and bloodthirsty fierce momentum. Although it could not be said to be exactly the same as the elite cavalry led by his father, it was very similar.

The number of cavalrymen behind Xiang Chang was twice as many as his own. As this elite force rushed towards him at full speed, even though they were still far away, they could not help but become slightly agitated. They obviously felt the inexplicable pressure and found it difficult to maintain their usual calm and composure.

Xiang Chang sensed this clearly, and at this moment he deeply realized the huge gap between the two armies. He also realized the terrifying existence of Ying Bu, the only one among his father's many powerful generals who was crowned king based on his military exploits.

Therefore, not only the elite cavalry behind him, but even he himself felt nervous, with cold sweat constantly coming out of the palms holding the halberd - this Ying Bu was not like Zhou Yin. He was obviously a real ferocious tiger. If he was not careful, he would really eat people!
