Overlord of the late Qin Dynasty

Chapter 43
Zhao Ben felt very lucky, and Xiang Yu felt the same way.Zhao Ben's force is only 78 now, although the highest can reach 82, it is not enough to see now.

Among the top 92 are Zhou Gu (93), Huang Shao (91), and Li Guo (89), who are already well-known all over the world, as well as Fu Kuan (88), who has just stood out from the crowd. Xin (90), Li Liang (86), Su Yu (87), Guan Ying (85), Li Shang (92), Ge Ying (80) are ten powerful opponents. In addition, Wang Wu (79), Zhou Lei (78) and Thief Pakistan ([-]) relied on luck and strength to make it to the top fifteen.

No one knew that Zhao Ben was actually the younger brother of Zhao Di, who is now a captain. Although Xiang Yu had seen his attributes, he didn't know that he was Zhao Di's younger brother.

Lieutenant Zhao Yu relied on his martial arts and military merits, and was promoted from a corps leader to lieutenant.He is different from Qin Qu. Qin Qu is a descendant of the royal family of the Ying family, so he is a hundred generals as soon as he enters the army, even though Qin Qu and Zhao Yu are both school lieutenants.But anyone with a discerning eye knows that the gold content of the two captains is different, one relies on strength, and the other relies on influence.

Zhao Yu and Qin Qu are comparable in martial arts, but Qin Qu is not as good as Zhao Yu in the army.

Xiang Yu brought Wang Li, Li You, and Fu Kuan to Zuixianju. Because Fu Kuan was from Wei, he and Huang Xin came together, so Xiang Yu sent someone to invite Huang Xin to come with him when he found out.

Among the top fifteen, Xiang Yu, Guan Ying, Li Shang, and Ge Ying are all from Chu; Li Liang and Li Guo are from Zhao; Fu Kuan and Huang Xin are from Wei; Huang Shao is from Qi; The ancients were regarded as Han people, but the most were from Guanzhong Qin, including Su Lu, Zhao Ben, Wang Wu, Zhou Lei, and Daoba.

Qin people accounted for nearly two-fifths of the top fifteen, which made the people of Guanzhong Qin who came to watch very happy. After all, although there is no distinction between countries, there are still divisions of regions!
Yingzheng heard in the palace that the martial arts tournament had reached the top [-], and Qin people accounted for nearly half of the top [-]. Although he knew that most of these people were at the bottom, Yingzheng was still very happy!

Yingzheng's Emperor Qin, although he likes talented people, he likes Qin Di even more!Nothing more than that, Ying Zheng felt that the people of Qin were more credible than the people of the Six Kingdoms!
Xiang Yu chatted happily with Fu Kuan and Huang Xin. During the banquet, Xiang Yu suddenly asked, "I don't know what the two elder brothers do for a living now?"

"Hey! I don't want to oppress traders and people like other rangers, and now I live at home by plowing the fields!" Fu Kuan said a little ashamed.

As soon as Fu Kuan said, Huang Xin said without concealing: "I rely on the land left by my ancestors and collect rent to survive. Every day is very boring!"

"I don't know why Ziyu asked this?" Huang Xin was more active than Fu Kuan. He knew that Xiang Yu didn't just ask such things casually, so he asked.

"In fact, my family lacks people with high martial arts skills! Although there is Xiang An, the chief steward of my family, he is too busy! I wanted to recruit some people in Xianyang to help, but my uncle didn't trust him. Rangers from Xianyang! That's why there is this martial arts tournament, to attract a group of rangers to protect the peace of my Xiangfu!" Xiang Yu looked at Fu Kuan and Huang Xin, and said without any pretense.

Hearing Xiang Yu's words, both Wang Li and Li You said, "Zi Yu! You should have said it earlier! Let's go home and dispatch some generals to help!"

"Zi Lie, Zi Shun! Thank you for your kindness, but I can't accept it! After all, those people are your generals, so I still have to recruit some people myself!" Xiang Yu politely refused.

Li You knew that Xiang Yu was an arrogant person, and he didn't want to take advantage of other people's resources, so he said, "You should be more thoughtful, Ziyu! But if there is anything, you have to talk to us! After all, we are brothers. what!"

"Yes! I agree with Zishun's words!" Wang Li also nodded.

"Yes! Brother!" Xiang Yu patted the two of them on the shoulder and said happily.

Xiang Yu felt that his efforts were not in vain. Although he was using the two of them, he also developed brotherly feelings towards them.

At this time, Fu Kuan suddenly asked very formally: "Zi Yu, I wonder if I can make you trust me?"

"Although I have only known Brother Fu for less than a day, Yu feels that Brother Fu is a trustworthy person!" Xiang Yu knew that Fu Kuan was testing, so he replied.

"That's it! My brother can help you!" Fu Kuan was very moved after hearing this, and said.

"But Brother Fu's family?" Xiang Yu asked a bit embarrassed, what about Fu Kuan's family.

Unexpectedly, Fu Kuan said with a wry smile: "Fu Mou is alone now, except for the few acres of Susukida that I farm with! There is no high house above, no wife and children below! How can anyone say anything about it?"

"I'm sorry! Brother Fu! Yu is too presumptuous!" Xiang Yu said very apologetically.

"No problem!" Fu Kuan waved his hands generously.

Fu Kuan offered to help Xiang Yu because he knew that Xiang Yu could be entrusted to him.In addition, besides himself, there is no wife, child or children in the family, so he said it immediately!

And Huang Xindao didn't say anything now, because Huang Xin is considered a landlord class. His family has at least hundreds of acres of fertile land, as well as his wife and children. Although his life is boring and boring, he will not help someone from the same background as himself people!

After Fu Kuan made his statement, Huang Xin didn't say anything.Xiang Yu knew that Huang Xin would not join him, so he didn't force it.

As the banquet continued, Xiang Yu, Fu Kuan, and Huang Xin began to drink more alcohol, and eventually even the three of them passed out.

Wang Li and Li You did not participate in the wine fight, so they were not drunk!The two notified Xiang An, and Xiang An sent people to send Xiang Yu and Fu Kuan back to Xiangfu.

The next day, the contest continued.

Since it was already the top eight competition, many people who missed the previous competition rushed over.Although it didn't make the sergeants stationed and patrolling the competition venue and surrounding areas feel overwhelmed, it did put a little pressure on them.

Zhao Ben came to the contest stage early and waited to see the other 14 players from the top [-] compete for the top eight seats in a few days.

The game starts with a draw to decide who will fight whom.

After being inspected by three random people on the spot, Xiang Bo began to draw lots.

"The first one, Zhou Gu! He's playing against Li Shang!"

"Li Guo! Against Su Lu!"

"Xiang Yu! Against Wang Wu!"

"Huang Xin! Against Ge Ying!"

"Fu Kuan! Against Bandit Ba!"

"Huang Shao! Against Li Liang!"

"The rest of Guanying will play against Zhou Lei!"

"All contestants, please arrive at the competition stage and prepare for the competition!"

As the three masters who have been famous all over the world before this martial arts competition, they are the most concerned by the common people and other heroes.

As the first person to play, Zhou Gu attracted the most attention.

Li Shang had already proved his martial arts skills when he reached the top fifteen, and many rangers admired him.Some people say that Li Shang's sword skills are not weaker than Xiang Yu's sword skills, although one of them has a long weapon and the other has a short weapon.
