%d7%cf%d3%c4%b8%f3 Time has moved. Ten days have passed since Xiang Yu's mutiny. At this time, the Hebei Chu army was waiting for an order, an order from King Mi Xin of Chu Huai to formally appoint Xiang Yu. As long as the order arrived, Xiang Yu He will mobilize his troops to march north to fight Zhang Han to the death.

On the other hand, Zhong Limei, who was ordered to rush to Hengshan County, was finally arriving in Zhu County after nearly ten days of running. At this time, the team was resting in a mountain forest. Several soldiers hurriedly went to fetch water with water bags. The remaining The people below were half leaning against the big tree, chewing the bread in their hands.

Along the thousands of miles, Zhong Limei and others were very tired, but Xiang Yu was gathering momentum in the north, and the war was about to start soon. This letter of his was particularly important. Thinking of this, Zhong Limei touched his arms with his hands. He took the bamboo slip and swallowed the last bite of pancake in his hand, then stood up and ordered: "Bring the water back, let's take a few sips quickly, and then rush on as quickly as possible."

In the east city of Zhu County, Xiang Zhuang's mansion is located here. Nearly a hundred Chu soldiers guarded this small house. At this time, it should have been the busiest time of the day, but Xiang Zhuang hurried back on his horse. to the mansion,

In the living room, Wu Fang sat on a soft mat with tears in her eyes. Cao Feng comforted her carefully. The two women were supposed to be incompatible when they met, but now they were like sisters. Xiang Zhuang was there. The woman on the soft mat beside her shook her head helplessly, her heart aching.

Wu Fang rushed to Zhu County in a hurry. Something big must have happened. Xiang Zhuang was opening a cloth bag at this time. Inside, there was a letter written by Wu Rui. Xiang Zhuang read the letter quickly and read it three lines at a time. He frowned and sighed softly,

Wu Rui's battle report was written very poorly. It can be seen that he was very anxious when he wrote this letter. Among them, one section of the battle report caught Xiang Zhuang's attention the most. Wu Rui led his army to the vicinity of Jiuyi Mountain and prepared to attack from Lingling. He continued to move westward, but the miasma in the south made it difficult to navigate the mountain roads. Wu Rui fell ill on the way and his journey was delayed. He hoped that Xiangzhuang could come to help and that Hengshan County could help share military supplies. Poyang could no longer supply large-scale troops. Xiang Zhuang couldn't help but hesitate after seeing the need for marching.

Liu Bang went west and Song Yi went north. At this time, Qin's attention will be focused on the northern route. This is a good opportunity for Xiang Zhuang to attack Nanyang. If he breaks through Wuguan, Xiang Zhuang believes that he is absolutely capable. Into Xianyang, but at this time, Wu Rui's request for help forced Xiangzhuang to consider going south. In this case, Xiangzhuang's plan to advance westward would be shelved.

The two women were still chatting. Wu Fang was in a slightly better mood at this time. However, seeing Xiang Zhuang frowning and seeming hesitant, Wu Fang's calm heart became nervous again.

Seeing that Xiang Zhuang was silent for a long time, Wu Fang stood up in a hurry and came to Xiang Zhuang's side. She wanted to kneel down and plead with Xiang Zhuang, but Xiang Zhuang held her up with one hand and sighed: "Miss Fang doesn't have to be like this."

Cao Feng also came over and persuaded: "Brother Xiangzhuang, look how pitiful Miss Wu Fang is, you must help her."

The two women's pleas finally strengthened Xiang Zhuang's determination to go south. He looked back outside the house and shouted loudly: "Come here, invite Kong Ji, Han Xin, Ding Gu and others."

I just remembered a "Hey" outside the door, and then I remembered Kong Ji's laughter: "General, are you looking for me?"

Soon, Kong Ji, Ding Gu, Han Xin, Li Ji, Letian, Zhou Sheng and others walked in quickly. Xiang Zhuang was slightly surprised as to why these people were here together. Xiang Zhuang looked around at everyone. At that moment, he suddenly discovered that there was another person beside Ding Gu, who was Xiang Yu's side general, Zhong Limei. Xiang Zhuang then laughed loudly and said: "Brother Zhongli, why are you here?"

Zhong Limei looked tired, but he had no time to rest. At this time, when he saw Xiang Zhuang seeing him, he immediately took a step forward, took out the letter from his arms, and presented it with both hands, "I am here to deliver this letter on the order of General Xiang Yu." To you,"

Seeing Zhong Limei's tired face, Xiang Zhuang secretly guessed that he must have traveled day and night. A bad thought ignited in Xiang Zhuang's heart, something must have happened in Anyang.

Xiang Zhuang hurriedly took the letter and read it. Xiang Yu clearly stated in the letter that he had killed Song Yi, seized military power, and was preparing to go north to avenge his uncle Xiang Liang. However, he was afraid that a hundred thousand soldiers and horses would not be enough to shake Zhang Han. He hoped that Xiang Zhuang led his army north to join forces. In addition, he hoped that Xiang Zhuang would write a letter of resignation to Xiang Bo, allowing him to immediately transport supplies and go north for reinforcements. He also hoped that Xiang Zhuang could allocate supplies from Hengshan County to temporarily relieve the urgent need.

In the letter, Xiang Yu's tone did not allow for rejection. Moreover, judging from the urgency with which Xiang Yu wrote the letter, the Chu army was at a critical moment. Winter was approaching, and once it snowed heavily, I am afraid that the 100,000 Chu army would be wasted in Anyang. , unable to return south,

Moreover, once the Qin army goes south for a sneak attack, the consequences will be disastrous. Thinking of this, Xiang Zhuang shook his head helplessly. Since Xiang Yu has seized the military power, why not return to the army immediately, capture the Puyang garrison, and then wait for supplies and materials to bring the spring flowers to bloom. Fight to the death with the Qin army,

But Xiang Zhuang knew Xiang Yu too well. Since Xiang Yu had decided to fight Zhang Han in a bloody battle, he would not retreat until the last moment. Thinking like this, Xiang Zhuang handed the letter to Kong Ji and sighed: "Two things need to be done. , First, prepare 30,000 sets of cotton robes and 30,000 loads of grain and send them to Anyang immediately. Second, write a letter to the accountant and ask uncle Xiang Bo to prepare supplies to help Xiang Yu."

Kong Ji was confused after hearing this. These military supplies should have been prepared by King Huai. Why did Xiang Zhuang suddenly take on this job? With doubts, Kong Ji quickly read the letter. When he read the end, he finally understood. Xiang Yu launched a mutiny in the army. At this time, this 100,000-strong army was already in Xiang Yu's hands and became the actual Xiang family army. Moreover, the general was not going to accept the order of the foreign king. Xiang Yu's move was indeed brilliant.

Now that this war has changed from the dispute between Qin and Chu to the war between the Xiang family and Zhang Han, Kong Ji knew that Xiang Zhuang could no longer sit idly by and ignore it.

Thinking of this, Kong Ji nodded, followed Xiang Zhuang's instructions just now, and then asked: "General, how many troops are you going to bring north to join the enemy?"

When he heard that they were going north to join forces, Wu Fang asked slightly anxiously: "General Xiangzhuang doesn't plan to go south?"

The tears that had stopped fell from Wu Fang's face again. The usually powerful and majestic female general turned into tears in front of Xiang Zhuang. Xiang Zhuang looked at it and couldn't help but feel pity in his heart. , sighed: "I will order people to lead the army north, and what I promised you will not change."

Having said this, Xiang Zhuang looked at everyone and asked: "Who is willing to lead the army north to join forces with Xiang Yu?"

Leading his army to the north, it was about to start a war with the Qin army. Many people were gearing up and eager to try. At this time, Han Xin walked out, cupped his hands and said: "Since the general is busy and cannot go north, I am willing to wait for the general and his party."

"It's better for me to go," Letian cupped his hands and smiled. On the side, Ding Gu interjected: "I'm the deputy general here. Don't fight. I'll go and join forces. How about,"

Everyone was vying for it, which was beyond Xiang Zhuang's expectation. However, Han Xin was a famous general under Liu Bang in history and had great military exploits. As the saying goes, "Han Xin wants more troops, the more the better." If Han Xin is released, I don't know how many will there be.

Due to this variable, Xiang Zhuang hesitated, and his eyes began to fall on Ding Gu and Letian. These two men were also his favorite generals. This time, Xiang Zhuang was reluctant to let go when he went south. However, Xiang Yu urged reinforcements, and he

Unable to ignore it, Xiang Zhuang became hesitant.

Just when Xiang Zhuang was secretly thinking about countermeasures, Han Xin once again handed over his hand and said: "General, although there are 100,000 people in the northern expedition to Zhanghan, Xiang Yu is violent by nature and not good at strategy. Once he falls into a treacherous plot, the consequences will be disastrous. General, please

Let me go north,"

Han Xin's worries are also Xiang Zhuang's worries. If Xiang Yu wins, everything will be easy. If Xiang Yu loses, Chu will face annihilation. And how long can he hold on in Hengshan County or retreat from Kuaiji?

,

Thinking of this, Xiang Zhuang finally nodded in approval and ordered: "Okay, I will give you 20,000 troops. You and General Zhongli will lead the troops north tomorrow and bring supplies. Don't delay."

It was Han Xin's lifelong wish to serve under the mighty Xiang Yu. At this time, Xiang Zhuang named his general. Han Xin was overjoyed. He immediately stepped forward, cupped his hands and said, "This last general will definitely live up to the general's expectations."

Xiang Zhuang nodded with satisfaction, looked at Zhong Limei again, and sighed earnestly: "You can tell Brother Yu that Zhang Han is by no means an idle person. You must not underestimate Zhang Han. Moreover, when marching and fighting, don't be irritable.

Killing in vain, the one who wins the hearts of the people wins the world."

Zhongli Mo wrote them down one by one. At this time, Xiangzhuang waved his hand and ordered: "Come here, take General Zhongli down to rest, prepare lunch, and treat him well."

A personal attendant walked in, sang "Hey," and greeted Zhong Limei. Zhong Limei also gestured to Xiang Zhuang in return, and left the living room with Han Xin.

Looking at the two people leaving, Xiang Zhuang couldn't help but sigh. The war was about to be ignited. A battle between Julu and the world was in turmoil. Although Xiang Zhuang had known for a long time that this day would come sooner or later and he could not avoid it or avoid it, but this

One day really came, but Xiang Zhuang felt so confused in his heart.

He didn't know whether he was right or wrong in letting Han Xin go. Could Han Xin really be employed under Xiang Yu?

I am afraid that these are no longer things that Xiang Zhuang can worry about and control. Thinking of Wu Rui's letter, Xiang Zhuang turned to look at Kong Ji and others, and said helplessly: "Let's discuss the specific details of going south."

After talking with everyone for nearly two hours, it was already noon. Cao Feng sent people to urge Xiang Zhuang to eat several times, but Xiang Zhuang didn't have time to go there. Finally, when everyone left, Xiang Zhuang felt that he

Wanting to be alone for a while, Xiang Zhuang did not go to the side hall to eat. Instead, he sat on the table, unfolded a map, and looked at the map quietly, but his mind was empty.

He himself didn't even know what he was thinking about for so long.

Time passed minute by minute, and Xiang Zhuang's thoughts gradually returned to reality.

Xiang Zhuang thought hard about the history of this period. He had been in the Qin Dynasty for so long that he had forgotten what he had learned in history classes. Xiang Yu killed his soldiers in a trap and deserved a defeat. This was an indisputable fact. He didn't know what he could do.

, even if he follows Xiang Yu, it may be difficult to change history. After Xiang Liang died in the battle, Xiang Zhuang has lost confidence in himself. Perhaps, he should have his own territory, so that he can change history with his strength.

If he wants to gain a foothold in this era, Xiang Zhuang knows very well that only speaking with strength is the greatest capital.
