After a while, Zhang Ao, who couldn't stand the boiling water and shed his skin, wrote an order to organize all his troops stationed outside the city into the Qin army.

Only then did he meet Wang Zhu.

It’s still that big account!

Wang Zhu came out with a cheerful face, shaking hands and hugging: "General Zhang, I just went to the toilet and missed it. I'm really sorry. Their hospitality was considerate. Is there anything I'm not satisfied with?"

Just say it."

Zhang Ao thought to himself, he was so considerate that I almost met the King of Hell. The people of Qin are indeed a country of tigers and wolves.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, don't be so polite, you are already very considerate!" Zhang Ao said from the bottom of his heart.

Wang Zhu saw that Zhang Ao's frightened look was completely different from the arrogance he had when he first arrived. He thought to himself, a person's honesty or dishonesty is not determined by his character, but by his environment. When this environment changes, Zhang Ao's entire life will change.

The man was completely shaken. There was clearly a look in Zhang Ao's eyes like a dog fawning over his master, which made Wang Zhu feel a little contemptuous. This kind of person was definitely a man who was chasing Qin Muchu. If he hadn't been kept alive, he would have been killed with one knife.

thing.

"General Zhang, I'm sorry. I've prepared some wine, food, singing and dancing here. Please come to the table quickly, General Zhang. I heard that General Zhang is a wizard in military affairs. I'm thirsty for talents, and I'm just about to ask for advice."

Wang Zhu slapped him and gave him a sweet date.

The banquet was really sumptuous, with bear paws, deer antlers, ginseng, and black-bone chicken all available. Looking at the beauties accompanying the wine, they were also beautiful and fragrant. Zhang Ao laughed so hard that his chin almost fell into his crotch.

All the abuse was forgotten.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your generous gift. I will remember it deeply in my heart." At this moment, Wang Zhu was as great as his reborn parents.

Zhang Ao couldn't stop drinking the delicious wine like Qionghua Jade Dew, and the beauty next to him kept urging him to drink. After a while, he became a little drunk. He said some heroic words that he was willing to die for the King of Qin. Wang Zhu's drunk words to such people are usually

It goes in from the left ear and comes out from the right ear. These are just fart words and cannot be counted at all, but it is okay to take advantage of it while he is drunk.

"Do you still like these two beauties?"

"Like - like -" Zhang Ao's tongue was shortened.

"Then I'll give it to you. You two must remember to serve General Zhang well!"

"It's your Majesty," the two beauties also thanked him profusely. To be honest, they were unwilling to stay with Wang Zhu because the 'Yulu' they received every month was too little and not enough. When they arrived at General Zhang Ao's

He doesn't have as many wives as the emperor around him, so he can use more jade dew to nourish his skin.

Zhang Ao now really wanted to be loyal to Wang Zhu, so that the boss who loves bonuses could not be loved by his employees.

Zhang Ao stood up from the ground, patted his chest and said, "Your Majesty thinks so highly of me, Zhang Ao, and is so kind to me. I, Zhang Ao, am not an ungrateful person. I will immediately order the soldiers in the city to open the city gate to welcome your Majesty."

, go to the city to rest your horse——"

Wang Zhu kept saying, "General Zhang drank too much. This, I'm afraid this is inappropriate!"

Zhang Ao became angry all of a sudden: "Is it possible that the king looks down on me? From today on, my life, Zhang Ao, belongs to the king. No one's words can be heard in my ears. I only listen to the king's orders."

You are really very loyal!

Wang Zhu reluctantly said, "Since General Zhang said this, if I don't go into the city, I won't give you face. Well, that's it. Let's go into the city."

Zhang Ao was dazed and very happy; "That's right, young general will lead the way. Your Majesty, please."

Wang Zhu, Wang Ben, Wang Ling, Qin Ai, and Qin She immediately mobilized 50,000 elite soldiers and followed Zhang Ao to the city. Although Zhang Ao was so drunk that his face was red and his ears were red and he was unconscious, his words still worked well.

As soon as the soldiers heard that the general had opened the door to welcome him, they only took a second or two to react and resolutely carried out this order.

After entering the city, Zhang Ao said in front of the whole army: "I, Zhang Ao, will be the King of Qin's man from now on. You should also follow the King of Qin -" After saying that, he took Wang Zhu to the governor's mansion.

Wang Zhu brought 10,000 troops there, and the rest, led by Wang Ben, did not take long to completely marshal the 10,000 Zhao troops at the top of the city who looked at each other incomprehensibly as if they were two feet tall.

Following behind, the 100,000 Qin troops also entered Dai County under the leadership of Huanjue and Li Xin. The nearby county towns all surrendered under Zhang Ao's order.

The number of Zhao troops who were recruited amounted to more than 60,000. In the end, after downsizing and reorganization, 40,000 strong soldiers were obtained.

After Zhang Ao sobered up, he regretted what he had done. However, he could only shed tears like a big girl who was ridden before leaving the palace, and did not dare to say a word. Because he found that the people around him

The guards had all been replaced, and he didn't even recognize the servant girl. When he went out, he was always asked, and when he came back late, he was scolded by the soldiers. This showed that he was in danger.

Wang Zhu asked Zhang Ao to write a letter to Xiang Yu, saying that Daijun City was attacked by Han Xin and it was the King of Qin who led troops to rescue the siege.

In this way, Wang Zhu can legitimately occupy Daijun.

Xiang Yu's army arrived in South Korea ten days later. When Lü Zhifeng's Han army saw Xiang Yu's army approaching the border, they surrendered without saying a word or firing a single shot.

Xiang Yu advanced along the Korean border and reached Handan. Lu Pheasant did not listen to Han Xin's plan, thinking that the 200,000-strong army would definitely win against Xiang Yu's 100,000 Chu army, so he forcibly led his troops out of Handan to fight Xiang Yu. Han Xin initially

He said that he would not go, but Lu Pheasant was not Liu Bang. He was a ruthless person. After a few glances, he made Han Xin feel uncomfortable. Just go, or you might die. Han Xin knew that now was not the time to fight head-on with the Chu army, no matter it was

In terms of financial, material and military strength, Lu Pheasant's army was more than a thousand miles behind Chu's army.

"Although the Chu army only has one hundred thousand soldiers, Xiang Yu has always advocated that the elite should not be too valuable in military affairs. The old, weak, sick and disabled will only consume food. When fighting, they will be hindered. His one hundred thousand army are all time-tested warriors.

, one can be equal to ten. If our army fights against him, with Xiang Yu's bravery, he will definitely be defeated. It is better to unite with the king of Qi, attack Pengcheng and hold Xiang Yu back, and our army will win." Han Xin also wanted to persuade Lu Pheasant.

Lu Pheasant couldn't listen at all. The victory these days had gone to her head, which had long hair but short knowledge.

"General Han has always been resourceful and brave. Why is he now afraid of Xiang Yu, a fool? Madam Ben has seen what he has done these days and knows that he has no brains. With the wisdom of you and Zifang, how can you possibly fight against him?"

No win!”

Zhang Liang said mildly: "Since Xiang Yu raised his army, he has fought dozens of large and small battles, and has been invincible. It is indeed unnecessary to deal with him. Our army had better not touch his edge!"

Han Xin said sternly, "Although Xiang Yu is an idiot politically, he is very flexible in his military use, commanding decisively, and is familiar with the art of war. At present, Zhao Guo is newly defeated, the people have not yet surrendered, and the Qin army in Dai County is in rebellion. I mean to retreat to Jingxing."

The Chu army came from afar, and it was very hard work. The road to Jingxing Mountain was winding and the march was difficult. The Chu army had difficulty in transporting food. Madam can send 20,000 elite troops to bypass the Chu army on the small road to cut off the food route of Xiang Yu's army, and then send

They surrounded Jingxing Mountain in the mountains and jungles, leaving his elite cavalry in the mountain passes, ravines, and precipitous peaks, even if they are unable to use their strength. This way we can win completely! Madam, don’t miss this opportunity!"

"Then why were Chen Yu and Zhao Wangxie killed by you instead of guarding Jingxingkou?" Lu Pheasant asked back.

"If Chen Yu adopts this strategy, our army will definitely be very passive." Han Xin stuttered.

"So, General Han was not sure of victory at the beginning, so he led our army into danger." Lu Pheasant said aggressively.

"That's not true. I was prepared, but Xiang Yu is not me!" Han Xin's voice became weaker and weaker.

"Didn't General Cai just say that Xiang Yu is very flexible in his use of troops? If General Han thinks he is stronger than Xiang Yu, then we don't need to be afraid of him."

Han Xinxin thought, what's the use of me being stronger than him? The entire army is far behind the Chu army. How can a flock of sheep fight against a pack of wolves?!

But when he saw Lu Fei's resolute attitude, he knew that no matter how much he tried to persuade him, it would be useless. But he didn't want to die at a young age before he had made any achievements, and he would take it into his mind as soon as he rolled his eyes.

"Madam, what should we do if the Qin army attacks us? How about this? Madam, give me 30,000 troops, and I will go and stop the Qin army. Madam, you can make Guan Ying the general, Zifang the second general, and Chen Ping the staff general to attack Handan.

Wouldn’t this be the best of both worlds?”

Lu Pheasant knew what he meant, and secretly he was itching with hatred. Han Xin, Han Xin, I have stomped on you sooner or later. On the surface, he smiled and said, "Okay, let's do it this way! The Qin army will be handed over to the general."

However, it seems that 30,000 horses are not needed. I am in urgent need of people here. I think I can give you 10,000 horses, right?" Aren't you a god with troops?

"Thank you madam!" Han Xin thought, self-protection is enough. The Qin army wants to eat me, Han Xin, but I'm afraid I don't have such good teeth. I just don't attack.

Han Xin had no choice but to do this. He expected that Lu Pheasant would definitely be defeated. He wanted to escape for his life.

When Wang Zhu heard that Lu Pheasant had come out of Handan to attack the Chu army, he shouted happily that God would bless him. He hurriedly left Huan Jue behind, and Yuan Sheng pretended to attack Jingxingkou here, cooperating with Xiang Yu. He led the main army and rushed towards the Yan State. At that time,

The Yan State had jurisdiction over three counties, including Shanggu, Yuyang, and Youbeiping. However, Han Guang, the newly crowned king of Liaodong, only had two counties: Liaoxi and Liaodong. Together, these five counties were the land of Yan before the unification of Qin.

Wang Zhushuai's army marched directly from Dai County to the State of Yan, and within two days they arrived at Shanggu County of the State of Yan. The governor of Shanggu County was Li Liang, the former general of King Zhao's military officials.

Let’s not talk about how Wang Zhu repaired Li Liang and invaded Shanggu. Let’s talk about Lu Pheasant’s attack on the powerful Chu army.

Lu Pheasant's idea was a bit unlucky. The place where she and the Chu army encountered was very unlucky.

The Chu army entered from South Korea, and Lu Pheasant met the enemy from Handan. The two sides made relative movements, and two days later they encountered each other at Changping.

It was Changping where Zhao Kuo was besieged by Bai Qi and where 400,000 Zhao troops were encircled and killed.

The terrifying Changping, the bloody Changping. The Changping where evil ghosts wail, the Changping where resentment condenses and no grass can grow.

June, midsummer!

The scorching sun in the Changping Mountains is like fire. The boundless fields are scorching, and the half-withered and half-burnt crops are like being burned by fire. The roads have become lean.

The whole mountain is like a piece of flint, and fire may break out at any time.

Lu Pheasant led 2,450,000 soldiers and horses, and the red flags covered the sky and the sun. The sound of the hubs of their chariots shook the heaven and the earth. They marched forward in a mighty way.

Xiang Yu has never put Lu Fei, a womanizer, in his eyes. Han Xin, who was obsessed with crotch, and Chen Ping, the shameless man who seduced his sister-in-law, made him even more disgusted. Only Zhang Liang was still a figure in his mind. At least.

This boy is very brave and dared to assassinate Qin Shihuang. Therefore, the Chu army has not formally rested until it left Pengcheng. After entering Changping, some people were tired and their horses were exhausted.

The Chu army entered the mountainous area.

The bright sun is hanging in the sky, thousands of miles of blue clouds, and the hills in the distance are frightened by the advancing army. They burst out with birdsong. The blue-gray cliffs lack vegetation, are bare, and stand abruptly like swords thrust into the air. Only the mountain stream

The trees are lush and the stream is tinkling. Looking up is like sitting in a well and looking at the sky. The whole person seems to be trapped in a jar with an open lid, and the sound of talking is echoing.

Fan Zeng felt frightened. This is the burial place of 400,000 Zhao soldiers. It must not be underestimated.

"Overlord, the terrain here is difficult. I can go there but the enemy can't come. It's just a good time to set up camp and rest for a few days so that the soldiers can have the energy to move forward!"

Xiang Yu is indeed not an idiot in the art of war. He is well aware of the fact that a powerful crossbow cannot pierce a reed pole. Especially the terrain here is very dangerous, with knee-high weeds and dense trees and dense forests. It is easiest to hide an ambush, so carelessness is not allowed.

"Send an order to set up camp and send out spies to see what's true!"

Fan Zeng chose an open underground village with mountains and water at its back. There is a thoroughfare behind it, so he can evacuate at any time. In front of him, there are steep peaks to prevent enemy sneak attacks. With the efforts of 100,000 soldiers, the wooden village soon began to take shape.

There are two gates in Zhaishan, and two archery towers are erected at each gate, and people are sent to patrol.

Fan Zeng, Xiang Yu, Tu Gangqiu, Xiang Sheng, and Long Qie were inspecting the military camp. Suddenly someone reported that the Grand Sima Zhou Yin had returned from Lu'an.

Xiang Yu hurriedly summoned him.

Zhou Yin walked over with a face on his face and knelt down on one knee: "See Overlord——"

Xiang Yu immediately asked, "Where is Yingbu? Why didn't his army come over?"

Zhou Yin was full of dissatisfaction and snorted coldly: "The King of Jiujiang is ill and can't come."

Yingbu asked Zhou Yin to ask for leave for him, and also got a handwritten note of leave. Zhou Yin gave it to Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu glared and said, "Real or false?"

Zhou Yin sighed and said nothing.

"This black-faced man can't help but excuse himself from illness!" Xiang Yu threw Yingbu's leave note far away.

Fan Zeng hurriedly dissuaded him; "Maybe he is really sick. Please calm down, Overlord. Ying's presence in Jiujiang is not a bad thing. At least, it can prevent Qi Guo Tian Guang's attack."
