please make me king

Chapter 910
"Historical Records: The Benji of Gaozu": (Liu Bang) was granted the treasury of Qin Chongbao's property and returned it to the army.He called the fathers and elders of the counties and said: "The fathers and elders have suffered from the harsh laws of the Qin Dynasty for a long time. Those who slander the family, and those who speak casually abandon the market. I have an agreement with the princes. The first to enter the pass will be the king, and I will be the king of the pass."

Bashang is named because it is on the shore of Bashui.

In history, Liu Bang, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, once led his army to break through Wuguan, captured Bashang, and Prince Ying of Qin came down.So far, the Hehe Qiang Qin who swept the six countries died in the first battle.

It's not that Zhang Shun didn't learn this period of history in his previous life, and he was familiar with the words "Bashang", "Baling" and "Baqiao".

However, due to the long history, he never seriously thought about the significance of these places, and just regarded them as an ordinary allusion.

Until today, when he stationed troops on "Bashang", he knew the key points.

Ying Shao said in the annotation "Hanshu": "Bashang, the place name, is thirty miles east of Chang'an."

"Ciyuan Baibu": "Bailuyuan, the place name, is Bashang, west of Lantian County, Shaanxi Province, and Bashui flows through Yuanshang. It is said that a white deer appeared here during King Ping of Zhou, hence the name."

Shang, also means side and side in ancient Chinese.

The so-called Bashang is the bank of the Bashui River, that is, it is sandwiched between the Chan River and the Ba River, and reaches the Bailuyuan in the south.

The two rivers are sandwiched here, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the terrain is undulating and tall, which is conducive to defense. It can be called the east gateway of Xi'an City.

If you start from Xi'an to the east and pass through this place, you will go east to the Weihan Ancient Road, and go southeast along the east bank of the Bahe River to the Wuguan Road that passes through Wuguan.

Cheng Dachang of the Southern Song Dynasty once said its key point: "If the husband dominates, he is far away from Tongguan in the east and Puguan in the north. They are both Daijun and Taiyuan, and they can violate the road of Yong."

On the other hand, Bashang, as the eastern barrier of Xi'an, is the only way no matter whether the enemy invades from the northeast, east or southeast.

Once the enemy captures Bashang, the city of Xi'an has no danger to defend, and can only sit in a lonely city.

This is also the reason why after Liu Bang led the army to occupy Bashang, Qin Ziying had to ask Liu Bang to surrender with "a white horse plain cart, tied around his neck to form a group, and sealed the emperor's seal, talisman, and festival".

It is also why there is an allusion of "Farewell at Baqiao", and how bad Li Guang's behavior in killing Baling Wei was.

"Baqiao" is being built on the Bahe River, and it was the only way to get out of Bahe River.

In history, Chang'an was the capital city, and most of those who parted went to the wealthy east.The ancients had the etiquette and custom of sending guests off at intersections.

It just happened to start from here, whether it is going to the northeast, east or southeast, it is quite cheap, so there were often "baqiao farewell" events in the Han and Tang Dynasties.

And Baling was originally the tomb of Liu Heng, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty. It is located at the northern foot of Bashang, east of Liujiaying, and also belongs to Bashang. Baling County was established here in the Han Dynasty.

This place is the gateway to Chang'an, so the Baling County Captain is naturally extremely cautious.

Li Guang, the general of the Han Dynasty, only because he strictly enforced the law and did not allow Li Guang to travel at night, so after gaining power, he took the opportunity to kill this man.

This is simply a challenge to the safety of Chang'an. If he were to change places with Emperor Wu of the Han, Zhang Shun felt that he would not be able to easily let this thief go.

Gossip less, it is said that after Zhang Shun led his army to Bailuyuan, also known as "Bashang" in ancient times, he personally led people to inspect Dizhai, Liujiaying and other places, and found that this place was indeed the gateway to Xi'an and a good place to station troops.

There are not only a large number of military sites on the Bailuyuan, but also countless relics and allusions.

After Zhang Shun comprehensively considered its advantages and disadvantages, he finally chose Liujiaying, the place where Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, stationed his troops in the past.

The north and west sides of this place are faced with high cliffs, and the south is surrounded by deep ditches, all of which are [-] to [-] feet above the river level. Only the east side can be connected to the plain, which is several times more dangerous than the most dangerous city.

It can be called a place where "looking down from above, this place of bows and crossbows is also a place where short soldiers are inappropriate".

In today's era, although bows and crossbows are in decline, firecrackers and artillery are prevalent, and the convenience of defense is ten times better than bows and crossbows.

So much so that Zhang Shun confidently believed that if the rebels stationed here, they would be ready to resist the siege of [-] officers and soldiers.

"His Royal Highness Shun, we have already arrived at the city of Xi'an, why did we attack instead of attack, leave instead of leaving, and stay here instead?" "King Zuo Jin" He Jin finished arranging the errands in hand, and came to ask for advice.

"What do you think of this place?" Zhang Shun asked with a smile without answering.

"Jincheng Tangchi is naturally formed, and it is a dangerous place!" He Jin said honestly.

"Don't limit your vision here, look far away!" Zhang Shun stood on the plateau, waved his hand and said, "From this point to the west, with a high view, Xi'an is in sight."

"In the past, Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, lived here, and the prince of Qin asked to surrender; Huang Chao conquered Huazhou, and Emperor Xizong of Tang Dynasty went west. Zhang Zhifang, the great general of Jinwu, led dozens of civil and military officials to Bashang to welcome him into the city. This is why!"

"What does King Shun mean to wait for King Qin to bring Shaanxi Governor Gan Xuekuo and Shaanxi Commander Zuo Guang to surrender first?" He Jin couldn't help but wonder.

"Fart!" Zhang Shun was almost pissed off by him, "During the Qin and Tang Dynasties, the imperial court had no reinforcements outside, no fighting spirit inside, and there was no danger, so naturally we had no choice but to surrender."

"Although the officers and soldiers have lost the Bailuyuan, there are still soldiers from Gansu, Ningxia, Lintao, and Yansui. Is there any reason to surrender without a fight?"

"What does King Shun mean?" He Jin asked somewhat uncertainly.

"Wait!"

"Wait?"

"Yes, our army has to wait for Chen Changbing, Bai Guangen and other ministries, as well as the movement of other rebels. The officers and soldiers are waiting for the rescue of Liang Tingdong, the governor of the three sides." Zhang Shun said with a smile.

"When the imperial army arrives, a big battle is inevitable. The winner will enter the city, and the loser will flee, that's all!"

"The Art of War says: First fight for the invincible, then wait for the victorious. The officers and soldiers are stationed in Xi'an, and I am stationed in Bailuyuan, and our feet are equal!"

"Even if the rebel army suffers occasional setbacks, it can still rely on this to defend, and wait for Heluo's reinforcements! Therefore, I am stationed here, that is, 'the first thing you can't win'."

"If Liang Tingdong, the governor of the three sides, doesn't save him, what can he do?" He Jin thought for a while and couldn't help asking a question.

"If so, Xi'an City will win without a fight!" Zhang Shun laughed.

"Forty miles away from the city of Xi'an, there are no less than one million people. If the gates of the city are closed for dozens of days, where will they come from for food and clothing?"

"If the gates of the city are not closed, I am only thirty miles away, and I can get there in half a day on horseback. How can I guard it?"

"This King Shun's plan is very clever!" He Jin thought for a while and couldn't help praising.

Not to mention what Zhang Shun and others planned, but since the retreat of the rebel army, Zuo Guang, the general soldier of Shaanxi, breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly dispatched soldiers to investigate the movement of the rebel army.

Unexpectedly, that night, a spy reported: "General, the 'shun bandits' retreated to Bailuyuan, felled trees and built soil, and set up camp in Liu's camp."

"Liujiaying?" Zuo Guangxian couldn't help but shrink his pupils. He was originally the general of Shaanxi, so how could he not be familiar with the surrounding terrain?
"It seems that these thieves are not willing to leave!" Zuo Guang pondered for a moment, his eyes froze, and he muttered to himself, "Since you stay here, don't leave!"
