I have lived forever since the end of Qin Dynasty

Chapter 88 The Chu Army Enters Guanzhong for the First Time

Chapter 88

The majestic Hangu Pass.

The pass is in the valley, as deep and dangerous as a letter, so it is called Hangu pass.

During the Warring States period, it was truly the most powerful pass in the world. The main theme of the entire middle and late Warring States period revolved around the Qin people's departure from the pass and the joint efforts of the nations to break through the pass.

"Uncle once told me that more than 100 years ago, Chu people and people from other four countries fought here, but because of internal differences, they were instigated by the Qin people, so there was no chance to break in." Xiang Yu looked at this majestic pass that seemed to separate the world, and sighed softly, imagining those past events.

Chen Luo pursed his lips and whispered: "Today is not the past. After all, the danger of mountains and rivers is not as good as that of people's hearts. Back then, the world was chaotic for hundreds of years and yearned for unification, so Qin just swept the six kingdoms unmatched.

The same is true today, everyone in the world wants to rebel against Qin, and Hangu Pass is no longer the pass that one man guards and ten thousand men cannot open. "

Xiang Yu bowed his head and said, "After a hundred years, Chu people can finally stand on this land."

When the Chu army approached Hangu Pass, they could find that the city gate had been opened early, and a row of soldiers were standing on both sides of the road with only weapons in their hands, not wearing armor.

Seeing this, Xiang Yu said: "It seems that Jiang Ning's hint is still very obvious, Pei Gong has completely heard it."

Chen Luo smiled and said: "Actually, even if there is no hint, I believe Pei Gong will make the same choice. It's just that sooner or later."

Sending Uncle Xiang to pass on the message actually started to hint that there was no hostility.

Otherwise, who would send the uncle into the enemy camp for negotiations, or express badly.

Wouldn't that be a big filial piety?

And Chen Luo knew that Xiang Bo and Zhang Liang were old, and probably guessed that Zhang Liang was in the Pei Gong army at this time. This was also a gesture of goodwill, and it was the second reason for letting Xiang Bo act as a messenger.

Of course, he didn't say this publicly.

After all, although this kind of thing is not a secret, if you want to speak it out directly, it will be suspected of investigating the Xiang family.

"I really don't understand your twists and turns, but fighting is the easiest." Xiang Yu scratched his head helplessly.

Although after Chen Luo's explanation, he could understand the reason for doing so, but it was almost impossible for him to think up and formulate corresponding plans by himself.

Chen Luo turned his head to the side, and suddenly asked: "Brother Yu, if the world is peaceful in the future, the swords and guns are put into storage, and the horses are released in Nanshan, what do you want to do in the past?"

After asking this question, he looked at Xiang Yu nervously, waiting for a reply.

After thinking about it for a while, Xiang Yu raised his head and sighed: "If there is such a day, it will be really good. Going back to Wuzhong, the old days of my youth should not be affected by the flames of war, and drinking and having fun with them. Of course, Jiang Ningyi has to be there too."

Hearing that Xiang Yu's retirement life was like this, Chen Luo was relieved.

Going back to Chu and Wuzhong is completely different from the difficulty of realizing the dream of living in the Efang Palace.

If Xiang Yu hopes to achieve the latter, although Chen Luo still has a certain chance of success, compared to achieving the former, the probability of returning home and becoming a prince must be much lower.

He said slowly: "After entering the customs, I will meet with Pei Gong privately to discuss the follow-up of the world after Qin's death. What kind of situation will it be like?"

Xiang Yu was not interested in this, nodded lightly and said, "Jiang Ning, just do it."

When the two arrived at the gate of Hangu Pass, Xia Houying and Zhou Bo greeted them at the gate.

Xia Houying, who was familiar with them, cupped his hands and said: "General Xiang, Jiang Ning, I haven't seen you for a long time, and Pei Gong asked me to welcome you two here.

At present, the treasury in the place we occupy in the pass has not been opened, and the local officials and people have been counted in the register, and they can be picked up and given to the two of you later. "

Chen Luo said with a smile: "It's Pei Gong who has a heart, and let us take advantage of it."

Xia Houying shook his head: "Pei Gong said that he was able to successfully break through the Hangu Pass this time. Firstly, General Han had a clever strategy, and secondly, General Xiang wiped out hundreds of thousands of Qin troops in Julu. Therefore, the credit for breaking through the pass will be counted separately, and [-]% will belong to you."

Chen Luo answered, "You reminded me. I don't know where Han Xin and Pei Gong are. I haven't seen them for a long time, and I really miss them."

Xia Houying went on to say: "General Han said that after breaking through the pass, you should not stay too long. You should break through Xianyang quickly to prevent the Qin army from returning to help. Therefore, Pei Gong and him led the army to fight, leaving us two here to wait for you.

The news that came just now said that the lower bar had been broken. "

Chen Luo and Xiang Yu looked at each other, both of them were surprised.

After the siege is broken, there is really no place to defend Xianyang. The only place where Chen Bing can stand up to each other is only a few places such as playing in the water.

"I didn't expect Pei Gong to lead the army straight in. It's like breaking a bamboo. In just over ten days, the front of the army was directed at Xianyang." Chen Luo praised.

After bidding farewell to Zhou Bo and Xia Houying, the mighty Chu army entered Guanzhong in an orderly manner, and many Qin Jiangzu were eager to return home, and began to ask the chief when he could go further and fight to his hometown.

On the way to camp, Xiang Yu approached Chen Luo: "Jiang Ning, I have an idea, please listen to it. Now we will lead [-] cavalry to Xiagui, and then we can rely on mobility to go around to the south and compete with Peigong who will attack Xianyang first."

The strategy he proposed was to take the route coming in from Wuguan, and if they came in from Hanguguan, they needed to make a detour.

Listening to Xiang Yu's thoughts, Chen Luo thought for a moment, then nodded and said: "Brother Yu, if you want to rush over, there is nothing wrong with it. It's just that you need to inform first and leave tomorrow, otherwise it will be quite offensive."

"It's all right, then I'll prepare the army now." Xiang Yu was quite excited, and turned to gather his subordinates.

The reason why he said this was not to go to Xianyang to fight for merit. After all, he killed 30 Qin troops in Julu.

Now what Xiang Yu thinks is that he can have a more sense of participation in the last step of Qin's death, and draw the final end to the hundreds of years of love and killing between Qin and Chu.

Looking at Xiang Yu's leaving back, Chen Luo looked solemn.

The aspects I have to consider are far from being as simple as Xiang Yu.

This journey is far more than a simple question of who first invaded Xianyang, there are countless games behind it.

It can even be said that whether Xiang Yu's vision of drinking in Wuzhong in the future can be realized is closely related to his next actions.

Looking at the majestic Hangu Pass behind him, Chen Luo showed helplessness on his face, and muttered to himself: "It seems that the world has been settled after the death of Qin Dynasty, but how many people can expect that the aftermath of the troubled times will continue."

At the end of the sigh, he did not forget his next business.

About leading the army to leave, you have to communicate with Xia Houying and the others first, and ask them to tell Liu Bang the news first, so that the other party will not see the lead army going, which means provocation.
