Qiang Qin

Chapter 411 Xiang Zhuang Returns to Chu

Great Qin world.

As the Huns in the north fell apart, they suddenly lost their most threatening enemy.But in its south, in the south of the great river, Qin's rule was far from being peaceful and peaceful.

Spring in the south of the Yangtze River.

It is always accompanied by bursts of drizzle, and on rare sunny days, the wild flowers in the mountains and forests will compete to bloom, making people feel refreshed.

Wuyi Mountain Road.

On the mountain road from the hometown of Yue to the King City of Minyue, an army under the banner of "Xiang Chu" was heading south. Urge the soldiers under his command to follow up quickly.

Xiang Chu has been dead for a year.

At this time, the person who still insists on using Chu as the national system under the banner of Xiangzi is Xiang's last hope: Xiangzhuang.

Since his journey to the south, Xiang Zhuang has led a group of defeated generals to Jiangdong, and successively reached a unified agreement with the leaders of the Fan tribe, Baiyue and other tribes to fight against Qin. Disintegrated and dissipated again and again.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, more than a year has passed since Xiang Yu's death and the fall of the Chu Kingdom. Constantly traveling south, Xiang's foundation in Jiangdong began to shake.

At the end of December last year.

Xiang Zhuang plucked up his courage, and led nearly [-] soldiers in broken Chu boats and soldiers, and fought a decisive battle with Jiang Yu, the general of Qin, on the bank of Taihu Lake since the Wuyue struggle for hegemony.This battle is a boat and water battle that Xiang Zhuang hopes for. Jiangdong's children are good at boats. With this advantage, Xiang Zhuang wants to comfort Xiang Yu's spirit in heaven with a victory.

However, the progress of the war made Xiang Zhuang extremely disappointed.

The number of Qin troops participating in the battle reached an unprecedented [-], and more importantly, most of the Qin troops who crossed south were the former Chu troops who had just surrendered to Qin.Among these soldiers, there are many soldiers from Jiangdong.Except for the soldiers, among the generals at the first level, there are also former Chu great Sima Zhou Yin, generals Ding Gong, Huan Chu and others in the Qin army.

Among these few people, Zhou Yin has been staying behind in Jiangdong for two years, and is quite familiar with the situation in the south, and Huan Chu is Xiang Yu's former captain of cavalry, and his ability is almost the same as that of Xiang Zhuang. Huan Chu was injured and lost the opportunity to become famous in the Chu army. This time, when Huan Chu saw Ji Bu, Zhong Limei and other old Chu generals surrendered to Qin.Only then did he follow the persuasion to become a first-class general in the Qin army.

Huan Chu was originally from Jiangdong, and he was born in a water bandit, and he also has a relationship with the bandit Yingbo. Xiang Zhuang still learned a lot of his skills in water warfare from Huan Chu.

As a result of the war, Xiangzhuang was defeated again. The only thing that made him lucky was that a reinforcement army composed of Shengpanyue people recruited not long ago came from the Qiantang area, which just solved his plight.Xiangzhuang's troops lost more than [-] troops in this battle, and many of them were brave men.

In desperation, Xiang Zhuang decided to lead the rest of his troops to continue to retreat southward, waiting for an opportunity to join the descendants of Goujian, the ancient Yue king who was active in Fujian and Yue.

None of them are descendants of King Yue.In the past, when the state of Chu destroyed Yue, Wuzhu's ancestors fled southward to Fujian with their clansmen. Before the first emperor unified the country, Wuzhu once established himself as the king of Yue.But then he was directly and unceremoniously downgraded to the head of the emperor by the first emperor. This bit of resentment accumulated in Wuzhu's heart for a long time, and it also made him join the various princes who opposed Qin.

certainly.With Wuzhu's strength and position, it is almost impossible for him to really send troops to join the war in the Central Plains. At most, he would send some warriors from his clan to join the ranks of the anti-Qin princes.Four years ago, Mei Juan, the leader of the Yue tribe in Wuling, led his troops to support Liu Bang, the king of Han, and fought against Li Yuan and the Qin army in Jingnan.

Among its ranks, there are countless tribes.After Liu Bang's defeat, Wu Zhu, Mei Juan and other southern anti-Qin forces chose to retreat to the south of the river to recuperate.

In desperation and Jiangdong could no longer gain a foothold, Xiang Zhuang had no choice but to go to Wuzhu.The feeling of being under the fence is not good, especially for Xiang Zhuang, who has a violent personality, but now, he only has this way to go, whether the rest is to go to Mei Juan, or to go to Wu, the only prince who still has territory. Rui, will face the next attack from the Qin army.

Based on Xiang Zhuang's understanding of Wu Rui's character, there is no guarantee that this duplicitous guy will betray himself, and when the time comes, he will mention Xiang Zhuang's head and ask Li Yuan for credit and reward.

Qin Xinli nine years.

spring.

Minyue King City.

Wuzhu, king of Yue, Mei Juan, leader of the Meiyue tribe, and Xiang Zhuang, general of the Western Chu State, these three forces that have life-and-death hatred for Qin State gathered in one place.

Wuzhu occupies a vast territory in Fujian. Like the Huns, the Yue people are all soldiers. Wuzhu’s ancestors have been operating here for many years. Although Fujian is not suitable for human reproduction, the tenacity of the Minyue people still allows Wuzhu is very proud.

Mei Juan's Wuling tribe, after being defeated by the Qin army in Jingnan, has been in a very low state. Now it has been a rest for nearly two years, and Mei Juan has gathered about [-] Baiyue tribe. The coalition forces are now stationed in Lingnan and continue to block the communication routes between South Vietnam and the North.

Compared with Wuzhu and Meijuan, who are rich and powerful, Xiangzhuang's situation is much worse. All the way back from Wujun, Xiang's attraction to Jiangdong's children is also weakening day by day. Compared with the Central Plains, Jiangdong is a remote place. Compared with the more remote Minyue, Jiangdong is actually a paradise on earth. In contrast to this natural living condition, not many soldiers are willing to follow Xiangzhuang to Fujian.Now, Xiangzhuang has only gathered more than two thousand people all the way.

Among the 2000 people, about [-] people are members of the Xiang clan. After Xiang Yu established Chu, the center of gravity of the Xiang clan also moved to Pengcheng as a whole, but there is still a root in his hometown of Wujun, but these Most of the remaining members of the Xiang clan are fringe offshoots, and their relationship with Xiang Yu and Xiang Liang is worse than that of Xiang Han and Xiang Ying back then.

In addition to the members of the Xiang clan, some of the soldiers who followed Xiang Zhuang were the families of the generals who died in the battle with Qin. On the one hand, they were afraid that the Qin army would come and kill them all. , decided to go to Fujian and Vietnam to hide from the war.

In the Wuyi Mountains in Fujian, there are many narrow, long and deep valleys, and hundreds of people hide in them. Even if you are separated by a mountain, you will not be able to find a family not far away.

Xiang Zhuang led the army into Fujian. Along the way, he saw the mountains and landforms in the Xianxia area of ​​Wuyi, and his depressed mood after repeated defeats also improved a lot. In the dense forests in the south, the strengths of the Qin army will be greatly restricted. , but the anti-Qin forces dominated by Yue people can use favorable terrain to inflict heavy damage on the enemy.
