At the end of Qin, I became a son of the plane

Chapter 201: The dilemma of Qi Ren and Feng Jie who want to win
After Xiang Yu heard this discussion, he was silent for a moment, and then decided resolutely: "Uncle, Yafu, I still want to defeat Feng Jie first, and then attack Meng Yi. Although what you said, uncle, is the most beneficial to our army, it ignores the people's hearts. , Uncle, you recall the annihilation of Zhang Han’s tribe and the sad atmosphere of our soldiers. Every soldier who cried has a blood feud with the Qin people. These talents are our foundation."

Just like what you uncles said, the Tian family has a century-old foundation in Qi. This is something we cannot compare with. The only thing we can compare with is bravery. The Tian family has been defeated in many battles and cannot protect the Qi people, and I If the Qi army can completely annihilate Feng Jie's tribe, the Qin army in Qi will be annihilated by us. To the people of Qi, we will be the ones who free them from the violent Qin.

But the Tian family is a person who has lost his country, a Tian family who has suffered repeated defeats. Qi people know how to choose. Therefore, for our army, the more Qin people we annihilate, the stronger our legal system in Qi will be. "

Xiang Yu thought about how all the soldiers in the army were crying after he defeated Zhang Han, and he understood that these soldiers followed him to defeat the Qin people. If he could not do this, he would be abandoned by these soldiers. They were originally If outsiders are abandoned by soldiers again, it will be impossible for them to gain a foothold in Qi.

Xiang Bo and Fan Zeng looked at Xiang Yu in surprise. They had never thought about this. Indeed, they were outsiders compared to the Tian family. Only by obtaining the flag to rescue the Qi people could they gain a firm foothold in Qi.

Xiang Bo thought for a moment and said, "It's the same thing to destroy Meng Tian first and then Feng Jie."

Xiang Yu said: "It's different. The more Qin people we eliminate, the greater the contribution to Qi will be, the stronger the legal system will be, and the more Qi people will be willing to follow us. Moreover, my uncle has not thought about what Feng Jie will think at this time." ?
Zhang Han's troops have been annihilated by our army, and his contact with Meng Yi has been cut off by our army. At this time, Feng Jie has only two choices. One is to march westward with the entire army and fight decisively with our army, and the other is to see that Qi is incapable of doing anything. He led the army to surrender to Tian Heng to protect himself.

It doesn't matter if Feng Jie has a decisive battle with our army, but if he joins Tian Heng, it will be unacceptable to us. The people of Qi will think that Tian Heng saved the people of Qi. When we compete with Tian Heng for the land of Qi, the people of Qi will People will definitely stand by Tian Heng's side. Ninety percent of our army's soldiers are now Qi people. If they think the same way, this situation will be a fatal blow to our army. "

Fan Zeng and Xiang Bo woke up immediately. They had never thought that Feng Jie would defect to Tian Heng. However, although Feng Jie still had tens of thousands of Qin soldiers in his hands at this time, he was already in a desperate situation. It was very possible for him to defect to Tian Heng. things. The two found that they had no capital to take risks, so they could only continue to attack Feng Jie to gain the approval of the Qi people.

Next, Xiang Yu's troops rested in the opera pavilion for a day, settled the wounded, cleaned the battlefield, and then moved towards Jimo.

And with the Qin people as a comparison, no matter how cruel the policy is, it is a good policy. The king of Han wants their land at most, but the Qin people not only want their land, but also their family property, and the lives of their whole family, and the cruel Qin people Compared with other people, the king of Han seemed kind-hearted.

Of course, they had heard about the price paid by the powerful nobles of Chu State, but after all, there was a layer of empathy that was difficult to penetrate.

"Report, General, there are a large number of Qi people in front of us who want to work for the army."

Therefore, they were extremely envious of the people of Chu State. The King of Han drove out the Qin people in Chu in one year, and the people of Chu State hardly suffered from the war. Seeing this situation, the nobles and powerful people of Qi State were extremely envious.

The powerful aristocrats and even ordinary people of Qi State were extremely envious of Chu people for having Xu Fan (for them, Han State was Chu State.) In the face of encirclement and suppression by hundreds of thousands of Qin troops, Xu Fan was able to win many battles. , annihilated hundreds of thousands of Qin troops, revived the entire Chu State at a very small cost, and now can lead hundreds of thousands of troops into Qin.

Soon, the road was filled with people from Qi State. When these people saw Xiang Yu's army, they cheered and cheered loudly throughout the sky.

But Xiang Yu's 4 troops had just reached Changguo County.

The soldiers of Xiang Yu's army were welcomed as heroes by the people of Changguo County.

Fan Zeng and Xiang Bo sighed when they saw this scene: "This time I am short-sighted. I only see the immediate interests, but do not see the heart of Qi people. After decades of failure and sinking, Qi people need this so much." The victory was achieved, Yu’er’s idea was correct.”

"What a good man I am, Daqi!"

"Laojun?" Although Xiang Yu was a little surprised, he still led the soldiers to move forward.

Correspondingly, the three Tian brothers, heroes of the Qi State, were defeated every time they fought against the Qin army. Hundreds of thousands of troops died every time they were defeated. They no longer dare to listen to Tian Heng's battle reports. , for fear of hearing about another unprecedented defeat, but the three Tian brothers, who had been defeated repeatedly, were already the heroes who dared to resist the violent Qin. Other heroes in Qi did not even dare to raise Banner resisted the violent Qin.

"You must win and drive all the Qin people out of Qi."

Although the three Tian brothers were the first batch of people to oppose Qin, their record was too poor and they were defeated repeatedly. Hundreds of thousands of good men from Qi who followed them died, but they still did not drive the Qin people out of Qi. country.

Xu Fan's achievements made everyone in Qi, from the powerful nobles to the ordinary people, cry out in their hearts: "Why don't we in Qi have such great heroes?"

Fan Zeng is right. The people of Qi need this victory so much. Although Qi has been a powerful country for 800 years, after the Five Kingdoms conquered Qi, it was as if its backbone was broken. It no longer has any good results with the outside world. He even surrendered without a fight, causing people all over the world to ridicule Qi people for not having a man.

After the great victory of Juting, the Qin army's 5 elite cavalry were annihilated. When the news came out, it was like a thunderous thunder, arousing huge reverberations in the land of Qilu, giving all the people of Qi an unprecedented surprise.

Look at these cheering Qi people, as long as Feng Jie's tribe is annihilated, Yu'er will become the savior of Qi people, and they will support Yu'er as the king of Qi people. A Tian Heng who has suffered repeated defeats will not be accepted by the Qi people, even if they are relatives of the Tian clan. "

When the people of Qi saw the bloody armor of Xiang Yu's army, not only were they not afraid, they even cheered loudly: "No wonder such elites can annihilate 5 Qin cavalry."

It has been three years since the three Tian brothers rebelled against the Qin Dynasty. In the past three years, Qi has become a Shura battlefield. Hundreds of thousands of troops have been killing people back and forth, leaving hundreds of thousands of Qi dead. Millions of people have fled, and blood has flowed all over Qi. Every inch of the land, these three years of war have made the people of Qi deeply aware of the importance of having a strong army.

These voices of praise for them made Xiang Yu's soldiers involuntarily hold their heads high and accept the praise from everyone.

Who says they Qi people can't fight? Qi people also have heroes who can annihilate Qin people's most elite forces.

Xiang Yu's victory gave all the people of Qi hope to rebuild the glory of Qi.

When Xiang Yu and others continued to advance, the people on both sides of the road came to greet the army with flowers, food and fruits in their hands.

As the soldiers marched, people waved colorful flags, drums sounded loudly, and cheers came and went.

When the people of Qi handed the fruits and food they brought to the soldiers, an old man walked up to the general with a bowl of wine. His eyes were full of gratitude and admiration and said: "General, although Changguo County is insignificant, But we are extremely proud of the victorious record of you and your soldiers, and we will treat you and your soldiers to a drink to express our respect and gratitude."

Xiang Yu took the drink from the old man with a smile, drank it down in one gulp, and then saluted everyone around him: "Thank you all for your warm hospitality and support."

The old man Jian said: "General, you and your soldiers helped us kill our enemies and protect our homeland. We are grateful! You are our hero, and we will always remember your deeds."

The old man said again: "The general is going to kill the enemy. I wish the general will be victorious in every battle and kill all the people of Qin."

Xiang Yu said: "I, Xiang Yu, once again swear that as long as I am in Qi, I will kill all the people in Qin to avenge my father. I will revive Qi again and make Qi a powerful country again, standing proudly in the world!"

All the people who heard this cheered for joy.

Thousands of young men came to Xiang Yu and said, "We are willing to follow the general and kill all the people of Qin."

Xiang Yu walked over and laughed loudly: "Our army needs strong men like you to join us."

Qi State, Gaomi.

News of the Battle of Juting reached Gaomi and caused a huge response. Although the Qi people did not dare to celebrate blatantly because of the suppression by the Qin army, there was already an undercurrent surging below. "Brother, we in Qi finally see hope. General Xiang Yu annihilated 5 Qin troops in one battle. We should mobilize our family connections to support General Xiang Yu. As long as we continue to strengthen General Xiang Yu's power, it won't be long before Feng Jie, Mengtian and others The people of Qin will all be defeated by General Xiang Yu, and the people of Qin will not be able to stay in our land of Qi." Yan Yu said excitedly.

He is a descendant of Yanzi, the famous prime minister of Qi State. Of course, the family is now in decline and can only be regarded as a powerful one. However, a family like theirs hates the Qin people even more, because the Qin people not only deprived their family of their political status, but now even the original Even the little land will be taken away.

There are no outstanding children of the Yan family who dare not raise troops to fight against Qin. They only secretly support Tian Heng with grain, grass, weapons and equipment. It is precisely because of the secret support of these powerful nobles of Qi that Tian Heng can easily pull out tens of thousands of troops, but he never He does not worry about the problem of food, grass, weapons and equipment, because the entire Qi State is supporting him.

Although Yan Yu's brother Yan Ming was also excited about such a great victory, when he heard that he was going to support Xiang Yu, he still frowned and said: "We have already supported Prime Minister Tian Heng. It is not good to change the family now. Moreover, Xiang Yu is from Chu and cannot be counted as our own." people."

Yan Yu sneered: "Tian Hengdao is from Qi, and we have given him our best support, but how can he repay our support? In three years, millions of Qi people supported him, and even hundreds of thousands of Qin troops They can't drive them away, now Tian Heng owes all the Qi people an explanation as to why he still can't defeat the Qin people despite the entire Qi country supporting him."

"Now that General Xiang Yu can defeat the Qin people, we will support him. Is there anything wrong with this? Who does Tian Heng have to blame me? If I want to blame him, don't blame him for not being able to defeat him."

"As for General Xiang Yu not being from Qi, this is nonsense from ignorant people. The Xiang family originally lived in Xiangcheng in our Qi State. General Xiang Yu's ancestral home is in Qi. Now he is also fighting for our Qi State. Why can't he be counted? Qi people, and it is better for us to support General Xiang Yu than to support Tian Heng, a defeated general."

Tian Heng disappointed everyone in the Qi State. He had a lot of weapons and equipment to support him, but the results he achieved were very small. Even now, it is not known that he annihilated tens of thousands of Qin troops at one time. Instead, he often lost tens of thousands in one defeat. Even the investment of hundreds of thousands of troops and Qi nobles in Tian Heng was almost completely wasted.

But if you don't invest in Tian Heng, you have no other choice. Except for the three Tian brothers who dare to carry the banner of anti-Qin, there are no other heroes in the entire land of Qilu.

The emergence of Xiang Yu finally gave these Qi nobles a new choice. They were even willing to explain and patch Xiang Yu's identity.

Three years of bloody war cruelly educated the powerful nobles of Qi and made them understand the value of peace. They eagerly hoped that a great hero like Xu Fan would appear to end the war in Qi.

Tian Heng's poor performance for three years told the powerful nobles of Qi that Tian Heng was not the great hero they were waiting for.

Although Xiang Yu is just a fledgling, he has already shown the same characteristics as the King of Han. He is highly skilled in martial arts and can lead the army. In one battle, he can annihilate 40,000 to 50,000 Qin troops. Isn't this the King of Han who conquered their territory? The nobles of Qi naturally chose Xiang Yu, who had higher growth potential.

A large number of Qi aristocrats, like the Yan Yu brothers, began to support Xiang Yu.

So Xiang Yu's army would receive a warm welcome wherever he went. The local people would work for the army, and local heroes would bring their own weapons and join Xiang Yu's army. Almost every day, thousands of people would join Xiang Yu's army, and they would follow the Qi people in the distance. After hearing about the victory at Juting, they all chased Xiang Yu's troops and took refuge with Xiang Yu, which caused Xiang Yu's army to expand rapidly.

Seeing this scene, Xiang Bo exclaimed: "After my eldest brother crossed Jiangdong, heroes from all over the country came to seek refuge. But I didn't expect to see such a scene again in Qidi today. It seems that the people of Qi have been suppressed for too long. They want to do it too much." Going to win.”

At first, the three counties of Chudong were the territory of the Chu State, and the Xiang family had the highest reputation among the three counties. Therefore, as soon as Xiang Liang took action, the heroes around him flocked to join him.

But this is Qidi. Apart from the nobles, there are only a few people who know about the Xiang clan. These people who joined them were obviously affected by the battle in Juting.

The words are divided into two parts.

When the Qin army under Jimo City learned that Zhang Han's 5 cavalry had been defeated by Xiang Yu's entire army, the news was like a thunderbolt from the blue. The Qin army generals such as Feng Jie were unable to react for a long time.

They completely couldn't figure out how the remnants of Xiang Liang, who had been defeated by them, could annihilate Zhang Han's 5 cavalry. They must know that they were an army reinforced by rebel equipment, and they could defeat 5000 elite rebel cavalry with only 1 cavalry.

"General, what should we do? Our connection with Linzi is cut off, and we don't have enough food and grass." Liang Wu, the captain of the Qin Army, asked with a hint of panic.

Feng Jie sighed and said: "Zhang Han's defeat has severely damaged the vitality of our army and greatly shaken the morale of the people of Qi. We can no longer stay in Qi."

In the past, the rebels in Qi had annihilated at most a few thousand soldiers, but this time they lost 5 troops and they were the most elite cavalry. This meant that the Qin army could no longer suppress the situation in Qi. Feng Jie knew that he would not escape now. There is really no escape.

Other generals of the Qin State also wanted to escape from the Qi State. They originally thought that dividing the land in the Qi State was a good thing, but they did not expect to stir up a hornet's nest.

The Qi rebels are endless. There is no time for planting on the land they were allocated. There are still 10 soldiers who have fallen on this land. They no longer want to stay in Qi.

Feng Jie continued: "We will rendezvous with General Meng Yi first, then cross the Yellow River and go north to Zhao State to rendezvous with General Meng Tian."

But the deputy general Wu An worriedly said: "Xiang Yu led the army to kill us. The rebels in Qi also defected to Xiang Yu, which made Xiang Yu's army expand rapidly. It is said that Xiang Yu now has 50,000 or 60,000 people. If our army marches to Linzi, it will definitely We will encounter Xiang Yu, and if Jimo Tian Heng also pursues our army, and is flanked by Tian Heng and Xiang Yu, our army will collapse even faster."

Feng Jie said: "The brave will win when we meet on a narrow road. If we really encounter Xiang Yu's tens of thousands of troops, just defeat them. If Tian Heng and others dare to come out, our army will defeat him first."

Feng Jie may be worried about Xiang Yujun, but Tian Heng, a defeated general, will not take him seriously at all.

The generals of the Qin army found that there seemed to be no other way except this method. The land of Qi had been completely eroded, and they just wanted to return to Guanzhong now.

The general of the Qin army returned to his camp, commanded the troops to pack their luggage and move out of the camp to prepare.

Jimo City, government office.

"It's a good thing, Prime Minister. The Qin army has retreated. Come and take a look. The Qin army is already breaking camp outside the city wall."

Tian Heng heard the news and immediately climbed up the city wall. Sure enough, he saw Qin soldiers packing up their camp, and some Qin soldiers had already begun marching to the west.

"It should be that the news that Xiang Yu defeated Zhang Han has been transmitted, and Feng Jie wants to escape." Tian Jie said excitedly.

"That should be the case. The people of Qin are now like dogs in water."

Jimo is one of the five capitals of Qi State and a large city. Although Feng Jie had tens of thousands of troops, he did not completely surround Jimo, so Tian Heng and others were extremely sensitive to external news.

The news that Xiang Yu defeated Zhang Han's 5 cavalry at Juting reached Jimo City in less than three days. At that time, Tian Heng's subordinates were extremely excited because their reinforcements were coming soon. But now that Xiang Yu's reinforcements have not arrived, Feng Jie wants to escape.

Tian Heng looked at the excited generals around him, but felt extremely bitter in his heart. Why wasn't such a victory achieved by them?
"Uncle, are we going out of the city to pursue him?" Tian Guang asked.

Tian Heng also had this idea, and he was about to nod.

But Tian Jie next to him immediately stopped him and said: "Don't chase after you return to the army. Even now, the strength of the Qin army is still superior to ours. Our army relies on Jimo City to barely resist the Qin army. If we go to fight with the Qin army outside the city, the Qin army will Our army will definitely be defeated."
