The Summoning World of the Great Qin Empire

Chapter 883 Start to close the net

After conquering Shangyong, Wuling was the next step. Xiang Yu ordered the army to rest for ten days to recharge their spirits and go to Hanzhong in one go. He also sent envoys to submit the letter of credence to the Kingdom of Shu. The content of the credential is as follows:

"Gu and your lord will hunt Hanshui, and now the victory and defeat have been divided, so the so-called natural danger is just like this; let's think of the virtue of God's love for life, I can't bear the military disasters suffered by the people of Hanzhong and Bashu, so that the lord can cut off the kingdom of Shu, Dedicating the passes and opening the city gates to welcome, we will definitely be able to leave Hanzhong County and continue the kingdom of Shu."

This letter of credence was written by Xiang Yu himself, and he wrote it with arrogance. After reading it, Li Shimin laughed three times, and returned a letter of credence in front of the envoy of Chu State:
"A widow defends the enemy from outside the gate of the country. If the king is strong and unreasonable, he will not forgive others. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers from Chu State will all be defeated by the Han River. If the king can't be a country, the king can't be a king. If you understand it, you can do it. But retreating from the military front, Shu and Chuxiu have a good relationship for a hundred years, and they will be able to protect the foundation, and pass it on to the second generation, the third generation, and even the eternal world. Isn't it a wise move? Why do you ask the wolf and the tiger to peep at the foundation of Chu when they meet each other?"

After Xiang Yu read the letter, he passed it on to all the people in the army to check, and said with a big laugh: "Li Shimin has lost his status as the emperor, and he is begging for mercy in the national letter, like a bereaved dog. Jiange, crush Hanzhong!"

"Break through the Jiange and crush Hanzhong!"

After five days, Gan Shan came to tell King Xiang that the weapons had been forged in the tent. King Xiang was delighted, and led a group of generals to the stove.

The fire in this furnace has been extinguished, but there is only a war halberd about four feet long on the stove, with a crescent blade in front of it and a sickle hook in the opposite side. There is actually a striped dragon carved on the handle of the war halberd, which is so lifelike. Just look at it at a glance. , I felt that there was an awe-inspiring murderous aura rushing towards my face, not to mention being hostile to it, even if I saw this weapon, I was already terrified.

Xiang Yu strode forward and stretched out his hand to hold the halberd in his hand, waved it around, and sonic booms rang out in the air.

Gan Shan took the opportunity to say: "This war halberd weighs 380 catties. Ordinary people can't even lift it, let alone pick it up. Your Majesty is born with supernatural power. He holds it in his hand and waves it like a straw. He is really a god!"

Xiang Yu's heavy pupils moved slightly, looked at the halberd and said to himself: "But all the sharp weapons of magic weapons have a name that shocks the world. I heard that there is a fierce general Yuwen Chengdu in the state of Qin, and the magic weapon in his palm is phoenix wings. In the state of Jin, there is a Fangtian painted halberd in the palm of the king of Jin. This magical weapon is a meteorite that fell from the sky, and it happened to land on Tianlong Mountain. In addition, this halberd was just forged, and Shangyong City was captured. The widow gave it a The name that shakes the world—Tianlong Breaking City Halberd!"

The smug Xiang Yu believed that the destiny belonged to him, if not, why would there be divine iron from the sky, and then he would meet the descendants of this go-getter?
"puff--"

As soon as Xiang Yu said this, Gan Shan vomited blood and fell to the ground dead.

"I heard that in ancient times, swordsmiths worked hard to forge swords. Sometimes the swordsmith exhausted all his energy and died just after the sword was forged. I'm afraid the same is true for this dry mountain!" Ji Bu said casually, his eyes on the sword. This dry mountain is incomparably respected.

After hearing this, Xiang Yu said: "For a generous burial, find someone to find out if there are any relatives and family members in this dry mountain. If there are any, the imperial court will give a certain amount of compensation, so that the world will know that I am very eager to seek talents." , will never be stingy with those who are loyal to the country."

"Here!" A group of people waited for this before retreating.

"Report—Your Majesty, a letter written by the Prime Minister has been delivered! The envoy is waiting for Your Majesty in the king's tent."

Xiang Yu raised his weapon and came to the king's tent. When he opened the letter and read it, the joy on his brows was even greater.

At the end, Xiang Yu looked at the many generals in the army and laughed loudly: "Do you love me, do you know where the joy of the widow comes from?"

Everyone doesn't know.

Xiang Yu then laughed and said: "A few years ago, I started planning to attack Shu, claiming to use all the power of the whole country, and wanted to attack Shu from Shangyong. Do you know why?"

Everyone said one after another: "Your Majesty has the intention of sweeping the universe and covering all the wilds, and we are willing to follow."

"Haha..." Xiang Yu laughed and shook his head, but said: "Think about it, generals."

"Could it be that it's the intention of making a noise?" Suddenly, Ji Bu interjected.

Xiang Yu clapped his hands and said: "It's still my general who knows my heart. I claim to mobilize the power of the whole country to attack the territory. Our army gathered 30 troops in Shangyong. Li Shimin also mobilized the power of the whole country to resist. Who would have thought that, The widow also has a strange soldier, who crossed the Three Gorges and captured Jiangzhou City in less than half a month by water from the Yangtze River! In a few days, the troops will be able to come to Chengdu. The luck of Shu has been completely lost, and our Great Chu will surely prosper!"

"what--"

All the soldiers were shocked when they heard this. In this way, isn't half of the land of Bashu already in the hands of Chu State?

"Your Majesty, I still don't know who is leading the army?"

"Haha, it is Huang Gai and Gan Ning, the navy generals under Wang Meng's command." Xiang Yu was extremely proud, "I have led the army to fight abroad for several years. How did you do this trick? Even if it is this Li Shimin has a hundred or a thousand heads, so how could he imagine that the widow would plot against him like this?"

"Your Majesty, Shengming!" The officials were really surprised and delighted. If King Xiang didn't say anything today, they would still be in the dark. It can be seen how well this move has been used.

"My lord, isn't it possible for our army to have a showdown with Li Shimin now? At that time, Li Shimin's north and south sides will not be able to look after each other, and the end of the Shu Kingdom is imminent." Xiang He said excitedly, "As long as the news spreads, the Chu army will definitely be in chaos. At that time, our army will take the opportunity to attack fiercely, and at the same time make friends with Lv Bu to prevent Lv Bu from sneaking from behind, and order Fan Zeng to pay close attention to the movement of Shangcai Qin, and Dantu Wang Meng to pay attention to the movement of Jiaxu in Hancheng. , there is trouble in the rear."

Xiang Ta, a figure who was said to be no weaker than Xiao He and Zhang Liang in history.And in the official history, Xiang Ta and Xiang Sheng are listed side by side as the two heroes of the Xiang clan, one is the general of the army, and the other is the pillar of the country; it is just a pity that Xiang Yu in the official history is headstrong and does not listen to other people's opinions at all. .

Xiang Ta attached great importance to the safety of Xiang Yu's rear, but Xiang Yu didn't care, so much so that Liu Bang gathered the allied forces of the princes and broke through the capital Pengcheng. Many people believed that the reason why Xiang Yu failed was because he did not have a stable rear and did not value himself. rear security.

It just so happened that after the soul of Liu Song Wudi Liu Ya and Xiang Yu merged into one, it made up for Xiang Yu's shortcomings, and could hardly find any shortcomings, so he was naturally willing to listen to the suggestions of his subordinates.

"This statement is reasonable. Xiangta, you can be an envoy to replace the widow in the state of Jin, and promise the king of Jin the land of the old Qin. As long as the widow goes south to the land of Shu, he will send his army to the north to defeat Guo Ziyi's army stationed in Anyi and take the land of the old Qin." Give the land to Jin." Xiang Yu thought for a while, and sneered, "Of course, you should remember that Lu Bu is a hungry wolf, and he definitely can't get enough to eat. You can make up your own mind when you go this time. Apart from promising the land of the old Qin, no matter what kind of request Lu Bu puts forward, he must not agree to it readily, and must fight for every inch of land!"

Falsehood and reality are the most deceiving people. Xiang already had a feeling in his heart that as long as the Kingdom of Shu was destroyed, Xiang Yu would absolutely show no mercy and send his troops to the Northern Expedition to wipe out Lu Bu, a serious trouble in his heart!
How can you allow others to snore and sleep on the side of the couch?

Xiang He cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, this time I'm going to be an envoy to the State of Jin, I'm sure I'll live up to my mission, and I'll definitely keep an eye on the State of Jin, but..."

"It's just something, but it's okay to say." Xiang Yu smiled lightly, very satisfied with his nephew, even if he made some requests at this time, he could also be satisfied.

"It's just that I feel that a certain amount of troops should be stationed in Fangling and Hanshui to prevent King Jin from coming to Yin!"

After these words fell, the entire military tent was filled with hissing sounds.

Xiang Yu thought for a moment, then suddenly looked at Huan Chu, the general under his command, and laughed loudly: "Huan Chu, I will give you [-] troops to station in Fangling, and obey Xiang him in everything."

"The last general obeys!" Huan Chu bowed his hands and accepted the order.

At the end, Xiang Yu continued: "Xiang Han stayed to assist General Huan Chu. You are the deputy general, and General Huan Chu is the chief general. I have always known that you are fierce, but everything in the army is dominated by the chief general. If you dare to attack General Huan Chu, I give General Huanchu the right to kill you!"

When Xiang Han heard this, he felt his hair explode. He was originally a fierce and burly man, but he looked at Xiang Yu eagerly.

Huan Chu immediately cupped his hands and said, "How dare the last general!"

Xiang Han is a member of the Xiang family, but the emperor's relatives, even if Xiang Yu said so, Huan Chu would not dare.But Xiang Yu's words made Huan Chu feel warm.

Xiang Yu is now very comfortable with such small tricks of involuntarily winning over people's hearts.

At that moment, Xiang Yu personally wrote a letter and handed it to Xiang Ta. Xiang Ta planned to return to Yingdu, prepare rich gifts, and then go to Jin State. No matter what the relationship between Chu State and Jin State would be like in the future, anyway. Now there are still good neighbors.

Huan Chu and Xiang Han led an army of [-] soldiers, but they deliberately stationed thirty miles north of Fangling when they sent out to Shangyong, and did not rush to Hanshui.

In other words, when Li Shimin retreated to Wuling City, looking at the many generals under his command, he hissed in his heart: "I didn't expect the Chu army to fight so bravely. If we don't pretend to be defeated this time, I'm afraid we will suffer heavy losses."

Li Jing said with a smile: "If it wasn't for your majesty's plan, the Chu army would not lose 10 people, and they would not be able to defeat Shangyong."

Under the acquaintance of the monarch and his ministers, they couldn't help laughing.

"Report——Jiangzhou fell, and the generals of the Chu army, Gan Ning and Huang Gai, led the army from the Yangtze River to the west, and captured Jiangzhou like a ghost. The Chengdu government is in a hurry."
