Chapter 890
Zhujishi, the guard of Chengyang, wrote letters to Yingdu and Liucheng at the same time as Pang Tong had guessed. According to Xiang Yu's previous regulations, all the military situation on the north side of the Yangtze River should be reported to Fan Zeng of Liucheng; It can be regarded as the regulations of the imperial court. All matters north of the Yangtze River are regulated and increased; all matters south of the Yangtze River are under the jurisdiction of the Prime Minister Guan Zhong Dali.

Because of the geographical location, Guan Zhong’s order issued by the central government reached Chengyang first. After Zhujishi opened it and looked at it, Guan Zhong gave a countermeasure, asking Zhujishi to mobilize 1 horses and divide them into ten. A thousand-man team, the distance between each thousand-man team should not exceed ten miles. In this case, once the elusive Zheng Guo army is found, they can encircle and destroy it.

Similarly, Guan Zhong also emphasized in the letter that the state of Chu is now considered to be an extraordinary moment. If you can avoid conflicts with the state of Zheng, you should not conflict with the state of Zheng. The complicated relationship between the two cannot be explained clearly in a few words.

After reading it, Zhujishi didn't think much about it, so he summoned the generals and 1 soldiers from the counties scattered around Chengyang. Although doing so might delay the spring plowing to a certain extent, it also There is no other way.

The state of Zheng in the north is ready to make a move. It has killed people on the land of Chu state and robbed the financial woman. Give him a look on my side, directly press the soldiers, and let's talk about it after it is destroyed.

But what Xiangguo said was equivalent to the imperial decree of the king, and Zhujishi would not think that he could have ten heads enough to chop off.

Xiang Ta, who went south from Chenliu, arrived at Fenghuai Town within a few days. This was the place closest to Chengyang when Cai Guonanxi was in it. It was also said in the document that it was looted by the Chu army.

For the sake of secrecy, Xiang He pretended to be the entourage of Zheng Guo's envoy to Chengyang, and a group of people came to the bottom of the Chengyang City Tower in broad daylight, submitted the letter of credentials, and withheld the pass to pay homage to the general.

Zhujishi naturally opened the gate of the city and invited the envoys in. Everyone came to the main hall and sat down with the guests and hosts. Zhujishi asked coldly, "I don't know why the envoy came to me?"

"This is a confidential matter, please general..." After speaking, the envoy looked around Zhujishi.

Zhu Jishi was not worried that the envoy was an assassin sent by Zheng Guo. To put it bluntly, he still had some confidence in his martial arts. This is also cannibalism.

After retreating left and right, Zhu Jishi saw the servant next to the Zheng Guo envoy, and suddenly came out, staring at himself, and before he could speak, the envoy's servant had already said: "General Zhu, you still recognize me?" I?"

"You are!" Zhujishi looked at this person, and suddenly felt very familiar, and when he looked again, he immediately got out of his seat, cupped his hands and said, "Zhujishi pays his respects to Deputy Ling Yin (equivalent to Ma Di's Guozhu) Sir!"

"Haha..." Xiang He couldn't help laughing, he quickly stepped forward, helped Zhujishi up, and then said: "The general is serious, I came here secretly this time because of Chu's appearance." Zheng Guo’s army’s rebellion must not be made public, everything can only be done in secret, understand?”

"The general understands, please take the seat, Deputy Commander Yin!" Zhu Jishi cupped his hands and made a gesture of invitation.

Naturally, Xiang He didn't refuse, sat on his seat, and said, "I just came from Zheng Guo's side, and I can be sure that there are no rebels from Zheng Guo's side. How do you deal with this matter now?"

Zhu Jishi then showed Xiang He the order issued by Lord Xiangguo in Yingdu, Xiang He looked at it and said: "This is to keep the land as the top priority and avoid direct confrontation. Lord Xiangguo's method is indeed brilliant. "

"General Zhu, how many soldiers and horses are there near Chengyang?"

"There are [-] combat soldiers and about [-] auxiliary soldiers. It's just that it's the beginning of spring, and the auxiliary soldiers are all farming in the fields. Once mobilized, I'm afraid it will delay this year's spring plowing."

Xiang He said with a smile: "General Zhu is a general who pleads for the people. You can mobilize 1 people under your command to attack Zheng Guo. It won't take long for Zheng Guo to lead troops south. The two armies pretended to be fighting, and put on a show for those who provoked us."

"Of course, even though it's just pretending, a few damn people always have to die, so that they look decent." Xiang He continued: "But whether it's Zheng Guo or the soldiers of our country, they are all good men. You can’t die in vain like this, you can fill up the number of death row inmates in the nearby prison.”

"Here!"

Zhujishi bowed his hands and took the command, as if he was about to withdraw.

"Don't worry, kill a few people first." Xiang Ta said: "Call those who feel reliable, secretly propose a few death row prisoners from the city, behead them first, hang them on the tower, and announce to the public that they are the heads of Zheng Guo's envoys. , I will personally write a letter to Liucheng and Yingdu to explain the things here."

"Your Excellency is exhaustive, and my subordinates admire it."

Soon, everything was going according to Xiang's layout.

Zheng Guo took Lian Ta as his general, led [-] troops directly across the border, and set up camp at a place [-] miles away from Chengyang.

Zhujishi, the guard of Chengyang, stepped into the barracks that night, Zheng Guolian and his army were defeated, and they were defeated all the way to Ru'an Mountain, fifty miles away!
The whole country of Zheng State was shocked. Zhang Jiao, the King of Zheng, asked Jin State for help, but was rejected by Jin State arbitrarily, saying that Chu State is the suzerain state of Jin State and should not be offended. Pass.

It is said that when Zhang Jiao saw the letter of credence written by Lu Bu himself, he was so angry that he drove the Jin envoy out of the palace and ordered Ma Di, the pillar of the state, to lead an army of [-] to attack Chengyang.

On the other side, Xiang Yu, who had originally mobilized his troops to attack Wuling City, did not move after receiving the news. The battle report from the east said that the two armies were fighting and each would win or lose.

Xiang Yu followed the advice of Xiangguo Guan Zhong and stood still in Shangyong. Instead, he continued to mobilize troops from the Yangtze River, intending to destroy Shu from there.

The story is divided into two parts, Xu Shu led an elite army of five thousand from Li Shimin, all the way south, walking all the way in the mountains, and now it is spring, is it raining from the sky in Shu, all kinds of dormant The snakes and insects that had been there for a whole winter came out of the holes, and the speed of the march was once again slowed down.

Fortunately, Han Shizhong arrived in Chengdu early.

In the court hall, Han Shizhong and Hu Weiyong stood side by side, looking at Li Linfu in front of him with murderous eyes.

"Walking to the east of Hanzhong, there is the Three Gorges Pass, which is a naturally formed place under heaven. I was going to come back from the north, and I just wanted to hear Mr. Li talk about how the Three Gorges Pass was lost. Look at the Xiongguan Pass in Jiangzhou. How it was lost."

Li Linfu had a guilty conscience. Before Han Shizhong came back, he just confronted Hu Weiyong and refused to admit that it was his negligence that lost Jiangzhou.

"The Chu army appeared too suddenly, and I'm a literati, how can I resist the Chu army who is like a wolf like a tiger?" Li Linfu said casually.

"Oh?" Han Shizhong's eyes flashed with murderous intent: "Then according to what your lord said, the people of Chu are the masters of tigers and wolves, and the people of Shu are sheep waiting to be slaughtered?"

If Han Shizhong hadn't come back, Li Linfu would have dared to tell Hu Weiyong like this. After all, both sides are civil officials, and at most they would quarrel and play tricks. But when Han Shizhong came back, Li Linfu would not dare to say this, but just evaded:
"Tigers also nap sometimes."

Han Shizhong said again: "So, Mr. Li thinks he is a tiger?"

As soon as this question was asked, the warriors behind Han Shizhong had already started to quarrel.

"It looks like a sick cat."

"With such a thick skin, why doesn't your majesty use your skin to build a city wall?"

Li Linfu was calm, he didn't take these words seriously at all, he just waved his sleeves and raised his chin, as if he could scold you whatever you wanted.

"It's useless to say more. Li Linfu lost Jiangzhou and the Three Gorges Pass. If you don't kill you, it won't be enough to calm the army. What is left and right!"

"The end is here!"

A group of warriors stepped forward, and Wu Yunzhao glared at Li Linfu even more murderously.

"You...you...what are you going to do!" Li Linfu panicked and looked at Han Shizhong in fear.

Han Shizhong bowed his hands slightly towards the north, and shouted in a deep voice: "Your Majesty has orders. Tell me to come back and ask Li Linfu how he lost Jiangzhou City. As long as Li Linfu is willing to plead guilty and remember Li Linfu's past achievements, he can avoid the death penalty; but if Li Linfu bites If you don't plead guilty, you can be killed on the spot!"

"Where are the left and right? Go forward and kill the thief, chop off his head and hang it at the south gate of Chengdu to shock the entire army!"

"You—ah!" Li Linfu was about to escape, but Wu Yunzhao rushed forward, drew his sword and stabbed it in the back, and his whole body was lifted on the sword's edge, and when he pulled back, blood splashed violently Kailai, before letting go of the sword, he cut off the head.

"Hang on the tower!"

Wu Yunzhao held the head in his hand and handed it to the general beside him, who took the order to go.

Hu Weiyong watched the murder happen right in front of his eyes, but his expression remained unchanged, he just said: "Right now Jiangzhou has fallen, but the distance from Jiangzhou to Chengdu, there are countless passes on the Yangtze River, the Chu army wants to short It is not an easy task to come to Chengdu in time, the general still needs to send troops early to give the Chu army a head-on blow."

Han Shizhong nodded, and led the people to the side of the wall chart. Hu Weiyong took a file from one side, which recorded the deployment of troops.

From Jiangzhou to Chengdu, there are a total of four passes, which were rebuilt after Li Shimin occupied Shu.

After the Chu army took Jiangzhou, the first pass westward was Jiangyang City, the second was Bodao City, the third was Jiazhou, and the last one was very close to Chengdu, called Wuyang.
