Chapter 923

Xiang Yu waved his hand to signal everyone to take their seats, and then said with a smile: "Everyone, don't worry, there is still a tough battle to be fought in the battle to destroy Shu, but it's not now."

After hearing this, everyone was more or less puzzled, and just asked why.

Xiang Yu said: "Look, dear friends, Li Shimin used to avoid the battle when he was in Shangyong. According to the Xiongguan Pass in Shangyong, he blocked me from going west, but now why, instead, he sent a letter of war and made an appointment to fight in the future. Outside Wuling City?"

"Just now, our army came to report and said that the troops of the Shu army were mobilized very frequently...but Li Shimin sent a letter of battle. What do you think?" Xiang Yu said meaningfully.

"What does your majesty mean to say that Li Shimin might run away, so before he left, he deliberately made a false move?" Ji Bu was the first to speak.

Xiang Yu nodded: "That's right! If that wasn't the case, why did Li Shimin go to war? It's just that there is one more thing that I still can't figure out."

"I don't know what the king is referring to?" Ji Bu asked along.

"Hanzhong County is not a small place. There must be something wrong. Although Wuling is not a mountain city like Shangyong, there are natural dangers to hold on to, but it is not a place that can be abandoned casually." Xiang Yu pondered, with thoughts on his face I really don't understand what Li Shimin means by this.

"Your Majesty... Maybe Li Shimin went south to recover Jiangzhou. There are many powerful foreigners in the southwest region. If Li Shimin can recover these people for his own use, it will be a force that should not be underestimated."

"Xiang Sheng sent a battle report a few days ago, saying that the army was defeated on the Yangtze River and has already gone to Chengdu. He wants to join forces with Huang Gai and others..." Xiang Yu shook his head and said, "Don't worry about him, the soldiers will come and cover the water with the earth." ! Add a platoon to scout horses, pay close attention to the movements of the Shu army in Wuling City, send people to the camp of the Jin State again, and ask them, should they send troops or not?"

Hearing Xiang Yu's words, Big Mac suddenly smiled awkwardly. Xiang Yu saw it in his eyes and asked, "Why is the general laughing?"

Ju Mac hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the food and grass we promised to the Jin Kingdom are still being withheld and not given to them. Now the people of the Jin Kingdom may still speak ill of the King behind his back. It is even more impossible to send troops."

Xiang Yu said coldly: "Back then Lv Bu was poor, so he was willing to listen to the widow's orders. Now that Jin's national strength cannot be underestimated, it is normal to have other thoughts in his mind, but this time, if they don't attack Shu, Not a single grain of grain will be given to them!"

"promise!"

After hearing this, everyone clasped their hands together.

Xiang Yu said again: "Ji Bu, Ju Ma Ba, you two will lead [-] troops first, no matter what Li Shimin's plans are in mind, our army has rested for a long time in Shangyong, the soldiers have enough energy, and the warriors have the heart to fight , is a good time to attack."

"promise!"

The two of them received the military order from Xiang Yu, ordered soldiers and horses in the barracks, and went straight to Wuling.

On the second day, an envoy from the east came outside the army commander and asked to see King Xiang.

When the generals on patrol saw King Xiang, they said that there was an envoy from the east, but they refused to reveal their identity and asked to see King Xiang.

When Xiang Yu heard this, he thought in his heart: Could it be that the courtiers from the Shu Kingdom want to take refuge in me?If not, why cover it up like this?
As for whether he was an assassin, Xiang Yu didn't think too much about it, because it was really impossible. He had absolute confidence in his bravery, and he was definitely not something that an assassin could kill.

"Bring it in!"

Xiang Yu sat upright, waiting for the visitor to arrive, and after paying his respects, he asked, "Who is your master, and why did you come to see me?"

The envoy said: "Here is my master's handwritten letter, please read it yourself, Your Majesty."

The guards beside Xiang Yu went down, took the letter, and presented it to Xiang Yu respectfully, Xiang Yu opened it, his beard and hair were all swollen, and there was a murderous look in his brows!
"Snapped!"

He smashed the desk in front of him with one slap, and said angrily, "Zizi! How dare you take advantage of my Chu State? If it weren't for my great Chu to hold back [-]% of Shu's troops, how could your Qin State be able to fight?" Directly attack Hanzhong? Come on! Pull this tall and generous Qin people out and cook them!"

Hearing Xiang Yu's words, the envoy fell half dead, and even stood there in a daze, forgetting to beg for mercy, he shouldn't die, who will die?

At the end, Xiang Yu said angrily: "Call the entire army, set off immediately, and go straight to Wuling! Order all the generals in the army to wait outside, I have something important to announce!"

"promise!"

The guard didn't know what his king saw, and he was so furious.

Not long after, all the generals in the army gathered outside. Not long after, they saw Xiang Yu wearing iron armor and riding a black horse coming out of the army tent. All the soldiers listened to the words of the guards, He just knew that Xiang Yu was angry, but he didn't know why.

General Zhou Lan has always been appreciated by Xiang Yu, and under the eyes of everyone, she won and asked, "Just now I heard the guards say that the king is angry, and I don't know why the anger of the sky?"

Xiang Yu gritted his teeth and said, "Everyone, do you know that Mrs. Zheng, the Queen Mother of Qin, has passed away?"

"I don't know!" Zhou Lan didn't understand, "Ying helped Su died, so what does it matter to me?"

"Of course it has nothing to do with mine, but Liu Bei who called himself King Cai in Shouchun a few years ago, after being defeated in the army, secretly went to join Li Shimin. Li Shimin always thought that he was the king, so he gave Liu Bang four Thousands of soldiers and horses are stationed in Fengxian County, with a radius of hundreds of miles. They can barely be called kings, but they never thought that Fengxian County had an ancient plank road that was abandoned for hundreds of thousands of years in ancient times. It was indeed given by Liu Bei. Found."

"Mr. Liu Bei mobilized soldiers and horses. From this ancient plank road, he touched the confidant of Qin State. He had already hit the underground of Xianyang City, but he was killed by Ying Wudi, young son of Yingfu Su. It's really ridiculous! Originally, Liu Xuande was dead. What does it have to do with me? But Qin Guoying helped Su's mother's funeral, went to the funeral from Xianyang, the capital road, followed the place where Liu Xuande attacked, and touched Hanzhong County all the way. In just a few days, Hanzhong County has been taken down. We wait Wearing strong and holding on, the soldiers shed blood and sacrificed to defeat the Kingdom of Shu and occupy the land of the Kingdom of Shu. It is not an exaggeration to say that every inch of mountains and rivers and blood is not an exaggeration. Then what is the credit for winning Fusu? Hanzhong City?"

When the people heard this, they were furious. They waved their weapons one by one and shouted loudly. They wanted to follow Xiang Yu's soldiers to attack Hanzhong City and kill Fusu.

Xiang Yu was furious and led his army to Wuling City quickly, while Li Shimin's army in Wuling City went south secretly to Jiangzhou.

After Jibu visited the horse and reported back, he was very surprised, but he didn't think much about it, and he would report to Xiang Yu immediately.

Xiang Yu was riding a war horse on horseback to urge the army to move forward when he suddenly got a letter from Ji Bu.

Chu Jiang Gongao happened to be beside Xiang Yu. Seeing Xiang Yu's posture, he asked curiously: "The king was angry before, why is he laughing now?"

Xiang Yu didn't speak, but just showed Ji Bu's battle report to Gong Ao, after Gong Ao read it, he also smiled: "I'm afraid Li Shimin led the army to the south, I'm afraid he wants to sit back and watch me go to war with Qin, and I don't know what your majesty thinks? "

"It's really unwise to go to war with Qin." After Xiang Yu got over that burst of anger, he laughed: "This time, I have wiped out all of Guangling County and Kuaiji County in order to annihilate Shu Kingdom in one go. When the army was raised, Kuaiji Wuzhong was the foundation of our dynasty, so there were many soldiers recruited, and the most elite army was also there. This time, all of them have been recruited. I am afraid that the land on the side will be swallowed up by the Qin State in an instant."

"It's just... let's forget it like this?" Gong Ao felt that this didn't seem like the overlord's mentality.

"Of course we can't just let it go like this." Xiang Yu said coldly: "Sooner or later, this world will belong to our country of Chu. The army will go straight to Wuling. At this moment, Wuling is already an empty city. Our army can drive straight along the Han River and send envoys to Wuling at the same time. In the barracks of the Jin army, tell them that they can retreat, and they have nothing to do here."

"This—" Gong Ao hesitated for a moment and asked, "Your Majesty, if you do this, I'm afraid that the Jin army will not let you go."

"What are you afraid of?" Xiang Yu smiled slyly: "At the beginning, the widow named Xiang Han and Huan Chu led [-] troops and stationed in the north of Fangling, just to prevent the Jin army from tearing their faces. If they really dare to fight, they will destroy Shu. country, destroy Jin country along the way!"

"Your Majesty! Destroying the Jin Kingdom still needs a long-term plan." Gong Ao cupped his hands slightly.

Xiang Yu nodded: "Don't worry, I will not act impulsively. It is indeed a hard job to go to Jin this time. How about the general and the giant?"

"Planning for the king, how can we avoid the important and take the light?" Gong Ao said without hesitation: "I just ask the king to give an order. This time, the giant general should obey me."

"Sure!" Xiang Yu agreed without thinking too much.

The speed of the army slowed down, and the soldiers also felt strange, but the king of Shu led the army south and didn't know where he was going to flee, but word spread among the army.

Five days later, when the army arrived in Xunyang, the defenders of the Shu army heard that their king had gone south. Looking at the mighty Chu army outside the city, the city officials guarding here immediately ordered the city gate to be opened to welcome King Xiang into the city. .

For such a knowledgeable person, Xiang Yu didn't make things difficult, he just recruited all the warriors in his city, left the soldiers of Chu State to garrison, and went straight to Xunguan.

Xunguan is only fifty or sixty miles away from Xunyang, and they are all in the upper reaches of the Han River. There was a general guarding Xunyang who surrendered in front of him. When Xunguan officials heard that Xunyang had surrendered, they naturally didn't think much about it, and directly showed the city.

Ten days later, Hanzhong County, except for the land to the west of Hanzhong City, and the twelve cities to the east, all belonged to Chu State.
