Emperor Qin Ba Shi

Chapter 359 The Admiral Zhang Qiu’s Conspiracy (Part [-])
Xiang Yu is an impulsive, but absolutely rational person on the battlefield.

He is very clear that it is not suitable to storm Xiangcheng at this time.After all, Han Wangcheng is dead, and the new Han Wangxin hastily ascended the throne, and he does not have much influence in the country.

As a result, under the pressure of the [-]-strong army of Western Chu attacking Korea, Korea did not have much room for refutation.

In addition to surrendering, the city can only be destroyed!

For this point, Xiang Yu is absolutely sure, and Han Wangxin will definitely make his own decision.After all, a throne will never be more touching than being alive.

……

Xiang Yu led his troops to the city, and the Korean general Zhang Qiu couldn't sit still.He naturally knew that after Western Chu captured Wuyang and Kunyang in South Korea, Xiangcheng actually became an isolated island floating in Yingchuan County.

Now that Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, is in the city, the Korean court has no choice.

Either surrender, or withdraw from Xinzheng, the old capital!Other than that, there is no other way.

The situation was so precarious, General Zhang Qiu naturally couldn't stay calm as usual, because he knew that with [-] defenders, it was absolutely impossible to securely station in Xiangcheng.

The moon and stars were sparse, and the night passed by suddenly, Zhang Qiu frowned, but couldn't think of a way out for a while.

Because Han Wangcheng was killed and Situ Zhangliang disappeared, General Zhang Qiu became the pillar of South Korea, and he is also the most eye-catching figure in South Korea's civil and military affairs at the moment.

He knew in his heart that the gate of Yingchuan County had been opened by the Chu army. Among the [-] pass cities in Yingchuan County, Xiangcheng did not store much food. If the transportation was cut off, it would collapse within a month.

It is knowing this that Zhang Qiu is so confused.After all, the life and death of South Korea is directly related to his rise and fall of honor and disgrace.

Just when Zhang Qiu couldn't figure it out, the envoys from the Chu army came all the way, completely panicking Zhang Qiu.

He knew that Xiang Yu, the Overlord of Western Chu, was different from Qin Emperor Hu Hai. If Qin Emperor Hu Hai came to attack South Korea, he could also form an alliance with other countries to contend.

Worst of all, for the sake of reputation, it is impossible for Hu Hai to massacre cities and kill people.But Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, is a variable. After all, Xiang Yu's massacre of the city is no longer a minority.

At the beginning in Xin'an, the army of 20 criminals would kill people if they said they would kill them.Such a cold-blooded Xiang Yu would never give them a way out.

"Hey--!"

"General, the envoys from Western Chu brought King Xiang's will, asking South Korea to surrender in Kaesong, and then merged into Western Chu..." There was a gloomy look in the old man's eyes, and it was obvious that he had lost confidence in South Korea.

"Get ready, the old man is going to see the king!" After a long silence, the general Zhang Qiu waved his hand and said, "Be quick and hold off the envoys of the Chu army at the same time."

"Wei!" With a nod in agreement, the old man turned around and walked out of the dormitory.

Watching the old man leave, Zhang Qiu's expression changed drastically.Naturally, he could hear the toughness of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, from the words of the Chu army envoy.

Therefore, he had to move faster.Otherwise, Xiang Yu, the Overlord of Western Chu, would have been destroyed before his military deployment was complete.

"Old minister, pay homage to your majesty!" Zhang Qiu came to the main hall with a complicated expression, and bowed deeply to Han Wangxin.

As for the situation outside the city, Han Wangxin naturally would not be ignorant, so seeing Zhang Qiu's arrival was like grabbing a life-saving straw in the midst of drowning.

The whole person became pleasantly surprised, and he looked forward to Zhang Qiu's ability to rescue him.Otherwise, he had just ascended to the long-awaited throne of King Han, and immediately became the king of subjugation.

"It's a public plan, I just listen to you." Han Wangxin knew the purpose of coming when he saw the general Zhang Qiu, and frowned sadly.

At this time, he had nothing to do, and he was powerless.After all, he had just ascended the throne and became king, and his control over South Korea was close to zero.

So far, he can only rely on General Zhang Qiu.After all, he still has a certain understanding of Zhang Qiu's reputation and ability.

"Your honor is my king." At this moment, the general Zhang Qiu did not hesitate, and said directly to Han Wangxin, "There are no rare goods in a poor country. Xiangcheng can't see it, so we should act at the right time."

This was Zhang Qiusi's way out after much deliberation. He knew in his heart that facing the [-] troops of the Chu army, it would be impossible for him to defend for a long time.

After all, the one who led the army this time was Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu whose reputation shook the entire Central Plains and suppressed all the countries in the world by himself.

In this era, no one dares to speak out and be sure to defeat Xiang Yu, and it is impossible for him.Therefore, at this critical moment, the only way out is to find another way out.

Hearing this, Han Wangxin's expression changed slightly, and he said, "If you dare to ask the general, how do you make a move?"

At this moment, King Han had an immature idea in his heart.But he didn't say it directly, but chose to ask Zhang Qiu.

Although Han Wangxin came to the throne not long ago, he also mastered a few emperor skills.

Glancing at Han Wangxin, Zhang Qiu's reaction to Han Xin's moment was also extremely strange.As expected of a person born in the royal family, he has a natural sensitivity to power and tactics.

After pondering for a while, Zhang Qiu paused and said, "At present, the cities of Wuyang and Kunyang have been destroyed. The army of Western Chu has already approached the city."

"The old minister did not hide the truth from the king. We are facing Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu. Moreover, our army has only [-] defenders, and the [-] troops of Western Chu are all elites who followed King Xiang to fight in the north and south. The veteran is not at all sure."

"Besides, it's a winter famine right now, and there's not enough food and grass reserves in Xiangcheng. If we continue to fight, it will last for two months at most. After two months, the Shangdang army and people will be in chaos."

"If the strange army from Western Chu attacked suddenly, the rebellious army would not be able to respond. If Xiangcheng belongs to Western Chu, South Korea will be in danger! Now our country is a county, and there is no way to retreat."

"What the old minister means is that it is better to form an alliance with the Great Qin Empire and disclose the fact that Emperor Qin canonized him. In this way, Hu Hai, the second emperor of Qin, will definitely feel the affection of South Korea."

"Western Chu has also wanted South Korea for a long time, and so has the Great Qin Empire. Once our country completely falls to the Great Qin Empire, at that time, Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, will definitely seize South Korea and attack the Great Qin Empire."

"When Qin and Chu fight, they must kiss Han. The alliance between Qin and Han is as solid as gold. As long as Qin and Han are united, they can fight against Chu invincibly!"

"Similarly, the siege of South Korea will be lifted immediately."

General Zhang Qiu's clattering words made King Han's blood boil with confidence, and then he fell silent again.

After all, he also knew that South Korea was too weak for Qin Emperor Hu Hai.He couldn't guarantee that the Great Qin Empire would face off against Xiang Yu, the Overlord of Western Chu, for Yingchuan County.

"Hey——" Han Wangxin exclaimed for a long time, "The general is good at planning, but it is not an easy task to join forces with Qin Ershi Hu Hai!"

"As an alliance with each other, there is not enough price. I'm afraid it will be difficult to impress Qin Er Shi Hu Hai."
