Back to Daqin to be Emperor

Chapter 484
"Report, tell the general that Xiang Liang has captured Dingtao."

Zhang Han got up immediately, came to the sand table, and then planted a military flag that marked Xiang Liang's small flag in Dingtao.

Looking at the situation on the sand table, the corners of Zhang Han's mouth could not help but slightly twitch.

After planning for so many days, Old Man Liang finally took the bait!

In order to allow Xiang Liang to enter Dingtao City, Zhang Han has exhausted his mind. In order to allow Xiang Liang to enter smoothly, Zhang Han retreated repeatedly, losing seven or eight battles in a row before finally ordering Xiang Liang to be dispatched.

Today, Zhang Han is stationed in Daliang, Waihuang and Waihuang, and the Shuai flag is placed here.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Han immediately said: "Beat the drums and gather the generals, and the commander has orders to convey."

After a while, the entire big tent was surrounded by generals and schools from various ministries. After everyone sat down, Zhang Han said, "At present, Xiang Liang's troops have captured Dingtao."

When everyone heard the news, their faces were a little ugly.Recently, for some reason, Qin Jun's successive defeats have already made everyone feel a little uncomfortable.

They also didn't understand why Zhang Han, who made almost no mistakes in dispatching troops at the beginning, made frequent mistakes during this period.

However, Zhang Han was the coach after all, and the loss was not too great, so although many people were angry, they did not vent it.

"I know that many of you are dissatisfied because of our army's repeated defeats during this period, but I want to tell you today that our chance has come!"

"This Dingtao is where Xiang Liang was buried."

At this time, many generals looked at Zhang Han with bright eyes, and instantly understood that the repeated setbacks before must have been deliberately done by Zhang Han, but to lure this beam into the bait. Now that this beam has been hooked, naturally There is no need to hide any more.

At this time, Meng Yi also showed a look of sudden realization.

It was precisely because he heard that the Qin army was repeatedly defeated that Meng Yi came to the army to find out what happened in the name of escorting food and grass. In his impression, this was not what Zhang Han should be.

But now, if Dingtao is regarded as a bait according to Zhang Han's intention, then everything will make sense!

Meng Yi smiled and said: "No wonder the general was defeated before, but he was still standing between Xingyang and Dingtao."

"Based on normal reasoning, the general should have retreated to Xingyang. Xingyang relies on Ao Cang and has sufficient food and grass. It is an excellent place to recharge your energy."

"But now the general is using Dingtao as a bait to put on a decisive battle with the Chu army. It is obviously a bluff to attract Xiang Liang to Dingtao firmly. Compared with the fact that the general has already sent troops to cut off Xiang Liang's retreat. right?"

"General Meng and I really see the same thing." Zhang Han was not annoyed when his arrangement was pointed out by Meng Yi, but he agreed with a smile.

Meng's family is a family of military exploits, steeped in military affairs throughout the ages, even though Meng Yi is only working as a civil servant on the surface, but in fact his military level is probably not as good as that of some old generals.

At this moment, he only slightly revealed that Dingtao was a bait, and it was not difficult for Meng Yi to guess that this was a trap set up by Zhang Han for Xiang Liang.

"Of course it is." Zhang Han simply stated his plan in one breath, and said, "Now, I have sent the Yulin Army to Dingtao first to cut off Xiang Liang's retreat."

"The most important task right now is to encircle Dingtao, Xiang Liang must not be let go!"

Everyone nodded in agreement, their eyes sparkled with excitement. Obviously, if this battle goes well, there is no doubt that everyone will have an extra military merit.

Zhang Han immediately began to deploy, and the entire army was divided into two by Zhang Han. Among them, the old soldiers of the Qin army were commanded by Meng Yi, and the other part was the prisoner army. The two sides marched towards Dingtao along different routes.

After finishing all the arrangements, Zhang Han said: "I will stay here for another three days, and I will set off in the future to attack Dingtao with you."

"Xiang Liang entered Dingtao when he first entered Dingtao, so he must not have brought much food and grass. Our army must return all the merits of this battle."

"Promise." Many generals present promised loudly, the excitement in their eyes was beyond words.

............................................................

Xiang Liang was standing at the gate of Dingtao's mansion with a smile in his eyes.

This Zhang Han is not very good!

This is how Xiang Liang and Zhang Han felt when they fought against Zhang Han during this period of time. Facing the flaws shown by Zhang Han, Xiang Liang was able to accurately find out every time, and then quickly dispatched troops to deal a big blow to the Qin army. .

For example, this Dingtao city was actually captured by Xiang Liang from a loophole in Zhang Han before it was taken from the Qin army.

Ever since the Chu army fought against the Qin army, there have been more victories than defeats, which made Xiang Liang extremely satisfied.

At the same time, he also despised Chen Sheng and his group more and more. As expected, they were born with mud legs, and they were ignorant of military tactics and strategies, so they lost to Zhang Han in the end.

If Chen Sheng's army had a well-informed soldier, he would not have lost so badly. First, Zhou Wen's army of nearly 30, and then Tian Zang's army of more than 20.

If the 50 troops were in his own hands, the Chu army might have taken Xianyang by now, Xiang Liang thought happily.

Now Xiang Liang's full force is only one hundred thousand troops. Although there are no old, weak, sick or disabled among them, if he relies on these troops to fight the Qin army, it is still a bit hanging!
Xiang Liang was not in a hurry about this. Now he had taken over the position of leader of the world's rebel army. First, he established King Huai of Chu, and he had already established a foothold in righteousness.

Afterwards, facing the Qin army, they won consecutive victories. Just because of these two points, all the anti-Qin people in the world turned to Xiang Liang!
With the expansion of the territory and people who continued to serve him, Xiang Liang felt that he only needed to manage a little more, and his strength would gradually surpass that of Qin.

Xiang Liang felt more and more satisfied and gratified that Chu State was reestablished in his own hands, and became stronger day by day in his own hands, and finally defeated Tyranny Qin.

"It's just a pity that Mister is not in Dingtao." Xiang Liang couldn't help feeling a little regretful that he should bring Fan Zeng by his side in this battle.

If that was the case, he might still be able to ask him for advice at this time. Now that Zhang Han is stationed in Daliang, he has not retreated just now, and obviously he still has plans to fight Xiang Liang.

Xiang Liang also felt that he needed to defeat Zhang Han once. Although he had won all the previous victories, it was just that those were small fights and could not be regarded as a real big victory.

Only a complete victory can completely establish his position as the No. 1 anti-Qin in the world, and only in this way can he attract strange people from all over the world to join him in Chu State.

He, Chu State, might be able to learn from Qin State in the future and bring the whole world into his pocket.

Once, Xiang Liang didn't even dare to think about this goal. At that time, Xiang Liang was only thinking about when he could get rid of the days of fleeing and restore the state of Chu.

During those years, Xiang Liang couldn't see the way forward, and Ying Zheng's existence was always weighing on him like a mountain, making him almost out of breath.

But at this moment, Ying Zheng died, and Xiang Liang knew that his chance had come!
Step by step to today, Xiang Liang's ambitions have also grown bigger step by step!
The people of Qin can swallow the whole world, so why can't the people of Chu do it?With the version of the Qin people in front, such ambitions also surged in Xiang Liang's heart.

However, Xiang Liang knew that in Dingtao, he could only make the decision by himself!
Fan Zeng had already been left in Chen County by him. After all, Chen County had just been occupied not long ago, and a resourceful person was needed to guard it there to prevent any accidents.

However, at this time Xiang Liang faced Zhang Han with full confidence.

"My son Fusu, it is unwise for you to make Zhang Han commander in chief!" Xiang Liang couldn't help but think of Fusu far away in Xianyang. up!

For the next few days, Xiang Liang stayed in Dingtao City and began to plan for the decisive battle with Zhang Han.

The preparations for a battle of 10 people on both sides are naturally extremely cumbersome, but on this day, a soldier of the Chu army hurried in with a very ugly face, and said: "General, I don't know where you came from." A wave of the Qin army has been captured, and our army's supply route has been cut off."

"Ok?"

Xiang Liang got up immediately, but remained calm in his heart, and said, "What's going on?"

The pawn immediately pointed out several places on the map, and said that these places had been occupied by the Qin army.

Xiang Liang frowned slightly. Such a situation surprised him a bit. He didn't know whether this was a small group of Qin troops, or it meant that a large number of Qin troops were about to come to Dingtao after this.

But Zhang Han's handsome flag did not move!
Generally speaking, where the handsome flag is, it means where the main force of the Qin army is. This may be Zhang Han's conspiracy.

Its purpose is to force myself to retreat from Dingtao!
For a moment, Xiang Liang fell into hesitation.

"Go and investigate again." Xiang Liang thought for a while, then made a decision and issued a military order to the pawn.

Anyway, you should find out the situation first, if you don't know the specific situation, then retreat, and Zhang Han is just scaring him, then Xiang Liang's face in front of the world will be completely humiliated!
In the future, if anyone in this world wants to join him, they will probably have doubts in their hearts, thinking that Xiang Liang is such a cowardly person, how can he fight to the death with the Qin army?

When the two armies were facing each other and fighting wits and courage, Fu Su sat on the throne and listened to Xiao He's report.

Now, the autumn harvest in Guanzhong has been completed. Thanks to Fusu’s freeing of a large number of slaves and the distribution of farmland to the people in Guanzhong, the grain production has been increasing this season.

In this point, there is also the credit of Tunying.

The Tunnel Camp was originally established by Fusu in Jiujiang County, and it is a rather special force.One of its intentions is to open the way for the troops to meet the mountains and build bridges when they meet the water.

However, from Fusu's point of view, the current war is still at the stage of small fights and mediation. Therefore, Fusu never asked the Tunying to support the frontal battlefield.

And the second intention is to use the tunnel camp to complete the repair of water conservancy and so on.

If you want the crops to grow well, first of all, it depends on whether God rewards the food, and secondly, it depends on the land.The land in Guanzhong is fertile and fertile for thousands of miles, so there is no major problem.

But this water depends on God!

However, there are not no big rivers in Guanzhong. Xianyang is built on the edge of the Weishui River. However, the only way to make the Weishui River benefit thousands of households in Guanzhong is to build water conservancy projects.

The Zhengguo Canal was originally used by the six kingdoms of Shandong to waste the strength of Qin State, so that Qin State had no time to take care of Shandong.

It's a pity that the person who dug the hole in the end buried himself instead!Qin Guo not only jumped out of this big pit, but also kicked all the six Shandong countries down.

Right now, Fusu is Ling Tunying doing some expansion work.

At the same time, Shaofu also developed the waterwheel and began to popularize it in Guanzhong.

In addition, Xiao He presided over the reform work and so on. A series of actions caused earth-shaking changes in the entire Guanzhong.

There is also the promotion of food protection prices. This time, Guanzhong has achieved a bumper harvest of grain, but the price has not dropped too much, and many people have benefited from it.

If those grain merchants dared to offer low prices, on the one hand, they would not be able to receive the grain; on the other hand, they might be reported to the government as soon as the price was announced, and then the government would come to their door, and the family would be destroyed within a short distance.

Literacy education has also been carried out in some areas of the entire Guanzhong. The work of this education is naturally the veterans who retired from the Qin army.

After training, these veterans are already able to read and write, and they know the local grassroots laws like the back of their hands.

In their spare time, these old soldiers naturally couldn't be idle, and in the village, there were many illiterate children, so those old soldiers took on the task of compulsory education.

Fortunately, Fusu has initially simplified the font, invented things like blackboard chalk, and made progress in papermaking and printing. All of these have laid a solid foundation for the development of grassroots education.

Seeing these gratifying changes, Fusu felt extremely gratified in his heart.

After coming to this world for so many years, he made a lot of efforts in the past years, and he has passed the initial difficult part and embarked on the fast track.

They are even related to each other, and the progress of one side often drives other industries forward.

Now, the gratifying progress of the tunnel camp work has naturally made them more motivated, especially after being commended by Fusu and having received the corresponding rewards.

Mi Xi, the head coach of Tunying, has already planned to dig a canal this winter to bring in the water from the big river. In this way, after the completion of this project, tens of thousands of acres of farmland can be irrigated.

At present, this plan is already undergoing relevant demonstration work.

Fusu's heart was extremely excited by Xiao He's report, which also showed that the reform had initially achieved results.

In just one year, the entire Guanzhong land has undergone earth-shaking changes.

If there are a few more years, then Qin State will once again have the strength to sweep the world, especially, this time, Qin State will have enough talents to be placed in all parts of Shandong.
