Chu and Han contend for the throne

Chapter 28 Wei Liao's Worries (Third Watch, Please Recommendation)
"It's impossible!" Liu Bang quickly recovered, stood up suddenly and said, "It's absolutely impossible!"

Yingbo also stood up with Huo Ran, and said in a low voice: "Xia Houying, have you made a mistake? Li Zuoche and Jin Shezu have [-] troops, and they are all elite troops who have experienced many battles, while the Chu army But there are only a few thousand remnants! You actually said that the remnants of the Chu army wiped out Li Zuoche's [-] troops? How is this possible!?"

"Yeah, how is this possible?" Liu Bang also echoed.

Peng Yue, Zhang Er, Han Wang Han Xin and other princes from all walks of life also nodded repeatedly, but they refused to believe it.

"Ah." Xia Houying sighed, and immediately told the whole story of the defeat of Li Zuoche and Jin She.

Liu Bang was silent when he heard the words, and after a long while, he said in an inexplicable tone: "Flooded? The Chu army actually dug the Huai River?"

The princes from all walks of life also looked at each other in amazement. They were no strangers to the strategy of flooding, but they had never heard of an example of one guy flooding an area of ​​hundreds of miles into a country!Xiang Zhuang is so cruel!There are hundreds of thousands of Chu people in Jiujiang County. He said that Yan was drowned?This cruel butcher!
After a long while, Zhang Liangcai said: "Fan Kuai was defeated first with fire, and now Li Zuoche was destroyed with water. When did this Xiangzhuang become so cunning?"

"It has also become more brave than before!" Chen Ping said in a deep voice.

"This Xiangzhuang has really become a thing." After Han Xin finished speaking, he was about to stand up and ask for a fight.

Suddenly hearing a loud sound of "Ping", Liang Wang Pengyue had already jumped up against the case, and shouted sharply: "Han Wang, Xiao Wang is willing to raise one hundred thousand elite soldiers from the headquarters, and immediately kill Ben Shouchun, and swear to kill Xiang Zhuang's son!"

Seeing Peng Yue calling for the fight first, Han Xin frowned and sat back down again.

Liu Bang groaned silently, but out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Zhang Liang and Chen Ping at the bottom right.

Chen Ping just shook his head, and Zhang Liang made a gesture to Liu Bang after shaking his head. Liu Bang understood it, and immediately drew out his sword and slashed at the wine table in front of him. After cutting off a corner, Liu Bang raised his sword and shouted loudly: "Gu should personally raise an army to attack, and you can go out with Gu Yi!"

"Promise!" Han Xin, Peng Yue, Yingbo and other princes from all walks of life stood up one after another and promised loudly.

##########
When Liu Bang rectified his army and prepared to go on his own, Xiang Zhuang had already led the Chu army into the mountains.

Looking back, Shouchun has been completely transformed into a country with a radius of hundreds of miles. From now on, the place name Shouchun will never appear on the map of China. It is likely to be replaced by Shouye Ze, or Shouhu Lake.

Counting the time, Liu Bang should already know the news of Li Zuoche's defeat by now.

Next, it's Han Xin's turn to act, right?Or Liu Bang personally led the expedition?
Thinking of this, Xiang Zhuang couldn't help but feel a heavy heart. Compared with Han Xin or Liu Bang, Li Zuoche is just a small fish and shrimp, and Fan Kui is even more insignificant. What is especially desperate is that when Han Xin or Liu Bang arrives, they will be killed immediately. After that, there must be a huge army of hundreds of thousands, which is definitely not something that the Chu army can directly contend with!
But then again, isn't this what Xiang Zhuang wants?

As early as when the Dongcheng army was reorganized, Xiang Zhuang had already thought about the future strategy of the Chu army.

Step [-]: Take Shouchun in a sneak attack, and obtain urgently needed supplies such as food and ordnance!
The second step: Relying on Shouchun and the nearby mountainous areas, fight a few beautiful victories, firstly to boost the morale of the Chu army and rebuild the fighting spirit, secondly to hurt the Han army, and draw out Han Xin or Liu Bang's army!

The third step: Relying on the vast Dabie Mountains, fight mobile warfare with the armies of Han Xin and Liu Bang. When the armies of Han Xin and Liu Bang are exhausted and dragged down, the food is exhausted, they are forced to withdraw, and then return to Jiangdong!

Now, the first two steps of the strategy have been completed, and the last and most critical move is left!
However, Xiang Zhuang always felt that there was a problem with the three-step strategy he formulated, but he couldn't find out where the problem was. He just had a vague feeling. Having more than 2000 years of insight, it can be seen that having more knowledge does not mean that you have a better strategic vision.

Such things as strategic vision are almost innate and cannot be replaced by insight.

Seeing that it was almost evening, Xiang Zhuang immediately ordered to camp, and then called Wu She and Wei Liao to him.

Xiang Zhuang deliberately explained his three-step strategy in front of the two, and then asked Wu She: "Sir, if our army can survive the encirclement and suppression of hundreds of thousands of troops by Liu Bang and Han Xin, how can we force them to retreat?" , and then return to Jiangdong, is there any hope of Dachu's revival?"

"This..." Wu She mumbled, "Of course there is hope."

Wu She said that he was hopeful, but his tone was very uncertain. Obviously, he did not think that the Chu army could survive the encirclement and suppression of hundreds of thousands of troops by Liu Bang and Han Xin.

However, the person Xiang Zhuang really wanted to ask was not Wu She, but Wei Liao.

When asking Wu She what to say, Xiang Zhuang kept watching Wei Liao's expression from the corner of his eyes. When Wu She finished speaking, Xiang Zhuang clearly noticed that the corner of Wei Liao's mouth moved slightly, which was obviously disdainful. Smiling, obviously, Wei Liao is also not optimistic about Xiangzhuang, let alone the more than 5000 remnants of the Chu army.

Xiang Zhuang immediately asked: "What does Mr. Wei Liao think?"

Wei Liao remained expressionless, as if he didn't hear Xiang Zhuang's question at all.

Xiang Zhuang couldn't help scratching his head. There is no doubt that Wei Liao is definitely a military strategist at the level of Sun Wu and Wu Qi. He is not only a master of tactics, but also a master of strategy. Wei Liao must know the shortcomings of the three-step strategy, but unfortunately However, Wei Liao was not willing to work for him at all, nor was he willing to advise Chu State.

No, I have to think of a way, I have to ask Wei Liao to advise Da Chu!

As the saying goes, as long as a person has weaknesses, even though Wei Liao is a great military strategist, he also has weaknesses, as long as he finds his weaknesses, he will be able to persuade him, but the question is, what are Wei Liao's weaknesses?

Femininity?Wei Liao is over sixty years old, still be tempted by beauty?

Fame?Wei Liao weakly crowned Qin, assisted Yingzheng and conquered the six kingdoms, how much fame is this?

Lilu?Wei Liao used to be the Taiwei of the Great Qin Dynasty. At that time, his family wealth was not only huge, but he still cared about Lilu?
Obviously, none of the above can be Wei Liao's weakness, so what exactly is Wei Liao's weakness?

All of a sudden, Xiang Zhuang's eyes stopped on Jing Qian, who was carrying a bulging sack, which contained the "32 Chapters of Wei Liaozi" written by Wei Liao.

Xiang Zhuang's heart suddenly moved, yes, Wei Liao's weakness is "Wei Liaozi 32 Chapters"!
At that moment, Xiang Zhuang ordered Jing Qian to untie the sack, took out a volume of military books from it, and said to Wei Liao: "Mr. Wei Liao, it has been a long time since I invited you to the army, and you have already considered it I understand, now, this general would like to ask you solemnly, would you like to serve Chu State?"

Wei Liao stroked his long beard, and said calmly: "I don't want to."

"Okay." Xiang Zhuang nodded, and said calmly, "Then don't blame the general for being cruel!"

"Is the general threatening to die?" Wei Liao said with a sneer, "I am nearly seventy years old, and my death is only a short time away, so how can I care about this, ha ha."

Seeing that Xiang Zhuang and Wei Liao were talking more and more stiffly, Wu She couldn't help becoming anxious, and quickly persuaded Xiang Zhuang, "General, you must not be rude to Mr. Wei Liao." After finishing speaking, Wu She persuaded Wei Liao again, " Mr. Wei Liao, the General also spoke in a fit of anger, and did not intend to offend, I hope you will not be offended..."

But Xiang Zhuang pushed Wu She away, and said coldly: "There are no idlers in the army!"

After that, Xiang Zhuang threw the military book in his hand to Jing Qian again, and shouted: "Jing Qian, tie this old guy under the big tree over there, and let him fend for himself, and then burn these dozens of volumes of military books. It's useless."

Wei Liao sneered at first, but when he heard that Xiang Zhuang was going to burn the book of war, his expression changed immediately.

Naturally, Jing Qian didn't care so much, so he led someone to tie Wei Liao under a big tree, and dumped dozens of military books in the sack on the ground, and immediately lit the pine torch with flint, and raised the fire to burn the military books When Wei Liao saw it, he became very anxious. He was not afraid of death, but he was afraid of losing "32 Chapters of Wei Liaozi", which was his life's painstaking effort!

"Slow down, stop!" Seeing this, Wei Liao stomped his feet anxiously, "Stop quickly, don't burn it!"

Xiang Zhuang raised his hand slightly, and the torch in Jing Qian's hand suddenly stopped. At this time, the torch was only a hair away from the book of war.

Only then did Wei Liao heave a long sigh of relief, and then he said to Xiang Zhuang in a pleading tone: "General, you can kill the old man, but you can't destroy the old man's hard work, this "Wei Liaozi 32 Chapter 32 was written by the old man in his later years, not only did he make many revisions to the previous work, especially this [-]nd chapter, it has never been handed down to the world, so you can't burn it!"

"Hahaha." Xiang Zhuang laughed loudly, "Sir, have you finally admitted that you are Wei Liao?"

Wei Liao was silent, even if he didn't want to admit it now, the most important thing was to save his life's work. Wei Liao didn't think Xiang Zhuang was trying to scare him. The massacre, the more than 20 native Chu people in Jiujiang County will be drowned if they are said to be flooded. Is there anything in the world that he dare not do?
Xiang Zhuang changed his face again, and said coldly: "It's fine if you don't burn the book of war, but you have to agree to one condition of this general."

"You!" Wei Liao frowned suddenly, and said rather displeasedly, "General, aren't you making things difficult for others?"

"Then tell me, why don't you want to serve Chu?" Xiang Zhuang said coldly, "Because I, Da Chu, destroyed Da Qin? So you hold a grudge against Da Chu?"

Wei Liao was silent, although this was not the main reason, it was also one of the reasons.

Xiang Zhuang said again: "Are you still worried that the feud between Da Chu and Da Qin is still unresolved, and the old hatred is still unresolved. Once Da Chu is revived, the survivors of the pre-Qin will suffer the disaster of extermination?"

Wei Liao's heart trembled, but Xiang Zhuang's words hit the nail on the head.

In Wei Liao's view, the hatred between Da Qin and Da Chu is indeed irresolvable. First, Da Qin destroyed Chu State, and then the Xiang clan, a descendant of Chu State, destroyed Da Qin. In the future, once Xiang Chu is revived, how can he easily let go of the survivors of the pre-Qin period?As a member of the remnants of the pre-Qin period, how could Wei Liao be willing to help the tyrant?
Seeing the difference in Wei Liao's expression, Xiang Zhuang knew that he had hit the mark. Dare is really the case!
But it is not easy to dispel Wei Liao's worries.

In fact, the hatred between Da Qin and Da Chu was really deep, and it was not easy to resolve it. Even if Xiang Zhuang was a general or even the king of Chu, it would be difficult to eliminate the hatred between Qin and Chu. Zhuang he didn't care about the hatred between Qin and Chu, but his soldiers cared very much, and the survivors of the pre-Qin period would never forget the blood debt Xiang Yu owed in Guanzhong! ##########PS: Today, the momentum of the Chu-Han rivalry is very good, and it even rushed to the weekly point list, which really surprised the swordsman, but the swordsman hopes that this is not a flash in the pan, and the swordsman is more I hope that Chu Han Zhengding can stay on the weekly point list for a long time, and even rush to the push list, please everyone!
