Chu and Han contend for the throne

Chapter 532
After Han Wang Han Xin met with Bai Mo, the conversation was not harmonious, but in the end Han Xin succumbed to Bai Mo's pressure, pinched his nose and agreed to cede six counties from Jibei County to Zhao Guo.

After seeing off Bai Mo, Han Xin, who came to Miao Nu Palace, was still angry.

Seeing Feng Miaonu, Han Wang Hanxin even felt a little guilty, because he had already promised to set aside two counties from Jibei County for his concubine's father and brother to act as Marquis, but now these two counties together with the other four counties They were all handed over to Zhao Guo, but it was impossible to honor the promise made at the beginning.

Feng Miaonv just asked about this matter, Han Wang Han Xin was speechless.

After figuring out what happened, Feng Miaonv didn't complain about Han Xin and Han Xin, she just cried heartbroken, looking at the concubine who I feel pity for, Han Xinxin almost suffocated in pain, and felt a little ashamed What kind of monarch is he if he can't even fulfill his promise to his beloved concubine?The hatred for the Han country in my heart became stronger.

The hatred in his chest was really hard to get rid of, and the thorn in Han Wanghan's confidence was planted here.

After June, the summer grain entered the warehouse, and a boatload of grain was continuously transported to the warehouse from Bashu, Jingxiang, and Jiangdong through water and land channels.

When Xiangzhuang inspected Aocang, the grain transport fleet from Jiangdong had just arrived in Aocang. This fleet traveled by water, with more than a thousand ships of various sizes, and the grain transported was 20 shi!

Looking around, there are black trackers on both sides of the divide, and the sound of the chant resounds through the sky, which is very spectacular.

Bai Lixian, who was in charge of raising food, grass, and military equipment, introduced excitedly: "My lord, Bashu, Jingxiang, and Jiangdong have all achieved unprecedented bumper harvests, and the harvests in Huaisi and Wei are also good. At least self-sufficiency is no longer a problem. Now grains and taxes from all over the world are being shipped to Ao Cang one after another, and nearly a million stones have already arrived in advance."

Xiang Zhuang nodded and said: "Ziliang, the grain and Fu from Jingxiang and Jiangdong will be transported to Ao Cang, but the grain and Fu from Bashu will not have to be transported all the way to Ao Cang. I plan to build another Shu Cang in Chengdu. Tun Shu grain."

Bai Lixian responded repeatedly, of course he knew the intention of Xiang Zhuang's move. Xiang Zhuang specially built a Shu warehouse in Chengdu to store grain, and his intention was self-evident. , That is to say, after the destruction of Zhao, it will immediately use a large-scale military force against Han.

The process of unifying the world is not too far away.

Thinking of this, Bai Lixian couldn't help being a little excited. He thought that after going through the two battles last year and moving the capital to Luoyang, Chu would need three to five years of recuperation before it could accumulate enough strength. However, the facts are not like this at all. In just one year, Chu State has enough soldiers and food again!

This cannot but be attributed to the reforms vigorously implemented by the king. It is the king's drastic reform of the state affairs that has created the current situation of Chu's talent, military power, and sufficient food and wages!
Xiang Zhuang seemed to be thinking about something, and after a long silence he said: "Everything is ready now, I only owe Dongfeng."

Bai Lixian was also speechless, he knew what the king meant, everything was ready in Chu State now, the three imperial guards stationed in Luoyang were mobilized and ready to fight at any time, and the soldiers of the prefectures had also completed their training. To be able to assemble and go out, the grain of Ao Cang is enough to support 50 troops to fight abroad.

However, Chu State still lacks a high-sounding excuse to send troops.

It was with great difficulty that Xiang Zheng planted a thorn among the three countries of the Lianheng Alliance. If the effect of this thorn could not be brought into full play, it would only mean that Xiang Zhuang was not as capable as the prince.

With the current strength of Chu State, it is actually not a problem to single out the Lianheng Alliance. As long as you take a defensive position against the two countries, and then concentrate on destroying one country first, and then defeat the remaining two countries one by one, how can Chu State It is said that there is a [-]% chance of winning, but in this way, the unification process will be protracted, and it may even last for three to five years.

But Xiang Zhuang doesn't want to drag it on for so long anymore, he is determined to rule the world within this year!
Therefore, Yan State must be dragged into the battle group, and then Chu State can send troops into Zhao State in the name of mediation. Only in this way will it not stimulate Han Wang Han Xin too much. It will disintegrate, then the Chu-Yan coalition forces will be able to destroy Zhao Guo with a thunderous force in a short period of time, and it will not consume too much national power.

Then, after a few months of minor repairs, when the autumn grain is harvested, Chu will be able to use all its strength to attack the Han.

However, what can be done to drag the country of Yan into the battle group?According to the information provided by Wumuya, Yan Wang Zangyan's attitude has been somewhat ambiguous recently, and he has even been in constant contact with Heibingtai in secret. If Chu State takes the initiative to provoke a war at this time, Yan State will never participate in the war, and maybe it will Drag the Chu army back behind.

When Xiang Zheng returned to Lu County, Tian Heng, Pang Yu, Wu She and his party had already arrived in advance.

Tian Heng finally set foot on his homeland again after more than ten years. His mood is undoubtedly complicated, with joy and worry, but more of a loss, because at this time his "Qi State" can no longer be regarded as the real state. Qi State is now, rather than Qi State, it is more appropriate to say it is Xue State, because there is only one Xue County in his territory.

What makes Tian Heng feel even more disappointed is that his monarch is just a puppet, the military power is in the hands of the general Pang Yu, and the power of appointing and dismissing officials is in the hands of the prime minister Wu She, so he is just a symbol of giving orders. The only thing that is fortunate is that hundreds of Qidi tycoons migrated from Linzi.

But Tian Heng is very clear that if he doesn't have an army in his hand, these powerful families alone are not enough to support his royal power, so he has to be a man with his tail between his legs. In the final analysis, these powerful families can only give him verbal Although there is no support in the world, they cannot give substantial help, because they have neither power nor soldiers.

That's why Zhao Xi, the general of the Qi, led the 2 Qi army and let Pang Yu reorganize it?In addition to selecting [-] of them to form Xuejun's soldiers, the remaining [-] people have all been condemned to various counties to become registered households. Although Zhao Xi was full of reluctance, in front of Pang Yu's strong soldiers, he How dare you have the slightest resistance?

So as soon as Xiang Zheng arrived in Lu County, Tian Heng put down his body and came to visit him.

The reason why Tian Heng deliberately lowered his stance in front of Xiang Zheng was that he wanted to show a submissive attitude in front of Xiang's father and son, so that Xiang Zhuang could be completely at ease with him, and then he could do whatever he wanted. In vain, when Tian Heng said his goodbyes and left, Xiang Zheng's expression was quite cold.

"King Qi's plan is big." Looking at Tian Hengyuan's back, Xiang Zheng said flatly.

Pang Yu and Wu She on the left and right seats looked at each other, and a look of joy flashed in the corners of their eyes. Compared with half a year ago, the prince's experience and temperament are quite different. It seems that war is indeed training people.

The topic of Xiang Zheng quickly turned to Xiang Zhuang, and he asked Pang Yu and the two of them: "General, Prime Minister, how is the father and king recently? There are two queen mothers, how are you doing?"

Wu She knelt down from the table and got up, and replied: "The queen and the concubine are very good, but the king is not in a good mood."

"Father is upset because of the killing of Zhao?" Although the killing of Zhao is confidential, Xiang Zheng, as the Prince of Chu, is naturally qualified to participate in it, so he roughly knows about it.

Pang Yu sighed, "Isn't it just for this?"

Xiang Zheng nodded lightly, but a stern look suddenly flashed in the corner of his eyes that was not easy to detect.

After Pang Yu and Wu She bid farewell and left, Xiang Zheng first found the commander of Xuanyiwei stationed in Lu County, and then called Gao Lang to Xingyuan.

One day half a month later, a mysterious man suddenly came to Chunyu County and asked to see Bai Yan, the guard general of Zhao Jun.

Bai Yan had already lost most of the Jiaodong County that originally belonged to Zhao State. The reason why he was able to hold the last Chunyu County was not because the Zhao Army absolutely counterattacked and repelled the Chu-Yan coalition forces, but because the Chu-Yan coalition forces did not attack Chunyu County. Launching an attack, Bai Yan knew very well that if the Chu-Yan coalition launched an attack, the Zhao army would definitely not be able to defend it.

However, Bai Yan didn't dare to abandon the city and run away. With such a tragic result, if even Chunyu County gave up without a fight, then he might be beheaded by Bai Xuan after returning to Handan, even though Bai Xuan was his His family uncle, but Bai Yan knows very well that his family nephew is really disrecognized by his family's nephew.

"Who are you?" Bai Yan coldly looked at the unknown person in front of him.

"General, don't care who the villain is, you just listen to what the villain has to say." The unknown figure was short in stature and unattractive, but he was quite calm when he could do it. Facing the undisguised murderous intent on Bai Yan's face, This person was not only not frightened, he even appeared extremely calm, "In three days, Prince Chu and Prince Yan will go hunting in Anqiu."

"Prince Chu and Prince Yan will go hunting in Anqiu in three days?!" Bai Yan's heart was pounding. Anqiu is only 50 miles away from Chunyu County. The prince and the prince of Yan should be a great achievement, right?When I return to Handan in the future, I must have no worries in my head.

However, after the disastrous defeat in Tiger Leaping Canyon, Bai Yan was already full of rumors and all the trees were soldiers. He said coldly: "You dare to use mere tricks to lure the enemy to lure our army. Do you really think that this general is an idiot?" After all, Bai Yan Yan shouted again sharply, "Come here, drag this spy out with this general... cut it off!"

The mysterious man was unafraid, and just said in disbelief: "It's a pity, the general missed a great achievement, it's a pity."

Until he was pushed out of the gate by the knife and ax hand, the mysterious man did not change his face, Bai Yan repeated his thoughts again, and immediately ordered the knife and ax hand to stop, and then pushed the mysterious man into the shaft, saying in a deep voice: "Who are you? "

The mysterious man raised his head and said calmly: "General, it doesn't matter who the villain is. What matters is that Prince Chu and Prince Yan will go hunting in Anqiu in three days."
