Chu and Han contend for the throne

Chapter 77
The situation in Weidi has been completely reversed!

Mobs are mobs after all, and it is difficult to form a climate in a short period of time.

Under the stormy onslaught of Liang Jun, more than a dozen rebels led by Pang Yu, Jin Bo, and Zhao Deng were quickly defeated. Almost all the more than ten cities were lost, only Aocang, which was guarded by Chen Xi, and Xingyang and Chenggao, which were guarded by Man Qiuchen and Zhang Chun respectively, were not lost.

However, even if Aocang, Xingyang, and Chenggao have not fallen for the time being, they will definitely not last for too long.

Because Peng Yue's [-] troops have surrounded Aocang, Liu Kou and Lu Ze have also surrounded Chenggao, and as for Xingyang, they have been surrounded by Liu Bang and hundreds of thousands of troops from various princes. It's between night and day.

##########
In the dead of night, Liu Bang's big tent was brightly lit.

Liu Bang was leaning on the cushion and dozing off with his eyes closed. The long-distance and rapid march from Huainan to Liangdi, which lasted for more than half a month, really exhausted him. After all, he was almost 60 years old, and he was not as old as [-] years old. The strong young man, plus Liu Bang's lust, spoiled Bo Ji and Qi Ji almost every night, so he couldn't stand it anymore.

Liu Bang can still sneak in while Zhang Liang and Chen Ping are not so lucky.

In fact, Zhang Liang is not young anymore, he is almost 50 years old, and his health has always been bad, but this time, he still has to work hard to discuss the current situation with Chen Ping in front of the screen with a map. There was very little information, or almost no valuable clues, but Zhang Liang felt the danger almost instinctively!

This is an intuition, an unreasonable but extremely mysterious intuition!

"Brother Zifang, do you think it's strange?" Chen Ping frowned, and said in a low voice, "General Xiahou has captured no less than a hundred people from the rebels in various counties, and some of them are even the core figures of the rebels. , For example, that Zhao Deng is even the governor of Yingchuan County and the general of the rebel army, but even he has never seen a single soldier of the Chu army."

"This can only explain one problem." Zhang Liang said in a deep voice, "There are actually very few Chu troops who invaded Wei!"

Chen Ping nodded, and said with deep conviction: "I also think so, the so-called Xiang Yu, Long Qi, Fan Zeng, and the 50 Chu army are all in vain. In fact, the strength of the Chu army is probably less than 1 people, or even less, is precisely because the Chu army has few soldiers, so it is necessary to muddle up the situation in Liangdi, so as to fish in troubled waters."

"This is basically certain." Zhang Liang nodded, but his gaze never left the map, and he said, "The question now is, where did this Chu army come from? Where did it hide now?" What's more, what kind of fish does the Chu army want to touch after disturbing the water in Liangdi?"

Just when Zhang Liang and Chen Ping couldn't figure it out, Su He suddenly walked in in a hurry.

Sui He is Liu Bang's former deterrent (the small official in charge of reporting from above), this person is also quite capable, he once sneaked into Jiujiang alone to lobby Yingbo, and finally persuaded Yingbo to surrender to Liu Bang!
"Two gentlemen." Sui He Chong cupped his hands and said, "I have an important report."

Zhang Liang exchanged glances with Chen Ping, and immediately asked, "Tell me, sir, what's the situation?"

It happened that Liu Bang was also awakened, so he greeted Liu Bang again, and then said: "Your Majesty, I just read the official documents sent by the Nanyang County Sheriff to the King's account, and found that there was a letter sent to the Sheriff by the Magistrate of Chengyang County. The urgent report said that a Han army had looted a large village in the south of the county, and I felt that this matter was extremely suspicious!"

"Nonsense!" Liu Bang was furious when he heard the words, "It's simply nonsense."

After saying this, Liu Bang said murderously again: "Whatever, you can go and find out what is the surname of this Chengyang county magistrate, what is his origin, it is unreasonable, he dares to ruin Gu's reputation!"

"Your Majesty, don't be impatient." Zhang Liang seemed to understand a little bit, and immediately steadied Liu Bang, then asked Sui He, "Sir, when did this happen? Also, is there any information in the urgent report of the county magistrate of Chengyang?" How many troops does this Han army have?"

"Yes." Sui He nodded and said, "It was about twenty days ago, and the strength of this Han army was about ten thousand!"

"Twenty days ago?! Thousands of people?!" Zhang Liang clapped his hands and said anxiously, "Sir, please go and read the official document sent by the governor of Yingchuan to see if there is any news about this Han army in it." ?”

"No." He bowed to Sui He, and went to accept the order.

Liu Bang twirled his mustache, and said puzzledly: "Zifang, did you find something?"

Zhang Liang nodded, and said in an uncertain tone: "I just have doubts, and I'm not sure yet."

There was silence in the big tent, only the crackling sound of burning pine torches could be clearly heard. After about half a cup of tea, Su He He came back in a hurry, still holding two bamboo slips in his hand, just entered the room. The big tent bowed to Liu Bang, Zhang Liang, and Chen Ping and said, "Your Majesty, you two gentlemen, I found it!"

Zhang Liang hurriedly took the bamboo slips and saw that it was an urgent report sent by the magistrates of Kunyang and Xiangcheng to the prefect of Yingchuan. Passing through the two counties in a hurry, they neither handed over the customs to the local area, nor asked the counties to provide grain, grass and meat.

"Xiangzhuang!" Zhang Liang covered the bamboo slips with a snap, and sighed, "It really is Xiangzhuang!"

"Is this unlikely?" Chen Ping took the bamboo slips suspiciously, but his expression also changed drastically upon seeing it.

"Zifang, you mean... more than 20 days ago, the remnants of the Chu army of Xiangzhuang's son came out of the Dabie Mountains, and even pretended to be the Han army all the way north, and then took advantage of the false attack to occupy Aocang?" Liu Bang also asked. Finally came to his senses, his complexion changed drastically, "But didn't you say that the remnants of Xiang Zhuang's son's Chu army have already collapsed in the mountains?"

"It's right, it's all right, Xiangzhuang should be the one who swept Liangdi!" Chen Ping said, "Although I don't know how the remnants of the Chu army came out of the mountains, but not long ago, they were in the middle of the mountain. It must be, and only the remnants of Xiang Zhuang who stirred up the situation in Liangdi, only Wei Liao, and others will definitely not be able to create such a big momentum!"

"But..." Liu Bang still didn't believe it, "Where do the remnants of the Chu army in Xiangzhuang get thousands of people?"

"Your Majesty, this is just a bluff. Even if there are only 2000 people, as long as the marching distance is widened, it will give people the illusion of tens of thousands of troops!" After saying this, Chen Ping said to Zhang Liang, "Wei Liao , it must be Wei Liao!"

"It must be him." Zhang Liang said awe-inspiringly, "This person really lives up to his reputation, he is extremely sophisticated in his moves!"

Zhang Liang still clearly remembers that after he lost in the sixth game, Fan Zeng once told him that Wei Liao's chess strength is especially superior to his, Fan Zeng's!
Only Wei Liao could put such great pressure on Zhang Liang!

Suddenly, a bright light flashed through Zhang Liang's mind, and he suddenly knew what Wei Liao was going to do. After Wei Liao disturbed the pool of water, he actually wanted to break the "general trend" of King Han sweeping the world in one fell swoop!Just like the big chess game against Fan Zeng, he worked hard to finish the game, but Fan Zeng fell down a few times, and he lost everything in an instant.

"Well, even if it's Xiang Zhuang'er and Wei Liao, where are they now?" Liu Bang asked again.

"My lord, I know where Xiang Zhuang has gone." Zhang Liang took a deep breath and said in an extremely solemn tone, "Xiang Zhuang has already gone to Qidi!"

"Qi Di?!" Chen Ping gasped when he heard the words.

Chen Ping's wisdom was hardly inferior to Zhang Liang's, and he was even more vicious than Zhang Liang. Zhang Liang only mentioned it all, and Chen Ping guessed Xiang Zhuang's intentions.Is this Xiang Zhuang arrogant and ignorant, or is his heart stronger than iron?With just a few thousand remnants, do you want to reverse the general trend of the world?

"Qi Di?" Liu Bang was confused when he heard it, "Why did the Chu army go to Qi Di again?"

"Your Majesty, Xiangzhuang's plan is not small, and Wei Liao's tricks are even more sophisticated!" Zhang Liang sighed, "The Chu army first escaped from the Dabie Mountains with a strange plan, then rushed thousands of miles to attack Aocang, and then swept Liangdi. It was to force the king of Liang to return to the army, and then, while the king and other princes were pacifying the land of Liang, the Chu army rushed thousands of miles to attack the land of Qi, intending to force the king of Qi to return to the army!"

"How is this possible?" Liu Bang lost his voice, "Xiang Zhuang's son has only a few thousand disabled soldiers, how can it be possible?"

Chen Pingdao: "Your Majesty, there are only a few thousand remnants in Xiangzhuang, why don't they turn Liang land upside down?"

"Then, what should we do now?" Liu Bang gasped in horror. If Han Xin were to return to Qi with an army of 30, the trouble would be big. Let alone whether Han Xin himself would have a different heart, the key Without the support of Han Xin, Liu Bang's binding force on the princes and kings such as Peng Yue and Yingbu will be greatly reduced immediately.

Zhang Liangdao: "Your Majesty, there are two most important things now. First, send out a large number of scouts to seal up all news between Qidi and Liangdi, so that King Qi must not know about Qidi's affairs; The general led his elite troops across Hebei and rushed to help Handan, and I dare to say that the next target of the Chu army is the land of Zhao!"

Liu Bang nodded, and when he was about to call Xia Houying into the tent, Xia Houying had already stepped inside, bowing his hands and saying, "Your Majesty, the King of Qi has something important to report!"

"It's broken!" Chen Ping was shocked when he heard the words, "An accident has happened in Qidi, and Han Xin has got the news!"

"Oh, the chess is wrong, the chess is wrong!" Zhang Liang also looked up to the sky and lamented, "It's still half a step too late!"

Liu Bang's complexion also changed drastically, and he lay down on the soft couch, then pulled up the white tiger skin cloak to cover his face, and said repeatedly: "No, no, just say Gu is sick, and no one will see..."
