Qin Emperor Ziying

Chapter 501
In the following days, Han Xin stayed by Ziying's side as a general with five sense organs.

Regarding Ziying's sudden emergence of a righteous brother, the generals gradually turned from being surprised at the beginning to getting used to it.

The main reason here is because of Ziying's supreme prestige in the army. If it were an emperor who was in peace, he would have rashly appointed a soldier as a lieutenant of the guard, and then appointed an unknown young man as the commander of the five sense organs. General Zhonglang, although the emperor can forcibly appoint him with his own status, he can never be as calm as Ziying.

And during this period of time, Ziying was also constantly considering Han Xin, and Ziying would also let Han Xin express his opinions in front of the generals in some war layouts.

Bing Xian is still a Bing Xian, although it is just an opinion on paper, but at least Han Xin has won some recognition from the generals of the Great Qin by virtue of his own strategy, not just because he is the emperor's brother-in-law.

The third emperor is indeed worthy of being the god of war in the Great Qin Dynasty, and any righteous brother who is casually recognized is a talent for managing the world!This is what the generals have been thinking for a while.

And for a while, Chen Ping has gained a great reputation in the army. His job has been changed to the military discipline inspection committee. In the past few months, there has been a lot of rumors about his work, and he has uncovered several lawless generals from the army. , conscientiously fulfilling the duties assigned to him by Ziying, and went further and further on the road of "lonely minister".

Because he knew that the more isolated he was from the generals, the more he was in line with the duties of a lieutenant of the guard. If he was a captain of the guard and called brothers and sisters with the generals, he would not be far from corrupting the law.

……

Compared with the confidence of the Qin side, the life of the coalition forces is even more difficult now.

Now there are more than 50 troops on the coalition side, and almost everyone's face is covered with dishes. Although there are still two meals a day, the meals for each meal have been changed to soup, and there is nothing in it. Not much food.

The responsible person said that the rats on the Zhangshui side had been eaten by the hungry sergeants and dared not show their heads.

Now there have been examples of sergeants fleeing under the leadership of officers. If the problem of military rations is not resolved, I am afraid that the 50 army will collapse without the Qin army attacking.

In Xiang Yu's tent of the Chinese army, the generals of the coalition army and advisers such as Fan Zeng gathered together to discuss the next step.

However, compared with a few months ago, everyone in the tent has a strong sense of powerlessness on their faces.

Since two months ago, Peng Yue, who was entrenched in Dayozawa, suddenly raised the banner of the Qin Army and sent troops to plunder the grain roads of the coalition forces. Due to his special geographical location, among the five countries, except for Yan, which is located in the north, was not captured. In addition to the scourge, Han, Zhao and Wei suffered a lot except for the four countries.

All the five countries sent troops to stop Peng Yue, but Peng Yue and his [-] troops were like loaches. They shot one shot to change places, and they ran away without any appearance of benevolence and righteousness.

The several countries pursued closely, so they plunged headlong into the densely reeded Onozawa. Before they could find his trace, the news that another road had been robbed came. It turned out that Peng Yuejun had already run from the other side of Onozawa. up.

Onoze, which has a radius of hundreds of miles, cannot be sealed no matter how it is blocked.

As a result, the already stretched front-line military rations became even more scarce.Even if the remaining food and grass in the army are saved by adding wild vegetables, it is only enough for seven days.

Moreover, according to the information that just arrived, a batch of food that Chu and Zhao had managed to cobble together was looted again. Now the grain depots of all countries are clean, and the mice will cry when they go in, and they have no ability to serve the front line. Military rations were provided on a large scale.

Therefore, all the generals in today's military meeting understand that this is probably the last military meeting of the coalition forces. After the military meeting, everyone should go back to their respective homes. dissolve.

Facing this scene, Fan Zeng, the chief adviser of the coalition army, also looked helpless. If the Qin army was just a general leading the army at the front, he would have countless ways to sow discord between him and the central government.

However, today's Qin army is the third emperor Ziying personally driving and conquering, which makes some of Fan Zeng's strategies useless.

Fan Zeng also wanted to follow suit in the past to plunder the Qin army's food roads. However, the Qin army's grain and fodder were transported directly to the front line through the Taihang ancient road after leaving Hangu Pass. The stronghold, whether it is Hangu Pass or the Taihang Ancient Road, cannot be looted.

Hangu Pass can't be defeated if there are fewer people. Unless the Taihang Ancient Road enters through the exit occupied by the Qin army, if 8000 people enter Taihang Mountain, it will be a problem whether they can find a way out, let alone find the location of the Taihang Ancient Road. up.

"General, my country of Yan is small and the people are poor, and now there are many bandits and famines. The king has ordered our army to return quickly, and I hope the general will agree."

Le Meng, the commander-in-chief of the Yan State who was the first to be unable to restrain himself, can be said to be in jeopardy now, because the famine can be said to be raging in the country.

Today's Yan State urgently needs the army to return to stabilize the situation.

With the leader, the commanders of the other countries opened their mouths one after another, with only one purpose, and that is to hope to lead the army back to their own country.

Faced with this scene, even Xiang Yu was powerless to keep him, because he also knew clearly that if he stayed, then what awaited the coalition forces would definitely end in disintegration.

In fact, not only Han Zhao Weiyan, but also the Chu country where he lives is also urging himself to return as soon as possible.

The shortage of military rations is one aspect, and the other aspect is that the situation faced by Chu State is more severe than that of several other countries.

Not only was the military rations plundered by Peng Yue from time to time, but the Qin army in the west of Chu State went out of Nanyang County and continued to attack the west of Chu State.

Not to mention, Dongyue, who was originally staying in the mountains and forests, suddenly claimed to belong to Daqin a few days ago, and then sent troops to the north to attack Kuaiji County.

Today's Chu country is the one with the most serious internal and external troubles. Even if the other countries don't mention this matter, his Chu army will have to leave.

If both Jiangdong and the hinterland of Chu were occupied by the Qin army, his army would really be alone.

"Since your heart is attached to your home country, then my country of Chu is not easy to be difficult, but I have a suggestion, half of the food left in the army must be left for my Chu army!" Listening to the commanders of various countries expressing their wishes Regarding the idea of ​​leaving, Fan Zeng expressed Chu's attitude on behalf of Xiang Yu.

After Fan Zeng finished his sentence, the military account started to discuss a lot. Although the generals did not dare to oppose the Chu State openly, but now that the food is in short supply, the Chu State will leave half of the current grain surplus at once. caused dissatisfaction among the nations.
