Overlord of the late Qin Dynasty

Chapter 184 Zhou Wen died in battle ([-])

Zhao Gao of Xianyang was relieved when he heard the news of Li You's death in battle.He was very afraid that Li You would live, because Wang Li, the leader of the northern army, was Li You's sworn brother.Although Xiang Yu in Kuaiji County had already rebelled against Qin, Zhao Gao would not let Hu Hai know the news in order to cover up his fault.

Wu County, as the current center of Xiang Yu's family, is the place where all government orders from the four counties of Donghai, Jiujiang, Kuaiji, and Zhang were issued.

Xiang Yu and most of the civil and military forces are in Wu County, and his 20 army and 7 troops are in Wu County to repair and wait for the battle.

After the army was raised, the magistrate of Dongyang County recommended to Xiang Yu the talents in the county, and one of them was Chen Ying.This person is honest and polite, and since he was transferred to Wu County as the county magistrate, Xiang Yu's civil and military people admire him deeply.

When Chen Sheng's envoy arrived in Wu County, Xiang Liang, Xiang Yu and others discussed receiving the so-called Chen Wang envoy before he arrived.

Suihe received Chen Sheng's envoy in front of the city gate, and brought Chen Sheng's envoy to the current Wu Jun Mansion under Xiang Yu's intentional display of military power.

Chen Sheng's envoy expressed his intention after meeting Xiang Yu with a salute.

Along the way, envoy Chen Sheng felt unprecedented stability and prosperity through the territory controlled by Xiang Yu.

In the counties and counties controlled by Xiang Yu, there is no turmoil like Chen Sheng and other places.All the people are living a peaceful life, as if what happened in other places has nothing to do with them.Furthermore, the envoy met many teams patrolled by Xiang Yujun along the way.Seeing that they are well-equipped and the sergeants are all strong and brave, I am a little scared.

From the arrogance at the beginning, to the groveling now.The performance of the envoys sent by Chen Sheng was all known to Xiang Yu, which made all the civil and military under Xiang Yu's command chuckle.

"King Chen is the first justice! Since King Chen rewarded me as a general of the Shangzhu Kingdom, I will accept it!" Xiang Yu replied as soon as he opened his mouth.

This is also the result of discussions with Fan Zeng, Kuai Che, An Qisheng, Xiang Liang and others, and the current trend of the world has not yet been established.Except for one state of Zhang Chu, no one restored the country, and Xiang Yu did not dare to re-establish a country rashly.

"The general understands righteousness so well! I believe that the king will appreciate it very much, and will give the general more rewards in the future!" Hearing what Xiang Yu said, the envoy felt at ease.

After seeing off the envoys, Xiang Yu began to discuss with the civil and military forces whether to attack west or north first.

Photographed by Xiang Yu's power, Minzhong County in the south was the first to surrender.In Lujiang County, Wu Rui, Mei Yu, Wu Zhu, and Zou Yao also rebelled against Qin, gathering tens of thousands of people in Panyang.Xiang Yu once sent someone to persuade him to surrender, but Wu Rui ignored it.This made Xiang Yu a little annoyed. After all, he had 20 elite soldiers, which was the second largest anti-Qin force after Chen Sheng.

"It's not the time to attack the north! Go west and attack Hengshan County and Lujiang County. Consolidate our Xiang family's power in the south of the Yangtze River, and deter Chen Sheng who wants to enter Jiujiang!" Fan Zeng suggested.

Xiang Liang and the others were lost in thought, but Xiang Yu was a little moved.

Seeing that no one answered, Xiang Yu said: "I agree with what the military adviser said, why not attack Lujiang! After all, although it is a desolate place, it is rich in brave men! Taking this place will do more good than harm to the future expansion of the army northward. "

"Yu'er, have you thought about it?" Xiang Liang asked directly after hearing what Xiang Yu said.

Today's Xiang Liang has no intention of striving for a leadership position. What he wants most now is to see his nephew lead the family to regain their former glory.It would be best if my eldest nephew could take over the world and take the position of the lord of the world.

Xiang Yu nodded and said nothing.But Xiang Liang knew that Xiang Yu had made up his mind, so he said, "I agree to attack Lujiang!"

The two people who could change Xiang Yu's decision both proposed to go west, and the rest of the civil and military all expressed their consent to go west.

Soon, Xiang Yu decided to personally lead [-] troops to attack Lujiang.Xiang Liang, An Qisheng and others were left behind to be responsible for the operation of Wu County and the counties, and he led Fan Zeng, Kuai Chai, Fu Kuan, Fan Kuai, Ji Bu and others westward.

business south.

Zhang Chujun failed to attack the Qin army's camp again, and was retreating to his own position to prepare for the next attack.

In the Qin army's camp, Su Jiao said to Li Ye who was coming down from the wall in depression, "The general has arrived! It's less than twenty miles away from Shangnan!"

At this time, Zhang Chu's army formed a large formation.Zhou Wen also received news that a large number of Qin troops were coming here. First, he was glad that his nephew did not lead troops to detour and attack.But I started to worry, thinking about taking the advantage of the number of people to win Shangnan and open the road to Xianyang.Now it was delayed again because of the unknown number of newly arrived Qin troops, which made Zhou Wen even more impatient and restless.

Soon, the scouts returned to report to Zhou Wen that at least 30 people from the Qin army were coming here.Zhou Wen was taken aback when he heard this, and quickly ordered to withdraw his troops back to the camp.

Zhang Han arrived in Shangnan with Dong Yi, Sima Xin and others and an army of more than [-].After accepting the troops in Su Jiao's hands, he summoned all the generals to take the tent and listen to the orders.

"Where is Li Ye, Lieutenant of Wuguan?" Sitting on the commander-in-chief, Zhang Han shouted calmly thinking of the generals sitting next to him.

"The last general is here!" Hearing Zhang Han's tone, Li Ye got up and replied with some uneasiness.

"Who told you to evacuate Wuguan?" Seeing Li Ye standing up, Zhang Han asked calmly.

"No one!" Li Ye replied boldly, and the uneasiness in his voice became more and more intense.

"No one?!! You dared to leave your post without authorization, and you exposed the 800 million Qin people behind you to the vanguard of the rebellious army. You are worthy of your family's expectations, worthy of the trust of the people in Guizhou, worthy of His Majesty's appointment?" Hearing Li Ye's answer, Zhang Han asked angrily.

Zhang Han's stern questioning made Li Ye feel more guilty, and lowered his head even more.

At this time, Su Jiao stood up and cupped his hands, saying, "General! Now is the time to employ people, why not leave Li Ye's body behind and let him serve the emperor with his death?"

Zhang Han had already guessed that Su Jiao would get up to save Li Ye, and he didn't want to deal with a general who was worthy of a great position in this situation of lack of generals.

Walking along the steps of Sujiao, Zhang Han said: "As General Su said, I will save your life temporarily! But you must use your achievements to wash away your shame, Li Ye! Do you understand?"

"The final general will definitely fight for Daqin and to wash away his shame!" Li Ye breathed a sigh of relief, cupping his hands and saying.

"The emperor and the prime minister have dispatched the Northern Legion to go south. As long as we take back Wuguan, we can go out and directly attack Chen Sheng and other rebels! In this way, we will cooperate with the Northern Legion going south to pacify the world again! At that time, everyone here will definitely leave a note Qingshi, high-ranking officials and rich salary." Zhang Han encouraged after Li Ye sat down again.
