Overlord of the late Qin Dynasty

Chapter 236 Anti-Qin Alliance ([-])

The 45 Chu army outside the city has gathered all the soldiers and horses in the entire Chu country that can fight the Qin army.

"Today, our Chu army is all assembled in Suiyang, and we want to fight the Qin army for life and death! One battle will decide the world!" Seeing that everyone was seated, Xiang Yu got up and said with pride.

"May the world be settled with the lord!" Long Qie and Fan Zeng stood up immediately, clasping their hands together.

"Wish to fight with the lord and decide the world!"

Xiang Yu saw that the soldiers under his command were motivated, and asked Wei Bo, who was standing beside him, "Has the intelligence department got any news about the Qin army?"

"General Zhang Han of the Qin Dynasty has already sent a letter to the Qin general Wang Li in the north of the river. He asked Wang Li to immediately attack the opposing Zhao army without delay! Tao She and Yao Yao, who led 20 troops from Guanzhong, The two generals have already marched to Yangwu and other places, step by step to Daliang, the capital of the state of Wei." Wei Bo cupped his hands and reported to Xiang Yu.

"In addition, Liu Ji, who is entrenched in the Shanfu area, has already sent [-] troops to Chenliu to march, and seems to want to join forces with Zhou Shi and others. And Ji County has also been taken by him, and now his garrison and Waihuang are attacking Waihuang. Yellow City."

"How many troops are there in Waihuang City?" Xiang Yu asked casually after hearing Liu Ji's news.

"There are [-] Qin soldiers in Waihuang, and the guard is Cheng Dan, the younger brother of Cheng Chun, who joined the army under Zhang Han's command." Before Wei Bo could answer, Long Qie spoke out first.

"Cheng Dan? But the one who was a partner with Sima Ren, Zhang Ping, and Zhang Yu when they were young?" Xiang Yu asked when he heard the name Cheng Dan.

When everyone was at a loss, Wei Bo unhurriedly cupped his hands and replied: "Exactly!"

"Waihuang will definitely be captured by Liu Ji!" After receiving Wei Bo's answer, Xiang Yu said very firmly.

"Why is the lord so sure?" What Xiang Yu said made all the civil and military people in the hall very puzzled. Seeing that no one dared to speak out, Wu Rui stood up and asked, clapping his hands.

"Cheng Dan met Gu in Xianyang. At that time, I knew that he was a man of courage and intrepidity. Although his father Cheng Pan was under the command of Wang Jian, the late Marquis of Wucheng of Qin State. General, but he only inherited his father's courage but not his father's prudence. Therefore, I believe that Liu Ji will return to take Wai Huang without losing too many troops!" Xiang Yu asked Wu Rui when he saw it. , then answered with a smile.

"Liu Ji has always had a rift with our army. If he takes Waihuang, it will definitely threaten our army's food and morals! My lord, I have to guard against it!" After Wu Rui folded his hands and retreated to his seat, Zhao Sao stood up and cupped his hands.

"What Dr. Zhao said is not unreasonable! My lord, I think it's better to be careful!" After Zhao Sao finished speaking, Wang Ling, who was temporarily appointed as Suiyang Commander, also got up and said.

"Suiyang Ling and Dr. Zhao, you two don't have to worry too much! Even if the food and grass of my army pass by from outside, Liu Ji will not dare to take my food and grass!" Ying Bu was very worried when he saw the two civil servants. An Wei, immediately got up and said after bowing to the two of them. "Otherwise, hundreds of thousands of soldiers of our Chu army will let him die without a place to bury him!"

"Although General Zuo's words are a bit vulgar, they are very reasonable!" Seeing that Wang Ling and Zhao Sao were still very worried, Fan Zeng said. "Besides, if Liu Ji becomes greedy, there are still many insightful people around him, and they will definitely not sit idly by! With Liu Ji's current reputation, if he dares to take away our Chu army's food and grass, then the world will be destroyed. Its place of standing!"

Fan Zengshen is the head of the counselors of the entire Xiang Yu Group, and his words are more effective than Yingbo.I saw that the worries on the corners of Wang Ling and Zhao Sao's brows were a little less, but they hadn't dissipated yet.

Seeing their expressions, Xiang Bo and Zhang Liang looked at each other in the same way.Then Uncle Xiang stood up and said, "My lord, Suiyang Ling and Dr. Zhao's worries are not unreasonable. Please, my lord, make some preparations for the safety of food and roads!"

"That's good! I will take Xiangyi and Yongqiu, and send a general to lead [-] troops to garrison Yongqiu; how about intimidating General Liu Ji who stayed in Waihuang?" Seeing that Xiang Bo was in Hexiu, Xiang Yu went out soundtrack.

"My lord is wise!" Xiang Bo immediately praised with his hands clasped.

Seeing that Xiang Yu had made a compromise, Wang Ling and Zhao Sao bowed their hands and returned to their seats.

"Ji Xin and Gongwei led [-] troops to station in Suiyang to guard the granary for the army. Cao Shen led Ding Fu and Zhu Jishi to command [-] troops to capture Xiangyi and Yongqiu counties and stationed in Yongqiu to deter Liu Ji. !" Xiang Yu began to issue orders after Wang Ling and Zhao Sao sat down.

"Here!" Ji Xin, Gongwei, Cao Can, Ding Fu, and Zhujishi stood up and left their seats at the same time, and handed over their hands to accept orders.

"Long Qie cited Pu Wu, Lu Ma Tong, Xiang Han, Xiang Sheng, and Xue Ou with [-] troops as the vanguard, and immediately rushed to Chenliu to stand in front of the army; Shang Shu Kuai Che and Shi Lang accompanied the army to serve as military counselors! "Xiang Yu continued to order.

"Here!" Long Qi led a group of generals and civil servants to stand up and take orders.

Seeing that Xiang Yu had hand-picked the dragon as the vanguard, Yingbu's thoughts of fighting for it also died down.After all, Xiang Yu's subordinate Longqi is the safest among the generals.

"Li Qi is the rear army, and the rest of the generals will go north with the Chinese army!" Then Xiang Yu gave the final order.

"Here!" A group of civil and military soldiers stood up and took orders.

………………

Long Qie led a [-] vanguard army and marched towards Chenliu. At this time, Xiang Yu, Fan Zeng, Zhang Liang and others were discussing how to quickly defeat the Qin army in the prefect's mansion.

"Chenliu is located on a plain, so it's not difficult to attack! The difficulty is how to defeat the Qin army without compromising its own strength! What's your plan?" Xiang Yu looked at Fan Zeng, Zhang Liang and the others, a little troubled Said.

Xiang Yu is still full of confidence in his subordinates. He firmly believes that with 40 troops under his command, he can fight twice as many Qin troops as himself.But what he is worried about is that after all, the Qin army is equal in number to him. If he tries his best, what will he use to conquer the world in the future.

"My lord is not unreasonable to be worried! After all, the Qin army is as strong as I am. If we launch a ruthless attack, our army will definitely suffer a lot of losses." Zhang Liang and Fan Zeng were both thinking about what strategies could be used, and at this time Kuai Che took the lead out loud. "I thought, if we don't spread our army, we will enter Wuguan from Nanyang to attack Guanzhong. This will make Zhang Han considerate and force him to divide his troops to Nanyang. You can also set up an ambush on the way, and the Qin army will be caught off guard!"

"Although what Dr. Zhang said is reasonable! However, how can we set up an ambush in the plains to the west of Chenliu? Moreover, if Zhang Han, as a general of the Qin army, knows that the lord is leading the army here, how dare he divide his troops to rescue Wuguan? Therefore, I think This plan is wrong!" Zhang Liang took the initiative to refute after Zhang Cang finished speaking.

"What's the best way to present that sacrificial wine to the lord?" Seeing Zhang Liang's rebuttal, Zhang Cang asked calmly without getting angry.

After Zhang Cang finished speaking, everyone looked at Zhang Liang.Only Fan Zeng didn't read it, because Fan Zeng knew that Zhang Liang was no less scheming than him, and even surpassed him in some aspects.
