Competing

Chapter 582 Persistence and Helplessness

Linzi, Qi Palace.

Kuai Che walked very fast, and there was indeed an extremely important matter today, which made Mr. Kuai, who has always been calm, a little uneasy.After the guards saw it, they were still a little strange, and they all looked at Prime Minister Kuai in surprise.

"King Qi, Liu Bang has already made a move." Kuai Che entered the main hall, and after seeing King Han Xin of Qi, he didn't even have time to greet him, so he spoke, looking very anxious.

Han Xin was also slightly surprised, and said: "Liu Bang has already made a move, it seems that we are a little redundant." It seems to be teasing, and it also expresses Han Xin's mentality.

Han Xin knew very well, and it was completely understandable, how urgent Liu Bang wanted to destroy Xiang Yu.However, judging from Liu Bang and his own ability, it is not known whether he can succeed. Han Xin does not have much hope for him. He does not think that Liu Bang alone has the strength to completely defeat Xiang Yu.

"Where, what Liu Bang is looking forward to most now is you, King Qi." Kuai Che told the truth, with a bit of flattery in his words.But in fact, it is true. More than half of Liu Bang's country is now brought down by Han Xin.Without Han Xin, Liu Bang would not be Xiang Yu's opponent at all.In fact, Liu Bang mainly relied on Han Xin in this battle, otherwise he would not have promised to seal all the coastal lands to Han Xin.

"Okay, then let him wait for a while, I believe that Liu Bang will deal with Xiang Yu for a while, and it will be fine." Han Xin thought for a while and said with a smile.

"King Qi, what do you mean? We won't send troops for now, right?" Kuai Che asked speculatively.

Han Xin said with a sneer, "Well, yes, let's hold back for now and see how much Liu Bang's level has improved in the past few years." Han Xin's eyes were a little more stern and mocking, of course, all of this is based on self-confidence superior.

"Also, pay attention to Peng Yue and Yin Xu's side. I'm afraid they are restless. Especially Jiangdong, if there is any problem there, investigate it in time. If Yin Xu is involved, the matter will be much more complicated, and we need to be cautious Do things. I don't want to be used by Liu Bang because of this..." Han Xin thought of this and added in time.

"Yes!" Kuai Che naturally knew clearly what Liu Bang's purpose was in wanting to recruit Han Xin into his gang, so he naturally understood clearly in his heart.

In Daliang City, Peng Yue was also paying close attention to this matter.These things are related to one's own life and personal interests, and no prince will take it lightly.

When Xiang Yu's army withdrew from his door, Liang Guo's army had already made preparations. If Xiang Yu wanted to deal with him, Peng Yue would definitely fight back and go all out.

However, if General Chu did not launch an attack directly, Liang Guo would stand still.Peng Yue knew very well that if Xiang Yu and Liu Bang really reached an alliance, they would definitely deal with him, a duplicitous little man.

But in fact, it was Liu Bang's deception against Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, was deceived, and there was no so-called alliance at all.But even in this situation, if Xiang Yu was angry and wanted to kill Daliang and Waihuang directly, it would be perfectly fine.

Therefore, during the period when the Chu army withdrew, it was frightening for Peng Yuelai.Fortunately, with good luck, when Xiang Yu hadn't done anything to him, since Xiang Yu didn't make any moves, Peng Yue himself wouldn't send troops so foolishly.In fact, Xiang Yu was attacked by Liu Bang first, which was exactly what he wanted.

At the beginning, Peng Yue was still worried that Xiang Yu would think that he did it himself, so he would suspect himself.

However, the news quickly spread that it was Fan Kuai and Zhou Bo under the Han King Liu Bang who attacked the camp of the Chu army at night, so there was no misunderstanding.

"Sir, what should we do now? Shall we also send troops?" Peng Yue asked Chen Qingshan opposite him.

"Don't worry yet!" Chen Qingshan was a little older, and he was slow in thinking and doing things, and said after a long time: "I think Liu Bang's main force is coming soon, let's see how their battle is going, and then make a decision."

"Okay, let's agree first, and then we will make a decision based on the actual situation." Peng Yue's performance was indifferent. The current affairs are all related to interests, and everyone is cautious and will not act lightly.

..............................................................................

The land of Huainan to the north of the great river, the area close to the coast originally belonged to the Western Chu State, and the area to the west originally belonged to the Jiujiang State.Later, after the Jiujiang Kingdom was destroyed by Long Qie and Xiang Sheng, all of them were included in the territory of the Western Chu Kingdom.

Because Huainan is close to the Yue State on the east of the river, it may be threatened by the Vietnamese army at any time, so the West Chu State has arranged a very strict line of defense here.When Yin Xu occupied the two counties in the east of the Yangtze River, it happened that the army of Western Chu State was deeply trapped in Qi State.Huan Chu, who was stationed in Jiangdong, also withdrew his troops and returned to Jiangbei, and he has been stationed here for defense, just to guard against Yue.

Huan Chu has been on the defensive all these years, and it is precisely because of this that he has not been able to participate in the war between the north and Qi Chu.Firstly, there was no opportunity to make meritorious service, and secondly, Huan Chu was also dissatisfied with the result of the northern battle.Many times he wondered, how did the war in the north go on?How defeat is a common thing, this does not seem to be something that should happen to the extremely powerful Western Chu Kingdom.

To be beaten so helplessly by Han Xin, even Long Qie was beheaded, was simply too humiliating.Huan Chu has been looking forward to a chance to feel proud, at least not such a defense that has been doing nothing.

After several years of aggrieved waiting, Huan Chu finally waited for the opportunity to take the initiative.Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, ordered the Chu army to prepare to cross the river and retake Jiangdong.

Although the dispatch of troops is based on the cooperation with Han, it still makes people feel uncomfortable, but it is finally going to send troops to fight, which is somewhat gratifying.The soldiers of the Chu army in Huainan felt a lot of relief, and their confidence and morale also recovered a lot.

It was quite depressing to be forced to evacuate from Jiangdong.Many soldiers clamored to stay and fight the Vietnamese army to the death.However, Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng issued strict orders, and Huan Chu had no choice but to withdraw his troops back to Jiangbei for the sake of the overall situation.Thinking back to when the troops were withdrawing, it took a lot of talking to convince those young soldiers.

This incident made Huan Chu and all the soldiers of the Chu army stationed in Jiangbei hold a sigh of relief, and they have been looking forward to having the opportunity to avenge their shame and defeat the Vietnamese army.Of course, if there is a chance to take back Jiangdong, that would be the best.

Now the opportunity has finally come, so after Xiang Yu's order was issued, Huan Chu, Zhou Yin and many other Chu troops were excited in the future, gearing up and eager to try, ready to send troops to Jiangdong to fight.

........................................................................

"General Huan Chu, the army is ready." Zhou Yin came to report the latest situation in time.Zhou Yin was Huan Chu's deputy general and the second most important person in the Chu army stationed in Huainan.

"Okay, now that we are ready, let's do it!" Huan Chu seemed to have been waiting for the news, and after hearing the news, he was very excited.

Zhou Yin persuaded: "General Huan, it's better to be cautious about this matter, we'd better not send troops rashly." Zhou Yin believed that the current situation is not conducive to the Chu army's attack, especially the Jiangdong Yue army is also very dreadful .

"Careful? How cautious? Don't you obey the edict of the Overlord?" Huan Chu has always been somewhat dissatisfied with Zhou Yin, and there is also some friction between them.Huan Chu wanted to ask Xiang Yu to transfer Zhou Yin many times, but he never succeeded.In fact, isn't this Xiang Yu's imperial technique?Huan Chu holds the military power in Huainan, if everyone around him obeys orders, can Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng rest assured?It would be best to have Zhou Yin by his side to restrain him.

Zhou Yin explained: "General Huan, that's not what the final general meant. The final general meant that the Yue kings were always scheming. If they were not careful, not only would they not be able to attack, but they would be in danger. This matter is of great importance, so we should be careful. "

"Why are you so careful?" Huan Chu seemed impatient.

"Since we're ready, it's better to wait for the overlord to come before dispatching troops." Zhou Yin expressed his opinion.

Huan Chu said: "Wait for the Overlord? After the Overlord arrives, the Yue Kingdom should have already got the news. After the Yue Kingdom has prepared and defended, wouldn't it be a lost opportunity? Now, taking advantage of the Yue Kingdom's ignorance of the news, and then attacking it by surprise." Unprepared!"

"It's just that the soldiers of the Yue Kingdom have many generals and are powerful, and Jiangdong has a large defense force. It may not be possible to seize the opportunity by rushing troops. It will be more dangerous... Besides, Huainan and Jiangdong are just across the river, and the spies of the Yue Kingdom are everywhere. I'm afraid I've noticed it already."

"What do you mean? Just don't let me send troops?" Huan Chu was already a little angry, obviously very dissatisfied with Zhou Yin's attitude and words.

Zhou Yin said: "The last general doesn't mean that, it's just better to be cautious!"

Speaking of this, Zhou Yin has never made it clear that Huan Chu and others are very excited these days.The so-called arrogant soldiers must be defeated. In many cases, the more they want to do something, they will often be negligent.Huanchu sent troops at this time, eager to make contributions and win, not to mention that the opponent was a powerful figure like Yue Wang Yinxu.Even if it is Yingbu, Zhang Han and other generals, any one of them will be very powerful.

"Don't talk about it, Huainan's military affairs are in the hands of the general, and I will carry out orders..." Huan Chu didn't intend to continue talking with Zhou Yin at all, and acted extremely forcefully.

"General Huan..." When Zhou Yin wanted to say something again, Huan Chu walked away, leaving Zhou Yin full of helplessness and sighs, and at the same time, he couldn't help but feel a kind of worry...
