Huang Hu hastily knelt down and pleaded guilty.

"Get up!"

"Yes!"

"The Xiang family is very powerful, and they gave me their full support when I ascended the throne. Among Shouchun, there are many people who are dissatisfied with the widow. Among the three Zhaoqujing clans, there is no shortage of them. No matter how proud Xiang Yan is, the widow will use him."

"Then the king wants to promise Xiang Yan?"

"No! The widow wants to see again, whether Xiang Yan really has another heart. Xiang Yan is defeated and will return to Shouchun. If I really let the widow find out that he has a second heart, I will not be able to stay no matter how much I want to stay. him."

"Then Mr. Changping?"

"A lost dog, what is there to worry about!" Li Chu smiled, stood up, and loosened his muscles and bones.Huanghu knew that Negative Chu was going back to the harem, where his most beloved concubine was going to bed.

……

"Great rivers and mountains, what will happen to the Qin army when they pass by in the future?"

Standing on the top of the mountain, Mr. Changping looked at the Chu land below, and sighed helplessly.

"Mr. Changping!" A person stood behind him, not Tian Guang, but the Zhu family of Shennongtang.He cupped his fists and saluted.

"How's the negative cud?"

"The King of Chu is still hesitating, and has no intention of killing you."

"That's naturally the best. Since the old man had the ability to secretly help him ascend to the throne of King Chu, he also has the ability to pull him down." Changping Jun smiled darkly, revealing an unknown side.Facing such Lord Changping, the Zhu family stood in horror, but they dared not say a word.

Lord Changping looked at the intoxicating beauty of fertile land in the distance, but his heart was hard to calm down, and he said bitterly: "Ying Ziyi, even if the Qin Kingdom wins the world, I will not allow you to ascend to the supreme position."

Chapter 82 Long Guang

"I smile smugly, I smile smugly, I smile to see that I am not old in the world of mortals..."

Among the lush and scattered forests, Ying Ziyi's singing, although not unpleasant, was not very pleasant.

Ying Ziyi rode the little pony that he left behind. He was riding a red sweat horse from the Western Regions. It had a thin head and a high neck, slender limbs, and thin skin.

Behind him, horseshoes sounded, and three thousand knights followed behind him.Wang Jian's [-] troops turned around and took command of Nanyang, and the situation stabilized for a while.The bandits have gathered their traces, and the people's hearts are stable.Grain, equipment, cloth, medicinal materials and other materials are being continuously transported from Guanzhong to Nanyang, maintaining the daily expenses of a large army, repairing cities that have suffered due to wars, comforting homeless refugees, and opening food. Road, to provide military supplies for the defenders of Pingyu.

This place is already the hinterland of Chu State, and it has been a month since Ying Ziyi set off from Pingyu.The land of Chu is vast, with criss-crossing lakes and rivers, and the terrain is flat, which is conducive to the display of the cavalry.Since January, Ying Ziyi has fought with soldiers and horses, avoided the main force of the Chu army, and swept seventeen small cities in a row, and the army was greatly shocked.

One of the big reasons why Ying Ziyi dared to export three thousand people to attack Shouchun was because of his superiority on horseback.

Chu State is a big country, but it also faces a problem, the shortage of horses.This shortcoming was not obvious in the Warring States Period where chariots were kings.

However, the era of chariots will pass, and the era of cavalry will come.

The separatist regimes in the south of the Yangtze River have always faced a great weakness in the face of the nomads in the north, and there are not enough cavalry.The lack of horse breeding land, the southern climate, and the terrain make the number and quality of horses in the south inferior to those in the north.

Not having enough cavalry means that no matter how much advantage they gain on the battlefield, they cannot turn this advantage into military achievements that can reverse the difference in strength between the two sides.

People can fight if they can beat them, and they can leave if they can't. There is nothing they can do here.In any case, you will fall into the dilemma of having more than enough rules and not enough offense.

The economic, military and cultural center of Chu State is located in the elite land between the Jianghuai River and the Huaihe River, where the water network is densely covered and the land is fertile.However, the four kingdoms of Zhao, Yan, Han, and Wei have all been conquered by the Qin State. As for war horses, the strategic material of the cold weapon era, Qin State has tightened its pockets both commercially and militarily. It is strictly forbidden for war horses and other materials to flow into Chu. There is no mercy for ransacking the family and exterminating the clan.

From the comparison of this material, we can see the gap in national power between Chu and Qin.

In other words, this is an asymmetric war of attrition.As time goes by, this disadvantage of Chu State will gradually show itself.Confronting Qin, there is only one dead end.Many high-ranking officials in the state of Chu have already realized this problem, and Xiang Yan is one of them.Therefore, he did not hesitate to enter the tiger's den and went to Xianyang to persuade Lord Changping to return to Chu.The purpose is to make a quick decision before this worst situation arises.

However, what Xiang Yan didn't expect was that when the Changping Lord incident happened, Qin State calmed down the situation in Nanyang with only a small price.Although Nanyang is in chaos right now, with General Wang Jian in charge, it will return to the previous level soon.

Is it true that the sky is going to die?

In the Shouchun Palace, standing on the court hall with Lord Changping and other courtiers, Xiang Yan sighed inwardly.He pleaded guilty for the defeat of Pingyu City, and only brought a few horses back to Shouchun.Instead of punishing him, Xiang Chu made him an official and a noble.

On the throne, King Chu was furious.

"Seventeen! Seventeen cities! When the Qin army entered Chu, it was like entering an uninhabited land. Within a month, they conquered seventeen cities. Our army of tens of thousands in Chu has nothing to do with a single child! It really makes no sense!"

"I am guilty!"

Your Highness, all the courtiers knelt down to plead guilty, including Lord Changping and Xiang Yan.

"Hmph!" Lu Chu looked at the servants below and snorted softly, "Get up!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

At this time, Xiang Yan saw Mr. Changping coming out.Mr. Changping returned to Shouchun with him.King Chu of Chu did not treat his close relatives who had been in Qin State coldly for most of his life, but instead made him king.

Mr. Changping!It's just that this is now the title of Chu State.

Lord Changping came out, he was very clear about the king's sarcasm, but he didn't make a fuss. "Your Majesty, the strength of the Qin army's cavalry army is mediocre. The only ones who can deal with the cavalry army are the cavalry army."

Mr. Changping's meaning is very clear. With the mobility of the Chu State's infantry and infantry, it is impossible to catch up with them. Only by dispatching the Tenglong Army can they be sure.

King Chu of Chu looked at the white-haired Lord Changping with sunken cheeks, and he didn't speak, just thinking.Negative Chu's age is similar to Lord Changping's, but he is well maintained.After several years of living in the royal palace, the burden is fat and fat, with a flushed face.

The court fell into silence for a while, and everyone was quietly waiting for King Chu's decision.

"Long Guang."

To everyone's surprise, what the king of Chu called was not the name of Lord Wu'an Xiang Yan, but the name of a general standing in the middle and rear of the court queue.

"The end is here!"

Long Guang was a middle-aged general with a short beard and broad face. Hearing King Chu's inquiry, he walked out of the train and bowed down.
