The grass grows and the warbler flies, and it is the season of spring in the willows. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

After nearly a year of campaigning, the scarred Xiang family army finally returned to the hinterland of Kyushu that they were familiar with.

At the time of the expedition, Xiang's army was 15,000 people. That's a small number, right? Compared with the two million male soldiers of the Great Qin Dynasty, compared to the 500,000 border soldiers of the Meng family, and even compared to the rebel army of Daze Township, it is far behind. Although he is a good soldier, this soldier is not so good that he can ignore the number of people!

Although in the state of Chu...... Strictly speaking, it is a heroic party in the alliance of the Chu State, but how can it be compared with the position that the entire Chu State was in control before? How high did they start from before? The entire Chu State was created by them! Bear heart? King Chu Huai? What's that! It's just a puppet they put up! Other forces, large and small, are not only not supported by them, but are just a dog they raise!

But now, Xiang Liang of the Xiang family is dead, and Xiang Yu's reputation is far from enough! The accumulation of this force is also like sailing against the current, and if you don't advance, you will retreat! As soon as you show a little tiredness, all the people who were crawling at your feet before will swarm up and pull you off the altar!

Coupled with Xiong Xin's knife, Song Yi's secret calculations, and the inaction of many forces, the situation of the Xiang family is becoming more and more difficult! The drop from the altar is the most unbearable.

That's why Xiang Jiajun was so embarrassed before, the crusade to the east and the west has always been a loner, although there is an element of secrecy, but why is it not the result of being in an embarrassing situation in the Chu State and being ostracized?

On the grassland, fifteen thousand people can't hold down the field no matter what, but what is Xiang Yu best at? Fight for war! It's not just food, grass and ordnance that raise war, but also people! On the grassland, many times Xiang Yu is driving the grassland herdsmen to the front, although they are all old, weak, sick and disabled, although they are cannon fodder, but among the tens of thousands of cannon fodder, there will always be two people who can be used. The grassland was subdued and controlled by Xiang Yu, so is it necessary for the Mengjia army to garrison the border pass? The Mengjia army lacks money, food, and clothing, and everything is lacking in a war, but once it doesn't fight, there will be too many people in that deformed structure that is only born for war!

That's right, it's just that it's over, and the extra means that you can't afford it! The reality is so cruel! Shangjun is located in the bitter cold land of the border, originally the product is not abundant, now it is the Xiaoice River period, the weather is cold, the cultivation technology of this era is far from being developed, and there are no high-yield crops such as Champa rice, with a small Shangjun, how can it afford these 500,000 soldiers? To put it bluntly, even if there are people killed on the battlefield, there are fewer people who consume food! Didn't you see that the Meng Jiajun had become so miserable? Even Meng Luo himself can't eat a bite of meat anymore!

Therefore, combining the elite soldiers on the grassland, plus the retired army of the Mengjia army, they expanded the Xiang family army.

The expansion is not much, only 30,000 people.

Xiang Yu has a spiritual cleanliness habit, he has always followed the policy of elite soldiers, he is not the king of soldiers, he can't even look at it! In this era when the army base is still being struggling, this insistence is undoubtedly a bit stupid, well, at least it looks a little stupid.

Therefore, all the senior generals in Xiang Yu's army, including Xiang Zhuang, disagreed. But Xiang Yu's temper will be soft? How can it be?

So after losing his temper one day, Xiang Yu jumped straight into the purple smoke. Do? Find comfort. Ask for a tiger to touch, ask for a hug!

A man has grievances, grievances, and dissatisfaction outside, and when he comes home, a woman is his warmest harbor and his last place of peace.

But this comfort is not necessarily the joy of fish and water, and the purple smoke is not necessarily the body. After all, this kind of pleasure is often just a kind of venting, to put it mildly, a woman *** can do it! But after putting on the pants, nothing has been solved, what should be annoyed is still annoying, what should be annoyed is annoying, and to put it mildly, it has no effect except to cool it.

And such comfort, not only is it not strong, but it can also be easily replaced by other women. People are old and yellow, and this so-called grace is a mirror, after all, how long can people get good? Even if you can be beautiful for a long time, there is a saying that the red face is not old and the grace is broken first. And no matter how good the world's face is, there is no guarantee that there will not be a more beautiful woman! Even if your appearance is unparalleled in the world, only in the world, but men are creatures who like the new and hate the old, and if you want to change your taste that day, it will be a tragedy for women!

So at this time, the mind and words are more important than this "action".

The mind can help men solve problems, give advice, and talk to him even if it is not good, and relieve the boredom in his heart. This is why the beauty that men want the most should add the word "confidant" after the red face, why the most respected way for the literati to get along with husband and wife is to read with red sleeves and fragrance at night, and why they all want to have a flower of interpretation.

And at this time, what is needed is the art of speech.

Fortunately, Ziyan has both of these points.

Fortunately, this time, Xiang Yu's adherence to Xiang Yu's policy, Ziyan also supported it.

Isn't it just a crack soldier policy? Why oppose? If it weren't for this, where would Xiang Yu have the confidence to cross Jiangdong with eight thousand disciples? It is for this reason that there is a myth that 30,000 iron horsemen broke through 560,000 troops in the later legend, and the princes who were killed obeyed did not dare to obey! There is actually nothing wrong with thinking like this, after all, the more resources are tilted to cultivate stronger personal abilities, so that two fewer people can die!

However, it is not a good thing to work with subordinates like this, not to mention giving people the impression of being stubborn and self-serving, and it also hurts the feelings of subordinates! They are all Xiang Yu's loyal team, but they can't break their hearts!

So Ziyan gave Xiang Yu an idea. Xiang Yu's real pro-army is still selected according to such standards, and the treatment is raised by a grade, but at the same time, recruiting another army according to the original standard, of course, compared with the general army of this era, it is of course an elite soldier, but compared to the pro-army of the Xiang family, it is not enough. This army can be used as a reserve for the Xiang family's army, providing a steady stream of new blood for the Xiang family's army, and it can also deal with some things that the Xiang family's army lacks skills, after all, such a strong army can't do some cannon fodder tasks, isn't it?

And this army stayed on the grassland to experience. To train the new army, it is always necessary for veterans to press the field, so Xiang Yu left half of the Xiang family army, led by Xiang Zhuang, on the one hand, watching the steppe wolf, and on the other hand, communicating with Meng Luo.

So the Xiang family army that returned to his hometown was still 15,000 people.

It's just that half of it is new faces.
