Chapter 1213: Han Xin vs Zhang Liang

Wang Mang didn't expect that in just one or two months, the forces of the princes of the Six Roads would be completely wiped out, and the South Fourth Road and the Jizhou Two, the world was really getting more and more dangerous.

The relationship between the Chen and Zhang families in Jizhou and Wang Mang is not bad, but the two families were destroyed, Wang Mang not only did not have any sadness but was also a little happy, because only if Chen Youliang died, he could have hope of subduing Chen Qingzhi and Chen Baxian.

However, now Wang Mang is also alone, so it is naturally impossible to subdue Chen Qingzhi and Chen Ba, he still needs to improve and show his ability in order to make Er Chen convince him.

"Damn Xiao Yan, the lord is not kind to him, but he betrayed the lord, if he doesn't kill this person to pay tribute to the lord, I, Chen Ba, will never give up."

Chen Baxian scolded angrily, and although Chen Qingzhi was not as angry as him, he was also angry.

Seeing this, Wang Mang stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Two brothers, the matter of revenge is not in a hurry, we have to figure it out slowly." ”

Chen Baxian and Chen Qingzhi glanced at each other, and Chen Qingzhi asked, "Sir, do you have a plan to help me kill Xiao Yan, that dog thief?" ”

Wang Mang nodded lightly and said unhurriedly: "Xiao Yan has already taken refuge in Yuan Shao, and killing Xiao Yan can't get around Yuan Shao, and to deal with Yuan Shao, you must have a large army."

Now although the Chen and Zhang families have been completely wiped out, there are still many stragglers who were scattered in this battle and have not yet been exterminated.

First of all, we must gather this part of the troops, otherwise they will be exterminated by the three sooner or later. ”

[Ding Dong, Wang Mang's skill 'Clever Tongue' activates ......]

Chen Qingzhi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said happily: "Yes, the total number of soldiers of the Qinghe Army and the Changshan Army is more than 100,000, and even if the Yuan, Han and Zhang families divide all the territory, they will not be able to wipe out all the troops in a short period of time, and these stragglers are our biggest helpers." ”

Wang Mang nodded with a smile and said, "Secondly, we must find a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack as soon as possible, as a temporary base area, and only in this way can we escape the encirclement and suppression of the Yuan, Han and Zhang families."

In the end, it is to wait for the opportunity, now Jizhou is divided into three points, although the three families of Yuan, Han and Zhang are facing each other to check and balance, but sooner or later a big war will break out, and then we will wait for the left and right, and there may not be no chance of revenge. ”

After Chen Qingzhi and Chen Ba glanced at each other, Chen Ba said first: "Qingzhi and I are also high-level in the Qinghe Army, and the scattered stragglers of the Qinghe Army will be won over by the two of us." ”

Wang Mang nodded and said, "Then the stragglers of the Changshan Army will be co-opted by me and Ju Wuba." ”

In this way, Wang Mang and Chen Qingzhi's troops divided into two routes, respectively to win over the stragglers of the Qinghe Army and the Changshan Army.

Chen Qingzhi and Chen Baxian relied on the identity of Chen Youliang's brother, and the targets they recruited all expressed their submission.

Wang Mang relied on his eloquence and pulling Zhang Shicheng's tiger skin to fool all the stragglers of the Changshan Army under his command.

In just half a month, more than 30 remnants of the Chen and Zhang families scattered in Jizhou, with nearly 5,000 troops, were all gathered together by Wang Mang.

Five thousand troops is not a small number, after Yuan Shao learned that there was such a remnant army in the territory, he naturally wanted to annex it all, but he still had time to send troops to encircle and suppress, Wang Mang had already fled into the Taihang Mountains with this army of soldiers and horses.

The Taihang Mountains, which stretch for thousands of miles, can even be hidden by millions of people in the Ming Dynasty, and it is by taking advantage of the Taihang that the Ming Dynasty has persevered until now under the encirclement and suppression of the Han Dynasty.

Wang Mang's thousands of troops hid in Taihang, and he couldn't even make a little wave, and Yuan Shao couldn't even figure out the location, so even if he wanted to crusade, he couldn't start.

After Wang Mang and others hid in Taihang, from time to time under the banner of the Ming Dynasty, they went down the mountain to rob the family and the passing caravans, and they could barely get by.

At the same time, the Ming army and the Korean army confronted each other, and tacitly chose to withdraw and cease fighting.

There is not much difference in the strength of the two armies of Han and Ming, but there is only one famous general named in the Han army, Zhang alone, while there is a large group of Ming troops, and the lineup of generals on both sides is not at the same level.

Therefore, even if Han Xin's command ability is unparalleled in the world, Emperor Ming, with the assistance of a large group of fierce generals and Zhang Liang, is still on a par with Han Xin.

Several battles with Da Ming made Han Xin once again understand the power of Da Ming, especially Zhang Liang, whose thoughts are so deep and his tricks are vicious, even he is difficult to see through.

In this battle, Zhang Liang specially set up a series of plans for Han Xin, if it weren't for the warning of the military advisor, Han Xin would almost have been tricked.

Han Xinzhong also understood that as long as Zhang Liang was there, even if he continued to fight, he would not be able to tell the winner, but would be cheaper than Yuan Shao on the other side, so he privately sent the envoy and made an appointment to withdraw together.

Soon after the withdrawal of the two sides, the Ming Dynasty sent another envoy saying that he would join forces with the Korean army to fight against Yuan Shao.

"Strategist, you said that you joined forces with Daming to fight against Yuan Shao, is it reliable?"

Han Xin frowned and asked, after all, Da Ming had only killed Wang Shichong not long ago, and Han Xin couldn't believe such an ally.

Fu Zhi stroked his tiger and said with a light smile: "Naturally, it is reliable." Now that Yuan Shao is powerful, Han Ming alone is not an opponent, and only by joining forces can he resist Yuan Shao. ”

"But the Ming army has a history of breach of contract after all."

"Although the Ming army violated the alliance with Wang Shichong, you must know that Wang Shichong is a traitor to the Yellow Turban, and the Ming army and the Qin army joined forces to fight against Yuanmeng, and the cooperation was very pleasant soon?"

Fu Zhu smiled and continued: "I know the concerns in the young master's heart, but the situation in Jizhou is completely different from that in the south, our army does not need the Ming army to directly send troops to help, so as long as we are careful to take precautions, the Ming army has no chance to plot against us at all." ”

Han Xin couldn't help but nod when he heard this, and then asked again: "But with such a rebellious cooperation with Daming, it doesn't sound good after all." ”

"Hahaha......"

Fu Zhu couldn't help laughing, and said: "Young master, now is the era of princes, as long as the interests of both parties are the same, what about cooperating with rebellion?"

Now the imperial court is in Luoyang, but didn't Qin Hao unite with the Ming army and fight against Yuanmeng together?

Even Qin Hao doesn't care about this, so why should you care, young master. ”

Han Xin's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said with a smile: "This sentence of the military advisor is just to make Xin's mouth open." Strategist, you're right, as long as the interests of the princes are the same, what about cooperating with the rebels? ”

Soon after, the two armies of Han and Ming formally ceased fighting and withdrew one after another, although the two families signed any written covenant documents, but tacitly agreed to increase the garrison at the junction with Yuan Shao's territory, as if two weak united against one strong.

When Yuan Shao learned about it at this time, he was annoyed and couldn't help but secretly say that it was a pity, he did cut Huang Que's plan behind, but it was a pity that the two families did not fight together, and the calculation given to him also failed.
