Chapter 225: Liu Ying's desertion
Three days later, on the banks of the Weishui River.
Tens of thousands of Qin soldiers carried iron armor on their backs, and their hands were full of strong bows towards the sky, maintaining a posture.
Lu Matong was bored, riding a horse and fiddling with a broadsword with a long handle and a wide head.
"What is this, Your Majesty? How come the minister has never seen it? Lu Matong looked at the child next to him.
"This is called the Mo knife, the infantry is specially used to resist the cavalry, the powerful man, can cut the horse in half under a single sword. Lu Aiqing can also call it 'Broken Horse Saber'," Ziying explained.
The Mo knife combines the advantages of ancient long knives and only appeared in the Tang Dynasty.
"Against cavalry?" Lu Matong was stunned for a moment, "What does the minister want it to do, destroy it." ”
"The widow is not for you." Ziying glanced at Lu Matong and snatched it, "It is too difficult for cavalry to enter Bashu, and most of the battles are infantry against cavalry, which is developed by widows for strokes." ”
"It's a stroke again." Lu Matong pouted and said, "The king didn't think about getting some blades for the cavalry?" ”
"Why not?" Ziying took out a bundle of ropes from behind him, "Later, General Lu Cai led the cavalry soldiers and took it to wait for Jiuzhi Mountain." ”
"Siege by cavalry? This thing was also prepared by the king for the pawn, right? Lu Ma Tong put his airway.
"What's the matter? If you want to go, you will go. Ziying pushed Lu Matong, "Hurry up, I have to climb around Jiuzhi Mountain today." ”
Lu Matong muttered and headed north with more than a thousand cavalry.
Ziying looked back at the trained infantry, he had personally supervised the past few days, and the time of one month was too short, he really didn't dare to slack off.
Fortunately, there are Vietnamese people in the army, and the Qin soldiers are shouting vigorously for training, and the effect is extremely obvious.
In addition, the spirit burner was rescued by Mo Yingren, and the armament was not worried at all.
Waiting for Bashu to attack Linjiang is the day when the Qin army attacks Bashu.
Li Xin, who had a sad face, walked to Ziying's side and arched his hand, "Your Majesty, do you really plan to attack Bashu?" ”
"What does Commander Li Xin mean? Is it possible to have a plan? Ziying smiled.
"The minister has no plan for the time being, but that's exactly what he means." Li Xin frowned and said, "In the past, there were constant disputes in Bashu, and King Huiwen had many elite soldiers and strong generals, and he still let Zhang Yi and Sima Cuo use their strategies, and now Bashu is one, and Dujiangyan is required to ensure national strength." Great Qin's strength may not be as strong as it was back then, how can it be attacked? ”
"King Qin Huiwen's strategy? Hahaha..."Ziying couldn't help laughing, "That kind of strategy, just deceive King Tho and King Shu, if Lu Pheasant can believe it, no one will be able to train with all their hearts." ”
Back then, Sima Cuo and Zhang Yi argued that Great Qin would destroy Han first, or destroy the land of Bashu first.
Zhang Yi, who has always been shrewd, thinks that Hancheng is weak and can attack it first, and it is important to advance eastward. In the land of Bashu, Ba and Shu are hostile to each other, but if they attack it, they will definitely die and cannot be taken.
Sima Cuo thought that if he got Shu, he would get Chu, and taking Bashu was the most important thing, and finally King Huiwen listened to Sima Cuo's advice.
So Zhang Yi used the strategy of false Dao to cut down Yu, and said to King Tho, the king of the small country between Bashu, that Daqin had a stone ox that could pull out gold dung, and after attacking Bashu by the way of Tho, he sent the stone ox to Tho. also told the king of Shu the news of the stone cow.
Shu actually took it seriously, and wanted to destroy the stone ox that pulled the golden dung from the Tho country, so he opened the passage between the Shu country and the Tho country.
The Qin army happened to destroy Shu along the channel, turned around and destroyed the Tho country, and it was too late when the country reacted, and two years later, it was a matter of course to destroy the country of Ba.
"If you don't take it into account, this trip is very dangerous." Li Xin hurriedly said, as a commander, it was inevitable that he would love soldiers before the war.
"Lu Pheasant's group of people are very smart, and besides, they know Daqin's actions wherever they are, and they won't believe any of the widows' words." Ziying said, "Commander Li Xin rest assured, the widow has already figured out the way to enter Bashu. ”
"What's the strategy?" Li Xin said urgently.
"Commander Li Xin must have never heard of this plan, that is..." Ziying leaned over to Li Xin's ear and was about to speak.
"Your Majesty, the minister has caught two fine works! Dare to peek at Daqin's training! "The Captain came at a gallop.
Ziying, Li Xin hurriedly turned around.
"What a fine work! It can't be Zhang Er's group of old men, right?! Li Xin said urgently.
"No, it's two young people, very arrogant, and one of them has a stutter." The Lieutenant replied.
"Stuttering?" Li Xin suddenly felt amused, "Maybe they came by mistake, send someone to watch first, and the commander will interrogate them later." ”
Ziying frowned slightly and asked, "Are the two of them talking about Chu Yin?" ”
"Back to the king, really." Du Wei replied, "They are still shouting that it is a subordinate strategy for the king to send someone to kill Pei Gong, and they want to..."
"Where are they? Take the widow with you! ”
Ziying has already guessed who those two are, they can come to Qindi, and it must not be a trivial matter for Bashu to come out!
"No!"
The lieutenant hurriedly took Ziying and Li Xin to the camp.
Two similar-looking men with rags in their mouths twisted left and right trying to break free from the ropes that helped their hands.
The two were dressed in gorgeous clothes, although they were embarrassed, their bodies were full of officialdom.
"Quick... Hurry up and untie the two of you! Ziying pointed to the two of them and said hurriedly.
"No!"
The lieutenant was puzzled, but he still obeyed Ziying's orders.
"Phew... Huh..."The older man glared at Zi Ying angrily, "Is this how the Qin State treats people who surrender to Cheng?" No wonder it will be broken by Xiang Yu, he deserves it! ”
"What did you say?!" The lieutenant was furious and was about to draw his sword.
"Don't be rude! Quickly quit and go to training! Ziying shouted.
The lieutenant bowed his head and walked away.
The two were still disrespectful.
The older man said coldly, "At this moment, I only thought of Corporal Lixian, Ziying, don't you think it's a little late?" In order to recruit talents, King Wen of Zhou even spit out the food he ate in his mouth, you should loosen the ties for me personally. ”
Ziying smiled secretly, he dared to be so arrogant after all this field.
"It doesn't matter if Daqin is late, the big deal is that it will be in vain. This trip should be all about training the Qin soldiers. Ziying smiled, "If the two of you don't say anything, I'm afraid Liu Bang's death will not be far away." ”
The two of them looked cold.
Ziying looked at Li Xin, "Since they have nothing to say, the widow will continue to train with the commander." ”
"It's fine." Li Xin said with a smile.
"Son... Baby... You... Hold it! The smaller man hurriedly exclaimed, "I... We say. ”
"Then please trouble Mr. Zhou Chang to tell what happened in Bashu." Ziying turned around and smiled.
"You... You recognize... I?! Zhou Chang exclaimed.
"The widow not only recognizes Mr. Zhou Chang, but also recognizes Brother Ling Zhou." Ziying smiled meaningfully.
By Liu Bang's side, there is only one person who stutters but can be reused - the imperial historian Zhou Chang!
Zhou Chang was originally the Surabaya soldier in Liu Bang's hometown, and followed Liu Bang to raise troops from the beginning.
Liu Bang was named the queen of Han, Xiao He, Cao Shen, Lu Xuan, and Zhou Chang ruled together, which can be described as a flourishing time.
Lu Juan has no ability to rely entirely on his status as a small person, but Zhou Chang can be in a high position with his stuttering. He did not participate in many wars, but he ranked sixteenth among the eighteen heroes of the founding of the country.
Liu Bang wanted to make Liu Ruyi the crown prince, and Lu Ze interceded with the ministers and ministers, but failed; Zhang Liang asked Lu Shizhi to find "Shangshan Sihao" as Liu Ying's wings, and Liu Bang was completely dead.
But Liu Bang also deliberately asked Zhou Chang secretly, and Zhou Chang was extremely resolute, "If you want to establish Liu Ruyi, you can, it's a big deal for me to accept him." ”
Zhou Chang felt sorry for Liu Bang and died of depression three years later.
His brother Zhou Ke was also a soldier in Surabaya, and was captured by Xiang Yu after Xingyang was breached, not only did not surrender, but also asked Xiang Yu to surrender as soon as possible, and was finally killed. became famous all over the world for a while, and it also allowed Liu Bang to win more people's hearts.
"Both of these men are loyal servants of Liu Bang. It's impossible to take over, so take advantage of it! ”
