After Han Xin personally led his troops westward, the news was transmitted back to Tibet through the Eagle Falcon.

After Zhang Liang received the news, he was not surprised, but took the news to meet Xiao Rui.

Xiao Rui was browsing the official documents from Kyoto, and there were seven cabinet scholars in the imperial court presiding over the work, and they were basically fine, so he could rest assured that he could stay here for a long time.

It's just that when he saw the information Zhang Liang brought, he was so angry that he slapped the table and shouted: "How can this be true!" Han Xin is so bold! ”

The others didn't know the situation, and they trembled in fright, or was it the first time they saw His Majesty have such a big temper, what happened to Han Xin?

Zhang Liang said with a smile: "Your Majesty is angry, Han Xin expects that Your Majesty will not agree to him to take risks, so he will cut first and then play." Now that he has set off, it is a foregone conclusion. ”

Xiao Rui said angrily: "This Han Xin, it's too nonsense!" Crossing the four counties to Shanyuan County to capture the three passes of the Qinling Mountains is not only a risk, this is a self-defeating way. Once it is surrounded by people, it is possible that the whole army will be annihilated. Meng Yi is by no means a good type, but a famous general in the world, if his intentions are discovered, the more than 70,000 sons will be in danger. ”

"Your Majesty couldn't believe it when he first heard the news, let alone anyone else. Although Meng Yi is a famous general in the world and has great resourcefulness, he also has his own shortcomings! He would have taken into account the importance of the three passes of the Qinling Mountains, and might even send troops to defend Shanyuan County, but he was too stable that he would not believe that Han Xin would dare to take the three passes of the Qinling Mountains directly. Secondly, he was kind-hearted, and if it was me, he directly gave up Mohe County and Qingchuan County and returned to Fangshanyuan County. But Meng Yi probably wanted to make peace with the Yuan State and did not want to give up the five northern states. Although Zhang Liang is in Western Tibet, he has no control over the situation in the Dongqi region, and he is in control.

Strategizing and winning thousands of miles, this is Zhang Liang's ability.

Xiao Rui looked at Zhang Liang with a smile on his face and said, "It seems that the ovary has already guessed that Han Xin will do this, are you giving Han Xin advice?" ”

Zhang Liang shook his head and said, "Weichen doesn't dare!" Weichen has this idea, after all, if he really captures the three passes of Qinling, it will be of great significance, and it will greatly shorten the time to take the sixteen counties of Dongqi. But it's too dangerous, so although Weichen has ideas, he doesn't dare to speak out. Han Xin is his own strategy, and he coincides with Weichen. ”

Jia Xu also smiled and said: "Your Majesty, Han Xin is not a person who is very happy, since he dares to do this, he must have thought deeply, since it has already begun, then promote this matter." ”

Xiao Rui nodded, then looked at Zhang Liang and Jia Xu, and asked, "Two gentlemen, how can I help him next?" ”

After Zhang Liang and Jia Xu glanced at each other, Jia Xu said first: "Your Majesty, I will immediately contact Guo Jia through Eagle Letter, and ask him to persuade Temujin and Meng Yi to negotiate peace, and first draw Meng Yi's attention to Yuan Guo to cover for Han Xin." ”

Zhang Liang said: "Your Majesty, Chen Qing is encircling and suppressing the Qin army in Ying County, and now immediately transfer his 100,000 soldiers and horses, abandon Ying County, continue to go west, and create movement in the south of Zhaodu County and Yanzhou County, attract the attention of Qin soldiers in Zhaodu County and Yanzhou County, so that Han Xin's soldiers and horses can pass through from the north." Some of them disguised themselves as Qin soldiers escorting prisoners, some disguised as rebels and refugees, and they were far away from the crowd, although their speed may have been slower, but their whereabouts were assured. ”

"Secondly, quickly dispatch more troops and horses over to seize the eastern counties, so that the Qin court will have a misunderstanding and will not realize our true intentions."

After Xiao Rui heard this, he immediately said: "Just do it according to your plan." Although Han Xin's desperate move this time is very dangerous, once he succeeds, it will be an immortal achievement! How can I help? ”

Zhang Liang said with a smile: "Your Majesty is sitting here, which is the greatest encouragement to Han Xin. ”

Xiao Rui immediately laughed.

......

After Guo Jia received Jia Xu's secret eagle letter, he immediately went to find Temujin.

Temujin was in his twenties, with the burly of the Yuan people, a pair of eyes blazing, and very majestic.

"What's wrong with sir?" Temujin stood up and asked respectfully.

Guo Jia didn't want to admit it and had to admit that Temujin had the qualifications to be king, and this corporal gesture alone would make more people loyal.

It's a pity that Guo Jia has already met the Ming Lord, and even if he doesn't meet the Ming Lord, Guo Jia will not be loyal to Temujin, because if he is not from my clan, his heart will be different.

Guo Jia stretched out his right hand and put it on his chest, performed a grassland etiquette, and then said: "Lord Chief, General Meng Yi of the Qin State has sent envoys for many days, how is the leader going to reply?" ”

Temujin stretched out his hand to invite Guo Jia to sit down, and said, "I have thought about this matter for a long time, and I can't make up my mind for a long time, and I want to ask Mr. ”

Guo Jia said with a smile: "The leader Liao praised, Guo just made some suggestions, if it was negligence, I hope that the leader Haihan." ”

"Sir's words are strange, Sir has great talents, and he will be able to help me dominate the grasslands, and in the future, he will be able to sweep away all countries and establish a new empire." Temujin said solemnly.

Guo Jia nodded, and said, "Since the leader has such great ambitions, there is no need to think twice, we can cooperate with the Qin State!" ”

Temujin was stunned for a moment and said, "What does Mr. mean to cooperate with the Qin State to deal with the Xia State?" Yes, now that the power of the Xia State is getting stronger and stronger, it has overtaken us and the Qin State, if it is allowed to develop, I am afraid it will be even more difficult to deal with. ”

Guo Jia continued: "Xia Guo needs to be suppressed, otherwise it will become stronger and stronger. But Xia Guo is not easy to deal with. The Khan had already sent his troops south, but unfortunately suffered a great defeat. We can also wave our troops south now and attack Ganzhou and Suzhou in the Xia Kingdom, but the Xia Emperor has stationed heavy troops there, and we will not be able to reap any benefits at all. So in my opinion, getting stronger is the way to go! Throughout the process of the Xia Kingdom becoming stronger, he was expanding the land while accommodating the people, and it was proved that only with the land and the people did he have the qualifications to become stronger. Chief, our Mongolian tribe is a nomadic people, and we have been greatly affected by natural disasters, and now the time has changed. We should seize the land and attract the people, and this 16 counties of Dongqi are the best area. There is fertile land, a huge area of sixteen counties, and a population of more than 40 million, and once all of them are in the bag, the Mongol tribe will have the largest tribe. ”

After a pause, Guo Jia continued: "So Guo's meaning is to cooperate with Qin Guo on the surface, get enough benefits, and then retreat from the army to let Meng Yi take it lightly, and let him fight Xia Guo well." The two sides are evenly matched, and in the end, no matter which side wins, it is a miserable victory. Then we can continue to move south and take the sixteen counties..."

Guo Jia's voice seemed to have a magical power, burrowing into Temujin's heart.

After hearing this, Temujin was stunned for a long time before he said leisurely: "What Mr. said is right, becoming stronger is the king's way. We can fight the Xia Kingdom, but unfortunately the Xia Emperor is too cunning, only defending and not attacking, building walls and repairing the city at the border pass, and sending heavy troops to guard it, so he doesn't give us a chance at all. Since you can't become stronger from the Xia State, let's start from the Qin State. The Sixteen Counties of Dongqi is a good place, if it can be obtained by the Mongolian Ministry, I don't need to look at Khan Qu Kelu's face at all! ”

"The leader is right! Moreover, the future of the leader should not be limited to the grassland, but the entire Shenzhou Continent! It's time to jump out of the prairie. Guo Jia induced step by step.

Temujin nodded approvingly.

At this time, Guo Jia smiled and said, "In addition, this time is a great opportunity to hit the Khan hard!" After the leader and Meng Yi cooperated, he could tell the Khan about the plan to take the sixteen counties of Dongqi, and the Khan would be happy when he heard it, and he would inevitably intervene, because he was afraid that the leader would become stronger and stronger. Therefore, he will definitely send troops to participate, and when the time comes, let the Khan encircle and suppress the remnants of the sixteen counties, and the leader can reap the benefits of the fisherman! ”

"Wonderful!" Temujin's eyes lit up, and he immediately got up and bowed: "Sir is a great talent, with the assistance of Mr., Temujin's great cause can be accomplished!" ”

Guo Jia hurriedly got up and saluted: "The leader has the grace of knowing me, and Guo naturally reciprocates with all his might." However, the leader, this is an opportunity for Meng Yi to bleed profusely, and Guo suggested that he should discuss the alliance with Meng Yi in person! ”

Temujin nodded and said, "I'll arrange it now!" ”

With that, Temujin hurried away.

The corners of Guo Jia's mouth raised a slight arc, fleeting.

He looked in the southeast direction, as if he had seen Xiao Rui through the territory. He knew that he had a long way to go!

Soon, Temujin's request reached Meng Yi.

The two sides are a hundred and ten miles apart, and the distance is very close.

Meng Yi was not surprised that Temujin would agree to form an alliance, after all, the Yuan army was blocked by him, and they could not grab any benefits at all. Now as long as they withdraw and promise not to invade, Meng Yi will give them food.

So why not.

"Where is Xia Jun?" Meng Yi was most worried about Xia Jun.

The deputy general beside him said: "The flying pigeon sent a letter saying that the Xia army has not yet left Dongqi County, but it should be fast according to the speed." ”

Meng Yi nodded and said, "What about Meng Fang?" ”

The adjutant general said: "It's already set off, General Youmeng will lead his troops to guard Shanyuan County, and the Qinling checkpoint will be worry-free, and the general doesn't have to worry." ”

Meng Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

If the Yuan army can really retreat, then he will be able to free up his hands to concentrate on fighting against the Xia army, without worries, Meng Yi is really not afraid of the Xia army, no matter what, the sixteen counties of Dongqi are also the territory of the Qin State.

And there was good news from the imperial court.

Bai Meng and Meng Tian defeated the vanguard of Qin Yu, the king of Xiang, and Qin Xiang, the king of Zhuang, and Emperor Yinghuang occupied the general situation, and it was only a matter of time before the two kings were suppressed, and when the situation eased, they could send troops to support Meng Yi.

"Immediately reply to Temujin, and agree to meet tomorrow at the Hanqiaokou." Meng Yi commanded.

The adjutant general clenched his fists and took the order, and immediately went down to make arrangements.

At the same time, Han Xin, as the first marcher, disguised himself as the "Qin army", escorting the Xia army was about to leave Dongqi County and was about to enter Yanzhou County.

Yanzhou County is in a north-south direction, so the east-west span is not long, according to the speed of Han Xin's rapid march, at most, three days can enter the territory of Zhaodu County.

As the former capital of Zhao State, Zhaodu County was garrisoned by tens of thousands of Qin troops, so once you enter Zhaodu County, you have to be extra careful.
