Chapter 630: Gambling

"Fortified walls, burning cities, forcibly moving people... Xiang Yu is not afraid of public grievances, and the rear is unstable? ”

When Liu De's army marched to Luzhou, he heard about Xiang Yu's series of methods, and all the generals were a little shocked.

Du Ruhui said: "Your Highness, Xiang Yu's rule over the people is already brutal, how can he be afraid of the people's resentment? What's more, Luzhou is not attached to the people's will, like chicken ribs, the food is tasteless, and it is a pity to abandon it. Xiang Yu's poisonous plan makes sense!

Xiang Yu makes good use of light horses, this poisonous trick can lengthen our grain routes, make it difficult to supply, and want to drag us down. Therefore, Your Highness, we should not let the Qi army lead the way. ”

"Tell me about it!"

Liu De lifted his robe, sat down in the tent, and motioned for Du Ruhui to continue.

Du Ruhui said again: "Although this plan is not good for our army, but the Qi army is also self-inflicted, forcibly relocate the people, it will inevitably cause the Qi army to lack food and grass, if you do not relieve the people, there will definitely be turmoil, and half of Xiang Yu's army are Huaizhou soldiers, now it is winter, how can the Huaizhou soldiers adapt to the cold winter in the north, Your Highness, it is better to bring the army back to the border, waiting for the enemy to mess up." ”

Liu De thought for a moment, but said: "Now that the two generals Zhang and Huang have occupied the vital points of the enemy's army, if our army withdraws, will the two generals Zhang and Huang have to withdraw?" If they do not withdraw, the two generals Zhang and Huang will be alone in the enemy's territory, and there is a danger that the whole army will be annihilated.

The soldiers went out with the orphans, but they did not make an inch, which will inevitably cause low morale, and when the people in the rear learn of this, there will also be rumors spreading, so that people with good intentions can take advantage of it, which will make the rear unstable.

The most important point is that the world has been in turmoil for nearly ten years, and Lone wants to calm this turbulent world as soon as possible and save the people from being displaced by war... Xiang Yu's military strength is strong, and he is Lone's biggest enemy except for Li Yun, and after eliminating Xiang Yu, there will be no Lone's opponent in the world..."

Du Ruhui suddenly bowed and said: "With His Royal Highness here, it is really a blessing for all the people in the world!" ”

"In this case, let's discuss where Xiang Yu will attack us..."

Liu De was very useful to Du Ruhui's rainbow fart, but he still did not change his face and continued to discuss military aircraft with the generals.

...

"General, what are your Royal Highness's military orders?"

Liu Menglong asked Huang Zhong.

General Huang Zhong handed the order to Liu Menglong and said to the other generals: "In the letter, Xiang Yu's soldiers and horses are mostly concentrated in Luzhou, so His Highness ordered us to continue to march eastward and cooperate with General Zhang Fei and Zhang to completely pacify Dongzhou." ”

Liu Menglong didn't think much about it, but said quite excitedly: "Since this is the case, then let's follow His Highness's orders and set off as soon as possible!" The work of pacifying a state, maybe I can also be awarded a knighthood by His Royal Highness. ”

Liu Renliang frowned and said: "Since Xiang Yu's army is in Luzhou, then Xiang Yu should want to surround His Highness in Luzhou, and we should bypass to support His Highness, why did His Highness let us continue to pacify Dongzhou?" ”

"How could His Highness not know these things? What's more, there are Xun Shizhong and Du Shizhong on their side, so let's just follow the military order! ”

Liu Menglong retorted directly.

Huang Zhong agreed with what Liu Menglong said, "The old man is fifty-one years old this year, he can be called an old man, the biggest hope of the old man is to let my child Huang Xu live, fortunately I met His Royal Highness, my son let Hua Shen Doctor save him, although my body is still weak, but there is no worry about his life, so the old man's old bones were handed over to His Royal Highness, and His Royal Highness sent him."

And the old man's wish now is to take advantage of the old man's ability to move the big knife, draw a hard bow, follow His Highness, and calm this troubled world, since His Royal Highness has an order, why should there be any doubts? Obey the orders of His Highness! ”

"Yes!"

The generals immediately said yes.

When the generals came out of the big tent, Liu Renliang grabbed Liu Menglong's sleeve and said to him: "Menglong, you come with so!" ”

"What's the matter with my brother?"

Liu Menglong asked puzzled.

Liu Renliang was angry, and said to Liu Menglong in a cold voice: "You said that we act according to the orders of His Royal Highness, and as a general, it is a word of loyalty, but why do you want to mention the matter of knighthood!" ”

Liu Menglong was a little inexplicable, "Why can't you mention the title?" If you pacify Dongzhou, it should be a great achievement, although a certain is only a partial general, but if you make a contribution, why can't you be knighted? ”

"His Royal Highness is lenient and strict with all the soldiers, but if there is merit, how can it not be rewarded?"

Liu Menglong was a little impatient, "Then what do you mean?" ”

"Remember!"

Liu Renliang became more and more serious, "We are His Royal Highness's relatives, there is no room for choice, let me ask you, before His Royal Highness was crowned the prince, we could be by His Highness's side as a clan?" ”

"No, but that's not..."

Liu Renliang interrupted impatiently: "These are not reasons, in the eyes of others, our clans are here to invest because His Highness has the capital to dominate the world!" You say, does Your Highness have any mustard in your heart? ”

"This..."

Liu Menglong was a little frightened. He figured it out a little.

"So we should be more cautious in our words and deeds, how can we ask His Highness for a knighthood because of merit!"

"Remember!"

Liu Renliang let out a long breath of turbidity, "Don't say a word in the future, understand?" ”

"Okay, okay, I got it!"

Liu Menglong was frightened into a cold sweat.

"Okay, Your Highness must know what virtues you have, say less in the future, with Your Highness's mind, I won't embarrass you!"

Liu Renliang patted Liu Menglong on the shoulder, comforted him, and left to mobilize the troops and horses.

Liu Menglong was left alone to stand in front of the tent for a long time.

......

Xiang Tu lost weight at a speed visible to the naked eye, and I don't know how many times I was unconscious, and when Xiang Tu woke up, it was already dim outside the window.

"Ahem..."

With the support of the maid, Xiang Tu reluctantly leaned on the bedside post and asked the generals in front of him, "Is there anything wrong?" ”

The generals glanced at each other, and one of the generals stepped out and said, "The news came two hours ago, Pindu was lost..."

"How did you lose it... Didn't Pindu be on guard? ”

Xiang Tu's face was ugly, but he still asked calmly.

The general cautiously replied: "The son of the Pingdu County Order was provoked by Zhang Fei, went out of the city to fight, and was captured by Zhang Fei taking advantage of the situation, and the Pingdu County Order surrendered..."

"Rubbish!"

Xiang Tu gritted his teeth and scolded.

"General, what should we do now?"

"Cui County, Pingdu are all lost, Licheng has completely become an isolated city, but fortunately, as long as Licheng is still there, Zhang Fei will not dare to go south boldly with confidence..."

"Ahem!"

Xiang Tu covered his mouth, and when he opened his palm, he found that there was a blood stain in his palm, which was extremely bright.

Xiang Tu clenched his palms, looked at the generals who were all timid and restless in his heart, and said in his heart: I don't have much time, if I die, Licheng will be lost, and I didn't want to gamble on some things, but now while I can still move, I have to gamble.
