Chapter 234 - Receiving the people and sending troops to Chenjun.
When Zhao Yun heard that the people under the city were from Pingmao, he was immediately shocked, and climbed the wall and shouted: "The people under the city, where is Lord Zhang Yi and Zhang now?" ”
When the people in the city heard this, they all whimpered and cried, and the old man's voice was pale and weak: "Hui, back to the general's words, Zhang, in order to delay the Jiujiang Army, Lord Zhang has taken 3,000 young people to die on the city wall with Pingmao......
Mr. Zhang said that he had a friendship with Lord Liu in Yuxian County, and asked me to come and join Lord Liu. There is also a handwritten letter from Lord Zhang. ”
The old man's trembling hands brought out a piece of brocade from the belt of his clothes.
"What?!"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and they all found it difficult to accept the news of Zhang Yi's death.
Zhao Yun was also stunned for a moment, and then muttered to himself: "Lord Zhang is such a loyal person, why is he so ......?"
Liu Qing, who was on the side, heard that the old man had died in battle, and at this moment he also burst into tears and said: "Brother Zhang! Why did you go like this! ”
After Liu Ru heard this, Dou Da's tears also flowed from the show: "Dad, Uncle Zhang has gone, people can't be resurrected after death, and the mourning is ......."
Before he could speak, he wept bitterly. The generals of the Chu army also regretted it at this moment.
After everyone stopped crying, Liu Qing hurriedly ordered someone to put down the suspension bridge to welcome the people into the city and receive them.
After the people of Pingmao entered the city, they were grateful to Liu Qing.
After arranging the people, everyone also returned to the county guard house to discuss the plan.
"Alas, so to speak, I'm afraid that Xu Chu's pursuers have already passed Pingmao and are not far from our army......"
The first side will report in detail what he has just learned from the mouths of the people.
…………
The words are divided into two ends. However, it was said that the Chu army was unable to besiege Pengcheng and received news of Han Xin's reinforcements, and Ben Yu fought a fierce battle with the Qi army. But the weather was not beautiful, and it snowed heavily. The unprepared Chu army had no choice but to retreat on all fronts and temporarily go to Xiapi to recuperate.
At this time, Xiang Yu was in the courtyard looking at the goose feathers and heavy snow in the sky, and pounced on the earth.
"It's really better to be a human being than a god!" Xiang Yu couldn't help but sigh.
This time, the Chu army sent troops to attack Qidi, which can be said to have injured 1,000 enemies and 800 themselves! Although in the case of surprise soldiers, they successfully took strategic places such as Xiapi and Xiaopei.
But it also cost more than 10,000 people! The 10,000 horses led by Qin Qiong were basically disabled by Yuan Shao. There were only 3,000 men left, highlighting Yuan Shao's encirclement, and smoothly returned to Xiapi City.
Just as Xiang Yu was thinking in the courtyard, a guard outside the door rushed in and handed a letter to Xiang Yu. After Xiang Yu checked, he ordered someone to send everyone to discuss the matter.
In less than half an hour, everyone had already arrived in the courtyard.
After everyone arrived, Xiang Yu, who was in the main seat, slowly spoke: "Everyone, Xu Huang just sent someone to send news that General Zilong has already had news, and now he has joined Guan Ying, and Guan Ying has decided to defect to our army!"
When everyone heard this, they were immediately overjoyed and congratulated Xiang Yu one after another.
"Good! King, since this infant is willing to defect to our army, then this Yingchuan area is just around the corner! Liu Bang this time, but he cut his wings! God bless Dachu! Great King Hongfu!"
"No, it's not that simple!" Looking at the smiling crowd below, Xiang Yu had a solemn face.
When everyone heard this, the smiles on their faces gradually dissipated, and they all revealed questions.
"Alas, this irrigation baby promised to surrender to me, but now most of Yingyin has fallen into the hands of Cao Cao!
Three days earlier, the Jiujiang Army had successfully captured Yingchuan. General Zilong and Marquis Yingyin suffered heavy losses and broke out separately. Now the Jiujiang Army is pursuing with all its might.
At present, Xu Huang's troops are blocked by the Jiujiang Army in Chen County, and they can't support the two, but they are afraid that General Zilong and Guan Ying will be more than lucky!" Xiang Yu's face was full of sadness, this was simply a slap in the face for a sweet date.
When everyone heard this, the previous good mood suddenly diminished by half
"What does the king mean......" Liu Bowen said with a sad face.
"Well, sir's guess is right. This king plans to send troops to Yingyin to aid General Xu Huang!" Xiang Yu nodded in confirmation.
"But if you go to support General Xu Huang, I'm afraid that the troops of Xiapi and Xiaopei will be empty. The Qi army will make a comeback! ”
Regarding what Guo Deming said, Xiang Yu nodded undeniably. Although it is snowing heavily, the Qi army is still eyeing it, according to the strategy of the Han Xin soldiers, if you hear that the troops in Xiapi are empty, you will definitely bring troops to take it!
So many Chu Jun brothers sacrificed their lives to get the city, if Xia Pi and Xiao Pei were handed over, Xiang Yu was naturally unwilling.
For a moment, everyone fell silent.
At this time, Xu Maogong, who had not said a word before, smiled and said: "King, there is a way to make the Qi army dare not come to attack!"
"Oh? Mr. Hece, come quickly!" As soon as Xiang Yu heard that Xu Mao had a plan, his eyes immediately lit up.
"The king's previous breakthrough to provoke generals has already made the Qi army cowardly, in fact, as long as the king personally sits in Xiapi, then Han Xin naturally does not dare to raise troops to attack!
As for the matter of aiding General Xu Huang, the king only needs to send a general to it!"
Xiang Yu heard it and immediately praised it. Although Xu Maogong's plan is not clever, he can use his prestige to deter the Qi army and make it dare not send troops, which is a good plan!
The plan was established and implemented immediately.
When Xiang Yu was about to appoint the person who went to support Xu Huang this time, Qin Qiong stood up and asked for his life and asked him to go to support Xu Huang.
"The king, I am willing to raise troops to support General Xu Huang! Wear the guilt and make meritorious service to repay Hongze's defeat! Please let the king do it! I will do my best to assist General Xu Huang!"
In the face of Qin Qiong's request, Xiang Yu naturally couldn't refuse, and immediately comforted him: "Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and General Qin doesn't need to blame himself for the battle of Hong Ze."
Since General Qin has asked for orders, then General Qin will lead 5,000 men and horses to support Xu Gongming, help him take Chen County, and pick up Zhao Yun and Guan Ying!"
"The last general obeys!" Qin Qiong immediately stepped forward to receive the seal.
At this time, the "" Wei Chigong on the side couldn't sit still when he saw Xiang Yu promise Qin Qiong. Immediately jumped up from the seat of "Teng" and said: "King, there is an objection!" It's not fair!"
"Oh? What is General Wei Chi's dissatisfaction? Although. Xiang Yu looked at it and immediately smiled.
"I'm not convinced, it should be me who raised troops to aid General Gongming this time, not Qin Qiong! I also asked the king to withdraw his order and let me go to support General Komei. A certain will definitely take down Chen Jun, and ensure that General Zilong and Marquis Yingyin will return to the king unscathed!"
", I advise you not to make trouble! What do you mean by being the one who is fighting this time? Don't you see the seal on my hand? This is the king's own seal! You still want to fight with me?!" As soon as Qin Qiong heard that Wei Chigong was going to compete with him, he immediately showed his hand and came slowly.
"Cut! You don't talk about it! The king saw that you were frustrated by the Qi army, so he let you go. Otherwise, this will have to happen to me!" Wei Chigong did not show weakness at this moment.
After eating the defeated Qin Qiong, although Xiang Yu did not blame, he was naturally uncomfortable in his heart, and he was holding back the fire in his heart. At this moment, as soon as he heard that Wei Chigong stimulated his sore spot, a wave of anger came out.
"! Don't deceive people too much! Since you are not convinced, then we will see the real chapter! Let's compete! Whoever wins, this seal belongs to whom! Do you dare? ”
"Humph! Why don't you dare!"
