Chapter 845: The Difficulty of Yingbu
Jiangcheng.
News of the defeat of the British and Burso has already arrived.
Early that day, when the news came out, the ministers were shocked.
Everyone didn't expect that Han Xin would defeat Yingbu and capture the city of their Chu Kingdom.
And just after the news came, the ministers immediately became indignant.
"In the first place, Yingbu shouldn't have been allowed to go."
"That is, he was originally Han Xin's subordinate defeat, can he be Han Xin's opponent?"
"This Yingbu has ruined the affairs of my Chu State, and when he comes back, he must not be easily spared."
"Such a crime of defeat must be punished severely."
"That's right, that's right......"
Qunchen, you said it word by word, Chu Yu's side was also a little annoyed, originally, he still wanted to rely on Yingbu to resist Han Xin's soldiers and horses, and then continue to consume it with Tang Guo.
Who would have thought that Yingbu was defeated.
And the defeat of Yingbu, the soldiers and horses of the Han State and the Tang State are bound to gather in Jiangcheng, at that time, can he resist the situation of the two countries?
What made Chu Yu even more angry was that Wei actually withdrew its troops from Chen, and his plan to contain Tang failed to do so.
Everything began to be unfavorable to the Chu State.
"You Aiqing are right, when Yingbu comes back, I will not spare it."
When these words came out, the ministers felt a lot more comfortable in their hearts, but at this time, Xiang Bo suddenly stood up: "Holy Lord, if General Yingbu comes back, he cannot be punished, and even now, he should send someone to find General Yingbu immediately and forgive him for his defeat in battle." ”
When Xiang Bo said this, the ministers were stunned, a little puzzled, and Chu Yu didn't understand, so he asked, "Xiang Aiqing, why did you say this?" ”
"Saint, although Yingbu was defeated, he still has 20,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, if these 20,000 soldiers and horses enter Jiangcheng, it is also a big force, but if General Yingbu is punished, in case General Yingbu refuses to return to Jiangcheng, how can it be good?"
Xiang Bo's words are already very clear, if Yingbu is punished, Yingbu is very likely to never return, in that case, their Chu State will lose another 20,000 soldiers and horses.
The loss of 20,000 soldiers and horses is definitely a big loss for them, and now they are only 50,000 soldiers and horses in Jiangcheng.
Everyone understood the meaning of Xiang Bo's words, but they were all a little disdainful.
"Xiang Aiqing, that Yingbu doesn't dare to betray me."
For this, Chu Yu is very confident, Yingbu is the general he picked up, and he believes that Yingbu will not betray him even if he dies.
Seeing this, Xiang Bo couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
People are sparing their lives, if Na Yingbu comes back unpunished, then he will naturally not betray, but if he knows that he will not have good fruit to eat when he comes back, he must think about it.
"Holy one, no."
"Okay, it's decided, Xiang Aiqing doesn't need to say much, just send someone to strictly guard the city."
Chu Yu did not refuse to listen to persuasion, now that there is no Fan Zeng, he is doing things more and more according to his own wishes, and although Xiang Bo has some ability, it is not enough to make Chu Yu obey him.
Seeing this, Fan Zeng could only sigh helplessly.
------------------
After the defeat of Yingbu, he led the only remaining 20,000 soldiers and horses to the side of Jiangcheng.
And just when he was rushing towards Jiangcheng, Han Guo was not in a hurry to catch up.
Han Xin just walked slowly with the Han soldiers, without the slightest hint of hurry.
When the soldiers who accompanied the army saw this, they were very puzzled.
On this day, Fan Hao finally couldn't stand it anymore.
"Marshal, Yingbu has no surplus of 20,000 soldiers and horses, after we catch up, we can directly destroy them, why let them go back so much, you know, once they return to Jiangcheng, it will be a big threat to us."
Fan Xu used to kill dogs and was a rough mine, but he was also careful on weekdays, and he was a very good general in the Han Kingdom.
Han Xin's expression was calm, but he only showed a light smile: "If you destroy Yingbu's soldiers and horses, it is better to collect them for your own use, so that you can strengthen my Han soldiers." ”
Hearing that it was taken for their own use, Fan Hao and the others were a little incredulous.
"Marshal, don't make trouble, how can Yingbu's soldiers and horses be collected for their own use?"
Everyone didn't believe it and couldn't help but shake their heads.
Han Xin here, but smiled: "After Yingbu receives the news from Jiangcheng, he will naturally surrender to my Han Kingdom." ”
Han Xin knows Chu Yu very well, and knows that Chu Yu doesn't have much energy, Yingbu has been defeated twice, which has ruined the affairs of the Chu State, Chu Yu is only afraid that Yingbu will be punished, and as long as Yingbu hears the news, then he has the possibility of subduing Yingbu.
Everyone still didn't believe it, but Han Xin didn't continue to explain anything, because he knew very well that if you told these people things they didn't believe, no matter how much you said, they would still not believe it.
The best way is to let them see it with their own eyes, and seeing is believing, and they will naturally believe it.
The Han soldiers walked like this, and Yingbu's side really quickly received news from Jiangcheng.
"General, the ministers of the court and the central government have proposed to punish you severely after you go back, Holy ...... The Holy One has agreed. ”
The spy told Yingbu the news, and when Yingbu heard this, his face changed suddenly.
Indeed, he fought against Han Xin, was defeated twice, and lost the face of the Chu State, and it is a little unreasonable to punish him just because he was defeated, right?
Wasn't Bazhong City, which Chu Yu guarded, broken by the Tang State earlier than him?
"Abominable ......"
Yingbu was suddenly at a loss, if he went back, he might just die, there was nothing, such a result was really not what he wanted.
"General, since the court is so unkind, then we will be unjust, let's not go back to this capital."
"It's just, if we don't go back to the capital, where can we go?"
"General, I see that the Han soldiers have no intention of chasing us, but I'm afraid that Han Xin has other plans, if we take refuge in the Han Kingdom, maybe we can also be reused."
"This ............" Yingbu hesitated a little, he was a general who followed Chu Yu, he had witnessed the glory of Chu State, and now he wanted him to betray Chu State and take refuge in Han State, to be honest, it was a little difficult for him.
If you don't surrender, you might be able to save a little bit of your reputation, right?
But after thinking about it, he felt that it was unlikely, he had already been defeated twice, what else was there to be a reputation?
All the honor is ruined, and all he wants now is to live.
And he now has two choices, one is to leave and no one will take refuge, but in this case, sooner or later he will still become the target of others.
As long as Han is willing to accept him, his treatment in Han will definitely not be too bad, after all, he took refuge with 20,000 soldiers and horses.
It's just that even if he wants to take refuge in the Han Kingdom, can the people of the Han Kingdom accept him? Han Xin didn't chase after him, but did he really mean to surrender himself?
