After the merchants' meeting, Ye Tong went to the weapons production workshop and collected a large number of arrows, bows, weapons, grain and grass and other materials to the ring. The road is difficult to travel and the supply is difficult, which can only be solved by Ye Tong himself, and the merchants may not be able to solve it.

A few days later, Ye Tong led the Terracotta Warriors and Horses to the expedition, accompanied by Zhang Han, Zhou Bo, and Bai Lixin. Ye Tong asked Zhang Han to lead 5,000 light cavalry to the front, and he led the Chinese army to follow. The logistics support army was led by Bailixin and slowly followed.

There are also a large number of caravans in the logistics support team, which seem to be huge, but in fact, there are not many soldiers who can really fight, only thousands of soldiers and horses.

Ye Tong glanced at it and found that there was a shrewd and capable little guy behind Zhou Bo, who looked like a mother and son from Zhou Bo.

"Zhou Bo, that little guy who looks like you, who are you?"

"Lord, that's the eldest son of the lowly position, called Zhou Guanfu." Zhou Bo immediately turned to his son and scolded, "I haven't come here to see the lord yet." ”

"Okay, Zhou Bo, you don't need to salute, on the march, there is so much exquisiteness." Turning his head, he said, "Zhou Guanfu, why don't you go to the military academy?" You're the age you need to go to school! ”

Zhou Bodai said: "That...... That, the lord, the optical book is useless, and I am worried about learning Zhao Kuo. Therefore, the humble position let the dog go to the army to exercise for a period of time, so that he could experience the art of war he had learned in actual combat. ”

Hehe!

"It's a good idea, and it makes sense. The things in books are dead, and only by learning and using them can they be regarded as learning the art of war. The art of war is different from other knowledge, and you must practice and experience it yourself in order to know the subtleties. Hehe! Zhou Guanfu, work hard, I hope you will become a generation of famous generals. By the way, Zhou Bo, don't you still have a son? ”

"Lord, the second son's name is Zhou Yafu, he is still young, and he has just entered the military academy."

Hehe!

"Not bad! General Ben is very optimistic about the two brothers Zhou Yafu and Zhou Guanfu, and hopes that the two can open up the territory and pay homage to the prime minister for the rise of the Great Qin Empire. ”

"Thank you, my lord."

"Zhou Bo, if you don't let Zhou Guanfu come to General Ben's side, be a personal soldier first, and when you have the opportunity, General Ben will help you adjust it."

Zhou Bo was so happy in his heart after hearing this! Straight is difficult to express in words. Zhou Bo brought Zhou Guanfu with him, which itself had the meaning of letting Ye Tong know, but he didn't expect that Ye Tong directly transferred Zhou Guanfu to his side as a personal guard, which meant to cultivate.

"Yes!"

Pengcheng:

While Ye Tong was leading the soldiers and horses to walk, Fan Zeng held the latest issue of "Focus" magazine in his hand and read it carefully. While reading Fan Zeng, he sighed, it is really a perfect constitution, the imperial power has been greatly restricted, and the cabinet has greater power, it seems that Ye Tong has completely controlled the court.

Fan Zeng found Xiang Yu, handed over the "Focus" in his hand, and said with a smile: "Yu'er, Ye Tong has solved his worries, and the training of recruits is almost over, and he should be sent soon." ”

Focus magazine is outside the jurisdiction, and each copy requires a thousand dollars, and in the jurisdiction it only needs ten dollars. Anyway, according to Ye Tong's words, the magazines sold outside the jurisdiction are basically bought by wealthy families, princes, big households, and officials, and it doesn't matter if the price is expensive.

Xiang Yu took the magazine and asked puzzledly, "Father, what is this?" ”

"It's a book called a magazine made by Ye Tong's subordinates, and this issue contains the newly issued "Constitution of the Qin Empire" and some legal provisions. It's all some very good laws, Yu'er take a good look at it and learn more. Although you can't do it like Ye Tong, you have to understand the influence of those things. ”

Fan Zeng did not take a stand, and deep down he still agreed with what Ye Tong did. As the soul of the Chu army, Fan Zeng supports it in his heart, but he will not support it on the surface. After all, the interests of too many people are involved, all of them are at the elite level with influence.

"Father, then you say, is it useful for Ye Tong to make these things? The above not only restricted the imperial power, but also restricted the development of large families. If it is really to be implemented, there is no big family, local tyrant and inferior gentry, and official eunuch family in the world who will support it, and Ye Tong is not worried about causing chaos? ”

"Yu'er, I just got the news that Ye Tong has completely controlled the government affairs and armaments of the Qin Empire. The cabinet ministers and several officials of the Qin Empire were all under Ye Tong. The original officials were either driven home to plant sweet potatoes or sentenced. ”

"Father, didn't you say some time ago that Emperor Ziying mobilized troops and horses to attack Ye Tong? There will be results so quickly, or the emperor retreats and does not dare to move. ”

"Yu'er, there is intelligence that Emperor Ziying has made a move, but he has been defeated. It was the emperor's failure that forced him to sign the edict of consent to the Constitution of the Qin Empire. ”

"Father, what should we do? Gather the princes to discuss what to do? ”

Fan Zeng sighed and summoned the princes, is it possible?

"Yu'er, the hearts of the princes are scattered, and they are very gathered. Even if you come and send a representative at most, then nothing can be decided, it's useless. Besides, Ye Tong dispatched a large army, and he couldn't beat us for the time being. Give the other princes a headache! ”

Fan Zeng's idea was very simple, let Ye Tong fight with the princes first, the two sides met with blood, and their strength dropped greatly, and finally the Chu army came forward to solve the problem.

Fan Zeng could only decide according to his thoughts, not knowing that Ye Tong had a cheating device on his body, and he was open. Therefore, Fan Zeng's strategy of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight is serious. It was not the consumption of the strength of the two sides, it was Ye Tong who gradually eliminated the various princes, and finally fought a decisive battle with Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu laughed after hearing this: "Then our Chu Jun is watching the play next to us." ”

Fan Zeng's countermeasures can't be said to be incorrect, the original time and space, Fan Zeng at this time has already left Xiang Yu. In that case, Liu Bang was also beaten by Xiang Yu and lost his armor, and he couldn't even keep his wife and children. If it weren't for Han Xin being too powerful and Xiang Yu being too confident, Chu Han's ending would be another story.

Xianyang:

In the Afang Palace, Cao Shen was holding "Focus" and reporting the situation to Liu Bang. Before Cao Shen could finish speaking, Liu Bang shouted angrily: "What did you say? Xiao He was the prime minister of the Qin Empire, did he make a mistake, is Xiao He a person who is a counterjudge, is it good, Ye Tong's kid dares to use it? ”

Cao Shen was speechless, thinking in his heart, Ye Tong has such a big mind. Cao Shen didn't dare to talk nonsense on his mouth, Liu Bang has a bad temper recently, is angry, and always scolds.

Isn't Liu Bang angry? The Lu family counterjudged, and suddenly Liu Bang cut off the supply of grain, grass and money. Now the soldiers can't even eat their stomachs, let alone fighting, and it is estimated that they will mutini as soon as they send out the troops.

"Lord, it should be true, it has been announced on "Focus", Chen Ping is the secretary of the Criminal Department, this person has been seen by the lord, and it is the original strategist under Xiang Yu. By the way, Zhang Liang is the chief of staff of the military cabinet and has huge power. Therefore, the people who defected to Ye Tong were all reused. ”

Liu Bang glared at Cao Shen fiercely, meaning that Ye Tong dared to reuse talents, and he was the master of Ming. Ya, it's better to scold the widow directly.

"Cao Shen, Ye Tong's kid controls the court and has heavy troops, will he attack the Xianyang region next?"

"Nope! Guanzhong is already a white land, even if Ye Tong takes it down, there is no point, and it is a waste of troops, money and food, so why not use the troops elsewhere? ”

"Cao Shen, do you mean we're safe?"

"It's safe for now."

What Liu Bang didn't know was that Xiao He Rencheng was in charge of internal affairs, and Zhang Liang was in the military cabinet and was in charge of soldiers and horses, all of which were reused by Ye Tong. After this news spread on "Focus", it immediately caused a sensation among many princes, and some thoughtful people began to make small calculations.

Cao Shen is the same, and he is also seeking to contact Xiao He and others, but Liu Bang is closely monitored and does not dare to make big moves. If the monitoring is lax, Cao Shen will flash early, and he will stay here with Liu Bang and wait for death, and it is the right way to take refuge in the initiative.

"Good! Ye Tong's kid didn't come to fight us, and the other princes shouldn't beat us. ”

After hearing this, Cao Shen despised Liu Bang fiercely in his heart, this is content with the status quo, is there a future? But think about it, Liu Bang was beaten badly by Ye Tong, lost a large number of soldiers and horses, and also rebelled against Xiao He, Zhou Bo and others. Hearing Ye Tong's name, Liu Bang was afraid.

It can't be said that Liu Bang is afraid of Ye Tong, the problem is that Liu Bang has no money, no food and grass now, it's really difficult to do, it is more accurate to be powerless. In addition, as soon as Liu Bang entered Afang Palace, he immediately indulged in it, and his ambition had already been wiped out by Gentle Township.

Linjiang:

In the Gongao Mansion, his subordinates reported that Ye Tong sent Han Xin to lead his troops and horses across the Yangtze River to prepare to attack Qianzhong County, a territory under his jurisdiction. This time he was frightened a lot, Gong Ao had heard that Ye Tong's subordinate Han Xin was very powerful, and in Wuguan and Qingni Pass, Liu Bang's army of more than 100,000 people was beaten to the point that he had no temper and suffered heavy losses.

Gong Ao's heart is so angry! The eighteenth generation of Ye Tong's ancestors is sprayed wildly, Guanzhong is not fighting, what are you going to fight Qianzhong County, this is a poor place, there are no good things.

"How many soldiers and horses did Han Xin lead to fight us?" Gong Ao asked.

The son said to the lieutenant: "Father, Han Xin's soldiers and horses are crossing the river, and the destination should be Qianzhong County, can Han Xin dare to come to fight Jiangling?" ”

"By the way, does Ye Tong have a water army?"

One of the generals replied: "Yes, there are not many of them, only a dozen warships, but the warships are very powerful. If Han Xin came to attack Gangneung by warship, there would not be too many soldiers and horses. Therefore, Han Xin is very likely to attack Qianzhong County. ”

Alas!

"Ask Xiang Yu for help! Let's also send troops and horses to block it, it is possible to hold Qianzhong County, it is really not possible, give up! Anyway, Qianzhong County is a poor place, with a small population, and there are mountain people harassing it from time to time, so it is useless to hold it in your hands. ”

In fact, as Gongao said, Qianzhong County is indeed very backward. In fact, at the end of the Qin Empire, the areas south of the Yangtze River were very backward, and the rich places were the areas north of the Yellow River, the Central Plains, and the Guanzhong region, and other places really had no population.

The area south of the Yangtze River really developed during the Southern Song Dynasty. The military strength of the Southern Song Dynasty was too weak, and it was bullied by Xia, Jin, and Liao, and the territory became smaller and smaller, and finally the area south of the Yangtze River was left, and it would not work if it did not develop!

Under that circumstance, the area south of the Yangtze River really developed at a high speed. The influx of a large number of people from the Central Plains and the entry of various advanced farming techniques and handicraft technologies have promoted the development of the areas south of the Yangtze River.

Luoyang:

Shen Yang heard a report from his subordinates that Ye Tong sent Peng Yue to lead a large army out of Shangyong and advance to the Nanyang area, with a great posture of attacking Wuguan. scared Shen Yang a lot at once, and immediately asked Xiang Yu for help, and he also organized soldiers and horses to resist.
