No one knows the truth, why did Zhang Han surrender? Sima Xin's persuasion had a certain effect, but it was not the main reason. The crux of the problem is still in Zhang Han, whether it is a mistake, a lack of courage, or another idea, no one knows.

After all, the will of the child has already been conveyed, and it is superfluous to worry. Those things, Ye Tong was unwilling to get to the bottom of it. Ye Tong felt that there was no need, after the 200,000 army was buried, the two of them had already regretted it, and there was no point in tracing back to the source.

Ye Tong, Zhang Han, and Dong Peng talked until dawn. After appeasing the two, Ye Tong arrived at the city wall, and as soon as he arrived at the city wall, he heard Xiang Yu shouting loudly: "General, Ye Tong, please come out and talk." ”

Shame!

Didn't you attack, but negotiate instead?

"Xiang Bawang, what's the matter, please tell me!"

"General, this overlord knows that the Qin army will not defend the pass, and only wants to weaken the strength of the righteous army. Give this overlord a face, the general withdraws, and hands over the Sanguan to our righteous army. ”

Face? How much is face worth?

"Xiang Bawang, judging the army is judging the army, why do you call yourself a righteous army, it's not good! Of course, General Ben still has to consider the face of Xiang Bawang, but if he withdraws like this, what kind of face does General Ben have. Unless Xiang Bawang agrees to a condition for this general. ”

Oh!

"General, tell me the conditions and listen to it, as long as it is not too excessive, this overlord will definitely agree."

Hehe!

"Xiang Bawang, it won't be excessive, it's definitely not excessive, it's just a small request. For Xiang Bawang, it is very simple and easy, does not cost a soldier, and does not cost a copper plate. It can even be said that he is helping Xiang Bawang. ”

Xiang Yu was puzzled after hearing this, is Ye Tong so good? It seems that Ye Tong is not a loser, and he is thankful that he is not calculated by Ye Tong, and he actually helps others, unless the old sow will go to the tree and the Yellow River will flow backwards. If Xiang Yu himself is killed, he will not believe Ye Tong's words.

Hahaha!

"General, it seems that it is difficult for this overlord not to agree, what are the conditions?"

"Xiang Bawang, this general wants Sima Xin, and he will exchange Sima Xin's head for Sanguan. It's simple, isn't it? I don't want to be like General Ben, I can't mix sand in my eyes. He despises the two-faced, capricious villain.

If Sima Xin can betray the Great Qin Empire today, he will definitely betray Overlord Xiang tomorrow. For such a shameless person, the best way is to kill it, which can be regarded as a precaution. Xiang Bawang no longer has to worry about someone making a trick behind his back. ”

Xiang Yu was depressed after hearing this, Xiang Yu didn't like Sima Xin, Sima Xin was indeed a despicable and shameless villain in Xiang Yu's eyes, but Sima Xin took the initiative to take refuge. Once Sima Xin is handed over, who will be willing to take refuge in the future!

"General, this is not very good! Sima Xin came to take refuge in this overlord, did not make a mistake, and handed it over to the general inexplicably, which is a bit unreasonable. ”

"Xiang Bawang, aren't you worried that Sima Xin will turn back again in the future and make a trick behind his back. You know, dogs who eat will never get rid of the habit of eating. Stay by your side, you will eat your master at any time! ”

Sima Xin's face in the distance was gloomy, and he was so angry that he was almost ready to scold the street. If it weren't for the presence of so many people, Sima Xin would definitely have exploded in the universe.

Xiang Yu was thinking, what Ye Tong said was not unreasonable. If you surrender once, there will definitely be a second time, this is a natural character problem, and you can't change it. Yu agreed with Ye Tong's statement. It's just that in front of so many princes, it is really inappropriate to hand over Sima Xin.

"General, although what you say makes sense. However, this is not easy to do! The reason for this, I don't want the general to know in his heart, let's change the conditions! But thank you for the reminder. ”

Ye Tong didn't have to be Sima Xin, he just had a temporary intention and wanted to disgust Sima Xin. Sima Xin's life or death, Ye Tong didn't care at all, just a joke.

Hehe!

Another condition?

"Alright! Xiang Bawang opened his mouth, this general must give face, so it is okay to change someone. Wait for General Ben to think about it, by the way, there is really one, use Chen Ping to exchange for Sanguan, now it's no problem! Xiang Bawang. ”

Xiang Yu was depressed, what was the matter with Ye Tong? Could it be that Chen Ping has a grudge against Ye Tong, haven't you heard of it!

"General, when did Chen Ping offend you!"

Hehe!

"Xiang Bawang, you are mistaken, Chen Ping has not offended General Ben. General Ben rescued a pregnant woman who was looking for death and was about to hang herself some time ago, and asked why she was looking for death, why not think about the child in her belly. After you die, the child in your womb will have a short life before you see the light of day, which is too cruel.

You know, even if there is a big thing, the child in the womb is innocent. After inquiry, it was learned that the pregnant woman was abandoned by a person named Chen Ping in Xiang Bawang's army, and only then did she seek death.

According to the pregnant woman, Chen Ping and the pregnant woman loved each other, because Chen Ping was afraid of guilt, seeing that the person he loved was pregnant, he was worried that the tigress at home would be angry, so he abandoned the person he loved. General Ben once promised the pregnant woman that he would definitely arrest that Chen Shimei if he had the opportunity, no, Chen Ping. ”

Ye Tong is definitely not idle, and deliberately arranged Chen Ping, the purpose is to tell Chen Ping in the dark, this general is looking for you, hurry up to Hanzhong to report. As long as Chen Ping listens to the story, he will definitely understand it in his heart, otherwise he will not be a top strategist.

"General, this is not easy to do! That Chen Ping is gone, and this overlord is sending someone to look for it? ”

Oh!

"Xiang Bawang, have you looked for Liu Bang's camp? I heard that Chen Ping has a good relationship with that scumbag Liu Bang, and they usually work together to build a base? ”

Yes!

"General, what you said is true?"

"Xiang Bawang, I heard it, I haven't seen it with my own eyes, who knows?"

"Good! Then the king sent someone to Liu Bang to inspect it, and found Chen Ping and gave it to the general. ”

"Good! Since Xiang Bawang has promised, then General Ben can't be stingy, and Xiang Bawang will come to Sanguan tomorrow to receive it! Rest assured, there must be no content this time, and it is very safe. ”

Xiang Yu snorted coldly, Ya, and suddenly remembered the matter of Qin Guan, if it wasn't for the reminder of Yafu, he would have been Yin by Ye Tongyin.

"General, is it really safe?"

Shame!

It seems that the matter of Qin Guan has made Xiang Yu much more cautious.

"Xiang Bawang, General Ben has always been attentive to you and never told lies to deceive Xiang Bawang, isn't he? The two of us look at each other, which can be regarded as sympathy. General Ben has deceived all the people in the world, and he will definitely not deceive Xiang Bawang. ”

"Good! Goodbye, General! ”

"Goodbye!"

Shame!

It's better not to see, goodbye is a war to the death, there is no choice. Although Ye Tong likes Xiang Yu, he can't ignore the interests of the country and the nation because he likes it. Everything that prevents the advance of civilization is crushed and pushed sideways, and there is no price to talk about.

After Xiang Yu returned to the Chinese army, he immediately invited Fan Zeng to discuss the matter of entering Sanguan. Xiang Yu was really worried about the experience of Qin Guan again, the water and fire were ruthless, and the fire was together, so he could only flee for his life.

After hearing this, Fan Zeng said: "Yu'er, don't worry, since Ye Tong promised you that there is no content, he will definitely not do anything again." On the one hand, Ye Tong's credibility; On the other hand, Ye Tong seems to like Yu'er. It was Ye Tong who reminded him to pay attention to Sima Xin's matter and take it seriously. ”

"Father, Ye Tongzhen retreated? Don't you worry that our rebel army will continue to advance towards Hanzhong? ”

Hehe!

"Yu'er, if my father is not mistaken, as soon as Ye Tong withdraws from Sanguan, he will burn the plank road next. Without a plank road, how can the righteous army attack Hanzhong. ”

"Father, could it be that Ye Tong gave up Guanzhong so easily, has been hiding in Hanzhong, and doesn't want to send troops to Guanzhong again?"

"Yu'er, it is unlikely that you will send troops to Guanzhong, Guanzhong has become a blank land, there are no people, what do you want to do in Guanzhong? Ye Tong should send troops from the Ba County area, so he also has to wait for Ye Tong to deal with the affairs of the court and train the newly recruited soldiers, these things will take time, not in a short period of time. ”

"Father, since Guanzhong has become a white land, it is not interesting to occupy it, we should not have to stay in Guanzhong! Forget about giving it to the other princes. ”

Hehe!

"Yu'er, the roots of the Chu army are in Jiangdong, and they definitely can't stay in Guanzhong. As you said, staying in Guanzhong has no benefit, and it is not cost-effective. However, even if it is sealed to other princes, the entire Guanzhong cannot be sealed, and the Guanzhong must be divided into several pieces and sealed to different princes, so that Guanzhong will be really safe.

By the way, didn't Liu Bang enter the customs first? set aside a piece of land in Guanzhong and gave it to Liu Bang, which not only kept his promise, but also restricted Liu Bang's development. ”

Fan Zengzhi's plan is really powerful, there are no people in Guanzhong, and it is a problem to occupy Guanzhong and even raise soldiers and horses, what else to develop! Besides, the land in Guanzhong has to be cut into several pieces, and the people who are sealed are estimated to even have the heart to die. First, there are no people, and second, the territory is too small, in a word, there is no development potential.

"By the way, Father, did you say that Ye Tong really asked for Chen Ping for the sake of a pregnant woman?"

Hehe!

"Yu'er, it's hard to say this, Ye Tong has a reputation for cherishing the people. When you see injustices, it's understandable to take care of them. As for what happened between Chen Ping and the pregnant woman, only Chen Ping himself knew.

However, after receiving the news, Zhang Liang was reused in Ye Tongjun, which is a fact. There are also Peng Yue, Xiao He, Zhou Bo and others who have taken refuge in Ye Tong. ”

Xiang Yu didn't care much about Zhang Liang, Xiao and others taking refuge in Ye Tong, and he didn't take it seriously. After all, in this era, there are not many princes who really like to search for all kinds of talents. In addition, Zhang Liang and Xiao's talents have not been confirmed, and no one will pay attention to an unknown person.

After watching Xiang Yu lead the army to leave, Ye Tong ordered a retreat. The army received the order and immediately went into action. Pull away all the supplies, weapons, grain and grass that you want to take away. As for the people on Sanguan, they have already been relocated, and in Sanguan, only the soldiers of the Qin army are left.

Ye Tong led 5,000 soldiers and horses to evacuate overnight without the slightest memory. After passing the plank road, Ye Tong ordered the plank road to be burned again. Directly isolate Hanzhong from Guanzhong, and judge the army not to attack Hanzhong again.

The next day, Xiang Yu led the judgment army into Sanguanzhong smoothly, and some princes wanted to compete for merit, so they brought soldiers and horses to chase and kill. It's just that when I arrived at the plank road, I saw a raging fire. The plank road was completely burned, and if you want to chase and kill, there is no way to chase it!

When Xiang Yu heard that the plank road was burned, he sighed in his heart.

Fan Zeng's words were correct, and Fan Zeng guessed that Ye Tong would burn the plank road. Regarding this matter, Xiang Yu treated it calmly, without getting angry or angry, and did not scold the street. Anyway, Xiang never thought of attacking Hanzhong, even if he wanted to attack, it was difficult, difficult!
