Chapter 497: Amazing News (Second Update)

"Three days later, if the scouts sent before still can't return, you and I will continue to attack the next city, otherwise once Sima Xin and Peng Yue lead the army to attack the capital of the Mauryan Empire, with the water army led by the two of them, it is absolutely impossible to defeat hundreds of thousands of Peacock soldiers, so that our three-way army is very likely to be defeated by the Mauryan Dynasty one by one."

When there were only three days left to agree with the team of scouts to return, Han Xin finally couldn't help it, he had to let Xiang Yu know the importance of this matter, they couldn't wait stupidly any longer, they had to use a more fierce offensive to let the rulers of the Peacock Dynasty know that the people who came to invade this time were definitely not easy to mess with, of course, they could only use 30,000 cavalry, otherwise their previous strategy would not succeed.

"What the general said coincides with me, the general should not be in a hurry, since the deadline has been set for them, if there is no accident, they will return within the deadline regardless of whether there is a result or not."

Of course, Xiang Yu knew what Han Xin was really worried about when he told him about this problem, after all, this army was dominated by the Huns, if Xiang Yu took care of his soldiers, it would be a good idea to let Sima Xin and Peng Yue go to death first, in case Xiang Yu really thought so, Han Xin would have to prepare early.

But Xiang Yu obviously didn't think so, the strategy proposed by Ying Gao was indeed a strategy that could destroy the Peacock Dynasty at the lowest cost, this matter Xiang Yu had already approved, what he wanted Han Xin to know was that since he had approved this matter, then it would definitely not be changed easily.

By the third day, Han Xin was already integrating his 30,000 vanguard cavalry, and he had already ordered someone to investigate, about three hundred miles away from this city, there was a city about the same size as this city, and that city should be closer to the capital of the Mauryan Dynasty according to the direction asked before.

Just when Han Xin had already begun to prepare food and grass, news suddenly came from outside the city gate that the team of scouts sent out before had returned, although they came back in time, but they still returned according to Han Xin's previous order.

After these people entered the city, Han Xin directly found the two scholars who followed them, because it involved accurately identifying and counting the information they wanted in a language they didn't understand at all, so those soldiers were basically useless, and whether they could get the desired results or not depended on these two readers.

Seeing the round eyes and excited faces of these two people, Han Xin's heart moved, and he said that there was probably a door to this matter, so he hurriedly found Xiang Yu here.

"What news have you found out all these days, why don't you quickly say that you are with me and Shan Yu? If you don't come back, and the other two armies of my Great Qin suffer losses in vain, the monarch will definitely kill you to make amends! ”

Although he knew that Yinggao would definitely not be able to do such a thing, Han Xin still couldn't help but move out of Yinggao to scare these two young people, because he had already found out that people didn't seem to take him, the general of Great Qin, too seriously, and when they came out, they were summoned by Emperor Daqin himself, not for Han Xin.

"General, this time I waited nearby to inquire about the news, and I really found a very important clue, the Peacock Dynasty actually knew the existence of my Great Qin, and according to rumors, it has mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops to go to the seaside, these days are in full swing to build warships, it is said that the emperor of the Peacock Dynasty has set a date, once it arrives, it will be set off, this matter is now almost known among the nobles of the Peacock Dynasty......"

This news was really something that Han Xin and Xiang Yu didn't expect at all, Ying Gao knew about the existence of the Peacock Dynasty, they already thought that they were very godly, but they never thought that they were just a little bit earlier than the Peacock Dynasty, if you don't come to attack others, people will come to attack you.

But Han Xin and Xiang Yu are not people who only listen to the surface, as soon as they heard that the emperor of the Peacock Dynasty had not even finished building the warship and set a time to send troops, this was simply too hasty, and the hundreds of thousands of sailors may actually reach the boundary of Daqin, and they want to capture Daqin, this is simply a fool's dream.

So the two of them judged almost instantly, the error of this Peacock Dynasty's understanding of Great Qin is quite large, and on the contrary, Yinggao's understanding of this Peacock Dynasty is very accurate, compared with the two, this news makes Han Xin and Xiang Yu's confidence even more sufficient.

"In other words, the main reason why the emperor of the Peacock Dynasty did not rush to send troops to exterminate the two of us is that all his attention is on sending troops to Daqin? Doesn't that mean that after the two generals Sima Xin and Peng Yue landed from the sea, they were very likely to face the hundreds of thousands of troops who were ready to go to Great Qin? ”

Xiang Yu looked at Han Xin while talking about the speculation in his heart.

"If you have heard any useful news, tell me all of them."

Han Xin frowned after hearing this, and nodded at Xiang Yu, obviously he still recognized Xiang Yu's statements, this is also the second accident that Han Xin and Xiang Yu encountered after they arrived here, more than 100,000 troops have been sent to the seaside, which may be a good thing for them and the other two armies, but of course it can also be a great bad thing.

"According to the people of the Peacock Dynasty, the reason why the emperor of the Peacock Dynasty knew about Great Qin was through the mouth of a Great Qin person, according to our guess, this person is very likely to be Xu Fu, a priest who went to sea by boat before, and now Xu Fu is already in the capital of the Peacock Dynasty, and is regarded as a guest by the emperor. In addition, we also found out the exact location of the capital of the Mauryan Empire, but the news of the other two armies was not heard at all. ”

"Good! This time you have completed the task well, go back quickly, and continue to study the language of the Mauryan Dynasty, this general requires you to integrate their language in the shortest possible time, and one person can deal with these in the future, otherwise when can you follow the king's instructions to educate the people of the Mauryan Dynasty? ”

Seeing that their first task was finally successfully completed, the two scholars finally left happily, which was simply the supreme glory for them, and this mission strengthened their confidence in completing the ultimate task of preaching and teaching and solving doubts as Ying Gao said.

After sending away these two scholars, Han Xin looked at Xiang Yu with a solemn expression.

"Shan Yu has already thought about it, the water of this Peacock Dynasty is obviously deeper than I imagined before, then Xu Fu has already arrived here, and told the Peacock Dynasty the details of my Great Qin."

"But the news that Xu Fu told the monarch of the Peacock Dynasty should be the news when the initial emperor was alive, and now Daqin, under the leadership of the new emperor, is already different from what it used to be, if not, how could the emperor of the Peacock Dynasty dare to rashly attack Daqin just by preparing an army of hundreds of thousands?"

Shan Yu means...... The Great Qin in Xu Fu's mouth made the emperor of the Peacock Dynasty think that he was very weak? ”

"Exactly, and how did Xu Fu deceive the First Emperor in the first place, and it is very likely that he will deceive the emperor of the Peacock Dynasty again, otherwise how can he treat the emperor of the Peacock Dynasty as a guest?"

"If the forces of the Mauryan Empire are very sufficient, why can't he just send a team of men and horses to defeat us with only 30,000 horses and horses? Therefore, in my opinion, the guards of the capital of the Mauryan Dynasty are not very strict, it is better for me to lead an army of 100,000 to smash Huanglong, and there are at least 100,000 men and horses on the left and right who have been sent to the seaside, I think that if Sima Xin and Peng Yue encounter them, they will also be defeated, and it will be you and me who will occupy the capital of the Peacock Dynasty at that time, wouldn't it be happy? ”

Just when Xiang Yu hadn't made any decision in his head, Han Xin actually made such a bold suggestion, which Xiang Yu didn't expect, because according to the original plan, the purpose of their team was to attract the main force of the Peacock Dynasty, and looking back, such a job was left to Sima Xin and Peng Yue to do.

And now, except for the hundreds of thousands of horses that have been sent to the seaside, Han Xin's meaning is obviously that everything is done by him and Xiang Yu, a hundred thousand cavalry.

There is a deep-seated reason why Xiang Yu was shocked, that is, once all of what Han Xin said became a reality, then Xiang Yu's 80,000 people played a much greater role in this battle than before, although in the process they may have encountered some bitter battles and caused some losses, but in the end, on the day of the meritorious deeds, Xiang Yu did not know how much land of the Peacock Dynasty could be shared.

After occupying such a city, Xiang Yu actually already had a plan in his heart, the current grassland of the Xiongnu is simply useless except grazing, there is no good climate, and there is no danger to guard, otherwise Yinggao has no interest in this land, it is estimated that the Xiongnu would have been destroyed a long time ago.

Therefore, Xiang Yu was almost certain that when this war really ended in victory, except for a small number of Xiongnu tribes who would stay in their original lands and a small part would migrate to the half of the barren land, all the other tribes would have to move to the land he had given to the Mauryan Dynasty.

Although Xiang Yu was a very brave general, he knew that a race like the Xiongnu would definitely not live by plundering and warfare every year, and he wanted to change the way of life of the Huns.

When he is a hundred years later, what Xiang Yu wants is that the Huns are like the Great Qin people, and they will not be the ones who will die after they die as animals, they must learn to plant and store, and the land of the Peacock Dynasty can provide Xiang Yu with these.

On the other hand, Han Xin, the reason why he was able to say such a suggestion that seemed not very suitable for Daqin was naturally because he wanted to be more competitive than Peng Yue and Sima Xin, but the most important reason was what Yinggao had said to him before he set off.

Ying Gao once told Han Xin that the main reason why he let Xiang Yu get involved so deeply in this matter this time was not that he wanted to leave Daqin's 80,000 cavalry, although the number of Daqin's cavalry was really small, but 100,000 could still afford it.

But Yinggao still tied Xiang Yu to his chariot, in fact, according to Yinggao's statement, he wanted Xiang Yu to finally leave the border of Daqin with the main force of the Xiongnu, and end the dense Xiongnu tribes outside the Great Wall, so he had to step up the construction of the Great Wall from time to time and station the habit of Daqin.

Moreover, Ying Gao also said at the beginning that handing over part of the territory of the Peacock Dynasty to Xiang Yu would only be good for Great Qin, not harmful, at least at this stage, the Huns would always be Great Qin's allies, and now this stage will last for a long, long time.

At that time, Han Xin didn't understand what was going on with the several words Ying Gao said, but there was one thing he understood, that is, to let Xiang Yu be more involved in this matter, in this war, although it may cause the Huns to open their mouths to the Great Qin Lion in the end, but Han Xin felt that Ying Gao was not afraid of such a thing as the lion's big mouth.

Han Xin's proposal was indeed very bold, so bold that Xiang Yu had to think carefully before he could give him an answer, but Han Xin was not in a hurry at this time, because he thought he still knew Xiang Yu.

"If 100,000 is against 200,000, or even 300,000, I wonder if the general will back down?" After thinking about it for a long time, Xiang Yu didn't say anything else, but asked such a question first.

"Since Han Xin has arrived at this Peacock Dynasty, since he promised the king that he must take down this Peacock Dynasty, no matter what Shan Yu thinks in his heart, Han Xin will never withdraw if he does not fight until there is only one soldier left around him."

"Good! Since he was accompanied by a general, Xiang Yu naturally dared to take this risk! ”

At this moment, Han Xin seemed to have directly seen the dawn of the capture of the Peacock Dynasty, and he had always been a little incomprehensible to why the people of the Peacock Dynasty in such a large city were not defended at all, but after hearing what the monarch of the Peacock Dynasty had done, Han Xin suddenly seemed to understand him a little bit, and people had always been so natural.
