Whether it was Xia Huan or the third prince, they had no intention of staying in Yingchuan for a long time, and they set off again just the next day.

It's just that Xia Huan needs to take a boat against Yingshui, first to Yingchuan, and then through the Tiger Prison to Sanchuan.

The three princes were the opposite, going down the river to Chenjun and then to Surabaya.

Out of Yingshang, Xia Huan really has no old friends. For Xia Huan, the newly crowned king of Zhou, the people he met in the counties he passed through along the way were just flattery.

Xia Huan didn't pretend to be a corporal, but instead learned from the three princes, and faced each other with a cold face.

It wasn't until outside Xingyang City that Xia Huan waited for Zhou Yu and others, who had also become his pro-army.

"Your Highness, Xingyang is a good place. To the west is the Tiger Prison, and to the north is the Ao Cang ......"

With Xia Huan crowned as the king of Zhou, Zhou Yu can be said to have ushered in the second spring of his career.

The whole person also looks radiant. Although he spoke in a thick Chu voice, he told the details of the vicinity of Xingyang very clearly.

Sanchuan is located in a dangerous place, and outside of Luoyang, the most important thing is this Xingyang.

It's a pity that Sanchuan Chu State only accounts for two-thirds, and Luoyang, as a county governor, has not been included in the boundaries of Chu State.

Originally, Xinzheng was also a good choice. It's just that when the prince asked Xia Huan to be sealed, he made it clear that he wanted him to seize the military power of the season technique.

Settled in Xinzheng, perhaps safety is not to be feared, and it is a little difficult to make any achievements in the military.

Therefore, Xia Huan placed his county governance in Xingyang.

During the Warring States Period, Xingyang was a battleground for soldiers, and in the Qin Dynasty, it was regarded by Qin Shi Huang as the radiation point of Xianyang to the outside world.

Not only in Xingyang Dajian Town, but also on its side to build Aocang. Ao Cang's Su, during the period of Chu and Han hegemony, was enough to supply 600,000 troops.

Previously, the Northern Expedition of the Chu State, if it weren't for Ji Shu to lure the enemy deep and immediately occupy Aocang, I'm afraid that the war would not have ended so easily.

Xingyang sits on Aocang, can enter Luoyang in the west, cross the Yellow River in the north, enter Hanoi, radiate Zhao State, and Shangdang County in South Korea. Its strategic significance is self-evident.

At the same time, the Tiger Prison Pass in the west can also be used as a defense against Han soldiers.

The current Tiger Prison Pass, although it is not as magnificent as it was in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. However, due to the geographical advantage, when it comes to defense, it is also considerable.

Moreover, the name of the tiger prison is even more famous because of the matter of King Zhou Mu prisoning the tiger. It can also be regarded as a famous place.

In this way, Xingyang may really be a good place as Zhou Yu said.

……

Xingyang City is not very big, but compared to the size of Shoudu and the wealth of Yingshang, it obviously has its own unique place.

Dark-colored houses, lined up one after another, full of regularity.

There is a strict division between the square and the city.

Here, the relics left by the Qin Dynasty can be seen everywhere. Even after a few decades, not much has changed.

Especially for the garrison, in addition to some people's squares are used to live in the people, in Xingyang City, more are used to provide accommodation for the soldiers.

may have just experienced a baptism of war, but there are not many people on the streets of Xingyang City. And even if there were, most of them were in a hurry.

As a result, Xingyang as a whole looks a bit depressed.

"This Xingyang...... It's a little cold! ”

Behind Xia Huan, Yu looked at the streets around him, hesitated for a moment, and found a suitable word.

is a little different from Zhou Yu, who has been in the army, when Yu Meng is on the Ying, he often mixes among the people.

Therefore, compared with the people coming and going on Ying, Xingyang said that it was cold, even because Yu Meng didn't want to save Zhou Yu's face.

"Hehe, General Yu doesn't know anything." For Yu Meng, Zhou Yu is still very face-saving.

"This Xingyang is an important military town, and those who can live here are not only the soldiers, but also the relatives of some soldiers. This has continued since the Qin Dynasty. Now, my Great Chu has just occupied this place, and the people here are more or less related to the old Han soldiers, so they are naturally worried about being implicated. ”

"South Korea?" One

Xia Huan, who was just listening silently, suddenly frowned and said aloud. In particular, some points are emphasized to be Korea, not the Han kingdom in Hangu Pass.

"Exactly." Zhou Yu nodded.

"Are there any Korean prisoners in the army?"

"There are about 10,000 people, and the last general is waiting to listen to His Highness's orders."

"Let them all go." Xia Huan waved his hand, as if to say another trivial matter.

"Have you put it all away?" Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, and at the same time reminded Xia Huan: "Your Highness, among the ten thousand people, although there are many families in Xingyang, they can win people's hearts. However, more are not Xingyang people. Is this move a bit of a return to the mountains? Or will the last general send a notice for the people in Xingyang to come and claim the captured family members? ”

Regarding Xia Huan's idea of wanting to win people's hearts, Zhou Yu can still understandably agree. However, he didn't understand the people outside of Xingyang when he put them back.

"It doesn't matter."

Xia Huan waved his hand again and said indifferently, but after a slight pause, he explained to Zhou Yu again.

"Although most of the captives in Xingyang are not from Xingyang, there must still be a lot of Xingyang people in the Korean army. If they are put back, there will definitely be people in the Korean army who miss their relatives very much. Xingyang is only 200 miles away from Luoyang, and if you go down the river, it won't take long to return to Xingyang. ”

The more Xia Huan said, the brighter Zhou Yu's eyes became.

This is a heart-wrenching plan!

Sancheon was originally the main soldier of the South Korean army. Now it is two-thirds occupied by the Chu State, which means that perhaps most of the families in the army have now served as Chu people.

After these Korean captives fled back, some people would definitely be grateful for Xia Huan's benevolence, and it would definitely cause a commotion in the South Korean army.

The morale of the Han army is not much better than that of the Wei State, and now the Han army is newly defeated with the Han State, which is the time when the army's spirit is broken. If someone escapes, it will definitely cause a chain reaction.

Even if the people of South Korea perceive Xia Huan's purpose, the batch of prisoners handled will also affect the morale of the army.

No matter how you look at this, it's a plan to kill two birds with one stone!

"Whoa! This is what I will do! ”

Zhou Yu's voice was full of extreme excitement.

Sure enough, his gaze was accurate. The prince who can stir up such a big movement, even if he was once unknown, how can he be a person who does nothing?

Looking at the figure of Zhou Yu leaving, Xia Huan shook his head slightly.

Zhou Yu may be okay in leading troops, but if it involves other aspects, it is a little insufficient.

It's no wonder that there are so many armies in the Chu State, and in the end, the four of them don't love their grandmothers and uncles.

Compared with Zhou Yu, Yu Meng is obviously more suitable to be the commander of these 30,000 people.

It's just that the palms and backs of the hands are full of meat, and if you want Yu Meng to take Zhou Yu's place, you have to find a suitable reason and time.
