Xiang Yu looked at Emperor Yi's meaning, this matter must be to Liu Bang to get involved, thinking that if he fought hard in the palace, he would inevitably fall into his tongue, so it was better to follow Emperor Yi's instructions first, and even if Liu Bang entered the customs first, he might not be able to guard Xianyang.

"We will follow Your Majesty's arrangement, and we will not dare to disobey." Xiang Yu bowed down first.

Seeing this, Liu Bang was also overjoyed, and now Fan Xubing is in Hangu Pass, breaking through Hangu Pass and entering Xianyang, it is just a matter of order.

After the two of them went down to the palace, Fan Zeng heard about it, just sighed, and looked for Xiang Yu to theorize, Xiang Yu was young and vigorous after all, and the matter was decided, and it was difficult for others to influence his thoughts.

Zhang Liang and Xiao He were waiting for Liu Bang in the mansion for a long time, and when they saw the king of Han returning to the mansion, they hurriedly stepped forward to ask about the matter, "The king, can Xianyang be taken?" ”

Liu Bang just smiled, immediately put the silk book in front of the case, and motioned to Xiao He to write, "Write a letter and hand it to Fan Xu, let him quickly attack Hangu Pass, we will arrive with 10,000 soldiers and horses, we must break through Hangu Pass before this, such a big thing can be done." ”

Several people agreed to part ways with Xiang Yu on a certain day, and the goal was Xianyang, but Liu Bang was downstream, a little farther, and on the surface, he thought that he did not dare to compete with Xiang Yu, and deliberately avoided his edge, but in fact, he had already sent a secret letter.

Fan Xu, who was ten miles away from Hangu, was overjoyed when he received Liu Bang's envelope, and immediately summoned Zhou Bo to fill the baby, and in the tent, the three of them sat down, and Fan Xu put the cloth in the middle.

"The king wants us to send troops, this matter should be done quickly, now that we have been stationed here for nearly a month, we have not been able to send troops for a long time, presumably the Qin army has long since stopped paying attention to us, and we can win in one fell swoop by taking advantage of the night to tackle key problems." The baby whispered.

Fan Xu also nodded when he heard this, "It's just that there are 20,000 Han soldiers, and the soldiers of the Qin army are not yet known." ”

Zhou Bo next to him immediately stood up, "How is it unknowable, a certain guess is less than 10,000 at most, when Zhang Han transferred troops, there were 400,000 troops, and Wang Li led 100,000 troops, all of which were transferred from the Xianyang Emperor's Mausoleum. ”

"What Brother Zhou said is reasonable, even if there are extra soldiers, they will be handed over to Xianyang, how can they stay alone in Hangu Pass, it is better to send troops quickly." Babysitting has always insisted on his own point of view.

Seeing that the two of them were so determined, Fan Xu was no longer hesitant, and immediately ordered troops to prepare for a night attack on Hangu Pass, and at this moment in Hangu Pass, because the Han soldiers had not attacked for a long time, they naturally slacked off a lot.

Usually there are only a thousand people guarding the pass, even if Meng Fang is also disappointed in the Han soldiers, even if the Qin army is sent to harass them, the Han soldiers are still like sick cats, lying still.

Yes, Fan Xu led two thousand elite soldiers to the pass first, bypassed the thousand people guarding the pass, and marched forward for five miles, directly in front of the city tower.

There were fewer people above, adding up to less than a hundred and ten people, so Fan Xu ordered the soldiers to retreat and disperse two miles away, at this time, Zhou Bo and Guan Ying led a large army directly to the pass.

Seeing this, the thousands of Qin soldiers were shocked and hurriedly retreated, Zhou Bo ordered a small force to chase after them, but those Qin soldiers who were about to go back to report the news were intercepted by the people led by Fan Xu and all of them were killed.

Fan Hao came here to kill the fleeing pass Qin army, if it rashly attacked the city, it was bound to hit the grass and startle the snake, when it was ugly, the army all came to the city, and the Han soldiers each held a bamboo ladder rope to quietly ascend the city.

In a few moments, the entrance of the city was occupied, and the army swarmed in, and Mengfang in Hangu Pass was sleeping soundly, and when he heard the news, he immediately sent people to counterattack.

However, the Han army was strong, and the Qin army was really less than 10,000, so they were all scattered by the Han army, absconded in all directions, and were released as generals, so they were naturally martyred.

Hangu Pass was broken, Fan Xu stationed all the Han troops in Guanzhong, waiting for the Han king, the next morning, Ziying was dealing with state affairs, preparing to attack the counties.

Suddenly, the Qin army came to report that the Han army had broken through the Hangu Pass, and in an instant, Ziying's heart was full of discouragement, and he immediately convened the ministers to discuss what to do.

In the Xianyang Palace, a group of ministers, all looked at each other, and in this case, one person stood up and said to surrender, but he was afraid that the child would not be allowed and was pulled out and beheaded.

At this time, another attendant came to report, saying that the Marquis of Pingnan returned to the dynasty, it turned out that after Lu Yan left Wuzhong, he did not return to Linzi, and had been living in the Zhang Mansion in secrecy, hoping to see Zhao Gao being killed and hung in his lifetime.

When Ziying heard that the Marquis of Pingnan had come to Xianyang Palace, she thought it was her life-saving straw, and hurriedly ordered someone to bring the Marquis of Pingnan to the palace and treat him with the courtesy of a prince.

"Lu Hou is coming, is Daqin saved?" Ziying asked in a low voice.

Lu Yan immediately bowed to Ziying, "The Marquis of Chenping Nan is ashamed of the two generations of emperors, and failed to kill Zhao Gao's traitorous eunuchs, so that Daqin has today's troubles, such as being divided by the eighteen kings today, there is no hope of returning to heaven." ”

"The minister came today to stop a big rebellion, hoping that the king can protect the temple of Qin Guozong and surrender to the Han army, so as not to be slaughtered."

Ziying just paced back and forth in the hall after hearing this, "I didn't expect that Pingnanhou was so desperate for Daqin, what do you think Aiqing should do?"

"The ministers are waiting for the king to protect the temple of Qin Guozong!" All the ministers bowed down and bowed.

Seeing that the ministers were like this, Ziying couldn't, so he had to order someone to prepare for the surrender, and when the king of Han came to Xianyang, he went out of the city to surrender, hoping to treat him well.

Ten years ago, this was still the place where the first emperor and the ministers discussed the unification of the six countries, and in the blink of an eye, it became a place for the third emperor of Qin and the ministers to discuss the surrender.

"If Pingnanhou doesn't leave at the moment, what else do you have to order?" Ziying asked slowly.

Lu Yan sighed slightly, bowed and saluted: "The minister asks the king to move to Linzi after surrendering, he can still save the life of his whole family, stay here, if the overlord of Western Chu comes, his life will be worried." ”

"This is the land of my ancestors, how can I abandon it, even if I surrender my children, I don't want to go elsewhere, Pingnan Hou Mo wants to comfort me again." Ziying said slowly.

Seeing this, Lu Yan didn't say more, and immediately returned to Zhang's mansion, and in less than five days, Liu Bang led his men and horses to Hangu Pass first, and ordered people to persuade Ziying to surrender.

Before the envoy arrived in Xianyang, Ziying had already sent people out of the city to accept the surrender, Liu Bang naturally entered Xianyang first, Ziying was at the gate of Xianyang City, naked half, and greeted the king of Han in person.

Liu Bang was very happy when he saw Ziying like this, and directly appointed Ziying as the prime minister, which was on the same level as Xiao He, which shows that Liu Bang is still a bit polite and virtuous.

was originally a small official, but seeing that Xianyang was so luxurious, Liu Bang completely ignored other things, and walked straight towards Xianyang Palace, wanting to take the opportunity to collect money with the soldiers, so that his ruffian nature was revealed.

Unexpectedly, Liu Bang was taken aback as soon as he arrived at Xianyang Palace, and at this moment, Xiao He, Zhang Liang, and Lu Yan were drinking tea and talking in the palace.
