Prisoner Chapter 354 A Game of Chess (3)

Liang has a good complexion.

Except because of an earlier arrow wound. And it's a little pale. The whole person is very energetic. There is no decadence of a prisoner

6 Jia and Zhang Liang are old acquaintances. At the beginning, 6 Jia went out of the mountain. It was at the invitation of Zhang Liang. Prepare to travel to the county.

I didn't expect it. Under the misfortune. He didn't go to Pei County. Instead, he stayed in the building. and became an important adviser under Liu.

And what about Shusun Tong?

Although I don't know Zhang Liang. He was a Kong-man descendant. Hole's students. There is something in the chest.

He was able to win over so many people for Liu. Naturally, there is a communicative segment. Zhang Liang is also a well-educated person. It's only a moment of effort with my uncle and grandson. And they talked very happily. When Liu walked into the cell. Zhang Liangzheng and 6 Uncle Jia had a big talk. His face was full of joy.

Liu walked in. There was no sound either. Sit down on the side.

And Zhang Liang didn't seem to see Liu. Continue to talk to 6 Jatong.

Liu didn't care. Just listen quietly.

Suddenly. Zhang Liangkai asked, "This general is coming to Hangu. How should the king respond? ”

This abrupt tone of conversation. It caught Liu off guard. He was looking for the right time. opened his mouth to persuade Zhang Liang to surrender. Who knew that Zhang Liang didn't wait for him to speak. But he asked noisily. Liu for a while. I don't know how to answer.

Fortunately. He has lived in this era for more than ten years. Whether it's the idea or the aspect. Liu Du was more or less affected. He also knows. Liang asked. In fact, it was an assessment of him. In the late Qin period. Influenced by the atmosphere of the Spring and Autumn War, it is not only the monarch who chooses his ministers. In the same way, the minister also chooses the king. This is not the same as the later unilateral selection of kings and ministers. If the answer is not satisfactory, then as a courtier, you have the right to abandon the lord. This is the age of choice. Appraisal is not the power of the monarch.

Even if he is a wise emperor. When recruiting talents, you must also go through an assessment.

From the earliest Lees. to the later Uncle Yu and others. The first emperor has been assessed again and again. Final confirmation of allegiance.

Even Liu Bang. Zhang Liang chose him at the beginning. It's not a choice without reason.

Zhang Liang's assessment of Liu Bang was even as early as when Liu Bang was chased by Liu Bang and had no way out. It had already started when I met Zhang Liang. Liu said: "The danger of the Hangu Pass. Blocking Chu Xiang from outside Hangu. ”

Zhang Liang looked at 6 Jia and Shusun Tong. Then he asked, "You two think." What did the Tang King say? ”

6 Jia thought about what Tang Wang said. It's also a way to be weighted. ”

The uncle replied: "I don't know about the military. I really don't dare to say anything. ”

Tang Wang said. If it was three years ago. The elite of Guanzhong did not lose time. Blameless. But. Although there are 400 people in Guanzhong today. Plus Northern Xinjiang and Bashu. A population of seven million is a bit conservative. With the talent of the Tang King. When you know that there are 800 miles of wealth in the pass. But since the accession to the throne II. The barrenness of the fields. The conscription was heavy. Three mass conscriptions in four years. Moreover, the rebellion of Zhang Chu has made the people of Guanzhong war-weary... Now the hearts of the people in Guanzhong are still useful. The king wants to decide the country and the country should be decided. ”

Battle?

Liu didn't want to fight.

But the problem is. Chu Xiang is in a big position. Battle? "I would also like to ask Mr. Zifang. When to do it. Can you fight a battle? ”

When Liu asked this sentence. A little more careful.

Zhang Liang's attitude changed. Makes him a little elusive. What exactly does he mean? It's hard to do it. Is this going to be surrendered to me?

Although the purpose of Liu's trip. It was to persuade Zhang Liang to surrender.

But Zhang Liang was too proactive. This initiative. It made Liu suspicious.

Zhang Liang stretched out his hand. Dip your fingers in the wine. A simple shape was drawn on the table. "Now. Chu Xiang is carrying the trend of crossing the north. Soldiers are under the Hangu Pass. The king wanted to stop him from entering. Presumably not below.

And so it goes. The king and Chu Xiang. Stalemate.

And the foundation of the king in Guanzhong. and unstable. Once it is delayed for too long. The people were afraid that they would be bored. Anti-American. Liu nodded slightly. 6 Jia and Shusun Tong. Agreed. "That's Mr. Son's meaning. Should you take the initiative? ”

Liu said this. Abrupt stop. He shouted outside the cell door, "Someone." Take the diagram to come. ”

of the figure. It is a must-bring item for Liu. There are dedicated soldiers in charge of safekeeping. Liu's voice did not fall. I saw the soldiers holding a scroll of pictures. Step into the cell. Liu's diagram unfolded. It is the shape of Shandong and Guanzhong. Liu Fei glanced at it quickly. "If so. I should send troops to Shaanxi County. According to the elbow of the river armpit. Enter. Can be a pool. Tiger Eye; Retreat can be based on the letter valley. Choke the throat in the middle. Mr. Ovary. I don't know what to say. Is it correct? ”

Zhang Liang's eyes. It's bright.

He only started with a start. There was a test of Liu's intentions.

If Liu Bang is here. will take care of his thoughts; But Liu Bang can't be like Liu. Not only understanding. Even the details are worked out.

The most commendable part. That's what Liu calls the strategy. coincides with Zhang Liang.

Shaanxi County. In later generations, it was under the jurisdiction of Sanmenxia, Henan

And "Shaanxi" literally. The meaning of this level. It's the side that is dangerous and difficult to pass.

This Shaanxi county is located in the embrace of mountains and mountains. It is the throat of the Weihe Plain in western Henan (that is, Luoyang). Therefore, it is named after the word "Shaanxi". As early as one hundred and seventy years ago. It was under the rule of Great Qin. It was placed by Qin Xiaogong. Since the filial piety. Shaanxi County has become an extremely important military point.

The Great Qin soldiers sent a letter to Guguan. Shaanxi County needs to be used as a bridgehead.

The soldiers of the Six Nations are in the Hangu Pass. It is also hoped that Shaanxi County. As a fulcrum to pry the level.

to say. In the Bo-in of Guanzhong Lao Qin and Shandong Six Kingdoms. Shaanxi County is an important chess piece.

However, in the first emperor swept the country. After unifying. The importance of Shaanxi County. It was gradually ignored by the world.

When Zhou Zhang broke through Hangu Pass. Uncle once said: "Zhou Zhang's luck is too good." It was also that the Hanya garrison was too lax. He went around Shaanxi County to attack Hangu Pass. If it was during the reign of the first emperor. Only more than 10,000 soldiers and horses are needed. can make his million-strong army go up in smoke. ”

Therefrom. It can be seen that the importance of Shaanxi County.

It is no wonder that the first emperor was after the Six Kingdoms. In a period of withering one.

Effort. However, the middle-level officers of the Chu army in the past were even Xiang Ji. He is also good at tactics. And the people of strategy. This is many. Intentionally or unintentionally. The importance of Shaanxi County is overlooked. It's not just the princes of all walks of life who ignore it. Even the Qin people ignored it.

Zhang Liang re-mentioned that the county did not give Liu a line of thought.

He groaned for a moment. Then he said: "After I occupied the county with an army. Light attack. Then take Fengling Pass. What do you think? ”

This wind mausoleum is said to be the tomb of the queen of the wind under the command of the Yellow Emperor. Whereas. Later generations called it Fenglingdu. It is also the intersection of Sanchuan County in Guanzhong, Hedong. It's what the soldiers want.

Warring States period. Qin and Wei fought at Fenglingdu many times. to compete for Guanzhong Hexi. Now. It has also been overlooked.

Liu Ruofengling. It is equivalent to connecting the east and the west. It is of extraordinary strategic importance.

Zhang Liang's eyes were brighter.

He likes it. It fits in with the feeling.

At the beginning, he chose Liu Bang as the main one. A large part of it is because of Liu Bang and his co-production. And now it seems. Liu seems to understand his intentions better than Liu Bang. Cooperate with the kind of people-kun. I think it's going to be very happy. The smile on Zhang Liang's face. Thicker.

In fact, since he was captured, Zhang has been thinking about an important issue.

It's raw. Or die?

Raw is simple.

He believed that if he wanted to surrender to Liu. Liu will never refuse. But the problem is. If he can't be reused. What is the point of being alive? Die. It's easier. On the way to Xianyang. Zhang Liang has at least a hundred chances. Committed suicide.

However, he studied diligently. Before it can be shown. Just a whimper. Isn't that a pity?

Zhang Liang at this time. with Zhang fifteen or sixteen years ago. Ideas have been different. Especially after the death of Han Wangcheng. Zhang Liang was very touched. He narrowly exterminates the old. The revival of Korea was liberated from the mind. began to set his sights on the world.

This is also an important reason why he chose Liu Bang. He asked Liu. It is to assess whether Liu can meet the requirements of the people in his mind; He asked 6 Jia and Shusun Tong. It's about wanting the way. Under Liu. Will someone restrain his swing. Very good. Liu's reaction was not bad. And 6 Jia and Shusun Tong's answer. It also made Zhang Liang satisfied. Of course. He also knew that he couldn't trust Liu like 6 Jia or his uncle and grandson. I want to reach what I am under Liu Bang's account. I'm afraid it's not realistic. Because. From the mouth of 6 Jia. Zhang Liang knew about the existence of Che and Chen Ping. This is the mastermind. I'm afraid it's hard to come; However, he was relied on by Liu. It's not too difficult.

Zhang Liang said: "Actually. Take Shaanxi County. Zhanfeng Lingdu. It's not just a matter of things. ”

Liu hurriedly said, "Please also ask Mr. for advice." ”

"The king of Tang is in Guanzhong. With northern Xinjiang and Bashu as the two wings. Its momentum is like a Kunpeng soaring in the sky. It can be described as the end of the day.

But. Chu Xiang's momentum. is not inferior to the Tang King.

He has Fan Zeng and Chen Ying under his command. Wise and resourceful... If Hangu can't gram. He will turn to defend the sun. Henan and look at Sanqi. Jinghe invaded northern Xinjiang in the north. And so it goes. The Tang King can only focus on defending. Plus Guanzhong is war-weary. It is not ten years without appeasement of the world.

What does King Tang think? ”

Liu Lian nodded. "What I say is very true."

"Tang Wangshan County. One can repel the enemy outside the valley of Han. Second, it can revitalize the hearts of the people in Guanzhong. ”

"Yes?"

Zhang Liang said with a smile: "Tang Wang Mo is anxious. Wait for me slowly.

Nowadays, Shandong is dominated by Chuxiang. However, the princes are not of one mind. The Tang Dynasty occupied Shaanxi County. A handful of soldiers can be used. Contain Chu Xiang's soldiers.

Meanwhile. Convince Sanhe Chu Wei. Attack behind Chu Xiang.

And the Tang king occupied Fenglingdu. It can threaten the east of the river at any time. Then make Chu Xiangbei's soldiers and horses. It is difficult to gather all your strength for a while. And so it goes. Shandong will inevitably achieve a plate of loose sand. Difficult to aggregate. Chu Xiang can only use Sanchuan as a basis. Tired of dealing with passers-by.

Not in a lifetime. The king of Tang can pacify Shandong. Capture the country.

This is like a game of chess, if the Tang King can capture Shaanxi County. It is equivalent to taking advantage of the first hand. One move first. And step by step. Liu suddenly realized. got up and waved it to Zhang Liang.

"I would like to ask my husband for help. Help me win this game. But I wonder if Mr. would like to? ”

This time. Liu no longer needs to think about what kind of psychology Zhang has. One thing is for sure. He is indeed an unpredictable mind. This Shaanxi County is settled. It shows Zhang Liang's talent. If you can't take it for your own use. The only thing is to destroy it.

After all. Zhang liang. There is a world of difference.

Zhang Liangxin also breathed a sigh of relief. Get up and bow back. "Good and hard to find the Lord. Now he is a prisoner of the stairs. but the king values it. Dare not to call for death? ”

Liu laughed. stepped forward and grabbed Zhang Liang's hand.

"My ovary. It is possible. ”
