However, Jiujiang Wang Yingbu was so vulnerable, but Liu Bang was greatly annoyed, and originally wanted to send an extra force to harass Xiang Yu's rear, but he didn't expect Xiang Yu to be easily settled, and the rear position was more consolidated. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 However, Liu Bang continued to insist on his own way of employing people, and did not blame Yingbu, but gave Yingbu a new army, allowing him to train while waiting for the opportunity to take revenge. Yingbu was very grateful and vowed to help King Han sweep the world and destroy Xiang Yu. Liu Bangxin said, stay honest, I can't count on you now......

Over there, Peng Yue, the guerrilla general led a group of ringing horses, and at first the plan to harass Xiang Yu's grain trucks was still implemented, but soon, [Xiang It] cavalry was recruited to outflank him. [Xiang It] personal martial arts are average, but his cavalry troops are still quite strong, and the two armies have clashed several times, but Peng Yue has not taken advantage, so he simply hides and does not let [Xiang It] find it. As soon as the grain was transported away, Peng Yue in turn attacked some cities in the hinterland of the Chu State, and there were times when he succeeded; At this time, [Xiang It] continued to lead the cavalry to come back to settle accounts with Peng Yue, Peng Yue also knew each other, I will run if you come, anyway, I will not leave in the enemy-occupied area. This routine was later learned by the Eighth Route Army two thousand years later, and the Japanese devils howled, but they didn't have any temper! Xiang Yu is like this now, there is no way, so he has to send Xiang Zhuang to follow Peng Yue's example, and constantly harass Liu Bang's flank and grain army.

In short, Peng Yue's side didn't play a positive role in helping, and Xiang Yu basically didn't treat it as a dish.

In April of the third year of the Han Dynasty, under the siege of Xiang Yu on three sides, the Chu army attacked Xingyang in shifts day and night, and was not in a hurry to launch a general attack, but constantly destroyed Xingyang's logistics and material supply. Liu Bang was in a hurry, the grain and grass in the city was about to run out, although the casualties of the 300,000 defenders were not too large, but the morale gradually decreased, and everyone was very tired.

At this time, Liu Bang once again offered a diplomatic strategy.

Liu Bang sent someone to Xiang Yu to send a peace document, which read: "Brother, we are both our own people, and we have beaten and killed the princes in the world. It's not a way for us to consume it for a long time, so let's discuss it. I have a suggestion -- let's take Xingyang as the boundary and divide the world. East of Xingyang, it is all your territory; The west of Xingyang is mine! In the future, our well water will not interfere with river water, and everyone will earn money and make a fortune together, what do you think? ”

Boss Liu's intentions are very clear, on the surface, it is to seek peace, but in essence it is a strategy to delay the army, and he is waiting for the current situation to change in his favor.

Xiang Yu replied very simply, just two words: "No way!" ”

Xiang Yu issued an order to the troops: Brothers, step up the attack on Xingyang, the Han army can no longer bear it! This time, Liu Bang was worried again! There is no endless road.

At this time, the great diplomat [Li Shiqi] had not yet been cooked by the King of Qi, and he was still giving advice under Liu Bang's account in Xingyang. [Li Shiqi] came over to offer advice to Liu Bang and said: "King Han, I know what you are worried about!" Aren't you worried that Xiang Yu is not easy to fight, last time I gave you an idea, easily got Zhang Liang, laid down Chen Liu, and successfully completed the great cause of westward entry into Xianyang. This time, brother will give you another idea, keep it safe! ”

Liu Bang has always been very serious about [Li Shiqi], this Gaoyang drunkard is a little crazy, but he does have a way of expecting it. Liu Bang asked modestly, "May I ask what the master has planned?" May you hear it! [Li Shiqi] said: "After all, the power of one person is limited, Xiang Yu is fighting against the world with the power of one person, why do you want to fight against Xiang Yu with the power of one person?" Isn't that stupid? In the past, when Shang Tang destroyed Xia, the descendants of Xia were rewarded and became princes; When King Wu was defeated, he rewarded the descendants of Shang and became princes. Now we just need to follow the example of Tang and Wu and reward the descendants of the princes of the six countries, these heroes and heroes work together to help us fight against Xiang Yu, can Xiang Yu really fight against the princes of the world? Therefore, this is called borrowing the world's soldiers and destroying the item! ”
