Chapter 226: A Battle to the Death

Xiang Zhuang stepped forward and said, "The last general will obey the order!" ā€

The placement stopped, the generals immediately gathered the army, each prepared, Xiang Yu's troops are extremely efficient, only a pillar of incense is needed, the distribution is completed, the army is pulled, the smoke and dust cover the sun, and another ancient war is about to break out! This time, can Xiang Yu still get away with winning?

The ancient road is a west wind and a fierce horse, and the general is all over the world!

Liu Bang sent more than 100 scouts to pay close attention to the movements of the Chu army along the way, and all the passages from Liu Guo to Pengcheng were controlled by all kinds of scouts and spies. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 However, until Liu Bang attacked Pengcheng, he never received any news about the Chu army returning to save Chu. Liu Bangle said: "General, General, which one are you playing?" I took your nest, and you're still out touring, aren't you worried at all? Or maybe you didn't take my brother and me to heart at all?! Okay, count yourself ruthless! When you have nowhere to go and have to go back to Pengcheng, brother, I will settle the account with you! ā€

Soon, the Han army entered Pengcheng and met no resistance.

The common people of Pengcheng are also very strange, they did not hold any welcoming ceremony, not even those who fled, most of the streets, those who do business still do business, those who open restaurants still open restaurants, and even the brothels are open as usual, and it seems that the arrival of the 560,000 Han troops is not taken seriously at all.

Liu Bang sent someone to invite a few ordinary people and asked them: "It's strange, the guards of the Chu army have all fled, and the soldiers have no one to defend the city, why are you ordinary people so calm?" Not even a fleeing refugee?! Aren't you afraid of me Liu Bang? ā€

The common people replied: "We have all heard that the king of Han is also a Chu person, a native of Pei County [Dangjun], and the king of Han has never killed a single person in Xianyang, the capital of Qin, let alone returned to the hometown of the Chu people." So, we're not scared at all! ā€

Liu Bang laughed and said, "That's right! I, Liu Bang, have nothing to be afraid of, I am also from Chu! You are not afraid of me, you will not run away, this is what I want! Thank you! Then he sent for the people to give them a reward, and then sent them home.

Liu Bang entered the city, rested for a while, and immediately did something unexpected. He sent people to surround Xiang Yu's mansion and forbade anyone to enter and leave to harass him; At the same time, the families of Xiang Yu's generals were also protected to avoid being frightened by the chaotic army. Of course, there is a more important thing, he personally went to Xiang Yu's house, and originally wanted to visit the poppy beauty he had admired for a long time, but unfortunately he still pounced! It turned out that Yu Ji had quietly returned to her hometown when Xiang Yu went out to conquer the Qi Kingdom. However, this can't affect Liu Bang's mood, Liu Bang's mood is really good.

He summoned all the princes and generals in the Chu Palace, Zhang Liang, Zhang Er, Wei Wangbao, Sima Xin, [Dong Ping], Chen Ping, Zhou Bo, Lu Ze, [Lu Xuan], [Xiahou Baby], [Guan Baby] and so on all gathered in the Chu Palace. Everyone didn't expect the attack on Chu to go so smoothly.

Liu Bang said with a smile: "Zifang, now that Chu is flat, I expect that the Chu army will return to Pengcheng and fight a decisive battle with me, it will take at least half a month or so, how to deal with it?" What do you think? ā€

Zhang Liang got up, thoughtful, and immediately said: "Boss, this feather soldier is out of nowhere." This time, our army attacked Pengcheng with lightning speed, which is estimated to surprise Xiang Yu. If he withdraws his troops from the Qi State, I have already revised the book of the Three Heroes of the Qi State, pursued the situation, and formed a two-sided attack on it! Xiang Yu still has a trump card in his hand now, that is, Yingbu, the king of Jiujiang, if the Chu army is eager to capture the Qi State, he will inevitably go to Jiujiang to rest and recuperate, in order to seek the opportunity to fight a decisive battle against our army. ā€

Liu Bang smiled slightly and said: "The ovary actually came to me in the same place, but Yingbu is a rare talent with excellent martial arts, both civil and military, and the head of Xiang Yu's five tiger generals." If Xiang Yu joins forces with Yingbu, it should not be underestimated! ā€

Zhang Liang pondered for a moment and said: "The boss can send a lobbyist to find Yingbu directly with a swagger, and persuade Yingbu to join forces with us to eliminate Xiang Yu and allow the territory east of Pengcheng, so that Yingbu's strength will increase greatly!" For Yingbu, Xiang Yu has always been a boulder pressing on his head, with Xiang Yu here, Yingbu will never have a bright day. ā€

Liu Bang nodded and said, "Haha...... The ovary actually came to me again, I have already sent [Li Shiqi] to meet with Yingbu, this battle, Yingbu does not have to come forward, as long as he remains neutral, it will be a great achievement! ā€

Zhang Liang and the generals were impressed: "The King of Han is wise and powerful!" Eliminate Xiang Yu and dominate the world, just around the corner! ā€

Liu Bang waved his hand, expressing humility, and then said loudly: "Generals, conquer Pengcheng today, and [Xiahou Ying] will lead the army to defend the city, and the rest of the soldiers will drink to their heart's content, put on a celebration banquet, and celebrate well!" After tomorrow, we will hurry up to build a defensive offensive and prepare to fight to the death with the Chu army that has returned to the division! ā€
