In Zhang Han's army, Lieutenant Dong Fei was discussing military affairs with Zhang Han.

"My lord, now that the imperial court has not made a will, our army is not a long-term solution to be wasted here. You should have planned early! If the imperial court refuses to reinforce or stop the supply of food and grass, then we are in danger. You have also seen the letter sent by Xiang Yu some time ago. It's better to ......" Dong Fei wanted to speak and stopped, he always paid attention to Zhang Han's expression.

Zhang Han sighed helplessly. Dong Peng's words made him in a dilemma. He didn't know that he was in a crisis now, but as a Qin general, surrender would mean betrayal, and it would mean leaving a stench for 10,000 years! He still hopes that there will be good news from the imperial court.

"Captain Dong, let's wait. General Sima Xin should be back soon, look at the information he brought back, and then make a decision! ”

While the two were discussing, a sergeant suddenly reported from outside the camp: "Adults, small ones have urgent military affairs." ”

When Zhang Han heard this, he hurriedly called the other party.

"My lord, the sentry returns. The alliance of princes is trying to bypass us and capture Xianyang. And Xiang Yu's Chu army is still stationed in the camp, as if to contain us. ”

After listening to the sergeant's report. Zhang Han immediately walked to the front of the map and checked the terrain by himself.

Dong Fei also hurriedly stepped forward, pointed to the map and said, "My lord, the alliance of princes can only bypass us by passing through the right flank of our army. The mountains are steep, but not impassable. If the coalition forces pass, Xianyang will be in danger! ”

Zhang Han listened carefully to Dong Peng's opinion, and at the same time kept checking the marks on the map. After much thought, he finally made a decision.

"The herald ordered me to bring 50,000 soldiers to pursue the enemy, and then ordered General Yao Ang to lead 50,000 troops to rush to the rear, and when I found that there were no ambushes, let him make peace with me quickly. Fight the thieves together. Lord Dong Peng, please sit in the camp to make sure you do! “

When the generals heard this, they were ordered to go down and prepare.

After the military order was delivered, Zhang Han personally led an army of 50,000 to attack the coalition army. But as soon as he began to attack the coalition forces, he found that the coalition forces suddenly turned from defense to attack and counterattacked him. And the allied sergeants are all brave. Not at all like a cowardly coalition of princes.

Yao Ang led 50,000 troops to rush to the rear, and after finding that there were no ambushes, he quickly made peace with Zhang Han. His addition turned the tide of the war on a gradual basis. But just when the two were fighting fiercely with the coalition army, they suddenly received an urgent report from the battalion.

"My lord! The camp of our army was attacked by the Chu army. Lord Dong Peng couldn't hold out, but the Chu army continued to invade our camp, and the barrier gradually weakened. In the end, Lord Dong Fei had to fight the Chu army. Although the soldiers and horses of Chu are few, they are brave and good at fighting, and now they have become a stalemate with the soldiers and horses of our battalion. Lord Commander was afraid that the big camp would be lost, so he urgently ordered the small ones to come here and ask the adults to come back! ”

Zhang Han only knew the plan at this time. He hurriedly ordered the army to return to the camp.

In the end, Zhang Han's army successfully held the camp, and the Chu army retreated in time. But after all, some price was paid, and the morale of the Qin army had fallen to a low point.

Just when the Qin army was speculating about their future fate, Sima Xin returned.

After Zhang Han learned that Sima Xin had returned to the camp, he hurriedly went out to greet him. When he saw Sima Xin, he found that the other party was very embarrassed.

"General Sima, what's wrong with you?" Dong Peng looked like the other party when he saw it. Hurriedly asked.

I saw that Sima Xin didn't say much, but directly pulled Zhang Han and Dong Fei back to the big tent quickly.

One is credited to the account. Sima Xin hurriedly said: "General, Du Lieutenant." The big thing is not good, after I escorted Zhang Situ to Xianyang, I heard that Prime Minister Li Cheng was beheaded. When I arrived at the Qin Palace, I was arranged to wait for the decree at Sima Gate. After several verifications, it was learned that Zhao Gao was not dead, and all this was manipulated by him behind his back. Fortunately, Zhang Situ specially instructed me to escape before leaving, and asked me to take a detour to come back. Otherwise, I'm afraid that I won't be able to escape the cavalry sent by Zhao Gao to kill me. ”

When Zhang Han heard this, he was already discouraged. Lees's death undoubtedly extinguished their last hope. And Zhao Gao's matter completely pushed them to the edge of the cliff.

"General! Look no further! Now the morale of our army has fallen to the bottom, and it is simply no longer possible to engage the enemy army. And Zhao Gao won't let me wait! It's still down! Dong Peng said in an almost pleading tone.

When Sima Xin heard Dong Peng's words, he suddenly remembered Zhang Liang's words, and immediately said to Zhang Han: "General." Zhang Situ once specially instructed me to inform you that it is okay to surrender, but you must not surrender Xiang Yu! Otherwise, the lives of the 200,000 army would be in danger. ”

Zhang Han and Dong Fei both stared at Sima Xin in surprise. They couldn't figure out why Zhang Liang would give such an explanation. But at this moment, they had no choice at all, because the rebel army was already led by Xiang Yu, and they could only surrender to Xiang Yu.

After weighing the pros and cons of all aspects, Zhang Han finally made a decision. He first sent Dong Peng to negotiate with Xiang Yu, and after learning that the other party would not pursue him for killing Xiang Liang, he waited until the other party promised to be treated well, and finally all the 200,000 Qin troops surrendered. At this point, the last glimmer of hope of the Qin Dynasty was shattered.

Although Xiang Yu hated Zhang Han, he still kept his promise and did not blame Xiang Liang for his death. At the same time, he promised to kill Emperor Yi after destroying Qin, and promoted Zhang Han and the three of them as kings.

After the surrender of the 200,000 Qin troops, they were often mistreated by the rebels. It's just that most of the sergeants in the righteous army are people who have been bullied by the Qin army, so they are particularly resentful when they see the Qin army sergeants.

When Han Xin saw this, he was horrified. He hurriedly found the right time to report to Xiang Yu, and at the same time stated the disadvantages of this behavior, and said that in the long run, the Qin army would inevitably be in chaos.

Xiang Yu was dismissive of Han Xin's words, and sent the other party away with only a few words. Han Xin saw that the other party used his own strategy to defeat the Qin army, and he didn't listen to his own advice, and he had completely lost his expectations for Xiang Yu in his heart. However, Han Xin's worries attracted Long Ji's attention, and he hurriedly sent his subordinates to secretly monitor the movements of the Qin army. When he heard Qin Jun privately talking about fleeing or resisting, he hurriedly reported it to Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu analyzed the situation in front of him, and in the face of the large number of Qin troops and the lack of food supply, he made a shocking decision! In just one night, he killed 200,000 Qin troops! The name of brutality has been deeply imprinted on Xiang Yu's body since then!

After Zhang Han and the others learned the news, they wept bitterly, and Sima Xin regretted not listening to Zhang Liang's words and blamed himself.

But what benefited the most from this matter was not the alliance between Xiang Yu and the princes, but Liu Bang, who was advancing into Xianyang.

After Liu Bang ate his brother, he went up to the city along the way or was surrendered by Li Shiqi. Or abandon the city and flee after a short fight! Finally, Liu Bang's army came to the last barrier of the Qin State - Wuguan!

"Pei Gong, this martial pass is the last barrier to Xianyang! At this moment, the general trend of the Qin Dynasty has gone, and I believe that the generals guarding the pass will also consider a way to retreat, so it is better for me to lobby for it. "Li Shiqi is very confident.

Liu Bang heard that the other party planned to lobby again, but he was more worried. "Hirono-kun. This Wuguan is the last barrier in Xianyang, and it will inevitably be guarded by confidants, if you go alone, I am afraid that the other party will harm you. ”

"That's right! Mr. Li must not be in danger again! Along the way, you have contributed to the public of Pei, almost half of the city is your lobbying, and now we can get here smoothly, it is all your credit, don't lose your life in this last pass! "Although Fan Xu is a leading general, he is used to fighting. But for the sake of it. He still admires it. Not only because the other party used his skills to protect the army from unnecessary losses, but also because the other party was also a person that Zhang Liang fancied.

Li Shiqi was extremely touched by his love for everyone. He firmly believes that his choice is not wrong, and Liu Bang is indeed a monarch worthy of trust.

Just when everyone was discussing how to successfully pass the military pass, a sergeant suddenly came to report: "General! General Xiang Yu sent a messenger and was waiting outside the tent! ”

When Liu Bang heard that Xiang Yu had sent a messenger, he immediately frowned.

"How could Xiang Yu send a messenger for no reason? Are you here to congratulate us on how well we are going? Xiahou Ying was extremely puzzled by the purpose of the envoy.

Fan Hao heard his guess and immediately said in vain: "You think too much." It would be good if Xiang Yu didn't come to make trouble! Congratulations?! Hmph"

Xiao He still kept a cool head about the situation back then. He didn't slack off. "Pei Gong, in terms of official position, you are under the rule of Xiang Yu, so you can't be lazy! There is no point in our many speculations here, so it is better to ask him to come up and find out as soon as he asks. ”

Liu Bang felt that what Xiao He said was extremely true. Hurry up and send the messenger in.

As soon as the messenger entered the account, he looked around at everyone, and finally locked his eyes on Liu Bang. I saw that he stepped forward extremely elegantly and bowed down and said, "Meet the Hou Ye, I am ordered to come and deliver the letter." ”

As soon as Liu Bang saw the visitor, he immediately felt disgusted. Although he admired Li Shiqi and others, he only liked Confucian scholars who had the ability. And for those poor sour and rotten Confucians, there is still no good impression.

"Who are you? And by whose command? Liu Bang asked coldly.

The other party didn't care about Liu Bang's attitude, and still replied respectfully: "Under Chen Ping, he is a lieutenant under General Xiang, and he is a letter to Wujun. Today, I am here to deliver the letter on the order of Fan Junshi. ”

Liu Bang was stunned when he heard this, and asked casually: "Why are you under the order of Fan Junshi?" Aren't you subordinate to General Xiang? ”

Chen Ping saw that Liu Bang had questions, so he smiled and said: "Master Hou may not know that General Xiang has respected Fan Junshi as his father and respects him very much, so Fan Junshi can also call the shots in major matters in the army." ”

After listening to his explanation, it became clear to the people.

Liu Bang then asked the other party to present the letter. Xiao He hurriedly stepped forward to answer the letter to show his respect for Chen Ping, after all, this person was Xiang Yu's lieutenant.

After Liu Bang read the letter, he suddenly took the case. I saw that his face was full of anger, and he pointed at Chen Ping and said sharply: "You go back and tell Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng, Lao Tzu is not afraid of their threat!" This Xianyang Lao Tzu has settled! I don't care about the throne, and I don't care about the beautiful gold silk you promised! Lao Tzu is indeed greedy for money and lustful, but compared to saving the child, these are all fart!! ”

When everyone heard Liu Bang's words, they were stunned on the spot. Xiao He hurriedly took the letter, and after he finished reading it, he also had an angry face.

Fan Zeng actually threatened Pei Gong, saying that if Pei Gong entered Xianyang first, he would lead a large army to attack it. As long as Pei Gong stays outside the customs, he will give beauty jewelry. ”

After listening to Xiao He's statement, Fan Xu immediately drew his sword and pointed at Chen Ping, and said, "Damn, Xiang Yu will come if he wants to, Lao Tzu is still afraid that he won't succeed?" You kid get back here, or I'll kill you alive right now!" ”

Chen Ping didn't have the slightest fear when he saw Fan Xu's actions, but instead stepped forward and bowed down and asked urgently: "Dare to ask Pei Gong, the purpose of entering Xianyang just now is to save the child, but that person is Zhang Situ of South Korea?" Lord Zhang? ”

"Not bad! Lao Tzu is just going to save my ovary! He was captured by the Qin army to Xianyang, Lao Tzu must rescue him! Liu Bang looked angry.

After listening to Liu Bang's answer, Chen Ping immediately said urgently: "In this case, there is a plan to help Pei Gongbing to seize Wuguan without blood!" Go to Xianyang! (To be continued.) )
