Chapter 432: Thirty thousand
Hanzhong Wang Han Palace discussed the situation, Zhang Zifang intended to strike first!
After Xiang Yu announced his determination to defeat Han, the whole state of Chu immediately began to prepare for this. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info And this terrifying news quickly spread to South Korea and to the ears of Zhang Liang and Liu Bang.
Knowing that Xiang Yu was preparing to attack Han again, Liu Bang immediately took Xiao He and Fan Hao to discuss with Zhang Liang. But Zhang Liang put all his mind on taking care of Lu Zhi and Qingmin at this time, because both of them were about to be full-term.
Seeing that Zhang Liang was revolving around his wife almost every day, Liu Bang was very helpless, although he also supported the other party to take good care of his wife, but this burning eyebrow really made him a little anxious.
"Alas, it's just this time, Xiang Yu and he marched into the army in a big way! I really don't know if he Xiang Yu picked the day, or the children in the ovary picked the day. “
Hearing Liu Bang's complaint, Xiao He was also a little speechless. In the face of the upcoming big war, his heart is also extremely anxious.
"After the last war, South Korea now has only more than 100,000 combat strength. And our Han army was defeated through Pengcheng, and the strength of the army at this moment was only 100,000. Under the sum of the two armies, although there are 200,000 soldiers and horses, compared to Xiang Yu's troops, it is a thousand miles behind after all. ”
Fan Xu heard Xiao He's analysis and was very unconvinced. After snorting slightly, he heard him say in a deep voice: "What's the use of having more people!" The key is how to mix and use! Besides, the King of Henan and the King of Yin have already taken refuge in us, as long as we integrate our strength together, we may not be inferior to him Xiang Yu. ”
Hearing Fan Xu's words, Xiao He just shook his head helplessly. After a soft sigh, I saw him say with a sad face: "Fan Xu, what you said is light." This time, Xiang Yu poured all his military strength out, and even the defense of the border has been completely abandoned. Although the previous defeats had lost some of his troops, now that he had regrouped the Western Chu soldiers, the number of his army was 400,000! That's twice as many as we have with the South Korean coalition! With such a huge gap, how can it be easily overcome?! Moreover, although the King of Henan and the King of Yin have taken refuge in us, everything is just a private agreement. If there is a war, I believe that they will only secretly support our food and grass and other items, if they want to send troops, I am afraid it is impossible. After all, they didn't dare to directly confront that Xiang Yu now. Not only that, but we also have the king of Linjiang in the south, and he is one of the princes who took refuge in Xiang Yu. Previously, King Han used tricks to make him unable to aid Chu, but this time, I'm afraid it won't be so simple. “
After Liu Bang heard Xiao He's comprehensive explanation of the situation, his heart became even more disturbed. And Fan Xu was also a little speechless after listening to Xiao He's narration, but because he was too competitive, he immediately said urgently: "Isn't that Gongao?" What's so scary?! As long as the King of Hengshan and the King of Jiujiang can restrain him for a while, wouldn't it? ”
Although Fan's remarks seem reasonable, they are ultimately unrealistic. And just when Xiao He was about to refute him, he suddenly heard someone else preemptively say: "General Fan Xu, although your method has been used by King Han, it is a pity that it cannot work again." Xiang Yu will definitely learn the lesson of the last time this time and take the lead in getting through the link of Yingbu first. So we have to think of something else, and we have to take into account Yingbu's soldiers, because he is likely to be forced to choose to be our enemy. ”
After Liu Bang and the three of them heard each other's words, they immediately followed the prestige. When they found out that it was their master Liu Yu, they hurriedly saluted him.
"So Master, what a rude! Originally, I only took into account the King of Linjiang, but I forgot that the King of Jiujiang and the King of Hengshan might be held hostage by Xiang Yu. Now that the Master has already thought about it, I believe there must be a way to crack it, right? ”
Xiao He admired Liu Yu's resourcefulness very much, so he began to ask the other party for the first time. But after Liu Yu heard Xiao He's question, he shook his head in great frustration.
"I didn't hide it, and I thought hard about it for a few days. There is no way to deal with it. Although the King of Jiujiang and the King of Hengshan were friendly with the King of Han, the stakes were great after all. Even if they only pretend to attack, they will still create an illusion for the King of Linjiang. Once the other party believes it, then it is really possible to send troops to attack our Korea, and then we will have to face the dilemma of being attacked on both sides, and the king of Jiujiang and the king of Hengshan, we will not be able to count on it completely. ”
After listening to Liu Yu's analysis, Liu Bang's heart suddenly sank to the bottom. But Fan Hao suddenly screamed at this moment, as if he remembered some magic weapon to win.
"That's right! We can let King Qi help! After he became a king, he wouldn't even recognize the king of Han and the king of Han, right?! As long as his soldiers and horses arrive, then we still have hope! Also, that King Zhao also has some strength now, he is a person who has completely surrendered to my Han army, as long as the King of Han says a word, I believe he will devote the whole country to help us. ”
Fan Xu's words were not approved by Xiao He and Liu Yu, but they were also not refuted by the two. Although both of them felt that this method was a bit risky, they had to admit that it was indeed a solution that had no choice.
Just when Fan Hao saw that the two of them did not refute themselves and were secretly proud, Zhang Liang suddenly came to everyone. At this time, he had already heard Fan Xu's words, so as soon as they met, he said in a deep voice: "Brother Fan Xu, although your method is good, it can't be implemented at all. Because once Han Xin and King Zhao come to help us, it will undoubtedly accelerate the pace of our demise. ”
Seeing that Zhang Liang had arrived, everyone hurriedly greeted him. After hearing the other party's refutation of him, Fan Xu hurriedly asked, "King Han, why do you say that this will hasten our demise?" Could it be that if he asked the two of them to bring troops to help, would they still defect to Xiang Yu? ”
"Although it is impossible for them to return to Xiang Yu, once they help us, they will undoubtedly put themselves in danger. And if Zhao and Qi are in danger, we will completely lose all our support. ”
Hearing Zhang Liang's words, Liu Bang and the others were confused. But Li Yu seemed to have understood the powerful relationship at the moment, and kept nodding his head in agreement.
"King Han, Lao Fan! You two might as well think about it, the soldiers and horses of Zhao and Qi are only enough to fight against the Yan State that is peeping at them. And it must be the cooperation of the two of them to really deter the Yan King Zang Di. If we let them come to help, then this balance will be broken, although the Yan King has no plan, but Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng are not stupid, once they know about this, they will definitely forcibly order the Yan King to attack, at that time, the Zhao State and the Qi State are likely to fall into the hands of the other party, and we will completely lose these two places, and then completely fall into passivity, then we will face the danger of being attacked on three sides, I believe you don't want the tense to evolve like this, right?! ”
Zhang Liang's words made Liu Bang and Fan Hao both wake up from a dream, but new questions followed.
"Zifang, since you said that you can't use the soldiers and horses of Zhao and Qi, then we can only fight against Xiang Yu alone. But in case the King of Linjiang really flanks us as Liu Fuzi said, how can we deal with it? ”
Liu Bang's question is also a mystery that everyone is puzzled about. And Zhang Liang suddenly laughed after listening to the other party's question. It's just that the smile is a little sinister......
"As the saying goes, whoever calls me dead first, I'll let him die first! Since we are worried that this Linjiang King will attack us, it is better to strike first and send troops to destroy him now!! ”
Shocked to hear that Zhang Liang wanted to destroy the King of Linjiang, everyone was a little shocked. And after Xiao He listened to Zhang Liang's plan, he quickly questioned it.
"King Han, you're not joking, are you?! Now the Chu army has begun to prepare to move troops against us, and the opponent's army is twice as powerful as ours. If we divide our troops now, we will undoubtedly give ourselves to each other! Moreover, the king of Linjiang has 100,000 soldiers and horses, and if we go too few soldiers and horses, we will undoubtedly go to death, and we will completely become the prey of Xichu. But if the army is used, how can it deal with Xichu?! ”
Xiao He's question revealed everyone's doubts, but Zhang Liang seemed very calm at this time, as if he had already made up his mind about this matter.
"Brother Xiao He, your consideration is very reasonable. But you seem to have forgotten one thing. That is, Xichu is now preparing to move troops, not already moving troops. There is a fundamental difference between them! To tell you the truth, now my son of the Prime Minister of South Korea, Li Wen, that is, my brother-in-law, has developed the FedEx delivery industry to various places, and even the vassal states have begun to work. And its purpose is not only to do business, but also to gather intelligence. Therefore, I have learned that the approximate time of Western Chu's march will be half a month later, and we can make good use of this time to try to eliminate the King of Linjiang as soon as possible. As long as we can eradicate this trouble, we can concentrate on dealing with Xiang Yu, even if we lose some troops because of this, it will be far stronger than being attacked on both sides! ”
Zhang Liang's words made everyone stunned, in addition to marveling at the other party's way of obtaining information, they were also surprised that Zhang Liang had such an extraordinary vision.
After thinking about it a few times, Liu Bang decided to act according to Zhang Liang's strategy. After Zhang Liang learned that Liu Bang agreed with his opinion, he hurriedly put forward a deployment plan, and at the same time put forward his own views on the attack.
"This attack is mainly about rapid mobility, so I propose that it is better to use all cavalry! Because only cavalry will take advantage of their speed and have time to return to their aids! As for the number of people, I think it's only 30,000! ”
Hearing that the cavalry was chosen to attack the king of Linjiang, everyone thought it was feasible! It only took 30,000 horses to hear it, and Liu Bang and the others were instantly stunned on the spot! At this moment, they don't know if there is a problem with their ears, or if Zhang Liang made a mistake and said the wrong number of people......
Seeing that everyone was looking at him in amazement, Zhang Liang immediately understood what the other party was thinking. Before everyone could ask, he smiled and said, "Don't doubt it, I'm talking about 30,000!" I just want to use 30,000 cavalry to break it with 100,000 soldiers and horses of the King of Linjiang!!
