In Linzi City, in the county guard's mansion, Zhao Jun sat on the high desk in the main hall, with scrolls of instructions on official affairs, and there were too many affairs waiting for him to give instructions after a big war, such as trampled farmland, damaged houses, the consumption and supply of ordnance, the distribution of military merits, and a series of post-war problems.

Although there are capable officials such as Sima Xin and Zhou Ke, he still needs to make decisions in the end, so Zhao Jun can't sit in the waiting house, and he was busy in the county guard mansion for three days before it was basically solved.

After the First World War, Linzi's agriculture and commerce were hit, but fortunately, Zhao Jun had already prepared, and the business name of Mrs. Qing stimulated, and the county guard government also took timely remedial measures, so after the war, Linzi City quickly restored its former prosperity.

As for the ordnance loss replenishment, Zhao Jun has already asked the logistics battalion to do it, and now Zhao Ling, Yu Ji, Wu Xing, and Lu Pheasant are managing the logistics battalion together, although things are complicated, but the division of labor is clear and very efficient, and the listener is handed over to Mu Ning to manage, and the other shadow killer is in charge of Bai Ying.

The last is the problem of casualties, originally plus the city defense army, Linzi regular army a total of 40,000 people, nearly 5,000 people died in the first battle, nearly 4,000 people were seriously injured and could not be in the battle, can only be sent to the government service or logistics battalion to do work, plus nearly 1,000 people were slightly injured in the conditioning, this battle casualties nearly 10,000.

Zhao Jun asked Sima Xin to write a battle report and send it to the imperial court, including a meritorious reward, including Ge Ying and the heads of Zhou City, no matter what, this time Zhao Jun won a big victory, and the imperial court always had to reward him.

After that, Zhao Jun ordered Tang Li and others to continue to recruit troops, replenish the army, and train them strictly.

Of course, in this battle, in addition to the lack of experience at the beginning, the Qin army was still not flexible enough to cooperate.

For this reason, the Zhao army was streamlined, 1,500 chariot soldiers were assigned to the main force with 2,500 scout battalions, a total of 4,000 people, and 5,000 bow and crossbow battalions and 3,000 light soldiers were appointed as the left and right guard battalions, so that it was more convenient to move.

As for some other auxiliaries, there were casualties, but the free logistics battalion replenished.

In addition, the performance of the Iron Guard Battalion is also good, and Zhao Jun has begun to increase the number of Iron Guards in accordance with his own training methods, and the initial number is set at 500.

It is worth mentioning that the Zhao army's total annihilation of Zhang Chu's 80,000 soldiers and horses also spread all over the world.

Defeat is nothing, the problem is that they are all wiped out, and Ge Ying and Zhou Shi did not run away, and Tian Heng, the remnant of Qi State, was beheaded by Bai Ying with a sword, and Zhou Shi died under Cao Wuxian's sword

Chen Jun, in the palace of Chen Sheng.

'Bang! With a bang, Chen Sheng smashed a piece of porcelain in the room, and shouted with a gloomy face: "Come on, come on, give this king an order, this king wants to wave his troops to attack Linzi, and if he doesn't kill Zhao Jun, he will not give up, and he will dare to harm my favorite general, he really deserves to die." ”

"No, King Chen." At this time, Cai Ci of Shangzhu Guo hurriedly ran in, panting sharply in his mouth and said: "King Chen, Zhao Jun is just a Xianbei trouble, as long as the Qin Dynasty is destroyed, what big waves can he Zhao Jun make, don't lose big because of small things, and destroy the overall situation." ”

Chen Sheng still respects Cai Ci very much, calmed down a little after hearing this, and said: "If there is an uprising everywhere today, and my righteous army has not tasted defeat, but the Zhao army has completely destroyed my 80,000 soldiers and horses, Zhu Guo must know that he killed not only Ge Ying, but also destroyed the morale of my righteous army. ”

"But can King Chen win if he goes in person, if he loses, won't it affect the situation in the world even more?" Chen Sheng, who Cai Ci asked in one sentence, was ugly, and finally changed the topic and said: "Zhao Jun is a hard bone, we can not move him for the time being, leave it to other rebels to solve, and then avoid the real attack and continue to expand the territory, so that there is no need to touch Zhao Jun, and you can increase your strength, no matter how many rebels in the world are, they can't compare to King Chen, and then they can't be headed by King Chen?" ”

Chen Sheng's eyes lit up and he said, "You mean? ”

"Take Xianyang directly!" Cai Ci's eyes sharpened, and finally he walked to the geographical map on the side of the hall, pointed to the situation above and said: "King Chen, please see, the northern army and the southern army have not waved their troops into the Central Plains for a long time, obviously there is an estimate, and there are military ministers in the north, and there is the Xiang family of Chu in the south, we don't have to worry at all, and from this battle of Linzi, Qin II Fusu and Zhao Jun are obviously dirty, and even suspicious of each other."

In this way, there is no threat to us to take Xianyang directly, as long as we can quickly capture the Qin land in Guanzhong before the Qin Dynasty reacts, the Qin Dynasty will die, and the Qin Dynasty will die. ”

Chen Sheng pondered for a moment, and finally his eyes bloomed with greed, and he said slowly: "You are right, once the Qin State is dead, the world is not alone?" However, how to attack Xianyang still needs to be carefully considered. ”

"I've got a plan." Cai Ci smiled, and then whispered.

Chen Sheng was overjoyed when he heard this, clapped his hands for the last time, and said loudly: "Okay, do it like this, and immediately invite people to discuss matters in the future." ”

Three months passed, and in 209 BC, in the spring of the second year of Qin II.

And another major event happened in the world, Chen Sheng led an army of 100,000 troops to attack Nanyang with Song Liu, Qin Jia and other generals, and the fake king Wu Guangwei led 100,000 horses to attack Sanchuan County, and divided his troops into two ways to take Xianyang.

Xianyang was shocked, and some suggestors ordered the Zhao army to send troops to quell the chaos, but Fusu was not allowed, but thought that the thief army was weak, so let Nanyang Wang Ben and Sanchuan County Li Youzi lead troops to block and destroy the enemy.

The two sides have been fighting for a long time, although the imperial court has not completely defeated the righteous army, but the Qin army is elite, Wang Ben is a famous general, and Li You is also proficient in the art of war, so the righteous army has always been at a disadvantage.

As a result, the entire imperial court gradually lost its vigilance, and Fusu's strategy was to defeat Chen Sheng's main force, and then send troops to defeat the other rebel armies.

As for Zhao Jun, Fusu did not mention a word, and for the reward of Zhao Jun's total annihilation of 80,000 troops, he only proposed verbal rewards, rewarded some goods, and ordered him to guard the place

Linzi.

During this period of time, the county guard government focused on restoring the construction of people's livelihood, Zhao Jun had a high reputation in Linzi, and the Qin army in Linzi was highly treated, so the enthusiasm of the people to join the army was very high.

In the Shenwu Marquis Mansion, in the council hall of the second hall, General Tang Li was reporting to Zhao Jun on the training of the army.

"Master Hou, the number of troops has been replenished, the enthusiasm of the people in Qidi to join the army is very high, and the current training has been quite effective."

Zhao Jun nodded and said, "Well, you have done a good job, continue to train strictly, it is a troubled time, and you can't take it lightly." ”

Several generals responded one after another, but at this time, Guan Ying first complained: "This court is too much of a thing, we have won a big battle, and we don't even have a decent reward." ”

Hu Hai followed and shouted: "That's it, the eldest brother is too childish, and he doesn't let us take action against other rebels, doesn't this clearly mean that we don't want to make meritorious contributions?" ”

As soon as the two of them said this, everyone complained together.

Zhao Jun smiled and said: "Okay, hasn't the imperial court already rewarded the soldiers according to their merits, especially you, everyone's title is supreme." ”

"But there's no boss for you, where can we be convinced, hum." Cao Wuxian's face was unhappy, the so-called lord humiliated the ministers, even if they won the reward, they were not happy.

Zhao Jun shook his head and said: "This is already the Hou Ye, how can I still reward him, okay, let's go down." ”

"Alas" when everyone saw this, they could only hold their breath and go out.

After a while, when there was no one in the main hall, Mu Ning suddenly walked out of the side room, Zhao Jun got up and left the case when he saw this, and asked, "Ning'er, have you ever found out the news?" ”

Mu Ning nodded and said: "The news from the wind-listeners that Xiang Yu has occupied Huiji County, with more than 30,000 soldiers, Liu Bang also occupies Pei County, and the surrounding counties are also controlled by him, with nearly 20,000 men and horses, and they are all elite soldiers, and the money and food are quite sufficient. ”

"How fast is their strength developing?" Although Chen Sheng made a big fuss, Zhao Jun kept thinking about Liu Bang and Xiang Yu in his heart, and only these two were the biggest poison in the end of Qin.

It's just that he didn't expect that the strength of the two would develop in such a way.

Mu Ning said: "Zhao Gao's daughter Zhao Le took refuge in Liu Bang, and his son Zhao Fu took refuge in Xiang Yu, it should be that they have helped the two train soldiers and horses in recent years, so the two can quickly conquer the city." ”

"That's about it."

Zhao Jun nodded, feeling a little tricky, now Fusu is becoming more and more jealous of himself, always vigilant himself, even if he wants to send troops, it will be troublesome, but Xiang Yu and Liu Bang are growing step by step, with the grievances between the two of them and themselves, how can they easily let go of themselves at that time?

Of course, Zhao Jun also thought about not listening to Fusu and sending troops directly, but once this is the case, it means that he has openly rebelled, not to mention whether his strength is enough or not, and the single Northern Army can't spare himself.

Don't look at the fact that the Northern Army has not sent troops to the Central Plains now, if he threatens Fusu, Meng Tian will definitely abandon all kinds of scruples and personally send troops to deal with him, as well as Wang Ben, although he said that he would support himself at a critical moment, but on the basis of his own righteousness.

The southern army basically belongs to Emperor Tiangao, and Zhao Tuo's attitude is unclear now, he only seeks self-preservation, and has no intention of sending troops to help the imperial court.

But who knows, will he make a move, Zhao Tuo will change his mind, everyone has ambitions, if his own army moves, it means that the Qin Dynasty is really stormy, Zhao Tuo is in the opposite, there is no benefit to himself at all, compare himself to be the prince of the Qin Dynasty, and the Qin Dynasty is prosperous.

Therefore, from the perspective of the overall situation, I must not openly resist the order.

"There is another piece of news, I don't know if it's true or not, because it was obtained by someone who listened to the wind on the Chen Wangfu, and the Chen Wangfu is heavily defended, so it can't be confirmed." At this time, Mu Ning suddenly said again.

Zhao Jun was stunned, "What news?" ”

Mu Ning said: "I heard that it seems that Chen Sheng, in addition to Song Liu and Wu Guang, also secretly prepared a team of soldiers and horses, led by Zhou Wen, a general under his command, to go out day and night to steal Hangu Pass. ”

"Straight to the letter of Guguan? Is it Zhou Wen? Zhao Jun was taken aback, and then affirmed: "This news must be true." ”

Mu Ning was stunned: "How do you know." ”

Zhao Jun didn't answer, but his eyes gradually lit up, there was indeed Zhou Wen attacking Hangu Pass in history, and then Zhang Han asked for his life and led the Lishan prisoners to exterminate the rebel army, but I didn't expect that history had changed, and this incident still happened.

This time, Zhang Han didn't know if he could ask Zhao Jun to be like history, he only knew that this was his chance.

Hangu Pass is close to Xianyang, when Zhou Wenbing is in the city, Fusu will be shocked, the court will also be in a panic, and the people's hearts will be unstable.

At that time, he can use this to expand his strength, and then wave his troops to destroy the two great enemies Liu Bang and Xiang Yu. (To be continued.) )
