Chapter 28: Wei Yi's Concerns (Three Watches, Asking for Recommendation Votes)
"It can't be!" Liu Bang quickly came back to his senses, Huo Ran got up and said, "Impossible!" ”
Yingbu also stood up with Huo Ran, and said in a lost voice: "Xiahou Ying, are you mistaken? Li Zuoche and Jin Shu have an army of 50,000, and they are all elite divisions that have experienced a hundred battles, while the Chu army is only a few thousand remnants! You actually said that the remnants of the Chu army wiped out Li Zuoche's army of 50,000? This, this, how is this possible!? ”
"yes, how is that possible?" Liu Bang also echoed silently.
Peng Yue, Zhang Er, Han Xin, King Han Xin and other princes also nodded again and again, refusing to believe it.
"Ugh." Xiahou Ying sighed, and immediately told the whole story of Li Zuoche and Jin She's defeat.
Liu Bang was silent when he heard this, and only after a long time did he say in an inexplicable tone: "Flooding? The Chu army actually dug up Huaishui? ”
The princes of all walks of life were also shocked by each other, and they were no strangers to the strategy of flooding, but the example of a guy flooding a radius of hundreds of miles into Zeguo had never heard of it! Xiang Zhuang is ruthless! Hundreds of thousands of Chu people in the entire Jiujiang County, he said that he was flooded? This ruthless butcher!
After a long time, Zhang Liangcai said: "First attacked Fan Hao with fire, and now broke Li Zuoche with flooding, when did this Xiangzhuang become so cunning?" ”
"I'm getting braver than ever!" Chen Ping said in a deep voice.
"This Xiangzhuang is really a climate." Han Xin said that he was going to get up and ask for battle.
Suddenly, hearing a loud sound of "Ping", Peng Yue, the king of Liang, had already taken the case and shouted: "King Han, Xiao Wang is willing to mention 100,000 elite soldiers in the headquarters, immediately kill Ben Shouchun, and swear to behead Xiangzhuang Xiao'er!" ”
Seeing Peng Yue preemptively ask for battle, Han Xin frowned and sat back again.
Liu Bang was silent, but the corner of his eyes swept to Zhang Liang and Chen Ping at the bottom right.
Chen Ping just shook his head, Zhang Liang shook his head and made a gesture to Liu Bang, Liu Bang understood, immediately took out his sword and slashed it on the wine case in front of him, only to hear a clear sound, the wine case has been cut off a corner, Liu Bang held the sword and shouted loudly: "Lone should personally raise the army to go to the crusade, you can go with Lone and go to the expedition!" ”
"No!" Han Xin, Peng Yue, Yingbu and other princes from all walks of life stood up one after another and promised loudly.
##########
When Liu Bang reorganized the army and prepared to conquer in person, Xiang Zhuang had already led the Chu army into the mountains.
Looking back behind him, Shouchun has completely become a country within a radius of hundreds of miles, and from then on, there will never be the name Shouchun on the map of China, and it is likely to be Shounoze, or Shouhu.
Calculating the time, Liu Bang should already know the news of Li Zuoche's defeat.
Next, it's Han Xin's turn to come out, right? Or did Liu Bang personally lead the army to the expedition?
Thinking of this, Xiang Zhuang couldn't help but feel heavy, compared with Han Xin or Liu Bang, Li Zuoche is also a small fish and shrimp, and Fan Hao is not worth mentioning, especially desperately, when Han Xin or Liu Bang arrives, there must be hundreds of thousands of huge troops to follow, which is by no means something that the Chu army can compete with!
But then again, isn't that exactly what Xiang Zhuang wants?
As early as when Dongcheng was reorganizing the army, Xiang Zhuang had already thought about the future strategy of the Chu army.
Step 1: Sneak attack to take Shouchun and get much-needed supplies such as food and ordnance!
Step 2: Relying on Shouchun and the nearby mountains, fight a few beautiful victories, one to boost the morale of the Chu army and recast the fighting spirit, and the other to hurt the Han army and lead out the army of Han Xin or Liu Bang!
Step 3: Relying on the vast Dabie Mountains, fight a sports war with Han Xin and Liu Bang's army, and wait until Han Xin and Liu Bang's army is tired and dragged down, the food is eaten up, and the army is forced to withdraw, and then return to Jiangdong!
Now that the first two steps of the strategy have been completed, there is only the last and most critical move!
However, Xiang Zhuang always felt that there was a problem with the three-step strategy he formulated, but where there was a problem, he couldn't find it out at once, he just had a vague feeling, although Xiang Zhuang was the soul of the later generations, he had more than two thousand years of insight than the ancients, and it can be seen that more knowledge does not mean that the strategic vision is high.
Strategic vision is almost innate, and it is not something that can be replaced by insight.
Seeing that it was approaching evening, Xiang Zhuang immediately ordered to camp, and then called Wu Shi and Wei Yu to him.
Xiang Zhuang deliberately explained his three-step strategy in front of the two of them, and then asked Wu She: "Sir, if our army can survive the encirclement and suppression of Liu Bang and Han Xin's hundreds of thousands of troops, and then force them to retreat, and then return to Jiangdong, will Da Chu have hope for revival?" ”
"This ......," said Wu Shine, "of course there is hope." ”
Wu Shi said that there was hope, but his tone was very uncertain, obviously, he did not think that the Chu army would be able to survive the encirclement and suppression of hundreds of thousands of troops by Liu Bang and Han Xin.
However, the person Xiang Zhuang really wanted to ask was not Wu She, but Wei Yu.
When asking Wu She's words, Xiang Zhuang's eyes were always paying attention to Wei Yu's expression, and when Wu Shi finished speaking, Xiang Zhuang clearly noticed that the corners of Wei Yu's mouth moved slightly, and it was clearly a disdainful smile, obviously, Wei Yi was also not optimistic about Xiang Zhuang, let alone the more than 5,000 remnants of the Chu army.
Xiang Zhuang immediately asked, "What does Mr. Wei Yu think?" ”
Wei Yi's face was expressionless, as if he hadn't heard Xiang Zhuang's question at all.
Xiang Zhuang couldn't help but scratch his head a little, there is no doubt that Wei Yi is definitely a big soldier at the level of Sun Wu and Wu Qi, he is not only a master of tactics, but also a master of strategy, Wei Yi must know the shortcomings in the three-step strategy, but unfortunately, Wei Yi is not willing to work for him at all, nor is he willing to give advice for the Chu State.
No, we have to think of a way, we have to let Wei Yu give advice to Da Chu!
As the saying goes, as long as you are a human being, you have weaknesses, although Wei Yi is a big soldier, he will also have weaknesses, as long as you find his weaknesses, you will definitely be able to convince him, but the question is, what is Wei Yu's weaknesses?
Female? Will you be tempted by beauty when you are over the age of sixties?
Fame? Wei Wei weakly entered Qin, assisted in winning the political army and swallowing the six countries, how much fame is this?
Lelu? Wei Yu used to be the Taiwei of Great Qin, and at that time, his family wealth was more than a huge amount, and he would still care about Lilu?
Obviously, none of the above can be Wei Yi's weaknesses, so what is Wei Wei's weakness?
Suddenly, Xiang Zhuang's gaze stopped on Jing Qian, who was carrying a bulging sack with "32 Chapters of Wei Qianzi" written by Wei Qian.
Xiang Zhuang's heart suddenly moved, yes, Wei Yu's weakness is "Wei Yuzi 32 Articles"!
When Xiang Zhuang ordered Jing Qian to untie the sack, he took out a military book from it, and then said to Wei Yu: "Mr. Wei Yu, it has been a long time since I invited you to the army, and you have already thought about it clearly, and now, General Ben wants to solemnly ask you once, are you willing to serve the Chu State?" ”
Wei Yi stroked his long beard and said lightly: "I don't want to." ”
"Okay." Xiang Zhuang nodded and said indifferently, "Then don't blame General Ben for being ruthless!" ”
"The general is going to threaten him with death?" Wei Yu said abruptly, "The old man is nearly seventy years old, and he only abandons the world in the middle of a day, how can he care about this, hehe." ”
Seeing that Xiang Zhuang and Wei Yi were getting more and more stiff, Wu Shi couldn't help but be anxious, and hurriedly persuaded Xiang Zhuang: "General, don't be rude to Mr. Wei Yi." After that, Wu Shi persuaded Wei Yu again, "Mr. Wei Yu, the general also said angry words in a hurry, not intentionally offended, and I hope Mr. will not be surprised......
Xiang Zhuang pushed Wu Shi away and said coldly: "There are no idlers in the army!" ”
After that, Xiang Zhuang threw the military book in his hand to Jing Qian, and shouted: "Jing Qian, tie this old guy under the big tree over there, let him fend for himself, and then burn these dozens of military books, it's useless to keep them anyway." ”
Wei Yi sneered at first, and when he heard that Xiang Zhuang was going to burn the military book, his face suddenly changed.
Jing Qian naturally didn't care so much, and immediately led someone to tie Wei Yu to the bottom of the big tree, and poured dozens of military books in the sack to the ground, and then used flint to light the pine torch, and raised the fire to burn the military book, Wei Yi was in a hurry when he saw it, he was not afraid of death, but he was afraid that "Wei Yu Zi 32 Chapters" would be lost, that was his life's work!
"Wait, stop!" Seeing this, Wei Yu was so anxious that he stomped his feet, "Stop, you can't burn it!" ”
Xiang Zhuang raised his hand slightly, and the torch in Jing Qian's hand slammed suddenly, and at this time, the fire head was only a millimeter away from the military book.
Wei Yu breathed a long sigh of relief, and then said to Xiang Zhuang in a slightly pleading tone: "General, you can kill the old man, but you can't destroy the old man's hard work, this "Wei Yu Zi 32 Chapters" is made by the old man in his later years, not only has there been many modifications to the previous work, especially this 32nd article, it has never been handed down, you can't burn it!" ”
"Hahaha." Xiang Zhuang laughed and said, "Sir, have you finally admitted that you are Wei Yu?" ”
Wei Yi is silent, now he just doesn't want to admit it, what is the matter of keeping his life's work, Wei Yu doesn't think Xiang Zhuang is scaring him, this guy is definitely a ruthless master, Shouchun is full of strong men, and if he says that he will be slaughtered, more than 200,000 people in Jiujiang County will be drowned, and if he says that he will be drowned, what is there in this world that he dare not do?
Xiang Zhuang changed his face again, and said coldly: "It's okay if you don't burn the military book, you have to promise General Ben a condition." ”
"You!" Wei Yi frowned suddenly, and said rather unhappily, "General, aren't you difficult for a strong man?" ”
"Then tell me, why don't you want to serve the Chu State?" Xiang Zhuang said coldly, "Just because it was I who destroyed Great Qin?" So you have a grudge against Da Chu? ”
Although this is not the main reason, it is also one of the reasons.
Xiang Zhuang said again: "Are you still worried that the feud between Great Chu and Great Qin has not been resolved, and the long-cherished hatred has not been eliminated, once Great Chu is revived, the remnants of the pre-Qin will be wiped out?" ”
Wei Yi's heart suddenly sank, but Xiang Zhuang's words hit the nail on the head.
The hatred between Great Qin and Great Chu is indeed impossible to resolve in Wei Yu's view, first Great Qin destroyed the Chu State, and then the Xiang clan of the Chu State destroyed the Great Qin, and now, the remnants of the pre-Qin Dynasty helped the King of Han to hit Xiang Chu hard, in the future, once Xiang Chu is revived, how can he easily let go of the remnants of the pre-Qin Dynasty? As a member of the remnants of the pre-Qin Dynasty, how could Wei Yu be willing to help the abuse?
Seeing that Wei Yi's expression was different, Xiang Zhuang knew that he had said it, and it was really like this to dare to be affectionate!
However, it is not easy to dispel Wei Yu's concerns.
In fact, the hatred between Daqin and Da Chu is indeed very deep, and it is not easy to resolve it, even if Xiang Zhuang is a general or even the king of Chu, it is difficult to eliminate the hatred between Qin and Chu, Xiang Zhuang He doesn't care about the hatred between Qin and Chu, but the soldiers under his command care very much, and the remnants of the pre-Qin Dynasty will not forget the blood debt owed by Xiang Yu in Guanzhong! ##########ps: Today, the momentum of Chu and Han is very good, and once rushed to the weekly list, which really surprised the swordsman, but the swordsman hopes more, this is not a flash in the pan, the swordsman hopes that Chu Han will be able to stay on the weekly list for a long time, and even rush to the list, please everyone!
