"What?" After listening to the urgent report of the servant, Liu Heng couldn't believe his ears, "Zhang Ao, the king of Zhao, has abdicated, and the Chu army has been stationed in Handan?" Zhao Guo's general Bai Xuan was also killed?! ”

Dou Yifang, who was accompanying Liu Heng, was also shocked.

That's too much of a change, isn't it? A few days ago, I just heard that the Chu army was in trouble in Hebei, and was forced to retreat to Ye County by the bloody battle of Zhao State.

"This, this can't be." Liu Heng's face turned pale and he muttered, "It must be the Black Ice Platform that made a mistake." ”

The chamberlain bowed and retreated, Dou Yifang looked at Liu Heng, who had become a little nervous, and persuaded softly: "King, such a big change has happened in the Zhao Kingdom, which will inevitably lead to a complete reversal of the entire battle situation, and the current consideration is no longer to contain the Chu State to rescue the Zhao State, but how to protect the Han Dynasty, or quickly recall the Prime Minister from Hanzhong." ”

"Yes, if it weren't for the queen's reminder, the widow would have almost missed a big thing." When Liu Heng heard this, he woke up like a dream, and immediately wrote a letter in his hand, and urgently ordered the inner servant Fu and the imperial forest guard to be sent to Hanzhong in an expedited manner of 800 miles...... A few days later, the palace of the king of Chu in Luoyang.

Although it was late at night, the study was still brightly lit.

Xiang Zhuang, the king of Chu, Bi Shu, the general Bi Shu, the Taishi Baili Xian, Ling Yin Xiang He, the Taiwei Xiang Tuo, Huan Chu, Ji Bu, Zhong Liwu and Yu Ziqi and other Che Marquis all gathered together, and they all blushed and looked excited.

In the past few days, the good news has been continuous, first the crown prince Xiang Zheng used the two million people of Zhao Di as a threat. Forcing the cowardly Zhao king Zhang Ao to take the initiative to abdicate, after Zhang Jing inherited the throne, he immediately tore up the Lianheng alliance and joined the Hezhong Alliance, and Zhang Jing's foundation was unstable, in order to suppress the domestic opposition, he took the initiative to invite the Chu army to settle in Handan City.

A few days ago, Prince Xiang Zheng's 100,000-strong army entered Handan without much effort.

Followed by. Zhao Guozuo's general Zhao Deng, with the help of Xuan Yiwei, successfully killed Bai Xuan, who had just broken the Yan army, and most of the 100,000 Zhao army surrendered to Zhang Jing, while the rest collapsed. The situation in Zhao was quickly pacified.

The most surprising thing is that Yan Wang Zangtu also coughed up blood and died on the halfway to the end, and more than 200,000 Yan troops were defeated by the Zhao army in Yuyang. In addition, the Yan prince Zangyan had died in Anqiu, Jiaodong before Zang Di, and the grandson of Yan was still in infancy, and the power of the Yan Kingdom suddenly fell into the control of the Montessori father and son.

Immediately afterwards, Han Xin, the king of Han, sent another envoy and expressed his willingness to join the alliance!

In less than ten days, the general trend of the world has changed sharply from the initial chaos to the sharp tilt of the Chu State, and now the time is ripe for a large-scale attack on the Han Dynasty, and the battle between Chu and Han, which has lasted for more than 20 years, is finally going to be divided!

"King, the time is ripe for a large-scale attack on Han!" Bai Lixian pointed to the map in front of him with the feather fan in his hand. Lang said, "The minister has two strategies for the king to refer to." ”

"First, the troops of Jiangdong, Jingxiang, and Bashu were gathered, and then the troops of Korea, Zhao, Yan, Wei, Qi, and Beimink were gathered. With the momentum of thunder, he attacked Tongguan and went straight into the pass. ”

"The advantage of this strategy is that it can concentrate the absolute superiority of the forces, complete its work in one battle at Tongguan, and completely destroy the Han army, so as to preserve the vitality of Guanzhong as much as possible, which is conducive to the recovery of the land of Sanqin as soon as possible; The disadvantage is that the Han army can defend the pass by virtue of the Xiongguan, and our army will inevitably pay several times the heavy price of the Han army when attacking from the front. ”

"Second, the soldiers are divided into ten ways and attack Han from all directions at the same time!"

The voice fell. A whisper suddenly sounded in the upper study.

Obviously, the civil officials and generals present were all shocked by Bai Lixian's "Ten Roads of Han", Xiang Zhuang was also a little curious, and waved his hand to suppress everyone's whispers, and motioned Bai Lixian to continue. …,

Bai Lixian smiled slightly, and then said: "The first way is the main force of the Han Dynasty, and the general will lead 200,000 troops to attack Hanzhong; On the second road, Wei Guogong Gao Chu led 50,000 troops to attack Tongguan; On the third road, the son of Xiangzhi led 20,000 Shu soldiers out of Jinniu Pass and flanked Hanzhong; On the fourth road, Pang Zheng, the captain of the Qiang school, led 20,000 soldiers from the Qiang Mansion to attack Longxi; On the fifth road, the Duke of Qin led the Northern Mink cavalry out of the fortress and attacked Jiuyuan from Yangshan to the south; On the sixth road, Prince Xiang Zheng led 50,000 troops, crossed the Huguan Pass, attacked Linjin through Puhan, and threatened the side of Tongguan; The seventh road is the Han army, which hits the county through the stone; The eighth road Yan and Zhao coalition army, through the Yanmen to hit the clouds; The ninth road is the water army, tracing the river and Weishui to knock Xianyang to intercept the grain road of the Han army; The tenth road is the Yue's people, which can make them flank the northland! ”

There was silence, and the whole upper study suddenly became deathly silent, so quiet that a pin could be heard.

Xiang Zhuang and Bi Shu were silent, and the rest of Xiang Tuo, Xiang He, Huan Chu and other civil and military ministers were dumbfounded, and they all looked at Baili Xian with extremely surprised eyes, the situation was like looking at a monster, the king usually said that the Taishi was wise, and the strong captives were wiped out when they talked and laughed, and they didn't believe it much, but today they believe it.

No, Taishi just moved his mouth, and the earth-shattering layout of the Ten Roads Felling Han appeared!

The Ten Route Army marched hand in hand, attacking the Han State from different directions, and Bai Mo, the prime minister of the Han State, was absolutely difficult to parry even if he had the ability to reach the sky...... Xianyang, Weiyang Palace.

Zhou Guanfu strode forward with his sword, pointed to the map hanging on the wooden frame and said to Bai Mo: "Prime Minister, according to the information provided by the Black Ice Platform, the soldiers of Jiangdong, Bashu and Jingxiang counties under the rule of Chu are all massing on a large scale, and the people of Korea, Zhao, Yan and the Yue clan in the west are also secretly gathering troops and horses, which seems to be a bad move. ”

Liu Hengda, the king of Han, was shocked and said, "Why did the people of the Yue clan also get involved with the Chu State?" ”

Zhao State and South Korea have betrayed the alliance and defected to Chu State, this is nothing new, now, the Chu army has already divided its troops into Wuzhong, Handan and Anyi, Han, Zhao, and Yan have actually become vassals of Chu State, so these three countries will send troops to attack Han, Liu Heng is not surprised, but the Yue people are a little beyond his expectations.

Bai Mo, who was sitting down, sighed and said: "The people of the Yue clan will collude with the Chu State, as early as the minister's expectation, the Great Han Kingdom is about to usher in an unprecedented crisis, whether it is life or death, it is all here to fight." ”

Liu Heng's expression was pale, and he said in a trembling voice: "Father, the situation is like this, how to deal with it?" ”

Bai Mo got up and walked to the wooden frame, pointed to the map and said: "King, Han, Yan, and Zhao are forced by the pressure of Chu State, even if they send troops, they may not do their best, don't worry, the Yue's people are close to the side of the couch, and the threat is great, but the minister has ordered people to build beacon towers all over the west of the river, so that the hussar general can lead 30,000 cavalry to the north, and the Yue's people will break it." ”

Liu Heng chin lightly, but Zhou Yafu frowned and said, "Prime Minister, the last general wants to guard Shangjun." ”

More than two months ago in Qidi, Zhou Yafu suffered losses again and again under the hands of Xiang Zhi, the prince of Chu, which led to filthy problems within the Lianheng Alliance because of uneven distribution, which led to the Korean betrayal of the alliance not long ago, the Korean betrayal of the alliance, the Han State lost the largest barrier in the east at once, and the counties of Jiuyuan, Yunzhong and Shangjun were directly exposed to the enemy's troops.

The reason why the external environment of the Han Kingdom has become so bad today is that Zhou Yafu has to bear a lot of responsibility.

After Zhou Yafu returned to China, Liu Heng, the king of Han, and Bai Mo, the prime minister, were not harsh, but the more this was the case, the more guilty Zhou Yafu became, and he had a strong idea of washing away the shame in his heart.

"Nope." Bai Mo shook his head categorically and said, "With your current mentality, it is not suitable to fight against Xiang Zheng." ”…,

"Prime Minister!" Zhou Yafu was anxious when he heard this, and Bai Modeng couldn't help but say, "You don't need to say more, your task is to guard Hexi, and you must not let a Yueshi Hu ride enter the north." After a pause, Bai Mo said to Liu Heng again, "King, as for the defense of Linjin, the minister thinks that it is better to hand it over to General Li Zuoche." ”

Since Li Zuoche returned to Guanzhong sixteen years ago, he has lost Liu Bang's trust, and has been idle at home since then, even if it is the battle of Chu, Li Zuoche did not go out with the army, but Bai Mo knows that Li Zuoche is still loyal, and Lao Cheng is quite strategic, and it can be said that he is the best candidate to guard Linjin and meet Xiang Zheng.

"According to the Prime Minister's proposal, the old general Li Zuoche will guard Linjin." Liu Heng paused, and then said, "However, most of the army of Xiang Zheng, the prince of Chu, is just a partial division, and the few people think that the main force of the Chu army that fights the Han must be Tongguan and Hanzhong, but I don't know what the father of Xiang has to deal with?" ”

Bai Mo said: "The king is wise, and the minister also thinks that the Chu army that invades Tongguan and Hanzhong is its main force, and the minister can assert that the leader of the army to attack Hanzhong must be the minister's brother Bishu, Hanzhong is the biggest barrier in Guanzhong, and if Hanzhong is lost, Guanzhong will die, so the minister is determined to personally lead the army to Hanzhong to meet it." ”

"As for Tongguan, it is a place to protect Xianyang, and it is not enough to defend it if it is not a peerless general." Speaking of this, Bai Mo set his eyes on Zhou Guanfu again, and then said, "Tongguan will ask the champion Hou." ”

Zhou Guanfu immediately bowed his hand and said: "Prime Minister rest assured, as long as I, Zhou Guanfu, still have a breath of air, I will never let a Chu soldier cross Tongguan!" ”

Liu Heng let out a long sigh of relief.

Bai Mo said again: "The king, compared to Hanzhong and Tongguan, the minister is actually more worried about Jiuyuan!" ”

Liu Heng's heart instantly rose again, and he said hurriedly: "Father, will Jiuyuan also be attacked?" ”

Bai Mo nodded and said, "Even if the Han, Yan, and Zhao armies invade Yunzhong and Shangjun, the ministers are not worried at all, but if the Northern Mink cavalry crosses Yangshan and traps Jiuyuan from Mobei, they can go straight to Xianyang." After a pause, Bai Mo said again, "After all, the situation of the Northern Sable Kingdom is different from that of Yan, Zhao, and Korea, and the Northern Sable General Meng Yan is simply the general of the Chu State!" ”

Liu Hengda exclaimed: "Father, if Meng Zhen really leads the Northern Mink cavalry from Jiuyuan to enter the fortress, and you can gallop under Xianyang City in ten days along the straight road, how can this be good?" ”

Bai Mo sighed and said, "King, I can't say that I can only lure the wolf into the room." ”rq
