Back at the camp, Bai Yan tentatively said to Zhou Yafu: "General Zhou, if nothing else, the coalition army will definitely capture the four counties of Jibei, Linzi, Jiaodong and Langxi, so how to distribute these four counties, is it time to make a strategy?" lest it come to an end, because discord hurts one another's peace. ”

Han Ju also said: "In favor of it, it's time to make a strategy." ”

This is also the proper meaning of the question, originally there were only three counties, so there was nothing to say, one county per family, fair and reasonable, but now there is one more Lang evil county, then it has to be said.

Bai Yan said honestly and politely: "This time the joint forces are all in Qi, and my Da Zhao has sent the most troops, so there are more than a dozen counties under the jurisdiction of Langxi County, and my Da Zhao must at least share half of it." ”

"Why?" Han Ju said unhappily, "Before the troops were dispatched, the families had an agreement that the land, population, and goods obtained would be divided equally, and Langxie County must also be divided equally, so there is nothing to say." ”

"Nope." Bai Yan said categorically, "My Da Zhao sent the most troops, and it is unfair to be fair." ”

"Han Ju, is it possible that you want to be treacherous?" Han Ju Huo Ran got up, and his right hand had already reached the hilt of the sword.

"What, Han Ju, do you still want to kill people?" Bai Yan was not afraid, and also clenched the handle of the sword with his right hand.

Seeing that the two were about to clash, Zhou Yafu secretly scolded the two of them for being idiots, but he had to stand up and persuade: "Listen to the words of the general, how to divide Langxie County, I'm afraid it won't count when I say it, and I have to speak to the kings of each family, so the two of you should wait for the battle to end before discussing, okay?" ”

Bai Yan and Han Ju snorted at each other and sat back on the table.

Half a month later. When Xiang Zheng received the report of the flying cavalry and learned that the army and civilians led by Zhao Xi had entered Langxi County, Xiang Zhuang finally evacuated Linzi with 3,000 Chu troops.

The Chu army did not leave quietly at night, but chose to withdraw in the White Heaven Hall.

Looking at the whole team of Chu troops with a neat lineup out of the east gate of Linzi, and then marching towards Jimo along the spacious galloping road, Bai Yan suddenly turned his head to look at Zhou Yafu and said, "General Zhou." Are you really going to let Xiang Zheng and his 3,000 elite soldiers leave like this? Xiang Zheng is the crown prince of Chu State. ”

Bai Yan didn't mean to kill Xiang Zheng, he just wanted to take Xiang Zheng as a hostage.

In any case, Xiang Zheng is the crown prince of Chu State, if he can really capture Xiang Zheng as a hostage. It is undoubtedly extremely beneficial for Zhao and even the entire Lianheng Alliance.

Han Ju nodded again and again, he was also thinking the same way.

Zhou Yafu smiled. said: "I know what Brother Bai means, but it's not yet time to turn his face, at least until Langxie County takes it over, he can't rashly turn his face with Chu Jun." ”

Han Ju said coldly: "When I take over Langxie County, I'm afraid I won't have a chance." ”

"Do you both think so?" Zhou Yafu smiled and said, "That's right, both of them think so, then Chu Jun will definitely think so, but he prefers to do the opposite." Acting when the last opportunity is about to be lost, this is what the art of war calls surprise and unpreparedness, hehe. ”

The Chu army marched extremely fast, and on the evening of the eighth day, it had reached within twenty miles north of Juxian County.

Hearing that the Chu army was coming, the Han army besieging Juxian immediately retreated ten miles to the north and went down to the village. However, the deputy general of the Han army, Li Zhen, still personally led more than 100 rangers to cruise in the northern suburbs to monitor the movements of the Chu army.

Standing on the hill on the outskirts of Juxian County and looking down, you can faintly see the outline of the city of Juxian, the lights of the stars lit up in the city are even more clearly visible, just after the unitary hour, a winding torch dragon will drive along the gallop road in the north of Juxian County. Then he went straight into the north gate of Juxian County.

This torch long dragon was stretched extremely long, and Li Ji made a rough visual inspection, and its length was likely to exceed twenty miles, but the three thousand Chu army had such a long queue, obviously a single column march. ..., "It's strange, why did the Chu army pull the queue so long?" A small school asked suspiciously.

Li Yan was also confused, and he couldn't figure out what Chu Jun's intention was in doing this?

There was also a junior colonel who was eager to try and proposed: "General, the queue of the Chu army is so long, as long as we cut it off from the middle, the Chu army will inevitably fall into a difficult ......."

"Nope." Li Yan said categorically, "Do you know that the Chu army is not a plan to lure the enemy?" Moreover, the hussar general had strict orders, and without his orders, our army must not act rashly. "The hussar general in Li Jie's mouth is Zhou Yafu, because of the meritorious work of the war, Liu Heng, the king of Han, has just crowned Zhou Yafu as a hussar general.

Li Zhen's prudence is reasonable, Xiang Zheng, the prince of Chu, dares to make a long-distance attack on Linzi with 3,000 elite soldiers, and succeeds in one fell swoop, how can it be easy to match him? How could such a powerful character leave such obvious flaws? Therefore, it is likely that the Chu army deliberately left a flaw to lure the Han army to attack, and Li Yan didn't want to take this risk.

The little colonel said: "General, do you just let the Chu army enter Ju County?" ”

Li Xue said: "It's better for the Chu army to enter Ju County, hehe, it's easy for them to get in, but it's hard to come out again." ”

The north gate of Ju County.

Xiang Zheng turned over and dismounted, and Zang Yan had already hurried up with more than ten personal soldiers.

"Brother Xiang Zheng, you are here." Zang Yan looked at Xiang Zheng deeply and said, "Brother listens to you this time, Juxian doesn't want it, but you must take it back for your brother when you go back." ”

"Brother Tibet, don't worry, what the younger brother says must count." Xiang Zheng smiled and said, "Are you all ready?" ”

"Don't worry, brother, it's all ready." Zang Yan said, "A large number of Northern Mink scouts have been sent outside the East Gate, West Gate and South Gate, and it is simply wishful thinking for the Han army scouts to approach Ju County in three directions. After a pause, Zang Yan said again, "There are also Yan troops and Northern Mink troops in the city, which have also completed the assembly." ”

"Good." Xiang Zheng nodded happily, and then turned back and shouted: "Pass the order, extinguish the torches after the army enters the city, and then pass through the city of Juxian, and immediately set up, go out of the city from the south gate in the dark and continue south!" ”

Zang Yan also turned around and mounted his horse and gave the order to retreat to the Yan army assembled on the long street in the city.

The Han army scouts cruising outside the north gate and the Li Zhen on the hill focused all their attention on the Chu army brigade that was marching south outside the north gate, but they didn't expect that the south gate of Ju County had quietly opened in the dark night, and the Chu army that had just entered the city, as well as the Yan army and the northern mink army that were originally stationed in the city, had quietly left.

When he was about to leave the south gate of Juxian County, Xiang Zheng suddenly turned his horse and threw a cold smile at the night sky in the north, Zhou Yafu, haven't you already laid an ambush in front of you, this prince will not go forward, first give you a deception, and then kill a horse pistol, but to see who ambushed whom, hehe.

Zhou Yafu, who was roasting around the bonfire, suddenly shivered without warning, and the soldiers sitting next to him hurriedly took a big coat for Zhou Yafu, and said, "General, don't get cold." ”

Zhou Yafu waved his hand and said, "It's okay, General Ben is not so weak." ”

Bai Yan, who was sitting on the other side of the fire, said: "General Zhou, calculate the time, the Chu army should almost arrive in Ju County, but Brother Xia and Brother Han still don't know your clever calculation, general, now, can you talk about it?" ”

Zhou Yafu waved his hand and said indifferently: "I don't dare to be clever, in fact, to put it bluntly, it's nothing, this general is just secretly ordering Shen Tujia to lead five thousand elite soldiers over the mountains and mountains, and run to the road from Ju County to Lu County to set up an ambush, just last night, this general has received a flying report, Shen Tujia rushed to the junction of Lang Xie and Xue County. "...," it was like. Han Ju suddenly realized, "I said why did the general control the marching speed so slowly, dare to love This is just to paralyze the Chu army, in fact, the general has already secretly planted an ambush in front of him, powerful, really powerful." ”

Bai Yan said: "General Zhou, Shen Tujia's whereabouts won't be discovered, right?" and Gao Lang, who is stationed in Lu County, will he lead troops to the junction of Xue County and Langxie County to meet Xiang Zheng? ”

Zhou Yafu said with a smile: "General Bai doesn't have to worry, the fine work of the Black Ice Platform is closely monitoring Lu County, until yesterday, Gao Lang's army has been stationed in Lu County, and there has been no abnormal behavior." ”

"Hehe, very good." Bai Yan said happily, "In this way, Xiang Zheng can't escape this time." ”

Han Ju also said: "With Xiang Zheng as a hostage, the state of Chu will have to be a rat bogeyer from now on." ”

Fifty miles east of Juxian County, the Chu army, the Yan army and the Northern Mink cavalry were hurrying north along the barren mountains and mountains.

At this time, the eastern sky had slightly revealed the white of the fish's belly, Zang Yan walked all night in the dark, and when he looked up, he found that he seemed to be going north, and then caught up with Xiang Zheng out of breath, and said with a confused face: "Brother, the direction is wrong, Xue Jun should be in the west, but how did we go north?" ”

"Don't worry, brother, the direction is right." Xiang Zheng waved his hand and said, "Moreover, we won't go back to Xue County, we have to go back and ambush the coalition forces in the middle of the road." ”

"What? Ambush coalition forces? Zang Yan didn't react for a moment.

"Yes, ambush the coalition forces." Xiang Zheng shook his head slightly, "My master said, this is called a horse pistol." ”

"Back to the pistol?" Zang Yan looked at the Chu army, Yan army, and Northern Mink cavalry who were hurriedly following behind him, frowned, and said, "But there are seventy or eighty thousand coalition troops from Linzi to the south, and we are less than 10,000 people, can we ambush it?" ”

"There aren't that many coalition forces." Xiang Zheng waved his hand and said, "It is impossible for Zhou Yafu to bring the entire army into Langxi, if nothing else, he will bring a maximum of 30,000 horses." After a pause, Xiang Zheng said again, "Moreover, last night's deception was very successful, Zhou Yafu only said that we are still staying in Ju County, and I never thought that we would go around and ambush him." ”

"Well, that's right." After all, Zang Yan had also read a few military books, and nodded immediately, "The art of war is unexpected, and the attack is unprepared, Zhou Yafu categorically never thought that we would ambush them in the middle of the road, maybe this thing can really be done." ”

Xiang Zheng smiled and said; "Moreover, in order to paralyze us, the marching speed of the coalition forces is extremely slow, so we still have enough time to make arrangements in advance after we arrive at Tiger Leaping Canyon." Tiger Leaping Canyon is the only way for Jimo to go to Ju County, two mountains and one valley, the terrain is extremely dangerous, and it is also the ambush site selected by Xiang Zheng.
