Seven days later, the pontoon bridge was erected.

After handing over 5,000 pack horses, 5,000 stone corn, and 100,000 catties of bacon to the Liang army, Liang Junguo then retreated thirty miles to make way for the Baimajin ferry, and the Chu army immediately crossed the river in a big way, stopped at the south bank of the river, and then followed the route drawn by the Liang army, and went straight to the completely abandoned Daliang, after which it would go straight down the Jiujiang River along the chasm.

Looking at the huge horse team of the Chu army, the eyes of Liu Kou, the general of the Liang State, were green.

However, envy is envy, Liu Kou did not dare to have any rash persuasion, before the pontoon bridge was erected, the Liang army relied on the river water and natural danger, and still had the opportunity to carry out a half-crossing attack on the Chu army, and now the Chu army has crossed the river with the whole division, and the Liang army of the Hedong battalion alone will definitely not be able to stop the Chu army, unless Peng Yue mobilizes all the troops.

However, at that time, the Chu army was afraid that he would have left Jiujiang long ago.

People are cavalry, how can two legs run more than four legs?

##########

When the Chu army went straight down the Jiujiang River along the chasm, the news that the Qin King Yuxi had arrived in Han Xin's hands finally spread, not only Huainan Wang Yingbu, Jiujiang County Shou Zhou Yin, and Hengshan King Wu Rui knew the news, but Liu Bang, who was far away in Guanzhong, knew that Xiang Zhuang had bought a passage with Qin Wang Yuxi and horse grain, and was about to return to Jiangdong.

In the Yongshou Hall of Changle Palace, Liu Bang was furious, because he was in a bad mood, and even reprimanded his favorite Mrs. Qi fiercely, Xiao He, Zhang Liang, and Chen Ping Yuguan entered the Yongshou Palace, Mrs. Qi's big eyes were still red, obviously she had just cried, and in front of the three of them, Liu Bang directly blasted Mrs. Qi away.

"I'm going to kill Han Xin, I'm going to kill Han Xin, a scoundrel!" Liu Bang roared, waving his hands viciously, and accidentally exposed the two dry claws covered by his sleeves, which were crawling with earthworm-like green tendons, and Liu Bang's face was also blue and gloomy, obviously the recent indulgence in wine was about to empty his body bones.

Xiao He, Zhang Liang, and Chen Ping couldn't help frowning, the world is undecided, and the King of Han is already addicted to wine, which is not a good thing for the Great Han Kingdom, it seems that we have to find a time to remind the Great King, let him stay away from the wine, and regain his strength, otherwise, the future and fate of the Great Han Kingdom will be worried.

After roaring for a long time, Liu Bang turned his head and yelled at Xiao He: "Xiao He, no matter what method you use, immediately raise 100,000 stone military rations for the widow, and the widow wants to personally raise 200,000 troops to fight against Han Xin, the jade seal is a widow, and it was snatched from the widow by Xiang Yu's husband in the first place, Han Xin'er has the jade seal, and he dares to keep it privately?!" ”

Xiao He smiled bitterly, not to mention 100,000 stone of military rations, he can't take out 10,000 stones now.

Zhang Liang sighed and persuaded in a quiet voice: "King, are you sure that you can win against Han Xin?" ”

"I ......" Liu Bang was speechless for a long time before he said, "If you can't win, you have to fight, Lao Tzu can't swallow this breath, Han Xin Xiaoer, if it wasn't for the widow who appreciated him, raised him, built an altar to worship the general, gave him soldiers, gave him a general, and let him go to the Northern Expedition to Han Zhao Yan Qi Daiguo, how could he have today?" This ungrateful villain! ”

Xiao He shook his head and said disapprerovingly: "King, after all, this is just a rumor, if King Qi really got the jade seal, why has there been no news from Cao Shen and Wang Ling so far?" ”

"This is not a rumor!" Liu Bang Huoran raised his hand and said categorically, "I still know about Lao Peng's personality, he said that the jade seal has been in the hands of Han Xin, and the jade seal must be in the hands of Han Xin. ”

Zhang Liang and Chen Ping also bowed their heads slightly, and the jade seal was afraid that it had really fallen into the hands of King Qi.

As for the tomb of King Cao Shen, it has been shaken, after all, the two are now Han Xin's courtiers.

Zhang Liang groaned slightly, stepped forward and said, "King, do you still remember that King Qi had just killed Tian Guang and asked for the title of King of Qi on the table?" ”

Liu Bangdao: "Why don't you remember, if you hadn't stopped Chen Ping at the beginning, Lao Tzu would ......"

Liu Bang's voice suddenly stopped, and he immediately understood the meaning of Zhang Liang's words.

At the beginning, Han Xin asked for the title of leave King of Qi, whether Liu Bang allowed it or not, he was determined to be the king of Qi, but Han Xin obviously couldn't break free from the shackles of morality, so he asked for the title of leave King of Qi, if Liu Bang agreed, of course it was good, if Liu Bang didn't agree, then Liu Bang took the initiative to tear his face, and he Han Xin didn't have to bear the infamy of ingratitude. …,

Now that Han Xin has won the jade seal, he keeps it a secret, and he doesn't want to take the initiative to tear his face with Liu Bang.

If Liu Bang sent someone to ask for it at this time, or sent troops to crusade against Qi State, it would be Liu Bang who took the initiative to tear his face, and then Han Xin would be able to raise troops to fight back against Liu Bang with peace of mind, and even ...... Directly call the emperor! In short, Han Xin will not take the initiative to destroy the relationship between him and Liu Bang, let alone take the initiative to provoke a war, but if Liu Bang makes a move, Han Xin will never be soft.

The anger in Liu Bang's chest gradually subsided, and he said in a muffled voice at the moment: "Ovary, what do you mean, let the widow pretend to be deaf and dumb, and pretend not to know what to do?" ”

Zhang Liang said: "Unless the king just wants to be the king of Guanzhong." ”

Xiao He and Chen Ping next to him also pricked up their ears in an instant, they all wanted to hear what Liu Bang would say?

Liu Bang's political understanding is absolutely unmatched, this old man immediately felt the strange atmosphere in the Yongshou Palace, and immediately pulled out his sword, and cut the table in front of him into two, and said sharply: "How can a husband be at peace with what he encounters?" When the three-foot sword is raised, the million divisions are commanded, the world is swept away, and the four seas are swallowed! ”

"That's a good point." Xiao He praised, "King, it should be so!" ”

Zhang Liang and Chen Ping also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that the ambition of the King of Han has not been completely extinguished, as long as the ambition of the King of Han is still there, everything is not a problem! Although Guanzhong is embarrassed at the moment, the situation will change in three years at most, and it will be completely changed, as for these three years, it is just right to build a strong cavalry army!

Liu Bang seems to have been really stimulated, or he already knows that if he indulges in wine like this again, not only will his body collapse, but he is afraid that even Xiao, Zhang, Chen and other ministers will also deviate from morality, and then said: "The widow has decided, I will move out of Changle Palace tomorrow, go to the Longxi camp, and share weal and woe with the cavalry soldiers!" ”

"The king is wise!" Xiao He, Zhang Liang, and Chen Ping gave up at the same time.

Pengcheng, Huainan Palace.

In the dead of night, Huainan Wang Yingbu and the country's prime minister, Kuaiche, were not sleepy.

In the middle of last year, Huainan Wang Yingbu listened to Kuaicher's suggestion, took advantage of the opportunity of the Han army to return to Guanzhong, decisively sent troops, and seized Xue County, Donghai County and Surabaya County from the Han army.

Kui Che said: "King, I really didn't expect Xiang Zhuang to come back so quickly!" ”

"yes." Yingbu nodded, and muttered, "The widow thought that it would be impossible for Xiang Zhuang to return to the Central Plains, but I didn't expect that it would be less than half a year before he came back, and he also brought back tens of thousands of cavalry, which is unbelievable!" How did this guy do it? ”

Kui Che said: "King, as soon as Xiang Zhuang comes back, the pressure on our Huainan Kingdom will be great. ”

If Xiang Zhuang returns to Jiangdong with a large army, once he successfully integrates the old Chu department in Jiangdong, he will definitely use troops abroad, then Jiujiang or Huainan, which is only separated by a river from Jiangdong, will become the first target of the Chu army.

Ying said: "Prime Minister, are you a little worried? Even if Xiang Zhuang returned to Jiangdong, he may not be able to control the old Chu Department of Jiangdong, the current situation in Jiangdong is complicated, but it is difficult to say, Xiang Guan and Xiang Tuo are each based on one side, and no one is convinced by anyone. ”

Kui Che said: "The problem is that the two counties of Donghai and Surabaya under the rule of the king are not peaceful, the scholars of these two counties are still oriented to the old Chu, and it is not easy to make these scholars return to their hearts in a short period of time, if Xiang Zhuang integrates Jiangdong before these scholars return to their hearts, then our Huainan Kingdom will be in trouble." ”

Ying Bu said: "Then what do you say to do? Could it be that troops were sent to intercept and kill Xiang Zhuang? ”

Kui Che shook his head and said: "It is definitely not possible to send troops to intercept and kill, let's not talk about whether we can win the war, even if we can win, I am afraid that my Huainan army will also hurt my muscles and bones, and the situation will be difficult to clean up at that time!" After saying this, Kui Che said, "I think that the king might as well add another fire to make the situation in Jiangdong even more complicated!" ”

"Oh?" Ying preached, "How to add to the fire, how to make the situation in Jiangdong more complicated?" ”

Kui Che stroked the short beard under his chin and said in a low voice: "You have forgotten, the king, there is still a prisoner in the Pengcheng prison." ”

"Prisoners?" Ying Bu said confusedly, "There are hundreds of prisoners in Pengcheng Prison, which one did you say?" ”

Kui Che said: "It is Xiang He, the magistrate of Surabaya County in Chu, this person has a very high status in the Xiang clan and is also prestigious, if the king sends him back to Jiangdong, the situation in Jiangdong will become more complicated!" In this way, after Xiang Zhuang returned to Jiangdong, if he wanted to control the overall situation, he would inevitably have to make greater efforts and take a longer time. ”

"Wonderful, wonderful!" Yingbu slammed the knot, looked up again and shouted, "Someone! ”

Some of the soldiers had already entered the room and said, "What does the king command?" ”

"Go." Yingbu waved his hand and said loudly, "Immediately release the old Chu Surabaya County Governor Xiang from the prison, bathe him and change his clothes, change into clean clothes, and send five hundred elite soldiers to escort him back to Jiangdong!" ”

"Whoa!" The soldiers agreed and took the order...... ）
