That night, Xiang Zhuang did not stay in Changle Palace, but only occupied Xiao He's Prime Minister's Mansion.

As a traverser, Xiang Zhuang knows a famous saying, from thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift is difficult, now the Chu army does not protect the sword, the revival of the Chu State is also far away, and it is not the time to be greedy for pleasure? To be honest, Xiang Zhuang is not even very interested in the female sè now.

In the hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Xiang Zhuang, Wei Yu, and Wu Shi sat on the ground.

Xianyang has been captured by the Chu army, and the entire Guanzhong has opened its arms to the Chu army, let Jun take what he wants, and now it's time to listen to the follow-up plan of this old guy.

Wei Yu flicked his sleeves and said, "General, now our army has three major priorities!" ”

After that, Wei Yi stretched out another finger and said: "First, it is now early June, the summer grain in Guanzhong will be ripe, this batch of summer grain must be harvested, and it must not be left for Liu Bang, so there is no grain in Guanzhong, Liu Bang will have to transfer grain from Ba and Shu to feed Guanzhong, plus the millet in Taicang is all owned by me, then the Han army has no food, and it will not be able to carry out a large-scale campaign for at least two years." ”

Xiang Zhuang nodded heavily, this is a must, not a single grain of this year's summer grain can be left for Liu Bang Lao'er.

At that moment, Wu Shi said: "This is easy to do, send Xiao Kai and Tian Heng to the Qiao Xiang Han army to forcibly recruit!" ”

Wei Yu nodded, and said: "The second urgent task is to send troops to the Qiao Han army to loot the counties in Guanzhong, and then send an army to change back the clothes and armor of the Chu army, and pursue and suppress them from behind, so as to restore the reputation of the Chu army in Guanzhong."

This is mainly for the people of Guanzhong, and as for the wealthy families in Guanzhong, I am afraid that it will not be hidden.

However, even if this is the case, this thing still has to be done, whether it is useful or not, as long as it can find some trouble for Liu Bang, as long as it can drag Liu Bang's Hou Tui Chu army, you must go all out!

Wu Shi said again: "This can also be done by Xiao Kai and Tian Hengjun." ”

Wei Yi paused, his expression suddenly turned serious, and he said: "The third urgent and important thing is to worship the Mausoleum of the First Emperor and envelop all the powerful families in Guanzhong. ”

Before the Qin State unified the world, the Guanzhong clan was dominated by the old clans of the Qin State, but after Qin Shi Huang unified the world, a large number of Guandong wealthy families moved into Guanzhong one after another, and since then, the power pattern of the Guanzhong wealthy clan has become extremely complicated.

After the death of Qin, some of the noble and wealthy families disappeared.

Some wealthy families, such as the Ma family, were under Liu Bang's command.

However, there are still some wealthy families who are still in the opposition and are in the wait-and-see situation, and the reason why they are unwilling to rush into Liu Bang's command is that Liu Bang completely denied Qin Shi Huang and Qin Law, because these wealthy families have become accustomed to the laws of the Qin Empire, and it can be said that Qin Fa's loyal supporters will easily change their ways?

If Xiang Zhuang can really worship the Mausoleum of the First Emperor, it is undoubtedly a strong signal!

Wu Shi was furious when he heard this, if it weren't for Wei Yu being the military advisor of the Chu army, he was afraid that he would immediately look at each other angrily!

For the ancients, the mausoleum can not be worshiped casually, Wuqixiangzhuang is now the general of the Great Chu, and it is even possible to become the king of Chu in the future, how can he go to worship the Mausoleum of the First Emperor? Because in Wu She's view, Qin Chu is a feud, Chu general Xiang Yan died at the hands of Qin general Wang Jian, Xiang Zhuang is Xiang Yan's grandson, if he goes to worship the Mausoleum of the First Emperor, wouldn't he recognize the thief as his father?

If Wei Yu said this to Xiang Yu, he was afraid that he would have been thrown into the oil pot by Xiang Yu by now.

However, Xiang Zhuang was calm after hearing this, he originally admired the First Emperor very much, so for him, there was no psychological burden to worship the Mausoleum of the First Emperor.

And Xiang Zhuang also knows that the significance of worshipping the Mausoleum of the First Emperor is severe!

The Chinese people of the Central Plains worship their ancestors since ancient times, so the mausoleum of the temple has special significance, under normal circumstances, the emperors of the later dynasties are rarely worshiped by the mausoleum of the emperors of the previous dynasty who were replaced by them, in the feudal history of China for more than 2,000 years, this kind of thing seems to have happened only once, that is, the Ming filial piety mausoleum of the Kangxi Emperor of the Manchu Qing Dynasty to worship Zhu Yuanzhang.

When Kangxi worshiped the Ming Tomb, the Manchu Qing Dynasty had not seized the Han family for a long time, and the world had not yet returned to the heart, especially the Han scholars had not yet recognized the orthodoxy and legitimacy of the Manchu Dynasty, so Kangxi had to make this posture to show that the Manchus would not cut off the Han family's clothes, and use this to win the hearts of the Han scholars.

After that, the Manchu Dynasty lasted for more than two hundred years, far surpassing the Méng Yuan, which was also a foreign race in the Central Plains.

Although this is not all the credit of Kangxi's worship of the Ming Tomb, it is definitely an important factor that cannot be ignored!

Therefore, if Xiang Zhuang worships the Mausoleum of the First Emperor, it is undoubtedly announcing to the world that he Xiang Zhuang highly respects Qin Shi Huang, and the Great Chu led by him will also fully receive the clothes and laws of the Great Qin, which is undoubtedly a great excitement for those Guanzhong wealthy families who live in seclusion, and it is completely foreseeable that after the news spreads, all the wealthy families will definitely come to vote!

"No way!" Without waiting for Xiang Zhuang to express his position, Wu Shi categorically objected, "I firmly oppose it, the general must not worship the Mausoleum of the First Emperor, absolutely not!" ”

Xiang Zhuang was surprised, Wu She's attitude was a little beyond his expectations.

Wei Yi was silent, of course he knew that this move would lead to opposition from the old department of the Chu State under the general, but. Wei Yi knew that this was a key part of reversing the general trend of Chu and Han, and unceremoniously said that if Xiang Zhuang could not borrow the power of the old Qin relics, he would only rely on the remnants of the old Chu, but he would still not be able to compete with Liu Bang.

Seeing that Xiang Zhuang didn't speak, Wu Shi was anxious and said, "General, Qin Chu is a feud!" ”

Saying this, Wu Shi burst into tears and said: "As the general of the Great Chu State, how can you worship the tyrant of Qin Wangzheng?" This move is to cut off his own temple, and he is to recognize the thief as his father! ”

Xiang Zhuang sighed at the moment and looked at Wei Yu helplessly.

To be honest, the matter of worshiping the Mausoleum of the First Emperor is a thousand wishes, but it is difficult to persuade Wu Shi and other old Chu generals, especially the old Chu generals such as Cabinet Chu and Ji Bu, if it is not handled well and there is a mutiny, it will be a severe blow to the morale and morale of the Chu army, and it will also make Liu Bang see the joke.

Therefore, this matter cannot be forced, and whether it can be achieved depends on Wei Yu's eloquence.

Wei Yi fully understood Xiang Zhuang's embarrassment, and said to Wu Shi with vigor at the moment: "Mr. Wu She, the old man has a few questions that I want to ask you for, I don't know if I can?" ”

Wu Shi said in an unkind tone: "I would like to hear the military division." ”

For Wei Yu, Wu Shi is still respectful, but what Wei Yu said today about worshiping the Mausoleum of the First Emperor made Wu Shi very unhappy, in his opinion, Wei Yu is not fooling around? Who is Qin Wangzheng? That is the peerless tyrant who single-handedly destroyed the Great Chu State, let the general worship this tyrant, how can they be embarrassed by the remnants of the Chu State?

Wei Yu didn't care about Wu She's unkindness, and said with a smile: "Qin and Chu have enmity, but they are national enemies, right?" ”

Wu Shi was silent, and he did not deny this, Qin and Chu were indeed national enemies, not si enemies.

Wei Yu said again: "Since it is a national feud, now that the Qin Empire has perished, then there is no basis for the hatred between the Qin and Chu families, and the old man really doesn't understand, why should Mr. be so angry about an empire that has already perished?" Could it be that the general's worship of the imperial tomb will bring the first emperor back to life and restore the Qin Empire? ”

"Naturally not." Wu Shi frowned and said again. "But if you were a military advisor, would you go to the tomb of the enemy who killed your father?" Saying this, Wu Shi said again, "If the military advisor really worships the mausoleum of the enemy who killed his father, I don't know how your ancestor under the Nine Springs should feel?" ”

Wei Yu said: "Mr. is confusing the concept again, didn't I already say it just now, Qin Chu is a national enemy, not a si hate, so the analogy of Mr. is inappropriate." ，、

Wu Shi said: "Country, country, there is a country to have a home, a monarch's father, a monarch's father, a monarch's father, a monarch has a talented father, therefore, the country is a family, the monarch is the father, the Qin State destroyed the Chu State, that is, destroyed the homes of all the Chu people, that is, killed all the Chu people's father, this is not a common hatred, how can it be quietly brought over in a word?" ”

Wei Yu was dumbfounded, and he was far inferior to him in terms of strategy and martial arts, but in terms of eloquence, he was far worse than Wu She.

Seeing that Wei Yu was defeated by Wu Shi in two sentences, Xiang Zhuang couldn't help frowning, he was bound to worship the Mausoleum of the First Emperor, this is not only to envelop the old Qin relics, but also to lay the groundwork for the vigorous implementation of the cultivation and warfare system in the future.

When Ping Xiangzhuang turned around and shouted, "Jin Xiang." ”

Jin Xiangda stepped inside and arched his hand: "What does the general command?" ”

Xiang Zhuang said: "Immediately send the flying horse to Hangu Pass, and order Huan Chu and Ji Bu to come to Xianyang immediately, and the army under his command will be temporarily led by Sima Pang Yu of the trapped camp." "Just this morning, more than 6,000 remnants of Huan Chu and Ji Bu and more than 200 veterans of Pang Yu have retreated to Hangu Pass, and the news of Jing Qian's death has also been reported, making Xiang Zhuang feel sorry.

"No!" Jin Xiang suddenly agreed, and when he turned to leave, Xiang Zhuang said again, "Wait a minute." ”

Jin Xiang turned back in surprise, and Xiang Zhuang said again: "Send someone to inform the two generals Xiao Kai and Tian Heng again, and order them to enter the city immediately." ”

Jin Xiang promised again and took the order.

The fire burned for two days and nights, and was finally extinguished after a rainstorm.

Liu Bang's army then drove into Sanchuan County, but what appeared in front of Liu Bang was already a dilapidated Sanchuan County, a large number of cities and towns were destroyed, countless houses were destroyed by dreams, the people were displaced, ten rooms and nine empty, surrounded by fleeing hungry people, what made Liu Bang Dahuo puzzled was that after these hungry people saw the Han army, they were full of hatred.

Luoyang City has also been reduced to ruins, Lu Ze hoarded corn in the cang, the arsenal in the arsenal, was either robbed by the Chu army or burned in the fire, now, even the supply of hundreds of thousands of troops has become a problem, I can't say, I can only forcibly collect grain from the surrounding counties of Sanchuan County.
