。 Chapter 316: Candidate for the Crown Prince

When the sky was dark, the Chu army finally retreated a stone's throw and fell into a confrontation with the Han army. Templar

In the rear of the Han army, Bai Mo came to Zhou Guanfu's stretcher surrounded by dozens of soldiers, and when he saw Bai Mo, Zhou Guanfu struggled to get up and salute, but was stopped by Bai Mo.

Zhou Guanfu was hit by the poisonous crossbow of the Chu army, and the poison crossbow was extremely toxic, fortunately, Bai Mo also dabbled in the doctor, and the medical skills were quite clever, after his emergency rescue and personal drug use, Zhou Guanfu finally saved a small life, but in a short period of time, don't want to stand up, let alone go into battle to kill the enemy.

patted Zhou Guanfu on the shoulder, Bai Mo said, "Shengzhi, you go back to Nanzheng to recuperate first." ”

Zhou Guanfu nodded, and said with some concern: "Zuo Xiang, the Chu army on the opposite side are all elite veterans who have experienced a hundred battles, and they are well-equipped, if we continue to confront each other like this, our army will inevitably be defeated in the end?" ”

Bai Mo smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, Shengzhi, the original phase already has a countermeasure." ”

Zhou Guanfu breathed a sigh of relief, and was escorted by one hundred and ten personal soldiers at the moment, and returned to Nanzheng overnight to recuperate from his injuries.

Seeing Zhou Guanfu's stretcher leave, Bai Mocai instructed his entourage and said: "Pass the order, let Captain Li lead two thousand Hanzhong county soldiers to withdraw to the Sword Pavilion overnight and set up an ambush on the cliffs on both sides of the Sword Pavilion." After saying this, Bai Mo said again, "By the way, there is also that path, let Captain Li not forget to send troops to guard it to prevent the Chu army from sneaking attack." ”

"Whoa!" The pro-soldiers responded with a bang and took the order immediately.

Bai Mo thought about it, and felt a little uneasy, and instructed another personal soldier: "Spread another military order, the whole army is not allowed to disarm, and the left and right departments take turns to rest, beware of the Chu army sneaking up at night!" ”

A few miles away, more than 2,000 Chu troops were also resting and eating quietly in the night. (《》)

Tired is tired, but not exhausted, although it is said that the Han army fought for a whole day, but every time the Chu army directly faced with the Han army, there were only dozens of Liao Liao people, until the soldiers in front of them were physically exhausted, and the soldiers behind had the opportunity to step forward to take over, and after a day of fierce fighting, many soldiers had not even fought with the Han army head-on.

Bai Mo thought about calculating the Chu army, and Pang Yu also thought about calculating the Han army.

Just got the quick horse urgent report, although the king was ambushed in the Sword Pavilion, and the Heavenly Wolf Guard was also killed and injured, but the king himself and General Huyan were safe and sound, which made Pang Yu afraid but also lucky, if the king was unfortunately folded in the Sword Pavilion, I really don't know what would become of Da Chu?

More than 100 of the most fierce colonels have gathered around Pang Yu, Pang Yu ordered to collect all the liquor and dried meat in the army, drank and chattered for these 100 colonels, and then said: "Everyone, whether you can win the battle of the Golden Bull Road, whether Hanzhong can be won, whether Da Chu can defeat the Han State, it all depends on you!" ”

One hundred and ten elementary schools bowed their hands in unison and said solemnly: "We are willing to die for Da Chu!" ”

"Okay, you are worthy of being my great Chu's son!" Pang Yu struck the knot, and pointed to the cliffs on both sides, "When the time comes, you will climb the cliff, follow the cliff to copy the back road of the Han army, and after the army attacks from the front, you will kill from the back road, and spread rumors while slashing and killing, saying that the general Huan Chu has led 100,000 troops through Fangling and the second half of the pass, and entered Hanzhong, and you are on the orders of General Huan Chu to come to respond!" ”

"Whoa!" One hundred and ten elementary schools responded with a bang, and they all went down to prepare.

Pang Yu ordered again: "The rest of the soldiers, hurry up and sleep after a full meal!" ”

Langzhong County, county government.

Xiang Zhuang had a full meal, and took a hot bath happily, which would have completely recovered his spirits, and was sitting in the hall talking to Baili Xian. The latest chapter of the Templar

Bai Lixian arrived in the evening. ..., after Bai Lixian asked Pang Yu to lead the army to meet him, he still felt uneasy, and handed over the army to his brother Bai Li Mao temporarily, and he came up with two thousand elite soldiers day and night.

"The King." Bai Lixian shook the feather fan and said very sincerely, "In the future, you can't risk your life again." ”

Xiang Zhuang thought so, and said abruptly: "Ziliang, don't worry, from now on, the widow will never make such a mistake again!" ”

After a pause, Xiang Zhuang said again: "Ziliang, do you say that the widow should consider canonizing the crown prince?" "When the Sword Pavilion was ambushed, Xiang Zhuang didn't feel anything, but now that he thinks about it, he is secretly frightened, if Tang Tong didn't accompany him, if there was no path behind the rock crack leading to the back of the mountain, if he died in the Sword Pavilion, what would happen to the Chu State?

The catastrophe of the Sword Pavilion, he was lucky to escape, but the world is impermanent, who knows if he Xiang Zhuang will suddenly die one day? Today's Chu State, his Xiang Zhuang's royal power has been extremely consolidated, as long as he Xiang Zhuang is alive, the Chu State is worry-free, once he Xiang Zhuang is dead, and the crown prince is not canonized, Chu State is only afraid that it will immediately fall into civil strife!

The reason is clear, the Minister of Chinese and Wu of the State is extremely divided on the choice of the crown prince.

Xiang Tuo, Xiang He, Huan Chu, Ji Bu and other old Chu ministers all liked Xiang Zheng, the eldest son of the eldest son, but the Qin generals such as Baili Mao, Zicheshi, and Xi Qilie thought that Xiang Shu's talent far exceeded that of Xiang Zheng, and he should become the prince of the Great Chu State.

The battle for the crown prince is mainly the competition between Xiang Zheng, Xiang Shu, and Xiang Wang, but Bai Lixian and Bi Shu, the two most vocal princes, have never expressed their attitude.

Baili Xian said thoughtfully: "The prince is the prince of the country, and the state-owned prince is stable, and the minister thinks that he should be established." ”

"Okay." Xiang Zhuang asked again, "Ziliang thinks that among the widow's seven sons, which one can be the prince?" ”

Baili Xian was silent when he heard this, and it was a long silence, he raised his hands in favor of the crown prince, but he could let him say the candidate for the prince, but he was unwilling, the dispute between the prince was not only a state affair, but also a family affair of the emperor, which was very implicated, Bai Lixian did not want to get involved rashly, not to mention that he was also the eldest brother of Mrs. Baili, the uncle of Xiang Shu and Xiang Yong, and he had to avoid suspicion.

Xiang Zhuang said sincerely: "Ziliang, now I am not a gentleman, and you are not a minister, we are friends, and the heart-to-heart conversation between friends should always be frank, right?" As a friend, who do you think should be canonized as the crown prince? ”

Baili Xian muttered: "Since the king is so honest, the minister can only say it in vain, the minister thinks that the prince and the power of the prince are not the posture of the king, if the situation is good to guide and teach, the son can be a good general, the power of the son can be the prime minister, the son of the government, the son of the art has their own strengths, the rest of the sons, the age is still young, the minister does not dare to speak." ”

Xiang Zhuang nodded silently, as the crown prince, Bai Lixian's opinion was undoubtedly quite pertinent.

Xiang Zhi and Xiang Quan are indeed not like personal monarchs, although Xiang Zheng's qualifications are mediocre, but he is generous and benevolent, once the Great Chu can really dominate the world, Xiang Zheng's succession to the throne will undoubtedly be able to soothe the wounds brought to China by the Unification War, and the Great Chu Empire will probably not repeat the mistakes of the Great Qin, and it will perish in only the second century.

As for Xiang Shu, it is the most intelligent and scheming one of the sons, people often say that three years old to see the young, seven years old to see the old, although Xiang Shu is only ten years old, but it can already be seen that most of the future will become a hero, if in his lifetime Xiang Zhuang can not dominate the whole of China, then Xiang Shu is undoubtedly the best candidate for the monarch of Chu State.

In other words, the choice of politics or Xiang Shu depends on whether he can dominate China in his lifetime! ..., that is to say, Dingzhuang still can't rashly decide on the candidate for the prince, and he still has to continue to look forward.

Sighing, Xiang Zhuang took out a bag from his arms and handed it to Baili Xiandao: "Ziliang, this bag hides a secret edict of the widow, if the widow establishes the prince in his lifetime, then this secret edict will naturally be invalidated, if the widow has not come to canonize the prince and suffers misfortune, this secret edict is the widow's edict!" ”

Bai Lixian hurriedly knelt down and sat up, and arched his hand: "The king, the qualifications of the ministers are still shallow, so don't dare to take on this important task......"

"Ziliang, you don't have to refuse." Xiang Zhuang waved his hand and said, "In addition to your bag, the widow will also prepare a bag for the general, Ling Yin, General Wei, General Mo and others, and the content of the secret edict in these bags is the same. ”

"The King." Bai Lixian took the bag with trepidation.

Xiang Zhuang smiled slightly, and quipped: "But Ziliang, you don't have to worry, the widow is a few years younger than you, maybe the widow hasn't left when you leave, this secret edict is just prepared." ”

Bai Lixian said with a smile: "The king is prosperous in the Spring and Autumn Period, so he naturally has to live longer than his ministers. ”

"Okay, after the matter of the prince is over, let's talk about the war in Hanzhong." Xiang Zhuang rubbed his hands and said, "Now Ziang is confronting Han Prime Minister Bai Mo on the Golden Bull Road, Bai Mo and Xuejian are both descendants of Guigu, it is not easy for Zi Ang to win, and the widow wants to send an elite soldier out of the Sword Pavilion from the small road and copy the back road of the Han army, what does the military advisor think?" ”

Bai Lixian muttered: "This path has been known to the Han army, and the Han army will definitely be on guard, and our army wants to go out of the Sword Pavilion from this path and copy the back road of the Han army, but I am afraid that it will not be easy." Saying this, Bai Lixian said again, "However, Bai Mo's troops are not many, so he has to deal with Ziang's frontal attack and the sneak attack from the flank, so it is inevitable to take care of one and lose the other, and the minister thinks it is okay." ”

Xiang Zhuang got up immediately and shouted, "Huyan! ”

In the sound of heavy footsteps, the tower-like figure of Huyan had already strode into the lobby, standing under the hall and bowing his hand to Xiang Zhuang, and suddenly responded: "The end will be!" "In the battle of the Sword Pavilion, Hu Yan was wearing more than a dozen arrows, but he did not hurt his muscles and bones, and returned to Langzhong to have a full meal and a hot bath, and immediately became a dragon spirit and a tiger, and a good man.

Xiang Zhuang shouted: "Lead the army of 2,000, go out of the Sword Pavilion Trail by the way, and copy the back road of the Han army!" ”

"Whoa!" Hu Yan snapped his hand and responded with a bang, and then turned around and went down the hall.
