[My heart set sail, book club] YY52448, welcome to the bar friends to reside, recruitment management. There's also a great job to record audio novels!
Early the next morning, Zhao Wu, the general of Zhao Guo, rushed back to Handan, and Guan Gao immediately invited him to come over to discuss matters.
In the living room of the Prime Minister's Mansion, General Guan Gao re-relayed the meaning of Wu Shi to Zhao Wu, and then said: "General, I don't know what your opinion is?" ”
Zhao Wu asked rhetorically: "What does the minister mean?" ”
Guan Gao sighed and said, "Chu Jun, don't be underestimated. ”
Zhao Wu nodded and said, "The Chu army is unstoppable, and it is indeed not to be underestimated. ”
Guan Gao said: "Therefore, Wu Shi has a sentence that is not wrong, once the battle starts, I Zhao Di will be full of corpses, blood flowing, Handan County has finally recovered, I am afraid that it will be ten rooms and nine empty again!" ”
Zhao Wu said: "But if you let go of the Chu army like this, the king of Han will not be able to explain it." ”
"Confession? What is there to confess? Guan Gao frowned, and said in a muffled voice, "As the king of Zhao, can't our king even be the master of the state affairs of the Zhao country, and we all want the king of Han to dictate him?" ”
Zhao Wu said: "Since the Prime Minister has made up his mind, he will give his full support!" ”
Guan Gao said: "Okay, then let's draw a marching route as soon as possible for the Chu army to cross!" ”
After that, Guan Gao turned around and beckoned, and a small official under the door had already lifted the screen, and then hung the whole map of the terrain of Zhao on the screen.
At that moment, Guan Gao and Zhao Wu got up and came to the map.
Looking at the map, Guan Gao suddenly asked, "General, is the Liang army still on the white horse?" ”
"Yes." Zhao Wu nodded and said, "Liu Kou is still making a big show on the other side, building bridges and building ships." ”
Guan Gao stroked the long hair under his chin, and suddenly said: "It's better to do this, limit the Chu army to go south along the eastern foot of Taihang Mountain, and then go east along Zhangshui, pass through Ye County, pass through Anyang, and finally cross the river from Baimajin!" ”
"Borrow the Chu army to resist the Liang army?" Zhao Wu suddenly said, "Prime Minister of the country, high, really high!" ”
Guan Gao smiled silently, since Xiang Zhuang said that he wanted to befriend Zhao Guo, then he should have something to say, only a thousand good horses, it is inevitable that he is too stingy, but after thinking about it, Guan Gao is still not at ease, and told Zhao Wudao: "But General, it is still necessary to strengthen the garrison of Ye County and Anyang, and beware of the sneak attack of the Chu army." ”
Zhao Wu responded: "Don't worry, the prime minister will send heavy troops along the way." ”
Guan Gao nodded, and then turned back and instructed the little officials under the door: "Go to the post house immediately, please come to the Chu envoy!" ”
"Whoa!" The little officer bowed down and took the order.

In order to avoid misunderstanding by Zhao State, the Chu army was stationed near Gao County, on the border between Handan County and Hengshan County.
Because further south is Handan County, and Handan County is the core area of Zhao State, densely populated, Xiang Zhuang did not want to rush south before reaching an agreement with Zhao State.
Because Xiang Zhuang really didn't want to start a war with Zhao Guo.
Today's general trend in the world is no longer what it used to be.
At this time last year, the Chu army was still a lone army, and it was being pursued by the princes of the Nine Roads, there was no front, no rear, no future, and even no hope.
Now Xiang Zhuang has pulled up an iron horse in adversity!
As long as you return to Jiangdong with this iron horse, the revival of Dachu is no longer a luxury!
What's more, Liu Bang Lao'er has been forced back to Guanzhong by the Chu army, and he can't get out in a short time, this time, the world will return to the Warring States Period, at this time, the Chu army can no longer do whatever it wants, and set up enemies everywhere! At this time, Xiang Zhuang had to carefully handle the relationship between the Chu army and other countries.
Desperate military force will never achieve great things!
When it comes to fighting, who else can be more powerful than Xiang Yu, but in the end, Xiang Yu was defeated?
Therefore, from now on, Xiang Zhuang must learn to solve disputes between countries through political, diplomatic and other means, and only when political, diplomatic and other means cannot solve the problem, can he finally resort to force and finally start a war! This is the way a superior person should think and do things.
For Xiang Zhuang's way of treating the transit of Zhao State so carefully, Huan Chu, Ji Bu and even Gao Chu, Xiao Kai, Tian Heng, Meng Yan and other generals were a little unimpressed, with the current combat effectiveness of the Chu army, plus they are all cavalry that come and go like the wind, why bother with Zhao Guo's reaction? If Zhao Jun doesn't stop it, if he dares to stop it, then beat him up! ,
However, Wei Yi and Bai Lixian admired Xiang Zhuang's move, especially Wei Yi.
Regarding Xiang Zhuang's ability to lead troops to fight and control generals and people, Wei Yi has never been worried!
Wei Yu was just a little worried that Xiang Zhuang would be hasty in handling state affairs, and at the moment, he was worried that Xiang Zhuang would forcibly cross Zhao State in an arrogant way, and after crossing the river, he was afraid that he would also cross Liang State or even Huainan and return to Jiangdong in the same brutal way, but now it seems that he is too worried.
In Xiang Zhuang's big tent, Xiang Zhuang was chatting with Wei Yi and Bai Lixian.
Since getting rid of the Huns' pursuit, the Chu army has been relatively leisurely in recent times, passing through Shanggu and Guangyang along the way, the Yan army did not dare to come out to cause trouble, compared to the Central Plains countries, the Yan country has the smallest population, and the army is the weakest, tens of thousands of Chu army iron cavalry entered the Yan land in a big way, and the Yan army retreated in the city, where did they dare to send troops to intercept and kill?
Xiang Zhuang cut a slice of bacon with a dagger and stuffed it into his mouth, and asked Wei Yu while chewing: "Military advisor, it seems that Wu Shi has been going to Handan for seven or eight days, there should be news, right?" ”
"Don't worry, general, Wu Shi will be back in the next two days."
Yu Yi said, and tightened the white tiger skin on his body, last time Xiang Zhuang hunted a white tiger in Hetao, and really tanned a white tiger skin for Wei Yu, not to mention, this way of marching, Wei Yu wrapped in a white tiger skin, he really didn't feel cold, and the old cold legs that used to attack every winter were also relieved a lot.
"With Mr. Wu She's eloquence, convincing Guan Gao, Zhao Wu and others is just a piece of cake."
Bai Lixian, who was sitting at the head of Wei Yu, also echoed, young people are young people, they are full of blood and energy, Wei Yi has already been wrapped in a white tiger skin, but Bai Lixian is still shaking a feather fan in his hand.
The voice fell, the curtain was lifted, and Wu Shi had already walked in.
Without waiting for Wu Shi to see the salute, Xiang Zhuang smiled and said: "Hey, this is really talking about Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive." ”
"Uh......" Wu Shi was stunned when he heard this, and bowed again, "General, in Xia Wu She, it's not Cao Cao." ”
Wei Yi and Bai Lixian also looked at each other, who is Cao Cao? How is it that this man has never been recorded in the canons? Xiang Zhuang was sweating profusely, but he forgot that it was the end of Qin, and Cao Cao would not be born until about four hundred years later, and the world had been turned upside down by his butterfly wings, and it was estimated that there would be no Han Dynasty, would there still be Cao Cao?
At that moment, Xiang Zhuang coughed dryly and asked Wu She: "Sir, how did Guan Gao and Zhao Wu reply?" ”
"Back to the generals, they have already agreed." Wu Shi arched his hand, took out a silk map from his sleeve, and then said, "However, they also limited the marching route for us, and only allowed us to follow the route they demarcated, otherwise, it will be regarded as a provocation to Zhao State, and Zhao State will go to war with us." ”
Bai Lixian shook his feather fan and said, "This is also expected. ”
Wei Yi also said: "Zhao Di is a horse in Pingchuan, but there is no need to worry about being ambushed." ”
Xiang Zhuang took the map, swept it at a glance and handed it to Wei Yu at the bottom right, and then said: "Okay, according to the route demarcated by Zhao State, the army will start early tomorrow morning and go south to Baimajin!" ”

Baimajin, the camp of the Liang army.
Liu Kou, the general of Liang Guo, was drinking in the big tent, and Liu Kou was not in a good mood recently.
The reason why Liu Kou is in a bad mood is actually very simple, because there is no fight! Since Xiang Yu's soldiers were defeated, the Liang army basically didn't fight any battles, and there was no battle, which means that there is no oil and water, and there is no oil and water.
It's just a matter of making trouble, to be honest, Liu Kou doesn't care about the life or death of the people of Liang, and the arrogant soldiers under his command often take the heads of the people of Liang to ask for rewards from King Liang, and Liu Kou often turns a blind eye and ignores it, but recently, King Liang appointed a guy named Xi Yi as the minister of state, and began to rectify law and order in various counties of Liang State, and arrested a lot of people.
Among the people who were arrested, many of them were Liu Kou's cronies, Liu Kou went to intercede with King Liang, but King Liang not only did not allow it, but even reprimanded him, do you say Liu Kou can not be depressed?
Liu Kou was drinking, and the adjutant general Chu Chun suddenly came in and reported: "General, there are a lot of cavalry on the other side of the river!" ”,
"Cavalry?!" Liu Kou was shocked when he heard this, and the little alcohol on his body suddenly disappeared, and he immediately got up and put on his armor, and asked Chu Chun, "How many cavalry are there?" ”
Chu Chun said: "The last general estimates, not to mention that there are tens of thousands of riders!" ”
"Tens of thousands of cavalry?!" Liu Kou became more and more surprised, "Where did Zhao Guo get so many cavalry? ”
Zhao Guo really wants to have so many cavalry, so the battle between the Liang army and the Zhao army can be predicted.
The Liang army is sharp, compared to the Zhao army, it is more brave and good at fighting, but the disadvantages of the Liang army are also very obvious, that is, the military food is not continued, it is difficult to last, once the Zhao army is deep and high, and it is difficult to hold out, the Liang army will soon run out of military rations, and retreat without a fight, and now, Zhao suddenly has more than 10,000 cavalry, which is even more unfavorable to the Liang army.
At that moment, Liu Kou hurriedly dressed neatly, and came straight to the watchtower with his deputy general Chu Chun.
Climbed the watchtower and looked into the distance on the north bank of the river, Liu Kou really saw the black pressure, the boundless sea of cavalry, Chu Chun said that there were tens of thousands of cavalry, that is still conservative, Liu Kou estimated, let alone 30,000 horsemen! 30,000 cavalry, this is a formidable combat force, when did Zhao Guo form such a huge cavalry?
I don't know what the combat effectiveness of this cavalry of Zhao State is, as long as it can have half of the combat power of the cavalry army commanded by the former Zhao Li Mu, then the Liang army should not think about waiting for the river to freeze and cross the river to attack the Zhao State, or directly retreat to Dingtao and Daliang, and defend the city to the death, because this battle cannot be fought at all...... )
