Chapter 29: Strategic Decisions (Part I) (Ask for a Few Referral Votes)
At that moment, Xiang Zhuang ordered Jing Qian to release Wei Yu, and drove everyone a hundred steps away.
Wei Yu rubbed his wrist and said with a wry smile: "Since the general understands everything, there is no need to embarrass the old man anymore, right?" Besides, he is nearly seventy years old, and he is about to die, so he really can't help the general. β
Xiang Zhuang waved his hand and said: "Mr. Wei Yu, now there is only you and me here, and there is no one else, if there is anything to say, I can tell you clearly, I yearn for the majesty of the Great Qin Empire very much, and I do not hate the remnants of Great Qin, and I never think that the First Emperor is a tyrant, let alone that the Great Qin Law is **!" β
Wei Yi couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, Xiang Zhuang's words were really beyond his expectations.
For a long time, the banner of the Kwantung Righteous Army is to punish tyrants, except for **, and the Chu and Han armies are the two most influential armies in the righteous army, and they are also the two major forces that are now competing for the world, and now Xiang Zhuang actually said that the first emperor is not a tyrant, and he never thinks that Daqin is a tyrant, which is denying the entire righteous army!
"I know what's going on in my husband's mind." Xiang Zhuang smiled faintly, and then said, "I won't tell you anything, I never thought that the Kwantung Righteous Army was a benevolent and righteous army that responded to the will of heaven and the people, in fact, the so-called righteous army was a group of mobs, and the reason why Great Qin perished was all because of the second Hu Hai and the traitor Zhao Gao!" β
"Ugh." Wei Yi couldn't help but sigh, but Xiang Zhuang's words spoke to his heart.
After Qin Shi Huang swallowed the Six Kingdoms, he not only unified the writing and weights and measures, but also extended the strict laws of the Qin State to the whole world, and naturally was strongly resisted by the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, but even the state machinery of the Six Kingdoms of the Kwantung was destroyed by the army of Qin Shi Huang, and the resistance of the remnants of the tribes naturally could not become a climate at all.
Just as when Wei Ying changed the law, the old clans of the Qin State could not stop the implementation of the new law, and the remnants of the six countries of Kwantung were also unable to prevent the implementation of the Great Qin Law throughout the country.
However, just when the people of Kwantung slowly adapted to the Qin law, and when the remnants of the Six Kingdoms slowly lost their influence, Qin Shi Huang suddenly died, and because Qin Shi Huang did not appoint a prince, the result gave Zhao Gao, a traitorous minister, an opportunity to take advantage of, and with the opportunity to support the second Hu Hai, Zhao Gao quickly grasped the authority of the Great Qin Empire.
Then, under the perverse actions of Zhao Gao and the second Hu Hai, the people of Kanto were overwhelmed, and Daze Township ** finally broke out inevitably, and the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, who had almost lost their influence, took the opportunity to join it, and as a result, this originally unworthy ** became a prairie fire, and soon affected all the regions of the original Kwantung Six Kingdoms.
But even so, the Kwantung rebel army could not shake the foundation of the Great Qin Empire at all.
As long as the emperor is slightly capable, or the ministers who hold the authority of the empire have a little political talent, the Great Qin Empire can still extinguish the Kwantung rebellion in a handshake, but unfortunately, the second Hu Hai is a stupid pig, and the powerful minister Zhao Gao is a eunuch without a queen, he has never thought about what happened after his death, the only thing he cares about is the luxury and honor of this world!
As a result, the second Hu Hai and the traitor Zhao Gao joined forces to dismantle the pillars of the Great Qin Empire, Meng Tian, Meng Yi, and Li Si one by one, and finally overthrew the last cornerstone of the Great Qin Empire - Zhang Han!
Zhang Han was unwilling to be killed, so he led 200,000 Qin troops to rebel into the camp of the rebel army.
At this time, even the rebirth of the First Emperor could not save the fate of the empire, and the supreme and gorgeous edifice of the Great Qin Empire collapsed!
Therefore, for Xiang Zhuang's words, Wei Yi can be said to have the same feelings!
Wei Yi just didn't expect Xiang Zhuang to say such a thing!
If these words are heard by Huan Chu, Ji Bu and other generals of the Chu army, I am afraid that it will immediately lead to a turmoil, not to mention that Xiang Zhuang will lose his prestige from now on, but it is inevitable that the heart of the Chu army will fluctuate!
The lieutenant said in a deep voice: "The general is not afraid that the old man will tell these words to others?" β
"Mr. is a national scholar, how can he act like such a villain?" Xiang Zhuang waved his hand and said lightly, "Moreover, I am not afraid to tell Mr. that if he can win the battle between Chu and Han and determine the world, my Great Chu will not be able to follow the name of the Great Qin State, and other aspects will copy the laws of the Qin State as much as possible, especially the cultivation and warfare system!" β
"Is this true?" Hearing this, Wei Yu couldn't help but be slightly moved.
If Xiang Zhuang is really willing to implement the law of Great Qin after the world is settled, then the hatred between Qin and Chu is not worth it, because the Great Qin Empire rules the country by law, and it is strictly forbidden to fight and kill, and the grievances between Qin and Chu were originally national feuds, but after the Great Chu replaced Qin, it became a personal feud again.
Xiang Zhuang said lightly: "My Xiang Zhuang is all about this, believe it or not, Mr." β
At this point, Xiang Zhuang has already shown all his hole cards, and now it depends on Wei Yi's choice.
Wei Zhuang fell into a long period of contemplation, there is no doubt that Xiang Zhuang's remarks just now gave him a great impact, Wei Zhuang did not think that Xiang Zhuang was deceiving his trust with rhetoric, because Xiang Zhuang could say what he just said, which showed that he had a deep understanding of the law and the cultivation and warfare system of the Great Qin Empire.
Regarding the law of the Qin State and the cultivation and warfare system, Wei Yu is quite superstitious.
No matter who it is, as long as he has a deep understanding of the law of the Qin State and the cultivation and warfare system, he will definitely be deeply attracted by the huge energy contained in it, and the great power that can burst out.
Wei Yu suddenly found that his long-lost heart seemed to have revived again!
In fact, Wei Yi's heart of contention has never really been extinguished, before living in seclusion in the valley, that was forced by the situation, the glory of the Great Qin Empire has become yesterday's yellow flower, and no matter which one wins in the end of the dispute between Chu and Han, it is impossible to inherit the legacy of the Great Qin Empire, so even if Wei Yi has a competitive heart, it is difficult to have a chance to show his ambitions.
However, now, Xiang Zhuang unmistakably told him that once Xiang Chu won the battle between Chu and Han, he Xiang Zhuang would follow the laws of the Qin State as much as possible and restore the legacy of the Great Qin! There is no doubt that this is an opportunity, not only an opportunity for him to be a captain, but also an opportunity for the law of the Qin State and the cultivation and warfare system, and even an opportunity for "32 Chapters of the Emperor"!
Wei Yi's face changed again and again, and it took a long time before he finally said: "General, the old man believes in you!" β
"Good!" Xiang Zhuang couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately clenched his fists and said, "I have to help my husband, and I can get a million troops, and the revival of Great Chu is just around the corner!" β
Wei Yu shook his head and said with a wry smile: "The old man can't afford to be a general. β
"Deserve it, sir!" Xiang Zhuang said this, and said sincerely, "Sir, I don't know if the three-step strategy I mentioned earlier is feasible?" β
Wei Yi nodded and said: "From the overall situation, the three-step strategy proposed by the general is undoubtedly extremely wise, but the old man thinks that before the general returns to Jiangdong, he must first disintegrate the coalition forces gathered in Huaisi, only in this way can the Chu State have the opportunity to provoke disputes between the princes of all walks of life and Liu Bang, and there is hope for the revival of the great cause!" β
"First disintegrate the coalition forces gathered in Huaisi?" Xiang Zhuang frowned and asked rhetorically, "Is this possible?" β
Obviously, Wei Yi actually completely repudiated Xiang Zhuang's strategy, although the sentence "wise" was added in front of it.
Wei Yu explained: "General, Liu Bang, the king of Han has become a force that has swept the world, if it is him, as soon as the war against the general is over, no matter what the result is, he will immediately cut off the military power of the princes and kings of all walks of life, and then divide Han Xin, Peng Yue, and Yingbu into the nine counties of the old Chu, so that the general can fight back to Jiangdong, what can he do?" β
Xiang Zhuang suddenly broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this, no wonder he always felt that something was wrong, and dared to forget this stubble?
Historically, did Liu Bang divide Han Xin, Yingbu and Peng Yue near Jiangdong? Han Xin is the king of Chu, Jiangdong is directly his border, Huainan Wang Yingbu and Jiangdong are only separated by a Wujiang River, and Peng Yue, the king of Liang, is only a few hundred miles away.
Even if Han Xin, Qi Bu, and Peng Yue's old troops were all incorporated by Liu Bang, even if they only had tens of thousands of county soldiers under their command, Xiang Zhuang couldn't play them either, the three famous generals of the early Han Dynasty were not blown out, they were all famous on the battlefield, and with the more than 5,000 remnants of Xiang Zhuang, how could they be their opponents?
"So......" Wei Yu paused and said solemnly, "The general must first disintegrate the allied forces of various countries gathered in Huaisi before Liu Bang starts to cut off the military power in the hands of the princes!" β
Xiang Zhuang was awe-inspiring when he heard this, and immediately humbly asked: "So, how can we break up the coalition army?" Immediately, Xiang Zhuang turned back to Jing Qian and Gao Chu and beckoned, "Quickly bring the map." β
Jing Qian and Gao Chu ran forward and spread out the map on the grass again.
Wei Yu found the location of Ao Cang on the map, and then pointed to Ao Cang and said: "If you want to break up the coalition army, you can only risk going north out of the Dabie Mountain, run long distance to attack Ao Cang, and cut off the food supply of the coalition army in one fell swoop. β
"Hmm!" Xiang Zhuang nodded heavily, and said thoughtfully, "Intercept its grain road!" β
Aocang was built by Qin Shi Huang to hoard the public grain handed over to the treasury of the six Kwantung countries.
Because Qin Fa treated the Kwantung clan and the people of Li Shu equally, coupled with the empire's reward for farming and warfare, in addition to winning military exploits, paying more public grain can also get a knighthood, as a result, the enthusiasm of the people of Kanto was unprecedentedly high, and every household competed to pay grain and donations, because the people of Kanto paid too much public grain, Qin Shi Huang ordered the construction of Ao Cang specifically for hoarding Kanto public grain!
There is no clear record in the history books about how much grain is hoarded in Aocang, but there is such an amazing fact!
The Qin army fought with the Kwantung Rebellion for three years, and after the fall of the Great Qin Empire, Chu and Han fought for another five years, and after eight years of melee, Ao Cang continued to export military rations, and many cellars actually had surplus grain!
In the decisive battle, a big reason why Xiang Yu was defeated was because he lost Ao Cang!
Until now, the food hoarded in Aocang has not been eaten, and most of the 700,000 allied troops gathered in Huaisi are sent from Aocang for their daily military rations. #####ps# Thank you for the generous rewards of Purple Dragon Ranger, β Time Walk β, Dragon and Phoenix ABC, Jiangnan Flying Mouse, Xiutianzi, High Mountain Peak, No Limit 1, 1314 Cordial and Kind, Fate April, Smiling Handsome β» The World, Smoke is Scattered, maomaomao365, Innocent Little Piggy, βγ¨ing, Ye Luo Ruthless, Blue Blood Sword 1, Ye Chengtian, Thirteen Little Demons, β Nalan Buyiβ , Dao Xuan, Source of the Sea, bothers- and other book friends, thank you very much.
