First lunar month.

The beginning of the year.

After the Lantian Pass military meeting, Liu Bang, the king of Han, regained his confidence, adopted Zhang Liang's advice, and did not quickly send troops to Xianyang, but united with the remnants of the defeated army of Zhang Han, the king of Yong, who was in panic, and organized a defensive line in the area of Weishui and Fufengnan, forming a stalemate with Li Yuan's Qin army.

The arrival of the Han army made the already clear battle situation in Guanzhong confusing again, and at the same time, Li Bi also came to Fufeng with Menghu's emergency messenger.

Fufeng North, Zhengguo Canal.

Here, it is the granary of the Qin State.

Here, it is the home of the Qin people's pastoral farming.

Here, it is the birthplace of the Guanzhong clan, whether in history, or in the time and space after Li Yuan's changes, left Fufeng and right Feng Ling, these two places are places where talent elites come out in large numbers.

Accompanied by Chen Ping, Xin Sheng, Han Xin, and other subordinates, Li Yuan came to this trunk canal that irrigated and moistened the 800 miles of fertile fields in the Weiping Plain.

In winter, the flow of Weishui decreases sharply, and the Zhengguo Canal also turns from a surging dry canal into a trickle, and the barren grass is delicate, and the Qin people excavate a branch canal to divert water on the side of the canal, forming a dense grid-like pastoral picture. When spring begins, with the participation of water from the upstream, the thousands of hectares of fertile land moistened by Zhengguo Canal will be full of vitality again.

From Yongzhou to Fufeng, there are more than 300 miles, and the supply lines of Li Yuanjun's army began to get longer and longer after successive victories, which made the requirements for rear transportation more urgent. Restore the role of Zheng Guoqu, so that Fufeng can become a transportation point for attacking Xianyang, looking at Gaonu in the north, and Chencang in the south, and at the same time, it has enough self-sufficiency to ensure the supply of heavy army groups stationed here.

"General, that kid Menghu is surrounded by the Ghost Fang Alliance, Gao Nu is in danger, I'm afraid it won't last long, hurry up and send troops!" Li Bi's face was full of dust, and his whole body was stained with blood, and he was haggard.

In order to break out of the encirclement and interception of the Ghost Alliance, more than ten border cavalry who covered him were all overthrown, and even the messenger sent by Menghu was seriously wounded and died.

"Cao Xin, and send Captain Li Du down to rest and recuperate, and give the order to go down, and quickly convene all military generals and schools to help the wind and discuss the matter." Li Yuan had a solemn look on his face and commanded.

As Zhang Liang expected, whether to continue to attack Xianyang regardless of the life and death of the border army, occupy the hinterland of Guanzhong, and gain control of Guanzhong in a short time, or lead the army north to rescue the border army, the only alliance Liliang, Li Yuan is now in a dilemma.

On the way back to Fufeng City, Li Yuan didn't speak, and Chen Ping, Han Xin, Xin Sheng and other generals also tacitly agreed not to disturb Li Yuan's thinking.

swore to sweep away the Huns, and five thousand mink brocade mourned Hu Chen;

Poor and uncertain riverside bones, like a person in a spring boudoir dream.

Li Yuan remembers clearly that the drama war between the Central Plains ethnic group and the northern nomadic peoples began in the Shang Dynasty and lasted until modern times and modern times, that is, in the era of the Republic before Li Yuan crossed over, and the East Turkistan Shili in the northwest was also a major hidden danger to national security.

Historically, the battle for hegemony between the powerful Han Dynasty and the Huns, the overlord of the grasslands, is the most Haode comment of Li Yuan's view, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty relied on ruthless military means to fight the Huns had to move west to hide, and since then, no longer dare to look back to the east; The Tang Dynasty was dragged down by the Anshi Rebellion, the Song Dynasty died to the Mongols, and the Ming Dynasty was wiped out by the Houjin wild boar skin, all of which were caused by tiger breeding.

This is a realistic version of the standard fable of the farmer and the snake, that is, in the era that Li Yuan traveled through, the Chinese people also had to bear the consequences of their magnanimity in the throes of terrorist attacks again and again.

In the competition for the right to survive, there is no need for mercy or mercy, and the right to survival and development of the nation must be won by iron and blood.

Win and occupy the most fertile place; Whether it's farming or grazing, you deserve it; If you lose, drive your cattle and sheep, take your people, migrate far away, if you don't admit defeat, you have the ability to fight back, of course, you have to have courage and courage to fight, a careless, it may lead to the end of the extinction.

Choice is crucial.

The seventh day of the first lunar month.

Li Yuan convened the generals under his command in Fufeng to discuss urgently and deploy the next step. Except for Jiang Yu, who was stationed in the important town of Chencang, who could not leave, and Bai Guangji, who was far away in Hexi, who could not be notified, the generals of all the armies, including Wang Shang, were all present.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the current military situation is urgent, and the crisis faced by the border army has reached a critical juncture of survival, Li can't sit back and watch more than 100,000 border people being slaughtered by aliens, and can't let the elite Sanqin disciples be beheaded, so Jihua, who is attacking Xianyang, has to make adjustments-!"

Li Yuan paused, only to see Feng Xuan and the other new generals showing disappointment on their faces, for them, the temptation of Xianyang was much greater than that of Jiuyuan and Shangjun in the north.

Compared to Feng Xuan, who couldn't hold his breath, Han Xin obviously had a lot more of a city government, and the expression on his face barely changed, as if he had long expected Li Yuan to do this.

"According to the latest information from the scouts, Liu Bang has joined forces with Zhang Han and laid a defensive line on the south bank of Weishui, and there is an attempt to spy on my Fufeng area. Now, I intend to leave a group of people to stay in the Fufeng area. I wonder which general can do this? Li Yuan asked, glancing at the generals.

The responsibility of staying behind is heavy, once the wind is lost, the hinterland of Yongqi will become an open hollow dumpling, allowing the enemy to gallop back and forth, in the face of this heavy burden, not to mention Feng Xuan and other young generals, even veterans such as Xin Sheng, they also feel pressure, and it is difficult to answer for a while.

"Han is willing to lead 5,000 men and horses to defend the city, within 15 days, the city can be kept safe, and after 15 days, if the army does not return, please allow me to lead the troops to retreat." While everyone was still hesitating, Han Xin stood up.

Fifteenth.

Except for about four days on the way back and forth, the main force of the Qin army has eleven days of maneuver time, which is enough to rescue Menghu's border army, as for the Wang Li army in Jiuyuan, although the Huns are menacing, Han Xin believes that Wang Li and Su Jiao can cope with it for the time being.

"In this way, the military order is like a mountain and cannot be changed. Fufeng will be handed over to Captain Han, fifteen days later, I will personally lead the army to meet with the captain, and when the time comes, I will set up a banquet and drink it together! Li Yuan Daxiao said.

Han Xin, sure enough, did not disappoint him.

Although it is a great responsibility to guard and help the wind, it is also a rare opportunity to stand alone.
