Life is like a rushing river.

Sometimes turbulent, sometimes gentle, with crests and troughs, one careless can burrow into the winding swamp of the river, and there is no longer the momentum to move forward.

In this change of power in the Chu State, Ji Bu and Ding Gong were a group of frustrated people, and their relationship with the Xiang family became more rusty with the deprivation of power, and the corresponding was the rapid rise of the Xiang generals Shili represented by Xiang Zhuang, Xiang Sheng, and Xiang Xiang in the army.

Ji Bu and Ding Gong, who were gradually marginalized, gradually became disheartened. The negative attitude of these former backbones of the Chu army cast a shadow on the Chu army's military operation against Wei, however, the dissent of Ji Bu, Ding Gong and others could no longer reach Xiang Yu's ears at this time.

It is imperative to cut Wei.

The fighter plane is fleeting, and Xiang Yu's vision may not be broad enough in terms of the overall strategic situation, but in terms of tactical application and judgment of the local battlefield situation, he is first-class.

The position of the Great Liang can be attacked, retreated and defended, and there is Xingyang Jiancheng blocking the offensive line of the Qin army, and the analysis shows that if the Chu army succeeds in seizing the Great Liang, it will be able to win the right to dialogue with the Qin State on an equal footing and sit on an equal footing. As long as the Qin people showed the slightest hesitation on the issue of whether to reinforce or not, Xiang Yu's adventure would be completed.

At the beginning, in the face of Zhang Han's powerful Qin army, all the princes watched from the wall, and only the Chu army led by Xiang Yu took on the heavy task of resisting Qin alone. Today, in the face of doubts and objections, Xiang Yu, who has a persistent and tough personality, insists on going his own way in the midst of opposition, hoping to prove that the sword is not old, and his physical disability has not destroyed the fighting spirit in his heart.

The pride soaked in his bones made Xiang Yu firmly believe that the more others did not approve, once he persisted, he would once again create a miracle that shocked the world.

At the same time, in order to cooperate with the actions of the Chu army, Xiang Tuo, the minister of the state of Chu, sent Lou Jing as an envoy. Go to the Qin State to say Xiang, Lou Jing is also the old Qi people's clan, is the representative of the new generation of debaters in the Chu State after Kui Che, compared with the old and calculating Kui Che, the young Lou Jing is still in the stage of a young bird, Xiang Tuo does not have to worry about being attacked for the time being.

As the spokesperson for the interests of the Chu state, Lou Jing's intention was to confuse the Qin state, so as to buy time for the Chu army to quickly annex the rich Wei state.

——。

Once a confederate.

Chu and Wei, who met to fight against the tyrannical Qin, finally embarked on the road of no return to attack each other. The state of Chu sharpened its knives and was open-minded. What made Wei Wangbao, who was in the center of the whirlpool, frightened, made him even more angry. Zhang Ao, the envoy sent to Chu to lobby, not only did not speak for Wei, but also revealed the details of Wei to Chu.

It's not an opponent.

Now that he has been rebelled by the insiders, Wei Bao is wandering, anxiously waiting for Yongya to send Qin Guo to bring back good news, but he doesn't know that Yongya, a bombastic guy, actually knows not many Qin officials, and the old brothers when Peixian raised troops have died to death. Hidden and hidden, and among the generals and strategists who were subdued after Liu Bang's expedition to the west, many of them were disdainful of being two-faced and unwilling to associate with them at all.

zuihou。 Although he met Chen Ping, Li Zheng and other important Qin officials as an envoy of Wei, Chen Ping, Li Zheng and others did not dare to take matters into their own hands for such a major event involving military and diplomatic fields as supporting Wei.

In desperation. Yongya had to go back to Luoyang, the county seat of Sanchuan County. In Chang'an, he inquired in many ways, and finally got the exact news that Wuhou Li Yuan was coming from Nanyang County to Sanchuan County.

Luoshui in summer.

It is the time of year when the water is at its highest. Yongya and a few retinues, sitting by the window by the water, looking due south from here, not far from the dock, boats come and go, small merchant ships carrying groceries from the south, as well as large fleets of important materials such as grain, timber and so on, lined up in an orderly manner, like a group of soldiers being reviewed.

In the wine shop, groups of diners gathered together, telling what they had seen and heard in the north, south, east and west, and the traders from the south of the river were describing the amorous feelings of the barbarian women, while the Qiang men in the border areas were bare chests, and no one was next to them gulping down some light water wine.

"Hey, have you heard? Wu Hou's fleet was stopped by four old men who lived in seclusion in the Shangshan area? The words of a fat businessman from Nanjun suddenly drilled into Yongya's ears.

"What old man, that's Shangshan Sihao, I heard that he became a doctor when he was the first emperor, and he is very knowledgeable?" Another person familiar with the situation retorted.

"Si Hao, I'm sorry, what's the use of learning, I haven't seen them contribute anything to the country, they live in seclusion in Shangshan, if it weren't for the disciples who provide wealth and food, they would have starved to death." The one who spoke was the shirtless Qiang man, the integration of nationalities, accompanied by conquest, although there were still some pains in the process, but time would eventually cover everything up.

With the deepening of Qin's governance of Longxi and Hanzhong, some Qiang tribes gradually integrated into Qin's social system and began to regard themselves as Qin.

The Qiang people value reality and light reputation.

In the process of the rise of the Qin State, Shangshan Sihao did not make more than half of the credit as he said, and now, the four elders of Shangshan, Tang Bing, Dongyuan Gong, Zhou Shu, Mr. Luli, Qili Ji Wu Shi and Xia Huang Gong Cui Guang, together with the disciples, stopped Li Yuan on the way back to Luoyang, the purpose of which was to protest against Qin's latest policy of "don't be expensive and cheap, and prosper the public school".

As early as January, Li Yuan began to brew in Chang'an to increase investment in education, set up teachings in counties and counties, and establish schools in various localities; after several months of promotion, this measure has now begun to be popularized in Guannei, Sanchuan, Hanzhong, Bashu, and other places.

If there are children in the family who enlist in the army, priority will be given to enrollment and tuition fees will be waived.

Children of ordinary families, as long as they pay a small amount of room and board costs, can also go to the academy at any time to audit, and even women can go to the academy in the larger county town to learn knowledge——。

The implementation of these seemingly unsightly policies made every Qin citizen who had children happy, but at the same time, it also made the organizers of private schools feel anxious.

There is a constant loss of students.

The monthly intake of millet is also decreasing.

This makes the hermitages, who have always flaunted benevolence, sit still, seclusion is only a means to gain fame, and if no one comes to visit and spread their fame, they will really die of old age in the mountains and forests. (To be continued......)
