Chapter 187: Acquisition of Peng Yue
in this world.
Smart people often think they are smart, but they are actually stupid.
Zhang Er is one of them.
Before he mastered his absolute strength, he couldn't wait to choose a showdown with Zhong Li, the purpose of which was to take the opportunity to merge this Chu army under his Zhang Er's name.
As long as Zhong Liwu succumbs, then King Changshan will have enough strength again. I have to say that Zhang Er's choice to defect to Zhong Lifu's lobbying to Zuihou's lobbying is linked to the other, and the strategy is quite good, but unfortunately, the only thing he was wrong about was that he saw the wrong person.
Although Zhong Lifu's personality is relatively gentle, he is not a person who is bullied, besides, he is the number one fierce general under Xiang Yu's hands, it is difficult to eat under Zhang Er's hands, this is not the more he mixes up, the more he goes back.
September 10th.
On the way to Handan, Zhong Li's army suddenly launched a mutiny, Zhang Er's troops were caught off guard, and the generals were killed and wounded, and Zhang Er's army, which had no fighting spirit, was all disarmed.
Subsequently, Zhong Liwu unceremoniously sent Zhang Er, who was still immersed in triumph, out of the camp, and after a senseless dispute, Zhang Er left the Chu camp alone and decided to go to his old friend, Liu Bang, the king of Han.
From the 3,000 remnants of the soldiers when he came to the lone person when he left, Zhang Er's experience confirmed a sentence: don't pretend to be forced if you don't have the strength, pretend to be forced to be struck by lightning.
After the annexation of Zhang Erbu, Zhong Liwu immediately changed the original route of the march and led the army back to Zhongmu, an enclave located between Zhao, Wei, and Qin, which happened to be in the Sanzhi area, which was the most suitable location for Zhong Liwu's garrison.
――。
Across the river.
Two worlds.
In this hot August, Li Yuan has been staying in Luoyang to purge the army, and the continuous campaigns have exposed some of the shortcomings of the original structure of the Qin army, and if these small problems are not improved, the journey of the Qin army will become more difficult in the future.
Coordination between multiple arms was a common problem in the Qin army and even in all armies of this era. Cavalry, crossbowmen, foot soldiers. There is also the need for closer ties between auxiliaries. Only in this way can we effectively prevent the self-centeredness and conflicting thinking caused by the independence of various arms of the armed forces.
As for the way to solve the problem, Li Principle adopted the idea of establishing a Langzhong in each unit, and Langzhong was mainly responsible for liaison with the higher level and the peace level. At the same time, it also supervised the movements of the various units of the headquarters to prevent the tactical passivity of the whole army caused by the Elephant Tiger Prison Closing Squadron and taking risks to attack without authorization.
In this August, an old acquaintance of Li Yuan also came to Luoyang. His arrival surprised Li Yuan.
Peng Yue.
When this giant thief arrived in Luoyang, he looked very embarrassed, his cheeks were deep-set, his eyes were protruding, and his tall body was also tortured by a long period of lack of food.
Under Peng Yue's hands, there used to be an army of thousands of robbers at most, but now, there are only six or seven people who came to Luoyang with Peng Yue.
As soon as I heard that Peng Yue came to vote. Li Yuan almost couldn't believe it, unlike Han Xin and Chen Ping. Peng Yue was born as a thief, and he was used to being free and unrestrained, how could he come to Luoyang, and what puzzled him even more was where so many of this thief's subordinates went, I don't know if he betrayed Peng Yue or was surrounded and annihilated by the Chu army.
Council Hall.
Li Yuan and Peng Yue met again after parting with Liang. However, this time, the situation of the two people has completely turned upside down, and each other has changed from opponents on the battlefield to partners who can sit down.
"General Li, no, Li Hou, the criminal general Peng Yue came to vote today, and I am willing to ask Li Hou to take him in." Peng Yue's beard was scumbag, looking haggard, and it was really uncomfortable to be held down by Xiang Yu and beaten bitterly.
The premise of guerrilla warfare is that it can only be attacked in the flank and rear, rather than being swept back and forth by the main force of the enemy, Xiang Yu after breaking through the Yingbu Shili, began to realize that the area around Pengcheng is very unsafe, so the Chu army began a large-scale clean-up operation, located on the edge of the Chu land and Peng Yue, who was very unpopular, soon became the focus of the Chu army's attack.
Gang after gang of thieves were eliminated.
Peng Yue's shili also slowly weakened, and finally, in desperation, Peng Yue decided to break out with his cronies.
After several fierce battles, when Peng Yue looked back at his subordinates, he was surprised to find that only a few people were lucky enough to follow him, and most of the rest were scattered and fled to where they went, and the other part was annihilated in the swamp by the Chu army.
"Peng, General Peng, I heard that you have an old relationship with Liu Bang, the king of Han, why don't you defect to him?" Li Yuan smiled, he really didn't know what to call Peng Yue, so he had to describe it as a general.
"Pei Gong is a villain. In the past, under Xingyang City, Peng Yue was almost seized by him, and now he went to him, wouldn't it be boring to be bored. Peng Yue said with shame on his face.
Xingyang.
He Peng Yue is the number one person in Liu Bang's coalition army, and he is the most effective person in attacking the city wall, but now, time has passed, Peng Yue's current situation is embarrassing, Liu Bang has turned his back, Xiang Yu is the enemy who beat him to the ground, and Peng Yue can indeed take refuge in Li Yuan.
"General Peng is coming, Ben Hou naturally welcomes it, however, the Qin army has strict discipline, I'm afraid General Peng can't accept it, it's better to make a deal like this, you and I make a deal, our army can provide the general with food and baggage, and fund the general to return to Daze when the time is right, and make a comeback, what do you think?" Li Yuan thought for a moment and asked.
"Li Hou, is this true?" Peng Yue's eyes lit up and he asked urgently.
"The husband has a word, and the horse is difficult to chase. What Ben Hou said, of course, is true. However, if the general intends to harm my Great Qin in the future, he can blame Ben Hou for turning his face and being ruthless. Li Yuan said in a deep voice.
"Li Hou rest assured, although Peng is a thief, he also knows the word Xinyi, in the future, if he is sent, even if he is told." Peng Yue replied loudly.
This time I came to Li Yuan, to be honest, Peng Yue's real purpose is to seek Li Yuan's support, as the saying goes, there is a backer behind him, and he is called moisturized in these days. If he was really allowed to take refuge and become a member of the Qin army, how could Peng Yue not be able to stand the constraints of military discipline, and it was estimated that it would not be long before the result would be the same as when he surrendered to Wei Bao.
Seeing through Peng Yue's thoughts, Li Yuan didn't bother to talk anymore, Peng Yue's old nest Juyeze is located in the northeast of Xingyang, which is not far from Xiang Yu's Chu State, and is at the junction of the Qin and Chu armies.
Unexpectedly co-opted Peng Yue, Li Yuan was in a good mood, and with the increase of the influence of the Qin army, some famous figures in history also began to take the initiative to defect to Luoyang.
Peng Yue is one of the most famous.
In addition to him, the leader of a small shili who was unlucky enough to be robbed of military power during Liu Bangxi's expedition, Gangwu Marquis Chen Wu came to defect with more than 800 soldiers.
In the past two years, Chen Wu's life can be said to be getting worse and worse. Originally, when the army was raised, there were four or five thousand people under his command, who knew that he was fooled by Liu Bang, and the military power was seized all of a sudden, and he became a bare-bones order, and when he wanted to return to Dangjun to bring up the team, he found that the world had already been divided into seals and arrangements, and there was nothing to do with him.
Dangjun.
This place now belongs to the name of the Western Chu State, which is destined to have no room for a small shili like Chen Wu who is trying to be independent, and under Xiang Yu's strong blow, Chen Wu can escape with a group of subordinates, which is already a great luck.
――。
The revived Qin state, under Li Yuan's governance, showed great vitality.
This is what the Qin people are willing to see, but what other shili do not want to see, and Liu Bang's wife Lu Pheasant is the one who does not want to see Li Yuan proud.
Lu Pheasant's hatred was because of one thing, that is, a large ransom paid when he ransomed Lu Ze, which was not given by Liu Bang, the king of Han, but the savings of the Lu family for many years.
Hanzhong County, Xicheng.
Inside the county hall.
Lu Pheasant is dressed in bright red clothes, and his lips are also painted with a light leaf makeup, this kind of pink liquid made from the puffy grass juice in Hanzhong is very suitable for women's beauty, and the well-dressed Lu Pheasant looks only in his early twenties, and he looks very noble from a distance.
Lu.
It's just an ordinary small businessman in Pei County. Lu Pheasant's heart is very big, when he took a fancy to Liu Bang, he took a fancy to Liu Bang's talent. This is like investing, only by taking a long-term view can you make a lot of money.
"Shi Qi, I just heard from you, even the overlord is not his opponent, isn't that Li Yuan going to be famous again?" Lu Pheasant instructed the maid to groom in front of the bronze mirror, and said to a middle-aged man standing there.
When Cao Shen and other Han generals followed Liu Bang on the expedition, he stayed with Lu Pheasant and always accompanied, never abandoned. is familiar with each other, and Lu Pheasant no longer avoids judging him in the mirror makeup.
"Madam, it's presumptuous, then Li Yuan is really not bad at fighting, and he has some skills, but he also has weaknesses to take advantage of, but it's a pity that King Han hasn't used it!" Judging by the food, he stared at Lu Pheasant's back for a while, sighed and said slowly.
"What are you talking about, then Li Yuan's weakness, what is it quickly?" Lu Pheasant was interrogated and his words were hanged like this, and his interest immediately came up.
"Madam Mingjian, Li Yuan's blood is strong, young and strong, this is true. But the Qin State now really belongs to the Ying royal family, and there are only two princesses left. These two women seem to have some thoughts about Li Yuan, and this is the most Haode opportunity we can take advantage of. Judging by his smile, he withdrew the maids left and right, and approached Lu Pheasant's ear and said.
"Shiqi, you have an idea, and you have to talk about it carefully, and I will return to the king of Han and then make a plan." Lu Pheasant's eyes were like silk, his voice was soft, and his whole body seemed to be soft, clinging to his body.
Thirty is like a wolf, and forty is like a tiger.
Liu Bang's current pampered Qi Ji is less than twenty years old, young and beautiful, compared with Lu Pheasant, Lu Pheasant is at a disadvantage in personality and appearance, which makes Lu Pheasant, who is at the best age in a woman's life, can only stay alone in the empty room, and judge his daily companionship, so that Lu Pheasant can't help but feel a little upset.
