In the midst of the wind and snow, the tragic beginning of the great migration of border people.

On the galloping road of the Supreme Nu of Jiuyuan, a group of migrated Qin border people struggled in the heavy snow.

Once, they went north from the Central Plains to the Hetao, and at the bend of the Jiuqu of the river, they cultivated the hope of harvest and reproduced the next generation of descendants; Now, under the persecution of the Huns, they had to embark on a long journey to the south, but these poor and helpless border people did not know that on the banks of the Wuding River, a cruel war was about to begin.

On the banks of the uncertain river, the drums of war are bursting, and the turmoil is endless.

On the fifth day of the first lunar month, the tribal alliance led by the Ghost Fang tribe attacked a group of migrated border people in the north of Gaonu City, and encountered Menghu's escort border army, and the two sides fought a fierce battle, each with casualties, regardless of victory or defeat.

Subsequently, about 20,000 people of the Ghost Fang tribe alliance army that had been prepared for a long time surrounded the small Gaonu County, and more than 4,000 people in the city of Menghu were overwhelmed by the pressure and went out of the city to fight, but the battle was fruitless, and after losing more than 1,000 people, Menghu had to retreat to the city and wait for reinforcements.

In desperation, after discussing with Li Bi, Menghu sent a messenger from the border army to report to Li Yuanbu, an ally of Yongqi, in the form of a fast horse and a quick letter.

――。

The north is in an emergency, and the south is not calm.

Long He was in a hurry everywhere in the predicament, and the other princes and kings were beyond their reach, and they were unprepared, even if they wanted to reinforce, they couldn't gather troops for a while.

Liu Bang, the king of Han, was not.

Lantian Pass.

This important pass connecting Guanzhong and Hanzhong, on the cold afternoon of the sixth day of the first lunar month, ushered in an important person: Liu Bang, the king of Han.

After several months of dormancy, the number of Han troops in the area of Lantian Pass has increased from more than 1,000 to 20,000 now, which is naturally nothing compared to the 50,000 troops of Long Ji before, but now, the anti-Qin Liliang is extremely empty in Guanzhong, and the importance of Liu Bang, the king of Han, is undoubtedly revealed.

There is one in fifty years.

This is already the age of knowing the destiny of heaven.

From a pavilion chief in Pei County to the commander of the Western Expeditionary Army; and then was named one of the princes and kings of the Seventeen Roads, it stands to reason that Liu Bang should be content.

If he hadn't entered Xianyang City and hadn't seen what it meant to be an emperor, then he, Liu Bang, would be like other princes and kings, complacent and stubborn to be crowned king.

And from the moment he sat on the throne of the emperor of Xianyang Afang Palace, Liu Bang's goal was firmly changed from becoming a prince and king to ascending to the highest stage of power, like the first emperor, to be an emperor who reigns over the world and kills and kills.

It's a man, and he will be ambitious.

Whether he is old or young, among the princes from all walks of life, Liu Bang is confident that with his means and ability, he can win the opportunity to win in the competition for world domination.

Xiang Yu is just a reckless man, his mind is only in the Chu State, and there is no world. Zhao Xie, a descendant of the King of Martial Spirits in vain, was willing to be Chen Yu's puppet, and even Zhao Di was not calmed down, so what else could he talk about. As for Zhang Er, Wei Bao, Zhang Han, Long Ji and others, they are just grass cowards who have risen for a while, and it is not worth spending time trying to figure it out.

After receiving Long He's panicked letter for help, Liu Bang immediately convened Zhang Liang, Cao Shen, Zhou Bo and several other subordinates in Lantian Pass to discuss the matter, which was naturally not to save Long He, but how to seek greater benefits in Guanzhong.

"Ovary, tell me, what is the current situation in Guanzhong?" Liu Bang nodded at Zhang Liang with satisfaction and asked in an inquiring tone.

The plank road in the harsh winter season is dangerous and difficult to walk, and it is Zhang Liang who previously advised to leave a vanguard army in Lantian Pass, and proposed to transfer the elite army and the required grain to the pass in multiple batches before the winter comes.

Zhang Liang settled down, glanced at the generals, and said: "King Yuhan, generals, I just received a report from King Yong Zhang Han, Qin Wang Long died in the battle in Fufeng County, except for the thousands of soldiers who stayed in Xianyang, there was no survivor. Earlier, the troops of Dong Peng, the king of Zhai, were defeated by the Qin border army in Gaonu County, Dong Peng was killed, and now on the Guanzhong Plain, the only thing that can still pose a little threat to Li Yuan is only Zhang Han's team, however, Zhang Han's army was intercepted and killed by Li Yuan's cavalry on the way to retreat, and the estimated loss is not small; Next, we have to face two main enemies, one of which is also the most important one, which is our old opponent, the diehards of the remnants of Qin: Li Yuan and the three to forty thousand Qin soldiers under his command; There is also a group of Wang Libian army, which has been entrenched in the Jiuyuan area, and the number of this army should be between 20,000 and 30,000. ”

"Li Thief won again this time, it's really ghostly!" After hearing Zhang Liang's words, he sat down and suddenly let out this low sigh.

Hearing this sigh, the generals of the Han army and others were silent for a long time, if they would have had grievances when they heard Li Yuan's achievements before, now, they will not be at all. Li Yuan, that amazingly talented young man, gave Liu Bangjun too many surprises.

The ghost is not gone!

Liu Bang's heart felt as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer, which made him feel dizzy, and the corners of his eyes, which were already covered with fine lines, couldn't help but moisten.

Li Yuan, the young general of the Qin State, was like a demon haunted by demons for Liu Bang, and he couldn't break free.

The Han army and the Qin army clashed several times, and the only few defeats were almost all related to Li Yuan. Needless to say, three months ago, in that verdant season in midsummer, Liu Bang was full of spirits, leading the army of the Western Expedition under his command to cross the plank road, enter Xianyang, and destroy the Qin State, what a scenery; However, in the first battle of Guanzhong, the conquest army led by the two generals Qi Gill and Wang Ling was burned clean outside Chencang City.

"King Han-!" General Cao Shen patted the desk in front of him hard, and shouted at Liu Bang, who was in deep thought. At this critical time, the morale of the generals of the Han army was sluggish, which was quite dangerous, and it was none other than Liu Bang to awaken and arouse the generals' desire to win.

"Ofan, you tell me carefully, what should our army do at the moment?" Liu Bangqiang calmed down, straightened his body and said.

Zhang Liang threw an approving glance at Cao Shen, and then continued his analysis of the evolution of the battle situation, which is his strength, compared to Chen Ping, the chief historian under Li Yuan, is weaker than Zhang Liang in terms of grand strategy, and Chen Ping is better at grinding people's hearts and analyzing the enemy's psychological level.

"King Han, generals, at this time and that time, the overlord Xiang Yu is now stumbling by the Qi Ditian clan, and has no time to look west, Li Yuan is not completely without worries, according to the scout report, the Huns in the northern grassland are attacking the Hetao area, the ghost side of Shangjun, and the building is not resting, if our army appears in the Weiping Plain, Li Yuan will face a dilemma, if it goes north to help, our army can take the hinterland of Xianyang without much effort, and then occupy the empty Fufeng and other places; If Li Yuan does not save the border army, then our army can unite with King Yong's team to form a confrontation situation with the Qin army on the Weishui line, and only wait for the spring of the next year, and then transfer men and horses from Hanzhong to fight with Li Yuan! ”
