readx;?? On September 11, 208 BC, for a long time before this day, there were no more large-scale battles between the two sides around the Julu area. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoCopy this address to browsehp://%77%77%77%2e%62%69%71%69%2e%6d%65/ For this situation, Zhang Jiashi, who was reading the chapter in the camp tent, also felt very helpless.

The reason lies in one point, that is, the news of Li You's death was conveyed to him by Dong Peng.

Zhang Jiashi didn't know what kind of relationship he had with Li You. If Li You hadn't taken a very big risk and sent him a charcoal in the snow, I'm afraid that whether he can send troops now will become a problem. After all, there are many things that are linked. If the pace of development slows down at that time, I am afraid that many things will have to be postponed or even cancelled.

Therefore, in many ways, Zhang Jiashi still has a good impression of Li Jiren. Besides, after getting along with Xianyang for a day or two, Li You, Wei Zhong and others gave him a lot of help. So in public and private, after receiving the news, Zhang Jiashi was silent for a long time, and finally sighed.

Zhang Jiashi didn't know that Li You had sent him and Yingxiao's children to Liaodong. And the few people who knew about the situation, including the few people who were Xi's father-in-law, did not inform him and Yingxi of the news, and the two sisters of Yinglian learned about it.

Father-in-law Xi also has some friendship with Li You, so he naturally knows that Li Yourang brought a pair of children to Liaodong County to live incognito, and he was more worried that his children would be in danger. It's not that Li You doesn't believe Zhang Jiashi, but once some problems really occur, Zhang Jiashi may not be able to guarantee the safety of his children. He didn't want Zhang Jiashi to be embarrassed by this, nor did he want his children to have problems that he didn't expect because of some things, so Li You finally chose such an approach.

Father-in-law Xi thought that Li You might have chosen such a method because he hoped that his children could live better.

So Grandpa Xi didn't tell anyone about it, and after personally verifying the identities of the two children, Grandpa Xi silently left the village where he had never been again.

"Maybe that's how everything goes. Father-in-law Xi, who returned to the carriage, muttered such a sentence.

It's just that even Gonggong Xi himself didn't expect that more than 30 years later, Li You's eldest son Li Mian's daughter Li Concubine married Zhang Ying's eldest son Zhang Dinghua, and Li You's eldest daughter Li Lin's son Shi Qian married the imperial princess at that time.

After the two sides confirmed the genealogy and other things, Zhang Jiashi sighed in a low voice at that time, this world is really small.

Hearing this, Ying Lian was so angry that he pinched his husband's waist fiercely.

Of course, that's another story.

According to relevant records, after the two parties got married, Zhang Jiashi asked the then emperor Ying to restore Li You's title, and let Li Mian, who was already past the age of confusion, inherit the title.

...................................................... Dividing Line................................................

After the fall of Rongyang City, the troops of Han Cheng, the king of Han and Liu Bang, the prince of Pei, who broke through Rongyang, were not forbidden to discipline themselves in Rongyang City for three days. In the past three days, the entire Rongyang City has completely become a hell.

But for Zhang Jiashi, this is not the biggest problem, and it can even be said that it is not a problem at all. Because Zhang Jiashi couldn't control Rongyang firstly, and secondly, he didn't want to get involved in the chaos in the Central Plains.

However, at such a time, the problem also arose, that is, in such a situation, the area south of the river east of Hangu Pass, up to the area of Nanyang County, has basically been equated with an undefended state.

Zhang Jiashi knew that Li You had tried his best, but the result of his best efforts was not rewarded. Perhaps, the current Xianyang Caishikou will have more heads of hundreds of people, including Li Si.

He doesn't think anything about this, this path, since it is Li Si's choice, shouldn't he also have this awareness?

Thinking of Zhang Jiashi here, he suddenly felt that Li Si was very pitiful, but Zhang Jiashi himself knew very well that if it weren't for what Li Si did was too hateful, there would not be such a pitiful ending.

The trouble now is that if Liu Bang takes advantage of such an opportunity to advance westward, I am afraid that the Guanzhong area, which will not have too many troops, will be difficult to defend.

Zhang Jiashi thought of one thing wrongly, that is, after the news of Li Youbing's defeat and death reached Xianyang, Zhao Gaojin said that Hu Hai had drawn 15,000 people from the Qin army in the Lintao area and the Qin army in the Hanzhong area to form two troops to strengthen the defense capability of the two strategic places of Hangu Pass and Wuguan respectively.

Not only that, Zhao Gao once again transferred some personnel from the prisoners and the Central Army in the Xianyang area to form a mobile force in the Gongwei Guanzhong area. The commander of this unit was no one else, but Kong Gang, who had a relationship with Zhang Jiashi.

It can be said that in a certain sense, Li You's death in battle is just a small problem in Zhao Gao's eyes. He was even thinking that this problem was not a big deal at all, and he Zhao Gao would be able to find such a way to solve the problem.

Of course, if Zhao Gao knew that he was doing this in a sense, he could be regarded as self-defeating, would he regret not doing it at the beginning?

......

Zhang Jiashi was worried that Liu Bang would take advantage of this opportunity for them to be pinned down in Julu and take the opportunity to go west, but under the current development of such a situation, Zhang Jiashi had no way to get out of such a situation. For Zhang Jiashi and Chen Ping, the Qi army in front of them has not been resolved, and they can't do it even if they want to retreat.

There are some things that can be done without the confidence to do it. At the very least, the Qi army stuck in the barrier made Zhang Jiashi and Chen Ping have no good way.

Wang Li's army and the alliance of the small princes who joined the Zang Tu tribe had several melee battles again, and Wang Li was not too happy with the results of more victories and fewer defeats, because he was well aware of one problem, that is, his military food supply had also begun to have problems.

Different from the two troops of Zhang Han and Zhang Jiashi, Zhang Han's Thorn Plains Battalion and the northeast area of Julu, where Zhang Jiashi's division is located, can be regarded as a relatively convenient environment for military grain transportation.

In a sense, the supply of grain and straw in the central region of Zhang Hanjun was relatively sufficient. Needless to say, since he did not have to worry about problems with the grain and harvest, Zhang Jiashi's supply of grain and grass was the most adequate among the three troops.

Zhang Hanjun, who should have had the most problem, has not yet exposed such a problem, but he Wang Li has to face the problem of decreasing military rations.

It's not that the harvest is okay in the areas under Wang Li's current control, where the grain production is not abundant and the damage is not too serious. And since it is not the problem of the grain itself, but because of the situation that the grain route is not smooth?

That's right, because Wang Lijun's grain road is basically to cross the Taihang Mountain to be able to reach Wang Li's camp, and Wang Li, who has to take into account a part of the grain and grass of Zhangping's army, can be said to be dumb and eat Coptis chinensis in a sense, and he can't say that he has bitterness.

He really wanted to find Zhang Han to reimburse such an additional expense, but Zhang Han didn't have time to deal with him at this time.

Zhang Han received a news that Li Si and his family in Xianyang were ordered by Zhao Gao to behead them outside the market.

Zhang Han, who heard the news, was so angry that he vomited blood directly.

And after hearing this, Wang Li was also stunned. Because he never thought that Zhao Gao would come to such a stupid thing at such a time.

Wang Lijun had to think about what he should do, if there was only one army left, he could run away. But he couldn't throw Zhang Jiashi in this place.

Looking at the still quite dilapidated city walls of Julu City, Wang Li sighed: "Alas. ”

"General, are you worried about Zhang Ping and Zhang Han?" a staff member knew very well the reason for Wang Li's sigh.

Wang Li nodded and said to this staff member: "That's right, maybe Zhang Ping won't know this news in a day or two, but once Zhang Ping gets this news, we will inevitably bear the brunt of it, facing the flank of two friendly forces that may rebel, this is not a thing that can be easily accepted." ”

After hearing Wang Li's words, this staff member thought for a while before he said: "In that case, why don't we get close to General Zuo's troops? You must know that in the entire Great Qin, the person who is most unlikely to betray Great Qin is General Zuo. ”

Wang Li naturally knew that General Zuo was referring to Zhang Jiashi, who had already been called king, and he did not say anything at this time, but fell into deep thought.

After a few minutes or so, Wang Li finally made up his mind: "Then do as you suggested." ”

After hearing Wang Li's words, this staff member turned around and left Wang Li's side to make corresponding arrangements.

After all, the camp of nearly 100,000 troops is easy to be chaotic if it is opened without detailed arrangements.

And Wang Li, who was quietly looking at Julu City, shook his head gently: "Do you want to help him?"

When Wang Li said that, he was not referring to other people, but Zhang Ping, who was stationed in the giant deer.

He felt good about Zhang Ping, a young man, and didn't want to meet the other party. But to really convince Zhang Ping, it is impossible not to explain things clearly, including Zhang Ping's wife, who was also killed by Zhao Gao......

It's just that for Zhang Ping, who should be angry the most, Wang Li is not sure that he will be able to convince the other party. You can't expect a fierce macho man to be able to stay calm when he hears the news that his mother, wife, and infant child were killed at the same time.

Wang Li was worried, he didn't want to send someone to die, but he didn't want to face Zhang Ping in the future.

He hopes that Zhang Ping can be the heir to his mantle, not someone who is likely to die on a battlefield without knowing when.

It's just that after thinking of such a thing, which is impossible for Zhang Ping's goal, Wang Li sighed softly again, turned around and walked silently on the road in the camp.

......

At the same time, Dong Peng was also very helpless, Zhang Han actually fainted directly in his position after receiving the news. This is not the point, the point is that after Zhang Han woke up, he did not get angry, but silently let them leave the big tent.

Although Dong Fei and Zhang Han didn't get along for too long, Dong Fei, who also knew Zhang Han's certain character, silently left Zhang Han's big tent after making eye contact with Sima Xin and a few other good friends.

Before parting, Dong Fei heard Sima Xin whisper to him: "General Dong, this matter may cause us to have a very big change, I don't know what General Dong thinks?"

Dong Fei glanced at Sima Xin, and a trace of vigilance involuntarily appeared in his heart. After thinking about it for a while, he looked around and whispered, "Sima Changshi, I naturally followed the general and acted closely. ”

After Sima Xin heard this, he took a deep look at Dong Fei, and he said slowly: "You really think so?"

Dong Fei patted the iron armor on his chest and said firmly: "Of course." ”

"However, why have I seen several times that some of the people in the team who contacted General Wang would leave the queue and rush towards General Zuo's camp?" Sima Xin smiled coldly: "General Dong, there are some things, maybe you don't need to say too much, if the general knows such a situation, I'm afraid General Dong will inevitably die." ”

"Sima Changshi, what are you going to do?" Dong Fei's forehead oozed fine beads of sweat slightly.

Sima Xin smiled, and then said to the others: "There are some things in General Dong's army, I'll go over and take a look." ”

The strength of the others was good, but they couldn't hear what was just being said between the two, and they didn't suspect that he went straight back to their camps.

......

In Dong Fei's tent, Sima Xin sat opposite Dong Fei and gently picked up the wine lord that exuded a somewhat strong aroma of wine.

After he took a sip of the liquor in the wine jue, he looked at Dong Fei opposite him and said slowly: "Since things have come to this point, I won't talk too much nonsense. General Dong, since you have a good relationship with General Zuo, and both of us are from Guanzhong, it is naturally impossible for us to do such things under this circumstance. ”

"......" Dong Fei looked at Sima Xin for a while, and finally said softly: "You want to take refuge in General Zuo, and I don't have the face to say anything about you." But Zhang Han won't let us go so easily. ”

"General Dong, Zhang Han is probably thinking about what to do now. "Sima Xin doesn't want to do things with Zhang Han anymore. This is also the situation that Sima Xin has speculated based on the current situation.

Zhang Han must be opposed, there is no doubt about such a thing, what Xianyang did, not to mention Zhang Han, and even many Qin army generals including Sima Xin felt that it was too much.

It's a pity that they are at home, even if they don't care about their own lives, they are worried about the safety of their families.

If something goes wrong, I'm afraid they will regret it too.

Therefore, he has a plan, that is, to break away from Zhang Hanjun with Dong Peng, and then take refuge in Zhang Jiashi's camp.

Maybe if you take refuge in Wang Li's camp, the situation will look much better. Because the relationship between Zhang Jiashi and Xianyang is also quite bad. But Sima Xin had a feeling that Wang Li was not as rumored, so obedient to Xianyang's orders, and even had some contact with Zhang Jiashi.

Sima Xin thinks that the latter statement is quite credible, because the left general Zhang Jiashi is also Wang Li's brother-in-law now.

If Wang Li takes refuge in Zhang Jiashi, the possibility that Zhang Jiashi can quickly settle in Dingguan is very high.

Because of such a lineup, it is almost equivalent to the main force of the entire Northern Frontier Army. But Sima Xin couldn't judge the facts through some circulating news, he could only use it to speculate and then spy on Dong Peng based on what he saw by chance.

What Sima Xin didn't expect at all was that Dong Peng and Zhang Jiashi really had some contact. In such a situation, Sima Xin was more relieved.

Therefore, he then said a sentence: "Zhang Han has been hit by Xiang Ji's fighting spirit, if it weren't for the desperate resistance of the lieutenant colonel by his side at that time, I'm afraid that the current Zhang Han is just a dead man with a different head." ”

Sima Xin said this, and smiled: "One thing, General Dong should be very clear that Zhang Han is now out of Xianyang, and the person who can take refuge can neither be General Wang Shang nor General Zuo, but will only be the Chu army opposite us." ”

After Dong Peng heard this, he couldn't help frowning: "Zhang Han killed Xiang Liang, Xiang Ji's uncle, I'm afraid that the other party will undoubtedly kill himself by doing this." ”

"If Xiang Ji really has the ambition to destroy Great Qin, he will not kill Zhang Han. Sima Xin said this sentence very firmly.

After Dong Fei heard this, he was slightly stunned, and he looked at Sima Xin puzzled: "This ...... Probably not. ”

Sima Xin smiled very confidently: "General Dong, since this is the case, we might as well have a gamble, and bet on whether Zhang Han will send someone to contact Xiang Ji." ”

After Dong Peng heard this suggestion, he also smiled slightly: "Since this is the case, General Ben naturally made a bet with Sima Changshi." ”

...................................................... Dividing Line................................................

In the next few days, Dong Peng and Sima Xin silently watched Zhang Han's actions. They knew that if Xianyang wanted to solve the problem of killing Zhang Han's family, he would inevitably solve Zhang Han to get rid of future troubles.

Therefore, it is very likely that Zhang Han will make trouble when the herald arrives.

But what made it difficult for the two to understand was that Wang Li actually led the army to gradually move closer to Zhang Jiashi's Liaodong Army camp. In such a situation, does Wang Li want to attack Zhang Jiashi?

This is not possible. Because of the other party's actions these days, as long as Zhang Jiashi is not stupid, he will naturally find such a situation.

And Zhang Jiashi's Liaodong Army did not react much, and it was more likely that Zhang Jiashi and Wang Li had some agreement or had already made contact.

Just after knowing such news, Zhang Han sent a henchman to the Chu army camp.

Knowing such a situation, Sima Xin and Dong Fei were waiting for the best opportunity to come.
