Xiang Yu is not familiar with Luoling, because he has always been in contact with Luoling is Xiang Liang, but Xiang Yu knows that Luoling values him very much, and has praised himself many times for having the atmosphere of a holy king.

Luo Ling sat under the tree, looking at the heroic Xiang Yu, feeling a little pity, Xiang Liang is like a scabbard, can put Xiang Yu's extremely sharp knife in the sheath, not let him show his edge wantonly, and even hurt himself by mistake.

"After talking to Duke Chu? Come and sit. ”

Luo Ling greeted Xiang Yu, he was almost ten years older than Xiang Yu, and he was half an elder.

Xiang Yu has respect for Luoling, not only because of Luo's identity, but mainly because Luoling is more kind to him, and when he heard this, he sat opposite Luoling and saluted: "Duke Luo." ”

Luo Ling muttered: "The Duke of Chu has passed away, you are the new Duke of Chu, and the princes of the Huimeng will all approve of it." ”

After Xiang Liang's death, what kind of face Xiang Yu used to face the princes was a very important matter, he was not as prestigious as Xiang Liang, and his prestige was not enough to unify the power of Chu, and he had to be supported by a strong person.

Luo Ling's words are to say to Xiang Yu, I will fully support you, and then you can start to contact the Chu forces under Xiang Liang's command.

"The dead have passed away, the living should always move forward, the Luo clan and the Xiang clan both have a great enmity with the Qin state, and they should fight bravely to be the first to overthrow the tyrannical Qin.

You are a born soldier master, is the best candidate to destroy the Qin Dynasty, this is the mission given to you by Haotian and King Su, and when you make immortal achievements, you can become the co-master of the world in front of the people of the world.

At that time, the ancestors of the entire Xiang clan will be proud of you, and the Duke of Chu will definitely be able to look at you. ”

Luo Ling's words, almost every sentence reached Xiang Yu's heart, Xiang Yu gritted his teeth when he heard this, and said: "Luo Gong rest assured, I know the priorities in my heart, now is the critical period for the destruction of Qin, and I will not hold back.

For more than 800 years, the Xiang family has always faced difficulties, in the past Wu State broke the Yingdu, the ancestors covered the king and the queen mother to die, and the ancestors flooded Jing Chu in vain, and the ancestors fought with their lives.

Although the talent is not as good as the ancestors, there is still the ability to put life and death aside, and the reputation of the Xiang family will not be buried in the hands of the family. ”

Xiang Yu is most proud of his family background in this life, he is too proud, he wants to fight for the Xiang family for the highest glory in the world, what Qin country is not in his eyes, the only thing that can make him look up is Luo's.

Luo Ling nodded secretly, what he liked the most was Xiang Yu's ambition, and he saluted with his crossed hands: "Duke Chu, may King Su be with you." ”

Xiang Yu was stunned, this was the first time Luo Ling used an honorific title for him, and directly called him Duke Chu, Xiang Yu reacted, and also crossed his hands and said: "May King Su be with me." ”

……

Since Xiang Liang's death, the princes of Chu have been mourned one by one, and they really can't believe it, Chu is about to rule the world, and they, the nobles of Chu State, are going to rise to the top, but they didn't expect to suddenly suffer such a major blow.

Xiang Liang's death was not only his own, but also caused casualties in the Chu army, although there were still a large number of children in the hometown of Chu, especially in the core area of Jiangdong, who were willing to join the army, but the Xiang family cherished these Jiangdong children very much, and they had always been trained before going to the battlefield.

This caused the Chu State to be short of strength for at least a year in the future, leaving only the Chu army under Xiang Yu to rely on.

When Luo Ling and Xiang Yu walked in, they were faced with the sad nobles of the Chu State, and when they saw Luo Ling walking in, they all got up and saluted, and Luo Ling said directly: "Gentlemen, before the death of Chu Gongliang, entrusted me to let Xiang Yu inherit the position of the head of the Xiang family, and I will call him the Duke of Chu." ”

Luoling calls Xiang Yu as the Duke of Chu, which is to recognize Xiang Yu's inheritance of Xiang Liang's position among the heroes of Shandong, if they are unwilling to surrender to Xiang Yu, it is not to give Luoling face.

Everyone looked at the mighty Xiang Yu and looked at each other a few times, now the Chu State has suffered a heavy setback, and the most elite is only the tens of thousands of Chu troops under Xiang Yu's command, if they don't give face to Luoling, and don't follow Xiang Yu's footsteps, not only the princes of Shandong, even among the Chu State, there is no status for them.

So everyone saluted Xiang Yu directly: "Meet Duke Chu!" ”

Xiang Yu, who accepted everyone's worship, was not very happy, but said directly aloud: "I saw that all the monarchs were sighing just now, presumably because of the previous failure.

But I want to say that it was just a small failure, and it really didn't deserve such a long sigh.

The state of Chu was just a sub-country a thousand years ago, and its ancestors laid down 5,000 miles of land with a knife and a knife to open the mountains and forests.

Now that we have two thousand miles of fertile land in Jiangdong and millions of people, do we still need to be afraid of the tyrannical Qin?

Defeat is just another battle, and it is not easy to achieve the current results, do you want to give it up?

If we retreat now, who will repay the hatred of the children of Jiangdong? Who will avenge so many Chu people who died in the hands of the tyrannical Qin? ”

These words made everyone's faces turn red, and Long He had a strong temperament, and immediately said: "Duke Chu, and I am willing to follow you and fight with the Qin army, please don't say it." ”

Xiang Yu walked up to him and patted him heavily and said, "Okay! This is a good man in the Chu State, my uncle often mentions you to me, saying that you can fight well, and you are a rare general in the Chu State, attack Zhang Han, and you will be my deputy. ”

Luo Ling stood quietly aside, his words were very few, most of the time he was observing, observing everything he could see, which was one of the fundamentals of his exhaustive strategy.

……

Xiang Yu had 20,000 elite Chu troops, plus the rout army collected by these Chu nobles, and the army left by Xiang Liang to Xiang Yu, the Chu army totaled 80,000, and as the Chu army began to assemble again, the clouds of war condensed again over Handan County.

Xiang Yu and Luo Ling stayed together, in Luo Ling's script, the protagonist of this war was naturally Xiang Yu, the master of the army, and the elite of the Chu army led by him, and what he was responsible for was to force Zhang Han to fight a decisive battle.

In fact, Xiang Yu, as a natural commander, clearly said when he came to Zhao Di, "Since Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, Zhang Han is best at defending, even if it is an attack, he also uses the method of pretending to be defeated to lure the enemy deep, so if you want to win, you must fight him head-on."

With the courage of Wanfu, he is best at this kind of confrontation on the frontal battlefield, but if you want to force Zhang Han to fight a decisive battle, you must cut off his food routes and reinforcements, which requires Luo Gong to do it. ”

Luo Ling nodded and said: "The hero sees the same, what the Duke of Chu said is exactly what Ling wants to do, the princes have already arrived around Zhang Han, and according to the plan, they will start to attack Zhang Han's grain road, at most Zhang Han will not be able to hold on to a head-on battle with us in a few months." ”

Among the entire Shandong princes, only Xiang Liang and Luo Ling have the prestige to lead the princes, but Xiang Liang's ability is not enough, so with Luo Ling as the commander-in-chief, it is time to play the role of the alliance.

In this war, of course, the most pressure is Xiang Yu, because whether it is an attack on the grain road or a small-scale battle, it will not affect the overall situation, these things are like a test before the big exam, and they will eventually fall into the final battle.

Once Zhang Han can't be defeated in the final decisive battle on the frontal battlefield, everything he has done before will be useless, and it will even become a joke.

A battle report was sent to Luoling, and at the same time to command so many soldiers and horses belonging to different princes, it was a test for anyone, especially to adjust the tactical and strategic goals according to the changes in the situation, even Luoling felt a trace of pressure.

Zhang Han obviously felt the change in the situation, he was a real asset, several times the entire era of heroes, there were not many who could beat him, one by one Shandong princes were cruising around Zhao Di, of course he understood that he had become a thorn in the side of the Shandong princes.

But Zhang Han was not afraid, but said very happily to the left and right: "In the past, when the widow was a young man, how could you ever think that one day you could stir up the world like now?"

Your Majesty is the king for me, and Daqin's Sheji is on the shoulders of the widow, which must be the highest glory as a courtier.

Defeating these traitors, killing them, and then bringing their heads back to Xianyang, presumably can deter the people of the world, and use the sword in the hands of the widows to open peace for Great Qin. ”

Zhang Han was full of confidence, and then the news that the grain road was attacked made him anxious, these actions could not directly defeat him, and as long as he wanted, he could retreat directly to Xingyang, where was the big granary, of course, he would naturally not do that.

It is precisely because of this that Zhang Han felt very incomprehensible about the behavior of Luo Ling and others, this was a completely thankless thing, and it was not the original annihilation of the Zhao army, surrounded by mountains, once the grain road was cut off, he couldn't run.

Zhang Han could leave here with the army at any time, he thought about it, and finally came to a conclusion that made him a little unbelievable, "This group of traitors in Shandong wants to fight again?" Is this forcing the widows to fight them in a decisive battle? ”

No wonder Zhang Han is unbelievable, but he doesn't know why the Shandong States are so confident, the army of Chu has just been defeated, and the army of Zhao has also suffered heavy losses, normally speaking, at least the army must be sorted out and the strength restored.

It's only been less than a month, and it's absolutely impossible to recover your strength, and it's just crazy to start the next big war.

How did he know that Luo Ling and Xiang Yu couldn't wait to kill him, and then went all the way to the west, and they didn't want to waste a little bit of time at all.

Zhang Han was a little hesitant to fight again directly, and in hesitation, he began to organize the army to clear out the Shandong princes who participated in the attack on the grain route.

Zhang Han is a master of fighting the rebel army, and basically everyone has suffered a lot of losses, but Luo Ling's goal is still steadily completed, because no one dares to disobey Luo Ling's orders at this time, Luo Ling almost declared the importance of this war to everyone in the strongest tone.

————

Zhang Han was a seriously underestimated commander, and his contemporaries praised him as "the white rising Asia", and the ancients never omitted it when evaluating famous generals, which is enough to prove his natural talent.

He was born when the Qin Dynasty was about to be destroyed, and he destroyed countless Shandong uprisings, and almost wanted to revive the Qin Dynasty, but fate did not favor him, and his opponents were Xiang Yu and Luo Ling, who were extremely strong throughout history, which was doomed to failure. - "The Destruction of the Empire: The State of Qin"
