Chapter 139: Counting the poor Mu Ling Pass
Xiang Yu was very puzzled by Xiang Bo's sudden mention of Fusu, even if he racked his brains, he couldn't think of a reason, since they attacked Jiujiang County, they had never seen a shadow of the Qin army under Fusu, why did Xiang Bo suddenly mention Fusu at this time? After thinking about it for a while, Xiang Yu didn't figure it out, so he simply threw a look at Xiang Bo for help, hoping that Xiang Bo could answer his doubts.
In Xiang Bo's opinion, although Xiang Yu has the courage to be invincible, he is still much worse in strategy. Although Fusu did not participate in the attack between their Jiangdong and Zhang Han and other old Huhai tribes at the moment, it did not mean that Fusu would sit back and watch them Jiangdong annex several counties. Raise your fingers and brush it up, in just a few years, there are not a few open and secret battles between them Jiangdong and Fusu, and Fusu He has suffered a little loss.
If it were according to the temperament of the Fusu chicken thief, they would never tolerate their Jiangdong annexing the land of several counties under the former Hu Hai. At this time, the reason why Fusu chose to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight was nothing more than to see the fight between Jiangdong and Zhang Han, and when Jiangdong and Zhang Han fought for defeat, Fusu would definitely decisively send troops and seize the excellent opportunity for the fisherman to profit in one fell swoop? And Jiangdong and Zhang Han have become fish on the chopping board of Fusu. At that time, for Fusu, whether it was Zhang Han or Xiang, they were all pinched by him, if the situation was favorable, he could annihilate Jiangdong and Zhang Han in one fell swoop, and if the situation was unfavorable, he could also take the opportunity to easily recapture one or two of the three counties of Jiujiang from Jiangdong.
According to Xiang Bo's analysis, if Fusu chooses to exterminate them Jiangdong and Zhang Han together, it will still be a good thing. Because in Xiang Bo's view, neither Zhang Han nor their Jiangdong are Fusu's opponents, once Fusu makes a move against the two of them at the same time, then they and Zhang Han will stand opposite Fusu. In the face of this situation, whether it was their Xiang clan or Zhang Han, there was no other way but to choose to join forces, which invisibly contributed to the alliance between Zhang Han and their Jiangdong. If he wants to let Jiangdong come to face Fusu alone, Xiang Bo really has no confidence, if he joins forces with Zhang Han, Xiang Bo still has the confidence to fight with Fusu.
I am afraid that Fusu will choose to give up on exterminating the two of them, but take the opportunity to seize one or two of the three counties such as Jiujiang from them, and at that time their Jiangdong will be completely in a dilemma, with Fusu's ability, as long as there are one or two counties in hand, they can easily cut off the back road of their Jiangdong army and completely cut off the connection between them and the hinterland of Jiangdong. At that time, they Jiangdong will not only have to give up the three counties such as Jiujiang County that they just occupied, but I am afraid that it will also affect the hinterland of Jiangdong.
"Alas......"
Thinking of these, and then looking at Xiang Yu, who was full of bravery, Xiang Bo sighed helplessly, if he competed for the world with a brainless person like Hu Hai, he might have some chance of winning by force, but it was a pity that it was not Hu Hai who was in charge of the authority of Great Qin, but Fusu, who was wise and demonic, and fought for the world with Fusu, and Xiang Yu's brave spirit became a fatal weakness.
"Yu'er, do you really think that Fusu will sit back and watch my Jiangdong annex these counties? You've also fought with Fusu a few times, can't you see Fusu's cunning? According to Fusu's cunning, it is the extreme that Jiangdong can capture the land of these three counties, although Fusu did not send a single soldier to this Donghai County at this time, it does not mean that Fusu did not pay attention to the battle between us and Zhang Han. ”
"Think about it, if my Jiangdong 50,000 troops were dragged to death by Zhang Han under the Muling Pass, and Fusu learned the news, what do you think he would do with Fusu at that time, once the Qin Huben army was dispatched, then how should I Jiangdong deal with myself? Give up Muling Pass, the blood of my Jiangdong disciples will be shed in vain, if I don't give up, in the face of the two-sided attack of the Huben army and Zhang Han, my 50,000 Jiangdong children will be killed and wounded. ”
After hearing such a detailed analysis by Xiang Bo, Xiang Yu was silent, but the unwillingness on his face was so clear.
After a moment of silence, Xiang Yu still mustered up the courage to express his opinions and plans: "Uncle, if it is really as you said, this Muling Pass is indeed not suitable for attacking. It's just that my nephew still doesn't know anything, if Fusu really wants to take the opportunity to make a move, why don't you send troops when my Jiangdong foothold is not stable, but instead send troops at this time? At this time, my Jiangdong has already established a solid foundation in Jiujiang County and other places, in my nephew's opinion, even if my Jiangdong can't capture Muling Pass for a while, aren't these three counties still in our hands, even if Fusu suddenly sends troops, we will not soon fall into a desperate situation. As long as my uncle can hold these three counties for ten days, my nephew will definitely be able to break through the Muling Pass, and then I will lead the army back to help, and I will definitely be able to strangle the Tiger Ben army under this Shouchun City. ”
"Yu'er, fighting on the battlefield is not child's play, let's not talk about whether you can take Muling Pass within ten days, even if you can take it, can the casualties of my Jiangdong disciples under Muling Pass be small? My uncle used to call you the game of Go, have you forgotten? If a soldier is a game, he must take one step and see three steps in order to be invincible! ”
No matter how reasonable and well-founded Xiang Bo is, he can't erase the unwillingness in Xiang Yu's heart. Since Jiujiang County, Zhang Han has never been bargained for in the hands of Xiang Yu, and retreated all the way to this Muling Pass. This also invisibly strengthened Xiang Yu's arrogance, and made Xiang Yu have a lot of contempt for Zhang Han in his heart. Now that he is blocked in Muling Pass, Xiang Yu has been holding his breath in his heart.
"Uncle, nephew still have a word, I don't know if to say it or not?" Xiang Yu said unwillingly.
"Say it!"
Seeing that Xiang Yu had a lot of unwillingness on his face, and he had to put forward his own opinions, Xiang Bo couldn't refuse, so he had to patiently let Xiang Yu say it.
"Uncle, although I, Jiangdong, have suffered many losses at the hands of Fusu, you are not so afraid of Fusu, right? Now that my Jiangdong has won the land of the three counties, the peak of the army is flourishing, and it is better to wait if I don't attack Muling Pass at this time. This time the nephew came to you to seek a way to break the pass, not to listen to your ambition to grow Fusu, even if Fusu sent the Tiger Army, the nephew was confident that he could break through the Muling Pass before the arrival of the Qin State Tiger Army. ”
"Confused ......"
For Xiang Yu's remarks of courage and ruthlessness, Xiang Bo couldn't listen to it anymore.
"Xiang Yu, how can you be so confused? Your uncle's death was caused by your quick moment, and at such a cost, have you not been taught? Do you still want to kill all these 50,000 Jiangdong children? Do you think that Fusu will only be brave for a moment like you? If I am Fusu and meet a brave person like you, I am ashamed to be your enemy, and I am blindly brave, except for affecting others, what is the use? ”
"This ......"
Xiang Boyan As for this, Xiang Yu no longer had the arrogance he had before, so he had to bow his head stupidly, Xiang Liang's death has always been an indelible pain in Xiang Yu's heart.
"Uncle, it's my nephew who is reckless, and I ask my uncle to forgive me. It's just that at the moment, Zhang Han refuses to guard Muling Pass, how to deal with this matter, and ask my uncle to have an idea. After a moment of silence, Xiang Yu took the initiative to admit his mistake to Xiang Bo, and asked again about the strategy to capture Muling Pass.
