In the early morning, the sun had just emerged, the gate of Chuying in the east of Pengcheng slowly opened, and a team of soldiers holding Changge ran out of the gate, standing on both sides, and in a short time, the cavalry team led by Xiang Yu galloped through and went straight to the depths of the camp.

In the barracks everywhere, the soldiers had just gotten up, returned from the man's meal, and were gobbling up, but they saw that not far away, where the dust started, Xiang Yu rode his horse and went straight to the handsome account.

In less than half a pillar of incense, the drum of the assembly sounded in the camp, which was the rhythm of the expedition, many people scolded a few words angrily, and hurriedly ate the leftovers in the rice bowl, then picked up the weapon and went straight to the school field,

After the sound of the three drums, on the school field, 30,000 soldiers and horses were assembled, this army was Xiang Yu's descendant troops when he was the vanguard, but this time, he attacked Xiangcheng, he didn't need to take it all, but looked at the soldiers standing neatly below, and shouted loudly: "Yu Ziqi, Long And, you two go to order troops,"

The two of them sang their promises and walked towards several captains,

Half an hour later, the gate of the camp opened again, and the 20,000 Chu army marched towards the outside of the camp.

It can be said that this westward advance, Xiang Yu was extremely dissatisfied with Han Xin in his heart, seeing that the Chu army was going north on a large scale, he could fight with Zhang Han happily, but he killed Han Xin halfway, and only a few words, he said that he would move his uncle and change the marching strategy.

Especially sent himself to Xiangcheng, but let Xiang Zhuang replace him and continue to go north, Xiang Yu was somewhat taboo in his heart, which also made Xiang Yu have a layer of estrangement from Han Xin in his heart, and this estrangement will gradually swell, making the relationship between the two appear bigger cracks.

But angry is angry, Xiang Yu will not disobey his uncle's order because of this, this westward, Xiang Yu left Ji Bu in charge of the remaining soldiers and horses, and continued to go north with his uncle Xiang Liang, at this time Xiang Yu in his heart, he only hopes to end the battle of Xiangcheng as soon as possible, and go north as soon as possible to join his uncle,

At the same time that Xiang Yu sent his troops to the west, another army was slowly moving south along the ancient road of the Yellow River near Xiao County, their destination was Pengcheng, the banner of the Pei army was slightly shabby, and the soldiers were tired, about more than 10,000 people,

As the first general, he is Liu Bang, beside him, Xiao He, Fan Hao and a group of Wenchen generals followed closely, after they left Fengyi, they stayed at the foot of Dangshan for a few days, collected some remnants of the defeated generals, and scavenged some grain from the nearby villages, and then embarked on the road to the south.

If Liu Bang's army left a few days earlier, at this time, he was likely to meet Xiang Yu's army, but the meeting of two armies that had never been masked was definitely not a good thing in this era of closed news.

At this time, Liu Bang was speculating in his heart, how to say that he would accept himself, but Liu Bang knew very well that if he asked for help from Jingju, he would have to submit to him, although this was not what Liu Bang wanted, but all this was inevitable, blame, only blame himself for believing in the villains, and he would let Yongya garrison Pei County,

What made Liu Bang even more unbearable was that Wei actually took advantage of his northern expedition to insert a pole in his rear, if it weren't for Zhou City sending someone to provoke Yongya and borrow his three guts, he wouldn't dare to rebel against himself.

Thinking like this, the anger in Liu Bang's heart burned again, he couldn't help swinging his fist and slamming his right leg, although the movement was small, it still alarmed Xiao He and the others behind him, at this time, Xiao He had already accelerated his horse speed, came to Liu Bang's side, and arched his hand and said: "Don't be annoyed, the victory and defeat are impermanent, we will have a chance in the future,"

Xiao He's persuasion, although he could not untie Liu Bang's heart knot, but at this time Liu Bang's mood had calmed down a lot, he looked up at the front, endless galloping, I don't know when I will arrive in Pengcheng,

Moreover, the matter has come to this, regret is useless, Liu Bang is very clear, let out a long breath, Liu Bang looked up at the front, galloping on the road, vaguely can be seen, several people on horseback, are running in his direction, Liu Bang immediately became vigilant, he couldn't help but stop fighting, the army that opened the way in front also began to line up,

Those people got closer and closer, and Liu Bang finally saw clearly that it was Zhou Bo who was going to Pengcheng, and at this time he had come to the front, and said on the horse: "Lord, I just arrived in Pengcheng, and I learned that half a month ago, Qi Jingju had been wiped out by the Jiangdong Chu army, and at this time, Pengcheng had been owned by Xiang Liang,"

The news brought back by Zhou Bo surprised Liu Bang, he couldn't help but turn around and look at Xiao He, although he didn't say anything, Xiao He had already seen from Liu Bang's stunned eyes that he was at a loss at this time, where to go, Liu Bang was asking for his opinion,

Now the situation has become more complicated, Xiao He is also a little helpless, he didn't expect that the powerful Eastern Chu State could be so easily wiped out by the Chu army, besides, Qi Jingju is also a member of the Chu king's family, and it is the orthodox '羋' surname, could it be that Xiang Liang has already decided to support the army and stand on his own,

After a short period of thought, Xiao He decisively rejected his absurd idea, if Xiang Liang had the heart to stand on his own, I am afraid that when he was in Jiangdong, he would already be on one side, otherwise, he would not be stupid enough to buy people's hearts after crossing the river, then there must be some reason,

But no matter what the reason, Xiang Liang's strength is stronger than that of Xiang Jingju, this is an indisputable fact, and now, since Xiang Jingju has been defeated, then he might as well let Liu Bang go to Xiang Liang, and Xiang Liang can defeat the Eastern Chu army, naturally, it can also help Liu Bang recapture Pei County,

Thinking like this, Xiao He looked at Liu Bang a little helplessly, and said in a deep voice: "Since the situation has changed, the lord might as well visit Xiang Liang, if Xiang Liang is willing to accept the lord, we are looking for an opportunity to ask him for help in Pei County, how about it?"

"Continue to Pengcheng," Liu Bang hesitated slightly, and on the side, Zhou Bo interjected: "Lord, I heard that Xiang Liang has led the army north, and if we want to see him, we must also go north to find the main force of the Chu army,"

Hearing Zhou Bo say that Xiang Liang was not in Pengcheng, Liu Bang felt a little lost in his heart, he bowed his head again and pondered, weighing the pros and cons, on the side, Xiao He said: "The lord can see Xiang Liang first, peek at his ambitions, and then make a decision, if the Xiang family can rely on, the lord may wish to borrow troops as an excuse to ask for troops to return to Junpei County, if Xiang Liang is ill-intentioned and refuses to help, it is not too late for the lord to find an opportunity to get out,"

was said by Xiao Heyi, Liu Bang finally made up his mind, turned his horse's head, and ordered: "Okay, turn around and head north,"

,,,,,,

On the west bank of the Si River, a team of more than 3,000 people slowly moved forward, the military uniform of this team was uniformly brown, and on more than 100 flagpoles, there was a big 'Han' character in the book, and the main general of this team was Zhang Liang.

It can also be said that this is a messy team, they don't have any military discipline, but the clothing is relatively uniform, in this team, many of them are dead soldiers raised by Zhang Liang, and some of them are some of the mercenaries recruited by Zhang Liang in Xiapi and other places in recent years, and they have followed Zhang Liang for some years.

Since Chen Sheng's uprising, Zhang Liang has also been tempted, taking the opportunity to follow Chen Sheng, waiting for the opportunity to recover South Korea, but soon after, Chen Shenghuang // prostitution and killing poor partners, which makes Zhang Liang think that Chen Sheng is not a person who has become a big thing after all.

After that, Zhang Liang devoted himself to planning, waiting for the opportunity, recruiting troops, building weapons, selecting flags, and finally, the land of Shandong entered a period of full-scale riot, he had the intention to take refuge in the state of Qianjingju, first seek a position in the state of Chu, wait for the opportunity, and then try to recover South Korea, but who knows, when Zhang Liang went to the next minister, a bad news came, the land of Jingju was defeated and fled, and the Eastern Chu State was defeated,

And the one who defeated Jin Jingju was actually the Jiangdong Chu Army, the Xiang family who had an indissoluble bond with Zhang Liang, which made Zhang Liang happy and worried, the happy thing is that he can rely on his relationship with Xiang Bo to visit the Chu Army, he is seeking a strategy to restore the country, and the worry is that Xiang Liang is a person, and it is difficult for him to take advantage of this person.

But no matter what, Zhang Liang decided to visit Xiang Liang first, and then set a stop.

At this time, Zhang Liang had ordered his son Zhang Budo to listen clearly, Xiang Liang was in the Fuyang area at this time, and he led the army to the north again.

After another distance, the soldiers and horses in front were restless, Zhang hesitated in his conscience, led a few relatives to run forward, just came to the front of the team, only to see in the distance, a group of soldiers and horses lined up, Zhang Liang couldn't help but be surprised, whose troops are this,

A pro-rider rode out of the horse, and asked the other party about the origin in front, and soon, the pro-entourage returned and said: "General, the front is Pei Gong Liu Bang's troops, they think that when they encounter the Qin army, they will be ready to fight, at this time Pei Gong wants to invite the general to speak,"

Listening to the report from his relatives, Zhang Liang couldn't help but be surprised: "Liu Bang,"

Behind him, Zhang Budo heard Liu Bang's name and couldn't help laughing: "Father, I once had a relationship with Liu Bang, I was in the Daze area at the time, and now I have been parting for some years,"

Seeing that his son knew Liu Bang, Zhang Liang couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay, you can go over with me,"

Next to the Si River, a tent was temporarily erected, Liu Bang set up some simple wine and food to entertain Zhang Liang, Zhang Liang and Zhang Budo just sat down, Liu Bang smiled and greeted the two, and Zhang Budo continued to part, at this time, a personal entourage poured wine for everyone, Liu Bang raised his glass and laughed: "I toast two glasses,"

Liu Bang was originally a greedy person, and when he got wine at this time, he couldn't help but drink a few more glasses, and when he was slightly drunk, Liu Bang asked with a smile: "I don't know where General Zhang is going,"

Zhang Liang talked to Liu Bang for the first time, and he would leave some leeway, at this time, he played with the wine glass in his hand, thought for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "I have plans to take refuge in Xiang Liang, this time I want to go north, I want to go to Fuyang and visit Xiang Liang,"

Hearing Zhang Liang mention Xiang Liang, Liu Bang couldn't help laughing and said: "Coincidentally, I also went to visit Xiang Liang, why don't we go north together,"

Liu Bang also wanted to defect to Xiang Liang, which made Zhang Liang a little surprised, and he couldn't help asking: "I have always heard that Pei Gong is stationed in Pei County and has never traveled far, why did he suddenly go north this time?"

Seeing Zhang Liang ask, Liu Bang said a little helplessly: "It's not a secret, when I fought with the Qin army again, my subordinate general Yongya betrayed me and raised troops to defect, causing me to be displaced now, and I had to ask Xiang Liang for revenge,"

Liu Bang said to ask for help Xiang Liang, to Zhang Liang's surprise, Pei County rebelled, Liu Bang lost his foundation, in this situation, Liu Bang can deal with it calmly, and switch to Xiang Liang, it can be seen that Liu Bang's city is very deep, and he can endure humiliation and burden, this person is extraordinary,

After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Liang smiled and said, "If Xiang Liang refuses to borrow troops, what will happen to the public?"

"This ......" Liu Bang hesitated slightly, and after a while, Liu Bang gritted his teeth and said: "If Duke Liang refuses to help, I should find another foundation and resist the Qin army, in short, the world is big, there is always a place for me Liu Bang to sacrifice,"

"Good ambition," Zhang Liang couldn't help but get up and praise, he will return to the country one day, maybe Liu Bang will be his help, Zhang Liang decided at this moment, deep friendship with this person, thinking of this, Zhang Liang picked up the wine jug and poured the wine in the cup, laughed and said: "I have an old friend with the Xiang family, and I am willing to help Pei Gong, I don't know what Pei Gong wants,"

"Great," Liu Bang also got up and said with a smile: "If you can get General Zhang's help, this matter will be ......"

The two of them each drank a full cup, and chatted about the art of war, governing the country, destroying Qin and other things, the two talked about everything, and the relationship gradually became closer, Zhang Liang found from Liu Bang's speech and demeanor that Liu Bang was not satisfied with a guard, and the Taigong Art of War that he had seen was said to be inferred by Liu Bang every time, and what he said was reasonable, which made Zhang Liang feel that Liu Bang's wisdom was absolutely innate, and it was granted by God.

Talking about the afternoon, the two roads of soldiers and horses merged, slowly marching north, on the way, Zhang Liang also said that he was bent on recovering South Korea, Liu Bang praised it, promised Zhang Liang, if he can help in the future, he will go all out,
