Since Zhang Liang burned the plank road, the Han army was once immersed in turmoil, most of the Han army came from Guandong or Guanzhong, they missed their homeland, the reason why they entered the customs with Liu Bang was largely forced by Liu Bang's power, and some people thought that Liu Bang would make a comeback, and they also hoped to follow Liu Bang and establish some merits.

But the plank road was burned, the retreat was cut off, and there was a wave of escape in the army, many people cried, scolded angrily, and even quietly fled from the army, fleeing from the winding mountain road to the audience, which made Liu Bang even more depressed, and ordered the three armies to be strictly banned, led by Zhou Bo and Li Shang to patrol, and the deserters were all beheaded to show the public, shocking the three armies.

Immediately, Liu Bang ordered, the three armies accelerated their advance, and after half a month, the Han army arrived in Nanzheng, and the three armies built camps on the spot.

In the western suburbs, Liu Bang ascended the altar to succeed to the throne as the king of Han, and Feng Xiao was the prime minister, and the generals were promoted in turn.

Xishu was not peaceful, Liu Bang ordered, Fan Xu as the general, Lu Xuan, Zhou Bo as the deputy general, led 50,000 troops, pacified Xishu, made a list of the people, and let Xiao He Tuntian, help the people of Hanzhong, help the people of Hanzhong to settle down, recuperate, and prepare for returning to Guanzhong in the future.

……

Leaving Guanzhong, taking the Dan River, Xiang Zhuang's 3,000 troops rushed south, until they went out of Wuguan, Xiang Zhuang's speed was really slowed down, since the separation from the large army, farewell to Liu Bang, half a month has passed,

At the current speed, in two hours, you can reach Deng County, Deng County is the later Xiangyang, after Deng County, go south of Yan County, you can reach Jiangling,

If Xiang Zhuang's heart was still a little depressed when he just left the martial arts, and at this time, Xiang Zhuang had put aside the major rights and wrongs and the grievances and hatreds of various countries in his heart.

Not far ahead, is the vast Han River, and there, will be directly connected to the Yangtze River, fishing boats coming and going endlessly, here, should be the style of the south of the Yangtze River,

Xiang Zhuang did not pay attention to the surrounding scenery before, since the first battle of Changsha, all the way to the north, Xiang Zhuang considered more, is to enter the Guanzhong before Liu Bang, but the destiny is difficult to violate, Xiang Zhuang is finally slow behind Liu Bang, and the Hongmen banquet, the burning of the Afang Palace are coming as scheduled, then, the next step, will be the dispute between Chu and Han, all countries will be in the war, who can rise in the war, who can rise in the war, who can be vigorous, dominate the world, this is the real heart knot of Xiang Zhuang,

According to the secret report that Li Ji has given himself over the years, he has iron weapons at this time, no less than tens of thousands, if the army can be trained strictly, Jiangdong County will be an unstoppable elite army, although the oil is still being developed, and the oil has not been extracted to a flammable state, but Xiang Zhuang knows that the appearance of oil will not be too far,

In silent contemplation, Xiang Zhuang and others came to the river port located east of Deng County, the general Gui Yinghao had already raised dozens of fishing boats in the river port, and the army was also crossing the river in an orderly manner.

Xiang Zhuang was interrupted by Kong Ji to ponder, he looked up, and couldn't help but smile dryly: "The army is marching, if everyone needs to take a boat, if they want to rush to the aid of Nanyang, how long will it take?"

"If the warships are ready, within two days, from Deng County to Wan County, it will not be a problem," Kong Ji was surprised, but he still said what he thought in his heart, Xiang Zhuang nodded slightly, and Le Ma walked to the side of the dirt bag, on the soil bag, you can see the river port and the continuous ships in front of you, the rushing Han water is endless, at this time, Xiang Zhuang looked at Kong Ji and Ying Liang who were following aside, and said with a smile: "If I build three bridges here and rush to help Wan County, how long will it take?"

Both of them looked at Xiang Zhuang in astonishment, they didn't know what medicine was sold in Xiang Zhuang's gourd, but if there was a bridge for the army to pass, it would reduce the time for the army to board the ship, so calculated, it would not take a day for the cavalry to run to Wanxian, thinking of this, Kong Ji secretly shook his head and said: "But has the general thought about it, such a vast river, a wide river, how can we build a bridge,"

"I heard that there is a buffer zone downstream, where the riverbed is low and shallow, and the river channel is not wide, if I open up the source and throttle the flow, slow down the impact of the river, not to mention three bridges, even if there are ten, what is the difficulty," Xiang Zhuang said confidently, the soldiers on the side handed over a map, Xiang Zhuang took the map, jumped off the horse, threw the map on the ground, and said with a smile: "Look at it, this is what I said,"

"But...... However, there is so much labor, where is the general going to recruit it from, besides, Gongao has been appointed as the king of Linjiang, and Nanjun belongs to his fiefdom, has the general thought about it, will he disobey the yin and yang?"

After a pause, Kong Ji said again: "Although Gongao once followed the general and fought a hundred battles, and now he divides Nanjun, and he is also favored by the general, but people are greedy after all, and I am very worried...... Once these three bridges are completed, they will become an important way for Liu Bang to go south,"

Kong Ji's worries are not unreasonable, but Xiang Zhuang has made up his mind, this matter, he will not give up lightly, at this time Xiang Zhuang looked at the map again, these three bridges, not only to gallop to help Nanyang County, if he is a day Chu Han to compete for power, the three bridges in Nanjun will become an important way for him to enter the army, and even in a critical time, it will become an important opportunity to reverse the situation, Xiang Zhuang will definitely not give up these three bridges,

"Whether to build a bridge, I will look at Gongao's attitude, and then make a decision," Xiang Zhuang put away the map, handed it to the soldiers, and replied decisively, no more, at this time, he untied the water bladder from Ma'anshan, took a big drink, and looked at the surrounding scenery, and then ordered: "Get on the horse, we cross the river,"

……

There are three days, Xiang Zhuang and other 3,000 people finally came to Jiangling City, at this time the city is hung high red silk, a pole of cyan flags fluttering in the wind, this is the competition of the Linjiang army, and Gong Ao is also not long ago, ascended the altar to call the king, at this time self-proclaimed king of Linjiang,

The military robe of the Linjiang army is also mainly blue, at this time the soldiers who hold high Changge greet both sides of the city gate, Gong Ao personally drove the horse, and his son co-captain, Prime Minister Murong Zun, the general Lei Tong, Dou Lin and others waited in front of the city gate, not far away, under the red banner, Xiang Zhuang and others drove horses, Gong Ao was excited, immediately raised his right hand, ordered: "Drums,"

"Knock Knock"

The rumbling drum sounded, this is the drum to welcome the guests, and soon, Xiang Zhuang and others rode their horses to line up a hundred steps away, the formation was neat, the military armor was bright, and everyone was murderous, which made the Linjiang army admire.

Soon, Gong Ao took everyone and dismounted to meet him, and when he was more than 30 steps away from Xiang Zhuang, Gong Ao took the lead in kneeling on one knee and arched his hand: "The last general Gong Ao, meet the king of Dongchu,"

"I've seen the King of Eastern Chu later,"

"Why should the King of Linjiang be like this," Xiang Zhuang didn't expect Gongao to perform this big gift at first, but at this time he hurriedly dismounted, and Kong Ji and others hurriedly greeted him, Xiang Zhuang held up Gongao with one hand, and said with a smile: "The King of Linjiang and I are both princes for a while, why bother to depreciate your identity, this is absolutely unacceptable,"

"I was originally from the general's command, this time the king of Linjiang was honored, and it was also given by the defeat of the king of Eastern Chu, I don't know in my heart, in front of the king of Eastern Chu, I dare not have half a point of overstepping, nor dare I have half a point of disrespect, the king of East Chu has a tired journey, please rest with me in the city, I have set up a banquet for the king of East Chu to catch the wind,"

Gong Ao's humility, let Xiang Zhuang see his sincerity, if the wealth is unswerving, at this moment, Gong Ao has done it, if Xiang Zhuang is still hesitating for Kong Ji's words just now, then at this time, Xiang Zhuang has completely made up his mind, the three bridges in Deng County, must be repaired,

At this time, Gongao and others have brought war horses, together with Xiang Zhuang and others, to the city, when they are about to reach the city gate, the low horn sound blows from the city, every time it blows, the Linjiang army in front of the city gate will shout loudly: "Welcome to the ...... of the king of Eastern Chu"

With the sound of drums and horns, everyone marched into Jiangling, if Xiang Zhuang did not know what Jiangling City looked like before, at this time, Xiang Zhuang can only be described with a 'like' word, here extends in all directions, and it is a water and land fortress, no wonder all dynasties and dynasties will be in the land of Jiangling, Datun money and grain, has been needed everywhere,

Across the street, everyone came to a tall mansion, at this time the Linjiang palace has not been repaired, Gongao can only live here, although it is a mansion, but its scale is grand, it will not lose to any palace,

When the guards guarding the gate saw Xiang Zhuang and the others coming, they immediately raised their weapons and shouted loudly: "Welcome to the King of Eastern Chu,"

It can be seen from what he saw and heard along the way that Gong Ao had prepared for his visit to Jiangling this time, and he had worked hard, not to mention whether Gong Ao was cramming Buddha feet and cheating, only his attitude towards himself was worthy of affirmation, at this time through the long corridor and the front hall compound, a group of people came to the guest hall, after the guest was seated, several government soldiers sent tea, they left, and there was a short silence in the guest hall,

Gong Ao was not in a hurry to speak, he picked up the teacup first, took a sip silently, and then looked at Xiang Zhuang, and said with a smile: "The king of Eastern Chu came to Nanjun this time, it is better to stay for a while, and you can also observe the customs and customs here, since getting rid of the war with the Qin State, this place is very dilapidated, and if you want to regain prosperity, it is estimated that it will not take a few years, it will not work,"

Gongao smiled self-deprecatingly, Xiang Zhuang heard that Gongao was complaining to himself, but if you compare Jiangdong with here, he is indeed a lot better, at least in these years, Jiangdong has not experienced a major war, even Hengshan County, and Jiujiang County have been rid of the war for a long time, so the closer you are to Guanzhong, the easier it is to get closer to the forefront of the war.

But what Xiang Zhuang is thinking about is not how to get rid of the poverty brought about by the war, Liu Bang will kill out of Guanzhong at any time, and Zhang Han, Sima Xin and Dong Yi will not be Liu Bang's opponents at all, if Liu Bang is out of Chen Cang and occupies the relevant middle, his power can completely compete with Western Chu, at that time, Nanjun will directly face the Han State, this is the problem that Xiang Zhuang really cares about, thinking of this, Xiang Zhuang looked at Gongao with deep eyes, and said coldly: "King Linjiang, what you should consider at this time is not how to develop Nanjun, It's about how to defend against the coming new round of war,"

"A new round of war," Gong Ao looked at Xiang Zhuang in surprise, not knowing what his words portended.
